  • Bump the NGC PyTorch base image to 26.09-py3; the Triton base image stays on 26.08-py3 until its 26.09 release is published.
  • Bump the CUDA base image tags to 13.4.1.
  • Align cuDNN 9.26.0.51, NCCL 2.31.2 and cuBLAS 13.8.0.4 with 26.09.
  • Relax the nvidia-nccl-cu13 pin to >=2.30.7,<=2.31.2 so the NGC image keeps its own NCCL version while public torch 2.14.0 still resolves.

Dev Engineer Review

The PyTorch base image and Jenkins test image now use 26.09-py3. The Triton base image remains at 26.08-py3. CUDA base image tags move to 13.4.1, and the cuDNN, NCCL, and cuBLAS pins align with CUDA 13.4. The nvidia-nccl-cu13 requirement now allows versions from 2.30.7 through 2.31.2.

The Mooncake install script removes the CMake-generated mooncake package because its extension can take import precedence over the wheel package. Verify that the cleanup path targets only that generated package and preserves the wheel-based client.

The supplied CI reports failed merge-request pipelines for commits 40c82c4, dcafd15, and bbec16d. The helper job for dcafd15 succeeded, but its pipeline failed. Advisory semantic reviews returned PASS for their inspected paths. They did not run builds or tests, or verify registry contents, package availability, Mooncake wheel payloads, or generated-kernel binary compatibility.

QA Engineer Review

No test changes.

Per-File QA Perspective

  • docker/Dockerfile.multi: Verify that the default PyTorch image resolves to 26.09-py3. The Triton base image remains at 26.08-py3.
  • docker/Makefile: Verify that the Jenkins Rocky Linux 8, Rocky Linux 8, Ubuntu 22, and Ubuntu 24 targets use CUDA base image tag 13.4.1.
  • docker/common/install_cuda_libs.sh: Verify installation of cuDNN 9.26.0.51-1, NCCL 2.31.2-1+cuda13.4, and cuBLAS 13.8.0.4-1.
  • docker/common/install_mooncake.sh: Verify that cleanup removes only the CMake-generated mooncake package. Confirm that the wheel-based client remains usable.
  • docker/common/install_pytorch.sh: The release-notes comment now points to release 26-09. No runtime behavior change is described.
  • jenkins/L0_Test.groovy: Verify that the L0 test job selects the 26.09-py3 PyTorch image.
  • requirements.txt: Verify dependency resolution with NCCL versions in the >=2.30.7,<=2.31.2 range. The Triton pin remains 3.8.0.
  • jenkins/current_image_tags.properties: Verify that CI resolves the refreshed image references to the intended staged images. The current image tag entries were retagged for this PR.

Walkthrough

Docker build targets, CUDA library pins, PyTorch references, and Jenkins image tags use updated versions. The NCCL requirement becomes a version range. The Mooncake installation script locates and removes a generated package directory.

Changes

Runtime version updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
CUDA image tags and library pins
docker/Makefile, docker/common/install_cuda_libs.sh
Four Docker build targets use CUDA 13.4.1 tags. The cuDNN, NCCL, and cuBLAS package versions are updated.
PyTorch release and dependency references
docker/Dockerfile.multi, docker/common/install_pytorch.sh, jenkins/L0_Test.groovy, requirements.txt, jenkins/current_image_tags.properties
The default and test PyTorch images move to release 26-09. PyTorch and Triton release-note references are updated. The NCCL requirement allows versions from 2.30.7 through 2.31.2. All five Jenkins image tags use a new build identifier.

Mooncake package cleanup

Layer / File(s) Summary
Locate and remove generated package
docker/common/install_mooncake.sh
The script derives a Mooncake package path from the first Python sys.path entry containing packages, logs the path, and recursively removes it.

Do you mean if the cuda installation will be skipped if the cuda version in the OS is exact what we want?
Yes, I checked the log when build image for rockylinux:

Semantic conflict review

The verdict of record is the Semantic conflict with target branch / PR #19679 commit status on the requested head commit. This summary updates on reply events and may lag between a new request and its reply.

Latest recorded state: No semantic conflict found (best effort) for head bbec16dec3968414565bbf301b00ddb6c3d80fc2, target a81da8a5a8380c4ec8c2d3eafabb8cfc55d7ad56, merge base 5054e82a6d0bce61b2078f931ec54b100969e97a (request c457dee9-47f5-43a6-bda4-e0c3f2097ec2). CodeRabbit analysis.

Best-effort AI judgment for the recorded revisions. PASS, FAIL and INCONCLUSIVE may be incomplete or incorrect. PR authors and reviewers should independently verify the evidence and relevant behavior. This semantic review and its status/workflow are advisory, not required merge checks under current repository rules; other merge requirements still apply. Advisory status does not make a confirmed defect safe to ignore.

- Bump the NGC PyTorch base image to 26.09-py3; the Triton base image stays
  on 26.08-py3 until its 26.09 release is published.
- Bump the CUDA base image tags to 13.4.1.
- Align cuDNN 9.26.0.51, NCCL 2.31.2 and cuBLAS 13.8.0.4 with 26.09.
- Relax the nvidia-nccl-cu13 pin to >=2.30.7,<=2.31.2 so the NGC image
  keeps its own NCCL version while public torch 2.14.0 still resolves.

The Mooncake source build installs a `mooncake` Python package that lacks
libmooncake_store.so, so `import mooncake.store` from it fails, and its
interpreter-tagged extension would shadow the one from the Mooncake Python
wheel. Remove it after the source build so the devel image is ready for the
wheel-based client without another image rebuild.
