- Free reserved VRAM in the diffusion load worker's failure path: a load-time OOM
never commits _state and the next load's _unload_locked early-returns, so nothing
else reclaimed the half-built pipeline's memory
- Use a monotonic clock for the denoise ETA rate
- Sync _GENERATION_DEFAULTS with the UI table: kontext, flux.2-dev, sdxl-turbo and
SDXL base rows so /v1/images/generations stops falling back to 9 steps / CFG 0
- 400 (not sanitized 500) when /v1/images/generations hits an edit-only model
- Fail fast on pre-Ampere CUDA in the DiT trainer instead of dying in model load
- Run the trainer trust gate in the diffusion training route before freeing GPU
residents so an untrusted base cannot tear down loaded chat/Images models
- Protect native sd.cpp companion VAE/text-encoder repos from cache deletion while
a load is downloading them
- Exempt the task-scoped Images picker from the chat-only GGUF/MLX format gate so
local diffusers pipelines stay selectable on no-GPU hosts
logs/ (a 1.3 MB ComfyUI object_info dump plus stale PID files), temp/ (PR body
and commit message scratch), and async_task_outputs/ (agent task transcripts)
are environment specific runtime artifacts that were committed by accident and
carry stale local state into every checkout. Remove them and gitignore the
directories so they cannot be re-added.
The generic Studio config dict path can deliver these flags as strings, and a
non-empty string like "false" is truthy, so an opt-out silently no-ops (the
latent cache still builds, TF32 stays on). Coerce them the same way
gradient_checkpointing already is.
Measured on the fresh linux x64 prebuilt (z-image Q8_0, sd-cli, 192 CPU
threads, 512x512, 9 steps, steady state): sampling 56.1s vs 51.3s (about
9 percent faster), VAE decode unchanged, peak RSS identical. The sd.cpp
engine only serves the no-GPU tier, so the default profile now matches
max: --diffusion-fa plus --diffusion-conv-direct.
A 28-pair accuracy gate on a B200 (same-seed vs the dense bf16 reference)
found per-row fp8 dynamic quant renders EVERY qwen-image frame black
(mean luma 0.0000, SSIM 0.016), reproduced identically with on-the-fly
quantize_ on the dense transformer, so it is the model's activation range,
not a checkpoint artifact. mxfp8 shows real semantic damage at 1024px
(CLIP delta mean 0.0146, worst cases 0.064/0.102) and nvfp4 measures
LPIPS mean 0.51. int8 dynamic (per-token scales) is excellent on Qwen:
LPIPS mean 0.069, SSIM 0.958.
The per-scheme smoke probe only proves the GEMM kernel runs, so it cannot
catch model-level breakage. Add _FAMILY_SCHEME_DENY consulted by
select_transformer_quant_scheme: auto skips denied schemes (Qwen lands on
int8) and an explicit denied request returns None, the same GGUF-fallback
contract as an unsupported scheme. Family is threaded from the three
diffusion.py call sites; existing behavior is unchanged for every other
family. 4 new tests; 529 diffusion tests green; CI-sim green.
train_precision_modes gates int8/fp8/mxfp8 on has_functional_torchao, and the
Backend CI runner does not install torchao, so the three capability-gating
tests collapsed to nf4/bf16/auto and failed. They exercise the CAPABILITY
gate, not torchao presence: stub the probe functional alongside the CUDA
capability patch. Validated with a torchao-blocked run (22 passed).
spec.forward imports Krea2Pipeline for prepare_position_ids, so the test needs a
real diffusers install; the backend CI matrix runs without one and failed on the
import. Same importorskip guard the sigmas gather test already uses.
The always-visible description under the select is gone (the hint tooltip keeps the
full detail) and the no-model gallery placeholder now reads 'Select a diffusion model
to load'.
The fp16-on-bf16-family refusal in run_dit_lora_training now fires before the heavy
imports, so a host without diffusers gets the real validation error instead of
ModuleNotFoundError. test_in_progress_returns_409_after_validation_passes pins the
resolved device to cuda because the load route only takes the GPU arbiter for non-CPU
loads, which made the ownership assert host-dependent.
