# Pool TLS + Learning Implementation Checklist
## Pre-Implementation Review
### Contract Understanding
- [ ] Read and understand all 4 contracts (A-D) in POOL_TLS_LEARNING_DESIGN.md
- [ ] Identify which contract applies to each code section
- [ ] Review enforcement strategies for each contract
## Phase 1: Ultra-Simple TLS Implementation
### Box 1: TLS Freelist (pool_tls.c)
#### Setup
- [ ] Create `core/pool_tls.c` and `core/pool_tls.h`
- [ ] Define TLS globals: `__thread void* g_tls_pool_head[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES]`
- [ ] Define TLS counts: `__thread uint32_t g_tls_pool_count[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES]`
- [ ] Define default refill counts array
#### Hot Path Implementation
- [ ] Implement `pool_alloc_fast()` - must be 5-6 instructions max
- [ ] Pop from TLS freelist
- [ ] Conditional header write (if enabled)
- [ ] Call refill only on miss
- [ ] Implement `pool_free_fast()` - must be 5-6 instructions max
- [ ] Header validation (if enabled)
- [ ] Push to TLS freelist
- [ ] Optional drain check
#### Contract D Validation
- [ ] Verify Box1 has NO learning code
- [ ] Verify Box1 has NO metrics collection
- [ ] Verify Box1 only exposes public API and internal chain installer
- [ ] No includes of ace_learning.h or pool_refill.h in pool_tls.c
#### Testing
- [ ] Unit test: Allocation/free correctness
- [ ] Performance test: Target 40-60M ops/s
- [ ] Verify hot path is < 10 instructions with objdump
### Box 2: Refill Engine (pool_refill.c)
#### Setup
- [ ] Create `core/pool_refill.c` and `core/pool_refill.h`
- [ ] Import only pool_tls.h public API
- [ ] Define refill statistics (miss streak, etc.)
#### Refill Implementation
- [ ] Implement `pool_refill_and_alloc()`
- [ ] Capture pre-refill state
- [ ] Get refill count (default for Phase 1)
- [ ] Batch allocate from backend
- [ ] Install chain in TLS
- [ ] Return first block
#### Contract B Validation
- [ ] Verify refill NEVER blocks waiting for policy
- [ ] Verify refill only reads atomic policy values
- [ ] No immediate cache manipulation
#### Contract C Validation
- [ ] Event created on stack
- [ ] Event data copied, not referenced
- [ ] No dynamic allocation for events
## Phase 2: Metrics Collection
### Metrics Addition
- [ ] Add hit/miss counters to TLS state
- [ ] Add miss streak tracking
- [ ] Instrument hot path (with ifdef guard)
- [ ] Implement `pool_print_stats()`
### Performance Validation
- [ ] Measure regression with metrics enabled
- [ ] Must be < 2% performance impact
- [ ] Verify counters are accurate
## Phase 3: Learning Integration
### Box 3: ACE Learning (ace_learning.c)
#### Setup
- [ ] Create `core/ace_learning.c` and `core/ace_learning.h`
- [ ] Pre-allocate event ring buffer: `RefillEvent g_event_pool[QUEUE_SIZE]`
- [ ] Initialize MPSC queue structure
- [ ] Define policy table: `_Atomic uint32_t g_refill_policies[CLASSES]`
#### MPSC Queue Implementation
- [ ] Implement `ace_push_event()`
- [ ] Contract A: Check for full queue
- [ ] Contract A: DROP if full (never block!)
- [ ] Contract A: Track drops with counter
- [ ] Contract C: COPY event to ring buffer
- [ ] Use proper memory ordering
- [ ] Implement `ace_consume_events()`
- [ ] Read events with acquire semantics
- [ ] Process and release slots
- [ ] Sleep when queue empty
#### Contract A Validation
- [ ] Push function NEVER blocks
- [ ] Drops are tracked
- [ ] Drop rate monitoring implemented
- [ ] Warning issued if drop rate > 1%
#### Contract B Validation
- [ ] ACE only writes to policy table
- [ ] No immediate actions taken
- [ ] No direct TLS manipulation
- [ ] No blocking operations
#### Contract C Validation
- [ ] Ring buffer pre-allocated
- [ ] Events copied, not moved
- [ ] No malloc/free in event path
- [ ] Clear slot ownership model
#### Contract D Validation
- [ ] ace_learning.c does NOT include pool_tls.h internals
- [ ] No direct calls to Box1 functions
- [ ] Only ace_push_event() exposed to Box2
- [ ] Make notify_learning() static in pool_refill.c
#### Learning Algorithm
- [ ] Implement UCB1 or similar
- [ ] Track per-class statistics
- [ ] Gradual policy adjustments
- [ ] Oscillation detection
### Integration Points
#### Box2 → Box3 Connection
- [ ] Add event creation in pool_refill_and_alloc()
- [ ] Call ace_push_event() after successful refill
- [ ] Make notify_learning() wrapper static
#### Box2 Policy Reading
- [ ] Replace DEFAULT_REFILL_COUNT with ace_get_refill_count()
- [ ] Atomic read of policy (no blocking)
- [ ] Fallback to default if no policy
#### Startup
- [ ] Launch learning thread in hakmem_init()
- [ ] Initialize policy table with defaults
- [ ] Verify thread starts successfully
## Diagnostics Implementation
### Queue Monitoring

## Notes
**Remember**: The goal is an ultra-simple hot path (5-6 cycles) with smart learning that never interferes with performance. When in doubt, favor simplicity and speed over completeness of telemetry.
**Key Principle**: "キャッシュ増やす時だけ学習させる、push して他のスレッドに任せる" - Learning happens only during refill, pushed async to another thread.
