What does this PR do?

Type of change: new feature

Decompose supported LSTM nodes into primitive ONNX operations with recurrent state wiring, gate computations, and constant layouts. Validate supported LSTM attributes before expansion and fold eligible generated constants. Standalone use handles rank promotion; the ordered pipeline defers that work to its dedicated rank stages.

Part 9/17. Depends on part 8; merge from the bottom of the stack upward.

Source size: 1132 added lines. A self-contained recurrent decomposition: its gate/state expansion and constant folding are required together for a working intermediate implementation.

Usage

from modelopt.onnx.graph_surgery.dla_transforms.dla_decompose_lstm import _apply_decompose_lstm

# model is an onnx.ModelProto with the supported input pattern.
model = _apply_decompose_lstm(model)

This is an internal pass; the public pipeline is registered in part 16.

Testing

  • Validated on this branch's current commit on Windows CPU with Python 3.10 and ONNX 1.21.0: 13 passed, 1 warning.
  • Supported recurrent layouts and states, numerical output checks, and rejection of unsupported LSTM configurations.
  • Repository pre-commit hooks passed for this slice; the commit is signed off and its SSH signature was verified.
python -m pytest tests/unit/onnx/graph_surgery/dla_transforms/test_dla_decompose_lstm.py --noconftest -o addopts= -q --tb=short --durations=5

Tests ran with Hugging Face offline mode and without the repository-wide conftest/addopts; test-module fixtures still ran. GPU execution and DLA compilation were not run. The final stacked branch also passed the combined focused suite: 317 passed, 2 warnings.

Before your PR is "Ready for review"

  • Backward compatible: yes; this slice adds DLA-specific functionality.
  • Third-party code/new runtime dependencies: no new runtime dependency; contribution and security guidance reviewed.
  • Necessary tests: included for this slice, with focused synthetic fixtures.
  • Changelog: public feature entry follows in part 16.
  • Claude approval: pending for the current commit. Submitted as a draft.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for converting ONNX LSTM operations into forms compatible with DLA processing, including forward, reverse, and bidirectional configurations.
    • Supported models can include missing biases or initial states, which are handled automatically.
    • Conversion supports FP32 models with static, positive dimensions and opset 13 or newer. Unsupported LSTM configurations, such as peephole connections, custom activations, and sequence-length inputs, are rejected.

📝 Walkthrough

The change adds a pass that decomposes supported ONNX LSTM nodes into Conv-based subgraphs and registers it in the DLA transform pipeline. Tests compare forward, reverse, and bidirectional outputs with ONNX Runtime and check unsupported features and constant folding.

Changes: DLA LSTM Decomposition

Layer / File(s) Summary
Register and prepare LSTM inputs
modelopt/onnx/graph_surgery/make_dla_compatible.py, modelopt/onnx/graph_surgery/dla_transforms/dla_decompose_lstm.py
The DLA pipeline runs the decomposition pass. The pass validates supported LSTM settings and shapes, then promotes and prepares inputs, biases, and initial states.
Build direction-specific recurrence
modelopt/onnx/graph_surgery/dla_transforms/dla_decompose_lstm.py
The pass builds gate and state computations, processes forward and reverse timesteps, and combines outputs for bidirectional models.
Restore outputs and validate decomposition
modelopt/onnx/graph_surgery/dla_transforms/dla_decompose_lstm.py, tests/unit/onnx/graph_surgery/dla_transforms/test_dla_decompose_lstm.py
The pass restores output layouts, squeezes requested state outputs, folds eligible constants, and replaces LSTM nodes. Tests check parity, constant folding, downstream transpose handling, and rejection of unsupported features.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 950ff

Bidirectional LSTMs that omit the optional bias input will be decomposed into a graph that produces empty or mismatched reverse outputs. Standalone use of the pass on quantized weights shared with other nodes can produce an invalid model. Fix the bias default before merging; the shared-initializer issue and the test artifact writes are smaller follow-ups.

The title "[9/17] DLA LSTM decomposition" matches the main change. The PR adds dla_decompose_lstm.py, which expands ONNX LSTM nodes into Conv-based subgraphs, and registers DecomposeLstm in make_dla_compatible.py. The stack prefix "[9/17]" is a series marker and does not describe the code. The title names the primary change, though it does not mention the ONNX or Conv-based detail.

PASS. The PR changes only two modelopt Python files and one test file; no examples or dependency files changed. The reviewed diff contains no torch.load, numpy.load/np.load, trust_remote_code=True, eval(), exec(), or # nosec usage. No non-permissive PIP dependency was added.

Move the in-function imports to the top of the file.

infer_shapes is imported inside _expect_unsupported_lstm and test_lstm_decompose_ort_cpu_parity. onnxruntime is imported inside _run_ort. Neither import has a comment that names a circular-import or optional-dependency reason. The module already calls pytest.importorskip("onnxruntime") at Line 44, so onnxruntime can be bound there.

♻️ Proposed fix

Preserve shared DQ source initializers.

Standalone _apply_decompose_lstm promotes W/R and rewrites DQ-backed initializers. Both affected branches remove the source initializer before rewiring only the LSTM's DQ node. If another node also uses that initializer, its input becomes dangling and the transformed ONNX graph is invalid.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

The default zero bias breaks bidirectional LSTMs that omit B.

If B is absent, bw and br become (1, 1, 1, 1) initializers. For d == 2, split_direction_wise splits bw and br with split=[1, 1] on axis=2, but that axis has size 1.

_fold_lstm_constants folds this Split with np.split(arr, [1], axis=2). The reverse output has shape (1, 1, 0, 1). The reverse Add(add_bw_br, conv_x_w) then broadcasts dim 2 to 0. As a result, the reverse gates, Y, Y_h and Y_c are empty or do not match the declared shapes.

initial_h and initial_c already use a direction axis of size d. Give the zero biases the same direction axis. The tests always pass B, so they do not cover this path. Add a bidirectional parity case without B.

Remove the model-saving side effect from the unit test.

Each run of test_lstm_decompose_ort_cpu_parity writes ONNX files to <repo>/scratch_space/lstm_decompose_test_models/ and prints debug output. This adds untracked files to the working tree. It fails on a read-only checkout. It also adds a second, unchecked symbolic shape inference to every run. The assertions do not use these files.

Remove _save_lstm_test_pair and its call. If you need the artifacts for debugging, write them to pytest's tmp_path. Also remove the duplicated SPDX header at Line 16-18. _print_lstm_input_shapes is debug output with no assertion, so remove it too.

🧹 Proposed fix
     got = _run_ort(dec, feeds)
-    _save_lstm_test_pair(model, dec, direction)
     _assert_outputs_match(ref, got)

Also applies to: 277-277

Review comment at
@tests/unit/onnx/graph_surgery/dla_transforms/test_dla_decompose_lstm.py around
lines 46 - 70:
Remove the `_save_lstm_test_pair` helper and its call from
`test_lstm_decompose_ort_cpu_parity` so the test no longer writes model
artifacts or runs extra shape inference; remove `_print_lstm_input_shapes` and
its call because it only emits debug output, and delete the duplicated SPDX
header.
