This class provides a typed interface for accessing quantized weights and scales from layer modules.

This class provides the interface for implementing custom quantized linear layer kernels in vLLM. Subclasses should implement specific quantization strategies (e.g., FP8, INT8) and their corresponding compute kernels. Generic Type Parameters: _ConfigT: Configuration type for the kernel (subclass of MMLinearLayerConfig). Contains kernel-specific settings like quantization keys, dtypes, etc. _ParamsT: Parameter type for the kernel (subclass of Params). Defines the quantized weights and scales needed by the kernel. Typical Usage: 1. Define a config dataclass inheriting from MMLinearLayerConfig 2. Define a params dataclass inheriting from Params (or FP8Params/Int8Params) 3. Subclass MMLinearKernel with your config and params types 4. Implement all abstract methods 5.
