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.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe 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. ChangesBoundary-State Offload Flow
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 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. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

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.

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_intervalis materialized evenwhen a fragmented scheduler budget would otherwise cross the boundary.
Resulting behavior
the authoritative per-group request block tables consumed by KV connectors.
keeps their source blocks valid for asynchronous connector handoff.
prefix_cache_retention_intervalstops at the nextretention boundary when the remaining scheduler budget would cross it. A
zero interval preserves the existing unrestricted scheduling behavior.
speculative local allocation already exceeds the externally restored prefix.
The exact-boundary implementation preserves Yifan Qiao's authorship from vLLM
