Context logits exist only for tokens that pass through the forward pass. When block reuse matched a prompt prefix, the engine produced logits for the uncached suffix only, and prompt logprob row t was then paired with prompt token t + 1 from the start of the prompt: the suffix scores landed on the leading prompt tokens and the tail was unscored. Requests that return context logits (including prompt logprobs) now bypass prefix reuse: - KV cache manager V2 caps their reuse claim at zero, including connector prefix reservations and the joint draft pairing. - KV cache manager V1 drops their reuse estimate before micro-batch scheduling and rewinds them to position 0 with the admitted chunk. Their computed blocks are still committed, and requests without context logits keep reusing the cache. Context logits shorter than the prompt now fail the request instead of producing misaligned prompt logprobs. OpenEngine refuses a PromptOutput with missing scores, ends the stream on an error event, and does not request prompt logprobs on the generation_only leg, which never computes prompt logits.

A request refused for incomplete context logits is answered with an ErrorResponse and aborted, but the engine can still emit in-flight steps and a final cancellation. The single-process handler called has_error() on the ErrorResponse, and the postprocess path asserted on the popped result. Track refused client ids and drop their remaining responses. Clear the reuse estimate of context-logits requests inside the micro-batch schedulers, so the multimodal scheduler, which calls them directly, also budgets the full re-prefill. Let the OpenEngine servicer's cleanup abort a refused request only while it is still running. Signed-off-by: tanmayv25 <tanmay2592@gmail.com>

…uests Add a per-request skip_prefix_reuse flag to LlmRequest, set for requests returning context logits. The V1 block manager neither credits nor claims a cached prefix for such a request and does not query the KV connector for one; it allocates the whole prompt and still stores the blocks for reuse. The V2 manager caps its reuse claim on the same flag. This replaces the Python rewind after add_sequence_batch and the scheduler estimate clearing. A skipping request no longer rewrites blocks other requests share, and sliding-window attention, hybrid recurrent state and two-model drafting (whose draft manager reads the same flag) need no special handling.

Preserve prefix-reuse policy in child requests.
When create_child_request() wraps a child with LlmRequest(llm_request=child), this assignment uses the default return_context_logits=False. The later copy of py_* attributes restores py_return_context_logits but does not restore skip_prefix_reuse. A child of a context-logit request can therefore claim cached prompt blocks and return incomplete scores. Preserve the parent's flag when wrapping the child, and add a child-request regression case to tests/unittest/_torch/executor/kv_cache/test_skip_prefix_reuse.py.

Dev Engineer Review
The change adds
skip_prefix_reuseacross C++, Python, bindings, KV cache managers, connectors, and schedulers. Context-logit requests now bypass cached-prefix reuse while retaining computed blocks for later requests.Incomplete context logits now produce terminal errors instead of misaligned prompt logprobs. OpenEngine reports incomplete prompt output as an error and disables prompt logprobs for
generation_onlyrequests.Main regression risks are coordination between V1, V2, connector reservations, speculative recompute, and streaming cleanup. Review finding counts are unavailable.

Problem. With KV cache block reuse on, a request asking for prompt logprobs returns incomplete and misaligned scores whenever part of its prompt is cached. The engine logs
Because of KV cache reuse, not all context logits could be produced for request .... Through OpenEngine gRPC, Dynamo then rejects the response (prompt token is missing its logprob; reproduction in ai-dynamo/dynamo#16816, seen on 1.3.0rc29 with Qwen3-0.6B, aggregated and disaggregated).Root cause.
_compute_pytorch_prompt_logprobspairs logits rowtwith prompt tokent + 1counting from the start of the prompt. The suffix's scores therefore land on the leading prompt tokens, and the rest of the prompt is unscored.[None, *prompt_logprobs]alignment is correct for a complete list and cannot repair a short one.This is the bug behind nvbugs/5577178. Its FIXME and test skips are removed here.
Fix. Requests that return context logits, including those asking for prompt logprobs, skip prefix reuse. A new per-request
LlmRequest.skip_prefix_reuseflag (C++setSkipPrefixReuse) is set for them, and both KV cache managers honour it. Their computed blocks are still committed for later requests, and requests without context logits keep reusing the cache."auto"default), in the C++ block manager:analyzePrefixReusereports no reusable prefix, so the capacity and micro-batch schedulers (C++ and Python, including the multimodal ones) budget the whole prompt.claimMatchingBlocksclaims nothing, and the KV connector is not asked for an external prefix. The request gets fresh blocks from position 0, and they are stored for reuse as usual.PromptOutputwith missing scores becomes an error event instead.generation_onlyleg no longer requests prompt logprobs. It never computes prompt logits, and previously failed on an assertion. Thecontext_onlyleg'sPromptOutputcarries the prompt scores.Cost and behavior changes.
cached_prompt_tokensreports 0 for them. Other requests are unaffected.kv.bypass_prefix_cacheis still rejected by OpenEngine; prompt-logprob requests no longer need it.gather_contexthave the same suffix-only behavior and still only log a warning.Test Coverage
