📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

These changes add conditional architectural paths to the Eagle3 speculative model based on configuration flags. A new next_layer_regular parameter controls conditional QKV projection construction in Eagle3Attention. Eagle3DraftModel now derives configuration flags that determine various behaviors including layer normalization application, projection placement, and hidden state return strategies.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Change Summary
Eagle3 Conditional Architecture Modifications
tensorrt_llm/_torch/models/modeling_speculative.py
Eagle3Attention: Added next_layer_regular parameter to conditionally construct qkv_proj. Eagle3DecoderLayer: Added is_first_layer parameter and conditional input_layernorm creation based on next_layer_regular flag; modified forward path concatenation logic. Eagle3DraftModel: Derives eagle_config from pretrained config, computes _eh_proj_before_attn and _return_hidden_post_norm flags, determines _next_layer_regular based on config and layer position, introduces optional pre-attention projection path (eh_proj_before_attn), extends forward to conditionally return hidden states after normalization.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 3 (Moderate) | ⏱️ ~20 minutes

  • Eagle3Attention qkv_proj conditional construction: Verify that the next_layer_regular flag correctly gates module creation and that weights are properly initialized only when constructed.
  • Eagle3DecoderLayer layer normalization logic: Ensure is_first_layer correctly propagates to control input_layernorm creation and that the forward concatenation path correctly applies normalization when applicable.
  • Eagle3DraftModel configuration derivation: Confirm that eagle_config extraction and flag computation (_eh_proj_before_attn, _return_hidden_post_norm, _next_layer_regular) are correctly derived and passed through the layer stack.
  • Double-return hidden states path: Verify that the conditional _return_hidden_post_norm flag correctly triggers the (hidden_states, hidden_states) return in both draft and base paths.
  • Pre-attention projection flow: Confirm the optional eh_proj_before_attn path is correctly instantiated and applied before attention when enabled.

33-37: Confirm QKV projection behavior for next_layer_regular=True vs False

Eagle3Attention now only overrides self.qkv_proj when self._next_layer_regular is False, otherwise it uses the base Attention QKV (with hidden-size input) instead of the EAGLE3-style 2×hidden-size input and FUSED_QKV_LINEAR weight mode. This changes both the expected input shape and the weight loading/quantization behavior between “regular” and non-regular layers.

Please double‑check that:

  • All call sites feeding this attention respect the two possible input shapes (hidden vs 2×hidden).
  • The weight mapping correctly handles the different qkv_proj shapes/modes between regular and non‑regular layers, especially when sharing weights with the target model.

If this dichotomy is intentional, consider a brief comment here explaining the two regimes (_next_layer_regular vs non‑regular) for future readers.

Also applies to: 57-70


79-90: Verify _next_layer_regular logic and embedding concatenation semantics

_next_layer_regular is computed as:

self._next_layer_regular = (eagle_config.get("next_layer_regular", True)
                            and not is_first_layer) or eagle_config.get(
                                "eh_proj_before_attn", False)

and then:

  • input_layernorm and the [embeds, hidden_states] concatenation are only used when not self._next_layer_regular.
  • Eagle3Attention’s QKV override is likewise gated on not self._next_layer_regular.

This implies:

  • The first decoder layer always uses the EAGLE3 2×hidden-size attention path when eh_proj_before_attn is False, regardless of next_layer_regular.
  • When eh_proj_before_attn is True, all layers behave as “regular” (no concat, regular QKV).

That seems plausible but is quite subtle. Please verify that this matches the intended architecture (especially whether configs are ever expected to make the first layer “regular”), and that for all eagle_config combinations:

  • embeds and hidden_states have matching last-dimension sizes when concatenated.
  • The chosen attention QKV shape matches the concatenated vs non‑concatenated input.

If this logic is correct, a short comment near the _next_layer_regular assignment clarifying these cases would help avoid future regressions.

Also applies to: 106-109, 130-132


80-80: Fix __init__ return type annotation

Eagle3DecoderLayer.__init__ is annotated as returning Tuple[torch.Tensor, torch.Tensor], but __init__ must always return None in Python. This will confuse type checkers and IDEs.

Consider changing the signature to:

-    ) -> Tuple[torch.Tensor, torch.Tensor]:
+    ) -> None:

163-171: Pre‑attention eh_proj_before_attn path: check shapes and module choice

The new eagle_config["eh_proj_before_attn"] path introduces:

  • self.enorm: RMSNorm(hidden_size)
  • self.eh_proj: nn.Linear(2 * hidden_size, hidden_size, dtype=config.torch_dtype)
  • Forward logic that normalizes inputs_embeds, concatenates with hidden_states, then projects back to hidden_size.

Points to verify:

  • For all supported configs, both inputs_embeds and hidden_states indeed have last dimension config.hidden_size at this point, so the concat produces exactly 2 * hidden_size as expected.
  • This pre‑attention fusion is performed exactly once where intended (i.e., not re‑applied inside the decoder layers due to _next_layer_regular gating).

Also, most of this file uses the custom Linear wrapper for tensor parallelism and quantization, while eh_proj uses nn.Linear directly. If this projection is performance‑critical or should participate in TP/quant, consider switching it to Linear with appropriate WeightsLoadingConfig; otherwise, documenting that this is intentionally a non‑TP/non‑quantized helper would clarify the design.

Also applies to: 204-212, 258-262


178-179: Clarify _return_hidden_post_norm contract and call‑site expectations

The new _return_hidden_post_norm flag changes the Eagle3DraftModel.forward return from:

hidden_states, hidden_states_to_save = self.norm(hidden_states, residual)
if self._return_hidden_post_norm:
    return hidden_states, hidden_states
return hidden_states, hidden_states_to_save

Callers now may receive either (post_norm, post_norm) or (post_norm, something_else) depending on config.

Please ensure that:

  • All current call sites consuming the second tensor (if any) can handle both behaviors and are keyed off the same eagle_config["return_hidden_post_norm"] flag.
  • The semantics of hidden_states_to_save when _return_hidden_post_norm is False remain consistent with what SpecMetadata.get_hidden_states() / the pyexecutor expect.

A brief docstring or comment describing what “post_norm” vs “to_save” represents, and when configs should enable this flag, would make the behavior much clearer.

Also applies to: 280-284
