* fix(backend): resolve relative draft_model paths against the models dir
The main model file and mmproj are joined with the configured models
directory before reaching the backend, but draft_model was sent
verbatim. With a relative draft_model in the YAML config, llama.cpp
opens the path from the backend process's CWD and fails with "No such
file or directory", forcing users to hard-code an absolute path.
Mirror the existing mmproj resolution: if draft_model is relative,
join it with modelPath. Absolute paths are passed through unchanged.
Adds an e2e regression test against the mock backend that asserts the
main model file, mmproj, and draft_model all arrive at the backend
resolved to absolute paths.
Closes#9675

* fix(backend): always join draft_model with models dir (drop IsAbs shortcut)
The previous commit kept absolute draft_model paths intact via an
IsAbs check. That left a path-traversal vector open: a user-supplied
YAML config could set draft_model to /etc/passwd (or any other host
file the backend process can read) and the path would be sent through
unchanged.
filepath.Join cleans the leading slash from absolute components, so
joining unconditionally — the way mmproj already does — keeps the
result rooted at the configured models directory regardless of input.
Adds a second e2e spec that feeds an absolute draft_model into the
mock backend and asserts the path is clamped under modelsPath.

* feat(vllm): expose AsyncEngineArgs via generic engine_args YAML map
LocalAI's vLLM backend wraps a small typed subset of vLLM's
AsyncEngineArgs (quantization, tensor_parallel_size, dtype, etc.).
Anything outside that subset -- pipeline/data/expert parallelism,
speculative_config, kv_transfer_config, all2all_backend, prefix
caching, chunked prefill, etc. -- requires a new protobuf field, a
Go struct field, an options.go line, and a backend.py mapping per
feature. That cadence is the bottleneck on shipping vLLM's
production feature set.
Add a generic `engine_args:` map on the model YAML that is
JSON-serialised into a new ModelOptions.EngineArgs proto field and
applied verbatim to AsyncEngineArgs at LoadModel time. Validation
is done by the Python backend via dataclasses.fields(); unknown
keys fail with the closest valid name as a hint.
dataclasses.replace() is used so vLLM's __post_init__ re-runs and
auto-converts dict values into nested config dataclasses
(CompilationConfig, AttentionConfig, ...). speculative_config and
kv_transfer_config flow through as dicts; vLLM converts them at
engine init.
Operators can now write:
engine_args:
data_parallel_size: 8
enable_expert_parallel: true
all2all_backend: deepep_low_latency
speculative_config:
method: deepseek_mtp
num_speculative_tokens: 3
kv_cache_dtype: fp8
without further proto/Go/Python plumbing per field.
Production defaults seeded by hooks_vllm.go: enable_prefix_caching
and enable_chunked_prefill default to true unless explicitly set.
Existing typed YAML fields (gpu_memory_utilization,
tensor_parallel_size, etc.) remain for back-compat; engine_args
overrides them when both are set.

* chore(vllm): pin cublas13 to vLLM 0.20.0 cu130 wheel
vLLM's PyPI wheel is built against CUDA 12 (libcudart.so.12) and won't
load on a cu130 host. Switch the cublas13 build to vLLM's per-tag cu130
simple-index (https://wheels.vllm.ai/0.20.0/cu130/) and pin
vllm==0.20.0. The cu130-flavoured wheel ships libcudart.so.13 and
includes the DFlash speculative-decoding method that landed in 0.20.0.
cublas13 install gets --index-strategy=unsafe-best-match so uv consults
both the cu130 index and PyPI when resolving — PyPI also publishes
vllm==0.20.0, but with cu12 binaries that error at import time.
Verified: Qwen3.5-4B + z-lab/Qwen3.5-4B-DFlash loads and serves chat
completions on RTX 5070 Ti (sm_120, cu130).

* ci(vllm): bot job to bump cublas13 vLLM wheel pin
vLLM's cu130 wheel index URL is itself version-locked
(wheels.vllm.ai/<TAG>/cu130/, no /latest/ alias upstream), so a vLLM
bump means rewriting two values atomically — the URL segment and the
version constraint. bump_deps.sh handles git-sha-in-Makefile only;
add a sibling bump_vllm_wheel.sh and a matching workflow job that
mirrors the existing matrix's PR-creation pattern.
The bumper queries /releases/latest (which excludes prereleases),
strips the leading 'v', and seds both lines unconditionally. When the
file is already on the latest tag the rewrite is a no-op and
peter-evans/create-pull-request opens no PR.

The new engine_args: map plumbs arbitrary AsyncEngineArgs through to

pointers to vLLM's SpeculativeConfig reference and z-lab's drafter
collection.

* fix: Automatically disable mmap for Intel SYCL backends
Fixes issue #9012 where Qwen3.5 models fail to load on Intel Arc GPU
with RPC EOF error.
The Intel SYCL backend has a known issue where mmap enabled causes
the backend to hang. This change automatically disables mmap when
detecting Intel or SYCL backends.
References:

- Documentation mentions: SYCL hangs when mmap: true is set
* feat: Add logging for mmap auto-disable on Intel SYCL backends
As requested in PR review, add xlog.Info call to log when mmap
is automatically disabled for Intel SYCL backends. This helps
with debugging and confirms the auto-disable logic is working.
