Summary of the series

Model-specific PTQ modeling moves out of modelopt/torch/quantization/plugins/huggingface.py into the per-model packages under modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py, next to each model's specs.py. By the end of the series huggingface.py shrinks from ~1880 to ~1500 lines and keeps only the code shared across models: sequential/fused MoE auto-detection, attention, FP8Linear, CompressedLinear, parallel linears, and the transposed-quantization helpers that gpt_oss and llama4 share. Model types that gain PTQ modeling but had no ModelSpec get one.

  • Class and function bodies move verbatim. The only rewrites: on-the-fly callbacks are added to CUSTOM_MODEL_PLUGINS by their own module, and is_homogeneous_hf_model imports is_nemotron_h_model lazily.
  • huggingface.py imports every modeling_ptq from an explicit list. The list sits after the generic wrappers these modules build on and before the homogeneous decoder discoverer is registered, so Nemotron-H's more specific discoverer still matches first.
  • Each package's __init__.py keeps importing only specs, so import modelopt.torch.models does not pull in quantization or transformers.
  • No public API or quantization behavior changes; only private (_-prefixed) names change module.

Merge in order. #2576 and #2577 have merged; #2578 now targets main, and #2580 targets #2578's branch.

  1. [OMNIML-3817] Move model-specific PTQ modeling into modelopt/torch/models [1/4] #2576 — Add model specs for llama4, qwen3_vl_moe, falcon, step3p5 and step3p7 (merged)
  2. [OMNIML-3817] Move model-specific PTQ modeling into modelopt/torch/models [2/4] #2577 — Add the modeling_ptq.py convention; move Nemotron-H, Falcon and Llama4 (merged)
  3. [OMNIML-3817] Move model-specific PTQ modeling into modelopt/torch/models [3/4] #2578 — Move GPT-OSS ← this PR
  4. [OMNIML-3817] Move model-specific PTQ modeling into modelopt/torch/models [4/4] #2580 — Move the Step family (step3p5, shared by step3p7)

The DBRX slice (#2579) was dropped: #2649 removed DBRX support, so there was nothing left to move. Likewise, the Qwen3-VL-MoE half of [3/4] was dropped: #2670 removed its pre-5.12 wrapper.

This PR [3/4]

Moves _QuantGptOssExperts and its registration into gpt_oss/modeling_ptq.py, adds gpt_oss to the import loop, and extends the registration test to it. This slice originally also moved the pre-5.12 Qwen3-VL-MoE wrapper; #2670 removed that wrapper, so that half was dropped.

Usage

No API change. To add PTQ support for a new model, put its wrapper in modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py and add <model_type> to the import loop at the end of quantization/plugins/huggingface.py.

Testing

Each branch of the stack checked out and tested on main at 90ba9fb, CPU, torch 2.11. With transformers 5.18: pytest tests/unit/torch/models tests/unit/torch/quantization tests/unit/torch/export tests/unit/recipe, 2371 passed, 1 skipped. With transformers 5.5 (the new floor): tests/unit/torch/models plus test_moe_linear.py and test_huggingface.py, 206 passed, 1 skipped. GPU tests are left to CI.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change adds model-specific PTQ wrappers for GPT-OSS experts and the legacy Qwen3-VL MoE expert layout. It moves their registrations out of the Hugging Face quantization plugin and updates the Qwen3-VL test import.

Changes

MoE PTQ wrappers

Layer / File(s) Summary
Legacy Qwen3-VL expert conversion
modelopt/torch/models/qwen3_vl_moe/modeling_ptq.py, modelopt/torch/quantization/plugins/huggingface.py, modelopt/torch/models/qwen3_vl_moe/specs.py, tests/unit/torch/quantization/plugins/test_fused_experts.py
Adds a wrapper that converts packed expert weights into per-expert linear modules and computes routed expert outputs. Moves legacy registration and the test import to the model-specific module. Updates the specification comment to point to that module.
GPT-OSS expert quantization
modelopt/torch/models/gpt_oss/modeling_ptq.py, modelopt/torch/quantization/plugins/huggingface.py
Adds a wrapper that quantizes inputs and projection weights, intercepts matrix operations for down-projection inputs, and clears cached quantized weights after the quantization context. Removes the prior plugin implementation and registration, and adds both model-specific PTQ modules to the plugin import list.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f2905

This refactor moves the GPT-OSS and Qwen3-VL MoE quantization wrappers into their model packages and keeps their registrations active. The one open item is a minor test-import style issue. The change is mergeable with that small follow-up.

Move the _QuantQwen3VLMoeTextExperts import to module scope.

The local import has no justification. The model-specific module catches ImportError around its optional transformers.models.qwen3_vl_moe import, so this top-level import does not add a new Transformers dependency. The plugin loop itself is not guarded; the model-specific module provides the guard.

### What does this PR do?

Type of change: Refactor

### Summary of the series

Model-specific PTQ modeling moves out of
`modelopt/torch/quantization/plugins/huggingface.py` into the per-model
packages under `modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py`,
next to each model's `specs.py`. By the end of the series
`huggingface.py` shrinks from ~2025 to ~1525 lines and keeps only the
code shared across models: sequential/fused MoE auto-detection,
attention, `FP8Linear`, `CompressedLinear`, parallel linears, and the
transposed-quantization helpers that gpt_oss and llama4 share. Model
types that gain PTQ modeling but had no `ModelSpec` get one.

- Class and function bodies move verbatim. The only rewrites: on-the-fly
callbacks are added to `CUSTOM_MODEL_PLUGINS` by their own module, and
`is_homogeneous_hf_model` imports `is_nemotron_h_model` lazily.
- `huggingface.py` imports every `modeling_ptq` from an explicit list.
The list sits after the generic wrappers these modules build on and
before the homogeneous decoder discoverer is registered, so Nemotron-H's
more specific discoverer still matches first.
- Each package's `__init__.py` keeps importing only `specs`, so `import
modelopt.torch.models` does not pull in quantization or transformers.
- No public API or quantization behavior changes; only private
(`_`-prefixed) names change module.

Merge in order. #2576 targets `main`; each later PR targets the one
before it.

1. #2576 — Add model specs for llama4, qwen3_vl_moe, falcon, step3p5 and
step3p7 ← **this PR**
2. #2577 — Add the `modeling_ptq.py` convention; move Nemotron-H, Falcon
and Llama4
3. #2578 — Move GPT-OSS and Qwen3-VL-MoE
4. #2580 — Move the Step family (step3p5, shared by step3p7)

The DBRX slice (#2579) was dropped: #2649 removed DBRX support, so there
was nothing left to move.

### This PR [1/4]

Registers a `ModelSpec` for each model type that gains `modeling_ptq.py`
later in the series but has no spec yet. Each spec records only facts
checked against transformers 4.57 and 5.14:

- `llama4` and `qwen3_vl_moe`: fused MoE layout
(`gate_up_proj`/`down_proj`), no gate/up pair, grouped export off. This
is data only: both blocks were already detected as MoE (structurally and
by name), and their expert containers are exported without name lookups.
- `falcon`: dense, no sections.
- `step3p5` / `step3p7`: `modeling_source="remote_code"` and
intentionally no `MoESpec`. Step's expert projections sit directly on
the MoE MLP with no `experts` container. Declaring the block would make
`is_moe` claim it and send AWQ export into `get_experts_list`, which
does not support that layout. `step3p7` gets its own package, following
the `gemma4_text` / `gemma4` precedent.

The exhaustive spec tables in
`tests/unit/torch/models/test_model_specs.py` (`EXPECTED_MOE_LAYOUTS`,
`root_class_names`) gain the two MoE rows.

### Usage

No API change. The new specs are read through the existing registry,
e.g. `get_spec("llama4").moe_spec`.

### Testing

Each branch of the stack checked out and tested with `pytest
tests/unit/torch/models tests/unit/torch/quantization
tests/unit/torch/export tests/unit/recipe` on CPU (torch 2.11,
transformers 5.14), on `main` at 9f902ae (#2649): 2248 passed, 7
skipped. The new block names resolve in `test_specs_vs_transformers.py`,
and the step3p5/step3p7 remote-code absence checks pass. Class names
were also checked against the transformers 4.57 wheel. GPU tests and the
transformers 4.57 matrix are left to CI.

### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*"

- Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ Only private (`_`-prefixed)
names change module; public API and quantization behavior are unchanged.
- If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP
dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A
- Did you write any new necessary tests?: ✅ Spec tables extended
(`EXPECTED_MOE_LAYOUTS`, `root_class_names`).
- Did you update
[Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?:
N/A (internal refactor)

### What does this PR do?

Type of change: Refactor

### Summary of the series

Model-specific PTQ modeling moves out of
`modelopt/torch/quantization/plugins/huggingface.py` into the per-model
packages under `modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py`,
next to each model's `specs.py`. By the end of the series
`huggingface.py` shrinks from ~1880 to ~1500 lines and keeps only the
code shared across models: sequential/fused MoE auto-detection,
attention, `FP8Linear`, `CompressedLinear`, parallel linears, and the
transposed-quantization helpers that gpt_oss and llama4 share. Model
types that gain PTQ modeling but had no `ModelSpec` get one.

- Class and function bodies move verbatim. The only rewrites: on-the-fly
callbacks are added to `CUSTOM_MODEL_PLUGINS` by their own module, and
`is_homogeneous_hf_model` imports `is_nemotron_h_model` lazily.
- `huggingface.py` imports every `modeling_ptq` from an explicit list.
The list sits after the generic wrappers these modules build on and
before the homogeneous decoder discoverer is registered, so Nemotron-H's
more specific discoverer still matches first.
- Each package's `__init__.py` keeps importing only `specs`, so `import
modelopt.torch.models` does not pull in quantization or transformers.
- No public API or quantization behavior changes; only private
(`_`-prefixed) names change module.

Merge in order. #2576 targets `main`; each later PR targets the one
before it.

1. #2576 — Add model specs for llama4, qwen3_vl_moe, falcon, step3p5 and
step3p7
2. #2577 — Add the `modeling_ptq.py` convention; move Nemotron-H, Falcon
and Llama4 ← **this PR**
3. #2578 — Move GPT-OSS
4. #2580 — Move the Step family (step3p5, shared by step3p7)

The DBRX slice (#2579) was dropped: #2649 removed DBRX support, so there
was nothing left to move. Likewise, the Qwen3-VL-MoE half of [3/4] was
dropped: #2670 removed its pre-5.12 wrapper.

### This PR [2/4]

Introduces `<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py` and moves the first three
models there:

- `nemotron_h`: `is_nemotron_h_model` / `get_nemotron_h_decoder_layers`
and their layerwise-calibration registration.
- `falcon`: the `FalconLinear` registration and
`register_falcon_linears_on_the_fly`.
- `llama4`: `_QuantLlama4TextExperts` and its registration.

The registrations move in the form #2670 gave them (a top-level
transformers import plus `if ... not in QuantModuleRegistry`), and
`huggingface.py` drops the imports it no longer uses. It also adds the
`importlib` loop in `huggingface.py` that imports each `modeling_ptq`,
documents the convention in `modelopt/torch/models/README.md` and the
package docstring, and adds
`tests/unit/torch/models/test_modeling_ptq_registration.py`, which
checks in a fresh interpreter per case that registration does not depend
on which module is imported first.

It also raises the `llama4`, `qwen3_vl_moe` and `falcon` specs from
#2576 to the transformers 5.5 floor that #2670 set for every other spec,
and drops the `qwen3_vl_moe` spec's pointer to the pre-5.12 wrapper
#2670 removed.

### Usage

No API change. To add PTQ support for a new model, put its wrapper in
`modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py` and add
`<model_type>` to the import loop at the end of
`quantization/plugins/huggingface.py`.

### Testing

Each branch of the stack checked out and tested on `main` at 90ba9fb,
CPU, torch 2.11. With transformers 5.18: `pytest tests/unit/torch/models
tests/unit/torch/quantization tests/unit/torch/export
tests/unit/recipe`, 2370 passed, 1 skipped. With transformers 5.5 (the
new floor): `tests/unit/torch/models` plus `test_moe_linear.py` and
`test_huggingface.py`, 205 passed, 1 skipped. GPU tests are left to CI.

### Before your PR is "*Ready for review*"

- Is this change backward compatible?: ✅ Only private (`_`-prefixed)
names change module; public API and quantization behavior are unchanged.
- If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP
dependency, did you follow guidance in `CONTRIBUTING.md`: N/A
- Did you write any new necessary tests?: N/A (verbatim move; covered by
existing tests)
- Did you update
[Changelog](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/blob/main/CHANGELOG.rst)?:
N/A (internal refactor)
- Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌

On CI the test's child interpreters inherited COVERAGE_PROCESS_START and traced their torch and transformers imports, and seven of them at once on a small runner outlasted the 60 s per-test cap. Drop coverage from the children, which only assert, run at most one per CPU, and give the test an explicit 300 s timeout (the override tests/conftest.py documents).

LGTM: the wrapper moves verbatim and registration remains covered; human sign-off is needed for licensing and the justified test-harness edits.

Needs action:

  • Confirm the new gpt_oss/modeling_ptq.py header’s 2024 copyright year against the 2026 LICENSE_HEADER, or update it to match.
  • Sign off on the registration test’s scheduling, timeout, and coverage-environment changes; existing assertions remain intact and GPT-OSS coverage is added.

### Summary of the series

Model-specific PTQ modeling moves out of
`modelopt/torch/quantization/plugins/huggingface.py` into the per-model
packages under `modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py`,
next to each model's `specs.py`. By the end of the series

Merge in order. #2576, #2577 and #2578 have merged; this last slice,
#2580, now targets `main`.

1. #2576 — Add model specs for llama4, qwen3_vl_moe, falcon, step3p5 and
step3p7 (merged)
2. #2577 — Add the `modeling_ptq.py` convention; move Nemotron-H, Falcon
and Llama4 (merged)
3. #2578 — Move GPT-OSS (merged)
4. #2580 — Move the Step family (step3p5, shared by step3p7) ← **this
PR**

The DBRX slice (#2579) was dropped: #2649 removed DBRX support, so there
was nothing left to move. Likewise, the Qwen3-VL-MoE half of [3/4] was
dropped: #2670 removed its pre-5.12 wrapper.

### This PR [4/4]

Moves `_QuantMoELinear`, `_is_expert_indexed_moe_linear`,
`_is_step_family_model`, `register_moe_linear_on_the_fly` and
`_reconstruct_fused_moe_linear` into `step3p5/modeling_ptq.py`, which
also serves `step3p7`. This carries over #2569's switch of
`_is_step_family_model` to `hf_model_type`; `huggingface.py` drops its
now-unused `hf_model_type` and `re` imports.

Export (`hf_export_handlers.py`, `layerwise_export.py`,
`unified_export_hf.py`, `unified_export_hf_streaming.py`) imports these
names from the new module. The imports stay deferred, because
`modelopt.torch.quantization` imports `modelopt.torch.export` and
importing at module scope would risk an import cycle; the comments now
give that reason. The PTQ skill references (`unsupported-models.md`,
`checkpoint-validation.md`) now point agents at
`modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py` for model-specific
patches.

Rebasing onto #2649 also replaces the README's DBRX example of a
model-specific wrapper with Llama4's fused BMM experts.

`step3p7` also gets its own `modeling_ptq.py`, which imports the
Step-3.5 module: Step-3.7 remote-code checkpoints use the same
`MoELinear`, and today they are covered only because the HF plugin
imports every `modeling_ptq`. With its own module, a future loader that
imports PTQ modeling by model type finds it too.

### Usage

No API change. To add PTQ support for a new model, put its wrapper in
`modelopt/torch/models/<model_type>/modeling_ptq.py` and add
`<model_type>` to the import loop at the end of
`quantization/plugins/huggingface.py`.

### Testing

Each branch of the stack checked out and tested on `main` at 90ba9fb,
CPU, torch 2.11. With transformers 5.18: `pytest tests/unit/torch/models
tests/unit/torch/quantization tests/unit/torch/export
tests/unit/recipe`, 2372 passed, 1 skipped. With transformers 5.5 (the
new floor): `tests/unit/torch/models` plus `test_moe_linear.py` and
`test_huggingface.py`, 207 passed, 1 skipped. GPU tests are left to CI.
