Dev Engineer Review

  • Coordinates target and draft KV-cache reuse for supported one-model speculative decoding modes.
  • Adds shifted reuse keys, shared-frontier clipping, prompt lookahead handling, atomic allocation, rollback, suspension, and symmetric reservation cleanup.
  • Disables joint reuse for unsupported modes and Mamba hybrid cache managers.
  • Review focus: cross-pool state consistency, rollback correctness, matching block sizes, API consistency, and unsupported-mode gating.
  • No configuration or test-list changes were identified.

QA Engineer Review

  • Test changes cover joint reuse, capacity accounting, scheduler rollback, suspension, context reuse, PyExecutor cleanup, Attention-DP behavior, MTP lookahead handling, and EAGLE3 reuse.
  • Updated test coverage includes:
    • test_kv_cache_budget_split.py
    • test_kv_cache_manager_v2.py
    • test_kv_cache_v2_scheduler.py
    • test_py_executor.py
    • test_kv_cache_reuse.py
    • test_mtp.py
    • test_eagle3.py
    • test_pytorch_model_engine.py
    • test_kv_cache_v2_capacity_only.py
    • test_kv_cache_v2_helix_superblock.py
    • Related fixture updates in benchmark disaggregation, dual-pool cache, rebalance, and cache statistics tests.
  • No tests/integration/test_lists/, test-db/, qa/, or waives.txt changes were identified.
  • Reported validation includes the NVBug regression case, 1,843 executor and KV-cache tests, one-model EAGLE3 reuse, lookahead eligibility tests, pre-commit, and commit hooks.
  • Verdict: needs follow-up because the L0_MergeRequest_PR pipeline failed and a corrected CI run is pending.

Description

Fix NVBug 6621358 by making block reuse correct for one-model speculative decoding under KV cache manager V2.

One-model speculative decoding gives a request two KV pools that share a single context cursor. V2 ran reuse and scheduling admission against the target pool alone, so the cursor could advance past a prefix the draft pool had never cached, and the draft pool's context or generation pages could then fail to allocate after the request was already admitted.

The two pools now agree on one reuse frontier:

  • Shifted cache keys. Draft layers do not consume the prompt in place: an Eagle one-model draft reads the shift-by-1 context input ids, so its KV at position i encodes token i + 1; vanilla MTP chains D layers, each consuming one token further. Both managers key on a lookahead-seeded stream so the key at position i covers every prompt token the draft KV at i depends on. The leading lookahead window collapses into a digest, keeping one key per position so partial-block reuse still works.
  • Clip to the shorter claim. The scheduler claims the draft prefix first and caps the target claim to it, then re-claims the draft at the target's depth. If the two cannot be reconciled (pages unpinned by a concurrent eviction), both fall back to no reuse.
  • Conservative commit. The trailing lookahead positions stay unpublished — they depend on tokens past the end of the prompt.
  • Chunked prefill. Context chunks feed the draft the real next-chunk prompt token instead of the sampled token, so a chunked context produces the same draft KV as an unchunked one.
  • Atomic admission. Context and generation capacity is allocated, rolled back, suspended, and recomputed across both pools together, and speculative generation reservations are reclaimed symmetrically once the accepted draft length is known.

draft_kv_lookahead() (_torch/speculative/interface.py) is the single source of truth for both the key stream and protocol eligibility: a mode with an unestablished span returns None and is kept off the protocol rather than reusing against keys that may not describe its KV.

Supported scope

Paired reuse turns on only for a run that actually has two V2 pools with a known
draft-KV span:

mode draft context input span paired reuse
vanilla MTP shift-by-1, D chained layers D yes
MTP-Eagle one-model shift-by-1, single layer 1 yes
EAGLE3 one-model shift-by-1, single layer 1 yes
PARD prompt verbatim (input_ids[:num_ctx_tokens]) 0 yes
DRAFT_TARGET_ONE_MODEL shift-by-1 (span unvalidated) no
DFlash / DSpark target hidden states, accumulated outside the paged pool no
SA no draft model no
two-model drafting own manager, own request stream no

Plus: KV cache manager V2 with block reuse, TP-only (pp_size == 1), aggregated
serving, context/chunked-prefill and paired generation.

Not covered — and deliberately left untouched

Everything outside the table above keeps exactly its main behaviour: raw-prompt
cache keys and the existing unpaired draft allocation path. This PR does not disable
block reuse, change keys, or otherwise degrade any configuration it does not fix.

  • Attention DP folds the draft layers into the unified manager (unchanged from
    main), so an ADP run stays single-pool and never enters the protocol. ADP
    allocates padding dummies outside the V2 scheduler, which is where target/draft
    admission is paired, so keeping it single-pool avoids a second pairing path.
  • DRAFT_TARGET_ONE_MODEL calls the same shift-by-1 _prepare_context_input_ids
    as Eagle, so its span is very likely 1. Adding it is wiring plus the
    chunked-prefill lookahead token, and wants an end-to-end run first — out of scope
    here.
  • DFlash / DSpark are a mechanism boundary rather than a missing table entry: they
    build draft context by projecting the target's captured hidden states into a
    per-request buffer owned by the worker, outside the paged pool. Block reuse restores
    paged blocks, not that buffer, and once the target reuses [0, L) the target never
    produces hidden states for that span to accumulate. Supporting them needs state
    snapshots along the lines of the Mamba SSM snapshot path.
  • SA has no draft model and reports zero draft layers.
  • Mamba hybrid cache managers opt out via _supports_joint_kv_cache_reuse = False.
  • Pipeline parallelism and disaggregated serving.

One behaviour change reviewers should know about

Enabling a draft changes the target's reuse keys. For the modes that do join the
protocol with a non-zero span (MTP, MTP-Eagle, EAGLE3 one-model), the target manager
keys on the shifted stream too, so its radix trie is not key-compatible with a
non-speculative run of the same model, and the final D positions of every prompt stay
unpublished. Mixed traffic, or toggling speculative decoding at runtime, will see a
lower hit rate. This is the cost of making clip-to-min meaningful — both trees have to
describe the same logical prefix. PARD is unaffected: its span is 0, so it keeps
raw-prompt keys.

Test Coverage

  • Exact NVBug chunked-prefill case: TestDeepSeekR1LongBenchV2::test_nvfp4_4gpus — 1 passed; all 215 responses completed and LongBench accuracy was 51.16%.
  • tests/unittest/_torch/executor/ plus hw_agnostic/test_kv_cache_reuse.py — 1843 passed, 0 failed on B200, matching main's baseline for the same set. This run also fixed four failures that earlier revisions of this branch introduced in test_kv_cache_manager_v2_helix_superblock.py and test_mamba_cache_manager.py (production code began reading attributes the hand-built stubs did not provide).
  • test_kv_cache_budget_split.py::TestDraftKvLookahead pins the lookahead table per mode and asserts that protocol eligibility is derived from it, so the two cannot drift apart.
  • End-to-end one-model reuse: hw_agnostic/test_kv_cache_reuse.py::test_eagle3_one_model_kv_cache_reuse — 1 passed.
  • pre-commit and commit hooks — passed.

Superseded: an earlier revision of this branch relaxed the Attention-DP restriction and was validated with TestDeepSeekR1::test_nvfp4_multi_gpus[latency_adp_lmtp_tp4]. That relaxation has been reverted, so the result no longer describes this PR's behaviour — ADP now takes the same single-pool path as main.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2b058

The PR changes paired KV-cache reuse and admission for speculative decoding, but the current implementation can crash when cache capacity is exhausted and can leave request progress inconsistent after a no-reuse fallback. Merge should wait for these correctness issues and the associated rollback coverage to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

711-786: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The decision "use the draft KV cache manager only when joint reuse applies" is duplicated across both files instead of living in one place. scheduler_v2.py#L1135-L1156 already shows the risk: it uses a different gate (draft_kv_cache_manager is not None) than every allocation path, which uses enable_joint_kv_cache_reuse. Add one cached accessor (for example a _joint_reuse_draft_kv_cache_manager property on each class, set once from the constructor) and route every site through it.

  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/scheduler/scheduler_v2.py#L711-L786: replace the two local draft_manager = self.draft_kv_cache_manager if self.enable_joint_kv_cache_reuse else None lines in _prepare_context_pair and _try_allocate_context with the shared accessor.
  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/scheduler/scheduler_v2.py#L1104-L1123: replace the same local assignment in _try_allocate_generation with the shared accessor.
  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/scheduler/scheduler_v2.py#L1135-L1156: route _suspend_request and _free_kv_caches through the same accessor so their draft-manager gate matches the allocation paths exactly.
  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/py_executor.py#L3450-L3467: replace the ternary in _free_adp_dummy_kv_resources with the shared accessor.
  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/py_executor.py#L6930-L6952: replace the ternary that builds cache_managers in _has_adp_dummy_kv_capacity with the shared accessor.
  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/py_executor.py#L7092-L7117: replace the draft_kv_cache_manager=(... if self.enable_joint_kv_cache_reuse else None) argument with the shared accessor.
  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/py_executor.py#L7134-L7136: replace the same argument pattern in the second add_dummy_requests call with the shared accessor.
  • tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/py_executor.py#L7220-L7222: replace the same argument pattern in _pad_empty_attention_dp_batch with the shared accessor.

Add annotations to the changed Python functions.

The coding rules require annotations on every function. Add bool annotations to the parameterized test inputs, a precise optional type for draft_kv_cache_manager, and -> None to the new test functions.

One concern about the _draft_reuse_lookahead with chunked profile at boundary positions:

Let's say:
Prompt: [10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17]
chunk_size = 4
Chunked MTP1 first block: [11, 12, 13, 99]
Unchunked MTP1 first block: [11, 12, 13, 14]

Chunked MTP2 first block: [12, 13, 99, 98]
Unchunked MTP2 first block: [12, 13, 14, 15]

Reuse key for both: [H(10,11,12), 13, 14, 15]

This pr could publish those positions under keys derived from the real prompt lookahead, allowing later chunks or requests to attach incorrect draft KV and reducing acceptance.

82-144: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial

Test coverage summary.

Added test functions:

  • TestSplitGpuBudgetForDraft.test_attention_dp_folds_draft_into_unified_manager — attention-DP gating of the separate draft pool.
  • TestSplitGpuBudgetForDraft.test_joint_reuse_capability_is_resolved_at_manager_creation — success path plus the tokens_per_block and joint-capability rejections in _configure_joint_kv_cache_reuse.
  • TestDraftKvLookahead.test_lookahead_span_per_mode, test_shared_kv_and_missing_config_have_no_span, test_creator_joint_reuse_follows_the_same_table, test_manager_class_opt_out_wins_over_the_table — the draft_kv_lookahead table and its reuse of that table in KvCacheCreator._joint_reuse_supported.

No test functions were removed or modified.

Test-list membership: these are tests/unittest/** files, so they are not listed individually under tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/ or tests/integration/test_lists/qa/. No list change is required for them.

Coverage verdict: needs follow-up. The unit tests pin the configuration table and the paired-manager validation. They do not cover the runtime key stream added in KVCacheManagerV2._block_reuse_tokens (digest seeding, partial-block reuse, and the unpublished trailing lookahead positions), nor the chunked-prefill boundary case. Add a tests/unittest/_torch/executor/test_kv_cache_manager_v2.py case that asserts the key count and the digest-seeded first key for start == 0 and for a continuation start > 0, plus one case with a chunk boundary.

As per path instructions: "Always produce a test coverage summary, even if no issues are found" and the summary must state which test functions changed, their test-list membership, and a coverage verdict.

Also applies to: 728-801

Use max_draft_len instead of the deprecated alias.

MTPDecodingConfig treats num_nextn_predict_layers as a deprecated constructor alias. Its before validator logs a deprecation warning and rewrites the value into max_draft_len. The assertions still hold, but the test emits a warning and depends on a remap that is scheduled for removal.

…ft pools

One-model speculative decoding gives a request two KV pools that share a
single context cursor. Block reuse advanced that cursor from the target pool
alone, so the draft pool could be asked for a prefix it never cached.

Make both pools agree on one reuse frontier:

- Probe both radix trees before claiming, and claim min(draft, target) minus
  the draft's prompt lookahead D. Cache keys stay the raw prompt, so a match
  of length m only proves tokens [0, m) agree; a one-model draft pool's KV at
  position i also reads token i + D (one for Eagle one-model, one per layer
  for vanilla MTP), leaving the last D matched positions built from tokens the
  new request never matched. Probing rather than claiming-then-trimming is
  forced: neither history_length nor num_committed_tokens may decrease.
- Claim the draft prefix first and cap the target to it, so the two pools
  agree without a re-claim in the common case. Fall back to no reuse if they
  cannot be reconciled.
- Feed chunked prefill the real next-chunk prompt token instead of the sampled
  token, so a chunked context produces the same draft KV as an unchunked one.

Keeping raw-prompt keys is deliberate. Block hashes leave the process through
KV cache events, the cache-aware router and disagg peers, and every one of
those consumers rederives them from the prompt; a key stream that encoded the
draft lookahead would make a spec-decoding worker's hashes unreproducible and
silently disable cache-aware routing. This also keeps the scheme one delta
away from V1, which already stores and matches draft blocks on the unshifted
prompt -- it just does so with no backoff at all.

KvCacheCreator resolves the pairing once, before either manager exists, and
hands the answer to both constructors; the managers never re-derive it. Modes
it cannot pair -- draft-target one-model, external drafters, SA, and anything
whose draft KV lives outside the paged pool -- keep exactly the behaviour they
had before: a draft pool that never publishes. PARD joins the protocol with a
zero backoff, because its drafter reads the prompt verbatim.

Attention DP keeps main's behaviour too: its draft layers fold into the
unified manager, so it stays single-pool and never enters the paired protocol.

Known limitation: the draft pool publishes its trailing D positions, whose KV
was drafted from the target's sampled token. The claim-time backoff keeps them
out of any reused prefix at a path's tip, but once a longer request extends
past that tip they sit in the interior unprotected. The effect is bounded to
draft quality -- the target verifies every draft token -- so it costs
acceptance rate, never correctness.

@yizhang-nv
yizhang-nv requested a review from a team as a code owner August 31, 2026 06:58
…sion rationale

draft_prompt_lookahead returns None for DFlash/DSpark, and the comment
justified that with "keep draft context outside the paged pool". That reads
as if they never touch the manager's draft pool, which is wrong: DFlashWorker
does enter draft_kv_cache_context, but only on the generation path, to hold
the mask-token block's own self-attention K/V for one step.

What actually rules them out is where the prompt-derived state lives:
_store_prefill_context writes projected target hidden states into the
worker-owned _ctx_kv_buf, indexed by slot, which block reuse cannot restore.
No lookahead span would make their keys correct, so the exclusion stands --
only the stated reason changes.
