fix(pt): fall back to single-rank .pt2 when the optional with-comm artifact export fails - #6027
Fillianore wants to merge 4 commits into
Conversation
`dp --pt freeze` aborts entirely when the optional parallel with-comm artifact export raises, leaving behind an unloadable partial .pt2 that misses `model/extra/metadata.json`. On torch 2.12.1 the export reliably fails: `aot_export_module`'s `detect_fake_mode` sees graph inputs from two different FakeTensorModes (one created by the earlier main-graph `make_fx` trace, one by `torch.export`'s `make_fake_inputs`) and raises AssertionError. The with-comm artifact is optional by design: the .pt2 format and the loader already handle its absence. Catch the failure, log a warning and mark has_comm_artifact=false so freeze still produces a valid single-rank archive.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Add regression coverage for the with-comm export failure. The current tests cover successful artifact export and non-applicable has_comm_artifact=false cases, but none makes _export_with_comm_artifact raise through this caller. Add a focused test that forces the exception, freezes the model, asserts has_comm_artifact is false, checks that model/extra/forward_lower_with_comm.pt2 is absent, and loads the archive in single-rank mode.

The fallback itself is consistent with the existing archive/loader contract: a missing with-comm artifact is a supported single-rank state, and the metadata update reflects that correctly. The remaining blocker is regression coverage for this exact exception path. CodeRabbit already raised the concrete test gap inline, so I am not duplicating the same inline comment: please add a focused freeze regression that forces _export_with_comm_artifact to fail and verifies the archive still completes/loads, has_comm_artifact is false, and the with-comm entry is absent.
The GitHub Actions runs for this fork currently report action_required, so there is not yet executable CI evidence for the head either.

Force _export_with_comm_artifact to raise through freeze_sezm_to_pt2 and verify the archive still completes: metadata.json is present, has_comm_artifact is false, forward_lower_with_comm.pt2 is absent, a single-rank fallback WARNING is logged, and the frozen archive loads and runs via aoti_load_package with finite outputs.

NEEDS HUMAN REVIEW
Re-reviewed the new head after the requested regression was added. The new test now exercises the exact failure path by forcing _export_with_comm_artifact to raise, then verifies freeze still produces a valid archive, model/extra/metadata.json is present with has_comm_artifact=false, the with-comm artifact is absent, and the resulting package loads and produces finite single-rank outputs. I also re-checked the fallback implementation itself against the existing archive contract and did not find a new high-confidence functional or compatibility blocker.
I am not approving this head yet because all GitHub Actions runs for this fork are currently action_required, so there is still no executable exact-head CI evidence. Once those workflows are approved/run and pass, this head should be eligible for final approval if nothing else changes.

Exact-head CI is now complete and green across Build C library, Build C++, Test C++, Test Python, Test CUDA, CodeQL, and the PyPI build. The previously requested regression for the optional with-comm export failure is present on this unchanged head, and the implementation remains consistent with the existing single-rank archive/loader contract. I found no new high-confidence blocker.

Requesting changes on the approach, not merely on the exception type or test coverage.
The reported bug is a FakeTensorMode conflict during with-comm export. This PR leaves that bug in place and instead reports a successful freeze after dropping the model's multi-rank artifact. The intended outcome should be a working export with its supported capabilities preserved, not a single-rank workaround.
The archive format allowing an absent communication artifact does not mean arbitrary failures while exporting a supported artifact are acceptable. The new catch-all covers tracing, export, compilation and temporary-file operations. Controlled fault injection confirmed that programming errors (NameError) and filesystem errors (PermissionError), as well as AssertionError, are all converted into normal returns with has_comm_artifact=false. The warning and metadata are honest, but they do not restore the missing functionality: the multi-rank consumer still rejects the archive later.
Please replace this bypass with a root-cause fix:
- Reproduce the actual FakeTensorMode conflict with a minimal normal-export/with-comm-export sequence under the reported configuration. Identify where tensors from incompatible modes enter the export and repair that trace/export interaction. If the defect is upstream in PyTorch, establish that with a reproducer and use an appropriate targeted compatibility fix; dropping with-comm export is not a fix for it.
- Demonstrate that the affected sequence successfully exports both artifacts and retains the expected metadata/capability. Preserve propagation of unrelated programming, compiler and I/O failures. Narrowing
except Exceptionalone would not resolve the fundamental objection. - Treat incomplete output publication separately. Writing an archive in a temporary location and publishing it only after completion can avoid exposing a partial file without turning a failed export into success. This is a pre-existing write-path concern, not justification for suppressing the compiler bug.
- Replace the new simulated-failure test with focused coverage of the actual defect and corrected behavior. The current test replaces the failing exporter with a generic
RuntimeError, so it proves only that the exception is ignored. Keep the regression as small as the faulty boundary permits, reuse existing archive/load coverage, and avoid another redundant heavyweight compile/GPU test.
Validation already performed on this head: the new fallback test and existing successful-artifact test pass on CPU; base/head fault-injection comparisons and Ruff/whitespace checks also pass. Those results show the fallback works as implemented, not that the FakeTensorMode bug is fixed. The original PyTorch 2.12.1 CUDA failure has not been independently reproduced in this review.
The merge blocker is that the PR changes failure handling instead of fixing the reported bug. Please revise the implementation in that direction.

I reproduced the FakeTensorMode conflict mechanism from the reported base, and the relevant root-cause fix is already on the latest The source in this reproducer is DeePMD's old This was already corrected by #6016 ( Verification:
There are important limits: I did not have the original checkpoint or Blackwell CUDA setup, so this is not a claim to have rerun that exact configuration. Stronger CPU testing also exposed a separate post-compilation SIMD execution crash with nonzero weights. The same model's two AOTI packages run and match eager results when compiled with scalar CPU code generation as a diagnostic; that does not constitute a proposed fix for that separate issue. Closing this fallback PR because the reproduced FakeTensorMode ownership defect has already been addressed in #6016. The catch-all downgrade is not needed to repair that defect. Any desired single-rank recovery policy or atomic publication of complete archives should be considered separately, rather than presented as the fix for this conflict. If the original configuration still produces a FakeTensorMode mismatch on current master, please provide its current traceback and a minimal configuration so the remaining source can be identified. |
