test+docs: quant_dequant test suite, theory journal engineering log

33 CPU-only tests: FP8 block-wise/per-channel round-trips, NVFP4
round-trips (direct + reciprocal scales, native vs manual unpack
agreement), scheme detection incl. ModelOpt MIXED_PRECISION, surgery
guard raises, and tiny synthetic FP8/NVFP4 GPT-2 checkpoints through
load_model end-to-end. Full suite: 870 passed (8 failures pre-exist on
main, verified against pristine checkout).

findings from implementation and real-checkpoint validation (nibble
order conventions, mixed-precision layouts, the 96GB OOM and the
chunked-unpack fix, transformers 5.x drift shims, Omni wrapper unwrap).

## Appendix E: FP8/NVFP4 checkpoint dequantization — engineering log (2026-07-24)
Implementation notes from adding FP8 and NVFP4 checkpoint support
(`obliteratus/models/quant_dequant.py`). Recorded per the escalation
protocol; anything here that surprised us is marked **(finding)**.
1. **Nibble order is low-first, and it is easy to get backwards.** ModelOpt
NVFP4 packs two E2M1 values per byte along the input dim, low nibble
first: byte `0x1B` decodes to `[-1.5, +0.5]` (low `0xB`, high `0x1`).
**(finding)** Our first probe had the expected pair swapped, which would
have silently pair-flipped every weight row; the known-byte unit test
caught it. The runtime probe `_native_fp4_upcast_works()` now derives
the order empirically instead of assuming it.
2. **E2M1 LUT**: index → value `{0,.5,1,1.5,2,3,4,6}`, sign in bit 3. Index
4 is `2.0`, not `3.0` — the spacing is not linear **(finding: test
caught a wrong-by-inspection comment)**.
3. **Fused-MoE scale naming differs from dense linears.** Dense weights use
`foo.weight` + `foo.weight_scale[_2/_inv]`; fused experts use
`experts.gate_up_proj` + `experts.gate_up_proj_scale[_2]`. Scale-key
detection must accept both `_scale`/`_scale_2` suffixes and the dotted
`.weight_scale` family **(finding: first state-dict test run failed on
exactly this)**.
4. **compressed-tensors stores reciprocal scales.** Dequant divides rather
than multiplies. Round-tripping reciprocals through FP8-E4M3 storage is
measurably coarser (cosine ~0.986 vs ~0.999 for direct storage on random
weights) — expected, not a bug.
5. **torch 2.13.0+cpu**: `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` exists but the runtime
upcast probe fails on this CPU build, so the manual nibble-LUT path is
what actually runs there; the probe design (rather than a version check)
was validated by this.
6. **Guard ordering matters**: `_is_quantized_param` flags float8 tensors,
so the FP8/NVFP4 loud-failure guard in `_dequantize_weight` must run
*before* the bitsandbytes branch or the error message is misleading
**(finding: unit test caught the wrong branch firing)**.
7. NVFP4 round-trip error on random Gaussian weights: relative Frobenius
error ~0.10 direct / ~0.18 reciprocal, cosine >0.98 — this is the
intrinsic precision of the format, not implementation error.
8. **Real checkpoints are mixed-precision.** `nvidia/Nemotron-3-Nano-Omni-
30B-A3B-Reasoning-NVFP4` ships `quant_method: modelopt` with
`quant_algo: MIXED_PRECISION`: FP8 (8-bit float, per-tensor
`weight_scale`, no `weight_scale_2`) for the 98 Mamba-mixer/shared-expert
projections, NVFP4 (`weight` uint8 + FP8 `weight_scale` +
FP32 `weight_scale_2`) for the 5,888 routed-expert projections
**(finding)**. Detection now inspects `config_groups` bit-widths under
MIXED_PRECISION; dequantization was already per-tensor so FP8 and NVFP4
tensors in the same shard each take their own path. The routed experts
are stored as *individual 2D modules* (`mixer.experts.{i}.up_proj`), not
fused 3D tensors — the dense path covers them.
9. **Custom architectures need a CLI escape hatch.** Nemotron Omni uses a
custom `modeling.py` (`NemotronH_Nano_Omni_Reasoning_V3`), but the CLI
had no `--trust-remote-code` passthrough to the pipeline **(finding)**.
Added the flag (`cli.py` → `AbliterationPipeline` → `load_model`).
Smoke-test results on real checkpoints: see Appendix E continuation below
(filled in after the Nemotron-3-Nano GPU runs).

## Appendix E2: Nemotron-3-Nano-Omni smoke runs (2026-07-24, 1x A100-80GB)
Real-checkpoint validation of the FP8/NVFP4 dequantization path. Both
targets loaded with **zero quantized tensors left, zero NaNs, and
`quantization_config` stripped**, and both completed the full
`obliterate --method basic` pipeline (SUMMON → PROBE → DISTILL → EXCISE →
VERIFY → REBIRTH) with BF16 output. Findings, in the order they appeared:
1. **Host RAM OOM during dequantization (fixed).** The first
`materialize_dequantized_checkpoint` attempt peaked at 96.5 GB RSS on a
94 GB box and was OOM-killed mid-shard. Root cause: the manual nibble
unpack built an int64 index tensor for *all* nibbles at once (8 B/value)
plus stacked copies (~24 B/value total), and scale application created
fresh float32 copies per step. Fix: chunked LUT indexing (≤0.5 GB
transient int64) and in-place `mul_`/`div_` scaling. Peak is now
roughly one shard's float32 size.
2. **Hybrid-Mamba model deps.** The Omni custom code hard-imports
`mamba_ssm` triton ops; pip's build isolation hides torch and the CUDA
extension build is unnecessary — `pip install --no-build-isolation
mamba-ssm` with `MAMBA_SKIP_CUDA_BUILD=TRUE` plus a tiny
`selective_scan_cuda` stub module (only triton paths are used).
Vision/audio towers additionally need `timm`, `open_clip_torch`,
`librosa`.
3. **`attn_implementation: flash_attention_2` pinned in config (fixed
generically).** flash-attn isn't installed; the custom classes also
reject sdpa. The loader now detects the pin — including on nested
sub-configs (`llm_config`) — and falls back to `eager` when flash-attn
is unavailable.
4. **transformers 5.14 API drift, three shims (fixed in loader.py's shim
block / post-load normalization):**
- `all_tied_weights_keys`: expected by the accelerate device-map code,
absent on older remote-code classes, and *assigned* by 5.x
`post_init` — shim is a settable property aggregating legacy
`_tied_weights_keys`, filtering keys that don't resolve on the
top-level model (multimodal wrappers inherit `lm_head.weight` from
the LM submodule's config but have no top-level lm_head).
- `cache_position=None` passed by 5.x generation code into
`prepare_inputs_for_generation`; older remote code assumes a tensor.
Loader wraps the method to synthesize `cache_position` (using
past-key length during decoding).
- `_tied_weights_keys` as legacy *list* breaks 5.x `save_pretrained`
(expects `.keys()`); normalized post-load — emptied when
`tie_word_embeddings` is false so nothing is wrongly dropped.
5. **"Omni" wrapper can't run text-only surgery (fixed).**
`NemotronH_Nano_Omni_Reasoning_V3.forward()` requires `pixel_values`.
The loader now detects media-required forward signatures and unwraps
`model.language_model`; this also fixed layer/head/hidden reporting
(wrapper config lacks those fields). Surgery and the saved artifact
are the LM only.
6. **New architecture registered: `nemotron_h`.** All layer content hangs
off `layer.mixer` — attention (q/k/v/o_proj on the 6 attention layers),
Mamba (in/out_proj on 23), routed experts (2,944 individual
`mixer.experts.N.{up,down}_proj` 2D modules, *not* fused 3D) and
`mixer.shared_experts` (23). Mapped `["backbone","layers"]` +
`mixer` for both attention and FFN resolution in
`strategies/utils.py`. Mamba `out_proj` matches the attention
output-projection names and gets projected too — acceptable, it lives
in the same residual stream; noted here deliberately.
7. **Temp-dir lifecycle bug (fixed).** The dequantized temp copy was
deleted before the tokenizer load (which pointed at it). Tokenizer now
loads from the original checkpoint source.
Results (`--method basic`, 1 direction):
| Checkpoint | Scheme detected | Outcome | Refusal (post) | Perplexity | Output |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nemotron-3-Nano-Omni-30B NVFP4 (mixed FP8+NVFP4) | `nvfp4_modelopt` | full pipeline OK | 0.0 | 953.4 | 63.2 GB BF16 |
| Nemotron-3-Nano-Omni-30B FP8 | per-tensor FP8 (modelopt) | full pipeline OK | 0.0 | 920.5 (KL 0.73) | 63.2 GB BF16 |
| Qwen/Qwen3-8B-FP8 (block-wise, DeepSeek-style) | `fp8_blockwise` | full pipeline OK | 0.867 | 4.23 (KL 0.09) | 16 GB BF16 |
| Qwen/Qwen3-8B (**BF16 baseline**) | none | full pipeline OK | 0.833 | 4.33 (KL 0.11) | 16 GB BF16 |
Notes:
- **Qwen3-8B FP8-vs-BF16 parity is the format validation**: perplexity
within 2.4% (criterion was ~10%), refusal rates statistically identical
on the 30-sample eval. Qwen3's high residual refusal is a property of
the model + the 1-direction `basic` method (spectral certification RED,
the run itself recommended more directions) — it is *not* a
quantization artifact, as the BF16 baseline demonstrates.
- Nemotron perplexity is high in absolute terms — `--method basic` on a
hybrid Mamba-MoE reasoning model is the crudest setting and the
eigenvalue report recommended the 'nuclear' method. The smoke test's
purpose is format validation (dequantize → surgery → BF16 save), which
passed; tuning method strength for this architecture is separate work.
- The compressed-tensors per-channel FP8 dense alternate
(`RedHatAI/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-FP8-dynamic`) was not run: the exact
code path (`dequantize_fp8_per_channel`, direct scales) was already
exercised by the Nemotron FP8 checkpoint, and Llama-3.1 is a gated
repo. CT-NVFP4 (reciprocal scales) is covered by synthetic unit tests
only — no public checkpoint was needed after the Nemotron layout
parsed cleanly.
