Motivation

CUDA device-side assertion triggered in update_sliding_window_buffer when using SWA with radix cache:
image

Root Cause, Type mismatch in the data pipeline:
KV indices were cloned and stored in radix tree as int32
window_kv_indices is created as int64
Type inconsistency in Triton kernel operations causes invalid memory access

Solution:
Explicitly convert page_aligned_kv_indices to torch.int64 before storing in radix tree

Summary of Changes

Hello @hzh0425, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses a critical type inconsistency within the SWARadixCache that was causing CUDA device-side assertions and invalid memory access. By explicitly casting KV indices to torch.int64 before they are stored in the radix tree, the change ensures data type alignment across the system, thereby enhancing the stability and correctness of the caching mechanism.

Highlights

  • Problem Identification: A CUDA device-side assertion was occurring due to a type mismatch where KV indices were stored as int32 in the radix tree but expected as int64 in Triton kernel operations, leading to invalid memory access.
  • Solution Implemented: The page_aligned_kv_indices are now explicitly converted to torch.int64 using to(dtype=torch.int64, copy=True) before being stored in the radix tree, ensuring type consistency.
  • Affected Functions: This type conversion has been applied in both the cache_finished_req and cache_unfinished_req methods within the SWARadixCache class.

Code Review

This pull request correctly fixes a type inconsistency issue for KV indices in SWARadixCache by explicitly converting them to torch.int64. This prevents a potential CUDA assertion failure and ensures the stability of the data pipeline.

I've added a couple of suggestions to refactor the modified code blocks. These changes will reduce code duplication and improve readability and maintainability without altering the logic.
