Separate per-step indexer metadata preparation from per-module TopK preparation, and route the latter through sparse MLA lifecycle hooks before model execution. Remove forward-time lazy preparation and metadata-owned radix warmup plumbing. Signed-off-by: Fanrong Li <23290157+lfr-0531@users.noreply.github.com>

Keep GVR state within each TopK module and materialize capacity-dependent buffers from prefill seeding or decode forward. Remove engine and shared-metadata coupling, along with redundant kernel warmup calls. Signed-off-by: Fanrong Li <23290157+lfr-0531@users.noreply.github.com>
Initialize CUDA GVR dispatcher hardware caches through the C++ custom-op helper before model warmup. Route sparse Top-K warmup through shared DSA metadata, retain CuTe radix precompilation, and let eager model warmup compile CuTe DSL GVR.

Keep GVR state management inside the TopK module, separate radix and GVR decode paths, and rely on model-engine execution to initialize CUDA GVR. Signed-off-by: Fanrong Li <23290157+lfr-0531@users.noreply.github.com>
Keep CuTe DSL radix warmup after CUDA graph warmup so it only fills eager batch variants not covered by normal engine warmup. Signed-off-by: Fanrong Li <23290157+lfr-0531@users.noreply.github.com>
Keep the existing model-engine CuTe DSL radix warmup wrapper unchanged and limit the TopK refactor to sparse metadata and module ownership. Signed-off-by: Fanrong Li <23290157+lfr-0531@users.noreply.github.com>

TopK._memory_buffers is process-global, but buffers are keyed only by name and allocated on the current "cuda" device. Calling Top-K on multiple GPUs can therefore reuse a workspace from the wrong device and fail; please key and allocate these workspaces using scores.device.

This sorts the same sequence_lengths once per full-indexer layer, adding repeated work in eager execution and CUDA graphs. Please compute the row order once per forward step, as the previous metadata path did, and reuse it across layers.

TopKmodule for Torch, CUDA Radix, CuTe DSL Radix, CUDA GVR, and CuTe DSL GVR.use_custom_topkAPI and heuristic warmup export.use_custom_topkargument.QA Engineer Review
TopKunit tests for Torch prefill/decode behavior, CuTe DSL Radix fallback, GVR state ownership and updates, CUDA Radix dispatch, CUDA GVR buffer management, unsupported implementations, and error handling.TopKreuse, initialization, prefill/decode paths, cached requests, MTP paths, and row ordering.tests/integration/test_lists/is not confirmed.Description
Sparse attention currently selects Top-K through backend-specific branches in the DSA Indexer, while GVR prior indices and scratch buffers live in shared attention metadata. TriAttention also calls the CuTe DSL Top-K operation directly. This makes implementation selection and state ownership fragmented across callers.
This PR introduces a reusable internal
TopKmodule with Torch, CUDA Radix, CuTe DSL Radix, CUDA GVR, and CuTe DSL GVR implementations. The module provides one prefill/decode entry point, owns GVR runtime state, and preserves the CUDA Radix fallback for compressed MTP decode. DSA Indexer and TriAttention now instantiate and call this module instead of implementing their own dispatch. The existing model-engine warmup flow frommainremains unchanged.This builds on the sparse-attention backend refactor merged in #12733. The DSA, TriAttention, and test changes are included together because they are the production consumers of the shared module.
