From df0401491a7cdae72c598ffdafde20f54782b3ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: HappyDog0713 Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2026 08:59:20 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix(lingbot-vla): align service validation and replay gates Restore strict validation for the standalone generic VLA server while retaining the explicit skip-validation development override. Apply the same numerical replay thresholds to BF16 and quantized release profiles, keeping exact equality as diagnostic metadata. Update tests and documentation for the validated H100 profiles and service behavior. Verification: 170 relevant tests passed; ruff and diff checks passed; strict pipeline validation passed; BF16 WebSocket-to-MuJoCo smoke completed; five in-scope release profiles passed with AIPerf. --- examples/lingbot_vla_v2/README.md | 24 ++++++++++--------- .../pipelines/lingbot_vla_v2/test_examples.py | 4 ++++ .../test_lingbot_vla_v2_release_suite.py | 7 +++--- .../run_lingbot_vla_v2_release_suite.py | 6 +---- 4 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) diff --git a/examples/lingbot_vla_v2/README.md b/examples/lingbot_vla_v2/README.md index 76c10cf..64a497b 100644 --- a/examples/lingbot_vla_v2/README.md +++ b/examples/lingbot_vla_v2/README.md @@ -140,9 +140,9 @@ does not modify checkpoint files. | CLI value | Backend | Scope | Validation status | | --- | --- | --- | --- | -| `fused-fp8-graph` | Native scaled GEMM and Triton | Repeated denoising Linear and routed-MoE weights | H100 functional/AIPerf validated; release gate failed exact HTTP replay | -| `torchao-fp8` | TorchAO | 492 selected Qwen/action-expert Linear layers | H100 functional/AIPerf validated; release gate failed exact HTTP replay | -| `bnb-nf4` | bitsandbytes | Same 492 Linear-layer manifest, NF4 weights and BF16 compute | H100 functional/AIPerf validated; release gate failed exact HTTP replay | +| `fused-fp8-graph` | Native scaled GEMM and Triton | Repeated denoising Linear and routed-MoE weights | H100 release validated with numerical thresholds and AIPerf | +| `torchao-fp8` | TorchAO | 492 selected Qwen/action-expert Linear layers | H100 release validated with numerical thresholds and AIPerf | +| `bnb-nf4` | bitsandbytes | Same 492 Linear-layer manifest, NF4 weights and BF16 compute | H100 release validated with numerical thresholds and AIPerf | | `tf-kernel-fp8` | TeleFuser tf-kernel | Per-token activation and per-output-channel weight FP8 | Code/unit tested; hardware unverified | Use the direct example with one of the following variants: @@ -160,9 +160,10 @@ Use the direct example with one of the following variants: The tf-kernel path requires an SM90 wheel built for the exact PyTorch/CUDA ABI.
