This PR implements the missing quantize_per_channel and dequantize_per_channel operations in the torchlib quantized_decomposed module.

Changes

Added two new functions to onnxscript/function_libs/torch_lib/ops/quantized_decomposed.py:

quantized_decomposed_quantize_per_channel

  • Implements per-channel quantization using ONNX QuantizeLinear with per-axis support
  • Takes tensor inputs for scales and zero_points (one value per channel)
  • Supports axis parameter to specify the quantization dimension
  • Uses ONNX opset23 for per-axis quantization capabilities

quantized_decomposed_dequantize_per_channel

  • Implements per-channel dequantization using ONNX DequantizeLinear with per-axis support
  • Takes tensor inputs for scales and optional zero_points
  • zero_points parameter is Optional[TensorType] matching PyTorch reference
  • Supports both default output type and explicit output_dtype parameter

Implementation Details

Both functions:

  • Follow the existing code patterns using @torch_op decorator with trace_only=True
  • Have function signatures that match the PyTorch reference implementations from torch.ao.quantization.fx._decomposed
  • Use ONNX opset23 to leverage the axis and output_dtype parameters for per-axis quantization
  • Are properly registered and accessible as TracedOnnxFunctions

The implementation leverages ONNX's native per-axis quantization support rather than implementing the tensor manipulation logic from the PyTorch reference, making it more efficient and aligned with ONNX best practices.

Testing

Validated that:

  • Functions import correctly and have proper signatures
  • Function schemas are correctly generated with appropriate parameter types
  • No existing functionality is broken (per-tensor functions still work)
  • Functions can be used to build ONNX models

Fixes #2389.

How do we know this is correct?

Adds e2e numerical-parity tests (eager torch vs ORT) for
quantize_per_channel and dequantize_per_channel covering int8 and
uint8, axis 0 and non-zero axes, distinct per-channel scales/zero_points,
narrow quant_min/quant_max clamping, and a quantize->dequantize round trip.

Fixes the lowering to make parity hold:
- Per-axis QuantizeLinear/DequantizeLinear (opset 13+ axis attribute) is
  used instead of opset23-only attributes (output_dtype/precision/
  block_size), which were emitted into an opset-18 graph and rejected by
  ONNX Runtime.
- zero_points (int64 from torch) is now cast to the quantized dtype so it
  matches the int8/uint8 tensor, and scales (float64 from torch) is cast
  to the input/float32 type as required by Q/DQ.
- quantize_per_channel now clamps to quant_min/quant_max (via Clip) to
  match torch's reference semantics; dequantize defaults to float32.

# Conflicts:
#	tests/function_libs/torch_lib/e2e_ops_tests.py
Resolve merge conflict in e2e_ops_tests.py by keeping both main's
torchvision import (for deform_conv2d tests) and the quantized_decomposed
registration import for the new per_channel parity tests.
