Tyler Michael SmithandClaude Opus 4.6 11a13b0fd3 [Docker] Add BUILDER_CUDA_VERSION to decouple build and runtime CUDA versions
Allow compiling csrc/ and extensions (DeepGEMM, EP kernels) with a
different CUDA toolkit than the one shipped in the final runtime image.
BUILDER_CUDA_VERSION controls the devel base image used for compilation,
while CUDA_VERSION selects the runtime base image and PyTorch wheel index.

Override the CUDA_VERSION env var inherited from the nvidia base image in
the build stages so PyTorch index URLs resolve to the runtime version.
Update the CUDA 13.0 release pipeline entries to pass the new arg.

# The vLLM Dockerfile is used to construct vLLM image that can be directly used
# to run the OpenAI compatible server.

# VERSION MANAGEMENT
# =============================================================================
# ARG defaults in this Dockerfile are the source of truth for pinned versions.
# docker/versions.json is auto-generated for use with docker buildx bake.
#
# When updating versions:
# 1. Edit the ARG defaults below
# 2. Run: python tools/generate_versions_json.py
#
# To query versions programmatically:
# jq -r '.variable.CUDA_VERSION.default' docker/versions.json
#
# To build with bake:
# docker buildx bake -f docker/docker-bake.hcl -f docker/versions.json
# =============================================================================
ARG CUDA_VERSION=12.8.1
# BUILDER_CUDA_VERSION controls the CUDA toolkit used to compile csrc/ and
# extensions (DeepGEMM, EP kernels). It can differ from CUDA_VERSION, which
# is the CUDA version shipped in the final runtime image and used to select
# the matching PyTorch wheel.
ARG BUILDER_CUDA_VERSION=12.9.1
ARG PYTHON_VERSION=3.12
# By parameterizing the base images, we allow third-party to use their own
# base images. One use case is hermetic builds with base images stored in
# private registries that use a different repository naming conventions.
#
# Example:
# docker build --build-arg BUILD_BASE_IMAGE=registry.acme.org/mirror/nvidia/cuda:${CUDA_VERSION}-devel-ubuntu20.04
# Important: We build with an old version of Ubuntu to maintain broad
# compatibility with other Linux OSes. The main reason for this is that the
# glibc version is baked into the distro, and binaries built with one glibc
# version are not backwards compatible with OSes that use an earlier version.

# By parameterizing the Deadsnakes repository URL, we allow third-party to use

# third-party to use their own copy of the script stored in a private mirror.

# default indexes. By letting them empty by default, PIP will use its default
# indexes if the build process doesn't override the indexes.
