# vLLM V1
**We have started the process of deprecating V0. Please read [RFC #18571](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/18571) for more details.**
V1 is now enabled by default for all supported use cases, and we will gradually enable it for every use case we plan to support. Please share any feedback on [GitHub](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm) or in the [vLLM Slack](https://inviter.co/vllm-slack).
To disable V1, please set the environment variable as: `VLLM_USE_V1=0`, and send us a GitHub issue sharing the reason!

allocate a fixed token budget per request, enabling features like chunked prefills,
prefix caching, and speculative decoding without a strict separation between prefill
and decode phases.

and the majority fall into the following categories. V1 support for these models will be added eventually.
**Embedding Models**
Instead of having a separate model runner, hidden states processor [RFC #12249](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/12249), which is based on global logits processor [RFC #13360](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/13360), has been proposed to enable simultaneous generation and embedding using the same engine instance in V1. It is still in the planning stage.
Initially, we will create a [separate model runner](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/18015) to provide V1 support without conflicting with other ongoing work.
Later, we will consider using [hidden states processor](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/12249), which is based on [global logits processor](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/13360) to enable simultaneous generation and embedding using the same engine instance in V1. [PR #16188](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/16188) is the first step towards enabling this.
**Mamba Models**
Models using selective state-space mechanisms (instead of standard transformer attention)
