[5591371] Add performance guard for ONNX Autotune - #2318
Conversation
Benchmark precision-matched Autotune placements and retain calibrated Q/DQ only when it meets the configured TensorRT speedup threshold. Persist deterministic hierarchical decisions and save the high-precision fallback when no placement qualifies.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughONNX Autotune now converts models to the requested runtime precision before benchmarking. It applies model transforms to all benchmark exports and selects calibrated Q/DQ only when latency meets the configured threshold. Otherwise, it saves the high-precision model without Q/DQ.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Integrated Autotune can reuse stale latency measurements after model transformation and persist a suboptimal quantization scheme, causing the selected output to miss the intended performance guard.

Full details: Security Anti-PatternsExplanation No listed security anti-pattern was introduced. The full PR diff (51cc5db..HEAD) changes only ONNX quantization Python files under modelopt and adds no examples or dependency-file changes. Added lines contain no unsafe torch.load, hardcoded allow_pickle=True, hardcoded trust_remote_code=True, eval/exec, or # nosec usage. Existing security-sensitive occurrences are unchanged, and the existing calibration np.load uses the caller-controlled trust_calibration_data setting.

The performance guard and shared precision-conversion path look coherent and are covered by focused unit and end-to-end-style tests. The two new files use the repository's canonical NVIDIA Apache-2.0 header. One minor repository-convention issue remains: a newly added Python import is inside a function without a documented reason.

Please move this import to the module import section. If it must remain local to avoid loading Autotune's TensorRT/PyTorch dependencies on the normal quantization path, add a concrete comment explaining that reason; local imports require an explicit justification in this project.

Kept the import local and added a concrete comment explaining that importing the Autotune workflow at module scope would load its Torch and TensorRT dependency chain on the ordinary quantization path. Addressed in 84477269.

Bot review (gpt-5.6-sol) — DM the bot to share feedback.
The three prior minor findings are addressed: the deferred Autotune import now has a concrete dependency-loading rationale, the test imports are module-scoped, and the changelog entry is under 0.47 Quantization/New Features. The performance guard and focused tests otherwise look coherent. One resume-path correctness issue remains: state files can restore benchmark results measured without the new runtime-precision transform, so resumed searches do not necessarily evaluate/select placements in the requested precision.
Additional comments (outside the PR diff):
modelopt/onnx/quantization/autotune/workflows.py:254— > Bot comment.
A state file created by standalone Autotune or by an earlier version contains baseline/scheme latencies measured without model_transform. Loading it here restores those measurements, and _is_region_profiled() can then skip every region, so the selected placement is based entirely on a different runtime precision despite this PR's guarantee that search candidates use the delivered model's precision. The final guard prevents a slowdown from being saved, but it cannot recover the placement search that was skipped and may return no_qdq even when another placement would pass. Please fingerprint the transform/runtime-precision settings in state and reject/invalidate incompatible measurements, or re-profile loaded schemes when a transform is supplied; add a resume test covering an old/untransformed state.
Treat saved benchmark measurements as incompatible when a runtime-precision transform is active. Preserve saved schemes as cache seeds and remeasure the baseline and placements with the current configuration.

Invalidate existing cache measurements before re-adding schemes.
pattern_cache is loaded before this block. PatternCache.add_pattern_schemes() keeps the lower latency for duplicate scheme hashes. Therefore, setting a checkpoint scheme to float("inf") does not invalidate an existing finite cache entry. A transformed run can reuse latency measured for the old model and select the wrong scheme.
Clear or replace matching cache measurements, or key measurements by the transform configuration. Add a regression test with a pre-populated cache.

Re-review complete. The prior critical resume-path issue is addressed: when a runtime-precision transform is active, restored profiled patterns and the baseline are invalidated, saved schemes are retained only as unmeasured seeds, the current requested configuration is restored, and the workflow re-benchmarks transformed exports. The regression test covers stale checkpoint measurements/configuration and verifies every benchmark/export receives the transform. Earlier minor import and changelog concerns are also resolved. The two new files use the canonical repository license header.

What does this PR do?
Type of change: Bug fix
This PR prevents integrated ONNX Autotune from saving an INT8/FP8 result that does not improve TensorRT latency. Autotune search models now use the same FP16/BF16 conversion path as the delivered model. After calibration and existing Q/DQ post-processing, the exact candidate is benchmarked against its precision-matched no-Q/DQ baseline.
Config.performance_threshold(1.02xby default, inclusive).no_qdq.Usage
The output contains either the accepted Q/DQ placement or the high-precision fallback. The log reports
qdqorno_qdq, the two measured latencies, the speedup, and the threshold.Testing
--autotune=defaulton a syntheticConv(128→128) → Relu → MaxPool → Gemmgraph. The calibrated guard retained two Q/DQ sites from its paired measurement (0.066 ms / 0.064 ms = 1.023x, threshold1.020x). The selected, baseline, and candidate models all built withtrtexec --stronglyTypedwithout an output-type error. Five alternating follow-up trials also favored Q/DQ (1.016xmedian speedup).Before your PR is "Ready for review"
