# Phase 64 Implementation Report: Ownership P3 Production Integration ## Executive Summary **Status**: ✅ Complete **Date**: 2025-12-12 **Feature Gate**: `normalized_dev` **Test Results**: 49/49 tests passing, no regressions Successfully integrated OwnershipPlan analysis into production P3 (if-sum) route with dev-only validation and Fail-Fast consistency checks. ## Implementation Overview ### Changes Made #### 1. Core API: `analyze_loop()` helper (`ast_analyzer.rs`) **Purpose**: Analyze a single loop with parent context for P3 production integration. ```rust pub fn analyze_loop( condition: &ASTNode, body: &[ASTNode], parent_defined: &[String], ) -> Result ``` **Features**: - Creates temporary function scope for parent-defined variables - Analyzes loop scope with condition (is_condition=true) and body - Returns OwnershipPlan for loop scope only (not parent scope) - Private helper `build_plan_for_scope()` for single-scope extraction **Key Design**: Avoids analyzing entire function - only analyzes the specific loop being lowered. #### 2. P3 Production Integration (`pattern3_with_if_phi.rs`) **Location**: Inside `lower_pattern3_if_sum()` method, after ConditionEnv building **Integration Point**: ```rust #[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")] { use crate::mir::join_ir::ownership::analyze_loop; // Collect parent-defined variables let parent_defined: Vec = self.variable_map.keys() .filter(|name| *name != &loop_var_name) .cloned() .collect(); // Analyze loop match analyze_loop(condition, body, &parent_defined) { Ok(plan) => { // Run consistency checks check_ownership_plan_consistency(&plan, &ctx.carrier_info, &condition_binding_names)?; // Continue with existing lowering (analysis-only) } Err(e) => { // Warn and continue (analysis is optional) } } } ``` **Key Design**: Analysis happens **after** ConditionEnv but **before** JoinIR lowering, ensuring: - All existing infrastructure is available for comparison - No behavior change to lowering (analysis-only) - Fail-Fast on critical errors only (multi-hop relay) #### 3. Consistency Checks (`check_ownership_plan_consistency()`) **Check 1: Multi-hop relay rejection (Fail-Fast)** ```rust for relay in &plan.relay_writes { if relay.relay_path.len() > 1 { return Err(format!( "Phase 64 limitation: multi-hop relay not supported. Variable '{}' has relay path length {}", relay.name, relay.relay_path.len() )); } } ``` **Why Fail-Fast**: Multi-hop relay requires semantic design beyond Phase 64 scope. **Check 2: Carrier set consistency (warn-only)** ```rust let plan_carriers: BTreeSet = plan.owned_vars .iter() .filter(|v| v.is_written) .map(|v| v.name.clone()) .collect(); let existing_carriers: BTreeSet = carrier_info.carriers .iter() .map(|c| c.name.clone()) .collect(); if plan_carriers != existing_carriers { eprintln!("[phase64/ownership] Carrier set mismatch (warn-only, order SSOT deferred):"); eprintln!(" OwnershipPlan carriers: {:?}", plan_carriers); eprintln!(" Existing carriers: {:?}", existing_carriers); } ``` **Why warn-only**: Carrier order SSOT is deferred to Phase 65+. This is a monitoring check only. **Check 3: Condition captures consistency (warn-only)** ```rust let plan_cond_captures: BTreeSet = plan.condition_captures .iter() .map(|c| c.name.clone()) .collect(); if !plan_cond_captures.is_subset(condition_bindings) { let extra: Vec<_> = plan_cond_captures .difference(condition_bindings) .collect(); eprintln!("[phase64/ownership] Extra condition captures in plan (warn-only): {:?}", extra); } ``` **Why warn-only**: Some patterns may legitimately have extra captures during development. #### 4. Regression Tests (`normalized_joinir_min.rs`) **Test 1: `test_phase64_p3_ownership_prod_integration()`** - **Pattern**: `loop(i < 10) { local sum=0; local i=0; sum=sum+i; i=i+1; }` - **Verifies**: - Owned vars: sum (is_written=true), i (is_written=true, is_condition_only=true) - No relay writes (all loop-local) - Single-hop relay constraint **Test 2: `test_phase64_p3_multihop_relay_detection()`** - **Pattern**: Nested loops with function-scoped variable written in inner loop - **Verifies**: - Multi-hop relay detection (relay_path.len() = 2) - Documents that rejection happens in consistency check (not analyze_loop) ### Test Results ```bash # Phase 64 specific tests cargo test --features normalized_dev --test normalized_joinir_min test_phase64 # Result: 2/2 passed # Ownership module tests cargo test --features normalized_dev --lib ownership # Result: 23/23 passed # Full normalized_joinir_min suite cargo test --features normalized_dev --test normalized_joinir_min # Result: 49/49 passed (no regressions) ``` ## Design Decisions ### Why `analyze_loop()` instead of full function analysis? **Decision**: Create a loop-specific helper that analyzes only the loop scope. **Rationale**: - P3 production route only needs loop-level information - Full function analysis would require threading through call stack - Loop-specific API matches the existing P3 lowering architecture - Simpler to test and verify correctness ### Why dev-only (normalized_dev feature)? **Decision**: Gate all new code with `#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]`. **Rationale**: - Analysis-only implementation (no behavior change) - Early detection of inconsistencies without risk - Allows iterative refinement before canonical promotion - Easy to disable if issues are discovered ### Why Fail-Fast only for multi-hop relay? **Decision**: Only reject multi-hop relay (`relay_path.len() > 1`), warn for other mismatches. **Rationale**: - Multi-hop relay requires semantic design (Phase 65+) - Carrier set mismatches might indicate existing edge cases (monitor first) - Condition capture extras might be expected during development - Fail-Fast only for truly blocking issues ### Why integrate after ConditionEnv building? **Decision**: Call `analyze_loop()` after ConditionEnv is built but before JoinIR lowering. **Rationale**: - ConditionEnv provides condition_bindings for comparison - CarrierInfo is available from PatternPipelineContext - ExitMeta will be available after lowering for future comparison - No behavior change - analysis is non-invasive ## Constraints and Limitations ### Phase 64 Constraints 1. **Single-hop relay only**: `relay_path.len() > 1` → Err 2. **Analysis-only**: No changes to lowering behavior 3. **Dev-only**: `#[cfg(feature = "normalized_dev")]` throughout 4. **Warn-only mismatches**: Carrier set and condition captures ### Known Limitations 1. **No carrier order SSOT**: Existing CarrierInfo order is preserved 2. **No owner-based init**: Legacy `FromHost` initialization unchanged 3. **No multi-hop relay support**: Out of scope for Phase 64 4. **Parent context simplification**: Uses all `variable_map` keys except loop_var ## Future Work (Phase 65+) ### Phase 65: Carrier Order SSOT **Goal**: Use OwnershipPlan to determine carrier order (upgrade warn to error). **Changes**: - Make OwnershipPlan the source of truth for carrier set - Remove existing carrier inference logic - Enforce carrier order consistency (fail on mismatch) ### Phase 66: Owner-Based Initialization **Goal**: Replace legacy `FromHost` with owner-based initialization. **Changes**: - Use OwnershipPlan to determine initialization strategy - Implement proper initialization for relay writes - Handle condition-only carriers correctly ### Phase 67+: Multi-Hop Relay Support **Goal**: Remove `relay_path.len() > 1` limitation. **Semantic Design Needed**: - How to represent multi-hop relay in JoinIR - PHI insertion strategy for intermediate loops - Boundary input/output handling - Exit line connection across multiple loops ## References - **Phase 62**: [Ownership P3 Route Design](phase62-ownership-p3-route-design.md) - **Phase 63**: [AST Ownership Analyzer](../../../private/roadmap2/phases/normalized_dev/phase-63-ast-ownership-analyzer.md) - **Phase 64 Summary**: [PHASE_64_SUMMARY.md](PHASE_64_SUMMARY.md) - **JoinIR Architecture**: [joinir-architecture-overview.md](joinir-architecture-overview.md) ## Conclusion Phase 64 successfully connects OwnershipPlan analysis to production P3 route with: - ✅ Dev-only validation (no behavior change) - ✅ Fail-Fast for critical errors (multi-hop relay) - ✅ Comprehensive consistency checks (carrier set, condition captures) - ✅ Full test coverage (49/49 tests passing) - ✅ Zero regressions The implementation provides a solid foundation for Phase 65+ enhancements while maintaining existing functionality.
