What does this PR do?

Type of change: new feature

Add a standalone DLA cleanup pass for eligible input promotion, Squeeze/Unsqueeze replacement, reshape-chain cleanup, output adapters, constant folding, lossless Cast-chain cleanup, and unused initializer removal.

Rank promotion now follows known elementwise paths and preserves rank-sensitive consumers, including consumers behind other elementwise nodes. A shared input can still be promoted on a safe branch while another branch retains its original rank. When promotion reaches a graph output, an opset-compatible Squeeze restores the declared output rank while interior consumers keep their 4D tensors. The combined pass retains the original output descriptors through later cleanup stages. Analysis is computed lazily once per stage and stops propagating restrictions when broadcasting already fixes the output rank at 4D. Gather and GQA boundary exceptions are retained. PRelu slopes and Clip control inputs retain their original ranks to respect their broadcasting constraints.

Generated tensor, initializer and node names use the existing graph cache's name allocator. Graph-output adapters preserve declared ranks and values; non-squeezable output reshapes reach exactly 4D and squeeze every prepended axis. Shape fallback does not guess dimensions for unresolved explicit Squeeze axes; omitted axes retain their unit-dimension-removal fallback. The fallback honors legacy Squeeze axes attributes and normalizes negative Unsqueeze axes against the output rank. Generated Squeeze/Unsqueeze nodes use axes attributes below opset 13 and axes inputs on newer models, based on the actual default-domain import. The empty-domain import takes precedence; an ai.onnx import is used only when the empty-domain import is absent. Identity output Reshapes are retained to avoid the remove-all-unit-dimensions behavior of empty-axes Squeeze in ORT. Unsqueeze axes controls are excluded from data-input promotion. Lossless Cast-chain cleanup preserves all final Cast attributes, including float8 saturation and rounding, and leaves custom-domain operations untouched. Shape-operation matching and rank-safety analysis likewise keep custom or overloaded operations opaque, even when they reuse standard operation names. Subgraph-captured values remain defined across noop removal, Reshape/Cast chain collapse and canonical Unsqueeze cleanup. Capture collection reuses the existing scope-aware helper and also handles a name used as both a direct control input and a lexical capture. Test inference failures are surfaced, and all introduced functions have docstrings.

Part 3/17. Depends on PR2 #2939; review against that branch and merge the stack from the bottom upward. This remains a draft.

Source size: 1040 added lines. This is the existing self-contained cleanup slice; splitting its cooperating stages would require a separate implementation refactor.

Usage

from modelopt.onnx.graph_surgery.dla_transforms.dla_graph_cleanup import _apply_graph_cleanup

# model is an onnx.ModelProto with a supported input pattern.
model = _apply_graph_cleanup(model)

This is an internal pass. Public pipeline integration follows in part 16; operation-specific rank conversions may still be needed for a model.

Testing

  • Windows CPU, Python 3.10, ONNX 1.21.0: 106 cleanup tests and 202 tests on this slice passed, including the inherited helper tests and existing GQA/DQ numerical regressions.
  • 71 regression cases fail against the untouched pre-fix source and pass with the fix. They cover direct/transitive rank-sensitive consumers, mixed shared-input branches, anonymous/duplicate/existing names, graph-output signatures, true 4D output padding, selected positive/negative Squeeze axes, generated Cast-name collisions, dynamic axes controls, multi-axis Unsqueeze layouts, float8 saturation/rounding, custom-domain Cast semantics, control-flow captures, PRelu slope broadcasting, legacy/modern axes syntax, import order, identity-output preservation, alias imports, custom shape-function semantics, unresolved versus omitted Squeeze axes, and scalar/1D/2D/3D output boundaries with 4D interiors.
  • Full ONNX checking and real ORT execution verify graph validity and values. ONNX ReferenceEvaluator covers float8 and custom-function semantics without requiring an accelerator. An existing broadcast test also verifies that valid promotion remains enabled before an already-4D Transpose input.
  • Alias-only imports are tested as an ORT runtime compatibility case: ONNX 1.21 already rejects that input format. Conforming fixtures retain full native checker coverage.
  • The assertion-free GQA fixture was removed after confirming inference reduced it to the already-covered 3D-to-4D bridge case. The meaningful bridge regression remains.
  • All new cleanup test calls ran below one second locally. The combined focused suite on the final rebased integration tip passed 415 tests.
  • The cached rank guard and capture scan on synthetic 10,000/20,000-node pointwise paths took 0.03621/0.071178 seconds with 5.56/13.15 MiB additional peak RSS in isolated processes. These are single-run CPU observations using 2-ms sampling and native Windows peak working set.
  • Output-adapter insertion plus cache refresh on 10,000/20,000-node paths with one output took 0.01979/0.040483 seconds and 1.89/4.45 MiB additional peak RSS. With 20,000 nodes and 64 outputs it took 0.041359 seconds and 5.38 MiB. These are single-run CPU observations using the same sampling method; every resulting graph passed the full ONNX checker. Only output metadata is copied.
  • Pre-commit hooks passed; every commit in the stack's branch ranges is signed off and SSH-signed. No shared converter or existing public surgery implementation changed.
python -m pytest tests/unit/onnx/graph_surgery tests/unit/onnx/test_gqa_graph_surgery.py tests/unit/onnx/quantization/test_dq_transpose_surgery.py --noconftest -o addopts= -q --tb=short --durations=8

Tests used Hugging Face offline mode, with repository-wide conftest/addopts disabled while module fixtures and numerical inference ran. GPU execution and DLA compilation were not run.

Before your PR is "Ready for review"

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements
    • DLA ONNX models now handle eligible input and output shape transformations more consistently, preserving output names and behavior.
    • Redundant reshape operations and eligible squeeze/unsqueeze operations are simplified. Eligible constants and safe cast chains are also simplified, and unused initializers are removed.
    • Rank-sensitive, unsupported, and otherwise ineligible cases remain unchanged to help preserve model behavior.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "[3/17] Standalone DLA graph cleanup" names the main change: a new standalone DLA graph cleanup pass (dla_graph_cleanup.py) with its unit test suite. The changeset adds the cleanup pipeline covering Squeeze/Unsqueeze replacement, input promotion, reshape cleanup, constant folding, Cast-chain collapsing, and unused-initializer removal, and the PR objectives describe the same pass. The "[3/17]" prefix is a stack-position marker rather than a description of the change, and the title does not name the individual transforms. The title is specific enough for a reviewer scanning history to identify the primary change.

Full details: Security Anti-Patterns

Explanation

PASS. The pull request changes only one implementation module and one test module. The changed Python files contain no torch.load, numpy.load/np.load, allow_pickle=True, trust_remote_code=True, eval(), exec(), or # nosec usage. No pyproject.toml or requirements.txt files changed, so no new PIP dependency licensing issue is introduced.

Add assertions to test_unsqueeze_after_gqa_4d_output_not_skipped or remove it.

The test has no assertions. The docstring says it verifies that the GQA skip rule does not fire. The inline comment admits that the 5-D output path skips the node anyway. As written, the test only checks that the transform does not raise an exception.

To test the stated behavior, use an Unsqueeze output that is at most 4-D. Then assert that the node was replaced by a Reshape. Otherwise delete the test.

As per path instructions: "checked-in tests should be lean and document expected behavior, protect against regressions".

Unsqueeze replacements, and preserve the existing Gather and GroupQueryAttention
exceptions.
- Around line 345-350: Update the generated initializer names in the
Reshape-shape creation paths to use cache.unique_name, with a nonempty node-name
fallback, so they are unique against existing graph tensors and other generated
initializers. Apply this to rs_name, the initializer created for each chain
tail, and the initializer created from c_node; preserve each path’s existing
name suffix and shape behavior.

Preserved control-flow captures across DLA cleanup, with six numerical ONNX/ORT regressions covering noop Reshapes, intermediate/tail chain values, Cast chains, canonical Unsqueeze, and direct-control/capture overlap. All introduced functions have docstrings. Focused tests and pre-commit checks passed, and the integration suite was rerun after restacking. This PR remains a draft.

Protected PRelu slope ranks during DLA cleanup using one condition in the existing sensitivity guard. Three numerical regression cases fail before the fix and pass afterward. Focused tests, docstring audit and pre-commit checks passed; integration validation was repeated after restacking. This PR remains a draft.

Remove the duplicate header and unused constant, and update the module docstring.

  • Lines 16-19 repeat the SPDX header.
  • _SAVED_MODELS_DIR points at a local scratch_space directory, and no test uses it. _REPO_ROOT and the Path import exist only for this constant.
  • The docstring describes five steps in a different order. _apply_graph_cleanup runs seven stages. The stages include Squeeze/Unsqueeze replacement before input canonicalization, the graph-output Reshape adapter, and Cast-chain cleanup.

Remove the dead lines and update the docstring to the current stage list.

Made the three DLA cleanup axes builders opset-aware, preserved identity Reshape outputs, and corrected the verified test-module documentation nitpick. All introduced functions have docstrings. Checker/ORT regressions cover legacy and modern opsets and actual default-domain selection. Focused tests and hooks passed; integration validation was repeated after restacking. This PR remains a draft.

Preserved ORT alias-only import compatibility without changing empty-domain precedence. A related diff review also found that custom shape functions were being rewritten by operator name alone; domain/overload guards now retain their semantics, backed by six numerical local-function regressions. All introduced functions have docstrings, hooks and focused tests passed, and integration validation was repeated after restacking. This PR remains a draft.

Kept Squeeze nodes with unresolved explicit axes unchanged while preserving the omitted-axes fallback. The parameterized checker/ORT regression fails without the guard and passes with it, including two runtime axes choices. All introduced functions have docstrings, hooks and focused tests passed, and final integration validation was repeated after restacking. This PR remains a draft.

Keep graph outputs below rank 4 rank-sensitive during input promotion.

_rank_sensitive_consumers starts with an empty sensitive_values set, and graph outputs are never added to it. A rank-agnostic node that writes a graph output therefore does not block promotion of its input. For example, X[2,3,4] → Relu → Y[2,3,4] can promote X to 4-D. The graph output Y then changes rank, while the PR's stated graph-output signature preservation expects Y to keep its declared shape.

Seed the analysis with the graph outputs that are below rank 4:

🐛 Proposed fix
-    sensitive_values: set[str] = set()
+    # Graph outputs below rank 4 keep their declared rank, so their producers must stay rank-sensitive.
+    sensitive_values: set[str] = {
+        o.name for o in graph.output if len(cache.get_shape(o.name) or []) < 4
+    }
     sensitive_edges: set[tuple[int, int]] = set()

With this seed, Relu is no longer rank-agnostic for its output Y, so X stays unpromoted. test_canonicalize_3d_input_unsqueeze_added must then change with the fix. Its Unsqueeze count and Relu redirection assertions (lines 18-25) no longer hold. The Y assertion on line 148 should compare against expected["Y"] directly, not against a reshaped 4-D value.

Restored the original output descriptors and values with boundary Squeeze adapters after interior promotion. Interior consumers retain their 4D tensors. Ten end-to-end checker/ORT cases fail against the previous head and pass afterward; they cover opsets 12/17, unit-length and 1D/2D/3D outputs, scalar results after intermediary promotion, and a shared input whose Transpose branch retains its original rank. The tests require both unchanged output signatures and actual 4D interior promotion.

@mgohil-png Source inspection confirms that the boundary-adapter approach addresses this finding without blocking interior promotion. _restore_promoted_graph_outputs retains promoted tensors for interior consumers and uses explicit leading-axis Squeeze adapters to restore graph outputs.

The ten regression cases check output descriptors and ORT values across opsets 12/17. The branch cases also require 4D interior promotion and preserve the original-rank Transpose input. My proposed output-sensitivity seed is not needed with this approach.

I did not execute the tests, so I have not independently confirmed the reported pass/fail results. AGENTS.md prohibits agent thread resolution, so I leave closure to a human reviewer.
