What does this PR do?

DeepseekV4Attention.__init__ in both vllm/models/deepseek_v4/nvidia/model.py and vllm/models/deepseek_v4/amd/model.py reads config.compress_ratios[layer_id] directly. transformers >= 4.57 normalizes the same JSON field on DeepseekV4Config.__init__ into layer_types (list[str]) + compress_rates (dict[str, int]) and stops exposing compress_ratios, so every DSV4 model fails to load with:

AttributeError: 'DeepseekV4Config' object has no attribute 'compress_ratios'. Did you mean: 'compress_rates'?

Read from the normalized fields when compress_ratios is absent. The per-layer ratio is reconstructed via the documented 1-to-1 mapping compress_ratios[i] == compress_rates.get(layer_types[i], 0), and the existing max(1, ...) clamp keeps the downstream invariant (compress ratio is never 0) intact. Legacy configs with compress_ratios keep the original code path, so anyone pinning a pre-4.57 transformers stack sees no behavior change.

After #43004 ([Model Refactoring] Migrate DeepSeek V4 to vllm/models/) the single vllm/model_executor/models/deepseek_v4.py file split into per-backend forks under vllm/models/deepseek_v4/{amd,nvidia}/model.py, and both forks carry the same buggy direct attribute access. The same fix is applied to both.

Replaces #42806 (against the pre-migration vllm/model_executor/models/deepseek_v4.py).

Closes #42741

Test Plan

  • DeepSeek V4 model load with transformers >= 4.57 (where compress_ratios is absent) via CI.
  • DeepSeek V4 model load with transformers < 4.57 (legacy compress_ratios path) via CI.

Duplicate-work check

gh pr list --repo vllm-project/vllm --state open --search "deepseek_v4 compress_ratios transformers" returns nothing else for #42741. Pre-migration sibling #42806 is being closed in favor of this PR.

AI Assistance Disclosure

Drafted with Claude assistance. I am the human contributor accountable for this PR; I read every changed line, confirmed the AMD and NVIDIA forks carry byte-identical direct config.compress_ratios[layer_id] accesses in DeepseekV4Attention.__init__, and verified the normalized-field reconstruction against the documented 1-to-1 mapping.

…s_ratios (AMD + NVIDIA)

`DeepseekV4Attention.__init__` reads `config.compress_ratios[layer_id]`
directly. transformers >= 4.57 normalizes the same JSON field on
`DeepseekV4Config.__init__` into `layer_types` (list[str]) +
`compress_rates` (dict[str, int]) and stops exposing
`compress_ratios`, so every DSV4 model fails to load with:

  AttributeError: 'DeepseekV4Config' object has no attribute
  'compress_ratios'. Did you mean: 'compress_rates'?

Read from the normalized fields when `compress_ratios` is absent. The
per-layer ratio is reconstructed via the documented 1-to-1 mapping
`compress_ratios[i] == compress_rates.get(layer_types[i], 0)`, and the
existing `max(1, ...)` clamp keeps the downstream invariant (compress
ratio is never 0) intact. Legacy configs with `compress_ratios` keep
the original code path, so anyone pinning a pre-4.57 transformers
stack sees no behavior change.

After vllm-project#43004 ([Model Refactoring] Migrate DeepSeek V4 to vllm/models/)
the single `vllm/model_executor/models/deepseek_v4.py` file split into
per-backend forks under `vllm/models/deepseek_v4/{amd,nvidia}/model.py`,
and both forks carry the same buggy direct attribute access. The same
fix is applied to both files.

A one-line comment above the new branch references vllm-project#42741; the legacy
branch is left uncommented (current code style on the line).

Fixes vllm-project#42741
