Behavior

  • Serves the official moonshotai/Kimi-K3 MXFP4 checkpoint and the tensor-parallel-independent lukealonso/Kimi-K3-QSRT-K2 checkpoint on 16 GPUs through B12X dense MLA, routed MoE, linear kernels, and PCIe collectives.
  • Supports DCP4, DCP8, and DCP16 cache layouts without padding Kimi-K3's 896 routed experts.
  • Supports target-only decode, Inferact DSpark, and DFlash with graph-owned B12X projection pools and caller-owned dense-MLA scratch.
  • Preserves causal and non-causal speculative metadata, DCP-local cache planning, InstantTensor borrowed-buffer ownership, exact routed-expert selection, and bounded adaptive DSpark depth.
  • Adds VLLM_MLA_CHUNKED_PREFILL_WORKSPACE_SIZE so transient dense MLA K/V projections can be bounded independently of maximum context length. Zero retains the 64K-token automatic bound; negative values fail configuration.

Technical reason

Kimi-K3's routed-expert count and MLA projection shapes do not divide uniformly across TP16. The implementation shards compatible projections, gathers only required projection rows, preserves canonical expert identities, and uses DCP-aware attention metadata. A separately bounded prefill workspace prevents a 1,048,576-token model limit from reserving multi-gigabyte transient dense K/V projections on every GPU.

Compatibility

Kimi-K3 behavior is selected by model type and explicit environment variables. TP12/DCP1 QSRT serving remains supported. Process groups without B12X projection pools retain no-op graph-capture behavior. The MLA workspace retains automatic sizing unless VLLM_MLA_CHUNKED_PREFILL_WORKSPACE_SIZE is nonzero.

The B12X narrow-output, paired top-k, and vocabulary-argmax dependency is local-inference-lab/b12x#198. Merge B12X #198 before using the optimized vLLM paths.

The official-MXFP4 integration proposed by #284 is included in this pull request against dev/infernal-invocation; #284 is superseded. PRs #243, #269, and #310 target different checkpoint families, model branches, or draft-model semantics and are not duplicates.

Validation

Validation used 16 NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Workstation Edition GPUs, CUDA 13.3, PyTorch 2.13.0, FP8 target KV cache, and InstantTensor loading.

  • Ruff and Python compilation pass for every changed Python file.
  • Focused CPU and GPU-visible suites pass 54 tests with 11 hardware-inapplicable skips. Their GPU coverage includes 12 MLA context tests plus DCP chunking, B12X graph-pool ownership and rollback, InstantTensor lifecycle, reload behavior, speculative attention metadata, sharded Markov execution, fused top-k, and Kimi-K3 kernel warmup.
  • An additional integration-invariant suite passes 12 CPU tests with 9 CUDA-only skips; it covers independent draft quantization, complete K-step sharded Markov all-reduce sizing, hierarchical B12X runtime discovery, and fused-router warmup without a KDA layer.
  • The FA4 backport applies idempotently across repeated CMake patch steps at vllm-project/flash-attention@f3e1a4f74c99145c0717709860bf765de1703779 and produces wrapper SHA-256 80058d9ea24fb51eaf1edecf4413d9c2008b0a5538127263a2e2500e8f838479.
  • Official MXFP4 TP16/DCP16 target-only, DSpark K7, and DFlash K7 expose at least 1,048,576 physical target-cache tokens. Their one-request median decode rates are 56.05, 118.92, and 89.35 tok/s, respectively.
  • QSRT K2 TP16/DCP4 and TP16/DCP8 pass a 16-context finite-logit suite and coherent coding generation.
  • QSRT K2 TP16/DCP8 target-only decode reaches a 47.27 tok/s median with a 256-token prompt and 384 generated tokens.
  • QSRT K2 TP16/DCP8 with static seven-token DSpark exposes at least 1,048,576 physical target-cache tokens and reaches a 91.23 tok/s median across five identical 1,024-token outputs.
  • A TP16/DCP8 QSRT K2 server with a 4,096-token scheduler budget exposes 1,102,812 physical target-cache tokens while serving 71,136-114,776-token AA-LCR prompts with eight active sequences.

The new projection-gather warmup only runs after those checks pass, although it depends on VLLM_KIMI_USE_B12X_PROJECTION_GATHER and VLLM_KIMI_USE_B12X_PAIRED_PROJECTION_GATHER. A TP-only or non-a2a deployment with the projection flags enabled therefore pays JIT cost on the first request.

Remove the unreachable identity-based deduplication.

TP and DCP can cover the same ranks, but their new_group and split_group calls always create distinct ProcessGroup objects. Do not replace this check with rank membership because their B12X pools are distinct and keyed by id(device_group).

- Around line 30-39: Set VLLM_DCP_A2A_MAX_TOKENS to default to 8 in the
launcher’s environment-variable exports, matching the 8-token DFlash capture
block and the corresponding DSpark launcher. Keep user-provided values
overridable through the existing parameter-expansion pattern.

In `@tests/model_executor/model_loader/instanttensor_loader/test_weight_utils.py`:
- Around line 180-181: Update the shard-opening logic in the test and
_restrict_instanttensor_to_selected_ranges to use the InstantTensor opener that
provides offset_keys(), rather than weight_utils.safe_open’s upstream
safetensors handle. Preserve the existing framework="pt" behavior and ensure
both normal and restricted loading paths receive a handle supporting
offset_keys().

In `@tools/kimi_k3/benchmark_nospec_decode.py`:
- Around line 16-18: Restrict URLs passed to urllib.request.urlopen in _get and
the related call sites to approved network schemes such as http and https,
validating the parsed --url value before any requests are made; alternatively,
use a narrowly scoped S310 suppression only with a justification if validation
cannot be centralized. Reject file and custom schemes consistently across all
affected request paths.
- Around line 76-92: In the stream validation around completion_tokens and
token_times, require the streamed event count to match the reported completion
token count before calculating throughput; raise the existing RuntimeError with
the usage and event details when they differ. Keep decode_seconds and
decode_tokens_per_second based on the validated matching counts.

In `@vllm/envs.py`:
- Line 2398: Wrap the Kimi environment loader expressions in the environment
configuration mapping, including the entries for VLLM_KIMI_SHARD_QKV_A and the
related expressions through VLLM_KIMI_SHARD_QKV_B, so each line conforms to the
88-character limit without changing behavior.

In `@vllm/model_executor/models/qwen3_dspark.py`:
- Around line 69-85: Update the sharded branch of the model initialization to
pass the existing quant_config into the ParallelLMHead construction for
markov_w2, matching the replicated path and preserving expected quantized
parameter loading.

In `@vllm/models/kimi_k3/nvidia/model.py`:
- Around line 671-690: Update both compact precomputed-payload branches in the
top-k routing method to require indices_type to be None or torch.int32, matching
the fused top-k branch. For unsupported requested index dtypes, bypass these
branches so the normal dtype-aware routing path handles them.
- Around line 1007-1037: Update the paired-projection fast-path condition in the
relevant forward method to also require not self.use_mega_moe, ensuring MegaMoE
uses its existing routing path and never receives a None topk_ids result.

In `@vllm/models/kimi_k3/nvidia/tp_projection.py`:
- Around line 25-42: Update _get_kimi_projection_group to obtain the TP group
and compare list(dcp_group.ranks) with list(tp_group.ranks) before selecting the
DCP group; return dcp_group only when both world size and rank order match,
otherwise retain the TP-group validation and return tp_group.

In `@vllm/v1/attention/ops/dcp_alltoall.py`:
- Around line 236-243: Update the channel_id is None branch in the DCP capture
context manager to record the active capture before yielding when B12X DCP is
enabled, even if matching_pools is empty; otherwise make it fail consistently
with the existing rejected first-launch behavior. Preserve the explicit
semantic-channel error for registered pools and ensure pools created during the
capture observe _B12X_DCP_ACTIVE_CAPTURE.
- Around line 1144-1147: Update _dcp_a2a_pack_send and dcp_a2a_lse_reduce to
accept and propagate the seq_lens and query_start_loc metadata supplied by their
callers. Before packing, identify empty rows from this metadata and write them
as (0, -inf), ensuring the unpack accumulation in the affected path cannot
produce NaN from zero multiplied by invalid values.

In `@vllm/v1/core/kv_cache_utils.py`:
- Line 1184: Update the affected function’s Google-style docstring to document
the group_size_override argument in Args and describe the ValueError condition

instance without changing behavior.

Apply the same fix in `@vllm/model_executor/model_loader/reload/layerwise.py`
around lines 58 - 84: Add the missing Args and Returns sections.

In `@vllm/v1/worker/gpu/spec_decode/dflash/speculator.py`:
- Around line 199-216: Update the draft configuration flow around
_create_draft_vllm_config and plan.bind so B12X max_page_table_width remains
aligned with the target-sized BlockTables.input_block_tables capacity. Do not
rely on copy.copy alone for refreshed derived sizing; either preserve full
block-table capacity in B12X plans or validate and constrain the runtime table
before binding, ensuring replay cannot exceed planned capacity.

64K-token bound, then set it to a negative value and assert the expected
rejection. Reuse the existing config and
MLACommonMetadataBuilder.determine_chunked_prefill_workspace_size path for both
cases.

In `@tests/kernels/moe/test_fused_topk.py`:
- Around line 141-162: Update

both paths are compared under identical routing settings.

In `@tests/v1/attention/test_b12x_mla.py`:

report its warmed-signature count separately so the existing “B12X DCP
collective signature(s)” log only counts DCP warmups.

In `@vllm/models/kimi_k3/nvidia/kda.py`:
- Around line 340-359: Merge the two self.shard_f_a conditionals in the
initialization logic so the divisibility assertion, local_fa_size calculation,
and logger.info_once call execute within one block; preserve the existing
disabled-path assignment and all current validation and logging behavior.

In `@vllm/models/kimi_k3/nvidia/mla.py`:
- Around line 764-771: Remove the redundant not self.impl_handles_dcp conditions
and repeated self.dcp_manager non-null assertions in the forward MQA path around
self.impl.forward_mqa. Since dcp_manager is only created when DCP is active and
impl_handles_dcp is false, use direct self.dcp_manager checks while preserving
the existing query_gather and subsequent DCP handling.

In `@vllm/models/kimi_k3/nvidia/model.py`:
- Around line 402-410: The KimiColumnParallelGate.forward_local override must
match the tuple return contract of KimiPaddedColumnParallelLinear.forward_local.
Update forward_local to return the computed output together with None, and
adjust its forward method to unpack or otherwise handle that tuple before
gathering and slicing the projection.

In `@vllm/models/kimi_k3/nvidia/ops/topk16.cu`:
- Around line 133-140: Update the topk16_sigmoid signature to use std::optional

In `@vllm/models/kimi_k3/nvidia/ops/topk16.py`:
- Around line 13-23: Update kimi_k3_triton_warmup() to call _load_extension()

CUDA graph capture. Keep the existing cached loader behavior unchanged.

In `@vllm/v1/attention/backends/mla/b12x_mla.py`:
- Around line 288-292: Update the dcp-rank initialization in the MLA builder to
use the distributed-state predicate exported by parallel_state (confirm its
exact name) before calling get_dcp_group(). Assign rank_in_group only when DCP
is initialized; otherwise retain the unit-test fallback rank of 0, and remove
the AssertionError-based control flow.
- Around line 965-973: Cache VLLM_KIMI_DEBUG_FINITE through the project’s
vllm.envs feature-flag mechanism, adding the setting there if needed, and
replace both per-forward os.environ.get checks in the B12X MLA implementation
with the cached flag. Preserve the existing debug validation behavior and flag
value semantics.

- Around line 579-621: Define module-level constants for the K3 TP16 geometry,
including tensor-parallel size, per-rank latent width, per-rank expert count,
and their gathered widths; derive the gathered widths from the per-rank values.
In the validation block and both torch.empty calls, replace the literals 16,
224, 56, 896, and 3584 with the appropriate named constants while preserving the
existing shapes and behavior.

In `@vllm/v1/worker/gpu/spec_decode/dflash/speculator.py`:
- Around line 62-75: Remove the unused _bounded_draft_kv_shift helper, including
its validation and related implementation, since
_shift_draft_block_tables_kernel already performs the required window-shift
calculation. Ensure no callers or necessary imports depend on the helper.

In `@vllm/v1/worker/gpu/spec_decode/dspark/speculator.py`:
- Around line 257-272: Gate the _captured_markov_hidden and
_captured_base_logits allocations in the _markov_outside_cudagraph
initialization path on the resolved CUDA-graph mode, or defer them until the
first capture-only call. Ensure CUDA-graph-disabled eager _sample_sequential
execution does not allocate these unused buffers, while preserving allocation
before any path that requires them.

Serve the official MXFP4 checkpoint and tensor-parallel-independent QSRT checkpoints through B12X dense MLA, routed MoE, projection collectives, exact expert selection, and PCIe vocabulary reduction. Support DCP4, DCP8, and DCP16 with target-only, DSpark, and DFlash execution, bounded prefill workspace, graph-owned scratch, and InstantTensor loading.

Kimi-K3 has 896 routed experts and projection shapes that do not divide uniformly across TP16. The integration preserves canonical expert identities, gathers only required projection rows, sanitizes empty DCP shards before LSE reduction, and maintains causal and non-causal speculative metadata. A narrow backport from vllm-project/flash-attention initializes FA4 split-KV state and passes dynamic-causal metadata without importing unrelated SM90 FP8-KV changes.

Compatibility: model-specific gates preserve other architectures and TP12/DCP1 QSRT behavior. Process groups without B12X pools retain no-op graph-capture behavior. Zero keeps automatic MLA workspace sizing; negative explicit bounds fail configuration.

Validation: Ruff and Python compilation pass for every changed Python file. Focused CPU and GPU-visible suites pass 54 tests with 11 hardware-inapplicable skips. The FA4 patch applies to flash-attention f3e1a4f74c99145c0717709860bf765de1703779 and produces the qualified wrapper SHA-256 80058d9ea24fb51eaf1edecf4413d9c2008b0a5538127263a2e2500e8f838479. Full-model qualification results are recorded in the pull request.

AI assistance: Codex composed the implementation, generated tests and validation commands, and inspected the resulting diff. Human review remains required for merge.

Regenerate the patch with context lines.

The zero-context hunks are accepted after a one-line source shift. The self.is_split_kv = False insertion then occurs inside the preceding assert, which makes the Python file invalid. Use normal git diff context so line shifts fail instead of misplacing additions.

mDynamicCausal is correctly placed after mSeqUsedK in both locations. Optional is already imported from typing.

Apply the FlashAttention source patch idempotently, compile the fused Kimi router before graph capture, preserve the draft checkpoint quantization config, and validate the complete sharded Markov all-reduce shape. Expose the active hierarchical B12X all-reduce runtime required by captured sharded Markov sampling.

Validation: Ruff and compileall pass for affected Python files; 12 focused CPU tests pass with 9 CUDA-only skips; the FlashAttention patch applies exactly once across two invocations at f3e1a4f74c99145c0717709860bf765de1703779.

This aggregate change is superseded by the independently reviewable vLLM pull requests #382 through #391.

Those pull requests preserve the required Kimi-K3 behavior as separate units for bounded InstantTensor loading, hybrid KV-cache geometry, DCP collectives, projection sharding, routed-MoE transport, dense MLA, external speculative runtimes, bounded DSpark state, vocabulary-sharded DSpark sampling, and tensor-parallel-specific B12X graph allocation.

The composed vLLM source tree is f21a391de0a1b127c93ac718fd7d1818f025317b. It passed 531 tests with 2 skips and 20 explicit deselections. Runtime qualification, merge order, source locks, and the published Docker image are recorded in local-inference-lab/rtx6kpro#66.

Closing #317 prevents the aggregate patch from competing with the reviewable source units.
