nyash-codex 771bf6b0d1 feat(joinir): Phase 132-P3 - Exit PHI collision early detection
Added verify_exit_phi_no_collision() to contract_checks.rs for early detection
of ValueId collisions between exit PHIs and other instructions.

Problem detected:
- If exit_phi_builder uses builder.value_gen.next() (module-level) instead of
  func.next_value_id() (function-level), ValueIds can collide:

  Example:
  - bb0: %1 = const 0   (counter init)
  - bb3: %1 = phi ...   (exit PHI - collision!)

Previous behavior:
- Error only detected at LLVM backend runtime
- Cryptic error: "Cannot overwrite PHI dst=1"

New behavior:
- Panic at Rust compile time (debug build)
- Clear error message with fix suggestion:
  "Exit PHI dst %1 collides with instruction in block 0
   Fix: Use func.next_value_id() in exit_phi_builder.rs"

Benefits:
- 🔥 Fail-Fast: Catch errors during Rust compilation, not LLVM execution
- 📋 Clear messages: Exact collision point + fix suggestion
- 🧪 Testable: verify_exit_phi_no_collision() can be unit tested

Phase 131-12: LLVM Wrong Result (Case C)

Status: Root cause identified Problem: LLVM backend returns wrong results for loop exit values Root Cause: vmap object identity mismatch between Pass A and Pass C

Key Documents:

  1. phase131-12-case-c-llvm-wrong-result.md - Initial investigation scope
  2. phase131-12-p1-vmap-identity-analysis.md - Detailed trace analysis
  3. phase131-12-p1-trace-summary.md - Executive summary with fix recommendations

Quick Summary:

  • Bug: Pass A deletes _current_vmap before Pass C runs
  • Impact: Terminators use wrong vmap object, missing all Pass A writes
  • Fix: Store vmap_cur in deferred_terminators tuple (Option 3)

Next Steps:

  1. Implement Option 3 fix in block_lower.py
  2. Add Fail-Fast check in instruction_lower.py
  3. Verify with NYASH_LLVM_VMAP_TRACE=1
  4. Run full test suite

Investigation Workflow

  1. Scope - Define problem and test case (phase131-12-case-c-*.md)
  2. Trace - Add instrumentation and collect data (phase131-12-p1-vmap-identity-*.md)
  3. Analysis - Identify root cause with evidence (phase131-12-p1-trace-summary.md)
  4. Fix - Implement solution with validation
  5. Document - Update investigation notes with results
