| """Padding-aligned GRPO trainer for the pinned TRL 1.9.1 + Qwen3.5-VL stack. |
| |
| TRL 1.9.1's ``GRPOTrainer._generate_and_score_completions`` builds the |
| multimodal forward inputs for a VLM batch from *two* separate processor calls |
| that pad on opposite sides: |
| |
| * ``prompt_ids`` come from ``_tokenize_prompts`` and are later left-padded |
| (``padding_side="left"``) so the causal model can decode from the right edge. |
| * ``mm_token_type_ids`` and ``image_grid_thw`` come from a second call |
| ``processing_class(images=..., text=..., padding=True)`` whose Qwen processor |
| pads on the **right**. |
| |
| For a batch whose prompts have unequal token lengths the two tensors no longer |
| describe the same columns: the image markers in ``mm_token_type_ids`` sit at |
| different positions than the real image-pad tokens in the left-padded |
| ``prompt_completion_ids``. ``Qwen3_5VLForConditionalGeneration.get_rope_index`` |
| then groups the (misaligned) ``mm_token_type_ids``, consumes a full |
| ``image_grid_thw`` entry for a *partial* image-marker run, and produces an |
| ``llm_positions`` tensor whose column count exceeds the non-padded token count |
| of the row — raising:: |
| |
| RuntimeError: shape mismatch: value tensor of shape [3, 929] cannot be |
| broadcast to indexing result of shape [3, 613] |
| |
| The crash is data- and batch-composition-dependent: equal-length batches pad |
| trivially and run; a heterogeneous batch (different image patch counts / prompt |
| lengths) misaligns and crashes. The same misalignment can also fail *silently*, |
| dropping an image's vision positions entirely (text-only fallback) without |
| raising. |
| |
| The fix recomputes ``mm_token_type_ids`` from the actual ``input_ids`` that |
| reach the model: every image-pad token marks a vision position, every other |
| token marks a text position. This is exactly the construction TRL already uses |
| for the tool-image path (``grpo_trainer.py`` ~line 2524), ported to the |
| non-tool path. Because ``input_ids`` is the left-padded |
| ``prompt_completion_ids`` itself, the rebuilt marker tensor is aligned to it by |
| construction, regardless of how the second processor call padded. Only the |
| per-token marker tensor is rewritten; ``pixel_values``, ``image_grid_thw``, |
| ``num_images``, prompts, completions, masks, and the rollout are untouched, so |
| vLLM generation (which uses its own path) and all sampling are unchanged — this |
| is a correctness fix to the training forward, not a hyperparameter. |
| |
| The override lives on a single shared base so every controlled RL arm |
| (``grpo``, ``papo_controlled``, ``evi_po``) inherits it. |

| |
| TRL 1.9.1's colocate + sleep_mode generate path calls |
| ``self.llm.collective_rpc("reload_weights")`` every step as a workaround |
| for vLLM issue #29341 (weights going stale after ``sleep``/``wake_up``). |
| On CUDA + vLLM 0.25.1 this disk reload leaks file/mmap handles: the |
| per-step "Loading safetensors checkpoint shards" duration grows |
| exponentially (~0.7s -> ~12s over ~30 steps around step 2900) and |
| hard-hangs after ~2900 sleep/wake cycles, which is fatal for the 5750-step |
| main/ablation runs (the stall is deterministic -- every retry replays the |
| same batch and re-trips the leak). |
| |
| The reload is redundant here. ``sync_weights`` already pushes the merged |
| LoRA weights into vLLM every step via ``load_weights`` |
| (``_push_param_to_vllm``), and ``wake_up(tags=["weights"])`` restores the |
| weight-memory mapping. That push+wake path is exactly what TRL falls back |
| to on backends that do not implement ``reload_weights`` (the |
| ``except NotImplementedError`` branch in ``generate``), so skipping the |
| disk reload on CUDA is equivalent to that already-supported fallback and |
| keeps the rolled-out weights correct every step. |
| |
| ``collective_rpc`` is invoked exactly once in TRL's vLLM generation module |
