…nse profile Add a sibling `qwen3-for-causal-lm-bf16-tied-target-v1` post-transform profile for tied Qwen3 checkpoints. It has its own transform-layout ABI, `trtllm-qwen3-dense-tied-target-layout-v1`, and runtime constraints that pin `tied_word_embeddings` to True. The untied Qwen3 profile, its ABI and the shared dense constraints are unchanged. Tests cover the tied tiny Qwen3 lifecycle at TP1 and on both TP2 ranks, with a receiver that gets only the MX tensor catalog, the catalog itself, staged finalization, tie scoping across the dense roots, the tied profile's rejected runtime variants, ABI pairing under every identity policy, real-model SourceIdentity separation, and a CUDA test through the real meta-init `ModelLoader.load()` path that keeps the shared table in one allocation.

…declared flag `PostTransformRuntimeConfig.from_model_config` now checks the declared `tie_word_embeddings` flag against a constructed model. The flag counts only when the model's one `lm_head` weight and one `embed_tokens` weight are the same tensor, or identical views of the same memory, exactly when the flag says they are. Otherwise the dimension is unknown, and every profile that constrains it rejects the load. The check never raises. Signed-off-by: Michal Guzek <mguzek@nvidia.com>
Add `qwen3-tied-bf16-tp1` to the post-merge 2-GPU block and `qwen3-tied-bf16-tp2` to the on-demand 4-GPU block. Both load the tied Qwen3-4B checkpoint, with the `TRTLLM_MX_QWEN3_TIED_MODEL` override, and the qualification-test docs name them. Signed-off-by: Michal Guzek <mguzek@nvidia.com>
The donor/receiver test now requires that no receiver rank's RDMA completion record moves more tensors or bytes than the distinct parameter views in that rank's transfer manifest. A storage shared by several parameters, such as a tied LM head, must therefore cross the wire once. Empty parameters count once each, so the bound never rejects ModelExpress merging them under the null data pointer. Signed-off-by: Michal Guzek <mguzek@nvidia.com>

- Files modified:
tests/unittest/_torch/weight_sharing/test_mx_harness_artifacts.pytests/integration/defs/model_express/test_model_express.pytests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_model_express.yml- Test cases added:

- Aliased non-empty storage counts once.
- Empty parameters count individually.
- The tensor-count limit and the byte limit each fail the check when exceeded.
- The real E2E rows call
assert_transfer_within_manifestsafter the manifest checks.- Test-list coverage:
l0_model_express.ymllistsqwen3-tied-bf16-tp2in the 4-GPU pre-merge group.- It lists
qwen3-tied-bf16-tp1in the 2-GPU post-merge group.- Both selectors match the new parameter ids.
- Verdict: sufficient. I found no assertion that can pass silently, no flaky pattern, and no missing capability gate.

Description
Every ModelExpress (MX) post-transform profile pinned
tied_word_embeddingstoFalse, so tied Qwen3 checkpoints (Qwen3-0.6B, Qwen3-1.7B, Qwen3-4B, Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507) always fell back to Hugging Face loading. This PR qualifies them through a sibling Qwen3 profile, with Qwen3-4B as the canary.Sibling profile with its own ABI. A new exact profile,
qwen3-for-causal-lm-bf16-tied-target-v1, sits next to the untiedqwen3-for-causal-lm-bf16-target-v1. It uses a new immutable transform-layout ABI,trtllm-qwen3-dense-tied-target-layout-v1, and its constraints are the Qwen3 BF16 dense constraints withtied_word_embeddingspinned to{True}. The untied profile, its ABI and the shared dense constraints are unchanged, so existing untied publications stay byte-identical, and PR 3's FP8 Qwen3 sibling, which derives from the untied constraints, cannot inherit the tie. The registry already accepts several profiles per root as long as their runtime constraints are disjoint. When a run matches none of them, it reports the closest profile, and the untied one wins ties because it is listed first.Why the ABI is not reused:
model-express.mdlist both as reasons for a new ID, and [TRTLLM-14880][feat] qualify Qwen3 dense for MX #17142 created the Qwen3 ID for an untied head.IdentityCheckPolicy.ENFORCE,SourceIdentitycompares only the format version and the ABI (source_identity.py, ENFORCE path), so the model and shard fingerprints that carry the tie are skipped. With a shared ABI, a tied source and an untied receiver could pair under ENFORCE. A separate ABI keeps them apart under every policy; the new tests check this.No model change.
DecoderModelForCausalLM.__init__already makeslm_head.weightan alias ofmodel.embed_tokens.weightwhen the config ties them, after asserting that both use the same TP size and mode. This happens on every role, before qualification, beforeSourceIdentityand before MX discovers tensors.setup_aliases()plays no part. ModelExpress 0.5.1 builds its tensor catalog fromnamed_parameters(remove_duplicate=False), skips runtime aliases and keeps the first name per(device, data_ptr), so the shared table is registered, published and received once, asmodel.embed_tokens.weight. On the real loader path, meta-init_applyleaveslm_headandembed_tokensas two Parameter objects over one memoized allocation (torch 2.14), so every check in this PR compares memory, never object identity.Realized-tie check (separate commit).
PostTransformRuntimeConfig.from_model_config(..., model=...)now accepts the declaredtie_word_embeddingsflag only when the constructed model has exactly onelm_headand oneembed_tokensweight, and those weights are the same tensor (or identical views of the same memory) exactly when the flag says so. Otherwise the dimension isNone, and every profile, all of which constrain the tie, rejects the load. A config flag therefore cannot claim a tie that the model lacks, or hide one that it has. The helper is duck-typed, never raises, and leaves the declared value unchanged when no model is passed. The reviewed outline deferred this check to the Qwen3.5 PR, where composite configs make the top-level flag less trustworthy. It is kept here as its own commit, so it can be dropped without touching the rest.E2E rows and CI.
qwen3-tied-bf16-tp1goes in the post-merge 2-GPU block andqwen3-tied-bf16-tp2in the on-demand 4-GPU block, both onQwen3/Qwen3-4Bwith theTRTLLM_MX_QWEN3_TIED_MODELoverride.lm_head.weight, so any accidental head load or transfer fails loudly.RDMA transfer completerecord moves more tensors or bytes than the distinct parameter views in that rank's transfer manifest. Without this, CI would stay green if the shared table crossed the wire twice. Empty parameters count once each, so the bound never fails when MX merges them under the null data pointer.Docs.
