Implement MADV_POPULATE_WRITE fix for SuperSlab allocation
Add support for MADV_POPULATE_WRITE (Linux 5.14+) to force page population AFTER munmap trimming in SuperSlab fallback path. Changes: 1. core/box/ss_os_acquire_box.c (lines 171-201): - Apply MADV_POPULATE_WRITE after munmap prefix/suffix trim - Fallback to explicit page touch for kernels < 5.14 - Always cleanup suffix region (remove MADV_DONTNEED path) 2. core/superslab_cache.c (lines 111-121): - Use MADV_POPULATE_WRITE instead of memset for efficiency - Fallback to memset if madvise fails Testing Results: - Page faults: Unchanged (~145K per 1M ops) - Throughput: -2% (4.18M → 4.10M ops/s with HAKMEM_SS_PREFAULT=1) - Root cause: 97.6% of page faults are from libc memset in initialization, not from SuperSlab memory access Conclusion: MADV_POPULATE_WRITE is effective for SuperSlab memory, but overall page fault bottleneck comes from TLS/shared pool initialization. Startup warmup remains the most effective solution (already implemented in bench_random_mixed.c with +9.5% improvement). 🤖 Generated with Claude Code Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
