vllm.model_executor.layers.mamba.ops.ssu_dispatch

Dispatch module for Mamba selective state update (SSU) backends.

Provides a unified selective_state_update function that dispatches to either the Triton or FlashInfer backend based on the configured MambaBackendEnum. Follows SGLang's dispatch pattern adapted for vLLM.

Classes:

Functions:

FlashInferSSUBackend

Bases: MambaSSUBackend

FlashInfer-based SSU backend.
