# ENV Variable Cleanup Analysis - Executive Summary
2025-11-27 03:18:33 +09:00
## Scope
2025-11-26 17:12:41 +09:00
2025-11-27 03:18:33 +09:00
- **Initial sweep:** 221 unique ENV variables across the runtime (getenv()).
- **Current view:** Core features Ultra/BG/HeapV2 are active and must be preserved (A/B gated only).
- **Docs-only cleanup:** 21 documentation-only variables (zero getenv hits) are tracked separately in `SAFE_TO_DELETE_ENV_VARS.md` .

## Key Findings
2025-11-26 17:12:41 +09:00
2025-11-27 03:18:33 +09:00
- **Active, keep**: Ultra path (`core/ultra/*` ), BG spill (`hakmem_batch.c` , `hakmem_tiny_bg_spill.o` ), HeapV2/FrontV2 (`core/front/tiny_heap_v2.h` , `tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h` ) are compiled in and runtime-gated. Removing their ENV toggles would break A/B rollback.
- **SFC is live**: `hakmem_tiny_sfc.o` is built; `HAKMEM_SFC_ENABLE/CAPACITY/REFILL_COUNT/DEBUG/STATS_DUMP/CASCADE_PCT` all drive behavior. Debug getenv duplication remains the top low-risk cleanup.
- **Doc-only set**: 21 proposal-only ENV names (adaptive presets, generic debug knobs, legacy build flags) have no getenv calls; safe to drop from docs with zero runtime impact.
- **Count drift**: Including `.inc` helpers raises the current getenv surface to ~279 names; initial 221 figure is kept as the baseline for this project’ s first pass.

## Quick Wins (low risk, Box-friendly)
2025-11-26 17:12:41 +09:00
2025-11-27 03:18:33 +09:00
- **SFC_DEBUG dedup**: Move the four `HAKMEM_SFC_DEBUG` getenv calls behind one init-time flag (`hakmem_tiny_sfc.c` as the boundary). Reduces hot-path getenvs by 3.
- **Doc hygiene**: Remove the 21 docs-only names from `docs/specs/ENV_VARS*.md` to keep the supported surface visible and reversible.

## Items to Keep as-is (cannot delete)
2025-11-26 17:12:41 +09:00
2025-11-27 03:18:33 +09:00
- **Ultra toggles**: `HAKMEM_TINY_ULTRA_*` , `HAKMEM_ULTRA_SLIM_STATS` — gated experiments but compiled; keep for rollback.
- **BG system**: `HAKMEM_BATCH_BG` , `HAKMEM_L25_BG_DRAIN` , `HAKMEM_L25_BG_MS` — enabled by default; removal would change behavior.
- **HeapV2/FrontV2**: `HAKMEM_TINY_HEAP_V2_*` , `HAKMEM_TINY_FRONT_V2/SLIM/DIRECT/METRICS/DUMP` — active path for tiny frontend; keep.

ENV cleanup: Add RELEASE guards to DEBUG ENV variables (14 vars)
Added compile-time guards (#if HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE) to eliminate
DEBUG ENV variable overhead in RELEASE builds.
Variables guarded (14 total):
- HAKMEM_TINY_TRACE_RING, HAKMEM_TINY_DUMP_RING_ATEXIT
- HAKMEM_TINY_RF_TRACE, HAKMEM_TINY_MAILBOX_TRACE
- HAKMEM_TINY_MAILBOX_TRACE_LIMIT, HAKMEM_TINY_MAILBOX_SLOWDISC
- HAKMEM_TINY_MAILBOX_SLOWDISC_PERIOD
- HAKMEM_SS_PREWARM_DEBUG, HAKMEM_SS_FREE_DEBUG
- HAKMEM_TINY_FRONT_METRICS, HAKMEM_TINY_FRONT_DUMP
- HAKMEM_TINY_COUNTERS_DUMP, HAKMEM_TINY_REFILL_DUMP
- HAKMEM_PTR_TRACE_DUMP, HAKMEM_PTR_TRACE_VERBOSE
Files modified (9 core files):
- core/tiny_debug_ring.c (ring trace/dump)
- core/box/mailbox_box.c (mailbox trace + slowdisc)
- core/tiny_refill.h (refill trace)
- core/hakmem_tiny_superslab.c (superslab debug)
- core/box/ss_allocation_box.c (allocation debug)
- core/tiny_superslab_free.inc.h (free debug)
- core/box/front_metrics_box.c (frontend metrics)
- core/hakmem_tiny_stats.c (stats dump)
- core/ptr_trace.h (pointer trace)
Bug fixes during implementation:
1. mailbox_box.c - Fixed variable scope (moved 'used' outside guard)
2. hakmem_tiny_stats.c - Fixed incomplete declarations (on1, on2)
Impact:
- Binary size: -85KB total
- bench_random_mixed_hakmem: 319K → 305K (-14K, -4.4%)
- larson_hakmem: 380K → 309K (-71K, -18.7%)
- Performance: No regression (16.9-17.9M ops/s maintained)
- Functional: All tests pass (Random Mixed + Larson)
- Behavior: DEBUG ENV vars correctly ignored in RELEASE builds
Testing:
- Build: Clean compilation (warnings only, pre-existing)
- 100K Random Mixed: 16.9-17.9M ops/s (PASS)
- 10K Larson: 25.9M ops/s (PASS)
- DEBUG ENV verification: Correctly ignored (PASS)
Result: 14 DEBUG ENV variables now have zero overhead in RELEASE builds.

1) 残る DEBUG/TRACE/STATS 系 ENV を同様にリリースビルドで無効化 or init 1回読みへ移動。
2) 21個のドキュメント専用変数を `docs/specs/ENV_VARS*.md` から削除。
3) Ultra/BG/HeapV2 は現役のため A/B ゲートを維持したまま、削除は別フェーズで判断。
