When does this happen?

IF Llama-4 generation fails with flex_attention due to dynamic cache initialization causing mask padding errors.

How others solved it

THEN Avoid using attn_implementation='flex_attention' with Llama-4 until the issue is resolved. Use eager or flash_attention instead (though flash_attention may have other mask errors). A fix is proposed in PR #37327 which adjusts the padding logic in make_flex_block_causal_mask to handle dynamic cache.

None (see PR for patch)
