+description: Diagnose and optimize vLLM Omni diffusion workloads, especially Wan/Qwen/Flux-style image and video generation. Use when Codex is asked to analyze profiling traces, choose parallel strategies, inspect torch profiler trace.json or trace.json.gz timelines, estimate optimization ROI, investigate GPU idle/free bubbles, compare USP/CFG/HSDP/VAE parallelism, or design operator/host/quantization optimizations for vLLM Omni.

+
+# vLLM Omni Performance Optimization
+
+Use this skill to run a disciplined optimization loop for vLLM Omni diffusion workloads. Keep two ideas separate: real performance baselines are collected with low overhead, while torch profiler traces are diagnostic artifacts and may distort latency.
+
+## First Questions
+
+Before proposing changes, ask for the optimization scene if it is not already known:
+
+- GPU model, card count, topology, and whether NVLink is present.
+- Model and pipeline, for example Wan2.2 I2V A14B.
+- User workload: resolution, frames, steps, batch/concurrency, CFG scales, prompt/image inputs.
+- Three runnable commands for each model/workload, or scripts that generate them:
+  - **Server startup command**: exact `vllm serve` command, environment variables, model path, port, parallelism flags, profiler flags, and precision/compile settings.
+  - **User request command**: exact single-request client command (for example curl or Python client) with fixed prompt/media/seed/size/steps. Use this to validate correctness and collect per-request stage timings.
+  - **User benchmark command**: exact repeatable benchmark command or script with warmup count, measured iteration count, concurrency/batch policy, output directory, and summary format.
+- Current enabled strategies: USP/SP, CFG parallel, HSDP/FSDP, VAE patch parallel, torch.compile, profiler options.
+- Optimization target: latency, throughput, memory, cost, or quality-preserving speed.
+- Precision/quality tolerance: bf16/fp8/quantization/sparsity/approximate attention allowed or not.
+- Quality validation method: exact-output comparison when feasible, or metrics
+  such as SSIM, PSNR, LPIPS, cosine similarity, MAE, MSE, temporal flicker
+  checks, baseline self-run variance, and reviewable output artifacts.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. **Freeze the measurement protocol and commands.**
+   - Before analyzing parallel strategies or traces, establish the three commands for the target model/workload: server startup, single user request, and user benchmark.
+   - Prefer checked-in scripts or one-off shell scripts over free-form commands in chat. The scripts should make workload variables explicit, including model path, port/base URL, prompt/media inputs, resolution, frames, steps, seed, warmup, measured iterations, concurrency, and output path.
+   - Measurement reports must preserve the concrete process, not just the final numbers. For each tested configuration, write down the server startup command, the user request command, the user benchmark command or polling loop, the final server response metrics, and the client-side timing/HTTP result.
+   - Present all duration and latency values in **milliseconds (ms)** in tables and summaries. If an API returns seconds, convert to ms before reporting. Keep raw units only inside quoted raw logs or source snippets.
+   - Keep profiler modes separate in the command set:
+     - Baseline/benchmark commands should avoid torch profiler and stack collection.
+     - Diagnostic commands may enable torch profiler after a baseline identifies a bottleneck.
+   - If any of the three commands is missing, ask for it or create a proposed script before proceeding.
+   - Make clear which command is authoritative for correctness validation and which command is authoritative for performance numbers.
+
+2. **Collect a real baseline.**
+   - Disable PyTorch profiler and stack collection.
+   - Disable or fix torch.compile state so A/B is fair.
+   - Avoid `--enforce-eager` for production-speed baselines unless eager is the target.
+   - Prefer `--log-stats` and `--enable-diffusion-pipeline-profiler` for low-overhead stage timing. PR 3069 has the relevant metrics/log-stats changes; if local code does not include them, fetch or cherry-pick the minimal metrics changes rather than merging unrelated PR drift.
+   - Run warmup requests and exclude first-request lazy init.
+
+3. **Model the parallel strategy before testing.**
+   - Estimate compute and communication for self-attention, cross-attention, FFN, CFG, VAE encode/decode, and HSDP.
+   - Select a small candidate matrix rather than exhaustively testing everything.
+   - Typical 2-card candidates: `USP=2`, `CFG=2`, `USP=1/HSDP on-off`, VAE parallel on-off if memory allows.
+   - Typical 4-card candidates: `USP=4`, `CFG=2 x USP=2`, `USP=2 x HSDP`, VAE parallel on-off.
+   - Typical 8-card candidates for official CFG-enabled video diffusion models:
+     - Primary candidate: `CFG=2 x USP=4` with VAE patch parallel across all 8 ranks.
+     - Compare against: `CFG=1 x USP=8` to test whether larger sequence parallel groups beat CFG branch parallelism.
+     - Isolate VAE parallelism: keep the DiT strategy fixed and compare VAE patch parallel on/off or different VAE patch sizes.
+     - If long-video `diffuse` remains dominant and Ulysses all-to-all is suspected, test a hybrid sequence strategy such as `CFG=2 x USP=2 x Ring=2`.
+     - Test HSDP off only if the model fits without it; treat HSDP primarily as a memory strategy until A/B proves otherwise.
+   - Prefer USP/SP for long video token sequences; prefer CFG parallel when CFG doubles transformer forwards and sequence length is modest.
+   - Convert workload shape to latent/patch token counts before choosing candidates. For video models, record frames, latent frames, latent HxW, patch size, approximate token count, and which stages should scale with the token count.
+
+4. **Search for the best parallel configuration.**
+   - Start with a small matrix that answers one question per comparison:
+     - `CFG parallel vs larger USP`: compare `CFG=2 x USP=world/2` against `CFG=1 x USP=world` for CFG-enabled workloads.
+     - `VAE patch parallel value`: compare the best DiT strategy with VAE patch parallel enabled and disabled.
+     - `HSDP cost`: compare HSDP on/off only when both configurations fit memory.
+     - `Ulysses vs Ring`: test a Ring/Ulysses hybrid only after long-sequence `diffuse` is confirmed dominant.
+   - For each configuration, create or record a stable config id, for example `A_cfg2_usp4_vaepp8_hsdp_tiling`.
+   - For each config id, capture:
+     - exact server command and environment variables,
+     - observed distributed setup from logs, such as SP groups, CFG groups, HSDP shard/replicate sizes, VAE patch size,
+     - exact request command for every scenario,
+     - final server response metrics and client-side elapsed time,
+     - output artifact paths and any failed/empty responses.
+   - Use one warmup request per scenario, then at least three measured repeats for the shortlisted config. For exploratory matrix pruning, one measured request is acceptable only if the margin is large; label it as one-shot.
+   - Compare configurations by stage, not only end-to-end latency. A configuration can improve `diffuse` while hurting `vae.decode`; record both effects.
+   - Select the best config only after checking the target metric, dominant stages, memory headroom, and output correctness.
+
+5. **Run targeted A/B tests.**
+   - Change one variable per test.
+   - Keep model, input, seed, request parameters, GPU placement, and warmup policy fixed.
+   - Record latency, stage timings, memory, output quality, and logs.
+   - Report comparison tables in ms. Include at least end-to-end client time, server `inference_time`, server stage generation time if available, `vae.encode`, `diffuse`, `vae.decode`, and peak memory.
+
+6. **Enforce the quality and precision gate for every optimization.**
+   - Do not mark an optimization ready until quality is checked on the same
+     workload: model, prompt/media, seed, shape, steps, scheduler, dtype,
+     backend, parallelism, and output encoding.
+   - For math-preserving changes, require exact/near-exact agreement or show
+     that differences are within baseline self-run variance.
+   - For precision, quantization, approximate attention, sparse/custom kernels,
+     or backend changes, include reviewable artifacts and metrics such as SSIM,
+     PSNR, LPIPS, cosine similarity, MAE, MSE, and temporal flicker checks.
+   - If quality tolerance is not stated, default to quality-preserving behavior.
+     Failed or inconclusive quality validation blocks a ready-to-merge claim.
+
+7. **Collect diagnostic trace only after narrowing hypotheses.**
+   - Use torch profiler for a small number of requests.
+   - Run two separate diagnostic traces instead of mixing concerns:
+     - **Operator/shape trace**: enable `torch_profiler_record_shapes=True` and keep stack collection disabled. Use this to rank CUDA kernels, NCCL collectives, attention/MLP/norm/RoPE work, and shape-specific hot operators.
+     - **Host-stack trace**: enable `torch_profiler_with_stack=True` and normally keep shape collection disabled. Use this to map CPU/Python host gaps, synchronization points, scheduler paths, and request handling overhead.
+   - Keep both trace commands and reports separate from baseline/benchmark commands. Torch profiler latency is diagnostic only and must not be used as the final latency claim.
+   - Prefer profiling only the narrowed dominant scenario, for example the highest-resolution/video-length case where `diffuse` dominates.
+   - If profiler endpoints are available, run one warmup request first, then call `/start_profile`, run one profiled request, and call `/stop_profile`. This keeps model initialization and warmup out of the diagnostic trace.
+   - Start by analyzing rank 0 only. Expand to more ranks only if rank 0 suggests imbalance, unclear GPU idle/free bubbles, high NCCL wait, server timing mismatch, CFG branch imbalance, or USP group stragglers.
+   - Diagnostic reports must be written to disk and preserve: server command, profiler config, warmup/request/polling commands, trace artifact paths, rank analyzed, analyzer output or summary, and the decision about whether additional ranks are necessary.
+   - Analyze both rank-level balance and device-level free bubbles when additional ranks are opened.
+
+8. **Analyze host, communication, and operators.**
+   - Find GPU idle/free intervals and map each large gap to the enclosing CPU/Python code.
+   - Separate real GPU idle from profiler overhead such as CUPTI `Command Buffer Full`.
+   - Compare NCCL kernel time to user annotations; annotations can overcount nested intervals.
+   - Rank operator work by total CUDA time and by repeated small-kernel launch count.
+
+9. **Produce an optimization plan.**
+   - Classify candidates as P0/P1/P2.
+   - For each candidate, state necessity, expected benefit, implementation path, validation plan, and quality risk.
+   - Include a concrete quality/precision validation gate for each candidate.
+   - Do not implement high-risk operator rewrites before proving the operator is a bottleneck for the target shapes.
+   - End the plan with a user-facing candidate selection table. The assistant
+     should not automatically choose a risky optimization just because it is
+     technically possible. Present the options clearly and let the user decide
+     which item is worth implementing based on latency target, engineering
+     budget, memory headroom, and quality tolerance.
+   - Organize the plan by optimization layer, not by a flat list of ideas:
+     - host/runtime optimization,
+     - measurement/benchmark reliability,
+     - parallelism and communication,
+     - VAE encode/decode and media pre/post processing,
+     - operator fusion and layout cleanup,
+     - attention main-path optimization,
+     - algorithmic, precision, or approximation changes.
+   - For each layer, tie every candidate back to evidence from baseline
+     metrics, diagnostic trace, source code, or output quality requirements.
+     Do not list generic optimizations without a trace or workload reason.
+
+## Priority Rules
+
+- **P0:** low risk, likely useful, or required for trustworthy measurement. Examples: real baseline, warmup, targeted parallel A/B, disabling avoidable `empty_cache`, scheduler coefficient caching.
+- **P1:** meaningful code changes with contained risk. Examples: cross-attention KV caching, VAE gather/broadcast reduction, AdaLayerNorm/RMSNorm/RoPE fusion after trace evidence.
+- **P2:** high implementation or quality risk. Examples: FA to LA replacement, custom Triton/CUDA fused kernels, FP8/quantization, sparsity/Rainfusion-style acceleration.
+
+Every implemented optimization needs A/B validation and a passing
+quality/precision gate, including math-preserving changes such as padding trim,
+layout cleanup, cache reuse, or host/runtime cleanup. Use objective metrics
+when available, keep reviewable artifacts, and compare against baseline
+self-run variance for precision, quantization, approximate kernels, or backend
+changes. If quality validation fails or is inconclusive, do not present the
+optimization as ready to merge.
+
+## Optimization Layers
+
+After baseline, parallel-search, and diagnostic traces, summarize optimization
+opportunities by layer. This is the core of the performance analysis: the goal
+is to connect evidence to a scoped implementation and a validation plan.
+
+### Host and Runtime Optimization
+
+Purpose: remove CPU/Python stalls, synchronization points, allocator overhead,
+and request-path overhead that leave GPU lanes empty.
+
+Evidence to look for:
+
+- High `idle_pct` or large `GAP` blocks in `trace_analyzer.py`.
+- Host-stack trace lines such as `torch.cuda.empty_cache`,
+  `cudaStreamSynchronize`, `cudaDeviceSynchronize`, Python locks, scheduler
+  waits, image/video preprocessing, or repeated small allocation paths.
+- Difference between client wall-clock time and server `inference_time_s`.
+
+Typical candidates:
+
+- Make avoidable `torch.cuda.empty_cache()` optional or guard it by memory
+  headroom.
+- Cache scheduler coefficients, timesteps, masks, or other tiny repeated CPU
+  computations when the request shape/steps are fixed.
+- Remove avoidable host-device synchronizations and blocking logging/stat calls.
+- Move expensive preprocessing out of the critical path or cache fixed prompt,
+  image, and transform work for benchmark scenarios.
+- Ensure benchmark scripts record client-side elapsed time, HTTP status, output
+  path, and server response metrics.
+
+Priority guidance:
+
+- Usually P0 when the change is measurement reliability or an obvious removable
+  synchronization.
+- Usually P1 when it changes scheduling, memory lifetime, or request execution
+  order.
+
+Validation:
+
+- Re-run non-profiler baseline with same workload and seed.
+- Confirm peak memory headroom if disabling cache cleanup.
+- Confirm generated output exists and quality/seed behavior is unchanged.
+
+### Parallelism and Communication Optimization
+
+Purpose: choose the right decomposition for CFG branches, sequence tokens, model
+weights, VAE tiles, and rank topology.
+
+Evidence to look for:
+
+- Baseline A/B across `CFG`, `USP/SP`, `Ring`, `HSDP/FSDP`, and VAE patch
+  parallelism.
+- Stage timing shifts: `diffuse`, `vae.encode`, `vae.decode`, and server
+  end-to-end.
+- NCCL kernel time from trace, not only `user_annotation` time.
+- Rank imbalance across SP group ranks or CFG branch ranks.
+- Memory headroom and OOM risk.
+
+Typical candidates:
+
+- `CFG=2 x USP=world/2` versus `CFG=1 x USP=world` for CFG-enabled models.
+- VAE patch parallel on/off or patch size tuning.
+- HSDP/FSDP on/off only if both configurations fit memory.
+- Ulysses versus Ulysses+Ring only after long-sequence `diffuse` is confirmed
+  dominant and all-to-all is suspected.
+- Rank mapping/topology changes if all-rank traces show stragglers or NCCL wait.
+- Buffer reuse or preallocation for FSDP/HSDP all-gather paths.
+
+Priority guidance:
+
+- P0/P1 for configuration-only changes with strong measured wins.
+- P1 for buffer reuse or rank mapping changes.
+- P2 for invasive distributed algorithm changes.
+
+Validation:
+
+- Measure by stage and memory, not only end-to-end.
+- Use one-variable A/B with identical prompt/media/seed/shape/steps.
+- When communication is suspected, compare rank0-3 in one USP group and rank0
+  versus rank4 across CFG branches for `CFG=2 x USP=4`.
+
+### VAE and Media Pipeline Optimization
+
+Purpose: reduce encode/decode, tiling, split/gather, and media conversion time.
+
+Evidence to look for:
+
+- Large `vae.encode` or `vae.decode` in low-overhead stage timings.
+- Host-stack gaps in VAE tile split, gather, merge, broadcast, or image/video
+  transforms.
+- VAE kernels or cuDNN convolution in operator trace.
+- Whether every rank needs the final decoded tensor.
+
+Typical candidates:
+
+- Keep VAE patch parallel enabled when it has clear measured benefit.
+- Reduce VAE gather/broadcast to only ranks that need the final media output.
+- Reuse tile metadata, split buffers, or gather buffers.
+- Evaluate bf16/autocast behavior for VAE only with visual quality checks.
+- Avoid redundant image conversion, resize, or tensor construction in repeated
+  benchmark runs.
+
+Priority guidance:
+
+- P0/P1 if VAE is a large share of the target workload or if a host gap is
+  obvious and low risk.
+- Lower priority when `diffuse` dominates and VAE is already patch-parallelized.
+
+Validation:
+
+- Compare `vae.encode`, `vae.decode`, server end-to-end, and peak memory.
+- Check output video integrity, artifacts, flicker, and seed stability.
+
+### Operator Fusion and Layout Cleanup
+
+Purpose: reduce high-frequency small kernels, memory bandwidth pressure, layout
+conversions, and launch overhead in transformer and VAE blocks.
+
+Evidence to look for:
+
+- Top operator tables showing many `aten::copy_`, `aten::cat`,
+  `split_with_sizes_copy`, `aten::add`, `aten::mul`, `aten::div`, norm,
+  activation, RoPE, or reshape/layout kernels.
+- `ops_rankN.xlsx` `by_shape` sheet showing repeated small shapes inside the
+  same block path.
+- Trace lanes showing many short kernels between larger GEMM/attention kernels.
+- Source code patterns with repeated elementwise chains or layout conversions.
+
+Typical fusion targets:
+
+- AdaLayerNorm / RMSNorm / LayerNorm plus scale/shift fusion.
+- RoPE fusion with Q/K layout preparation when shapes are stable.
+- Residual add, scale, gate, and elementwise chains.
+- MLP gate/up/down cleanup, such as fusing activation and multiply around
+  GEMM outputs when feasible.
+- QKV projection and reshape/split/cat path cleanup.
+- Attention pre/post layout cleanup to avoid unnecessary copies, cats, and
+  splits around sequence parallel all-to-all.
+
+Priority guidance:
+
+- P1 when implemented with existing PyTorch/Triton/local helper patterns and
+  validated against exact outputs or tolerances.
+- P2 when it requires custom CUDA/Triton kernels, changes numerics, or touches
+  attention math directly.
+
+Validation:
+
+- First prove the operator family is material for the target shape.
+- Use non-profiler A/B for latency and stage timing.
+- Use quality regression checks for generated video stability.
+- Check compile behavior and graph breaks if using `torch.compile`.
+
+### Attention Main-Path Optimization
+
+Purpose: address the dominant self-attention cost when FlashAttention or other
+attention kernels dominate CUDA time.
+
+Evidence to look for:
+
+- Operator trace where FlashAttention/SDPA kernels dominate total CUDA time.
+- Attention shape from `ops_rankN.xlsx` `by_shape`, model code, or trace
+  metadata.
+- Whether attention cost scales with latent frames, latent H/W, patch size, or
+  CFG duplication.
+- Layout/copy/all-to-all work around attention.
+
+Typical candidates:
+
+- Verify the attention backend and shape are on the intended fast kernel path.
+- Compare supported attention backends only with identical workload and quality
+  settings.
+- Reduce attention input size by safe model/config choices when allowed:
+  latent resolution, frame count, patching, boundary ratio, or windowing.
+- Remove avoidable layout conversions before/after attention.
+- Reuse condition-side KV or other static inputs if the model structure allows.
+- Consider custom kernels, sparse/window/linear attention, or approximation only
+  after quality risk is accepted.
+
+Priority guidance:
+
+- P1 for backend/config/layout changes with preserved math.
+- P2 for approximate attention, sparsity, custom kernels, or any change that can
+  alter quality/temporal consistency.
+
+Validation:
+
+- Always include output quality and seed behavior checks.
+- Compare `diffuse`, server end-to-end, peak memory, and attention kernel time
+  in diagnostic traces if needed.
+
+### Algorithmic, Precision, and Approximation Optimization
+
+Purpose: reduce mathematical work or precision cost beyond local code cleanup.
+
+Evidence to look for:
+
+- A single operator family dominates even after low-risk runtime, parallel, and
+  fusion work.
+- Memory bandwidth or compute utilization suggests precision or quantization
+  could matter.
+- The user explicitly allows quality-preserving or approximate methods.
+
+Typical candidates:
+
+- FP8/quantization for transformer or selected projections.
+- Sparsity or Rainfusion-style acceleration.
+- Reduced steps, scheduler changes, distillation, or caching across frames.
+- Approximate attention or linear attention.
+
+Priority guidance:
+
+- Usually P2 because quality, numerics, and implementation risk are high.
+
+Validation:
+
+- Requires strict A/B, visual quality review, temporal flicker checks, seed
+  stability, and possibly human evaluation.
+
+### Interpolation, Super-Resolution, and E2E Pipeline Optimization
+
+Purpose: optimize the whole user-visible video product, not only the base
+diffusion invocation. Some deployments trade base-model latency against
+post-processing, interpolation, or super-resolution stages.
+
+Evidence to look for:
+
+- E2E latency breakdown across base generation, interpolation, super-resolution,
+  encoding, storage, and response streaming.
+- Fast/slow GPU or fast/slow stage analysis across multiple cards and pipeline
+  stages.
+- User quality target: resolution, FPS, temporal smoothness, and acceptable
+  post-processing artifacts.
+
+Typical candidates:
+
+- Add or optimize a frame interpolation stage when it reduces required base
+  model frames for the same perceived FPS.
+- Add or optimize a super-resolution model when generating lower base
+  resolution plus SR is faster for the target quality.
+- Analyze E2E2 pipeline behavior: client request, service scheduling, diffusion,
+  VAE/media, post-process, file write, and response.
+- Identify fast/slow cards or stages and rebalance pipeline placement.
+
+Priority guidance:
+
+- P1 when using proven interpolation/SR components without changing diffusion
+  math.
+- P2 when quality risk is high or the pipeline adds significant operational
+  complexity.
+
+Validation:
+
+- Measure E2E wall-clock, per-stage server timings, output FPS/resolution,
+  artifacts, flicker, and user-visible quality.

+### Optimization Plan Template
+
+Use this table shape when reporting the next work items:
+
+| Priority | Layer | Candidate | Evidence | Expected benefit | Implementation path | Validation | Quality risk |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| P0 | Host/runtime | Guard `empty_cache` | Host-stack gap points to `torch.cuda.empty_cache` | Small latency reduction, less idle | Add config/env guard | Non-profiler A/B, memory check | Low |
+| P1 | Operator fusion | RMSNorm/AdaLayerNorm fusion | High-frequency norm/elementwise kernels | Lower launch/bandwidth overhead | Use existing fusion helper or targeted Triton | A/B + output check | Medium |
+| P1/P2 | Attention | Attention layout/backend investigation | FA kernel dominates CUDA time | Potentially large | Inspect shapes/backend and remove layout copies | A/B + trace + quality | Medium/high |
+
+Then present a short selection prompt using the same rows:
+
+```text
+Which candidate should we implement next?
+
+1. P0 Host/runtime: guard empty_cache
+   - Expected benefit: small but low-risk latency reduction.
+   - Risk: possible memory increase/OOM if memory headroom is insufficient.
+
+2. P1 Operator fusion: inspect by_shape and implement first norm/RoPE/layout fusion
+   - Expected benefit: medium if high-frequency small kernels are confirmed.
+   - Risk: numerical/compile/quality validation needed.
+
+3. P1/P2 Attention: FA/LA/backend/layout investigation
+   - Expected benefit: potentially large.
+   - Risk: high quality and implementation risk.
+```
+
+If the user has not chosen an item, default to explaining tradeoffs and asking
+which candidate to execute. Only proceed autonomously on low-risk P0 measurement
+or instrumentation fixes.
+
+## Analysis Helpers
+
+PyTorch profiler traces are Chrome/Perfetto-compatible JSON files, usually
+`trace_rankN.json` or `trace_rankN.json.gz`. They normally contain a top-level
+`traceEvents` list, though some exporters emit the raw event list directly.
+
+Use the checked-in analyzer from the repository root:
+
+```bash
+python3 .claude/skills/diffusion-perf-opt/scripts/trace_analyzer.py \
+  vllm_profile/.../trace_rank0.json.gz \
+  --min-gap-ms 5 \
+  --topn 20
+```
+
+For rank imbalance or communication questions, pass all relevant rank traces in
+one command. For host gaps, lower `--min-gap-ms` to `1` and use a host-stack
+trace. Read `gpu_span_s`, `busy_union_s`, `idle_union_s`, `idle_pct`, `GAP`
+blocks, `Top GPU/operator events by total duration`, and `Top NCCL-like events
+by category`. Treat `cat=user_annotation` NCCL ranges as enclosing annotations;
+prefer `cat=kernel` or `cat=gpu_user_annotation` for real device work.
+
+The analyzer summarizes timing only. It does not parse tensor shapes, attribute
+overlap to individual streams, prove quality, or provide final latency claims.
+Use `ops_rankN.xlsx` or PyTorch key averages for shape analysis, and re-test any
+optimization with non-profiler baseline commands.
+
+Read `references/optimization-playbook.md` when drafting the optimization table or comparing candidate techniques.
+
+## vLLM Omni Heuristics
+
+- Cross-attention usually should not use USP/SP when text/image condition token count is much smaller than latent video tokens. Confirm via trace; in Wan2.2 I2V, self-attention dominates cross-attention.
+- VAE bf16/autocast is often worthwhile but requires visual quality checks.
+- VAE patch parallel can help decode/encode but may add gather/merge/broadcast overhead. Check whether all ranks need the final decoded tensor.
+- HSDP/FSDP is primarily a memory strategy. If the model fits without it, run an on/off latency comparison.
+- Scheduler work can create small host/device gaps; cache tiny solve coefficients when timesteps/order are known.
+- `torch.cuda.empty_cache()` can prevent OOM but creates synchronization/idle. Make it optional if memory headroom is sufficient.
+- `Command Buffer Full` in profiler output is profiler overhead, not a model optimization target.

+# Optimization Playbook
+
+Use this reference when turning trace evidence into prioritized vLLM Omni optimizations.
+
+## Parallel Strategy
+
+Start from workload shape:
+
+- Long video tokens, high resolution, many frames: self-attention and FFN dominate. USP/SP is usually valuable.
+- CFG enabled with positive and negative prompts: transformer forward count doubles. CFG parallel may beat USP on small/moderate sequence lengths.
+- Cross-attention: skip SP/USP when condition tokens are much smaller than latent tokens; extra all-to-all can exceed compute saved.
+- HSDP/FSDP: use to fit memory first. If memory allows, compare without HSDP because all-gathers and lazy init add overhead.
+- VAE parallel: useful when encode/decode is material. Check gather/merge/broadcast and whether every rank needs final decoded output.
+
+Candidate matrices:
+
+- 2 cards: `USP=2`, `CFG=2`, HSDP on/off, VAE PP on/off.
+- 4 cards: `USP=4`, `CFG=2 x USP=2`, `USP=2 x HSDP`, VAE PP on/off.
+- 8 cards: add pipeline/stage parallel only after measuring orchestration and inter-stage transfer overhead.
+
+## Host And Free Bubble Analysis
+
+Look for device intervals where no kernel, memcpy, or memset is active.
+
+Common causes:
+
+- First request FSDP/HSDP lazy init.
+- Python preprocessing: image load, resize, `to_tensor`, tokenizer, request marshaling.
+- `torch.cuda.empty_cache()` or explicit synchronizations.
+- Scheduler small linear algebra such as tiny `torch.linalg.solve`.
+- VAE tile split/merge Python loops.
+- Profiler overhead such as CUPTI command buffer flush/full.
+
+Also inspect trace-external time:
+
+- API request parsing and multipart upload.
+- Engine/orchestrator dispatch.
+- Worker RPC and queue wait.
+- Output serialization, video write, base64, HTTP response.
+
+## Operator Optimization Candidates
+
+Evaluate necessity before implementation:
+
+- **FA to LA / LA for head:** high potential only if attention is the main CUDA hotspot and target shapes fit LA well.
+- **Cross-attention BSND/no transpose:** do only if transpose/copy around cross-attn is measurable.
+- **AdaLayerNorm fusion:** fuse norm, scale/shift, gate, residual, and dtype conversion if repeated elementwise kernels are significant.
+- **RMSNorm fusion:** useful for Q/K norms and VAE norms when small-kernel launch count is high.
+- **FP32 LayerNorm to bf16:** quality-sensitive; run visual regression.
+- **LA preprocess:** integrate only if preprocess overhead is cached or amortized.
+- **RoPE move/cache/fuse:** useful when RoPE small kernels are visible around every self-attn block.
+- **VAE RMSNorm replacement:** only after VAE internal trace shows norm as a real component of decode/encode.
+- **Scheduler fusion/cache:** cache coefficient solves and fuse CFG combine with scheduler arithmetic when possible.
+
+Before writing a custom kernel, check:
+
+- Local vLLM Omni implementations.
+- Upstream vLLM kernels and attention backends.
+- SGLang, FlashInfer, FlashAttention, and Triton examples.
+- Shape constraints and layout expectations.
+
+## Quantization And Sparsity
+
+Treat these as high-risk optimizations:
+
+- Rainfusion/sparse diffusion can be high reward but needs model-specific quality validation.
+- VAE decode quantization can reduce decode time but usually has smaller end-to-end upside than transformer attention/FFN work.
+- FP8 or approximate kernels require seed-stable visual regression, temporal flicker checks, and prompt diversity.
+
+## Output Format For Recommendations
+
+Return a table with:
+
+- Priority: P0/P1/P2.
+- Optimization.
+- Evidence from trace or code.
+- Expected benefit.
+- Risk/quality impact.
+- Implementation path.
+- Validation command or A/B test.
+
+State clearly when a recommendation is a hypothesis requiring new trace with shapes.

-# Benchmarks Overview and Architecture
+# Benchmarks
 
-This document explains the benchmark architecture across all benchmark assets in this repo. It describes what we measure, and where to find or plug in new scenarios. Per-task details remain in subfolder READMEs (e.g., `benchmarks/<model>/README.md`).
+This directory contains benchmark suites for evaluating different model families and infrastructure components in vLLM-Omni. Each subfolder targets a different benchmark family with its own scripts, configs, and metrics. See the per-subfolder READMEs for detailed usage.
 
-## Scope and goals
-- Establish repeatable latency/throughput measurements for multimodal LLM pipelines.
-- Provide both HF Transformers (offline) and vLLM-Omni (multi-stage/pipeline) baselines.
-- Make it easy to plug in new datasets and models with minimal changes to the runner scripts.
+## Benchmark families
 
-## Dataset and inputs
-- Default example: SeedTTS top-100 prompts (`benchmarks/build_dataset/top100.txt`) via `benchmarks/build_dataset/`.
-- Extensible: drop in new prompt files or modality-aligned payloads; keep the expected format for the consuming scripts (e.g., one prompt per line).
-- If you add a new dataset, document it under `benchmarks/<model>/README.md` and point scripts to your data path.
+### [TTS](tts/README.md) — Text-to-Speech
 
-## Directory layout
-- `benchmarks/build_dataset/` — dataset prep utilities (e.g., SeedTTS top100).
-- `benchmarks/<model>/vllm_omni/` — vLLM-Omni pipeline benchmarks, logs, outputs.
-- `benchmarks/accuracy/` — accuracy benchmark integrations that adapt external
-  benchmark suites to vLLM-Omni serving and evaluation flows.
-- Add new tasks under `benchmarks/<model>/...` with the same pattern: `transformers/`, `vllm_omni/`, task-specific README, and (optionally) dataset prep notes.
+Model-agnostic serving benchmarks for TTS models, including Qwen3-TTS and VoxCPM2.
 
-## Reference workflows
-- **HF Transformers (offline, single process)**  
-  Script (example): `benchmarks/<model>/transformers/eval_qwen3_moe_omni_transformers.sh`  
-  Outputs: `benchmark_results/perf_stats.json`, `benchmark_results/results.json`, `benchmark_results/audio/` (if audio is produced).
+- **Layout**: `tts/bench_tts.py` (serving benchmark driver), `tts/model_configs.yaml` (model registry), `tts/plot_results.py` (result plotting)
+- **Dataset**: Seed-TTS full or text-only datasets, plus bundled smoke/design prompts under `build_dataset/`
+- **Key metrics**: TTFP (time to first audio packet), E2E latency, RTF (real-time factor), throughput (audio seconds / wall-clock second)
 
-- **vLLM-Omni end-to-end pipeline**  
-  Script (example): `benchmarks/<model>/vllm_omni/eval_qwen3_moe_omni.sh`  
-  Outputs: `vllm_omni/logs/*.stats.jsonl` (per-stage/overall latency & TPS), `vllm_omni/logs/stage*.log`, `vllm_omni/outputs/` (text/audio artifacts).
+### [Diffusion](diffusion/README.md) — Image and Video Generation
 
-- **Adding a new task/model**  
-  1) Create `benchmarks/<model>/transformers/` and/or `benchmarks/<model>/vllm_omni/` with scripts referencing your model and dataset.  
-  2) Add a task README describing dataset, configs, and expected outputs.  
-  3) Keep the output/log structure similar for easy comparison (perf_stats/results/audio or text outputs; stats.jsonl/logs for pipeline).
+Online-serving benchmark for diffusion image/video models, sending requests to the configured vLLM serving endpoint (`/v1/chat/completions`, `/v1/images/generations`, or `/v1/videos`, depending on backend/task).
 
-## Metrics to watch
-- **Throughput**: `overall_tps`, `*_tps_avg` per stage.
-- **Latency distribution**: look for long tails in `*.stats.jsonl`.
-- **Quality/completeness**: missing outputs or errors in stage logs indicate pipeline failures or misconfigurations.
+- **Tasks**: text-to-image, text-to-video, image-to-image, image-to-video, text+image-to-image, text+image-to-video
+- **Datasets**: `vbench`, `trace`, `random`
+- **Key metrics**: request throughput, latency percentiles, optional SLO attainment
 
-## Troubleshooting
-- Verify GPU/driver/FlashAttention2 requirements for your chosen model/config.
-- Ensure network access for dataset/model downloads (Google Drive, Hugging Face, etc.).
-- If outputs are missing or slow, inspect per-stage logs and `*.stats.jsonl` for errors, stragglers, or contention.
+### [GLM-Image](glm_image/README.md) — Text-to-Image and Image-to-Image
+
+Benchmarks for GLM-Image performance across HuggingFace baseline, vLLM-Omni offline inference, and vLLM-Omni online serving.
+
+- **Layout**: `glm_image/huggingface/` (HF baseline), `glm_image/vllm-omni/` (offline inference), `glm_image/benchmark_glm_image.py` (online serving)
+- **Tasks**: text-to-image and image-to-image
+- **Key metrics**: request/image throughput, latency percentiles, optional per-stage pipeline timings
+
+### [Distributed](distributed/omni_connectors/README.md) — RDMA Connector Testing
+
+RDMA environment setup and transfer tests for `MooncakeTransferEngineConnector`, including pytest-based single-node checks and manual cross-node benchmarks.
+
+- **Transfer modes**: `copy`, `zerocopy`, `gpu` (GPUDirect)
+- **Supports**: single-node pytest suites and manual multi-node/cross-node transfer testing
+
+### [Accuracy](accuracy/README.md) — Image Generation and Editing Quality
+
+Accuracy benchmarks for image generation/editing models, adapting external suites to vLLM-Omni serving and local judge-evaluation flows.
+
+- **Layout**: `accuracy/text_to_image/` (GEBench), `accuracy/image_to_image/` (GEdit-Bench)
+- **Method**: generation and judge scoring both run through local `vllm-omni serve` endpoints
+
+### Common serving metrics framework
+
+`vllm_omni/benchmarks/` extends `vllm bench serve --omni` with Omni-specific datasets, backends, and multimodal metrics. Key metrics include:
+
+- **Text output**: TTFT (time to first token), TPOT (time per output token), ITL (inter-token latency)
+- **Audio output**: TTFP (time to first audio packet), E2E latency, RTF (real-time factor)
+- **Throughput**: request throughput, output token throughput, total token throughput, audio throughput
+
+See `vllm_omni/benchmarks/serve.py` for the `vllm bench serve --omni` runner wrapper and `vllm_omni/benchmarks/metrics/` for Omni metric definitions.
+
+## Adding a new benchmark
+
+1. Create a subfolder under `benchmarks/<name>/` with scripts, configs if needed, and a `README.md`.
+2. If comparing against another runtime, use clear backend subfolders where applicable, such as `huggingface/` and `vllm-omni/`, or follow the shared TTS serving benchmark pattern in `tts/`.
+3. Add reusable dataset or prompt-building utilities to `build_dataset/` if applicable.
+4. Update this README with a link to the new benchmark family.

-- The benchmark talks to `http://<host>:<port>/v1/chat/completions`.
+- By default, image tasks talk to `http://<host>:<port>/v1/chat/completions`; video tasks talk to `/v1/videos`.
 - If you run the server on another host or port, pass `--base-url` accordingly.
-- To compare diffusion multi-replica serving, restart the server with different
-  `runtime.num_replicas` values and keep the benchmark parameters unchanged.

@@ -95,39 +93,11 @@ You can point to your own trace using `--dataset-path`.
 
 ## 3. Benchmark Parameters
 
-### Multi-replica sweep
-
-For replica scaling, use the same model, prompt count, image/video size, and
-step count for every run. Change only the serving stage config:
-
-```yaml
-runtime:
-  devices: "0,1,2,3"
-  num_replicas: 4
-```
-
-Then run a fixed benchmark and write one JSON file per replica count:
-
-```bash
-python3 benchmarks/diffusion/diffusion_benchmark_serving.py \
-  --base-url http://localhost:8099 \
-  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image \
-  --task t2i \
-  --dataset random \
-  --num-prompts 32 \
-  --max-concurrency 8 \
-  --request-rate inf \
-  --num-inference-steps 10 \
-  --width 512 --height 512 \
-  --output-file diffusion_replica_4.json
-```
-
-Repeat for `num_replicas=1`, `2`, `3`, and `4`, using matching `runtime.devices`.
-
 ### Basic flags
 
-- `--base-url`: Server address (the script calls `.../v1/chat/completions`).
+- `--base-url`: Server address; `--endpoint` selects the path appended to this base URL.
 - `--model`: The OpenAI-compatible `model` field.
+- `--endpoint`: API endpoint path. Leading `/` is optional, e.g. `/v1/videos` or `v1/videos`.
 - `--task`: Task type (e.g., `t2i`, `t2v`, `i2i`, `i2v`).
 - `--dataset`: Dataset mode (`vbench` / `trace` / `random`).
 - `--num-prompts`: Number of requests to send.

+
+  (a) cuDNN lacks a tuned kernel for this (SM, head_dim, seq) combination

+  output - any positive value means at least one inter-chunk gap was longer
+  than the chunk's audio duration.
+- `Streaming continuity OK rate` - fraction of requests whose worst-case
+  underrun stayed under the threshold (default 100 ms, the commonly cited
+  "audible gap" budget). Override the threshold with
+  `VLLM_OMNI_BENCH_AUDIO_CONTINUITY_THRESHOLD_S=<float>`.
+
+This captures the failure mode where `RTF_p50 < 1` (server keeps up in
+aggregate) but per-stream chunk arrival is bursty enough that listeners
+still hear gaps - common at high concurrency on streaming TTS pipelines.

+Explanation:
+- stage_gen_time: Time from submitting a request to a specific stage to that stage finishing generation.
+
+- Serving TTFC (Time to First Chunk): Time from the HTTP request being accepted by the serving frontend to
+  the stage producing its first non-empty output chunk. Keep the name TTFT in text stage, TTFP in audio stage
+  for easier mapping.
+
+- TPOP (Time per Output Chunk): Average time from the first output chunk to stage completion, divided by the
+  number of remaining output chunks. The TPOP abbreviation follows Qwen3.5-Omni Technical Report.
+
+- ICL (Inter-Chunk Latency): Time between two consecutive output chunks produced by the same stage. Keep the
+  name ITL in text stage for easier mapping.

-**Attention backends:** vLLM-Omni automatically selects the attention backend given the environmental variable `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND`. The default attention backend is `FLASH_ATTN` for diffusion models.
+**Declaring attention roles**
+
+The `role` argument is a free-form string that identifies this attention site. Users can match it from `--diffusion-attention-config.per_role.<role>.*` to swap backends without touching model code. Two conventions cover the common cases:
+
+| Convention | When to use | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `"self"` | Q/K/V come from the same hidden state | DiT self-attention block |
+| `"cross"` | K/V come from a separate `encoder_hidden_states` | Text-conditioned cross-attention |
+
+For multi-modal or unusual sites, use a dot-namespaced role and pair it with `role_category` so it can fall back to the generic config when nothing model-specific is set:
+
+```python
+# A model-specific cross-attention site that user config can target
+# either as 'mymodel.audio_to_video' (exact) or as 'cross' (category fallback).

+)
+```
+
+For cross-attention sites whose K/V are replicated across ranks (e.g. text encoder output), pass `skip_sequence_parallel=True` to opt this layer out of sequence-parallel sharding.
+
+**Attention backends:** When the user does not configure a backend, vLLM-Omni asks the current platform for its default (typically `FLASH_ATTN` on CUDA when available). Users override the default via `--diffusion-attention-backend`, the `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` env var, or finer-grained `--diffusion-attention-config.per_role.*` flags.

+# YuanrongTransferEngineConnector
+
+## When to Use
+
+Use `YuanrongTransferEngineConnector` for high-performance peer-to-peer KV cache
+transfer on Ascend NPU. It is different from `YuanrongConnector`:
+
+- `YuanrongConnector` uses Yuanrong Datasystem as a distributed KV store and
+  requires Datasystem workers plus etcd.
+- `YuanrongTransferEngineConnector` uses Yuanrong TransferEngine directly. It
+  registers local memory in each stage worker and lets the receiver pull data
+  from the sender with TransferEngine.
+
+The implementation currently lives under
+`vllm_omni/platforms/npu/omni_connectors/` because the supported backend is
+Ascend NPU only. The connector is still registered with the generic
+OmniConnector factory under the name `YuanrongTransferEngineConnector`.
+
+For Ascend P2P transfer, the connector should use NPU memory as its transfer
+pool. The Mooncake-style CPU pool is not supported for this connector.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Install Yuanrong Datasystem/TransferEngine Python bindings in the runtime
+environment. The packaged install is:
+
+```bash
+pip install openyuanrong-datasystem
+```
+
+To build from source, follow the upstream project instructions:
+
+- Source repository: [openeuler/yuanrong-datasystem](https://atomgit.com/openeuler/yuanrong-datasystem)
+- Installation guide: [Yuanrong Datasystem Linux installation](https://pages.openeuler.openatom.cn/openyuanrong-datasystem/docs/zh-cn/latest/installation/installation_linux.html)
+
+The Ascend driver, CANN runtime, HCCL/HCCP, and NPU device network must also be
+configured on every machine participating in the transfer.
+
+## Check NPU Device IPv4
+
+Yuanrong TransferEngine with `protocol: "ascend"` uses the NPU device network,
+not only the host management IP. Each participating NPU must have an IPv4 HCCN
+device IP.
+
+Check the device IP, link, and health state:
+
+```bash
+for i in {0..7}; do
+  echo "===== NPU $i ====="
+  hccn_tool -i "$i" -ip -g
+  hccn_tool -i "$i" -link -g
+  hccn_tool -i "$i" -net_health -g
+done
+```
+
+Expected output for each NPU should include an IPv4 address and healthy link:
+
+```text
+ipaddr:10.86.1.80
+netmask:255.255.255.0
+link status: UP
+net health status: Success
+```
+
+If the output says `Get ipconf failed, because no ip was preset there!`, the NPU
+device IP is not configured and Ascend P2P will fail. If the address is IPv6,
+configure IPv4 for this connector path or validate that the underlying Yuanrong
+TransferEngine build supports the IPv6 HCCN path before using it.
+
+## Check Device-to-Device Connectivity
+
+After collecting the target-stage NPU IPv4 addresses, ping them from each
+source-stage NPU:
+
+```bash
+# Example: AR uses NPU 0..3 and DiT uses NPU 4..7.
+# Replace the destination IPs with the values reported by hccn_tool -i 4..7 -ip -g.
+for src in 0 1 2 3; do
+  for dst_ip in 10.86.1.78 10.86.1.79 10.86.1.80 10.86.1.81; do
+    echo "===== NPU $src -> $dst_ip ====="
+    hccn_tool -i "$src" -ping -g address "$dst_ip" || true
+  done
+done
+```
+
+The expected result is `0.00% packet loss` for every required source/target pair.
+This verifies basic HCCN IPv4 connectivity. TransferEngine can still fail later
+if RDMA/QP/HCCL setup is broken, but failed ping means the device network must be
+fixed first.
+
+## YAML Configuration
+
+For Ascend P2P, configure the connector with `protocol: "ascend"` and an NPU
+memory pool:
+
+```yaml
+runtime:
+  enabled: true
+  defaults:
+    window_size: -1
+    max_inflight: 1
+  connectors:
+    yuanrong_te_connector:
+      name: YuanrongTransferEngineConnector
+      extra:
+        host: "auto"
+        zmq_port: 50051
+        rpc_port: "auto"
+        protocol: "ascend"
+        device_name: "auto"
+        memory_pool_size: 1073741824
+        memory_pool_device: "npu"
+  edges:
+    - from: 0
+      to: 1
+      window_size: -1
+```
+
+Important fields:
+
+| Parameter | Recommended Value | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `host` | `"auto"` | Advertises a routable local host IP for ZMQ metadata exchange. |
+| `zmq_port` | `50051` | Base ZMQ port. The runtime applies stage/rank offsets. |
+| `rpc_port` | `"auto"` | Lets TransferEngine choose an available RPC port. |
+| `protocol` | `"ascend"` | Uses the Ascend TransferEngine backend. |
+| `device_name` | `"auto"` | Each TP worker resolves to its local logical NPU, for example `npu:0`, `npu:1`, etc. |
+| `memory_pool_device` | `"npu"` | Required for the Ascend fast path. This registers NPU memory with TransferEngine. |
+| `memory_pool_size` | `1073741824` | 1 GiB per worker is a practical starting point for KV-cache transfer validation. Increase if the transfer pool is exhausted. |
+
+`memory_pool_device: "cpu"` is rejected for
+`YuanrongTransferEngineConnector` with `protocol: "ascend"`. CPU pool registration
+can lead to Ascend P2P failures such as HCCL RA init errors, QP timeouts, or
+FFTS/SDMA runtime errors. `memory_pool_device: "cpu"` is common for
+`MooncakeTransferEngineConnector`, but Yuanrong TE on Ascend only supports
+`"npu"`.
+
+## 4-Card AR-to-DiT TP Example
+
+For AR 4-way TP sending KV cache to DiT 4-way TP, set the stage TP topology in
+both stage `omni_kv_config` blocks:
+
+```yaml
+stage_args:
+  - stage_id: 0
+    runtime:
+      devices: "0,1,2,3"
+    engine_args:
+      tensor_parallel_size: 4
+      omni_kv_config:
+        need_send_cache: true
+        rank_mapping:
+          from_tp: 4
+          to_tp: 4
+    output_connectors:
+      to_stage_1: yuanrong_te_connector
+
+  - stage_id: 1
+    runtime:
+      devices: "4,5,6,7"
+    engine_args:
+      parallel_config:
+        tensor_parallel_size: 4
+      omni_kv_config:
+        need_recv_cache: true
+        rank_mapping:
+          from_tp: 4
+          to_tp: 4
+    input_connectors:
+      from_stage_0: yuanrong_te_connector
+```
+
+In this topology each DiT rank receives the corresponding AR rank shard:
+
+```text
+DiT rank 0 <- AR rank 0
+DiT rank 1 <- AR rank 1
+DiT rank 2 <- AR rank 2
+DiT rank 3 <- AR rank 3
+```
+
+## Validate a Successful Run
+
+Search the inference log for Yuanrong TE receive-side messages:
+
+```bash
+grep -E "\[YR GET\]|Successfully received KV cache|transfer_engine get failed" inference.log
+```
+
+A successful Ascend fast-path transfer contains lines like:
+
+```text
+[YR GET] ... fast_path, zero-copy
+Successfully received KV cache ... across 1 key(s)
+Applied CFG KV caches
+[KV Reuse] ...
+```
+
+Sender-side `KV transfer OK` only means that the sender registered the payload
+and metadata. The actual P2P data transfer happens on the receiver side during
+`[YR GET]`.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Likely Cause | Action |
+|---|---|---|
+| `IPv4 device IP not found` | NPU HCCN IPv4 is missing. | Run `hccn_tool -i <id> -ip -g` and configure IPv4 for every participating NPU. |
+| `P2PCommInitRootInfo failed`, `ra init failed`, `RA_QP_STATUS_TIMEOUT` | Ascend P2P/RDMA/QP setup failed. | First verify device IPv4, link health, and device-to-device ping. Then test a minimal Yuanrong TE pair outside vLLM. |
+| `fftsplus sdma error`, `context is abort` | Runtime SDMA/FFTS failure, often after an invalid or failed P2P transfer. | Use `memory_pool_device: "npu"` for Ascend TE, reduce `memory_pool_size` if OOM occurs, and isolate the failing NPU pair with a Yuanrong TE demo. |
+| Sender logs `KV transfer OK` but receiver never logs `[YR GET]` | Sender `put()` succeeded, receiver P2P read failed or timed out. | Check receiver logs and search for `transfer_engine get failed`. |
+| Pool allocation fails or OOM | Transfer pool is too small or too large for available NPU memory. | Start with 1 GiB (`1073741824`), reduce to 512 MiB for validation, or increase for larger KV payloads. |

+# Pipeline Parallel
+
+This section describes how to add Pipeline Parallelism (PP) to a diffusion pipeline. We use the Wan2.2 text-to-video and
+image-to-video pipelines as the reference implementations.
+
+## Implementation Checklist
+
+Adding Pipeline Parallel support requires:
+
+1. ✅ **Inherit the mixin** - add `PipelineParallelMixin` before `CFGParallelMixin` in the pipeline class
+2. ✅ **Make stage forward resumable** - support `intermediate_tensors` in the transformer forward path
+3. ✅ **Return the right object type** - `IntermediateTensors` on non-last PP ranks, final model output on the last rank
+4. ✅ **Use the standard denoising loop** - call `predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()` and `scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()`
+5. ✅ **Test parity** - compare PP results against the single-GPU baseline

+
+## Overview
+
+### What is Pipeline Parallelism?
+
+Pipeline Parallelism splits the denoising transformer into multiple sequential stages and places each stage on a
+different rank. Instead of every rank holding the full DiT, each PP rank owns only a slice of the layers.
+
+For each denoising step:
+
+1. Rank 0 starts the forward pass using the current latents.
+2. Each intermediate rank receives hidden states from the previous rank, runs its local layer slice, and forwards the
+   intermediate tensors downstream.
+3. The last PP rank produces the final noise prediction.
+4. The last PP rank applies the scheduler step and sends the updated latents back to rank 0 for the next timestep.
+
+This reduces per-rank model memory and enables larger diffusion transformers to run across multiple GPUs. It can also be
+combined with CFG-Parallel, where each PP pipeline carries one CFG branch.
+
+### Architecture
+
+vLLM-Omni provides `PipelineParallelMixin` to encapsulate the PP communication pattern for diffusion pipelines.
+
+| Method                            | Purpose                       | Automatic Behavior                                                              |
+|-----------------------------------|-------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `diffuse()`                       | Denoising loop boundary       | Wrapped by `PipelineParallelMixin` to flush pending async PP sends on exit      |
+| `predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()`  | Predict noise with PP support | Runs partial forwards on non-last PP ranks, combines with CFG logic when needed |
+| `scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()` | Step scheduler with PP sync   | Runs scheduler on the last PP rank, returns updated latents to rank 0           |
+| `_sync_pp_send()`                 | Flush pending async sends     | Waits for outstanding `isend` handles before later collectives or decode        |
+
+`PipelineParallelMixin` is intentionally a pipeline-level abstraction. Your model-specific `predict_noise()` still
+defines how a local stage executes.
+
+### How It Works
+
+`predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()` automatically switches between these modes:
+
+- **PP disabled** (`pipeline_parallel_size == 1`):
+    - Falls back to `CFGParallelMixin.predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()`
+- **PP only** (`pipeline_parallel_size > 1`, `cfg_parallel_size == 1`):
+    - Rank 0 starts with the input latents
+    - Middle ranks receive `intermediate_tensors`, run their local layer range, and asynchronously send downstream
+    - The last rank returns the final noise prediction
+    - When CFG is enabled in this mode (sequential CFG), both the positive and negative branches run through the same
+      PP pipeline, doubling the communication volume per denoising step. Prefer PP + CFG-Parallel when
+      `cfg_parallel_size > 1` is available to avoid this overhead.
+- **PP + CFG-Parallel** (`pipeline_parallel_size > 1`, `cfg_parallel_size > 1`):
+    - Each PP pipeline carries one CFG branch
+    - The last PP rank all-gathers across the CFG group
+    - CFG combination happens on every last PP rank in the CFG group, matching the non-PP CFG-parallel behavior
+
+`scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()` keeps the denoising loop consistent:
+
+- **PP disabled**:
+    - Falls back to `scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()`
+- **PP enabled**:
+    - Only the last PP rank has `noise_pred` and runs the scheduler step
+    - The resulting latents are sent back to rank 0
+    - Rank 0 receives an `AsyncLatents` wrapper that resolves only when the tensor is next consumed
+
+This asynchronous design avoids unnecessary blocking between denoising steps.
+
+When a pipeline class is defined, `PipelineParallelMixin` wraps its `diffuse()` method and calls `_sync_pp_send()` in a
+`finally` block after `diffuse()` returns or raises. This keeps model code free of explicit PP cleanup while still
+ensuring that the final non-blocking PP send completes before decode or later collectives.
+
+---
+
+## Step-by-Step Implementation
+
+### Step 1: Inherit `PipelineParallelMixin` and `CFGParallelMixin`
+
+`PipelineParallelMixin` **requires** `CFGParallelMixin` and must appear before it in the class MRO. This is enforced at
+class definition time via `__init_subclass__`: defining a pipeline that inherits `PipelineParallelMixin` without
+`CFGParallelMixin`, or after `CFGParallelMixin`, raises a `TypeError` immediately on import.
+
+`PipelineParallelMixin` delegates noise prediction, CFG combination, and scheduler stepping to `CFGParallelMixin`, which
+supplies `predict_noise()`, `predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()`, `scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()`, and
+`combine_cfg_noise()`.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.distributed.cfg_parallel import CFGParallelMixin
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.distributed.pipeline_parallel import PipelineParallelMixin
+import torch.nn as nn
+
+
+class YourPipeline(nn.Module, PipelineParallelMixin, CFGParallelMixin):
+    ...
+```
+
+The order matters: `PipelineParallelMixin` must be listed before `CFGParallelMixin` so calls to
+`predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()` and `scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()` resolve to the PP-aware wrappers, while their
+`super()` calls delegate to the CFG implementation when PP is disabled or after the last PP stage.
+
+### Step 2: Make model forward and `predict_noise()` PP-aware
+
+The PP mixin injects `intermediate_tensors` into the normal `predict_noise()` call. Your model forward path must support
+two inputs:
+
+- Normal input from rank 0, typically passed as `hidden_states` or `x`
+- `intermediate_tensors` from upstream PP ranks
+
+The standard model forward pattern is:
+
+1. If `intermediate_tensors` is present, read the local hidden state from it.
+2. Run only this rank's layer slice.
+3. Return `IntermediateTensors(...)` on non-last PP ranks.
+4. Return the final model output on the last PP rank. `CFGParallelMixin.predict_noise()` already follows this contract
+   for common pipelines.
+
+**Minimal example:**
+
+```python
+from vllm.sequence import IntermediateTensors
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.distributed.parallel_state import get_pp_group
+
+
+def forward(self, hidden_states=None, intermediate_tensors=None, **kwargs):
+    if intermediate_tensors is not None:
+        hidden_states = intermediate_tensors["hidden_states"]
+
+    for i in range(self.start_layer, self.end_layer):
+        hidden_states = self.layers[i](hidden_states)
+
+    pp_group = get_pp_group()
+    if not pp_group.is_last_rank:
+        return IntermediateTensors({"hidden_states": hidden_states})
+    return (hidden_states,)
+```
+
+### Step 3: Partition the transformer layers
+
+The local module on each PP rank must expose only that rank's layer slice. In the reference tests and vLLM model
+implementations, this is typically done with vLLM utilities such as `make_layers(...)`, which fill missing ranges with
+`PPMissingLayer`. Besides partitioning the layers themselves, model authors should also wire
+`make_empty_intermediate_tensors_factory(...)` for intermediate tensor allocation and `is_pp_missing_parameter(...)` for
+PP-aware weight loading.
+
+To prepare a transformer for PP, implement the following pieces in order.
+
+#### 3.1 Split the transformer layers across PP ranks
+
+Each PP rank should own only its local layer range, typically exposed as `[start_layer, end_layer)`. In practice this is
+usually done with `make_layers(...)`, which constructs local layers and fills missing ranges with `PPMissingLayer`.
+
+The goal is:
+
+- every PP rank knows its `[start_layer, end_layer)` range
+- non-local layers do not execute on this rank
+- the forward can resume from incoming `intermediate_tensors`
+
+By default, layers are distributed evenly across PP ranks using `get_pp_indices()`. When the number of layers is not
+divisible by the PP size, remaining layers are assigned to middle partitions to balance compute and memory. You can
+override this with the `VLLM_PP_LAYER_PARTITION` environment variable to specify an exact per-rank layer count:
+
+```bash
+# Example: 40 layers across 4 PP ranks, assigning 8 / 12 / 12 / 8 layers
+export VLLM_PP_LAYER_PARTITION=8,12,12,8
+```
+
+The value must be a comma-separated list of integers whose length equals `pipeline_parallel_size` and whose sum equals
+the total number of transformer layers.
+
+#### 3.2 Expose `make_empty_intermediate_tensors`
+
+Your transformer module should expose `self.make_empty_intermediate_tensors`, typically created with
+`make_empty_intermediate_tensors_factory(...)`.
+
+This is important because PP ranks need a consistent way to allocate placeholder `IntermediateTensors` with the expected
+keys and hidden dimension.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```python
+from vllm.model_executor.models.utils import make_empty_intermediate_tensors_factory
+
+self.make_empty_intermediate_tensors = make_empty_intermediate_tensors_factory(
+    ["hidden_states"],
+    inner_dim,
+)
+```
+
+For Wan2.2, the intermediate payload between PP stages is the token sequence stored under `"hidden_states"`, so the
+factory is created with that key and the transformer hidden size.
+
+#### 3.3 Return `IntermediateTensors` on non-last PP ranks
+
+Your model `forward()` or custom `predict_noise()` implementation should consume `intermediate_tensors` on non-first
+ranks and return `IntermediateTensors(...)` on non-last ranks.
+
+This lets each PP stage resume from the upstream hidden states and pass the local result to the next stage.
+
+#### 3.4 Skip non-local weights during `load_weights()`
+
+When a model is PP-partitioned, many parameters in the checkpoint belong to layers that do not exist on the current
+rank. `load_weights()` must therefore skip parameters for missing PP stages using `is_pp_missing_parameter(...)`.
+
+If this is not done, weight loading will either fail or incorrectly try to load tensors into `PPMissingLayer`
+placeholders.
+
+The Wan2.2 transformer is the best reference here: it uses `is_pp_missing_parameter(...)` before loading both remapped
+and fused parameters.
+
+If your model has multiple transformer variants, PP still works as long as each selected transformer obeys the same
+contract.
+
+### Step 4: Use the standard denoising contract
+
+vLLM-Omni diffusion pipelines already route denoising through `diffuse()`, `predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()`, and
+`scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()`. `PipelineParallelMixin` overrides those standard helpers when
+`pipeline_parallel_size > 1`, so model integrations should not add separate PP-specific helper names or manual post-loop
+synchronization.
+
+In PP mode:
+
+- Non-last PP ranks return `None` from `predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()` after sending `IntermediateTensors` downstream.
+- The last PP rank returns the final prediction, and with CFG-Parallel every last PP rank in the CFG group receives the
+  combined result.
+- Rank 0 receives `AsyncLatents` from `scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg()`, which resolves only when the latents are
+  consumed.
+- Pending non-blocking sends are flushed automatically when `diffuse()` exits.
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+Use an offline inference script with `pipeline_parallel_size > 1`.
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_video/text_to_video.py \
+--model=Wan-AI/Wan2.2-TI2V-5B-Diffusers \
+--width=1280 \
+--height=704 \
+--guidance-scale=5.0 \
+--prompt="Two anthropomorphic cats in comfy boxing gear and bright gloves fight intensely on a spotlighted stage" \
+--output=t2v_5B_pp2.mp4 \
+--pipeline-parallel-size=2
+```
+
+For PP + CFG-Parallel together:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_video/text_to_video.py \
+--model=Wan-AI/Wan2.2-TI2V-5B-Diffusers \
+--width=1280 \
+--height=704 \
+--guidance-scale=5.0 \
+--prompt="Two anthropomorphic cats in comfy boxing gear and bright gloves fight intensely on a spotlighted stage" \
+--output=t2v_5B_pp2_cfg2.mp4 \
+--pipeline-parallel-size=2 \
+--cfg-parallel-size=2
+```
+
+**Verify:**
+
+1. The run completes without hangs at the PP stage boundary
+2. Output quality matches the non-PP baseline within normal numerical variance
+3. Peak memory per GPU drops compared with the single-rank model
+4. There are no outstanding communication errors before decode
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: `TypeError` on import — `CFGParallelMixin` missing
+
+**Symptoms:** Importing a pipeline that inherits `PipelineParallelMixin` raises:
+
+```
+TypeError: YourPipeline inherits PipelineParallelMixin but not CFGParallelMixin.
+```
+
+or:
+
+```
+TypeError: YourPipeline must inherit PipelineParallelMixin before CFGParallelMixin ...
+```
+
+**Cause:** `PipelineParallelMixin` enforces via `__init_subclass__` that the subclass also inherits `CFGParallelMixin`
+and lists `PipelineParallelMixin` first in the MRO.
+
+**Solution:** Add `CFGParallelMixin` to the pipeline's base classes after `PipelineParallelMixin`:
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.distributed.cfg_parallel import CFGParallelMixin
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.distributed.pipeline_parallel import PipelineParallelMixin
+
+
+class YourPipeline(nn.Module, PipelineParallelMixin, CFGParallelMixin):
+    ...
+```
+
+### Issue: Non-last PP ranks crash when calling `predict_noise`
+
+**Symptoms:** Shape or missing-input errors on ranks other than the first or last PP rank.
+
+**Cause:** The model forward path assumes direct input tensors and ignores `intermediate_tensors`.
+
+**Solution:** Update the transformer `forward()` or custom `predict_noise()` path to load hidden states from
+`intermediate_tensors` when present.
+
+### Issue: PP outputs differ from single-GPU baseline
+
+**Symptoms:** The PP run finishes but produces numerically inconsistent outputs.
+
+**Causes & Solutions:**
+
+- **Local layer partitioning is wrong**
+    - Verify each rank runs only its `[start_layer, end_layer)` slice
+- **Non-last ranks return a plain tensor instead of `IntermediateTensors`**
+    - Return `IntermediateTensors({...})` until the last PP stage
+- **CFG branch wiring is incorrect**
+    - When CFG is enabled, confirm positive and negative kwargs are passed exactly as in the non-PP path

+# Prometheus Metrics Design
+
+This document describes how vLLM-Omni exposes Prometheus metrics for multi-stage pipelines, the constraints that shaped the design, and how the pipeline-level metrics coexist with upstream vLLM per-engine metrics. This iteration covers the text and audio surface; diffusion / image / video families land in a follow-up.
+
+## Objectives
+
+- Expose pipeline-level request and latency metrics that span the full multi-stage execution (orchestrator scope).
+- Preserve all upstream vLLM per-engine metrics (`vllm:*`) for stages backed by an AR LLM engine, and reshape their `engine` label into `stage` + `replica` so multi-replica deployments gain per-replica visibility automatically.
+- Expose per-modality SLO metrics that the upstream `vllm:*` families do not capture — audio TTFP / RTF / duration / frames / streaming continuity / silent-loss.
+- Expose per-replica-edge cross-stage transfer metrics so the slack between E2E latency and the sum of per-stage `gen_time` (queueing, serialization, network) becomes attributable.
+- Keep the metrics collection overhead low enough that it does not regress TTFA or throughput.
+
+## Background
+
+### Upstream vLLM Metrics
+
+Upstream vLLM defines ~37 Prometheus metric families under the `vllm:` prefix. These are registered by `PrometheusStatLogger` and cover engine-level state: KV cache usage, running/waiting request counts, token throughput, TTFT, inter-token latency, e2e latency, and so on. They are served via the `/metrics` HTTP endpoint provided by `prometheus_fastapi_instrumentator` and the default `prometheus_client` WSGI handler.
+
+vLLM's `unregister_vllm_metrics()` function strips every `prometheus_client` collector whose `_name` attribute contains the substring `"vllm"`. This runs during engine initialization to clean up stale collectors from prior instantiations within the same process.
+
+### The Problem
+
+vLLM-Omni runs multiple engine instances (stages × replicas) within a single process, coordinated by an Orchestrator. The pipeline needs its own metrics — aggregate request counts, end-to-end latency across all stages, per-modality SLO signals, and cross-stage transfer attribution — that do not exist in upstream vLLM. All pipeline-level metrics use the `vllm:omni_` prefix to distinguish them from upstream per-engine metrics. At import time (see `vllm_omni/patch.py`) we replace `unregister_vllm_metrics()` with a scoped version that still strips upstream `vllm:*` collectors before each new `PrometheusStatLogger` registers (so multi-engine processes don't crash on duplicate registration), but preserves anything prefixed `vllm:omni_` / `vllm_omni`.
+
+Upstream per-engine metrics retain the `vllm:` prefix but are now registered by `OmniPrometheusStatLogger`, a thin subclass of upstream's `PrometheusStatLogger` that reshapes the single `engine` label into a `stage` + `replica` pair (see "OmniPrometheusStatLogger wrap" below).

+
+### Data Flow
+
+There are four independent paths for metric collection.
+
+**Path 1: Pipeline-level metrics (`vllm:omni_*`)**
+
+`OmniPrometheusMetrics` registers the Gauge / Counter / Histogram collectors at import time. It is instantiated once per entrypoint, labeled with the model name. The entrypoint calls its methods as requests progress:
+
+- `set_running(n)` / `set_waiting(n)` — updated after each request completes. The running count comes from `OmniRequestCounter`, a simple counter incremented/decremented by the Orchestrator as it tracks requests. Waiting is derived as `total - running`.
+- `request_succeeded(e2e_seconds, finished_reason="stop")` — recorded when a request finishes at the final stage. `finished_reason` is extracted from `engine_outputs.outputs[0].finish_reason` (vLLM `CompletionOutput` convention) and increments `vllm:omni_requests_success_total{finished_reason}`.
+- `request_failed()` — recorded by the cleanup path when a request exits without natural completion. Internally maps to `finished_reason="abort"` so a single Counter family covers both natural and aborted completion.
+
+**Path 2: Audio modality metrics (`vllm:omni_audio_*`)**
+
+`OmniModalityMetrics` registers seven audio families with `{model_name, stage, replica}` (plus an extra `threshold_ms` / `reason` label on the two extra-cardinality Counters). Three observation sites:
+
+- `observe_modality_at_finalize(...)` — called from `omni_base._process_single_result` inside the existing `e2e_done` finalize guard. For `output_type == "audio"` it emits `audio_frames_total`, `audio_duration_s`, `audio_rtf` (or `audio_skipped_requests_total{reason="no_audio_data"}` when no audio was produced). Sample rate is resolved from `engine_outputs.multimodal_output` via `definitions.resolve_audio_sample_rate(...)` (fallback chain mirrors `serving_chat.py`'s audio response path).
+- `observe_audio_first_packet(...)` — called from the OpenAI SSE audio branch in `serving_chat.py` on the first audio packet for a request. The once-per-request guard is held by `ClientRequestState.first_audio_ts`. The `request_arrival_ts` anchor is stored in `ClientRequestState` by `async_omni.generate()`, computed at request entry.
+- `observe_audio_streaming_finalize(...)` — called from `serving_chat.py` after the streaming chunk loop exhausts. It runs the per-chunk player simulation from `vllm_omni/benchmarks/audio_continuity.py` to compute the worst-case underrun and emits `audio_underrun_s` plus (when the request stayed below the threshold) `audio_continuity_ok_total{threshold_ms}`. Per-chunk PCM byte counts and arrival timestamps are recorded by the same audio branch that updates `first_audio_ts`.
+
+**Path 3: Cross-stage transfer metrics (`vllm:omni_transfer_*`)**
+
+`OmniTransferMetrics` registers four Histogram families with `{model_name, from_stage, from_replica, to_stage, to_replica}` labels. Each observation corresponds to one physical transfer hop (one chunk between adjacent stages), not the per-request accumulated total — so the histograms track per-transfer distribution.
+
+The hook lives in `OrchestratorAggregator.record_transfer_tx` and `record_transfer_rx`. After the existing `TransferEdgeStats` accumulation, the aggregator calls `_emit_transfer_tx` / `_emit_transfer_rx`. Those:
+
+1. Resolve `from_replica` / `to_replica` via a `replica_resolver` callback supplied by `async_omni.py`. The resolver delegates to `stage_pool.get_bound_replica_id(request_id)` — i.e. the orchestrator's existing sticky-routing binding is the source of truth.
+2. Convert the underlying `_ms` accumulators to seconds and call the `_s`-suffixed observe methods on `OmniTransferMetrics`.
+
+Defensive fail-safe: if `transfer_emitter` or `replica_resolver` is missing, or the resolver returns `None` for either side, the emit is skipped silently (the underlying `TransferEdgeStats` accumulation is unaffected).
+
+**Path 4: Per-engine metrics (`vllm:*`, stage/replica wrap)**
+
+The Orchestrator instantiates `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` (a thin subclass of upstream `vllm.v1.metrics.loggers.PrometheusStatLogger`) and feeds it scheduler stats and iteration stats after processing each batch of engine outputs. This populates the standard ~37 vLLM metric families (TTFT, ITL, TPOT, KV cache usage, etc.) using the same upstream code path — but with the `engine` label reshaped into `stage` + `replica` so multi-replica deployments produce distinct series per replica. See the next section for the wrap mechanics.
+
+### Shared State Between Threads
+
+The Orchestrator runs in a background thread. The API server (OmniBase) runs in the asyncio event loop thread. `OmniRequestCounter` bridges them — a plain Python object with an `int` field. The Orchestrator increments/decrements it; the entrypoint reads it for gauge updates. No lock is needed because the counter is advisory (a stale read by one Prometheus scrape interval is acceptable). It is created by `AsyncOmniEngine.__init__()` and passed to the Orchestrator at construction time.
+
+### Metric Registration and Lifecycle
+
+All `vllm:omni_*` collectors are registered once when their owning class (`OmniPrometheusMetrics` / `OmniModalityMetrics` / `OmniTransferMetrics`) is imported. Per-`(stage, replica)` labels are bound lazily on first observation to avoid registering label sets for combinations that never produce data.
+
+The `prometheus_client` default registry holds all collectors. FastAPI's `/metrics` endpoint serves the default registry, so `vllm:omni_*` and the wrapped `vllm:*` metrics appear in the same scrape response alongside `http_*` and `process_*` metrics from the instrumentator and the Python client runtime.
+
+## OmniPrometheusStatLogger Wrap
+
+Upstream `PrometheusStatLogger.__init__` hard-codes `labelnames = ["model_name", "engine"]` as a local variable, references it across ~37 metric-family construction sites, and uses the `engine` label value in five different `.labels()` call shapes (kwarg with int engine, kwarg with str engine, positional with str engine in the middle, plus a `metrics_info["engine"] = str(...)` dict pattern). To reshape `engine` into `stage` + `replica` without forking the entire upstream `__init__`, the wrap uses three coordinated mechanisms:
+
+1. **Class-level metric class slot overrides.** `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` overrides `_gauge_cls`, `_counter_cls`, `_histogram_cls` (which upstream calls via `self._gauge_cls(...)` etc.) with `_RelabelGauge` / `_RelabelCounter` / `_RelabelHistogram` wrapper classes. These intercept the `labelnames` kwarg at metric family creation time and replace `engine` with `("stage", "replica")`.
+2. **Property descriptor for `per_engine_labelvalues`.** Upstream builds `self.per_engine_labelvalues = {idx: [model_name, str(idx)]}` inside `__init__` and then captures it into a local variable for `create_metric_per_engine` calls. By making `per_engine_labelvalues` a Python property on the subclass, the setter intercepts upstream's assignment and rewrites each 2-tuple into a 3-tuple `[model_name, stage, replica]` using the `stage_replica_map` supplied at construction time. The captured local then sees the rewritten dict.
+3. **Override of `.labels()` on the wrapper classes.** For the five call sites that pass `engine` directly (kwarg or positional, int or str), `_RelabelMixin.labels()` translates the engine value back to `(stage, replica)` via a process-level `_ENGINE_INDEX_MAP` populated by `OmniPrometheusStatLogger.__init__`. This handles `gauge_engine_sleep_state.labels(engine=idx, ...)`, `counter_request_success_base.labels(model_name, str(idx), str(reason))`, `info_gauge.labels(**metrics_info)`, etc.
+
+The three sub-helpers that upstream `PrometheusStatLogger.__init__` constructs (`spec_decoding_prom` / `kv_connector_prom` / `perf_metrics_prom`) use their own `_counter_cls` / `_gauge_cls` / `_histogram_cls` slots and would otherwise build families with the raw 2-element labelnames. `_OmniPerfMetricsProm` / `_OmniSpecDecodingProm` / `_OmniKVConnectorProm` subclass each helper to route the same relabel mixin through their internal family construction.
+
+The `Orchestrator` constructs `stage_replica_map` from the static `stage_pools` configuration at startup:
+
+```python
+stage_replica_map = {
+    flat_idx: (str(stage_id), str(replica_id))
+    for flat_idx, (stage_id, replica_id) in enumerate(
+        (s, r)
+        for s, pool in enumerate(stage_pools)
+        for r in range(pool.num_replicas)
+    )
+}
+```
+
+A reverse map `(stage_id, replica_id) -> flat_idx` is maintained on the Orchestrator so the per-replica `record(engine_idx=...)` call site can look up the right flat index.
+
+> Dynamic add/remove of replicas at runtime is intentionally out of scope — the upstream `PrometheusStatLogger` materializes per-engine_idx child metrics at init time, and supporting hot-add would require non-trivial intervention into upstream's per-family child dictionaries.
+
+## Gating: `--log-stats`
+
+All metrics — both the 15 `vllm:omni_*` families and the ~65 upstream `vllm:*` wrap families — are gated by the user's `--log-stats` CLI flag (default off). The flag is plumbed from `OmniBase.__init__(log_stats=...)` through `AsyncOmniEngine` to the stage-spawn helpers and to the three Prometheus metric classes (`OmniPrometheusMetrics` / `OmniModalityMetrics` / `OmniTransferMetrics`), and is forwarded to `Orchestrator._init_metrics_state(...)`.
+
+Behavior with `--log-stats=off` (default):
+
+- The three `Omni*Metrics` classes register their module-level Gauge / Counter / Histogram families at import time (prometheus_client requires up-front registration), but each `observe / inc / set` method early-returns. The per-label child series for `vllm:omni_*` stay materialized but never have data written to them.
+- `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` is not constructed in `_init_metrics_state`, so the ~65 upstream `vllm:*` wrap families are not registered in the default registry at all.
+- The engine core's `Scheduler.make_stats()` also short-circuits inside upstream (`if not self.log_stats: return None`), so no `SchedulerStats` is produced per step — the per-iteration cost is bounded by the existing upstream gate.
+
+Behavior with `--log-stats=on`: all metric paths fire normally; the orchestrator's per-replica recording is bounded only by `OmniSchedulerMixin.make_stats()`'s per-scheduler 1 Hz throttle (see next section).
+
+The overhead with the flag on is small enough that an A/B benchmark on Qwen3-Omni-30B single replica (30 sequential audio requests) showed a mean latency delta of +0.6% (Welch's t = 0.318, n=30, not statistically significant at α=0.05); the `/metrics` line count drops from 1358 to 124 lines when the flag is off.
+
+## Throttling: `make_stats()` Override
+
+Upstream vLLM's `Scheduler.make_stats()` runs on every AR generation step, returning a SchedulerStats object for the orchestrator. Under vLLM's architecture, this is fine. But since vLLM-Omni requires that the object be serialized and transferred over ZMQ, receiving a SchedulerStats object on every step can introduce unacceptable overhead to the system.
+
+`OmniSchedulerMixin.make_stats()` (in `vllm_omni/core/sched/omni_scheduler_mixin.py`) throttles stats emission to at most once per second **per scheduler** — i.e. per `(stage, replica)` since each replica owns its own scheduler instance. Between intervals it returns `None`, which the engine core skips serializing. This keeps gauges fresh enough for Prometheus scrapes (typically 15-30s intervals) while eliminating the per-step overhead.
+
+The orchestrator side does not add its own throttle on top: the per-replica recording loop gates only on `raw_outputs.scheduler_stats is not None` (i.e. this replica's scheduler passed its own 1 Hz gate). A previous global `_last_stats_ts` on the orchestrator was removed because it starved every replica other than the first to emit within each second.

+### LLM stage-level (wrapped `vllm:*`)
+
+After the wrap, every upstream `vllm:*` family — TTFT, ITL, TPOT, e2e latency, KV cache usage, scheduler running/waiting, request success counts, etc. — carries `{model_name, stage, replica}` labels. For the full upstream catalog see [the vLLM docs](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/main/docs/usage/metrics.md); note that metrics depending on features unsupported in vLLM-Omni (e.g. speculative decoding, LoRA) will not be available.
+
+## Naming Convention
+
+- All time-bearing metrics use the `_s` suffix (values in seconds). Two bucket families are used:
+  - `SECONDS_BUCKETS` (0.05 s – 300 s) for e2e / generation / TTFP style values.
+  - `SECONDS_FAST_BUCKETS` (0.001 s – 60 s) for fine-grained cross-stage transfer and audio-underrun values that need millisecond-level resolution.
+- Counters use the `_total` suffix (auto-appended by `prometheus_client`).
+- Sizes use the `_bytes` suffix.
+- All omni-specific families are prefixed `vllm:omni_`. The upstream `unregister_vllm_metrics()` function is monkey-patched to a scoped version that still strips upstream `vllm:*` collectors (so multi-engine init within one process does not crash on duplicate registration) but preserves anything prefixed `vllm:omni_` / `vllm_omni`.
+
+## Logging vs. Prometheus
+
+`OrchestratorAggregator` (in `vllm_omni/metrics/stats.py`) is the logging-oriented metrics path. It collects detailed per-request, per-stage, and per-transfer statistics and prints formatted tables to the `INFO` log. This is designed for development and debugging — individual request traces, transfer bandwidth, inter-stage timing.
+
+`OmniPrometheusMetrics` / `OmniModalityMetrics` / `OmniTransferMetrics` form the Prometheus-oriented path. They record aggregate counters, gauges, and histograms suitable for time-series monitoring and alerting. Both paths share the same source data (`StageRequestStats`, `TransferEdgeStats`) — `OrchestratorAggregator.record_transfer_tx/rx` in particular calls both the existing accumulator code and the Prometheus emit hook in the same method body. The two consumption models can run simultaneously without coupling.
+
+The separation follows upstream vLLM's pattern of `LoggingStatLogger` vs. `PrometheusStatLogger` — same underlying data, different consumption models.

+The attention system uses a **role-aware backend selector pattern**. Each `Attention` site declares a semantic `role` (`"self"`, `"cross"`, or a model-specific string).

 **Available Backends**:
 
-- **FlashAttention**: Optimized CUDA kernel (FA2/FA3) - memory efficient via tiling
+- **FlashAttention** (`FLASH_ATTN`): Memory-efficient kernel that dispatches to FA2/FA3 on CUDA, AITER on ROCm, and `mindiesd` on Ascend NPU.
 
-- **SDPA**: PyTorch's scaled dot-product attention - default, cross-platform

 These backends provide the **kernel implementations** for attention computation. For attention-level sequence parallelism strategies (Ring Attention, Ulysses), see [Parallel Attention](#52-parallel-attention).
 
 #### Backend Selection Mechanism
 
+Selection is driven by `AttentionConfig` on `OmniDiffusionConfig`, which carries a global `default` plus a `per_role` map of `AttentionSpec` entries. A role string is resolved in this order:
+
 ```python
-def get_attn_backend(head_size: int) -> type[AttentionBackend]:
-    # Check environment variable
-    backend_name = os.environ.get("DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND")
-
-    if backend_name:
-        return load_backend(backend_name.upper())
-
-    # Default to SDPA
-    return SDPABackend
+def get_attn_backend_for_role(role, head_size, attention_config=None, role_category=None):
+    # 1. attention_config.per_role[role]            — exact match
+    # 2. attention_config.per_role[role_category]   — category fallback
+    # 3. attention_config.default                   — global default
+    # 4. Platform default                           — hardware-specific
+    if attention_config is not None:
+        spec, source = attention_config.resolve_with_source(
+            role=role, role_category=role_category,
+        )
+        if spec is not None:
+            return load_backend(spec.backend), spec
+    return current_omni_platform.get_diffusion_attn_backend_cls(...), None
 ```
 
 **Selection Priority**:
 
-1. **Environment Variable**: `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` for manual override
+1. **Per-role override** (`--diffusion-attention-config.per_role.<role>.backend`) — finest control; matched on the layer's exact `role` string.
 
-    - Valid values: `FLASH_ATTN`, `TORCH_SDPA`, `SAGE_ATTN`, `ASCEND`
+2. **Role category fallback** (`--diffusion-attention-config.per_role.<category>.backend`) — used when an exact match is missing and the layer declared `role_category` (e.g. a `"mymodel.audio_to_video"` site can fall back to `"cross"`).
 
-    - Example: `export DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND=SAGE_ATTN`
+3. **Global default** (`--diffusion-attention-backend FLASH_ATTN`, or `--diffusion-attention-config.default.backend`, or `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` env var).
 
-2. **Automatic Fallback**: Falls back to SDPA if selected backend unavailable
+4. **Platform default** — `current_omni_platform.get_diffusion_attn_backend_cls(...)` picks the best-available kernel for the hardware.
 
-3. **Hardware Detection**: Can select based on device type (NPU, CUDA, etc.)
+`AttentionSpec.extra` is forwarded to the backend constructor as `backend_kwargs`, so backend-specific parameters (e.g. SparseBlock `block_size`) can be set without changing model code.
+
+For the user-facing CLI surface, see [Diffusion Attention Backends](../../user_guide/diffusion/attention_backends.md). For the role declaration contract on the model side, see [Adding a Diffusion Model](../../contributing/model/adding_diffusion_model.md).
 
 **Backend Availability**:
 
 - **SDPA**: Always available (PyTorch built-in)
 
-- **FlashAttention**: Requires `flash-attn` package installed
+- **FlashAttention**: Requires `flash-attn` on CUDA, `aiter` on ROCm, or `mindiesd` on Ascend NPU
 
 - **SageAttention**: Requires `sage-attention` package (from THU-ML GitHub)
 
-- **AscendAttention**: Only available on Ascend NPU hardware
-
 #### Attention Backend Registry
 
-**Location**: `vllm_omni/diffusion/attention/selector.py`
+**Location**: `vllm_omni/diffusion/attention/selector.py` + `vllm_omni/platforms/<device>/platform.py`
 
-The attention system uses a **registry pattern** to manage and dynamically load attention backends. This allows for easy extension and runtime selection of backends.
-
-
-**Registry Structure**:
+Backend resolution is delegated to the active platform: `current_omni_platform.get_diffusion_attn_backend_cls(selected_backend, head_size)` returns a fully-qualified class path that `_load_backend_cls` imports lazily, with the result cached by `(backend_name, head_size)`.
 
 ```python
-# Registry mapping backend names to their module paths and class names
-_BACKEND_CONFIG = {
-    "FLASH_ATTN": {
-        "module": "vllm_omni.diffusion.attention.backends.flash_attn",
-        "class": "FlashAttentionBackend",
-    },
-    "TORCH_SDPA": {
-        "module": "vllm_omni.diffusion.attention.backends.sdpa",

-        "module": "vllm_omni.diffusion.attention.backends.sage_attn",
-        "class": "SageAttentionBackend",
-    },
-    "ASCEND": {
-        "module": "vllm_omni.diffusion.attention.backends.ascend_attn",
-        "class": "AscendAttentionBackend",
-    },
-}
+@cache
+def _cached_get_backend_cls(backend_name: str | None, head_size: int) -> type[AttentionBackend]:
+    backend_cls_path = current_omni_platform.get_diffusion_attn_backend_cls(
+        selected_backend=backend_name,
+        head_size=head_size,
+    )
+    return _load_backend_cls(backend_cls_path)
 ```
 
+Each platform (`cuda`, `rocm`, `xpu`, `musa`, `npu`) maps backend names like `"FLASH_ATTN"`, `"TORCH_SDPA"`, `"SAGE_ATTN"` to the right backend class path for that hardware, including head-size compatibility checks. Passing `selected_backend=None` lets the platform pick its own default.

+### Streaming Response Format
+
+Set `stream=true` when you want to receive the HunyuanImage3 IT2I AR
+recaption text before the final edited image is ready. Streaming is only
+available for multi-stage image edit pipelines where stage 0 produces AR text
+and a later diffusion stage produces the image. Single-stage diffusion image
+edit pipelines reject `stream=true` with HTTP 400.
+
+The response uses Server-Sent Events with `Content-Type: text/event-stream`.
+Each event is sent as one `data:` line. The stream order is:
+
+1. One or more AR text delta chunks.
+2. One final image chunk.
+3. `data: [DONE]`.
+
+AR text chunks expose only the generated text delta and the AR completion
+`index`. They do not expose token ids, ratio tokens, KV cache data, or internal
+prompt token ids.
+
+Example AR delta event:
+
+```text
+data: {"object":"image.edit.chunk","type":"ar_delta","delta":"A close-up product photo...","index":0,"created":1701234567,"model":"tencent/HunyuanImage-3.0-Instruct"}
+```
+
+Example final image event:
+
+```text
+data: {"object":"image.edit.chunk","type":"image","data":[{"b64_json":"<base64-encoded PNG>","url":null,"revised_prompt":null}],"output_format":"png","size":"1024x1024","created":1701234567,"model":"tencent/HunyuanImage-3.0-Instruct"}
+```
+
+Terminal event:
+
+```text
+data: [DONE]
+```
+
+If the engine fails after the SSE response has started, the stream emits an
+error chunk followed by `[DONE]`:
+
+```text
+data: {"object":"error","created":1701234567,"model":"tencent/HunyuanImage-3.0-Instruct","error":{"message":"<error message>","type":"server_error","code":500}}

+# Videos API
+
+vLLM-Omni provides an OpenAI-compatible video generation API for diffusion
+video models. The API supports asynchronous video jobs through `/v1/videos` and
+a synchronous benchmark-oriented endpoint through `/v1/videos/sync`.
+
+Each server instance runs a single model specified at startup with
+`vllm serve <model> --omni`.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Start the Server
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Wan-AI/Wan2.2-T2V-A14B-Diffusers --omni --port 8091
+```
+
+### Create a Video Job
+
+```bash
+create_response=$(curl -s http://localhost:8091/v1/videos \
+  -F "prompt=A cinematic tracking shot of a mountain lake at sunrise" \
+  -F "width=1280" \
+  -F "height=720" \
+  -F "num_frames=80" \
+  -F "fps=16" \
+  -F "num_inference_steps=40")
+
+video_id=$(echo "${create_response}" | jq -r '.id')
+```
+
+### Poll and Download
+
+```bash
+curl -s "http://localhost:8091/v1/videos/${video_id}" | jq .
+curl -L "http://localhost:8091/v1/videos/${video_id}/content" -o output.mp4
+```

+# Production Metrics
+
+vLLM-Omni exposes Prometheus metrics via the `/metrics` endpoint on the OpenAI-compatible API server. This page covers the text and audio surface; diffusion / image / video metrics are tracked in a follow-up PR.
+
+```bash
+vllm-omni serve Qwen/Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct --port 8000 --log-stats
+curl http://localhost:8000/metrics
+```
+
+**`--log-stats` is required to populate metric data.** Without the flag, the endpoint still returns `200 OK` but the upstream `vllm:*` wrap is not registered at all, and the 15 `vllm:omni_*` families are registered as placeholders with no data written to them. This keeps the runtime cost essentially zero for deployments that don't need monitoring. With the flag, all ~80 families populate.
+
+## Metric Namespaces
+
+| Prefix | Source | Present when |
+|--------|--------|--------------|
+| `vllm:omni_` | vLLM-Omni orchestrator / audio modality / cross-stage transfer | Pipeline-dependent |
+| `vllm:` | Upstream vLLM engine, wrapped by `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` to expose `{stage, replica}` | Pipeline includes an LLM (AR) stage |
+| `http_` / `process_` | Uvicorn / Python runtime | Always |
+
+## Pipeline-Level Metrics (`vllm:omni_`)
+
+Defined in `vllm_omni/metrics/prometheus.py`. Track request lifecycle across the full multi-stage pipeline.
+
+### Request counts
+
+| Metric | Type | Labels | Description |
+|--------|------|--------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_num_requests_running` | Gauge | `model_name` | Pipeline-global in-flight requests (dispatched to engine, not yet finalized) |
+| `vllm:omni_num_requests_waiting` | Gauge | `model_name` | Requests waiting in the Orchestrator queue |
+| `vllm:omni_requests_success_total` | Counter | `model_name`, `finished_reason` | Total requests by completion reason. `finished_reason` ∈ {`stop`, `length`, `abort`, ...} mirroring upstream `vllm:request_success_total`; aborts cover client disconnect / cancellation paths in addition to upstream `FinishReason.ABORT` |
+
+### Latency
+
+| Metric | Type | Labels | Description |
+|--------|------|--------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_e2e_request_latency_s` | Histogram | `model_name` | Pipeline-global end-to-end request latency in seconds |
+
+## Audio Modality Metrics (`vllm:omni_`)
+
+Emitted at request finalize, except for `audio_ttfp_s` (streaming-hook at the first audio packet) and `audio_underrun_s` / `audio_continuity_ok_total` (streaming finalize, after the chunk stream is exhausted). All carry `{model_name, stage, replica}` plus the listed extra label.
+
+| Metric | Type | Extra label | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_audio_ttfp_s` | Histogram | — | Time from request arrival to first audio packet/frame |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_duration_s` | Histogram | — | Audio content duration (`audio_frames / sample_rate`) |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_rtf` | Histogram | — | Real-time factor (`stage_gen_time_s / audio_duration_s`); streaming TTS SLO red line `< 1`; uses `RTF_BUCKETS` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_frames_total` | Counter | — | Cumulative audio frame count; throughput via `rate()` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_underrun_s` | Histogram | — | Per-request worst-case player deficit; `> 0` indicates listener heard silent gaps |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_continuity_ok_total` | Counter | `threshold_ms` | Incremented when the request's worst underrun stayed below `threshold_ms` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_skipped_requests_total` | Counter | `reason` | Silent-loss counter — code2wav rejected malformed codec input and returned `200 OK` with empty audio |
+
+The continuity math comes from `vllm_omni/benchmarks/audio_continuity.py::compute_continuity_stats` so the server-side observation aligns with the bench-side definition.
+
+## Cross-Stage Transfer Metrics (`vllm:omni_`)
+
+Per-physical-transfer histograms tracking the data hop between adjacent stages. Labels `{model_name, from_stage, from_replica, to_stage, to_replica}` let dashboards attribute latency to specific replica edges. `from_replica` / `to_replica` are resolved from the orchestrator's sticky-routing binding (`stage_pool.get_bound_replica_id(request_id)`), so no extra plumbing through `TransferEdgeStats` is needed.
+
+| Metric | Type | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_size_bytes` | Histogram | Per-transfer payload size in bytes |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_tx_s` | Histogram | Sender-side time (serialize + submit to connector) |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_rx_s` | Histogram | Receiver-side time (recv + deserialize) |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_in_flight_s` | Histogram | Network in-flight time (TX done → RX recv start) |
+
+## vLLM Engine Metrics (`vllm:`)
+
+When the pipeline includes an LLM stage, the upstream vLLM engine exposes its full set of ~37 metric families under the `vllm:` prefix.
+
+vLLM-Omni wraps the upstream `vllm.v1.metrics.loggers.PrometheusStatLogger` with `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` so that the original `engine` single label is reshaped into `stage` + `replica`. Every `vllm:*` family — TTFT, ITL, TPOT, e2e latency, KV cache usage, scheduler running/waiting, request success counts, etc. — therefore gains per-`(stage, replica)` visibility automatically. No omni-side duplicate is needed for the text path.
+
+```text
+# Before wrap:
+vllm:num_requests_running{model_name="...", engine="1"}              3.0
+
+# After wrap:
+vllm:num_requests_running{model_name="...", stage="1", replica="0"}  2.0
+vllm:num_requests_running{model_name="...", stage="1", replica="1"}  1.0
+```
+
+For the full list of upstream metrics, see [the vLLM docs](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/main/docs/usage/metrics.md).
+
+## Metric Availability by Pipeline Type
+
+| Metric group | Multi-stage LLM (Qwen3-Omni) |
+|---|---|
+| `vllm:omni_` request tracking + latency | With `--log-stats` |
+| `vllm:omni_` audio modality | With `--log-stats`, if pipeline has a talker stage |
+| `vllm:omni_` transfer | With `--log-stats`, if pipeline has ≥ 2 stages |
+| `vllm:` engine metrics (per `(stage, replica)`) | With `--log-stats` |
+| `vllm:` MFU metrics | With `--log-stats --enable-mfu-metrics` |
+
+## Naming Convention
+
+- All time-bearing metrics use the `_s` suffix (values in seconds). Buckets are `SECONDS_BUCKETS` for e2e / generation-style values and `SECONDS_FAST_BUCKETS` (1 ms → 60 s) for the fine-grained transfer and audio-underrun values.
+- Counters use the `_total` suffix (auto-appended by `prometheus_client`).
+- Sizes use the `_bytes` suffix.
+- All omni-specific families are prefixed `vllm:omni_`. The upstream `unregister_vllm_metrics()` function is monkey-patched (see `vllm_omni/patch.py`) to a scoped version that still strips upstream `vllm:*` collectors so multi-engine init within one process does not crash on duplicate registration, but preserves anything prefixed `vllm:omni_` / `vllm_omni`.
+- Text and audio first-output use distinct families (`vllm:time_to_first_token_seconds` reused from upstream for text; `vllm:omni_audio_ttfp_s` for audio) rather than a single metric with a `modality` label.

 # Diffusion Attention Backends

+This document describes the diffusion attention backends available in vLLM-Omni, how to select them globally and per-role, the per-platform defaults, and how to use SageAttention.
 
 ## Overview
 
-Diffusion attention backend selection is controlled by the `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` environment variable and resolved in `vllm_omni.diffusion.attention.selector`.
+Diffusion attention backend selection is resolved in `vllm_omni.diffusion.attention.selector`. It looks up the backend from a structured `AttentionConfig` carried on `OmniDiffusionConfig` and falls back to the platform default when nothing is configured.
 
-This backend is used by diffusion attention layers such as the DiT attention in video and image generation models.
+This backend is used by diffusion attention layers such as the DiT attention in video and image generation models. It does **not** affect autoregressive (LLM) attention paths — those go through vLLM's own attention backend selector.
 
-On CUDA, the practical choices today are:
-
-- `FLASH_ATTN`: FlashAttention backend. This is the default on supported CUDA systems when FlashAttention is installed.
-- `TORCH_SDPA`: PyTorch `scaled_dot_product_attention`.
-- `SAGE_ATTN`: SageAttention backend, if `sageattention` is installed.
-
-If `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` is unset, vLLM-Omni asks the current platform to choose the default backend. On CUDA, that normally means `FLASH_ATTN` when available, otherwise `TORCH_SDPA`.
+The full set of backends and their platform defaults is in the **Backend Options** and **Platform Defaults** sections below. If no attention backend is configured, vLLM-Omni asks the current platform to choose the default.
 
 ## Backend Options
 
 | Value | Notes |
 |---|---|
-| `FLASH_ATTN` | Default on CUDA when FlashAttention is available. Good default for most diffusion workloads. |
-| `TORCH_SDPA` | Most conservative fallback. Useful for debugging or compatibility. |
-| `SAGE_ATTN` | Requires `sageattention`. Can improve performance on some workloads, but output quality must be validated model-by-model. |
+| `FLASH_ATTN` | Wraps FlashAttention 2. Default on Hopper / Ada / Ampere when `flash-attn` is installed. |
+| `CUDNN_ATTN` | Pins `sdpa_kernel([CUDNN_ATTENTION])`. Default on Blackwell (sm_10x / sm_12x) with cuDNN ≥ 9.5. Wins on mask-heavy DiTs (HunyuanVideo-1.5: 2× e2e vs SDPA). |
+| `FLASHINFER_ATTN` | Calls FlashInfer's dense `single_prefill_with_kv_cache` directly with `custom_mask` for non-causal masked attention. Used as Blackwell fallback when cuDNN is unavailable. Requires `flashinfer`. |
+| `TORCH_SDPA` | PyTorch `scaled_dot_product_attention` with the default backend dispatcher. Most conservative; always available. |
+| `SAGE_ATTN` | SageAttention 2.2 — INT8-quantized attention with FP16 accumulation. Lossy but typically visually indistinguishable on diffusion outputs. Requires `sageattention`. |
+| `SAGE_ATTN_3` | Requires `sageattn3` from `SageAttention/sageattention3_blackwell`. CUDA only, intended for Blackwell GPUs, with GQA/MQA requests falling back to PyTorch SDPA. |
 
-## Selection Priority
 
-Diffusion attention backend selection follows this order:
+## Configuration
 
-1. `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND`
-2. Platform default
+Diffusion attention backends can be configured three ways, in priority order:
 
-Example:
+1. **`--diffusion-attention-config`** — structured per-role config (highest priority).
+2. **`--diffusion-attention-backend` / `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` env var** — global shorthand that sets the default backend.
+3. **Platform default** — used when nothing is configured.
+
+`--diffusion-attention-backend` is shorthand for `--diffusion-attention-config.default.backend`. It may be combined with `--diffusion-attention-config.per_role.*` overrides, but is mutually exclusive with `--diffusion-attention-config.default.backend`.
+
+### Global default
+
+Set the default backend for every diffusion attention layer:
 
 ```bash
+# CLI flag
+vllm-omni serve <model> --diffusion-attention-backend SAGE_ATTN
+
+# Environment variable (also recognized for backwards compatibility)
 export DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND=SAGE_ATTN
 ```
 
+### Per-role configuration
+
+Roles are free-form strings declared by each diffusion model. The two common categories are `"self"` and `"cross"`; model-specific roles (e.g. `"ltx2.audio_to_video"`) may also be declared. A role string is matched in this order:
+
+1. Exact `per_role[role]` match
+2. `per_role[role_category]` fallback (e.g. `"ltx2.audio_to_video"` → `"cross"`)
+3. `default`
+4. Platform default
+
+Use vLLM-style dotted flags or one JSON blob:
+
+```bash
+# Dotted flags
+vllm-omni serve <model> \
+    --diffusion-attention-config.default.backend FLASH_ATTN \
+    --diffusion-attention-config.per_role.cross.backend TORCH_SDPA
+
+# JSON
+vllm-omni serve <model> \
+    --diffusion-attention-config '{"default":{"backend":"FLASH_ATTN"},"per_role":{"cross":{"backend":"TORCH_SDPA"}}}'
+```
+
+Backends may also accept backend-specific parameters via `extra`:
+
+```bash
+--diffusion-attention-config.per_role.self.backend SPARSE_BLOCK \
+--diffusion-attention-config.per_role.self.extra.block_size 128
+```
+
+### Programmatic API
+
+When constructing `OmniDiffusionConfig` directly:
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.data import AttentionConfig, AttentionSpec, OmniDiffusionConfig
+
+config = OmniDiffusionConfig(
+    attention_config=AttentionConfig(
+        default=AttentionSpec(backend="FLASH_ATTN"),
+        per_role={
+            "cross": AttentionSpec(backend="TORCH_SDPA"),
+        },
+    ),
+    ...,
+)
+```
+
+A plain dict is also accepted and normalized to `AttentionConfig`.
+
+## Platform Defaults
+
+### Blackwell (sm_100 / sm_103 / sm_120 / sm_121)
+
+Auto-route preference, in order:
+
+1. `CUDNN_ATTN` — when cuDNN ≥ 9.5 is available (ships in PyTorch 2.5+ wheels)
+2. `FLASHINFER_ATTN` — when `flashinfer` is installed but cuDNN < 9.5
+3. `FLASH_ATTN` — when `flash-attn` is installed with the Blackwell CUTE kernel
+4. `TORCH_SDPA` — last resort
+
+The startup log line `Defaulting to diffusion attention backend CUDNN_ATTN (Blackwell sm_120, cuDNN 91002)` confirms the route.
+
+**Why CUDNN_ATTN by default**: on mask-heavy diffusion models (HunyuanVideo-1.5, Qwen-Image), cuDNN's pinned FMHA kernel sidesteps a PyTorch SDPA dispatch quirk where the unpinned dispatcher picks `EFFICIENT_ATTENTION` (~25 ms) for masked calls instead of cuDNN (~11 ms). The pin gives 2× e2e on HV-1.5 with no regression on lighter models.
+
+### Hopper (sm_90) / Ada (sm_89) / Ampere (sm_80–sm_86)
+
+Auto-route preference:
+
+1. `FLASH_ATTN` — when `flash-attn` is installed
+2. `TORCH_SDPA` — fallback
+
+`CUDNN_ATTN` and `FLASHINFER_ATTN` are still selectable via env var on these GPUs but are not in the auto-route — FlashAttention 2 is the well-tuned path on pre-Blackwell hardware.
+
+## End-to-End Benchmark (BF16, sm_120 RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell)
+
+Same prompt and seed across runs. `Total generation time` from `text_to_video.py` / `text_to_image.py`.

+## Known Limitations
+
+### LTX-2.0: `CUDNN_ATTN` crashes under torch.compile
+
+LTX-2's audio attention has a symbolic head_dim under torch.compile tracing. cuDNN's SDPA backend selector rejects symbolic dims and Dynamo aborts compilation. Tracked in [#3121](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/3121).
+
+**Workaround**: explicitly select `FLASHINFER_ATTN` or `TORCH_SDPA` for LTX-2.0:
+
+```bash
+DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND=FLASHINFER_ATTN python examples/offline_inference/text_to_video/text_to_video.py \
+    --model Lightricks/LTX-2 ...
+```
+
+### FA4 not yet integrated
+
+FlashAttention-4 (released March 2026) targets Blackwell natively and reportedly beats cuDNN by ~20% on B200. As of this writing the `flash-attn-4 4.0.0b10` wheel crashes with `AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '_trait'` during JIT on sm_120. Not yet wired into vLLM-Omni; revisit when stable lands.
+
+## Choosing a Backend Manually
+
+### When to override the default
+
+- **Quality validation**: compare a new backend against `TORCH_SDPA` as the reference, since SDPA's default dispatcher is the most extensively tested.
+- **Lossy speedup hunting**: try `SAGE_ATTN` (INT8 quantized) on diffusion outputs — typically indistinguishable visually but always validate.
+- **Workaround for known issues**: see Known Limitations above.
+
+### Verifying which backend is in use
+
+The startup log prints one of:
+
+```
+Using diffusion attention backend 'CUDNN_ATTN'           # explicit override
+Defaulting to diffusion attention backend CUDNN_ATTN ... # auto-route
+Defaulting to diffusion attention backend SDPA           # nothing else available
+```
+
+If you don't see one of these, the model didn't reach diffusion stage init — check earlier logs for failures.

-# Diffusion Multi-Replica Serving
-
-Diffusion stages can be replicated in online serving by setting `runtime.num_replicas` on a `stage_type: diffusion` stage. Each replica owns an independent diffusion engine process and receives requests through round-robin routing with request affinity.
-
-## When to Use
-
-Use multi-replica serving when one diffusion process does not saturate the available GPUs, or when you want higher request throughput for many independent image/video generation requests. It improves concurrency throughput; it does not make a single request faster.
-
-## Configuration
-
-A replica consumes the devices required by that diffusion stage. For single-device diffusion pipelines, set `runtime.devices` to one device per replica:
-
-```yaml
-stages:
-  - stage_id: 0
-    stage_type: diffusion
-    runtime:
-      devices: "0,1,2,3"
-      num_replicas: 4
-    engine_args:
-      model: Qwen/Qwen-Image
-      parallel_config:
-        world_size: 1
-```
-
-For multi-device diffusion pipelines, `parallel_config.world_size` is treated as the number of devices per replica. For example, four 2-GPU replicas need eight devices:
-
-```yaml
-stages:
-  - stage_id: 0
-    stage_type: diffusion
-    runtime:
-      devices: "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7"
-      num_replicas: 4
-    engine_args:
-      model: Wan-AI/Wan2.2-T2V-A14B-Diffusers
-      parallel_config:
-        world_size: 2
-```
-
-The runtime splits the device list into contiguous chunks per replica. With the second example, replica 0 uses `0,1`, replica 1 uses `2,3`, replica 2 uses `4,5`, and replica 3 uses `6,7`.
-
-## Serving
-
-Start the server with the stage config:
-
-```bash
-vllm serve Qwen/Qwen-Image \
-  --omni \
-  --port 8099 \
-  --stage-configs-path /path/to/diffusion_multi_replica.yaml
-```
-
-Then send normal OpenAI-compatible diffusion chat requests. The orchestrator routes new requests across replicas and keeps updates/abort calls on the same replica for each request.
-
-## Benchmarking
-
-Benchmark each replica count by changing `runtime.num_replicas` and `runtime.devices`, restarting the server, then running:
-
-```bash
-python benchmarks/diffusion/diffusion_benchmark_serving.py \
-  --base-url http://localhost:8099 \
-  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image \
-  --task t2i \
-  --dataset random \
-  --num-prompts 8 \
-  --request-rate inf \
-  --num-inference-steps 2 \
-  --width 256 --height 256 \
-  --output-file diffusion_replica_4.json
-```
-
-For a quick scaling sweep, test `num_replicas` values `1`, `2`, `3`, and `4` with the same prompt count and generation parameters. Compare throughput and end-to-end latency from the JSON outputs.
-
-## Notes and Limitations
-
-- Multi-replica serving is currently supported for diffusion stages. Single-stage mode still rejects non-diffusion replicas.
-- `runtime.devices` must provide exactly `num_replicas * devices_per_replica` devices.
-- Request-level latency may stay similar or slightly increase because each request still runs on one replica.
-- Throughput improves only when enough concurrent requests are issued and each replica has enough GPU memory.
