On a disaggregated generation server KVCacheManagerV2 sizes its IndexMapper at 2 * max_batch_size * pp_size, so a batch still receiving KV can overlap a batch that is decoding, and the V2 scheduler admits DISAGG_GENERATION_INIT requests against that capacity rather than against the per-iteration request budget. The sequence-slot pool was still sized at max_batch_size, so the generation server could admit roughly twice what it was able to seat. Nothing detects the shortfall at admission time. The seat is claimed much later, once the KV transfer lands, in _prepare_disagg_gen_transmission_complete -> SeqSlotManager.prepare_resources -> add_slot. That runs on the executor's event-loop thread, so the raise kills the thread, the rank stops joining its TP collectives, and the peers block until the hang detector aborts the job 300 s later on an unrelated rank. Mirror the IndexMapper coefficient in compute_max_num_sequences. max() rather than another multiplication: the disagg factor and the attention-DP overlap headroom both cover one extra set of in-flight sequences, so they overlap rather than compose. Aggregated deployments keep their established sizing. Every seat holder on a generation server necessarily holds an IndexMapper slot first: KV is allocated during scheduling, the seat at transmission-complete, and both are released together in the same free_resources fan-out. So a pool matching the IndexMapper's non-reserved capacity can never come up short. Three slot-indexed buffers were still keyed to the attention-DP overlap opt-in rather than to the pool: spec-decode draft_probs via _set_up_spec_metadata and via the engine runner config, and GuidedDecoder's per-request state. Left alone, the wider pool would push py_seq_slot past the end of all three. They now follow max_num_seq_slots, which also closes the same overflow under pipeline parallelism, where slots already reached max_batch_size * pp_size. Finally, validate_seq_slot_pool_covers_admission compares the two bounds when the executor is built, so future drift between the coefficients fails at startup naming both numbers instead of deadlocking under load. It no-ops for the V1 manager, which publishes no admission bound. Exposure is any model running disagg generation with pipeline_parallel_size=1 and enough load to saturate one rank's pool. Attention DP raises the probability rather than changing the mechanism, since each rank owns a private pool and router skew concentrates the load on one of them. test_seq_slot_sizing.py pins this arithmetic but was in no test-db list, so it ran nowhere. Add it to l0_a10, which already carries the other CPU-only executor unit tests; these are pure sizing arithmetic over Mapping and Mock.

Bring PR 18457 in line with the seat-pool sizing in NVIDIA#18983 so the two can land in either order: - compute_max_num_sequences takes 18983's is_disagg term. Disaggregation and the attention-DP overlap headroom both cover one extra set of in-flight sequences, so they are combined with max() rather than multiplied. - KVCacheManagerV2 publishes max_admissible_sequences, the IndexMapper capacity minus the reserved dummy slots, keeping 18457's widened coefficient (disagg, or attention DP with overlap on and no PP). - validate_seq_slot_pool_covers_admission fails at startup when the seat pool is smaller than what admission allows, called just before the SeqSlotManager is built. Keyed on isinstance(int) rather than "is not None" so a Mock cache manager in another module's tests skips the check instead of raising TypeError from a comparison. - Slot-indexed spec-decoding buffers follow model_engine.max_num_seq_slots unconditionally, in _set_up_spec_metadata, _initialize_no_kv_cache_runner and seat_pool_or_none. The pool already exceeds max_batch_size for three independent reasons -- pipeline depth, the overlap headroom and disaggregation -- and those buffers cannot tell them apart, so gating on one of the three sized them at max_batch_size while py_seq_slot ranged over the full pool. - py_executor_creator's max_num_seq_slots fallback recomputes with the disagg term instead of assuming max_batch_size * pp_size. Also merges main (05838ce) and registers test_seq_slot_sizing.py in l0_a10.

Description
This is a port of #18742 to main.
Root cause:
IndexMapperis doubled so a batch receiving KV can overlap a batch decoding), but the sequence-slot pool was still sized at max_batch_size.Fix:
