should_stop_processingis local. Attention-DP routing can leave one rank with no active requests while another rank still has work. That rank returns from_prepare_and_schedule_batch()and breaks before_add_kv_cache_events(). The peer then enters the V2 eventallgatheron every remaining iteration. Flushing once before the break would only match one collective and would not prevent a later collective mismatch.Use an attention-DP stop vote and break only after every rank reports that it can stop.

Description
This PR changes where KV-cache events are flushed, so attention-DP ranks reach the event collective in the same order.
KV-cache events are records of cache changes. In the V2 buffered-event path, flushing these records performs an
allgather, which requires every participating rank to make the corresponding call—even if its local event list is empty.Previously,
_add_kv_cache_events()was called inside_process_previous_batch(). But the overlap loop only calls that helper conditionally:That condition can differ between ranks. For example, rank 0 may process its previous batch and enter the event
allgather, while rank 1 skips that branch. Their collective calls then become misaligned, potentially causing a hang.The PR removes event flushing from the helper and places it after the
if/else:Now both branches reach the same event-flushing point. Keeping it after batch processing also includes events generated by that batch’s resource updates.
There is one additional caller:
_consume_previous_batch_for_rebalance(). It previously received event flushing indirectly through the same helper. After removing that internal call, the PR explicitly restores it there:This explains one deletion and two additions: remove the call from the shared helper, place it at the common point in the normal overlap loop, and preserve it in the separate rebalance path.

git diff --checkpassed.PR Checklist
Dev Engineer Review
The working-tree diff changes import formatting in
py_executor.pyonly. It does not include the described KV-cache event-flush changes or their tests, so the intended behavior change is not present in this diff.QA Engineer Review
No test changes.
Per-File QA Perspective
tensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/py_executor.py: The diff reformats imports and makes no observable runtime behavior change. It does not provide code to verify overlap-loop or rebalance event flushing.
