**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
- Move tiny_get_max_size to header for inlining
- Use cached static variable to avoid repeated env lookup
- Larson: 51.99M ops/s (stable)
