WalkthroughThe Python transceiver now requires KV cache manager V2 and NIXL. Resource and transfer-test paths use V2 manager APIs and slot-based pool layouts. V1-specific Python transceiver paths are rejected, and V1-specific test paths are removed. ChangesV2 Disaggregation Transition

- Around line 92-93: Update the combinations loop that appends to cases so it
detects when all versions are skipped for a configured combination and raises an
error or logs a warning identifying that combination; preserve the existing
supported-version filtering.
Review comments at @tensorrt_llm/_torch/disaggregation/kv_cache_transceiver.py:
- Around line 186-193: Update the auto runtime resolution path so that after the
effective KV cache manager is determined, an effective V1 manager selects the
C++ transceiver when no runtime preference applies. Preserve the existing
failure when Python is explicitly selected or required by the model; locate the
resolver and manager-selection flow near the KVCacheManagerV2 check.
Review comments at @tensorrt_llm/_torch/disaggregation/resource/page.py:
- Line 351: Update MambaLayerGroup.from_dict to reject peer data that explicitly
sets slot_major_layout to false, while continuing to accept data where the field
is absent or true. Raise an error before constructing the group so layer-major
layouts are not interpreted as slot-major.

Even though this doesn't directly change the API parameters, should we mark this MR "Breaking" in the title since it can cause existing configurations to stop working? |

Thanks for the PR! The new V2 constructor check breaks eight bounded-polling tests that use incompatible manager mocks. Some integration tests still select V1 with the Python transceiver and now fail during startup. Please update the mocks and configurations and verify with the affected tests.
Route legacy connector tests through CPP, use V2 mocks for bounded polling, and remove unsupported V1/PYTHON accuracy cases. Reject empty harness matrices and explicitly advertised legacy Mamba peer layouts. Clarify manager diagnostics and V1 migration guidance.

Description
This pull request removes support for using the Python transceiver (
transceiver_runtime: PYTHON) with the V1 KV cache manager, enforcing that the Python transceiver now requiresKVCacheManagerV2. It updates documentation, configuration, test matrix, and code paths to reflect this restriction, and removes related legacy code. The changes also simplify and clarify the cache reuse and transfer infrastructure to exclusively support V2 in Python-mode disaggregated serving.Key changes:
Enforcement of Python transceiver with KVCacheManagerV2 only:
disagg-serving.mdto clarify that the Python transceiver requiresKVCacheManagerV2and the NIXL backend, and using it with V1 will now raise an error. Users must usetransceiver_runtime: CPPfor V1.Test and configuration matrix updates:
report.pyto skip invalid Python+V1 and C++ + V2 combinations, so only valid runtime/manager pairs are tested.Code cleanup and removal of legacy support:
maybe_enable_fabric_memory_for_python_transceiverfunction and related environment variable handling, as Python+V1 is no longer supported. [1] [2] [3]These changes ensure that Python-mode disaggregated serving is always paired with the correct, modern cache manager, reducing configuration errors and simplifying the codebase.

/bot help.Dev Engineer Review
The Python transceiver now requires
KVCacheManagerV2and the NIXL backend. Python/V1 configurations fail validation; users who need V1 must use the C++ transceiver. The Python cache-reuse and page-table paths no longer translate V1 manager data. The change also removes fabric-memory setup and legacy Mamba layout support.The change removes V1/Python functionality and changes public signatures and data-model constructors. Callers that rely on those APIs or layouts must migrate. The supplied context reports a successful PR_Github run but a failed L0_MergeRequest_PR pipeline. It does not establish the results of the changed tests. No current review findings were supplied, so severity counts are unavailable.
QA Engineer Review
The change updates unit and integration tests and test lists. Coverage includes runtime/manager validation, V2 transfers, cache reuse, page-table layout, harness matrix validation, and Mamba transfers. It removes V1/Python cases, including DeepSeekR1 disaggregated-serving coverage. The supplied context does not establish whether the CPP/V1 path remains covered elsewhere. Coverage verdict: needs follow-up.
The reported L0_MergeRequest_PR failure requires test-result review. No result for the changed test suite was supplied.
