Generate subcommand is not yet supported for model

Error message

Generate subcommand is not yet supported for model: {model_path}

What it means

Raised by `sglang.gen` when the requested model architecture has no dedicated generation entry point registered. Only specific model families are wired into the generate subcommand; use `sglang.gen` with a supported model or serve the model and query it via the OpenAI-compatible API instead.

Solutions

1. Use an even TP size within 2-8
2. Disable the deterministic custom allreduce for unsupported topologies
3. Verify GPU visibility/env masks

assert fa.world_size_ in (2,4,6,8), 'deterministic fp16 allreduce needs TP in (2,4,6,8)'

When it happens

Trigger: Deterministic allreduce on fp16 tensors with fa->world_size_ outside {2,4,6,8}.

Common situations: --enable-deterministic-inference with TP=3/5/7 or >8 GPUs on ROCm; misdetected world size from bad visibility masks.
