Two-Speed HOT PATH: Guard hak_super_lookup calls with HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE
...
Phase E2 introduced registry lookup to the hot path, causing 84-88% regression
(70M → 9M ops/sec). This commit restores performance by guarding expensive
hak_super_lookup calls (50-100 cycles each) with conditional compilation.
Key changes:
- tls_sll_box.h push: Full validation in Debug, ss_fast_lookup (O(1)) in Release
- tls_sll_box.h pop: Registry validation in Debug, trust list structure in Release
- tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h: Header/meta cross-check Debug-only
- malloc_tiny_fast.h: SuperSlab registration check Debug-only
Performance improvement:
- Release build: 2.9M → 87-88M ops/sec (30x improvement)
- Restored to historical UNIFIED-HEADER peak (70-80M range)
Release builds trust:
- Header magic (0xA0) as sufficient allocation origin validation
- TLS SLL linked list structure integrity
- Header-based class_idx classification
Debug builds maintain full validation with expensive registry lookups.

P2: TLS SLL Redesign - class_map default, tls_cached tracking, conditional header restore
...
This commit completes the P2 phase of the Tiny Pool TLS SLL redesign to fix the
Header/Next pointer conflict that was causing ~30% crash rates.
Changes:
- P2.1: Make class_map lookup the default (ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_NO_CLASS_MAP=1 for legacy)
- P2.2: Add meta->tls_cached field to track blocks cached in TLS SLL
- P2.3: Make Header restoration conditional in tiny_next_store() (default: skip)
- P2.4: Add invariant verification functions (active + tls_cached ≈ used)
- P0.4: Document new ENV variables in ENV_VARS.md
New ENV variables:
- HAKMEM_TINY_ACTIVE_TRACK=1: Enable active/tls_cached tracking (~1% overhead)
- HAKMEM_TINY_NO_CLASS_MAP=1: Disable class_map (legacy mode)
- HAKMEM_TINY_RESTORE_HEADER=1: Force header restoration (legacy mode)
- HAKMEM_TINY_INVARIANT_CHECK=1: Enable invariant verification (debug)
- HAKMEM_TINY_INVARIANT_DUMP=1: Enable periodic state dumps (debug)
Benchmark results (bench_tiny_hot_hakmem 64B):
- Default (class_map ON): 84.49 M ops/sec
- ACTIVE_TRACK=1: 83.62 M ops/sec (-1%)
- NO_CLASS_MAP=1 (legacy): 85.06 M ops/sec
- MT performance: +21-28% vs system allocator
No crashes observed. All tests passed.

P1.3: Add meta->active for TLS SLL tracking
...
Add active field to TinySlabMeta to track blocks currently held by
users (not in TLS SLL or freelist caches). This enables accurate
empty slab detection that accounts for TLS SLL cached blocks.
Changes:
- superslab_types.h: Add _Atomic uint16_t active field
- ss_allocation_box.c, hakmem_tiny_superslab.c: Initialize active=0
- tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h: Decrement active on TLS SLL push
- tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h: Add tiny_active_track_alloc() helper,
increment active on TLS SLL pop (all code paths)
- ss_hot_cold_box.h: ss_is_slab_empty() uses active when enabled
All tracking is ENV-gated: HAKMEM_TINY_ACTIVE_TRACK=1 to enable.
Default is off for zero performance impact.
Invariant: active = used - tls_cached (active <= used)

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

Add ss_fast_lookup() for O(1) SuperSlab lookup via mask
...
Replaces expensive hak_super_lookup() (registry hash lookup, 50-100 cycles)
with fast mask-based lookup (~5-10 cycles) in free hot paths.
Algorithm:
1. Mask pointer with SUPERSLAB_SIZE_MIN (1MB) - works for both 1MB and 2MB SS
2. Validate magic (SUPERSLAB_MAGIC)
3. Range check using ss->lg_size
Applied to:
- tiny_free_fast.inc.h: tiny_free_fast() SuperSlab path
- tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h: LARSON_FIX cross-thread check
- front/malloc_tiny_fast.h: free_tiny_fast() LARSON_FIX path
Note: Performance impact minimal with LARSON_FIX=OFF (default) since
SuperSlab lookup is skipped entirely in that case. Optimization benefits
LARSON_FIX=ON path for safe multi-threaded operation.

Fix cross-thread ownership check: Use bits 8-15 for owner_tid_low
...
Problem:
- TLS_SLL_PUSH_DUP crash in Larson multi-threaded benchmark
- Cross-thread frees incorrectly routed to same-thread TLS path
- Root cause: pthread_t on glibc is 256-byte aligned (TCB base)
so lower 8 bits are ALWAYS 0x00 for ALL threads
Fix:
- Change owner_tid_low from (tid & 0xFF) to ((tid >> 8) & 0xFF)
- Bits 8-15 actually vary between threads, enabling correct detection
- Applied consistently across all ownership check locations:
- superslab_inline.h: ss_owner_try_acquire/release/is_mine
- slab_handle.h: slab_try_acquire
- tiny_free_fast.inc.h: tiny_free_is_same_thread_ss
- tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h: cross-thread detection
- tiny_superslab_free.inc.h: same-thread check
- ss_allocation_box.c: slab initialization
- hakmem_tiny_superslab.c: ownership handling
Also added:
- Address watcher debug infrastructure (tiny_region_id.h)
- Cross-thread detection in malloc_tiny_fast.h Front Gate
Test results:
- Larson 1T/2T/4T: PASS (no TLS_SLL_PUSH_DUP crash)
- random_mixed: PASS
- Performance: ~20M ops/s (regression from 48M, needs optimization)

Larson double-free investigation: Add full operation lifecycle logging
...
**Diagnostic Enhancement**: Complete malloc/free/pop operation tracing for debug
**Problem**: Larson crashes with TLS_SLL_DUP at count=18, need to trace exact
pointer lifecycle to identify if allocator returns duplicate addresses or if
benchmark has double-free bug.
**Implementation** (ChatGPT + Claude + Task collaboration):
1. **Global Operation Counter** (core/hakmem_tiny_config_box.inc:9):
- Single atomic counter for all operations (malloc/free/pop)
- Chronological ordering across all paths
2. **Allocation Logging** (core/hakmem_tiny_config_box.inc:148-161):
- HAK_RET_ALLOC macro enhanced with operation logging
- Logs first 50 class=1 allocations with ptr/base/tls_count
3. **Free Logging** (core/tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h:222-235):
- Added before tls_sll_push() call (line 221)
- Logs first 50 class=1 frees with ptr/base/tls_count_before
4. **Pop Logging** (core/box/tls_sll_box.h:587-597):
- Added in tls_sll_pop_impl() after successful pop
- Logs first 50 class=1 pops with base/tls_count_after
5. **Drain Debug Logging** (core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h:143-151):
- Enhanced drain loop with detailed logging
- Tracks pop failures and drained block counts
**Initial Findings**:
- First 19 operations: ALL frees, ZERO allocations, ZERO pops
- OP#0006: First free of 0x...430
- OP#0018: Duplicate free of 0x...430 → TLS_SLL_DUP detected
- Suggests either: (a) allocations before logging starts, or (b) Larson bug
**Debug-only**: All logging gated by !HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE (zero cost in release)
**Next Steps**:
- Expand logging window to 200 operations
- Log initialization phase allocations
- Cross-check with Larson benchmark source
**Status**: Ready for extended testing

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

Phase 23 Unified Cache + PageFaultTelemetry generalization: Mid/VM page-fault bottleneck identified
...
Summary:
- Phase 23 Unified Cache: +30% improvement (Random Mixed 256B: 18.18M → 23.68M ops/s)
- PageFaultTelemetry: Extended to generic buckets (C0-C7, MID, L25, SSM)
- Measurement-driven decision: Mid/VM page-faults (80-100K) >> Tiny (6K) → prioritize Mid/VM optimization
Phase 23 Changes:
1. Unified Cache implementation (core/front/tiny_unified_cache.{c,h})
- Direct SuperSlab carve (TLS SLL bypass)
- Self-contained pop-or-refill pattern
- ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_UNIFIED_CACHE=1, HAKMEM_TINY_UNIFIED_C{0-7}=128
2. Fast path pruning (tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h, tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h)
- Unified ON → direct cache access (skip all intermediate layers)
- Alloc: unified_cache_pop_or_refill() → immediate fail to slow
- Free: unified_cache_push() → fallback to SLL only if full
PageFaultTelemetry Changes:
3. Generic bucket architecture (core/box/pagefault_telemetry_box.{c,h})
- PF_BUCKET_{C0-C7, MID, L25, SSM} for domain-specific measurement
- Integration: hak_pool_try_alloc(), l25_alloc_new_run(), shared_pool_allocate_superslab_unlocked()
4. Measurement results (Random Mixed 500K / 256B):
- Tiny C2-C7: 2-33 pages, high reuse (64-3.8 touches/page)
- SSM: 512 pages (initialization footprint)
- MID/L25: 0 (unused in this workload)
- Mid/Large VM benchmarks: 80-100K page-faults (13-16x higher than Tiny)
Ring Cache Enhancements:
5. Hot Ring Cache (core/front/tiny_ring_cache.{c,h})
- ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_HOT_RING_ENABLE=1, HAKMEM_TINY_HOT_RING_C{0-7}=size
- Conditional compilation cleanup
Documentation:
6. Analysis reports
- RANDOM_MIXED_BOTTLENECK_ANALYSIS.md: Page-fault breakdown
- RANDOM_MIXED_SUMMARY.md: Phase 23 summary
- RING_CACHE_ACTIVATION_GUIDE.md: Ring cache usage
- CURRENT_TASK.md: Updated with Phase 23 results and Phase 24 plan
Next Steps (Phase 24):
- Target: Mid/VM PageArena/HotSpanBox (page-fault reduction 80-100K → 30-40K)
- Tiny SSM optimization deferred (low ROI, ~6K page-faults already optimal)
- Expected improvement: +30-50% for Mid/Large workloads

Phase 13-B: TinyHeapV2 supply path with dual-mode A/B framework (Stealing vs Leftover)
...
Summary:
- Implemented free path supply with ENV-gated A/B modes (HAKMEM_TINY_HEAP_V2_LEFTOVER_MODE)
- Mode 0 (Stealing, default): L0 gets freed blocks first → +18% @ 32B
- Mode 1 (Leftover): L1 primary owner, L0 gets leftovers → Box-clean but -5% @ 16B
- Decision: Default to Stealing for performance (ChatGPT analysis: L0 doesn't corrupt learning layer signals)
Performance (100K iterations, workset=128):
- 16B: 43.9M → 45.6M ops/s (+3.9%)
- 32B: 41.9M → 49.6M ops/s (+18.4%) ✅
- 64B: 51.2M → 51.5M ops/s (+0.6%)
- 100% magazine hit rate (supply from free path working correctly)
Implementation:
- tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h: Dual-mode supply (lines 134-166)
- tiny_heap_v2.h: Add tiny_heap_v2_leftover_mode() flag + rationale doc
- tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h: Alloc hook with tiny_heap_v2_alloc_by_class()

Phase 13-B: TinyHeapV2 free path supply hook (magazine population)
...
Implement magazine supply from free path to enable TinyHeapV2 L0 cache
Changes:
1. core/tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h (Line 24, 134-143):
- Include tiny_heap_v2.h for magazine API
- Add supply hook after BASE pointer conversion (Line 134-143)
- Try to push freed block to TinyHeapV2 magazine (C0-C3 only)
- Falls back to TLS SLL if magazine full (existing behavior)
2. core/front/tiny_heap_v2.h (Line 24-46):
- Move TinyHeapV2Mag / TinyHeapV2Stats typedef from hakmem_tiny.c
- Add extern declarations for TLS variables
- Define TINY_HEAP_V2_MAG_CAP (16 slots)
- Enables use from tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h
3. core/hakmem_tiny.c (Line 1270-1276, 1766-1768):
- Remove duplicate typedef definitions
- Move TLS storage declarations after tiny_heap_v2.h include
- Reason: tiny_heap_v2.h must be included AFTER tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h
- Forward declarations remain for early reference
Supply Hook Flow:
```
hak_free_at(ptr) → hak_tiny_free_fast_v2(ptr)
→ class_idx = read_header(ptr)
→ base = ptr - 1
→ if (class_idx <= 3 && tiny_heap_v2_enabled())
→ tiny_heap_v2_try_push(class_idx, base)
→ success: return (magazine supplied)
→ full: fall through to TLS SLL
→ tls_sll_push(class_idx, base) # existing path
```
Benefits:
- Magazine gets populated from freed blocks (L0 cache warm-up)
- Next allocation hits magazine (fast L0 path, no backend refill)
- Expected: 70-90% hit rate for fixed-size workloads
- Expected: +200-500% performance for C0-C3 classes
Build & Smoke Test:
- ✅ Build successful
- ✅ bench_fixed_size 256B workset=50: 33M ops/s (stable)
- ✅ bench_fixed_size 16B workset=60: 30M ops/s (stable)
- 🔜 A/B test (hit rate measurement) deferred to next commit
Implementation Status:
- ✅ Phase 13-A: Alloc hook + stats (completed, committed)
- ✅ Phase 13-B: Free path supply (THIS COMMIT)
- 🔜 Phase 13-C: Evaluation & tuning
Notes:
- Supply hook is C0-C3 only (TinyHeapV2 target range)
- Magazine capacity=16 (same as Phase 13-A)
- No performance regression (hook is ENV-gated: HAKMEM_TINY_HEAP_V2=1)

- TLS SLL fast path (95-99% of frees) does NOT decrement meta->used
- Slabs never appear empty → SuperSlabs never freed → LRU never used
- Impact: 6,455 mmap/munmap calls per 200K iterations (74.8% time)
- Performance: -94% regression (9.38M → 563K ops/s)
Solution:
- Periodic drain every N frees (default: 1024) per size class
- Drain path: TLS SLL → slab freelist via tiny_free_local_box()
- This properly decrements meta->used and enables empty detection
Implementation:
1. core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h - New drain box function
- tiny_tls_sll_drain(): Pop from TLS SLL, push to slab freelist
- tiny_tls_sll_try_drain(): Drain trigger with counter
- ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_SLL_DRAIN_ENABLE=1/0 (default: 1)
- ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_SLL_DRAIN_INTERVAL=N (default: 1024)
- ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_SLL_DRAIN_DEBUG=1 (debug logging)
2. core/tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h - Integrated drain trigger
- Added drain call after successful TLS SLL push (line 145)
- Cost: 2-3 cycles per free (counter increment + comparison)
- Drain triggered every 1024 frees (0.1% overhead)
Expected Impact:
- mmap/munmap: 6,455 → ~100 calls (-96-97%)
- Throughput: 563K → 8-10M ops/s (+1,300-1,700%)
- LRU utilization: 0% → >90% (functional)

Phase 9: SuperSlab Lazy Deallocation + mincore removal
...
Goal: Eliminate syscall overhead (99.2% CPU) to approach System malloc performance
Implementation:
1. mincore removal (100% elimination)
- Deleted: hakmem_internal.h hak_is_memory_readable() syscall
- Deleted: tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h safety checks
- Alternative: Internal metadata (Registry + Header magic validation)
- Result: 841 mincore calls → 0 calls ✅
2. SuperSlab Lazy Deallocation
- Added LRU Cache Manager (470 lines in hakmem_super_registry.c)
- Extended SuperSlab: last_used_ns, generation, lru_prev/next
- Deallocation policy: Count/Memory/TTL based eviction
- Environment variables:
* HAKMEM_SUPERSLAB_MAX_CACHED=256 (default)
* HAKMEM_SUPERSLAB_MAX_MEMORY_MB=512 (default)
* HAKMEM_SUPERSLAB_TTL_SEC=60 (default)
3. Integration
- superslab_allocate: Try LRU cache first before mmap
- superslab_free: Push to LRU cache instead of immediate munmap
- Lazy deallocation: Defer munmap until cache limits exceeded
Performance Results (100K iterations, 256B allocations):
Before (Phase 7-8):
- Performance: 2.76M ops/s
- Syscalls: 3,412 (mmap:1,250, munmap:1,321, mincore:841)
After (Phase 9):
- Performance: 9.71M ops/s (+251%) 🏆
- Syscalls: 1,729 (mmap:877, munmap:852, mincore:0) (-49%)
Key Achievements:
- ✅ mincore: 100% elimination (841 → 0)
- ✅ mmap: -30% reduction (1,250 → 877)
- ✅ munmap: -35% reduction (1,321 → 852)
- ✅ Total syscalls: -49% reduction (3,412 → 1,729)
- ✅ Performance: +251% improvement (2.76M → 9.71M ops/s)
System malloc comparison:
- HAKMEM: 9.71M ops/s
- System malloc: 90.04M ops/s
- Achievement: 10.8% (target: 93%)
Next optimization:
- Further mmap/munmap reduction (1,729 vs System's 13 = 133x gap)
- Pre-warm LRU cache
- Adaptive LRU sizing
- Per-class LRU cache
Production ready with recommended settings:
export HAKMEM_SUPERSLAB_MAX_CACHED=256
export HAKMEM_SUPERSLAB_MAX_MEMORY_MB=512

Tiny: Enable P0 batch refill by default + docs and task update
...
Summary
- Default P0 ON: Build-time HAKMEM_TINY_P0_BATCH_REFILL=1 remains; runtime gate now defaults to ON
(HAKMEM_TINY_P0_ENABLE unset or not '0'). Kill switch preserved via HAKMEM_TINY_P0_DISABLE=1.
- Fix critical bug: After freelist→SLL batch splice, increment TinySlabMeta::used by 'from_freelist'
to mirror non-P0 behavior (prevents under-accounting and follow-on carve invariants from breaking).
- Add low-overhead A/B toggles for triage: HAKMEM_TINY_P0_NO_DRAIN (skip remote drain),
HAKMEM_TINY_P0_LOG (emit [P0_COUNTER_OK/MISMATCH] based on total_active_blocks delta).
- Keep linear carve fail-fast guards across simple/general/TLS-bump paths.
Perf (1T, 100k×256B)
- P0 OFF: ~2.73M ops/s (stable)
- P0 ON (no drain): ~2.45M ops/s
- P0 ON (normal drain): ~2.76M ops/s (fastest)
Known
- Rare [P0_COUNTER_MISMATCH] warnings persist (non-fatal). Continue auditing active/used
balance around batch freelist splice and remote drain splice.
Docs
- Add docs/TINY_P0_BATCH_REFILL.md (runtime switches, behavior, perf notes).
- Update CURRENT_TASK.md with Tiny P0 status (default ON) and next steps.

Phase 7 Task 3: Pre-warm TLS cache (+180-280% improvement!)
...
MAJOR SUCCESS: HAKMEM now achieves 85-92% of System malloc on tiny
allocations (128-512B) and BEATS System at 146% on 1024B allocations!
Performance Results:
- Random Mixed 128B: 21M → 59M ops/s (+181%) 🚀
- Random Mixed 256B: 19M → 70M ops/s (+268%) 🚀
- Random Mixed 512B: 21M → 68M ops/s (+224%) 🚀
- Random Mixed 1024B: 21M → 65M ops/s (+210%, 146% of System!) 🏆
- Larson 1T: 2.68M ops/s (stable, no regression)
Implementation:
1. Task 3a: Remove profiling overhead in release builds
- Wrapped RDTSC calls in #if !HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE
- Compiler can eliminate profiling code completely
- Effect: +2% (2.68M → 2.73M Larson)
2. Task 3b: Simplify refill logic
- Use constants from hakmem_build_flags.h
- TLS cache already optimal
- Effect: No regression
3. Task 3c: Pre-warm TLS cache (GAME CHANGER!)
- Pre-allocate 16 blocks per class at init
- Eliminates cold-start penalty
- Effect: +180-280% improvement 🚀
Root Cause:
The bottleneck was cold-start, not the hot path! First allocation in
each class triggered a SuperSlab refill (100+ cycles). Pre-warming
eliminated this penalty, revealing Phase 7's true potential.

Perf: Phase 7-1.3 - Hybrid mincore + Macro fix (+194-333%)
...
## Summary
Fixed CRITICAL bottleneck (mincore overhead) and macro definition bug.
Result: 2-3x performance improvement across all benchmarks.
## Performance Results
- Larson 1T: 631K → 2.73M ops/s (+333%) 🚀
- bench_random_mixed (128B): 768K → 2.26M ops/s (+194%) 🚀
- bench_random_mixed (512B): → 1.43M ops/s (new)
- [HEADER_INVALID] messages: Many → ~Zero ✅
## Changes
### 1. Hybrid mincore Optimization (317-634x faster)
**Problem**: `hak_is_memory_readable()` calls mincore() syscall on EVERY free
- Cost: 634 cycles/call
- Impact: 40x slower than System malloc
**Solution**: Check alignment BEFORE calling mincore()
- Step 1 (1-byte header): `if ((ptr & 0xFFF) == 0)` → only 0.1% call mincore
- Step 2 (16-byte header): `if ((ptr & 0xFFF) < HEADER_SIZE)` → only 0.4% call mincore
- Result: 634 → 1-2 cycles effective (99.6% skip mincore)
**Files**:
- core/tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h:53-71 - Step 1 hybrid check
- core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:94-107 - Step 2 hybrid check
- core/hakmem_internal.h:281-312 - Performance warning added
### 2. HAK_RET_ALLOC Macro Fix (CRITICAL BUG)
**Problem**: Macro definition order prevented Phase 7 header write
- hakmem_tiny.c:130 defined legacy macro (no header write)
- tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h:67 had `#ifndef` guard → skipped!
- Result: Headers NEVER written → All frees failed → Slow path
**Solution**: Force Phase 7 macro to override legacy
- hakmem_tiny.c:119 - Added `#ifndef HAK_RET_ALLOC` guard
- tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h:69-72 - Added `#undef` before redefine
### 3. Magic Byte Fix
**Problem**: Release builds don't write magic byte, but free ALWAYS checks it
- Result: All headers marked as invalid
**Solution**: ALWAYS write magic byte (same 1-byte write, no overhead)
- tiny_region_id.h:50-54 - Removed `#if !HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE` guard
## Technical Details
### Hybrid mincore Effectiveness
| Case | Frequency | Cost | Weighted |
|------|-----------|------|----------|
| Normal (Step 1) | 99.9% | 1-2 cycles | 1-2 |
| Page boundary | 0.1% | 634 cycles | 0.6 |
| **Total** | - | - | **1.6-2.6 cycles** |
**Improvement**: 634 → 1.6 cycles = **317-396x faster!**
### Macro Fix Impact
**Before**: HAK_RET_ALLOC(cls, ptr) → return (ptr) // No header write
**After**: HAK_RET_ALLOC(cls, ptr) → return tiny_region_id_write_header((ptr), (cls))
**Result**: Headers properly written → Fast path works → +194-333% performance
## Investigation
Task Agent Ultrathink analysis identified:
1. mincore() syscall overhead (634 cycles)
2. Macro definition order conflict
3. Release/Debug build mismatch (magic byte)

Fix: Phase 7-1.2 - Page boundary SEGV in fast free path
...
## Problem
`bench_random_mixed` crashed with SEGV when freeing malloc allocations
at page boundaries (e.g., ptr=0x7ffff6e00000, ptr-1 unmapped).
## Root Cause
Phase 7 fast free path reads 1-byte header at `ptr-1` without checking
if memory is accessible. When malloc returns page-aligned pointer with
previous page unmapped, reading `ptr-1` causes SEGV.
## Solution
Added `hak_is_memory_readable(ptr-1)` check BEFORE reading header in
`core/tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h`. Page-boundary allocations route to
slow path (dual-header dispatch) which correctly handles malloc via
__libc_free().
## Verification
- bench_random_mixed (1024B): SEGV → 692K ops/s ✅
- bench_random_mixed (2048B/4096B): SEGV → 697K/643K ops/s ✅
- All sizes stable across 3 runs
## Performance Impact
<1% overhead (mincore() only on fast path miss, ~1-3% of frees)

Phase 7-1.1: Fix 1024B crash (header validation + malloc fallback)
...
Fixed critical bugs preventing Phase 7 from working with 1024B allocations.
## Bug Fixes (by Task Agent Ultrathink)
1. **Header Validation Missing in Release Builds**
- `core/tiny_region_id.h:73-97` - Removed `#if !HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE`
- Always validate magic byte and class_idx (prevents SEGV on Mid/Large)
2. **1024B Malloc Fallback Missing**
- `core/box/hak_alloc_api.inc.h:35-49` - Direct fallback to malloc
- Phase 7 rejects 1024B (needs header) → skip ACE → use malloc
## Test Results
| Test | Result |
|------|--------|
| 128B, 512B, 1023B (Tiny) | +39%~+436% ✅ |
| 1024B only (100 allocs) | 100% success ✅ |
| Mixed 128B+1024B (200) | 100% success ✅ |
| bench_random_mixed 1024B | Still crashes ❌ |
## Known Issue
`bench_random_mixed` with 1024B still crashes (intermittent SEGV).
Simple tests pass, suggesting issue is with complex allocation patterns.
Investigation pending.

Phase 7-1 PoC: Region-ID Direct Lookup (+39%~+436% improvement!)
...
Implemented ultra-fast header-based free path that eliminates SuperSlab
lookup bottleneck (100+ cycles → 5-10 cycles).
## Key Changes
1. **Smart Headers** (core/tiny_region_id.h):
- 1-byte header before each allocation stores class_idx
- Memory layout: [Header: 1B] [User data: N-1B]
- Overhead: <2% average (0% for Slab[0] using wasted padding)
2. **Ultra-Fast Allocation** (core/tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h):
- Write header at base: *base = class_idx
- Return user pointer: base + 1
3. **Ultra-Fast Free** (core/tiny_free_fast_v2.inc.h):
- Read class_idx from header (ptr-1): 2-3 cycles
- Push base (ptr-1) to TLS freelist: 3-5 cycles
- Total: 5-10 cycles (vs 500+ cycles current!)
4. **Free Path Integration** (core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h):
- Removed SuperSlab lookup from fast path
- Direct header validation (no lookup needed!)
5. **Size Class Adjustment** (core/hakmem_tiny.h):
- Max tiny size: 1023B (was 1024B)
- 1024B requests → Mid allocator fallback
## Performance Results
| Size | Baseline | Phase 7 | Improvement |
|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| 128B | 1.22M | 6.54M | **+436%** 🚀 |
| 512B | 1.22M | 1.70M | **+39%** |
| 1023B | 1.22M | 1.92M | **+57%** |
## Build & Test
Enable Phase 7:
make HEADER_CLASSIDX=1 bench_random_mixed_hakmem
Run benchmark:
HAKMEM_TINY_USE_SUPERSLAB=1 ./bench_random_mixed_hakmem 10000 128 1234567
## Known Issues
- 1024B requests fallback to Mid allocator (by design)
- Target 40-60M ops/s not yet reached (current: 1.7-6.5M)
- Further optimization needed (TLS capacity tuning, refill optimization)
