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)

Full report: PHASE7_DESIGN_REVIEW.md (23KB, 758 lines)

6b1382959c 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)

0b1c825f25 Fix: CRITICAL multi-threaded freelist/remote queue race condition
Root Cause:
===========
Freelist and remote queue contained the SAME blocks, causing use-after-free:

1. Thread A (owner): pops block X from freelist → allocates to user
2. User writes data ("ab") to block X
3. Thread B (remote): free(block X) → adds to remote queue
4. Thread A (later): drains remote queue → *(void**)block_X = chain_head
   → OVERWRITES USER DATA! 💥

The freelist pop path did NOT drain the remote queue first, so blocks could
be simultaneously in both freelist and remote queue.

Fix:
====
Add remote queue drain BEFORE freelist pop in refill path:

core/hakmem_tiny_refill_p0.inc.h:
  - Call _ss_remote_drain_to_freelist_unsafe() BEFORE trc_pop_from_freelist()
  - Add #include "superslab/superslab_inline.h"
  - This ensures freelist and remote queue are mutually exclusive

Test Results:
=============
BEFORE:
  larson_hakmem (4 threads):  SEGV in seconds (freelist corruption)

AFTER:
  larson_hakmem (4 threads):  931,629 ops/s (1073 sec stable run)
  bench_random_mixed:         1,020,163 ops/s (no crashes)

Evidence:
  - Fail-Fast logs showed next pointer corruption: 0x...6261 (ASCII "ab")
  - Single-threaded benchmarks worked (865K ops/s)
  - Multi-threaded Larson crashed immediately
  - Fix eliminates all crashes in both benchmarks

b7021061b8 Fix: CRITICAL double-allocation bug in trc_linear_carve()
Root Cause:
trc_linear_carve() used meta->used as cursor, but meta->used decrements
on free, causing already-allocated blocks to be re-carved.

Evidence:
- [LINEAR_CARVE] used=61 batch=1 → block 61 created
- (blocks freed, used decrements 62→59)
- [LINEAR_CARVE] used=59 batch=3 → blocks 59,60,61 RE-CREATED!
- Result: double-allocation → memory corruption → SEGV

Fix Implementation:
1. Added TinySlabMeta.carved (monotonic counter, never decrements)
2. Changed trc_linear_carve() to use carved instead of used
3. carved tracks carve progress, used tracks active count

Files Modified:
- core/superslab/superslab_types.h: Add carved field
- core/tiny_refill_opt.h: Use carved in trc_linear_carve()
- core/hakmem_tiny_superslab.c: Initialize carved=0
- core/tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h: Add next pointer validation
- core/hakmem_tiny_free.inc: Add drain/free validation

Test Results:
 bench_random_mixed: 950,037 ops/s (no crash)
 Fail-fast mode: 651,627 ops/s (with diagnostic logs)

c9053a43ac Phase 6-2.3~6-2.5: Critical bug fixes + SuperSlab optimization (WIP)
## Phase 6-2.3: Fix 4T Larson crash (active counter bug) 
**Problem:** 4T Larson crashed with "free(): invalid pointer", OOM errors
**Root cause:** core/hakmem_tiny_refill_p0.inc.h:103
  - P0 batch refill moved freelist blocks to TLS cache
  - Active counter NOT incremented → double-decrement on free
  - Counter underflows → SuperSlab appears full → OOM → crash
**Fix:** Added ss_active_add(tls->ss, from_freelist);
**Result:** 4T stable at 838K ops/s 

## Phase 6-2.4: Fix SEGV in random_mixed/mid_large_mt benchmarks 
**Problem:** bench_random_mixed_hakmem, bench_mid_large_mt_hakmem → immediate SEGV
**Root cause #1:** core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:92-95
  - "Guess loop" dereferenced unmapped memory when registry lookup failed
**Root cause #2:** core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:115
  - Header magic check dereferenced unmapped memory
**Fix:**
  1. Removed dangerous guess loop (lines 92-95)
  2. Added hak_is_memory_readable() check before dereferencing header
     (core/hakmem_internal.h:277-294 - uses mincore() syscall)
**Result:**
  - random_mixed (2KB): SEGV → 2.22M ops/s 
  - random_mixed (4KB): SEGV → 2.58M ops/s 
  - Larson 4T: no regression (838K ops/s) 

## Phase 6-2.5: Performance investigation + SuperSlab fix (WIP) ⚠️
**Problem:** Severe performance gaps (19-26x slower than system malloc)
**Investigation:** Task agent identified root cause
  - hak_is_memory_readable() syscall overhead (100-300 cycles per free)
  - ALL frees hit unmapped_header_fallback path
  - SuperSlab lookup NEVER called
  - Why? g_use_superslab = 0 (disabled by diet mode)

**Root cause:** core/hakmem_tiny_init.inc:104-105
  - Diet mode (default ON) disables SuperSlab
  - SuperSlab defaults to 1 (hakmem_config.c:334)
  - BUT diet mode overrides it to 0 during init

**Fix:** Separate SuperSlab from diet mode
  - SuperSlab: Performance-critical (fast alloc/free)
  - Diet mode: Memory efficiency (magazine capacity limits only)
  - Both are independent features, should not interfere

**Status:** ⚠️ INCOMPLETE - New SEGV discovered after fix
  - SuperSlab lookup now works (confirmed via debug output)
  - But benchmark crashes (Exit 139) after ~20 lookups
  - Needs further investigation

**Files modified:**
- core/hakmem_tiny_init.inc:99-109 - Removed diet mode override
- PERFORMANCE_INVESTIGATION_REPORT.md - Task agent analysis (303x instruction gap)

**Next steps:**
- Investigate new SEGV (likely SuperSlab free path bug)
- OR: Revert Phase 6-2.5 changes if blocking progress

b6d9c92f71 Fix: SuperSlab guess loop & header magic SEGV (random_mixed/mid_large_mt)
## Problem
bench_random_mixed_hakmem and bench_mid_large_mt_hakmem crashed with SEGV:
- random_mixed: Exit 139 (SEGV) 
- mid_large_mt: Exit 139 (SEGV) 
- Larson: 838K ops/s  (worked fine)

Error: Unmapped memory dereference in free path

## Root Causes (2 bugs found by Ultrathink Task)

### Bug 1: Guess Loop (core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:92-95)
```c
for (int lg=21; lg>=20; lg--) {
    SuperSlab* guess=(SuperSlab*)((uintptr_t)ptr & ~mask);
    if (guess && guess->magic==SUPERSLAB_MAGIC) {  // ← SEGV
        // Dereferences unmapped memory
    }
}
```

### Bug 2: Header Magic Check (core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:115)
```c
void* raw = (char*)ptr - HEADER_SIZE;
AllocHeader* hdr = (AllocHeader*)raw;
if (hdr->magic != HAKMEM_MAGIC) {  // ← SEGV
    // Dereferences unmapped memory if ptr has no header
}
```

**Why SEGV:**
- Registry lookup fails (allocation not from SuperSlab)
- Guess loop calculates 1MB/2MB aligned address
- No memory mapping validation
- Dereferences unmapped memory → SEGV

**Why Larson worked but random_mixed failed:**
- Larson: All from SuperSlab → registry hit → never reaches guess loop
- random_mixed: Diverse sizes (8-4096B) → registry miss → enters buggy paths

**Why LD_PRELOAD worked:**
- hak_core_init.inc.h:119-121 disables SuperSlab by default
- → SS-first path skipped → buggy code never executed

## Fix (2-part)

### Part 1: Remove Guess Loop
File: core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:92-95
- Deleted unsafe guess loop (4 lines)
- If registry lookup fails, allocation is not from SuperSlab

### Part 2: Add Memory Safety Check
File: core/hakmem_internal.h:277-294
```c
static inline int hak_is_memory_readable(void* addr) {
    unsigned char vec;
    return mincore(addr, 1, &vec) == 0;  // Check if mapped
}
```

File: core/box/hak_free_api.inc.h:115-131
```c
if (!hak_is_memory_readable(raw)) {
    // Not accessible → route to appropriate handler
    // Prevents SEGV on unmapped memory
    goto done;
}
// Safe to dereference now
AllocHeader* hdr = (AllocHeader*)raw;
```

f6b06a0311 Fix: Active counter double-decrement in P0 batch refill (4T crash → stable)
## Problem
HAKMEM 4T crashed with "free(): invalid pointer" on startup:
- System/mimalloc: 3.3M ops/s 
- HAKMEM 1T: 838K ops/s (-75%) ⚠️
- HAKMEM 4T: Crash (Exit 134) 

Error: superslab_refill returned NULL (OOM), active=0, bitmap=0x00000000

## Root Cause (Ultrathink Task Agent Investigation)
Active counter double-decrement when re-allocating from freelist:

1. Free → counter-- 
2. Remote drain → add to freelist (no counter change) 
3. P0 batch refill → move to TLS cache (forgot counter++)  BUG!
4. Next free → counter--  Double decrement!

Result: Counter underflow → SuperSlab appears "full" → OOM → crash

## Fix (1 line)
File: core/hakmem_tiny_refill_p0.inc.h:103

+ss_active_add(tls->ss, from_freelist);

Reason: Freelist re-allocation moves block from "free" to "allocated" state,
so active counter MUST increment.

## Verification
| Setting        | Before  | After          | Result       |
|----------------|---------|----------------|--------------|
| 4T default     |  Crash |  838,445 ops/s | 🎉 Stable    |
| Stability (2x) | -       |  Same score   | Reproducible |

## Remaining Issue
 HAKMEM_TINY_REFILL_COUNT_HOT=64 triggers crash (class=4 OOM)
- Suspected: TLS cache over-accumulation or memory leak
- Next: Investigate HAKMEM_TINY_FAST_CAP interaction

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 
```
