Description

Fixes #18156.

The KV-cache-aware router scores workers by recomputing a request's block hashes and matching them against the hashes workers publish in KV cache events. KvCacheAwareServerState.matched_tokens walks that list and breaks on the first miss, so a first-block mismatch makes match_count 0 for the whole request: cache-aware routing silently degrades to load balancing, with no error and no log line.

The router dropped the request's LoRA id. The worker keys reuse by it: V2 seeds the radix root with ReuseScope(lora_id=...), and the V1 event hash (EventManager::hashV1BlockKey) mixes it into every block key. Nothing under tensorrt_llm/serve/ passed it, so every LoRA request scored zero matches, and because all adapters hashed identically, the router's own prefix accounting collided adapters with one another.

This change adds _get_request_lora_id next to _get_request_cache_salt and threads the adapter id through _routing_key_sync, the _tokenize_and_compute_block_hashes* helpers, _compute_block_hashes, block_key_hasher and the V2 ReuseScope, keeping main's cache_salt: Optional[str] signatures. The native BlockKey binding carries the LoRA id, so LoRA requests stay on the native BlockKeyHasher fast path; only a salt still falls back to the Python hasher. The native BlockKey and ReuseScope take the id as a uint64, so the router reduces it modulo 2**64, as hash_v1_block_key already does, instead of raising mid-routing. The worker rejects an out-of-range id itself.

The salt-derivation half of the earlier revision is dropped: #20048 replaced that design with string salts.

Test Coverage

tests/unittest/disaggregated/test_router.py:

  • test_router_block_hashes_round_trip_worker_event_hashes: {no salt, string salt} x {no LoRA, LoRA}, all three hash algorithms. The V2 side chains sequence_to_blockchain_keys over the worker's ReuseScope; the V1 side chains KVCacheEventManager._hash_block_key with the scope's LoRA id and KVCacheEventManager._hash_cache_salt(salt), the same inputs EventManager::v1HashFromBlock uses.
  • test_routing_key_sync_carries_lora_and_salt_to_block_hashes: drives _routing_key_sync itself for a LoRA request, with and without a salt, so dropping the id at that call site fails.
  • test_get_request_lora_id_extraction: absent and present adapter ids.
  • test_native_block_key_hasher_matches_python_v1_with_lora: native vs Python V1 parity for LoRA ids across the uint64 boundary.
  • test_block_hashes_wrap_out_of_range_lora_id: all three algorithms reduce an out-of-range id instead of raising.
  • test_block_key_hasher_python_fallback_only_for_cache_salt: a LoRA-only request stays on the native hasher.

Run on an NVIDIA A40 against the tensorrt_llm==1.4.0rc2.post1 wheel (source commit 43f8f70da, which includes #20048) with these commits applied over it, using the repo's conftest:

wheel router,  wheel test file:            94 passed
wheel router,  this PR's test file:        22 failed, 94 passed
this PR,       this PR's test file:       115 passed
this PR without the router.py call site:    3 failed (the routing_key_sync tests)

Each count also includes test_gpt_oss_router_tokens_match_chat_harmony_server_input, which needs LLM_MODELS_ROOT and fails identically in every run. test_coordinator_worker, test_disagg_openai_client, test_openai_disagg_service and test_kv_cache_event_manager give the same counts with and without this change.

Walkthrough

The router now includes LoRA adapter IDs in KV-cache hashing. Cache-salt IDs use SHA-256 derivation shared with KVCacheManagerV2. Tests compare router hashes with worker-side hashes across supported algorithms and request options.

Changes

KV cache routing consistency

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared cache-salt derivation
tensorrt_llm/runtime/kv_cache_hash.py, tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/kv_cache/kv_cache_manager_v2.py, tensorrt_llm/inputs/utils.py, tests/unittest/disaggregated/test_router.py
get_cache_salt_id now uses the first eight bytes of a SHA-256 digest. KVCacheManagerV2 uses this helper, and the duplicate helper in inputs/utils.py is removed. The tests compare the shared derivation with the engine’s salt derivation.
LoRA-aware router hashing
tensorrt_llm/serve/router.py, tensorrt_llm/serve/router_utils.py
The router extracts the request LoRA ID and passes it through V1 and V2 block hashing. V2 reuse scopes include the masked LoRA ID.
Salt and LoRA hash validation
tests/unittest/disaggregated/test_router.py
Tests compare router hashes with worker-side hashes across V1, V2, and truncated V2, with optional cache salts and LoRA IDs.

The router now carries LoRA IDs into its hashes. One test's docstring overstates that out-of-range IDs are accepted by the worker. This is a minor test-accuracy issue that should be fixed or clarified, and it does not block the change.

Explanation

The changed production files and tests relate to the router reuse-namespace keying in #18156. The shared salt helper removes duplicate derivation, the V2 delegation preserves the existing engine key space, and the documentation records the V1 limitation. No unrelated change is demonstrated.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The PR implements the hash-parity and propagation requirements in #18156. It carries lora_id through router hashing and ReuseScope, shares the V2 SHA-256 salt derivation, preserves the engine derivation path, and adds parity and propagation tests. However, #18156 requires skipping the native fast path when LoRA is set. block_key_hasher uses _NativeBlockKeyHasher when cache_salt_id is None, even when lora_task_id is set. The new test_block_key_hasher_python_fallback_only_for_cache_salt explicitly enforces this contrary behavior.

Resolution

When lora_task_id is set, route block_key_hasher through the Python hash_v1_block_key path, including for unsalted requests. Update the native-path test to require the LoRA fallback and retain parity coverage for the resulting hashes.

Pushed a follow-up commit for both review comments.

The call-site gap was the right catch: the round-trip test pinned _compute_block_hashes directly, so dropping either id from _routing_key_sync would not have failed anything. There is now a test that goes through _routing_key_sync itself, salted and unsalted, comparing its block_hashes_by_algo against the worker-side hashes for the same LoRA request, with a sensitivity assertion against what the same call site produces without the ids. New test functions are annotated -> None per CODING_GUIDELINES.

I also dropped the dict fallback in _get_request_lora_id: lora_request is a pydantic-validated LoRARequest on every request model that carries one, so that branch was unreachable and only its own unit test reached it.

One thing I should be explicit about: the earlier numbers in this PR came from a run against the 1.3.0rc24 wheel, but this new test I have only verified by reading the source (my box has no GPU and no compiled bindings, and the wheel predates the _routing_key_sync changes in this branch). Everything it touches was checked line by line against router.py and router_utils.py, and pre-commit passes, but I would not want that read as "I ran it". A ready label would put it through real CI.

Should we fix the v2 c++ manager instead?

There is no salt derivation in the V2 C++ manager to fix — it consumes an id that Python has already derived, so this line is the layer where the two disagreeing derivations actually live.

Tracing it: EventManager::hashV1BlockKey takes std::optional<std::uint64_t> cacheSaltId (eventManager.h:189, mixed at eventManager.cpp:588-590), ReuseScope on the C++ side holds std::optional<std::uint64_t> salt and its own comment says it mirrors Python's (blockRadixTree.h:50-59), and castReuseScope accepts None / ReuseScope / an int lora id / an object with lora_id and salt — never a string (nanobind/batch_manager/kvCacheManagerV2.cpp:679-699). The only salt string under kv_cache_manager_v2/ is KVCacheStoredBlockData::cacheSalt (eventManager.h:88), which is event payload for consumers and is not read anywhere else in that file.

So str -> uint64 happens only in Python, and on main the two Python derivations disagree:

  • KVCacheManagerV2._derive_reuse_salt: sha256(salt).digest()[:8], little-endian
  • kv_cache_hash.get_cache_salt_id: blake3(salt).digest(8), little-endian

This PR keeps the engine's bytes exactly and moves the router onto them, so no id a running worker has already published changes.

If you meant the V1 C++ hasher, then I agree there is a real defect there, but it is a different and breaking one. blockKey.cpp:367-370 mixes std::hash<std::string>{}(cacheSalt) straight into the root block hash. That is implementation-defined, so the router cannot reproduce it from Python at all and salted requests can never match a V1 worker — which is the limitation I documented on get_cache_salt_id rather than worked around. Fixing it means changing every published V1 block hash, so it wants its own PR and its own compatibility discussion. Happy to take that one if you want it.

One thing worth flagging either way: the docstring on _derive_reuse_salt on main claims the derivation "matches C++ blockKey hashing on cacheSalt". It does not, and never did — that is sha256-truncated on one side and std::hash on the other. That stale comment is a plausible origin for this exact confusion, and the PR replaces it with what the code actually does.

Separately, whenever you have a moment: this PR has had no CI at all, since /bot run needs someone on your side. I would rather have it red and fix it than merged unrun.

The caveat I left on the follow-up commit is now cleared. test_routing_key_sync_carries_lora_and_salt_to_block_hashes has been executed, not just read: A6000, wheel 1.3.0rc24, --noconftest.

-k routing_key_sync full test_router.py
pristine library 2 failed, 91 deselected 8 failed, 85 passed
patched library 2 passed, 91 deselected 93 passed

The pre-fix failure is not a near miss. Router and worker produce disjoint keys for the same LoRA request:

router  d640331a8566b89199962bb4552f386a57361738fef5a92ac3d8a5c7bfbb4231 ...
worker  08b6fad376be32e79fa575f56037ce617df32f5349a6931826a0df9248353bfc ...

Every block differs, so a LoRA request scores zero matches against a worker that is holding exactly its blocks. That is the behaviour reported in #18156.

Method note, since this is not a clean checkout: the newest published wheel is still 1.3.0rc24 while this branch sits on rc25-era main, so the four changed Python files are copied over the installed wheel and _derive_reuse_salt is applied as a one-function edit rather than a whole-file swap (the rc25 kv_cache_manager_v2.py imports uses_vswa_kv_cache_layout, which rc24 does not have). --noconftest for the same reason: tests/unittest/conftest.py imports tensorrt_llm.executor.ray, also post-rc24. The 8 pre-fix failures are the 6 from the original round plus the 2 new parametrisations.

This PR still has had no CI run at all, so everything above is my own bench rather than yours.

Approving — the comments below are optional touch-ups, not blockers.

Verified the id chain end to end for this fix: LoRARequest.adapter_id → LoraConfig(task_id=...) (executor/base_worker.py:350) → LlmRequest.lora_task_id (llm_request.py:1611) → ReuseScope.lora_id, and the C++ BlockKeyHasher mixes loraTaskId in the same position/way as hash_v1_block_key, so the router-side ids now line up with both V1 and V2 workers. Both routing entry points (get_next_server and the coordinator's routing_key) funnel through _routing_key_sync, so the fix covers the whole path.

Two things worth addressing beyond the inline comments:

  1. Removing tensorrt_llm.inputs.utils.get_cache_salt_id deletes an importable, non-underscored symbol. It has no in-tree callers, but anything outside the repo importing it breaks, and the surviving runtime.kv_cache_hash.get_cache_salt_id returns a different value than the removed one did (sha256 vs blake3). Worth a release-note line rather than a silent removal.

  2. Description hygiene: it says test_get_request_lora_id_extraction "covers the object and dict request shapes", but the test only exercises a CompletionRequest and a SimpleNamespace — _get_request_lora_id uses getattr only, so a dict-shaped request would silently return None. Either drop the claim or add the dict case and support it (if a dict-shaped request can actually reach the router, that is a real gap; if not, the docstring/description shouldn't imply it).

Otherwise the round-trip test that drives the real KVCacheEventManager._v1_hash_from_radix_block against the router's recomputation is the right shape for this class of bug — it's the check that would have caught both divergences.

Notes on lines outside the diff:

  • tensorrt_llm/serve/router_utils.py:387: _tokenize_and_compute_block_hashes_with_salt (and _tokenize_and_compute_block_hashes above it) have no callers anywhere in tensorrt_llm/ — _routing_key_sync uses the _by_algo variant. Threading lora_task_id through them adds a second signature that has to be kept in sync with the live one for no benefit. Prefer deleting both dead helpers in this PR instead of extending them.

The native fast path doesn't need to be disabled for LoRA — only for the salt. The nanobind BlockKey binding exposes a two-arg constructor BlockKey(tokens, lora_task_id=...) (cpp/tensorrt_llm/nanobind/batch_manager/kvCacheManager.cpp:412-414, backing blockKey.h:56), and BlockKeyHasher mixes loraTaskId in exactly the position hash_v1_block_key does, so the two stay bit-exact.

As written, every block of every LoRA request in the routing hot path now takes the per-token Python loop — and LoRA is the main case this PR exists to fix, so it's not the rare opt-in the comment describes. Suggest:

if cache_salt_id is None:
    return _NativeBlockKeyHasher.hash(_NativeBlockKey(token_ids, lora_task_id), parent)

and a test asserting the native and Python paths agree for a non-None lora_task_id, so the equivalence is pinned rather than assumed.

You were right, and I should have acted on this when you raised it. The binding takes lora_task_id, and BlockKeyHasher::hash mixes loraTaskId after the tokens with hash64Mix, the same position hash_v1_block_key uses, so only the salt needs the Python loop. Done in 991de58: with no salt, block_key_hasher now hashes BlockKey(token_ids, lora_task_id=...) natively.

One detail I added: LoRARequest.lora_int_id is not range-checked and arrives on the request (CompletionRequest.lora_request), and nanobind raises on a negative or wider-than-64-bit int where the Python path wraps it. The id is masked to 64 bits before the native call, so both paths give the same hash for every input instead of a bad adapter id turning into an exception in the routing path.

Two new tests: test_native_block_key_hasher_matches_python_v1_with_lora checks the native path against hash_v1_block_key for 0, 7, 2**32+3, 2**63, 2**64-1, 2**64+5 and -1, and test_block_key_hasher_python_fallback_only_for_cache_salt fails if a LoRA-only request ever reaches the Python loop again. Both pass against the rc29 bindings.

import hashlib can move to module scope now. The function-local import was there because blake3 is an optional third-party dependency; hashlib is stdlib and already imported all over the process, so the deferral just costs a dict lookup per call on a per-request path.

Rebased onto main a67ede16f; the branch had gone conflicting. Head is now 1e91ef4f0 and the PR is mergeable again. Both approvals survived the force-push.

The conflict was import-only. kv_cache_manager_v2.py moved to _torch/pyexecutor/kv_cache/, and upstream added the logger and Mapping imports directly above the runtime.kv_cache_hash import this PR widens. Kept both sides. git range-diff bd25b31d7~2..bd25b31d7 a67ede16f..1e91ef4f0 reports the test commit as identical and the fix commit as differing only in that import block and the file path, so what was approved is what is on the branch:

  • _derive_reuse_salt still delegates to kv_cache_hash.get_cache_salt_id instead of re-deriving sha256 locally
  • the router still carries lora_task_id into _tokenize_and_compute_block_hashes_by_algo
  • the remaining blake3 in router.py is _content_affinity_key, which is unrelated to block keys and untouched here

One thing this PR has never had: a CI run. Only the DCO check has ever reported on it, so the approvals are standing on the GPU evidence I posted by hand rather than on pipeline results. Could someone with the permission kick off /bot run so the l0_cpu stage and the disaggregated router tests report here?

@lowsfer, @NVIDIA/trt-llm-kv-cache-manager-devs, this is waiting on the KV-cache-manager review that @mikeiovine delegated.

@brnguyen2 you traced the id chain end to end on this one, so you are the right person to ask about mechanics rather than the code.

This PR has two approvals and has still never had a CI run. DCO is the only check that has ever reported on it. I asked for /bot run a week ago and nothing picked it up, and looking at how PRs actually land here I think I asked for the wrong thing: the recently merged PRs are NVIDIA-authored and none of them needed that comment, so pipeline coverage looks automatic for internal PRs and absent for external ones rather than comment-triggered.

So, plainly: what is the path for an externally-authored PR to get pipeline coverage here? If it needs someone internal to queue it, I am happy to wait for whoever that is rather than pinging further. I mainly want to know whether this is sitting in a queue or waiting on something from me, because from the outside those two look identical.

State, unchanged since your review: rebased onto main a67ede16f, head 1e91ef4f0, mergeable, 201 commits behind main without conflicting. The GPU evidence in the thread is still the only verification this has, which is exactly why I would rather it not be the last word.

It was not. kv_cache_manager_v2.py moved to _torch/pyexecutor/kv_cache/, and when I rebased onto the move I kept the old path in three lazy imports: this one, and the ones in test_cache_salt_id_derivation_matches_worker_path and test_routing_key_sync_carries_lora_and_salt_to_block_hashes. The imports sit inside the test bodies, so collection still passed, but 7 test cases fail with ModuleNotFoundError when they run. I reproduced exactly that against the 1.3.0rc29 wheel. Fixed in e6eeb3c: all three now use tensorrt_llm._torch.pyexecutor.kv_cache.kv_cache_manager_v2, the path the rest of the suite uses, and all 7 run and pass (numbers in my comment below).

There is no wheel for current main, so the four commits were cherry-picked onto the wheel's own source commit (v1.3.0rc29, c76f4a8, the commit the wheel's metadata names; the five touched source files are byte-identical to the installed ones). They applied without conflicts and git range-diff shows all four identical to this branch. The patched files were installed over the wheel's copies and test_router.py was run with the repo's own conftest:

library test file result
rc29 as shipped rc29 87 passed
rc29 as shipped this PR 16 failed, 86 passed
this PR this PR 102 passed
this PR without e6eeb3c same 7 failed (ModuleNotFoundError), 95 passed

Nothing was skipped or deselected in any run. The second row is the new and re-pinned tests meeting the unfixed library. The last row isolates the import fix.

pre-commit run --files <changed files> passes. test_router.py is covered by l0_cpu.yml through unittest/disaggregated, so a pipeline run will exercise all of it, and this PR has not had one yet. @liji-nv, if the changes look right to you, could you trigger /bot run?

Rebased onto main f84a4ba7f. It had gone conflicting after #19154 removed the Python backend of KVCacheManagerV2, which changed three things under this PR, so there are two new commits on top of the four already reviewed:

  • router_utils.py: [None][refactor] BREAKING: Remove the Python backend of KVCacheManagerV2 #19154 deleted v2_sha256_block_hasher and moved both V2 algorithms onto sequence_to_blockchain_keys, still with ReuseScope(salt=cache_salt_id) and no lora_id, so the bug is live on main. The LoRA id now goes into that ReuseScope.
  • ReuseScope is now the C++ binding and its lora_id is a uint64, so an out-of-range adapter id would raise a TypeError on the V2 path while the V1 native path already wraps it. Both now share _to_uint64, with a test across all three algorithms (f9f2cef).
  • The round-trip test built its v1 worker hashes through the deleted Python _event_manager. It now chains KVCacheEventManager._hash_block_key, the C++ EventManager::hashV1BlockKey the worker calls per block, so the worker side is the engine's own code and the test stays CPU-only (bb5207d).

No wheel contains #19154 yet, so I tested on an L4 with the rc29 wheel, its source commit plus the router half of #19154, and these six commits; the three router files are byte-identical to this branch. 112 passed with the PR, 22 of those fail against the same library without it, and reverting only the uint64 wrap gives 4 V2 TypeErrors. Description updated.

@liji-nv the import you flagged is fixed and holds after the rebase. Could you take another look, and trigger /bot run if it looks right? This PR has not had a CI run yet. @lowsfer this now sits on top of #19154.

The worker's LoRA id is a uint64 on both the V1 ``BlockKey`` and the V2
``ReuseScope``, so an id outside [0, 2**64) must hash as its wrapped value
rather than make the native binding reject the request.

official nanobind documentation integer conversion Python int uint64_t negative overflow

💡 Result:

Nanobind’s docs don’t appear to spell out the `uint64_t` edge cases directly. The closest authoritative source is the **current `master` implementation**: its arithmetic caster routes unsigned 64-bit inputs through `load_u64`, and converts C++ unsigned 64-bit values back to Python with `PyLong_FromUnsignedLongLong`. ([raw.githubusercontent.com](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wjakob/nanobind/master/include/nanobind/nb_cast.h))

So the implementation is designed to handle the full `uint64_t` range. Whether a negative Python `int` or an integer larger than `2⁶⁴−1` is rejected—and the exact exception—is determined by `load_u64`; the cited header delegates that check, so it alone doesn’t establish those details. The source is `master`, not a version-specific release. The changelog notes that since nanobind 2.14.0, implicit integer-argument conversions require Python’s `__index__` protocol.

nanobind 2.9.0 nb_cast.h load_u64 uint64_t Python negative overflow

💡 Result:

In **nanobind 2.9.0**, `uint64_t` arguments are dispatched to `detail::load_u64()` by the arithmetic caster in `nb_cast.h`. That function delegates to `load_int()`, which uses Python’s unsigned-integer conversion (`PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLong` for a 64-bit value). A negative Python integer therefore **does not wrap to a `uint64_t`**: CPython reports an error, which nanobind clears, and the conversion returns `false`. ([raw.githubusercontent.com](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wjakob/nanobind/v2.9.0/include/nanobind/nb_cast.h))

The same path rejects values above `UINT64_MAX`. With ordinary function-argument conversion, a failed cast means the overload won’t accept the argument; exact exception behavior can depend on the calling context.

Do not document out-of-range IDs as worker-supported.

test_block_hashes_wrap_out_of_range_lora_id exercises only router hashing. The V2 worker passes the raw ID to the ReuseScope nanobind constructor, whose uint64_t conversion rejects negative and above-UINT64_MAX Python integers rather than wrapping them. Replace these cases with supported uint64 values, or add explicit worker-side normalization before testing wrapped values.

Fair on the docstring: it implied the worker hashes the wrapped id. It doesn't. The worker's LlmRequest binding takes lora_task_id as std::optional<uint64_t> and rejects an out-of-range id itself. The router reads lora_int_id from the client request before that, so the wrap only keeps the router's own native bindings from raising mid-routing; for in-range ids it is the identity. Reworded both docstrings in da00f5a, no code change. Keeping the out-of-range cases, since that router behavior is what they pin.

The LoRA part is correct and still needed on main: router and worker hashes agree for V1, V2 and V2_64, and both routing entry points go through _routing_key_sync. However, the branch now conflicts with main, and #20048 already replaced the cache-salt design with string salts, so the salt-derivation half should be dropped. Please rebase so it keeps only the LoRA plumbing on top of main's cache_salt: Optional[str] signatures, update the salt-dependent tests and the title, and then we can run CI.

#20048 supersedes this: get_cache_salt_id is deleted on main, V2 uses the raw string salt (ReuseScope(salt: str | None)), and V1 uses KVCacheEventManager._hash_cache_salt. Please drop the changes to this file and to _derive_reuse_salt. Carried over, ReuseScope(salt=<int>) raises a TypeError. Also watch for auto-merge leftovers: the get_cache_salt_id import in kv_cache_manager_v2.py and an unused import hashlib.

When resolving the conflict, keep main's _compute_block_hashes(..., cache_salt: Optional[str]) signature, add lora_task_id next to it, and use ReuseScope(lora_id=_to_uint64(lora_task_id), salt=cache_salt). main's body derives the V1 salt id from cache_salt, so keeping this branch's cache_salt_id parameter would make every V1 hash call fail with a NameError.

After the rebase this test no longer applies, since get_cache_salt_id is gone and _derive_reuse_salt returns a str, so please remove it. In the round-trip tests (L684, L751), build the worker scope with a string salt and pass KVCacheEventManager._hash_cache_salt(salt) as the V1 salt id.

…shes

The worker keys KV cache reuse by the request's LoRA task id: V2 seeds the radix root with ReuseScope(lora_id=...), and the V1 event hash mixes the same id into every block key. The router recomputed block hashes without it, so a LoRA request never matched the blocks its worker had published, and two adapters sending the same prompt collided on one prefix in the router's view. Read the adapter id from the request's lora_request and thread it through _routing_key_sync into both hash paths. LoRA-only requests stay on the native V1 hasher, whose BlockKey carries the task id.

Signed-off-by: Shifat Islam Santo <shifatislamsanto764@gmail.com>
…e hash bindings

The native BlockKey and ReuseScope bindings take the LoRA id as a uint64, so an adapter id outside [0, 2**64) would raise in the router's V1 native and V2 hash paths, while the Python hash_v1_block_key already reduces it modulo 2**64. Share that reduction through _to_uint64 on both native paths. The worker rejects such an id itself; the wrap only keeps routing from raising, and is the identity for in-range ids.

Signed-off-by: Shifat Islam Santo <shifatislamsanto764@gmail.com>
…worker's event hashes

Pin the router's block hashes against the hashes the worker publishes, over {no salt, string salt} x {no LoRA, LoRA} and all three hash algos. The V2 side chains sequence_to_blockchain_keys over the worker's ReuseScope; the V1 side chains KVCacheEventManager._hash_block_key with the scope's LoRA id and KVCacheEventManager._hash_cache_salt of its salt, the same inputs EventManager::v1HashFromBlock uses. A second test drives _routing_key_sync itself, so dropping the LoRA id from that call site fails even though _compute_block_hashes is correct. Also cover native vs Python V1 parity with LoRA ids, the uint64 wrap on every algo, and that only a cache salt leaves the native V1 hasher.

Thanks for the review. I rebased onto main (a4e0757a8) keeping only the LoRA plumbing, as three commits. _compute_block_hashes keeps main's cache_salt: Optional[str] and takes lora_task_id next to it; V2 builds ReuseScope(lora_id=_to_uint64(lora_task_id), salt=cache_salt), and V1 keeps main's KVCacheEventManager._hash_cache_salt salt id. The kv_cache_hash.py, _derive_reuse_salt and inputs/utils.py changes are gone, so the leftover imports you flagged are not present. In the tests, the salt-derivation test is removed, and both round-trip tests build the worker scope with a string salt and pass KVCacheEventManager._hash_cache_salt(salt) as the V1 salt id. Title and description now cover only the LoRA fix.

On an A40 against the 1.4.0rc2.post1 wheel, whose source already includes #20048, with these commits applied: 115 passed with the change, and the 21 new tests fail against the unfixed router. One existing test that needs LLM_MODELS_ROOT fails identically in every run. It is ready for /bot run.

@liji-nv the import-path issue from your Sep 29 review was fixed in the Sep 30 rebase. The test file now uses main's existing tensorrt_llm.runtime.kv_cache_manager_v2 import and adds no other path. Could you re-review, or dismiss the review if nothing else is open?

@bo-nv the Oct 30 rebase covers your Oct 23 points. The head (5d58e7834) still merges cleanly onto today's main (a545268cf), including #21176, and none of the three main commits that touched these files since then changes the hashing path. Could you trigger /bot run when you have a moment?
