Summary

  • cache generated PyTorch/PT2 and JAX SavedModel fixtures used by the C++ test suite
  • reuse generated fixtures only on an exact cache hit, with a manifest check to reject partial caches
  • include generated .pth, .pt2, .pte, .expected, and .savedmodel artifacts
  • scope native PT2/TorchInductor caches by OS/arch, CPU ISA flags, glibc, compiler, build variant, and fixture-source fingerprint
  • avoid broad restore-key fallbacks so native artifacts are never reused across incompatible runner environments
  • cache the TorchInductor directory with the same native/source scoping

Self-hosted runners

The regular C++ jobs in deepmodeling use the cpu self-hosted runner label. This is compatible with the cache design: heterogeneous runners are separated by the native-environment fingerprint, while a stable self-hosted machine should get better cache reuse. The compiler fingerprint is computed after the workflow's GCC installation step.

Validation

  • git diff --check passes
  • cold-cache C++ generation/build/CTest completed successfully in the fork (4/4 CTest targets passed)
  • LSAN C++ job also completed successfully on the current branch
  • one fork-hosted regular LAMMPS pytest execution was externally terminated with exit 143; no DeepMD/LAMMPS assertion or exception was reported, and the existing upstream retry_on_sigterm.sh specifically handles this hosted-runner transient

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Improved reliability of PyTorch-enabled test runs by reusing valid generated fixtures and caches.
    • Added checks to detect missing, empty, or incomplete cached fixtures before testing.
    • Improved support for CUDA-specific test fixture generation.
    • Separated cached results by relevant environment settings for more consistent test outcomes.
  • Chores

    • Added content-based tracking for generated test fixtures.
    • Ensured fixture lists remain consistently ordered and stale files are removed when regeneration is needed.

Cache all generated PyTorch fixture formats, including .pth files required when generator execution is skipped on a cache hit. Scope PT2 and TorchInductor native-code caches to the runner CPU/toolchain fingerprint and remove unsafe prefix fallback reuse.

Avoid invalidating the expensive generated PT/JAX C++ fixtures when unrelated source/tests/infer or backend code changes. Fingerprint only the generator scripts and committed inputs plus the Python/backend/custom-op code that can affect those generated artifacts.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to bedaf

The cache reuses only exact matches, validates required artifacts, and regenerates conversion-specific SavedModels before tests; no merge-blocking risk is established.

Reviewed the full two-file change set and the current C++ workflow behavior. The cache design is generally conservative: fixture/TorchInductor restores use exact keys, native PT2 reuse is scoped by ISA/libc/compiler/build variant plus source content, the restored file manifest is checked before generation is skipped, and the generated SavedModel directories that are not represented as manifest files receive explicit existence checks. I did not find a current functional blocker in the cold-cache path.

Two things keep this at COMMENT / needs validation rather than a final approval disposition. First, the exact-head Test C++ run is still in progress (Test Python, CodeQL, and package/PyPI are also still running). More importantly for this PR specifically, pt-cxx-fixtures-v4 is a new cache namespace, so the current exact-head run is necessarily exercising the cold-cache path; the newly introduced DP_REUSE_GENERATED_PT_MODELS=1 cache-hit branch has not yet been exercised by this PR's CI. A warm rerun after the cache is saved is the relevant end-to-end validation for the behavior being added.

One concrete cache-invalidation hardening point: source_fingerprint does not include source/install/test_cc_local.sh, even though that script determines which gen_*.py producers run and under what conditions. A future change that only alters this orchestration can therefore restore an old exact source key and skip the changed generation flow. Including source/install/test_cc_local.sh (and, if desired, other generation-orchestration inputs) in the fingerprint would close that gap. I am treating this as a hardening recommendation rather than a blocker for the current cold-cache head because the v4 namespace is new here.

This PR is authored by njzjz-bot, which is also the executing GitHub account, so GitHub will not accept a self-APPROVE/REQUEST_CHANGES from this account. After relevant CI plus a warm-cache run pass, the final approval must come from an independent reviewer/account.

Re-reviewed the complete two-file change at the new head. The cache-invalidation gap from the previous round is fixed: source/install/test_cc_local.sh is now included in source_fingerprint, so changes to the fixture-generation orchestrator invalidate both the generated-fixture and TorchInductor cache keys. I also checked the new manifest lifecycle: cold runs record generated .pt2/.pte/.expected files, the workflow adds generated .pth files before cache save, cache hits reject missing manifest entries, and the generated SavedModel directories are checked separately. I did not find a new high-confidence correctness blocker in this revision.

This remains COMMENT / needs validation rather than an approval disposition for two reasons. First, exact-head CI is still incomplete: Test CUDA, Build C++, Build C library, and package/PyPI are green, while Test C++, Test Python, and CodeQL are still running. Second, because adding test_cc_local.sh to source_fingerprint changes the exact cache key for this head, the current C++ run is necessarily a cold-cache run; the DP_REUSE_GENERATED_PT_MODELS=1 cache-hit branch still needs a subsequent run on this same head to demonstrate the warm-cache path end to end.

The PR is authored by njzjz-bot, which is also the executing GitHub account, so a final APPROVE/REQUEST_CHANGES cannot be submitted by this account; once the validation above is complete, final approval must come from an independent reviewer/account.

Follow-up on the same reviewed head now that the pending checks have finished: the exact-head Build C++, Test C++, Test Python, Test CUDA, Build C library, CodeQL, and package/PyPI workflows are all completed successfully. I rechecked the current head before submitting this disposition, and it remains bedaf3a3e322ad22822f569a5de23655303ac1ab.

I still would not treat the new cache behavior as fully validated yet. The Test C++ workflow for this head is run attempt 1, and this head changed the fixture source fingerprint/cache key by adding source/install/test_cc_local.sh. That means the successful run is the cold-cache population path; there is still no same-head PR-triggered Test C++ rerun demonstrating that the restored cache passes the manifest checks and actually exercises DP_REUSE_GENERATED_PT_MODELS=1 end to end. Since cache-hit reuse is the main behavior introduced by this PR, a warm rerun is the remaining validation I would want before an independent reviewer approves it.

No new code-level blocker was found beyond that validation gap. This PR is authored by the executing GitHub account (njzjz-bot), so this account also cannot provide the eventual independent APPROVE.
