Qualify the documented FP8 attention scope for MTP.
The FP8 projection rules run before *mtp.* disables all MTP quantizers. Later MTP rules restore only experts and KV quantizers, so MTP attention projections do not receive FP8 quantization. However, the recipe metadata and modelopt_recipes/ptq.md describe attention projections as FP8 without excluding MTP.
The selective MTP re-enablement indicates that this is an intentional unquantized exception. Qualify the recipe descriptions instead of restoring FP8 projections without a checkpoint contract.

Bot review (bedrock-claude-opus-5-5) — DM the bot to share feedback.
The recipe looks correct, but the calibration fallback added to nemotron_vl_calib.py has no unit test and has robustness gaps. The new YAML's license header is also missing most of the canonical text.
Needs action:
- Move the
hasattr(full_model, "extract_feature")check innemotron_vl_calib.pyso it runs beforeimg_context_token_idand the embedding lookup. Pass the dtype-castpixel_valuesanduse_cache=Falseinto the fallback forward (see inline). - Add a unit test with a mock module that has no
extract_feature. It should check that the wrapper forward is called with the non-None batch keys. - Replace the 2-line SPDX header in
nvfp4-aggressive-mse.yamlwith the full canonicalLICENSE_HEADER, which sibling recipes use. A human has to sign off on the licensing change. - Fix or reword the
_lm_devcomment. The code aligns inputs to the embedding device, not to the first block's device (see inline).
No action needed:
- The KV layout matches what the operator asked for. The backbone
*[kv]_bmm_quantizerhasuse_constant_amax: true, the same asconfigs/ptq/units/kv_fp8_cast.yaml, so it exports no scales. After the*mtp.*disable, onlymtp.layers.0KV is turned back on as calibrated FP8. Last-match-wins ordering gives onek_scale/v_scalepair on MTP, which matches the shipped checkpoint. *[qkvo]_projdoesn't catchup/down/in/out/latent_proj.

Bot comment.
This check runs after full_model.img_context_token_id and language_model.get_input_embeddings()(input_ids) have already been used. Any wrapper that doesn't have those attributes still fails before it reaches the fallback, and the embedding lookup is wasted work. Move the check to just after the image_flags handling. Also, the fallback passes the original batch, so the dtype-cast pixel_values above is thrown away. It also doesn't pass use_cache=False. The module docstring says wrapper forward() is unsafe in calibration (dist.get_rank, past_key_values). Please add a short note on why that doesn't apply to omni wrappers, and add a unit test for this path using a mock.

Bot comment.
The comment says this aligns to the LLM's first block, but _lm_dev is the device of the embedding table, which is where inputs_embeds already lives. Either reword the comment, or use the device of the first decoder layer if that's what is actually needed. With accelerate hooks, the first block's pre-forward hook usually moves its inputs anyway.

…tion nemotron_vl_calib.py calls full_model.extract_feature(pixel_values) unconditionally. InternVL-style Nemotron VL exposes that helper, but the omni wrappers (NemotronH_Omni_Reasoning_V3 / nemotron_h_omni) do not: they merge vision embeddings with masked_scatter inside their own forward. Calibrating such a model raises AttributeError and aborts before any statistics are collected. Fall back to the model's own forward when the helper is absent. Also align three tensors that can sit on different devices once the model spans GPUs (any sharded device_map, including --use_seq_device_map): vit_embeds against the embedding table before the merge, and attention_mask / position_ids against the LLM's first block. On a single-device model these are no-ops. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Juhi Mittal <juhim@nvidia.com>
modelopt_recipes has no architecture-tier PTQ recipe for NemotronH, the hybrid Mamba-MoE family (including the omni VL wrappers). This is the aggressive tier with weight-MSE calibration and an FP8 scale sweep: NVFP4 routed and shared MoE experts with static weight scales and dynamic NVFP4 activations, the same for the MTP block-1 experts; FP8 attention projections, Mamba in/out_proj and lm_head; BF16 latent MoE and vision tower. The MTP rules are inert on checkpoints without an MTP tail. KV cache is FP8 throughout but asymmetric by design: the backbone casts at a fixed FP8 range (use_constant_amax, as in configs/ptq/units/kv_fp8_cast, so no k_scale/v_scale is exported) while MTP attention stays data-calibrated and keeps its pair. The MTP rule restates use_constant_amax: false so it cannot inherit the backbone setting whichever way cfg blocks compose. All three numerics imports (nvfp4, nvfp4_static, fp8) and the MTP construction this relies on are already upstream, so the recipe adds no code. ptq.md gains the matching entry, which tests/unit/recipe/test_recipe_docs.py requires for every model_type/<model_type>/ptq/ directory.

Type of change: New feature + bug fix
Adds an aggressive-mse NVFP4 PTQ recipe for the
nemotron_harchitecture, and fixes thehf_ptqbug that blocks calibrating the omni VL wrappers in that family.modelopt_recipeshas no architecture-tier PTQ recipe for NemotronH. Everything the recipe dependson —
nemotron_h/nemotron_h_omnimodel support, MTP construction, thenvfp4/nvfp4_static/
fp8numerics,--calib_with_images— is already upstream, so the recipe adds no code.Recipe (

(
use_constant_amax, as inconfigs/ptq/units/kv_fp8_cast, so nok_scale/v_scaleisexported) while MTP attention stays data-calibrated and keeps its pair. The MTP rule restates
use_constant_amax: falseso it cannot inherit the backbone setting whichever waycfgblockscompose.
Bug fix.
nemotron_vl_calib.pycallsfull_model.extract_feature(pixel_values)unconditionally. InternVL-style Nemotron VL exposes that helper; the omni wrappers
(
NemotronH_Omni_Reasoning_V3/nemotron_h_omni) do not — they merge vision embeddings withmasked_scatterinside their own forward. Calibrating one raisesAttributeErrorbefore anystatistics are collected.
The fallback runs before anything InternVL-specific: a wrapper without
extract_featureusually has no
img_context_token_ideither, so testing later raises there first and the fallbackis unreachable for most of the models it exists for. It carries the dtype-cast
pixel_valuesandsets
use_cache=False, both filtered through_accepted_kwargs()so a narrow forward signaturedoes not trade the
AttributeErrorfor aTypeError.A synthesized
image_flagsis deliberately not injected — it is built onpixel_values.device, while a sharded wrapper runs its vision tower elsewhere and indexesimage_embedswith it, raisingindices should be either on cpu or on the same device as the indexed tensor. A batch-suppliedimage_flagsis device-consistent and passes through. This wascaught by an end-to-end 4-GPU run, not by the unit tests, whose mock is single-device.
The same file aligns
vit_embeds,attention_maskandposition_idsacross devices for shardeddevice maps; on a single-device model those are no-ops.
Usage
Two runtime notes for a ~232 GiB checkpoint on 4x184 GiB:
--use_seq_device_mapis required;is_nemotron_vl()otherwise pins the whole checkpoint to oneGPU and it OOMs during load.
--gpu_max_mem_percentage 0.5is also required. At the 0.8 default,sequentialpacks GPU 0 to147 GiB of weights and calibration then OOMs in the Mamba mixer
(
modeling_nemotron_h.py:538,Y_diag = (M[..., None] * hidden_states[:, :, None]).sum(3),requesting 13 GiB with GPU 0 at 180.94/184.31 GiB). At 0.5 the weights spread over three GPUs and
the run completes.
Add
--trust_remote_codeonly for checkpoints whose remote modeling code you have reviewed.--calib_with_imagesmatters on VL checkpoints: the vision tower must see image batches eventhough it stays BF16.
Testing
5 calibration cases and the full recipe suite pass, transformers 5.13.0 / torch 2.12.0a0. The
calibration mock defines neither
img_context_token_idnorlanguage_model, so reaching for eitherregresses the test.
tools/precommit/check_modelopt_recipes.pyexits 0, both across all recipes andtargeted at the new file.
End to end on 1 node x 4 x 184 GiB with a NemotronH omni VL checkpoint,
--calib_size 32:rc=0k_scale+ 1v_scale, both MTP, none on the backboneinvalid_rate0.0)Those two GSM8K numbers came from byte-identical artefacts, so the ~1.1 pp between them is
harness noise rather than a property of the checkpoint — worth knowing before reading any single
number here as a signal.
