CP shared KV materialization repeatedly rebuilt the same logical-page slot remaps and page inverse metadata for each layer. Cache the token and paged remap metadata on the forward batch so MLA KV, index K/scale, and prefetch paths can reuse the layer-independent mapping while still materializing layer-specific data through the existing tai/torch runtime paths. Constraint: Only mapping metadata is batch-scoped; dense KV/index contents remain layer-specific and are not reused. Rejected: Cache fully materialized dense KV/index buffers | would add large per-layer memory residency and invalidation complexity. Confidence: medium Scope-risk: moderate Directive: Do not assume this removes materialize or CP all-reduce cost; profile tai fallback logs and Nsight kernels before attributing E2E gains or losses.
