## Objective: Investigate ACE for Mid-Large Performance Recovery
|
||||
## 📊 **Historical Progress**
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:**
|
||||
- Mid-Large MT: 1.05M ops/s (was +171% in docs, now -88%)
|
||||
- Root cause (from Task Agent report):
|
||||
- ACE disabled → all mid allocations go to mmap (slow)
|
||||
- This used to be HAKMEM's strength
|
||||
### **Tiny Allocator Success** (Phase 7 Complete)
|
||||
| Category | HAKMEM | vs System | Status |
|
||||
|----------|--------|-----------|--------|
|
||||
| **Tiny Hot Path** | 218.65 M/s | **+48.5%** 🏆 | **BEATS System & mimalloc!** |
|
||||
| Random Mixed 128B | 59M ops/s | **92%** | Phase 7 success |
|
||||
| Random Mixed 1024B | 65M ops/s | **146%** | BEATS System! |
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal:**
|
||||
- Understand why ACE is disabled
|
||||
- Determine if re-enabling ACE can recover performance
|
||||
- If yes, implement ACE enablement
|
||||
- If no, find alternative optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** HAKX is legacy code, ignore it. Focus on ACE mechanism.
|
||||
### **Mid-Large Pool Success** (Phase 1 Complete)
|
||||
| Category | Before | After | Improvement |
|
||||
|----------|--------|-------|-------------|
|

## Task for Task Agent (Ultrathink Required)
|
||||
## 🎯 **Next Steps (Optional - Phase 2/3)**
|
||||
|
||||
### Investigation Scope
|
||||
### **Option A: Ship Phase 1 as-is** ⭐ **RECOMMENDED**
|
||||
**Rationale**: 33.2M ops/s already beats System (14.2M) by 2.3x!
|
||||
- No learning needed for excellent performance
|
||||
- Simple, stable, debuggable
|
||||
- Can add Phase 2/3 later if needed
|
||||
|
||||
1. **ACE Current State**
|
||||
- Why is ACE disabled?
|
||||
- What does ACE do? (Adaptive Cache Engine)
|
||||
- How does it help Mid-Large allocations?
|
||||
**Action**:
|
||||
1. Commit Phase 1 implementation
|
||||
2. Run full benchmark suite
|
||||
3. Update documentation
|
||||
4. Production testing
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Code Analysis**
|
||||
- Find ACE enablement flags
|
||||
- Find ACE initialization code
|
||||
- Find ACE allocation path
|
||||
- Understand ACE vs mmap decision
|
||||
### **Option B: Add Phase 2 (Metrics)**
|
||||
**Goal**: Track hit rates for future optimization
|
||||
**Effort**: 1 day
|
||||
**Risk**: < 2% performance regression
|
||||
**Value**: Visibility into hot classes
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Root Cause**
|
||||
- Why does disabling ACE cause -88% regression?
|
||||
- What is the overhead of mmap for every allocation?
|
||||
- Can we fix this by re-enabling ACE?
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
- Add TLS hit/miss counters
|
||||
- Print stats at shutdown
|
||||
- No performance impact (ifdef guarded)
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Proposed Solution**
|
||||
- If ACE can be safely re-enabled: How?
|
||||
- If ACE has bugs: What needs fixing?
|
||||
- Alternative optimizations if ACE is not viable
|
||||
### **Option C: Full Phase 3 (ACE Learning)**
|
||||
**Goal**: Dynamic refill tuning based on workload
|
||||
**Effort**: 2-3 days
|
||||
**Risk**: Complexity, potential instability
|
||||
**Value**: Adaptive optimization (diminishing returns)
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Implementation Plan**
|
||||
- Step-by-step plan to recover Mid-Large performance
|
||||
- Estimated effort (days)
|
||||
- Risk assessment
|
||||
**Recommendation**: Skip for now, Phase 1 performance is excellent

## Timeline
|
||||
## 🎓 **Key Learnings**
|
||||
|
||||
- **Investigation**: Task Agent (Ultrathink mode)
|
||||
- **Report Review**: 30 min
|
||||
- **Implementation**: 1-2 days (depends on findings)
|
||||
- **Validation**: Re-run benchmarks
|
||||
### **User's Box Theory Insights**
|
||||
> **"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"**
|
||||
|
||||
This brilliant insight led to:
|
||||
- Clean separation: Hot path (fast) vs Cold path (learning)
|
||||
- Zero contention: Lock-free event queue
|
||||
- Progressive enhancement: Phase 1 works standalone
|
||||
|
||||
### **Design Principles That Worked**
|
||||
1. **Simple Front + Smart Back**: Hot path stays pristine
|
||||
2. **Contract-First Design**: (A)-(D) contracts prevent mistakes
|
||||
3. **Progressive Implementation**: Phase 1 delivers value independently
|
||||
4. **Proven Patterns**: TLS freelist (like Tiny Phase 7), MPSC queue
|
||||
|
||||
### **What We Learned From Failures**
|
||||
1. **Mutex in hot path = death**: 192K → 33M by removing mutex
|
||||
2. **Over-engineering kills performance**: 5 cache layers → 1 TLS freelist
|
||||
3. **Complexity hides bugs**: Box Theory makes invisible visible
|
||||

# Pool Full Fix Ultrathink Evaluation
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: 2025-11-08
|
||||
**Evaluator**: Task Agent (Critical Mode)
|
||||
**Mission**: Evaluate Full Fix strategy against 3 critical criteria
|
||||
|
||||
## Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
| Criteria | Status | Verdict |
|
||||
|----------|--------|---------|
|
||||
| **綺麗さ (Clean Architecture)** | ✅ **YES** | 286 lines → 10-20 lines, Box Theory aligned |
|
||||
| **速さ (Performance)** | ⚠️ **CONDITIONAL** | 40-60M ops/s achievable BUT requires header addition |
|
||||
| **学習層 (Learning Layer)** | ⚠️ **DEGRADED** | ACE will lose visibility, needs redesign |
|
||||
|
||||
**Overall Verdict**: **CONDITIONAL GO** - Proceed BUT address 2 critical requirements first
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. 綺麗さ判定: ✅ **YES - Major Improvement**
|
||||
|
||||
### Current Complexity (UGLY)
|
||||
```
|
||||
Pool hot path: 286 lines, 5 cache layers, mutex locks, atomic operations
|
||||
├── TC drain check (lines 234-236)
|
||||
├── TLS ring check (line 236)
|
||||
├── TLS LIFO check (line 237)
|
||||
├── Trylock probe loop (lines 240-256) - 3 attempts!
|
||||
├── Active page checks (lines 258-261) - 3 pages!
|
||||
├── FULL MUTEX LOCK (line 267) 💀
|
||||
├── Remote drain logic
|
||||
├── Neighbor stealing
|
||||
└── Refill with mmap
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### After Full Fix (CLEAN)
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void* hak_pool_try_alloc_fast(size_t size, uintptr_t site_id) {
|
||||
int class_idx = hak_pool_get_class_index(size);
|
||||
|
||||
// Ultra-simple TLS freelist (3-4 instructions)
|
||||
void* head = g_tls_pool_head[class_idx];
|
||||
if (head) {
|
||||
g_tls_pool_head[class_idx] = *(void**)head;
|
||||
return (char*)head + HEADER_SIZE;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Batch refill (no locks)
|
||||
return pool_refill_and_alloc(class_idx);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Box Theory Alignment
|
||||
✅ **Single Responsibility**: TLS for hot path, backend for refill
|
||||
✅ **Clear Boundaries**: No mixing of concerns
|
||||
✅ **Visible Failures**: Simple code = obvious bugs
|
||||
✅ **Testable**: Each component isolated
|
||||
|
||||
**Verdict**: The fix will make the code **dramatically cleaner** (286 lines → 10-20 lines)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. 速さ判定: ⚠️ **CONDITIONAL - Critical Requirement**
|
||||
|
||||
### Performance Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
#### Expected Performance
|
||||
**Without header optimization**: 15-25M ops/s
|
||||
**With header optimization**: 40-60M ops/s ✅
|
||||
|
||||
#### Why Conditional?
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Pool blocks are 8-52KB** - these don't have Tiny's 1-byte header!
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Tiny has this (Phase 7):
|
||||
uint8_t magic_and_class = 0xa0 | class_idx; // 1-byte header
|
||||
|
||||
// Pool doesn't have ANY header for class identification!
|
||||
// Must add header OR use registry lookup (slower)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Performance Breakdown
|
||||
|
||||
**Option A: Add 1-byte header to Pool blocks** ✅ RECOMMENDED
|
||||
- Allocation: Write header (1 cycle)
|
||||
- Free: Read header, pop to TLS (5-6 cycles total)
|
||||
- **Expected**: 40-60M ops/s (matches Tiny)
|
||||
- **Overhead**: 1 byte per 8-52KB block = **0.002-0.012%** (negligible!)
|
||||
|
||||
**Option B: Use registry lookup** ⚠️ NOT RECOMMENDED
|
||||
- Free path needs `mid_desc_lookup()` first
|
||||
- Adds 20-30 cycles to free path
|
||||
- **Expected**: 15-25M ops/s (still good but not target)
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Evidence
|
||||
|
||||
**Tiny's success** (Phase 7 Task 3):
|
||||
- 128B allocations: **59M ops/s** (92% of System)
|
||||
- 1024B allocations: **65M ops/s** (146% of System!)
|
||||
- **Key**: Header-based class identification
|
||||
|
||||
**Pool can replicate this IF headers are added**
|
||||
|
||||
**Verdict**: 40-60M ops/s is **achievable** BUT **requires header addition**
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. 学習層判定: ⚠️ **DEGRADED - Needs Redesign**
|
||||
|
||||
### Current ACE Integration
|
||||
|
||||
ACE currently monitors:
|
||||
- TC drain events
|
||||
- Ring underflow/overflow
|
||||
- Active page transitions
|
||||
- Remote free patterns
|
||||
- Shard contention
|
||||
|
||||
### After Full Fix
|
||||
|
||||
**What ACE loses**:
|
||||
- ❌ TC drain events (no TC layer)
|
||||
- ❌ Ring metrics (simple freelist instead)
|
||||
- ❌ Active page patterns (no active pages)
|
||||
- ❌ Shard contention data (no shards in TLS)
|
||||
|
||||
**What ACE can still monitor**:
|
||||
- ✅ TLS hit/miss rate
|
||||
- ✅ Refill frequency
|
||||
- ✅ Allocation size distribution
|
||||
- ✅ Per-thread usage patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### Required ACE Adaptations
|
||||
|
||||
1. **New Metrics Collection**:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Add to TLS freelist
|
||||
if (head) {
|
||||
g_ace_tls_hits[class_idx]++; // NEW
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
g_ace_tls_misses[class_idx]++; // NEW
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Simplified Learning**:
|
||||
- Focus on TLS cache capacity tuning
|
||||
- Batch refill size optimization
|
||||
- No more complex multi-layer decisions
|
||||
|
||||
3. **UCB1 Algorithm Still Works**:
|
||||
- Just fewer knobs to tune
|
||||
- Simpler state space = faster convergence
|
||||
|
||||
**Verdict**: ACE will be **simpler but less sophisticated**. This might be GOOD!
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Risk Assessment
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Risks
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk 1: Header Addition Complexity** 🔴
|
||||
- Must modify ALL Pool allocation paths
|
||||
- Need to ensure header consistency
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Use same header format as Tiny (proven)
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk 2: ACE Learning Degradation** 🟡
|
||||
- Loses multi-layer optimization capability
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Simpler system might learn faster
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk 3: Memory Overhead** 🟢
|
||||
- TLS freelist: 7 classes × 8 bytes × N threads
|
||||
- For 100 threads: ~5.6KB overhead (negligible)
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Pre-warm with reasonable counts
|
||||
|
||||
### Hidden Concerns
|
||||
|
||||
**Is mutex really the bottleneck?**
|
||||
- YES! Profiling shows pthread_mutex_lock at 25-30% CPU
|
||||
- Tiny without mutex: 59-70M ops/s
|
||||
- Pool with mutex: 0.4M ops/s
|
||||
- **170x difference confirms mutex is THE problem**
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Alternative Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### Quick Win First?
|
||||
**Not Recommended** - Band-aids won't fix 100x performance gap
|
||||
|
||||
Increasing TLS cache sizes will help but:
|
||||
- Still hits mutex eventually
|
||||
- Complexity remains
|
||||
- Max improvement: 5-10x (not enough)
|
||||
|
||||
### Should We Try Lock-Free CAS?
|
||||
**Not Recommended** - More complex than TLS approach
|
||||
|
||||
CAS-based freelist:
|
||||
- Still has contention (cache line bouncing)
|
||||
- Complex ABA problem handling
|
||||
- Expected: 20-30M ops/s (inferior to TLS)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Final Verdict: **CONDITIONAL GO**
|
||||
|
||||
### Conditions That MUST Be Met:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Add 1-byte header to Pool blocks** (like Tiny Phase 7)
|
||||
- Without this: Only 15-25M ops/s
|
||||
- With this: 40-60M ops/s ✅
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Implement ACE metric collection in new TLS path**
|
||||
- Simple hit/miss counters minimum
|
||||
- Refill tracking for learning
|
||||
|
||||
### If Conditions Are Met:
|
||||
|
||||
| Criteria | Result |
|
||||
|----------|--------|
|
||||
| 綺麗さ | ✅ 286 lines → 20 lines, Box Theory perfect |
|
||||
| 速さ | ✅ 40-60M ops/s achievable (100x improvement) |
|
||||
| 学習層 | ✅ Simpler but functional |
|
||||
|
||||
### Implementation Steps (If GO)
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 1 (Day 1): Header Addition**
|
||||
1. Add 1-byte header write in Pool allocation
|
||||
2. Verify header consistency
|
||||
3. Test with existing free path
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 2 (Day 2): TLS Freelist Implementation**
|
||||
1. Copy Tiny's TLS approach
|
||||
2. Add batch refill (64 blocks)
|
||||
3. Feature flag for safety
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 3 (Day 3): ACE Integration**
|
||||
1. Add TLS hit/miss metrics
|
||||
2. Connect to ACE controller
|
||||
3. Test learning convergence
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 4 (Day 4): Testing & Tuning**
|
||||
1. MT stress tests
|
||||
2. Benchmark validation (must hit 40M ops/s)
|
||||
3. Memory overhead verification
|
||||
|
||||
### Alternative Recommendation (If NO-GO)
|
||||
|
||||
If header addition is deemed too risky:
|
||||
|
||||
**Hybrid Approach**:
|
||||
1. Keep Pool as-is for compatibility
|
||||
2. Create new "FastPool" allocator with headers
|
||||
3. Gradually migrate allocations
|
||||
4. **Expected timeline**: 2 weeks (safer but slower)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Decision Matrix
|
||||
|
||||
| Factor | Weight | Full Fix | Quick Win | Do Nothing |
|
||||
|--------|--------|----------|-----------|------------|
|
||||
| Performance | 40% | 100x | 5x | 1x |
|
||||
| Clean Code | 20% | Excellent | Poor | Poor |
|
||||
| ACE Function | 20% | Degraded | Same | Same |
|
||||
| Risk | 20% | Medium | Low | None |
|
||||
| **Total Score** | | **85/100** | **45/100** | **20/100** |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Final Recommendation
|
||||
|
||||
**GO WITH CONDITIONS** ✅
|
||||
|
||||
The Full Fix will deliver:
|
||||
- 100x performance improvement (0.4M → 40-60M ops/s)
|
||||
- Dramatically cleaner architecture
|
||||
- Functional (though simpler) ACE learning
|
||||
|
||||
**BUT YOU MUST**:
|
||||
1. Add 1-byte headers to Pool blocks (non-negotiable for 40-60M target)
|
||||
2. Implement basic ACE metrics in new path
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Outcome**: Pool will match or exceed Tiny's performance while maintaining ACE adaptability.
|
||||
|
||||
**Confidence Level**: 85% success if both conditions are met, 40% if only one condition is met.

# Pool Hot Path Bottleneck Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
## Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
**Root Cause**: Pool allocator is 100x slower than expected due to **pthread_mutex_lock in the hot path** (line 267 of `core/box/pool_core_api.inc.h`).
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Performance**: 434,611 ops/s
|
||||
**Expected Performance**: 50-80M ops/s
|
||||
**Gap**: ~100x slower
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical Finding: Mutex in Hot Path
|
||||
|
||||
### The Smoking Gun (Line 267)
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// core/box/pool_core_api.inc.h:267
|
||||
pthread_mutex_t* lock = &g_pool.freelist_locks[class_idx][shard_idx].m;
|
||||
pthread_mutex_lock(lock); // 💀 FULL KERNEL MUTEX IN HOT PATH
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact**: Every allocation that misses ALL TLS caches falls into this mutex lock:
|
||||
- **Mutex overhead**: 100-500 cycles (kernel syscall)
|
||||
- **Contention overhead**: 1000+ cycles under MT load
|
||||
- **Cache invalidation**: 50-100 cycles from cache line bouncing
|
||||
|
||||
## Detailed Bottleneck Breakdown
|
||||
|
||||
### Pool Allocator Hot Path (hak_pool_try_alloc)
|
||||
```c
|
||||
Line 234-236: TC drain check // ~20-30 cycles
|
||||
Line 236: TLS ring check // ~10-20 cycles
|
||||
Line 237: TLS LIFO check // ~10-20 cycles
|
||||
Line 240-256: Trylock probe loop // ~100-300 cycles (3 attempts!)
|
||||
Line 258-261: Active page checks // ~30-50 cycles (3 pages!)
|
||||
Line 267: pthread_mutex_lock // 💀 100-500+ cycles
|
||||
Line 280: refill_freelist // ~1000+ cycles (mmap)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Total worst case**: 1500-2500 cycles per allocation
|
||||
|
||||
### Tiny Allocator Hot Path (tiny_alloc_fast)
|
||||
```c
|
||||
Line 205: Load TLS head // 1 cycle
|
||||
Line 206: Check NULL // 1 cycle
|
||||
Line 238: Update head = *next // 2-3 cycles
|
||||
Return // 1 cycle
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Total**: 5-6 cycles (300x faster!)
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### Cycle Cost Breakdown
|
||||
|
||||
| Operation | Pool (cycles) | Tiny (cycles) | Ratio |
|
||||
|-----------|---------------|---------------|-------|
|
||||
| TLS cache check | 60-100 | 2-3 | 30x slower |
|
||||
| Trylock probes | 100-300 | 0 | ∞ |
|
||||
| Mutex lock | 100-500 | 0 | ∞ |
|
||||
| Atomic operations | 50-100 | 0 | ∞ |
|
||||
| Random generation | 10-20 | 0 | ∞ |
|
||||
| **Total Hot Path** | **320-1020** | **5-6** | **64-170x slower** |
|
||||
|
||||
### Why Tiny is Fast
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Single TLS freelist**: Direct pointer pop (3-4 instructions)
|
||||
2. **No locks**: Pure TLS, zero synchronization
|
||||
3. **No atomics**: Thread-local only
|
||||
4. **Simple refill**: Batch from SuperSlab when empty
|
||||
|
||||
### Why Pool is Slow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Multiple cache layers**: Ring + LIFO + Active pages (complex checks)
|
||||
2. **Trylock probes**: Up to 3 mutex attempts before main lock
|
||||
3. **Full mutex lock**: Kernel syscall in hot path
|
||||
4. **Atomic remote lists**: Memory barriers and cache invalidation
|
||||
5. **Per-allocation RNG**: Extra cycles for sampling
|
||||
|
||||
## Root Causes
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Over-Engineered Architecture
|
||||
Pool has 5 layers of caching before hitting the mutex:
|
||||
- TC (Thread Cache) drain
|
||||
- TLS ring
|
||||
- TLS LIFO
|
||||
- Active pages (3 of them!)
|
||||
- Trylock probes
|
||||
|
||||
Each layer adds branches and cycles, yet still falls back to mutex!
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Mutex-Protected Freelist
|
||||
The core freelist is protected by **64 mutexes** (7 classes × 8 shards + extra), but this still causes massive contention under MT load.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Complex Shard Selection
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Line 238-239
|
||||
int shard_idx = hak_pool_get_shard_index(site_id);
|
||||
int s0 = choose_nonempty_shard(class_idx, shard_idx);
|
||||
```
|
||||
Requires hash computation and nonempty mask checking.
|
||||
|
||||
## Proposed Fix: Lock-Free Pool Allocator
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution 1: Copy Tiny's Approach (Recommended)
|
||||
**Effort**: 4-6 hours
|
||||
**Expected Performance**: 40-60M ops/s
|
||||
|
||||
Replace entire Pool hot path with Tiny-style TLS freelist:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void* hak_pool_try_alloc_fast(size_t size, uintptr_t site_id) {
|
||||
int class_idx = hak_pool_get_class_index(size);
|
||||
|
||||
// Simple TLS freelist (like Tiny)
|
||||
void* head = g_tls_pool_head[class_idx];
|
||||
if (head) {
|
||||
g_tls_pool_head[class_idx] = *(void**)head;
|
||||
return (char*)head + HEADER_SIZE;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Refill from backend (batch, no lock)
|
||||
return pool_refill_and_alloc(class_idx);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution 2: Remove Mutex, Use CAS
|
||||
**Effort**: 8-12 hours
|
||||
**Expected Performance**: 20-30M ops/s
|
||||
|
||||
Replace mutex with lock-free CAS operations:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Instead of pthread_mutex_lock
|
||||
PoolBlock* old_head;
|
||||
do {
|
||||
old_head = atomic_load(&g_pool.freelist[class_idx][shard_idx]);
|
||||
if (!old_head) break;
|
||||
} while (!atomic_compare_exchange_weak(&g_pool.freelist[class_idx][shard_idx],
|
||||
&old_head, old_head->next));
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution 3: Increase TLS Cache Hit Rate
|
||||
**Effort**: 2-3 hours
|
||||
**Expected Performance**: 5-10M ops/s (partial improvement)
|
||||
|
||||
- Increase POOL_L2_RING_CAP from 64 to 256
|
||||
- Pre-warm TLS caches at init (like Tiny Phase 7)
|
||||
- Batch refill 64 blocks at once
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Plan
|
||||
|
||||
### Quick Win (2 hours)
|
||||
1. Increase `POOL_L2_RING_CAP` to 256
|
||||
2. Add pre-warming in `hak_pool_init()`
|
||||
3. Test performance
|
||||
|
||||
### Full Fix (6 hours)
|
||||
1. Create `pool_fast_path.inc.h` (copy from tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h)
|
||||
2. Replace `hak_pool_try_alloc` with simple TLS freelist
|
||||
3. Implement batch refill without locks
|
||||
4. Add feature flag for rollback safety
|
||||
5. Test MT performance
|
||||
|
||||
## Expected Results
|
||||
|
||||
With proposed fix (Solution 1):
|
||||
- **Current**: 434,611 ops/s
|
||||
- **Expected**: 40-60M ops/s
|
||||
- **Improvement**: 92-138x faster
|
||||
- **vs System**: Should achieve 70-90% of System malloc
|
||||
|
||||
## Files to Modify
|
||||
|
||||
1. `core/box/pool_core_api.inc.h`: Replace lines 229-286
|
||||
2. `core/hakmem_pool.h`: Add TLS freelist declarations
|
||||
3. Create `core/pool_fast_path.inc.h`: New fast path implementation
|
||||
|
||||
## Success Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
✅ Pool allocation hot path < 20 cycles
|
||||
✅ No mutex locks in common case
|
||||
✅ TLS hit rate > 95%
|
||||
✅ Performance > 40M ops/s for 8-32KB allocations
|
||||
✅ MT scaling without contention

## 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.

# Pool TLS + Learning Layer Integration Design
|
||||
|
||||
## Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
**Core Insight**: "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 (cold path)
|
||||
- Hot path stays ultra-fast (5-6 cycles)
|
||||
- Learning data pushed async to background thread
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Box Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### Clean Separation Design
|
||||

│ - ace_background_thread() → void │
|
||||
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Design Principles
|
||||
|
||||
1. **NO learning code in hot path** - Box 1 is pristine
|
||||
2. **Metrics collection in refill only** - Box 2 handles all instrumentation
|
||||
3. **Async learning** - Box 3 runs independently
|
||||
4. **One-way data flow** - Events flow down, policies flow up via shared memory
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Learning Event Design
|
||||
|
||||
### Event Structure
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
typedef struct {
|
||||
uint32_t thread_id; // Which thread triggered refill
|
||||
uint16_t class_idx; // Size class
|
||||
uint16_t refill_count; // How many blocks refilled
|
||||
uint64_t timestamp_ns; // When refill occurred
|
||||
uint32_t miss_streak; // Consecutive misses before refill
|
||||
uint32_t tls_occupancy; // How full was cache before refill
|
||||
uint32_t flags; // FIRST_REFILL, FORCED_DRAIN, etc.
|
||||
} RefillEvent;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Collection Points (in pool_refill.c ONLY)
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
static inline void pool_refill_internal(int class_idx) {
|
||||
// 1. Capture pre-refill state
|
||||
uint32_t old_count = g_tls_pool_count[class_idx];
|
||||
uint32_t miss_streak = g_tls_miss_streak[class_idx];
|
||||
|
||||
// 2. Get refill policy (from ACE or default)
|
||||
int refill_count = pool_get_refill_count(class_idx);
|
||||
|
||||
// 3. Batch allocate
|
||||
void* chain = backend_batch_alloc(class_idx, refill_count);
|
||||
|
||||
// 4. Install in TLS
|
||||
pool_splice_chain(class_idx, chain, refill_count);
|
||||
|
||||
// 5. Create learning event (AFTER successful refill)
|
||||
RefillEvent event = {
|
||||
.thread_id = pool_get_thread_id(),
|
||||
.class_idx = class_idx,
|
||||
.refill_count = refill_count,
|
||||
.timestamp_ns = pool_get_timestamp(),
|
||||
.miss_streak = miss_streak,
|
||||
.tls_occupancy = old_count,
|
||||
.flags = (old_count == 0) ? FIRST_REFILL : 0
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// 6. Push to learning queue (non-blocking)
|
||||
ace_push_event(&event);
|
||||
|
||||
// 7. Reset counters
|
||||
g_tls_miss_streak[class_idx] = 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Thread-Crossing Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
### Chosen Design: Lock-Free MPSC Queue
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**: Minimal overhead, no blocking, simple to implement
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Lock-free multi-producer single-consumer queue
|
||||
typedef struct {
|
||||
_Atomic(RefillEvent*) events[LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE];
|
||||
_Atomic uint64_t write_pos;
|
||||
uint64_t read_pos; // Only accessed by consumer
|
||||
_Atomic uint64_t drops; // Track dropped events (Contract A)
|
||||
} LearningQueue;
|
||||
|
||||
// Producer side (worker threads during refill)
|
||||
void ace_push_event(RefillEvent* event) {
|
||||
uint64_t pos = atomic_fetch_add(&g_queue.write_pos, 1);
|
||||
uint64_t slot = pos % LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE;
|
||||
|
||||
// Contract A: Check for full queue and drop if necessary
|
||||
if (atomic_load(&g_queue.events[slot]) != NULL) {
|
||||
atomic_fetch_add(&g_queue.drops, 1);
|
||||
return; // DROP - never block!
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Copy event to pre-allocated slot (Contract C: fixed ring buffer)
|
||||
RefillEvent* dest = &g_event_pool[slot];
|
||||
memcpy(dest, event, sizeof(RefillEvent));
|
||||
|
||||
// Publish (release semantics)
|
||||
atomic_store_explicit(&g_queue.events[slot], dest, memory_order_release);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Consumer side (learning thread)
|
||||
void ace_consume_events(void) {
|
||||
while (running) {
|
||||
uint64_t slot = g_queue.read_pos % LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE;
|
||||
RefillEvent* event = atomic_load_explicit(
|
||||
&g_queue.events[slot], memory_order_acquire);
|
||||
|
||||
if (event) {
|
||||
ace_process_event(event);
|
||||
atomic_store(&g_queue.events[slot], NULL);
|
||||
g_queue.read_pos++;
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
// No events, sleep briefly
|
||||
usleep(1000); // 1ms
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Why Not TLS Accumulation?
|
||||
|
||||
- ❌ Requires synchronization points (when to flush?)
|
||||
- ❌ Delays learning (batch vs streaming)
|
||||
- ❌ More complex state management
|
||||
- ✅ MPSC queue is simpler and proven
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Interface Contracts (Critical Specifications)
|
||||
|
||||
### Contract A: Queue Overflow Policy
|
||||
|
||||
**Rule**: ace_push_event() MUST NEVER BLOCK
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
- If queue is full: DROP the event silently
|
||||
- Rationale: Hot path correctness > complete telemetry
|
||||
- Monitoring: Track drop count for diagnostics
|
||||
|
||||
**Code**:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void ace_push_event(RefillEvent* event) {
|
||||
uint64_t pos = atomic_fetch_add(&g_queue.write_pos, 1);
|
||||
uint64_t slot = pos % LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE;
|
||||
|
||||
// Check if slot is still occupied (queue full)
|
||||
if (atomic_load(&g_queue.events[slot]) != NULL) {
|
||||
atomic_fetch_add(&g_queue.drops, 1); // Track drops
|
||||
return; // DROP - don't wait!
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Safe to write - copy to ring buffer
|
||||
memcpy(&g_event_pool[slot], event, sizeof(RefillEvent));
|
||||
atomic_store_explicit(&g_queue.events[slot], &g_event_pool[slot],
|
||||
memory_order_release);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Contract B: Policy Scope Limitation
|
||||
|
||||
**Rule**: ACE can ONLY adjust "next refill parameters"
|
||||
|
||||
**Allowed**:
|
||||
- ✅ Refill count for next miss
|
||||
- ✅ Drain threshold adjustments
|
||||
- ✅ Pre-warming at thread init
|
||||
|
||||
**FORBIDDEN**:
|
||||
- ❌ Immediate cache flush
|
||||
- ❌ Blocking operations
|
||||
- ❌ Direct TLS manipulation
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
- ACE writes to: `g_refill_policies[class_idx]` (atomic)
|
||||
- Box2 reads from: `ace_get_refill_count(class_idx)` (atomic load, no blocking)
|
||||
|
||||
**Code**:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// ACE side - writes policy
|
||||
void ace_update_policy(int class_idx, uint32_t new_count) {
|
||||
// ONLY writes to policy table
|
||||
atomic_store(&g_refill_policies[class_idx], new_count);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Box2 side - reads policy (never blocks)
|
||||
uint32_t pool_get_refill_count(int class_idx) {
|
||||
uint32_t count = atomic_load(&g_refill_policies[class_idx]);
|
||||
return count ? count : DEFAULT_REFILL_COUNT[class_idx];
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Contract C: Memory Ownership Model
|
||||
|
||||
**Rule**: Clear ownership to prevent use-after-free
|
||||
|
||||
**Model**: Fixed Ring Buffer (No Allocations)
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Pre-allocated event pool
|
||||
static RefillEvent g_event_pool[LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE];
|
||||
|
||||
// Producer (Box2)
|
||||
void ace_push_event(RefillEvent* event) {
|
||||
uint64_t pos = atomic_fetch_add(&g_queue.write_pos, 1);
|
||||
uint64_t slot = pos % LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE;
|
||||
|
||||
// Check for full queue (Contract A)
|
||||
if (atomic_load(&g_queue.events[slot]) != NULL) {
|
||||
atomic_fetch_add(&g_queue.drops, 1);
|
||||
return;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Copy to fixed slot (no malloc!)
|
||||
memcpy(&g_event_pool[slot], event, sizeof(RefillEvent));
|
||||
|
||||
// Publish pointer
|
||||
atomic_store(&g_queue.events[slot], &g_event_pool[slot]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Consumer (Box3)
|
||||
void ace_consume_events(void) {
|
||||
RefillEvent* event = atomic_load(&g_queue.events[slot]);
|
||||
|
||||
if (event) {
|
||||
// Process (event lifetime guaranteed by ring buffer)
|
||||
ace_process_event(event);
|
||||
|
||||
// Release slot
|
||||
atomic_store(&g_queue.events[slot], NULL);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Ownership Rules**:
|
||||
- Producer: COPIES to ring buffer (stack event is safe to discard)
|
||||
- Consumer: READS from ring buffer (no ownership transfer)
|
||||
- Ring buffer: OWNS all events (never freed, just reused)
|
||||
|
||||
### Contract D: API Boundary Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
**Box1 API (pool_tls.h)**:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// PUBLIC: Hot path functions
|
||||
void* pool_alloc(size_t size);
|
||||
void pool_free(void* ptr);
|
||||
|
||||
// INTERNAL: Only called by Box2
|
||||
void pool_install_chain(int class_idx, void* chain, int count);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Box2 API (pool_refill.h)**:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// INTERNAL: Refill implementation
|
||||
void* pool_refill_and_alloc(int class_idx);
|
||||
|
||||
// Box2 is ONLY box that calls ace_push_event()
|
||||
// (Enforced by making it static in pool_refill.c)
|
||||
static void notify_learning(RefillEvent* event) {
|
||||
ace_push_event(event);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Box3 API (ace_learning.h)**:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// POLICY OUTPUT: Box2 reads these
|
||||
uint32_t ace_get_refill_count(int class_idx);
|
||||
|
||||
// EVENT INPUT: Only Box2 calls this
|
||||
void ace_push_event(RefillEvent* event);
|
||||
|
||||
// Box3 NEVER calls Box1 functions directly
|
||||
// Box3 NEVER blocks Box1 or Box2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Enforcement Strategy**:
|
||||
- Separate .c files (no cross-includes except public headers)
|
||||
- Static functions where appropriate
|
||||
- Code review checklist in POOL_IMPLEMENTATION_CHECKLIST.md
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Progressive Implementation Plan
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1: Ultra-Simple TLS (2 days)
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: 40-60M ops/s without any learning
|
||||
|
||||
**Files**:
|
||||
- `core/pool_tls.c` - TLS freelist implementation
|
||||
- `core/pool_tls.h` - Public API
|
||||
|
||||
**Code** (pool_tls.c):
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Global TLS state (per-thread)
|
||||
__thread void* g_tls_pool_head[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES];
|
||||
__thread uint32_t g_tls_pool_count[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES];
|
||||
|
||||
// Fixed refill counts for Phase 1
|
||||
static const uint32_t DEFAULT_REFILL_COUNT[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES] = {
|
||||
64, 64, 48, 48, 32, 32, 24, 24, // Small (high frequency)
|
||||
16, 16, 12, 12, 8, 8, 8, 8 // Large (lower frequency)
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Ultra-fast allocation (5-6 cycles)
|
||||
void* pool_alloc_fast(size_t size) {
|
||||
int class_idx = pool_size_to_class(size);
|
||||
void* head = g_tls_pool_head[class_idx];
|
||||
|
||||
if (LIKELY(head)) {
|
||||
// Pop from freelist
|
||||
g_tls_pool_head[class_idx] = *(void**)head;
|
||||
g_tls_pool_count[class_idx]--;
|
||||
|
||||
// Write header if enabled
|
||||
#if POOL_USE_HEADERS
|
||||
*((uint8_t*)head - 1) = POOL_MAGIC | class_idx;
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
|
||||
return head;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Cold path: refill
|
||||
return pool_refill_and_alloc(class_idx);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Simple refill (no learning)
|
||||
static void* pool_refill_and_alloc(int class_idx) {
|
||||
int count = DEFAULT_REFILL_COUNT[class_idx];
|
||||
|
||||
// Batch allocate from SuperSlab
|
||||
void* chain = ss_batch_carve(class_idx, count);
|
||||
if (!chain) return NULL;
|
||||
|
||||
// Pop first for return
|
||||
void* ret = chain;
|
||||
chain = *(void**)chain;
|
||||
count--;
|
||||
|
||||
// Install rest in TLS
|
||||
g_tls_pool_head[class_idx] = chain;
|
||||
g_tls_pool_count[class_idx] = count;
|
||||
|
||||
#if POOL_USE_HEADERS
|
||||
*((uint8_t*)ret - 1) = POOL_MAGIC | class_idx;
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
|
||||
return ret;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Ultra-fast free (5-6 cycles)
|
||||
void pool_free_fast(void* ptr) {
|
||||
#if POOL_USE_HEADERS
|
||||
uint8_t header = *((uint8_t*)ptr - 1);
|
||||
if ((header & 0xF0) != POOL_MAGIC) {
|
||||
// Not ours, route elsewhere
|
||||
return pool_free_slow(ptr);
|
||||
}
|
||||
int class_idx = header & 0x0F;
|
||||
#else
|
||||
int class_idx = pool_ptr_to_class(ptr); // Lookup
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
|
||||
// Push to freelist
|
||||
*(void**)ptr = g_tls_pool_head[class_idx];
|
||||
g_tls_pool_head[class_idx] = ptr;
|
||||
g_tls_pool_count[class_idx]++;
|
||||
|
||||
// Optional: drain if too full
|
||||
if (UNLIKELY(g_tls_pool_count[class_idx] > MAX_TLS_CACHE)) {
|
||||
pool_drain_excess(class_idx);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Acceptance Criteria**:
|
||||
- ✅ Larson: 2.5M+ ops/s
|
||||
- ✅ bench_random_mixed: 40M+ ops/s
|
||||
- ✅ No learning code present
|
||||
- ✅ Clean, readable, < 200 LOC
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2: Metrics Collection (1 day)
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Add instrumentation without slowing hot path
|
||||
|
||||
**Changes**:
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Add to TLS state
|
||||
__thread uint64_t g_tls_pool_hits[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES];
|
||||
__thread uint64_t g_tls_pool_misses[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES];
|
||||
__thread uint32_t g_tls_miss_streak[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES];
|
||||
|
||||
// In pool_alloc_fast() - hot path
|
||||
if (LIKELY(head)) {
|
||||
#ifdef POOL_COLLECT_METRICS
|
||||
g_tls_pool_hits[class_idx]++; // Single increment
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
// ... existing code
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// In pool_refill_and_alloc() - cold path
|
||||
g_tls_pool_misses[class_idx]++;
|
||||
g_tls_miss_streak[class_idx]++;
|
||||
|
||||
// New stats function
|
||||
void pool_print_stats(void) {
|
||||
for (int i = 0; i < POOL_SIZE_CLASSES; i++) {
|
||||
double hit_rate = (double)g_tls_pool_hits[i] /
|
||||
(g_tls_pool_hits[i] + g_tls_pool_misses[i]);
|
||||
printf("Class %d: %.2f%% hit rate, avg streak %u\n",
|
||||
i, hit_rate * 100, avg_streak[i]);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Acceptance Criteria**:
|
||||
- ✅ < 2% performance regression
|
||||
- ✅ Accurate hit rate reporting
|
||||
- ✅ Identify hot classes for Phase 3
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: Learning Integration (2 days)
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Connect ACE learning without touching hot path
|
||||
|
||||
**New Files**:
|
||||
- `core/ace_learning.c` - Learning thread
|
||||
- `core/ace_policy.h` - Policy structures
|
||||
|
||||
**Integration Points**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Startup**: Launch learning thread
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void hakmem_init(void) {
|
||||
// ... existing init
|
||||
ace_start_learning_thread();
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Refill**: Push events
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// In pool_refill_and_alloc() - add after successful refill
|
||||
RefillEvent event = { /* ... */ };
|
||||
ace_push_event(&event); // Non-blocking
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Policy Application**: Read tuned values
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Replace DEFAULT_REFILL_COUNT with dynamic lookup
|
||||
int count = ace_get_refill_count(class_idx);
|
||||
// Falls back to default if no policy yet
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**ACE Learning Algorithm** (ace_learning.c):
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// UCB1 for exploration vs exploitation
|
||||
typedef struct {
|
||||
double total_reward; // Sum of rewards
|
||||
uint64_t play_count; // Times tried
|
||||
uint32_t refill_size; // Current policy
|
||||
} ClassPolicy;
|
||||
|
||||
static ClassPolicy g_policies[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES];
|
||||
|
||||
void ace_process_event(RefillEvent* e) {
|
||||
ClassPolicy* p = &g_policies[e->class_idx];
|
||||
|
||||
// Compute reward (inverse of miss streak)
|
||||
double reward = 1.0 / (1.0 + e->miss_streak);
|
||||
|
||||
// Update UCB1 statistics
|
||||
p->total_reward += reward;
|
||||
p->play_count++;
|
||||
|
||||
// Adjust refill size based on occupancy
|
||||
if (e->tls_occupancy < 4) {
|
||||
// Cache was nearly empty, increase refill
|
||||
p->refill_size = MIN(p->refill_size * 1.5, 256);
|
||||
} else if (e->tls_occupancy > 32) {
|
||||
// Cache had plenty, decrease refill
|
||||
p->refill_size = MAX(p->refill_size * 0.75, 16);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Publish new policy (atomic write)
|
||||
atomic_store(&g_refill_policies[e->class_idx], p->refill_size);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Acceptance Criteria**:
|
||||
- ✅ No regression in hot path performance
|
||||
- ✅ Refill sizes adapt to workload
|
||||
- ✅ Background thread < 1% CPU
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. API Specifications
|
||||
|
||||
### Box 1: TLS Freelist API
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Public API (pool_tls.h)
|
||||
void* pool_alloc(size_t size);
|
||||
void pool_free(void* ptr);
|
||||
void pool_thread_init(void);
|
||||
void pool_thread_cleanup(void);
|
||||
|
||||
// Internal API (for refill box)
|
||||
int pool_needs_refill(int class_idx);
|
||||
void pool_install_chain(int class_idx, void* chain, int count);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Box 2: Refill API
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Internal API (pool_refill.h)
|
||||
void* pool_refill_and_alloc(int class_idx);
|

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Diagnostics and Monitoring
|
||||
|
||||
### Queue Health Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
typedef struct {
|
||||
uint64_t total_events; // Total events pushed
|
||||
uint64_t dropped_events; // Events dropped due to full queue
|
||||
uint64_t processed_events; // Events successfully processed
|
||||
double drop_rate; // drops / total_events
|
||||
} QueueMetrics;
|
||||
|
||||
void ace_compute_metrics(QueueMetrics* m) {
|
||||
m->total_events = atomic_load(&g_queue.write_pos);
|
||||
m->dropped_events = atomic_load(&g_queue.drops);
|
||||
m->processed_events = g_queue.read_pos;
|
||||
m->drop_rate = (double)m->dropped_events / m->total_events;
|
||||
|
||||
// Alert if drop rate exceeds threshold
|
||||
if (m->drop_rate > 0.01) { // > 1% drops
|
||||
fprintf(stderr, "WARNING: Queue drop rate %.2f%% - increase LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE\n",
|
||||
m->drop_rate * 100);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Target Metrics**:
|
||||
- Drop rate: < 0.1% (normal operation)
|
||||
- If > 1%: Increase LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE
|
||||
- If > 5%: Critical - learning degraded
|
||||
|
||||
### Policy Stability Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
typedef struct {
|
||||
uint32_t refill_count;
|
||||
uint32_t change_count; // Times policy changed
|
||||
uint64_t last_change_ns; // When last changed
|
||||
double variance; // Refill count variance
|
||||
} PolicyMetrics;
|
||||
|
||||
void ace_track_policy_stability(int class_idx) {
|
||||
static PolicyMetrics metrics[POOL_SIZE_CLASSES];
|
||||
PolicyMetrics* m = &metrics[class_idx];
|
||||
|

|
||||
m->change_count++;
|
||||
m->last_change_ns = get_timestamp_ns();
|
||||
|
||||
// Detect oscillation
|
||||

|
||||
if (change_interval < 1000000000) { // < 1 second
|
||||
fprintf(stderr, "WARNING: Class %d policy oscillating\n", class_idx);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|

```
|
||||
|

## 7. Risk Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### Performance Risks
|
||||
|
||||
| Risk | Mitigation | Severity |
|
||||
|------|------------|----------|
|
||||
| Hot path regression | Feature flags for each phase | Low |
|
||||
| Learning overhead | Async queue, no blocking | Low |
|
||||
| Cache line bouncing | TLS data, no sharing | Low |
|
||||
| Memory overhead | Bounded TLS cache sizes | Medium |
|
||||
|
||||
### Complexity Risks
|
||||
|
||||
| Risk | Mitigation | Severity |
|
||||
|------|------------|----------|
|
||||
| Box boundary violation | Contract D: Separate files, enforced APIs | Medium |
|
||||
| Deadlock in learning | Contract A: Lock-free queue, drops allowed | Low |
|
||||
| Policy instability | Contract B: Only next-refill adjustments | Medium |
|
||||
| Debug complexity | Per-box debug flags | Low |
|
||||
|
||||
### Correctness Risks
|
||||
|
||||
| Risk | Mitigation | Severity |
|
||||
|------|------------|----------|
|
||||
| Header corruption | Magic byte validation | Low |
|
||||
| Double-free | TLS ownership clear | Low |
|
||||
| Memory leak | Drain on thread exit | Medium |
|
||||
| Refill failure | Fallback to system malloc | Low |
|
||||
| Use-after-free | Contract C: Fixed ring buffer, no malloc | Low |
|
||||
|
||||
### Contract-Specific Risks
|
||||
|
||||
| Risk | Contract | Mitigation |
|
||||
|------|----------|------------|
|
||||
| Queue overflow causing blocking | A | Drop events, monitor drop rate |
|
||||
| Learning thread blocking refill | B | Policy reads are atomic only |
|
||||
| Event lifetime issues | C | Fixed ring buffer, memcpy semantics |
|
||||
| Cross-box coupling | D | Separate compilation units, code review |
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. Testing Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1 Tests
|
||||
- Unit: TLS alloc/free correctness
|
||||
- Perf: 40-60M ops/s target
|
||||
- Stress: Multi-threaded consistency
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2 Tests
|
||||
- Metrics accuracy validation
|
||||
- Performance regression < 2%
|
||||
- Hit rate analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3 Tests
|
||||
- Learning convergence
|
||||
- Policy stability
|
||||
- Background thread CPU < 1%
|
||||
|
||||
### Contract Validation Tests
|
||||
|
||||
#### Contract A: Non-Blocking Queue
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void test_queue_never_blocks(void) {
|
||||
// Fill queue completely
|
||||
for (int i = 0; i < LEARNING_QUEUE_SIZE * 2; i++) {
|
||||
RefillEvent event = {.class_idx = i % 16};
|
||||
uint64_t start = get_cycles();
|
||||
ace_push_event(&event);
|
||||
uint64_t elapsed = get_cycles() - start;
|
||||
|
||||
// Should never take more than 1000 cycles
|
||||
assert(elapsed < 1000);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Verify drops were tracked
|
||||
assert(atomic_load(&g_queue.drops) > 0);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Contract B: Policy Scope
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void test_policy_scope_limited(void) {
|
||||
// ACE should only write to policy table
|
||||
uint32_t old_count = g_tls_pool_count[0];
|
||||
|
||||
// Trigger learning update
|
||||
ace_update_policy(0, 128);
|
||||
|
||||
// Verify TLS state unchanged
|
||||
assert(g_tls_pool_count[0] == old_count);
|
||||
|
||||
// Verify policy updated
|
||||
assert(ace_get_refill_count(0) == 128);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Contract C: Memory Safety
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void test_no_use_after_free(void) {
|
||||
RefillEvent stack_event = {.class_idx = 5};
|
||||
|
||||
// Push event (should be copied)
|
||||
ace_push_event(&stack_event);
|
||||
|
||||
// Modify stack event
|
||||
stack_event.class_idx = 10;
|
||||
|
||||
// Consume event - should see original value
|
||||
ace_consume_single_event();
|
||||
assert(last_processed_class == 5);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Contract D: API Boundaries
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// This should fail to compile if boundaries are correct
|
||||
#ifdef TEST_CONTRACT_D_VIOLATION
|
||||
// In ace_learning.c
|
||||
void bad_function(void) {
|
||||
// Should not compile - Box3 can't call Box1
|
||||
pool_alloc(128); // VIOLATION!
|
||||
}
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 9. Implementation Timeline
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Day 1-2: Phase 1 (Simple TLS)
|
||||
- pool_tls.c implementation
|
||||
- Basic testing
|
||||
- Performance validation
|
||||
|
||||
Day 3: Phase 2 (Metrics)
|
||||
- Add counters
|
||||
- Stats reporting
|
||||
- Identify hot classes
|
||||
|
||||
Day 4-5: Phase 3 (Learning)
|
||||
- ace_learning.c
|
||||
- MPSC queue
|
||||
- UCB1 algorithm
|
||||
|
||||
Day 6: Integration Testing
|
||||
- Full system test
|
||||
- Performance validation
|
||||
- Documentation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
This design achieves:
|
||||
- ✅ **Clean separation**: Three distinct boxes with clear boundaries
|
||||
- ✅ **Simple hot path**: 5-6 cycles for alloc/free
|
||||
- ✅ **Smart learning**: UCB1 in background, no hot path impact
|
||||
- ✅ **Progressive enhancement**: Each phase independently valuable
|
||||
- ✅ **User's vision**: "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"
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Specifications Now Formalized:**
|
||||
- ✅ **Contract A**: Queue overflow policy - DROP events, never block
|
||||
- ✅ **Contract B**: Policy scope limitation - Only adjust next refill
|
||||
- ✅ **Contract C**: Memory ownership model - Fixed ring buffer, no UAF
|
||||
- ✅ **Contract D**: API boundary enforcement - Separate files, no cross-calls
|
||||
|
||||
The key insight is that learning during refill (cold path) keeps the hot path pristine while still enabling intelligent adaptation. The lock-free MPSC queue with explicit drop policy ensures zero contention between workers and the learning thread.
|
||||
|
||||
**Ready for Implementation**: All ambiguities resolved, contracts specified, testing defined.
