📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds no-pip build controls, requirement-aware environment setup, shared pip caching, and a reusable non-isolated editable-install helper. CI test scripts and JIT-cache builds use the updated installation paths.

Changes

CI installation flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
No-install build backend controls
build_backend.py
The backend detects FLASHINFER_BUILD_NO_PIP=1, skips selected dependency installation, and avoids cuda-tile installation when dependencies are satisfied or installation is disabled.
Requirement-aware CI setup
scripts/check_requirements.py, scripts/setup_test_env.sh, ci/bash.sh, docker/install/install_python_packages.sh
CI checks installed requirements, installs only unsatisfied requirements when possible, configures pip retries and caching, and installs wheel for non-isolated builds.
Shared editable test installation
scripts/setup_test_env.sh, scripts/task_jit_run_tests_part*.sh, scripts/task_test_single_node_comm_kernels.sh, scripts/test_utils.sh, scripts/task_test_jit_cache_package_build_import.sh
Test scripts use the shared editable-install helper. JIT-cache wheel builds use wheel when needed and disable build isolation.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to e6438

Some CI build paths may still download backend dependencies instead of consistently using the image-provided packages and shared cache. The change is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up on that path.

753-771: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Limit the broad exception handler.

except Exception hides unexpected parser and package-metadata defects and converts them into a false “not installed” result. In no-pip mode, this can skip installation without explaining the defect. Catch the expected PackageNotFoundError and packaging parsing/version exceptions while surfacing unexpected failures.

In `@build_backend.py`:
- Around line 579-584: Update _install_nvep_runtime_wheels() to honor
_no_pip_installs(): verify that the required preinstalled NIXL runtime
wheel/libraries are available, return without invoking uv pip or python -m pip
when present, and fail with a clear error when unavailable. Preserve the
existing installation path when no-pip mode is disabled, and ensure
_build_nvep_if_enabled() continues to receive the failure appropriately.

In `@scripts/check_requirements.py`:
- Around line 25-27: Update parse_requirements and main so an OSError while
reading the requirements file propagates a failure status of 2 instead of
returning an empty list that leads to success; preserve normal parsing behavior
for readable files and ensure setup_test_env.sh can trigger its full-sync
fallback.

In `@scripts/task_test_jit_cache_package_build_import.sh`:
- Line 196: Update both non-isolated build commands in the script, including the
editable install around FLASHINFER_EDITABLE_SPEC and the command around the
additionally referenced lines, to set FLASHINFER_BUILD_NO_PIP=1 in their
environment. Preserve the existing command arguments and error handling while
ensuring the backend cannot perform pip dependency installation.
