The start-route preflight caught the bf16-GPU and int8-torchao requirements but not the dense
precisions' CUDA requirement: on a GPU-less host bf16_unsupported_reason exempts CPU-only, so a
bf16/fp8 (or int8-with-torchao) DiT request passed the preflight, evicted resident workloads, then
raised only in the trainer child. Add the dense-mode CUDA gate mirroring _resolve_base_precision so
the doomed run is rejected up front. Also pin bf16_unsupported_reason in the two positive-path
family-info tests so they are deterministic across GPU types (a non-bf16 CUDA box would otherwise
empty every DiT family's advertised modes).
Krea-2-Raw is in _TRUSTED_NON_GGUF_REPOS, so it is inference-loadable, but the generic
"krea" generation-defaults key matched it too and applied Turbo's distilled 8-step / no-CFG
recipe, producing degraded output on the undistilled base. Add a more specific krea-2-raw key
(52 steps, guidance 3.5 per the model card) ahead of the generic one, in both the backend
table and the frontend MODEL_DEFAULTS so the Studio UI and the OpenAI images route agree.
The start route preflight only rejected non-bf16 GPUs; an explicit int8 request on
a host with a missing or stub torchao passed the preflight, evicted resident GPU
workloads, then died in the trainer child (its int8 base quantizer has no fallback).
Fold both gates into training_precision_preflight_error so int8-without-torchao fails
fast before eviction. Also empty the advertised DiT precision_modes (and surface the
reason in vram_note, drop compile) whenever the bf16 preflight would reject the family,
so /info never offers an nf4 DiT option the route always 400s.
DiffusionCharts deliberately renders only Training Loss + Gradient Norm (the LR
curve is the deterministic schedule the user picked), but the settings copy and two
comments still promised a live LR chart. Reword them so the UI no longer references a
chart that was intentionally dropped.
- DiffusionFamily gains deploy_base_repo (krea/Krea-2-Turbo): deploying a LoRA
trained on Raw now previews it on Turbo, not the non-distilled Raw checkpoint.
Scoped to a same-precision override so it never turns an nf4 train base into a
larger bf16 deploy load; exposed through family_train_infos -> the Train UI's
onDeployClick / historical-run deploy resolve the deploy base.
- _GENERATION_DEFAULTS gains a Krea entry (8 steps, 0 CFG) so the OpenAI
/v1/images/generations route matches the Create UI's documented distilled recipe
instead of falling through to the generic (9, 0.0).
- normalized() + family_train_infos() mirror the inference fp8 deny for
Qwen-Image (activation outliers exceed fp8's range and corrupt the trained
result); int8 stays allowed and the UI no longer advertises fp8 for it.
- _resolve_base_precision() gates an explicit int8 on a FUNCTIONAL torchao, the
same gate auto and /info already apply, so a missing/stub torchao fails fast
instead of silently loading dense with compile disabled.
- train_precision_modes() gates the dense modes (bf16/int8/fp8/auto) on
torch.cuda.is_bf16_supported(), so a non-bf16 CUDA GPU (T4/V100/RTX 20xx) is
offered only nf4 instead of a start that evicts resident models and then fails.
- start_diffusion_training preflights bf16 support for the DiT families BEFORE
_free_gpu_for_diffusion_training(), so any DiT start (nf4 included, since the
trainer requires bf16 unconditionally on CUDA) fails fast without eviction.
- The torchao 0.17 MX training path swaps a matched frozen Linear's weight for a wrapper tensor
whose linear override computes input @ weight_t and drops the bias, so mxfp8'ing a biased frozen
linear silently loses its bias and corrupts the base output the LoRA regresses against (verified
on Blackwell: the bias term is fully dropped). Skip biased linears in _mx_module_filter.
- _resolve_base_precision re-checked explicit dense modes against the live device but only rejected
CPU, so an explicit mxfp8 request on a non-Blackwell CUDA GPU passed and then crashed at the first
MX GEMM after a full dense-transformer load. /info only advertises mxfp8 on sm100+; mirror that
gate here and fail fast for a stale or direct client below Blackwell.
Review follow-ups on the image-generation PR:
- ControlNet: resolve_controlnet accepts a bare owner/name repo without the
non-GGUF base trust gate, and _controlnet_pipe hands it straight to
from_pretrained. A malicious pickle .bin would deserialize on load, so run
the same Hugging Face malware preflight (evaluate_file_security) the chat and
export loaders use before any remote ControlNet load; local dirs are exempt.
- Dataset thumbnails: key the cache on the full filename instead of the stem so
sample.png and sample.jpg no longer collide on one .thumbs file (which could
serve or delete the wrong image); the delete cleanup globs the same key.
- Diffusion training start: mirror start_training's API-key guard so an API
client cannot start training (which frees VRAM by unloading chat) while an
inference request is streaming; it now returns 409 before any GPU is freed.
- Model picker: include the curated safetensors row keys in the recommended
roving key list so arrow-key navigation reaches those rows instead of hitting
the duplicate option-missing id.
Tests: ControlNet malware gate (remote blocked before from_pretrained, local
skipped), thumbnail same-stem cache separation, API-key diffusion-start 409
before GPU free. Full diffusion suites green.
The latent cache holds two fp32 posterior tensors per crop/flip variant per
image, pinned on CUDA hosts, so datasets with thousands of images can exhaust
host or pinned memory with no fallback. Estimate the cache size from the first
real encoded latent and fall back to per-step VAE encoding when it exceeds a
4 GiB budget. UNSLOTH_DIFFUSION_FORCE_LATENT_CACHE bypasses the gate; the
existing UNSLOTH_DIFFUSION_NO_LATENT_CACHE opt-out is unchanged.
Replace the with-replacement per-batch index draw in the SDXL and DiT LoRA
trainers with a shared PermutationBatchSampler that visits every image once per
cycle before repeating, so short runs cover the whole dataset. The sampler
reshuffles from the run's rng so the index stream stays seed-deterministic.
Guard the diffusion run detail route against a valid-JSON non-object record,
which previously raised TypeError and returned a 500; it now 404s like the list
path's shape check.
Add regression tests for both.
