 This decorator is intended to make hardware-aware, cross-platform test authoring easier and more robust for CI/CD environments. The `hardware_test` decorator in `vllm-omni/tests/helpers/mark.py` performs the following actions:

 1. **Applies platform and resource markers**  
-   Adds the appropriate pytest markers for each specified hardware platform (e.g., `cuda`, `rocm`, `xpu`, `npu`) and resource type (e.g., `L4`, `H100`, `MI325`, `B60`, `A2`, `A3`).
+   Adds the appropriate pytest markers for each specified hardware platform (e.g., `cuda`, `rocm`, `xpu`, `npu`) and resource type (e.g., `L4`, `H100`, `H200`, `B200`, `MI325`, `B60`, `A2`, `A3`).
   ```python
   @pytest.mark.cuda
   @pytest.mark.L4
   ```
-2. **Handles multi-card (distributed) scenarios**  
-   For tests requiring multiple cards, it automatically adds distributed markers such as `distributed_cuda`, `distributed_rocm`, or `distributed_npu`.
-   ```python
-   @pytest.mark.distributed_cuda(num_cards=num_cards)
-   ```
+2. **Handles card-count filtering**  
+   Adds a filterable marker `cards_{n}` (including `cards_1` when `num_cards` is omitted / 1). Use this with the SKU and platform, e.g. `-m "H100 and cards_4 and cuda"` vs `-m "H100 and cards_2 and cuda"`. Any multi-card CUDA test is `-m "cuda and not cards_1"`.
+
+   When `res` lists more than one platform **and** `num_cards` differs by platform, `@hardware_test` collects **one variant per platform** so those `cards_{n}` marks do not stack. `-m "H100 and cards_4 and cuda"` then selects only the CUDA/H100 4-card variant, not a ROCm 2-card sibling. The same count on every platform stays a single item.
 3. **Supports flexible card requirements**  
   Accepts `num_cards` as either a single integer for all platforms or as a dictionary with per-platform values. If not specified, defaults to 1 card per platform.

 4. **Integrates resource validation**  
-   On CUDA, adds a skip marker (`skipif_cuda`) if the system does not have the required number of devices.
-   Support for `skipif_rocm` and `skipif_npu` will be implemented later.
+   On CUDA and XPU, when `num_cards > 1`, attaches pytest's built-in `skipif` if the machine has fewer devices than requested. This is not a named `skipif_*` marker and is not used for `-m` filtering.

 5. **Works with pytest filtering**  
-   Allows tests to be filtered and selected at runtime using standard pytest marker expressions (e.g., `-m "distributed_cuda and L4"`).

 lease so a weaker overlapping lookup cannot return a lease after a stronger
 validation has denied the artifact.

+If publishing the external deny marker fails, lookup returns a retryable
+storage failure and marks the artifact directory with a persistent invalidation
+mode before releasing the shared lock. Cooperating readers check that mode both
+while opening and immediately before returning a lease. Lookup then makes a
+bounded attempt to take the exclusive artifact lock and quarantine the entry;
+the quarantine transition removes the internal mode marker. If a cooperating
+builder replaces the marked inode while the locks are exchanged, containment
+preserves that new publication instead of quarantining it. If neither the
+external marker nor the directory-mode marker can be persisted, cross-process
+exclusion cannot be guaranteed on an unavailable filesystem and the domain
+must remain failed rather than treating the artifact as an ordinary invalid
+cache entry.
+
+New publications carry the internal invalidation mode through the staging
+rename. Hardening clears it and is the logical authority transition for a
+process crash; the temporary- and artifact-parent syncs then make the rename
+durable, with an artifact-inode sync first making the hardened mode durable. A
+process that dies before hardening leaves a persistently denied
+entry, while one that dies after successful hardening leaves an authoritative
+ready entry. Any synchronous failure after rename is marked invalid and
+contained in quarantine before `PUBLICATION_FAILED` is returned, so that
+nonretryable result cannot later resolve as a ready hit. If the filesystem
+refuses both the inode marker and the quarantine move, the store instead returns
+a retryable storage failure with `outcome_uncertain` details; as with deny-marker
+double failure, cross-process exclusion cannot be guaranteed until storage
+recovers. Once the artifact-parent sync succeeds, a later artifact- or
+build-lock release error is logged and lookup resolves the committed entry
+instead of reporting a contradictory publication failure. The same authority
+rule applies when a competing publisher already installed byte-identical
+semantic content; staging-cleanup errors are retried without downgrading that
+validated ready entry to publication failure.
+
+Before widening a hardened artifact for a lifecycle move, the store durably
+sets the same invalidation mode. A process crash before rename therefore leaves
+the writable source denied. After rename, the store re-hardens the destination
+but retains the marker until both parent-directory syncs make the move durable;
+only then does it durably clear the marker. An interrupted move therefore leaves
+a marked transition that the next exact-key lifecycle operation re-hardens.
+Explicit cleanup uses the locked move and retries exact-key
+`.cleanup.*` tombstones left by an interrupted removal; a later build performs
+the same tombstone reconciliation before producing replacement content.
+
+An operational failure while inspecting a noncooperative competing publication
+is a retryable storage failure. The competing entry remains authoritative and
+is not mislabeled as corrupt or quarantined merely because its manifest could
+not be read transiently.

+## MiniMax-H3 adapter-declared schedules
+
+MiniMax-H3 supports two few-step mechanisms that must not be conflated:
+
+- **Checkpoint-pinned schedule**: a merged release writes `base_schedule` into
+  `model_index.json`. Requests must pass `num_inference_steps` as the interval
+  count (for example `4` for `[1.0, 0.7, 0.4, 0.15, 0.0]`).
+- **Runtime Turbo LoRA**: LightX2V Turbo artifacts request five sigma points and
+  enforce `flow_shift=6`, `audio_flow_shift=3`.
+- **Runtime native LoRA**: FlashGen-style artifacts declare
+  `key_format=minimax-h3-native` and embed `base_schedule` in safetensors
+  metadata. When active, the adapter schedule overrides the base checkpoint and
+  requests must use the interval-count contract (`num_inference_steps=4`).
+  Request-mode generation may omit the field and take the count from the adapter
+  schedule; step execution requires it explicitly, because the step scheduler
+  derives the total step count from the request before the adapter schedule is
+  known.
+
+Native artifacts also declare `qkv_layout=grouped`. The H3 loader reorders fused
+`qkv_proj` LoRA rows with the same `_reorder_grouped_qkv_to_qkv` helper used for
+base-weight loading, then binds the packed Q/K/V slices through the legacy PEFT
+manager without modifying `DiffusionLoRAManager`.
+
+Both runtime adapters run with distributed layerwise offload in request-mode
+generation, where the manager keeps the LoRA A/B buffers resident on the compute
+device while DLO streams the base blocks. MiniMax-H3 step execution still
+rejects DLO, so `--step-execution` cannot be combined with
+`--enable-distributed-layerwise-offload`. Model-level CPU offload and standard
+layerwise offload are rejected in every mode, because the dynamic LoRA tensors
+are neither parameters nor registered buffers and therefore do not participate
+in those weight lifecycles.

+Video input uses the same session. PyAV demuxes JPEG frames at `--video-fps`
+(default 1.0) and vLLM `load_audio` extracts a 16 kHz mono WAV unless
+`--input-wav` overrides the soundtrack. Frames keep their capture size
+(`--frame-max-side 0`); the server `process_image` normalizes at 448.
+
+`--stack-frames N` raises the visual refresh rate the way official duplex does:
+each 1 s unit also samples the `N-1` sub-frames captured inside it and tiles
+them into a single composite image sent next to that unit's base frame. The
+audio cadence never changes — a unit is always one second — and the wire always
+carries 2 images per unit however large `N` is, because the sub-frames share one
+composite. Official uses 5 for high refresh rate mode:
+
+```bash
+python examples/online_serving/minicpmo/realtime_duplex_demo.py \
+    --url ws://localhost:8099/v1/realtime?duplex=1 \

+
+Detail inside a composite is capped by `scale_resolution=448` at
+`max_slice_nums=1`: official suggests HD slicing (`max_slice_nums=[2, 1]`) for
+stacked frames, which the duplex adapter does not implement yet. Reading small
+text or digits out of a wide scene is limited by that, not by frame timing.

+`ltx2_use_conv_vae: true`. The choice applies to all requests and all four

+# MiniMax H3 disaggregated text encoder
+
+This opt-in topology runs the Qwen3-VL text encoder as a vLLM stage and sends
+its hidden states and token-role metadata to an encoder-free diffusion stage.
+The standard MiniMax H3 recipes remain single-stage and continue to load the
+text encoder inside the diffusion pipeline.
+
+## Start the server
+
+Choose the topology explicitly and load its deployment defaults:
+
+```bash
+vllm-omni serve MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3 \
+  --omni \
+  --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/minimax_h3_disaggregated.yaml
+```
+
+The default deployment assigns stage 0 to GPUs 0-1 with tensor parallel size
+2 and `max_num_seqs: 1`. Stage 1 uses GPUs 2-5 with diffusion tensor parallel
+size 1, Ulysses degree 4, and VAE patch parallel size 4. Adjust the
+`devices`, `tensor_parallel_size`, and stage 1 `parallel_config` values in a
+deployment override for the available hardware. Diffusion quantization,
+layerwise offload, distributed layerwise offload, VAE parallelism, and USP
+settings use the same stage 1 options documented in [MiniMax-H3.md](MiniMax-H3.md).
+
+For example, this five-GPU topology assigns one GPU to the encoder and four
+to the diffusion stage. `--stage-overrides` keeps placement and parallelism
+scoped to the owning stage rather than broadcasting an override to both:
+
+```bash
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3,4 \
+vllm-omni serve MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3 \
+  --omni \
+  --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/minimax_h3_disaggregated.yaml \
+  --stage-overrides '{"0":{"devices":"0","tensor_parallel_size":1},"1":{"devices":"1,2,3,4","tensor_parallel_size":1,"ulysses_degree":4,"vae_patch_parallel_size":4}}'
+```
+
+For memory-constrained deployments, start from the CPU-offload or distributed
+layerwise-offload profiles in [MiniMax-H3.md](MiniMax-H3.md). Apply memory and
+quantization options only to Stage 1 with `--stage-overrides`; retain the
+encoder's BF16 configuration and the video/audio VAEs' FP32 precision. Select
+one offload strategy per deployment:
+
+```bash
+# Stage 1 model-level CPU offload.
+--stage-overrides '{"1":{"enable_cpu_offload":true}}'
+
+# Stage 1 distributed layerwise offload. Tune resident layers for available RAM.
+--stage-overrides '{"1":{"enable_distributed_layerwise_offload":true,"dlo_use_allgather":false,"dlo_resident_layers":20}}'
+
+# Stage 1 online FP8 quantization of the DiT only.
+--stage-overrides '{"1":{"diffusion_quantization_config":"{\"transformer\":{\"method\":\"fp8\"}}"}}'
+```
+
+The Stage 1 VAE patch-parallel options remain independent of offload and
+quantization. See [MiniMax-H3.md](MiniMax-H3.md) for memory requirements and
+hardware-qualified profiles before combining these options.
+
+Stage 1 sets `model_loaded.text_encoder: false`; it must not load or download
+text-encoder weights. This H3 topology explicitly keeps its single-replica
+diffusion stage inline, avoiding serialization of decoded video through a
+subprocess. It expects both stages to run in one deployment; cross-node payload
+transport is outside this configuration.
+
+The `/v1/videos` request schema and `extra_params.task` values (`t2va`,
+`fl2va`, and `ref2va`) are unchanged from the single-stage recipe.
+
+## Turbo LoRA
+
+MiniMax-H3 Turbo uses five sigma points, `flow_shift=6`, and
+`audio_flow_shift=3`. Start Turbo deployments with the dedicated defaults so
+requests that omit sampling controls do not inherit the 50-step base schedule:

+```
+
+Start from a non-offloaded or DLO FL2VA server command and add
+`--task-type fl2va --lora-backend peft --lora-path "${FLASHGEN_LORA}"`.
+Each request must use T2VA and the distilled interval-count contract:
+
+```bash
+-F 'num_inference_steps=4' \
+-F 'extra_params={"task":"t2va","duration":5.2}' \
+-F "lora={\"name\":\"h3-flashgen-v1.0\",\"path\":\"${FLASHGEN_LORA}\",\"scale\":1.0}"
+```
+
+This path rejects Ref2VA and checkpoints that already pin `base_schedule` in
+`model_index.json`. The adapter metadata carries
+`base_schedule=1.0,0.7,0.4,0.15,0.0`, so `num_inference_steps=4` means four
+denoiser evaluations, not five sigma points. Request-mode generation may omit
+the field and take the count from the adapter schedule; `--step-execution`
+requires it explicitly, because the step scheduler reads the total step count
+off the request at admission, before the adapter schedule is known.
+
+DLO is supported in request-mode generation on the same terms as the Turbo
+adapter: the request-switchable LoRA A/B buffers stay resident on the
+accelerator while DLO streams only the base blocks, so budget for that
+additional fixed HBM usage. The native artifact is rank 64 over 259 target
+modules, and its packed `qkv_proj` and `fc1` layers reuse the full-input A
+tensor per slice while B carries slice-local output rows, so the resident
+footprint exceeds the on-disk payload; measure it for your parallel layout
+rather than assuming the checkpoint size. Pure Ulysses replicates the adapter
+on every rank, while DiT tensor parallelism shards the B buffers. Model-level
+and standard layerwise offload remain unsupported, and `--step-execution`
+cannot be combined with `--enable-distributed-layerwise-offload`.
+
+To validate a deployment, post the same fixed-seed T2VA request twice with the
+adapter and twice without it, then compare the four output digests. The adapter
+is bound and deterministic when each pair matches internally and the two pairs
+differ from each other.
+
+### FastH3 adapter
+
+[FastH3](https://haoailab.com/blogs/fasth3-preview/) is FastVideo's four-step
+DMD2 student of H3-Base. It reuses H3's text encoder, VAEs, tokenizers, and
+schedulers unchanged, replacing 49 denoiser evaluations with four. It is fused
+into the checkpoint at load time rather than switched per request, because it
+carries full-rank deltas that no LoRA layer can express.
+
+The bundle publishes four variants, so download one and point `--lora-path` at
+it; the repository root is refused rather than guessed at:
+
+```bash
+export FASTH3_DIR=/path/to/fasth3
+hf download FastVideo/FastVideo-FastH3-4-step-Preview-v1-LoRA \
+  dense-datafree/adapter_model.safetensors --local-dir "${FASTH3_DIR}"
+export FASTH3_LORA="${FASTH3_DIR}/dense-datafree/adapter_model.safetensors"
+```
+
+Add `--task-type fl2va --lora-path "${FASTH3_LORA}"` to a non-offloaded server
+command. T2VA is served by the FL2VA partition, so `--task-type fl2va` is
+correct even though FastH3 preview v1 distills T2VA only. Because the adapter is
+fused, `--lora-backend` does not apply and a request carrying a `lora=` field is
+rejected rather than served without the adapter it asked for.
+
+```bash
+-F 'num_inference_steps=4' \
+-F 'extra_params={"task":"t2va","duration":4.4}'
+```
+
+Requests must ask for `num_inference_steps=4` and `task=t2va`: the release's five
+sigma points bound four denoiser evaluations, and that count is what the step
+scheduler admits a request on. The server denoises on the release's own ladder,
+keeping H3's per-modality shifts at the checkpoint values, so a request that
+overrides `flow_shift` or `audio_flow_shift` is rejected - it would sample the
+student at noise levels it was never distilled at.
+
+Only a release that identifies itself as FastH3 is fused; any other
+`fastvideo-lora-v2` adapter stays on the dynamic LoRA route. A claimed artifact
+is then held to its own metadata: one that misdeclares its tensor counts or
+leaves a transformer block unedited is refused at startup instead of serving
+mostly base H3 weights on a four-step schedule. Offload is refused for the same
+reason - `--enable-cpu-offload`, `--enable-layerwise-offload` and
+`--enable-distributed-layerwise-offload` all bypass the fusion, so they fail fast.

+``EngineCore.has_work()`` reads false while a live request sits in
+``waiting``, so the engine blocks in ``input_queue.get()`` and never calls
+``schedule()`` again. Regression for the Qwen3-Omni duplex symptom where the
+server answered the first conversation after a boot and was silent from the
+second on while still reporting healthy.
