# Phase 6.13: L2.5 LargePool Implementation - Completion Report
|
||
|
||
**Date**: 2025-10-21
|
||
**Status**: ✅ **COMPLETED** - Significant performance improvement achieved!
|
||
**Implementation**: hakmem_l25_pool.c/h (330 lines), integrated into hakmem.c
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🎯 **Goal**
|
||
|
||
Fill the 64KB-1MB allocation gap between L2 Pool (2-32KB) and BigCache (≥1MB).
|
||
|
||
**Target Performance**:
|
||
- mir scenario (256KB): +47.8% → **< +20%** vs mimalloc
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## ✅ **Implementation Completed**
|
||
|
||
### **1. L2.5 LargePool Design**
|
||
- **5 Size Classes**: 64KB, 128KB, 256KB, 512KB, 1MB
|
||
- **Page-Granular Management**: 64KB page units
|
||
- **Site-Based Sharding**: 64 shards (same as L2 Pool)
|
||
- **O(1) Class Lookup**: Branchless LUT (lookup table)
|
||
- **Non-Empty Bitmap**: O(1) empty freelist detection
|
||
|
||
### **2. L2 Pool Pattern Adoption**
|
||
**Pattern**: Embedded freelist nodes in allocated memory
|
||
```c
|
||
typedef struct L25Block {
|
||
struct L25Block* next; // Embedded in allocated memory
|
||
} L25Block;
|
||
|
||
// Freelist uses raw pointer (header start)
|
||
// No separate metadata structures
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Benefits**:
|
||
- Simple memory management (single malloc/free per bundle)
|
||
- No double-free issues
|
||
- Low overhead
|
||
|
||
### **3. Phase 6.10.1 Optimization Patterns Applied**
|
||
- ✅ **P1**: memset削除 (15-25% 高速化)
|
||
- ✅ **P2**: branchless クラス決定 (LUT化 + inline)
|
||
- ✅ **P3**: non-empty ビットマップ (O(1) empty class skip)
|
||
- ✅ **Site-based routing**: O(1) site_id → shard mapping
|
||
|

|
||
|
||

|
||
vm (2MB): 41312 ns (+142.8% vs mimalloc) ⚠️

|
||
Class 256KB : hits= 100 misses=0 refills=1 frees= 100 (100.0% hit) ✅
|
||
|
||
Total bundles allocated: 2
|
||
Total bytes allocated: 0 MB (minimal overhead)
|
||
```
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 🐛 **Bugs Fixed During Implementation**
|
||
|
||
### **Bug #1: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer**
|
||
**Cause**: Initial implementation used separate L25PageBundle structure with malloc'd metadata
|
||
**Problem**: Double-free and memory management issues
|
||
**Fix**: Adopted L2 Pool pattern - embedded freelist nodes in allocated memory
|
||
|
||
**Code Change**:
|
||
```c
|
||
// Before (WRONG):
|
||
typedef struct L25PageBundle {
|
||
struct L25PageBundle* next;
|
||
void* base; // Separate malloc
|
||
size_t num_pages;
|
||
} L25PageBundle;
|
||
|
||
// After (CORRECT):
|
||
typedef struct L25Block {
|
||
struct L25Block* next; // Embedded in allocated memory
|
||
} L25Block;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### **Bug #2: [L2.5] ERROR: Invalid magic in block!**
|
||
**Cause**: Freelist next pointer overwrote magic number in header
|
||
**Problem**: Header validation failed after popping from freelist
|
||
**Fix**: Re-write entire AllocHeader after popping from freelist
|
||
|
||
**Code Fix** (hakmem_l25_pool.c:233-242):
|
||
```c
|
||
// Pop block from freelist
|
||
g_l25_pool.freelist[class_idx][shard_idx] = block->next;
|
||
|
||
// L2 Pool pattern: header was written by refill_freelist, but magic may be
|
||
// overwritten by freelist next pointer. Re-write header here.
|
||
void* raw = (void*)block;
|
||
AllocHeader* hdr = (AllocHeader*)raw;
|
||
|
||
hdr->magic = HAKMEM_MAGIC;
|
||
hdr->method = ALLOC_METHOD_L25_POOL;
|
||
hdr->size = g_class_sizes[class_idx];
|
||
hdr->alloc_site = site_id;
|
||
hdr->class_bytes = 0;
|
||
```

||
## 🎯 **Next Steps Recommendation**
|
||
|
||
### **P0 (最優先)**: Phase 6.11 - BigCache最適化
|
||
**理由**: vm scenario (+234.6%) が最大のボトルネック
|
||
- 2MB allocations 最適化
|
||
- BigCache site-class table の改善
|
||
- Dynamic Thresholds 導入
|
||
|
||
### **P1 (次点)**: Phase 6.13.1 - L2.5 Pool Fine-tuning
|
||
**理由**: mir scenario は +22.2% → あと2.2%で目標 <+20% 到達
|
||
- Site Rules の L2.5 routing 強化
|
||
- Refill strategy 最適化
|
||
- Shard balancing 改善
|
||
|
||
### **P2 (後回し)**: Phase 6.12.1 - Tiny Pool P0最適化
|
||
**理由**: json scenario は既に +4.3% で優秀
|
||
- P0 最適化(Option B: Slab先頭16Bメタデータ埋め込み)
|
||
- TLS (Thread-Local Storage) 導入
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 💡 **Technical Insights**
|
||
|
||
### **1. L2 Pool Pattern の威力**
|
||
- シンプル = 強い(複雑なメタデータ不要)
|
||
- 単一 malloc/free で完結(double-free リスクなし)
|
||
- フリーリストの再利用が自然(header overwrites は仕様)
|
||
|
||
### **2. Branchless LUT の効果**
|
||
```c
|
||
static const int8_t SIZE_TO_CLASS[] = {
|
||
-1, 0, 1, -1, 2, -1, -1, -1, 3, ...
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
// O(1) lookup, zero branches
|
||
int class_idx = SIZE_TO_CLASS[size / 64KB];
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### **3. Non-Empty Bitmap の重要性**
|
||
```c
|
||
// O(1) empty check
|
||
if (!(g_l25_pool.nonempty_mask[class_idx] & (1ULL << shard_idx))) {
|
||
return NULL; // No need to check freelist
|
||
}
|
||
```
