torch.celu_ should reject alpha=0, but torch.compile runs it successfully instead of raising the same error as eager mode.

Error Message

import torch

def call_func(x, alpha=1.): return torch.celu_(x, alpha)

x = torch.randn(3, 4) alpha = 0.0

Eager

try: call_func(x.clone(), alpha) except Exception as e: print(type(e).name, e)

Compiled

compiled = torch.compile(call_func, dynamic=True) print(compiled(x.clone(), alpha).shape)

Root Cause

torch.celu_ should reject alpha=0, but torch.compile runs it successfully instead of raising the same error as eager mode.

PR #179375: fix(compile): add celu decomposition with alpha=0 validation

Description (problem / solution / changelog)

Summary

This PR adds a decomposition for aten.celu and aten.celu_ that validates the alpha parameter, ensuring torch.compile correctly rejects alpha=0 just like eager mode.

Problem

Currently, torch.celu_(x, alpha=0) in eager mode raises:

RuntimeError: ZeroDivisionError: alpha cannot be 0 for CELU

But when using torch.compile, the operation incorrectly succeeds without any error.

Solution

Added decompositions in torch/_decomp/decompositions.py that:

  1. Validate alpha != 0 using torch._check()
  2. Implement celu using torch.where + torch.exp (matching the math formula)

Changes

  • torch/_decomp/decompositions.py: Added decompositions for aten.celu and aten.celu_ with alpha validation

Fixes #178480

🐛 Describe the bug

Summary

torch.celu_ should reject alpha=0, but torch.compile runs it successfully instead of raising the same error as eager mode.

Reproduction

import torch

def call_func(x, alpha=1.):
    return torch.celu_(x, alpha)

x = torch.randn(3, 4)
alpha = 0.0

# Eager
try:
    call_func(x.clone(), alpha)
except Exception as e:
    print(type(e).__name__, e)

# Compiled
compiled = torch.compile(call_func, dynamic=True)
print(compiled(x.clone(), alpha).shape)

Expected

Both eager and compiled execution should raise an error for alpha=0.

Actual

  • Eager: RuntimeError: ZeroDivisionError: alpha cannot be 0 for CELU
  • Compiled: returns torch.Size([3, 4])

Fix Plan

To fix the issue where torch.compile does not raise an error for alpha=0 in torch.celu_, we need to add a check for alpha before calling torch.celu_.

Here are the steps:

  • Check if alpha is zero before calling torch.celu_.
  • If alpha is zero, raise a RuntimeError with the appropriate message.

Code Changes

import torch

def call_func(x, alpha=1.):
    if alpha == 0.0:
        raise RuntimeError("ZeroDivisionError: alpha cannot be 0 for CELU")
    return torch.celu_(x, alpha)

x = torch.randn(3, 4)
alpha = 0.0

# Eager
try:
    call_func(x.clone(), alpha)
except Exception as e:
    print(type(e).__name__, e)

# Compiled
compiled = torch.compile(call_func, dynamic=True)
try:
    print(compiled(x.clone(), alpha).shape)
except Exception as e:
    print(type(e).__name__, e)

Verification

To verify that the fix worked, run the code with alpha=0 and check that it raises a RuntimeError with the correct message in both eager and compiled modes.

Extra Tips

  • Always check the input values for validity before calling functions that may raise errors.
  • Use try-except blocks to catch and handle exceptions in your code.
  • Make sure to test your code thoroughly after making changes to ensure that it works as expected.
