92-165: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 TrivialTest coverage summary.
- Test functions added:
TestNvBug6625710.test_hybrid_attention_and_ssmandTestNvBug6625710.test_pure_ssm. Both delegate to the shared helperTestNvBug6625710._run. No test functions were modified or removed.- Test-list registration: not confirmed. No file under
tests/integration/test_lists/is part of this cohort. See the separate verification comment.- Coverage verdict: needs follow-up.
The scenario coverage itself is strong.
_runreproduces the reported failure path: request A commits a prefix and suspends while its tail block is still a leaf, churn requests force eviction of the unheld SSM snapshot, then A resumes and commits. Thepure_ssmvariant adds an explicit precondition probe at Line 146 that fails with an actionable message if the churn stops evicting the snapshot, so the test cannot pass vacuously. Thehybridvariant documents why no equivalent probe exists.Two gaps remain for follow-up:
- Neither test asserts the post-fix tree state directly. Both rely on the commit at Line 162 not crashing. An assertion that A's prefix is still reusable after the resume, or that
_reattachOrphanTreeBlocksrestored the chain, would detect a silent regression where the chain is rebuilt incorrectly instead of not at all.- The covering-sibling reuse path added to
getExistingBlockand the page-adoption path inattachOrGetExistingBlockare not directly exercised here. The concurrent re-commit case, where another request installs an equivalent block during the orphan window, has no test.Do you want me to draft the additional assertions and a concurrent re-commit test case?
As per path instructions: "Always produce a test coverage summary, even if no issues are found."

[Codex] I reviewed the C++ orphan-block reattachment path and the new regression coverage. The core fix looks sound. I have two non-blocking test-scope suggestions:
-
The new TestNvBug6625710 class is backend-agnostic, while the PR description says both cases still fail with TLLM_KV_CACHE_MANAGER_V2_BACKEND=python. Please either fix the Python path here or gate this class with the existing kv_test.requires_cpp_backend decorator and link the follow-up issue; otherwise an explicit Python-backend parity run gains deterministic failures.
-
The eviction precondition is checked only for pure SSM. The hybrid case can verify it too: pruneMatch() truncates the final reusable prefix when the SSM snapshot is missing even if attention pages remain. Please assert probe._get_num_tokens_before_hybrid_pruning() == len(prompt) together with probe.num_committed_tokens < len(prompt). Without that guard, the hybrid test can pass vacuously if quota or churn behavior later stops evicting the snapshot.
CI currently shows zero failed tests; the red/unstable status comes from an aborted stage and approval-gated skipped stages, not a reported test failure.

Thanks — both points were valid; fixed in fb2bc33. 1. Backend gating. Confirmed 2. Hybrid precondition — you were right and I had it backwards. My code comment claimed hybrid had no equivalent probe. That was wrong: num_committed_tokens < len(prompt) # SSM truncation fired -> snapshot gone
_get_num_tokens_before_hybrid_pruning() == len(prompt) # attention pages survivedso a shortfall can't be explained by the attention pages having been evicted too. Both tests still pass, which incidentally confirms the hybrid case was already evicting the snapshot — it just had nothing asserting it, exactly the vacuity risk you flagged. On the Python parity: tracked as follow-up rather than fixed here, since it is a separate port of the same two changes into Agreed on the CI read — the red status is an aborted stage plus approval-gated skips, not a test failure. |
…der a live request
An SSM snapshot is installed into the radix tree and immediately
scheduleForEviction()-ed, so the eviction policy is its only owner -- no KvCache
ever holds or locks it. The block it lives on is still referenced by the
producing request through SeqBlock::treeBlock.
Block::clearStaleBlocksAfterPageUnlink() prunes empty tail nodes. Evicting that
unheld snapshot therefore detached a block a live request was still pointing at,
and its next _commitBlock() dereferenced the now-null parent link and died in
Block::tokensPerBlock(). The block is vulnerable only while it is still a leaf --
the request's own next commit gives it a child and closes the window -- which is
why this surfaced as a ~1.7% flake.
Requiring every life-cycle slot to be empty before pruning (already on main)
covers hybrid attention+SSM models, where the attention page keeps a slot
non-null. It does nothing for a pure-SSM model: with no attention life cycle the
condition is trivially true and the block is detached exactly as before.
KvCache::_reattachOrphanTreeBlocks() closes that gap. On commit, if the block we
are about to use as `prev` was detached, walk back to the deepest surviving
ancestor and re-attach the blocks we still hold. detachNext() only clears `prev`
and the parent's map entry, so ordinal, tokens and surviving pages are all
intact -- nothing has to be rebuilt. The evicted page stays absent, which is
correct: pruneMatch() truncates reuse before a block that lacks it.
Insertion is split so both paths share one implementation:
getExistingBlock() -- pure query: the block already in the tree that
supersedes this one, or nullptr.
attachBlock() -- pure mutation: link under `prev` and absorb a covered
shorter sibling. Debug-asserts the query is empty.
addOrGetExistingBlock() (builds a block) and attachOrGetExistingBlock() (takes
one) are thin wrappers over the pair, so the query now runs before construction
and a block that would be discarded is never built.
UselessBlockError is removed. A partial block covered by a longer sibling now
returns that sibling instead of throwing; the two call sites that caught it did
nothing but unwrap e.block, which is what the return value already expresses.
The type never crossed the KVCM2 API boundary, so this is internal only.
Tests: tests/unittest/kv_cache_manager_v2_tests/test_nvbug_6625710.py covers
both configurations -- hybrid for the all-life-cycles condition, pure-SSM for the
re-attach. pure_ssm segfaults without the fix and passes with it; it also asserts
its own precondition, so retuning the quota or churn count cannot make it pass
vacuously.
The Python backend keeps its own copy of this logic and still needs both fixes.

…hybrid precondition Two review follow-ups on the regression tests. Gate the class on the C++ backend. The Python backend keeps its own copy of the prune logic and is not fixed yet, so an explicit TLLM_KV_CACHE_MANAGER_V2_BACKEND=python run turned these into deterministic failures rather than skips. Guard the hybrid precondition. pruneMatch() truncates a reuse match at the last block carrying an SSM snapshot, so a probe that can no longer reuse the whole prompt proves the snapshot is gone -- that already guarded the pure-SSM variant. For hybrid the attention pages survive independently, so also assert the attention-only prefix (the length before hybrid pruning) still spans the prompt; without it a shortfall could just mean the attention pages were evicted too. An earlier comment claimed hybrid had no equivalent probe, which was wrong: _get_num_tokens_before_hybrid_pruning() is exposed on both backends.

Description
An SSM snapshot is installed into the radix tree and immediately
scheduleForEviction()-ed, sothe eviction policy is its only owner — no
KvCacheever holds or locks it. The block itlives on is still referenced by the producing request through
SeqBlock::treeBlock.Block::clearStaleBlocksAfterPageUnlink()prunes empty tail nodes. Evicting that unheld snapshottherefore detached a block a live request was still pointing at, and its next
_commitBlock()dereferenced the now-null parent link and died in
Block::tokensPerBlock():The block is vulnerable only while it is still a leaf — the request's own next commit gives it
a child and closes the window — which is why this surfaced as a ~1.7% flake rather than a hard
failure.
Requiring every life-cycle slot to be empty before pruning (already on
main) covers hybridattention+SSM models such as Qwen3.5-35B-A3B, where the attention page keeps a slot non-null. It
does nothing for a pure-SSM model: with no attention life cycle the condition is trivially
true and the block is detached exactly as before.
KvCache::_reattachOrphanTreeBlocks()closes that gap. On commit, if the block we are about touse as
prevwas detached, it walks back to the deepest surviving ancestor and re-attaches theblocks we still hold.
detachNext()only clearsprevand the parent's map entry, so the block'sordinal, tokens and surviving pages are all intact — nothing has to be rebuilt. The evicted page
stays absent, which is correct:
pruneMatch()truncates reuse before a block that lacks it.Insertion split

Test Coverage
tests/unittest/kv_cache_manager_v2_tests/test_nvbug_6625710.pycovers both configurations —hybridfor the all-life-cycles condition,pure_ssmfor the re-attach.Verified on a clean build, same machine, fix stashed vs. applied:
test_pure_ssmcommit()test_hybrid_attention_and_ssmNote the "without" baseline already contains the all-life-cycles prune condition, so this
demonstrates that condition alone does not cover pure-SSM.
test_pure_ssmalso asserts its own precondition (that the snapshot really was evicted), sore-tuning
gpu_quotaorCHURN_REQUESTScannot make it pass vacuously.Full KVCM2 suite green on the C++ backend.
Known gaps
tests fail there. Tracked separately.
make_test_block(nanobind test helper) now rejects a pre-existing block instead of writinginto it; its callers are the event-manager tests, which were not runnable in my environment.
