All rights reserved. +# +# See LICENSE for license information. + +"""Multi-process (one-GPU-per-process) tests for the TE-EP MoE custom_vjp. + +The launcher ``tests/jax/run_te_ep_moe.sh`` forks one pytest process per +visible GPU (mirroring ``run_multiprocess_moe_vjp.sh``). Each process binds +to exactly one device via +``jax.distributed.initialize(..., local_device_ids=process_id)``; the +participating processes form a global ``(ep, fsdp)`` mesh through JAX's +distributed runtime. + +How to run +---------- + +You typically do NOT invoke pytest on this file directly -- use the +launcher, which passes ``--num-process=N --process-id=i`` to each +forked process. Driving it directly with only one process will skip +every test because :func:`jax.distributed.initialize` requires +multiple participants, and the TE EP NCCL primitives require at +least four ranks. + + bash tests/jax/run_te_ep_moe.sh + +What this suite covers +---------------------- + +This file is the TE-EP-only successor to ``test_moe_vjp.py`` and +``test_multiprocess_moe_vjp.py``. Each test exercises one MoE-block +run and bundles every check that single run supports — shape, dtype, +finiteness AND numerical parity vs a pure-JAX reference. Variations +on the block are pytest parametrize values rather than separate test +classes: + +* ``test_forward`` covers the forward across a curated set of + configurations (apply_topk_weights_early on/off, softmax/sigmoid + scoring, optional expert_bias). Each config asserts shape, dtype, + finiteness and numerical parity vs the reference in one run. +* ``test_backward`` mirrors that for gradients. +* ``TestTeEpMoeAuxLoss`` covers the second return value end-to-end + (returned + parity + aux-only grad propagates to gate + combined + main+aux grads stay finite) in two consolidated tests. +* ``TestTeEpMoEBlockFlax`` exercises the Flax wrapper with the same + parity reference. +* ``TestZZZTeEpMoeBootstrap`` verifies the per-process NCCL bootstrap + rejects a mismatched signature. + +FP8 / MXFP8 recipes are deferred — the ``quantizer_sets`` plumbing +has not yet been re-wired across the TE-EP ``shard_map`` boundary +(see ``.pr3036-review/INTEGRATION_DESIGN.md``). +""" + +import os + +os.environ.setdefault("XLA_PYTHON_CLIENT_PREALLOCATE", "false") +os.environ.setdefault("XLA_PYTHON_CLIENT_MEM_FRACTION", "0.5") + +import sys +from functools import partial + +import jax +import jax.numpy as jnp +import numpy as np +import pytest + +from jax.experimental import mesh_utils +from jax.sharding import Mesh, NamedSharding, PartitionSpec as P +from flax.linen import partitioning as nn_partitioning + + +def _init_distributed(num_process: int, process_id: int) -> bool: + """Initialize jax.distributed for this pytest process. + + Returns True on a real multi-process launch, False otherwise so + the module can fast-skip when pytest collects it without the + launcher. + """ + if num_process <= 1: + return False + coord = os.environ.get("TE_EP_MOE_COORDINATOR_ADDRESS", "127.0.0.1:13457") + jax.distributed.initialize( + coordinator_address=coord, + num_processes=num_process, + process_id=process_id, + local_device_ids=process_id, + ) + assert jax.local_device_count() == 1, "one GPU per process is required for TE EP" + assert ( + jax.device_count() == num_process + ), f"global device_count {jax.device_count()} != num_process {num_process}" + return True + + +def _read_mp_options(): + num = int(os.environ.get("MP_NUM_PROCESS", "0") or "0") + pid = int(os.environ.get("MP_PROCESS_ID", "0") or "0") + for i, a in enumerate(sys.argv): + if a.startswith("--num-process="): + num = int(a.split("=", 1)[1]) + elif a == "--num-process" and i + 1 < len(sys.argv): + num = int(sys.argv[i + 1]) + elif a.startswith("--process-id="): + pid = int(a.split("=", 1)[1]) + elif a == "--process-id" and i + 1 < len(sys.argv): + pid = int(sys.argv[i + 1]) + return num, pid + + +_MP_NUM_PROCESS, _MP_PROCESS_ID = _read_mp_options() +_MP_ACTIVE = _init_distributed(_MP_NUM_PROCESS, _MP_PROCESS_ID) + +if not _MP_ACTIVE: + pytest.skip( + "test_te_ep_moe.py requires the multiprocess launcher " + "(run_te_ep_moe.sh).

It is the moral analog of -:func:`transformer_engine.jax.layernorm_mlp.layernorm_mlp` for MoE: one -custom_vjp boundary covers the whole block so future fusions (FP8 over the -EP wire, fused ``ragged_all_to_all + grouped_gemm``, gate+route+dispatch -fusion) can land without re-architecting the call site. - -Design rationale ----------------- - -The earlier MoE block (:class:`transformer_engine.jax.flax.moe._MoEBlock`) -composed many narrower custom_vjps -- one per :func:`grouped_dense`, one -per :func:`token_dispatch`, etc. Every nested custom_vjp is a place where -a quantized :class:`ScaledTensor` cannot survive (JAX requires custom_vjp -inputs / outputs to be plain ``jnp.ndarray`` ish pytrees). To enable -end-to-end FP8 flow -- in particular FP8 carried over the EP -ragged_all_to_all -- the dispatch's quantize, the a2a, the per-expert -FFN, the inverse a2a, and the combine all have to live inside the same -VJP. This file collapses them into one. - -Implementation conventions --------------------------- - -* No nested ``custom_vjp``. Every primitive's ``_fwd`` and ``_bwd`` is - called directly (e.g. :func:`tex.fused_topk_with_score_function_fwd` / - ``_bwd``, :func:`unpermute_with_mask_map`, - :func:`unpermute_bwd_with_merging_probs`, - :func:`sort_chunks_by_map(is_forward=False)`, - forward + reverse :func:`jax.lax.ragged_all_to_all`) so the outer - ``_moe_bwd_rule`` controls the bwd graph end-to-end without invoking - ``jax.vjp`` for re-linearization. -* The fwd/bwd context (``ctx``) is a plain ``dict`` whose keys depend on - the static configuration (permutation backend, EP active or not, - presence of biases, aux loss enabled). The ``_moe_fwd_rule`` builds a - matching ``ctx_specs`` dict in lockstep when opening the EP shard_map - so ``out_specs`` structurally matches the body's return. -* :func:`_dispatch` is the helper that wraps - ``permute -> a2a -> local_permute`` (forward); :func:`_combine` is its - inverse. Their ``_bwd`` siblings drive the inverse collectives in the - bwd rule. None of these helpers form a custom_vjp boundary. +"""Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) layer for TransformerEngine JAX. + +This module exposes :func:`moe`, a single fused MoE forward pass + bwd +built on top of TE's NCCL-backed Expert Parallelism primitives +(``tex.ep_dispatch`` / ``tex.ep_combine``).

FusedMoEAuxLossBwdPrimitive.shardy_sharding_rule: ``grad_aux_loss`` is the cotangent of a scalar loss and is rank-0; declaring it with a spurious ``grad_one`` factor gave it rank-1 and tripped JAX's custom_partitioning_sharding_rule rank check at global view. Change the rule's third operand entry to empty: "const_buf_one, num_experts, grad_one -> i num_experts" -> "const_buf_one, num_experts, -> i num_experts" 2. FusedTopkWithScoreFunctionBwdPrimitive.partition: ``del result_infos, routing_map_format`` removed ``routing_map_format`` from the enclosing scope before the nested ``sharded_impl`` closure was invoked. Python closures resolve names at call time, not definition time, so when XLA finally invoked ``sharded_impl`` for the bwd partitioned impl it raised ``NameError: cannot access free variable 'routing_map_format'``. Drop ``routing_map_format`` from the ``del`` and leave a NOTE so future cleanups don't reintroduce the bug. Sibling partition methods (fwd topk, both aux-loss directions) already only ``del result_infos`` and need no change.

(1) Plumb per-expert padded token_counts into grouped_gemm group_sizes. NCCL EP HT dispatch lays out recv_tokens expert-major as [expert_0_padded | expert_1_padded | ... | overalloc_tail] where each per-expert block already includes the dispatch_output_per_expert_alignment zero-padding and only the trailing overalloc tail (slack between sum(token_counts) and the worst-case recv_pr) is unused. Previously _ffn_fwd_per_shard built a static local_group_sizes = jnp.full((num_local_experts,), slots_per_expert), which over-counted by the overalloc tail and forced cuBLAS to run the GEMM for every group including 0-token-routed experts. Pipe the real per-shard token_counts (1, num_local_experts) from ep_prepare through _moe_fwd_rule (added to ffn_in_specs/ffn_in_args with ep2_spec), into _ffn_fwd_per_shard as token_counts_local, and reshape into local_group_sizes for both grouped_quantize and grouped_gemm. cuBLAS now skips both 0-token experts and the trailing overalloc tail. Mirror the residual spec change on the bwd (local_group_sizes residual moves from P() to ep2_spec). (2) Per-group jnp.where zero-fill on wgrad outputs. cuBLAS grouped_gemm skips groups with size_g == 0 without zero-filling the corresponding out[g, :, :] slice (cublaslt_grouped_gemm.cu lines 2086/2096). For a shard hosting an expert that received zero tokens globally, d_wo / d_wi_combined for that expert is left uninit, which propagates NaN straight into the user's optimizer state. Add wgrad_group_active = (local_group_sizes > 0)[:, None, None] in _ffn_bwd_per_shard and apply via jnp.where on d_wo (right after the wo wgrad) and d_wi_combined (right after the fused wi_0+wi_1 wgrad). Mask shape is (num_local_experts, 1, 1) so cost is negligible. (3) Drop the lax.cond zero-init guard on r_tok in _moe_fwd_rule._body. Previously a jax.lax.cond(jnp.any(r_w != 0), identity, zeros_like) wrapper around recv_tokens worked around tex.ep_dispatch_fwd leaving the recv buffer uninit on fully-empty-receiver ranks. With (1) in place, cuBLAS skips experts whose group_sizes == 0 and the per-row trailing tail of dispatched recv_tokens is unread by every downstream consumer (subsequent grouped_gemms read only sum(group_sizes) rows; ep_combine and ep_dispatch_bwd are handle_mem-aware). The only per-row consumer that would propagate the tail is grouped_dbias (per-row segment_sum), which only runs when has_bias=True, and that FFN bias path is currently gated upstream (cuBLAS grouped_gemm has no fused bias on Hopper yet; PR 3083 adds the pure-JAX bias add). With (2) handling the user-visible wgrad-NaN risk on 0-token experts, the lax.cond is now redundant. Replace with a NOTE pointing at the two follow-ups that would force its reintroduction: - a future caller that reads the full recv tile non-group-aware (e.g. an inspect probe), or - the FFN bias path landing, which would resurrect grouped_dbias. Also rewrite the _ffn_fwd_per_shard and _ffn_bwd_per_shard docstrings to spell out the per-row vs per-group uninit semantics so the next person debugging a NaN here has the invariants written down.

All changes are confined to a single file because each review thread targets a localized region and splitting mid-file would risk reordering bugs. Per review thread: 1. "Why do we need _with_sharding_constraint_cast_bwd? I haven't seen something like this required for our other VJPs." -- Expand the helper's docstring to spell out exactly why MoE needs it: unlike LN+MLP, the MoE bwd composes a bf16 cotangent from ep_dispatch_bwd with an fp32 cotangent from fused_topk_with_score_function_bwd (which the fwd's logits_2d -> fp32 promotion forces). Without the cast, ``d_x`` surfaces at fp32 even when ``x`` is bf16, doubling activation grad bandwidth and breaking any downstream LN bwd that pins a bf16 layout. (Review thread "Why do we need this utility function?".) 2. "Why is this dtype casting required? I don't recall us needing it for the non-MoE LNMLP block." -- Expand the comment above the bwd activation fp32 promotion to explain the MoE-specific math: LN+MLP's silu sits behind a downstream LN that absorbs the bf16 rounding error, while MoE's silu sits on the *expert* side of routing -- the bf16 rounding rides directly into expert_outputs and is summed across topk experts by ep_combine. Bf16 silu alone drifts ~1% vs fp32 silu and compounds through wo->combine into the ~1.4% per-element parity gap we measured against the pure-JAX softmax reference. Mirroring the fwd's fp32 promotion in the bwd keeps silu' in lock-step with silu. (Review thread on "# Activation bwd. Mirror the fwd's fp32 promotion of silu+multiply".) 3. "Do we have a use-case for user-specified alignments beyond 128 currently? ... it'd make sense to instead hardcode _ALIGN_SIZE = 128 as a constant at the top of the file for now to simplify this MoEBlock API. We can always expand the API to support a user-specified align size in the future." -- Implement the suggestion. Drop ``align_size`` from ``_moe_fwd_rule`` / ``_moe_bwd_rule`` / ``_moe`` / public ``moe()``; shift the ``custom_vjp`` ``nondiff_argnums`` from ``range(9, 27)`` -> ``range(9, 26)``; replace ``effective_align = max(int(align_size), 128)`` with the new module-level ``_ALIGN_SIZE = 128`` constant. Trim the ``moe()`` docstring accordingly. (Review thread on "natural_spe = num_ep * max_tokens_per_rank".) 4. "Which axis name inputs are physical mesh axes and why can be logical axes? ... No need to make any changes for now, I just want to assess which are which and then we can discuss if it makes sense to support logical on some/all or if some are required to be physical axes." -- Add an "Axis-name parameters" section to ``moe()``'s docstring listing which kwargs are physical mesh axes (``ep_axis``, ``data_parallelism_axes`` -- they index ``Mesh.shape`` directly to compute ``num_ep`` / ``dp_size`` and to construct the ``P((dp..., ep), None, None)`` for ``jax.lax.with_sharding_constraint``) vs logical axes (``input_axes``, ``gate_kernel_axes``, ``wi_kernel_axes``, ``wo_kernel_axes`` -- resolved via the Flax logical-axis rules). Also document why ``ep_axis`` / ``data_parallelism_axes`` are intentionally non-logical: the EP comm-group construction (``dp_color = rank // ep_size``) and the bootstrap signature check both require concrete integer sizes. (Review thread on "batch_pspec_axis = (*data_parallelism_axes, ep_axis)".) 5. "Is this NaN filtering a debugging artifact or something we need in the final version?" -- Strengthen the inline comment above ``sparse_probs = jnp.where(jnp.isnan(sparse_probs), 0, ...)`` to explicitly call this out as a CORRECTNESS REQUIREMENT, not a debugging artifact: it covers the sigmoid+K>1 underflow path where top-K sigmoid scores all round to zero and the ``weights / (weights.sum + 1e-20)`` normalisation emits NaN. Observationally the filter is a no-op on the dense unit-test distributions, but it must stay in for sparse / production routing. (Review thread on "sparse_probs = jnp.where(jnp.isnan(sparse_probs), ...).") Not addressed in this commit (intentional): * Review thread on the ``align_size: int = 0`` placeholder in ``flax/moe.py`` ("Placeholder comment for me to fix this so align_size is inferred automatically based on the recipe and doesn't need to be specified by the user"). That's jberchtold's own follow-up. * Review thread on the explicit ``tree_flatten`` / ``tree_unflatten`` on ``_Ctx`` ("better to use the ``@flax_struct.dataclass``"). Deferred to a separate, testable commit because changing a ``custom_vjp`` residual's pytree registration touches subtle ordering / None-handling semantics that warrant their own bisect surface. * Review thread on ``use_bias`` / ``use_expert_bias`` renames -- handled in the immediately preceding commit ``jax/flax,tests: rename use_bias/use_expert_bias for symmetry``. * Review thread on the ``expert_bias`` fp32 init -- already resolved during the Phuong PR #3036 resync (the redundant ``jnp.float32`` second-dtype argument on ``self.param`` was dropped; ``expert_bias`` now lives at ``self.dtype``).

The fp32 ``d_logits_2d`` - then composes with ``gate_kernel.T`` and adds into the bf16 - ``d_x_from_dispatch``, yielding an fp32 sum even though the user's - ``x`` is bf16. Without this cast, the user-visible ``d_x`` flows - back into the optimizer at fp32 -- silently doubling the activation - grad bandwidth and tripping any downstream kernel that pins a bf16 - input layout (e.g. an LN bwd that fuses into our ``d_x``). + """Sharding constraint that keeps bwd cotangents in the primal dtype. + + Plain ``jax.lax.with_sharding_constraint`` is identity on the fwd + but does not constrain the dtype of the cotangent that flows back + through it.

The promotion bought nothing: the activation inputs come out of the wi grouped_gemm in bf16, the activation output is consumed by the wo GEMM (or wo's quantizer for FP8/FP4) in the same dtype, and storing higher precision than either consumer is wasted bandwidth. * _ffn_fwd_per_shard: drop the .astype(jnp.float32) on gate_proj_out and up_proj_out and the trailing .astype(sorted_x.dtype). The multiply now stays in the wi GEMM output dtype end-to-end. * _ffn_bwd_per_shard: symmetric simplification. jax.vjp(act_fn, ...) runs at bf16, both d_intermediate * silu' and d_intermediate * up stay at bf16, no casts. silu' is now consistent with silu (both bf16) so the chain rule composes cleanly without the prior fp32 detour. * tests/jax/test_te_ep_moe.py::_pure_jax_moe_reference: drop the matching fp32 silu in the parity reference so the test compares bf16-vs-bf16. Parity tolerance was not loosened; expect the comparison to tighten now that both sides round silu identically. Also fix an inaccurate inline comment at the apply_topk_weights_early fwd branch: the bf16 requirement on expert_outputs is enforced by ep_bootstrap (which rejects max_token_dtype != bf16 and sizes the NCCL EP HT mega-buffer for 2-byte slots accordingly), not by a runtime assert in the combine FFI.
