…acked prefill cache) PR7 (NNX-native MaxEngine inference) made the core prefill/generate/insert path work under pure_nnx=True but left three serving features raising NotImplementedError on the NNX path. This promotes all three to NNX-native. Linen is preserved byte-for-byte: the original model.apply(..., mutable=["cache"]) calls are unchanged, just moved into else: branches, and every NNX edit is gated `if config.pure_nnx:`. maxengine.py: - _prefill_multisampling_jit: drops the NotImplementedError; adds a pure_nnx branch that runs prefill through _nnx_run_model (MODEL_MODE_PREFILL, batch=1) with a fresh _nnx_init_cache_dict. The loop that draws num_samples first tokens from the shared logits is unchanged. - prefill_concat: same swap; the packed positions and segment ids thread through _nnx_run_model unchanged. - stack_prefill_result_cache=True: now supported for both scan_layers values. scan_layers=True already stacks the per-layer KV cache on axis 0 (the Linen post-stack shape), so _maybe_stack/_maybe_unstack_prefill_result_cache are no-ops and prefill_kv_cache_shardings stays the full tree. scan_layers=False keeps unstacked per-layer subtrees under cache["decoder"]["layers"][i] (int keys), so _maybe_stack stacks them into one subtree with a leading layer axis, _maybe_unstack splits it back into the int-keyed per-layer dict that bulk_insert/_insert_jit walk, and _load_params_nnx prepends a layer axis to each prefix-sharding spec (the NNX analog of the Linen P(None, *spec) + ["decoder"]["layers_0"] reshape). tests/integration/maxengine_test.py: - New _build_linen_params helper and a shared _stack_prefill_roundtrip helper. - test_prefill_multisampling_nnx, test_prefill_concat_nnx: NNX vs Linen result-shape parity, finite logits + cache. - test_stack_prefill_result_cache_nnx (scan_layers=True) and test_stack_prefill_result_cache_scan_layers_false_nnx (scan_layers=False): prefill -> insert -> generate round-trip, layer-stacked leaves, finite logits, next_pos advances. Remaining NNX MaxEngine carve-outs are quantization (PR9) and LoRA (PR8), which are other PRs' scope.
Closes the QK-Clip TODO and migrates the remaining Linen-only checkpoint utilities to NNX. Linen paths preserved byte-for-byte (every NNX edit is gated on `config.pure_nnx` or runtime state-shape detection). QK-Clip: - qk_clip_utils.apply_qk_clip_nnx mutates state.model in place via nnx.split -> pure-dict tree_map -> nnx.replace_by_pure_dict -> nnx.update. Accepts both the production NNX intermediate shape (self_attention.attention_op.max_logits) and the synthetic-fixture shape from the existing Linen tests (self_attention.max_logits). - train.py train_step dispatches to apply_qk_clip_nnx for NNX, removing the prior TODO at the QK-Clip call site. Checkpoint utilities (NNX paths added): - standalone_checkpointer.checkpoint_loop builds an NNX init_state_fn under pure_nnx; add_entropy_to_checkpoint dispatches across Linen TrainState, NNX TrainStateNNX Module, and post-split nnx.State shapes. - generate_param_only_checkpoint: NNX init_state_fn under pure_nnx; _possibly_unroll_params_nnx slices scanned NNX layers via dict-style state mutation; _save_decode_checkpoint_nnx writes a bf16 pure-dict tree to orbax. Parallel LoRA decode flow operates on the single-nested LoRA delta tree from PR8's get_lora_abstract_state_nnx. - convert_gpt3_ckpt_from_paxml: parallel NNX state_map keystr translation (.params['params']<rest> -> .model<rest>.value, etc.). End-to-end paxml -> NNX conversion is wired but not yet validated on hardware. Tests: - qk_clip_test: 7 new NNX cases covering attention-type guard, MLA wq_b/wkv_b math, both intermediate shapes, no-clip-below-threshold, missing-stats resilience, Linen<->NNX numeric parity. - standalone_checkpointer_nnx_test (new): 3 cases for adam mu/nu overwrite on TrainStateNNX Module shape, no mutation of state.model params, post-split nnx.State shape from setup_training_state. - generate_param_only_checkpoint_nnx_test (new): 3 cases for scanned layer slicing (Llama-style; DeepSeek-style dense+moe split; LoRA delta unroll on the single-nested NNX shape). NNX + AQT in MaxEngine and the layerwise_quantization NNX path are split into the follow-up PR9.5.
Builds on PR9. Migrates the NNX + AQT integration so MaxEngine can both
load pre-quantized checkpoints directly and convert full-precision
checkpoints to int8 on load. Also bundles a pre-existing gpt3 prefill
bug surfaced by the AQT end-to-end validation.
NNX + AQT in MaxEngine:
- model_creation_utils threads quant_mode_str ("train" | "convert" |
"serve") through from_config / create_model /
get_nnx_create_model_fn / create_nnx_abstract_model /
from_pretrained. Default "train" preserves existing callers; "serve"
propagates to configure_quantization so AQT layers don't materialize
the full-precision kernel when the on-disk checkpoint already
carries qrhs scale factors.
- maxengine.__init__ selects the quant mode from
config.checkpoint_is_quantized; _load_params_nnx drops its
NotImplementedError. Two paths: pre-quantized
(checkpoint_is_quantized=True) loads via quant_mode_str="serve";
full-precision + quantization=int8 loads in TRAIN mode and AQT
layers quantize per-forward (same numerical result for absmax
calibration).
- layerwise_quantization._load_and_quantize_nnx: whole-model NNX
convert path. Loads full-precision in TRAIN mode, transfers kernels
into a CONVERT-mode model, runs forward to populate qrhs.frozen via
the ToNNX(AqtDotGeneral) bridge, strips kernels at quantized paths,
saves serve-mode-shaped state.
Sharding helpers and from_pretrained QTensor handling (5 chained fixes
that kept the serve-mode reload from working):
- maxtext_utils.get_nnx_named_sharding_with_scan_axis emits a
parallel-tree of replicated NamedSharding leaves when a Variable's
value is a composite pytree (AQT serve-mode QTensor with a qvalue
int8 leaf and a list of bf16 scale leaves).
- model_creation_utils.from_pretrained: drops a redundant
jax.set_mesh wrap in create_nnx_abstract_model that broke serve-mode
AQT under Flax 0.12.6. _build_value_target / _free_device_memory /
_unwrap_for_align use Variable.get_value() instead of v[...]
indexing for QTensor leaves (QTensor.__getitem__ trips on the
LogicallyPartitioned wrapper around qvalue). Widens the restore
filter beyond nnx.Param to cover the aqt-typed qrhs.frozen Variable
type. Skips QTensor leaves in the per-axis shape-alignment dispatch
(their saved shape already matches the model). _build_value_target
strips Partitioned wrappers around composite-leaf values so the
restore tree path matches the on-disk layout (LogicallyPartitioned
was adding an extra .value key under each QTensor leaf, which made
orbax silently fill the path with zero-init values).
gpt3 prefill / autoregressive fix (pre-existing, surfaced here):
- Gpt3MultiHeadAttention.__call__ invoked attention_op(...) without
ever calling update_kv_caches to build cached_values, so any
non-TRAIN forward (prefill or autoregressive) tripped the
`assert prefill_kv_cache` check. Mirror the standard Attention
plumbing in attentions.py: __init__ constructs a KVCache_0 module
when model_mode != MODEL_MODE_TRAIN, threads
max_prefill_predict_length into AttentionOp; __call__ calls
self.KVCache_0(...) and passes [prefill_kv_cache, ar_kv_cache] as
cached_values to attention_op. TRAIN-mode shape unchanged.
Tests:
- layerwise_quantization_nnx_test (new): 3 cases for
_strip_kernels_at_quantized_paths covering quantized removal,
non-quantized preservation (norms, embeddings), mixed-shape trees.
- aqt_serve_roundtrip_nnx_test (new): end-to-end regression test that
builds a small NNX model in CONVERT mode with int8, runs a forward
to populate qrhs.frozen via the ToNNX bridge, saves the
serve-mode-shape state to a tmp local orbax checkpoint, reloads via
from_pretrained(quant_mode_str="serve"), and asserts every saved
qrhs.frozen.qvalue array byte-matches what came back. Guards the
full chain of QTensor / Partitioned / filter fixes.
- maxengine_test: replaced test_quantize_raises_for_nnx with
test_quantize_passes_gate_for_nnx; added
test_load_pre_quantized_nnx_passes_quant_gate and
test_quantized_prefill_nnx_train_mode (real numerical verification
with quantization=int8 + random params + TRAIN mode).
End-to-end on TPU (gpt3-52k): convert-mode forward + qrhs.frozen
extraction + serve-mode-shape save + reload via
from_pretrained(quant_mode_str="serve") + maxengine.load_params +
quantized prefill forward all work; loaded qrhs.frozen.qvalue
byte-matches the on-disk state.
Replaces the PR9.5 NNX vocab-tiling MVP (chunked forward + default
autograd backward) with a jax.custom_vjp that mirrors the Linen path's
backward-memory savings, then carves out the output-head params so the
custom_vjp's residuals + grad accumulator scale with LM-head size, not
with the full model. Linen vocab_tiling_linen_loss is byte-for-byte
unchanged. Call sites in train.py / pyconfig_deprecated.py /
configs/types.py are unchanged.
Custom_vjp + output-head carve-out (vocabulary_tiling.py):
- Outside the custom_vjp: 3-way nnx.split with a callable path filter
(_is_output_head_param_path) matching {token_embedder,
shared_embedding, decoder_norm, logits_dense} — the only nnx.Param
paths apply_output_head touches. Returns (graphdef, head_params,
other_params, rest).
- Custom_vjp primals: (head_params, other_params, rest, hidden_states,
labels, segmentation). Only head_params and hidden_states are
differentiated; other_params + rest are threaded through as
non-differentiated primals so their tracers don't have to cross both
the custom_vjp and the inner lax.scan boundary (which previously
caused UnexpectedTracerError under logits_via_embedding=True).
- Forward (_chunked_cross_entropy_loss_fwd): reshapes to
(num_vocab_tiling, vocab_tile_size, ...) and runs lax.scan whose body
rebuilds the model per chunk via nnx.merge(graphdef, chunk_head,
chunk_other, chunk_rest, copy=True) and calls
logits_from_hidden_states. Initial scan accumulator is fp32 (was
hidden_states.dtype previously — caused a lax.scan carry dtype
mismatch with bf16 hidden_states since cross_entropy_with_logits
always returns fp32). Residuals are (chunk_head, chunk_other,
chunk_rest, reshaped_*, batch/seq/emb).
- Backward (_chunked_cross_entropy_loss_bwd): a second lax.scan whose
body builds loss_fn_for_vjp = lambda p, h: ..., calls
jax.vjp(loss_fn_for_vjp, chunk_head_params, hidden_chunk),
accumulates grad_head via tree.map(add), emits per-chunk grad_hidden.
Chain-rules grad_head *= loss_cotangent and dtype-casts to each
primal's dtype (custom_vjp requires this). chunk_other_params and
chunk_rest cotangents are explicit tree_map(jnp.zeros_like, ...) zero
pytrees, NOT None — None makes JAX synthesize zeros at AOT trace time
with axis-0 stacking (jax.scan convention) for nnx.scan-stacked
transformer-layer params, which carry axis-1 stacking (nnx
convention), and the cotangent-shape check fails as
"Expected cotangent type bfloat16[E,M] for primal type bfloat16[E,M],
but got bfloat16[L,E,M]". Materializing the zeros ties the cotangent
shape to the primal shape exactly.
- Correctness: logits_from_hidden_states provably depends only on
head_params; the gradient w.r.t. other_params through this loss is
exactly zero. When train.py also calls the full model forward (which
produces hidden_states), transformer-layer gradients flow back
through grad_hidden_states → outer backward, unaffected by the
carve-out.
Supporting fixes (touched for the carve-out to work end-to-end):
- nnx_decoders.py::apply_output_head logits_via_embedding=True branch
reads embedding_table = shared_embedding.embedding[...] instead of
the deprecated .value shim. The .value shim registers the access in
NNX mutation tracking, which JAX detects as a tracer leak when the
embedding is closure-captured / threaded across the custom_vjp +
lax.scan boundaries. The Linen branch is unchanged.
- models.py: deletes dead-code self.hidden_states = None and
if num_vocab_tiling > 1: self.hidden_states = hidden_state from the
NNX Transformer class. Two lines left over from an early PR5
implementation idea — neither path actually reads
model.hidden_states (Linen reads via mutable=["intermediates"]; NNX
reads via nnx.pop(model, nnx.Intermediate) from the decoder's sown
("decoder", "hidden_states") intermediate). Without this fix, AOT
compile under pure_nnx=True + num_vocab_tiling>1 raised
ValueError: Cannot assign data value of type 'LinearizeTracer' to
static attribute 'hidden_states' of Pytree type 'Transformer' —
would have silently broken any post-PR11 user with vocab tiling on.
Tests (tiling_test.py — new VocabTilingNNXTest class with 9 TPU tests):
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_non_tied_embedding / _tied_embedding: loss +
grad parity vs. full-vocab xent reference for both LM-head modes.
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_total_z_loss_value_parity: asserts the second
tuple element matches the reference (was untested before).
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_padded_segmentation: half-padded mask;
exercises the segmentation != 0 mask branch and asserts padded loss
is strictly less than unpadded.
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_grad_over_hidden_states: argnums=1
differentiation; exercises the custom_vjp's second-primal cotangent
path (grad_reshaped_hidden_states), shape + dtype + value parity.
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_bf16_hidden_states: bf16 inputs with rtol/atol
loosened to 5e-2; asserts grad_h.dtype == bf16 (the bwd dtype-cast
preserves the primal's dtype). Caught the fp32-accumulator bug.
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_z_loss_zero: z_loss_multiplier=0;
total_z_loss == 0.0 exactly and grad parity holds.
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_num_vocab_tiling_variants: runs n ∈ {2, 4, 8}
and asserts identical loss + grads (catches off-by-one in
vocab_tile_size and scan/reshape interactions).
- test_nnx_vocab_tiling_other_params_get_zero_grad (carve-out
invariant): asserts every non-head leaf has gradient exactly zero
AND at least one head leaf has non-zero gradient (so the test can't
trivially pass by zeroing everything). Catches filter bugs (e.g.
forgetting that NNX names the embedder token_embedder while Linen
names it shared_embedding) and bwd zero-shape bugs.
AOT compile coverage (train_compile_test.py):
- Removed the now-stale pytest.skip("Vocab tiling not supported on
NNX.") in test_vocab_tiling_bf16.
- Added test_vocab_tiling_bf16_nnx (cpu_only): AOT-compiles the train
step under pure_nnx=true + enable_nnx=true + pure_nnx_decoder=true
with num_vocab_tiling=4 and weight_dtype=bfloat16. Surfaced both the
models.py dead-code regression and the cotangent-axis-ordering issue
the explicit-zeros bwd fixes.
Tests pass: 18 in tiling + AOT (7 Linen UTs + 9 NNX UTs + 2 AOT, one
Linen and one NNX); 52 in adjacent NNX surfaces (train_nnx, dpo_nnx,
grpo_nnx, lora_utils_nnx, maxengine, qk_clip, aqt_serve_roundtrip_nnx)
— regression check for the nnx_decoders.py change.
…X default flip
Pre-flip safety: PR11 will flip pure_nnx/enable_nnx/pure_nnx_decoder from
False to True in base.yml. Some existing tests are Linen-coupled and would
either silently switch to NNX (and break) or silently SKIP after that flip.
Pin them to Linen explicitly so they keep exercising the Linen path, with
no behavior change today (the pin matches the current default).
tests/unit/tiling_test.py:
LossAndGradientCorrectnessTest builds models via transformer_as_linen and
exercises the Linen vocab_tiling path. Extend self.base_config in setUp
with enable_nnx=False, pure_nnx=False, pure_nnx_decoder=False, then drop
the 6 stale pytest.skip("We currently don't support vocab tiling on NNX
module.") guards (NNX-side coverage lives in VocabTilingNNXTest in the
same file, added in PR10).
tests/unit/pipeline_parallelism_test.py:
Pipeline parallelism does not yet have an NNX path (deferred to PR11.5).
Add _LINEN_PIN class const and append *self._LINEN_PIN to the 6
train_main arg lists in test_full_train_circular,
test_full_train_circular_pipeline_ag_per_repeat,
test_full_train_non_circular, test_subset_layers, test_full_train_fp8,
and test_full_train_nanoo_fp8. The unit-style
assert_pipeline_same_output_and_grad tests bypass the dispatch by
calling pipeline.create_pipeline + SimpleDecoderLayerToLinen directly,
so they are flag-immune and need no change.
The PR6-PR10 sequence promoted every routed-to-Linen feature to NNX-native (DPO/PR6, MaxEngine/PR7, LoRA+GRPO/PR8, QK-Clip + checkpoint utilities/PR9, AQT + serve-mode/PR9.5, vocab tiling custom_vjp/PR10). With those gaps closed, NNX is the production path; this commit makes it the default. Empirical break-test on CPU (pytest before/after the flip across tiling_test, train_compile_test, sharding_compare_test, maxtext_utils_test, maxengine_test) showed zero flip-induced failures - every CPU unit-test failure pre-existed on PR10 tip. TPU smoke verified end-to-end: gemma2-2b 3-step train under the new defaults logged "pure_nnx: True" in pyconfig and produced loss 13.04 -> 12.32 -> 11.82 (decreasing, no NaN/inf, no Traceback). Linen-only test files were already pinned in the prior commit so no per-test breakage from the flip. base.yml: enable_nnx, pure_nnx_decoder, pure_nnx all flip False -> True. No use_nnx_pipeline flag is added: PR10 tip has no NNX pipeline path to opt out of, so a one-valued flag would be dead weight. Pipeline tests keep their Linen pin from the prior commit; the eventual NNX pipeline work (PR11.5) will introduce its own opt-in if needed. Sharding goldens not regenerated: tests/unit/sharding_compare_test.py already pins enable_nnx=False, pure_nnx=False, pure_nnx_decoder=False explicitly when invoking the dump utility, so existing goldens at tests/utils/sharding_info/ stay valid against the flipped default.
…NX::test_nnx_model_dispatches_to_tree_map_with_path
1. Sanitize unmapped logical axes to None in maxtext_utils.py get_nnx_named_sharding_with_scan_axis to prevent compilation ValueError. 2. Fix qk_clip_utils.py broadcast shape mismatch (axis=0 to axis=-2) causing TypeError. 3. Update max_utils_test.py unscan utility to correctly parse TrainStateNNX and its parameters/sharding trees. 4. Fix muon_utils_test.py NNX dict mapping assertIsNone() against raw objects rather than . 5. Patch train_distill and train_sft to explicitly nnx.pop(Intermediate) to prevent GraphDef mutation ValueErrors. 6. Update diloco.py to use nnx.split instead of the deprecated filter() method for param extraction. 7. Update diloco_test.py to execute pure NNX training loop simulations instead of legacy Linen.
After flipping pure_nnx/enable_nnx/pure_nnx_decoder to True, several
integration tests broke because their code paths assumed Linen. Fixes:
- maxengine_test: remove the Linen-only test_basic_prefill / test_basic_decode
(they build the model with transformer_as_linen but the engine now expects
NNX state). The NNX path is already covered by test_basic_prefill_nnx /
test_basic_decode_nnx. Drop the now-unused imports and get_data helper.
- train_sft_deprecated: support the NNX train loop. Split the TrainStateNNX
into GraphDef + flat state before jit, only pass a dropout rng on the Linen
path (the NNX step takes (state, batch)), and read setup params via
nnx.split on the NNX path.
- quantizations.maybe_quantize_model: qwix.quantize_model traces NNX modules
and needs example inputs, so pass dummy decoder tokens/positions for the
NNX path. Fixes the fp8 sparsity smoke test.
- generate_param_only_checkpoint (NNX param-only flow):
- checkpointing._load_full_state_from_path: restore into a pure dict, since
NNX checkpoints are saved as pure dicts; a boxed nnx.State did not match.
- read opt_state from state.optimizer.opt_state on the NNX path.
- save only nnx.Param leaves (the rng PRNGKeyArray can't be cast to bf16)
and wrap each leaf as {"value": ...} so from_pretrained can read it back.
- skip the int8 case: it is a convert-on-load scenario (the fp32 training
checkpoint has no AqtDotGeneral state the int8 model expects); tracked as
a follow-up alongside layerwise_quantization.
…product test NNX int8 parameter-only generation requires a convert-on-load setup, which causes a ValueError since the fp32 training checkpoint lacks the AqtDotGeneral state that the target int8 model expects. This aligns the GPU/dot-product test with the existing skip in the TPU/autoselected test variant.
fp8 Qwix stateful quant crashes under NNX (tracer leak / pytree ValueError via ToLinen). Skip the fp8_full and fp8_full_with_sparsity cases until b/509790223 is fixed.
PR#11 flips the defaults to NNX, so the Linen reference engine in the prefill_multisampling/prefill_concat parity tests silently became NNX and crashed (device_put State-vs-dict), and test_stack_and_unstack_prefill_cache hit the NNX no-op branch. Drop the Linen comparisons and assert the NNX result shapes directly, rewrite the cache test for the NNX scan_layers=False path, and remove _build_linen_params and its imports.
