DeepSpeedZeroOptimizer provides a rich, evolving list of keyword arguments. It is tedious and error-prone to list all of them in its subclasses. As an example, the recent introduction of zenflow_config in the middle of that list has caused unit test failures (e.g. https://github.com/deepspeedai/DeepSpeed/actions/runs/18560070656/job/52906645682?pr=7633) Convert the keyword argument list in DeepSpeedZeroOptimizer subclasses to **kwargs for the consistency of configurable items and their default values. Passing an unknown parameter to such subclasses will now raise an error on their call to DeepSpeedZeroOptimizer.__init__() instead of their own __init__(). It still ensures that typo in such parameters fail early. Signed-off-by: Junjie Mao <junjie.mao@linux.alibaba.com>

It looks the CI still used the old code base (see https://github.com/deepspeedai/DeepSpeed/actions/runs/18582440763/job/52979937206?pr=7634#step:5:473). @sfc-gh-truwase Any idea what's going wrong here? |
