Summary

  • Execution (ROCM-27774): the post-run log scanner greps the entire run
    log for error substrings, including a model's own generated stdout. A
    generative benchmark (e.g. an LLM writing ValueError: inside a code
    sample it generated) could flip an otherwise fully-passing run to
    FAILURE even though valid performance metrics were already recorded.
    Since the scan can't distinguish framework/harness diagnostics from model
    output, valid extracted performance metrics now take priority over a
    pattern match. The match is still printed (in yellow) for triage
    visibility instead of being silently dropped.

Test plan

  • tests/unit/test_container_runner_helpers.py — new TestResolveRunStatus
    cases covering the performance-vs-error-pattern priority (ROCM-27774)
  • Full unit suite passes (pytest tests/unit -q)

…rmance metrics are valid

The post-run log scanner greps the entire run log, including a model's own
generated stdout, so a generative benchmark (e.g. an LLM writing "ValueError:"
in a code sample) could flip an otherwise-successful run to FAILURE. Since the
scan can't distinguish framework diagnostics from model output, valid
extracted performance metrics now take priority over a pattern match; the
match is still surfaced (in yellow) for triage instead of silently dropped.

Fixes ROCM-27774.

Pull request overview

This PR adjusts post-run status determination so that when valid performance metrics are extracted, a log error-pattern match no longer flips the run to FAILURE (the match is still surfaced for triage). This mitigates false failures when generative model output includes error-like substrings.

Changes:

  • Introduces resolve_run_status() to centralize status/reason selection with the new “performance wins” priority.
  • Updates ContainerRunner status logic to use resolve_run_status() and print SUCCESS-with-error-match in yellow.
  • Adds unit tests and updates documentation to reflect the revised log-scan behavior.

  • has_performance calls performance_value.strip() twice and will raise if performance_value is not a string. Computing the stripped value once (and guarding type) avoids duplicate work and makes status determination more robust.
                                has_performance = bool(
                                    performance_value
                                    and performance_value.strip()
                                    and performance_value.strip() != "N/A"
                                )
