[https://nvbugs/6702264][fix] Replaced the contiguity check with a dimension-order-agnostic…

[trtllm-agent]

Summary

• Root cause: _build_spec rejected any tensor failing is_contiguous(), but Wan VAE (loaded by Cosmos3) deliberately converts every Conv3d/Conv2d weight to channels_last_3d/channels_last — dense and non-overlapping, merely permuted — so offloading the advertised "vae" component raised ValueError at pipeline load.
• Fix: Replaced the contiguity check with a dimension-order-agnostic _is_non_overlapping_and_dense predicate, and switched the CPU writer to as_strided((numel,), (1,)) so bytes are copied in physical storage order; added a GPU-free channels_last_3d regression test asserting stride and values survive both initialize() and stage().
• Original test: pytest tests/unittest/_torch/visual_gen/test_cosmos3_t2v_offload.py::TestCosmos3Offload::test_cosmos3_offload_matches_baseline -v
• Automated fix generated by repair-bot

Test plan

• Verify fix on the same GPU type as the original failure
• Check for regressions in related tests

Dev Engineer Review

• Updated visual generation offloading to accept non-overlapping, dense tensors regardless of dimension order.
• Preserved physical storage order during CPU packing with as_strided((numel,), (1,)).
• Preserved tensor strides and values when CPU and GPU views are rebound.
• Overlapping and non-dense layouts remain unsupported.
• No public API, configuration, or test-list changes were identified.
• The implementation is focused and avoids unnecessary scope changes.

QA Engineer Review

• Added a channels-last 3D toy module and a GPU-free regression test.
• The test verifies stride and value preservation during initialize() and stage().
• Test-list coverage was not identified in test-db/ or qa/.
• Verdict: needs follow-up.

Walkthrough

Changes

Dense tensor offloading

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Dense layout validation and packing tensorrt_llm/_torch/visual_gen/offloading.py	Dense non-contiguous tensors are accepted when they are non-overlapping. CPU packing reads physical storage order to preserve their layout.
Channels-last preservation test tests/unittest/_torch/visual_gen/test_offloading.py	A channels-last 3D toy module and test verify that offloading preserves parameter strides and values.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 23d23

The change allows dense, non-overlapping channels-last tensors to be offloaded while preserving their values and layout, addressing the reported load failure without changing ownership or call boundaries. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond the routine test annotation cleanup.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title identifies the NVBugs issue, fix type, and primary change: replacing the contiguity check with a dimension-order-agnostic check. It is specific and related to the main changeset, although the visible ellipsis truncates the final phrase.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description explains the root cause, fix, regression test, test plan, and bug link. It does not use the template's exact Description and Test Coverage headings or include the full checklist, but it provides the required core information and is mostly complete.
