Code Review
This pull request refactors the spawn_new_process_for_each_test decorator, reorganizes CUDA graph integration tests into a class, and converts logit processor tests to be asynchronous. However, the updated decorator is non-functional as it fails to pass arguments to the subprocess, does not actually invoke the test function, and lacks support for asynchronous tests. Additionally, the CUDA graph tests contain logic errors where modified capture sizes cause key collisions and the use of unpadded descriptors prevents successful graph replays.

This implementation of spawn_new_process_for_each_test is non-functional and re-introduces the silent failure swallowing issue:
- Arguments are lost: The
argsandkwargspassed to thewrapperare not included in thecloudpickle.dumpscall at line 1540. The subprocess will not have the necessary inputs to call the function. - Function is not executed: The command
python -m {module_name}(line 1547) merely imports the module. It does not contain any logic to read the pickled function fromstdinor invoke it. - False Positives: Because the subprocess just imports the module and exits successfully, the test is marked as passed without ever running the test logic. This is likely why CI appears to be fixed by this revert—the tests are simply no longer running.

The decorator does not correctly handle async test functions. If f is an asynchronous function, the call f(*args, **kwargs) returns a coroutine that must be awaited. Without an event loop to run the coroutine in the subprocess, the test body will never execute. This is a critical issue for tests like test_custom_logitsprocs in tests/v1/logits_processors/test_custom_online.py, which have been converted to async in this PR.

The change in cudagraph_capture_sizes from [1, 2] to [10, 20] breaks the logic of test_capture_replay_bypass_logic. In the test, input_1 (size 1) and input_2 (size 2) are used. With the new sizes, both will be padded to 10 and map to the same cache key. Consequently, the second capture attempt at line 465 will actually result in a 'replay', causing the assertion action == "capture_global" to fail.

The refactored test uses the unpadded desc_2 instead of the padded key returned by the dispatcher at line 463. Since the CUDAGraphWrapper stores entries using the padded descriptor, it will not find the existing entry for desc_2, causing the action == "replay" assertion to fail as it will likely trigger a new capture instead.

Please do not merge that autog-enerated revert#41887. I've submitted a targeted fix in #41895 that restores mp.set_start_method("spawn") for XPU/ROCm compatibility without reverting the entire #41423 fix. The 3 CI failures in build #64792 are pre-existing bugs that were silently swallowed by the old decorator — not regressions. Reverting #41423 would bring back the silent failure swallowing behavior, which is worse. Additionally, as @gemini-code-assist noted, the reimplementation in this revert PR is non-functional — it doesn't pass args/kwargs to the subprocess, so tests would appear to pass without actually running. Please close this revert and let #41895 land instead. Happy to follow up with fixes for the 3 exposed pre-existing failures separately. |

@dzhengAP can you check if the distributed tests failure is still there? I think the pytorch tests have been fixed |

Let me check Luka

@ProExpertProg Investigated build #64792:

Auto-Revert
This reverts #41423 (merge commit ee38750).
Reason: This PR is linked to 3 new CI failures in build #64792:
The fix to
spawn_new_process_for_each_testnow properly reports subprocess failures that were previously silently swallowed, exposing pre-existing test issues. While the fix itself is correct, the newly-exposed failures need to be addressed before re-landing.
