- At last, we run [scripts/plot-nightly-results.py](scripts/plot-nightly-results.py) to collect and plot the final benchmarking results, and update the results to buildkite.

+## Manual validations
+
+### E2E Performance Validation
+
+Before each release, we perform end-to-end performance validation to ensure no regressions are introduced. This validation uses the [vllm-benchmark workflow](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch-integration-testing/actions/workflows/vllm-benchmark.yml) on PyTorch CI.
+
+**Current Coverage:**
+
+* Models: Llama3, Llama4, and Mixtral
+* Hardware: NVIDIA H100 and AMD MI300x
+* _Note: Coverage may change based on new model releases and hardware availability_
+
+**Performance Validation Process:**
+
+**Step 1: Get Access**
+Request write access to the [pytorch/pytorch-integration-testing](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch-integration-testing) repository to run the benchmark workflow.
+
+**Step 2: Review Benchmark Setup**
+Familiarize yourself with the benchmark configurations:
+
+* [CUDA setup](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch-integration-testing/tree/main/vllm-benchmarks/benchmarks/cuda)
+* [ROCm setup](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch-integration-testing/tree/main/vllm-benchmarks/benchmarks/rocm)
+
+**Step 3: Run the Benchmark**
+Navigate to the [vllm-benchmark workflow](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch-integration-testing/actions/workflows/vllm-benchmark.yml) and configure:
+
+* **vLLM branch**: Set to the release branch (e.g., `releases/v0.9.2`)
+* **vLLM commit**: Set to the RC commit hash
+
+**Step 4: Review Results**
+Once the workflow completes, benchmark results will be available on the [vLLM benchmark dashboard](https://hud.pytorch.org/benchmark/llms?repoName=vllm-project%2Fvllm) under the corresponding branch and commit.
+
+**Step 5: Performance Comparison**
+Compare the current results against the previous release to verify no performance regressions have occurred. Here is an
+example of [v0.9.1 vs v0.9.2](https://hud.pytorch.org/benchmark/llms?startTime=Thu%2C%2017%20Apr%202025%2021%3A43%3A50%20GMT&stopTime=Wed%2C%2016%20Jul%202025%2021%3A43%3A50%20GMT&granularity=week&lBranch=releases/v0.9.1&lCommit=b6553be1bc75f046b00046a4ad7576364d03c835&rBranch=releases/v0.9.2&rCommit=a5dd03c1ebc5e4f56f3c9d3dc0436e9c582c978f&repoName=vllm-project%2Fvllm&benchmarkName=&modelName=All%20Models&backendName=All%20Backends&modeName=All%20Modes&dtypeName=All%20DType&deviceName=All%20Devices&archName=All%20Platforms).

 # Security Policy

-## Reporting a Vulnerability
+## Reporting security issues

-If you believe you have found a security vulnerability in vLLM, we encourage you to let us know right away. We will investigate all legitimate reports and do our best to quickly fix the problem.
+Please report security issues privately using [the vulnerability submission form](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/security/advisories/new).

-Please report security issues privately using [the vulnerability submission form](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/security/advisories/new). Reports will then be triaged by the [vulnerability management team](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/contributing/vulnerability_management.html).
+## Issue triage

---
+Reports will then be triaged by the [vulnerability management team](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/contributing/vulnerability_management.html).
+
+## Threat model

 Please see the [Security Guide in the vLLM documentation](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/usage/security.html) for more information on vLLM's security assumptions and recommendations.

 Please see [PyTorch's Security Policy](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/SECURITY.md) for more information and recommendations on how to securely interact with models.
+
+## Issue severity
+
+We will determine the risk of each issue, taking into account our experience dealing with past issues, versions affected, common defaults, and use cases. We use the following severity categories:
+
+### CRITICAL Severity
+
+Vulnerabilities that allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, take full control of the system, or significantly compromise confidentiality, integrity, or availability without any interaction or privileges needed, examples include remote code execution via network, deserialization issues that allow exploit chains. Generally those issues which are rated as CVSS  ≥ 9.0.
+
+### HIGH Severity
+
+Serious security flaws that allow elevated impact—like RCE in specific, limited contexts or significant data loss—but require advanced conditions or some trust, examples include RCE in advanced deployment modes (e.g. multi-node), or high impact issues where some sort of privileged network access is required. These issues typically have CVSS scores between 7.0 and 8.9
+
+### MODERATE Severity
+
+Vulnerabilities that cause denial of service or partial disruption, but do not allow arbitrary code execution or data breach and have limited impact. These issues have a CVSS rating between 4.0 and 6.9
+
+### LOW Severity
+
+Minor issues such as informational disclosures, logging errors, non-exploitable flaws, or weaknesses that require local or high-privilege access and offer negligible impact. Examples include side channel attacks or hash collisions. These issues often have CVSS scores less than 4.0
+
+## Prenotification policy
+
+For certain security issues of CRITICAL, HIGH, or MODERATE severity level, we may prenotify certain organizations or vendors that ship vLLM. The purpose of this prenotification is to allow for a coordinated release of fixes for severe issues.
+
+* This prenotification will be in the form of a private email notification. It may also include adding security contacts to the GitHub security advisory, typically a few days before release.
+
+* If you wish to be added to the prenotification group, please send an email copying all the members of the [vulnerability management team](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/contributing/vulnerability_management.html). Each vendor contact will be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
+
+* Organizations and vendors who either ship or use vLLM, are eligible to join the prenotification group if they meet at least one of the following qualifications

-
-**Custom Dataset**
-
-If the dataset you want to benchmark is not supported yet in vLLM, even then you can benchmark on it using `CustomDataset`. Your data needs to be in `.jsonl` format and needs to have "prompt" field per entry, e.g., data.jsonl
-
-```
-{"prompt": "What is the capital of India?"}
-{"prompt": "What is the capital of Iran?"}
-{"prompt": "What is the capital of China?"}
-``` 
-
-```bash
-# start server
-VLLM_USE_V1=1 vllm serve meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct --disable-log-requests
-```
-
-```bash
-# run benchmarking script
-python3 benchmarks/benchmark_serving.py --port 9001 --save-result --save-detailed \
-  --backend vllm \
-  --model meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct \
-  --endpoint /v1/completions \
-  --dataset-name custom \
-  --dataset-path <path-to-your-data-jsonl> \
-  --custom-skip-chat-template \
-  --num-prompts 80 \
-  --max-concurrency 1 \
-  --temperature=0.3 \
-  --top-p=0.75 \
-  --result-dir "./log/"
-```
-
-You can skip applying chat template if your data already has it by using `--custom-skip-chat-template`.

-    "num_speculative_tokens": 5, "prompt_lookup_max": 5,
-    "prompt_lookup_min": 2}'
-```
-
-``` bash

-    --dataset-name hf \
-    --dataset-path philschmid/mt-bench \
-    --num-prompts 80
-```
-
-**Running With Sampling Parameters**
-
-When using OpenAI-compatible backends such as `vllm`, optional sampling
-parameters can be specified. Example client command:
-
-```bash
-python3 vllm/benchmarks/benchmark_serving.py \
-  --backend vllm \
-  --model NousResearch/Hermes-3-Llama-3.1-8B \
-  --endpoint /v1/completions \
-  --dataset-name sharegpt \
-  --dataset-path <your data path>/ShareGPT_V3_unfiltered_cleaned_split.json \
-  --top-k 10 \
-  --top-p 0.9 \
-  --temperature 0.5 \
-  --num-prompts 10
-```
-
-**Running With Ramp-Up Request Rate**
-
-The benchmark tool also supports ramping up the request rate over the
-duration of the benchmark run. This can be useful for stress testing the
-server or finding the maximum throughput that it can handle, given some latency budget.
-
-Two ramp-up strategies are supported:
- `linear`: Increases the request rate linearly from a start value to an end value.
- `exponential`: Increases the request rate exponentially.
-
-The following arguments can be used to control the ramp-up:
- `--ramp-up-strategy`: The ramp-up strategy to use (`linear` or `exponential`).
- `--ramp-up-start-rps`: The request rate at the beginning of the benchmark.
- `--ramp-up-end-rps`: The request rate at the end of the benchmark.

+
+1. **Install Environment**: Install or update the correct running environment. For TPU usage, activate your `conda` environment and install the corresponding `torch` and `torch_xla` versions.
+
+2. **Model Configuration**: If you are using a customized model, ensure its configuration files are correctly placed and accessible.
+
+## Configuration
+
+You must set the following variables at the top of the script before execution.
+
+   Note: You can also override the default values below via environment variables when running the script.
+
+```bash
+MODEL=meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct SYSTEM=TPU TP=8 DOWNLOAD_DIR='' INPUT_LEN=128 OUTPUT_LEN=2048 MAX_MODEL_LEN=2300 MIN_CACHE_HIT_PCT=0 MAX_LATENCY_ALLOWED_MS=100000000000 NUM_SEQS_LIST="128 256" NUM_BATCHED_TOKENS_LIST="1024 2048 4096" VLLM_LOGGING_LEVEL=DEBUG bash auto_tune.sh
+```
+
+| Variable | Description | Example Value |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `BASE` | **Required.** The absolute path to the parent directory of your vLLM repository directory. | `"$HOME"` |
+| `MODEL` | **Required.** The Hugging Face model identifier to be served by vllm. | `"meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct"` |
+| `SYSTEM`| **Required.** The hardware you are running on. Choices: `TPU` or `GPU`. (For other systems, it might not support saving profiles) | `"TPU"` |
+| `TP` | **Required.** The tensor-parallelism size. | `1` |
+| `DOWNLOAD_DIR` | **Required.** Directory to download and load model weights from. | `""` (default download path) |
+| `INPUT_LEN` | **Required.** Request input length. | `4000` |
+| `OUTPUT_LEN` | **Required.** Request output length. | `16` |
+| `MAX_MODEL_LEN` | **Required.** Max model length. | `4096` |
+| `MIN_CACHE_HIT_PCT` | Prefix cache hit rate in percentage (0-100). Set to `0` to disable. | `60` |
+| `MAX_LATENCY_ALLOWED_MS` | The maximum allowed P99 end-to-end latency in milliseconds. Set to a very large number (e.g., `100000000000`) to effectively ignore the latency constraint. | `500` |
+| `NUM_SEQS_LIST` | A space-separated string of `max-num-seqs` values to test. | `"128 256"` |
+| `NUM_BATCHED_TOKENS_LIST` | A space-separated string of `max-num-batched-tokens` values to test. | `"1024 2048 4096"` |
+
+**Note**: The default `NUM_SEQS_LIST` and `NUM_BATCHED_TOKENS_LIST` are set for medium-sized inputs/outputs. For very short contexts (e.g., 20 input, 20 output tokens), you may need to test larger values for `max-num-seqs`.
+
+## How to Run
+
+1. **Configure**: Edit the script and set the variables in the [Configuration](#configuration) section.
+2. **Execute**: Run the script. Since the process can take a long time, it is highly recommended to use a terminal multiplexer like `tmux` or `screen` to prevent the script from stopping if your connection is lost.
+
+```bash
+cd <FOLDER_OF_THIS_SCRIPT>
+bash auto_tune.sh
+```
+
+    Please note that the `bash auto_tune.sh` command cannot contain full or partial path with keyword `vllm`, otherwise `pkill -f vllm` command will also kill this script itself.
+
+## Example Use Cases
+
+Here are a few examples of how to configure the script for different goals:
+
+### 1. Maximize Throughput (No Latency Constraint)
+
+- **Goal**: Find the best `max-num-seqs` and `max-num-batched-tokens` to get the highest possible throughput for 1800 input tokens and 20 output tokens.
+- **Configuration**:
+
+```bash
+INPUT_LEN=1800
+OUTPUT_LEN=20
+MAX_MODEL_LEN=2048
+MIN_CACHE_HIT_PCT=0
+MAX_LATENCY_ALLOWED_MS=100000000000 # A very large number
+```
+
+#### 2. Maximize Throughput with a Latency Requirement
+
+- **Goal**: Find the best server parameters when P99 end-to-end latency must be below 500ms.
+- **Configuration**:
+
+```bash
+INPUT_LEN=1800
+OUTPUT_LEN=20
+MAX_MODEL_LEN=2048
+MIN_CACHE_HIT_PCT=0
+MAX_LATENCY_ALLOWED_MS=500
+```
+
+#### 3. Maximize Throughput with Prefix Caching and Latency Requirements
+
+- **Goal**: Find the best server parameters assuming a 60% prefix cache hit rate and a latency requirement of 500ms.
+- **Configuration**:
+
+```bash
+INPUT_LEN=1800
+OUTPUT_LEN=20
+MAX_MODEL_LEN=2048
+MIN_CACHE_HIT_PCT=60
+MAX_LATENCY_ALLOWED_MS=500
+```
+
+## Output
+
+After the script finishes, you will find the results in a new, timestamped directory created inside `$BASE/auto-benchmark/`.
+
+- **Log Files**: The directory (`$BASE/auto-benchmark/YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM/`) contains detailed logs for each run:
+    - `vllm_log_...txt`: The log output from the vLLM server for each parameter combination.
+    - `bm_log_...txt`: The log output from the `vllm bench serve` command for each benchmark run.
+
+- **Final Result Summary**: A file named `result.txt` is created in the log directory. It contains a summary of each tested combination and concludes with the overall best parameters found.
+
+```text
+# Example result.txt content
+hash:a1b2c3d4...
+max_num_seqs: 128, max_num_batched_tokens: 2048, request_rate: 10.0, e2el: 450.5, throughput: 9.8, goodput: 9.8
+max_num_seqs: 128, max_num_batched_tokens: 4096 does not meet latency requirement 500
+...
+best_max_num_seqs: 256, best_num_batched_tokens: 2048, best_throughput: 12.5, profile saved in: /home/user/vllm/auto-benchmark/2024_08_01_10_30/profile
+```
+
+  If it cannot find the best parameters, the final row will be `best_max_num_seqs: 0, best_num_batched_tokens: 0, best_throughput: 0`. This can be due to either the server not starting properly, or the latency requirement being too strict.
+
+- **Profiler Trace**: A directory named `profile` is created inside the log directory. It contains the profiler trace file (e.g., `.xplane.pb` for TPU or a `.json` trace for GPU) from the single best-performing run.
+
+## How It Works
+
+The script follows a systematic process to find the optimal parameters:
+
+1. **Find Max GPU Memory Utilization**: The script first determines the highest safe `gpu-memory-utilization` (starting from 0.98 and decreasing) that does not cause an Out-Of-Memory (OOM) error when launching the server. This ensures the benchmark runs use the maximum available memory without crashing.
+
+2. **Iterate and Benchmark**: It then enters a nested loop, iterating through every combination of `max-num-seqs` and `max-num-batched-tokens` provided in the configuration lists.
+
+3. **Latency-Aware Throughput Search**: For each parameter combination:
+    - The vLLM server is started.
+    - A benchmark is first run with an infinite request rate (`--request-rate inf`).
+    - If the resulting P99 E2E latency is within the `MAX_LATENCY_ALLOWED_MS` limit, this throughput is considered the maximum for this configuration.
+    - If the latency is too high, the script performs a search by iteratively decreasing the request rate until the latency constraint is met. This finds the highest sustainable throughput for the given parameters and latency requirement.
+
+4. **Track Best Result**: Throughout the process, the script tracks the parameter combination that has yielded the highest valid throughput so far.
+
+5. **Profile Collection**: For the best-performing run, the script saves the vLLM profiler output, which can be used for deep-dive performance analysis with tools like TensorBoard.
+
+## Batched `auto_tune`
+
+The `batch_auto_tune.sh` script allows you to run multiple `auto_tune.sh` experiments sequentially from a single configuration file. It iterates through a list of parameter sets, executes `auto_tune.sh` for each, and records the results back into the input file.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- **jq**: This script requires `jq` to parse the JSON configuration file.
+- **gcloud**: If you plan to upload results to Google Cloud Storage, the `gcloud` CLI must be installed and authenticated.
+
+### How to Run
+
+1. **Create a JSON configuration file**: Create a file (e.g., `runs_config.json`) containing an array of JSON objects. Each object defines the parameters for a single `auto_tune.sh` run.
+
+2. **Execute the script**:
+
+    ```bash
+    bash batch_auto_tune.sh <path_to_json_file> [gcs_upload_path]
+    ```
+
+    - `<path_to_json_file>`: **Required.** Path to your JSON configuration file.
+    - `[gcs_upload_path]`: **Optional.** A GCS path (e.g., `gs://my-bucket/benchmark-results`) where the detailed results and profiles for each run will be uploaded. If this is empty, the results will be available on the local filesystem (see the log for `RESULT_FILE=/path/to/results/file.txt`).
+
+### Configuration File
+
+The JSON configuration file should contain an array of objects. Each object's keys correspond to the configuration variables for `auto_tune.sh` (see the [Configuration table above](#configuration)). These keys will be converted to uppercase environment variables for each run.
+
+Here is an example `runs_config.json` with two benchmark configurations:
+
+```json
+[
+  {
+    "base": "/home/user",
+    "model": "meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct",
+    "system": "TPU", # OR GPU
+    "tp": 8,
+    "input_len": 128,
+    "output_len": 2048,
+    "max_model_len": 2300,
+    "num_seqs_list": "128 256",
+    "num_batched_tokens_list": "8192 16384"
+  },
+  {
+    "base": "/home/user",
+    "model": "meta-llama/Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct",
+    "system": "TPU", # OR GPU
+    "tp": 8,
+    "input_len": 4000,
+    "output_len": 16,
+    "max_model_len": 4096,
+    "num_seqs_list": "64 128",
+    "num_batched_tokens_list": "4096 8192",
+    "max_latency_allowed_ms": 500
+  }
+]
+```
+
+### Output
+
+The script modifies the input JSON file in place, adding the results of each run to the corresponding object. The following fields are added:
+
+- `run_id`: A unique identifier for the run, derived from the timestamp.
+- `status`: The outcome of the run (`SUCCESS`, `FAILURE`, or `WARNING_NO_RESULT_FILE`).
+- `results`: The content of the `result.txt` file from the `auto_tune.sh` run.
+- `gcs_results`: The GCS URL where the run's artifacts are stored (if a GCS path was provided).
+
+A summary of successful and failed runs is also printed to the console upon completion.
