### What does this PR do? Chad's Agent **Draft: full-model export correctness is blocked by native FP8 expert scaling.** Type of change: Bug fix, documentation, tests. The MiniMax M2.7 expert-only recipe selects `block_sparse_moe.experts` but misses the modern Transformers `mlp.experts` layout, leaving no weight quantizers enabled. Add the modern patterns while retaining legacy support. Regression tests cover linear and fused experts, expert W4A4 settings, exclusions, and unchanged parameters. Correct the source-dtype description. Safetensors headers at `MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.7` revision `d494266a4affc0d2995ba1fa35c8481cbd84294b` show all 248 attention projection weights stored as FP8 E4M3, all 62 router gate weights and correction biases as FP32, and `lm_head.weight` as BF16. The config's BF16 default is not every tensor's dtype. These are checkpoint storage dtypes; excluding modules from this recipe does not guarantee their runtime/export dtype. ### Root cause: legacy remote code versus native Transformers This is not a naming change introduced by Transformers 5.18. Native MiniMax-M2 support landed on January 9, 2026 in [Transformers PR #42028](huggingface/transformers#42028) ([commit `7a2bf25f36`](huggingface/transformers@7a2bf25)) and shipped in v5.0.0, already using `mlp.experts` and fused expert tensors. The original production setup recorded Transformers 4.57.1 and the legacy remote-code implementation; this reproduction uses native Transformers 5.18.0. The environment's exact upgrade date is unknown. The vendor checkpoint stores separate expert projections: ```text model.layers.<layer>.block_sparse_moe.experts.<expert>.w1.weight # gate model.layers.<layer>.block_sparse_moe.experts.<expert>.w3.weight # up model.layers.<layer>.block_sparse_moe.experts.<expert>.w2.weight # down ``` Native Transformers renames `block_sparse_moe` to `mlp`, stacks experts, and concatenates gate/up projections: ```text model.layers.<layer>.mlp.experts.gate_up_proj # stacked w1+w3 model.layers.<layer>.mlp.experts.down_proj # stacked w2 ``` Recipe selectors match the loaded module/quantizer names, not the checkpoint keys. Therefore the legacy-only recipe misses native expert quantizers. Both selector families are retained to support both loading implementations; the nonmatching family is a no-op. Two distinct issues are involved: the recipe's missing native selectors cause the reported guard failure; enabling them exposes a separate native `FP8Experts` inverse-scale omission in the tested ModelOpt calibration/export path. The published `nvidia/MiniMax-M2.7-NVFP4` checkpoint is not affected by this issue: it was produced with an older Transformers version that did not surface it. ### Usage Existing `--recipe modelopt_recipes/models/MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.7/ptq/nvfp4_experts_only-kv_fp8_cast.yaml` commands need no changes. ### Testing - Original recipe with the new regression tests: 2 modern-layout failures, 2 legacy-layout passes. - Metadata-only full-model check with ModelOpt 0.48.0rc0 and Transformers 5.18: fixed recipe enables 31,744 fused expert weight quantizers and 124 expert input quantizers; original recipe enables zero expert weight quantizers. The 124 KV quantizers are unchanged. - Fixed recipe after rebase: `pytest tests/unit/recipe` — 509 passed. - `pre-commit run --files <three changed files>` and `git diff --check` passed. - Full-model GB300 original recipe: reproduced the enabled-weight guard failure with the exact command and pinned environment. - Fixed recipe: completed all 64 calibration batches (512 samples, batch size 8, 10m27s), post-calibration preview, and 14-shard export; `hf_ptq.py` exited 0. All 47,616 expert projection weights have packed NVFP4 storage and FP8 block scales. - **Export validation failed:** nine projection samples from expert 0 in layers 0/30/61 have relative L2 error 1,989–4,474 against the dequantized FP8 source. ModelOpt's own NVFP4 dequantizer confirms that they instead approximate raw FP8 stored values (about 9% error); multiplying by the original FP8 inverse scales restores that approximately 9% error. Native expert inverse scales were omitted. The exporter also warns that fused `gate_up_proj_scale_inv` prevents reverse weight conversion. - All GitHub CI checks passed (27 successful, 2 skipped). ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Backward compatible: ✅ - Copied code or new PIP dependency: N/A - Necessary tests: ✅ - Changelog: N/A; unreleased recipe correction. - Claude approval: N/A; not requested. ### Additional Information Full-model validation uses PyTorch 26.08, ModelOpt 0.48.0rc0, Transformers 5.18.0, compressed-tensors 0.19.0, and kernels 0.17.0. Model and CNN/DailyMail revisions are pinned; only the recipe changes between runs. No weight-quantization check bypass is used. The recipe selectors are necessary but insufficient for a valid export with this environment. ModelOpt's generic fused-expert wrapper handles `FP8Experts` structurally, but its calibration/export weight path needs the native FP8 inverse scales. Completing that backend support changes library code; it cannot be demonstrated by changing only this recipe. Keep this PR in draft until that blocker is resolved. The exported checkpoint is not ready for serving or accuracy evaluation.  ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * The MiniMax-M2.7 quantization recipe now supports expert layers in both `block_sparse_moe` and `mlp` layouts, including fused experts. * NVFP4 quantization is now configured for experts in either layout. Attention weights retain their source FP8 format, router weights remain FP32, and LM-head weights remain BF16. * **Documentation** * Updated the recipe description to clarify supported expert layouts and the formats retained for attention, router, and LM-head weights.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix `import modelopt.torch` fails on a base install (`pip install nvidia-modelopt`, no extras), although the [installation docs](https://nvidia.github.io/Model-Optimizer/getting_started/_installation_for_Linux.html) state that the base install provides the `modelopt.torch` requirements. Reproduced with the released 0.47.0 in a fresh venv containing only `torch` and `nvidia-modelopt==0.47.0`: ``` >>> import modelopt.torch.quantization ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests' # after `pip install requests`: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'huggingface_hub' ``` Root cause: two modules that `modelopt.torch` always imports have module-scope imports of packages that are not base dependencies: - `modelopt/torch/utils/dataset_utils.py` imports `requests` (since #997). It is only used in `download_hf_dataset_as_jsonl`, which already imports `datasets` and `huggingface_hub` locally. `requests` is not declared anywhere; it was only present transitively. - `modelopt/torch/opt/plugins/huggingface.py` imports `huggingface_hub` (since #975). `modelopt/torch/opt/__init__.py` imports this plugin under `import_plugin("huggingface")`, but `opt/plugins/__init__.py` imports it unconditionally, and `unified_export_hf.py` imports from it directly. It is only used in `_get_modelopt_state_path`. The fix moves each import into the only function that uses it. CI did not catch this because every test environment installs extras that bring both packages in, so the new `tests/unit/torch/test_import.py` imports `modelopt.torch` in a subprocess with the `[hf]` extra's modules (plus `requests`) made unavailable. Out of scope: `modelopt.torch.export` (imports `huggingface_hub` deliberately via `utils/plugins/hf_checkpoint_utils.py`, #2427) and `modelopt.torch.puzzletron` (has its own `[puzzletron]` extra) still need their optional dependencies. ### Usage No API changes. ### Testing - Fresh venv with only CPU `torch` and this branch installed (`pip install -e .`, base dependencies only): `import modelopt.torch` and `modelopt.torch.{opt,quantization,sparsity,distill,nas,prune,speculative,peft,trace,utils,fastgen,models}` all import; before the change every one failed with the `ModuleNotFoundError` above. - `tests/unit/torch/test_import.py` fails on `main` (`import of requests halted; None in sys.modules`) and passes with this change. - `pytest tests/unit/torch/utils/test_dataset_utils.py tests/unit/torch/opt tests/unit/torch/test_import.py`: 122 passed (with `datasets` installed, `test_dataset_utils.py`: 70 passed). - `pre-commit run` on the changed files: all hooks pass. Found while setting up ModelOpt with pip-only dependencies on a Jetson AGX Thor. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" Make sure you read and follow [Contributor guidelines](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) and your commits are signed (`git commit -s -S`).

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix Fix layerwise MoE export copying already-quantized fused expert tensors back from the source checkpoint as BF16 weights. Those copies incorrectly add the routed expert container to `exclude_modules`, causing vLLM to select an unquantized MoE backend and fail loading `w2_input_scale`. Snapshot complete source-key accounting at exporter binding, before per-layer packing removes the original fused parameters. Reuse the snapshot, including an empty result, for that source checkpoint. Only names are retained; genuinely unmodeled auxiliary weights still carry over. Whole-model export is unchanged. ### Usage No API changes. Re-export affected checkpoints from the original source using the existing layerwise recipe. ### Testing - 186 focused CPU tests passed across model loading, reverse conversion, unified export, and layerwise calibration/resume (Transformers 5.18.0). - Real tiny native Qwen3.5-MoE VLM max calibration and checkpoint export with `general/ptq/nvfp4_experts_only-kv_fp8_layerwise_export`, compared with whole-model export, with and without an auxiliary source weight: passed. Packed expert weights/scales remain present, original fused BF16 weights are absent, and expert containers are not excluded. The auxiliary weight remains present and excluded. - Extended existing `test_moe_export_matches` with source provenance and the public export API. Both cases passed in a local one-layer CPU adaptation; both failed on the duplicate fused expert tensors when the snapshot lookup was reverted. The committed GPU test retains its original two-layer model and quantization configuration. - Meta-model binding smoke: 40 decoder layers, 256 experts/layer, 636 source keys; all parameters remained on meta and the retained source-key snapshot was empty. Full binding took 2.99 s and peaked at 12.48 MiB of Python-tracked allocations. This is a metadata probe, not a full-size PTQ/GPU memory benchmark. - Applicable pre-commit hooks and `git diff --check`: passed. - Not run: unadapted CUDA tests, full Qwen3.5-35B-A3B PTQ, or vLLM serving. GPU launcher MCP tools are unavailable in this session. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" Contributor guidelines and security coding practices reviewed. Commit `b139a70eb` is signed and signed off; its GPG signature was verified before publishing. - Is this change backward compatible?: Yes. - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A; neither. - Did you write any new necessary tests?: Yes; extended the existing MoE export comparison to cover empty accounting and genuine auxiliary carry-over. - Did you update Changelog?: N/A; layerwise export is new in the unreleased 0.48 cycle. - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: No; pending review. ### Additional Information NVBug 6954041.

…ns (#2911) Type of change: Bug fix The default PTQ exclusions (`configs/ptq/units/default_disabled_quantizers`, imported by the `general/ptq/*` recipes and `mtq.*_CFG` presets) disable multi-token-prediction layers with `mtp.*`, which only matches an MTP block at the model root (HF checkpoints, Megatron LLMs). Megatron vision-language models nest it under the language model (`language_model.mtp.layers.0...`), so their MTP layers were quantized. For Qwen3.5/3.6 VLMs quantized with `examples/megatron_bridge/quantize.py` and a general recipe, `export_quantized_megatron_to_hf.py --vllm_fakequant_export` then refuses the checkpoint ("MTP quantization is not supported by vLLM fakequant export/reload"). The pattern is now `*mtp.*`, matching the model-specific recipes that already use `*mtp*`. Models whose MTP block was nested and previously quantized by a general recipe now keep it in BF16, which is what the exclusion intends. Recipes that quantize MTP on purpose (e.g. the Nemotron 3.5 Super ones) do not import this unit after their MTP entries, so they are unaffected. No API change. - New `tests/unit/recipe/test_presets.py::test_default_exclusions_disable_mtp_at_any_depth`: with `general/ptq/fp8_default-kv_fp8`, MTP quantizers at the root and under `language_model.` are disabled and decoder quantizers stay enabled; fails without the change. - `tests/unit/recipe`: 492 passed. - Found while validating vLLM fake-quant export of Qwen3.6-35B-A3B (#2889): the default `nvfp4_default-kv_fp8` checkpoint was refused on `language_model.mtp.layers.0.eh_proj.input_quantizer`. - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ (nested MTP layers that a general recipe used to quantize now stay in BF16, as the exclusion intends) - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: ✅ - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ Related to #2889 (vLLM fake-quant export through Megatron-Bridge). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)   * **Bug Fixes** * Corrected default post-training quantization recipes for Megatron vision-language models so MTP layers remain unquantized consistently, including nested language-model layers. * Preserved quantization behavior for unrelated decoder projection layers. * Added regression coverage to verify both root-level and nested MTP exclusions in the default FP8 recipe. * **Documentation** * Added a changelog entry for the 0.49.0 bug fix.

) Type of change: Bug fix `export_hf_ckpt.py` cannot restore the checkpoint written by the weight-sparsity `finetune.py`. Every parameter fails with: ``` While copying the parameter named "model.embed_tokens.weight" ... an exception occurred : ('aten.copy_.default got mixed torch.Tensor and DTensor, need to convert all torch.Tensor to DTensor before calling distributed operators!',) ``` **Root cause.** Transformers 5 builds the Trainer's FSDP plugin with `fsdp_config.get("version", 2)`, so `launch_finetune.sh`'s `--fsdp 'full_shard auto_wrap'` now runs FSDP2. Under FSDP2, `model.state_dict()` returns sharded DTensors. `get_model_state_dict()` in `finetune.py` only moved them to CPU, so `finetuned_modelopt_state.pth` held rank 0's DTensor shards. Restoring those into the unsharded model in `export_hf_ckpt.py` fails. This affects every `--sparsity_fmt`, not only `sparse_magnitude`. **Fix.** Gather the full state dict with `torch.distributed.checkpoint.state_dict.get_model_state_dict(..., StateDictOptions(full_state_dict=True, cpu_offload=True))`, the same pattern as `examples/speculative_decoding/eagle_utils.py`. The function is looked up at call time, so ModelOpt's `DynamicModule`-aware patch from `modelopt/torch/opt/_hooks.py` applies. On a sparsified FSDP2 model, the patched and unpatched gathers gave identical tensors. The existing finetune example test now also runs `export_hf_ckpt.py` on the finetuned checkpoint. Before this PR, the test never restored that checkpoint, so CI missed the bug. Checkpoints written by the old `finetune.py` under FSDP2 hold only rank 0's shards and cannot be recovered. Users need to re-run finetuning. No API change. The documented flow now works end to end: ```bash bash launch_finetune.sh ... --output_dir $FT_DIR python export_hf_ckpt.py ... --modelopt_restore_path $FT_DIR/finetuned_modelopt_state.pth ``` Run locally on 2x RTX A6000 with torch 2.9.1, transformers 5.12.1 (the NVBug version), and accelerate 1.15.0: - `pytest tests/examples/llm_sparsity/weight_sparsity/test_llama_sparsify.py -k finetune`, covering `test_llama_sparsity_finetune` (1 GPU) and `test_llama_sparsity_finetune_multi_gpu` (2 GPU). Both pass with the fix. With only `finetune.py` reverted to `main`, both fail at the new export step with the NVBug's `got mixed torch.Tensor and DTensor` error. - In a standalone FSDP2 repro (tiny Llama, `sparse_magnitude`, 2 ranks), the restored weights keep 2:4 sparsity (at most 2 nonzeros per group of 4). - `pre-commit run` on the changed files passes.

Type of change: ? Bug fix Exporting Qwen-Image FP8 with --quantize-mha leaves internal {q,k,v}_bmm_quantizer._amax buffers in the HF checkpoint, including buffers from disabled quantizers. TRT-LLM rejects these unexpected keys. Hide attention quantizers during HF export by default, except for FLUX.1, which retains enabled Q/K/V quantizers for compatibility with the static FP8 attention path in [NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM#18396](NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM#18396). An explicit option overrides this default. Disabled attention quantizers are always omitted, and quantizers are restored on the live model after saving. Infer KV-cache metadata only for Transformers components. Diffusion components, including the native LTX-2 transformer, no longer emit KV-cache quantization metadata. Default exports omit attention quantizer state for Qwen-Image and other diffusion components, while FLUX.1 retains enabled Q/K/V quantizers without an additional flag: ```python export_hf_checkpoint(pipe, export_dir="./hf_ckpt") ``` Explicitly retain enabled Q/K/V quantizers for a compatible runtime: ```python export_hf_checkpoint( pipe, export_dir="./hf_ckpt", export_attention_quantizers=True, ) ``` Set export_attention_quantizers=False to omit attention quantizers, including for FLUX.1. Equivalent diffusers CLI option: ```sh --extra-param export_attention_quantizers=true --extra-param export_attention_quantizers=false ``` - 93 focused export and quantization-config tests passed. - Regression cases run real FP8 calibration and sharded safetensors export with tiny Qwen-Image and FLUX models. They verify clean Qwen exports, FLUX’s default retention of enabled Q/K/V scales, explicit overrides, omission of disabled buffers, and restoration of live quantizers. - Additional coverage verifies that the native diffusion save path used by LTX-2 omits KV-cache metadata while a real Transformers model retains it. This exercises the native export interface, not a full LTX-2 model. - Regression tests reproduce the original buffer leak. The FLUX-default and native-diffusion metadata checks also fail against the implementation before the review fixes. - Pre-commit checks passed. - One optional ONNX example suite was skipped during earlier validation because onnx_graphsurgeon was absent. - Full B100/TRT-LLM generation and full LTX-2 deployment were not run; the test host has no usable GPU.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix Remove the obsolete `IExecutionContext.all_shape_inputs_specified` assertion that aborts TensorRT inference initialization with `AttributeError` on TensorRT 11. TensorRT 10.16 documents that this legacy check does not work with name-based APIs such as `set_input_shape()` and recommends `infer_shapes()`. NVIDIA's [TensorRT 11 migration reference](https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/tensorrt/11.4.0/api/migration/tensorrt-10x-to-11x-c-api-reference.html) lists the corresponding `allInputShapesSpecified()` API as "Removed (always true)". The change deletes only this three-line assertion. Existing name-based `infer_shapes()` validation, including its `io_shapes == {}` condition, is preserved. Input/output allocation, profile selection, inference execution, public APIs and dependency requirements are unchanged. ### Usage No new API or flag. Existing TensorRT deployment and evaluation calls continue to use the same entry points and optional `io_shapes` argument. ### Testing - A development-only CPU protocol probe executes the production initializer with simulated TensorRT binding interfaces and explicit I/O shapes. Before the change, the absent-property case reproduces the reported `AttributeError`, while the legacy-property control passes. After the change, both cases pass and retain the same binding/profile calls. This validates the Python interface regression, not native TensorRT/CUDA execution; the scaffolding is not included in this PR. - All applicable pre-commit hooks passed for the changed file, including Ruff, formatting, mypy, license checks and Bandit. `git diff --check` and Python syntax parsing passed. - Native TensorRT 10.16/11.x GPU inference and baseline/FP8/INT8 accuracy evaluation were not run on the development Mac, which has no TensorRT installation or CUDA device. Run the existing deployment runtime tests and affected ONNX evaluation cases on the final commit before merge. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: API-contract review supports removing the obsolete check for TensorRT 10.16/11.x; no public signature or existing shape-inference condition changes. Native regression validation is pending. - Copied third-party code or new PIP dependency: none. - Necessary tests: existing TensorRT compile/profile tests are retained. Development-only protocol regression checks passed; no mock/scaffolding tests are added to CI. - Changelog: not added; this addresses the TensorRT 11 compatibility issue reported during the current release-candidate testing. - Claude approval: not obtained. ### Additional Information Refs: bug/6915422 The commit includes DCO sign-off and an SSH signature verified locally. GitHub reports `unknown_key` because the signing public key is not registered on the account. Target: `main`, with `cherry-pick-0.48.0`. Keep as Draft pending native validation of the final commit.

…2929) ### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix. Exporting a quantized Wan2.1 I2V transformer can report success even though the checkpoint fails to load because its QKV scales differ. The export probe supplies text context without the image features required by the model. Its forward pass fails on the empty image-attention path, and the exporter catches the exception and skips QKV scale fusion. Supply image features for image-conditioned `WanTransformer3DModel` configurations, retaining the 512-token text context expected by attention. Match the image projection's compute dtype using its bias, including when weights are packed, and account for first/last-frame positional embeddings. Reuse the existing strict fusion mode so a failed image-conditioned Wan probe raises instead of silently skipping fusion. This fixes the existing export adapter. It does not establish end-to-end support for every Wan variant. Configurations without `image_dim` retain their current probe inputs and error handling. Strict mode raises on a probe exception; it does not validate fusion-group coverage or generation quality. ### Usage No new API or flags. Use the existing `export_hf_checkpoint` call after quantization/calibration with the model's image-conditioned pipeline. ### Testing [Jenkins #57](http://dlswqa-nas:18880/job/modelopt_release_testing_v1/57/) completed successfully: **3 passed, 0 failed, 0 skipped** on one B100 GPU, using `nvcr.io/nvidia/tensorrt-llm/release:1.4.0rc0`, Diffusers 0.40.0, and Transformers 5.5.4. | Model | NVFP4 export and TensorRT-LLM deployment | QKV groups fused | | --- | --- | --- | | Wan2.1 I2V 14B 480P | Passed | 102 | | Wan2.1 I2V 14B 720P | Passed | 102 | | Wan2.2 I2V A14B | Passed for both transformer components | 68 per component | - Reused `TestDiffusersQuantization_hf_deployment::test_quantization_export_hf` from QA revision `6df5ab7d1c4c14da569cd914b764ff6d1061b336`. Each component was calibrated with 8 seeds, 20 denoising steps and 81 frames, then compressed and exported to a fresh checkpoint. TensorRT-LLM loaded the exported checkpoint, generated video, and passed shape/frame-count and saved-video decoding checks. - Audited archived static NVFP4 configuration and scale-tensor presence. The existing 720P/A14B cases assert scale completeness; the 480P archive was additionally checked because its case lacks that assertion: all 408 non-ignored packed Linear modules have `weight_scale`, `weight_scale_2`, and `input_scale`. A14B evidence confirms static quantization routing and execution of both noise-stage transformers. - The build checked out and installed ModelOpt `9d67af8087cebb1e3f945cc7db82c4c7e1d8bee3`. The current PR preserves the tested export implementation: follow-up edits restore copyright/comments and add CPU regression coverage, while the rebase adds an unrelated ONNX graph-surgery change. The fix commit is equivalent under `git range-diff`; the new test-only commit was validated locally, not rerun on the GPU. - All applicable pre-commit hooks passed, including Ruff, mypy, license checks, and Bandit. - Added one parameterized CPU regression, `test_wan_dummy_inputs_support_qkv_fusion[i2v/flf2v]`, using the existing tiny Wan helper. It checks image/text input shapes, runs real calibration and the strict default dummy forward, and verifies input/weight amax unification for self-attention QKV, text cross-attention KV, and image cross-attention KV. Per-tensor INT8 exercises real fusion on CPU; FP8 is excluded because its export format skips fusion. Distinct initial amax values prevent a skipped fusion from passing. - Local validation on Windows (Python 3.12.10, CPU PyTorch 2.12.0): **26 passed, 3 deselected** in `tests/unit/torch/export/test_export_diffusers.py`. The three deselected Transformers KV-metadata cases were previously confirmed to fail before export on both this branch and the unpatched baseline because the quantization plugin cannot import without Triton. Both new parameters pass in under one second each, and both fail when the dummy-input builder is reverted to the pre-fix implementation. - The CPU regression checks dummy inputs, forward execution, and amax fusion; it does not exercise compressed NVFP4 scale handling. Jenkins #57 provides the GPU NVFP4 export/deployment evidence above. These results do not assess visual quality, and FLF2V was not GPU-tested. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: API and checkpoint formats are unchanged. A failed image-conditioned Wan probe intentionally raises instead of warning and skipping fusion. Standard Diffusers Wan image embedders have the projection bias used for the compute dtype (checked in v0.33.0, v0.35.1, and v0.40.0). The existing input builder already dispatches Wan subclasses through `isinstance`; subclasses that replace the image embedder or remove that bias can now fail explicitly. This PR does not establish support for arbitrary custom subclasses, and the public exporter has no custom-probe override. - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`?: N/A; neither was added. - Did you write any new necessary tests?: Yes; one parameterized CPU regression covers I2V and FLF2V dummy inputs and actual QKV amax fusion. Reused existing GPU export/deployment cases for the three Wan I2V configurations. - Did you update Changelog?: N/A; reported against 0.48.0rc1, with no released-version regression established. - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: No approval; the automated review comments from cjluo-nv are addressed with the CPU regression and compatibility clarification. ### Additional Information Tracks [NVBug 6959002](https://nvbugspro.nvidia.com/bug/6959002).   ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Added support for exporting Wan image-to-video models with image conditioning, including configurations with custom positional embedding lengths. Image-conditioned exports now include the required image and text inputs. * **Bug Fixes** * Improved export reliability for image-conditioned Wan models by requiring attention fusion checks to succeed. Other model components retain their existing export behavior.  --------- Signed-off-by: yingguo-trt <244492186+yingguo-trt@users.noreply.github.com> Signed-off-by: Rohan Joshi <rohjoshi@nvidia.com>

GitHub moved `ubuntu-latest` to Ubuntu 26.04 at about 00:45 UTC on 2026-10-23, and the hosted jobs that install torch into a nox/uv environment fail on it, so every pull request is red: | job (all attempts, from the run logs) | on ubuntu-24.04, until 10-23 00:xx UTC | on ubuntu-26.04, since 00:46 UTC | |---|---|---| | `linux` (`unit_tests.yml`) | 210 of 210 passed | 0 of 23 passed | | `build-docs` (`pages.yml`) | all passed | 0 of 25 passed | The failure, in "Run unit tests" and in the docs build alike, while uv installs torch 2.14.1: ``` warning: Failed to hardlink files; falling back to full copy. error: Failed to install: torch-2.14.1-cp312-cp312-manylinux_2_28_x86_64.whl (torch==2.14.1) cause: failed to copy file from /home/runner/.cache/uv/archive-v0/.../torch/lib/libtorch_cuda.so to /tmp/.nox/<session>/lib/python3.12/site-packages/torch/lib/.tmp...: Disk quota exceeded (os error 122) ``` The 24.04 logs have no hardlink warning, so there the uv cache and `/tmp/.nox` share a filesystem; on 26.04 they do not, uv copies the torch and CUDA libraries, and the copy exceeds the quota.

Type of change: Bug fix Standalone on `main`, split out of the GPTQ-for-MoE stack (#2840 merged ← #2864 ← #2945). It touches only the fused kernel, so it can merge in any order with that stack. GPTQ with `fused: true` runs the NVFP4 column update in a Triton kernel (`gptq_fused_block_scalar`, in modelopt since 0.45). Triton launches on the **current** CUDA device, and the wrapper launched without selecting the device of the tensors it was given. A model that `device_map="auto"` spreads over several GPUs keeps later decoder layers off the current GPU. Once layerwise GPTQ reached such a layer, the kernel ran on GPU 0 with pointers into GPU 1: - **NVLink systems (GB300):** `CUDA error: an illegal memory access was encountered`, reported later at an unrelated op. - **PCIe systems:** `ValueError: Pointer argument cannot be accessed from Triton`. The fix launches the kernel under `torch.cuda.device(w_block.device)`, as the other quantization Triton wrappers (`fp4_kernel.py`, `nvfp4_fp8_sweep.py`, `bmm2_qdq.py`) already do. Found while running layerwise GPTQ on Qwen3.8-Flash-Next with the experts' `down_proj` in static NVFP4 (`fused: true`). The model sits on 4 x GB300 with layers 0-22 on GPU 0. Three runs on three different nodes all died right after layer 22. No API change. - **New GPU test** `test_fused_nvfp4_gptq_runs_on_the_weights_gpu` (2 GPUs): the fused update with every tensor on `cuda:1` and `cuda:0` current matches the same update run on `cuda:0` bit for bit. It fails without the fix with the Triton pointer error on the PCIe GPUs I ran it on. - **Existing tests:** on `main`, `tests/gpu/torch/quantization/test_gptq.py` passes on 2x RTX PRO 6000 (11 tests, including the existing fused-vs-unfused NVFP4 ones). - **End to end:** the Qwen3.8-Flash-Next layerwise GPTQ that died after layer 22 completes with this change on oci-jhb; details in the comment below. - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: ✅ (bug present since 0.45) - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)   * **Bug Fixes** * Fixed GPTQ fused quantization failing with CUDA or Triton errors when calibration runs across multiple GPUs. * Added a check that quantization results remain consistent when processing data on a different GPU than the current device.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix. `hf_ptq.py --low_memory_mode` crashes for any model with `tie_word_embeddings=True` (e.g. Qwen2.5-0.5B/1.5B, Llama-3.2-1B/3B) with `NotImplementedError: Cannot copy out of meta tensor` in `dispatch_model`. Root cause: `init_quantized_weights` builds the model with `from_config` inside accelerate's `init_empty_weights()`, which patches `register_parameter` to re-wrap every assigned parameter in a new meta `Parameter`. The `lm_head.weight = embed_tokens.weight` tie that `from_config` makes is therefore lost (`find_tied_parameters` returns `[]`). Tied checkpoints don't store `lm_head.weight`, and accelerate has no tie to restore after loading, so `lm_head.weight` stays on meta and `model.to(device)` fails. Fix: call `model.tie_weights()` after leaving `init_empty_weights()`, before `mtq.quantize`/`mtq.compress` — the pattern accelerate documents for big-model loading. The tied `Parameter` survives the `RealQuantLinear` conversion (only the `_parameters` dict is wrapped), and `load_checkpoint_in_model` re-ties it after loading `embed_tokens.weight`. Untied models are unaffected (`tie_weights()` is a no-op). ### Usage No new API or flags. ### Testing Parametrized the existing `test_real_quantize_linear` over `tie_word_embeddings` and asserted `lm_head.weight is embed_tokens.weight` iff tied. Ran on CPU (the test path needs no CUDA): | | transformers 4.57.6 / accelerate 1.5.1 | transformers 5.5.4 / accelerate 1.15.0 | |---|---|---| | without fix | tied case fails (`Cannot copy out of meta tensor`) | same | | with fix | 2 passed | 2 passed | Also loaded a tiny tied/untied Llama with `NVFP4_DEFAULT_CFG` and `FP8_DEFAULT_CFG`: with the fix, no parameter is left on meta and `lm_head.weight` equals the checkpoint's `embed_tokens.weight`; untied loads are unchanged. `tests/unit/torch/quantization/plugins/test_accelerate.py` passes. Not run: the end-to-end `hf_ptq.py --low_memory_mode` on a GPU (no GPU available to me); GPU CI covers the parametrized test. Note: if a config enables `lm_head` quantization on a tied model, `lm_head` now loads compressed from the embedding values and is untied from `embed_tokens` (previously it crashed). Default configs disable `lm_head` quantization, so `hf_ptq` doesn't hit this. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ (parametrized existing test) - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: N/A - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ ### Additional Information NVBug 6934537.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix Upgrade the ONNX extra from `~=1.21.0` to the locally validated `~=1.23.2` release line on Windows only. Non-Windows platforms retain `~=1.21.0`, as requested in review. On Windows, exporting multiple tensors into shared external data with ONNX 1.21.0 can truncate a trailing `0x1A` byte when reopening the file. Subsequent tensors overwrite earlier data, corrupting quantized weights and scales. This can produce incorrect output and runaway generation that eventually overflows the conversation context. ONNX already corrected Windows binary-mode file opening upstream in onnx/onnx#7790. This change consumes the released fix and adds a regression test through ModelOpt's `save_onnx`, checking shared-file bytes and tensor round trips. Existing corrupted exports must be regenerated from clean weights. The lockfile is intentionally left to the weekly workflow, as required by CONTRIBUTING.md. ### Usage Reinstall the ONNX extra with the updated dependency and regenerate affected exports from clean weights. No API changes. ### Testing - Windows regression test on this branch: ONNX 1.23.2 passes all three cases. The unmodified ONNX 1.21.0 wheel fails the trailing-`0x1A` case (byte 1023 is overwritten), while the two control cases pass. - Changed-file pre-commit checks cover formatting, lint, typing, license headers, security lint, TOML and reStructuredText validation. - Focused command: `python -m pytest -o addopts='' --noconftest tests/unit/onnx/test_external_data.py -q`. The normal ONNX autouse C++ compilation fixture failed in this local environment; this run excludes repository conftest fixtures and optional coverage hooks. - Prior local end-to-end validation used ModelOpt 0.45.0rc0 with the unmodified ONNX 1.23.2 wheel: regenerated AWQ-lite INT4 model using 32 calibration samples; checked 341 external tensors with no overlaps or invalid scales; CUDA two-turn chat answered Paris and 4 and stopped normally. - Full local five-shot MMLU, all 57 subjects and 14,042 examples: regenerated INT4 8,099/14,042 (57.676969%); clean FP16 8,374/14,042 (59.635380%). These pipeline results are from the earlier ModelOpt configuration, not a full pipeline run on this PR's current main base. - Exact original CI reproduction and the complete current-main test suite have not been run. Release CI and reviewer validation remain required. ### Before your PR is "Ready for review" - Is this change backward compatible?: Yes; no API changes. The ONNX dependency release line changes on Windows only. - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in CONTRIBUTING.md?: N/A; existing dependency upgraded, no copied upstream implementation. - Did you write any new necessary tests?: Yes. - Did you update Changelog?: Yes. - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: Pending; keep as draft until required review is complete. ### Additional Information Addresses NVBugs [6309022](https://nvbugspro.nvidia.com/bug/6309022) and [6561663](https://nvbugspro.nvidia.com/bug/6561663) through the shared Windows external-data corruption fix.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix The functional quantized-weight export (`export_quantized_weight_tensors`, used by Megatron-Bridge's `export_hf_weights_modelopt` / NeMo-RL refit) rounds some per-tensor FP8 weights to a different FP8 value than fake quantization uses. Root cause: the functional export state keeps the per-tensor FP8 `weight_scale` 0-d. In `to_quantized_weight`, `bf16_weight / scale` then stays in bf16, because a 0-d tensor does not promote a dimensioned tensor of the same category. The Megatron and HF exporters pass a 1-d scale, which promotes the division to float32. On a 256×256 bf16 linear quantized with `FP8_DEFAULT_CFG`, 1,584 of 65,536 exported weights differed from `weight_quantizer(weight)`, and a toy Qwen3 exported through Megatron-Bridge had FP8 weight tensors that differed from `export_mcore_gpt_to_hf`. Fix: divide in float32 explicitly. The Megatron and HF exporters already divided in float32 through promotion, so their outputs and peak memory are unchanged. Found while building the Megatron-Bridge quantized HF export (OMNIML-5976), whose parity check against `export_mcore_gpt_to_hf` this unblocks for FP8. ### Usage No API change. ### Testing - New unit test `test_functional_fp8_export_matches_the_fake_quantized_bf16_weight`: the dequantized export of a bf16 FP8 linear equals `weight_quantizer(weight)` bit for bit. Fails without the fix. - `tests/unit/torch/export/`: 513 passed; `test_streaming_export_two_cpu_ranks` fails the same way on main in my container. - `tests/gpu/torch/export/`: 188 passed. The 4 AWQ / SVDQuant cases of `test_unified_hf_export_and_check_safetensors.py` hit the 120 s timeout on my shared GPUs, and do the same on main. - Toy Qwen3 FP8 through Megatron-Bridge `export_hf_weights_modelopt` vs `export_mcore_gpt_to_hf`: all weight tensors bitwise equal with the fix (several FP8 weights differed before; per-tensor scales differ only in shape, `[]` vs `[1]`). ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: N/A (the functional export API is new in 0.48, still in RC) - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ ### Additional Information Part of OMNIML-5976 (Megatron-Bridge quantized export, epic OMNIML-5486). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)   ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Fixed an issue with exporting FP8-quantized weights when their scale is a single value.

Type of change: Bug fix With HuggingFace checkpointing enabled, `export_hf_checkpoint(..., save_modelopt_state=False)` still writes `modelopt_state.pth` for Diffusers components. The Diffusers dispatch and component saves omit the flag, so the checkpointing hook uses its own default of `True`. Forward the public flag through the Diffusers exporter to both quantized and non-quantized model saves. This also makes the public default of `False` effective for Diffusers exports. Explicit `True` continues to use the existing checkpointing hook. The existing API now honors the option: ```python import modelopt.torch.opt as mto from modelopt.torch.export import export_hf_checkpoint mto.enable_huggingface_checkpointing() export_hf_checkpoint(model, export_dir="export", save_modelopt_state=False) ``` Reused `test_diffusers_export_respects_save_modelopt_state_false` from the existing QA reproduction at `0871d4fefdcb89929a37c7999d1e308e8f5cc3e3`. Invoked the unchanged test function with its CPU fixture directly, outside the Jenkins-wide pytest setup. Local, offline source-tree validation on Windows: Python 3.12.10, PyTorch 2.12.0+cpu, Diffusers 0.40.0, Transformers 5.5.4. Both runs calibrated a real tiny UNet with `FP8_DEFAULT_CFG` (45 quantizers, 30 enabled) and used fresh output directories. | Source | Direct save with False | Export with False | | --- | --- | --- | | Parent `378888145a` | No sidecar; control passes | Sidecar written; expected regression assertion fails | | Fix `5ff581d74c` | No sidecar; control passes | No sidecar; regression passes | Both exports produced config and safetensors files. This verifies the original file-saving bug on CPU; it is not a release-wheel or deployment-inference retest. - `git diff --check`: passed. - File-scoped pre-commit: Ruff, formatting, license and Bandit checks passed. Mypy reports the same existing Windows `os.sched_getaffinity` error in unchanged `prepare_megatron_data_blend.py:373` on both the parent and fixed revisions. The same Mypy version with the hook's arguments and `--platform linux` passed.

…2971) ### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix Loading a Diffusers component with `from_pretrained(parent, subfolder="unet")` finds its weights in the component directory, but ModelOpt still looks for `modelopt_state.pth` in the parent directory. The load can succeed while dropping the saved quantizers. Pass the component subfolder through ModelOpt's state lookup for local directories and existing Hub cache entries. Calls without `subfolder` and checkpoint saving retain their existing behavior; no download behavior is added. ### Usage ```python import modelopt.torch.opt as mto from diffusers import UNet2DConditionModel mto.enable_huggingface_checkpointing() # A quantized UNet was saved with save_pretrained("pipeline/unet"). restored = UNet2DConditionModel.from_pretrained( "pipeline", subfolder="unet", local_files_only=True ) ``` ### Testing Local CPU environment: Python 3.12.10, PyTorch 2.12.0+cpu, Diffusers 0.40.0, Transformers 5.5.4. - Existing `tests/unit/torch/opt/plugins/test_diffusers_save_load.py`: **1 passed**. - Existing `tests/unit/torch/opt/plugins/test_transformers_save_load.py::test_causal_lm_save_restore`: **2 passed** (`LlamaForCausalLM` and `AutoModelForCausalLM`). - Standalone tiny UNet INT8 reproducer, before and after the fix: direct-directory loading restores 30 enabled quantizers in both versions. Subfolder loading restores 0 before the fix and 30 afterward; its maximum absolute output difference from the original quantized model changes from approximately 0.020612 to 0. - `pre-commit run --files modelopt/torch/opt/plugins/diffusers.py modelopt/torch/opt/plugins/huggingface.py`: **passed**. No test files were added or modified. Fix validation uses a parent directory without component weights. Hub loading, GPU inference, and other Diffusers architectures were not validated. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" Contributor and security guidance reviewed; the commit is signed and signed off. - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ Existing calls without `subfolder` retain their behavior. - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A — neither. - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ❌ No new checked-in tests; existing tests and the standalone reproducer were run as described above. - Did you update Changelog?: N/A — no new feature or public API change; affected prior released versions have not been established. - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ Not yet reviewed by Claude. ### Additional Information This change does not alter Diffusers' weight selection when both the parent and component directory contain same-named weights; that separate directory-layout edge case is discussed in huggingface/diffusers#7140.   ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Model loading now correctly handles models stored in subfolders, including when retrieving associated optimization state from local directories or the Hugging Face Hub.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix. LTX-2 distillation with `training_mode: full` names its standalone weights `.safetensors`, but `Accelerator.save()` defaults to PyTorch serialization. Loading that file with safetensors fails with `Error while deserializing header: header too large`. Pass `safe_serialization=True` so the saved contents match the advertised format, and document the fix in the changelog. ### Usage No configuration changes are required. Full-mode training now writes valid safetensors weights. Existing incorrectly serialized files are not converted. ### Testing - Reused the existing external QA case `test_ltx_full_checkpoint_is_safetensors`; no new tests added. It executes the production save method extracted unchanged from the example, with a tiny CPU model and real Accelerate/safetensors APIs. The baseline fails with the header error; the fix passes with exact key and BF16 tensor equality. This is method-level validation, not a full LTX training run. - Environment: Python 3.12.10, PyTorch 2.12.0+cpu, Accelerate 1.15.0, safetensors 0.8.0, and ModelOpt 0.48.0rc1 for library imports; example source tested before and after this change. - Applicable pre-commit hooks and `git diff --check` pass. The mypy hook environment passes with `--platform linux`; the pre-existing Windows `os.sched_getaffinity` error also reproduces on the unmodified source and was excluded. - Full LTX GPU/FSDP training and inference were not run. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: Yes for the documented safetensors output contract; no API or configuration changes. - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A. - Did you write any new necessary tests?: N/A; reused the existing external QA regression described above. No in-repository regression test added. - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: Yes. - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: Pending. ### Additional Information NVBug 6982528.   ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Fixed the format used when saving full-mode LTX-2 distillation checkpoints. Checkpoint files now use the format indicated by their file extension, improving compatibility with tools that load them. LoRA checkpoint saving is unchanged.

Type of change: Bug fix Raises the `llm_qat` example's accelerate requirement from `>=1.0.0,<1.14` to `>=1.15.0`. The `<1.14` cap (#2067) existed because accelerate 1.14.0 broke FSDP2 for models with tied input/output embeddings. 1.15.0 fixes that, and it also moves the example off accelerate versions affected by CVE-2026-69112 (path traversal in `load_checkpoint_in_model` / `load_checkpoint_and_dispatch` via unsanitized sharded-index `weight_map` entries). `uv.lock` already resolves accelerate 1.15.0. CI's tiny Qwen3 is untied, so it could not catch the 1.14 regression. The shared NVFP4 PTQ student for the QAT/QAD tests is now built from a tied-embedding tiny Qwen3 (`tied_qwen3_path`), so the existing tests cover it with no extra runs. No usage change. In `nvcr.io/nvidia/pytorch:26.07-py3` (the llm_qat CI image) on 2 GPUs, installed as CI does, running `pytest tests/examples/llm_qat -k fsdp2`: - accelerate 1.14.0: `test_qwen3_qat_nvfp4[fsdp2]` and `test_qwen3_qad_nvfp4[fsdp2]` **fail** (`ValueError: Parameter 'model.embed_tokens.weight' is shared with a parameter already managed by another FSDP group`). - accelerate 1.15.0: both pass. Not run: the `ddp` / `deepspeed` backends (nightly) and the rest of the llm_qat tests. - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ (example-local requirement bump) - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ (existing QAT/QAD tests now use a tied-embedding model) - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: N/A - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: N/A 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)   * **Chores** * Updated the minimum required Accelerate version. * **Tests** * Expanded validation of quantization-aware workflows with models that use tied word embeddings.

…3026) Type of change: Bug fix `modelopt/onnx/quantization/extensions.py` builds `modelopt_round_and_pack_ext` with cppimport when it is first imported. INT4 packing (`quant_utils.pack_float32_to_4bit_cpp_based`) imports it on first use. If the build fails, the module is meant to fall back to the Python implementation. But cppimport builds with `setuptools.setup()`, which raises `SystemExit` when the build fails, and `except Exception` doesn't catch that. So in a writable install without a working C++ compiler, the import ends the process: ``` INFO - Loading extension modelopt_round_and_pack_ext... error: command '/nonexistent/c++' failed: No such file or directory ``` (exit status 1). This catches `SystemExit` too, adds a unit test that fails a build the way setuptools does, and adds a changelog entry, since 0.47.0 and earlier have the bug. N/A On main at efda42c: - `tests/unit/onnx/quantization/test_extensions.py` (new) fails on main (`SystemExit: error: command 'c++' failed: No such file or directory`) and passes with this PR. `test_quant_utils.py` passes with this PR. The test stubs `cppimport.imp` to raise the `SystemExit` that setuptools raises, so it doesn't depend on how each platform's compiler can be made to fail; the next item runs the real build. - Importing `modelopt.onnx.quantization.extensions` in a new process from a writable copy of the installed package, with `CC`/`CXX`/`LDSHARED` pointing at a compiler that doesn't exist: on main the process exits with status 1; with this PR it logs the warning and `round_and_pack_ext` is `None`. With a compiler, both build and load the extension, and INT4 packing with it matches the Python fallback. - `pre-commit run` with this repository's configuration (ruff 0.15.20, mypy 2.1.0, bandit, the rst hooks) passes on the changed files. - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: ✅ - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ (not run yet) Found while packaging 0.47.0 for Nixpkgs (NixOS/nixpkgs#577198). `extensions.py` is the same in 0.47.0, `release/0.48.0` and main. `tests/unit/onnx/conftest.py`'s prebuild (#2461) suppresses only `Exception`, so it would not have caught this either. A failed build still leaves cppimport's temporary build directory in `$TMPDIR`, since cppimport removes it only when the build succeeds.

Type of change: Bug fix With Top-K logits distillation and tensor parallelism enabled, each TP rank evaluates the same global KL loss. The autograd all-gather and full-vocabulary normalizer all-reduce sum gradients from these replicated losses, multiplying student gradients by the TP size even though the reported loss is correct. Scale only the Top-K loss's backward contribution by `1 / TP`. Forward loss values, loss-balancer weights, and dense KL behavior remain unchanged. Extend the existing ghost-token reference test to compare each vocabulary shard's gradients against a full-vocabulary reference, including Top-P truncation, non-default temperature, and reverse KL.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix A calibrated skip-softmax model loses its fitted thresholds after a ModelOpt checkpoint roundtrip. QA saw all 22 attention modules of TinyLlama-1.1B go from `dynamic_calibrated` to the static default after `mto.save` / `mto.restore` (max logit difference 2.09 on the same input), on both the PyTorch and Triton backends. **Root cause.** Calibration stores its results (`calibration_params`, the per-phase `a`/`b` fit, and `target_sparse_ratio`) as plain attributes on each module's `_sparse_method_instance`. They are not tensors, so the state dict doesn't carry them, and `update_sparse_attention_metadata` saved only `method` and `method_config`. On restore, `restore_sparse_attention_model` re-converts the model from the config, which builds fresh method instances with both attributes set to `None`. **Fix.** Follow the quantization design for non-tensor module state (`TensorQuantizer.get_modelopt_state` / `set_from_modelopt_state`, collected by `update_quantize_metadata` and applied by `restore_quantizer_state`): - `SparseAttentionModule.get_modelopt_state()` returns the module's state: `method`, `method_config`, the enabled flag, and the calibration results when present. `update_sparse_attention_metadata` stores it per module in the mode metadata. - `SparseAttentionModule.set_from_modelopt_state()` re-applies the enabled flag and calibration results after `convert` has rebuilt the method from the mode config. `restore_sparse_attention_state` calls it per module. - The old restore body is removed. It only set `_<key>` attributes that nothing reads and called a `_setup()` that returns early, so removing it changes no behavior. The state stays in metadata rather than becoming buffers, so exported HF / vLLM weights gain no extra keys. The values are plain floats and dicts, so they load under `weights_only=True`. Checkpoints saved before this change carry none of the new keys and restore as before. Persisting the enabled flag also fixes a related loss: layers turned off with `disable_sparse_attention()` after `sparsify` came back enabled after restore (`TensorQuantizer` likewise saves its disabled flag). ### Usage No API change. Calibrated models now restore with their thresholds: ```python model = mtsa.sparsify(model, SKIP_SOFTMAX_TRITON_CALIB, forward_loop=calib_loop) mto.save(model, "ckpt.pth") restored = mto.restore(fresh_model, "ckpt.pth") # modules stay dynamic_calibrated ``` ### Testing - New unit test `test_restore_keeps_calibration_params`: injects calibration params, roundtrips through `mto.save` / `mto.restore` on a file and checks the params, target sparsity and `dynamic_calibrated` threshold type. It fails without the fix (`calibration_params` is `None` after restore) and passes with it. - New unit test `test_restore_keeps_disabled_modules`: a module disabled after `sparsify` stays disabled after restore. It fails without the fix. - New unit test `test_restore_legacy_state_without_calibration_keys`: metadata without the new keys still restores (enabled, uncalibrated). It passes both with and without the fix. - `pytest tests/unit/torch/sparsity/attention_sparsity`: 218 passed. - CPU repro on a 2-layer tiny Llama (`flash_skip_softmax`, PyTorch backend) through `mto.save` / `mto.restore`: before the fix, modules restored as `static` and a disabled layer came back enabled; with it, both are preserved. - Not re-run: QA's GPU TinyLlama-1.1B / `triton_skip_softmax` case. It goes through the same metadata path. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ (older checkpoints restore unchanged) - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: ❌ - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ (pending) ### Additional Information Needs cherry-pick to `release/0.48.0` (label `cherry-pick-0.48.0`).

…ght_update (#1860) Closes #1859 `fsdp2_aware_weight_update`'s `finally` block uses `fsdp_param_mapping`, `fsdp_param_group`, and `root_module`, which are only set after the `unshard()` inside the `try`. If `unshard()` fails first (e.g. a CUDA OOM on a large block), the `finally` raises `UnboundLocalError` — and since that happens inside `finally`, it replaces the real error. The user sees a confusing `UnboundLocalError` instead of the actual OOM. - Bind `fsdp_param_group` only after `create_fsdp_param_mapping` succeeds. - Skip the `finally` bookkeeping while it is unset, so an early failure (e.g. a CUDA OOM in `unshard()`) propagates and the FSDP param group is left untouched. The success path is unchanged. Added `test_fsdp2_weight_update_context_error_propagates`: forces the in-body `unshard()` and then `create_fsdp_param_mapping` to raise, and asserts each time that the original error surfaces and the FSDP param list is unchanged.  * **Bug Fixes** * Fixed an issue where failures during FSDP setup, including unsharding errors, could be masked by a secondary cleanup error. * Original setup failures now propagate unchanged, resulting in more accurate error reporting. * Preserved FSDP parameter group state when setup fails. * **Tests** * Added regression coverage for unsharding and parameter-mapping failures, confirming that the original error is preserved and parameter groups remain unchanged.  --------- Signed-off-by: Vu Dinh <vudinh@outlook.com> Signed-off-by: Rohan Joshi <rohjoshi@nvidia.com>

… with plain models (#3030) ### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix Saving a plain model over a quantized checkpoint previously left modelopt_state.pth behind, causing reload to restore stale quantizers. Remove that file after a successful unconverted-model save, regardless of save_modelopt_state. Failed saves preserve the existing state file. ### Usage No API changes. Existing save_pretrained() calls now correctly replace quantized checkpoints with plain models. ### Scope and known limitation This PR addresses local checkpoint overwrites. With `push_to_hub=True`, Diffusers uploads the directory before the save hook removes an old `modelopt_state.pth`, so the Hub copy can still contain stale conversion state. Correcting upload ordering and remote checkpoint cleanup is deferred to a separate change, as noted in [CodeRabbit's review](#3030 (comment)). ### Testing - Reproduced the stale-quantizer failure before applying the fix. - Added a tiny Diffusers UNet regression covering both save_modelopt_state settings, failed-save preservation, exact weight restoration, and output equality with a fresh-directory save/load control. - CPU checkpoint tests: 21 passed, 1 manual test skipped. - All applicable pre-commit checks passed. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" Make sure you read and follow [Contributor guidelines](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) and your commits are signed (`git commit -s -S`).

Each new target was checked on the default branch of the relevant repo. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: N/A - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: N/A - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: N/A - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: N/A ### Additional Information The API Reference links to `docs/source/reference/2_qdq_placement.rst` in the same autotune README also look broken (that file does not exist under `docs/source/reference/`), but I was not sure what the right replacement is, so I left them alone.   ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Documentation** * Corrected the TensorRT-LLM setup guide link in the GPT-OSS example. * Updated the TensorRT-LLM Build API link in the HF PTQ example to point to the appropriate architecture-specific documentation.  --------- Signed-off-by: Pratik Gandhi <travpreneur@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rohan Joshi <rohjoshi@nvidia.com>

#3033) ### What does this PR do? Type of change: Bug fix Calling `input_quantizer.disable_quant()` previously left activation quantization active in the fused NVFP4 Conv3d kernel because dispatch checked only `is_enabled`. Check both `is_enabled` and `_if_quant` before enabling activation quantization in the kernel. This fixes regular Conv3d and Wan causal Conv3d while preserving independent weight quantization. ### Usage Existing calls now behave as expected: ```python model.input_quantizer.disable_quant() output = model(x) # Fused Conv3d skips activation quantization. ``` ### Testing Validated using the real CUDA kernel on RTX 6000 Ada with PyTorch 26.07 and Diffusers 0.39.0: - 80 focused checks passed, including existing convolution tests. - Six new GPU cases cover regular Conv3d and Wan Conv3d with and without cached frames, with weight quantization enabled or disabled. - Each case verifies equivalence to bypassing the activation quantizer and restoration of the original output after re-enabling. - All six cases fail with the fix reverted and pass after restoration. - All pre-commit checks passed. B300 and full-model video generation were not tested. ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" Make sure you read and follow [Contributor guidelines](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) and your commits are signed (`git commit -s -S`). Make sure you read and follow the [Security Best Practices](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/SECURITY.md#security-coding-practices-for-contributors) (e.g. avoiding hardcoded `trust_remote_code=True`, `torch.load(..., weights_only=False)`, `pickle`, etc.). - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: N/A - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: N/A - Not yet run ### Additional Information Fixes NVBug 6980192.   ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Conv3D now correctly respects the activation quantizer’s active state when applying quantization, making disabled activation quantization behave as expected. * **Tests** * Added GPU regression coverage for NVFP4 Conv3D behavior, including activation quantization toggling and optional Wan convolution variants.

Review comments at @examples/vllm_serve/README.md:
- Line 29: Clarify the README statement about eager fake quantization by
limiting the fallback claim to FP8, which uses scaled_e4m3_impl() and
fp8_eager() when the extension is unavailable. State that other quantization
formats may require the CUDA extension.

Review comments at @modelopt/onnx/quantization/autotune/benchmark.py:
- Line 61: Update the default timing-cache path creation to retain a
TemporaryDirectory owner for the process lifetime, and return the cache path
inside that directory; preserve the directory’s private permissions and allow
the owner to clean it up when the process exits.

Review comments at @modelopt/torch/_deploy/_runtime/tensorrt/engine_builder.py:
- Around line 138-139: Make the cache used by _default_artifact_dir
process-aware so a forked child gets an artifact directory distinct from the
parent’s cached directory; key the cached result by process ID or recreate it
when the process ID changes, keeping engine files and timing caches isolated
between processes.

Review comments at @modelopt/torch/quantization/plugins/attention.py:
- Around line 197-198: Update the attention patching logic around bmm_nodes so
Q, K, and V quantizers are assigned from operand roles rather than AST source
order; handle score helpers defined after forward and both bmm and @ operations,
rejecting classes when roles cannot be established. Add an operand-wiring test
with a score helper defined after forward.

Review comments at @modelopt/torch/quantization/utils/core_utils.py:
- Around line 1012-1014: Make enable_fake_quant restore each
weight_quantizer._fake_quant flag in a finally block so exceptions during
unshard or setup cannot leave fake quantization enabled. Also ensure the root
module is reshared if create_fsdp_param_mapping fails after a successful
unshard, even when fsdp_param_group has not yet been assigned.

Review comments at @tests/gpu/torch/quantization/test_tensor_quant_cuda.py:
- Line 224: Gate the large CUDA allocation for x on sufficient available GPU
memory, including space for the output and amax/scale tensors; skip this test
case when memory is insufficient so it does not fail with out-of-memory on
smaller GPUs.

Qualify the fallback by quantization format.

When the FP8 extension is unavailable, scaled_e4m3_impl() uses fp8_eager(). The general fake_quant_impl() path instead dereferences the missing extension, so the current sentence is too broad.

Clean up the default timing-cache directory.

If users run AutoTune repeatedly without an explicit cache path, each process creates a new directory that remains after exit. trtexec can write a cache into that directory, so repeated runs accumulate files in the temporary filesystem. Keep the directory private, but give it a process-lifetime cleanup owner, such as a retained TemporaryDirectory. (docs.python.org)

Make the artifact directory cache process-aware.

If a process forks after _default_artifact_dir() runs, the child inherits the cached path. Parent and child then use the same engine filename and timing cache. Concurrent builds of the same model can read or overwrite each other’s artifacts. Key the cache by process ID, or recreate the directory when the process ID changes.

Do not assign Q/K/V roles solely by source order.

If forward() calls a score helper defined later in the class, the value matmul appears first in the AST but runs after the score matmul. These patch calls then quantize the attention probabilities and V as Q/K, and K as V. The same error affects @. Identify the operand roles before patching, or reject classes whose roles cannot be established. Add a helper-defined-after-forward case to the operand-wiring test. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Setup failures still leave state changed: enable_fake_quant is not exception-safe and the root stays unsharded.

The new comment at Lines 988-989 says an early error leaves FSDP state intact. That claim is only partly true.

If root_module.unshard() raises (the OOM case), the enable_fake_quant generator at Lines 926-934 has no try/finally. Every weight_quantizer._fake_quant stays True after the exception.

If create_fsdp_param_mapping raises at Line 1013, fsdp_param_group is still None. The finally block skips root_module.reshard(), so the root module stays unsharded.

The new test only asserts param_group.fsdp_params equality, so it does not catch either effect.

Make enable_fake_quant restore its flags in a finally block. Optionally, reshard the root module when setup fails after a successful unshard.

Proposed fix for `enable_fake_quant`

- yield - for m in module.modules(): - if hasattr(m, "weight_quantizer"): - m.weight_quantizer._fake_quant = original_fake_quant.pop(0) + try: + yield + finally: + for m in module.modules(): + if hasattr(m, "weight_quantizer"): + m.weight_quantizer._fake_quant = original_fake_quant.pop(0)

Gate this test on available GPU memory.

On an 8 GiB GPU, the input and output each require more than 4 GiB. The amax and scale tensors need additional memory. The test therefore fails with CUDA out-of-memory even when the kernel works. Check available memory before allocation, or run this case only in a high-memory GPU lane. (docs.pytorch.org)
