Explanation
The title follows the required template: it includes an NVBugs ID, the [fix] type, and a short summary. It names the main change, which adds optional authentication to native RankInfo exchange. The title matches the changeset, which adds an HMAC challenge-response to REQUEST_INSTANCE_INFO and propagates the existing internal_request_auth_key through launch and transceiver paths.

before writing its configuration contents; preserve the existing key-generation

- Line 102: In generate_mpi_worker_config, normalize the copied CTX and GEN
mappings in mpi_worker_config_base.yaml so both internal_request_auth_key values
match the resolved top-level key before writing the MPI worker configuration;
updating only the separate files in save_worker_config does not normalize these
mappings.

- Line 109: Update the EXPORTS handling in the launch script so
RANK_INFO_AUTH_KEY is not stored in a shell variable or included in either srun
command’s arguments; pass it to both steps through a restricted channel instead,
while preserving the other exported values.

- Around line 17-19: Update the config-generation block that writes
internal_request_auth_key before cat-ing the work_path config so a leading YAML
document marker remains the first marker and the key is inserted within that
same document. Preserve the existing behavior for configs without a document
marker.

Approving — the comments below are optional touch-ups, not blockers.
I re-checked each concern from the last round against the current code. All five are fixed:
- Per-dispatch collective: removed. Admission votes now ride on the status allgather in
check_gen_transfer_status, whichpoll_gen_transfersenters on every rank every tick. A rank whose fence isn't ready yet just leaves the rid out of its vote. Timeout-driven cancels are TP-synchronized in the coordinator, so a pending rid can't be dropped on only one rank. The sync path's single allgather runs in admitted-request order, which is rank-uniform. - Asymmetric test:
test_rank_info_admission_waits_for_asymmetric_receive_fencescovers skipped dispatch, duplicate dispatch, and a rejection on either rank. - Challenge cache DoS: the 10 s TTL is in, and the README documents the DoS trade-off.
- Blocking receive: both reads now share one deadline, and the socket is cleaned up on timeout.
- gRPC reversal: stated in both the README and the description.
Non-blocking items:
- Validation gap on a release branch. The description says GPU serving and multi-node runs are still pending. Before merge, please run at least one keyed TP>1 generation worker end to end, plus one mixed-key configuration to confirm it fails cleanly. The admission path has only been exercised with mocks and threads.
- Bug scope. The handshake authenticates only the generation worker to the context worker, and the
ctx_info_endpointcallback path is excluded. The unkeyed default is also unchanged. So this mitigates part of nvbugs/6504651 rather than closing it. Please keep the bug open (or file a follow-up) for the remaining route and for making a key the default. See the inline comment on[transfer.py:3100](https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM/pull/20796/files#diff-337dabe32d190384907e8c1330d67ed73ff63f41fbf0c1a347ff9f2ad18d4590R3100)for a cheap way to close the callback route in keyed deployments. - Description hygiene. The report-token fixture updates in
test_transfer_ownership_regressions.pyare unrelated to authentication. A one-line mention in the description would save a future reader from wondering why they're here.

Description
The native disaggregated
REQUEST_INSTANCE_INFOendpoint returns RankInfo, including peer transfer metadata and memory capabilities. This change adds optional HMAC-SHA256 authentication before returning that information wheninternal_request_auth_keyis configured.Without a configured key, workers log a startup warning and retain the existing unauthenticated exchange. With a key, the proof binds a server-generated key to the RankInfo endpoint. Each proof attempt consumes its challenge, including malformed follow-ups. Challenges expire after 10 seconds; the bounded cache preserves live challenges and rejects new requests when full. Authentication failures fail only the affected transfer. For keyed multi-rank asynchronous receives, admission results travel through the existing symmetric status collective before receive buffers are published; per-request dispatch does not introduce a collective.
Both RankInfo replies share one deadline using the configured KV transfer timeout (60 seconds for direct callers without one). Unauthenticated clients can still exhaust the 4096-entry challenge cache with fresh identities and cause legitimate requests to fail as busy; bounded storage and expiration do not prevent sustained denial of service.
Key provisioning
Users configure only the existing
internal_request_auth_keyfield with the same value on communicating peers:CacheTransceiverConfig._rank_info_auth_keyis private internal storage for that same key, not a second user-configured field. It is excluded from configuration dumps and preserved through worker serialization and model-default application.This PR does not generate keys or add launcher scripts, CLI options, or public LLM API parameters. An absent key does not prevent native transceiver initialization.
Scope and compatibility
Scope is limited to optional authentication of
REQUEST_INSTANCE_INFO; the attacker-controlledctx_info_endpointcallback path is excluded. Without a configured key, the reported unauthenticated RankInfo disclosure remains exploitable.gRPC serving now accepts and forwards
internal_request_auth_key; previously, configuring this field in gRPC mode caused startup to fail.When authentication is enabled, both communicating workers must support the authenticated protocol and use matching keys. A configured receiver never downgrades to an unauthenticated exchange. When neither peer configures a key, the legacy RankInfo exchange remains available, including interoperability with older workers.
Validation
type-check,clang-format, andruff-legacyskipped.Full-package, GPU serving, and multi-node MPI/SLURM validation remain pending. The gRPC CLI and model-default regression tests have not yet run in the full TensorRT-LLM environment.
