Require every attention-DP rank to hold context work before the prefill CUDA graph engages, instead of any single rank. `_get_padding_params` pads all ranks to `bucket(max(all_rank_num_tokens))` once the graph is in play, so under the previous `any` gate one context request anywhere dragged the whole group onto the largest bucket. In aggregate serving that turned a generation-only rank's one-token step into a full prefill replay: measured on Kimi-K3 DEP16, generation iterations went 457 ms -> 1272 ms (+178%) while context iterations barely moved (657 -> 623 ms), for -42% end-to-end throughput. Gating on `all` recovers it -- 13.18 req/s versus 12.92 req/s for eager in the same setup. Disaggregated serving is unaffected. An otherwise idle rank there receives a *context* dummy from `PyExecutor._pad_attention_dp_dummy_request`, which runs inside `_prepare_and_schedule_batch` before `_schedule()`, so the dummy is counted in `scheduled_requests.num_context_requests` and the group still qualifies. Aggregate serving keeps a generation dummy instead, since `_update_adp_dummy_role` returns early without a cache transceiver -- that is what makes the two paths diverge under the new gate. The existing attention-DP test encoded the old behaviour with a fixture where only one of four ranks held context work; it now uses a fixture that keeps testing what it was named for (a peer's veto), and a new test covers the generation-only rank case directly.

Summary
Require every attention-DP rank to hold context work before the prefill CUDA
graph engages, instead of any single rank.
Once the prefill graph is in play,
_get_padding_paramspads all ranks tobucket(max(all_rank_num_tokens)). Under the previousanygate a singlecontext request anywhere therefore dragged the whole group onto the largest
bucket, so a rank holding only generation work replayed a full prefill graph to
produce one token.
Measurements
Kimi-K3, DEP16 (TP16/EP16 + attention DP), aggregate serving:
anygate)allgate)The regression is entirely in generation: unprofiled A/B measured -42%
end-to-end, with generation iterations going 457 ms -> 1272 ms (+178%) while
context iterations barely moved (657 -> 623 ms).
nsys confirms the mechanism is padding rather than extra work. Kernel count is
flat (6717 -> 6610) while GPU busy time goes 239.7 ms -> 641.9 ms (2.68x) and
the fused MoE kernel alone goes 157.0 ms -> 530.4 ms (3.38x) -- the same kernels
running on padded tokens.
Why disaggregated serving is unaffected
An otherwise idle rank in disagg receives a context dummy from
PyExecutor._pad_attention_dp_dummy_request, which runs inside_prepare_and_schedule_batchbefore_schedule(). The dummy is thereforecounted in
scheduled_requests.num_context_requests, every rank reportsnon-zero context work, and the group still qualifies for the graph.
Aggregate serving keeps a generation dummy instead, because
_update_adp_dummy_rolereturns early when there is no cache transceiver and_adp_dummy_is_genstays at itsTruedefault. That difference is exactly whatmakes the two paths diverge under the new gate.
Test Coverage
tests/unittest/llmapi/test_llm_args.py::TestPrefillCudaGraph::test_attention_dp_prefill_graph_uses_all_rank_decisionencoded the old behaviour with a fixture where only one of four ranks held
context work. Its fixture now has context work everywhere, so it keeps testing
what it is named for: a peer rank vetoing the group.
...::test_attention_dp_prefill_graph_skips_generation_only_ranksis new andcovers the gate directly -- context on every rank engages the graph, one
generation-only rank keeps the whole group out of it.
