Tiny Pool redesign: P0.1, P0.3, P1.1, P1.2 - Out-of-band class_idx lookup
This commit implements the first phase of Tiny Pool redesign based on
ChatGPT architecture review. The goal is to eliminate Header/Next pointer
conflicts by moving class_idx lookup out-of-band (to SuperSlab metadata).
## P0.1: C0(8B) class upgraded to 16B
- Size table changed: {16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048} (8 classes)
- LUT updated: 1..16 → class 0, 17..32 → class 1, etc.
- tiny_next_off: C0 now uses offset 1 (header preserved)
- Eliminates edge cases for 8B allocations
## P0.3: Slab reuse guard Box (tls_slab_reuse_guard_box.h)
- New Box for draining TLS SLL before slab reuse
- ENV gate: HAKMEM_TINY_SLAB_REUSE_GUARD=1
- Prevents stale pointers when slabs are recycled
- Follows Box theory: single responsibility, minimal API
## P1.1: SuperSlab class_map addition
- Added uint8_t class_map[SLABS_PER_SUPERSLAB_MAX] to SuperSlab
- Maps slab_idx → class_idx for out-of-band lookup
- Initialized to 255 (UNASSIGNED) on SuperSlab creation
- Set correctly on slab initialization in all backends
## P1.2: Free fast path uses class_map
- ENV gate: HAKMEM_TINY_USE_CLASS_MAP=1
- Free path can now get class_idx from class_map instead of Header
- Falls back to Header read if class_map returns invalid value
- Fixed Legacy Backend dynamic slab initialization bug
## Documentation added
- HAKMEM_ARCHITECTURE_OVERVIEW.md: 4-layer architecture analysis
- TLS_SLL_ARCHITECTURE_INVESTIGATION.md: Root cause analysis
- PTR_LIFECYCLE_TRACE_AND_ROOT_CAUSE_ANALYSIS.md: Pointer tracking
- TINY_REDESIGN_CHECKLIST.md: Implementation roadmap (P0-P3)
## Test results
- Baseline: 70% success rate (30% crash - pre-existing issue)
- class_map enabled: 70% success rate (same as baseline)
- Performance: ~30.5M ops/s (unchanged)
## Next steps (P1.3, P2, P3)
- P1.3: Add meta->active for accurate TLS/freelist sync
- P2: TLS SLL redesign with Box-based counting
- P3: Complete Header out-of-band migration

Fix C0/C7 class confusion: Upgrade C7 stride to 2048B and fix meta->class_idx initialization
Root Cause:
1. C7 stride was 1024B, unable to serve 1024B user requests (need 1025B with header)
2. New SuperSlabs start with meta->class_idx=0 (mmap zero-init)
3. superslab_init_slab() only sets class_idx if meta->class_idx==255
4. Multiple code paths used conditional assignment (if class_idx==255), leaving C7 slabs with class_idx=0
5. This caused C7 blocks to be misidentified as C0, leading to HDR_META_MISMATCH errors
Changes:
1. Upgrade C7 stride: 1024B → 2048B (can now serve 1024B requests)
2. Update blocks_per_slab[7]: 64 → 32 (2048B stride / 64KB slab)
3. Update size-to-class LUT: entries 513-2048 now map to C7
4. Fix superslab_init_slab() fail-safe: only reinitialize if class_idx==255 (not 0)
5. Add explicit class_idx assignment in 6 initialization paths:
- tiny_superslab_alloc.inc.h: superslab_refill() after init
- hakmem_tiny_superslab.c: backend_shared after init (main path)
- ss_unified_backend_box.c: unconditional assignment
- ss_legacy_backend_box.c: explicit assignment
- superslab_expansion_box.c: explicit assignment
- ss_allocation_box.c: fail-safe condition fix
Fix P0 refill bug:
- Update obsolete array access after Phase 3d-B TLS SLL unification
- g_tls_sll_head[cls] → g_tls_sll[cls].head
- g_tls_sll_count[cls] → g_tls_sll[cls].count
Results:
- HDR_META_MISMATCH: eliminated (0 errors in 100K iterations)
- 1024B allocations now routed to C7 (Tiny fast path)
- NXT_MISALIGN warnings remain (legacy 1024B SuperSlabs, separate issue)

Add Box I (Integrity), Box E (Expansion), and comprehensive P0 debugging infrastructure
## Major Additions
### 1. Box I: Integrity Verification System (NEW - 703 lines)
- Files: core/box/integrity_box.h (267 lines), core/box/integrity_box.c (436 lines)
- Purpose: Unified integrity checking across all HAKMEM subsystems
- Features:
* 4-level integrity checking (0-4, compile-time controlled)
* Priority 1: TLS array bounds validation
* Priority 2: Freelist pointer validation
* Priority 3: TLS canary monitoring
* Priority ALPHA: Slab metadata invariant checking (5 invariants)
* Atomic statistics tracking (thread-safe)
* Beautiful BOX_BOUNDARY design pattern
### 2. Box E: SuperSlab Expansion System (COMPLETE)
- Files: core/box/superslab_expansion_box.h, core/box/superslab_expansion_box.c
- Purpose: Safe SuperSlab expansion with TLS state guarantee
- Features:
* Immediate slab 0 binding after expansion
* TLS state snapshot and restoration
* Design by Contract (pre/post-conditions, invariants)
* Thread-safe with mutex protection
### 3. Comprehensive Integrity Checking System
- File: core/hakmem_tiny_integrity.h (NEW)
- Unified validation functions for all allocator subsystems
- Uninitialized memory pattern detection (0xa2, 0xcc, 0xdd, 0xfe)
- Pointer range validation (null-page, kernel-space)
### 4. P0 Bug Investigation - Root Cause Identified
**Bug**: SEGV at iteration 28440 (deterministic with seed 42)
**Pattern**: 0xa2a2a2a2a2a2a2a2 (uninitialized/ASan poisoning)
**Location**: TLS SLL (Single-Linked List) cache layer
**Root Cause**: Race condition or use-after-free in TLS list management (class 0)
**Detection**: Box I successfully caught invalid pointer at exact crash point
### 5. Defensive Improvements
- Defensive memset in SuperSlab allocation (all metadata arrays)
- Enhanced pointer validation with pattern detection
- BOX_BOUNDARY markers throughout codebase (beautiful modular design)
- 5 metadata invariant checks in allocation/free/refill paths
## Integration Points
- Modified 13 files with Box I/E integration
- Added 10+ BOX_BOUNDARY markers
- 5 critical integrity check points in P0 refill path
## Test Results (100K iterations)
- Baseline: 7.22M ops/s
- Hotpath ON: 8.98M ops/s (+24% improvement ✓)
- P0 Bug: Still crashes at 28440 iterations (TLS SLL race condition)
- Root cause: Identified but not yet fixed (requires deeper investigation)
## Performance
- Box I overhead: Zero in release builds (HAKMEM_INTEGRITY_LEVEL=0)
- Debug builds: Full validation enabled (HAKMEM_INTEGRITY_LEVEL=4)
- Beautiful modular design maintains clean separation of concerns
## Known Issues
- P0 Bug at 28440 iterations: Race condition in TLS SLL cache (class 0)
- Cause: Use-after-free or race in remote free draining
- Next step: Valgrind investigation to pinpoint exact corruption location
## Code Quality
- Total new code: ~1400 lines (Box I + Box E + integrity system)
- Design: Beautiful Box Theory with clear boundaries
- Modularity: Complete separation of concerns
- Documentation: Comprehensive inline comments and BOX_BOUNDARY markers
