Dev Engineer Review

  • Added Spark functional and performance coverage for Qwen3.6-35B-A3B NVFP4 and Gemma 4 26B-A4B NVFP4.
  • Added Qwen3.6 model paths, MTP performance configuration, remote-code trust, speculative-decoding support, and advanced quickstart coverage.
  • Added the Gemma 4 test_nvfp4_no_mtp accuracy case.
  • Limited Gemma 4 accuracy coverage to B200 and GB10 devices.
  • Removed 30 existing entries from llm_spark_core.txt. Confirm that this scope reduction is intentional.
  • Configuration and test-list changes use consistent model identifiers and expected formats.
  • No production-code changes are included.

QA Engineer Review

  • Added test_nvfp4_no_mtp in TestGemma4_26B_A4B.
  • Added entries to tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_func.yml for Qwen3.6 end-to-end testing and Gemma 4 multimodal accuracy testing.
  • Added entries to tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_perf.yml for Gemma 4 performance testing and Qwen3.6 baseline and MTP performance testing.
  • Removed 30 entries from tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_core.txt.
  • The added test function has corresponding QA list coverage.
  • Verdict: sufficient.

Walkthrough

The change adds Gemma 4 NVFP4 no-MTP accuracy coverage and device-specific execution handling. It also adds Qwen3.6 NVFP4 model aliases, runtime settings, Blackwell quickstart coverage, performance handling, and Spark QA registrations.

Changes

Gemma NVFP4 accuracy coverage

Layer / File(s) Summary
Accuracy execution and registration
tests/integration/defs/accuracy/test_llm_api_pytorch_multimodal.py, tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_func.yml, tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_perf.yml
The Gemma test adds no-MTP NVFP4 MMMU evaluation and limits shared-KV MTP coverage to B200 and GB10. Spark lists add Gemma functional and performance cases.

Qwen3.6 NVFP4 integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Model aliases and MTP benchmark configuration
tests/integration/defs/perf/_model_paths.py, tests/integration/defs/perf/pytorch_model_config.py
The NVFP4 checkpoint receives an MTP alias. The MTP configuration enables CUTLASS MoE, chunked prefill, padded CUDA graphs, FP8 KV cache without block reuse, and one-token drafting.
Quickstart integration
tests/integration/defs/test_e2e.py, tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_func.yml
The model is added to Blackwell quickstart coverage. The quickstart limits the batch size to one for the Mamba recurrent-state cache. The Nemotron-Nano NVFP4 quickstart enables remote code and disables KV cache manager v2.
Performance registration
tests/integration/defs/perf/test_perf.py, tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_perf.yml
The MTP alias uses remote-code trust and speculative-decoding handling. Spark performance coverage adds baseline and MTP cases.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 99760

This change expands Spark coverage for Gemma and Qwen3.6, but the new Gemma test still needs its required return annotation to satisfy repository test conventions.

Review summary - CONCERNS

Verdict: Not ready to merge as-is. Mechanically the branch is already conflicted (mergeable: false, mergeable_state: dirty), so it needs a rebase regardless. Substantively, the additive part of this PR looks reasonable, but it also deletes tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_core.txt in full (32 entries) with no visible replacement or reference update — that needs to be justified or split out before this lands.

Issues

  • [MAJOR] tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_core.txt:0 - whole 32-entry Spark core list deleted; possible dangling CI reference and unverified coverage loss
  • [MINOR] tests/integration/defs/accuracy/test_llm_api_pytorch_multimodal.py:230 - GB10 added to the allow-list without tuning memory-sensitive args (and the PR description describes the opposite effect)
  • [MINOR] tests/integration/defs/accuracy/test_llm_api_pytorch_multimodal.py:273 - test_nvfp4_no_mtp duplicates test_nvfp4's setup; parametrise instead, and add -> None
  • [MINOR] tests/integration/defs/perf/pytorch_model_config.py:331 - fp8 KV cache on the MTP entry only confounds the baseline-vs-MTP comparison
  • [MINOR] tests/integration/defs/perf/pytorch_model_config.py:319 - confirm the pre-existing baseline pattern does not also match the _mtp label
  • [MINOR] tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_perf.yml:51 - new gemma_4_26b_a4b_nvfp4 entry has no backing model-key addition in this diff
  • [NIT] tests/integration/defs/test_e2e.py:991 - the Qwen3.6 name also hits the generic "Qwen3" branch, so both --kv_cache_fraction=0.6 and --max_batch_size=1 are applied

QA view

  • Test coverage: partial - the PR is test-only, so the new func/perf/accuracy entries are the coverage. Still uncovered: MTP correctness on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B (only throughput is exercised, no accuracy case), and the fate of the 32 entries removed with llm_spark_core.txt (Llama3.1-8B FP8/FP4/bf16, GPT-OSS-20B/120B, Qwen3-8B/14B/32B, Qwen3-30B-A3B, Llama3.3-70B FP8/FP4, the six examples/serve nemotron3 cases) — I only see lines 31-46 of llm_spark_func.yml and cannot confirm they still run.
  • SM coverage: the change is NVFP4-only and arch-gated. Code touches sm100 (B200), newly sm121 (GB10/Spark), and Blackwell+ generally via skip_pre_blackwell. Markers are directionally right, but TestGemma4_26B_A4B is newly admitted to GB10 while keeping the B200-tuned max_batch_size=16, and nothing in the diff evidences a GB10 run — that is a new-arch-on-old-arch-settings gap.
  • Test code: missing return annotation on test_nvfp4_no_mtp; whole-block copy-paste instead of parametrisation (config drift risk); test_nvfp4_no_mtp listed before test_nvfp4 in the yml; a new perf list entry (gemma_4_26b_a4b_nvfp4) with no corresponding key addition; and a coverage-reducing file deletion bundled into an additive PR.
  • Test time: significant - three new perf cases including two 35B MoE runs at 2048/256, two full MMMU evaluations of a 26B multimodal model, and one new 35B quickstart e2e case. The 32 removed entries offset this by an amount I cannot determine from the diff, so the net is unknown; the added-side cost is clearly significant.
  • Needs /qa-verify: yes - a QA test-list file was deleted, a B200-only class is newly enabled on GB10, the MTP perf case depends on an unverified yaml pattern match plus a duplicated checkpoint path, and one new perf entry's model key is unconfirmed.

Possible new issues

  • A CI stage that still names llm_spark_core.txt fails at start-up with a missing-file error instead of running tests.
  • Spark silently loses the removed coverage if those entries are not present elsewhere in llm_spark_func.yml.
  • TestGemma4_26B_A4B OOMs on GB10 (single 128 GB unified memory) where max_batch_size=16 + chunked prefill + MMMU image inputs fit on a 180 GB B200.
  • The MTP-vs-baseline perf delta reads as an MTP win when part of it comes from kv_cache_config.dtype: fp8 being set only on the MTP entry.
  • If the pre-existing baseline yaml pattern is a bare qwen3.6_35b_a3b_fp4 prefix, the _mtp label matches two entries and could run without speculative_config while being reported as the MTP case.

What I could not verify

  • Whether anything (Jenkins/CI stage definitions, --test-list arguments) still references llm_spark_core.txt — no such file appears in the diff.
  • The full contents of llm_spark_func.yml; only lines 31-46 are visible, so entry-by-entry migration of the removed list is unchecked.
  • The body of TestGemma4_26B_A4B::test_nvfp4, so I cannot confirm it enables MTP and that test_nvfp4_no_mtp is genuinely a different configuration.
  • The pre-existing qwen3.6_35b_a3b_fp4 entry in pytorch_model_config.py (its pattern string and its KV-cache settings), which both the double-match and the confounded-comparison concerns depend on.
  • Whether gemma_4_26b_a4b_nvfp4 already exists as a key in _model_paths.py and in the test_perf.py model list.
  • Runtime behaviour on GB10 generally — no CI result or perf number is visible to me, only the list entries that would produce them.

Findings not attached to a line

  • [MAJOR] tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_core.txt:? - Whole 32-entry Spark core test list deleted with no visible replacement or reference update
    • This PR is titled "Add func and perf cases" but it also deletes tests/integration/test_lists/qa/llm_spark_core.txt in its entirety (32 entries). Two concrete failure modes:
  1. Dangling reference. Test-list files in tests/integration/test_lists/qa/ are normally named by a job/stage definition (Jenkins/CI yml, or a --test-list argument). The diff contains no change to any file that could still name llm_spark_core.txt, so any job that selects this list will now fail at start-up with a missing-file error rather than running zero tests. I cannot verify from the diff whether such a reference exists — please confirm the consumer was removed or repointed in a separate change.

  2. Silent coverage loss. Only lines 31-46 of llm_spark_func.yml are visible, and several removed entries have no counterpart in that window: test_ptp_quickstart_advanced[Llama3.1-8B-FP8/...-FP4/...-bf16], [GPT-OSS-20B], [GPT-OSS-120B], [Qwen3-8b-fp8/nvfp4], [Qwen3-8B-bf16], [Qwen3-14b-fp8/nvfp4], [Qwen3-14B-bf16], [Qwen3-32B-bf16], [Qwen3-32b-nvfp4], [Qwen3-30B-A3B], [Qwen3-30B-A3B_nvfp4_hf], [Llama3.3-70B-FP8/FP4], and the six examples/serve/test_serve.py::test_nemotron3_nano_omni_nvfp4[...] cases plus test_nemotron3_super_120b_nvfp4. If those are not present elsewhere in llm_spark_func.yml, Spark loses that coverage without anyone noticing.

Suggested fix: either restore the file, or split the deletion into its own commit/PR that (a) shows the migrated entries and (b) updates whatever references the list, so the reduced scope is auditable. The auto-generated description itself says "Review the removals to confirm that the reduced scope is intentional" — that confirmation should be in the PR, not left to the reviewer.

Review summary - Approve (non-blocking)

Approving so this is not blocked on me. The points raised in my review comment above are non-blocking — please read them and address what you agree with before merging.

Worth doing before this is relied on: Multiple reasons, each sufficient on its own: (1) a QA test-list file was deleted wholesale and the migration of its 32 entries cannot be confirmed from the diff; (2) a previously B200-only accuracy class is newly enabled on GB10 with unchanged memory settings, so a human should confirm it actually passes (and does not OOM) on Spark; (3) the Qwen3.6 MTP perf case depends on a yaml pattern match and on the _mtp key resolving to the same checkpoint directory — a human should confirm the generated config really contains speculative_config and that the reported MTP speedup is not an artefact of the fp8 KV setting; (4) the new gemma_4_26b_a4b_nvfp4 perf entry needs its model key confirmed before the stage is trusted.

This PR deletes llm_spark_core.txt entirely, removing 30 existing Spark test entries while the stated scope is adding Qwen3.6/Gemma4 cases. I do not see those 30 cases migrated one-for-one in this diff, so this can silently reduce existing QA coverage. Could the core list be preserved, or the migration/removal be made explicit and complete in the same change?
