In vLLM V1, HPU is supported as a plugin.

👋 Hi! Thank you for contributing to the vLLM project.

💬 Join our developer Slack at https://slack.vllm.ai to discuss your PR in #pr-reviews, coordinate on features in #feat- channels, or join special interest groups in #sig- channels.

Just a reminder: PRs would not trigger full CI run by default. Instead, it would only run fastcheck CI which starts running only a small and essential subset of CI tests to quickly catch errors. You can run other CI tests on top of those by going to your fastcheck build on Buildkite UI (linked in the PR checks section) and unblock them. If you do not have permission to unblock, ping simon-mo or khluu to add you in our Buildkite org.

Once the PR is approved and ready to go, your PR reviewer(s) can run CI to test the changes comprehensively before merging.

To run CI, PR reviewers can either: Add ready label to the PR or enable auto-merge.

🚀

Code Review

This pull request effectively removes the V0 HPU backend, which is a significant and welcome cleanup. The changes are mostly removals of HPU-specific files and code paths, and they appear to be correct and self-contained.

I've identified one piece of dead code that was left behind in setup.py and have commented on it directly.

Additionally, my review of the entire codebase (not just the changed files) revealed a few other HPU-related leftovers that were not part of this pull request's diff. Since I cannot comment on files that were not modified, I'm listing them here for your consideration in a follow-up PR:

  • In vllm/config.py, the Device type hint still includes "hpu".
  • In vllm/envs.py, HPU-specific environment variables like VLLM_USE_HPU_CONTIGUOUS_CACHE_FETCH and VLLM_HPU_USE_DELAYED_SAMPLING are still defined.

Addressing these will complete the removal of the HPU backend. Overall, great work on this large-scale refactoring!
