Summary:
========
Implemented C5 ULTRA TLS cache pattern following the successful C6 ULTRA design:
- Phase 5-1: Free-side TLS cache + segment learning
- Phase 5-2: Alloc-side TLS pop for complete free+alloc cycle integration
Targets C5 class (129-256B) as next legacy reduction after C6 completion.
Key Changes:
============
1. NEW FILES:
- core/box/tiny_c5_ultra_free_box.h: C5 ULTRA TLS cache structure
- core/box/tiny_c5_ultra_free_box.c: C5 free path implementation (same pattern as C6)
- core/box/tiny_c5_ultra_free_env_box.h: ENV gating (HAKMEM_TINY_C5_ULTRA_FREE_ENABLED)
2. MODIFIED FILES:
- core/front/malloc_tiny_fast.h:
* Added C5 ULTRA includes
* Added C5 alloc-side TLS pop at lines 186-194 (integrated with C6)
* Added C5 free path at lines 333-337 (integrated with C6)
- core/box/tiny_ultra_classes_box.h:
* Added TINY_CLASS_C5 constant
* Added tiny_class_is_c5() macro
* Extended tiny_class_is_ultra() to include C5
- core/box/free_path_stats_box.h:
* Added c5_ultra_free_fast counter
* Added c5_ultra_alloc_hit counter
- core/box/free_path_stats_box.c:
* Updated stats dump to output C5 counters
- Makefile:
* Added core/box/tiny_c5_ultra_free_box.o to all object lists
3. Design Rationale:
- Exact copy of C6 ULTRA pattern (proven effective)
- TLS cache capacity: 128 blocks (same as C6 for consistency)
- Segment learning on first C5 free via ss_fast_lookup()
- Alloc-side pop integrated directly in malloc_tiny_fast.h hotpath
- Legacy fallback unification via tiny_legacy_fallback_free_base()
4. Expected Impact:
- C5 legacy calls: 68,871 → 0 (100% elimination)
- Total legacy reduction: ~53% of remaining 129,623
- Mixed workload: Minimal regression (C5 is smaller class, fewer allocations)
5. Stats Collection:
Run with: HAKMEM_TINY_C5_ULTRA_FREE_ENABLED=1 HAKMEM_FREE_PATH_STATS=1 ./bench_allocators_hakmem
Expected output:
[FREE_PATH_STATS] ... c5_ultra_free=68871 c5_ultra_alloc=68871 ... legacy_fb=60752 ...
[FREE_PATH_STATS_LEGACY_BY_CLASS] ... c5=0 ...
Status:
=======
- Code: ✅ COMPLETE (3 new files + 5 modified files)
- Compilation: ✅ Verified (no errors, only unused variable warnings unrelated to C5)
- Functionality: Ready to benchmark (ENV gating: default OFF, opt-in via ENV)
Phase Progression:
==================
✅ Phase 4-4: C6 ULTRA free+alloc (legacy C6: 137,319 → 0)
✅ Phase 5-1/5-2: C5 ULTRA free+alloc (legacy C5: 68,871 → 0 expected)
⏳ Phase 4.5: C4 ULTRA (34,727 remaining)
📋 Future: C3/C2 ULTRA if beneficial
