CkptCtx dataclass ¶
Per-checkpoint facts a QuantKey cannot carry.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
FormatScheme ¶
Optional per-format hooks that compose around the QuantKey schemes.
Extension seam for residue that belongs to a format as a whole rather than a single QuantKey — an extra parameter the weight/activation schemes don't cover, or a tweak before/after their process. All hooks default to no-ops; most formats need none (they are a pure (weight, activation) key pair). To add one: subclass, override the hooks you need, and return an instance from the format's resolve() branch — no change to ModelOptLinearMethod itself.
Methods:
-
apply–Wrap the kernel's forward.
kernel_apply(layer, x, bias) -> Tensor. -
extra_weights–Register format-level params (after the key schemes' weights).
-
kernel_weight_shape–Return the weight shape the selected kernel will receive.
-
post_process–Run after the key schemes'
process, before the kernel's. -
pre_process–Run before the key schemes'
process.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
apply(layer, x, bias, kernel_apply) ¶
Wrap the kernel's forward. kernel_apply(layer, x, bias) -> Tensor.
Default: delegate unchanged. A format whose residue lives at compute time (e.g. run the GEMM on a padded weight then slice the output back to its logical width, #53132-style) overrides this and calls kernel_apply in the middle.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
extra_weights(layer, shapes, ctx, wl) ¶
kernel_weight_shape(layer) ¶
post_process(layer) ¶
KDynamicNoParam ¶
Bases: QuantKeyScheme
Dynamic activation with no stored scale (W8A8): quantized at runtime in the kernel. NOT the same as activation=None (weight-only) — init_fp8 needs a non-None activation key. Activation-role only. Serves the fp8 per-token, fp8 per-block, and mxfp8 dynamic activation keys.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
KFp8Block128 ¶
Bases: QuantKeyScheme
128x128 block-static FP8 weight ('PbWo'). Weight-role only. ModelOpt exports the scale 4-D [out_blk,1,in_blk,1]; process squeezes to 2-D. No transpose (block kernel keeps [out,in]).
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
KFp8StaticChannel ¶
Bases: QuantKeyScheme
Per-channel static FP8 weight (the 'PcPt' weight). Weight-role only — there is no static per-channel activation today.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
KFp8StaticTensor ¶
Bases: QuantKeyScheme
Plain per-tensor static FP8 — bivalent: serves BOTH the weight slot and the activation slot (W8A8). One key in both QuantSpec slots.

ModelOptKVCacheMethod ¶

Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
ModelOptLinearMethod ¶

Registered for weight_loader_v2 (like every ModelOpt linear method) so the BasevLLMParameter params route through the v2 fused loader, not the legacy shape-assert path.

Methods:
-
get_quant_method–Return quantize-method based on layer.

_resolve_quant_algo(prefix) ¶
Look up the quant_algo for a vLLM-side layer prefix.
Tries three strategies in order: 1. Direct lookup in quantized_layers. 2. Packed/fused-layer lookup (unfuse via packed_modules_mapping). 3. Prefix-based lookup for RoutedExperts (any child key starts with prefix + ".").
Returns the upper-cased quant_algo string, or None if the prefix is not found.

_dequant_mxfp8_weights_to_bf16(layer) ¶
One-time MXFP8->BF16 weight dequant for the emulation path.
On devices without a native MXFP8 MoE kernel (e.g. gfx942 / MI300), Mxfp8EmulationTritonExperts otherwise dequantizes every expert weight to BF16 on every forward step -- the dominant cost (conc1 ~1.3 tok/s). Doing the dequant once here and replacing the MXFP8 parameters with BF16 makes the MoE run exactly like a plain BF16 checkpoint (full precision, no per-step dequant); SwiGLU-OAI is still applied by the experts' activation() override. The MXFP8 weights are freed by replace_parameter (BF16 is 2x their size; the small E8M0 scale tensors are left in place, unused).

_extract_modelopt_quant_algo(hf_quant_cfg) staticmethod ¶
Extract upper-cased quant_algo from a modelopt config.
Returns the quant_algo string (upper-cased), or None if the config is not a modelopt config.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
is_layer_excluded(prefix) ¶
Check if a layer should be excluded from quantization.
Handles both exact matching (for fused layers) and ModelOpt wildcard matching.
The ModelOpt exclude_modules list is a list of wildcards.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
QuantKeyScheme ¶
One scheme per QuantKey. Selected by key content; the base supplies the role from the slot it fills the key into (wkey->WEIGHT, akey->ACT).
Every scheme branches on role explicitly and rejects any role it has not validated — never falling through to the wrong role's registration, which would allocate the wrong parameters and produce garbage silently.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
RuntimeDtypes dataclass ¶
Runtime/model dtypes kernels need — format-agnostic.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
Shapes dataclass ¶
Layer geometry from create_weights args.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
_DropInputScale ¶
Bases: FormatScheme
Interim: register then drop a W4A16 checkpoint's on-disk input_scale.
Kept for backward compat with previously-exported ModelOpt checkpoints.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
_Fp8PbWoPartialBlock ¶
Bases: FormatScheme
FP8_PB_WO output width that is not a multiple of 128 (a partial trailing block; e.g. GLM's replicated fused_qkv_a_proj = 2048 + 576 = 2624).
The block kernel needs full 128-blocks, so pad the weight up to the block boundary with zeros before the kernel's post-load, then slice the GEMM output back to the logical width. This is #53132's approach, expressed as the format's compute-time residue on the generic method. The cdiv-sized scale from KFp8Block128 already matches the padded block count, so only the weight rows and the output need adjusting.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
algos_owned_by(config_name) ¶
The linear algos a given config accepts, for its quant_algo validation.
build_linear_method(config, algo, prefix) ¶
Construct the linear method for algo.
Returns a bespoke method if one is registered in LINEAR_METHOD_BUILDERS, else the generic ModelOptLinearMethod built from resolve(algo, config, prefix). Single indirection point shared by the homogeneous and mixed-precision dispatch, so a new format plugs in without editing either get_quant_method.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
maybe_fuse_global_scales(layer) ¶
alpha = input_global_scale * weight_global_scale, presence-gated.
W4A4 has both -> computed; W4A16 has no input_global_scale -> skipped.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
resolve(algo, subcfg, prefix) ¶
Turn a sub-config into (QuantSpec, CkptCtx, format_scheme).
Strictly read-only over subcfg: in mixed precision the same sub-config is shared with the MoE method, so writing back would leak a linear-only change into MoE.
Source code in vllm/model_executor/layers/quantization/modelopt.py
select_linear_kernel(spec, layer, rt, weight_shape=None) ¶
Thin family dispatcher on the weight key: nvfp4 / mxfp8 / fp8.
