Gaétan Lepage | * 🔥 PyTorch 2.10.0 (+ triton 3.6.0) 🔥
Changelog: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/releases/tag/v2.10.0
PR: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/484881
PR tracker: https://nixpkgs-tracker.ocfox.me/?pr=484881
This one took quite a while to bring to nixpkgs, and I'm glad to have finally gotten it merged!
Some basic testing has been done (basic builds, cudaSupport builds, some gpuChecks).
However, exhaustively building and testing all the downstream dependencies isn't feasible (at least without more time and hardware).
-> Please, don't hesitate to report any breakage in this channel, and feel free to ping me as well.
Thanks a lot to everyone who helped, and more generally to everyone else for your patience. | 23:32:32 |

Hugo | Related to PyTorch but not to 2.10, it looks like my CI cannot build it since yesterday morning (it was still python3.13-torch-2.9.1) 🤔 Torch 2.10.0 does not solve that issue.
I build with:
run: "cd nixpkgs-master\n nix-build -I nixpkgs=. --arg config '{ allowUnfree\
\ = true; cudaSupport = true; openclSupport = true; rocmSupport = false;}'\
\ --option allow-import-from-derivation false --max-jobs 1 -A python313Packages.torch"
Here is the last part of my build log (after 3h12 of build). https://pad.lassul.us/s/xWhnOmbeo2#
Any idea what could be the cause?

Gaétan Lepage | Are you sure that you're not simply OOMing? | 19:43:36 |
Hugo | I investigated my metrics, it looks like OOM-ing for 2.10, but not for the latest failure of 2.9.1 🤔 | 20:28:31 |
Hugo | I started a build with less cores, will see where that goes (mostl likely from 3.10 to ~5 hours) | 20:29:13 |

Theuni | Gaétan Lepage: if you need help testing the vllm 0.16 branch, i can do that. | 07:27:08 |
Gaétan Lepage | Hi! Thanks :)
I rebased the PR yesterday: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/490175
I couldn't do much as its dependendency xgrammar is broken. Once I'll properly bump the {c,q}utlass et al. overrides, then sure, help with testing will be welcome :) | 07:57:01 |
Gaétan Lepage | From my initial testing, 2.10 is significantly heavier to build.
Took me >1h instead of 45 min to build with cudaSupport on a 64T Threadripper | 07:58:09 |

Gaétan Lepage | RE: vllm update to 0.16.0
Although vllm 0.16.0 was initially depending on torch==2.10.0, this changed.
Indeed, upstream force-pushed the tag to revert this change and go back to requiring torch==2.9.1.
I learnt about this by chance, discussing this wis a coworker. | 10:28:07 |

kaya 𖤐 | Not sure if it's been mentioned here before but, for anyone affected by flash-attn builds OOM-ing. I noticed an upstream patch that tries to counter it https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention/pull/2079
Might be possible to apply it to the nix package 🤔 | 13:26:33 |
