Issue
#20506requires generation-only MLA workspace sizing to ignore context requests. Incpp/tensorrt_llm/thop/attentionOp.cpp, generation-only calls pass zeronum_contexts,num_ctx_tokens, andctx_total_kv_lentogetWorkspaceSize. Other workspace inputs remain unchanged. The added FP8 MLA test checks equal workspace sizes for zero, one, and four context requests and checks finite output.

Explanation
The production change only adjusts workspace inputs for generation-only attention calls. The test directly covers the linked issue with FP8 MLA mixed-batch metadata. The diff shows no unrelated API, dependency, or production behavior changes.

- Line 1678: Keep the RNG state local in the test containing
torch.manual_seed(0): remove the global seed if fixed inputs are unnecessary, or
use a local CUDA generator for all three uniform_ calls so the test does not
alter global CPU or CUDA RNG state.

The equality checks alone can pass when every captured workspace size is zero. This configuration has one generation token, so its generation workspace must be positive. Add the assertion before comparing context variants.

Description
Fixes #20506.
In a mixed step, the MLA generation half calls
thop.attentionwithattention_input_type=generation_only. The workspace sizing there still received the step'snum_contexts,num_ctx_tokensandhost_total_kv_lens[0], whichMLA.forward_context_with_chunked_prefillrestores to the summed context KV length before returning. For fp8 context MLA, the context part ofgetWorkspaceSizeincludes K/V staging sized by that total. A generation-only call therefore allocated aboutH_local × (qk_nope + qk_rope + kv_lora_rank)bytes per context KV token for buffers it never uses. That came to 13.4 GiB for 13 concurrent 128K prefix hits, and about 132 GiB for 16 requests sharing a 1M prefix.This PR passes zero context counts and KV length to
getWorkspaceSizefor generation-only calls. The context run is already skipped for them;getWorkspaceSizeForContextreturns 0 when there are no context tokens. Mixed and context-only calls are unchanged.Test Coverage
test_mla_generation_only_workspace_ignores_context_requestsintests/unittest/_torch/attention/test_attention_mla.py. It builds one fp8-KV MLA generation layer (128 heads,kv_lora_rank512) and a batch of N context requests with 2048 cached tokens each plus one generation request, runs only the generation slice withgeneration_onlyasforward_absorption_generationdoes, and checks that the workspace size is the same for N = 0, 1 and 4. The test file is already collected byl0_b200.ymlandl0_b300.yml(unittest/_torch/attention).218368000 == 52838400at N = 1, so one context request of 2049 KV tokens adds 158 MiB); with it the wholetest_attention_mla.pygives 97 passed, 8 skipped.8448 B × Σctx_kv + 33.6 MBover 22 cases; with the context arguments zeroed they all drop to the generation-only 50.4 MiB.PR Checklist
Dev Engineer Review
For generation-only calls,
attentionOp.cppnow passes zero context count, context-token count, and total context KV length togetWorkspaceSize. This prevents unused context workspace sizing from scaling with the context requests’ total KV length. Other workspace arguments remain unchanged. The execution path is unchanged.QA Engineer Review
tests/unittest/_torch/attention/test_attention_mla.pyaddstest_mla_generation_only_workspace_ignores_context_requests. It checks finite output and equal workspace sizes with 0, 1, and 4 context requests for FP8 MLA generation. The test skips without CUDA or outside SM100, SM103, and SM107. It is not listed in the integration test lists. Coverage is insufficient for other generation configurations and for mixed or context-only workspace behavior. The supplied author report says the test passed in a run with 97 passed and 8 skipped; current-checkout test results are unavailable.Per-File QA Perspective
cpp/tensorrt_llm/thop/attentionOp.cpp: Verify that generation-only workspace sizing is independent of context count and total context KV length. Verify that other calls retain their context workspace sizing.tests/unittest/_torch/attention/test_attention_mla.py: The new FP8 MLA test checks finite output and workspace invariance for 0, 1, and 4 context requests on supported SMs. It is not listed in the integration test lists.
