25d963a4aa Code Cleanup: Remove false positives, redundant validations, and reduce verbose logging
Following the C7 stride upgrade fix (commit 23c0d9541), this commit performs
comprehensive cleanup to improve code quality and reduce debug noise.

## Changes

### 1. Disable False Positive Checks (tiny_nextptr.h)
- **Disabled**: NXT_MISALIGN validation block with `#if 0`
- **Reason**: Produces false positives due to slab base offsets (2048, 65536)
  not being stride-aligned, causing all blocks to appear "misaligned"
- **TODO**: Reimplement to check stride DISTANCE between consecutive blocks
  instead of absolute alignment to stride boundaries

### 2. Remove Redundant Geometry Validations

**hakmem_tiny_refill_p0.inc.h (P0 batch refill)**
- Removed 25-line CARVE_GEOMETRY_FIX validation block
- Replaced with NOTE explaining redundancy
- **Reason**: Stride table is now correct in tiny_block_stride_for_class(),
  defense-in-depth validation adds overhead without benefit

**ss_legacy_backend_box.c (legacy backend)**
- Removed 18-line LEGACY_FIX_GEOMETRY validation block
- Replaced with NOTE explaining redundancy
- **Reason**: Shared_pool validates geometry at acquisition time

### 3. Reduce Verbose Logging

**hakmem_shared_pool.c (sp_fix_geometry_if_needed)**
- Made SP_FIX_GEOMETRY logging conditional on `!HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE`
- **Reason**: Geometry fixes are expected during stride upgrades,
  no need to log in release builds

### 4. Verification
- Build:  Successful (LTO warnings expected)
- Test:  10K iterations (1.87M ops/s, no crashes)
- NXT_MISALIGN false positives:  Eliminated

## Files Modified
- core/tiny_nextptr.h - Disabled false positive NXT_MISALIGN check
- core/hakmem_tiny_refill_p0.inc.h - Removed redundant CARVE validation
- core/box/ss_legacy_backend_box.c - Removed redundant LEGACY validation
- core/hakmem_shared_pool.c - Made SP_FIX_GEOMETRY logging debug-only

## Impact
- **Code clarity**: Removed 43 lines of redundant validation code
- **Debug noise**: Reduced false positive diagnostics
- **Performance**: Eliminated overhead from redundant geometry checks
- **Maintainability**: Single source of truth for geometry validation

9b0d746407 Phase 3d-B: TLS Cache Merge - Unified g_tls_sll[] structure (+12-18% expected)
Merge separate g_tls_sll_head[] and g_tls_sll_count[] arrays into unified
TinyTLSSLL struct to improve L1D cache locality. Expected performance gain:
+12-18% from reducing cache line splits (2 loads → 1 load per operation).

Changes:
- core/hakmem_tiny.h: Add TinyTLSSLL type (16B aligned, head+count+pad)
- core/hakmem_tiny.c: Replace separate arrays with g_tls_sll[8]
- core/box/tls_sll_box.h: Update Box API (13 sites) for unified access
- Updated 32+ files: All g_tls_sll_head[i] → g_tls_sll[i].head
- Updated 32+ files: All g_tls_sll_count[i] → g_tls_sll[i].count
- core/hakmem_tiny_integrity.h: Unified canary guards
- core/box/integrity_box.c: Simplified canary validation
- Makefile: Added core/box/tiny_sizeclass_hist_box.o to link

Build:  PASS (10K ops sanity test)
Warnings: Only pre-existing LTO type mismatches (unrelated)

7311d32574 Phase 24 PageArena/HotSpanBox: Mid/VM page reuse cache (structural limit identified)
Summary:
- Implemented PageArena (Box PA1-PA3) for Mid-Large (8-52KB) / L25 (64KB-2MB)
- Integration: Pool TLS Arena + L25 alloc/refill paths
- Result: Minimal impact (+4.7% Mid, 0% VM page-fault reduction)
- Conclusion: Structural limit - existing Arena/Pool/L25 already optimized

Implementation:
1. Box PA1: Hot Page Cache (4KB pages, LIFO stack, 1024 slots)
   - core/page_arena.c: hot_page_alloc/free with mutex protection
   - TLS cache for 4KB pages

2. Box PA2: Warm Span Cache (64KB-2MB spans, size-bucketed)
   - 64KB/128KB/2MB span caches (256/128/64 slots)
   - Size-class based allocation

3. Box PA3: Cold Path (mmap fallback)
   - page_arena_alloc_pages/aligned with fallback to direct mmap

Integration Points:
4. Pool TLS Arena (core/pool_tls_arena.c)
   - chunk_ensure(): Lazy init + page_arena_alloc_pages() hook
   - arena_cleanup_thread(): Return chunks to PageArena if enabled
   - Exponential growth preserved (1MB → 8MB)

5. L25 Pool (core/hakmem_l25_pool.c)
   - l25_alloc_new_run(): Lazy init + page_arena_alloc_aligned() hook
   - refill_freelist(): PageArena allocation for bundles
   - 2MB run carving preserved

ENV Variables:
- HAKMEM_PAGE_ARENA_ENABLE=1 (default: 0, OFF)
- HAKMEM_PAGE_ARENA_HOT_SIZE=1024 (default: 1024)
- HAKMEM_PAGE_ARENA_WARM_64K=256 (default: 256)
- HAKMEM_PAGE_ARENA_WARM_128K=128 (default: 128)
- HAKMEM_PAGE_ARENA_WARM_2M=64 (default: 64)

Benchmark Results:
- Mid-Large MT (4T, 40K iter, 2KB):
  - OFF: 84,535 page-faults, 726K ops/s
  - ON:  84,534 page-faults, 760K ops/s (+4.7% ops, -0.001% faults)
- VM Mixed (200K iter):
  - OFF: 102,134 page-faults, 257K ops/s
  - ON:  102,134 page-faults, 255K ops/s (0% change)

Root Cause Analysis:
- Hypothesis: 50-66% page-fault reduction (80-100K → 30-40K)
- Actual: <1% page-fault reduction, minimal performance impact
- Reason: Structural limit - existing Arena/Pool/L25 already highly optimized
  - 1MB chunk sizes with high-density linear carving
  - TLS ring + exponential growth minimize mmap calls
  - PageArena becomes double-buffering layer with no benefit
  - Remaining page-faults from kernel zero-clear + app access patterns

Lessons Learned:
1. Mid/Large allocators already page-optimal via Arena/Pool design
2. Middle-layer caching ineffective when base layer already optimized
3. Page-fault reduction requires app-level access pattern changes
4. Tiny layer (Phase 23) remains best target for frontend optimization

Next Steps:
- Defer PageArena (low ROI, structural limit reached)
- Focus on upper layers (allocation pattern analysis, size distribution)
- Consider app-side access pattern optimization
