Summary
prefill_dp_launch_mode,decode_dp_launch_mode, andaggregated_dp_launch_modeoverrides for the vLLM backend.Dependency
This is a stacked follow-up to #90. PR #90 now contains only the global opt-in
dp_launch_mode: per_nodeimplementation; this PR's intended review diff is the top commit,feat(vllm): support per-role DP launch modes.Until #90 merges, GitHub will also show its prerequisite commit in this PR. After #90 lands, this branch will be rebased onto
mainso only the mixed-DP changes remain.Motivation
Some vLLM roles need one process per node so node-local DP ranks share a CUDA namespace, while another role may need independent per-GPU Dynamo workers. The override is process-topology flexibility; it does not claim either layout has an inherent request-ingest performance advantage.
Unset role overrides inherit the global
dp_launch_mode.Validation
