Fall back when the GGML extension has no q8_0_pack.
When get_cuda_ext_ggml() returns its compiled module, quantize_q8_0() calls the unregistered q8_0_pack method and can raise AttributeError before reaching the PyTorch fallback.

Preserve GGML rounding below half-integers.
For a block whose maximum is 127, d_float is 1. The float32 value 0.4999999701976776 then reaches line 63 unchanged. Adding 0.5 rounds the intermediate result to 1.0, so this encoder writes quant 1. GGML’s roundf writes 0. The serialized Q8_0 payload is therefore not byte-compatible for this rare edge case.
Use torch.round for non-ties and handle exact half-integers separately:
Suggested fix
- rounded = normalized.sign() * (normalized.abs() + 0.5).floor()
+ magnitude = normalized.abs()
+ rounded = normalized.sign() * torch.where(
+ magnitude.frac() == 0.5,
+ magnitude.floor() + 1,
+ magnitude.round(),
+ )📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
