Description

Two small gaps where the image routes lag behind the video routes. Both are on the response side of /v1/images/* and both matter to the same caller — a benchmark client that wants server-side timings without paying to transfer the pixels.

1. response_format='path' on /v1/images/edits

The edit route already writes each output image to media storage before returning a fetchable URL, but it could not return that path: ImageEditRequest.response_format only accepted url / b64_json, while /v1/images/generations and both video routes have supported path since #17490. The route now reuses the existing _image_object helper, so the two image routes share one transport dispatch and cannot drift when a transport changes, and path is gated behind the same TRTLLM_DISALLOW_LOCAL_MEDIA_PATH check the other routes use.

2. total in the image Server-Timing header

/v1/images/generations and /v1/images/edits emitted only the engine's generation and denoise, so a client could not tell how much server time was spent outside the engine — request parsing, image encoding, response serialization. Both video routes have reported total since #17490. The clock now starts at the top of each handler, before request parsing, so the metric spans the same window the video routes measure. The existing latency variable is deliberately not reused: it starts after parsing and would under-report.

Test Coverage

tests/unittest/_torch/visual_gen/test_trtllm_serve_endpoints.py, 4 new cases:

Test Covers
test_image_edit_response_format_path_returns_on_disk_path edit route returns the on-disk path, no url / b64_json
test_image_edit_response_format_path_rejected_when_disabled TRTLLM_DISALLOW_LOCAL_MEDIA_PATH rejects it on the edit route too
test_image_generation_server_timing_has_total generation route emits generation + denoise + total
test_image_edit_server_timing_has_total edit route emits the same three

Full file: 142 passed.

Both changes were mutation-verified — reverting the source change makes exactly the corresponding new tests fail, and the video-route timing tests keep passing (confirming total was already correct there and the new assertions are not tautological).

Dev Engineer Review

  • ImageEditRequest.response_format now accepts "path".
  • /v1/images/edits supports path responses through _image_object.
  • TRTLLM_DISALLOW_LOCAL_MEDIA_PATH applies to image edits.
  • Image generation and edit responses include total request latency in Server-Timing.
  • Timing starts at the server-arrival timestamp and includes request parsing.
  • Video timing uses the steady clock for total and background-job durations.
  • No configuration or test-list files changed.

QA Engineer Review

  • Added tests for total timing on image generation.
  • Added tests for total timing on image edits.
  • Added tests for asynchronous video total timing.
  • Added tests for image-edit path responses.
  • Added tests for HTTP 400 when local media paths are disabled.
  • The modified test file is not listed in tests/integration/test_lists/.
  • Verdict: needs follow-up to confirm CI coverage registration.

Walkthrough

Image editing now accepts response_format="path". Image and video endpoints measure total latency from the middleware-recorded server arrival time with the steady clock. Tests cover image timing, path responses, disabled local paths, and asynchronous video timing.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7753e

The PR adds local-path responses for image edits and allows them by default unless the deployment explicitly disables them, which may expose server filesystem details to untrusted callers. It is mergeable with explicit owner awareness that deployments requiring path confidentiality must enforce the disabling configuration.

The image edit route already writes each output image to media storage
before returning a fetchable URL, but it could not return that path:
`ImageEditRequest.response_format` only accepted `url` / `b64_json`,
while `/v1/images/generations` and both video routes have supported
`path` since NVIDIA#17490.

Reuse the existing `_image_object` helper so the edit route shares one
transport dispatch with the generation route, and gate `path` behind the
same `TRTLLM_DISALLOW_LOCAL_MEDIA_PATH` check the other routes use.

`/v1/images/generations` and `/v1/images/edits` emitted only the engine's `generation` and `denoise` metrics, so a client could not tell how much server time was spent outside the engine — request parsing, image encoding, response serialization. Both video routes have reported `total` since NVIDIA#17490.

Start the clock at the top of each handler, before request parsing, so the metric spans the same window the video routes measure. The existing `latency` variable is not reused because it starts after parsing and would under-report.

Signed-off-by: Yiyun Lu <55233584+luyiyun1021@users.noreply.github.com>
`openai_image_generation` is handed an already-parsed `ImageGenerationRequest`, so the `time.perf_counter()` stamp at the top of its body ran *after* FastAPI had read and validated the body. Its `total` therefore excluded request parsing, unlike the three routes that take `raw_request` and parse inside. The claim in the previous commit that all image routes span the window the video routes measure held only for `/v1/images/edits`.

All four VisualGen media routes now read `raw_request.state.server_arrival_time`, stamped by `ServerArrivalTimeMiddleware` at ASGI entry, and close `total` out with `get_steady_clock_now_in_seconds()` so both ends sit on one clock. This is the same source the disagg server already uses for its `queue` / `ttft` ranges. Handler signatures are untouched, so the generation route keeps the pydantic parameter the LLM routes all use, and its OpenAPI schema with it.

Behavior change worth calling out: the video routes' `total` now starts at ASGI entry rather than at handler entry, so it additionally covers routing and middleware dispatch. `Server-Timing` is a user-visible response header. No in-tree consumer reads `total` — the benchmark client parses only `generation` and `denoise`, and perf-sanity reads neither — so no CI baseline moves.

`total` still ends where the header is built, before `model_dump()` and JSON rendering; that tail is negligible for `response_format=path` but not for `b64_json`. Closing it needs the header injected from an outbound middleware, the way `PerfMetricsMiddleware` does it, and is left to a follow-up.

The new tests backdate only the middleware's clock, leaving the handler's end reading on the real one, so `total` must absorb the full offset — a handler-local stamp collapses it back to ~0 and fails.
