The CP shared-KV allocator was still doing total-cache-sized CPU work in the scheduler hot path. That cannot be hidden by GPU overlap, so owner-lane allocation now maintains per-owner free/release buckets and consumes request-sized prefixes instead of rebuilding masks over the full free-page tensor on each request.\n\nThe benchmark was extended to isolate L1 stats, selection, and allocation costs, and the CPU layout tests now install a complete sgl_kernel stub before importing SGLang helpers so remote unit collection does not abort in native extension loading.\n\nConstraint: Allocator CPU work blocks scheduler progress and cannot overlap with GPU forward execution.\nConstraint: CPU unit tests must not load native sgl_kernel on remote images where the loader can SIGABRT.\nRejected: Keep contiguous-run search over full free_pages | still scales with cache capacity and measured multi-ms overhead.\nRejected: Treat remote collection abort as an environment-only issue | it prevented allocator regression coverage and was fixable with a test-local stub.\nConfidence: high\nScope-risk: moderate\nDirective: CP owner-lane allocation is bucket-based; do not reintroduce full free_pages scans on the hot path without benchmark evidence.\nTested: Local py_compile for touched files\nTested: Local benchmark unit test, 6 passed\nTested: Remote benchmark unit test, 6 passed\nTested: Remote test_alloc_pages_with_owners.py, 10 passed\nTested: Remote test_cp_shared_kv_layout.py, 27 passed\nTested: Remote production allocator microbench shows select/alloc p50 reduced from ms-scale to sub-ms scale\nNot-tested: Full ETE traffic run after allocator bucket change
Unit Tests
Component-level tests that do not launch a server or load model weights. Tests can use CPU or GPU — the key criterion is no server process.
Quick Start
- Find the source file under
python/sglang/srt/. - Create the corresponding test here, mirroring the source tree:
srt/mem_cache/radix_cache.py → unit/mem_cache/test_radix_cache.py srt/sampling/sampling_params.py → unit/sampling/test_sampling_params.py - Register for CI at the top of the file (after imports, before test classes):
from sglang.test.ci.ci_register import register_cpu_ci register_cpu_ci(est_time=5, suite="stage-a-test-cpu") # or: register_cuda_ci(est_time=10, suite="stage-b-test-1-gpu-small") - Run locally:
pytest test/registered/unit/ -v # all unit tests pytest test/registered/unit/mem_cache/ -v # one module - Run with coverage:
# summary pytest test/registered/unit/ --cov --cov-config=.coveragerc -v # PR incremental check (require ≥60% on changed lines) pytest test/registered/unit/ --cov --cov-config=.coveragerc --cov-report=xml diff-cover coverage.xml --compare-branch=origin/main --fail-under=60
Example
"""Unit tests for <module> — no server, no model loading."""
from sglang.test.ci.ci_register import register_cpu_ci
register_cpu_ci(est_time=5, suite="stage-a-test-cpu")
import unittest
from sglang.srt.<module> import TargetClass
from sglang.test.test_utils import CustomTestCase
class TestTargetClass(CustomTestCase):
def test_basic_behavior(self):
obj = TargetClass(...)
self.assertEqual(obj.method(), expected)
if __name__ == "__main__":
unittest.main()
Rules
- No
popen_launch_server()orEngine(...). - No model weight loading.
- Use
CustomTestCase(fromsglang.test.test_utils, adds CI retry). - Use
unittest.mockfor dependencies that are expensive to construct.
