Phase 15 v1: UnifiedCache FIFO→LIFO NEUTRAL (-0.70% Mixed, +0.42% C7)
Transform existing array-based UnifiedCache from FIFO ring to LIFO stack.
A/B Results:
- Mixed (16-1024B): -0.70% (52,965,966 → 52,593,948 ops/s)
- C7-only (1025-2048B): +0.42% (78,010,783 → 78,335,509 ops/s)
Verdict: NEUTRAL (both below +1.0% GO threshold) - freeze as research box
Implementation:
- L0 ENV gate: tiny_unified_lifo_env_box.{h,c} (HAKMEM_TINY_UNIFIED_LIFO=0/1)
- L1 LIFO ops: tiny_unified_lifo_box.h (unified_cache_try_pop/push_lifo)
- L2 integration: tiny_front_hot_box.h (mode check at entry)
- Reuses existing slots[] array (no intrusive pointers)
Root Causes:
1. Mode check overhead (tiny_unified_lifo_enabled() call)
2. Minimal LIFO vs FIFO locality delta in practice
3. Existing FIFO ring already well-optimized
Bonus Fix: LTO bug for tiny_c7_preserve_header_enabled() (Phase 13/14 latent issue)
- Converted static inline to extern + non-inline implementation
- Fixes undefined reference during LTO linking

Phase 14 v1: Pointer-Chase Reduction (tcache) NEUTRAL (+0.20%)
Implementation:
- Intrusive LIFO tcache layer (L1) before UnifiedCache
- TLS per-class bins (head pointer + count)
- Intrusive next pointers (via tiny_next_store/load SSOT)
- Cap: 64 blocks per class (default)
- ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_TCACHE=0/1 (default: 0, OFF)
A/B Test Results (Mixed 10-run):
- Baseline (TCACHE=0): 51,083,379 ops/s
- Optimized (TCACHE=1): 51,186,838 ops/s
- Mean delta: +0.20% (below +1.0% GO threshold)
- Median delta: +0.59%
Verdict: NEUTRAL - Freeze as research box (default OFF)
Root Cause (v1 wiring incomplete):
- Free side pushes to tcache via unified_cache_push()
- Alloc hot path (tiny_hot_alloc_fast) doesn't consume tcache
- tcache becomes "sink" without alloc-side pop → ROI not measurable
Files:
- Created: core/box/tiny_tcache_{env_box,box}.h, tiny_tcache_env_box.c
- Modified: core/front/tiny_unified_cache.h (integration)
- Modified: core/bench_profile.h (refresh sync)
- Modified: Makefile (build integration)
- Results: docs/analysis/PHASE14_POINTER_CHASE_REDUCTION_1_AB_TEST_RESULTS.md
- v2 Instructions: docs/analysis/PHASE14_POINTER_CHASE_REDUCTION_2_NEXT_INSTRUCTIONS.md
Next: Phase 14 v2 (connect tcache to tiny_front_hot_box alloc/free hot path)
