The axis will be 0 max(1 - 2, 0) = 0 which is the same as -1 for the bias since it's 1D.

Hi, thank you for review. The broken test case is I am tring add gpt-oss tensor parallelism on mlx-lm.
See ml-explore/mlx-lm#757.
When shard_inplace mlp.experts.gate_proj, the bias shape is 2D due to multi local expert.
Apply this change, I can run mlx-lm pr success.

I don't think this fix is doing anything. But if there is a broken test case you observed then please share and we can revisit it. |
