WalkthroughSender transfer handling now uses configurable worker threads, worker-affine result delivery, and a shared per-endpoint DEALER pool. KV and AUX writes have explicit admission and in-flight accounting, which informs task status and resource-drain checks. ChangesSender transfer handling

- Around line 2420-2428: Bound blocking sends for shared DEALERs with a finite
send timeout and treat timeout as failed delivery; reject new shared sends once
shutdown begins. Update shutdown to snapshot dealers under _shared_dealers_lock,
then wait for active sends and stop/close each dealer without holding that map
lock; retain teardown ownership for timed-out dealers rather than clearing and
skipping them.

Release the admitted-write count before reporting build failure. A full worker DEALER blocks here despite no submitted transfer, so cancellation and failure sweeps retain the request's KV pages indefinitely.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Fixed in 2759f79. On a build failure the admitted write is now released before fail() and the FAILED report, for both KV and AUX (the AUX path had the same pattern). Added test_unbuilt_write_releases_its_source_before_reporting_the_failure[kv|aux], which blocks the report send and checks the session no longer counts as transferring, and that the admission is released exactly once.

…er worker races Default the native KV transfer Sender to 4 worker threads and make the multi-worker sender path race-free: - Worker threads send only on their own thread-local DEALERs; the shared DEALERs used by the listener and caller threads are guarded by a dict lock plus a per-endpoint send lock. - Route every (request, peer) stream through one _worker_index() helper. - Make SendTaskBase fail()/complete() transitions atomic under task.lock, and never let complete() overwrite ERROR. - Outside ownership mode, admit KV writes with try_begin_unowned_write() so an ended slice is never reopened, and count in-flight KV/AUX writes so TxSession.resources_drained() stays False until the backend call returns. - Reject TRTLLM_KV_TRANSFER_NUM_THREADS values below 1. Signed-off-by: Chuang Zhu <111838961+chuangz0@users.noreply.github.com>
A shared DEALER blocks in send once its outgoing queue to a peer that stopped draining reaches SNDHWM. A listener stuck there kept its dealer lock forever, so Sender.shutdown() waited on that lock indefinitely while holding the dealer map lock, and threads that waited on the map lock created new dealers after shutdown cleared it. - ZMQMessenger accepts send_timeout_ms (SNDTIMEO). - Shared DEALERs time out after _SHARED_DEALER_SEND_TIMEOUT_MS (100 ms); a timed-out send raises RuntimeError, which callers already report as a failed delivery. - Shutdown closes the dealer map to new sends, snapshots it, releases the map lock, and stops each dealer under its own lock, so it never closes a socket during an active send. Signed-off-by: Chuang Zhu <111838961+chuangz0@users.noreply.github.com>
Outside ownership mode, a sender worker could admit a write after the executor had already seen the session as failed and drained: the worker checked the session status, another worker failed a sibling slice without session.lock, the executor's lock-free drain check passed, and the worker then admitted its write while close() freed the pages. AUX writes were counted unconditionally and hit the same window. - _LogicalOutcomes.admit_unless_ended() runs admission under the lock that commits the session's terminal outcome, so KV and AUX writes are either admitted before a failure or cancellation is visible, or refused with FAILED reported to the peer. - TxSession._fail_session() commits the terminal outcome before exposing the failure; set_exception and the missing-aux path use it. - Readability: _SharedDealer/_SharedDealerPool own their locking and shutdown, admission and refusal are separate named steps, and the write counter is named for what it tracks. - Trim tests that only restated implementation details; add tests for the KV and AUX admission races. Signed-off-by: Chuang Zhu <111838961+chuangz0@users.noreply.github.com>
Outside ownership mode, a KV or AUX write whose send request failed to build reported FAILED on the worker DEALER while still holding its write admission. That DEALER has no send timeout, so a peer that stopped draining kept the session from ever counting as drained and pinned its KV pages or aux slot. Release the admission before failing the task and reporting. Signed-off-by: Chuang Zhu <111838961+chuangz0@users.noreply.github.com>

When one context rank sends KV cache to several generation ranks, more native-transceiver sender worker threads improve transfer throughput, especially with
agent_bounce_buffer_enable=true. Several perf configs already setTRTLLM_KV_TRANSFER_NUM_THREADS=4. This PR makes 4 the default and fixes the races intensorrt_llm/_torch/disaggregation/native/transfer.pythat more than one sender worker exposes.Threading model (Sender)

_deliver_kv_to_agentwent out on the shared DEALERs that the listener and executor also use (the removedlegacy_sharedrouting). With several workers, frames from different threads could interleave._SharedDealerPool(one_SharedDealerper endpoint). The pool's lock covers lookup and first connect; each dealer's own lock covers its sends, so a send blocked toward one peer does not stall sends to other peers.task.status = TRANSFERRINGunconditionally, which could overwrite the ERROR that another peer's worker had just set. The request then stayed in TRANSFERRING forever and its KV blocks were never released.try_admit_write(), which refuses a task that has already ended.TxSession.resources_drained()treated "no TRANSFERRING task" as drained. With several workers, one peer's failure ends the task while another peer's NIXL write may still be reading the KV pages or the aux slot.try_admit_write/finish_write). The session counts as drained only when no admitted write is in flight.session.lock. The executor's lock-free drain check then passed, and the first worker admitted its write whileclose()freed the pages._LogicalOutcomes.admit_unless_ended()now runs admission under the lock that commits the session's terminal outcome. Every way of ending a session (SendTaskBase.fail,TxSession._fail_session,cancel_local) commits there before the failure is visible. A write is therefore either admitted before teardown can observe the ending, so the session does not count as drained, or refused with FAILED reported to the peer.SendTaskBase.complete()can no longer overwrite ERROR.fail()andcomplete()now change status undertask.lock.Sender.shutdown()cannot hang (CodeRabbit review).ZMQMessengeracceptssend_timeout_ms.
