NSA FP8 CP shared-KV reuse must operate on packed page-slot rows, not bf16 compact rows. The change keeps current-only and partial-current reuse inside the page-aligned materialization contract, fails fast for non-page-aligned CP split inputs, and prevents FP8 FlashMLA-KV prefill from reaching incompatible in-seq CP metadata.
Constraint: NSA FP8 persistent MLA KV rows are packed 656-byte records and CP shared KV cache management is page-granular.\nConstraint: FlashMLA-KV prefill metadata is not CP-local after NSA in-seq splitting.\nRejected: Silently splice bf16 current rows into FP8 materialized cache | corrupts the packed cache layout.\nRejected: Keep FP8 FlashMLA-KV auto prefill under NSA CP | reaches num_splits shape errors after q-row splitting.\nConfidence: medium\nScope-risk: moderate\nDirective: Do not re-enable FP8 FlashMLA-KV prefill for NSA in-seq CP until metadata is rebuilt after CP splitting or made CP-local.\nTested: Local git diff --check and py_compile for touched SGLang files.\nTested: Remote g0034 related unit sweep recorded in docs: test_nsa_cp_utils.py, test_cp_shared_kv_layout.py, test_cp_shared_kv_runtime.py, test_cp_hicache_metadata.py passed.\nNot-tested: Full FP8 ETE startup and performance run after this commit.
