In benchmark disagg mode a generation worker blocks at the fill gate (TLLM_BENCHMARK_REQ_QUEUES_SIZE) until the context tier has filled it; the wait scales with the concurrency and can take tens of minutes, during which its GPU does nothing and GPU-activity metrics read 0. With TRTLLM_GPU_KEEPALIVE=1 (default off) every closed gate retry queues a short chunk of GPU work (a resident warp on every SM, ~100 ms, two deep) instead of only sleeping, and the chunks are drained when the gate opens. The Triton spin kernel is compile-tested once in a subprocess that is polled from the gate (a compile failure can SIGABRT; the executor thread never blocks on it) with a low-duty, wall-clock paced torch.mm fallback; chunk length is calibrated at runtime. The stream and buffers are allocated at the first tick, outside the creator's executor_extra memory scope that sleep() releases, and freed when the gate opens or the executor loop exits. Warmup never reaches the gate. With the variable unset the gate is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Xianjie <5410381+qiaoxj07@users.noreply.github.com>

Description
Adds an opt-in GPU keepalive to the benchmark fill gate of
PyExecutor, enabled withTRTLLM_GPU_KEEPALIVE=1(default off).In benchmark disaggregated mode a generation worker blocks at the fill gate (
TLLM_BENCHMARK_REQ_QUEUES_SIZE) until the context tier has filled it with requests. That wait scales with the concurrency and can take tens of minutes, during which the worker's GPU does nothing and GPU-activity metrics read 0. With the keepalive enabled, every gate retry that finds the gate still closed queues a short chunk of GPU work in addition to its usual sleep, and the chunks are drained when the gate opens.How it works
GpuKeepalive(newtensorrt_llm/_torch/pyexecutor/gpu_keepalive.py) queues ~100 ms chunks, two deep, on a private stream: a Triton kernel with one warp per CTA and two CTAs per SM spinning on an FMA chain. SM-activity metrics count SMs with at least one resident warp, so this reads like a loaded GPU at ~3% warp occupancy; co-running kernels (e.g. KV-cache transfers) slow by 5–7% (measured on GB200, GB300 and Rubin). Chunk length is calibrated at runtime, so nothing is GPU-specific. The buffers are created on the executor's current stream and handed to the private stream withwait_stream+record_stream, so their initialisation is ordered before the first chunk and their blocks stay in the model's allocator pool (and go back to it when released).trycan catch). The child runs in its own process group and is polled fromtick(), so it never blocks the executor thread (an in-flight KV transfer cannot time out behind it) and a kill on timeout or shutdown also reaches theptxasit spawns; if it does not pass within 120 s, a low-dutytorch.mmfallback is used (one ~5 ms GEMM burst per 100 ms, paced by wall clock so a fast retry loop cannot raise its duty).PyExecutorchange is confined to_check_benchmark_disagg_gate(tick()on every closed retry anddrain()when the gate opens, before the first forward; warmup is already excluded by the gate) plus aclose()call in_executor_loop_cleanup, so a loop that exits while the gate is still closed stops a pending self-test child and frees the device side. The keepalive object is created in__init__but allocates its stream and buffers at its first tick, on the executor thread and outside the creator'sexecutor_extramemory scope, so an engine sleep that releases that scope cannot invalidate them;drain()frees them again when the gate opens (the gate is one-shot, and thetorch.mmoperands are 96 MiB). Rank-local and collective-free; any error disables the keepalive, waits for whatever it had submitted and frees its buffers, instead of failing the executor.Behaviour with the variable unset: identical to
main; the gate readsNoneand takes its original path.Test Coverage
tests/unittest/_torch/executor/test_gpu_keepalive.py, four CPU-only tests (collected via theunittest/_torch/executorentry in the L0 test lists): queue-depth backpressure, thetorch.mmcadence, release on drain, and any error (launch, drain or first-tick setup) disabling the keepalive, synchronizing its stream and releasing its buffers instead of raising; the asynchronous self-test (nothing launched while the child runs, pass/fail verdicts cached per device, no-marker, no-context and hung-child fallbacks, a pending child stopped byclose()); env gating (the constructor is never reached unless the variable is1, and construction touches no CUDA state); and the gate wiring bound onto a bare stub (a closed gate ticks before its usual sleep, drain when the gate opens, nothing when the gate is already open or during warmup) plus an exact source check of the constructor line and a behavioural check of_executor_loop_cleanupon a stub (waiters notified, thenclose(), then the PP handles; unchanged without a keepalive). The no-keepalive path is covered by the existing gate tests intest_benchmark_disagg.py.tests/unittest/_torch/executor/test_gpu_keepalive_gpu.py, two GPU tests through the production path (launches, release on drain), each clearing the output buffer once initialisation and the one-time recalibration are behind (both write it themselves), requiring a further chunk, and reading the buffer back only afterdrain()with no other synchronisation, so they prove both that a runtime chunk computed (the spin sink is non-zero, the GEMM output holds 4096) and thatdrain()waited for it: thetorch.mmfallback with the self-test verdict pre-seeded to fail, and the real spin kernel incl. the asynchronous self-test (asserted; skipped where Triton is unavailable or the compute mode forbids the self-test's second CUDA context).test_benchmark_disagg.pyare unaffected: their stubs carry no keepalive and take the original path.mode=spin, a single compiled kernel variant (first tick 0.3 ms), NVML utilization 0 → 100 → 0 across tick and drain, DCGM SM_ACTIVE 0.997 at SM_OCCUPANCY 0.03.PR Checklist
