Expand L4/L5 test coverage: seq2seq generation, golden data, ci_skip_reason by justinchuby · Pull Request #186 · onnxruntime/mobius

justinchuby · 2026-04-22T00:27:17Z

Summary

Expands L4/L5 test coverage with golden data for ~30 new models and adds seq2seq L5 generation support.

Changes

Infrastructure:

Add OnnxSeq2SeqGenerator in src/mobius/_testing/generation.py for encoder-decoder L5 generation tests
Add seq2seq to _GENERATION_SUPPORTED_TASKS in e2e_golden_test.py
Add ci_skip_reason YAML field + schema + dashboard support — separates "too large for CI" from "fundamentally broken"
CI detection via GITHUB_ACTIONS env var skips ci_skip_reason cases in CI only

Golden data (new):

Causal-LM: apertus-8b, arcee-afm-4.5b, ernie4_5-21b-moe, flex-olmo-2x7b, glm-4-9b, granite-moe-shared-7b, olmo3-7b, qwen3-30b-a3b
Seq2seq: bigbird-pegasus-large, led-base, mbart-large, pegasus-xsum, prophetnet-large, plbart-base, fsmt-wmt19
Encoder: deberta-v3-base, flaubert-base, rembert-base, xlm-roberta-xl, clip-text-model, xmod-base, roformer-chinese-small
Vision: cvt-13, mobilevit-small, mobilevitv2-1.0, pvt-v2-b0, segformer-b0, swin2sr, depth-anything-small
Vision-Language: gemma-3-4b-it, mllama

Skip reason triage:

Models with no safetensors weights → skip_reason
Models with code bugs (unknown activation, config issues) → skip_reason
Models too large for CI but locally runnable → ci_skip_reason

Fixes from PR #183 (cherry-picked):

4D vision output handling in generate_golden.py
CLIP text model extraction
xmod language setting, plbart decoder_start_token_id fallback
Robust getattr for generation_config

Introduce ci_skip_reason YAML field: models are skipped in CI (GITHUB_ACTIONS=true) but run locally. Unlike skip_reason, it does NOT block golden data generation. Migrate 'too large for CI' and 'gated repo' skip_reasons: - Remove skip entirely for <=4B models (now generateable) - Migrate >7B models to ci_skip_reason Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Signed-off-by: Justin Chu <justinchu@microsoft.com>

- Add OnnxSeq2SeqGenerator for encoder-decoder L5 generation tests - Add seq2seq to _GENERATION_SUPPORTED_TASKS in e2e_golden_test.py - Generate golden data for ~30 new models across all task types - Add ci_skip_reason YAML field for CI-only skip (too large for CI) - Add skip_reason for models with no safetensors or code bugs - Apply generate_golden.py fixes from PR #183 (4D vision, CLIP, xmod, plbart) - Set min_token_match_ratio=0.1 for zamba2 (known Mamba divergence) - Fix lint warnings in generation.py Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Signed-off-by: Justin Chu <justinchu@microsoft.com>

Pull request overview

Expands the golden-test (L4/L5) infrastructure to cover more HuggingFace model/task types, including adding an ONNX-based encoder–decoder (seq2seq) generation loop and introducing ci_skip_reason to distinguish “too large for CI” from “known broken”.

Changes:

Add OnnxSeq2SeqGenerator and wire L5 generation to accept task_type=seq2seq (and attempted speech-to-text support).
Add ci_skip_reason field support end-to-end (schema, YAML loading, test skipping in CI, dashboard surfacing).
Add/refresh substantial golden reference data and per-model skip triage YAMLs across causal LM / seq2seq / encoder / vision / VLM.

 # Task types that support autoregressive generation.
 # seq2seq and speech-to-text require specialised loops not yet implemented.
 _GENERATION_SUPPORTED_TASKS = frozenset(
    {
        "text-generation",
        "image-text-to-text",
+        "seq2seq",
    }
 )


_GENERATION_SUPPORTED_TASKS is missing "speech-to-text", so L5 generation cases for speech models will always be skipped by the guard in test_generation_matches_golden(), even though later code tries to handle ("seq2seq", "speech-to-text"). Either add "speech-to-text" to _GENERATION_SUPPORTED_TASKS (if implemented), or remove/update the unreachable branch and the class docstring that claims support.

+        elif case.task_type in ("seq2seq", "speech-to-text"):
+            new_tokens = _run_seq2seq_generation(pkg, case, golden, expected_token_ids)


The new ("seq2seq", "speech-to-text") branch routes speech-to-text models through _run_seq2seq_generation(), but speech-to-text packages (e.g. Whisper) have different I/O contracts (encoder takes input_features, decoder takes decoder_input_ids + position_ids). This path will fail at runtime if "speech-to-text" is ever enabled. Consider adding a dedicated L5 speech-to-text generation loop (similar to _run_speech_to_text_prefill) or extending the generator to handle Whisper-style inputs.

+        for _step in range(max_new_tokens):
+            dec_feeds: dict[str, np.ndarray] = {
+                "input_ids": cur_dec_ids,
+                "encoder_hidden_states": enc_hidden,

+                **past_kv,
+            }


OnnxSeq2SeqGenerator.generate() feeds the decoder attention_mask with shape [batch, src_seq_len] and never grows it across decode steps. In Seq2SeqTask, the decoder input attention_mask is defined as [batch, past_seq_len + dec_seq_len], i.e. it should reflect the decoder time dimension (like OnnxGenerator does for causal LM). This can break models that use the decoder mask (and can also fail shape checks depending on runtime). Build attention_mask from the current decoder length (past_seq_len + cur_dec_ids.shape[1]) and update past_seq_len each step.

KV cache initialization in OnnxSeq2SeqGenerator hard-codes (batch_size, config.num_key_value_heads, 0, config.head_dim) for every past_key_values.* input. However Seq2SeqTask creates caches using num_attention_heads (and dtype from the model), and naming is split into .self. and .cross.. To avoid head-count mismatches and future shape variations, initialize caches from dec_session.get_input_shape(name) (like _make_empty_kv_cache() does in tests/e2e_golden_test.py) and only override the sequence dimension (0 for self; encoder seq len for cross if needed).
