kzlin 37e9caa431 docs(kvc): production-decision reframe + formal router algorithm spec
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

Agentic PD Hybrid

这个项目是在 SGLang xPyD 上做一个最小实验框架,用来判断:

面向 agentic coding workload 的 session-aware / KV-cache-aware P/D routing能不能降低端到端延迟。

更完整但仍然简洁的说明见 docs/PROJECT_OVERVIEW.md

当前做了什么

  • 启动单机 SGLang P/D 栈。
  • 回放 Ali coding agent trace并记录 request-level metrics。
  • 支持 defaultstickykv-aware 路由策略。
  • 支持 pd-disaggregationkvcache-centricpd-colo 对比。
  • 支持小 append、多轮 session 的 micro-benchmark trace。
  • 维护了基于 SGLang v0.5.10 的本地 patch放在 third_party/sglang

环境

统一使用 uv

uv sync

默认模型路径:

~/models/Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct

当前主要测试环境是单机 8 GPU约束是 prefill + decode <= 8

常用命令

生成小 append trace

uv run agentic-pd-hybrid make-small-append-trace \
  --output outputs/smoke-hotcap-30k-1k-256.jsonl \
  --session-count 4 \
  --turns-per-session 3 \
  --initial-input-length 30000 \
  --append-input-length 1000 \
  --output-length 256

跑 live benchmark

uv run agentic-pd-hybrid benchmark-live \
  --trace outputs/micro-serveable-varturn-30k-1k-256-20260424T0756Z.jsonl \
  --output-root outputs/live-serveable-varturn-30k-1k-256-hotcap \
  --mechanism kvcache-centric \
  --policy kv-aware \
  --kvcache-admission-mode worker \
  --prefill-workers 1 \
  --decode-workers 1 \
  --prefill-gpu-ids 0 \
  --decode-gpu-ids 1 \
  --transfer-backend mooncake \
  --target-duration-s 2000 \
  --session-sample-rate 1.0 \
  --min-turns 2 \
  --time-scale 1 \
  --concurrency-limit 1000

只回放并写 metrics

uv run agentic-pd-hybrid replay \
  --trace path/to/trace.jsonl \
  --policy kv-aware \
  --mechanism pd-disaggregation \
  --router-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
  --output outputs/replay.jsonl

输出

每次 replay/benchmark 会写:

  • request metricsrequest-metrics.jsonl
  • 汇总结果:request-metrics.jsonl.summary.json

重点看:

  • E2E latency
  • TTFT / TPOT
  • execution mode
  • cached tokens
  • KV transfer blocks
  • error

维护约定

  • 项目代码改动:feat: / fix: / docs:
  • SGLang 改动:feat(sglang): ... / fix(sglang): ...
  • third_party/sglang 的基线是 clean SGLang v0.5.10 snapshot。
  • 不提交 outputs/、日志、__pycache__、虚拟环境。
