We notice that sometimes user build vllm-ascend with incorrect torch
version. In this case, the build is passed, but when running the code,
the error `AttributeError: '_OpNamespace' '_C_ascend' object has no
attribute 'weak_ref_tensor'` is raised. Let's force the torch version to
2.7.1 and check the torch version when build from source to fix the
issue.

Added instructions for resolving 'invalid tar header' error on Kylin OS with an ARM64 architecture on Atlas300I hardware during docker
pull, including steps for offline loading of docker images.
---
### What this PR does / why we need it?
The primary motivation for this PR is to address a critical `docker
pull` failure that occurs on specific, yet important, enterprise
environments. Specifically, when operating on **Kylin OS (麒麟操作系统) with
an ARM64 architecture on Atlas300I hardware**, users frequently
encounter an `archive/tar: invalid tar header` error, which completely
blocks the setup process. This issue has been consistently reproduced,
with multiple retries failing with the same error, confirming that it is
a persistent environmental problem rather than a transient network
issue.

/>
This guide provides a robust, step-by-step workaround using an
offline-loading method (`docker save` on a host machine and `docker
load` on the target machine). This solution is crucial for enabling
users on this platform to use vLLM.
This contribution does not directly fix an existing issue number, but it
proactively solves a significant environmental and usability problem for
a growing user base.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No.It does not alter any code, APIs, interfaces, or existing behavior of
the vLLM project.
### How was this patch tested?
The instructions and troubleshooting steps in this guide were validated
through a real-world, end-to-end test case on the my hardware and OS.
The testing process was as follows:
1. **Problem Reproduction**: An attempt was made to directly `docker
pull` the `vllm-ascend:v0.10.0rc1-310p` image on a target machine
running Kylin OS (ARM64). The `invalid tar header` failure was
successfully and consistently reproduced, confirming the existence of
the problem.
2. **Solution Implementation**: The workaround detailed in the guide was
executed:
* On a separate host machine (Ubuntu x86_64), the image was successfully
pulled using the `--platform linux/arm64` flag.
* The image was then saved to a `.tar` archive using `docker save`.
* The `.tar` archive was transferred to the target Kylin OS machine.
* The image was successfully loaded from the archive using `docker load
-i ...`.
3. **End-to-End Validation**: After loading the image, the vLLM
container was launched on the target machine following the instructions
in the guide. Both online inference (via `curl` to the API server) and
offline inference (via the Python script) were executed successfully,
confirming that the entire workflow described in the document is
accurate and effective.
Since this is a documentation-only change based on a validated workflow,
no new unit or integration tests were added to the codebase.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR introduces a new model loader called Netloader, which leverages
high-bandwidth P2P direct transfer between NPU cards to achieve weight
loading. Netloader is implemented as a plugin through the newly added
'register_model_loader' function in vLLM 0.10. It facilitates the
process of weight loading by sending weights from a pre-loaded model
(server) to an empty model of a newly started instance (client). The
server operates concurrently with normal inference tasks through
sub-threads and the 'stateless_init_torch_distributed_process_group' in
vLLM. The client initiates a transfer request after verifying that the
model and partitioning method are the same as the server's, and uses
HCCL's collective communication (send/recv) to load the weights in the
order they are stored in the model.
Application Scenarios:
1. Significantly Reduces Inference Instance Startup Time By reusing the
weights of already loaded instances and performing high-speed transfers
directly between computing cards, this method reduces model loading
latency compared to traditional remote/local pull methods.
2. Reduces Network and Storage Pressure Avoids the need to repeatedly
download weight files from remote repositories, reducing the impact on
centralized storage and network traffic, thereby enhancing overall
system stability and service quality.
3. Improves Resource Utilization and Reduces Costs Accelerating the
loading process reduces reliance on redundant computing pools, allowing
computing resources to be elastically scaled and reclaimed as needed.
4. Enhances Business Continuity and High Availability In fault recovery
scenarios, new instances can quickly take over existing services,
avoiding prolonged business interruptions and improving the system's
high availability and user experience.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Netloader utilizes the existing --load-format=netloader and
--model-loader-extra-config to be activated. The
model-loader-extra-config needs to be input as a JSON string (as it is
now)
Afterwards, you can check whether the outputs for the same sentence are
consistent when the temperature is set to 0.

# What this PR does / why we need it?
When processing a mix of large and small requests, the TTFT of responses
is significantly reduc\ed. Please refer to
https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/10235, which achieves the same
effect by simply limiting the number of prompt fills for long requests.
This solution can be applied to both AscendScheduler (V0) and vLLM
Scheduler (V1). Tests show that TTFT can be significantly improved when
handling such mixed requests. However, This capability is currently
missing when Ascend Scheduler is enabled.
This benchmark used the Qwen3-8B model, with a context length of 128K,
running on a single card.
Regarding dataset selection, the sharegpt_clean dataset is used, with
its content concatenated and cropped. Small requests with token=50 and
medium requests with token=10240 were constructed (there were also large
requests with token=102400, but these were ignored because when using
the Prefill First scheduling strategy, max_num_batched_tokens will not
be set to such a large value). When loading vLLM, set
max_num_batched_tokens=22000. This length can accommodate two
medium-sized requests and some short requests, reflecting an extreme
scenario where the budget is almost entirely occupied by longer
requests.
Next, we mix 990 small requests and 100 medium requests into one type of
load scenario (hereinafter referred to as 10%), and similarly generate
load scenarios with 5% medium requests and 1% load scenarios.
Performance tests were conducted separately for enabling vLLMScheduler,
AscendScheduler, and AscendScheduler (long prompt concurrency set to 1).
