Purpose

SimpleCPUOffloadScheduler reconstructs each cache group's block size as spec.block_size * cp_world_size. Only full attention is sharded across DCP ranks: dcp_world_size_for_kv_cache_spec() keeps Mamba, sliding-window and chunked-local specs at dcp_world_size=1. Scaling every group therefore maps the replicated groups onto the wrong geometry on hybrid models under DCP.

Two failure modes, depending on how the group block sizes relate:

  • The per-group alignment assertion in the load path fires and engine start-up fails.
  • The assertion happens to pass and recurrent state is loaded into the wrong destination blocks, which is silent.

On the store side the same expression caps how many blocks of a replicated group are ever offloaded.

Changes

  • Expose group_block_sizes on KVCacheCoordinator so the resolved per-group geometry has a single source, and use it in the SimpleCPU offload load and store paths.
  • Use dcp_world_size_for_kv_cache_spec() in the lazy watermark estimate, which previously under-counted the blocks to reserve for sliding-window groups. The estimate runs before the coordinator exists, so it resolves the DCP size directly rather than through the coordinator.
  • Emit BlockStored events with the resolved group block size instead of re-deriving the DCP scaling from the spec type. The previous expression special-cased MambaSpec only and over-reported block_size for other replicated specs.

Test Plan

  • tests/v1/simple_kv_offload/test_scheduler.py
  • Kimi-K3 on 8x MI355X, TP8 / DCP8, fp8 KV cache, SimpleCPU offload enabled.

Test Result

Unit tests: 37 passed in tests/v1/simple_kv_offload/test_scheduler.py; 121 passed together with tests/v1/core/prefix_cache/test_partial_prefix_cache_hits.py and tests/v1/kv_connector/unit/test_mooncake_store_scheduler.py.

End to end on Kimi-K3, TP8 / DCP8, fp8 KV cache, per-rank attention and Mamba block 1536, so with DCP8 the effective attention block and the scheduler block are 12288 while Mamba stays at 1536; prefix-match unit 1536: the engine starts and serves requests. Without this change the same configuration either trips the per-group alignment assertion at start-up or maps replicated groups onto the wrong destination blocks.

Post-rebase validation (2026-09-07)

Rebased onto main 8ebc5b0a1, which includes #53614's Kimi-K3 internal checkpoint and partial-prefix changes. The only conflict was adjacent initialization in KVCacheCoordinator: the upstream Mamba/Eagle checkpoint setup and this PR's resolved group_block_sizes initialization are both preserved.

Latest head: 140d7382a.

Focused hybrid geometry and lazy-watermark tests:

4 passed, 125 deselected

Changed-file ruff check, ruff format --check, Python compilation, and git diff --check pass. The downstream #54736 stack, which contains this commit, also passes Kimi-Linear TP2/DCP2 and Kimi-K3 TP8/DCP8 real-model correctness validation.

Walkthrough

The CPU offload scheduler now uses coordinator-provided group block sizes for initialization, capacity estimation, allocation accounting, eager storage selection, and stored-block metadata. Lazy target sizing applies DCP sharding only to full-attention specifications. Hybrid attention and Mamba coverage was added.

Changes

KV cache block sizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Capture coordinated block sizes
vllm/v1/simple_kv_offload/manager.py
SimpleCPUOffloadScheduler imports the DCP helper, captures group_block_sizes from the CPU coordinator, and derives fa_block_size from the full-attention group.
Apply block sizes to scheduling calculations
vllm/v1/simple_kv_offload/manager.py
Lazy target, allocation, computed-block, eager-storage, and stored-block calculations use coordinated group block sizes. Lazy target sizing applies DCP sharding only to full-attention specifications.
Validate hybrid attention and Mamba sizing
tests/v1/simple_kv_offload/test_scheduler.py
The test setup creates full-attention and Mamba groups, configures Mamba cache mode and KV-cache events, and verifies DCP scaling for attention and replicated block handling for Mamba during offload.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to fb6be

This updates hybrid DCP offload geometry handling, but the new regression fixture can allocate a CPU capacity different from its requested block count. The production change is otherwise covered by the added hybrid test; align fixture capacity before merge to keep the boundary assertion reliable.

AMD CI follow-up for final head 6fb3c3ecadd5:

  • The PR-related MI300 V1 Core + KV + Metrics step passes in AMD CI #12807.
  • The only hard failures are the MI300 and MI355 Speech-to-Text steps. Both fail while starting google/gemma-3n-E2B-it in ROCM_AITER_FA, where key is None at rocm_aiter_fa.py:1208. Neither path configures SimpleCPU offload or instantiates the scheduler changed by this PR.
  • Retrying both failed Speech-to-Text jobs reproduced the identical failure on MI300 and MI355, so this is not a transient failure.
  • The updated event test passes locally in CPU platform mode: focused test 1 passed; full test_kv_events.py 13 passed.

✅ Queued 2 failed job(s) for retry in Buildkite AMD CI #12807.

Use the coordinator's resolved per-group block sizes when mapping SimpleCPU
offload transfers in hybrid DCP layouts. Only full attention is sharded
across DCP ranks; mamba, sliding window and chunked-local specs keep
replicated per-rank state and must not be scaled by the DCP world size.
Scaling every group by cp_world_size mapped the replicated groups onto the
wrong block geometry.

Expose group_block_sizes on the coordinator so the resolved sizes have a
single source, and apply it to the lazy watermark estimate too, where the
same hand-rolled formula under-counted the blocks to reserve for sliding
window groups.

Signed-off-by: Yichao Zhu <Yichao.Zhu@amd.com>
The geometry fix makes Mamba capture and emission use the same resolved unscaled block size. Assert the resulting token slices and parent-hash chain instead of the obsolete metadata guard fallback.
