H100_PCIe-PyTorch-Perf-1 runs the single benchmark in l0_perf.yml on nodes selected by tensorrt/test_type: perf. Its legacy CSV checker reports differences but disables regression failures. The dedicated stage and reporting code therefore do not enforce a performance regression gate.
QA still uses test_perf.py. Retiring the CI benchmark needs CPU regression coverage for that harness, and change-based test selection must run that coverage when the harness changes.
Solution
Remove l0_perf.yml, its H100 stage, dedicated node selector, and the legacy perfMode plumbing through Kubernetes and Slurm.
Delete the obsolete baseline/checker/diff/report tools and requirements, and regenerate their lint configuration.
Retain the shared QA benchmark framework, --perf, QA lists, and active PerfSanity stages.
Add tests/unittest/others/test_perf_qa_functional.py: dynamic pytest generation and fixture visibility; bench/serve commands; metric parsing and CSV/YAML output; setup/process/metric/output failures; and serve cleanup. GPU processes are simulated; the production harness and writers execute. Assertions protect required cases, metric values, and bounded cleanup while allowing harmless reordering, additional metrics, and timeout-policy changes.
Use the existing unittest/others entry in l0_cpu.yml. CBTS uses static importer relationships to select that CPU coverage for the harness and its imported configuration helpers. QA-only helpers select CPU coverage; shared helpers retain existing PerfSanity matches. Missing CPU coverage forces fallback. Remove the fixture that pretended the retired benchmark was still in a CI test-db.
Isolate the nested pytest session from third-party plugin autoloading, avoiding the rerun/xdist status-server thread leak observed in CI. Cover timeout recovery with a kill followed by a reap.
Document required --test-list and --output-dir options and update the runnable QA example.
Test Coverage
Validation
12 QA functional tests passed on pytest 8.4.2 with pytest-rerunfailures 16.7, xdist 3.8.0, and thread-leak detection enabled in the outer session. The original nested-session leak was reproduced before the fix. Local macOS execution uses import adapters for unavailable build/MPI and platform-only modules.
94 targeted CBTS tests passed. Actual test-db checks confirm that pytorch_model_config.py and sampler_options_config.py select only l0_cpu; shared _model_paths.py and warmup_pass.py retain CPU and PerfSanity coverage. Regression fixtures also cover a newly named helper and missing CPU coverage.
Pre-commit, DCO, and git diff --check passed.
Existing retirement checks cover 12 infrastructure pipeline tests, Groovy syntax and call-argument positions, ordinary pod/pytest/shard behavior, Slurm exit propagation, and the remaining 122 literal stage entries.
CI on 5b6d8f5 executed all 11 original QA harness cases on both CPU architectures: 10 passed per architecture, while the dynamic-generation case failed on the plugin thread leak fixed here. The run also had a separate VisualGen numerical-comparison failure. Full L0 validation of the updated revision is pending.

Changes
Legacy L0 performance mode retirement
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Remove perfMode from test execution jenkins/L0_Test.groovy, jenkins/scripts/slurm_run.sh
Jenkins runner interfaces, shard processing, pytest command construction, Kubernetes selection, and job wiring no longer use perfMode. Jenkins and Slurm no longer run performance-result checks or generate reports.
The comparison helpers, report generator, requirements file, and l0_perf test definition are deleted. Performance guidance and lint file lists are updated.
Select CPU QA coverage in CBTS jenkins/scripts/cbts/*, tests/unittest/scripts/cbts/test_tests_def.py
TestsDefRule adds CPU functional test coverage for QA performance harness source changes and returns fallback when that coverage is absent. CBTS perfsanity matching no longer treats l0_perf as a performance stem.
NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM#21383: The issue requests removal of stale paths from legacy-files.txt; this pull request removes entries for deleted legacy performance tools.

Explanation
The title "[None][infra] Retire legacy L0 perf testing and protect QA benchmarks" follows the repository template with a [None] ticket tag and an [infra] type. It matches the main change in the changeset: removing the l0_perf.yml stage, the perfMode plumbing, and the obsolete baseline/checker/diff/report tools. It also names the protection of QA benchmarks, which is backed by the new test_perf_qa_functional.py tests and the CBTS selection changes. The title is 10 words and 69 characters, so it is concise and specific.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The PR description follows the required template sections (Description, Test Coverage, PR Checklist). It explains the problem (the l0_perf.yml benchmark disables regression failures) and the solution (removing the legacy perf stage, perfMode plumbing, and obsolete tools, while adding CPU functional coverage for test_perf.py and CBTS selection rules). It also lists validation steps, including unit tests, CBTS tests, pre-commit, and a CI run with known failures. The checklist is marked complete. The title follows the required format only partially, since it is not part of this description check. The description is substantive and matches the raw summary. Minor gaps: the Description section does not name the PR title ticket, and some validation claims (such as the 12 vs. 11 vs. 94 test counts) are not reconciled with the PR objectives, which report 11 QA tests and 88 CBTS tests. The author also notes that full L0 validation is pending.

assert_called() passes when wait() runs before terminate(). It also passes when no wait follows termination. The current stop_server() calls terminate() and then wait(timeout=30), so the current code reaps the process. A future change that drops the post-terminate wait would still pass this test and leave the child process unreaped.
Assert the call order on the mock:
process.terminate.assert_called()
- process.wait.assert_called()+ names = [call[0] for call in process.method_calls]+ assert "wait" in names[names.index("terminate") + 1:]

Addressed the cleanup-order follow-up in 5b6d8f5. The test now requires a wait() after terminate(), while retaining positive, finite timeouts without fixing their value. All 11 QA functional tests pass; a wait-before-terminate mutation fails in all four serve scenarios, and changed finite timeouts still pass. Pre-commit and DCO passed.
The plain MagicMock makes the initial wait(timeout=30) return normally. The assertions therefore pass even if stop_server() omits the wait after kill(). Configure the first wait to raise subprocess.TimeoutExpired, then assert the wait → kill → wait sequence. Check the finite timeout only on the first wait because the fallback wait intentionally has no timeout.

The retirement side is consistent: a tree-wide grep finds no leftover perfMode, l0_perf, -Perf-, or references to the deleted scripts, and the Groovy signature changes line up with every call site.
The CBTS part is narrower than the protection it replaces. QA_PERF_HARNESS_SOURCES only covers test_perf.py and utils.py, but test_perf.py also imports pytorch_model_config.py, sampler_options_config.py, _model_paths.py and warmup_pass.py. Before this PR the importer index routed a change to e.g. pytorch_model_config.py to the stage that ran test_perf.py. Now test_perf.py is in no test-db block, so the importer anchor is dropped and the file falls back to the perf/ directory match: GPU PerfSanity stages run (they never import the module) and the new CPU test, the only thing that does import it, is not selected. I reproduced this with the PR's own _make_perf_rule fixture for all three helper modules. Details and a suggested fix inline.
Two smaller points:
The description says validation was on macOS with import shims for build/MPI modules. Please make sure the /bot run result for this revision actually shows test_perf_qa_functional.py collected and passing in the CPU stage (not skipped on import), since that is the only place the real defs.conftest import chain gets exercised.
[None] is fine for an infra retirement, but the new CBTS behaviour is a selection-policy change; a short tracking ticket would help whoever next touches tests_def.py.

Reviewed the infra changes at 314010e. The retired benchmark is removed consistently from the pipeline and Slurm paths; QA coverage and conservative CBTS fallback are retained. The 12 QA harness cases passed on both CPU architectures in current-head L0 run 68036. No blocking infra concerns. The remaining L0 failure/aborted stages still need CI triage before merge.
