Native disaggregated KV transfers need to use each pool view's head geometry when one cache manager contains layers with different KV-head counts. Using one rank-wide count can select incorrect head slices or sender ranks.
Serialize optional per-view KV-head counts while retaining the legacy rank-wide fallback.
Keep target- and draft-owned layers in separate transfer views, including when they share a physical pool.
Use matched-view head counts for HND/NHD slicing, duplication factors, and sender election.
Reject incompatible view pairings or head geometry and disable the equal-split bounce path when per-view duplication makes it unsafe.
This PR is based on main, which includes the merged unified KV-cache foundation #20178. DFlash and DSpark cache-sharing integration remains in their separate PRs.
Test Coverage
Focused coverage in test_peer.py, test_extractor.py, and test_bounce.py checks per-view byte offsets, sender election, metadata compatibility, serialization, owner partitioning, and bounce safety. The existing l0_cpu.yml selection of unittest/disaggregated includes the CPU-marked tests.
Validation:
All applicable repository pre-commit checks passed.
68 tests passed in an isolated CPU source-loader harness using the real page, extractor, and peer modules. GPU/service imports were stubbed, and the manager partition and receiver bounce methods were loaded unchanged from source.
Standard pytest could not collect tests on the local machine because torch is unavailable. Full installed TensorRT/CUDA and integration validation remains for CI.

Dev Engineer Review
The supplied change summary describes per-view KV-head metadata flowing from pool-view construction into attention mapping, transfer compatibility checks, and sender routing. It also describes ownership-based view partitioning and bounce rejection when duplicate-head factors make equal-split fan-in unsafe.
The latest repository check shows no working-tree changes. The implementation details below therefore rely on the supplied change summary, not a checked patch. Test execution results are unavailable.
QA Engineer Review
The modified tests cover per-view transfer geometry, sender ownership, compatibility errors, receiver cleanup, legacy metadata fallback, view partitioning, mixed-head rejection, and fan-in bounce safety. The supplied shell result did not establish test-list membership: the inspected A10/H100 .txt paths do not exist, and no matching test entries were reported.
Coverage verdict: needs follow-up. The described unit tests cover key behaviors, but available evidence does not establish end-to-end transfer coverage or test execution.

…indings
The ported NVIDIA#20178/NVIDIA#20486/NVIDIA#20709 Python assumes main's KV cache manager
bindings. Two pieces are not on agentx:
- Per-layer AttentionReusePolicy (main NVIDIA#19727 C++). The stack only ever uses
REQUIRED, which is what agentx does for every layer, so the reuse_policy
field, its AttentionLayerConfig argument and its place in the scratch and
pool-group keys are dropped. The one test that needs PRIVATE is skipped.
- BufferConfig.coalescing_group (the stack's own C++, which the agentx image
does not carry). Group 0 is what the prebuilt bindings do implicitly, so the
argument is passed only for nonzero (NVFP4) groups, which fail loudly unless
the bindings are rebuilt from this branch's cpp/.

Include the rank-wide peer duplication factor in the fan-in safety check.
For a receiver-side overlap of (duplicate_head_factor=1, peer_duplicate_head_factor=2), the sender-side overlap reverses the factors. AttentionPolicy.should_send can then suppress some sender ranks, while the receiver still allocates one equal-share slot for every expected rank. The equal-split bounce can therefore use incorrect writer sizes.
This gap is pre-existing in the merge base, but the current safety check still needs the guard and regression coverage.
Suggested fix
- if overlap.duplicate_head_factor != 1 or any(+ if (+ overlap.duplicate_head_factor != 1+ or overlap.peer_duplicate_head_factor != 1+ or any(
factor != 1 for pair in view_factors for factor in pair

* [None][fix] Bound DFlash's shared context by the allocation's extent
DFlash took the number of valid block-table entries as the pages a request
holds. On a unified cache with per-layer page tables (e.g. an FP8 target
with a BF16 drafter), a sliding-window draft layer's evicted pages stay
BAD_PAGE_INDEX in front of its live tail, so the count stopped at about one
window (66 blocks for window 2048, page 32) whatever the context length. The
decode-time allocation check then trapped once a context passed ~2.1K
tokens, and prefill skipped the drafter's context store for later chunks and
for prefix hits past the window.
Use the extent of the allocation instead, the last valid entry + 1. Reads
below the window are never issued and writes land in the live tail; for a
full-attention drafter, and on the cpp backend, the extent equals the count.

* [None][fix] Re-seed DFlash generation slots in CUDA-graph warmup
CUDA-graph warmup builds every batch from dummy requests whose ids repeat
across batches (0..bs-1), so a reused id keeps its drafter slot and the
previous batch's context length, which the replay after each capture
advances for good. A later batch can give the same id far fewer pages, and
on a unified KV cache the drafter's allocation check then trapped at server
start: during the advanced-sampling capture pass the filler rows reached
31..79 positions against a 24-position allocation.
Only warmup runs a CUDA-graph batch eagerly, so there re-seed each
generation row's slot from this batch's positions, as prepare() already
seeds a new request.

* [None][feat] MiniMax-M3.1 DSpark: keep the drafter's KV in the target's manager under disagg
On GB300 a disaggregated generation worker gets the target's prompt KV but
not the DSpark drafter's, which lives in a separate pool: the drafter
starts from an empty window at block 0 and acceptance collapses on long
prompts. Hosting the draft layers in the target's KVCacheManagerV2 lets
the transceiver move them with the target's pages.
- MiniMaxM3KVCacheManagerV2 hosts explicit draft layer specs: index-K
buffers follow the spec-built ones, dense target layers stay FP8,
size-only coalescing keeps the target pools, draft layers use the base
view.
- KvCacheCreator unifies a standalone DSpark drafter with such a manager
under disaggregated serving when the drafter reads the target's page
size. Agg keeps the separate pool paired with block reuse, and a model
that ships that pool's window (F0a) keeps it in disagg.
TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=0 opts out.
- An NVFP4 target transfers with a BF16 draft held in pools of its own.
- A windowed draft lifecycle gets the hot-tier bytes of every admissible
sequence's window plus one context chunk, instead of the bytes-per-token
split that handed it a quarter of the KV cache.
Signed-off-by: Zheyu Fu <zheyuf@nvidia.com>
* [None][feat] Reuse a unified DSpark drafter's KV only where its window is complete
With the drafter's layers in the target's KV cache manager, the draft
lifecycle's REQUIRED policy let the drafter's window constrain every
prefix match: a request branching off a shared prefix found no
committed window there and re-prefilled its whole prompt.
- A windowed drafter's layer specs are OPTIONAL. The target alone sets
the match, and a new cache's first resume selects the drafter's
layers where their window is complete (page-aligned matches only).
- Where the window is missing, prepare_context caps the claim so the
prefill writes everything the drafter reads (from L + 2 - W on): at
L + 1 - W, or one window before a branch point within W of the prompt
end, whose window the request then publishes. A partial match first
retries at its last full page.
- The commit gate for unstored drafter context, its unwritten-prefix
marks and branch-point publication cover a manager that hosts the
drafter's layers, not only a paired draft pool.
A disagg generation request needs no cap: the KV transfer requests an
unselected OPTIONAL group in full.

* [None][perf] MiniMax-M3.1 DSpark: copy only the unified drafter's block offsets per step
A hybrid NVFP4 MiniMax-M3 cache is pool-less: no target layer reads its
attention-op block offsets. With explicit draft layers it kept every
layer's pool, so each step converted the whole per-layer table (layers x
sequence slots x max_seq_len / tokens_per_block) on the device: about
3 ms per decode step at max_seq_len 1M on TP2.
Keep one attention-op pool, the first draft layer's, which is the only
one the unified drafter reads, and fill it from the draft lifecycle's
rows with the copy a separate draft pool uses.

* [None][fix] Allocate the whole block of a drafter that shares the target's KV cache
A unified DFlash/DSpark drafter appends its block after the request's
context, through the request's own pages. The manager sized every request
with num_extra_kv_tokens = K-1 beyond its history, but the DSpark
shift_label block is K wide (DFlash K+1). When the allocation ended on a
page boundary, at the prompt end or after a step that accepts all K+1
tokens, the block's last slot had no page: the drafter then truncated the
advertised context and its scratch overwrote the last context position in
the draft layers, silently.
When DRAFT-owner layers live in the manager, size each request beyond its
history by max(num_extra_kv_tokens, drafter block width) at every
allocation site and in the generation headroom. The creator passes the
checkpoint-resolved width (shift_label). Adapted from NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM

NVIDIA#20664 (76c4cef); num_extra_kv_tokens keeps its position-side meaning.
* [None][fix] Fail at startup when TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=1 cannot be honored
An explicit TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=1 on a disaggregated worker whose
target and drafter cannot share one KV cache manager silently kept the
separate draft pool, whose KV is not transferred. Raise at KV cache
creation instead, as NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM NVIDIA#20664's
_check_shared_draft_kv_request does.
disaggregated_mpi_worker now writes "auto" rather than "1" when both
sections pass its coarse checks, so its automatic choice can still fall
back where a worker's finer checks refuse; the creator shares under "1" and
"auto" alike. The unset default is unchanged.

* [None][fix] Let disaggregated_mpi_worker share a DSpark drafter's KV
The launcher wrote TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=0 for any drafter other than DFlash, and for any page
size other than 16, 32 or 64, so a MiniMax-M3.1 DSpark deployment started through it (128-token pages)
kept the separate draft pool, whose KV is not transferred.
Accept a standalone DSpark drafter with attention_backend unset, AUTO or TRTLLM, as NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM
NVIDIA#20664 does, and leave its page size to each worker's KvCacheCreator: the launcher cannot know whether
the drafter reads the target's page. It writes "auto"; if the two sides still disagree, the peers'
draft-layer check fails loudly. An explicit TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=0 is now kept.

* [None][fix] Keep attention-DP dummy generation rows on DFlash's dummy slot
A generation row with the attention-DP dummy id must never inherit a real slot, because the C++ offset
copy maps placeholders to page 0: a slot that a context warmup stored under that id would let the
dummy row write its drafter K/V past its own pages, onto another request's page. As in
NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM NVIDIA#20664, such rows now always take the dummy slot.

* [None][perf] DFlash: size a unified MiniMax-M3.1 drafter's context stores on the host
DFlash bounds each context store by the row's allocation, which it reads
back from the device unless the drafter's block-table rows are known to
be written in full. That was only recognized for a separate draft pool,
so with the unified drafter every context chunk waited for the target's
forward before the store was issued.
Let the KV cache manager say whether it rewrites copied rows in full,
and check the target manager's own table for a unified drafter. The
MiniMax-M3 manager's drafter-only pool is copied in full.

* [None][feat] KVCacheManagerV2: reuse an OPTIONAL group at a partial endpoint
An OPTIONAL lifecycle group was checked only at a page-aligned endpoint,
so a partial prefix match always left it incomplete. A unified DSpark
drafter then lost its window's partial page and the caller cut its claim
back to the last full page, recomputing up to a page per request.
Check an OPTIONAL group at any endpoint with the REQUIRED coverage rule:
the last page needs only the matched prefix. The first resume copies a
selected group's partial page into a private page, as for REQUIRED, and
counts it as a partial reuse. Partial snapshots now publish OPTIONAL
pages as well, so a continuation of a prompt that ended mid-page finds
them. A match whose partial page is missing still falls back to the
last full page.

* [None][fix] Bound DFlash's shared context by the allocation's extent
DFlash took the number of valid block-table entries as the pages a request
holds. On a unified cache with per-layer page tables (e.g. an FP8 target
with a BF16 drafter), a sliding-window draft layer's evicted pages stay
BAD_PAGE_INDEX in front of its live tail, so the count stopped at about one
window (66 blocks for window 2048, page 32) whatever the context length. The
decode-time allocation check then trapped once a context passed ~2.1K
tokens, and prefill skipped the drafter's context store for later chunks and
for prefix hits past the window.
Use the extent of the allocation instead, the last valid entry + 1. Reads
below the window are never issued and writes land in the live tail; for a
full-attention drafter, and on the cpp backend, the extent equals the count.

* [None][fix] Re-seed DFlash generation slots in CUDA-graph warmup
CUDA-graph warmup builds every batch from dummy requests whose ids repeat
across batches (0..bs-1), so a reused id keeps its drafter slot and the
previous batch's context length, which the replay after each capture
advances for good. A later batch can give the same id far fewer pages, and
on a unified KV cache the drafter's allocation check then trapped at server
start: during the advanced-sampling capture pass the filler rows reached
31..79 positions against a 24-position allocation.
Only warmup runs a CUDA-graph batch eagerly, so there re-seed each
generation row's slot from this batch's positions, as prepare() already
seeds a new request.

* [None][feat] MiniMax-M3.1 DSpark: keep the drafter's KV in the target's manager under disagg
On GB300 a disaggregated generation worker gets the target's prompt KV but
not the DSpark drafter's, which lives in a separate pool: the drafter
starts from an empty window at block 0 and acceptance collapses on long
prompts. Hosting the draft layers in the target's KVCacheManagerV2 lets
the transceiver move them with the target's pages.
- MiniMaxM3KVCacheManagerV2 hosts explicit draft layer specs: index-K
buffers follow the spec-built ones, dense target layers stay FP8,
size-only coalescing keeps the target pools, draft layers use the base
view.
- KvCacheCreator unifies a standalone DSpark drafter with such a manager
under disaggregated serving when the drafter reads the target's page
size. Agg keeps the separate pool paired with block reuse, and a model
that ships that pool's window (F0a) keeps it in disagg.
TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=0 opts out.
- An NVFP4 target transfers with a BF16 draft held in pools of its own.
- A windowed draft lifecycle gets the hot-tier bytes of every admissible
sequence's window plus one context chunk, instead of the bytes-per-token
split that handed it a quarter of the KV cache.

* [None][feat] Reuse a unified DSpark drafter's KV only where its window is complete
With the drafter's layers in the target's KV cache manager, the draft
lifecycle's REQUIRED policy let the drafter's window constrain every
prefix match: a request branching off a shared prefix found no
committed window there and re-prefilled its whole prompt.
- A windowed drafter's layer specs are OPTIONAL. The target alone sets
the match, and a new cache's first resume selects the drafter's
layers where their window is complete (page-aligned matches only).
- Where the window is missing, prepare_context caps the claim so the
prefill writes everything the drafter reads (from L + 2 - W on): at
L + 1 - W, or one window before a branch point within W of the prompt
end, whose window the request then publishes. A partial match first
retries at its last full page.
- The commit gate for unstored drafter context, its unwritten-prefix
marks and branch-point publication cover a manager that hosts the
drafter's layers, not only a paired draft pool.
A disagg generation request needs no cap: the KV transfer requests an
unselected OPTIONAL group in full.

* [None][perf] MiniMax-M3.1 DSpark: copy only the unified drafter's block offsets per step
A hybrid NVFP4 MiniMax-M3 cache is pool-less: no target layer reads its
attention-op block offsets. With explicit draft layers it kept every
layer's pool, so each step converted the whole per-layer table (layers x
sequence slots x max_seq_len / tokens_per_block) on the device: about
3 ms per decode step at max_seq_len 1M on TP2.
Keep one attention-op pool, the first draft layer's, which is the only
one the unified drafter reads, and fill it from the draft lifecycle's
rows with the copy a separate draft pool uses.

* [None][fix] Allocate the whole block of a drafter that shares the target's KV cache
A unified DFlash/DSpark drafter appends its block after the request's
context, through the request's own pages. The manager sized every request
with num_extra_kv_tokens = K-1 beyond its history, but the DSpark
shift_label block is K wide (DFlash K+1). When the allocation ended on a
page boundary, at the prompt end or after a step that accepts all K+1
tokens, the block's last slot had no page: the drafter then truncated the
advertised context and its scratch overwrote the last context position in
the draft layers, silently.
When DRAFT-owner layers live in the manager, size each request beyond its
history by max(num_extra_kv_tokens, drafter block width) at every
allocation site and in the generation headroom. The creator passes the
checkpoint-resolved width (shift_label). Adapted from NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM

* [None][fix] Fail at startup when TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=1 cannot be honored
An explicit TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=1 on a disaggregated worker whose
target and drafter cannot share one KV cache manager silently kept the
separate draft pool, whose KV is not transferred. Raise at KV cache
creation instead, as NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM NVIDIA#20664's
_check_shared_draft_kv_request does.
disaggregated_mpi_worker now writes "auto" rather than "1" when both
sections pass its coarse checks, so its automatic choice can still fall
back where a worker's finer checks refuse; the creator shares under "1" and
"auto" alike. The unset default is unchanged.

* [None][fix] Let disaggregated_mpi_worker share a DSpark drafter's KV
The launcher wrote TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=0 for any drafter other than DFlash, and for any page
size other than 16, 32 or 64, so a MiniMax-M3.1 DSpark deployment started through it (128-token pages)
kept the separate draft pool, whose KV is not transferred.
Accept a standalone DSpark drafter with attention_backend unset, AUTO or TRTLLM, as NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM
NVIDIA#20664 does, and leave its page size to each worker's KvCacheCreator: the launcher cannot know whether
the drafter reads the target's page. It writes "auto"; if the two sides still disagree, the peers'
draft-layer check fails loudly. An explicit TRTLLM_DISAGG_SHARED_DRAFT_KV=0 is now kept.

* [None][fix] Keep attention-DP dummy generation rows on DFlash's dummy slot
A generation row with the attention-DP dummy id must never inherit a real slot, because the C++ offset
copy maps placeholders to page 0: a slot that a context warmup stored under that id would let the
dummy row write its drafter K/V past its own pages, onto another request's page. As in
NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM NVIDIA#20664, such rows now always take the dummy slot.

* [None][perf] DFlash: size a unified MiniMax-M3.1 drafter's context stores on the host
DFlash bounds each context store by the row's allocation, which it reads
back from the device unless the drafter's block-table rows are known to
be written in full. That was only recognized for a separate draft pool,
so with the unified drafter every context chunk waited for the target's
forward before the store was issued.
Let the KV cache manager say whether it rewrites copied rows in full,
and check the target manager's own table for a unified drafter. The
MiniMax-M3 manager's drafter-only pool is copied in full.

* [None][feat] KVCacheManagerV2: reuse an OPTIONAL group at a partial endpoint
An OPTIONAL lifecycle group was checked only at a page-aligned endpoint,
so a partial prefix match always left it incomplete. A unified DSpark
drafter then lost its window's partial page and the caller cut its claim
back to the last full page, recomputing up to a page per request.
Check an OPTIONAL group at any endpoint with the REQUIRED coverage rule:
the last page needs only the matched prefix. The first resume copies a
selected group's partial page into a private page, as for REQUIRED, and
counts it as a partial reuse. Partial snapshots now publish OPTIONAL
pages as well, so a continuation of a prompt that ended mid-page finds
them. A match whose partial page is missing still falls back to the
last full page.

Add a dispatch-level test for the new PP gate in Receiver.dispatch_task.
The peer_infos.pp_size <= 1 term at transfer.py:2973-2976 disables multi-writer bounce for PP senders. No test reaches this gate. The _fanin_bounce_safe tests call the helper directly, so removing the new term would not fail any test. The one dispatch test that asserts _bounce.reserve.assert_not_called() (test_peer.py:653) rejects the peer before the gate runs, so that assertion holds regardless of the gate.
Add a case to tests/unittest/disaggregated/test_peer.py. Reuse _make_receiver_for_view_validation (test_peer.py:545-573), which builds a Receiver with a mocked bounce.

The supplied change summary describes per-view KV-head metadata flowing from pool-view construction into attention mapping, transfer compatibility checks, and sender routing. It also describes ownership-based view partitioning and bounce rejection when duplicate-head factors make equal-split fan-in unsafe.
The latest repository check shows no working-tree changes. The implementation details below therefore rely on the supplied change summary, not a checked patch. Test execution results are unavailable.
QA Engineer Review
The modified tests cover per-view transfer geometry, sender ownership, compatibility errors, receiver cleanup, legacy metadata fallback, view partitioning, mixed-head rejection, and fan-in bounce safety. The supplied shell result did not establish test-list membership: the inspected A10/H100
.txtpaths do not exist, and no matching test entries were reported.Coverage verdict: needs follow-up. The described unit tests cover key behaviors, but available evidence does not establish end-to-end transfer coverage or test execution.
