📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe trace-copy tool now accepts configurable timeout and polling interval values. It retries rank-0 trace listings until traces appear or the timeout expires. Tests cover immediate success, delayed success, timeout, empty output, and invalid polling intervals. ChangesProfiler trace polling

- Line 45: Validate args.flush_poll_interval at the entrypoint before computing
max_attempts, and report an actionable configuration error when the interval is
zero or negative. Keep the existing attempt calculation for positive intervals.
- Line 45: Replace the max_attempts-based trace polling with an elapsed-time
deadline derived from args.flush_timeout, and ensure the polling flow performs a
final trace check at the deadline before raising an error.

The vLLM profiler on AMD MI355x hardware can take time to flush trace files to disk after profiling completes. The list_trace_files task now polls for rank-0 traces with configurable flush_timeout (default 120s) and flush_poll_interval (default 10s) instead of failing immediately.

Bound the polling sleep without skipping the final poll.
When flush_timeout=1 and flush_poll_interval=600, a missing result can cause a 600-second sleep. Use the already computed remaining value to bound the sleep. Do not add a now >= deadline check before the next poll. The current loop checks for traces before the post-poll deadline check, so a trace that appears at 115 seconds with a 120-second timeout can still be found by the poll at about 120 seconds.

Summary
Fix the profiler trace flush race condition that causes systemic
RuntimeError: No rank-0 profiler traces foundfailures on the MI355x cluster.Problem
list_trace_filesincopy_profiler_traces/main.pyperforms a single-shotoc exec ... lscheck for rank-0 profiler traces. On AMD MI355x hardware, the ROCm/vLLM profiler flush is slower than expected, so traces may not be written to/tmpby the time the copy operation runs. This causes an immediateRuntimeErrorwith no retry, killing the entire pipeline run — even though the benchmarking workloads completed successfully.This has been a systemic issue across multiple models (Qwen, DeepSeek, Kimi), vLLM versions, and TP configurations on the MI355x cluster throughout October 2026.
