# 本線タスク（現在）
|
||
|
||
## 現在地: FREE-TINY-FAST-DUALHOT-1 確認完了 ✅ (+13% improvement confirmed)
|
||
|
||
### Phase FREE-TINY-FAST-DUALHOT-1: CONFIRMED & READY FOR ADOPTION
|
||
|
||
**Final A/B Verification (2025-12-13)**:
|
||
- **Baseline (DUALHOT OFF)**: 42.08M ops/s (median, 10-run, Mixed)
|
||
- **Optimized (DUALHOT ON)**: 47.81M ops/s (median, 10-run, Mixed)
|
||
- **Improvement**: **+13.00%** ✅
|
||
- **Health Check**: PASS (verify_health_profiles.sh)
|
||
- **Safety Gate**: HAKMEM_TINY_LARSON_FIX=1 disables for compatibility
|
||
|
||
**Strategy**: Recognize C0-C3 (48% of frees) as "second hot path"
|
||
- Skip policy snapshot + route determination for C0-C3 classes
|
||
- Direct inline to `tiny_legacy_fallback_free_base()`
|
||
- Implementation: `core/front/malloc_tiny_fast.h` lines 461-477
|
||
- Commit: `2b567ac07` + `b2724e6f5`
|
||
|
||
**Promotion Candidate**: YES - Ready for MIXED_TINYV3_C7_SAFE default profile
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
### Phase ALLOC-TINY-FAST-DUALHOT-1: RESEARCH BOX ✅ (WIP, -2% regression)
|
||
|
||
**Implementation Attempt**:
|
||
- ENV gate: `HAKMEM_TINY_ALLOC_DUALHOT=0/1` (default OFF)
|
||
- Early-exit: `malloc_tiny_fast()` lines 169-179
|
||
- A/B Result: **-1.17% to -2.00%** regression (10-run Mixed)
|
||
|
||
**Root Cause**:
|
||
- Unlike FREE path (early return saves policy snapshot), ALLOC path falls through
|
||
- Extra branch evaluation on C4-C7 (~50% of traffic) outweighs C0-C3 policy skip
|
||
- Requires structural changes (per-class fast paths) to match FREE success
|
||
|
||
**Decision**: Freeze as research box (default OFF, retained for future study)
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 次の攻め先: Profile Adoption & Remaining Optimization
|
||
|
||
**優先度 A** - Free 昇格:
|
||
- FREE-TINY-FAST-DUALHOT-1 を MIXED_TINYV3_C7_SAFE profile に取り込む準備
|
||
- ENV: HAKMEM_TINY_LARSON_FIX=0 as default (DUALHOT ON)
|
||
|
||
**優先度 B** - Alloc 構造最適化（deferred）:
|
||
- `malloc` / Front Gate の "構造的" オーバーヘッド改善
|
||
- PGO / const propagation / inline optimizations
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## 前フェーズ: Phase POOL-MID-DN-BATCH 完了 ✅（研究箱として freeze 推奨）
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
### Status: Phase POOL-MID-DN-BATCH 完了 ✅ (2025-12-12)
|
||
|
||
**Summary**:
|
||
- **Goal**: Eliminate `mid_desc_lookup` from pool_free_v1 hot path by deferring inuse_dec
|
||
- **Performance**: 当初の計測では改善が見えたが、後続解析で「stats の global atomic」が大きな外乱要因だと判明
|
||
- Stats OFF + Hash map の再計測では **概ねニュートラル（-1〜-2%程度）**
|
||
- **Strategy**: TLS map batching (~32 pages/drain) + thread exit cleanup
|
||
- **Decision**: Default OFF (ENV gate) のまま freeze（opt-in 研究箱）
|
||
|
||
**Key Achievements**:
|
||
- Hot path: Zero lookups (O(1) TLS map update only)
|
||
- Cold path: Batched lookup + atomic subtract (32x reduction in lookup frequency)
|
||
- Thread-safe: pthread_key cleanup ensures pending ops drained on thread exit
|
||
- Stats: `HAKMEM_POOL_MID_INUSE_DEFERRED_STATS=1` のときのみ有効（default OFF）
|
||
|
||
**Deliverables**:
|
||
- `core/box/pool_mid_inuse_deferred_env_box.h` (ENV gate: HAKMEM_POOL_MID_INUSE_DEFERRED)
|
||
- `core/box/pool_mid_inuse_tls_pagemap_box.h` (32-entry TLS map)
|
||
- `core/box/pool_mid_inuse_deferred_box.h` (deferred API + drain logic)
|
||
- `core/box/pool_mid_inuse_deferred_stats_box.h` (counters + dump)
|
||
- `core/box/pool_free_v1_box.h` (integration: fast + slow paths)
|
||
- Benchmark: +2.8% median, within target range (+2-4%)
|
||
|
||
**ENV Control**:
|
||
```bash
|
||
HAKMEM_POOL_MID_INUSE_DEFERRED=0 # Default (immediate dec)
|
||
HAKMEM_POOL_MID_INUSE_DEFERRED=1 # Enable deferred batching
|
||
HAKMEM_POOL_MID_INUSE_MAP_KIND=linear|hash # Default: linear
|
||
HAKMEM_POOL_MID_INUSE_DEFERRED_STATS=0/1 # Default: 0 (keep OFF for perf)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Health smoke**:
|
||
- OFF/ON の最小スモークは `scripts/verify_health_profiles.sh` で実行
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Status: Phase MID-V35-HOTPATH-OPT-1 FROZEN ✅
|
||
|
||
**Summary**:
|
||
- **Design**: Step 0-3（Geometry SSOT + Header prefill + Hot counts + C6 fastpath）
|
||
- **C6-heavy (257–768B)**: **+7.3%** improvement ✅ (8.75M → 9.39M ops/s, 5-run mean)
|
||
- **Mixed (16–1024B)**: **-0.2%** (誤差範囲, ±2%以内) ✓
|
||
- **Decision**: デフォルトOFF/FROZEN（全3ノブ）、C6-heavy推奨ON、Mixed現状維持
|
||
- **Key Finding**:
|
||
- Step 0: L1/L2 geometry mismatch 修正（C6 102→128 slots）
|
||
- Step 1-3: refill 境界移動 + 分岐削減 + constant 最適化で +7.3%
|
||
- Mixed では MID_V3(C6-only) 固定なため効果微小
|
||
|
||
**Deliverables**:
|
||
- `core/box/smallobject_mid_v35_geom_box.h` (新規)
|
||
- `core/box/mid_v35_hotpath_env_box.h` (新規)
|
||
- `core/smallobject_mid_v35.c` (Step 1-3 統合)
|
||
- `core/smallobject_cold_iface_mid_v3.c` (Step 0 + Step 1)
|
||
- `docs/analysis/ENV_PROFILE_PRESETS.md` (更新)
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Status: Phase POLICY-FAST-PATH-V2 FROZEN ✅
|
||
|
||
**Summary**:
|
||
- **Mixed (ws=400)**: **-1.6%** regression ❌ (目標未達: 大WSで追加分岐コスト>skipメリット)
|
||
- **C6-heavy (ws=200)**: **+5.4%** improvement ✅ (研究箱で有効)
|
||
- **Decision**: デフォルトOFF、FROZEN（C6-heavy/ws<300 研究ベンチのみ推奨）
|
||
- **Learning**: 大WSでは追加分岐が勝ち筋を食う（Mixed非推奨、C6-heavy専用）
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
### Status: Phase 3-GRADUATE FROZEN ✅
|
||
|
||
**TLS-UNIFY-3 Complete**:
|
||
- C6 intrusive LIFO: Working (intrusive=1 with array fallback)
|
||
- Mixed regression identified: policy overhead + TLS contention
|
||
- Decision: Research box only (default OFF in mainline)
|
||
- Documentation:
|
||
- `docs/analysis/PHASE_3_GRADUATE_FINAL_REPORT.md` ✅
|
||
- `docs/analysis/ENV_PROFILE_PRESETS.md` (frozen warning added) ✅

|
||
- Baseline (C6=MID v3.5): 55.3M ops/s
|
||
- ULTRA+array: 57.4M ops/s (+3.79%)
|
||
- ULTRA+intrusive: 54.5M ops/s (-1.44%, fallback=0)
|
||
- GRADUATE-1 Mixed ❌
|
||
- ULTRA+intrusive 約 -14% 回帰（Legacy fallback ≈24%）
|
||
- Root cause: 8 クラス競合による TLS キャッシュ奪い合いで ULTRA miss 増加
|
||
|
||
### Performance Baselines (Current HEAD - Phase 3-GRADUATE)

|
||
3. `main`: 18.41%
|
||
|
||
### Analysis: Bottleneck Identification
|
||
|
||
**Key Observations**:
|
||
|
||
1. **Mixed vs C6-heavy Performance Delta**: Minimal (~2.3% difference)
|
||
- Mixed (51.5M ops/s) vs C6-heavy (52.7M ops/s)
|
||
- Both workloads are performing similarly, indicating hot path is well-optimized
|
||
|
||
2. **Free Path Dominance**: `free` accounts for 29-31% of cycles
|
||
- Suggests free path still has optimization potential
|
||
- C6-heavy shows slightly higher free% (31.44% vs 29.40%)
|
||
|
||
3. **Alloc Path Efficiency**: `tiny_alloc_gate_fast` is 19-26% of cycles
|
||
- Higher in C6-heavy (25.88%) due to MID v3/v3.5 usage
|
||
- Lower in Mixed (19.11%) suggests LEGACY path is efficient
|
||
|
||
4. **Cache & Branch Efficiency**: Both workloads show good metrics
|
||
- Cache miss rates: 7-9% (acceptable for mixed-size workloads)
|
||
- Branch miss rates: ~3.7% (good prediction)
|
||
- No obvious cache/branch bottleneck
|
||
|
||
5. **IPC Analysis**: 1.64-1.67 instructions/cycle
|
||
- Good for memory-bound allocator workloads
|
||
- Suggests memory bandwidth, not compute, is the limiter
|
||
|
||
### Next Phase Decision
|
||
|
||
**Recommendation**: **Phase POLICY-FAST-PATH-V2** (Policy Optimization)
|
||
|
||
**Rationale**:
|
||
1. **Free path is the bottleneck** (29-31% of cycles)
|
||
- Current policy snapshot mechanism may have overhead
|
||
- Multi-class routing adds branch complexity
|
||
|
||
2. **MID/POOL v3 paths are efficient** (only 25.88% in C6-heavy)
|
||
- MID v3/v3.5 is well-optimized after v11a-5
|
||
- Further segment/retire optimization has limited upside (~5-10% potential)
|
||
|
||
3. **High-ROI target**: Policy fast path specialization
|
||
- Eliminate policy snapshot in hot paths (C7 ULTRA already has this)
|
||
- Optimize class determination with specialized fast paths
|
||
- Reduce branch mispredictions in multi-class scenarios
|
||
|
||
**Alternative Options** (lower priority):
|
||
- **Phase MID-POOL-V3-COLD-OPTIMIZE**: Cold path (segment creation, retire logic)
|
||
- Lower ROI: Cold path not showing up in top functions
|
||
- Estimated gain: 2-5%
|
||
|
||
- **Phase LEARNER-V2-TUNING**: Learner threshold optimization
|
||
- Very low ROI: Learner not active in current baselines
|
||
- Estimated gain: <1%
|
||
|
||
### Boundary & Rollback Plan
|
||
|
||
**Phase POLICY-FAST-PATH-V2 Scope**:
|
||
1. **Alloc Fast Path Specialization**:
|
||
- Create per-class specialized alloc gates (no policy snapshot)
|
||
- Use static routing for C0-C7 (determined at compile/init time)
|
||
- Keep policy snapshot only for dynamic routing (if enabled)
|
||
|
||
2. **Free Fast Path Optimization**:
|
||
- Reduce classify overhead in `free_tiny_fast()`
|
||
- Optimize pointer classification with LUT expansion
|
||
- Consider C6 early-exit (similar to C7 in v11b-1)
|
||
|
||
3. **ENV-based Rollback**:
|
||
- Add `HAKMEM_POLICY_FAST_PATH_V2=1` ENV gate
|
||
- Default: OFF (use existing policy snapshot mechanism)
|
||
- A/B testing: Compare v2 fast path vs current baseline
|
||
|
||
**Rollback Mechanism**:
|
||
- ENV gate `HAKMEM_POLICY_FAST_PATH_V2=0` reverts to current behavior
|
||
- No ABI changes, pure performance optimization
|
||
- Sanity benchmarks must pass before enabling by default
|
||
|
||
**Success Criteria**:
|
||
- Mixed workload: +5-10% improvement (target: 54-57M ops/s)
|
||
- C6-heavy workload: +3-5% improvement (target: 54-55M ops/s)
|
||
- No SEGV/assert failures
|
||
- Cache/branch metrics remain stable or improve

|
||
|
||
### 結論
|
||
|
||
1. **Hot path最適化で大幅改善**: Baseline +17-26%、MID v3.5 ON +3-32%
|
||
2. **C7 early-exitが効果大**: Policy snapshot回避で約10M ops/s向上
|
||
3. **MID v3.5はC6-heavyで有効**: C6主体ワークロードで+8%改善
|
||
4. **Mixedワークロードではbaselineが最適**: LEGACYパスがシンプルで速い
|

- C7 ULTRA early-exit: `tiny_c7_ultra_enabled_env()` (static cached) で判定
|
||
- Policy snapshot: TLSキャッシュ + version check (version mismatch時のみ再初期化)
|
||
- Single switch: route_kind[class_idx] で分岐（ULTRA/MID_V35/V7/MID_V3/LEGACY）

|
||
- `core/smallobject_segment_mid_v3.o`
|
||
- `core/smallobject_cold_iface_mid_v3.o`
|
||
- `core/smallobject_stats_mid_v3.o`
|
||
- `core/smallobject_learner_v2.o`
|
||
|
||
**Build Results**:
|
||
- Clean compilation with only minor warnings (unused functions)
|
||
- All object files successfully linked
|
||
- Benchmark executable built successfully
|
||
|
||
**Sanity Benchmark Results**:
|
||
```bash
|
||
./bench_random_mixed_hakmem 100000 400 1
|
||
Throughput = 27323121 ops/s [iter=100000 ws=400] time=0.004s
|
||
RSS: max_kb=30208
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Performance: **27.3M ops/s** (baseline maintained, no regression)
|
||
|
||
## Architecture
|
||
|
||
### Layer Structure
|
||
```
|
||
L3: Learner v2 (smallobject_learner_v2.c)
|
||
↑ (stats aggregation)
|
||
L2: StatsBox (smallobject_stats_mid_v3.c)
|
||
↑ (publish events)
|
||
L2: ColdIface (smallobject_cold_iface_mid_v3.c)
|
||
↑ (refill/retire)
|
||
L2: SegmentBox (smallobject_segment_mid_v3.c)
|
||
↑ (page management)
|
||
L1: [Future: Hot path integration]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Data Flow
|
||
1. **Page Refill**: ColdIface → SegmentBox (take from free stack)
|
||
2. **Page Retire**: ColdIface → StatsBox (publish) → Learner (aggregate)
|
||
3. **Decision**: Learner calculates C5 ratio → routing decision (v7 vs MID_v3)
|
||
|
||
## Key Design Decisions
|
||
|
||
1. **No Hot Path Integration**: Phase v11a-2 focuses on infrastructure only
|
||
- Existing MID v3 routing unchanged
|
||
- New code is dormant (linked but not called)
|
||
- Ready for future activation
|
||
|
||
2. **ULTRA Geometry Reuse**: 2MiB segments, 64KiB pages
|
||
- Proven design from C7 ULTRA
|
||
- Efficient for C5-C7 range (257-1024B)
|
||
- Good balance between fragmentation and overhead
|
||
|
||
3. **Per-Class Free Stacks**: Independent page pools per class
|
||
- Reduces cross-class interference
|
||
- Simplifies page accounting
|
||
- Enables per-class statistics
|
||
|
||
4. **Exponential Smoothing**: 90% historical + 10% new
|
||
- Stable metrics despite workload variation
|
||
- React to trends without noise
|
||
- Standard industry practice
|
||
