Description

Issue: Helix integration test with combination of PP+MNNVL comms usage of AllToAll hangs.
Root cause: HelixCpMnnvlMemory has lazy initialization with mpi_comm().split() and needs all ranks to participate. This is not happening with Pipeline Parallelism as those ranks with varying ppRank don't reach the mpi_comm().split() at the same time.
Fix: Eager initialization when PP is involved.

Launch build/test pipelines. All previously running jobs will be killed.

--reuse-test (optional)pipeline-id (OPTIONAL) : Allow the new pipeline to reuse build artifacts and skip successful test stages from a specified pipeline or the last pipeline if no pipeline-id is indicated. If the Git commit ID has changed, this option will be always ignored. The DEFAULT behavior of the bot is to reuse build artifacts and successful test results from the last pipeline.

--disable-reuse-test (OPTIONAL) : Explicitly prevent the pipeline from reusing build artifacts and skipping successful test stages from a previous pipeline. Ensure that all builds and tests are run regardless of previous successes.

--disable-fail-fast (OPTIONAL) : Disable fail fast on build/tests/infra failures.

--skip-test (OPTIONAL) : Skip all test stages, but still run build stages, package stages and sanity check stages. Note: Does NOT update GitHub check status.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Refactors Helix CP communicator creation by simplifying rank grouping from a composite to direct PP/TP combination, introduces conditional pre-initialization logic via a new helper function integrated into PP communicator setup, and adjusts test configuration entries.

Helix CP Communicator Initialization
tensorrt_llm/_mnnvl_utils.py, tensorrt_llm/_torch/distributed/communicator.py
Simplifies MPI Split key from 3-level composite to direct PP rank + TP rank combination, removing moe_tp_size/moe_tp_rank dependencies. Adds init_helix_cp_comm() helper for conditional pre-initialization during model setup to prevent PP divergence deadlocks. New function is imported and called in init_pp_comm() after PPComm initialization.

19-19: LGTM!

The import follows the coding guidelines by maintaining the namespace.


885-893: Correct placement of Helix CP communicator pre-initialization.

Calling init_helix_cp_comm(mapping) immediately after PPComm initialization ensures all ranks participate in the MPI Split operation before any PP-induced divergence. This is the key fix for the deadlock issue described in the PR objectives.

tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_dgx_b200.yml (2)

74-74: LGTM - Strategic test configuration for pre-merge validation.

The change to fifo-cudagraph:with_padding-pp2tp1cp2 in pre_merge is appropriate. FIFO uses MNNVL communication (where use_nccl_for_alltoall=False), which exercises the new pre-initialization code path that fixes the PP+MNNVL deadlock described in the PR objectives.


104-104: LGTM - Complementary test coverage in post-merge.

The swap to nccl-cudagraph:with_padding-pp2tp1cp2 in post_merge provides complementary coverage of the NCCL communication path (where use_nccl_for_alltoall=True and pre-initialization is skipped).

tensorrt_llm/_mnnvl_utils.py (2)

380-397: Excellent fix for the PP+MNNVL deadlock.

The pre-initialization approach correctly addresses the root cause: ensuring all ranks participate in the collective MPI Split operation before PP pipeline divergence occurs. The comprehensive docstring clearly explains the problem and solution. The default value for use_nccl_for_alltoall is consistently True across the codebase, and the pre-initialization triggers only when explicitly set to False, as intended.


367-377: Update docstring to accurately describe attention-only Helix CP communicator.

The Split key simplification is correct: Helix CP is used only for attention layers where MOE is not involved. FFN layers (where MOE happens) repurpose CP ranks to TP. However, the docstring incorrectly mentions MOE_TP grouping. Update line 369 to: """Get CP-based communicator (ranks grouped by PP+TP, ordered by CP rank)."""

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.

Calling init_helix_cp_comm(mapping) immediately after PPComm initialization ensures all ranks participate in the MPI Split operation before any PP-induced divergence. This is the key fix for the deadlock issue described in the PR objectives.

tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_dgx_b200.yml (2)

74-74: LGTM - Strategic test configuration for pre-merge validation.

The change to fifo-cudagraph:with_padding-pp2tp1cp2 in pre_merge is appropriate. FIFO uses MNNVL communication (where use_nccl_for_alltoall=False), which exercises the new pre-initialization code path that fixes the PP+MNNVL deadlock described in the PR objectives.


104-104: LGTM - Complementary test coverage in post-merge.

The swap to nccl-cudagraph:with_padding-pp2tp1cp2 in post_merge provides complementary coverage of the NCCL communication path (where use_nccl_for_alltoall=True and pre-initialization is skipped).

tensorrt_llm/_mnnvl_utils.py (2)

380-397: Excellent fix for the PP+MNNVL deadlock.

The pre-initialization approach correctly addresses the root cause: ensuring all ranks participate in the collective MPI Split operation before PP pipeline divergence occurs. The comprehensive docstring clearly explains the problem and solution. The default value for use_nccl_for_alltoall is consistently True across the codebase, and the pre-initialization triggers only when explicitly set to False, as intended.


367-377: Update docstring to accurately describe attention-only Helix CP communicator.

The Split key simplification is correct: Helix CP is used only for attention layers where MOE is not involved. FFN layers (where MOE happens) repurpose CP ranks to TP. However, the docstring incorrectly mentions MOE_TP grouping. Update line 369 to: """Get CP-based communicator (ranks grouped by PP+TP, ordered by CP rank)."""

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.
