Summary

Port of PoC v2 from release/v0.15.1 to release/v0.20.0. Mirrors the
in-flight PR #29 (v0.19) commit-by-commit with v0.20-specific tweaks on top:
attention backend resolution, compilation config skip, baked-in default args,
dtype handling.

Status

  • Validated end-to-end on Kimi-K2.6-INT4 (8× RTX PRO 6000 SE, PP=8,
    TRITON_MLA backend) — vLLM healthy, PoC nonces generating.
  • Ahead of release/v0.20.0 by 21 commits, behind by 1 (drop-in clean).

Commits

15 mirroring PR #29 + 6 v0.20-specific:

  • ed1b07e fix compilation skip
  • 893188b add scratchpad
  • b90121a bake attention backend / logprobs mode / max_num_batched_tokens defaults
  • f16047b fix attention backend
  • 6c10757 fix default args
  • 0be8726 hardcode dtype auto

Test plan

  • vllm cold-start + Kimi-K2.6 load (mlnode-360, mlnode-362)
  • PoC v2 nonces generating against artifact_collection_block_v1
  • Reviewer-side smoke against another model

New files only — no upstream conflicts. Ports vllm/poc/ package
(PoC v2 model runner, routes, callbacks, generate queue, validation)
and vllm/validation.py (EnforcedToken support) from
tg/scratchpad_for_mode unchanged. Adapter patches against the 0.19
sampler/runner API land in subsequent commits.
…fields

Adds optional dataclass fields used by the gonka PoC v2 path:

* SamplingParams.logprobs_mode — per-request override for the
  sampled-token logprobs format ('raw_logprobs' or 'processed_logprobs').
* SamplingParams.enforced_token_ids — enforced next-token sequence for
  validation replay.
* SamplingMetadata.batch_logprobs_mode, logprobs_is_processed,
  enforced_next_token_ids — sampler-side bookkeeping for the same.

Pure additions with default None; behavior unchanged when unset.
Sampler/runner wiring lands in subsequent commits.
Threads an optional need_processed_logprobs flag through forward_native,
forward_cuda, forward_cpu and forward_hip so callers can request
processed (log-softmax) logprobs even on fast paths that normally only
return raw logits. The new .sample() wrapper transparently routes to
forward_native when the active forward implementation cannot satisfy
this (FlashInfer / aiter).

Fast paths fall through to forward_native when need_processed_logprobs
is set; this matches the behavior the gonka PoC v2 sampler relies on.
Default value is False, so existing call sites are unaffected.
Ports three tg/scratchpad_for_mode behaviors onto the 0.19 sampler:

1. Per-request logprobs mode with priority resolution
   (logprobs_mode_override > batch_logprobs_mode > self.logprobs_mode)
   and a raw-override survival guard so a per-request raw_logprobs
   request is not silently overwritten by deployment-default processed
   logprobs returned by the sampler fast path.

2. Mixed-mode batches: when the batch contains rows with different
   logprobs_mode settings, compute both raw and processed logprobs
   and merge per-row via torch.where using
   sampling_metadata.logprobs_is_processed.

3. Enforced token override (gonka PoC v2 replay): after sampling,
   override sampled[mask] = enforced[mask] where
   sampling_metadata.enforced_next_token_ids != -1. This is
   intentionally post-sampling so logprobs remain computed against
   the model's real distribution, which is what PoC validation
   compares against the origin.

topk_topp_sampler is now invoked via the .sample() wrapper added in
the previous commit so need_processed_logprobs falls back to
forward_native on FlashInfer/aiter fast paths when processed logprobs
are required.
…eeping

Adapts the three gonka PoC v2 behaviors in InputBatch against the
0.19 API:

* Per-request logprobs_mode dict (logprobs_modes) populated on
  add_request, cleaned up on remove_request; default source comes
  from a new logprobs_mode_default constructor arg wired by
  GPUModelRunner from model_config.logprobs_mode.
* Aggregated batch_logprobs_mode property: None / single shared mode /
  'mixed' when the batch contains multiple modes.
* Per-request req_enforced_token_ids dict keyed by req_id with
  _build_enforced_tensor() producing a [num_reqs] int64 tensor
  (-1 = no enforcement for that row) indexed by len(output_token_ids)
  so enforced sequences advance each step.
* refresh_metadata() now calls _update_enforced_tensor() on every
  step when the batch contains enforced requests, so the next-token
  override advances even when batch composition is unchanged.
* _make_sampling_metadata() emits batch_logprobs_mode,
  logprobs_is_processed (bool[num_reqs], only materialized in
  'mixed' mode), and enforced_next_token_ids on the SamplingMetadata.

All dicts are keyed by req_id, so swap_states / condense need no
changes. _build_enforced_tensor guards against _req_ids[i] == None
for slots awaiting condense.
Wires the gonka PoC v2 API surface into the OpenAI entrypoints:

* api_server.py: register the vllm.poc.routes router in build_app
  just before app.root_path is set.
* server_utils.py: clear the PoC generate queue in the lifespan
  finally block (lifespan moved to server_utils.py in 0.19; the
  0.15.1 patch applied this inside api_server.py).
* chat_completion/api_router.py, completion/api_router.py: priority
  gating — when vllm.poc.routes.is_poc_generation_active() returns
  True, reject /v1/chat/completions and /v1/completions with 503 to
  prevent GPU contention / NCCL deadlocks while PoC is running.
  ImportError-guarded so a build without the poc package still works.
* chat_completion/protocol.py: add logprobs_mode, enforced_tokens
  (EnforcedTokens) and enforced_str fields; pass logprobs_mode
  through to SamplingParams.
* completion/protocol.py: add logprobs_mode field + pass-through.
* chat_completion/serving.py: after building SamplingParams, resolve
  enforced_str / enforced_tokens via self.renderer.tokenizer, append
  EOS if missing, write sampling_params.enforced_token_ids. When the
  request did not set logprobs_mode explicitly, auto-detect it from
  the origin top_token_ids via EnforcedTokens.detect_logprobs_mode().
Prevents crashes when enforced tokens (gonka PoC v2 validation replay)
conflict with an active grammar FSM.

* backend_xgrammar.py XgrammarGrammar: add _grammar_failed flag. On
  rejection in accept_tokens, log a warning, set the flag, and return
  True so the request continues without grammar enforcement.
  rollback() and fill_bitmask() early-return when the flag is set;
  reset() clears it.
* structured_output/__init__.py: the spec-decode bitmask fill path
  previously asserted that grammar.accept_tokens succeeded; now logs
  a warning and disables bitmask for the rest of that request's spec
  tokens instead of crashing.
* engine/arg_utils.py: bump default OPENAI_API_SERVER
  max_num_batched_tokens to 32768 on both branches (H100/MI300x and
  the smaller-GPU fallback). Matches the value the gonka PoC deploy
  was passing explicitly via --max-num-batched-tokens and avoids
  throughput regressions when the flag is omitted.
* config/vllm.py: simplify the custom_ops default branch to always
  append 'all' when neither 'all' nor 'none' is present. The inductor
  special-case that forced 'none' under CompilationMode != NONE was
  producing surprising behavior on the PoC path; 'all' is what the
  PoC setup already relied on.

Force-FlashInfer backend hardcoding from the 0.15.1 branch was
deliberately dropped — callers pass --attention-backend FLASHINFER_MLA
via the deploy command.
Registers Qwen3MoeForCausalLM in MODELS_CONFIG_MAP so the engine sets
the custom_ops list that the gonka PoC v2 setup relies on:
+quant_fp8, +rms_norm, +silu_and_mul, +fused_moe, +rotary_embedding,
+apply_rotary_emb, and 'none' as the default tail.

The config only takes effect when compilation_config.custom_ops is
empty on startup, so existing overrides passed on the command line
still win.
The gonka PoC v2 validator receives top-k logprobs from the origin as
JSON and then calls int(token) on each 'token' field via
EnforcedToken.encode() in vllm/validation.py — the comment there
('Tokens from gonka API are already numeric strings (token IDs)')
documents this contract. If the origin returns decoded strings the
validator silently falls back to tokenizer.encode() and can pick the
wrong token id for non-ASCII or multi-id tokens, producing validation
mismatches.

Replacing _get_decoded_token with return str(token_id) matches what
the 0.15.1 gonka fork does and keeps the contract stable.

This breaks the normal OpenAI API logprobs UX (human-readable tokens
are no longer returned). That is acceptable because this image is
dedicated to gonka PoC validation workloads, not to general-purpose
OpenAI-API inference. In 0.19 the method was renamed from
_get_token_id_str to _get_decoded_token; the behavior change is the
same.
Overlay-only image build: pulls the official vllm/vllm-openai:v0.19.0
base (which already ships compiled .so extensions) and replays the
gonka PoC v2 Python tree on top of site-packages/vllm/ via
find -name '*.py' | tar | tar -x.

Advantages over a from-source build:
* No csrc/ compile — build completes in seconds, not ~30-60 min.
* Overlay tracks the branch automatically; no Dockerfile COPY list
  to keep in sync with the patch set (the 0.15.1 poc-overlay
  Dockerfile was already out of sync with 12 of 19 modified files).

Bakes in VLLM_ALLOW_INSECURE_SERIALIZATION=1 plus the FlashInfer
NVFP4/FP8 MoE env vars needed for Kimi-K2.5-NVFP4 on Blackwell.
Both FP4/FP8 flags are no-ops on non-NVFP4 models and non-Blackwell
GPUs so they are safe as defaults.

Dockerfile.poc-overlay and Dockerfile.poc-wheel from the 0.15.1 fork
are intentionally not ported — the quick find|tar overlay replaces
both.
Copies tests/gonka/ from tg/scratchpad_for_mode unchanged — the tests
exercise the new public/semi-public surfaces (PoC routes, priority
gating, enforced tokens, per-request logprobs_mode, grammar graceful
degradation) that the preceding commits just wired up against 0.19.

The live_* tests target a running vllm server and are used for the
RTX PRO 6000 regression smoke + B200 NVFP4 benchmarks called out in
the port plan; the non-live tests are unit-style and can run locally
once vllm and its deps are installed.
Ports bf45627 from upstream tg/scratchpad_for_mode unchanged. Adds
an opt-in PoC flag poc_stronger_rng (default False) that swaps the
per-nonce input generator from generate_inputs (one 32-bit seed from
SHA256) to the new generate_inputs_concat_murmur, which splits the
256-bit SHA256 into 8 x 32-bit sub-seeds, draws one segment per
sub-seed via the existing murmur3 pipeline, and concatenates them.

The flag threads through the request path:
routes.py -> generate_queue.py -> engine_patch.py ->
manager.py -> poc_model_runner.py -> gpu_random.py.

Backward-compatible: default False means existing requests keep using
the single-seed generator.
…AI API

Ports upstream commits 517d056 + dd1ddce from tg/scratchpad_for_mode.

Changes the CLI default for --gpu-memory-utilization from 0.9 (the
CacheConfig default) to 0.925 when the engine is started in
OPENAI_API_SERVER usage context. Other contexts keep the 0.9 default.
Explicit --gpu-memory-utilization 0.x on the command line still wins.

Implementation matches upstream: EngineArgs.gpu_memory_utilization
type becomes float | None = None, the CLI parser overrides the
default to None, and create_engine_config substitutes 0.925 or the
original CacheConfig default based on usage_context.
…hed tokens default parameters baked into vllm

`_create_v1_attn_metadata` was building `CommonAttentionMetadata` without
`seq_lens_cpu_upper_bound`. MLA backends (CUTLASS_MLA, FLASHINFER_MLA)
read this field in `metadata_builder.build(...)` and `assert is not None`
— hard crash on the first PoC step:

  File "vllm/model_executor/layers/attention/mla_attention.py", line 1843
    assert seq_lens_cpu is not None
  AssertionError

Symptom on real hardware: nodes running mlnode-b200-kimi-k2-6 (TP=4,
EP=4, CUTLASS_MLA) report /v1/health = 200 but every worker crashes on
the first nonce. Reported by Паша on 2026-05-19.

The kwarg was present in the older 0.2.12-vllm0.20.0 builds; almost
certainly dropped during the v0.20.0 → 0.20.0-pocv2 port. Restoring as a
one-line addition that mirrors the `_seq_lens_cpu=seq_lens_cpu`
assignment immediately above it. Non-MLA backends ignore the field, so
this is universally safe across all PoC v2 deployments.
Historically this image was built and pushed by hand from a developer
machine. That made rebuilds opaque (no provenance, no SBOM, no public
signature) and unrepeatable (whoever owns the laptop owns the release).
This workflow makes Stage 1 a real CI artifact:

  - Trigger:  push to mb/feat/port-pocv2-vllm-* OR workflow_dispatch
  - Build:    Dockerfile.quick overlay (fast — no CUDA compile)
  - Publish:  ghcr.io/kaitakuai/vllm with BOTH a mutable
              `<vllm-version>-pocv2` tag AND an immutable
              `<vllm-version>-pocv2-<sha9>` tag (matches the existing
              naming on 0.20.0-pocv2-0be8726de).
  - Sign:     cosign keyless via OIDC, attached to the published digest
  - Attest:   SLSA L3 provenance (mode=max) + SPDX SBOM via buildx
  - Cache:    registry buildcache for fast incremental rebuilds

The mlnode-foundry consumer pins by digest (tools/stage2.lock.cue), so
the mutable tag is human convenience only — the build chain's integrity
model rests on the digest, not the tag.

Triggered immediately on merge for any push under vllm/**, Dockerfile.quick,
or this workflow itself. Manual workflow_dispatch supports overriding
vllm_version and base_image (for testing alternate upstream bases without
renaming the branch).
