💡 Result:

The term hf_ptq refers to the Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) example directory within the NVIDIA Model Optimizer repository (formerly often referred to as llm_ptq) [1]. This directory contains tools and scripts for quantizing Hugging Face models for deployment, particularly with TensorRT-LLM [2][3]. The huggingface_example.sh script is a primary entry point in this directory used to automate the quantization and export process [2][3]. It delegates the core quantization logic to the hf_ptq.py script [3]. Regarding the export_fmt parameter: In the context of the NVIDIA Model Optimizer, export_fmt is an argument used in the quantization process to define the output format of the quantized model [4][5]. While the script often handles export paths automatically, users may specify formats to ensure compatibility with downstream deployment engines, such as TensorRT-LLM or specific Hugging Face-compatible structures [4][5]. Key features of these tools include: - Recipe-driven quantization: Users are encouraged to use --recipe to load predefined quantization configurations, which can be more robust than manually specifying individual parameters [2][6]. - Quantization Formats: Supported formats include fp8, int8, int4_awq, and newer formats like nvfp4, which are designed for specific hardware architectures (e.g., Blackwell GPUs) [2][3]. - Workflow: The general workflow involves providing a model path (local or Hugging Face ID), choosing a quantization format or recipe, and specifying an export path [2][3]. If an enc-dec model or specific sparse quantization is detected, the script may advise the user to use specific deployment tools like trtllm-build [3]. For more information, consult the official repository documentation at https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/tree/main/examples/hf_ptq [2].

Update remaining Model Optimizer commands to the current contract.

The current examples/hf_ptq parser accepts --model, --quant, and related options, but not --export_fmt. Update the Exaone, Qwen, disaggregated, and other remaining examples/llm_ptq references to use examples/hf_ptq and remove the obsolete option.

This line is byte-identical to before — the only change is removing the trailing newline. end-of-file-fixer is enabled in .pre-commit-config.yaml with no excludes, so pre-commit will re-add it. Restore the newline here and in docs/source/torch/features/quantization.md so this hunk disappears from the diff.
