GPUStack Runner is library for registering runnable accelerated backends and services in GPUStack.

GPUStack Runner

This repository serves as the Docker image pack center for GPUStack Runner. It provides a collection of Dockerfiles to build images for various inference services across different accelerated backends.

Onboard Services

[!TIP]

• The list below shows the accelerated backends and inference services available in the latest release. For support of backends or services not shown here, please refer to previous release tags.
• Deprecated inference service versions in the latest release are marked with strikethrough formatting. They may still be available in previous releases, and not recommended for new deployments.
• Polished inference service versions in the latest release are marked with bold formatting. If they are using in your deployment, it is recommended to pull the latest images and upgrade.

The following table lists the supported accelerated backends and their corresponding inference services with versions.

Directory Structure

The pack skeleton is organized by backend:

pack
├── {BACKEND 1}
│   └── Dockerfile
├── {BACKEND 2}
│   └── Dockerfile
├── {BACKEND 3}
│   └── Dockerfile
├── ...
│   └── Dockerfile
└── {BACKEND N}
    └── Dockerfile

Dockerfile Convention

Each Dockerfile follows these conventions:

• Begin with comments describing the package logic in steps and usage of build arguments (ARGs).
• Use ARG for all required and optional build arguments. If a required argument is unused, mark it as (PLACEHOLDER).
• Use heredoc syntax for RUN commands to improve readability.

Example Dockerfile Structure

# Describe package logic and ARG usage.
#
ARG PYTHON_VERSION=...                                 # REQUIRED
ARG CMAKE_MAX_JOBS=...                                 # REQUIRED
ARG {OTHERS}                                           # OPTIONAL
ARG {BACKEND}_VERSION=...                              # REQUIRED
ARG {BACKEND}_VERSION_EXTRA=...                        # OPTIONAL
ARG {BACKEND}_ARCHS=...                                # REQUIRED
ARG {BACKEND}_{OTHERS}=...                             # OPTIONAL
ARG {SERVICE}_BASE_IMAGE=...                           # REQUIRED
ARG {SERVICE}_VERSION=...                              # REQUIRED
ARG {SERVICE}_{OTHERS}=...                             # OPTIONAL
ARG {SERVICE}_{FRAMEWORK}_VERSION=...                  # REQUIRED
ARG {SERVICE}_{FRAMEWORK}_{OTHERS}=...                 # OPTIONAL

Docker Image Naming Convention

The Docker image naming convention is as follows:

• Multi-architecture image names: {NAMESPACE}/{REPOSITORY}:{TAG}.
• Single-architecture image tags: {BACKEND}{BACKEND_VERSION%.*}[-{BACKEND_VARIANT}]-{SERVICE}{SERVICE_VERSION}-{OS}-{ARCH}.
• Multi-architecture image tags: {BACKEND}{BACKEND_VERSION%.*}[-{BACKEND_VARIANT}]-{SERVICE}{SERVICE_VERSION}[-dev].
• All names adn tags must be lowercase.

Example

• NAMESPACE: gpustack
• REPOSITORY: runner

Accelerated Backend	OS/ARCH	Inference Service	Single-Arch Image Name	Multi-Arch Image Name
Ascend CANN 910b	linux/amd64	vLLM	gpustack/runner:cann8.1-910b-vllm0.9.2-linux-amd64	gpustack/runner:cann8.1-910b-vllm0.9.2
Ascend CANN 910b	linux/arm64	vLLM	gpustack/runner:cann8.1-910b-vllm0.9.2-linux-arm64	gpustack/runner:cann8.1-910b-vllm0.9.2
NVIDIA CUDA 12.8	linux/amd64	vLLM	gpustack/runner:cuda12.8-910b-vllm0.9.2-linux-amd64	gpustack/runner:cuda12.8-910b-vllm0.9.2
NVIDIA CUDA 12.8	linux/arm64	vLLM	gpustack/runner:cuda12.8-910b-vllm0.9.2-linux-arm64	gpustack/runner:cuda12.8-910b-vllm0.9.2

Build and Release Workflow

1. Build single architecture images for OS/ARCH, e.g. gpustack/runner:cann8.1-910b-vllm0.9.2-linux-amd64.
2. Combine single-architecture images into a multiple architectures image, e.g. gpustack/runner:cann8.1-910b-vllm0.9.2-dev.
3. After testing, rename the multi-architecture image to the final tag, e.g. gpustack/runner:cann8.1-910b-vllm0.9.2.

Integration Process

Ingesting a New Accelerated Backend

To add support for a new accelerated backend:

1. Create a new directory under pack/ named with the new backend.
2. Add a Dockerfile in the new directory following the Dockerfile Convention.
3. Update pack.yml, discard.yml and prune.yml to include the new backend in the build matrix.
4. Update matrix.yml to include the new backend and its variants.
5. Update _RE_DOCKER_IMAGE in runner.py to recognize the new backend.
6. [Optional] Update tests if necessary.

Ingesting a New Inference Service

To add support for a new inference service:

1. Modify the Dockerfile of the relevant backend in pack/{BACKEND}/Dockerfile to include the new service.
2. Update pack.yml to include the new service in the build matrix.
3. Update matrix.yml to include the new service.
4. Update _RE_DOCKER_IMAGE in runner.py to recognize the new service.
5. [Optional] Update tests if necessary.
