Why Batching Works: // - TLS ops are 20x cheaper than atomic ops (0.5ns vs 10ns) // - Allocation is bursty (256 allocs in tight loops common) // - Flush overhead amortizes to near-zero (0.04 ns) // // 2. Why 256 Batch Size: // - Power of 2: Fast bit-mask check (no division) // - Not too large: Counters fit in 32-bit (no overflow) // - Not too small: Good amortization (0.04 ns overhead) // // 3. Accuracy: // - Exact counts (not sampled approximations) // - Eventual consistency (flush delay < 1 microsecond) // - Diagnostic flush ensures snapshot accuracy // // 4. Thread Safety: // - TLS counters: No locks (thread-local) // - Global flush: Atomic add (lock-free) // - No races, no contention // // 5. Memory Overhead: // - 2 * 8 classes * 4 bytes = 64 bytes per thread // - Negligible compared to TLS magazine (16 KB) // // ============================================================================ #else // !HAKMEM_ENABLE_STATS // ============================================================================ // No-Op Macros (Statistics Disabled) // ============================================================================ // // When HAKMEM_ENABLE_STATS is not defined, all statistics functions become // no-ops that the compiler will optimize away (zero overhead). // // ============================================================================ // No-op inline functions (optimized away by compiler) static inline void stats_record_alloc(int class_idx) __attribute__((always_inline)); static inline void stats_record_alloc(int class_idx) { (void)class_idx; // Silence unused parameter warning } static inline void stats_record_free(int class_idx) __attribute__((always_inline)); static inline void stats_record_free(int class_idx) { (void)class_idx; // Silence unused parameter warning } static inline void stats_flush_batch(void) __attribute__((always_inline)); static inline void stats_flush_batch(void) { // No-op } static inline void stats_diagnostic_flush(void) __attribute__((always_inline)); static inline void stats_diagnostic_flush(void) { // No-op } #endif // HAKMEM_ENABLE_STATS #endif // HAKMEM_TINY_STATS_H
