npu: the Whisper host reference (#1931) with its blockers cleared, onto main — supersedes #1931 and #2035 (Refs #1783) - #2133
Conversation
…ken table (WIP, engine#1725)
The gemma-4 1.9 components carry, beside `embed_tokens.weight`, a PER-LAYER table and a projection norm:
embedding.embed_tokens_per_layer.weight (262144, 8960) f32, external (= 35 layers x 256 head_dim)
embedding.per_layer_projection_norm.weight (256,) f32
The decoder consumes them as `per_layer_inputs`, so a container with only the token table gives the decoder less than it
asks for -- which is why the previous commit refused such a component by name. This adds the reader, so the next slice can
write the container section the forward path will load.
EmbedPerLayer { table [V][layers*head_dim] row-major, norm [width], V, width } + `ok()`;
read_embedding_per_layer(pack_dir, why) resolves the component exactly as the token half does -- genai_config.json's
model.embedding.filename (relative only, no ".."), external data beside the GRAPH rather than at the pack root -- reads
f32, refuses any other dtype by name rather than mis-decoding it, and says so when the projection norm is missing
(the table is still usable, but a consumer expecting a projected row would silently take raw ones).
WIP: no container section and no forward consumer yet; that is the next slice, with its test. Builds clean
(`npu_pack_import_test` rc 0). No vendor code or layout: only the pack's own ONNX names and dims are read.
…(WIP, engine#1725)
Second half of the reader in the previous commit: `import_pack()` now writes the per-layer table and its projection norm
beside the token table --
model.embed_tokens_per_layer.weight BF16 {V, layers*head_dim} (from the component's f32)
model.per_layer_projection_norm.weight BF16 {layers*head_dim}
-- and the slice-1 refusal in `read_embedding_component()` is relaxed to match: a component that carries
`embed_tokens_per_layer` is no longer refused by that reader, because the mechanism it was waiting for now exists.
Measured on the real pack with this change (`1bit npu-pack info ~/scratch-packs/pi-demo/e2b`, loader built from main):
before: the pack has no model.embed_tokens.weight, and the component carries embedding.embed_tokens_per_layer.weight,
i.e. a PER-LAYER embedding table ... the per-layer embedding mechanism is not implemented here yet
after: rc 0, a full plan -- dims hidden 1536 / 35L / 8 heads / 1 kv / head_dim 256 / IM 6144 / vocab 262144,
423 tensors, and 350 `incomplete` entries that all say the same NEXT thing:
"layer blocks not located: the epsilon headers do not repeat with a single period"
So the embedding half is no longer what blocks a gemma-4 pack: the next wall is the Token .fconst block layout, whose rule
row cannot be measured for gemma-4 (no 1.8 twin exists) -- the `txn_bins` preformat route designed on engine#1503.
WIP: no host test yet (next commit), and no forward-path consumer of the two new tensors yet.
… that made it fail first (engine#1725)
Test for the two WIP commits before it: `read_embedding_per_layer()` reads the component's
`embed_tokens_per_layer` (V x layers*head_dim) and `per_layer_projection_norm` (width) as f32, resolving both through
genai_config.json's embedding component and its external data beside the graph; and the token table must still read beside
it, because slice 2 is what makes that safe (slice 1 refused such a component on purpose).
Two fixture mistakes are worth the comment they now carry, because both produce a fixture that looks right:
* `std::vector<float> norm(size_t(width))` is a FUNCTION DECLARATION (most vexing parse);
* `std::vector<float> norm{size_t(width)}` is an initializer_list of ONE element = width, so the table is 1 value wide
and the reader correctly reports "declares more bytes than its data carries" for the norm.
The two-arg form is the only one that does what it looks like.
Runs: `per-layer: V 4 width 6, why: (tok 48 per 96 norm 24 bytes)` then `all npu-pack checks passed`. The slice-1 arm that
asserted the per-layer refusal is flipped to the new contract (the token table reads; the per-layer half is handled here).
…by three numbers (engine#1725)
The band the per-layer embedding feeds is `out[k] = table[id][k] * norm[k]` over the layer's own slice of a
layers*head_dim-wide row; that is the whole arithmetic, so it lives in a header-only function with no container and no
device (`npu/forward/include/per_layer_embed.h`) and a test that can be read as the spec:
row0 {1,2,3,4} * norm {2,2,0.5,0.25} -> {2,4,1.5,1}
row1 {-1,0.5,0,8} * same norm -> {-2,1,0,2} (a different id picks a different row)
null norm -> the row passes through, because a MISSING projection is not a ZERO one
id out of range, or no table -> output untouched (the loader can hand a short container)
Runs: `per-layer gather: row0 -> 2.00 4.00 1.50 1.00` then all checks pass.
Also in this commit: the test target gains `npu/forward/include` on its include path (it had only the engine's own), and a
comment records the trap I hit twice in this file: `std::vector<T> v(size_t(n))` is a FUNCTION DECLARATION, and
`std::vector<T> v{size_t(n)}` is an initializer_list of one element — only the two-arg form does what it looks like.
…/complete() (engine#1725, WIP)
Tracing the component's graph end to end (not its node list) showed the per-layer input is
( rmsnorm((inputs_embeds @ per_layer_model_projection.weight_t_Q4) * H**-0.5, per_layer_projection_norm) + 16*table[id] ) / sqrt(2)
so the table and its norm are only TWO of the three tensors: the context projection is the third, and without it the
per-layer input is `16*table/sqrt(2)` -- plausible, and wrong at every layer. The component carries it quantised
(`per_layer_model_projection.weight_t_Q4` [8960,48,16], `..._t_scales`, packed `..._t_zero_point`), and the loader wants it
dequantised as `model.per_layer_model_proj.weight_layer{l}` [P][H] BF16 per layer.
* `read_embedding_per_layer(pack_dir, hidden, why)` now dequantises that projection through the file's own
`decode_matmulnbits()` (same decoder the rest of the importer uses) and holds it as [NL][P][H] f32; `hidden` is a
parameter because it comes from the pack's geometry, not from the component.
* `ok()` is what the reader guarantees (table + norm); `complete()` additionally requires the projection. A component
with the first but not the second imports the table and is refused by the LOADER on `per_layer_model_proj.weight_layer0`,
which is the honest place to refuse -- the importer does not know whether the decoder declares per_layer_inputs.
Measured on `amd/gemma-4-e2b-it-mobius-int4_rai_1.9.0_npu`'s component: table 262144x8960 f32, norm 256 (shared by all 35
layers -- the graph reshapes to [.., 35, 256] around the norm), projection K=1536 N=8960 block 32 int4.
WIP: the container still writes the two old names; the rename to the loader's names and the projection emission are the next
commit, together with the forward's BF16 band path for the table.
… loads (engine#1725, WIP)
The forward's `build_ple_inputs()`/`load_ple_block()` already implement this family's arithmetic -- I traced the component's
graph and it is line for line the same: `context = rmsnorm((emb @ W_l) * H**-0.5, norm)`, `identity = 16 * table[id]`,
`per_layer_input = (context + identity)/sqrt(2)` -- but it reads different names than the importer wrote. This commit closes
that gap:
model.per_layer_token_embd.weight BF16 {V, NL*P} (was model.embed_tokens_per_layer.weight)
model.per_layer_proj_norm.weight BF16 {P} (was model.per_layer_projection_norm.weight)
model.per_layer_model_proj.weight_layer{l} BF16 {P, H}, l = 0..NL-1 (was absent)
The token table is **streamed**, never materialised: `read_per_layer_table_band()` maps the component's external data and
converts 32 rows at a time from f32 to BF16 straight into the container blob, because the full table is V x NL*P f32 =
9.4 GiB on gemma-4-e2b and a converting copy of that would be the largest allocation in the import.
Two bugs of my own found while writing it, both worth the comments they carry:
* the first version of the band reader did `memcpy(dst, src, n * 4)` into a `uint16_t*` of n elements -- 4 bytes per
element into a 2-byte-per-element buffer, i.e. a 2x overflow. Removed before it ran;
* the projection matrices were being dequantised but never written; `pl.complete()` (table + norm + projection) is what
now gates the per-layer emission, and a component with `ok()` but not `complete()` still writes the table, leaving the
refusal to the LOADER (`missing model.per_layer_model_proj.weight_layer0`), which is the honest place.
All existing checks pass; copyright rc 0. WIP: the forward still lacks a RAW-BF16 band path in `load_ple_block` (it handles
plain int8 + scale, or the chunked container formats), so this container is one loader branch away from being readable.
`load_ple_block()` handled two shapes: plain int8 + a per-32-column `.scale`, and the chunked container formats. The multi-component packs state this table as f32 and the importer converts it to BF16 when it writes the container -- a converting copy of the whole V x NL*P table would be 9.4 GiB on gemma-4-e2b -- so the container's table is raw BF16 and neither branch matched it. The band is the same shape the int8 branch handles (32 rows x cols), with a 2-byte element instead of a code, so this is a loop of `bf16_to_f32` over the band, chosen by data_size: a multiple of the BF16 band and NOT the plain-int8 size. That ordering matters -- `plain_bytes` (one byte per element) and a BF16 band differ by a factor of two, and testing int8 first would take a BF16 table whose size happens to equal `plain_bytes` for another geometry. With this, a container written by the importer (#1725's `83c323b`) is readable end to end on the embedding side: table (banded), norm (256), and the per-layer context projections.
…el's arithmetic (engine#1725)
The previous commit on this branch added `per_layer_gather()` computing `table[id] * norm`, from a reading of the component's
node LIST. Tracing the component's graph end to end showed something else:
per_layer_inputs = ( rmsnorm((inputs_embeds @ per_layer_model_projection.weight_t_Q4) * H**-0.5,
per_layer_projection_norm) + 16*table[id] ) / sqrt(2)
-- the norm applies to the projected CONTEXT, the table row is ADDED (times 16 = sqrt(256)), and the sum is scaled by
1/sqrt(2). That is exactly what the forward's `build_ple_inputs()` already computes, so the primitive was not merely
unused, it was wrong, and a pure function with a passing test is exactly the wrong thing to leave in a tree for someone to
call later.
Deleted: `npu/forward/include/per_layer_embed.h`, its test, and the test target's include line it needed. The container and
loader work that DOES match the graph stays (earlier commits on this branch): the three PLE tensors written under the names
the forward reads, the streamed BF16 table, and `load_ple_block()`'s raw-BF16 band path.
Deleting beats keeping a wrong primitive as documentation: the retraction is recorded on engine#1725 with the graph, which
is where someone changing this will look.
…engine#1503)
`fconst19_detect()` requires ONE stride for the whole file. The mobius line does not have one -- measured on
gemma-4-e2b: 35 blocks, each opening with 8 anchors (8 heads x 4 B = 32-byte header), sizes 21.87 MiB to 288.06 MiB --
so the detect fails and the pack was reported the same way as a file that is simply not a 1.9 fconst at all.
* `fconst19_block_starts()` is the run scan on its own (exactly `layers` runs of `heads*4` anchor bytes), so a caller can
tell the two cases apart before the stride test;
* when the runs are there but the strides differ, the refusal now NAMES the structure: how many blocks, where the first
one starts, and the size range in KiB, plus why the rule table cannot be the answer ("one stride per file" is the
table's model) and what the answer is (the per-layer block table; the anchors give the starts, and each block's size
follows that layer's own projection shapes).
On the real pack:
1bit npu-pack: … this IS a Ryzen AI 1.9 Token .fconst (35 blocks of 32 B headers at 2564864 B) but its blocks are NOT
uniform: 22395 KiB to 294973 KiB, i.e. a variable-stride container. The rule table describes one stride per file, so no
row can fit it; this family (mobius/MatFormer) needs the per-layer block table instead …
Crafted arm: four blocks with different body sizes are refused by name (`variable stride: refused by name
(variable-stride container)`), so the distinction is pinned without a 1.3 GiB pack.
…ot by arithmetic on the size Review of #1825 caught a real collision class in my BF16-band branch: it separated the two layouts with data_size >= (block+1)*bf16_bytes && data_size % bf16_bytes == 0 && data_size != plain_bytes and every multiple of the band satisfies the first two, so a plain table whose byte count happens to divide would be read as 32-row BF16 bands -- "plausible and wrong", the failure my own comment warns about. The tree already decides this way elsewhere (`model.c` does `strcmp(dtype, "I8")` on the same field) and `q4nx_dequant.h`'s rule is that an ambiguous tile count is refused rather than resolved by which test happens to pass. * BF16 is taken only when the container SAYS BF16, and then its size must be whole 32-row bands (else refused); * plain I8 (or Q4) keeps the existing int8 + .scale path; * any other DECLARED dtype is refused by name, and so is an EMPTY one -- a container written by this importer always states a dtype (`w.add()` writes it for every tensor), so "no dtype" means a foreign or truncated container, not a layout this loader may guess. `model.c` populates `dtype` for every tensor entry that carries the key, which is what makes the branch sound rather than merely tidier; that is stated in the comment next to the test.
…to switch the block on (engine#1725)
The per-layer tensors are useless without the two numbers the forward's semantics reader gates the whole block on
(`hidden_size_per_layer_input > 0`, q4nx_semantics.c). gemma-4 states them in model_config.json's text_config
(256 and 262144); the container's own config.json did not carry them, so an import would write the table, the norm and the
per-layer projections and then the forward would skip the block silently -- the worst failure shape, because the container
looks complete.
* when the component is `complete()` (table + norm + context projection), the container's config.json gains
`hidden_size_per_layer_input` = P and `vocab_size_per_layer_input` = V, taken from the COMPONENT (where they are
measured) rather than from the pack's config, which may not state them at all;
* the three Gemma-4 layer-shape switches the same reader consults -- `num_kv_shared_layers`, `use_double_wide_mlp`,
`extra_layer_norms` -- are carried through when model_config.json's text_config states them, and left absent otherwise
so the reader's defaults apply.
The read happens at the config-writing site, which lives in a different writer from the one that emits the tensors: one
metadata parse (names, dims, the quantised projection header -- the 9.4 GiB table is NOT read there) rather than plumbing a
value across two functions.

The branch carried eleven pre-squash commits of engine#1725, which main has
since merged and moved on from; those are what conflicted. Resolution: main's
version of npu/pack_import.{h,cpp}, tests/npu_pack_import_test.cpp and
CMakeLists.txt, with only the audio commits' delta (111ba73..61426f5)
reapplied on top: parse_onnx_graph() and the audio targets.

VERDICT at 7e10fcc: READY
Reviewed head 7e10fcc (refs #1783). #2035 and #2133 are the same branch at the same head; #2035's base is main-audioops and #2133's is main. I reviewed it against main, which is the merge that can land, and post the same verdict on both.
Merge and scope
git merge-treeonto current main: no conflicts. The diff against main is the audio work only, 14 files, +2111/−1.- CI at this head is green:
build,hrx_build, CodeQL, the hrx-system pin checks. Theunstablestate was the pr_agent job still running. - The
onebit_npusource-list conflict kept both sides: main'snpu/vision_image.cpp(CMakeLists.txt:737) and this branch'snpu/audio_exec.cpp(:738).
The one change to shared code is safe for existing packs. The protobuf reader in npu/pack_import.cpp now keeps a wire-type-5 (fixed32) field's bytes in v; before, every float attribute read as 0.0. I checked every read of a field's v in main's pack_import.cpp (:73, :191, :192, :222, :316). All of them are varint fields: TensorProto data_type/dims, AttributeProto.i, a boolean flag. No existing caller reads a fixed32 field. The LLM-side epsilon logic reads bf16 bytes from .fconst, not a protobuf attribute. So the change is additive for existing packs.
Tests, from an NPU build of this head (ONEBIT_NPU=ON, host path; whisper-small from pi-demo/whisper-small):
audio_ops_test: "conv1d … layer_norm … gelu … softmax … all pass", rc 0.audio_mel_test: "front-end matches the reference extractor on tones, silences on the clamp", rc 0.audio_parallel_test: "audio_parallel: ok", rc 0.onnx_graph_test <encoder>: "topological order, op census (12 layers …) and layer-norm epsilon all hold", rc 0.audio_exec_test <encoder> <decoder>, rc 0: "ran 447 nodes -> dims 1 1500 768 … whole encoder on the host matches onnxruntime" and "decoder ran 786 nodes -> dims 1 128 51865 … decoder graph runs on the host and matches onnxruntime". The body lists the decoder arm as not run at this head; it passes here.
Mutants of npu/audio_parallel.h, each rebuilt and run:
| mutant | result |
|---|---|
a worker skips the last unit (u + 1 < units) |
rc 1: "MatMul at ONEBIT_AUDIO_THREADS=2 is bit-identical to the serial result" |
| exceptions joined but never rethrown | rc 1: "a unit that throws on 2 thread(s) is an exception the caller catches" |
| one unit run twice | rc 1: the same bit-identity arm |
I restored the file (git status clean); the rebuilt test is ok.
Not run by me: whisper_transcribe end to end (built, not run). As the body says, nothing here runs on the NPU; it is the host reference the device work is measured against.
When #2133 merges, #2035 and #1931 can be closed, as its body says.

VERDICT: READY at 7e10fcc
One coordination note first, because it is the only thing that can go wrong here: #2103 is still open and is not in this branch.
The stacking hazard, measured
$ grep -c parallel_units_spawn npu/audio_parallel.h -> 0 (this branch)
$ grep -c 'failed_start\|a_failed_start' tests/audio_parallel_test.cpp -> 0
$ gh pr view 2103 -> OPEN 39b2f4c ; main has no `parallel_units_spawn` either
#2103 (npu: a worker the audio pool cannot start is an exception, not std::terminate) is still open, its base is #2035's branch, and this PR is #1931 + #2035's fixes taken
straight onto main. So whichever lands second needs a rebase: #2103 adds the parallel_units_spawn seam and the start-failure arm to the same header and test file this PR
brings forward. That is not a defect in either PR — it is the price of a third PR to unblock a stalled branch — but the merge order decides who rebases, and it should be
#2133 first (it is the one on main and the one with the test infrastructure), then #2103 rebased onto it.
What I checked in this PR
tests/audio_parallel_test.cppis present and carries the bit-identity arms (5 hits onmemcmp/bit-identical);- the host-work chain is here:
tests/onnx_graph_test.cpp(+132),tools/whisper_transcribe.cpp(+203), and the fourteen files total; - the reason a third PR exists is stated and is the right call: #1931 has not moved since 2026-11-10 17:56Z and conflicts with main while carrying three unanswered
CHANGES; #2035 fixed them onto #1931's branch, which cannot land while #1931 cannot. Taking the fixed content straight onto main is how a stalled chain unblocks
without rewriting anyone's work — and it keeps #2035's two mutant-proved arms, which are the evidence this work needed.
One thing I would like stated in the body, not for correctness but for the next reader: which of #1931 / #2035 / #2103 this PR is a superset of, and which it is not.
It says it supersedes #1931 and #2035; #2103 is not mentioned, and #2103 is the one that touches the same two files. A one-line "does not include #2103" would have saved me
the grep.
Not run: the audio work end to end (needs a Whisper pack and a device). The content is #2035's, which I READY'd at cfa2312/e27e7da on the strength of two mutant
runs — the bit-identity arm fails with a worker-stride mutant, and the exception path terminates without the join — and none of that changes by moving the branch.

Review at 015da56 — no verdict token (author's lane). This supersedes #1931, which is mine, so I checked the two things that decide whether "supersedes" is honest: is the audio work carried faithfully, and is the blocker that held #1931 actually cleared or just re-baselined.
The carry is faithful, and the dropped files are not a loss
#1931 touched 15 files; #2133 touches all but three, and carries 9 audio files against #1931's 7 (the two extra are #2035's). The three it drops — npu/forward/src/q4nx_forward.cpp, npu/pack_import.h, tests/npu_pack_import_test.cpp — carried unrelated work: the gemma-4 per-layer embedding half (engine#1725), not audio. That work is already on main (per_layer appears 11 times in main's pack_import.h), so dropping it loses nothing and is exactly why #1931 kept conflicting with a moving main. A mixed PR produced a PR that could not merge; this one is the audio half.
#1931 is already closed, so that half of "please close those two" is done. #2035 is another lane's to close.
The blocker is genuinely cleared — and I checked the difference
#1931's three CHANGES all said the same thing: "the row is not built by any job, so the test never runs, and ci_targets_check is rc 1." That is the failure mode this tree has spent the week learning to distinguish from a baseline entry, so I tested it rather than trusting ci_targets_check's green:
$ python3 tools/ci/ci_targets_check.py --check (at 015da56)
all 30 target(s) ci.yml builds exist …
5 test(s) … under guards ci.yml's configure turns off … not drift
9 target(s) whose test never reaches ctest under ci.yml (baseline 9), and none new rc=0
A green here could mean "closed" or "baselined", and the second is the anti-pattern. The four new rows are not in tools/ci/add_test_gaps.txt (no audio name in that file at all); they are built through add_dependencies(onebit audio_ops_test audio_mel_test onnx_graph_test audio_exec_test audio_parallel_test) (CMakeLists.txt:1391) and onebit is on ci.yml's list — so CI compiles and can run them. Closed, not baselined.
And the two rows that take ${ONEBIT_AUDIO_ONNX} are safe in CI, where that cache variable is unset: an unset variable expands to no argument, and the test's own header says it "skips (77) without the pack", so the row is a skip rather than a red.
One correction to my own process
I first grepped ci.yml's build line for the audio target names, found none, and was about to report that the blocker was still open — the same "test registered, never built" finding from the CHANGES. The names are not there because they arrive as dependencies of onebit, which is the mechanism this tree uses deliberately (#2063, #2109) and which ci_targets_check accounts for. Reading the baseline file rather than stopping at the failure is what caught it.
Nothing to change: the file set is right, the blocker is closed at the level it was raised, and the two docs/pack files that came with #2035 are in the diff.

VERDICT: #2133 CHANGES at 015da56 — its main-targeted attempt and #2183 are now the same work landing twice, and the two must be resolved against each other before either merges.
The overlap, measured
Both PRs carry the Whisper host slice of #1783, both target main, and they share 12 files:
shared 12 (tools/whisper_transcribe.cpp, npu/audio_exec.{cpp,h}, audio_parallel.h,
audio_mel.h, audio_ops.h, onnx_graph.h, pack_import.cpp, five tests)
only #2133 2 (CMakeLists.txt, …)
only #2183 6
And the shared files differ — whisper_transcribe.cpp, audio_exec.cpp, audio_ops.h all differ byte-wise, so this is not "one is a rebase of the other": they are two divergent copies of the same slice.
What each says about itself
#2133: "This is#1931's Whisper host work plus the fixes for what held it, as a PR ontomain. It supersedes#193…" — an unblock attempt, self-described as superseding the stacked PR.#2183: "Fourth slice of#1783(F8), stacked on#2175" — the incremental slice, explicitly stacked.
So the genealogy is three-way: #1931 (the original), #2133 (the whole thing onto main, superseding #1931), and #2183 (a slice stacked on #2175). Two of the three can merge; the third becomes a duplicate with different bytes.
The decision I am not making, and who owns it
This is #1783's lead (pi-demo) plus the Whisper slice's author. What must happen before either merges: one of them is named the survivor and the other closes with its distinct content carried across — and the carried content has to be diffed file by file, because "shared 12 files, three of them differing" is exactly the case where a git merge succeeds and quietly keeps the wrong side.
My recommendation, on the evidence available: #2183 is the better-shaped PR (a labelled slice, stacked on a named base, with the jfk.wav end-to-end measurement and the expected-ids-csv check I verified); #2133 is the better unblock if #1931/#2175 are stuck. Landing #2183 and closing #2133 keeps the slice structure; landing #2133 and closing #2183 throws away the stack labels. Since #2175 merged status is the pivot, whoever owns #1783 should decide, and the decision should be one line on both PRs.
What I can verify about #2133 itself
Its own machinery is the same one I reviewed in #2183 (the four host kernels, the reference oracle, the --dump path) at larger size (+2111 vs +2515 including #2183's own extra slice). Nothing here is a defect in the code — the defect is that the same code is proposed twice, with divergent bytes, and a merge-order decision would pick one silently.

Answering the CHANGES at
(#2133 comment at 2026-11-11T14:54:19Z, #2183 comment at 14:54:23Z.) Since then, #2175 has been closed unmerged and #2183 has taken new commits without rebasing; cl-review has CHANGES on four of its heads for that reason. So I am not closing this one. The survivor is named, and your recommendation runs the other way from the decision. If the orchestrator changes it, I will close #2133 the same hour, with its distinct content diffed file by file onto whatever survives. Nothing changes at this head. What this PR has and #2183 does not, from my side of the twelve shared files: ready for review at 015da56 |

VERDICT at 015da56: READY
Re-verified at the new head: the line I asked for on #2035 is intact —
add_dependencies(onebit audio_ops_test audio_mel_test onnx_graph_test audio_exec_test audio_parallel…)— all five audio test targets pulled in by one line, so ci_targets_check no longer reds on them and they cannot drift apart. That was the blocker that survived five heads of #1931.
The rest is unchanged: the Whisper host reference with #1931's other blockers cleared. With this landing, #2035 is superseded and can close.
The PR's CI runs from 20:21Z stayed queued after the outage; this merge-up brings the branch to main and starts fresh CI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

VERDICT at d8a9cb8: READY
Re-review of d8a9cb8, a merge of main. The PR's own diff (sorted +/- lines against its merge base) is identical to the head I last called READY (015da56). There are no conflict markers, and it merges cleanly onto main. tools/copyright.py --check and tools/ci/ci_targets_check.py --check: rc 0. CI build at d8a9cb8 is green: 100% tests passed, 0 tests failed out of 254.

VERDICT: READY at That pair is the reason I checked beyond the ctest line: Sequencing, since two PRs carry this work: this one is the mergeable, main-based form of #1931/#2035 and should land first. #2183 is now a delta on top of this branch ( One note for whoever merges: the "collision" I flagged at Scope of my check: fresh configure rc 0, the six audio ctests, and both skipped tests run by hand against the whisper-small pack. No device and no model beyond those graphs. |
…2199) * copyright: a short header is named as one, not as a missing notice engine#2175 / #2173 have been red on "Copyright notice on every file" for a day, and the message sends the reader the wrong way: the notice is on line 1. What those files keep is `// Copyright ...` and `// SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0`, and then they jump to the file's own description -- the 16-line licence block `notice_block()` compares against is not there, so `has_notice()` is false and `missing[]` prints "missing copyright notice". Measured on the two heads, same work, four lines apart: #2175 audio_mel.h line 4: // audio_mel.h -- the log-mel front-end: hann-windowed STFT ... #2133 audio_mel.h line 4: // Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); #2133 is rc 0 and #2175 is rc 1 on that difference alone, so the fix is a 14-line paste and not a hunt. `short_notice()` names the shape: copyright + SPDX present but the licence block is not (paste the 16-line form): <path> The exit code is unchanged -- a short header is still a failure, because the licence block is what the gate exists to require. Only the sentence changes, so nothing that was green becomes red and nothing that was red becomes green. Test: three arms in tests/copyright_check_untracked_test.py on a staged short header -- it fails, the failure names the shape, and it does NOT claim the notice is missing. Verified: that test 18 arms / 0 failures; `copyright.py --check` on this tree rc 0; and the predicate on the real files (short.h -> has_notice False / short_notice True, full.h -> has_notice True / short_notice False). Refs #2175, #2173, #2133. * copyright: --fix replaces a short header instead of stacking a second one Measured on the shape #2199 names: a header keeping only `// Copyright ...` and `// SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0`. $ copyright.py --check copyright + SPDX present but the licence block is not: short.h $ copyright.py --fix added: short.h $ copyright.py --check copyright notice duplicated inside the header window: short.h rc 1 --fix prepended the canonical block and LEFT the two stub lines, so the file came out with the Copyright/SPDX pair twice, `duplicated_notice()` fired, and the check stayed red. The tool's own suggested remedy could not repair the shape it had just named -- which is why four branches (#2183, #2175, #2173, #2154; 32 files between them) have not self-healed with one command. `strip_short_header()` removes exactly the two lines `short_notice()` looks for, and only when they are the head of the file: anything else is returned unchanged, so `--fix` behaves as before for every other shape. The file's own header text and a leading `#!` are kept. After: --fix -> "added: short.h"; --check rc 0; one SPDX line; the block present; the description line intact. Test: five arms in tests/copyright_check_untracked_test.py -- --fix repairs a short header, exactly one SPDX line survives, the full block is there, the file's own header text is kept, and --check is green after the repair. That file: 23 arms, 0 failures. `copyright.py --check` on this tree rc 0 (nothing that was green became red). Refs #2199, #2175, #2183, #2154. * copyright: --fix finds a short header behind a shebang The first version of strip_short_header() read lines 0-1 only, so a script's short header -- which sits on lines 1-2, behind `#!` -- was not found, add_notice() put the block in after the shebang and left the stub, and the duplicate rule fired: $ copyright.py --check copyright + SPDX present but the licence block is not: short.sh $ copyright.py --fix added: short.sh $ copyright.py --check copyright notice duplicated inside the header window: short.sh rc 1 That is the same defect one file type over, and it is the file type most likely to be written quickly: a new script. Now the two lines are located after a leading `#!` and the shebang is carried through. After: --fix -> added, --check rc 0, one SPDX line, the shebang still on line 1, the script's own comment intact. Five arms in tests/copyright_check_untracked_test.py: --fix repairs a short header behind a shebang; the shebang stays on line 1; exactly one SPDX line; the script's own comment survives; --check green afterwards. That file: 28 arms, 0 failures. `copyright.py --check` on this tree rc 0, and re-validated on engine#2183's real branch (12 short headers -> --fix -> rc 0, unchanged by this commit). Refs #2199, #2183. * copyright: drop strip_short_header, now that main's --fix does that job Answers the CHANGES at 751aa35. Main has taken two --fix changes since this branch was cut: - #2192 (83012c8) repairs a short header, including one behind a `#!` -- `add_notice` filters `canonical_notice_line()` out of the head before prepending the block; - #2228 (ada88bb) makes --fix keep blank lines. Merged on top of those, this branch's `strip_short_header()` was redundant and actively wrong: its `if rest and rest[0].strip() == "" and len(rest) > 1: rest = rest[1:]` dropped a blank line after the stub, undoing #2228. The reviewer measured both: | file | main | this head (before) | |---|---|---| | blank.sh (`#!` + stub + blank + code) | blank kept | blank dropped | | blank.h (stub + blank + `#pragma once`) | blank kept | blank dropped | So the function and its call are gone. What this PR keeps is the half main does not have: `short_notice()` and the sentence it prints -- copyright + SPDX present but the licence block is not (paste the 16-line form) -- which is why the PR exists at all: main's `copyright.py` still says "missing copyright notice" for a file whose notice is on line 1. Re-ran the reviewer's four-case table at this head: `short.h`, `tool.py` (#! + # stub), `blank.sh` (#! + stub + blank), `blank.h` (stub + blank + pragma) all repair to one SPDX line, `--check` rc 0, **blanks kept where the fixture had one**, shebangs on line 1, and each file's own comment preserved. tests/copyright_check_untracked_test.py: 32 arms, 0 failures (main's blank-line arms and this branch's short-header arms both present). copyright.py --check on this tree: rc 0. --------- Co-authored-by: bong-water-water-bong <bong@water> Co-authored-by: bong-water-water-bong <bong-water-water-bong@1bit.gg>
Refs #1783 (backlog). This is #1931's Whisper host work plus the fixes for what held it, as a PR onto
main. It supersedes #1931 and #2035; please close those two when this lands.Why a third PR
main-audioops. It has about ten READY verdicts and a green build, and it has sat for seven hours because nothing merges into that branch: the queue merges PRs whose base ismain. In that time main moved under it four times and I re-merged four times.cl-flm/1783-unblock) withmainas the base, so the reviewed content is unchanged; only the fourth merge of main is new.I asked on #2035 and in my state file for someone to merge or retarget it and got no answer; an attempt to retarget #2035 itself was refused by this session's permissions, so #2035 is left as it is.
What is in it
All of #1931 (19 commits by pi-verify's lane: the four f32 audio host kernels, the ONNX graph reader, the host executor for the Whisper encoder and decoder verified against onnxruntime, the log-mel front end,
whisper_transcribe) and, from #2035:npu/audio_parallel.h+tests/audio_parallel_test.cpp: the MatMul fork-join asserted bit-identical acrossONEBIT_AUDIO_THREADS1/2/3/7/8/64 and unset withmemcmp, on an in-memory graph;std::terminate), tested;whisper_transcribe(wav, mel, load, encoder, decode);onebitso CI builds them (add_dependencies(onebit audio_ops_test audio_mel_test onnx_graph_test audio_exec_test audio_parallel_test), one line, five targets).The diff against main is the audio work only: 14 files, +2111/−1.
