Description

Support batched right-padded GQA chunks and populated idle entries (query_seqlens[b] = 0) on CPU and CUDA, including single-token steps. Skip padded preprocessing and attention work while preserving physical tensor strides and the sliding-window history needed by the first valid query in each chunk.

This follows #33503 and #33505, both already merged. Other execution providers continue to reject query_seqlens; the legacy multi-token/past-context batch restriction remains when the input is absent.

Summary of Changes

Length semantics and correctness

  • Accept 0 <= Q[b] <= min(S, T[b]) with T[b] >= 1. An idle entry keeps its absolute total and cache unchanged. Initially empty idle entries remain unsupported.
  • Honor explicit lengths at S = 1, rather than treating every entry as active.
  • Fix CPU flash dispatch for equal resident totals but different past lengths: the causal offset cannot be shared in that case.
  • Preserve staging/eviction behavior: eviction must not discard the preceding W - 1 positions needed by the first token of a chunk.
  • Clarify that total_sequence_length bounds absolute totals, not windowed cache capacity.

CPU

  • Bound unpack/transpose, RoPE, FP16 conversion, naive QK/softmax/SV and MLAS flash query work by the valid row count.
  • Keep padded physical strides for head, batch, output and bias addressing.
  • Skip idle attention while preserving required past-cache copies for separately allocated outputs.
  • Cover FP32/FP16 inputs and INT8/INT4 caches; retain default MLAS behavior when valid query counts are not supplied.

CUDA

  • Guard padding before Q/K/V loads, QK-Norm, RoPE, quantization and cache append.
  • Skip idle aliased-cache staging seed/copy-back and unused ungroup/dequantization rows.
  • Bound FlashAttention/MEA query tiles and output stores by device-side valid lengths.
  • Skip padded unfused softmax/output rows and use masked V scratch to avoid 0 * NaN contamination from unused cache rows. Include that scratch in runtime and bounded workspace calculations.
  • Bypass XQA, fast Flash decode and cuDNN SDPA with explicit query lengths because those paths do not represent idle query entries. No host synchronization is added to inspect query lengths.

Remaining work: unfused CUDA cuBLAS QK/SV GEMMs still use dense physical query dimensions. Partially filled fused tiles retain tile-granular arithmetic. Scratch allocations and upstream Q/K/V projection nodes are not made ragged by this change.

Regression coverage and documentation

  • Replay prompts [513, 1025] with S = W = 512, CPU cache capacity 1023 and CUDA capacity 512:

    Chunk Valid queries Absolute totals
    1 [512, 512] [512, 512]
    2 [1, 512] [513, 1024]
    3 [0, 1] [513, 1025]
  • Compare valid outputs and resident caches with independent unpadded single-entry full-cache calls. Include all-idle chunks, idle decode, resumed decode, mixed first/continuation entries, additional eviction, and equal-total/different-past cases.

  • Poison padded Q/K/V and unused floating-cache rows with NaNs. Prebind sentinel outputs and verify padded rows are not written. The sentinel check is an optimization regression, not a new public padding-output guarantee.

  • Exercise packed/unpacked inputs, RoPE, FP16/BF16 CUDA, FP32/FP16 CPU, and INT8/INT4 caches.

  • Assert native FlashAttention/MEA/math dispatch without CPU fallback, exercise MEA large-head accumulation, and replay CUDA graphs while changing device query lengths.

  • Update operator schema, generated operator documentation and CPU/CUDA guides.

Testing

Validated locally on H200 with CUDA 13 using the existing incremental build and feature-source overlays:

  • Rebuilt Python runtime, CPU/MLAS, CUDA provider and provider-test targets, including dependent FlashAttention/MEA translation units. Verified compiled feature-source and staged-provider parity.
  • GQA C++ suite: 123 passed, 14 skipped (137 tests).
  • Focused MEA/unfused workspace GTests: 23 passed. Both changed workspace test files compile; additional standalone layout/bounds checks passed. The main build has CUDA EP internal tests disabled, so the complete estimator/internal-test suite was not run.
  • Targeted Python query-length/windowed suites: 112 passed, 2 skipped, plus 148 passing subtests.
  • Final new optimization suite rerun: 36 passed, plus 48 passing subtests, including all three CUDA-graph backends.
  • Independent NumPy-oracle replay: 96 CPU calls and 156 CUDA calls passed; CUDA dispatch verified for FlashAttention, MEA, math and automatic selection.
  • All configured lintrunner checks and git diff --check passed.

The CPU output-sentinel test was also run before optimization and reproduced padded output writes for both flash settings and both cache-alias modes.

Checklist

  • CPU and CUDA changes included
  • Regression tests added/updated
  • Existing no-input behavior and other-EP rejection retained
  • Documentation and backend limitations updated

Enable batched and idle explicit query lengths while preserving sliding-window history. Bound CPU/CUDA preprocessing and supported attention paths by valid queries, fix CPU flash causal offsets, and add replay, padding-work, graph-capture and workspace coverage.

Full review: changes recommended

Reviewed 22c72f5 → 8c632c8 (37 files) with Readability, Code, Critical, Deep, and Integration reviewers. Actual reviewer models were verified. One confirmed Major finding; no additional core implementation defect was established.

Findings ledger

ID Severity Raised by Finding Disposition
F1 Major Lead, Code Reviewer New CUDA tests lack a PyTorch CUDA-availability guard and fail Windows CI Confirmed

F1 — Skip CUDA tests when PyTorch has no CUDA support

Locations: test_gqa.py:5560–5561, 5602–5603.

has_sdpa_kernel("MATH") returns True before checking torch.cuda.is_available(). An ORT build exposing the CUDA EP with CPU-only PyTorch therefore enters these new tests and fails when allocating CUDA tensors, without exercising attention.

This is already demonstrated by the Windows CUDA test job at the reviewed head: five new MATH cases fail with AssertionError: Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled—the CUDA-graph MATH case and all four windowed-idle MATH cases.

Minimal fix: Add a torch.cuda.is_available() skip guard to both CUDA test methods, or move that check ahead of the MATH return in the shared helper after checking its callers. Do not skip the entire class, since it also contains CPU tests. Confidence: high.

Non-blocking open questions

  • Critical Reviewer: The new H512 MEA test's shared-memory feasibility on SM86 was not verified. There is insufficient evidence to assert a failure; a shape-specific hardware run would resolve this.
  • Deep Reviewer: The MEA single-query head-folding path with S=1, Q=1, and explicit query lengths looked consistent statically, but that exact scenario was not executed in this review.

Coverage, dissent, and residual risk

Static tracing did not establish additional introduced defects in CPU/CUDA causal offsets, idle-cache preservation, physical strides, Flash split-combine, masked-V scratch, or runtime/estimator workspace consistency. The intentional fast-path bypass and padding-output sentinel checks are documented design choices, not additional findings. No Major/Critical finding was rejected or deferred.

git diff --check passed. No local builds, kernel execution, sanitizers, or performance benchmarks were run; this is not a runtime safety clearance. Specialized kernel variants and transitive consumers were not exhaustively audited. Other failing checks showed WebGPU operator-documentation differences and Web detached-ArrayBuffer errors; a causal relationship to this PR was not established, so they are not reported as introduced defects.

Check PyTorch CUDA support before advertising the math backend so CUDA-only regressions skip with CPU-only PyTorch without disabling CPU coverage. Keep math support on pre-SM80 devices and cover both availability cases.

Addressed F1 in 5cb1d43.

has_sdpa_kernel() now checks PyTorch CUDA availability before the MATH fast return. CUDA-only tests therefore skip with CPU-only PyTorch without disabling CPU coverage in the mixed class. MATH remains available on pre-SM80 CUDA devices. Added regressions for all three backend probes without PyTorch CUDA and for pre-SM80 MATH support.

Validation with the rebuilt PR runtime:

  • 40 tests + 48 subtests passed, with no skips, on H200/SM90: CPU/CUDA padded chunks, native backend dispatch, CUDA graphs, and H512 MEA.
  • Simulated unavailable PyTorch CUDA with the ORT CUDA EP present: 12 CPU tests passed; all 24 CUDA tests skipped, including the five previously failing MATH cases. CUDA capability inspection and backend probing were forbidden during this run.
  • Additional forced-MEA check: S=1, Q=1, explicit query lengths, global attention, single KV head passed output/cache parity and native-dispatch assertions.
  • Ruff lint/format and whitespace checks passed.

The non-blocking SM86 H512 shared-memory question remains unverified because only SM90 hardware is available; the H200 result is not a portability claim.

Reviewed the update through 5cb1d43. The previously reported Major finding (F1: missing PyTorch CUDA-availability guard) is resolved, with focused regression tests added. The Windows CUDA test job that previously failed now passes. No remaining blocking code findings were established by the full static review and focused follow-up. Approval is for the reviewed code, not a declaration that all merge checks are green: documentation generation/validation, React Native Android, and Linux training checks still show failures whose latest causes were not verified in this follow-up. No local builds, kernel execution, sanitizers, or benchmarks were performed; the previously noted non-blocking hardware-validation questions remain.

…chunks Support (openvinotoolkit#39495)

## Description

Implements the optional `query_seqlens` input (index 16) of
`com.microsoft.GroupQueryAttention`, added by ONNX Runtime in
microsoft/onnxruntime#33505 (CPU) on top of
microsoft/onnxruntime#33503 (schema, CUDA). The
input gives the number of valid rows of a right-padded query chunk, so
static-shape chunked prefill can pad its last chunk to the fixed chunk
length. Before this change the ONNX frontend rejected any
GroupQueryAttention node with 17 inputs.

With `S` the padded chunk length, `T = seqlens_k + 1` and `Q =
query_seqlens`, the past length becomes `P = T - Q` instead of `T - S`:
query row `s` sits at absolute position `P + s` for the causal mask, the
sliding window and the implicit rotary positions, and only the `Q` valid
rows are new tokens. Following
microsoft/onnxruntime#33832, batched chunks are
supported, the input is honored at `sequence_length == 1`, and `Q = 0`
marks an idle entry whose cache is unchanged. Models without the input
are unaffected.

ONNX Runtime references:
- **Spec:**
https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/docs/ContribOperators.md#com.microsoft.GroupQueryAttention
- **CPU kernel:**
https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/onnxruntime/contrib_ops/cpu/bert/group_query_attention.cc
- **CPU attention / cache write:**
https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/onnxruntime/contrib_ops/cpu/bert/gqa_attention_base.h
- **Input checks:**
https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/onnxruntime/contrib_ops/cpu/bert/group_query_attention_helper.h

## Approach

- **Op:** `ov::op::internal::GroupQueryAttention` gets a `QUERY_SEQLENS`
input with `has_query_seqlens()`. Validation matches ONNX Runtime: rank
1 with `batch_size` elements, past required (a typed-empty rank-4
Constant counts as past layout, matching an empty Parameter),
`causal=1`, no shared KV, key/value length equal to the query's.
- **ONNX FE:** accepts 17 inputs and forwards `query_seqlens` only when
it is wired, so existing models keep a 16-input op and their IR is
unchanged.
- **Decomposition:** when `has_query_seqlens()`, `P = T - Q` (per batch
entry) drives the mask, the KV write offset and the implicit rotary
positions. The KV write keeps its static S-row shape at `[P, P + S)`:
the cache stays left-aligned with every valid row in `[0, T)`, and the
padded tail lands at or beyond `T`, where no valid query reads it and
the next step overwrites it (ONNX Runtime requires `P + S <= capacity`).
Writing only the `Q` valid rows would make the update shape
data-dependent, which static-shape devices cannot compile. The public
present buffer is separately sized to ONNX Runtime's `max(past_rows,
total_sequence_length)` capacity contract
(`group_query_attention_helper.h`), since `total_sequence_length` can
pre-allocate headroom past this step's write; attention itself still
runs over the tight `[P, P + S)` buffer. The windowed-cache staging path
writes back only the valid rows, so eviction follows `T`. An idle entry
(`Q = 0`, `P = T`) writes only at or beyond `T`, so its valid cache is
unchanged; an idle windowed decode takes the staging path for the same
reason. Padded K/V rows are zeroed with one `Select` each, since masking
alone lets NaN filler reach valid rows through the scores and `0 * V`
(ONNX Runtime CPU/CUDA never read them); single-token steps skip it, as
their padded entries are idle. Padded rotary rows are capped at
`seqlens_k` with one `Minimum`, which keeps them in range; their outputs
are unspecified, as in ONNX Runtime. Graphs without the input lower
exactly as before.
- **GPU:** `StatelessKV` gets `P + S` as its present length, so the S
rows land at `P` and SDPA's lower-right causal alignment gives row `s`
the keys `<= P + s`, with no extra mask or copy. A windowed cache with a
padded chunk uses the generic staging path, because `StatelessKV` evicts
by its present length; decode keeps the `StatelessKV` sliding-window
path.

## Scope

In scope: CPU (common decomposition) and GPU for full-length,
static-capacity and windowed caches, implicit and explicit rotary
positions, float and int8-quantized KV, single and batched graphs. Out
of scope: NPU compilers, which do not handle the input yet;
`StatelessKV` honoring `total_sequence_length` headroom beyond `P + S`
on GPU, and keeping a padded windowed chunk on the GPU `StatelessKV`
sliding-window path (both planned as a follow-up).

## Validation

- type_prop tests for the new input, batched and single-token
acceptance, and every rejection.
- ONNX FE tests with expected values from the ONNX Runtime CPU kernel:
static cache with rotary, growing cache (batched path), windowed cache,
single-token step with the input wired, explicit `position_ids`, int8
quantized cache, plus the
microsoft/onnxruntime#33832 cases: batched chunk
with an idle entry and NaN-poisoned padding, equal totals with different
pasts, idle single-token step, windowed idle and active single-token
steps. Padded output rows and cache rows at or beyond the valid length
are unspecified, so the models compare only the valid region. The GPU
run of the static-capacity cases is skipped because a static-capacity
present output consumed by a non-Result op fails at runtime on GPU,
which also happens without this change.
- A growing-cache regression evaluates the unsliced present output
directly against `total_sequence_length` (not `P + S`), checking both
the resulting shape and that the write window and unwritten past prefix
land correctly, matching the ONNX Runtime CPU/CUDA capacity contract
(`group_query_attention_helper.h`).
- A padded prefill chunk with 32 heads, 8 KV heads, head size 128, `S =
512`, `Q = 300` and `P = 1000` matches the ONNX Runtime CPU kernel on
CPU (output max abs diff 1.2e-6, present KV bit-exact) for a static and
a windowed cache, and its latency with the input matches the same chunk
without it.

### FYI
- microsoft/onnxruntime#33832 (merged after this
PR was opened) extended the `query_seqlens` contract on CPU/CUDA:
batched chunks, `Q = 0` idle entries and honoring the input at
`sequence_length == 1`. This PR follows that contract; expected values
come from the ONNX Runtime CPU kernel at that commit.

## 1.32.0

ONNX Runtime 1.32.0 reintegrates ONNX 1.23.2 with opset 28 support,
introduces CPU/GPU hybrid MoE offloading and shared-layout CPU QMoE
kernels, expands device-memory, weightless-compilation, and Python
model-package APIs, dramatically accelerates session initialization on
large graphs, and strengthens runtime and optimizer reliability. These
notes cover changes since ONNX Runtime 1.31.1. CUDA and WebGPU kernel
updates are summarized here; detailed provider notes are covered by
their separate plugin EP releases.

## Highlights

- Reintegrated **ONNX 1.23.2** with **opset 28** operator support
(`SpaceToDepth`, `Mod`, signed `BitShift`, and `BFloat16` extensions)
and updated **DLPack to v1.3** across all implemented ORT numeric and
boolean tensor types
([#​33134](microsoft/onnxruntime#33134),
[#​32362](microsoft/onnxruntime#32362),
[#​33848](microsoft/onnxruntime#33848)).
- Added a session-scoped **CPU/GPU hybrid MoE offload** planner and
execution backend for quantized `QMoE` (NVFP4, INT4, INT3, and INT2) and
block-packed `MoEPacked` models, backed by shared-layout AVX-512/AVX2
CPU `QMoE` kernels and memory-mapped expert storage
([#​33450](microsoft/onnxruntime#33450),
[#​33451](microsoft/onnxruntime#33451),
[#​33452](microsoft/onnxruntime#33452),
[#​33973](microsoft/onnxruntime#33973)).
- Expanded core APIs with `OrtApi::EpDevice_GetMemoryCapacity`, explicit
multi-mode weightless compilation
(`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` and
`ep.enable_weightless_mode`), Python bindings for the Model Package
APIs, and zero-copy CPU buffer borrowing in `AddExternalInitializers`
([#​33447](microsoft/onnxruntime#33447),
[#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899),
[#​33640](microsoft/onnxruntime#33640),
[#​33877](microsoft/onnxruntime#33877)).
- Eliminated superlinear bottlenecks in allocation planning, constant
sharing, graph I/O mapping, and topological sorting—reducing session
initialization on 100k-node constant-heavy graphs from minutes to
seconds—and added pipelined pinned-memory staging for external GPU
weight loading
([#​33407](microsoft/onnxruntime#33407),
[#​33939](microsoft/onnxruntime#33939),
[#​34009](microsoft/onnxruntime#34009),
[#​33839](microsoft/onnxruntime#33839)).
- Expanded shared generative AI and quantized contrib operators,
including Kimi Delta Attention (`GatedDeltaNet` per-key-dimension
decay), right-padded chunked prefill in `GroupQueryAttention`, native
GGUF/block-packed operators (`GatherPacked`, `MatMulPacked`,
`MoEPacked`), and sparse-attention index sharing
([#​33817](microsoft/onnxruntime#33817),
[#​33503](microsoft/onnxruntime#33503),
[#​33953](microsoft/onnxruntime#33953),
[#​33224](microsoft/onnxruntime#33224)).

## Announcements & Compatibility

- **CUDA Plugin EP v0.4.0** and **WebGPU Plugin EP v0.6.0** are matched
with ONNX Runtime 1.32.0
([#​33214](microsoft/onnxruntime#33214)). For
**contrib-op compatibility**, core and the plugin must use the same
contributed-operator schemas; building both from the **same ONNX Runtime
revision** is recommended. Schema mismatches can cause incorrect
execution or crashes and may not be detected during plugin registration.
- **ACL EP removed:** Following its deprecation in 1.31.0, the Arm
Compute Library (`ACLExecutionProvider`) execution provider, its build
options, and its standalone C registration API have been removed.
Python's `get_all_providers()` no longer lists `ACLExecutionProvider`;
applications should remove it from explicit provider lists
([#​33851](microsoft/onnxruntime#33851)).
- **Legacy provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` removed:**
In-tree provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` sources have
been removed in favor of the standalone NVIDIA TensorRT RTX plugin EP
registered via `OrtApi::RegisterExecutionProviderLibrary`.
`NvTensorRtRtxProviderOptions` is retained as a deprecated declaration
for source compatibility, and legacy `AppendExecutionProvider` calls now
report a deprecation error directing callers to the plugin EP
([#​32276](microsoft/onnxruntime#32276)).
- **ONNX 1.23.2 integration:** ONNX has been upgraded to **1.23.2**,
raising supported opset ceilings to **28** and restoring
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E2M3` and
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E3M2` public element-type mappings
and `Cast` conversions
([#​33134](microsoft/onnxruntime#33134)).
- **DLPack v1.3 boolean contract change:** DLPack has been upgraded to
**v1.3** with native `kDLBool` metadata and bidirectional support for
all implemented ORT numeric and boolean types, including all five
`float8` formats, packed `float4`, `int4`/`uint4`, and `int2`/`uint2`
(`float6` remains unsupported in DLPack). The low-level `is_bool_tensor`
override was removed, and `uint8` DLPack metadata now always imports as
`uint8`
([#​33848](microsoft/onnxruntime#33848)).
- **Weightless compilation API migration:**
`OrtCompileApi::ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessEnabled` and the
`ep.enable_weightless` / `ep.enable_weightless_ep_context_nodes` session
options are deprecated in favor of
`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` and
`ep.enable_weightless_mode` (`"0"` = `NONE`, `"1"` = `EXTERNAL_ONLY`,
`"2"` = `ALL`). EPs can now advertise multi-mode capability via
`OrtWeightlessSupport_ALL_OR_EXTERNAL_ONLY` and
`weightless_supported_modes`
([#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899)).
- **Training CI retirement:** Training build and test lanes were retired
from active GitHub Actions CI workflows while retaining inference build
coverage
([#​33836](microsoft/onnxruntime#33836)).
- This is the last release for [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org/), and
we will switch to [Swift Package
Manager](https://docs.swift.org/latest/documentation/packagemanagerdocs/).
- We will use combo onnxruntime-gpu python package to reduce storage
size from next release. You can test it
[here](https://aiinfra.visualstudio.com/PublicPackages/_artifacts/feed/ORT-Nightly/PyPI/onnxruntime-gpu/overview)

## New Features

### Core APIs & Runtime

- Added `OrtApi::EpDevice_GetMemoryCapacity` (C++
`EpDevice::GetMemoryCapacity()`) and
`OrtEpFactory::GetDeviceMemoryCapacity` to query device-global total
memory and estimated currently available memory (`DEFAULT` or
`HOST_ACCESSIBLE`), with built-in and plugin CUDA EP support
([#​33447](microsoft/onnxruntime#33447)).
- Expanded the app–EP weightless contract so EPs advertise all supported
weightless modes (`weightless_supported_modes`), applications request an
explicit mode (`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` /
`ep.enable_weightless_mode`), and compiled EPContext models record
`weightless_mode` and `external_dependencies` (`source_model`,
`external_weights`, `ep_context_binary`) in model metadata
([#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899)).
- Extended `session.use_external_initializer_file_buffers_directly="1"`
to `AddExternalInitializers` for zero-copy borrowing of naturally
aligned CPU buffers larger than 127 bytes on little-endian hosts, and
documented the read-only guarantee for external initializers added via
`OrtModelEditorApi::AddInitializerToGraph` with `data_is_external=true`
([#​33877](microsoft/onnxruntime#33877),
[#​33717](microsoft/onnxruntime#33717)).
- Added lock-free multi-worker pinned-memory staging
(`session.external_data_loader.*`) to accelerate external initializer
loading into GPU memory across built-in and plugin CUDA EPs
([#​33839](microsoft/onnxruntime#33839)).
- Added a session-scoped MoE/QMoE CPU/GPU offload planner and
memory-budget ledger (`session.moe.offload.*`), generic
`session.kernel_dispatch_policy` (`auto`, `latency`, `memory`, `safe`)
configuration plumbing, Level-1 workspace/prepack memory accounting
fallback for nodes absent from memory-profile CSVs, and internal
capability-planning protocol types
([#​33451](microsoft/onnxruntime#33451),
[#​33042](microsoft/onnxruntime#33042),
[#​33311](microsoft/onnxruntime#33311),
[#​33841](microsoft/onnxruntime#33841)).
- Enabled cross-thread reuse of idle device streams when graph capture
is disabled and providers register device-selection callbacks, and
enabled compile-session profiling (`<profile_file>_compile`) in
`onnxruntime_perf_test` when `-p` is used with `--compile_ep_context`
([#​33053](microsoft/onnxruntime#33053),
[#​33694](microsoft/onnxruntime#33694)).
- Made `onnxruntime_DISABLE_EXCEPTIONS` (`--disable_exceptions`) usable
without `onnxruntime_MINIMAL_BUILD` and added the
`onnxruntime_DISABLE_STREAM=ON` CMake option to disable device-stream
support in non-minimal builds
([#​33120](microsoft/onnxruntime#33120),
[#​33482](microsoft/onnxruntime#33482)).

### ONNX Opset 28 & Shared Contrib Operators

These updates affect core ONNX and contributed operator schemas and
cross-provider behavior, not only the separately released GPU plugins.

- Added ONNX opset 28 operator support: native `SpaceToDepth` (`DCR` and
`CRD`) on CPU and CUDA with version-split registrations across DML, JS,
WebGPU, and QNN; opset-28 floating floor-modulus `Mod` on CPU, CUDA, and
DML; opset-28 `BFloat16` support for `Compress`, `OneHot`,
`ReverseSequence`, `Unique`, `Celu`, and `Einsum` on CPU (plus
`Compress`, `OneHot`, and `ReverseSequence` on CUDA); and `BFloat16`
`Pad` (opsets 21–25) on CPU and CUDA
([#​32362](microsoft/onnxruntime#32362),
[#​32369](microsoft/onnxruntime#32369),
[#​32378](microsoft/onnxruntime#32378),
[#​34062](microsoft/onnxruntime#34062)).
- Extended `GatedDeltaNet` with Kimi Delta Attention (KDA)
per-key-dimension decay across CPU, CUDA, and WebGPU, and extended
`GatedDeltaNet` and `CausalConvWithState` state/gate handling for
multi-token speculative decoding
([#​33817](microsoft/onnxruntime#33817),
[#​33471](microsoft/onnxruntime#33471)).
- Added an optional `query_seqlens` input to `GroupQueryAttention` to
skip right-padded prefill tokens and idle batch entries
(`query_seqlens[b] = 0`) on CPU and CUDA, and added `q_norm_epsilon` /
`k_norm_epsilon` attributes to preserve distinct Q and K normalization
epsilons during GQA pre-norm fusion
([#​33503](microsoft/onnxruntime#33503),
[#​33505](microsoft/onnxruntime#33505),
[#​33832](microsoft/onnxruntime#33832),
[#​33363](microsoft/onnxruntime#33363)).
- Defined the INT3 `QMoE` v1 packed-code contract, added opt-in
post-SiLU clipping (`swiglu_limit_after_activation`) and tanh-`GEGLU`
(`activation_type="geglu"`) support to MoE/QMoE schemas, and added
`GatherPacked` (CPU/CUDA), `MatMulPacked` (CUDA, including native Bolt
`global_scale`), and `MoEPacked` (CUDA) to consume native
GGUF/block-packed quantized weights directly
([#​33394](microsoft/onnxruntime#33394),
[#​33954](microsoft/onnxruntime#33954),
[#​33633](microsoft/onnxruntime#33633),
[#​33953](microsoft/onnxruntime#33953),
[#​33962](microsoft/onnxruntime#33962)).
- Added `PackedSparseAttentionIndexerMerge` for multi-token prediction
index sharing and optional `state_status` / mid-state outputs on
`PackedSparseAttentionIndexer` across CUDA and WebGPU; extended
`GatedAdd` with an optional projected `gate_weight` across CPU, CUDA,
and WebGPU; and supported empty unpacked weights in CPU and WebGPU
`MatMulNBits`
([#​33224](microsoft/onnxruntime#33224),
[#​33383](microsoft/onnxruntime#33383),
[#​33472](microsoft/onnxruntime#33472),
[#​33470](microsoft/onnxruntime#33470),
[#​33559](microsoft/onnxruntime#33559)).
- Registered core contrib schemas for provider-targeted LLM and
speculative-decoding operators, including `SwiGLU`, `RMSNormRotary`,
`HyperConnectionLowRankMix`, `RouterGateUpProj`,
`SpeculativePrefixCommit`, `GatedDeltaNetStateReplay`,
`ConvStateReplay`, and `MatMulNBitsQLoRA`
([#​32126](microsoft/onnxruntime#32126),

[#​33213](microsoft/onnxruntime#33213),
[#​33493](microsoft/onnxruntime#33493),
[#​33370](microsoft/onnxruntime#33370)).

### Plugin Execution Provider Infrastructure

- Fixed an `OrtMemoryInfo` ABI mismatch across the ORT/plugin EP
boundary by converting `OrtMemoryInfo` instances exclusively through the
C API ([#​33571](microsoft/onnxruntime#33571)).
- Zero-initialized `OrtEpFactory` structs in provider-bridge EP
factories so unimplemented optional callbacks are null, and prevented
double DLL initialization and handle leaks when probing and registering
plugin EP libraries
([#​33117](microsoft/onnxruntime#33117),
[#​33701](microsoft/onnxruntime#33701)).
- Hardened portable model-package EP recreation, custom-domain
preservation, UTF-8 path handling, and `shared_assets` path confinement
and symlink validation
([#​32790](microsoft/onnxruntime#32790),
[#​33826](microsoft/onnxruntime#33826)).

<summary>Release notes</summary>

_Sourced from [Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntime.Managed's
releases](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/releases)._

## 1.32.0

ONNX Runtime 1.32.0 reintegrates ONNX 1.23.2 with opset 28 support,
introduces CPU/GPU hybrid MoE offloading and shared-layout CPU QMoE
kernels, expands device-memory, weightless-compilation, and Python
model-package APIs, dramatically accelerates session initialization on
large graphs, and strengthens runtime and optimizer reliability. These
notes cover changes since ONNX Runtime 1.31.1. CUDA and WebGPU kernel
updates are summarized here; detailed provider notes are covered by
their separate plugin EP releases.

## Highlights

- Reintegrated **ONNX 1.23.2** with **opset 28** operator support
(`SpaceToDepth`, `Mod`, signed `BitShift`, and `BFloat16` extensions)
and updated **DLPack to v1.3** across all implemented ORT numeric and
boolean tensor types
([#​33134](microsoft/onnxruntime#33134),
[#​32362](microsoft/onnxruntime#32362),
[#​33848](microsoft/onnxruntime#33848)).
- Added a session-scoped **CPU/GPU hybrid MoE offload** planner and
execution backend for quantized `QMoE` (NVFP4, INT4, INT3, and INT2) and
block-packed `MoEPacked` models, backed by shared-layout AVX-512/AVX2
CPU `QMoE` kernels and memory-mapped expert storage
([#​33450](microsoft/onnxruntime#33450),
[#​33451](microsoft/onnxruntime#33451),
[#​33452](microsoft/onnxruntime#33452),
[#​33973](microsoft/onnxruntime#33973)).
- Expanded core APIs with `OrtApi::EpDevice_GetMemoryCapacity`, explicit
multi-mode weightless compilation
(`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` and
`ep.enable_weightless_mode`), Python bindings for the Model Package
APIs, and zero-copy CPU buffer borrowing in `AddExternalInitializers`
([#​33447](microsoft/onnxruntime#33447),
[#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899),
[#​33640](microsoft/onnxruntime#33640),
[#​33877](microsoft/onnxruntime#33877)).
- Eliminated superlinear bottlenecks in allocation planning, constant
sharing, graph I/O mapping, and topological sorting—reducing session
initialization on 100k-node constant-heavy graphs from minutes to
seconds—and added pipelined pinned-memory staging for external GPU
weight loading
([#​33407](microsoft/onnxruntime#33407),
[#​33939](microsoft/onnxruntime#33939),
[#​34009](microsoft/onnxruntime#34009),
[#​33839](microsoft/onnxruntime#33839)).
- Expanded shared generative AI and quantized contrib operators,
including Kimi Delta Attention (`GatedDeltaNet` per-key-dimension
decay), right-padded chunked prefill in `GroupQueryAttention`, native
GGUF/block-packed operators (`GatherPacked`, `MatMulPacked`,
`MoEPacked`), and sparse-attention index sharing
([#​33817](microsoft/onnxruntime#33817),
[#​33503](microsoft/onnxruntime#33503),
[#​33953](microsoft/onnxruntime#33953),
[#​33224](microsoft/onnxruntime#33224)).

## Announcements & Compatibility

- **CUDA Plugin EP v0.4.0** and **WebGPU Plugin EP v0.6.0** are matched
with ONNX Runtime 1.32.0
([#​33214](microsoft/onnxruntime#33214)). For
**contrib-op compatibility**, core and the plugin must use the same
contributed-operator schemas; building both from the **same ONNX Runtime
revision** is recommended. Schema mismatches can cause incorrect
execution or crashes and may not be detected during plugin registration.
- **ACL EP removed:** Following its deprecation in 1.31.0, the Arm
Compute Library (`ACLExecutionProvider`) execution provider, its build
options, and its standalone C registration API have been removed.
Python's `get_all_providers()` no longer lists `ACLExecutionProvider`;
applications should remove it from explicit provider lists
([#​33851](microsoft/onnxruntime#33851)).
- **Legacy provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` removed:**
In-tree provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` sources have
been removed in favor of the standalone NVIDIA TensorRT RTX plugin EP
registered via `OrtApi::RegisterExecutionProviderLibrary`.
`NvTensorRtRtxProviderOptions` is retained as a deprecated declaration
for source compatibility, and legacy `AppendExecutionProvider` calls now
report a deprecation error directing callers to the plugin EP
([#​32276](microsoft/onnxruntime#32276)).
- **ONNX 1.23.2 integration:** ONNX has been upgraded to **1.23.2**,
raising supported opset ceilings to **28** and restoring
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E2M3` and
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E3M2` public element-type mappings
and `Cast` conversions
([#​33134](microsoft/onnxruntime#33134)).
- **DLPack v1.3 boolean contract change:** DLPack has been upgraded to
**v1.3** with native `kDLBool` metadata and bidirectional support for
all implemented ORT numeric and boolean types, including all five
`float8` formats, packed `float4`, `int4`/`uint4`, and `int2`/`uint2`
(`float6` remains unsupported in DLPack). The low-level `is_bool_tensor`
override was removed, and `uint8` DLPack metadata now always imports as
`uint8`
([#​33848](microsoft/onnxruntime#33848)).
- **Weightless compilation API migration:**
`OrtCompileApi::ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessEnabled` and the
`ep.enable_weightless` / `ep.enable_weightless_ep_context_nodes` session
options are deprecated in favor of
`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` and
`ep.enable_weightless_mode` (`"0"` = `NONE`, `"1"` = `EXTERNAL_ONLY`,
`"2"` = `ALL`). EPs can now advertise multi-mode capability via
`OrtWeightlessSupport_ALL_OR_EXTERNAL_ONLY` and
`weightless_supported_modes`
([#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899)).
- **Training CI retirement:** Training build and test lanes were retired
from active GitHub Actions CI workflows while retaining inference build
coverage
([#​33836](microsoft/onnxruntime#33836)).
- This is the last release for [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org/), and
we will switch to [Swift Package
Manager](https://docs.swift.org/latest/documentation/packagemanagerdocs/).
- We will use combo onnxruntime-gpu python package to reduce storage
size from next release. You can test it
[here](https://aiinfra.visualstudio.com/PublicPackages/_artifacts/feed/ORT-Nightly/PyPI/onnxruntime-gpu/overview)

([#​33053](microsoft/onnxruntime#33053),
[#​33694](microsoft/onnxruntime#33694)).
- Made `onnxruntime_DISABLE_EXCEPTIONS` (`--disable_exceptions`) usable
without `onnxruntime_MINIMAL_BUILD` and added the
`onnxruntime_DISABLE_STREAM=ON` CMake option to disable device-stream
support in non-minimal builds
([#​33120](microsoft/onnxruntime#33120),

multi-token speculative decoding
([#​33817](microsoft/onnxruntime#33817),
[#​33471](microsoft/onnxruntime#33471)).

skip right-padded prefill tokens and idle batch entries
(`query_seqlens[b] = 0`) on CPU and CUDA, and added `q_norm_epsilon` /

epsilons during GQA pre-norm fusion
([#​33503](microsoft/onnxruntime#33503),

## 18.12.0

## Security fix

This release includes the fix for CVE-2026-105544, an elevation of
privilege vulnerability in the VSTest artifact post-processor. The
post-processor could consume a forged `executionComplete.json` written
by another local user, and then run attacker-controlled output handling.

Affected: `Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` 18.11.0 and earlier. Every
version from 18.11.1 on is fixed, including 18.12.0.

`Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` is the VSTest build that we ship into the
.NET SDK. The recommended way to get this fix is to update your .NET SDK
to the latest patched version, see the advisory for the SDK versions.

The fix is also released in the `Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` package,
for completeness. That package is rarely used directly. It is not a
dependency of `Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk` or `Microsoft.TestPlatform`, so
those packages do not bring it in.

microsoft/vstest@v18.11.0...v18.12.0



## 18.11.1

## Security fix

This release fixes CVE-2026-105544, an elevation of privilege
vulnerability in the VSTest artifact post-processor. The post-processor
could consume a forged `executionComplete.json` written by another local
user, and then run attacker-controlled output handling.

Affected: `Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` 18.11.0.
Fixed in: `Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` 18.11.1.

`Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` is the VSTest build that we ship into the
.NET SDK. The recommended way to get this fix is to update your .NET SDK
to the latest patched version, see the advisory for the SDK versions.

The fix is also released in the `Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` package,
for completeness. That package is rarely used directly. It is not a
dependency of `Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk` or `Microsoft.TestPlatform`, so
those packages do not bring it in.

## 1.32.0

ONNX Runtime 1.32.0 reintegrates ONNX 1.23.2 with opset 28 support,
introduces CPU/GPU hybrid MoE offloading and shared-layout CPU QMoE
kernels, expands device-memory, weightless-compilation, and Python
model-package APIs, dramatically accelerates session initialization on
large graphs, and strengthens runtime and optimizer reliability. These
notes cover changes since ONNX Runtime 1.31.1. CUDA and WebGPU kernel
updates are summarized here; detailed provider notes are covered by
their separate plugin EP releases.

## Highlights

- Reintegrated **ONNX 1.23.2** with **opset 28** operator support
(`SpaceToDepth`, `Mod`, signed `BitShift`, and `BFloat16` extensions)
and updated **DLPack to v1.3** across all implemented ORT numeric and
boolean tensor types
([#​33134](microsoft/onnxruntime#33134),
[#​32362](microsoft/onnxruntime#32362),
[#​33848](microsoft/onnxruntime#33848)).
- Added a session-scoped **CPU/GPU hybrid MoE offload** planner and
execution backend for quantized `QMoE` (NVFP4, INT4, INT3, and INT2) and
block-packed `MoEPacked` models, backed by shared-layout AVX-512/AVX2
CPU `QMoE` kernels and memory-mapped expert storage
([#​33450](microsoft/onnxruntime#33450),
[#​33451](microsoft/onnxruntime#33451),
[#​33452](microsoft/onnxruntime#33452),
[#​33973](microsoft/onnxruntime#33973)).
- Expanded core APIs with `OrtApi::EpDevice_GetMemoryCapacity`, explicit
multi-mode weightless compilation
(`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` and
`ep.enable_weightless_mode`), Python bindings for the Model Package
APIs, and zero-copy CPU buffer borrowing in `AddExternalInitializers`
([#​33447](microsoft/onnxruntime#33447),
[#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899),
[#​33640](microsoft/onnxruntime#33640),
[#​33877](microsoft/onnxruntime#33877)).
- Eliminated superlinear bottlenecks in allocation planning, constant
sharing, graph I/O mapping, and topological sorting—reducing session
initialization on 100k-node constant-heavy graphs from minutes to
seconds—and added pipelined pinned-memory staging for external GPU
weight loading
([#​33407](microsoft/onnxruntime#33407),
[#​33939](microsoft/onnxruntime#33939),
[#​34009](microsoft/onnxruntime#34009),
[#​33839](microsoft/onnxruntime#33839)).
- Expanded shared generative AI and quantized contrib operators,
including Kimi Delta Attention (`GatedDeltaNet` per-key-dimension
decay), right-padded chunked prefill in `GroupQueryAttention`, native
GGUF/block-packed operators (`GatherPacked`, `MatMulPacked`,
`MoEPacked`), and sparse-attention index sharing
([#​33817](microsoft/onnxruntime#33817),
[#​33503](microsoft/onnxruntime#33503),
[#​33953](microsoft/onnxruntime#33953),
[#​33224](microsoft/onnxruntime#33224)).

## Announcements & Compatibility

- **CUDA Plugin EP v0.4.0** and **WebGPU Plugin EP v0.6.0** are matched
with ONNX Runtime 1.32.0
([#​33214](microsoft/onnxruntime#33214)). For
**contrib-op compatibility**, core and the plugin must use the same
contributed-operator schemas; building both from the **same ONNX Runtime
revision** is recommended. Schema mismatches can cause incorrect
execution or crashes and may not be detected during plugin registration.
- **ACL EP removed:** Following its deprecation in 1.31.0, the Arm
Compute Library (`ACLExecutionProvider`) execution provider, its build
options, and its standalone C registration API have been removed.
Python's `get_all_providers()` no longer lists `ACLExecutionProvider`;
applications should remove it from explicit provider lists
([#​33851](microsoft/onnxruntime#33851)).
- **Legacy provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` removed:**
In-tree provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` sources have
been removed in favor of the standalone NVIDIA TensorRT RTX plugin EP
registered via `OrtApi::RegisterExecutionProviderLibrary`.
`NvTensorRtRtxProviderOptions` is retained as a deprecated declaration
for source compatibility, and legacy `AppendExecutionProvider` calls now
report a deprecation error directing callers to the plugin EP
([#​32276](microsoft/onnxruntime#32276)).
- **ONNX 1.23.2 integration:** ONNX has been upgraded to **1.23.2**,
raising supported opset ceilings to **28** and restoring
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E2M3` and
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E3M2` public element-type mappings
and `Cast` conversions
([#​33134](microsoft/onnxruntime#33134)).
- **DLPack v1.3 boolean contract change:** DLPack has been upgraded to
**v1.3** with native `kDLBool` metadata and bidirectional support for
all implemented ORT numeric and boolean types, including all five
`float8` formats, packed `float4`, `int4`/`uint4`, and `int2`/`uint2`
(`float6` remains unsupported in DLPack). The low-level `is_bool_tensor`
override was removed, and `uint8` DLPack metadata now always imports as
`uint8`
([#​33848](microsoft/onnxruntime#33848)).
- **Weightless compilation API migration:**
`OrtCompileApi::ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessEnabled` and the
`ep.enable_weightless` / `ep.enable_weightless_ep_context_nodes` session
options are deprecated in favor of
`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` and
`ep.enable_weightless_mode` (`"0"` = `NONE`, `"1"` = `EXTERNAL_ONLY`,
`"2"` = `ALL`). EPs can now advertise multi-mode capability via
`OrtWeightlessSupport_ALL_OR_EXTERNAL_ONLY` and
`weightless_supported_modes`
([#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899)).
- **Training CI retirement:** Training build and test lanes were retired
from active GitHub Actions CI workflows while retaining inference build
coverage
([#​33836](microsoft/onnxruntime#33836)).
- This is the last release for [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org/), and
we will switch to [Swift Package
Manager](https://docs.swift.org/latest/documentation/packagemanagerdocs/).
- We will use combo onnxruntime-gpu python package to reduce storage
size from next release. You can test it
[here](https://aiinfra.visualstudio.com/PublicPackages/_artifacts/feed/ORT-Nightly/PyPI/onnxruntime-gpu/overview)

## New Features

### Core APIs & Runtime

- Added `OrtApi::EpDevice_GetMemoryCapacity` (C++
`EpDevice::GetMemoryCapacity()`) and
`OrtEpFactory::GetDeviceMemoryCapacity` to query device-global total
memory and estimated currently available memory (`DEFAULT` or
`HOST_ACCESSIBLE`), with built-in and plugin CUDA EP support
([#​33447](microsoft/onnxruntime#33447)).
- Expanded the app–EP weightless contract so EPs advertise all supported
weightless modes (`weightless_supported_modes`), applications request an
explicit mode (`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` /
`ep.enable_weightless_mode`), and compiled EPContext models record
`weightless_mode` and `external_dependencies` (`source_model`,
`external_weights`, `ep_context_binary`) in model metadata
([#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899)).
- Extended `session.use_external_initializer_file_buffers_directly="1"`
to `AddExternalInitializers` for zero-copy borrowing of naturally
aligned CPU buffers larger than 127 bytes on little-endian hosts, and
documented the read-only guarantee for external initializers added via
`OrtModelEditorApi::AddInitializerToGraph` with `data_is_external=true`
([#​33877](microsoft/onnxruntime#33877),
[#​33717](microsoft/onnxruntime#33717)).
- Added lock-free multi-worker pinned-memory staging
(`session.external_data_loader.*`) to accelerate external initializer
loading into GPU memory across built-in and plugin CUDA EPs
([#​33839](microsoft/onnxruntime#33839)).
- Added a session-scoped MoE/QMoE CPU/GPU offload planner and
memory-budget ledger (`session.moe.offload.*`), generic
`session.kernel_dispatch_policy` (`auto`, `latency`, `memory`, `safe`)
configuration plumbing, Level-1 workspace/prepack memory accounting
fallback for nodes absent from memory-profile CSVs, and internal
capability-planning protocol types
([#​33451](microsoft/onnxruntime#33451),
[#​33042](microsoft/onnxruntime#33042),
[#​33311](microsoft/onnxruntime#33311),
[#​33841](microsoft/onnxruntime#33841)).
- Enabled cross-thread reuse of idle device streams when graph capture
is disabled and providers register device-selection callbacks, and
enabled compile-session profiling (`<profile_file>_compile`) in
`onnxruntime_perf_test` when `-p` is used with `--compile_ep_context`
([#​33053](microsoft/onnxruntime#33053),
[#​33694](microsoft/onnxruntime#33694)).
- Made `onnxruntime_DISABLE_EXCEPTIONS` (`--disable_exceptions`) usable
without `onnxruntime_MINIMAL_BUILD` and added the
`onnxruntime_DISABLE_STREAM=ON` CMake option to disable device-stream
support in non-minimal builds
([#​33120](microsoft/onnxruntime#33120),
[#​33482](microsoft/onnxruntime#33482)).

### ONNX Opset 28 & Shared Contrib Operators

These updates affect core ONNX and contributed operator schemas and
cross-provider behavior, not only the separately released GPU plugins.

- Added ONNX opset 28 operator support: native `SpaceToDepth` (`DCR` and
`CRD`) on CPU and CUDA with version-split registrations across DML, JS,
WebGPU, and QNN; opset-28 floating floor-modulus `Mod` on CPU, CUDA, and
DML; opset-28 `BFloat16` support for `Compress`, `OneHot`,
`ReverseSequence`, `Unique`, `Celu`, and `Einsum` on CPU (plus
`Compress`, `OneHot`, and `ReverseSequence` on CUDA); and `BFloat16`
`Pad` (opsets 21–25) on CPU and CUDA
([#​32362](microsoft/onnxruntime#32362),
[#​32369](microsoft/onnxruntime#32369),
[#​32378](microsoft/onnxruntime#32378),
[#​34062](microsoft/onnxruntime#34062)).
- Extended `GatedDeltaNet` with Kimi Delta Attention (KDA)
per-key-dimension decay across CPU, CUDA, and WebGPU, and extended
`GatedDeltaNet` and `CausalConvWithState` state/gate handling for
multi-token speculative decoding
([#​33817](microsoft/onnxruntime#33817),
[#​33471](microsoft/onnxruntime#33471)).
- Added an optional `query_seqlens` input to `GroupQueryAttention` to
skip right-padded prefill tokens and idle batch entries
(`query_seqlens[b] = 0`) on CPU and CUDA, and added `q_norm_epsilon` /
`k_norm_epsilon` attributes to preserve distinct Q and K normalization
epsilons during GQA pre-norm fusion
([#​33503](microsoft/onnxruntime#33503),
[#​33505](microsoft/onnxruntime#33505),
[#​33832](microsoft/onnxruntime#33832),
[#​33363](microsoft/onnxruntime#33363)).
- Defined the INT3 `QMoE` v1 packed-code contract, added opt-in
post-SiLU clipping (`swiglu_limit_after_activation`) and tanh-`GEGLU`
(`activation_type="geglu"`) support to MoE/QMoE schemas, and added
`GatherPacked` (CPU/CUDA), `MatMulPacked` (CUDA, including native Bolt
`global_scale`), and `MoEPacked` (CUDA) to consume native
GGUF/block-packed quantized weights directly
([#​33394](microsoft/onnxruntime#33394),
[#​33954](microsoft/onnxruntime#33954),
[#​33633](microsoft/onnxruntime#33633),
[#​33953](microsoft/onnxruntime#33953),
[#​33962](microsoft/onnxruntime#33962)).
- Added `PackedSparseAttentionIndexerMerge` for multi-token prediction
index sharing and optional `state_status` / mid-state outputs on
`PackedSparseAttentionIndexer` across CUDA and WebGPU; extended
`GatedAdd` with an optional projected `gate_weight` across CPU, CUDA,
and WebGPU; and supported empty unpacked weights in CPU and WebGPU
`MatMulNBits`
([#​33224](microsoft/onnxruntime#33224),
[#​33383](microsoft/onnxruntime#33383),
[#​33472](microsoft/onnxruntime#33472),
[#​33470](microsoft/onnxruntime#33470),
[#​33559](microsoft/onnxruntime#33559)).
- Registered core contrib schemas for provider-targeted LLM and
speculative-decoding operators, including `SwiGLU`, `RMSNormRotary`,
`HyperConnectionLowRankMix`, `RouterGateUpProj`,
`SpeculativePrefixCommit`, `GatedDeltaNetStateReplay`,
`ConvStateReplay`, and `MatMulNBitsQLoRA`
([#​32126](microsoft/onnxruntime#32126),
[#​33469](microsoft/onnxruntime#33469),
[#​33384](microsoft/onnxruntime#33384),
[#​33650](microsoft/onnxruntime#33650),
[#​33474](microsoft/onnxruntime#33474),
[#​33213](microsoft/onnxruntime#33213),
[#​33493](microsoft/onnxruntime#33493),
[#​33370](microsoft/onnxruntime#33370)).

### Plugin Execution Provider Infrastructure

- Fixed an `OrtMemoryInfo` ABI mismatch across the ORT/plugin EP
boundary by converting `OrtMemoryInfo` instances exclusively through the
C API ([#​33571](microsoft/onnxruntime#33571)).
- Zero-initialized `OrtEpFactory` structs in provider-bridge EP
factories so unimplemented optional callbacks are null, and prevented
double DLL initialization and handle leaks when probing and registering
plugin EP libraries
([#​33117](microsoft/onnxruntime#33117),
[#​33701](microsoft/onnxruntime#33701)).
- Hardened portable model-package EP recreation, custom-domain
preservation, UTF-8 path handling, and `shared_assets` path confinement
and symlink validation
([#​32790](microsoft/onnxruntime#32790),
[#​33826](microsoft/onnxruntime#33826)).

## Announcements & Compatibility

- **CUDA Plugin EP v0.4.0** and **WebGPU Plugin EP v0.6.0** are matched
with ONNX Runtime 1.32.0
([#​33214](microsoft/onnxruntime#33214)). For
**contrib-op compatibility**, core and the plugin must use the same
contributed-operator schemas; building both from the **same ONNX Runtime
revision** is recommended. Schema mismatches can cause incorrect

Python's `get_all_providers()` no longer lists `ACLExecutionProvider`;
applications should remove it from explicit provider lists
([#​33851](microsoft/onnxruntime#33851)).
- **Legacy provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` removed:**
In-tree provider-bridge `NvTensorRTRTXExecutionProvider` sources have
been removed in favor of the standalone NVIDIA TensorRT RTX plugin EP
registered via `OrtApi::RegisterExecutionProviderLibrary`.
`NvTensorRtRtxProviderOptions` is retained as a deprecated declaration
for source compatibility, and legacy `AppendExecutionProvider` calls now
report a deprecation error directing callers to the plugin EP
([#​32276](microsoft/onnxruntime#32276)).
- **ONNX 1.23.2 integration:** ONNX has been upgraded to **1.23.2**,
raising supported opset ceilings to **28** and restoring
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E2M3` and
`ONNX_TENSOR_ELEMENT_DATA_TYPE_FLOAT6E3M2` public element-type mappings
and `Cast` conversions
([#​33134](microsoft/onnxruntime#33134)).
- **DLPack v1.3 boolean contract change:** DLPack has been upgraded to
**v1.3** with native `kDLBool` metadata and bidirectional support for
all implemented ORT numeric and boolean types, including all five
`float8` formats, packed `float4`, `int4`/`uint4`, and `int2`/`uint2`
(`float6` remains unsupported in DLPack). The low-level `is_bool_tensor`
override was removed, and `uint8` DLPack metadata now always imports as
`uint8`
([#​33848](microsoft/onnxruntime#33848)).
- **Weightless compilation API migration:**
`OrtCompileApi::ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessEnabled` and the
`ep.enable_weightless` / `ep.enable_weightless_ep_context_nodes` session
options are deprecated in favor of
`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` and
`ep.enable_weightless_mode` (`"0"` = `NONE`, `"1"` = `EXTERNAL_ONLY`,
`"2"` = `ALL`). EPs can now advertise multi-mode capability via
`OrtWeightlessSupport_ALL_OR_EXTERNAL_ONLY` and
`weightless_supported_modes`
([#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899)).
- **Training CI retirement:** Training build and test lanes were retired
from active GitHub Actions CI workflows while retaining inference build
coverage
([#​33836](microsoft/onnxruntime#33836)).
- This is the last release for [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org/), and
we will switch to [Swift Package

[here](https://aiinfra.visualstudio.com/PublicPackages/_artifacts/feed/ORT-Nightly/PyPI/onnxruntime-gpu/overview)

## New Features

### Core APIs & Runtime

- Added `OrtApi::EpDevice_GetMemoryCapacity` (C++
`EpDevice::GetMemoryCapacity()`) and
`OrtEpFactory::GetDeviceMemoryCapacity` to query device-global total
memory and estimated currently available memory (`DEFAULT` or
`HOST_ACCESSIBLE`), with built-in and plugin CUDA EP support
([#​33447](microsoft/onnxruntime#33447)).
- Expanded the app–EP weightless contract so EPs advertise all supported
weightless modes (`weightless_supported_modes`), applications request an
explicit mode (`ModelCompilationOptions_SetWeightlessMode` /
`ep.enable_weightless_mode`), and compiled EPContext models record
`weightless_mode` and `external_dependencies` (`source_model`,
`external_weights`, `ep_context_binary`) in model metadata
([#​32899](microsoft/onnxruntime#32899)).
- Extended `session.use_external_initializer_file_buffers_directly="1"`
to `AddExternalInitializers` for zero-copy borrowing of naturally
aligned CPU buffers larger than 127 bytes on little-endian hosts, and
documented the read-only guarantee for external initializers added via
`OrtModelEditorApi::AddInitializerToGraph` with `data_is_external=true`
([#​33877](microsoft/onnxruntime#33877),
[#​33717](microsoft/onnxruntime#33717)).
- Added lock-free multi-worker pinned-memory staging
(`session.external_data_loader.*`) to accelerate external initializer
loading into GPU memory across built-in and plugin CUDA EPs
([#​33839](microsoft/onnxruntime#33839)).
- Added a session-scoped MoE/QMoE CPU/GPU offload planner and
memory-budget ledger (`session.moe.offload.*`), generic
`session.kernel_dispatch_policy` (`auto`, `latency`, `memory`, `safe`)
configuration plumbing, Level-1 workspace/prepack memory accounting
fallback for nodes absent from memory-profile CSVs, and internal
capability-planning protocol types
([#​33451](microsoft/onnxruntime#33451),
[#​33042](microsoft/onnxruntime#33042),
[#​33311](microsoft/onnxruntime#33311),
[#​33841](microsoft/onnxruntime#33841)).
- Enabled cross-thread reuse of idle device streams when graph capture
is disabled and providers register device-selection callbacks, and
enabled compile-session profiling (`<profile_file>_compile`) in
`onnxruntime_perf_test` when `-p` is used with `--compile_ep_context`
([#​33053](microsoft/onnxruntime#33053),
[#​33694](microsoft/onnxruntime#33694)).
- Made `onnxruntime_DISABLE_EXCEPTIONS` (`--disable_exceptions`) usable
without `onnxruntime_MINIMAL_BUILD` and added the
`onnxruntime_DISABLE_STREAM=ON` CMake option to disable device-stream
support in non-minimal builds
([#​33120](microsoft/onnxruntime#33120),
[#​33482](microsoft/onnxruntime#33482)).

### ONNX Opset 28 & Shared Contrib Operators

These updates affect core ONNX and contributed operator schemas and
cross-provider behavior, not only the separately released GPU plugins.

- Added ONNX opset 28 operator support: native `SpaceToDepth` (`DCR` and
`CRD`) on CPU and CUDA with version-split registrations across DML, JS,
WebGPU, and QNN; opset-28 floating floor-modulus `Mod` on CPU, CUDA, and
DML; opset-28 `BFloat16` support for `Compress`, `OneHot`,
`ReverseSequence`, `Unique`, `Celu`, and `Einsum` on CPU (plus
`Compress`, `OneHot`, and `ReverseSequence` on CUDA); and `BFloat16`
`Pad` (opsets 21–25) on CPU and CUDA
([#​32362](microsoft/onnxruntime#32362),
[#​32369](microsoft/onnxruntime#32369),
[#​32378](microsoft/onnxruntime#32378),
[#​34062](microsoft/onnxruntime#34062)).
- Extended `GatedDeltaNet` with Kimi Delta Attention (KDA)
per-key-dimension decay across CPU, CUDA, and WebGPU, and extended
`GatedDeltaNet` and `CausalConvWithState` state/gate handling for
multi-token speculative decoding
([#​33817](microsoft/onnxruntime#33817),
[#​33471](microsoft/onnxruntime#33471)).
- Added an optional `query_seqlens` input to `GroupQueryAttention` to
skip right-padded prefill tokens and idle batch entries
(`query_seqlens[b] = 0`) on CPU and CUDA, and added `q_norm_epsilon` /
`k_norm_epsilon` attributes to preserve distinct Q and K normalization
epsilons during GQA pre-norm fusion
([#​33503](microsoft/onnxruntime#33503),
[#​33505](microsoft/onnxruntime#33505),
[#​33832](microsoft/onnxruntime#33832),
[#​33363](microsoft/onnxruntime#33363)).
- Defined the INT3 `QMoE` v1 packed-code contract, added opt-in
post-SiLU clipping (`swiglu_limit_after_activation`) and tanh-`GEGLU`
(`activation_type="geglu"`) support to MoE/QMoE schemas, and added
`GatherPacked` (CPU/CUDA), `MatMulPacked` (CUDA, including native Bolt
`global_scale`), and `MoEPacked` (CUDA) to consume native
GGUF/block-packed quantized weights directly
([#​33394](microsoft/onnxruntime#33394),
[#​33954](microsoft/onnxruntime#33954),
[#​33633](microsoft/onnxruntime#33633),
[#​33953](microsoft/onnxruntime#33953),
[#​33962](microsoft/onnxruntime#33962)).
- Added `PackedSparseAttentionIndexerMerge` for multi-token prediction
index sharing and optional `state_status` / mid-state outputs on
`PackedSparseAttentionIndexer` across CUDA and WebGPU; extended
`GatedAdd` with an optional projected `gate_weight` across CPU, CUDA,
and WebGPU; and supported empty unpacked weights in CPU and WebGPU
`MatMulNBits`
([#​33224](microsoft/onnxruntime#33224),
[#​33383](microsoft/onnxruntime#33383),
[#​33472](microsoft/onnxruntime#33472),
[#​33470](microsoft/onnxruntime#33470),
[#​33559](microsoft/onnxruntime#33559)).
- Registered core contrib schemas for provider-targeted LLM and
speculative-decoding operators, including `SwiGLU`, `RMSNormRotary`,
`HyperConnectionLowRankMix`, `RouterGateUpProj`,
`SpeculativePrefixCommit`, `GatedDeltaNetStateReplay`,
`ConvStateReplay`, and `MatMulNBitsQLoRA`
([#​32126](microsoft/onnxruntime#32126),
[#​33469](microsoft/onnxruntime#33469),
[#​33384](microsoft/onnxruntime#33384),
[#​33650](microsoft/onnxruntime#33650),
[#​33474](microsoft/onnxruntime#33474),
[#​33213](microsoft/onnxruntime#33213),
[#​33493](microsoft/onnxruntime#33493),
[#​33370](microsoft/onnxruntime#33370)).

### Plugin Execution Provider Infrastructure

- Fixed an `OrtMemoryInfo` ABI mismatch across the ORT/plugin EP
boundary by converting `OrtMemoryInfo` instances exclusively through the
C API ([#​33571](microsoft/onnxruntime#33571)).
- Zero-initialized `OrtEpFactory` structs in provider-bridge EP
factories so unimplemented optional callbacks are null, and prevented
double DLL initialization and handle leaks when probing and registering
plugin EP libraries
([#​33117](microsoft/onnxruntime#33117),
[#​33701](microsoft/onnxruntime#33701)).
- Hardened portable model-package EP recreation, custom-domain
preservation, UTF-8 path handling, and `shared_assets` path confinement
and symlink validation
([#​32790](microsoft/onnxruntime#32790),
[#​33826](microsoft/onnxruntime#33826)).

Updated [Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk](https://github.com/microsoft/vstest)
from 18.11.0 to 18.12.0.

<summary>Release notes</summary>

_Sourced from [Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk's
releases](https://github.com/microsoft/vstest/releases)._

## 18.12.0

## Security fix

This release includes the fix for CVE-2026-105544, an elevation of
privilege vulnerability in the VSTest artifact post-processor. The
post-processor could consume a forged `executionComplete.json` written
by another local user, and then run attacker-controlled output handling.

Affected: `Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` 18.11.0 and earlier. Every
version from 18.11.1 on is fixed, including 18.12.0.

`Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` is the VSTest build that we ship into the
.NET SDK. The recommended way to get this fix is to update your .NET SDK
to the latest patched version, see the advisory for the SDK versions.

The fix is also released in the `Microsoft.TestPlatform.CLI` package,
for completeness. That package is rarely used directly. It is not a
dependency of `Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk` or `Microsoft.TestPlatform`, so
those packages do not bring it in.

Details: microsoft/vstest#16654 and
dotnet/announcements#517
