Fix inspect crash on sub-byte integer tensors - #1818
Merged
Conversation
Nx.Backend's inspect chunking used tail::binary in the :s/:u branches (the float branch already used tail::bitstring), so IO.inspect on any u2/u4/s2/s4 tensor raised MatchError once the remaining data was not byte-aligned. This is the shared inspect implementation, so the fix also covers Torchx. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Nx.Backend's inspect chunking usedtail::binaryin the:s/:ubranches while the float branch already correctly usedtail::bitstring— soIO.inspecton any u2/u4/s2/s4 tensor raisedMatchErroronce the remaining data was not byte-aligned:Two-character fix per branch. Since
Nx.Backend.inspectis the shared implementation, this also fixes Torchx sub-byte tensors.Regression test: exact inspect renderings for u2 and s2 tensors.
