After an independent Opus-agent forensic audit, the previous "(c) 增量
fetch (工程量较大,未实现)" line in V2_DEEP_ANALYSIS §4.2 was understating
the gap. The audit confirmed:
- No D->P KV transfer code exists in the framework at any layer
(agentic_pd_hybrid orchestration, vendored SGLang disaggregation,
or mooncake transport).
- Mooncake MooncakeKVManager has a hard role split: PREFILL = sender,
DECODE = receiver-only loop. `add_transfer_request` asserts the
disaggregation_mode is PREFILL.
- The BaseKVSender / BaseKVReceiver abstraction has no bidirectional slot.
- session_aware_cache.release_session only calls kv_pool_allocator.free()
on eviction -- no serialization, no outbound network call.
- _commit_prefill_backup_residency is only called from the seed/reseed
path (_invoke_kvcache_seeded_router). direct-to-D path never updates
P-side backup state.
- "capacity-backup" policy semantics: it only skips the close on P after
reseed -- the backup is the seed-time static snapshot, never refreshed
by D-side append-prefill activity.
V2_DEEP_ANALYSIS §4.2:
- Decomposed the 3-7s reseed cost into the P-side re-prefill segment
(1.5-3s, dominant) and the P->D mooncake transfer segment (1.5-4s).
- Quantified the realistic effect of enabling RDMA: only the transfer
segment shrinks, reseed reduces to 1.7-3.2s, TTFT p99 ~0.7s, still
loses to DP's 0.43s.
- Replaced the throwaway "(c) incremental fetch" line with a full
paragraph explaining what D->P sync would require, why it's the
largest engineering gap, and that the blocker is SGLang's radix-tree
single-producer assumption, not the network layer.
KVC_ROUTER_ALGORITHM §9:
- Refined Open Question 3 (RDMA) to clarify it only helps the transfer
segment, not the re-prefill segment.
- Added Open Question 4: D->P incremental KV sync as the central
future-work contribution gap, with cited evidence for why it doesn't
currently exist.

After the critic-agent audit, V2_DEEP_ANALYSIS had drifted into an
audit-grade "5 wins / 1 loss / 3 draws" framing that mistook KVC's
deliberate design motifs (cache concentration via session affinity;
prefill-GPU idle as TTFT-stability trade-off) for "comparison
unfairness." This commit corrects the framing back to a production-
decision lens and adds a paper-track formal specification of the
router algorithm.
V2_DEEP_ANALYSIS_ZH.md changes:
- §0 TL;DR: lead with "online coding agent serving should pick
KVC 1P3D"; the only real cost is TTFT p99 long-tail (3x DP) from
the 8.3% mooncake reseed path, mitigable with real RDMA.
- §4 restructured into three buckets:
real costs (TTFT p99 tail, abort accounting now fixed),
counter-arguments to the critic (cache concentration and idle
prefill GPU are design intent, not deficits),
methodology to-do (naive-1P3D control, v2 N>=2 determinism).
- §6 replaces "5/1/3 rescoring" with production decision rationale:
KVC wins on 6 latency/TTFT metrics + lower failure rate; pays
TTFT p99 tail; lists workloads where DP would reverse the call.
- §8 decision points: D1 recommends Yes (accept v2 as milestone);
D8 added: paper motif "KVC trades P idle for TTFT stability."
KVC_ROUTER_ALGORITHM.md (new, paper-track, Chinese narrative + English
algorithm boxes / variable names / theorems for direct paper reuse):
- Problem formulation, system model, full notation
- Algorithm 1 Route: lexicographic-tuple scoring on
(overlap+alpha*sticky, sticky, -inflight, -assigned)
- Algorithm 2 Admit: D-worker autonomous admission deciding
Direct / Seed / Reseed / reject (with reason)
- Algorithm 3 Dispatch: end-to-end orchestration with reset-on-success
(the v2-specific fix that eliminates v1's self-amplifying thrashing)
- Theorem 1 (no permanent starvation) and Theorem 2 (fast-path
determinism), each with a proof sketch
- Comparison table vs vanilla pd-disagg / DP cache-aware
- Anti-patterns ("what KVC explicitly is NOT")
- Open questions for reviewers
- Suggested paper citation phrasing
- Appendix A: algorithm-step to source-file:line crosswalk
