Background

Image chat selected an inherited text interface instead of the bundle's declared vision-language Task. Serve one original image plus one question through existing trtmc-server and pip-installed AIPerf. Refs #1672, part of #1667.

Exit Criteria

All nine existing native profiles below pass owning-family E2E, the unchanged selected-corpus gate and real AIPerf chat requests. Preserve full answers, original-image identity and native generated-token counts. Closes #1672 after integration merge under the corrected existing-model-only GB300 scope. No checkpoint, model spec/manifest, precision/parallel variant or numerical threshold is added or changed relative to main. The seven newly introduced InternVL profiles and their profile-only extension have been removed from the final diff.

Implementation

  • Dispatch bounded RGB PNG/JPEG image chat through the declared primary legacy IVisionLanguageGeneration or SDK ImagesTextToText, retaining declared configuration fields and family output defaults. Reject secondary-capability substitution, multi-image/multi-turn/system prompts, streaming, stop and thinking controls. No extra server or AIPerf checkout.
  • Extend the existing endpoint inventory/profiler with built-in AIPerf chat. Verify complete native/HTTP answers and counts, join request/metric records and separate warmup. Fingerprint source contents (including already-dirty files), bundle, inputs and local tokenizer files before/after the run; preserve raw records and refuse success on mutation. Hub overrides require an immutable revision.
  • Keep corrections scoped to existing models: Qwen smart resize/dynamic geometry and Qwen3-VL BF16 position rounding; DeepSeek aspect-preserving padding; LocateAnything tokenizer packaging/reference framing; standard Lance tokenizer export; and InternVL serialized-plan lifetime. The two existing InternVL profiles preserve main's checkpoint-processor tiling and context 4096. Tiled bundles reuse the existing dynamic-Sq network for prefill and one-token decode with independent contexts. The removed benchmark qualification framework stays removed. No new InternVL checkpoint or Qwen3-backed InternVL extension remains.
  • Check TensorRT's setInputShape result before updating runtime shape state. A real Qwen boundary probe exposed silent execution after a rejected shape; the runtime now reports failure and supports the next valid request. Dynamic Qwen profiles admit upstream rounding, including tight unaligned pixel budgets, without changing resize targets or the canonical profile bounds. Reject empty decoded images before invoking a Task; validate revision-only tokenizer overrides as immutable pins.
  • Bootstrap the unchanged Lance FlashAttention 2.8.3 build with psutil==7.0.0 in its family-owned dependency image; model/reference operators and family requirements stay unchanged.
  • Provide a three-step Qwen usage guide that links existing build instructions, plus guidance for other already-built models. Phi4's independent tokenizer helper is supplied by prerequisite fix(phi4): stage engine plans and export AIPerf tokenizer #1764, including its chat template and independently validated staged-plan memory fix.

Validation

  • Current fix 1495d31cfd41d7b1c5d0f3d68eeca38c4a5cdf2e restores the InternVL coverage assertion to main after removing the unrequested profiles. Local checked-in premerge stages pass: 307 source-quality tests, 1,550 Python tests (two existing skips), 266 C++ tests, and 165 affected-family CPU tests. The fresh source archive/wheel and installed SDK/CLI checks pass for all 136 families; InternVL's full existing 2B premerge E2E passes. Reproduction and validation. GitHub checks for this head must complete separately.

Commands and Results

  • Additional local public-hardware verification at the earlier e12fbc044 source: python -m pytest families/<owner>/tests/test_e2e.py::test_official_checkpoint_e2e --e2e-testcase <case>: DeepSeek deepseek-ocr-l0 PASS 348.39s; Qwen3-VL-8B PASS 567.41s, each one executed/non-skipped case from e12fbc0441e648b9ebfa3ce8ebf7b2bea2e81ba6. Original references, precision and thresholds are unchanged. Native C++ runtime sources match the frozen f6fe94a53a38db1c8d36eb032895e2fad42f91a4 runtime; binary fingerprints are unchanged. Public failure and fresh local verification.
  • Each profile: python -m pytest families/<owner>/tests/test_e2e.py::test_official_checkpoint_e2e --e2e-testcase <profile>: nine scoped non-skipped passes, with served bundle/XML evidence retained. Both Qwen3 bundles were rebuilt and passed again after the canonical dynamic maximum correction. Later custom-budget bounds retain the canonical shapes, as checked separately.
  • Each profile: python -m trtmc_aiperf_qual endpoint-profile --environment <prepared.yaml> --profile <profile> --bundle <validated.bundle> --inputs <original-inputs.jsonl> --max-output-tokens <10|32|300> --out <new-directory>; Lance/Phi4 add their exported --tokenizer. PyPI AIPerf 0.13.0, built-in chat, concurrency1, random seed0, 5 warmups +50 measured requests per model: 450 measured +45 warmup, 495 full native/HTTP matches, zero client errors/unmatched identities/missing metric exports. All ten selected inputs are measured by every run.
  • python -m pytest apps/server/python/tests apps/aiperf_qual/tests apps/perf_serving/tests --import-mode=importlib -q: 635 passed, 2 optional-dependency skips. Fresh scope-correction architecture/family CLI/impact checks: 139 passed; focused InternVL: 34 passed, 4 existing explicit-selector E2E skips; Qwen geometry/precision: 40 passed; existing numerical and reference gates remain unchanged. Separate native tiling tests verify row-major tiles, thumbnail inclusion and image-token accounting. Model CI/impact validation and git diff --check pass; current-head public checks must complete separately.
  • Native CTest: 5 CPU checks and 1 GPU shape-rejection/recovery check pass, including SDK fixture/process dispatch, the real decoder/worker unreadable-image regression, and InternVL normalization/tiling. The old worker fails the new empty-image regression. The old profiler fails all three new mutable revision-only controls. Canonical Qwen profile bounds match the already-qualified bundles; custom unaligned pixel budgets have separate owning CPU coverage.
  • New Qwen3 2B/8B bundles accept both 200:1 orientations (788 patch rows/197 merged tokens); vision outputs pass the existing finite/nonzero gate and normal-image outputs repeat unchanged afterward. This is shape admission/stability evidence, not a new boundary text-quality claim.
  • Independent live negative controls mutate an already-dirty source file and a local tokenizer: each preserves all55 raw client records and refuses a success summary. Phi4 export preserves all200,029 vocabulary entries, 8 raw token/framing probes, its 423-character template and 2 rendered-chat/ID probes across family Transformers4.48.2 and the published client environment.

Corpus is conversion parity against the unchanged owning reference, not gold VQA accuracy. Every row passes its original per-sample and corpus gates; the table gives the actual10/10 or9/10 result. Qwen/InternVL/Phi4/Lance use10 original Imagenette JPEGs, LocateAnything the same images with its own box/point question/gate, and DeepSeek10 original OCRBench V1 crops. Revisions, source selections, complete observations and raw requests are retained outside Git.

HTTP includes transport; Task time includes family preprocessing and generation. Build/load/startup/warmup are excluded. Measurements are one campaign on a shared host, without capacity/repeatability or reference-relative speedup claims. Output lengths differ and native counts include terminal tokens; prompt/image token counts are unavailable. Build precision is a request: InternVL/Lance/LocateAnything retain FP32 vision; DeepSeek retains FP32 decoder layers6–12 and mixed family boundaries. Both existing InternVL profiles use the checkpoint processor’s tiling policy (up to twelve 448-pixel local tiles plus a thumbnail), with context 4096. The frozen FP32 corpus references retain the same checkpoint, original image, question, generation controls and family environment. Current full family E2Es independently execute their owning reference again. Pixel preprocessing remains independently implemented. DeepSeek native uses one768-pixel view versus the unchanged1024-pixel crop-mode reference. No equal-visual-budget claim.

Reproduce the selected inputs

VQA uses frgfm/imagenette@a8a496123b40fa739da2acf9b0dae339d30c7bae metadata and the original imagenette2-320.tgz, SHA256 569b4497c98db6dd29f335d1f109cf315fe127053cedf69010d047f0188e158c. Select the first eligible RGB validation image per class in archive order, without re-encoding. The selected source basenames are n02979186_7492.JPEG, n01440764_32420.JPEG, n03000684_400.JPEG, n03028079_25612.JPEG, ILSVRC2012_val_00032482.JPEG, n03425413_17220.JPEG, n02102040_3160.JPEG, n03445777_2412.JPEG, n03417042_28832.JPEG, n03394916_32422.JPEG (under imagenette2-320/val/<class>/). Ask What is the main object in this image? Answer in one word., max10, temperature1/top_k1. LocateAnything uses the same bytes with Locate a single instance that matches the following description: {label}. and max32, using the Imagenette class label.

OCR uses echo840/OCRBench@92a54bd1384387c178d5a07140a2d85e0a3d12e1, rows0–9 of data/test-00000-of-00001.parquet, original embedded image bytes and their question what is written in the image?, max300. This is an explicit OCRBench V1 selection, distinct from the historical V2 recipe removed from main. All runs use the unchanged family conversion gate, rather than gold-label model accuracy.

Hardware, Environment, and Revisions

Base a832817e6ed9603b100bbff25dce3f04c65beaca; reviewed head e12fbc0441e648b9ebfa3ce8ebf7b2bea2e81ba6. Fresh exact-head public and protected CI are pending; older-head results are stale and no new-head premerge pass is claimed.

GB300/SM103, aarch64, CUDA toolkit13.3.33, driver580.105.08, TensorRT11.1.0.106, Python3.12.3, Torch2.12.0+cu130. Server: FastAPI0.115.12/Pillow12.3/Pydantic2.14.1/Uvicorn0.34. Family environments retain their own declared dependencies; no global dependency changes.

The two retained InternVL transports/builds/E2Es use f6fe94a53a38db1c8d36eb032895e2fad42f91a4. The seven unaffected transports retain their actual epochs: Qwen3 2B/8B and Phi4 798589ea05e6c39b15c8a48e92e565e25e7d9e86; DeepSeek 7a4f3239ee60075937f32b649d12ce50c364f470; Qwen2.5/Lance/LocateAnything 0ce210596cadfa47e1b8641357a85aaa62281d93. Every run has clean/stable source, bundle and tokenizer provenance. Later error-path/override/custom-profile fixes have separate regression controls; canonical shape bounds and valid-image behavior remain unchanged. Results are not relabelled as benchmarks on the final PR head. Exact-head CI is evaluated separately.

Not Run / Remaining Gaps

The owner clarified existing models/specs only, retaining the GB300 restriction. The scope is nine existing native normal vision-language profiles. Seven newly added InternVL profiles, their thresholds, their public-capacity policy and their Qwen3-only weight-mapping extension are removed. Existing model manifests/specs/thresholds and existing test eligibility remain identical to main. Edge-backed routes without an eligible pre-existing native vision-language spec, additional precision/distributed variants, streaming/TTFT/ITL, multi-image and multi-turn workloads are outside this qualification.

Public L4 OOM limitations for the existing DeepSeek diagnostic and Qwen3-VL-8B remain visible; they have not been skipped or converted to passes. InternVL3.5-4B is removed because its new model spec was outside scope. Lance's unrelated build dependency failure has a family-owned bootstrap fix; its paired metadata probe fails without bootstrap and succeeds with it, while a fresh full x86 image build remains CI validation.

The fresh CPU suites pass in the prepared dependency environment. Initial local collection attempts lacked AIPerf/plugin imports, and a host-only run lacked Torch; rerunning in the existing container with the PyPI client and Torch overlay produced 635 passes and the same two optional-dependency skips. No tests or expectations were changed to resolve those environment errors.

Notes For Future Readers

Merged prerequisite #1764 supplies the Phi4 tokenizer export and staged-plan/allocator corrections. This diff changes five model families, within Dev CI's existing limit. No CI guard or numerical criterion was relaxed. Review shared Task dispatch/provenance first, then the independent family fixes and guide. Rebuild older Qwen, InternVL and DeepSeek bundles; their old geometry/framing cannot establish original-image qualification. Keep model semantics out of shared serving/core code.

The only added build dependency is pinned psutil==7.0.0 for Lance FlashAttention source metadata, installed before the unchanged family requirements. The family-owned dependency image uses the existing trusted CI extension point. No new model checkpoint/spec, bundled checkpoint or redistributed weights are introduced. Existing checkpoint terms continue to apply to user-built bundles.

Risk level

  • Low
  • Medium
  • High

Family geometry/framing fixes require bundle rebuilds. Both existing InternVL profiles retain main's context 4096 and processor tiling. Existing model specs, numerical gates and test eligibility are unchanged; no public CI OOM exclusion is added. The generic runtime reports rejected TensorRT shapes instead of continuing with stale shapes; failure/recovery and six-family valid-request checks cover that behavior. Fresh exact-head CI and any review follow-up remain merge prerequisites.
Owner-approved public-hardware handling: retain existing model contracts and repository merge requirements. Demonstrated non-required public OOM/hardware failures may be accepted after unchanged local correctness passes are documented. Required Internal CI must pass on this PR head; a pending result is not a pass. No CI exclusion or status override is introduced.

Walkthrough

Adds single-image vision chat to the native server and AIPerf profiling, with request validation, provenance checks, and input tooling. It also updates Qwen and DeepSeek image preprocessing, InternVL plan building, tokenizer packaging, and TensorRT dynamic-shape validation.

Changes

Vision Chat Serving

Layer / File(s) Summary
Image request contract
apps/server/python/trtmc_server/schemas.py, apps/server/python/trtmc_server/protocol.py, apps/server/python/trtmc_server/registry.py
Chat content accepts image parts. Protocol helpers extract one image URL and validate vision results. The registry accepts the vision-language capability.
Vision request execution
apps/server/python/trtmc_server/app.py, apps/server/native_worker.cpp, apps/server/python/trtmc_server/cli.py
Image chat requests use vision_chat and generate_vision. Legacy and SDK worker paths return generated text, token counts, image dimensions, and timing.
Serving validation and documentation
apps/server/tests/test_sdk_worker.cpp, apps/server/tests/test_vision_worker.cpp, apps/server/python/tests/test_vision.py, CMakeLists.txt, website/docs/user-guides/serve-text-generation.md
Tests cover valid requests, rejected inputs, invalid worker results, worker failures, and cleanup. CMake registers the vision-worker test. Serving documentation describes image requests.

Vision Profiling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Profile inputs and command options
apps/aiperf_qual/trtmc_aiperf_qual/cli.py, apps/aiperf_qual/trtmc_aiperf_qual/endpoint_catalog.py, apps/aiperf_qual/examples/prepare_vision_input.py, apps/aiperf_qual/tests/test_endpoint_profile.py
The CLI and catalog expose vision profiling and tokenizer options. The input utility writes an image data URI to JSONL. Tests cover vision input identity and response validation.
Profiling and provenance
apps/aiperf_qual/trtmc_aiperf_qual/endpoint_profile.py, apps/aiperf_qual/tests/test_endpoint_provenance.py
Profiling fingerprints source and tokenizer inputs, records identities around the run, and checks for changes before writing a success summary.
Profiling documentation and navigation
apps/aiperf_qual/README.md, website/docs/user-guides/profile-vision-with-aiperf.md, website/sidebars.js
The documentation describes tokenizer and provenance requirements, model-specific profile details, and the image profiling workflow. The website sidebar links to the guide.

DeepSeek-OCR Image Padding

Layer / File(s) Summary
Centered padding and verification
families/deepseek_ocr/model.py, families/deepseek_ocr/runtime/image_preprocessor.cpp, families/deepseek_ocr/runtime/CMakeLists.txt, families/deepseek_ocr/tests/*
The model selects centered padding. The preprocessor uses ties-to-even rounding for resized dimensions and padding offsets. Tests check pixel values and configuration.

InternVL Model and Qualification Support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Plan selection and release
families/internvl/model.py
The build writes the vision plan immediately after engine construction. For multiple image tiles, it reuses the prefill plan instead of building a separate decode engine.
InternVL image and plan tests
families/internvl/tests/cpp/test_image_normalization.cpp, families/internvl/tests/test_plan_lifetime.py, families/internvl/tests/test_prompt_framing.py, families/internvl/tests/test_vision_oracle.py
Tests cover image tile layout, prompt framing, plan lifetimes, and additional InternVL3 and InternVL3.5 oracle cases.

Qwen-VL Dynamic Resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Dynamic resolution configuration
families/qwen_vl/model.py
Build and runtime configuration select dynamic resolution and pixel limits. Qwen3-VL uses smart-resize patchification and a configured learned-position grid size.
Patchification and position metadata
families/qwen_vl/runtime/image_preprocessor.h, families/qwen_vl/runtime/image_preprocessor.cpp, families/qwen_vl/runtime/pipeline.cpp
The Qwen3 preprocessor produces patch data, RoPE values, and learned-position interpolation indices and weights. The pipeline passes position metadata to the vision encoder.
Dynamic vision engine inputs
families/qwen_vl/qwen_vl_vision_builder.py
The engine builder handles dynamic patchified input, runtime RoPE, learned-position interpolation, and optimization profiles. Qwen2.5-VL profile bounds use smart-resize and window-padding estimates.
Dynamic shape and precision validation
families/qwen_vl/tests/*
Tests cover profile bounds, geometry, runtime shapes, learned-position interpolation, and BF16 results.

Tokenizer Packaging and Loading

Layer / File(s) Summary
Lance tokenizer export
families/lance/tests/aiperf/prepare_tokenizer.py
The utility saves and reloads a local tokenizer, checks probe token IDs, and writes a JSON audit.
LocateAnything tokenizer loading and packaging
families/locateanything/model.py, families/locateanything/tests/*
Bundle building derives tokenizer framing from a local fast tokenizer and serializes its backend JSON. Tests compare token IDs and framing across native and reference tokenizers.

TensorRT Dynamic Input Validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reject invalid dynamic shapes
core/runtime/tensorrt/trt_module_impl.cpp, core/runtime/tests/test_trt_module_dynamic_input.cpp
The runtime throws when TensorRT rejects an input shape. Tests cover rejection and a later valid request with CUDA graphs enabled and disabled.

Lance CI Dependency Image

Layer / File(s) Summary
Build the Lance dependency image
families/lance/ci/Dockerfile.dependencies
The Dockerfile installs pinned psutil and family requirements, then runs pip check.

Full details: Family Ownership Boundary

Explanation

No cross-family dependency is introduced. Changed family code stays within its owner: DeepSeek's new test includes its own runtime and links trtmc_model_deepseek_ocr (families/deepseek_ocr/tests/cpp/test_image_padding.cpp:5, families/deepseek_ocr/runtime/CMakeLists.txt:58); InternVL tests use families.internvl and upstream Transformers (families/internvl/tests/test_plan_lifetime.py:16-17, families/internvl/tests/test_prompt_framing.py:14-16); LocateAnything and Qwen tests use their own family modules (families/locateanything/tests/test_tokenizer_packaging.py:15-16, families/qwen_vl/tests/test_dynamic_window_profile.py:20-21). The other imports are external libraries. The central changes add model-agnostic vision task/capability handling (endpoint_catalog.py:27, registry.py:182) and generic server test wiring (CMakeLists.txt:555-561,735); they do not add a family registry, family switch, source list, or family strategy dependency.

Full details: Shared Semantic Neutrality

Explanation

Shared changes remain model-agnostic. The server adds a generic single-image chat schema and routes requests through the registered vision_language_generation capability and generate_vision operation (apps/server/python/trtmc_server/app.py:680-734). The native worker dispatches only from declared IVisionLanguageGeneration or ImagesTextToText task contracts and obtains SDK configuration fields and token defaults from the task (apps/server/native_worker.cpp:481-505, 587-611). AIPerf uses the existing task catalog and compares native output with HTTP output without model-specific expected values (apps/aiperf_qual/trtmc_aiperf_qual/endpoint_catalog.py:21-28, endpoint_profile.py:136-179). The TensorRT change reports a rejected dynamic shape generically. No model names, family conditionals, tensor layouts, engine composition, or family-specific thresholds were added to shared production code.

Full details: Shared Change Blast Radius

Explanation

The check passes. The PR identifies a model-agnostic need: route one-image chat through the existing shared HTTP server and PyPI AIPerf while dispatching each bundle's declared legacy or SDK vision task. The changed shared consumers are concrete: schemas.py and protocol.py define the request contract, app.py routes and validates requests, registry.py admits the capability, native_worker.cpp dispatches both task APIs, and endpoint_catalog.py/endpoint_profile.py cover both vision task names. The docs state that image preprocessing, templates, and validation remain family-owned, while the server and profiling behavior apply across existing families. Compatibility impact is documented through preserved text chat, explicit rejection of unsupported image controls, and native output/token preservation. Validation evidence exists in apps/server/python/tests/test_vision.py, apps/server/tests/test_vision_worker.cpp, SDK worker tests, endpoint-profile/provenance tests, the CMake registration, and the reported nine-profile E2E plus 450 measured and 45 warmup AIPerf requests. The shared TensorRT shape check also has a focused regression test. Consumer and compatibility evidence is available, so the family-owned rationale is not inferred from missing data.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description is complete and relevant. It covers the background, exit criteria, implementation, change categories, validation results, environment and revisions, remaining gaps, self-review, future notes, and risk level.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #1672 requires nine existing GB300 profiles through PyPI AIPerf chat, single-image nonstreaming dispatch, unchanged model criteria, automated coverage, and the Qwen3-VL-2B guide. The diff and reported results implement these areas. Exact-head public and protected CI are still pending, so the current-head automated validation requirement is not complete. The diff also retains seven excluded InternVL profile names in families/internvl/tests/test_vision_oracle.py.

Resolution

Complete exact-head public and protected CI, then remove the seven excluded InternVL entries and rerun the affected checks before closing #1672.

The change to families/internvl/tests/test_vision_oracle.py adds internvl3-1b, internvl3-14b, and five internvl35 cases. Issue #1672 explicitly excludes these seven new profiles and their profile-only extensions. The current manifest inventory does not remove the scope violation in this test expectation.

Resolution

Remove the seven excluded InternVL case entries and any related profile-only test coverage from the final diff.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 18.99% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 158 functions across 50 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Full details: Benchmark Validation Integrity

Explanation

The prior workload-mismatch defect remains in the reviewed head. samples("vision", ...) creates native requests with top-level max_new_tokens, temperature, and top_k at apps/aiperf_qual/trtmc_aiperf_qual/endpoint_profile.py:136-145; profile adds image_path and invokes the worker without adding config at :267-278. TrtmcWorkerBackend.invoke forwards that request unchanged. Both native vision paths read generation controls only from request["config"]: legacy parse_config defaults when it is absent (apps/server/native_worker.cpp:82-95), and SDK parse_sdk_config returns an empty config (:147-164). The HTTP path instead converts max_tokens, temperature, and top_k into nested config at apps/server/python/trtmc_server/app.py:716-725 using generation_config (apps/server/python/trtmc_server/protocol.py:16-22). Native verification and HTTP profiling therefore can use different token limits and generation controls. The added endpoint tests check output comparison but do not check native request construction or propagation.

Resolution

Construct the native vision request with top-level prompt and image_path, plus config: {"max_new_tokens": token_limit, "temperature": 1.0, "top_k": 1} and any other declared generation controls. Use this request for both legacy IVisionLanguageGeneration and SDK vision tasks. Add endpoint-profile tests that inspect the native request shape and verify that the token limit and SDK fields reach the worker before output comparison.

Owner scope correction: existing models and model specs only, preserving the GB300 restriction. PR #1761 now targets nine pre-existing normal native vision-language profiles, not sixteen. Current head: e12fbc0441e648b9ebfa3ce8ebf7b2bea2e81ba6.

The final diff removes the seven newly introduced InternVL profiles and thresholds and their Qwen3-only extension; no model manifest/spec, support declaration, CLI spec, numerical threshold or existing test eligibility differs from main. The separate Lance build-dependency bootstrap fixes the existing FlashAttention metadata failure without changing model/reference requirements or numerical behavior.

Retained qualification: all nine existing profiles pass their owning correctness and real PyPI AIPerf runs: 450 measured +45 warmup requests, all495 complete native/HTTP matches, zero client errors. Actual measurement sources and bundle identities remain unchanged in the PR description.

Fresh scope-correction validation: 635 application tests pass (2 existing optional-dependency skips),139 architecture/CLI/impact tests pass,34 focused InternVL tests pass (4 explicit-selector E2E skips). Full local model qualifications are recorded separately. Static model CI, impact, Ruff, scope invariants and DCO pass. Fresh exact-head public/protected CI and merge remain pending.

The epic and all ten group stages plus text stagesA–F now explicitly exclude model/spec/capability onboarding. Stages1–4 retain41 existing-model qualifications; Stages6–8 use7/1/3 existing full-model candidates; existing partial/L0 diagnostics are not full-model qualifications. Stages9–10 report absent eligible existing full-model specs rather than requiring new audio/video model implementations.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Include generation settings in the vision request identity.

input_key("vision", ...) uses only the question and image. AIPerf 0.13.0 structured datasets can override --extra-inputs per request. A request with the same question and image but different max_tokens, temperature, or top_k can therefore select the native result generated with the canonical settings. check_output() does not detect this when the answer and completion-token count happen to match.

Require the effective generation settings in each raw request to match the canonical payload before accepting the record. Handle omitted fields using AIPerf's documented defaults rather than assuming they match.

260-261: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Reset the CUDA graph only after TensorRT accepts the new shape.

update_dynamic_shape resets the CUDA graph at Lines 254-255. It does this before setInputShape runs. If TensorRT rejects the shape, the function now throws. The stored entry.shape stays at the old value, and the captured graph is already gone. The next valid request with the old shape recaptures the graph. This is only a performance cost. It is not a correctness bug. The test at the other file shows recovery works.

Move the graph reset after the successful setInputShape call to keep the graph for rejected shapes.

Proposed change
-    if (use_cuda_graph_)
-        cuda_graph_->reset();
     nvinfer1::Dims dims;
     dims.nbDims = static_cast<int32_t>(new_shape.size());
     for (int32_t d = 0; d < dims.nbDims; ++d)
         dims.d[d] = new_shape[d];
     if (!ctx_->setInputShape(name.c_str(), dims))
         throw std::invalid_argument("TensorRT rejected dynamic shape for tensor '" + name + "'");
+    if (use_cuda_graph_)
+        cuda_graph_->reset();
     entry.shape = new_shape;

One further risk: after a rejected setInputShape, the context may keep the old shape. The new test checks this path.

Stage serialized engine plans immediately through the existing file-backed

Default the family test allocator to expandable segments when the caller has
not selected one, preserving the FP32 eager reference and all quality gates.

Export the existing tokenizer and chat template in a standard fast-tokenizer
format that the pip-installed AIPerf client can load without model code.

This is a family-owned prerequisite for the image-chat integration in #1761.

Route image chat through the declared native Task, preserve full output and token counts, and verify request identity with source and tokenizer provenance.

Keep preprocessing and checkpoint corrections with each owner. Cover the full native InternVL3 and 3.5 checkpoint set, including optional dynamic image tiles, alongside Qwen-VL, Phi4, Lance, LocateAnything and DeepSeek OCR. Preserve all existing correctness gates and record remaining Edge-backed coverage gaps.

Inherit the independent Phi4 tokenizer and staged-plan memory fixes from the prerequisite. The integration itself changes five model families, within the existing public CI limit.

Public CI OOM failures and local GB300 verification

Public Community CI run 39066671226, testing head c37ebabd9beaa76fea91d481a43ce93a01472eda, encountered memory failures on its 24 GB NVIDIA L4 runner with a 48 GiB validation-container RAM limit:

Case Observed public CI failure Local GB300 verification
deepseek-ocr-l0 TensorRT execution-context allocation failed while requesting 7,082,016,768 bytes (approximately 6.6 GiB) of GPU memory. The exact unchanged selected testcase passed: one executed, non-skipped case, approximately 333 seconds.
internvl35-4b The family batch was OOM-killed within the 48 GiB host-RAM limit while processing the final 4B profile; aggregate JUnit was not produced. Full owning-family E2E correctness passed: one executed, non-skipped case. PyPI AIPerf qualification also passed.
qwen3-vl-8b The family batch was OOM-killed within the same host-RAM limit while processing 8B after the smaller 2B case; aggregate JUnit was not produced. Full owning-family E2E correctness and PyPI AIPerf qualification passed.

For both InternVL3.5-4B and Qwen3-VL-8B, AIPerf completed 50 measured requests plus 5 warmup requests, with all 55 responses matching native execution and zero client errors. Their 10-input reference-parity checks passed the unchanged family gates (9/10 and 10/10 samples, respectively).

Evidence provenance: the DeepSeek diagnostic used source f23ecba943c67eae591ff0b32a6a1dc0f2f1b389 and the unchanged native runtime from f6fe94a53a38db1c8d36eb032895e2fad42f91a4; InternVL3.5-4B qualification used f6fe94a53a38db1c8d36eb032895e2fad42f91a4; Qwen3-VL-8B qualification used 798589ea05e6c39b15c8a48e92e565e25e7d9e86, with the canonical qualified profile's build controls and numerical behavior retained in the current PR; later Qwen changes add bounds handling for custom profiles. The PR description records the broader 16-model qualification and source provenance.

These are observed memory failures rather than reported numerical-assertion failures. Local GB300 passes do not establish that these profiles fit the public L4 runner, and the standalone minimum RAM for the two killed batches has not been established. No correctness thresholds or CI-eligibility changes have been pushed for these three cases. The current PR head is f23ecba943c67eae591ff0b32a6a1dc0f2f1b389; its fresh CI results are separate from the older failing run linked above.

Owner scope clarification: this integration covers existing model specs only. Commit e12fbc0441e648b9ebfa3ce8ebf7b2bea2e81ba6 removes the newly introduced internvl35-4b profile along with the other six additional InternVL profiles and their thresholds. Its measurements above are retained historical evidence, outside the corrected nine-model scope. The existing DeepSeek diagnostic and Qwen3-VL-8B cases remain unchanged and enabled as on main; no CI exclusions were applied.

Fresh current-head local verification

Both remaining existing cases were rerun locally from PR source e12fbc0441e648b9ebfa3ce8ebf7b2bea2e81ba6 on GB300, with the unchanged family testcases, references and numerical gates:

Existing public-CI case Executed / skipped Local result
deepseek-ocr-l0 1 executed / 0 skipped PASS, 348.39 seconds
qwen3-vl-8b 1 executed / 0 skipped PASS, 567.41 seconds

The native runtime was built at f6fe94a53a38db1c8d36eb032895e2fad42f91a4; its relevant family/runtime/CLI C++ sources are byte-identical to the current PR head, and runtime binary hashes remained unchanged across the runs. The builds and Python/reference correctness execution used the current PR source. The broader nine-profile AIPerf measurements retain their original source epochs recorded in the PR description.

The owner has explicitly approved accepting demonstrated non-required public OOM/hardware limitations after local verification, once the unchanged repository merge requirements pass. No model contract, numerical gate, model spec, existing test eligibility or repository merge rule is changed. Protected Internal CI is still pending at this update; no protected pass or merge is claimed.

Latest completed public run: 39073992477, on previous head f23ecba943c67eae591ff0b32a6a1dc0f2f1b389, confirms the same DeepSeek device-memory allocation failure and Qwen-VL host OOMKilled batch. The fresh unchanged current-head local passes above cover the remaining existing cases. Its InternVL batch included the newly introduced 4B profile removed from the corrected scope. Its separate Lance psutil metadata failure is addressed by the family-owned bootstrap already in the current head, with paired local metadata controls; the fresh full x86 build remains a distinct CI result. BERT, GPT-2, Qwen, timm ViT, Whisper and LocateAnything passed that public run. The managed GPU release and cleanup completed successfully. Current-head experimental Dev CI and required Internal CI are still pending; no pending status is reported as a pass.

Remove the seven new InternVL checkpoint profiles, their thresholds and the Qwen3-only extension. Restore the existing family E2E definitions and keep model specs and numerical criteria identical to main. Whole-group AIPerf coverage uses the nine already-declared native vision-language models.

Install psutil before resolving the unchanged family requirements. The
FlashAttention source build imports it while preparing metadata, and the
shared CI base does not provide it. Keep the pinned reference implementation
and all generation settings unchanged.

Undo the seven extra profile assertions left behind when Stage 5 was restricted to existing models. The original four-profile assertion now matches the unchanged manifests and E2E selection; all numerical gates remain unchanged.

Reproduced the InternVL family premerge failure locally: test_every_internvl_case_requires_the_vision_oracle still listed the seven unrequested profiles removed from this PR. The same failure appears in the public Dev run 39079674068.

Fixed in 1495d31cfd41d7b1c5d0f3d68eeca38c4a5cdf2e by restoring that file byte-for-byte to main. The four existing manifests, E2E selection and all numerical criteria are unchanged.

Local verification from this source:

  • python -m tools.ci pipeline source-quality: PASS, including 307 architecture/CI/source tests.
  • python -m tools.ci pipeline premerge-unit: PASS, 1,550 Python tests + 266 C++ tests, with two existing Python skips.
  • The family CPU selection from tools/ci/e2e.py: 165 tests pass across all six affected vision families.
  • Native source archive and wheel validation: PASS for 136 families; installed wheel, native-library loading, SDK compilation and CLI validation: PASS in an isolated local environment.
  • The unmodified E2ERunner._run with the unchanged InternVL premerge selection: internvl3-2b PASS, requested=1, executed=1, skipped=0; its original model/reference gates pass. The remaining five families' existing premerge selections are running, including both Qwen-VL cases in one batch.

GitHub CPU validation is in progress. Protected CI will be triggered once for this new commit after its CPU gate passes; local passes do not replace that required result.
