lmcache_xpu_device

lmcache_xpu_device is an out-of-tree LMCache XPU device plugin published as a wheel.

It carries the LMCache XPU DeviceSpec and DeviceOps implementation so an LMCache checkout can remove its built-in lmcache/v1/platform/xpu package and recover the same runtime behavior by installing this wheel into the same Python environment.

What this package owns

• device_type="xpu" registration through the lmcache.device_plugins entry-point group
• XpuDeviceSpec hardware detection
• XpuDeviceOps lazy binding to lmcache.xpu_ops

What stays in LMCache

• lmcache.xpu_ops native extension build
• XPU GPU connector implementations
• XPU tests and CI orchestration

Build

uv build

The wheel is written to dist/.

Install

Install the wheel into the same environment as LMCache:

uv pip install dist/lmcache_xpu_device-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl

In an Intel XPU environment, LMCache should then resolve the xpu backend through this package's entry point.
