ADR: bilingual structure — EN canonical in adr/, KO mirror in adr-ko/

Establish English as the canonical ADR language with Korean translations
held in a parallel docs/adr-ko/ tree as derived artifacts (1:1 mirror).
Promotion from adr-proposed/ to adr/ now writes English to adr/ and the
Korean to adr-ko/; bidirectional sync rule documented in CLAUDE.md.

- Migrate 30 ADRs in docs/adr/: 28 Korean-only translated to English,
  2 bilingual pairs (ADR-0020, ADR-0023) consolidated (.en.md suffix
  dropped). ADR-0023 EN regenerated against KO source which had newer
  HW Realization Notes (D16-D23) section.
- docs/adr-history/ left frozen by design (transitional state).
- CLAUDE.md (Part 2): update ADR Lifecycle for 4-folder layout, mark
  docs/adr-ko/ as a Derived Artifact, add ADR Translation Discipline
  section covering bidirectional sync, conflict resolution (EN wins),
  and proposed-language freedom.
- tools/verify_adr_lang_pairs.py: new verification tool checking pair
  completeness, filename mirroring, ADR-ID match, Status byte-equality.
  Pre-commit hook intentionally not added; run on demand or in CI.
- tests/test_verify_adr_lang_pairs.py: 11 cases including CRLF/LF
  normalization, em-dash title separator, underscore-slug edge case.

# ADR-0002: Routing Distance, Ordering & Bypass Rules
## Status
Accepted
## Date
2026-02-27
## Context
The KernBench Graph Latency Simulator must compare kernel execution time
across different architectures and topologies by computing end-to-end
latency from graph traversal.
To support meaningful comparison:
- routing must be deterministic
- latency must reflect actual interconnect structure
- local vs remote traffic must be distinguishable
- “bypass” optimizations must not undermine debuggability or correctness
The simulator also aims to avoid software-managed metadata and hidden
shortcuts that obscure control paths.
## Decision
### D1. Distance is accumulated latency, not hop count
- Routing “distance” is defined as the **sum of per-node and per-link latency**.
- Hop count alone must not be used for ordering or path selection.
- Size-aware serialization latency (bytes / BW) contributes to distance.
### D2. Routing order is derived from graph traversal
- The chosen route is the path with minimum accumulated latency
given the constructed graph and routing policy.
- Deterministic ordering must be guaranteed for identical inputs
(topology + policy + request).
### D3. Bypass is explicit and graph-represented
- All paths must be explicitly represented in the graph and subject to latency accumulation.
- Example: PE_DMA connects to the NOC router mesh (ADR-0017 D7). All destinations
(HBM, shared SRAM, inter-cube UCIe) are reached via explicit mesh hops.
Local HBM access has minimal hops (switching overhead only); remote access
traverses additional routers.
- Implicit or “magic” bypass paths are disallowed.
### D4. No zero-latency end-to-end paths
- Every routed request must incur **end-to-end** latency > 0.
- Individual fabric segments (e.g., NOC hops) MAY have distance_mm = 0
when the fabric is distributed and distance is not meaningful at that granularity.
This is allowed because other components on the same path (e.g., PE_DMA, SRAM,
UCIe endpoints) contribute non-zero latency, ensuring the end-to-end invariant holds.
- Fully zero-latency end-to-end paths are disallowed, except for explicit
test-only stubs clearly marked as such.
### D5. Policy vs topology responsibility split
- Topology builder:
- defines nodes and links and their latency/BW parameters
- Routing policy:
- selects among available graph paths based on decoded domains
- Routing policy must not assume missing links; missing connectivity
is a topology construction error.
### D6. No software-managed routing metadata
- Routing decisions must not rely on per-request software-managed metadata
that tracks distance, hop count, or ordering outside the graph model.
- All distance/order computation is derived from traversal itself.
## Alternatives Considered
1) **Hop-count based routing**
- Rejected: ignores heterogeneous latency/BW and misrepresents
architectural differences.
2) **Implicit local shortcuts**
- Rejected: breaks debuggability and violates traversal-based latency.
3) **Software-managed distance metadata**
- Rejected: increases control overhead and obscures routing semantics.
## Consequences
### Positive
- Clear, debuggable hop-by-hop traces (SPEC R2, R4).
- Architecture comparisons reflect real interconnect structure.
- Routing behavior is reproducible and deterministic.
### Tradeoffs / Costs
- Graph construction must be correct and complete.
- Bypass modeling requires explicit graph representation,
which slightly increases topology description complexity.
## Implementation Notes (Non-normative)
- Recommended responsibilities:
- Graph builder: ensure all required paths exist.
- Router: select next hop based on decoded domains and policy.
- Tests should assert:
- non-zero end-to-end latency
- deterministic routing for identical inputs
- bypass paths appear explicitly in emitted traces
