Changelog

Sourced from jaxlib's changelog.

JAX 0.8.2 (December 18, 2025)

• Deprecations

  • jax.lax.pvary has been deprecated. Please use jax.lax.pcast(..., to='varying') as the replacement.
  • Complex arguments passed to {func}jax.numpy.arange now result in a deprecation warning, because the output is poorly-defined.
  • From {mod}jax.core a number of symbols are newly deprecated including: call_impl, get_aval, mapped_aval, subjaxprs, set_current_trace, take_current_trace, traverse_jaxpr_params, unmapped_aval, AbstractToken, and TraceTag.
  • All symbols in {mod}jax.interpreters.pxla are deprecated. These are primarily JAX internal APIs, and users should not rely on them.

• Changes:

  • jax's Tracer no longer inherits from jax.Array at runtime. However, jax.Array now uses a custom metaclass such isinstance(x, Array) is true if an object x represents a traced Array. Only some Tracers represent Arrays, so it is not correct for Tracer to inherit from Array.

    For the moment, during Python type checking, we continue to declare Tracer as a subclass of Array, however we expect to remove this in a future release.

  • jax.experimental.si_vjp has been deleted. jax.vjp subsumes it's functionality.

JAX 0.8.1 (November 18, 2025)

• New features:

  • {func}jax.jit now supports the decorator factory pattern; i.e instead of writing

    @functools.partial(jax.jit, static_argnames=['n'])
    def f(x, n):
      ...
    

    you may write

    @jax.jit(static_argnames=['n'])
    def f(x, n):
      ...
    

• Changes:

  • {func}jax.lax.linalg.eigh now accepts an implementation argument to select between QR (CPU/GPU), Jacobi (GPU/TPU), and QDWH (TPU) implementations. The EighImplementation enum is publicly exported from {mod}jax.lax.linalg.

... (truncated)
