94f9ea5104 Implement Phase 1: TLS SuperSlab Hint Box for Headerless performance
Design: Cache recently-used SuperSlab references in TLS to accelerate
ptr→SuperSlab resolution in Headerless mode free() path.

## Implementation

### New Box: core/box/tls_ss_hint_box.h
- Header-only Box (4-slot FIFO cache per thread)
- Functions: tls_ss_hint_init(), tls_ss_hint_update(), tls_ss_hint_lookup(), tls_ss_hint_clear()
- Memory overhead: 112 bytes per thread (negligible)
- Statistics API for debug builds (hit/miss counters)

### Integration Points

1. **Free path** (core/hakmem_tiny_free.inc):
   - Lines 477-481: Fast path hint lookup before hak_super_lookup()
   - Lines 550-555: Second lookup location (fallback path)
   - Expected savings: 10-50 cycles → 2-5 cycles on cache hit

2. **Allocation path** (core/tiny_superslab_alloc.inc.h):
   - Lines 115-122: Linear allocation return path
   - Lines 179-186: Freelist allocation return path
   - Cache update on successful allocation

3. **TLS variable** (core/hakmem_tiny_tls_state_box.inc):
   - `__thread TlsSsHintCache g_tls_ss_hint = {0};`

### Build System

- **Build flag** (core/hakmem_build_flags.h):
  - HAKMEM_TINY_SS_TLS_HINT (default: 0, disabled)
  - Validation: requires HAKMEM_TINY_HEADERLESS=1

- **Makefile**:
  - Removed old ss_tls_hint_box.o (conflicting implementation)
  - Header-only design eliminates compiled object files

### Testing

- **Unit tests** (tests/test_tls_ss_hint.c):
  - 6 test functions covering init, lookup, FIFO rotation, duplicates, clear, stats
  - All tests PASSING

- **Build validation**:
  -  Compiles with hint disabled (default)
  -  Compiles with hint enabled (HAKMEM_TINY_SS_TLS_HINT=1)

### Documentation

- **Benchmark report** (docs/PHASE1_TLS_HINT_BENCHMARK.md):
  - Implementation summary
  - Build validation results
  - Benchmark methodology (to be executed)
  - Performance analysis framework

## Expected Performance

- **Hit rate**: 85-95% (single-threaded), 70-85% (multi-threaded)
- **Cycle savings**: 80-95% on cache hit (10-50 cycles → 2-5 cycles)
- **Target improvement**: 15-20% throughput increase vs Headerless baseline
- **Memory overhead**: 112 bytes per thread

## Box Theory

**Mission**: Cache hot SuperSlabs to avoid global registry lookup

**Boundary**: ptr → SuperSlab* or NULL (miss)

**Invariant**: hint.base ≤ ptr < hint.end → hit is valid

**Fallback**: Always safe to miss (triggers hak_super_lookup)

**Thread Safety**: TLS storage, no synchronization required

**Risk**: Low (read-only cache, fail-safe fallback, magic validation)

## Next Steps

1. Run full benchmark suite (sh8bench, cfrac, larson)
2. Measure actual hit rate with stats enabled
3. If performance target met (15-20% improvement), enable by default
4. Consider increasing cache slots if hit rate < 80%

4983352812 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)

1da8754d45 CRITICAL FIX: TLS 未初期化による 4T SEGV を完全解消
**問題:**
- Larson 4T で 100% SEGV (1T は 2.09M ops/s で完走)
- System/mimalloc は 4T で 33.52M ops/s 正常動作
- SS OFF + Remote OFF でも 4T で SEGV

**根本原因: (Task agent ultrathink 調査結果)**
```
CRASH: mov (%r15),%r13
R15 = 0x6261  ← ASCII "ba" (ゴミ値、未初期化TLS)
```

Worker スレッドの TLS 変数が未初期化:
- `__thread void* g_tls_sll_head[TINY_NUM_CLASSES];`  ← 初期化なし
- pthread_create() で生成されたスレッドでゼロ初期化されない
- NULL チェックが通過 (0x6261 != NULL) → dereference → SEGV

**修正内容:**
全 TLS 配列に明示的初期化子 `= {0}` を追加:

1. **core/hakmem_tiny.c:**
   - `g_tls_sll_head[TINY_NUM_CLASSES] = {0}`
   - `g_tls_sll_count[TINY_NUM_CLASSES] = {0}`
   - `g_tls_live_ss[TINY_NUM_CLASSES] = {0}`
   - `g_tls_bcur[TINY_NUM_CLASSES] = {0}`
   - `g_tls_bend[TINY_NUM_CLASSES] = {0}`

2. **core/tiny_fastcache.c:**
   - `g_tiny_fast_cache[TINY_FAST_CLASS_COUNT] = {0}`
   - `g_tiny_fast_count[TINY_FAST_CLASS_COUNT] = {0}`
   - `g_tiny_fast_free_head[TINY_FAST_CLASS_COUNT] = {0}`
   - `g_tiny_fast_free_count[TINY_FAST_CLASS_COUNT] = {0}`

3. **core/hakmem_tiny_magazine.c:**
   - `g_tls_mags[TINY_NUM_CLASSES] = {0}`

4. **core/tiny_sticky.c:**
   - `g_tls_sticky_ss[TINY_NUM_CLASSES][TINY_STICKY_RING] = {0}`
   - `g_tls_sticky_idx[TINY_NUM_CLASSES][TINY_STICKY_RING] = {0}`
   - `g_tls_sticky_pos[TINY_NUM_CLASSES] = {0}`

**効果:**
```
Before: 1T: 2.09M   |  4T: SEGV 💀
After:  1T: 2.41M   |  4T: 4.19M   (+15% 1T, SEGV解消)
```

**テスト:**
```bash
# 1 thread: 完走
./larson_hakmem 2 8 128 1024 1 12345 1
→ Throughput = 2,407,597 ops/s 

# 4 threads: 完走(以前は SEGV)
./larson_hakmem 2 8 128 1024 1 12345 4
→ Throughput = 4,192,155 ops/s 
```

**調査協力:** Task agent (ultrathink mode) による完璧な根本原因特定
