What does this PR do?

Type of change: Bug fix

Split the monolithic private ONNX Runtime patching module into focused owners for session setup, ordinary calibration, per-node calibration, static Q/DQ quantization, and patch composition.

This updates all in-tree callers, removes the legacy catch-all module without a compatibility facade, and preserves existing function signatures, patch targets, provider configuration, numerical behavior, and cleanup behavior. It also activates the characterization check for removal of the legacy module and ensures patch-composition tests restore modified ONNX Runtime attributes.

ort_session.py owns model loading plus the ORT CalibraterBase inference-session/provider patch path. ort_utils.py remains the broader ModelOpt runtime utility used outside calibration and delegates shared provider configuration to that focused private owner. Calibration-specific tensor selection and calibrater initialization live in ort_calibration.py.

The four modules containing adapted ORT code retain the Microsoft MIT notice, combined NVIDIA/ORT SPDX header, and only the pinned upstream source links relevant to each module. The NVIDIA-authored ort_patches.py composition module uses the standard Apache-2.0 header and is checked by the repository license hook. Maintainer license sign-off remains requested on the four adapted-code headers.

The corresponding tests now mirror their primary production modules as test_ort_calibration.py and test_ort_quantization.py; CONTRIBUTING.md records that naming requirement for subsequent work.

Usage

Direct imports from the removed private module must migrate to the corresponding capability module. For example:

# Before
from modelopt.onnx.quantization.ort_patching import patch_ort_modules

# After
from modelopt.onnx.quantization.ort_patches import patch_ort_modules

Testing

  • Ran the pre-commit hooks for all changed files.
  • Ran the ONNX quantization unit suite: 378 passed, 12 expected xfails.
  • Ran the focused calibration, characterization, and ORT capability tests: 42 passed, 12 expected xfails.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The ONNX Runtime quantization implementation is split into dedicated session, calibration, per-node calibration, quantization, and patch modules. Imports, tests, documentation, and license configuration now reference the new module layout. The former ort_patching module is removed.

Changes

ONNX Runtime quantization split

Layer / File(s) Summary
Session and static quantization
modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_session.py, modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_quantization.py, modelopt/onnx/quantization/fp8.py, modelopt/onnx/quantization/int8.py
Model loading, provider setup, calibration creation, range correction, and static Q/DQ quantization are implemented in dedicated modules. FP8 and INT8 callers import quantization from ort_quantization.
Batch calibration
modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_calibration.py
Standard calibration selects tensors, collects batch outputs, computes MinMax ranges, and accumulates histogram statistics.
Per-node calibration
modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_calibration_per_node.py
Per-node calibration generates single-node models, runs dependency-ordered inference, and supports MinMax and histogram collection.
Patch composition and migration
modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_patches.py, modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_patching.py, modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_utils.py, tests/**, CHANGELOG.rst, .pre-commit-config.yaml, CONTRIBUTING.md
Patch selection uses the new capability modules. The former ort_patching module is deleted. Imports, tests, license exclusions, and documentation are updated.

Nudge: the move itself looks behavior-preserving, but the new module boundaries aren't justified and deleting the public ort_patching module ships with no CHANGELOG entry.

Needs action:

  • Explain in the PR body why session setup went into a new ort_session.py instead of the existing ort_utils.py, which already owns create_inference_session / _prepare_ep_list and is the other caller of _configure_session_providers.
  • Add a Backward Breaking Changes CHANGELOG entry for removing modelopt.onnx.quantization.ort_patching (mirroring the graph_utils entry in 0.48.0) and revisit the "backward compatible ✅" checkbox — there is no shim.
  • Get human sign-off on the ORT MIT headers and SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0 AND MIT carried into the five new files.
  • Move _select_tensors_to_calibrate / _init_calibrater_base out of ort_session.py, or rename it — they are calibrator setup, not session setup.
  • Drop test_ort_patching_catch_all_is_removed; it duplicates the ort-patching-module param in test_calibrated_quantization.py.

No action needed:

  • Every function from the deleted module is present unchanged, and promoting the ort-patching-module param from xfail to a real assertion is justified by this PR removing that module.

Addressed the review feedback in 73ca7f640 and cd9229a86:

  • Documented why calibration-session patching lives in ort_session.py while the broader runtime utility remains in ort_utils.py.
  • Moved _select_tensors_to_calibrate and _init_calibrater_base to ort_calibration.py; their function ASTs/signatures are unchanged.
  • Added a Backward Breaking Changes entry and corrected the PR compatibility/changelog checklist, including a direct-import migration example.
  • Removed the duplicate legacy-module-removal test; the existing parameterized characterization coverage remains.
  • Kept the Microsoft MIT notice and combined SPDX header only on the four modules containing adapted ORT code, with precise pinned source links per module. ort_patches.py now uses the standard Apache-2.0 header and license hook.
  • Renamed the test modules to test_ort_calibration.py and test_ort_quantization.py, and recorded the production-module naming rule in CONTRIBUTING.md.
  • Kept the shared histogram helpers in ort_calibration.py; the rationale is recorded in the corresponding review thread but is not a repository-wide ownership rule.

Validation after the changes:

  • Pre-commit hooks: passed.
  • Focused calibration/characterization/ORT capability tests: 42 passed, 12 expected xfails.
  • Full ONNX quantization unit suite: 378 passed, 12 expected xfails.
  • Standards review: 0 findings.
  • Spec review: 0 findings.

Bot review (claude-opus-5) — DM the bot to share feedback.

All five prior comments are addressed and the split remains behaviour-preserving, so this is ready to merge once a human signs off on the carried-forward ORT MIT headers.

Needs action:

  • Get maintainer sign-off on the ORT MIT notice and SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0 AND MIT now present in the five new ort_*.py files (unchanged carry-forward from the deleted module, but a bot cannot approve licensing) — and on the PR size (+2196/-1884).

No action needed:

  • ✔️ Resolved since the last review: the ort_session.py vs ort_utils.py rationale is now in the PR body, the Backward Breaking Changes CHANGELOG entry with the per-module migration map is added, _select_tensors_to_calibrate/_init_calibrater_base moved to ort_calibration.py (with the test patch target updated), and the duplicate test_ort_patching_catch_all_is_removed is dropped.
  • The test_calibrated_quantization.py edit is justified: the blanket xfail became per-param so the ort-patching-module case is a real assertion, which this PR's module removal makes true; other params keep their xfail. New test_patch_composition_uses_capability_owners restores patched ORT attributes via monkeypatch.
  • No stale ort_patching imports remain in-tree.

[SUGGESTION] This file carries the Microsoft MIT notice, the three "Adapted from" ORT source URLs, and SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0 AND MIT — but it contains no ORT-derived code. Everything here is imports plus patch_ort_modules, which is NVIDIA-authored (it has no upstream counterpart in quant_utils.py / calibrate.py / onnx_quantizer.py).

Why it matters: you're explicitly asking maintainers to sign off on the header carry-forward, and this is the one file where the carry-forward is inaccurate in both directions — it attributes copyright to Microsoft for code they didn't write, and it dual-licenses a pure-Apache file. It also keeps the file out of the insert-license pre-commit hook (.pre-commit-config.yaml:110), so the repo's standard Apache header check will never run on it.

Suggested fix: give ort_patches.py the plain Apache-2.0 header (drop the MIT block, the "Adapted from" URLs, and the AND MIT identifier) and remove its entry from the insert-license exclude list so the hook maintains it. That narrows the sign-off request to the four files that genuinely do contain adapted ORT code.

While you're there, the URL lists in the other four files are also over-broad now that the code is split — e.g. ort_calibration.py and ort_calibration_per_node.py derive only from calibrate.py, not quant_utils.py/onnx_quantizer.py. Trimming each header to the upstream file(s) its own functions came from makes the attribution reviewable per module, which is the main benefit of the split.

Addressed in cd9229a. ort_patches.py now has the standard NVIDIA Apache-2.0 header and is no longer excluded from the insert-license hook. The four adapted-code modules now list only their relevant pinned ORT sources, with the previously missing quantize.py source added for ort_quantization.py. The license hook passes with this layout.

[SUGGESTION] This is the only edge that breaks the otherwise clean capability layering: the per-node module depends on the ordinary-calibration module purely for one shared histogram helper.

Why it matters: _prepare_histogram_data / _restore_histogram_calibration_dtypes are a matched pair implementing the fp16→fp32 histogram-math workaround, and they are shared three ways — ort_calibration._collect_value, ort_calibration_per_node._collect_value_histogram_collector_single_node_calibration (line 588), and ort_quantization._quantize_static (line 363, which imports the restore half from ort_calibration for the same reason). So the "ordinary calibration" module is now the de-facto owner of a helper that all three capabilities need, which means importing the per-node path also drags in pynvml and tqdm via ort_calibration.

Suggestion: move the _prepare_histogram_data / _restore_histogram_calibration_dtypes pair to a neutral owner (a small ort_histogram.py, or alongside the other dtype/session-neutral helpers in ort_session.py) and have all three capability modules import from there. That keeps the sibling capability modules independent of each other, which is the property that makes the split worth the churn.

Thanks. I checked this against ticket 2 and the current dependency graph, and I am keeping the helper pair in ort_calibration for this PR. Both helpers operate on calibration state; the per-node and static-Q/DQ imports are acyclic and do not depend on orchestration or a catch-all surface. Extracting a two-function ort_histogram module would add a neutral middleman without changing behavior or clarifying ownership.

Claude review passed — no blocking issues found. LGTM

Findings: CRITICAL: 0 · IMPORTANT: 0 · SUGGESTION: 3

Scope reviewed

Full review (14 files). Read all five new modelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_*.py modules, the three modified callers (fp8.py, int8.py, ort_utils.py), the three touched test files, CHANGELOG.rst, and the insert-license exclude block in .pre-commit-config.yaml.

Behavior preservation — verified mechanically, not just by eye

The main risk in a 1845-line split with 8% patch coverage on the largest slice is a hunk silently reindenting or dropping during the move. I checked this with copy-detection rather than trusting the line counts:

git diff origin/main HEAD -C20% --find-copies-harder --numstat
  ort_patching.py => ort_calibration.py            +82  -1419
  ort_patching.py => ort_calibration_per_node.py    +4   -943
  ort_patching.py => ort_quantization.py            +7   -1454

ort_calibration_per_node.py (the file with 8% coverage, so the one where a silent change would go undetected) adds exactly 4 lines over the copy: module docstring, __all__, blank, and the _prepare_histogram_data import. Same story for ort_quantization.py (+7). The +82 on ort_calibration.py is a reordering artifact, not new code — _select_tensors_to_calibrate and _init_calibrater_base sat at the end of the old module (just above patch_ort_modules) and were moved to the top of the new one, so the diff re-renders both bodies as additions; their combined length accounts for the delta.

ort_session.py and ort_patches.py fell outside copy detection, so I diffed them against the old blob directly. ort_session.py adds only three non-comment lines (docstring, __all__, the add_infer_metadata import). ort_patches.patch_ort_modules is byte-identical to the removed one, including the asymmetry where the per-node branch patches HistogramCollector.collect but not collect_absolute_value — carried forward unchanged, as intended for a refactor.

Other things confirmed

  • Patch reachability survives the split. _quantize_static still reaches create_calibrator through the module attribute (calibrate.create_calibrator, ort_quantization.py:342), not a from ... import create_calibrator binding, so patch_ort_modules' rebinding of calibrate.create_calibrator is still observed. Same for qdq_quantizer.compute_scale_zp. Class-attribute patches (MinMaxCalibrater, CalibraterBase, QDQQuantizer, BaseQuantizer) are unaffected by which module holds the replacement function.
  • No import cycles. ort_utils → {ort_patches, ort_session}, ort_patches → {ort_calibration, ort_calibration_per_node, ort_quantization, ort_session}, ort_calibration → ort_session, ort_quantization → {ort_calibration, ort_session}. Nothing in the new set imports ort_utils, so the ort_utils/ort_session split of _configure_session_providers is acyclic.
  • No dangling references. ort_patching appears nowhere in the tree except the new CHANGELOG entry, the historical 0.4x CHANGELOG note (correct to leave — it describes a shipped release), and the characterization test that now asserts its absence. Every symbol the three test files import exists in its new home, including the eight ORT names test_patch_composition_uses_capability_owners reaches via ort_patches.*.
  • Prior review feedback is addressed. _select_tensors_to_calibrate / _init_calibrater_base moved to ort_calibration.py with bodies unchanged; the Backward Breaking Changes entry is present and scoped to one sentence per the CONTRIBUTING guidance; the duplicate removal test is gone with the parameterized coverage promoted from xfail to a live assertion; the ort_session.py vs ort_utils.py rationale is documented in the _configure_session_providers docstring.
  • The new patch-composition test does correctly restore the ORT attributes it touches (monkeypatch pre-seeding), which fixes real cross-test pollution from the old version.

Suggestions (non-blocking)

  1. ort_patches.py carries the Microsoft MIT notice, the "Adapted from" URLs, and SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0 AND MIT despite containing no ORT-derived code — patch_ort_modules is NVIDIA-authored. This is worth resolving before the license sign-off you requested, since it's the one file where the carry-forward is inaccurate, and it also excludes the file from the insert-license hook. Inline comment has details, plus a note on trimming the over-broad URL lists in the other four headers.
  2. ort_calibration_per_node.py imports _prepare_histogram_data from ort_calibration, making the per-node capability depend on the ordinary one for a helper that all three capabilities share. A neutral owner would keep the sibling modules independent — which is the property that justifies the split.
  3. The test files are still named test_ort_patching.py / test_ort_patching_histogram.py after a module that no longer exists (the docstring in the former was updated to "ONNX Runtime quantization capabilities", but the filename wasn't). Renaming to match the capability modules would finish the refactor; worth folding into this PR while the mapping is fresh.

Risk assessment

Low. This is a mechanically verified pure move — no numerical, patch-composition, or session-configuration behavior changes, and the one intentional behavior change (the characterization test going from xfail to a live assertion) is the direct consequence of this PR removing the module. The breaking change is a private-module import path, correctly documented in CHANGELOG.rst under Backward Breaking Changes with a migration map, matching the graph_utils precedent. The codecov drop is an artifact of previously-uncovered code moving into new files, not of new untested logic. Remaining items are attribution hygiene and layering polish.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Use ONNXQuantizer for QuantFormat.QOperator.

Line 369 passes the ONNXQuantizer argument layout to QDQQuantizer. QDQQuantizer does not accept the added mode and static arguments. A QOperator request therefore raises TypeError before quantization.

ONNX Runtime 1.24.2 uses ONNXQuantizer in this branch. (github.com)

[SUGGESTION] The test-naming rule this PR adds to CONTRIBUTING.md isn't satisfied by the two files this PR renames.

The new rule says: "Test filenames must mirror the production module they primarily cover… A cross-module integration test may use a feature-oriented name only when no single production module owns the behavior."

Both renamed files are cross-module, but got module names rather than feature-oriented ones:

  • This file (test_ort_calibration.py) imports from all four capability modules and its own docstring says "the ONNX Runtime quantization capabilities" (plural) — i.e. it self-describes as cross-module. Its 12 classes split roughly: TestModelLoading / TestInferenceSessionort_session; TestQuantizerFunctions / TestCalibratorCreation / TestStaticQuantizationort_quantization; TestSingleNodeCalibrationort_calibration_per_node; the rest → ort_calibration. Naming it after ort_calibration claims an ownership the content doesn't have.
  • tests/unit/onnx/quantization/test_ort_quantization.py is if anything mis-attributed the other way: only 2 of its 5 tests target ort_quantization (_compute_scale_zp, _quantize_static); two target ort_calibration (_collect_value, _prepare_histogram_data / _restore_histogram_calibration_dtypes) and one targets ort_patches (patch_ort_modules). Its module docstring also still reads "Tests for ONNX Runtime histogram quantization patches", which describes the pre-split scope.

Why it matters: a convention introduced and immediately contradicted in the same change is the version future contributors will cite, and the point of the rule — being able to find a module's tests from its filename — is lost when a name points at the wrong owner. It also leaves the next person unsure whether the escape hatch or the mirroring rule governs a file like this.

Either option resolves it: split each file along the capability boundaries so the filenames are accurate, or keep them intact and use the feature-oriented names the rule's escape hatch already permits (e.g. test_ort_quantization_capabilities.py) with docstrings updated to match. The second is cheap and needs no test moves. Whichever you pick, the unit file's docstring should be refreshed off "histogram quantization patches".

Claude review passed — no blocking issues found. LGTM

Findings: CRITICAL: 0 · IMPORTANT: 0 · SUGGESTION: 2

Scope reviewed

Full review (15 files) — this is a re-review of cd9229a8 ("Address ONNX patching review follow-ups") on top of the previously-approved state. Read all five new ort_*.py modules, the three modified callers (fp8.py, int8.py, ort_utils.py), all three touched test files, CHANGELOG.rst, CONTRIBUTING.md, and the insert-license exclude block.

Move fidelity re-verified after the follow-up commit

The one risk that matters in a 1845-line split is a hunk mutating during the move, so I re-checked it mechanically rather than by eye — the follow-up commit rewrote headers and renamed tests, both of which could have perturbed the bodies.

Function-set equality. The set of 27 top-level defs in origin/main:ort_patching.py and the union across the five new modules are byte-identical when sorted — nothing dropped, nothing invented.

Per-module blob diffs (git diff origin/main:ort_patching.py HEAD:<new>, added lines only):

module added lines
ort_session.py docstring, __all__, add_infer_metadata import
ort_calibration_per_node.py header URL trim, docstring, __all__, _prepare_histogram_data import
ort_quantization.py quantize.py header URL, docstring, __all__, 5 imports (calibrate, QuantFormat/QuantizationMode/QuantType, _restore_histogram_calibration_dtypes, load_model_with_shape_infer)
ort_calibration.py +83, but every line is the verbatim body of _select_tensors_to_calibrate / _init_calibrater_base re-rendered because they moved from the end of the old module to the top of the new one

So the four adapted-code modules are pure moves; the only genuinely new code in the PR is ort_patches.py (92 lines, and patch_ort_modules is byte-identical to the removed one — including the carried-forward asymmetry where the per-node branch patches HistogramCollector.collect but not collect_absolute_value).

Follow-up commit items confirmed

  • License-header accuracy fixed. ort_patches.py now carries the plain Apache-2.0 header with no Microsoft MIT notice or "Adapted from" URLs, and is correctly absent from the insert-license exclude list so the hook gates it. The four adapted-code files are excluded and keep the combined Apache-2.0 AND MIT SPDX. Per-file URL lists now match what each file actually contains: ort_calibration/ort_calibration_per_nodecalibrate.py only; ort_sessionquant_utils.py + calibrate.py; ort_quantizationquant_utils.py + calibrate.py + onnx_quantizer.py + the newly added quantize.py (correct for _quantize_static).
  • Test files renamed to test_ort_calibration.py / test_ort_quantization.py, with unique basenames across tests/ — no pytest import-mismatch risk (the tree has essentially no __init__.py).
  • _prepare_histogram_data still crosses from ort_calibration_per_nodeort_calibration, so prior SUGGESTION 2 is outstanding. Still non-blocking.

Other things confirmed this round

  • Every monkeypatch string target lands in the namespace that actually holds the binding, not just a plausible module: ort_session.onnx_utils / ort_session.add_infer_metadata (both imported there), ort_quantization.calibrate.create_calibrator and ort_quantization.QDQQuantizer, ort_calibration.load_model_with_shape_infer (the namespace _init_calibrater_base resolves it from). A wrong-but-existing target here would silently no-op the mock and pass, so I checked each against the importing module rather than the function's old home.
  • test_patch_composition_uses_capability_owners restores state completely. I diffed its patch_targets seed list against the patch_ort_modules body: every attribute either branch writes is seeded, including the per-node-only HistogramCollector.collect. With getattr(owner, attr, None) + raising=False, pytest records notset for absent attributes and delattrs them on undo, so the patch_ort_modules(True) call at the end cannot leak per-node patches into test_quantize_static_fp16_high_range_scale later in the same module (which applies patch_ort_modules(False) itself and does not clean up). This is a real improvement over the pre-split test.
  • Characterization test change is the correct consequence of this PR. Moving xfail(strict=True) from the whole test onto individual params via _FUTURE_LEGACY_IMPORT_XFAIL promotes ort-patching-module to a live assertion while leaving the not-yet-removed int8/fp8/qdq_utils cases as strict xfails. Renaming test_future_legacy_calibrated_imports_are_removedtest_legacy_calibrated_imports_are_removed matches the new mixed semantics.
  • Import graph is acyclic. ort_session ← {ort_calibration, ort_quantization, ort_utils}; ort_calibration ← {ort_calibration_per_node, ort_quantization, ort_patches}. Nothing in the new set imports ort_utils, so splitting _configure_session_providers out to ort_session while ort_utils.create_inference_session keeps calling it introduces no cycle.
  • No stale references. ort_patching survives only in the characterization-test param, the new Backward Breaking Changes entry, and the historical 0.4x CHANGELOG note (correct to leave — it describes a shipped release). Nothing in docs/, examples/, or plugins/.
  • __all__ = [] on the new modules is inert: modelopt/onnx/quantization/__init__.py does no star-import and the old module had no __all__, so no public surface changed.
  • The Backward Breaking Changes entry is one sentence with a complete migration map, matching the graph_utils precedent directly above it.

Caveat on method: python -c and ruff were not runnable in this environment, so import-time verification is static. That gap is covered in CI — pyproject.toml selects ruff's full F rule set, so a missing import (F821) or a stranded one (F401) in any of the new modules fails pre-commit, which the author reports running.

Suggestions (non-blocking)

  1. The test-naming rule this PR adds to CONTRIBUTING.md isn't satisfied by the two test files this PR renames — both are genuinely cross-module but got single-module names, and test_ort_quantization.py is mis-attributed (only 2 of 5 tests target ort_quantization; two target ort_calibration, one targets ort_patches) with a docstring still describing the pre-split scope. Inline comment has the per-file breakdown and two ways to resolve it, one of which needs no test moves.
  2. (Carried over, still open) ort_calibration_per_node importing _prepare_histogram_data from ort_calibration makes one capability module depend on a sibling for a helper all three share — a neutral owner would keep the siblings independent, which is the property that justifies the split.

Risk assessment

Low. Mechanically verified pure move with the previously-flagged attribution problem now fixed: no numerical, patch-composition, or session-configuration behavior changes, and the sole intentional behavior change (the characterization assertion going live) follows directly from removing the module. The declared breaking change is a private-module import path, correctly documented. The codecov delta is previously-uncovered code relocating into new files, not new untested logic. Both remaining items are layering and naming polish.
