As far as I can tell test_pard is the only PARD GSM8K test that asserts acceptance length, so flipping it to V2 here means PARD stops being exercised on the default cache manager entirely — the very path this PR does not change.
Would it be worth parametrizing over use_kv_cache_manager_v2 rather than switching, so both managers stay covered?
Not something I'd hold the PR on, but I do think it belongs in this change rather than a follow-up.

kwargs.get("enable_swa_scratch_reuse") is never supplied by the only production caller: KvCacheCreator._per_manager_cache_cost forwards just use_separate_draft_kv_cache / num_layers (all four call sites at _util.py L793/819/840/846/1698), so this is always False here. The runtime uses kv_cache_config.enable_swa_scratch_reuse and not is_draft (__init__ L1013) for the same estimate in _get_quota_from_max_tokens_impl/_get_max_tokens_from_quota_impl. On a 30-SWA-layer / 2048 B-per-token-per-layer config with tokens_per_block=64 and max_num_tokens=8192, that is a ~464 MiB divergence between the static intercept and the runtime quota whenever the flag is on.
This classmethod already receives kv_cache_config and is_draft, so it can derive the flag with the same expression __init__ uses. As written, test_v2_static_and_runtime_cache_costs_agree passes the kwarg explicitly and therefore cannot catch the drift.

This term is a real fix -- the runtime quota conversion has always charged context_tokens * context_swa_size_per_token, while the static estimate for the target manager charged zero (max_num_tokens was passed as 0 for is_draft=False, and context_swa_size_per_token was only computed on the DFlash-draft path). But it now lands on every SWA model, not just PARD.
On a Gemma3-27B-shaped config (30 SWA layers @ w=1024, 10 full-attn, 2048 B/token/layer, tpb=64, bs=8, max_num_tokens=8192) the target intercept goes from ~0.47 GiB to ~0.97 GiB: ~469 MiB from this context term and ~30 MiB from the +1 page that the reworked window_blocks formula adds at headroom=1. Could the description and the test coverage call this out and include an SWA model, so the available-capacity drop is a known consequence rather than a surprise?
(For what it is worth, I brute-forced the new ceil((w + headroom - 2) / tpb) + 1 against AttnLifeCycle.get_stale_range() over tpb in {16,32,64}, w in [1,300), headroom in {1,2,5,8,11,20} -- it is exactly the tight maximum, so both the old ceil(w/tpb) under-count and the old DFlash -1 over-count are corrected.)

_max_num_tokens is set unconditionally in __init__ (L631) and read directly everywhere else in this file (L879, L1470, L1671, L2058), so this fallback is only needed by the hand-built object.__new__(KvCacheCreator) double in test_kv_cache_budget_split._make_creator, which never sets it. On main the conditional expression self._max_num_tokens if is_draft else 0 short-circuited and never touched the attribute for is_draft=False; reading it unconditionally is what makes those ~15 _split_kv_cache_budget_for_draft tests need the fallback.
Please set _max_num_tokens in that fixture (as test_kv_cache_estimation.py L169 and test_dual_pool_kv_cache.py L179 already do) and use self._max_num_tokens here -- otherwise a genuinely missing attribute silently estimates a zero fixed cost instead of failing.

This axis does not discriminate anything, so it doubles the case count for no added coverage:

A uniform-window config would let this test actually cover the draft path this PR widens.

Minor robustness point, not currently reachable: kv_cache_config is Optional[KvCacheConfig] = None in this signature but is dereferenced unguarded two lines below (kv_cache_config.max_util_for_resume). Today the only caller that omits it (_get_cross_kv_size_per_token, _util.py L1948) leaves is_draft=False so the guard short-circuits, but this PR widens the condition from "DFlash draft" to any draft manager with a single SWA pool. Either handle None explicitly or make the parameter required.

Dev Engineer Review
Cache Manager V2 now accounts for standalone draft managers and PARD runtime headroom. Budget splitting preserves separate target and draft affine costs, including SWA, retained pages, rounding, and resume costs. Shared headroom logic applies to estimation, quota conversion, allocation growth, and
max_blocks_per_seq. The genericCacheCostmodel remains unchanged. Main regression risk is inconsistency between static sizing and runtime allocation for uncommon speculative-decoding configurations.QA Engineer Review
Four KV-cache unit-test files and one integration test file changed. Coverage includes PARD headroom, affine budget splitting, SWA and rounding costs, draft-cache reuse, resume behavior, quota expectations, and maximum block capacity. The reported 329 KV-cache V2 tests pass.

Cache manager V2 could under-size the standalone draft KV pool used by one-engine external drafters such as PARD. A logical PARD draft length of K consumes 2K runtime tokens per generation step; for K=4, the maximum KV capacity lead is
(K - 1) + 2K = 11tokens.This change keeps KV cost accounting purely affine (
slope * tokens + intercept) while making the estimator match runtime allocation geometry:max_blocks_per_seq;The generic
CacheCostmodel is unchanged; manager-specific pool geometry remains encapsulated in the V2 estimator.The one-model target/draft joint-reuse fix now present on
mainis also required for correct PARD block-reuse behavior and acceptance length. The PARD integration results below validate the combined behavior after rebasing onto that fix; they do not attribute the acceptance-length improvement to this accounting change alone.Test Coverage
