Copied from them:
Notice that `hasattr(self.model, "flush_pending_metadata")` cost 6ms per
decode step when profiling Qwen3 Omni.
The original `CUDAGraphWrapper.__getattr__` raises:
```python
raise AttributeError(f"... cudagraph wrapper: {self.runnable}")
```
When hasattr() is called for a non-existent attribute, Python internally
calls __getattr__ which constructs this AttributeError. The
{self.runnable} triggers `__repr__()` on the underlying model (e.g.,
`Qwen3OmniMoeForConditionalGeneration`), which recursivelytraverses the
entire nn.Module tree to generate an 18,000+ character string. This
takes ~6-7ms per call.
Since `hasattr(self.model, "flush_pending_metadata") ` is called every
decode step in the Talker forward path, this adds ~6ms overhead per
step, severely impacting audio inter-chunk latency (ICL).
```Python
hasattr(self.model, "flush_pending_metadata")
→ getattr(self.model, "flush_pending_metadata")
→ not found in CUDAGraphWrapper.__dict__
→ not found in the CUDAGraphWrapper class hierarchy
→ triggers CUDAGraphWrapper.__getattr__("flush_pending_metadata")
→ hasattr(self.runnable, "flush_pending_metadata") # runnable also doesn't have it
→ executes raise AttributeError(f"... {self.runnable}")
→ Python needs to construct the exception object
→ the f-string triggers self.runnable.__repr__()
→ Qwen3OmniMoeForConditionalGeneration.__repr__()
→ recursively traverses the entire nn.Module tree
→ generates a 18,000+ character string
→ takes ~6 ms
→ AttributeError object is created
→ hasattr catches the AttributeError and returns False
→ the 18,000-character string is immediately discarded (no one ever sees it)
```

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR optimizes the Qwen3.5 and Qwen3Next GDN prefill path on Ascend
by reducing host/device synchronization overhead.
The current implementation of the `chunk_gated_delta_rule` path for
variable-length sequences prepares chunk metadata during the forward
pass. This approach triggers frequent CPU intervention and host/device
round-trips. When running prefill-heavy workloads with asynchronous
scheduling enabled, these synchronizations result in execution "bubbles"
and prefill stalling (stuttering). **Note that this does not cause
asynchronous scheduling to fail; rather, it prevents the system from
reaching its theoretical throughput due to these unnecessary stalls.**
To resolve this, the patch moves metadata preparation out of the hot
path:
- **Prebuilt Metadata:** All non-speculative varlen chunk metadata for
GDN is now prebuilt on the CPU.
- **Asynchronous Transfer:** Staging buffers are kept in pinned memory
and transferred to the NPU asynchronously.
- **Integration:** The prebuilt bundle is attached to GDN attention
metadata via `patch_gdn_attn.py` and passed into Triton wrappers.
- **Backward Compatibility:** Triton wrappers fall back to the legacy
preparation path if no prebuilt metadata is provided.

### What this PR does / why we need it
This PR fixes a startup regression for Ascend hybrid attention + mamba
models after upgrading to vLLM `0.18.0`.
However, after the vLLM `0.18.0` upgrade, worker initialization still
calls the generic platform hook:
- `current_platform.update_block_size_for_backend(vllm_config)`
### How this PR fixes it
This PR keeps the fix strictly inside `vllm-ascend`.
It adds an Ascend override for
`NPUPlatform.update_block_size_for_backend()`:
- for hybrid models, do not run the generic upstream block-size fallback
- preserve the block size that was already computed by the hybrid
model-specific config logic
- for non-hybrid models, keep the original upstream behavior unchanged

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR enables separate attention backend configuration for target and
draft models in speculative decoding, decoupling the previously bound
attention backend settings between the two models.
It solves the compatibility issue where some draft models do not support
the attention backend used by the target model, and allows users to
select the optimal attention backend for each model individually to
maximize inference performance. The change is fully backward compatible.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
Currently, chunked prefill is forcibly enabled. DeepSeek V3.1 W8A8C8
supports only the PD separation scenario. C8 refers to quantizing the KV
cache to int8, which aims to reduce the GPU memory usage of the KV cache
and improve the inference throughput.
Constraints:
1. Only the PD separation mode can be used and
MooncakeLayerwiseConnector can be used to run the model.
2. Currently, only the activation value supports dynamic quantization,
and the KV cache supports static quantization. C8 quantization with MTP
is not supported. You can use ModelSlim for quantization. The
quantization procedure is as follows:
pip install transformers==4.48.2
git clone https://gitcode.com/Ascend/msmodelslim.git
cd msmodelslim
bash install.sh
cd example/DeepSeek/
python3 quant_deepseek_w8a8.py --model_path <path/weight> --save_path

### What this PR does / why we need it?
**Refactor: Replace npu_ring_mla with FIA in MLA prefill**
This PR refactors the MLA (Multi-Layer Attention) prefill implementation
by replacing `npu_ring_mla` with `npu_fused_infer_attention_score` (FIA)
operator, unifying the attention backend with the standard attention
implementation.
**Key changes:**
1. **Core prefill refactoring (`mla_v1.py`)**
- Replace `npu_ring_mla` with `npu_fused_infer_attention_score` in
`_forward_prefill` and `_compute_prefill_context`
- Use TND layout with `softmax_lse_flag=True` for prefill attention
- Use `npu_attention_update` to merge multiple chunk outputs with LSE
(Log-Sum-Exp)
- Change `attn_mask` from `get_final_mla_mask()` to
`get_splitfuse_attn_mask()` for FIA compatibility
2. **Data type handling**
- Add automatic float16 → bfloat16 conversion (FIA with TND layout only
supports bfloat16)
- Convert output back to original dtype after FIA computation
3. **Metadata optimization**
- Pre-calculate `actual_seq_lengths_q` in `AscendMLAPrefillMetadata`
- Pre-calculate `chunk_actual_seq_lengths_kv_list` in
`ChunkedContextMetadata`
- Move `torch.cumsum` operations from forward pass to metadata building
phase
4. **CP compatibility (`mla_cp.py`)**
- Add `_ring_mla_mask_builder` to get `npu_ring_mla`-compatible masks
for Context Parallel scenarios
- Add `chunk_actual_seq_lengths_kv_list` field to
`CPChunkedContextMetadata`
**Why we need it:**
- **Backend unification**: Aligns MLA prefill with standard attention
implementation (`attention_v1.py`)
- **Better chunked context support**: FIA + `npu_attention_update`
provides native LSE-based output merging
- **Future compatibility**: Prepares for eventual `npu_ring_mla` removal
across the codebase
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
**No.** This is a pure refactoring with no functional changes - same
behavior, unified backend.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
Reapply the auto-detect quantization format feature (originally in
#6645, reverted in #6873) and extend it to support remote model
identifiers (e.g., `org/model-name`).
Changes:
- Reapply auto-detection of quantization method from model files
(`quant_model_description.json` for ModelSlim, `config.json` for
compressed-tensors)
- Add `get_model_file()` utility to handle file retrieval from both
local paths and remote repos (HuggingFace Hub / ModelScope)
- Update `detect_quantization_method()` to accept remote repo IDs with
optional `revision` parameter
- Update `maybe_update_config()` to work with remote model identifiers
- Add platform-level `auto_detect_quantization` support
- Add unit tests and e2e tests for both local and remote model ID
scenarios
Closes#6836
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Yes. When `--quantization` is not explicitly specified, vllm-ascend will
now automatically detect the quantization format from the model files
for both local directories and remote model IDs.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR introduces global CPU slicing for Ascend NPUs to ensure
non-overlapping CPU partitions, addresses IRQ binding logical errors on
A3, and enhances the logic for determining total NPUs in CPU allocation.
These changes are necessary to optimize CPU resource management and
improve system stability.
- **Global CPU Slicing**: Introduced a global CPU slicing mechanism for
Ascend NPUs to ensure non-overlapping CPU partitions across multiple
processes or data parallel groups, preventing resource contention.
- **Improved IRQ Binding for A3 Devices**: Refined the IRQ binding logic
specifically for Ascend A3 devices, correctly mapping logical NPU IDs to
physical card and chip IDs for accurate npu-smi queries and preventing
multi-process overwrite of IRQ settings.
- **Enhanced NPU Count Determination**: Improved the logic for
determining the total number of logical NPUs, prioritizing NPU mapping
information to ensure more accurate CPU allocation.
- **Minimum CPU Requirement**: Established a minimum requirement of 5
CPUs per NPU for binding, reserving specific cores for IRQ, main, ACL,
and release operations to ensure stable operation.

- The changes refactor the logic for converting weights to the
FRACTAL_NZ format. Previously, this was handled in a 310P-specific
linear layer implementation (`AscendUnquantizedLinearMethod310`). This
implementation has been removed, and the logic is now centralized in the
`maybe_trans_nz` utility function. This function now checks if the
device is a 310P and applies the NZ format cast accordingly for
`float16`/`bfloat16` weights.

duplication and ensures correct weight handling for unquantized models
on 310P.

## Summary
- Add automatic quantization format detection, eliminating the need to
manually specify `--quantization` when serving quantized models.
- The detection inspects only lightweight JSON files
(`quant_model_description.json` and `config.json`) at engine
initialization time, with no `.safetensors` reads.
- User-explicit `--quantization` flags are always respected;
auto-detection only applies when the flag is omitted.
## Details
**Detection priority:**
1. `quant_model_description.json` exists → `quantization="ascend"`
(ModelSlim)
2. `config.json` contains `"quant_method": "compressed-tensors"` →
`quantization="compressed-tensors"` (LLM-Compressor)
3. Neither → default float behavior
**Technical approach:**
Hooked into `NPUPlatform.check_and_update_config()` to run detection
after `VllmConfig.__post_init__`. Since `quant_config` is already `None`
at that point, we explicitly recreate it via
`VllmConfig._get_quantization_config()` to trigger the full quantization
initialization pipeline.
## Files Changed

[Refactor] Modify the binding logic, added memory migration and
interrupt core binding functions.
### What this PR does / why we need it?
Controls the use of memory on a closer NUMA node to achieve a lower
memory access latency, while binding interrupts to different CPU cores
to prevent them form interrupting the inference process.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No

### What this PR does / why we need it?
- Keeps enable_cpu_binding default on, but skips binding on non‑ARM CPUs
inside bind_cpus, with a clear log.
- Uses a table-driven binding policy: A3 uses NUMA‑balanced binding;
other device types use NUMA‑affinity binding.
- Updates docs to reflect the exact behavior and adds/updates unit tests
for the new logic.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
- Yes. CPU binding is now enabled by default via additional_config, and
documented in the user guide.
- CPU binding behavior differs by device type (A3 vs. others).
### How was this patch tested?
Added/updated unit tests:
test_cpu_binding.py
1. test_binding_mode_table covers A2 vs A3 binding mode mapping.
2. test_build_cpu_pools_fallback_to_numa_balanced covers fallback when
affinity info is missing.
3. TestBindingSwitch.test_is_arm_cpu covers ARM/x86/unknown arch
detection.
4. test_bind_cpus_skip_non_arm covers non‑ARM skip path in bind_cpus.
test_worker_v1.py
1. Updated mocks for enable_cpu_binding default True to align with new
config default.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR extends the Ascend 310P attention backend to support the
`PrefillCacheHit` state. Previously, only `PrefillNoCache`,
`DecodeOnly`, and `ChunkedPrefill` were supported.
This PR handles this state by routing it to the existing
`forward_chunked_prefill_310` implementation, which is suitable for this
scenario.
The changes also include refactoring the main `forward_impl` dispatch
method for better clarity and updating unit tests to cover the new state
and ensure correctness.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No
### How was this patch tested?
Accuracy test when chunked prefill is disabled.

### What this PR does / why we need it?
#6043 deleted the forward_before phase of the dynamic eplb. Currently,
the end-to-end precision is monitored in the UT, and the log is not
printed in the key place. As a result, the eplb does not take effect and
is not intercepted.
1. The forward_before function is added back.
2. Delete unnecessary logs and add key logs.
3. Warm-up of algorithm 3 is added.

#### The conversation is normal.
Okay, the user is asking, \"What is deep learning?\" I need to explain
this in a clear and concise way. Let me start by recalling what I know
about deep learning. It's a subset of machine learning, right? So first,
I should mention that it's part of machine learning, which itself is a
branch of AI. Then, the key aspect of deep learning is the use of neural
networks with multiple layers. These are called deep neural
networks.\n\nWait, I should define neural networks first. Maybe start
with the basics. A neural network is inspired by the human brain, with
layers of nodes (neurons) that process data. But deep learning
specifically refers to networks with many layers—hence \"deep.\" So the
term \"deep\" comes from the number of layers. \n\nI should explain how
deep learning works. It involves training these networks on large
datasets, allowing them to automatically learn features from the data.
Unlike traditional machine learning, where you might have to manually
extract features, deep learning models can do this automatically. That's
a key point. For example, in image recognition, a deep learning model
can learn to detect edges, shapes, and then more complex patterns
without human intervention.\n\nApplications are important too. The user
might want to know where deep learning is used. Common examples include
image and speech recognition, natural language processing, autonomous
vehicles, and recommendation systems. Maybe mention specific
technologies like self-driving cars using computer vision or virtual
assistants like Siri or Alexa

### What this PR does / why we need it?
This PR integrates the `npu_add_rms_norm` fused kernel for RMSNorm
operations with residual connections on 310P devices. This change
optimizes the computation by replacing a two-step process (manual
residual addition followed by RMSNorm) with a single, more efficient
fused operation. This is needed to improve the performance of models
utilizing RMSNorm with residual connections on the 310P architecture.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No, this PR introduces an internal optimization and does not change any
user-facing APIs or behaviors.
### How was this patch tested?
This patch was tested with updated unit tests
(`test_RMSNorm_forward_310p`) that mock the `npu_add_rms_norm` operation
to verify the correctness of the fused kernel integration.
