What does this PR do?

Type of change: Bug fix

Pins two examples/gpt-oss dependencies that broke tests/examples/gpt-oss/test_gpt_oss_qat.py::test_gpt_oss_sft_toy on PR CI on 2026-10-08 (19 failed runs across 16 PRs). The example installs requirements.txt with open ranges, so each run picked up whatever was newest.

The last passing runs had exactly trl 1.14.2 and trackio 0.41.0 (e.g. https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/actions/runs/37828686284/job/113490544527).

The trl cap should be lifted once TRL skips the fused head for CPU training. Longer term, PR CI could install example dependencies from a bot-maintained constraints file (like bump_uv_lock.yml does for uv.lock) with nightly runs on unpinned latest, so an upstream release doesn't break every open PR at once.

Usage

N/A

Testing

  • pip install --dry-run -r examples/gpt-oss/requirements.txt resolves to trl 1.14.2 and trackio 0.41.0, matching the last passing CI runs.
  • Read the TRL 1.15.0 wheel to confirm the fused-head path has no CPU fallback or opt-out.
  • pre-commit passes on the changed file.
  • The trtllm (gpt-oss) example job on this PR is the end-to-end check.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated setup configuration for the GPT-OSS example. This change does not alter the example’s user-facing features or behavior.

trl 1.15 routes SFTTrainer's loss through a Triton fused LM head with no
CPU fallback, so the CPU-only toy SFT test fails with "0 active drivers".
An old trackio resolved alongside huggingface_hub 1.33 fails to import
CommitOperationAdd. Both broke test_gpt_oss_sft_toy on PR CI.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The GPT-OSS example requirements now set a minimum version for trackio and an upper version bound for trl.

Changes

GPT-OSS requirements

Layer / File(s) Summary
Example dependency bounds
examples/gpt-oss/requirements.txt
trackio now requires version 0.41 or later. trl now requires a version below 1.15.

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 038f8

This change only tightens version bounds for two GPT-OSS example dependencies to restore the CPU test and fix a trackio import failure. No new merge-blocking risk is introduced. Raising the existing Transformers minimum is a worthwhile follow-up but does not depend on this change.

Transformers 5.9.0 Trainer save_model processing_class save_pretrained source

💡 Result:

In **Transformers v5.9.0**, the Trainer docs say `processing_class` is saved alongside the model, and `save_model()` writes the model so it can be reloaded with `from_pretrained()`. ([huggingface.co](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v5.9.0/ja/main_classes/trainer?utm_source=openai))

The versioned source is [src/transformers/trainer.py at v5.9.0](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v5.9.0/src/transformers/trainer.py). I could confirm it stores `processing_class` on the Trainer, but the source view available here didn’t expose the `save_model` implementation lines, so I can’t verify the exact `save_pretrained()` call path from that view. ([github.com](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v5.9.0/src/transformers/trainer.py))

GHSA-xrqw-3rrv-vx5w transformers save_pretrained chat template path traversal affected versions

💡 Result:

**Affected versions:** `transformers` **below 5.10.0**. **Fixed in 5.10.0**; upgrade to that version or later. ([github.com](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-xrqw-3rrv-vx5w))

The flaw is in `save_pretrained()` for `PreTrainedTokenizerBase` and `ProcessorMixin`: untrusted named chat-template keys could be used as filenames, allowing path traversal and arbitrary file writes outside the intended save directory. Exploitation requires a victim to download and save a malicious model/tokenizer or processor. ([github.com](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-xrqw-3rrv-vx5w))

Raise the Transformers minimum to 5.10.0.

The GPT-OSS example loads a tokenizer from model_name_or_path, passes it to QATSFTTrainer, and saves the trainer output. Transformers 5.9.0 saves the processing class with the model, so an untrusted artifact can reach the vulnerable tokenizer save path.
