[Bugfix][Spec Decode] Resolve n_predict from text_config for Qwen3.5 multimodal MTP - #55369
Conversation
…multimodal MTP In Qwen3.5/3.6 multimodal wrapper checkpoints (such as Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B and Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B), mtp_num_hidden_layers is located in text_config rather than directly on the outer wrapper config. SpeculativeConfig.hf_config_override previously inspected only hf_config, leaving n_predict as None and breaking downstream speculative decoding defaults and divisibility checks. This patch: 1. Extracts text_config via get_hf_text_config(hf_config) with fallback. 2. Resolves mtp_num_hidden_layers from hf_config or text_config. 3. Adds unit test coverage for multimodal wrapper checkpoints. Fixes vllm-project#55322 Signed-off-by: SOUMYAJIT GHOSH <23051387@kiit.ac.in>

Thanks for taking this on — I filed #55322. The change matches what the issue proposed (top-level first, text_config fallback), keeps the text-only path from #50734, and yields the same architectures.
Ran it on a vLLM main nightly (0.28.1rc1.dev383+g8a0a7ee40; it also applies cleanly to main @ 28e605f), pytest 9.1.1, transformers 5.16.1: tests/models/test_qwen3_5_mtp_config.py 8/8, with the two wrapper cases failing on unpatched main (assert None == 2). hf_config_override on Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B and a local W4A16 build: n_predict is None on main and 1 with the patch. The divisibility guard becomes live: text_config.mtp_num_hidden_layers=2 with num_speculative_tokens=3 constructs silently on main and raises must be divisible by n_predict=2 with the patch.
Suggest dropping the try/except AttributeError. get_hf_text_config raises only ValueError (the num_attention_heads check), and PreTrainedConfig.get_text_config() with decoder=None, encoder=None raises only ValueError — there is no AttributeError path for a stock config. The same call runs unguarded a few lines later anyway (patch_rope_parameters(config.get_text_config()) right after hf_overrides_fn, then get_hf_text_config in config/model.py), so anything caught here re-raises immediately, and if it ever fired it would substitute an unvalidated text_config — the narrower form of what CodeRabbit flagged. The qwen4_exp_mtp branch earlier in the function calls it bare. If you want to keep the fall-through for an explicit top-level None, two plain lines do it:
text_config = get_hf_text_config(hf_config)
n_predict = getattr(hf_config, "mtp_num_hidden_layers", None)
if n_predict is None:
n_predict = getattr(text_config, "mtp_num_hidden_layers", None)Suggest wiring the test into CI: nothing in .buildkite/ collects tests/models/test_qwen3_5_mtp_config.py, so it won't run even after /ci run; models/qwen4_exp/test_config.py is listed in .buildkite/test_areas/models_basic.yaml and this file could sit next to it.
Two description nits. (a) "broke or failed" overstates it: nothing crashes today, the guard is silently a no-op, and released Qwen3.5-family checkpoints ship mtp_num_hidden_layers = 1, for which it is vacuous. (b) num_speculative_tokens defaulting is not restored by this PR alone: vllm serve on a Qwen3.6-35B-A3B checkpoint with --speculative-config '{"method":"mtp"}' fails at startup exactly as unpatched main does (num_speculative_tokens must be provided with speculative model unless ...), because with the count omitted the self-draft derivation is skipped before n_predict is ever read; with an explicit "model" the None > 1 comparison fails first. That is #55323, which your #55362 fixes — stacked, the same command starts with num_spec_tokens=1. Also, the body names test_top_level_mtp_overrides_nested_text_config; the file defines test_mtp_override_top_level_precedence_over_nested_text_config.

Thanks for the thorough review and testing across the checkpoints @twu3202! Updated in commit 7a5723a:
text_config = get_hf_text_config(hf_config)
n_predict = getattr(hf_config, "mtp_num_hidden_layers", None)
if n_predict is None:
n_predict = getattr(text_config, "mtp_num_hidden_layers", None)

Thanks — 7a5723a covers all three points: get_hf_text_config(hf_config) called unguarded with the top-level mtp_num_hidden_layers still taking precedence (same shape as the qwen4_exp_mtp branch), the test wired into basic-models-test-other-cpu, and the test name fixed in the description. The diff applies to main @ dc02934 alone and on top of #55362, and the pinned mypy 1.20.2 is clean on the file.
Re-ran the same checks as above on the main nightly (0.28.1rc1.dev383, pytest 9.1.1, transformers 5.16.1): tests/models/test_qwen3_5_mtp_config.py 8/8 (unpatched: the two wrapper cases fail); on the local Qwen3.6-35B-A3B W4A16 build n_predict resolves to 1, the divisibility guard rejects num_speculative_tokens=3 against a synthetic n_predict=2 draft and accepts 4; and with #55362 stacked, vllm serve <build> --speculative-config '{"method":"mtp"}' starts with num_spec_tokens=1 and speculates. With this PR alone the no-count form still fails at the None > 1 comparison, as noted above — that half is #55362. LGTM.

Pin the checkpoint revisions.
Both AutoConfig.from_pretrained calls follow the default main revision. An upstream configuration change can alter architectures or mtp_num_hidden_layers without a repository change. Pass an immutable model commit SHA through revision= in both calls.
