Summary:
The padding value used in max_pool2d operations differs between PyTorch and QNN implementations.
PyTorch uses negative infinity, while QNN uses zero. To ensure consistent max_pool2d output across both frameworks,
we handle this by padding tensor with constant in advance then doing max_pool2d without constant padding.
Test plans:
python backends/qualcomm/tests/test_qnn_delegate.py TestQNNQuantizedOperator.test_qnn_backend_max_pool2d -b build-android -H ${HOST} -s ${SN} -m ${CHIPID}
python backends/qualcomm/tests/test_qnn_delegate.py TestQNNFloatingPointOperator.test_qnn_backend_max_pool2d -b build-android -H ${HOST} -s ${SN} -m ${CHIPID}

Due to the padding value used in max_pool2d operations differs between PyTorch and QNN implementations. This pass will improve this situation. Please take a look. Thanks. |

Qualcomm AI Engine Direct - add pass for extra padding then maxpool2d
Summary:
The padding value used in max_pool2d operations differs between PyTorch and QNN implementations. PyTorch uses negative infinity, while QNN uses zero. To ensure consistent max_pool2d output across both frameworks, we handle this by padding tensor with constant in advance then doing max_pool2d without constant padding. Note that for the quantization flow, we set quant_min as the padding value. If, at runtime, there is a value smaller than quant_min, it could result in an accuracy drop.
