vllm - 💡(How to fix) Fix [vLLM IR] pre-commit script for import validation [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Implement a pre-commit script to enforce import restrictions and prevent dependencies on the rest of vLLM from within the vllm/ir directory.

Guidance

• Identify all imports from vllm (excluding vllm.logging and vllm.ir) in the vllm/ir directory to determine the scope of the issue.
• Develop a pre-commit script that checks for and prevents commits containing disallowed imports, utilizing tools like git hooks or pre-commit frameworks.
• Consider implementing a CI/CD pipeline check as an additional safety net to enforce this rule, in case the pre-commit script is bypassed.
• Review the design doc (#32358) for specific requirements and guidelines on implementing this independence.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more context, but the pre-commit script could utilize Python's ast module to parse and analyze import statements in the code.

Notes

This solution assumes that the vllm/ir directory and its dependencies are well-defined and that the pre-commit script can accurately identify and prevent disallowed imports.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement the pre-commit script as described, to enforce the independence of vLLM IR base infra and ops from the rest of vLLM, as this approach directly addresses the issue without requiring version upgrades or other external changes.
