Conversation
Hybrid models keep several independently evicted caches per worker (vLLM: KV cache groups — full attention, sliding window, Mamba/GDN state). vLLM reports each block store and removal with the group it belongs to, its cache kind and, for window groups, the window. The bridge dropped all three, so every consumer folded the groups into one position set: a window group freeing its old blocks looked like a hole in the full-attention prefix, and a recurrent group's sparse checkpoints looked like a contiguous prefix. Add optional cache_group, cache_kind and sliding_window to KvBlocksStored and cache_group to KvBlocksRemoved, and have the vLLM converter set them when the event schema reports them (older schemas have no such attributes and nothing changes). Consumers that keep one position set per worker ignore the new fields; the shared index keeps one holder per (worker, group). The alignment guard from #2495 still applies to group stores.

🟡 Nit: When group_idx is present but malformed, cache_group is dropped while cache_kind is still emitted — and nothing is logged.
test_malformed_group_is_not_reported pins exactly this shape: cache_kind == "mamba" with no cache_group. On the wire that is a recurrent-cache store that a consumer keying on (worker, group) will file into the "worker has one cache" holder, right next to full-attention blocks — the mis-scoring this PR exists to prevent, happening silently. Every other rejection path in this module (Skipping BlockStored: ..., Failed to decode KV event batch, Unknown KV event type) logs; this one doesn't, so a schema drift in vLLM would degrade routing quality with no signal anywhere.
Suggest distinguishing "attribute absent" (legacy schema, silent — the common case) from "attribute present but unusable" (log once at warning), and skipping cache_kind/sliding_window too when the group is unknown, since a kind without a group can't be acted on. Something like:
_MISSING = object()
def _cache_group(event: object) -> int | None:
group = getattr(event, "group_idx", _MISSING)
if group is _MISSING or group is None:
return None # legacy schema, or engine reports no group
if isinstance(group, bool) or not isinstance(group, int) or not 0 <= group < 2**32:
logger.warning("Ignoring unusable KV cache group index %r", group)
return None
return groupand gating the kind/window assignment on a non-None result.

🟡 Nit: sliding_window is missing the uint32 range check that cache_group got.
_set_cache_group bounds-checks 0 <= group < 2**32 precisely because assigning an out-of-range value to a proto uint32 raises ValueError. Here only window > 0 is checked, so an out-of-range window raises instead of being dropped — and convert_batch → convert_event is called at line 190 outside the try that guards decode(), so the exception escapes the stream_kv_events async generator and tears down the whole KV-event stream for that worker, not just the one field.
A 4-billion-token window is not realistic, but the adjacent field is hardened against exactly this and this one isn't. Same upper bound keeps the two consistent:
| window = getattr(event, "kv_cache_spec_sliding_window", None) | |
| if isinstance(window, int) and not isinstance(window, bool) and window > 0: | |
| stored.sliding_window = window | |
| window = getattr(event, "kv_cache_spec_sliding_window", None) | |
| if isinstance(window, int) and not isinstance(window, bool) and 0 < window < 2**32: | |
| stored.sliding_window = window |

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Validate the upper bound for sliding_window.
vLLM defines BlockStored.kv_cache_spec_sliding_window as int | None without a 32-bit limit, so a malformed event can provide a positive value at or above 2**32. The protobuf uint32 setter raises ValueError for that value. convert_batch has no per-event error boundary, and stream_kv_events catches only decode errors, so the exception can terminate the event stream. The schema requires the field to be zero or absent otherwise; leave malformed values unset.

Closing: the vLLM feed side (event schema and converter) belongs to the group-events work in #2497, not to the index stack. The index keeps its engine-neutral lane/interval model without a wire change. |

Description
Problem
Hybrid models keep several independently evicted caches per worker: vLLM calls them KV cache groups (full attention, sliding window, Mamba/GDN state). vLLM reports every block store and removal with the group it belongs to, the group's cache kind and, for a window group, the window. The bridge dropped all three. Every consumer therefore folded the groups into one position set per worker, where a window group freeing its old blocks looks like a hole in the full-attention prefix, and a recurrent group's sparse checkpoints look like a contiguous prefix. Both mis-score the worker.
Solution
Carry the group on the wire and change nothing else.
KvBlocksStoredgains optionalcache_group,cache_kindandsliding_window;KvBlocksRemovedgains optionalcache_group. The vLLM converter sets them when the installed event schema hasgroup_idx/kv_cache_spec_kind/kv_cache_spec_sliding_window(current vLLM main does), and leaves them unset for older schemas. Consumers that keep one position set per worker ignore the fields; the shared index (#2437) keeps one holder per (worker, group) and the gateway (#2438) applies the reuse rules. The alignment guard from #2495 still applies to group stores.Changes
crates/grpc_client/proto/common.proto: three optional fields onKvBlocksStored, one onKvBlocksRemoved(additive; Go bindings untouched, unknown fields are ignored there).grpc_servicer/smg_grpc_servicer/kv_events.py: populate them from the vLLM event when present; malformed or absent group indices are not reported.crates/mock_worker,model_gateway/src/worker/kv_event_monitor.rs: struct literals gain the new fields (None).Test Plan
grpc_servicer/tests/test_vllm_kv_events.py: legacy schema reports no group; group fields ride the wire untouched (store and remove); a full-attention group has no window; malformed group indices (None,-1,2**32,True,"0") are not reported; group stores still require dense alignment.cargo check -p smg-grpc-client -p mock-worker -p smg --all-targets;cargo +1.98.0 clippy -p mock-worker -p smg-grpc-client --all-targets -- -D warnings;cargo test -p mock-worker.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
