With #54901 now merged, I wanted to briefly follow up on this PR. Its description notes that this fix could lift the current restriction on combining --return-sampling-mask with --enable-batch-sharded-sampling. This seems to indicate that the two changes are complementary, and that this PR could help complete support for this sampling-mask configuration. |

📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughBatch-sharded sampling now supports returned sampling masks. The sampler computes a bounded mask width, tensor-parallel ranks gather and reorder mask tensors, configuration validation permits the combination, and tests cover mixed-owner sharding. ChangesBatch-sharded sampling mask support
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Batch-sharded sampling can now return sampling masks, but custom samplers using the prior interface may fail at runtime when masks are enabled. The configuration should remain blocked or custom sampler support and coverage should be added before merge. Suggested reviewers: Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

RejectionSampler.__call__ and gather_sampler_output so sampling masks are
handled before gathering outputs: either have RejectionSampler construct and
return sampling_mask_tensors when return_sampling_mask is enabled, or bypass
mask gathering for speculative decoding. Preserve normal mask gathering behavior
and prevent the assertion caused by None masks.

Preserve the custom sampler protocol.
When a model supplies a custom sampler and return_sampling_mask=True, Line 1483 requires get_sampling_mask_width, and Line 1495 passes sampling_mask_width. A sampler that supports the prior __call__(logits, input_batch) protocol fails with AttributeError or TypeError before sampling. The custom sampler in tests/v1/worker/test_gpu_model_runner_v2.py has that prior shape.
Extend the custom-sampler contract to produce sampling masks, or reject this configuration during setup with a clear error. Add coverage for the enabled-mask custom-sampler path.
Also applies to: 1495-1499

Purpose
This is a regression introduced by the merge of #50465. The earlier #49577
change added sampling-distribution replay and
--return-sampling-mask, while#50465 added batch-sharded sampler-output gathering without forwarding the
existing sampling-mask metadata through that path.
When Model Runner V2 uses batch-sharded sampling with tensor parallelism, the
sampler can produce
SamplingMaskTensorswhen--return-sampling-maskisenabled, but
gather_sampler_output()drops them while gathering the sampledtokens and logprobs. The request still completes successfully, but the
sampling_maskfield in the generate response isnull.This makes sampling-distribution replay unusable for this explicitly supported
combination, which affects RL and other consumers that need the post-processing
token support. The default sampling path and batch-sharded sampling without
sampling masks are unchanged.
The fix pads each rank's packed masks and counts to the common per-rank request
capacity, all-gathers both tensors only when sampling masks are requested, and
uses the existing owner-to-global request mapping to restore the original batch
order. A regression test covers both a rank that owns no requests and mixed-owner
request ordering.
Duplicate-work check
Duplicate-work check: searched open PRs and issues for
batch-sharded sampling mask,return_sampling_mask, and related terms on 2026-08-26; no existing fixwas found. This PR addresses the integration gap between #49577 and #50465:
the sampling-mask output path exists, and batch-sharded sampling exists, but
their sampler-output gathering path did not preserve the mask metadata.
Reproduction
Start a server with Model Runner V2, tensor parallelism, batch-sharded sampling,
and sampling-mask output enabled:
MODEL_ID=Qwen/Qwen3.5-0.8B-Base VLLM_USE_V2_MODEL_RUNNER=1 \ vllm serve "$MODEL_ID" \ --host 127.0.0.1 \ --port 18080 \ --tensor-parallel-size 2 \ --enable-batch-sharded-sampling \ --return-sampling-mask \ --logprobs-mode processed_logprobs \ --max-model-len 256 \ --max-num-seqs 2 \ --gpu-memory-utilization 0.35 \ --enforce-eager \ --no-enable-prefix-caching \ --trust-remote-codeSend a non-greedy request with
top_k > 0through the token-in/token-outendpoint:
The observed unpatched baseline returned HTTP 200 and completed generation, but
the choice contained:
The fixed run returned HTTP 200 with the following output fields:
For this request, the internal CSR representation was:
Both generated tokens are members of their corresponding support set, and each
support set has four tokens, which is at most
top_k=5. The generated token IDsin the baseline and fixed runs are not used as a quality comparison; the
metadata-preservation check is the presence, alignment, and cardinality of the
support sets.
Test Plan
empty local shard, and mixed-owner ordering.
vllm servereproduction above and send the seeded request to/inference/v1/generate.Test Result
pytest -q tests/v1/worker/test_gpu_batch_shard.py: 18 passed.ruff checkandruff format --check: passed.mypy, SPDX, forbidden-import, and configuration checks.
vllm serveverification: the unpatched baseline returned HTTP200 with
sampling_mask: null; the fixed seeded run (seed=123) returnedHTTP 200 with
token_ids=[410, 149852],offsets=[0, 4, 8],counts=[4, 4], and two four-token support sets. The generated tokens werepresent in their matching support sets.
No documentation update is required because this change restores the behavior
of the existing
--return-sampling-maskoption.Model Evaluation
Not applicable. This change does not alter sampled token IDs, logits, logprobs,
or filtering behavior; it only preserves already-produced sampling-mask
metadata through batch-sharded result gathering. Traditional quality or
perplexity evaluation would not detect this metadata-only regression. The
baseline/fixed serving comparison above validates the affected output contract.
