[#19173][fix] Record checkpoint policy and runtime image in startup telemetry - #19174
Make rank-striped/native startup comparisons attributable to the loader that actually ran. Publish the finalized primary-model policy through /server_info and record the CI test container's original OCI/base-image reference; this is not customer image-usage tracking.
Scope
Capture detached loader-policy snapshots after completed weight loading, before draft loading resets shared state; include observed Mistral/MX native disk loads and GMS writer disk loads while keeping unsupported, preloaded and GMS reader paths unknown.
Prefer structured primary policy, retain labeled log fallback only for older runtimes without the field, and report timing/policy completeness without classifying partial observations.
Record the original OCI/base-image reference across Jenkins launch paths; digest_pinned applies only to that reference, not a derived Enroot .sqsh or the environment after package installation.
Add regression coverage for policy attribution, GMS writer/draft/reader behavior and real BaseWorker forwarding in existing CPU CI stages. No loader behavior, public configuration, dependencies, allocations or new CI stages change.
Verification
Current head: f6b4afba1d2650d100066075bbb1892a360c198f, based on main 6fc7f47a322d88037ffe9eca6913526f1f05a4fb.
Current-head selected tests: 256 passed.L0 #69085 executed all eight selected groups on x86 and ARM (128 per architecture), with no selected failures, skips, missing cases or duplicates. Coverage includes the full checkpoint-I/O (50), startup-telemetry (20), provenance (28) and GMS (18) modules, BaseWorker forwarding (2), server-info metrics (2) and both MTP groups (6 + 2). All GMS writer/writer-with-draft/reader regressions passed on both architectures.
Full CI failed: #69085 reported 120,280 passed / 16,040 skipped / 19 failed records. Helper #83571's SUCCESS is dispatch/report completion, not full-test success. Both builds passed; single-GPU failures prevented both multi-GPU children from starting.
Failure triage: 14 records are six inherited disaggregation fixture cases per architecture plus wrappers (guided_failures missing from a synthetic batch). The affected code/tests are unchanged by this PR; latest main now contains the owner's six NVBug 7071872 waivers. Other records are a B200 block-causal graph failure (cuBLAS internal error followed by capture error 901), two Flux2 setup failures during Ubuntu dependency downloads, and a B200 performance regression. H100 shared-tensor tests initially hit four queue timeouts, then passed on automatic retry; these are not additional terminal failures. The H100 log confirms success on attempt 2 after a monitor/connectivity failure, despite the retained stage-level failure label. Graph and performance failures recur elsewhere; this is not proof that every failure is infrastructure-only. No PR-specific telemetry defect has been established.
Local verification: macOS / Python 3.13, python -m pytest -c /dev/null --noconftest -p no:cacheprovider -o addopts='' -o 'markers=cpu_only: CPU-only test' tests/unittest/others/test_perf_regression_branch.py -q — 28 passed, including a fresh rerun. Applicable changed-file hooks, ten Python syntax checks, git diff --check and remote pre-commit/API/base/title/checklist/DCO checks passed. Pyrefly was not installed locally; its advisory wrapper is not a type-check pass.
Review and scope: fresh complete source and independent reviews found no actionable in-scope findings. No additional source changes or rebase are needed while the PR remains conflict-free. Both signed commits and the agreed OCI/base-image scope are preserved.
One bounded same-head retry requested:/bot run --disable-fail-fast. A new full pipeline resolves the current target-branch waiver list during preparation, unlike rerunning an old child with the old artifact. This can pick up the existing CPU waivers without rebasing or adding skips in this PR; confirm the new artifact and actual outcomes. No code, waiver, threshold or stage changes were made for this retry. Launch workflow #42773548084 passed authorization and is running the vulnerability scan. Actual Jenkins launch, refreshed waiver-artifact use and final results remain pending.
Remaining validation: obtain a passing full pipeline, including multi-GPU stages. Waived/skipped unrelated tests are not passes. Unit tests cover image-provenance collection, but not live end-to-end propagation through all three Jenkins launch paths. Derived .sqsh identity remains a separate follow-up.
Notes
Fixes#19173; follows #18608. Measurements remain rank-0 model-loading timings, not process-launch-to-first-token timings or proof of cold-cache performance. Matching OCI/base references do not establish identical runtime environments; final launch-artifact provenance remains a follow-up. See the measurement limitations.

It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The change exposes finalized checkpoint-I/O policy in startup metadata and updates performance collection to record policy sources and completeness. CI jobs now pass runtime-image provenance for performance comparisons. Tests and documentation cover the new metadata and collection behavior.
ModelLoader records separate target and draft checkpoint-I/O policy snapshots. Startup metrics expose the metadata, with tests covering policy states and loader paths.
The collector prefers structured primary policy when present and uses logs only when that field is absent. It validates timing and policy completeness, gates experiment classification on policy coverage, and documents the telemetry fields.

Explanation
The title follows the repository template ([#19173][fix]) and names the two main changes: recording the checkpoint policy and the runtime image in startup telemetry. The raw summary confirms both: a primary-model checkpoint I/O policy snapshot exposed via /server_info, and TRTLLM_CI_RUNTIME_IMAGE recording in the CI runtime image provenance. The title is concise, specific, and at 77 characters it is within a reasonable length.

Explanation
Directly linked issue #19173 has four coding objectives. Each is implemented at the reviewed head (af2a285) against merge base 5796894.
Structured primary policy through startup metadata and /server_info: ModelLoader._materialize_checkpoint_weights snapshots checkpoint_io_policy through _checkpoint_io_policy_metadata after weight-session finalization and before draft loading. The snapshot holds requested, selected, activated, effective, and fallback_reason. It returns None for preloaded, unsupported, or unobserved loads. Draft policy uses a separate key, draft_checkpoint_io_policy. BaseWorker.get_startup_metrics forwards this metadata, and a CPU test covers that forwarding.
CI collector prefers structured policy and keeps labeled legacy-log fallback: per the PR summary of test_perf_sanity.py, make_startup_observation uses structured primary policy when present. It falls back to logs (legacy_logs) only when the primary policy field is absent. Invalid or unknown structured policy stays unclassified. Unit tests in test_perf_startup_telemetry.py cover these cases.
Separate timing and policy completeness indicators: the aggregate adds timing-completeness and checkpoint-policy-completeness flags. Experiment classification is emitted only when collection is complete. Tests cover missing data, boolean, negative, NaN, and infinite timing values, and partial coverage.
Runtime-image provenance at Kubernetes and Slurm launch sites: jenkins/L0_Test.groovy sets TRTLLM_CI_RUNTIME_IMAGE for the Slurm agent path (withEnv), the sbatch multi-node export path (envVarsToExport, set to LLM_DOCKER_IMAGE), and the Kubernetes pod spec (value: "${image}"). get_job_info in perf_regression_utils.py extracts a digest only from valid SHA-256 digest-pinned references. Tagged references classify as reference-only, and missing or blank values produce "unknown". test_perf_regression_branch.py covers these cases.
Tests and documentation cover the objectives. docs/source/features/checkpoint-loading.md documents comparison semantics and limitations. test_model_loader_checkpoint_io.py covers native, activated, fallback, degraded, Mistral/MX native, and unobserved outcomes, and checks that the target snapshot precedes draft reset. Excluded items (launch-to-first-token, running-digest resolution for mutable tags, checkpoint fingerprints, new CI stages) are not implemented, as the issue requires.
Unresolved uncertainty: the Jenkins environment-export paths lack unit coverage. I checked the diff and found the three paths consistent with the summary. I did not execute them. Full current-head CI is pending, and the PR reports the multi-GPU stages as approval-gated. The reported local tests (28 passed) and the historical selected-test results support compliance, but they do not verify the current head. The issue requires focused tests, not full CI, so this does not change the verdict.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
Every changed file supports an objective in #19173.
model_loader.py: adds metadata snapshots only (checkpoint_io_policy, draft_checkpoint_io_policy, and the typed alias for startup metadata). The diff reads loader status and does not change loading, allocation, or policy selection.
test_perf_sanity.py, perf_regression_utils.py, test_perf_startup_telemetry.py: collector preference, fallback labeling, completeness flags, and image-provenance extraction. These implement the objectives directly.
jenkins/L0_Test.groovy: propagates the configured test-container image into the Slurm, sbatch, and Kubernetes environments. This is the launch-reference objective.
test_llm.py, test_base_worker.py, test_model_loader_checkpoint_io.py, test_mtp_separate_checkpoint.py, test_perf_regression_branch.py: regression tests for these changes. The _startup_metadata initialization in test_mtp_separate_checkpoint.py keeps existing tests valid after the new metadata writes.
l0_cpu.yml: adds one CPU test to an existing stage. The PR adds no new CI stages.
checkpoint-loading.md: documents comparison semantics and limitations, as the issue requires.
I found no change for excluded work. The PR does not add launch-to-first-token instrumentation, running-digest resolution for mutable tags, native counterfactual probes, checkpoint fingerprints, slowest-rank collectives, failed-start persistence, dependencies, or model launches. The PR summary does not show public configuration or allocation changes.
