## Summary
- Keep the Python test launcher close to plain `pytest -n auto`, move
nightly tests under `tests/nightly/python`, remove obsolete launchers
and collection bookkeeping, and partition CPU/GPU jobs with explicit
`gpu` marker expressions.
- Repair exact-pointer regressions at their owning boundaries: packed
raw-string ABI values, CUDA/Metal matrix intrinsic pointers, internal TE
extern offsets, MetaSchedule scalar annotations, localized
auto-tensorization scope matching, and typed DLTensor fixture fields.
- Preserve typed workspace calls in TIR and cast pointer-returning
external calls in CodeGenC, covered by a plain-TIRx 1024-byte global
workspace that is compiled as C++.
- Finish phasing out value-bearing Relax `R.Prim` annotations by
requiring an explicit dtype, removing obsolete value-based contracts,
and expressing the DISCO rank-dependent slices as explicit scalar
`call_tir` inputs.
- Gate the distributed callback on the optional DISCO runtime, NCCL, and
at least two GPUs so capability-limited jobs skip instead of failing.
- Remove the non-demonstrating pointer probe, use direct TVMScript
comparison for packed strings, and remove the four designated legacy
testing modules.
The seven repaired CPU categories cover packed raw strings (7 failures),
CUDA/Metal matrix access-pointer types (7), internal TE extern offsets
(1), a typed DLTensor fixture (1), MetaSchedule scalar annotations (1),
CodeGenC workspace return casts (12), and localized auto-tensorization
storage-scope matching (19).
## Validation
- Base: `ded6ad8dd212869c881efb5590f8a33fc972728e`
- Head: `a7277e86dbcfe0638c8c252d36760859c4ab4297`
- All 35 locally available original failing node IDs pass across the
focused runs.
- The full focused TE, TIR builtin-lowering, and CodeGenC files pass: 61
tests.
- The complete touched Relax/TVMScript set plus
PlanAndUpdateBufferAllocationLocation passes with 784 passed, 20
skipped, and 1 expected failure.
- The DISCO callback collects and skips when its runtime or two-GPU
environment is unavailable.
- Six direct mapping tests, twelve tensor-core sketches, and the dp4a
sketch pass unchanged.
- The compiler rebuild, branch-wide pre-commit hooks, and full-range
whitespace checks pass.
- The 13 broad CBLAS/TFLite nodes remain dependency-gated; their owning
TE and generated-C regressions compile.
No merge is included in this change.
The current unittest folder is too large and contains too many files and
too many components. This PR refactors the unittest folder by moving the
files to the corresponding folders.
* [MicroTVM][PyTest] Explicitly skip MicroTVM unittests.
Refactor unit tests so they will show as skipped if `USE_MICRO=OFF`.
* Updates following PR review.
- Updated to avoid name shadowing of BaseTestHandler
- Updated test_micro_transport to use fixture for setup. Ended up
needing to refactor to use pytest instead of unittest, split up test
functionality during refactor.
