[CRITICAL Algorithm] IQ blocks are packed along the output axis here, not the input axis.
What's wrong: three lines above (line 1887) merged_weight is transposed from Megatron's [E, out, in] to HF's [E, in, out]. _get_iq_weight_state → quantize_iq{1_s,2_xs} always forms its 256-element GGML blocks along weight.shape[-1] (see quantize_iq2_xs: blocks = weight.contiguous().reshape(-1, 256), packed_shape = (*weight.shape[:-1], weight.shape[-1] // 256, bytes)). After the transpose that last axis is out_features, so each super-block groups 256 output channels instead of 256 contiguous input elements.
Same defect at line 2023 in _pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss, where the transpose at line 1963 is unconditional (and for linear_fc1 the gate/up interleave then permutes the last axis again before packing).
Why it matters:
- It silently disagrees with calibration.
iq2_xs_fake_quant/iq1_s_fake_quantcallquantize_iq*(inputs)on the module's own[out, in]weight, so PTQ evaluated blocks alongin. The exported checkpoint therefore does not reproduce the model that was measured — accuracy loss with no error raised wheneverout_features % 256 == 0. - When
out_features % 256 != 0(e.g. anffn_hidden_sizeof 1408 or 5120·k that isn't a multiple of 256)validate_weightraises a confusing "requires the last weight dimension to be divisible by 256" error naming a shape the user never configured. - The dense paths (
_populate_state_dict, the qkv/gate-up splits) pack the untransposed[out, in]weight, so fused-MoE experts end up with a different block axis than every other layer in the same checkpoint.
Note the HF exporter already establishes the right convention for exactly this case: _export_quantized_weight wraps BMM-expert packing in maybe_transpose_expert_weight_dimensions(...) → quantize → transpose back, specifically to keep blocks on the contraction axis.
Suggested fix: pack before the layout transpose, i.e. in both methods pack the stacked [E, out, in] tensor and only then move the payload into HF order (the packed tensor is [E, out, in//256, bytes], so the logical transpose has to be applied to merged_weight first and the packing deferred, or the pack has to be done on the pre-transpose tensor and the consumer told the blocks live on in). Concretely, for _pack_name_remapping:
merged_weight = torch.stack(weight_list, dim=0) # [E, out, in]
if qformat in (QUANTIZATION_IQ1_S, QUANTIZATION_IQ2_XS):
# GGML blocks must run along the contraction (in_features) axis, which is
# merged_weight's last dim *before* the HF [E, in, out] transpose. Pack here
# and skip the transpose; a packed payload cannot be transposed afterwards.
self._state_dict.update(self._get_iq_weight_state(prefix, merged_weight, qformat))
return
# Megatron is [num_experts, out, in]; most HF layouts want [num_experts, in, out].
if transpose:
merged_weight = merged_weight.transpose(-2, -1).contiguous()
...and mirror it in _pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss (bias/input_scale handling still needs to run, so hoist the pack rather than early-returning there). Whichever convention you land on, please state the block axis for fused MoE experts explicitly in docs/source/deployment/3_unified_hf.rst — the current "IQ weight representation" section only describes the dense [out, in] case.

Fixed in f2d3a83. Fused experts are now packed per expert while each logical weight is still [out, in], so 256-value blocks remain on the contraction axis. Packed CPU payloads are stacked without a post-pack transpose. Exact packed-byte coverage was added for the standard and GPT-OSS expert paths.

[IMPORTANT Compatibility] This is the only export format that turns weight from a Parameter into a buffer.
What's wrong: every other branch of this function ends at line 846 with setattr(sub_module, weight_name, nn.Parameter(quantized_weight, requires_grad=False)), and that already covers non-float packed payloads — pack_int4_in_uint8 returns uint8 and INT4_AWQ stores it as a Parameter (integer dtypes are legal for nn.Parameter as long as requires_grad=False). The IQ path instead does delattr + register_buffer, silently changing the module contract for this one format.
Why it matters: it breaks any consumer that enumerates weights via named_parameters() / isinstance(m.weight, nn.Parameter) rather than state_dict(). The PR already had to add a compensating branch in moe_utils.py:221 for exactly this reason, and the same guard will be needed at every future call site. TiedWeightMap and sync_tied_input_amax (quant_utils.py:1852) both gate on isinstance(m.weight, torch.nn.Parameter); they happen to be built in _prepare_model_for_export before packing today, so nothing is broken right now, but the invariant is one reordering away from a silent tied-weight dedup miss.
Suggested fix: keep the weight a Parameter so the module contract is uniform across formats, and revert the moe_utils.py special case:
packed_weight, _ = quantize_iq(weight.to(dtype))
setattr(sub_module, weight_name, nn.Parameter(packed_weight, requires_grad=False))
maybe_clear_cuda_cache()
return(This also drops the delattr/hardcoded-"weight" asymmetry — the weight_name != "weight" guard above then only needs to exist for the quantizer_attr_names bookkeeping, not for the assignment.)

Fixed in f2d3a83. IQ export now replaces weight with nn.Parameter(..., requires_grad=False), matching the other packed formats. The fused-expert buffer special case and its test were removed.

[IMPORTANT Performance] keep_weight_device=True moves the fused-MoE stack from CPU onto the GPU and can add several GB to the export rank's peak.
What's wrong: for IQ, _get_quantized_state now returns an on-GPU weight (which is correct for the dense paths — _get_iq_weight_state packs and immediately .detach().cpu()s, so the GPU copy is transient). But _pack_name_remapping / _pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss accumulate weight_list across all experts and then do torch.stack(...) followed by .transpose(-2, -1).contiguous(). Previously every entry was a CPU copy and both temporaries lived in host memory; now the stack and the contiguous transposed copy are two full-size CUDA allocations on top of the expert weights that are already resident as model parameters (module.weight.to(dtype) is a no-op alias when the dtype already matches, so the list itself is free — the two temporaries are the cost).
Why it matters: for a large MoE decoder layer this is ~2× the fused expert tensor in extra device memory, per layer, on the last-PP-stage rank that is also holding the model. E.g. 128 experts × 1408 × 7168 in bf16 is ≈2.6 GB fused, so ≈5 GB of new transient device memory — enough to OOM an export that previously fit. Since save_pretrained already restricts IQ to TP=1, this rank has no TP sharding to shrink it.
Suggested fix: two options, either is fine:
- Pack per expert before stacking (each
[out, in]expert packs independently to[out, in//256, bytes], thentorch.stackthe small uint8 payloads on CPU) — this composes naturally with the block-axis fix on the_get_iq_weight_statecall and removes the transposed float copy entirely. - Or scope
keep_weight_deviceto the callers that actually benefit (the dense_populate_state_dict/ split paths) and leave the packed-expert paths on CPU, since_pack_name_remappingis the one place where the on-device weight is held rather than consumed immediately.
Worth a note in the keep_weight_device docstring either way: as written it reads as a neutral device toggle, but it shifts a whole-layer allocation from host to device for MoE.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Fixed in f2d3a83. Each expert is packed immediately and moved to CPU before stacking. The export no longer builds a full fused floating-point stack and contiguous transpose on GPU.

[SUGGESTION] weight_shape is added to the tied-weight suffix list but IQ export never emits it, so this entry is dead for the format that motivated it.
_get_iq_weight_state and the HF _export_quantized_weight IQ branch both discard the second return of quantize_iq* (packed_weight, _ = ...), and the docs section added in this PR states that no shape tensor is stored. The only producer of a weight_shape key is the compressed_tensors CompressedLinear path in quantization/plugins/huggingface.py:1282. That makes the addition a harmless consistency fix for that path, but it reads as if IQ exports a shape companion.
Related, and the reason it's worth a look: dequantize_iq1_s / dequantize_iq2_xs take weight_shape as a required argument, so ModelOpt's own decoder cannot read back a checkpoint that ModelOpt just wrote without the caller re-deriving the shape by hand. Consider adding a small helper next to the packers, e.g.
def iq_logical_shape(packed_weights: torch.Tensor) -> torch.Tensor:
"""Recover the logical weight shape from a packed IQ payload."""
return torch.tensor(
(*packed_weights.shape[:-2], packed_weights.shape[-2] * GGML_BLOCK_SIZE),
dtype=torch.int64,
)so the documented recovery rule lives in one place that both the docs and dequantize_iq* callers can point at, instead of being restated prose-only in 3_unified_hf.rst. (If you'd rather just drop the "weight_shape" line here, that's fine too — but then the comment above about extending weight_suffixes should say which path produces it.)

[SUGGESTION] The IQ weights group carries three keys that aren't part of the schema this function is documented to emit, and it describes IQ as group-wise int quantization.
Per the docstring above, config_groups.group_0.* mirrors compressed-tensors' QuantizationArgs; every other branch here sticks to dynamic / num_bits / type / group_size / strategy. This branch adds effective_bits, packing, and block_payload_bytes.
Two things worth reconsidering:
"type": "int", "num_bits": 1, "group_size": 256claims a group-wise affine int scheme, but the checkpoint has noweight_scale/weight_zero_pointcompanion (all block metadata is inside the uint8 payload). A loader that dispatches onconfig_groups— rather than on the ModelOpt-specificquant_algo: "IQ1_S"— will accept this group and then try to decompressweightas group-quantized int, which cannot work. Sinceconvert_hf_quant_config_formatwrites this intoconfig.jsonasquantization_config, that's the config transformers actually sees.num_bitsandeffective_bitsdisagree by design (1 vs 1.5625). Anything that sizes buffers fromnum_bits × numelwill under-allocate.
Nothing here is load-breaking today given quant_algo is present and distinct, so this is non-blocking — but a short comment in this branch stating that IQ groups are not compressed-tensors-decodable and that packing: "ggml" is the discriminator a consumer must check would save the next reader a trip through quantize_iq2_xs. Nesting the ModelOpt-only fields (e.g. under a single "ggml": {...} sub-dict) would make that structural rather than a comment.

Fixed in f2d3a83. IQ metadata no longer presents the payload as a compressed-tensors integer weights group. Uniform exports carry ModelOpt-owned top-level format metadata, while mixed exports use an IQ group without a weights schema. Tests cover both forms.

Claude review — IQ checkpoint export
Reviewed all 7 changed files (175 additions): the 6 modelopt/torch/export/ modules in full, plus the docs/source/deployment/3_unified_hf.rst contract section. Traced the new IQ format constants and _get_iq_weight_state through every _get_quantized_state caller in unified_export_megatron.py, and read the quantize_iq* / validate_weight implementations from the stacked quantization PR to check the packing contract. No prior Claude review on this PR.
Findings: CRITICAL: 1, IMPORTANT: 2, SUGGESTION: 2
Most impactful
1. Fused-MoE experts pack IQ blocks along the wrong axis (CRITICAL). _pack_name_remapping and _pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss transpose merged_weight from Megatron [E, out, in] to HF [E, in, out] and then call _get_iq_weight_state. quantize_iq* always blocks along shape[-1], so each 256-element GGML super-block groups output channels instead of contiguous input elements. Calibration (iq2_xs_fake_quant) packs the module's own [out, in] weight along in, so the exported checkpoint does not reproduce the model that was measured — silent accuracy loss whenever out_features % 256 == 0, and a misleading divisibility error when it isn't. The dense paths in this same file pack the untransposed weight, so fused experts also disagree with every other layer in the same checkpoint. The HF exporter already sets the correct precedent with maybe_transpose_expert_weight_dimensions (transpose, quantize, transpose back) for exactly this case.
2. IQ is the only format that demotes weight from Parameter to buffer (IMPORTANT). Every other branch of _export_quantized_weight ends with nn.Parameter(quantized_weight, requires_grad=False), and that already handles uint8 payloads (INT4_AWQ does it). The delattr + register_buffer here is what forced the compensating isinstance(wrapper.weight, nn.Parameter) branch in moe_utils.py; keeping it a Parameter makes that patch unnecessary and keeps named_parameters()-based consumers (TiedWeightMap, sync_tied_input_amax) working by construction rather than by ordering luck.
3. keep_weight_device=True shifts a whole-layer MoE allocation from host to device (IMPORTANT). Transient for the dense paths, but _pack_name_remapping holds weight_list across all experts and then allocates a GPU torch.stack plus a transposed .contiguous() copy — roughly 2x the fused expert tensor in new device memory per layer, on a rank that already holds the model and (per the new TP=1 restriction) has no sharding to shrink it.
The two SUGGESTIONs cover the unused weight_shape suffix vs. dequantize_iq*'s required weight_shape argument, and the non-standard keys in the compressed-tensors-shaped config_groups entry.
Verified as correct
quant_algoplumbing round-trips end to end:get_quantization_formatproduces"iq1_s",process_layer_quant_configuppercases to"IQ1_S", and the newconvert_hf_quant_config_formatbranch matches. The Megatron writer reaches the same code viaprocess_layer_quant_config(combined_layer_config_dict), sogroup_size/packing/block_payload_bytesland there too.- All seven
_get_quantized_statecall sites have a matching IQ branch — no path leaves an unpacked (or CUDA-resident) IQ weight in_state_dict. - The early return in
_get_quantized_statecorrectly skips amax/scale collection, andFUSION_FREE_FORMATSmembership is right for a weight-only format with no cross-module scales. - Excluded modules are safe:
qformat is Nonemakesis_iqfalse, sokeep_bf16/ excluded weights never hit the packer. Thekeep_bf16handling in the GatedDeltaNetin_projpath is the only site that needs it and it has it. - The documented shape-recovery rule
[*shape[:-2], shape[-2] * 256]is self-consistent for 1-D, 2-D and 3-D logical weights.
Minor note (not counted)
The TP guard in save_pretrained derives quantization_format from self._get_quantization_format(self.model), which is per-rank. If a PP stage ever returns None while another returns an IQ format, the non-IQ ranks skip the raise and proceed to torch.distributed.barrier() while the others have already thrown — an NCCL timeout instead of the clean NotImplementedError. Every PP stage of a transformer has linear layers in practice, so this is theoretical; gating on get_tensor_model_parallel_world_size() != 1 first, or all-reducing the format, would remove the possibility.
Risk
Moderate-to-high for MoE, low for dense. Finding 1 makes fused-expert IQ checkpoints numerically wrong without any error, and MoE is the main use case for aggressive 1-2 bit formats. The dense TP=1 path looks sound. Everything is additive and gated behind the two new format constants, so no existing format or checkpoint is affected.

Bot review (claude-opus-5) — DM the bot to share feedback.
Commenting: the Megatron packed-expert paths pack IQ blocks after the [E, out, in] -> [E, in, out] transpose, so blocks form along the wrong axis, and five of the six new Megatron branches have no test.
Needs action:
- Confirm the block axis in
_pack_name_remapping/_pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss(unified_export_megatron.py:1914): packing after the transpose groups 256 weights along the output dim, unlike fake-quant and the HF path. Pack before the transpose or explain why not. - Add tests for the untested IQ branches:
_gated_mlp_slicing,_grouped_mlp_slicing,_qkv_slicing,_gated_delta_net_slicing,_pack_name_remapping— only_name_remappingis covered. - Replace the hardcoded
50/74/1.5625/2.3125/256inquant_utils.py:733andconvert_hf_config.py:121withIQ*_BLOCK_BYTES/IQ*_EFFECTIVE_BITS/GGML_BLOCK_SIZEfrommodelopt.torch.quantization.ggml. - Drop the
"weight_shape"entry added toweight_suffixesinquant_utils.py:1170—_BASE_SKIP_KEYSalready removes anyweight_shapekey, and IQ export never emits one.
No action needed:
- Merge order: this stack sits on #2446, whose llama.cpp/ggml MIT provenance is still awaiting OSRB sign-off.

Bot comment.
merged_weight has already been transposed to [E, in, out] above, so quantize_iq* blocks the last dim — the output features — into 256-element GGML blocks. Everywhere else (HF _export_quantized_weight, _name_remapping, _gated_mlp_slicing) the blocks run along the input dim, which is also what the weight_quantizer used during calibration/fake-quant. That means the exported experts are quantized on a different axis than the model was calibrated for, and out % 256 != 0 would raise from validate_weight even when in is a valid multiple. Please pack before the transpose (and re-pack/reshape into the HF layout), or document why the output-dim grouping is correct here. Same applies to _pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss, where the gate/up interleave also happens on that last dim before packing.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Fixed in f2d3a83 by packing each expert before any layout transpose. For GPT-OSS, gate/up interleaving happens on the logical output rows before packing, then the CPU payloads are stacked. Exact-byte tests cover both expert paths.

_BASE_SKIP_KEYS already contains "weight_shape", so any key containing it is dropped before the tied-weight dedup runs and can never appear in post_state_dict — the members filter if ak in post_state_dict makes this entry dead. IQ export also discards the logical-shape tensor (packed_weight, _ = quantize_iq(...)), which the new test asserts. Suggest removing this line.

Removed in f2d3a83. IQ export does not emit a separate weight_shape tensor, so the tied-weight suffix entry was dead.

Bot comment.
50 / 74 / 256 are re-derived here, again in convert_hf_config._quant_algo_to_group_config, and again in the docs. modelopt.torch.quantization.ggml already exports IQ1_S_BLOCK_BYTES, IQ2_XS_BLOCK_BYTES, IQ1_S_EFFECTIVE_BITS, IQ2_XS_EFFECTIVE_BITS and GGML_BLOCK_SIZE — importing them keeps the metadata in sync with the codec if a payload layout ever changes. Also note group_size is hardcoded to 256 here while the sibling branches use block_size_value from the recorded awq_block_size; asserting they agree would catch a misconfigured quantizer.

Fixed in f2d3a83. Export metadata now imports the per-format block-byte, block-size, and effective-bit constants from the codec package. It also verifies that the recorded block size matches the format constant, with a mismatch regression test.

Claude review — IQ checkpoint export (re-review at f2d3a83)
Scope. The PR's diff against main spans 27 files because it is stacked on #2446; the export change itself is 7 files / ~195 additions. I reviewed all six modelopt/torch/export/ modules and the docs/source/deployment/3_unified_hf.rst contract section in full, re-read the modelopt/torch/quantization/ggml/ codecs (common.py, iq2_xs.py, backend.py, __init__.py) and the extensions.py / __init__.py wiring to verify the packing and dispatch contracts, and read the new export tests. I did not open the four .cu / .cpp kernel files or the IQ1_S codec body — those are #2448 / #2446's review surface.

[*shape[:-2], shape[-2] * 256]is self-consistent for 1-D, 2-D, dense 3-D and fused-expert 4-D payloads.
Suggestions (non-blocking)
IQ_FORMATSfrozenset + one metadata table — the format pair is spelled out 16 times and the metadataif/elseis duplicated betweenquant_utils.py:740andconvert_hf_config.py:130._pack_iq_weightshould qualifyvalidate_weight's divisibility error with the layer key; today it names only a shape._get_quantized_state's own IQ branch (on-device retention + early return) has no coverage — the Megatron tests stub that method out, following this file's existing convention.
Risk
Low. Everything is additive and gated behind the two new format constants plus an explicit TP=1 NotImplementedError, so no existing format, checkpoint, or config schema changes behavior. The fused-expert [E, out, in // 256, payload] layout is a deliberate, documented deviation from HF's [E, in, out] (packed blocks cannot be transposed), and no runtime consumes IQ checkpoints yet.
Note on merge order rather than code: this stack sits on #2446, whose llama.cpp/ggml MIT provenance is pending OSRB sign-off.

of allowing the default group size to replace invalid input.

- Around line 319-323: Update the export validation around
_get_quantization_format so TP greater than one is rejected whenever any module
or effective per-layer format uses QUANTIZATION_IQ1_S or QUANTIZATION_IQ2_XS,
rather than only the first non-QUANTIZATION_NONE format. Either scan the model’s
effective per-layer formats before export or revise _get_quantization_format to
detect IQ formats anywhere while preserving existing non-IQ behavior.
In `@modelopt/torch/quantization/__init__.py`:
- Line 33: Keep the late ggml import for backend registration, then re-export

Addressed the fused-MoE deployment-consumer concern in 1b89d3e. Rather than emitting an unverified Fused-MoE IQ export can be enabled later when a deployment loader owns this layout and an integration test exercises it. The PR body also records the stack order: #2448, then #2446, then #2447. |

Bot review (claude-opus-5) — DM the bot to share feedback.
Nudge: the fused-MoE layout question is settled by an explicit rejection with tests, but licensing sign-off and one guard gap still need a human.
Needs action:
- Get OSRB/legal sign-off on the vendored ggml MIT codebook (
quantization/ggml/iq1_s.py,iq2_xs.py) and the newLICENSEentry, carried in from #2446. - Harden the TP>1 IQ check in
unified_export_megatron.py:319:_get_quantization_format(self.model)returns only the first non-NONEformat, so a mixed-format model whose IQ layers come later bypasses the guard and packs TP-sharded weights. Scan per-layer formats, or state why mixed IQ cannot occur. - Confirm merge order against #2446 / #2448, and that #2446's body carries the
ggml/vsqtensor/design rationale this PR depends on.
No action needed:

[IMPORTANT Compatibility] This early return also skips the input_scale collection and the pre_quant_scale guard below it, so an IQ weight quantizer combined with an enabled input quantizer exports silently as weight-only.
What happens. get_quantization_format returns "iq1_s"/"iq2_xs" purely from weight_quantizer.num_bits; it never looks at input_quantizer. So a config like
{"*weight_quantizer": {"num_bits": "iq2_xs", "block_sizes": {-1: 256}, "backend": "ggml"},
"*input_quantizer": {"num_bits": (4, 3), "axis": None}}calibrates fine (the ggml backend fake-quantizes the weight, the input quantizer collects its own amax), and then this branch returns before lines 1132-1138 ever run. The result:
name_to_value["input_scale"]is never populated, so no<module>.input_scalereaches_state_dicton any of the six IQ call sites.raise ValueError("Detect pre_quant_scale! SmoothQuant/AWQ are not yet supported!")at line 1138 is bypassed — an AWQ-smoothed IQ model exports pre-scaled weights with nopre_quant_scalefor the runtime to undo.QUANTIZATION_IQ1_S/IQ2_XSinFUSION_FREE_FORMATSadditionally meanspreprocess_linear_fusionnever unifiesinput_amaxacross the q/k/v and gate/up groups, which is only sound for a format with no activation scales at all.
The written config says quant_algo: IQ2_XS with no activation entry, so nothing downstream can detect the loss — the checkpoint just silently isn't the model that was calibrated. _export_quantized_weight in unified_export_hf.py:627-639 has the same shape: its IQ branch returns before the input_scale registration at line 732.
Suggested fix. Make the weight-only assumption explicit rather than implicit, e.g. in get_quantization_format's IQ branch (quant_utils.py:487), next to the existing backend check, so both export paths inherit it:
if weight_quantizer.num_bits in (QUANTIZATION_IQ1_S, QUANTIZATION_IQ2_XS):
if weight_quantizer.backend != "ggml":
raise ValueError("IQ formats require the built-in 'ggml' quantization backend")
if input_quantizer is not None and input_quantizer.is_enabled:
raise ValueError(
f"{weight_quantizer.num_bits} is weight-only; export does not emit activation "
"scales. Disable the input quantizer."
)
if getattr(input_quantizer, "_pre_quant_scale", None) is not None:
raise ValueError("pre_quant_scale (SmoothQuant/AWQ) is not supported with IQ formats")
return weight_quantizer.num_bitsA raise is cheap here and keeps the two is_iq early returns honestly weight-only.

[SUGGESTION] The fused-MoE rejection fires from inside the per-expert loop in _pack_name_remapping / _pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss, i.e. only once self.layer_state_dicts has already walked into the first MoE layer. Two consequences worth considering:
- Rank divergence. The raise depends on the rank owning at least one local fused expert. With expert parallelism where
num_experts < ep_size, a rank with an empty local expert list never enters the loop, never raises, and proceeds to theall_gather_object/torch.distributed.barrier()while its peers have thrown — an NCCL timeout instead of the cleanNotImplementedError. This is the same class as the TP guard, which you already hoisted to the top ofsave_pretrainedfor exactly this reason. - Late failure. Everything up to the first MoE layer is packed (a full CUDA→CPU IQ pack per dense layer) before the user learns the config is unsupported.
Both go away if the check is collective and up front, next to the TP=1 guard — e.g. detect "IQ format and a rule resolving to pack_name_remapping*" once in save_pretrained before self.layer_state_dicts is touched. If you'd rather keep it where it is, the per-expert _reject_... call is at least idempotent, so this is non-blocking.
Also minor: _get_iq_weight_state only ever wraps _pack_iq_weight in a one-key dict, and all six call sites immediately self._state_dict.update(...) it. self._state_dict[key] = self._pack_iq_weight(weight, qformat) reads more directly and drops one indirection.

Claude review — IQ checkpoint export (re-review at 1b89d3e)
Scope. Full-diff review, prioritized to modelopt/. The PR's diff against main spans 28 files because it is stacked on #2446/#2448; the export change itself is the 5 modelopt/torch/export/ modules plus the docs/source/deployment/3_unified_hf.rst contract section, which I read in full. I re-read modelopt/torch/quantization/ggml/ (common.py, iq1_s.py, iq2_xs.py, backend.py, __init__.py) and the extensions.py wiring to re-verify the packing contract, plus moe_utils.py::_export_fused_experts and the new unit/GPU-Megatron tests. I did not open the four .cu/.cpp kernel files or the CUDA-only tests — that is #2448's review surface.
Findings this round: CRITICAL: 0, IMPORTANT: 1, SUGGESTION: 1
Prior rounds — resolved
The CRITICAL fused-MoE block-axis finding is now moot by construction: _pack_name_remapping and _pack_name_remapping_gpt_oss both call the new _reject_unsupported_fused_iq_export right after _get_quantized_state, so no fused payload is produced at all, and both entry points are pinned by tests that also assert _state_dict == {}. The GPT-OSS interleave and merged_weight transpose are back to their main form, so the revert introduced no regression for the non-IQ formats that share those functions. The TP=1 guard also moved ahead of self.layer_state_dicts, which closes the "some ranks raise, others reach the barrier" note from the first round for the TP case — _get_quantization_format is a pure read, so hoisting it is safe.
The one IMPORTANT
IQ's is_iq early return in _get_quantized_state (unified_export_megatron.py:1121) silently drops activation scales. It returns before both the input_scale collection and the existing raise ValueError("Detect pre_quant_scale! ...") guard. get_quantization_format decides iq1_s/iq2_xs from weight_quantizer.num_bits alone and never inspects input_quantizer, so a W-IQ + A-FP8 config calibrates cleanly and then exports as weight-only with quant_algo: IQ2_XS and no activation entry — nothing downstream can detect the loss. FUSION_FREE_FORMATS membership compounds it (no input_amax unification across q/k/v), and _export_quantized_weight in unified_export_hf.py:627-639 skips its own input_scale registration the same way. Not reachable from a weight-only recipe, but it is a silent-wrong-checkpoint path with an explicit guard sitting 16 lines below the return. Suggested fix inline: raise in get_quantization_format's IQ branch, next to the existing backend != "ggml" check, so both export paths inherit it.
Verified on this commit
- Both fused-expert entry points are covered; no third path stacks expert weights (
torch.stack(weight_list, ...)appears only in those two functions). - All seven
_get_quantized_statecall sites still have an IQ branch, so no path leaves an unpacked or CUDA-resident IQ weight in_state_dict._gated_delta_net_slicingcorrectly.cpu()s itskeep_bf16(in_proj_a/in_proj_b) shards, andkeep_bf16membership is tested against prefixes in both the IQ and non-IQ branches. - Every remaining IQ split is along an output dim (
_gated_mlp_slicing,_qkv_slicing,_gated_delta_net_slicing,_grouped_mlp_slicinggate/up halves), so the last dim stays the contraction axis;quantize_iq*calls.contiguous(), so strided_takeresults are safe._pack_iq_weightreturns.detach().cpu(), so the EPtorch.save/all_gather_objectround-trip in_grouped_mlp_slicingstill sees CPU tensors. - HF fused experts are not affected by the Megatron rejection:
moe_utils._export_fused_expertssplits the 3-D params into individually named 2-D[out, in]projections before calling_export_quantized_weight, so the checkpoint never contains a 4-D packed tensor — consistent with the new3_unified_hf.rstwarning. - Config round-trip re-checked end to end on both writers:
"iq2_xs"→process_layer_quant_config→IQ2_XS+group_size/effective_bits/block_payload_bytes/packing, with the block-size mismatch raising rather than silently misparsing (awq_block_sizecomes fromget_weight_block_size→block_sizes[-1]= 256, recorded by_record_layer_quant_config).weight_quantizer.backendis a realTensorQuantizerattribute, so the new backend check does notAttributeError. - The CUDA packer accepts fp16/bf16 (
iq1_s.cpppybind docstring andTORCH_CHECKs), so passingweight.to(dtype)on-device is correct andkeep_weight_device=Trueis doing real work. - Doc shape-recovery rule
[*shape[:-2], shape[-2] * 256]is self-consistent for 1-D, 2-D and dense 3-D payloads. New test imports (uem,SimpleNamespace,patch) all resolve.
Risk
Low. Everything is additive and gated behind the two new format constants, a TP=1 NotImplementedError, and now a fused-MoE NotImplementedError; no existing format, checkpoint, or config schema changes behavior, and no runtime consumes IQ checkpoints yet. The IMPORTANT above is a defensive gap on a mixed W-IQ/A-quantized config rather than a defect on the paths this PR's recipes will exercise.
Not code, carried forward: the ggml/llama.cpp MIT codebook provenance and LICENSE entry still need OSRB sign-off, and merge order is #2448 → #2446 → this.

Bot review (claude-opus-5) — DM the bot to share feedback.
Commenting: the TP>1 IQ guard I flagged last round is unchanged, and the new IQ branch in get_quantization_format still lets a quantized activation path export silently as weight-only.
Needs action:
- Harden the TP>1 check at
unified_export_megatron.py:319:_get_quantization_format(self.model)returns only the first non-NONEformat, so a mixed-format model whose IQ layers come later bypasses it and packs TP-sharded weights. Scan per-layer formats, or state why mixed IQ cannot occur. - Reject an enabled
input_quantizer/_pre_quant_scalein the IQ branch of_get_quantization_from_layer(quant_utils.py:487); both export paths return beforeinput_scalecollection and the existingpre_quant_scaleguard. See inline. - Forward the caller's
group_sizeinto_quant_algo_to_group_configatconvert_hf_config.py:242so an invalid value raises instead of being rewritten to 256. - Reword the
IQ1_S/IQ2_XSbullets in3_unified_hf.rst:53— "importance-aware" implies imatrix support these encoders do not have.
No action needed:
- ✔️ Resolved since the last review: fused-MoE rejection with tests on both entry points, and the merge order now recorded in the PR body.
- The ggml codebook /

Bot comment.
Still open from the previous round. _get_quantization_format walks the module tree and returns the first non-QUANTIZATION_NONE format, so on a mixed-format model whose IQ layers come after e.g. an FP8 layer this condition is false and the export proceeds to pack TP-sharded weights — either a confusing divisibility error or a silently sharded IQ payload.
Either scan the effective per-layer formats here (the same walk get_quant_config does), or gate on get_tensor_model_parallel_world_size() != 1 first and then check whether any module resolves to an IQ format. If mixed IQ is structurally impossible with the shipped recipes, a one-line comment saying so would close this out.

Bot comment.
This branch validates the backend but not the activation side, and both exporters return early for IQ before they collect input_scale: _get_quantized_state (unified_export_megatron.py:1121) returns above the input_scale block and above the existing raise ValueError("Detect pre_quant_scale! ..."), and _export_quantized_weight (unified_export_hf.py:627) returns before its own input_scale registration.
So a W-IQ + A-FP8 (or AWQ-smoothed) config calibrates cleanly and then exports as weight-only with quant_algo: IQ2_XS and no activation entry — nothing downstream can detect the loss. Since IQ is weight-only by construction, make that explicit right here, next to the backend check:
if input_quantizer is not None and input_quantizer.is_enabled:
raise ValueError(f"{weight_quantizer.num_bits} is weight-only; disable the input quantizer")
if getattr(input_quantizer, "_pre_quant_scale", None) is not None:
raise ValueError("pre_quant_scale (SmoothQuant/AWQ) is not supported with IQ formats")Both export paths then inherit the guard, and the two is_iq early returns become honestly weight-only.

Bot comment.
_quant_algo_to_group_config already validates group_size against the format's block size and raises on a mismatch, but this call site drops the caller's value, so an input config carrying IQ2_XS with group_size: 128 is silently rewritten to 256 instead of raising. Pass it through:
iq_metadata = _quant_algo_to_group_config(
quant_algo_value, original_quantization_details.get("group_size")
)The MIXED_PRECISION branch below already forwards layer_group_size, so this also keeps the two paths consistent. Worth a test alongside test_iq_quantization_config_rejects_mismatched_block_size, which covers the process_layer_quant_config side only.

[IMPORTANT ModeState] This rejection is derived from local module inspection, so it can fire on some ranks and not others — turning a clean error into a collective hang.
_get_quantization_format(self.model) returns the first non-None format found in the rank-local model. That is not guaranteed to be rank-uniform:
- PP > 1 where one stage holds no quantized linear (layer-range recipes / "keep the first dense block in BF16") → that stage gets
None/QUANTIZATION_NONEand skips the guard. - A genuinely mixed model (e.g. FP8 attention + IQ experts) where the first hit on one stage is
fp8and on another isiq1_s.
In those cases the IQ ranks raise NotImplementedError and exit save_pretrained, while the non-IQ ranks continue into self._gather_exclude_modules() (all_gather_object, line 393) and torch.distributed.barrier() (line 442) and block until the NCCL timeout. Worse, the rank that skipped the guard silently writes TP-sharded IQ payloads for its own IQ modules.
This file already documents the convention for exactly this hazard (lines 462-467: "this is public API, and a lone raise would leave peers hanging in the next collective instead of surfacing the error") and provides the helpers for it (_gather_exclude_modules, _gather_layer_config_dict, _gather_kv_cache_dtype).
Suggested fix — make the decision global before raising, e.g.:
local_is_iq = torch.tensor(
[quantization_format in (QUANTIZATION_IQ1_S, QUANTIZATION_IQ2_XS)],
dtype=torch.uint8,
device=torch.cuda.current_device(),
)
if torch.distributed.is_initialized():
torch.distributed.all_reduce(local_is_iq, op=torch.distributed.ReduceOp.MAX)
if local_is_iq.item() and get_tensor_model_parallel_world_size() != 1:
raise NotImplementedError(
"Megatron IQ1_S/IQ2_XS unified export currently requires tensor model parallel size 1"
)The same reasoning applies to _reject_unsupported_fused_iq_export: it raises from inside _get_state_dict() only on ranks that own a fused-expert module, so a PP stage with no MoE layer keeps going into the next collective. Either share that flag too, or hoist the fused-MoE check next to this TP check so both rejections happen once, uniformly, before any collective.

[SUGGESTION] Two things about this block, both about keeping one source of truth for the IQ block contract.
-
Duplicated metadata table. This exact derivation (block size / payload bytes / effective bits, plus the
packing: "ggml"marker) is repeated verbatim inquant_utils.process_layer_quant_config(lines 740-759), and the two copies already validate differently: heregroup_size in (None, block_size)is accepted, thereblock_size_value != block_sizeraises (so a missingawq_block_size→0is a hard error). Adding a third IQ format, or changingIQ2_XS_BLOCK_BYTES, means touching both. A single helper next to the format constants (e.g.iq_block_metadata(quant_algo) -> dictinquant_format.py) would remove the drift risk, per CONTRIBUTING's "don't repeat yourself; keep a single source of truth". The same applies to the membership testin (QUANTIZATION_IQ1_S, QUANTIZATION_IQ2_XS), which is now spelled out ~10 times acrossquant_utils.py,unified_export_hf.py, andunified_export_megatron.py— a module-levelIQ_FORMATS = frozenset({...})alongsideFUSION_FREE_FORMATSwould make a future IQ3 a one-line change. -
Two different config shapes for the same information. For a uniform IQ export these keys land at the root of
quantization_config(line 242-244), which is whatdocs/source/deployment/3_unified_hf.rstdocuments. ForMIXED_PRECISIONthe same dict goes through line 286-288 and ends up insideconfig_groups["group_N"](withtargetsappended) — the shape asserted bytest_mixed_iq_config_group_does_not_claim_integer_weight_schema. A loader written against the new docs will look for root-levelpacking/block_payload_bytesand find nothing for a mixed export. Given this PR deliberately rejects layouts that no deployment loader owns yet (fused-MoE), consider either documenting the mixed-precision placement in the same doc section, or rejecting IQ insideMIXED_PRECISIONuntil a loader exists.

[SUGGESTION] _get_iq_weight_state is a one-key-dict wrapper around _pack_iq_weight, and every one of its six call sites immediately unwraps it with self._state_dict.update(...) / local_expert_state.update(...). The dict round-trip hides what is really a single assignment:
self._state_dict.update(self._get_iq_weight_state(prefix + "weight", weight, qformat))
# vs.
self._state_dict[prefix + "weight"] = self._pack_iq_weight(weight, qformat)Dropping _get_iq_weight_state and calling _pack_iq_weight directly removes a level of indirection and makes the assignment target obvious at each site (CONTRIBUTING: "hide lower-level details behind well-named helpers" — but this layer adds a name, not information). Both docstrings also claim the same thing ("Pack one [out, in] weight"), which is a hint that only one helper is needed.

Claude review — IQ export (HF + Megatron)
Scope: full review (trigger comment had no extra scoping). 9 changed files (+567/−11); reviewed all 5 modelopt/torch/export/ files hunk-by-hunk plus surrounding context, the deployment doc, and the three test files. Also cross-read the dependency PRs' public surface (#2446 modelopt/torch/quantization/ggml) to verify the packing API contract, and traced every caller of the touched helpers (_get_quantized_state — all 7 call sites, _export_quantized_weight — including the streaming, layerwise, and fused-MoE handler paths, FUSION_FREE_FORMATS, process_layer_quant_config).
Findings
CRITICAL: 0 · IMPORTANT: 1 · SUGGESTION: 3
| # | Severity | Location | Issue |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | IMPORTANT ModeState | unified_export_megatron.py:319-327 (and _reject_unsupported_fused_iq_export) |
IQ rejections are derived from rank-local module inspection, so they can raise on some ranks only → peers hang in the next collective instead of getting a clean error |
| 2 | SUGGESTION | convert_hf_config.py:130-149 |
IQ block-metadata table duplicated in quant_utils.process_layer_quant_config with divergent validation; IQ format membership spelled out ~10× across 3 files; mixed-precision IQ emits a config shape the new doc does not describe |
| 3 | SUGGESTION | unified_export_megatron.py:1158-1170 |
_get_iq_weight_state is a one-key-dict wrapper that all 6 call sites immediately unwrap |
Most impactful
Finding 1 is the only blocking one. Everything else in the export dataflow checks out:
- Coverage of the packing path is complete. All seven
_get_quantized_stateconsumers in the Megatron exporter now branch on IQ (dense_name_remapping, gated MLP, grouped MLP expert shards, QKV, gated-delta-net, and both fused-expert entry points, which reject). No path silently writes an unpacked BF16 weight under anIQ*quant_algo. - HF paths agree. In-memory, streaming/offload (
hf_export_handlers→_export_quantized_weight), layerwise (layerwise_export.export_layer→ same handler) and fused-MoE (moe_utilssplits the 3-D params into per-expert 2-D wrappers before packing) all produce the documented[*logical[:-1], logical[-1] // 256, payload_bytes]uint8payload — i.e. the HF side never emits the 4-D fused layout that the Megatron side rejects, so the stated deployment boundary holds on both. - Shape contract is recoverable. Discarding the returned
weight_shapemetadata (packed_weight, _ = quantize_iq(...)) is safe becausevalidate_weightforbids a non-multiple-of-256 last dim, sopacked.shape[-2] * 256reconstructs it exactly — matching the doc and the tests. FUSION_FREE_FORMATS,keep_weight_device, and metadata plumbing are consistent. IQ is scale-free, so skipping resmooth/amax fusion is right; keeping the weight on-device until packing is what lets the CUDA packer run;awq_block_sizeis recorded unconditionally, soprocess_layer_quant_config's strict== 256check will not spuriously fire for the recipes in #2449 (block_sizes: {-1: 256}).- The IQ2_XS block description added to
3_unified_hf.rst(2-byte FP16d, 32 ×uint16with 9-bit grid index + 7 stored sign bits and parity-derived 8th, 8 bytes of 4-bit local scales, 512×8 codebook, 2.3125 bpw) matches the GGMLblock_iq2_xslayout.
Risk
Low-to-moderate. The change is additive and gated: every unsupported layout raises rather than silently mis-exporting, and the round-trip tests compare against weight_quantizer(weight) rather than just asserting shapes. The residual risk is the distributed one in finding 1, which only surfaces on multi-rank Megatron exports where the IQ format is not rank-uniform, and manifests as a hang rather than a wrong checkpoint.
One process note, not a code finding: modelopt/torch/quantization/ggml does not exist on this branch (it lands in #2446), so import modelopt.torch.export fails here and this PR's own tests cannot pass until the stated merge order (#2448 → #2446 → #2447) is respected. Worth re-running the 89 focused tests on a branch with #2446 applied before merge.

## Summary - add native CUDA packing kernels for IQ1_S and IQ2_XS - load both extensions through the quantization extension module - validate caller metadata and launch bounds before contiguous materialization - normalize non-finite input elements consistently with the Python reference path - accept caller-computed IQ2_XS FP16 superblock scales to avoid a duplicate reduction - share common packing helpers and add direct extension compilation and boundary tests ## PR split This work is split into four focused PRs. Each PR targets `main` and owns a disjoint file set: 1. **Kernel** — [#2448: Add CUDA kernels for IQ packing](#2448) 2. **Quantization** — [#2446: Add IQ quantization codecs and backend](#2446) 3. **Export** — [#2447: Export IQ checkpoints from HF and Megatron](#2447) 4. **Recipes** — [#2449: Add IQ post-training quantization recipes](#2449) The required merge order is #2448, #2446, #2447, then #2449. ## Scope This PR owns only native kernel sources, shared packing helpers, extension loading and build registration, and direct extension tests. It does not contain Python codecs, export code, or recipes. ## GPU test coverage Direct kernel-boundary coverage is included in this PR: - [extension compilation, zero payloads, input validation, and row-alignment checks](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/74e94db9601870e3569c7c8e73506a2f08c29da8/tests/gpu/_extensions/test_torch_extensions.py) Pack/dequantize numerical, native/reference byte-parity, and non-finite-policy tests are owned by the quantization PR: [IQ1_S](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/e8d937081d8cd01cf8e44d43915df443b79deb17/tests/gpu/torch/quantization/test_iq1_s_cuda.py) and [IQ2_XS](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/e8d937081d8cd01cf8e44d43915df443b79deb17/tests/gpu/torch/quantization/test_iq2_xs_cuda.py). ## Dependency behavior On `main`, this PR provides optional CUDA extension loaders and direct extension tests. The Python encoders and fallback dispatch land in #2446. Until #2446 lands, no quantization path calls these getters, so a load failure reports only that the extension is unavailable. The IQ2_XS packer accepts one caller-computed FP16 scale per 256-value block. #2446 owns that predictor and passes the same values to the native and reference encoders. ## Provenance - The CUDA kernels were independently written. - They implement the packed-format contract and sign-parity convention from the pinned [llama.cpp definition](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/blob/9b05354ec6fb58b4e665e9a39ebc40285c015638/ggml/src/ggml-common.h). - `16.875 = 15 × (1 + 1/8)` is a derived IQ1_S constant. - `0.125` is part of the encoded format. - `0.61` is our empirical IQ1_S scale predictor, not copied from upstream code. - The IQ2_XS predictor constants are owned by #2446 and are not duplicated in this kernel. Human review is still required to confirm that the attribution and license treatment are sufficient. ## Validation - repository hooks, including native formatting, pass for all changed files - extension loader and test modules compile as Python - all 20 direct-extension and CUDA integration test cases collect locally - CUDA runtime execution is delegated to GPU CI because the local host is macOS - restricted-term scan passes --------- Signed-off-by: Hung-Yueh Chiang <hungyuehc@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Chenjie Luo <chenjiel@nvidia.com> Co-authored-by: Chenjie Luo <chenjiel@nvidia.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Add the provider for modelopt.torch.quantization.ggml. The checkout contains no such package, and pyproject.toml declares no runtime dependency that provides it. modelopt.torch.export.__init__ imports convert_hf_config, which imports this module at module scope. Therefore, importing modelopt.torch.export fails before the HF and Megatron entrypoints load. Those entrypoints also import the IQ functions at module scope, so the failure occurs before IQ export is invoked.
Add the provider for the exact modelopt.torch.quantization.ggml module to the base runtime dependencies, or include that package in this distribution. This shared correction covers quant_utils.py, convert_hf_config.py, unified_export_hf.py, and unified_export_megatron.py.

### What does this PR do? Type of change: Code refactoring `#2448` added the GGML IQ packing kernels as **two** torch extensions, `modelopt_cuda_ext_iq1_s` and `modelopt_cuda_ext_iq2_xs`. This merges them into one, `modelopt_cuda_ext_ggml`. The existing per-extension split in `extensions.py` exists for reasons that don't apply to the IQ formats: `get_cuda_ext` gates on CUDA `>=11` while `_fp8`/`_mx` gate on `>=11.8`, and `_mx` needs `--use_fast_math`, which must not reach the base `tensor_quant` kernels. `get_cuda_ext_iq1_s` and `get_cuda_ext_iq2_xs` differed in none of that — same `>=11.8` gate, same `-O3` flags, same `common.cuh` — so the split only compiled the shared header twice, ran nvcc twice, and grew the loader, `__getattr__`, and `precompile()` once per format. With IQ2_XXS / IQ3_S / IQ4_NL plausibly following, that scales badly. Changes: - New `ggml/ggml.cpp` holds both host-side validation wrappers and the single `PYBIND11_MODULE`, binding `iq1_s_pack` and `iq2_xs_pack` (previously each module exported a bare `pack`). Deletes `ggml/iq1_s.cpp` and `ggml/iq2_xs.cpp`; the validation logic and docstrings carry over unchanged. - `get_cuda_ext_iq1_s` + `get_cuda_ext_iq2_xs` → `get_cuda_ext_ggml`, which builds `ggml.cpp`, `iq1_s.cu`, and `iq2_xs.cu` together. The retry-on-`raise_if_failed` semantics of the old getters are preserved. - Each format keeps its kernels in its own translation unit, so adding a format is a new `.cu` plus one `module.def` — no new extension, loader, or `precompile()` line. No caller outside `extensions.py` and its tests referenced the old getters on `main`, so nothing else changes. **Note for the follow-up PRs in the `#2448` series (`#2446`/`#2447`/`#2449`): the codec layer should call `get_cuda_ext_ggml().iq1_s_pack(...)` / `.iq2_xs_pack(...)` instead of `get_cuda_ext_iq1_s().pack(...)` / `get_cuda_ext_iq2_xs().pack(...)`.** ### Usage ```python from modelopt.torch.quantization.extensions import get_cuda_ext_ggml ext = get_cuda_ext_ggml(raise_if_failed=True) iq1_s_payload = ext.iq1_s_pack(weight, iq1s_grid) # uint8 [numel / 256, 50] iq2_xs_payload = ext.iq2_xs_pack(weight, iq2xs_grid, scales) # uint8 [numel / 256, 74] ``` ### Testing Ran on a single H200 NVL (TRT-LLM `1.3.0rc27.dev202609170000` container), building the merged extension from scratch: - `pytest tests/gpu/_extensions/test_torch_extensions.py` — **24 passed** (6:44). This is the full existing IQ suite (zero-block layout, encode, dtype rejection, row-straddling rejection, invalid/negative-zero scales, byte-exact dtype equivalence, and the brute-force optimality round-trip) reparametrized onto the merged module, plus the untouched `modelopt_cuda_ext` / `_fp8` / `_mx` load tests. - Verified `precompile()` loads all four extensions and that the merged module exports exactly `iq1_s_pack` and `iq2_xs_pack` with the expected arities. - Off-GPU: compiled the three sources directly and linked them into one `.so` to confirm no duplicate-symbol collisions between the two `.cu` translation units. - `pre-commit run --files ...` passes on all changed files (ruff, mypy, clang-format, bandit, license headers). ### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*" - Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ — the removed getters were added in `#2448` (merged today, unreleased) and have no callers outside this file's own tests. - If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A — no new code or dependencies; the moved wrappers keep their original attribution. - Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ — existing coverage reparametrized onto the merged module; no behavior change to test. - Did you update [Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?: N/A — internal refactor of an unreleased, not-yet-wired-up API. - Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌ — not yet run. ### Additional Information Follow-up to #2448. Merge before the remaining PRs in that series (#2446, #2447, #2449) land, so the codec layer is written against `get_cuda_ext_ggml` and no rename is needed afterwards. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **New Features** - Added IQ1_S packing support through the GGML CUDA extension. - Added a unified GGML extension loader for IQ1_S and IQ2_XS packing. - Improved extension loading reliability when a cached extension is unavailable. - **Changes** - Renamed the IQ2_XS packing binding from `pack` to `iq2_xs_pack`. - Consolidated IQ1_S and IQ2_XS extension access under the shared GGML loader. - Updated GPU validation and coverage to use the unified extension interface. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> Signed-off-by: Chenjie Luo <chenjiel@nvidia.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
