scheduler should be aware of this, otherwise, scheduler may publish a invalid state(KDA kernel doesn't write it)
e.g., B=64, H=8, N=100, EAGLE=true, pos=88 has a checkpoint but 88 % 16 != 0

Thanks for the work!
Please also take a look at these AI generated comments
1. On test_kda_metadata.py:
This expectation contradicts the alias guard. Here, initial_state_col = (16 - 1) // 64 = 0 and checkpoint_col = ceil(100 / 64) - 2 = 0, so the checkpoint would overwrite the initial-state slot and must be rejected. This test currently fails because actual.checkpoint is None. Please either assert None and rename the test, or choose dimensions where the two columns are distinct.
2. On scheduler.py:
This change breaks test_hybrid_cache_mamba_align_shared_prefix_detection: its scheduler stub only defines cache_config.block_size, so this line raises AttributeError. Please update the stub in test_prefix_caching.py with block_size=block_size.|

WalkthroughThe change centralizes Mamba prefill-checkpoint rules, adds FlashKDA alignment metadata, updates scheduler and cache-manager handling, supports EAGLE replay boundaries, and expands CUDA and prefix-cache coverage. ChangesMamba checkpoint flow
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This change expands Mamba checkpointing for speculative decoding and partial-prefix caching. Wrapped Mamba cache specifications may still bypass checkpoint support, which can reduce caching effectiveness and add unnecessary prefill work; this is a bounded follow-up risk.

and cache_partial_checkpoint_block to store the reserved slot index together
with checkpoint_position, then use that stored index when deriving
checkpoint_idx instead of recomputing from the reduced num_tokens value. Ensure
KVCacheCoordinator.cache_blocks and _cache_partial_tail_block preserve the
reserved slot across block-boundary reductions so checkpoint blocks cannot be
re-keyed to the preceding block.

Thanks for the work, could you also shrink the diff so it is easier to land? Ideally < 600 LOC
Also please take a loot at these AI generated comments
1. On single_type_kv_cache_manager.py:
Block-aligned EAGLE checkpoints also need re-keying. With hash_block_size == mamba_block_size == 32 and num_tokens=104, the worker writes state@64 into the reserved slot, but this early return leaves that block registered and offloaded as state@96. A connector may later restore state@64 as state@96, producing incorrect output. Please either write the checkpoint to its natural slot or replace the reserved block’s hash even when the checkpoint is block-aligned.
2. On kda_metadata.py:
This direct access breaks test_kda_recoverssm_startup_metadata_flow_without_model, whose cache_config stub does not define prefix_match_unit. The test now fails with AttributeError. Please add prefix_match_unit=None to that fixture or use a compatible fallback here.

Thanks for the suggestion, both comments are correct, now use also shrink the diff(mostly the test code) for better landing the PR. |

Purpose
Extend the Kimi-K3 prefill checkpoint optimization from #52789 to support:
prefix_match_unit < Mamba block size); andThe cache manager and FlashKDA worker share the same checkpoint-validity rules, so a checkpoint block is allocated and hashed only when the worker can write it. For an aligned partial checkpoint, the already reserved request-owned checkpoint block is re-keyed from its provisional boundary to the state position actually exported by FlashKDA.
This PR keeps the block allocation, eviction, and free lifecycle introduced in #52789.
Test Plan
DSconv-state layout), prefix caching, and publicInferact/Kimi-K3-DSparkspeculative decoding.prefix_match_unit=128by sending exact token-ID prompts to/v1/completions: 8 streams grow from 120K to 164K by 2K per round, with a barrier between rounds and three measured repeats per variant.Nightly image used for the latest regression:
The PR source was overlaid on this image and
_C_stable_libtorch.sowas rebuiltfrom the same
maincommit because the binary bundled in the image predates thecurrent Kimi-K3 custom-op ABI.
Important server options for the latest run:

Static and unit tests
B=H=32, prompt length 104, and Eagle rewind: the provisionalhash@96checkpoint block is re-keyed to the exportedstate@64boundary, and the stale hash is removed.Latest-nightly TP8 performance
The PR-description workload was run unchanged: exact token-ID prompts sent to
/v1/completions, 8 streams, 120K to 164K, +2K per round, and a barrier aftereach group of 8 requests. Each variant used one complete unmeasured workload
warmup followed by three measured repeats. All 528 incremental requests per
variant completed without failures.
Partial128 cached 2,394.18 more tokens per incremental request and reduced
recomputation by 49.84%. Incremental P50 TTFT improved by 25.57% and
effective throughput improved by 28.08%. Mean cold TTFT was effectively
unchanged (4,696.35 vs. 4,675.71 ms, -0.44%).
Per-repeat P50 TTFT:
OCR-Bench: D-Spark-7 + Partial128
All three runs used one unchanged deployment and processed the full benchmark sequentially.
All 3,000 responses contained non-empty reasoning. Five responses reached the configured 8,192-token generation limit (1/2/2 across the runs); all were saved and scored. No null-block, stale-state, assertion, or engine failures were observed. Slurm job
12088completed successfully (0:0).MooncakeStore + NIXL PD E2E
Earlier coverage used one TP8 prefill deployment and one TP8 decode deployment. Prefix caching and MooncakeStore (
kv_both, TCP) were enabled only on prefill; NIXL transferred KV state to decode. Three sequential full OCR-Bench runs scored 0.884, 0.885, and 0.896 (mean 0.888), with 3,000/3,000 responses scored, zero request errors, zero empty reasoning traces, and zero suspect responses. The connector logs contained no transfer, assertion, or engine failures.AI assistance was used to implement and refine this change; the author reviewed the changed code and ran the tests above.
