Summary

  • Added resolveBuildBranch(globalVars) as the shared branch resolver.
  • Published the resolved branch as globalVars["build_branch"].
  • Updated Docker builds and build_info.txt generation to use the resolved branch.
  • Updated get_job_info() to use globalVars["build_branch"].
  • Pre-merge records now use github-pr-<N>.
  • Post-merge records now use the actual release branch.
  • Documented the s_branch source and format.
  • Added regression tests for branch propagation and invalid metadata handling.
  • Existing records are not backfilled.

Dev Engineer Review

  • The branch value now has one source of truth.
  • The pipeline, Docker metadata, build_info.txt, and get_job_info() use the same value.
  • The change removes incorrect Jenkins folder-name parsing.
  • Missing or invalid branch metadata produces an empty branch in get_job_info().
  • The fallback to main remains limited to branch resolution when no GitLab branch is available.
  • No configuration files or test-list files changed.
  • No performance risks or unintended scope changes were identified.
  • End-to-end validation remains pending for the next post-merge release-branch build.
  • The failed L0_MergeRequest_PR CI pipeline requires review before another CI run.

QA Engineer Review

  • Added test functions in tests/unittest/others/test_perf_regression_branch.py:
    • test_release_branch_survives_a_main_folder_job_url
    • test_github_pr_branch_is_published_verbatim
    • test_gitlab_mr_source_branch_is_published_verbatim
    • test_main_branch_is_not_special_cased
    • test_unpublished_branch_is_empty_never_guessed
    • test_malformed_branch_is_empty_never_stringified
    • test_branch_is_not_recovered_from_the_job_url
    • test_unparsable_global_vars_does_not_raise
  • Modified test code in tests/integration/defs/perf/perf_regression_utils.py.
  • Updated documentation in tests/integration/defs/perf/README_perf_regression_system.md.
  • No corresponding entries were added to test-db/ or qa/.
  • Verdict: needs follow-up because CI coverage failed and end-to-end validation is pending.

Description

s_branch in the perf-sanity OpenSearch index is wrong for every row: it is always "main".

get_job_info() (tests/integration/defs/perf/perf_regression_utils.py) derived it by scraping the Jenkins job URL:

branch_match = re.search(r"/job/LLM/job/([^/]+)/job/", job_url)

That segment is the Jenkins folder the job definition lives in, not the branch being built. Every build jenkins/L0_MergeRequest.groovy drives lives in the LLM/main folder — including release-branch post-merge builds, which are selected by env.gitlabBranch, not by a per-branch job folder. So the expression is a constant.

Ground truth from the affected build's own artifact, llm-artifacts/LLM/main/L0_PostMerge/2911/build_info.txt:

commit=60ef710bfd08af3fc9ed42a86179816029973f15
branch=release/1.3.0rc22.post1
jenkins_url=.../job/LLM/job/main/job/L0_PostMerge/2911/

while OpenSearch holds s_branch="main" for that same s_commit.

Why this is not cosmetic. job_url contains L0_PostMerge, so such a row gets b_is_post_merge=True and passes the only filter the history query applies (get_history_data), and s_branch is not in match_keys — so release-branch data points join main's baseline and history for the same case. Release-vs-main deltas then read as main regressions, and can equally mask real ones. Downstream, anything keyed on s_branch is also wrong: consumers that format bisect inputs as {s_branch}@{s_commit} emit main@60ef710bfd08, a reference no branch contains.

Fix

Resolve the branch once, in the pipeline, and publish it — rather than having consumers re-derive it from a URL that cannot express it.

  • resolveBuildBranch() becomes the single source of truth. It replaces the 4-line idiom that was duplicated verbatim at three sites (both Build-Docker-Images stages and Upload Build Info).
  • The result is published as globalVars["build_branch"]. This channel was chosen because it already reaches pytest on every stage type: globalVars is serialized into every child job by launchJob, and globalVars is already in the SLURM --container-env allow-list in L0_Test.groovy. So this needs no new job parameter and no allow-list edit — either of which would have failed silently by dropping the value on one stage type.
  • build_info.txt now consumes the same published value, so it and s_branch cannot drift.
  • get_job_info() reads globalVars["build_branch"], with no fallback to the old regex: the regex cannot distinguish "no branch was published" from "the branch really is main", and a wrong branch is worse than an empty one for exactly the reason above.

Not refactored on purpose: the fourth env.gitlabBranch use, in the OSS Compliance (PLC) stage, must stay a checkout-able git ref and must not become a github-pr-<N> label.

Behavior change to be aware of

Pre-merge rows now carry s_branch="github-pr-<N>" instead of "main". That is the identifier the pipeline already uses for its image tags and writes into build_info.txt, so the row becomes directly comparable to its own build artifact. Pre-merge rows are excluded from history by the b_is_post_merge: True filter, so regression detection is unaffected.

Existing rows are not backfilled here. They can be audited without credentials by comparing each row's s_branch against {s_artifact_url}/build_info.txt.

Deliberately out of scope

Noted here for follow-up rather than bundled in:

  • is_post_merge is still inferred from a "PostMerge" in job_url substring test.
  • b_is_pr_job is written to every document and read nowhere.
  • When action_info.parents is empty, job_url / job_id stay empty with no fallback to BUILD_URL / JOB_NAME — which also empties s_artifact_url.

Test Coverage

No new automated test: the changed code is CI plumbing whose inputs (env.gitlabBranch, globalVars propagation through launchJob and --container-env) only exist inside a Jenkins run, and get_job_info() has no existing unit-test harness.

Verified statically instead:

  • Grepped every consumer of the perf-sanity s_branch. The only in-repo reader/writer is perf_regression_utils.py itself; jenkins/scripts/pulse_in_pipeline_scanning/* also has an s_branch but writes it to a different index from its own source, so it is unaffected.
  • Confirmed globalVars is passed to child jobs by launchJob (which filters only cached_changed_file_list) and is present in the envVarNames --container-env allow-list in jenkins/L0_Test.groovy, so the new key reaches pytest on both k8s and SLURM multi-node stages with no further change.
  • Confirmed the three replaced call sites were byte-identical, and that the two docker sites' derived branchTag = branch.replaceAll('/', '_') is unchanged.
  • ruff format --diff and ruff check clean on the edited Python file.

End-to-end confirmation is the next post-merge build on a release branch: its uploaded s_branch should equal the branch= line in that build's build_info.txt (previously main vs release/...).

Walkthrough

The Jenkins pipeline now resolves one shared build branch value. Docker jobs and build metadata use that value. Performance regression utilities read the published metadata instead of parsing Jenkins job URLs. Regression tests cover valid, missing, malformed, and unparsable branch metadata.

Changes

Build branch propagation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolve and publish the build branch
jenkins/L0_MergeRequest.groovy
The pipeline adds BUILD_BRANCH and resolveBuildBranch(globalVars). Docker jobs and build metadata use the resolved value.
Use and validate the published branch
tests/integration/defs/perf/perf_regression_utils.py, tests/integration/defs/perf/README_perf_regression_system.md, tests/unittest/others/test_perf_regression_branch.py
get_job_info reads string-valued globalVars["build_branch"]. Documentation defines the branch formats. Regression tests cover valid and invalid metadata.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 4878c

The PR changes perf-sanity branch attribution from Jenkins-folder parsing to the pipeline-selected branch, improving release-branch data joins. It is mergeable with owner follow-up for a pre-merge branch-label documentation mismatch and a missing required copyright header; these are bounded risks rather than merge blockers.

…the Jenkins folder

`get_job_info()` derived `s_branch` by scraping the Jenkins job URL:

    re.search(r"/job/LLM/job/([^/]+)/job/", job_url)

That segment is the Jenkins *folder* the job definition lives in, not the
branch being built. Every build `jenkins/L0_MergeRequest.groovy` drives lives
in the `LLM/main` folder -- including release-branch post-merge builds, which
are selected by `env.gitlabBranch` rather than by a per-branch job folder. So
the expression yielded the constant `"main"` for every row the perf-sanity
system uploads.

Ground truth from the affected build's own artifact,
`llm-artifacts/LLM/main/L0_PostMerge/2911/build_info.txt`:

    commit=60ef710bfd08af3fc9ed42a86179816029973f15
    branch=release/1.3.0rc22.post1
    jenkins_url=.../job/LLM/job/main/job/L0_PostMerge/2911/

while OpenSearch holds `s_branch="main"` for that same commit.

This is not cosmetic. `job_url` contains `L0_PostMerge`, so such a row has
`b_is_post_merge=True` and passes the only filter the history query applies;
`s_branch` is not in `match_keys`, so release-branch points join main's
baseline and history for the same case. Release-vs-main deltas then read as
main regressions (and can mask real ones), and consumers that key off
`s_branch` -- e.g. bisect inputs formatted as `{s_branch}@{s_commit}` --
produce references no branch contains.

Fix: resolve the branch once in the pipeline and publish it, instead of having
consumers re-derive it from a URL that cannot express it.

- `resolveBuildBranch()` becomes the single source of truth, replacing the
  4-line idiom that was duplicated verbatim at three sites (both
  Build-Docker-Images stages and Upload Build Info).
- The result is published as `globalVars["build_branch"]`. `globalVars` is
  already serialized into every child job by `launchJob` and is already in the
  SLURM `--container-env` allow-list in `L0_Test.groovy`, so no new job
  parameter and no allow-list change is needed -- both of which would have
  failed silently by dropping the value.
- `build_info.txt` now consumes the same published value, so it and `s_branch`
  cannot drift.
- `get_job_info()` reads `globalVars["build_branch"]`, with no fallback to the
  old regex: it cannot distinguish "no branch was published" from "the branch
  really is main", and a wrong branch is worse than an empty one. For the same
  reason the value is taken only when it is a string -- an absent or malformed
  one becomes `""`, never a stringified `"['main']"`.

Behavior change to be aware of: GitHub PR builds -- the ones that carry
`github_pr_api_url` -- now upload `s_branch="github-pr-<N>"` instead of
`"main"`, matching the identifier the pipeline already uses for image tags and
`build_info.txt`. GitLab MR builds carry no `github_pr_api_url`, so they upload
`env.gitlabBranch`, i.e. their source branch. Neither is a regression-detection
change: pre-merge rows are excluded from history by the `b_is_post_merge: True`
filter. It does make every row's `s_branch` directly comparable to its build's
`build_info.txt`.

Existing rows are not backfilled here.

Deliberately out of scope, noted for follow-up: `is_post_merge` is still
inferred from a substring of `job_url`; `b_is_pr_job` is written but read
nowhere; and when `action_info.parents` is empty, `job_url`/`job_id` stay empty
with no fallback to `BUILD_URL`/`JOB_NAME`.

Restores tests/unittest/others/test_perf_regression_branch.py, which the
rewritten head had removed, so the GitHub PR, release, missing and malformed
build_branch cases are exercised again.

The module is loaded by file path with defs.trt_test_alternative and
open_search_db_utils stubbed, so the case runs on a CPU-only host: importing
defs.perf.perf_regression_utils normally would pull in defs/__init__.py's
torch._inductor pre-import and the OpenSearch client, neither of which
get_job_info reaches.

The pre-commit release check runs ruff-format on this path (ruff hooks are
denylist-gated on legacy_files, so a new file is in scope; yapf/isort are
allowlist-gated on common_files and are not). The file had been formatted to
yapf's 79-column style instead, which ruff reverses.

up to 46 for disaggregated. Most of those fields are tunables: knobs like
l_max_batch_size, s_kv_cache_dtype, s_spec_decoding_type,
l_force_num_accepted_tokens, l_iterations and b_streaming are adjusted
specifically to improve perf on the same test. Changing one forked the case
into a brand-new identity with an empty baseline, so the tuning's effect --
the reason for the change -- became invisible, and the case had to accrue
three fresh data points before it could be gated again.

The remaining fields are fixed parameters (l_isl, l_osl, l_concurrency,
s_model_name, l_gpus, l_tp/ep/pp/cp, l_gpus_per_node). Those never change for
a given case and are already encoded in s_test_case_name, so keying on them
adds nothing.

Key on the test case name instead, plus the three things the name does not
carry: s_gpu_type (the same case name runs on more than one GPU type),
s_runtime (the same case name runs on both aggr_server and
multi_node_aggr_server) and s_branch.

Validated against the live 90-day index (11,418 documents): grouping by name
yields zero groups in which any fixed parameter varies (0/123 aggr, 0/85
multi-node aggr, 0/110 disagg), so the coarsening never merges two different
tests. It does merge 37 groups that the old key had split on a tunable --
every one of them on l_force_num_accepted_tokens. 35 of the 37 keep an
unchanged regression band; 2 shift, which is the expected one-off transient
as a rejoined case's rolling baseline re-settles.

s_benchmark_mode is deliberately not a match key. It is null on every
aggregated record, and on disaggregated records it exactly equals the test
case name's prefix (3036/3036 documents), so it carries no information the
name does not. Adding it would also break matching against records written
before the field existed, since benchmark_data_matches treats None and "e2e"
as different values.

Pre-merge branch substitution: s_branch is now a match key, and history
queries are restricted to b_is_post_merge documents. A pre-merge run records
s_branch = "github-pr-<N>", which has no post-merge history, so matching on
it would return nothing and turn every pre-merge regression check into a
silent no-op. process_and_upload_test_results therefore resolves a baseline
branch (PERF_BASELINE_BRANCH, default "main") and substitutes it into a
lookup-only copy of the data before get_common_values -- which must come
first, since it feeds the OpenSearch must clause and would otherwise filter
the history away before matching runs. The uploaded documents keep their true
s_branch. Callers that do not key on s_branch (module perf, visual gen) are
untouched.

This completes the branch half of NVIDIA#18127, which fixed s_branch derivation but
noted that s_branch was still absent from match_keys, leaving release-branch
points joining main's baseline.

Two pre-existing issues are resolved as side effects:

- The gen_only filter dropping the ctx/gen transceiver backend from the key
  compared against "gen_s_cache_transceiver_backend" while the prefixing
  helper produces "s_gen_cache_transceiver_backend", so it never matched and
  was dead code. It is deleted along with the block it lived in.
- world_size is read by jenkins/scripts/perf/submit.py to size the Slurm
  allocation but never parsed into ServerConfig, so a 1-GPU and a 4-GPU
  variant of the same config shared one baseline. Their names differ, so
  keying on the name separates them. world_size is still unparsed and would
  matter again if anything keyed on l_gpus.

match_mode: "scenario" becomes inert -- not forking a case when knobs drift is
now the default for every case. The option is still parsed so existing yamls
stay valid; removing it from the ~30 configs that set it is left as a
follow-up to keep this change to one concern.
