In `@cpp/tensorrt_llm/kernels/contextFusedMultiHeadAttention/CMakeLists.txt`:
- Around line 18-35: Add configure-time validation for the generated FMHA
outputs: require `${TRTLLM_FMHA_GEN_DIR}/cubin/fmha_cubin.cpp` before appending
it to `SRC_CPP`, and verify each enabled architecture has a matching
`*_sm${arch}.cu` before creating its kernel target. Fail configuration with a
clear error when either output is missing, and use `CONFIGURE_DEPENDS` for
relevant generated-file globs if regeneration may happen after configuration.
In `@docs/source/installation/build-from-source.md`:
- Line 112: Update the checkout-write list in the build-from-source
documentation to include cpp/include/tensorrt_llm/executor/version.h for
non-hermetic --build_root builds, or explicitly clarify that only hermetic mode
redirects this generated file into the build tree.
In `@scripts/build_wheel.py`:
- Around line 662-679: Strengthen the hermetic validation around the visible
hermetic setup block so every output, staging, and cache path is outside
project_dir: reject build_root, build_dir, dist_dir, TRTLLM_WHEEL_STAGING_DIR,
and the 3rd-party cache when they resolve inside the checkout. Ensure setuptools
staging is forced or validated under build_root and default the FetchContent
cache there, then add coverage for each rejected in-checkout configuration.

/bot skip --comment "Dropped this PR's blanket AutoDeploy-shim waive; it is replaced by a narrower, tracked waive in #17653 (nvbugs/6606123). This PR is now purely the hermetic build-system change and touches no test list or test. The shim failures are pre-existing main-side setup-OOM flakes (nvbugs/6606123), unrelated to a build-system change. The remaining commits are byte-identical to the code in the last green pipeline #65661 (only the waive line was removed), so no retest is needed." |

Per review: 'hermetic' has historically meant air-gapped in this codebase, but this flag is about out-of-tree builds that never write into the checkout. Rename to --out-of-tree, which says what it does. Renames the flag, its main() parameter, help/error text, docs, and CMake comments. No behavior change.

The out-of-tree build points TRTLLM_FMHA_GEN_DIR at the build tree. Previously a missing generated fmha_cubin.cpp, or an enabled architecture with no generated *_sm<arch>.cu, was silently dropped from the source list -- surfacing only as a confusing link error or a missing-kernel failure at runtime. Turn both into configure-time FATAL_ERROR so an incomplete generation is caught immediately. arch 120 keeps its hand-written skip_softmax TU appended, so its target still builds.

…e on mode switch The --out-of-tree redirect vars (TRTLLM_FMHA_GEN_DIR, TRTLLM_VERSION_H_INCLUDE_DIR) are only consumed when the CMake configure block runs, which is gated on first_build/clean/configure_cmake. Since the build dir depended only on build_root and build_type, a conventional build followed by an --out-of-tree build under the same --build_root (without --clean) left CMakeFiles present, skipped configure, and reused a cache with in-source FMHA/version.h paths -- silently writing into the checkout despite --out-of-tree. Give out-of-tree builds their own cpp-build-oot directory so toggling the mode always looks like a first build and reconfigures with the correct redirected paths.

Description
--build_root(landed in #17524) keeps build state out of the checkout, but a build still writes final artifacts into the source tree (compiled libs, headers, stubs, generated FMHA kernel sources), because the checkout doubles as the Python package for editable installs.For workflows that only need a wheel (CI, ephemeral cluster nodes), this PR adds
--out-of-tree: a build mode that guarantees the checkout is never written, validated by building with the source tree mounted read-only. Changes:TRTLLM_FMHA_GEN_DIRCMake cache variable (default: the historical in-source location) tells the build wherefmha_v2_cu/*.cuandcubin/fmha_cubin.{h,cpp}live. The generator runs from a scratch copy (it writes./generated,./temp,./objrelative to itself), generated kernels now includefused_multihead_attention_common.hwithout a"../"prefix so they compile from either location, and the generated-header directory is added to the global include path when redirected (the header is consumed transitively by several targets).version.hout of tree. NewTRTLLM_VERSION_H_INCLUDE_DIRCMake cache variable redirects the configuredexecutor/version.hinto the build tree instead ofcpp/include.examplespackages that root-levelfind_packages()ships) are staged under<build_root>/package, compiled artifacts and stubs are installed there, and the wheel is built from the staging tree into<build_root>/dist(default).git submodule update), and--version-overrideis rejected (it editstensorrt_llm/version.pyin place).Editable-install workflows (
