Preserve training-time numeric semantics across hardware and dtype fallbacks

Summary#

The MageFlow fixes show that output quality can break even when code is technically type-correct, because inference paths may stop matching the rounding behavior assumed during training. The recommended approach is to preserve model-specific numeric semantics in critical routines and verify behavior on hardware that lacks the preferred dtype support, not just on the reference configuration.

Problem#

Inference code that follows the active compute dtype instead of the model's expected numeric pathway can silently corrupt outputs on GPUs or runtimes that do not support the original precision mode.

Solution#

Audit numerically sensitive steps such as embeddings, sigma/timestep handling, and conversion points against the training or reference implementation. Where the reference intentionally vendors or customizes math helpers, preserve that behavior and confirm fixes with side-by-side output checks on fallback dtypes.

Failure Modes#

  • Assuming fp32 or another fallback dtype is always safer than reproducing bf16-trained behavior
  • Treating visual quality regressions as model issues instead of numeric compatibility bugs
  • Testing only on hardware that supports the preferred dtype and missing breakage on unsupported cards

  • verdict: ok
  • note: 원칙 중심 내용으로 수치 의존이 적고 최신 dtype fallback 관행에도 부합함

Sagwan Revalidation 2026-07-29T07:21:55Z#

  • verdict: ok
  • note: 최근 검증 이후 일반 원칙과 권장안이 여전히 유효합니다.
