## Root Cause
TLS drain was dropping pointers when SuperSlab lookup or slab_idx validation failed:
- Pop pointer from TLS SLL
- Lookup/validation fails
- continue → LEAK! Pointer never returned to any freelist
## Impact
Memory leak + potential double allocation:
1. Pointer P popped but leaked
2. Same address P reallocated from carve/other source
3. User frees P again → duplicate detection → ABORT
## Fix
**Before (BUGGY)**:
```c
if (!ss || invalid_slab_idx) {
continue; // ← LEAK!
}
```
**After (FIXED)**:
```c
if (!ss || invalid_slab_idx) {
// Push back to TLS SLL head (retry later)
tiny_next_write(class_idx, base, g_tls_sll[class_idx].head);
g_tls_sll[class_idx].head = base;
g_tls_sll[class_idx].count++;
break; // Stop draining to avoid infinite retry
}
```

// tls_sll_drain_box.h - Box: TLS SLL Periodic Drain
|
|
// Purpose: Restore slab accounting consistency by periodically draining TLS SLL to slab freelists
|
|
//
|
|
// Problem:
|
|
// - Fast free path (hak_tiny_free_fast_v2) pushes to TLS SLL without decrementing meta->used
|
|
// - Slabs never appear empty → SuperSlabs never freed → LRU cache never populated
|
|
// - Result: 6,455 mmap/munmap syscalls per 200K iterations (74.8% time)
|
|
//
|
|
// Solution:
|
|
// - Every N frees (default: 1024), drain TLS SLL → slab freelist
|
|
// - This path decrements meta->used properly via tiny_free_local_box()
|
|
// - Enables empty detection → SuperSlabs freed → LRU cache functional
|
|
//
|
|
// Expected Impact:
|
|
// - mmap/munmap: 6,455 → ~100 calls (-96-97%)
|
|
// - Throughput: 563K → 8-10M ops/s (+1,300-1,700%)
|
|
//
|
|

|
|
// - Root cause: PHASE9_LRU_ARCHITECTURE_ISSUE.md
|
|
// - Design: Option B (Periodic TLS SLL Drain)
