kv_block_ids_per_seq unrotated so the block table matches…#18564Conversation
…kv_lens in the MTP draft loop The one-model MTP / Eagle3 draft loop sets attn_metadata.num_contexts = 0 on its first draft step so every row of a mixed context+generation batch is treated as a generation row. That setter runs on_update(), which makes num_generations the whole batch, and kv_lens_cuda is then updated in place in batch order. _compute_flash_mla_metadata slices kv_lens_cuda from num_contexts -- now 0 -- so it reads the whole batch in that same batch order. _prepare_flash_mla_generation_layout, however, staged the block table rotated so generation rows preceded context rows. The two views therefore disagreed and FlashMLA paired each row's kv_len with another row's block pointers, corrupting the tokens the drafter proposes. Corrupted drafts are rejected by the target model rather than emitted, so output quality is unaffected (GSM8K keeps passing) while acceptance length is depressed -- which is exactly the signature this bug reports. Stage kv_block_ids_per_seq unrotated so the block table matches kv_lens_cuda. The rotation ran whenever num_contexts > 0, i.e. on any mixed draft step, so it is not specific to chunked prefill: it also fires on the enable_chunked_prefill=False variants this bug reports, just on a smaller fraction of iterations. Measured on the reported id (mtp_nextn=2-attention_dp=True-cuda_graph=False-overlap_scheduler=False-torch_compile=False-enable_chunked_prefill=False-v2_kv_cache=False): acceptance_length 2.456 / 2.457 / 2.462 before the fix (min_al 2.4583, a coin flip) and 2.587 / 2.583 after, landing on the registered ref_al of 2.587695. The attention_dp=False sibling id measures 2.588. GSM8K is unchanged-to-better (63.87 -> 63.95 / 64.56). No baseline, threshold or reference value is modified: ref_al/min_al in references/acceptance_length.yaml are left untouched and the assert now passes because the drafter proposes correct tokens again.

WalkthroughChangesFlashMLA batch-order staging
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change aligns FlashMLA block-table rows with their KV lengths, correcting speculative-decoding token selection. The PR is mergeable with owner awareness that the distinction between the original context count and attn_metadata.num_contexts should be documented to avoid future regressions.

Clarify which num_contexts value is zero.
The caller sets attn_metadata.num_contexts = 0, but passes the original context count in the num_contexts argument. The method uses that original argument at Line 1223 to decide whether to copy. Name the metadata field explicitly to prevent future changes from skipping required mixed-batch copies.
