class GPULoadStoreSpec(BlockIDsLoadStoreSpec):
    """
    Spec for loading/storing a KV block to GPU memory.

    If there are multiple KV groups, the blocks are expected to be
    ordered by the group index.
    In that case, group_sizes[i] determines the number of blocks
    per the i-th KV group, and thus sum(group_sizes) == len(block_ids).
    group_sizes=None indicates a single KV group.

    If block_indices is given, each group (determined by group_sizes) of block IDs
    will correspond to logically contiguous blocks, e.g. blocks 5-10 of a some request.
    block_indices[i] will represent the block index of the first block in group #i.
    Thus, len(block_indices) == len(group_sizes) = number of KV cache groups.
    This information is required in order to support off/loading from offloaded blocks
    which are larger than GPU blocks.
    In such cases, the first GPU block per each group may be unaligned to the offloaded
    block size, and so knowing block_indices[i] allows the worker to correctly
    skip part of the first matching offloaded block.
