Purpose

External KV connectors need the recurrent state computed at the same token
boundary as the attention cache object they store. Hybrid Mamba/GDN requests
do not keep every historical recurrent state in their append-only request block
table, so positional block lookup cannot identify that state reliably.

This pull request exports scheduler-authoritative recurrent boundary blocks and
ensures that a positive prefix_cache_retention_interval is materialized even
when a fragmented scheduler budget would otherwise cross the boundary.

Resulting behavior

  • The scheduler output carries the exact recurrent boundary-state blocks and
    the authoritative per-group request block tables consumed by KV connectors.
  • Mamba align-mode records retained boundary states by exact token count and
    keeps their source blocks valid for asynchronous connector handoff.
  • A request using a positive prefix_cache_retention_interval stops at the next
    retention boundary when the remaining scheduler budget would cross it. A
    zero interval preserves the existing unrestricted scheduling behavior.
  • External computed-token allocation never requests a negative block count when
    speculative local allocation already exceeds the externally restored prefix.

The exact-boundary implementation preserves Yifan Qiao's authorship from vLLM
commit 6b110badbb22d3f66c7218b71138f13b7a6b3419. The external-allocation guard
preserves haic0's authorship from vLLM commit
53bf99050213da20fe29bb6dbb49eed5fad813dc.

Compatibility

  • Default serving is unchanged because prefix_cache_retention_interval=0.
  • Existing connectors can ignore the additional scheduler block state.
  • The retention interval must be compatible with the resolved recurrent cache
    block size; existing configuration validation enforces that constraint.

Validation

Validation used dev/jovian-judgement@0230ec1ed7265f446e56078b34484ca107dfdee5
and the three commits in this pull request.

  • 257 passed: complete Mamba chunk scheduling, single-type cache management,
    partial-prefix caching, Mooncake store scheduler, and Mooncake store worker
    test files.
  • Ruff, formatting, mypy, sign-off, SPDX, lazy-import, and configuration-default
    pre-commit hooks passed.
  • TP4 byte-level qualification on four NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell
    Workstation Edition GPUs restored 8,192 external tokens into disjoint block
    allocations and matched every live recurrent and attention-cache byte on all
    four ranks for no-speculative, MTP:3, and DFlash2 serving.
  • DRAM L1 and native-filesystem L2 qualification each restored 12,288 external
    tokens; a complete vLLM and cache-server restart restored the same prefix from
    L2.
  • DFlash2 DCP4 full-CKV qualification matched four recurrent groups, rank-local
    target attention blocks, and the active 2,048-token draft sliding window on
    every rank.

The TP4 qualification stack also contained vLLM PRs #550 and #552 through #555
and LMCache PR #33 plus its scheduler-authoritative source-lifetime follow-up.
Those changes remain separate review and merge units.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Improved prefix-cache offloading for hybrid Mamba workloads using aligned boundary snapshots and exact cache blocks.
    • Added support for multiple Mamba groups, resumed prefills, sparse retention, and copy-on-write cache handoffs.
    • Cache connector metadata now carries consistent block-state information for offloading and restoration.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented cache corruption and invalid free-block accounting during speculative allocation.
    • Improved handling of released cache blocks and retention boundaries.
    • Excluded Mamba state from ordinary cache storage while preserving boundary lookups.

Signed-off-by: Martin Vit <martin@voipmonitor.org>
Stop align-mode prefills at each positive prefix-cache retention boundary so fragmented scheduler budgets cannot skip the exact recurrent state required by external cache restore. This does not alter chunks that already end on a retention boundary.

Validate DFlash target scheduling with seven reserved draft rows and a 4096-token retention interval.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change replaces partial-tail offloads with boundary-state handoffs. It adds aligned Mamba snapshots, exact block tracking, retention-boundary chunk splitting, CoW block validation, Mamba-aware store routing, and expanded scheduler, worker, and prefix-cache tests.

Changes

Boundary-State Offload Flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Core boundary-state contract and production
vllm/v1/core/..., tests/v1/core/...
Cache managers emit boundary-state offloads with exact block IDs. Scheduler output carries them with request block tables. Retention boundaries stop chunk splitting.
Store-job routing and Mamba exclusion
vllm/distributed/kv_transfer/kv_connector/v1/mooncake/store/{data.py,coordinator.py,scheduler.py}, vllm/distributed/kv_transfer/kv_connector/v1/offloading/scheduler.py, tests/v1/kv_connector/unit/...
Store schedulers validate aligned handoffs, pin exact blocks, exclude Mamba groups from positional saves, and create aligned or sub-block jobs.
Worker snapshot and tail writes
vllm/distributed/kv_transfer/kv_connector/v1/mooncake/store/worker.py, tests/v1/kv_connector/unit/test_mooncake_store_worker.py, tests/v1/kv_connector/unit/test_mooncake_store_hma_e2e.py
Workers write aligned snapshots and sub-block tails using supplied Mamba boundary blocks, filtered groups, and valid replication metadata.
Boundary-state lifecycle validation
tests/v1/core/prefix_cache/test_partial_prefix_cache_hits.py, tests/v1/kv_connector/unit/test_offloading_connector.py, tests/v1/kv_connector/unit/test_scheduler_kv_connector_override.py
Tests cover exact snapshot IDs, sparse retention, resumed prefills, CoW release and reuse, request cleanup, token alignment, and connector metadata propagation.

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

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3ef77

The PR improves exact recurrent-cache boundaries and retention scheduling, but current edge cases can abort scheduling, cause hybrid-cache misses, or leave an intended external cache entry unavailable after a failed write. These bounded correctness and recovery risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

Restrict mamba_group_ids to align-mode groups. MooncakeStoreWorker constructs MooncakeStoreCoordinator directly, while connector validation checks only block-size equality and does not reject "none" or "all". The scheduler assertion does not protect worker-side store and lookup calls. For a non-align Mamba group that passes validation, store_mask skips all chunks, while lookup_mask requests them, so hybrid lookups can miss every stored entry.

Guard save metadata when the scheduler has no block table.

When num_external_tokens == 0, update_state_after_alloc sets LoadSpec.can_load to False and records the request as unfinished. The pending-load branch can then create a ReqMeta with can_save=True while the scheduler omits that request from KVConnectorBlockState.block_ids. _apply_current_save_block_ids can therefore abort the scheduling step on its assertion. Skip the save when the block table is absent, or snapshot every unfinished request.

* Preserve aligned cache reuse alongside request boundary checkpoints

Port the qualified hybrid retention, fine-hit, event, exact external-state,
and aligned-budget changes onto dev/jovian-judgement. Keep endpoint bundles
private and preserve their allocation, reader, and invalidation lifecycle.

Retain the behavioral contributions from PRs #557, #643, #645, #646,
#655, #656, #657, and #663. Resolve shared helpers once so fine and coarse
replay boundaries are not expanded twice.

Validation: 910 cache, scheduler, parser, event, connector, and endpoint
regressions pass. The three literal LP26 cache regressions also pass.
