Five runs of the changelist now reproduce the same single failure with breaks genuinely
tolerated (patch 01+02+03+04, VLLM_COMPILE_FULLGRAPH=0, VLLM_USE_AOT_COMPILE=0,
R4D_GLM_FUSE_QKV_RMSNORM=0): the trunk TRACES ('Dynamo bytecode transform time: 1.08 s')
and the boot dies on KeyError: 'in_proj_qkvbfg_a'.
What it is NOT, each ruled out by measurement rather than argument:
- not one of dynamo's four nn_modules lookups: /home/dank/dynamo-probe wraps three of
them and stayed silent over two runs, with the probe's install line confirmed in both
the API-server and worker processes;
- not a dynamo-internal failure: TORCHDYNAMO_VERBOSE=1 adds no internal stack trace;
- not a literal string lookup: the name appears tree-wide only as the KDA layer's
attribute (kda.py:217, used at :407) and in the load_weights shard table
(model.py:780-785); the four sites in the
quantization utils do compute exactly this bare key but every one is guarded
(), so none can raise it;
- not the pluggable-layer registry, which is keyed by class name.
What it IS: a plain Python KeyError raised inside the traced
Glm5NextDecoderLayer.forward, in a callee dynamo INLINED (frame chain
profile_run -> _dummy_run -> execute_model -> glm4_1v.py:2358 -> the compile wrapper ->
eval_frame.compile_wrapper -> Glm5NextModel.forward:748 -> module._call_impl ->
Glm5NextDecoderLayer.forward:456; the reported line is that method's def line, which is
how inlined frames surface).
Patch 03's header and the runbook now record the remaining instrument (TORCH_LOGS=+dynamo
and grep, or wrap the inlining candidates — the mHC CustomOps and the indexer op — with a
KeyError probe), and the two breaks that are real but non-fatal in this configuration
(patch 04's fused-norm launcher cell, patch 05's workspace acquisition).
tests/run.sh: 362 seams pass.
