WalkthroughDFlash now separates checkpoint capacity from runtime block width, validates capacity, and uses runtime sizing during draft processing. Vanilla attention now packs grouped-query heads only for eligible layers and restores the original layout. Integration tests validate acceptance length. ChangesDFlash runtime and attention behavior
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up: the new GQA packing path still lacks a local divisibility check before reshaping, so unsupported query/KV head configurations could fail at runtime or produce invalid layouts, and the modified test reference still needs the required NVIDIA header.

- Around line 1641-1647: Update the sliding-window handling around
_sliding_layers_causal so non-causal TRTLLM-Gen context never receives a finite
window_left; route such configurations to a supported backend or reject them,
while preserving the existing causal window bounds and legacy no-window
behavior.
In `@tensorrt_llm/_torch/speculative/dflash.py`:
- Around line 312-323: Update the context-buffer capacity calculation to use
_compute_block_size rather than _resolved_block_size, while retaining
_resolved_block_size for checkpoint-width validation and error reporting. Locate
the capacity assignment in the initialization flow near the _compute_block_size
setup.

Compute mean acceptance length from iteration perf stats after the GSM8K eval and assert it against a registered baseline, matching the pattern used by the other spec-dec accuracy tests. Baseline populated on H100 NVL with the FP8 target and the 6-layer sliding DFlash head. Signed-off-by: Anurag Mukkara <134339030+amukkara@users.noreply.github.com>

NVIDIA#17935 added a block-width check assuming the plain DFlash layout, where slot 0 holds the anchor and K draft tokens need K+1 slots. DSpark's shift_label reads slots 0..K-1, so K slots suffice; the extra slot rejected both published block-7 drafters at max_draft_len=7. Width now comes from _draft_block_width, next to the _draft_slot_ids hook it has to agree with. Signed-off-by: Zhenhuan Chen <zhenhuanc@nvidia.com>
