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-0004: Memory Semantics & Local-HBM Bandwidth Guarantee
|
||
|
||
## Status
|
||
|
||
Accepted
|
||
|
||
## Context
|
||
|
||
Accurately modeling PE↔HBM behavior is essential for kernel latency estimation.
|
||
Each PE has a notion of “local HBM” that must guarantee full HBM bandwidth, independent of intervening on-die fabric bandwidth.
|
||
|
||
## Decision
|
||
|
||
### D1. Local HBM definition
|
||
|
||
- Each PE is assigned a logically defined “local HBM” region.
|
||
- Local HBM corresponds to the pseudo-channel subset directly attached to that PE’s
|
||
router in the NOC mesh (ADR-0017 D4).
|
||
- The path is: PE_DMA → local router → HBM_CTRL (switching overhead only, 0 mesh hops).
|
||
- The mapping (HBM pseudo-channels → PE local regions) is derived from topology configuration.
|
||
|
||
### D2. Local HBM bandwidth guarantee contract
|
||
|
||
- Accesses from a PE to its local HBM MUST guarantee full effective HBM
|
||
read/write bandwidth independent of intervening fabric bandwidth limits.
|
||
- Effective HBM bandwidth = spec bandwidth x efficiency factor.
|
||
The efficiency factor (configured via `hbm_ctrl.attrs.efficiency`, default 0.8)
|
||
models real-world DRAM inefficiencies (refresh cycles, bank conflicts, page
|
||
misses). For example: 256 GB/s spec x 0.8 = 204.8 GB/s effective.
|
||
- The topology builder applies the efficiency factor to router-to-hbm edge
|
||
bandwidth at graph construction time, so all downstream routing and latency
|
||
computation uses the effective value.
|
||
- This guarantee is modeled by:
|
||
- a dedicated logical path and/or service model that enforces HBM BW at the PE-local-HBM interaction point,
|
||
- while still incurring non-zero latency along explicitly modeled components.
|
||
- HBM CTRL internal modeling (PC striping, cut-through, scheduling fidelity)
|
||
is consolidated in ADR-0033 (Latency Model: Assumptions and Known
|
||
Simplifications). The aggregate BW guarantee here remains the contract;
|
||
ADR-0033 documents how the per-PC model realizes it and which scheduler
|
||
effects are intentionally simplified.
|
||
|
||
### D3. Remote PE HBM semantics (intra-cube)
|
||
|
||
- A PE that accesses another PE's local HBM traverses the NOC:
|
||
- PE_DMA → NOC → (fabric hops) → target PE's NOC port → HBM_CTRL
|
||
- NOC bandwidth and hop count may limit remote HBM access relative to local access.
|
||
|
||
### D4. Non-local HBM semantics (inter-cube / inter-SIP)
|
||
|
||
- Accesses from a PE to HBM in a different cube or SIP MAY be limited by:
|
||
- NOC bandwidth within the cube,
|
||
- inter-cube UCIe links,
|
||
- inter-SIP fabric (PCIe/UAL).
|
||
- These paths MUST be explicit and traceable.
|
||
|
||
### D5. Shared SRAM semantics
|
||
|
||
- Each CUBE contains a shared SRAM accessible by all PEs in that CUBE.
|
||
- Access path: PE_DMA → NOC → shared SRAM.
|
||
- Shared SRAM bandwidth is limited by the NOC↔SRAM link bandwidth.
|
||
- Shared SRAM is not part of the HBM address space; it is a separate memory domain.
|
||
|
||
## Verification Notes
|
||
|
||
Tests should cover:
|
||
|
||
- local-HBM case: BW matches HBM BW regardless of fabric BW parameter
|
||
- remote PE HBM case: latency includes mesh hop traversal
|
||
- non-local cases (inter-cube/inter-SIP): BW/latency respond to fabric/link parameters
|
||
- shared SRAM case: access via NOC with correct BW
