[None][fix] perf-sanity: let the multi-frontend port reservation pass the trtllm-serve launcher probe - #21606
The trtllm-serve launcher probes its port with a plain SO_REUSEADDR bind before serving, to refuse a port another server already uses (_reserve_multi_frontend_port in tensorrt_llm/commands/serve.py, added in #19379).
The perf-sanity harness reserves the port of a multi-frontend server itself. reserve_multi_frontend_port in tests/integration/defs/perf/test_perf_sanity.py (added in #18298) binds a socket with SO_REUSEPORT only, never listens on it, and holds it while the server starts. On Linux a plain SO_REUSEADDR bind fails with EADDRINUSE against a bound socket that did not set SO_REUSEADDR. The launcher's probe therefore refuses the harness's own reservation:
RuntimeError: Failed to bind socket to <host>:<port>: [Errno 98] Address already in use. Port holder(s): no listening socket found for this port; it may have already been released, indicating a transient race
Every perf-sanity case that sets num_serve_frontends > 1 fails to start on main:
11 configs under tests/scripts/perf-sanity/ and tests/scripts/perf/;
they include the GB300 AgentX lanes for DeepSeek-V4-Pro, DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash and Kimi-K3, and the Kimi-K3 160k1k lanes.
The ctx and gen servers exit about 30 s after launch. The harness then waits for them until the job is killed.
The reservation now sets SO_REUSEADDR as well, and the launcher's probe passes it. The probe still refuses another server, because that server's sockets are listening and SO_REUSEADDR never shares a port with a listener. After the probe, each frontend binds the reserved port with SO_REUSEPORT as before.
One trade-off: until the server binds, another process that sets SO_REUSEADDR can also bind the reserved port. If it listens on it, the launcher's probe refuses the port and the case fails at startup, so that failure is loud rather than silent.
Test Coverage
tests/unittest/others/test_perf_sanity_port_reservation.py is new. It is cpu_only and listed in tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml, which maps it to CPU-Generic-arm-1/2 and CPU-Generic-x86-1/2.
It loads the harness's reserve_multi_frontend_port and serve's _reserve_multi_frontend_port from their sources with ast, without importing the serving stack, as test_perf_sanity_tpot.py does.
test_reserved_port_passes_the_launcher_probe reserves a port with the harness, runs the launcher's probe on it, then binds and listens a frontend socket on it. On main it fails with the EADDRINUSE error above, raised from serve.py; with the change it passes.
test_launcher_probe_still_refuses_a_listening_server checks that the probe still refuses a port that a listening server holds, so the change does not weaken the launcher's check.
The failure was found running the DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash AgentX lane (gb300_deepseek-v41-flash-fp4-dspark_agentx_con1579_ctx2_dep2_gen1_dep16_eplb0_dspark5_ccb-NIXL) on GB300 with a build of main 7924c15: both ctx servers and the gen server failed at startup with the error above.
With this change applied to the same checkout, the servers of that lane start on GB300: both ctx servers, the gen server and the disaggregated server pass the launcher's port check and come up.
reserve_multi_frontend_port sets SO_REUSEADDR alongside SO_REUSEPORT. This lets the launcher’s plain-SO_REUSEADDR probe pass while the reservation holds the port.
Frontends continue to use SO_REUSEPORT to share the port. The reservation does not prevent another process using SO_REUSEADDR from binding first; if that process listens, the launcher probe fails.
Test execution results are unavailable in the supplied evidence.
QA Engineer Review
Added tests/unittest/others/test_perf_sanity_port_reservation.py with two tests. They cover probe success with two listening frontends sharing the reserved port, and probe rejection when a server is already listening.
Added the test file to tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml.
Coverage verdict: needs follow-up. The tests cover the main probe and frontend-sharing paths, but do not directly verify the documented risk that another process using SO_REUSEADDR can bind first.
Per-File QA Perspective
tests/integration/defs/perf/test_perf_sanity.py: Verify that the reservation passes the launcher probe and that frontends still share the port with SO_REUSEPORT.
tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml: Adds the CPU-only reservation test to the CI test list.
tests/unittest/others/test_perf_sanity_port_reservation.py: Covers probe success, frontend sharing, and rejection of an already-listening server. Listed in test-db/l0_cpu.yml.
… the trtllm-serve launcher probe
The trtllm-serve launcher probes its port with a plain SO_REUSEADDR bind
before serving, to refuse a port another server already uses. The
perf-sanity harness holds a multi-frontend server's port with a bound,
never-listening SO_REUSEPORT socket, and on Linux the probe fails with
EADDRINUSE against a bound socket that did not set SO_REUSEADDR. Every
perf-sanity case that sets num_serve_frontends > 1 therefore fails to
start.
Set SO_REUSEADDR on the reservation as well. The probe still refuses
another server, because that server's sockets are listening.
The new CPU test loads both functions from their sources and checks
both halves of that contract.

It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The harness reservation socket now sets SO_REUSEADDR as well as SO_REUSEPORT. CPU-only tests check launcher reservation, frontend binding, and the failure when a listening socket already occupies the port.

Summary
Set reservation socket options tests/integration/defs/perf/test_perf_sanity.py
The reservation documentation describes the launcher's SO_REUSEADDR probe and shared-binding behavior. reserve_multi_frontend_port sets SO_REUSEADDR alongside SO_REUSEPORT, and the log message names both options.
Verify reservation and conflict behavior tests/unittest/others/test_perf_sanity_port_reservation.py, tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml
CPU-only tests load the relevant definitions and check launcher probing, frontend binding, and the occupied-port error. The CPU integration list includes the test.
No actionable merge-blocking issue is identified; the change appears mergeable after normal checks.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Exercise two concurrent frontend listeners.
The test opens only one frontend socket. A configuration that permits the first listener but prevents another frontend from joining would pass. Keep the first socket open and bind and listen on a second frontend socket on the same port. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
As per path instructions, “Flag assertions that would pass despite a plausible regression.”
Included review availability: This review used your included allowance. Your plan provides up to 12 included reviews per hour; 7 remain after this review.
The reservation is not listening, but the first frontend joins the listening SO_REUSEPORT group. The test currently stops after that first listener. Add a second listener while the first remains open to cover the multi-frontend sharing path.
Suggested fix
with _frontend_socket() as frontend:
frontend.bind((_HOST, port))
frontend.listen()
+ with _frontend_socket() as second_frontend:+ second_frontend.bind((_HOST, port))+ second_frontend.listen()

@coderabbitai Thanks, done in 1224a9b. test_reserved_port_passes_the_launcher_probe now keeps the first frontend listening, then binds and listens on a second frontend on the same port, which is the multi-frontend sharing path.
For best results, initiate chat on the files or code changes.
@JunyiXu-nv Thanks for the update. Keeping the first frontend listening while the second frontend binds and listens on the same port addresses the multi-frontend coverage gap.

Approving — the comments below are optional touch-ups, not blockers.
The fix matches reserve_mpi_worker_port (test_perf_sanity.py:1719), which already holds its port with an SO_REUSEADDR socket so that launch_server's bind can share it. Loading the real _reserve_multi_frontend_port with ast means the test will catch it if serve.py's probe changes again. Both tests pass locally.
The title carries [None], but this fixes a regression that breaks every num_serve_frontends > 1 perf-sanity lane on main. If there is an NVBug tracking the AgentX/Kimi-K3 lane failures, please reference it so the fix can be linked back for verification.

…ecoding and 8 front ends
Speculative decoding (ISSUES B2): perf sanity requires 'Mean Avg Decoded Tokens
per Iter' of speculative-decoding cases. The benchmark client averages
the avg_decoded_tokens_per_iter field of each response, which the
OpenEngine front end does not fill in, so the arms with a chain failed
every MTP case after measuring it. Perf sanity no longer requires the
line of those arms, and their results of speculative-decoding cases
note that it is not checked.
Ports and counters (ISSUES T18): an arm's port is now drawn first below the
static window and outside the CI container's port range, from which
get_free_port_in_ci() hands ports to other test servers, then anywhere
below the ephemeral range as before, in the address family of the host;
an implausible ephemeral range counts as unknown; a counter file holding
null counts as no count instead of raising TypeError; and a
configuration value of the wrong type is refused as ArmError.
reserve_multi_frontend_port() reserved its port with a socket that set
SO_REUSEPORT only, which made the SO_REUSEADDR probe of trtllm-serve's
multi-front-end launcher fail with EADDRINUSE for every caller: the
non-arm aggregated branch, the disaggregated workers and the gen-only
server. The reservation now also sets SO_REUSEADDR, so until the front
ends listen any socket that sets SO_REUSEADDR can bind the port too. The
function is identical to upstream commit adab54f (NVIDIA#21606), which made
the same fix after this branch's base, so that a rebase onto it applies
cleanly.
