Fixes #23789. Move CUDA graph padding before attention metadata construction to ensure tensor sizes match execution environment. Fixes crashes in FlashMLA and other attention backends caused by metadata/execution size mismatches.

  • Pass padded token count to _prepare_inputs()
  • Update slot_mapping and num_actual_tokens to use padded sizes
  • Eliminates need for backend-specific workarounds

Code Review

This pull request addresses a critical crash issue related to CUDA graph padding by ensuring attention metadata tensor sizes match the execution environment. The changes are well-targeted and logical. A new num_input_tokens parameter is introduced to _prepare_inputs to carry the padded token count. The call to _prepare_inputs is correctly moved to after padding is calculated in execute_model. The slot_mapping and num_actual_tokens are now correctly sized using this padded count. The implementation appears robust and correctly handles the backward compatibility case where no padding is applied. Overall, this is a solid fix.

Thanks for taking this on! I think this might actually be a bit trickier then I initially thought; couple of comments

  1. if we are dispatching to full cudagraphs; then we should pad num_reqs to match what the cudagraph was captured for since this information is used by the attention backends too; this may require changes to the CudagraphDispatcher
  2. if we are dispatching to a piecewise CUDA-graph we don't need to pad num_reqs and its probably better not to (to avoid wasted work in attention)

Thanks for the review @LucasWilkinson. I will work on the suggested changes. Do you have any idea on why am I getting CI failures on this consistently?

The CI can be flaky; I would just keep merging/rebasing-off main at a pretty regularly; tests are usually fixed on main in pretty short order
