codegen: a float accumulator over masked reads earns the dense range clone — 17_loop_data_dependent at node parity (475→219ms) - #9303
Conversation
…PerryTS#9253) `16_matrix_multiply`'s inner loop spends 97% of its time inside generated code with no runtime calls, so its cost was never a missed inlining. Per iteration, for BOTH receivers, it re-derived the pointer tag check, the handle-band check, the header dereference, the `_reserved` flag tests and the two 16,000,000 length/capacity sanity compares -- for receivers that are loop-invariant PARAMETERS whose headers cannot change inside the loop. LLVM cannot hoist any of it: the guard reloads the header through a pointer it cannot prove unaliased, and the incremental-barrier atomic read is a motion barrier. for (let k = 0; k < size; k++) sum = sum + a[i * size + k] * b[k * size + j]; The packed-f64 RANGE tier already had everything this needs except the index shape: a loop-invariant local/parameter bound with runtime i32 materialization, N-array guard emission AND-reduced into one branch, N-fact pushing, and GC-safe receiver caching refreshed at the back-edge poll. What it lacked was a way to describe `a[i * size + k]`, whose index has no compile-time window. So an access may now be AFFINE: an integer-producing expression over the loop counter and loop-invariant integer locals. Such an access publishes a receiver-only fact -- the entry guard proves plain-array shape, raw-f64 packedness, integrity and the 16M sanity bounds ONCE in the preheader, which is exactly the per-iteration work this issue measured -- and each read pays one inline `icmp ult idx, len` with the fact's existing side exit. Three things the arm is careful about: * The index is materialized in **i64**, not i32. `i * size` can exceed i32 for a large matrix even when the final index is valid, and computing in i32 would wrap -- turning an out-of-bounds access into an in-bounds one. Every leaf is a proven i32, so the arithmetic cannot overflow i64. * The bounds compare is **unsigned**, so a negative index reads as a huge unsigned value and side-exits. No static non-negativity proof is needed, which matters because `size` is a parameter with no callsite range summary -- `int_range_expr` answers `None` for the whole product. * The index must **mention the counter**. A wholly loop-invariant index (`a[0]`, `a[1]`) is affine by the grammar but has a compile-time window, and the DENSE tier's masked path serves it better. Admitting it here made the classic walker succeed and silently stole those loops from that tier -- a regression caught by an existing test's INERT CONTROL, not by its subject. Classic mode only: dense mode's loads carry no side exit, so it cannot take a per-read bounds check, and an affine STORE is rejected outright because the side exit re-executes the iteration. Matcher and lowering share one leaf test deliberately; admitting a shape the lowering declines emits a helper call, and the clone's call-free scan then discards the whole clone (the PerryTS#9259 cascade). Measured on an idle Mac mini (load 1.3), self-timed min of 7, checksums identical to node on every run: 16_matrix_multiply 100 ms -> 69 ms (node 32 ms; 3.03x -> 2.16x) The dev box was useless for this -- at load average 107 the same baseline measured 170 ms with a 123 ms spread against a 93 ms effect. Not parity yet. The residual is the per-read bounds check and index materialization, plus the `c[i * size + j]` store in the enclosing loop, which stays generic because an affine store cannot take the side exit. perry-codegen lib 1378/0; packed-loop integration suite 50/0 across 9 files; 3 new regression tests including out-of-bounds and negative-index side exits under PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Pcq6j6y57TdKSR2Zx2D187
The PerryTS#9288 If arm (merged to main after this branch's base) calls packed_f64_range_loop_pure_expr_collect without the affine_leaf_ok parameter this branch added, so the rebased branch did not compile. Dense mode passes None: its loads have no side exit, so the affine (bounds-checked) index arm never applies there. Recording how it was missed, since the miss is the reusable part: the post-rebase verification piped cargo through 'tail -1', which swallowed the failure and exited 0, and the tests then ran a pre-rebase binary containing semantically identical code. The measurements stand; the build gate did not. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Pcq6j6y57TdKSR2Zx2D187

The discriminator was the accumulator's static numeric proof. `+` can be
concatenation, so the dense tier's per-statement proof demands both operands
numeric; a reassigned accumulator has no such proof, because its own writes
read the guarded array, whose element proof only exists once the guard has
run. A chicken-and-egg that `*` never faces -- multiplication needs only the
weaker inert fact. Confirmed by instrumenting the two conjuncts of the dense
LocalSet arm: the failing one is the proof, on exactly the fixtures whose
accumulator writes contain a plain-array read.
The matcher now peels the accumulator: when the proof fails on the LocalSet
target of a self-accumulating write, it retries with the target treated as
numeric BY CONTRACT, records it pending, and then verifies every pending
local with the same collector the lowering runs
(`collect_numeric_accumulators`), rejecting the whole dense match with its
own named trace reasons (`accumulator_needs_single_array`,
`accumulator_not_provable`) if the two disagree -- so the clone can never
contain a dynamic `+` under facts that forbid one.
The contract is enforced at run time twice over: the clone's entry emits a
genuine-double tag check on the accumulator, and the dense entry guard
validates the whole masked window hole-free. A string-seeded accumulator and
a string element both route to the slow copy and produce node's
concatenation, verified under PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE.
Supporting changes:
* `accumulator_rhs_is_numeric` accepts masked static-window reads of the
tracked array (`masked_reads_validated`), sound because the dense guard
validated the window union hole-free. Fixing that exposed a match-arm
reachability bug: `_ if offset_reads_inlined` was a guarded catch-all, so
ANY arm placed after it was unreachable whenever the flag was set -- the
first version of this change sat exactly there and verified as a no-op.
The two tests are now one combined catch-all.
* `emit_range_loop_accumulator_admission` admits a masked-only single array
(counter-bearing arrays keep priority; multiple arrays still decline).
* `MaskedWindowArrayFact` carries `numeric_accumulators` so `is_numeric_expr`
sees admitted accumulators while the clone lowers -- without this the add
inside the clone would stay dynamic, which is a collecting call under facts
that assume none (the PerryTS#9259 cascade shape). Mirrors the string-window
fact's field (PerryTS#9160).
perry-codegen lib 1378/0; packed-loop integration suite 59/0 across 11 files;
3 new regression tests (admission + node-identical result, string-seeded
accumulator, string element), each under forced evacuation.

LLVM LangRef: What are the overflow semantics of integer add, sub, and mul instructions when they do not have nsw or nuw flags?
💡 Result:
In the LLVM Language Reference Manual, integer add, sub, and mul instructions that do not have the nsw (No Signed Wrap) or nuw (No Unsigned Wrap) flags behave according to standard two's complement modular arithmetic [1]. When an overflow occurs during these operations without these flags, the result simply wraps around, and no poison value is produced [2][3]. This wrapping behavior is the default, well-defined semantics for these instructions in the absence of wrap-restricting flags [1]. In contrast, if the nsw or nuw flags are present, they provide additional information to the compiler: - nuw: Indicates that unsigned overflow is a violation of the operation's contract. If unsigned overflow occurs, the result is a poison value [3]. - nsw: Indicates that signed overflow is a violation of the operation's contract. If signed overflow occurs, the result is a poison value [2][3]. For scenarios where overflow detection is required, LLVM provides specific arithmetic with overflow intrinsics (e.g., llvm.sadd.with.overflow., llvm.uadd.with.overflow.) that return both the result and a flag indicating whether an overflow occurred [4][5].

Add an overflow side exit for affine i64 arithmetic.
packed_f64_range_loop_index_is_affine_with recursively accepts nested Add, Sub, and Mul expressions without an intermediate-value bound. emit_affine_index_i64 emits wrapping LLVM i64 arithmetic. A product such as i * 2 * ... * 2 can wrap to zero, pass the icmp_ult ceiling check, and read a[0] instead of treating the large JavaScript numeric key as an absent property. Use checked arithmetic with a side exit, or reject expressions that cannot be proven i64-safe.

Use an affine expression in the negative-index regression.
a[k - 3] takes the counter-offset path. It does not test the new affine path. Use an expression such as a[k * 1 - 3] so this test validates affine i64 materialization and its unsigned side exit.

`accumulator_not_provable`) if the two disagree -- so the clone can never
contain a dynamic `+` under facts that forbid one.
The contract is enforced at run time twice over: the clone's entry emits a
genuine-double tag check on the accumulator, and the dense entry guard
validates the whole masked window hole-free. A string-seeded accumulator and
a string element both route to the slow copy and produce node's
concatenation, verified under PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE.
Supporting changes:
* `accumulator_rhs_is_numeric` accepts masked static-window reads of the
tracked array (`masked_reads_validated`), sound because the dense guard
validated the window union hole-free. Fixing that exposed a match-arm
reachability bug: `_ if offset_reads_inlined` was a guarded catch-all, so
ANY arm placed after it was unreachable whenever the flag was set -- the
first version of this change sat exactly there and verified as a no-op.
The two tests are now one combined catch-all.
* `emit_range_loop_accumulator_admission` admits a masked-only single array
(counter-bearing arrays keep priority; multiple arrays still decline).
* `MaskedWindowArrayFact` carries `numeric_accumulators` so `is_numeric_expr`
sees admitted accumulators while the clone lowers -- without this the add
inside the clone would stay dynamic, which is a collecting call under facts
that assume none (the #9259 cascade shape). Mirrors the string-window
fact's field (#9160).

is a `-D warnings` failure. Removing it is #9308's fix, which the combined arm

#9318) Follow-up to #9294, from the review flag on its sibling PR (#9303's closing review): "nested affine arithmetic can overflow before bounds validation and potentially read a different in-bounds element than the normal path." The flag is correct about the arithmetic. #9294's claim that proven-i32 leaves cannot overflow i64 holds for one multiply (|i32 * i32| <= 2^62) and fails beyond it: three chained near-2^31 factors reach 2^93, wrap i64, and a wrapped value landing inside [0, len) passes the unsigned bounds check and silently reads a DIFFERENT element than the generic path -- JS computes the index in doubles, goes out of bounds, and yields `undefined`. Measured honestly: the wrap is LATENT today, not live. Neither a const-folded spelling nor parameter leaves of a triple-multiply chain currently reach the affine lowering -- admission happens to be blocked by which locals carry i32 shadow slots, an accident of unrelated analyses rather than a guarantee. Widening shadow coverage is a plausible future change, and it would have turned this into a silent wrong-read with no failing test anywhere. Both the const-local and parameter spellings were built and run against a main-built compiler to establish that. The fix is `affine_index_magnitude_bound`: interval arithmetic in i128 at match time with every leaf at its i32 extreme, admitting a tree only when its worst case fits i63 -- so the guarantee is structural and admission costs nothing at run time. `i * size + k` (2^62 + 2^31) stays admitted; matmul's affine blocks and numbers are unchanged (4 blocks, 72ms, checksum identical). One shared predicate (`affine_index_fits_i64`) gates BOTH the matcher and the lowering, so the two cannot drift. The tripwire test pins the exact 2^64 tree (2^21 * 2^22 * (2^21 + k), k=0) to node's NaN under both collector modes. It passes today on both sides of the fix -- by the accident above -- and exists to FAIL the moment admission widens past the bound: the wrapped read would print s:7.5 (element 0, in bounds, wrong) instead. perry-codegen lib 1378/0; issue_9253_affine_range_index 3/3; rustfmt clean.

… aliasing regression fixed (from #9360) (#9436) * fix(runtime,codegen): recover Uint8Array elements on kind-registry miss; inline the untracked u8 read (#9342) A perry `Uint8Array` is a `BufferHeader` in the buffer registries and can never appear in `lookup_typed_array_kind`'s registry. Two consequences, both fixed here. **Wrong answers.** `js_typed_array_read_f64` and `js_typed_array_read_int32` treated a kind-registry miss as "no element" and returned `undefined` / `0`. Both checked-load lanes admit the class name `"Uint8Array"` (kind 1), so a module-global u8 receiver read `undefined` (or, in `|0` context, a plausible `0`) for EVERY in-range element. The miss arms now recover the element the way every older consumer does: registered-buffer receivers read the byte via `js_buffer_index_get_value`, everything else falls through to `js_typed_array_get`, whose #8109 classifier runs before any header deref — which also retires the stale "deref before classify" hazard note on the i32 helper. **12x in-function read cliff.** `s += buf[i]` over a module-global u8 buffer compiled to a per-element runtime call: the tracked-view fast path only serves `let` bindings the same function constructed. New buffer-lane inline read (`expr/u8_buffer_read.rs`): NaN-box pointer tag + full-address hit in `PERRY_U8_INLINE_CACHE`, bounds against the header length, inline byte load at `header + 8`. Reads only — an inline write twin would bypass `buffer/view.rs` write propagation and desynchronize slice / ArrayBuffer aliases (#1205), which is also why view copies are admissible here. The admission cache holds only live, u8-marked, inline-storage headers: primed by the slow arm (`js_u8_buffer_read_f64`), invalidated inside the single buffer-death chokepoint (`finalize_collected_dead_buffer`) and at address re-issue (`register_buffer`), so ABA rides the same #6080 discipline as every other buffer identity table. Foreign-backed wrappers are refused at prime time. Kill switch: `PERRY_U8_INLINE_READ=0`. Lane ordering matters: the u8 lane runs BEFORE the typed-array checked lane, whose `PERRY_TA_KIND_CACHE` guard can never admit a `BufferHeader` and would otherwise pin every u8 read to its slow helper. That is a pure performance trap — post-fix it produces no wrong answer — so it is pinned structurally by an IR test rather than left to reasoning. Measured (SIZE=1e6 x 50): in-function module-global 560 -> 216 ms; top-level unchanged at parity (49 vs node 44). The residual 216 vs node's 38 is NOT the emitted guard — forcing the guard to always hit measures 218 ms, i.e. free. It is the accumulator's rooting diamond: `lower_guarded_numeric_add` roots every leaf `expr_produces_canonical_raw_f64` won't vouch for, and it cannot vouch for a `Uint8ArrayGet` leaf because the node's value is byte-or- `undefined` (#6884). That is #6904/#9303 territory and is filed separately, along with the unchanged typed-parameter receiver. Tests: `gc/tests/u8_inline_cache.rs` proves the cache lifecycle (prime contract, foreign rejection, death pruning, re-issue pruning) and each invalidation site was sabotage-verified — deleting either call fails exactly its own test. `perry/tests/issue_9342_u8_inline_read.rs` pins lane admission, node-exact values incl. an OOB arm, correctness under `PERRY_GC_HEAP_LIMIT=8 PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE=1`, the kill switch, and the lane ordering (verified red under a deliberate reorder). Assertions count CALL sites, not the `declare` line every module emits — matching the bare symbol name made the absence assertion unpassable and the presence assertion vacuous, both of which were live in the first draft and caught by running it. Follow-up audit of the remaining 197 `lookup_typed_array_kind` miss-consumers filed as #9347. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NbKbYm54HW6cHwEx5FZAtP * perf(codegen): a module-global typed-array receiver earns the numeric proof (444 -> 94 ms) `collectors/ptr_shape_numeric.rs` proved `view[i]` is Number-or-`undefined` from two sources: `numeric_ta_views` (spec-proven `TaPtr` parameters) and `const_local_inits` (a compiler-visible `const` init in the SCANNED body). A module-global `const buf = new Uint8Array(N)` read inside a function has neither, so `acc += buf[i]` lost the accumulator's Number-by-construction proof and every add lowered through the rooted `guarded_add` diamond: a GC shadow-frame load + store + `js_write_barrier_root_nanbox` per element, plus the dynamic-add cold arm. `module_global_proven_types` is the same STRENGTH of proof as `const_local_inits` — derived from the initializer expression on a single- `Let`, never-reassigned binding, not from an annotation (Perry does not enforce those, #7773) — so module-scope views whose construction proves a number-valued typed-array kind now feed the same fixpoint slot. The BigInt kinds are deliberately excluded: their elements are BigInts, not Numbers. Measured (SIZE=1e6 x ITER=100, quiet host, min-of-3): the identical loop over a module-global receiver 444 -> 94 ms, exactly matching the body-local receiver it should always have matched, against node's 79. The receiver's binding form is no longer observable in the emitted loop. ATTRIBUTION, corrected by measurement. The missing proof also leaves a per-iteration `load volatile @PERRY_GC_POLL_ARMED` in the loop, because `loop_may_allocate` stays conservative while the `+` is not inert, and the obvious story is that this volatile load blocks vectorization. It does not pay: admitting the read as inert under the same construction proof (so the poll leaves the loop) measured 94 ms either way, and did not vectorize either — the residual blocker is #9360's per-element admission-cache probe. That change is therefore NOT included: `expr_is_inert_primitive` also governs rooting decisions, and an unmeasured widening of it does not ship. The residual is documented in the test and in #9363. Tests: `issue_9363_module_global_view_numeric_proof.rs` pins the emitted shape against a body-local control (which is asserted clean first, so the comparison cannot pass vacuously) and pins that a REASSIGNED module global is still not admitted — the construction proof's exclusion is load-bearing. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NbKbYm54HW6cHwEx5FZAtP * perf(codegen): vectorize bounded byte-sum reductions (bench_buffer_readwrite 94 -> 34 ms, node 81) Two changes that are each worth NOTHING alone and 2.8x together, which is why they land as one commit. **1. `fadd reassoc` on a proven reduction.** `acc = acc + <byte read>` in a trip-count-bounded loop keeps every partial sum below 2^53, where f64 addition is exact and therefore associative, so any grouping is bit-identical. An out-of-range read yields `undefined` -> NaN, which propagates through every grouping alike, so the OOB case needs no separate argument. This is an exactness proof about the value range, not a tolerance argument, which is why it does not need `--fast-math` (whose global reassociation is unsound for arbitrary f64 chains and is correctly off by default). `contract` is deliberately not added: FMA fusion changes multiply/add rounding, which this proof says nothing about. The admission reuses #7123's trip-count machinery unchanged, as a second mode with a weaker conclusion: a byte read counts with magnitude 255 and the limit is 2^53 rather than `i32::MAX`. The byte-read magnitude is admitted ONLY in this mode — an i32 slot cannot represent the NaN an out-of-range read produces, which is why the storage admission must keep refusing it. **2. Module-init shadow-slot pruning.** `codegen/function.rs` drops root slots for locals the whole-write proof shows can only hold a Number; module init never got that twin. `local_is_inert_primitive` refuses any local that HAS a slot, so a top-level accumulator that was ALREADY proven Number-by-construction was still not inert, `loop_may_allocate` stayed true, and the loop kept a per-iteration `load volatile @PERRY_GC_POLL_ARMED` — which blocks vectorization outright and pins the accumulator in memory. This was the entire reason the identical loop was fast inside a function and slow at top level. Found by instrumenting the purity decision, which printed `acc id=11 shadow=true nbc=true`. Module-scope construction proofs now also reach module-init, closure and method bodies, not just the spec-params path (#9363's first commit threaded only the latter). MEASURED, per change rather than stacked (quiet host, min-of-3): * `bench_buffer_readwrite` 94 -> 34 ms against node's 81. * reassoc alone, top level: 94 -> 94. Zero, because the poll blocks it. * the in-function loop, already poll-free, isolates reassoc: 94 -> 32. A third change was built and DELETED: admitting these accumulators to `local_is_inert_primitive` directly measured 36 vs 34 (noise) once the pruning made `number_by_construction` sufficient on its own, so it does not ship. Tests: `issue_9363_byte_reduction_vectorizes.rs` pins that the reduction carries `reassoc` AND that no poll follows it in that block (each half fails without the other), that an unbounded f64 accumulator does NOT reassociate, and that a pointer-valued module-scope local keeps its root slot — the last under `PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE`, which is the arm that would catch a slot pruned when it was genuinely needed. Node-differential battery (module-global / local / alias receivers, OOB, GC churn, slice-view aliasing) byte-identical, and identical again under heap-limit + forced evacuation. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NbKbYm54HW6cHwEx5FZAtP * perf(codegen): a DECLARED typed-array parameter earns the inline element load (576 -> 235 ms) `receiver_class_name` answers only from `proven_local_types`, which is runtime-derived and therefore always empty for a PARAMETER — its value arrives from outside the body. So the shape this machinery was built for was the one shape it never served: bcryptjs's `_encipher(lr, off, P: Int32Array, S: Int32Array)` does ~600M `S[i]` reads through parameters and emitted a `js_typed_array_get` CALL for every one, while the identical loop over a module-global receiver took the inline checked load. Measured on `bench_typed_array_untyped_access`'s shape: the parameter body emits ZERO `ctaf.get` blocks, the module-global body 66. The declared class is read through `local_type_hint`, the audited escape hatch for "sites whose independent representation proof or runtime guard validates the current value". That is exactly this site: the emitted guard re-derives the truth from `PERRY_TA_KIND_CACHE`, so a wrong declaration misses the cache and defers to the memory-safe helper. A lying annotation costs a missed speedup, never a wrong answer — the same reasoning the module-global arm already carries, and strictly safer here because the guard validates the actual receiver. Reassigned bindings stay excluded per `receiver_class_name`'s #6906 rule. Applied to all three lanes that had the identical hole: the checked f64 read, its i32 twin, and #9342's u8 buffer read. MEASURED, and the two rows disagree in an instructive way: * `buf_ctx` (SIZE=1e6 x 50), `Uint8Array` parameter receiver: 576 -> 235 ms. * `bench_typed_array_untyped_access`: the change FIRES (0 -> 66 blocks) but is FLAT at 1216 ms. That benchmark's cost is its accumulator's dynamic add and shadow-frame rooting, not its reads — the #9361 family. Recorded rather than smoothed over: the same change is worth 2.4x where reads dominate and nothing where they do not. Also of note for that row: its headline metric is already at parity. The untyped/typed ratio it exists to track (#5525) is 1.03 against node's 1.03; the remaining gap is a flat ~4x on BOTH paths, which the ratio cannot express. Tests: `issue_9363_declared_param_typed_array.rs` pins that a declared param takes the inline load (with the module-global body asserted clean FIRST, so a regression disabling both lanes cannot pass vacuously), that a REASSIGNED param is refused, and — the claim the whole optimism rests on — that a LYING annotation still produces node-identical answers, with node itself as the oracle across a plain array, a plain object, a non-indexable scalar and a too-short array, under forced evacuation as well. The binding-type audit carries a written rationale for each of the three new `local_type_hint` uses (93 sites, OK). Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NbKbYm54HW6cHwEx5FZAtP * perf(codegen): a loop-reseeded accumulator earns its i32 slot (bench_typed_array_untyped_access 1216 -> 257 ms, node 290) `collectors/int_valued_ta_locals.rs` exists for bcryptjs `_encipher` — its module doc IS that function — but rejected its own subject's accumulator. The wrap-i32 additive arm was admitted only for a STRAIGHT-LINE (never in-loop) Add/Sub tree, and `n += S[...]` sits in the Feistel `while`. So `n` stayed an f64 slot holding nothing but int32 values, and every S-box step emitted `sitofp` in and `llvm.aarch64.fjcvtzs` out around the `fadd`. WHY THE RESTRICTION WAS TOO COARSE. Its stated hazard is real: an unbounded in-loop chain can carry the true f64 value past 2^53, where it ROUNDS while an i32 slot WRAPS, and rule (2) only guarantees the `ToInt32` image is observed — so the two would then disagree. A per-iteration re-seed removes exactly that hazard, and needs no dominance argument: if the body unconditionally assigns the local a fresh exact-i32 value once per iteration, the chain restarts every iteration no matter WHERE the re-seed sits, so the magnitude never exceeds one body's worth of addends. With each addend below 2^31 a body would need ~4M additive writes to reach 2^53; `_encipher` re-seeds and adds twice, so `|n| < 2^33`. The scan is deliberately narrow. The re-seed must sit at the loop body's TOP level: one nested in an `if`/`switch`/`try` may not run on a given iteration, which is precisely the case where the chain keeps growing. Nested loops are scanned as their own bodies, so an inner loop's re-seed never bounds the outer body's chain. MEASURED (quiet host): typed 1216 -> 257 ms and untyped 1254 -> 258 against node's 290 / 299 — from 4.2x slower to faster than node on BOTH paths. The fixture's own checksum oracle, which throws on any divergence between the typed and untyped states, passes identically. This was the last suite row above node. VERIFIED, and one honest gap. The promotion DECISIONS were checked directly through `PERRY_REPSEL_DEBUG`: `n` is promoted in both `encipher` bodies and in an unconditionally-reseeded fixture, and is refused for a loop with no re-seed, one whose re-seed is `if`-guarded, and one whose re-seed is in an inner loop. Node-differential battery (including those adversarial shapes) byte-identical, and identical again under `PERRY_GC_HEAP_LIMIT=8 PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE=1`. I could NOT prove the conditional-re-seed guard independently load-bearing: I sabotaged it (letting `if`-nested re-seeds count) and failed across three fixture attempts to construct a case whose outcome changes — each failed for a different reason (rule (2) rejected the local first; power-of-two addends made wrapped and exact coincide; a module-global receiver did not reproduce the spec-param admission conditions). So it is defense-in-depth of unproven necessity, stated rather than claimed — the same honesty `loop_safepoint_purity.rs` applies to its own shadow-slot half. Tests: `issue_9363_loop_reseeded_accumulator.rs` pins the Feistel round against node and pins that the three unbounded shapes stay f64, with the oracle itself guarded (the fixture asserts its expected values still exceed i32 range, so a wrongly promoted local would print a wrapped negative rather than a near miss). Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NbKbYm54HW6cHwEx5FZAtP * perf(codegen): the packed-f64 loop clone needs no GC poll (bench_numeric_array_numeric 45 -> 38 ms, node 38) `stmt/loops.rs` already skips the back-edge poll inside three loop-clone fact scopes, and its comment states the rule and predicts this exact case: a poll exists so an ALLOCATING body can defer a collection; `loop_may_allocate` answers from the HIR, where `arr[i] = e` is a generic `IndexSet` that CAN reallocate; and inside a fact scope codegen knows better, because the clone is call-free or it is not entered. The packed-f64 clone is that body and was simply not listed. Its entry guard proves a live packed raw-f64 plain Array with the loop window in bounds, its reads and writes lower to bare `double` load/store over existing slots (so nothing grows, reallocates, or writes a heap edge), and its matcher admits no calls, closures or awaits into the body — the same conjunction the three listed clones rest on. This is therefore not a new licence. WHY IT COST MORE THAN ITS OWN INSTRUCTIONS. The armed word is loaded VOLATILE, which is a clobber inside the loop, so the cached packed receiver base had to be re-derived on every element — the effect #9316's stride comment already describes. That is why striding the poll 1-in-64 did not recover the loss while removing it does: the cost was the clobber, not the frequency. MEASURED (250k x 250, quiet host, min-of-3): 45 -> 38 ms against node's 38. A forced-arm build with polls disabled entirely also lands on 38, so this recovers the whole gap and nothing more — the diagnostic bounded the win before the change was written. Tests: `issue_9379_packed_f64_clone_poll.rs` asserts no poll inside the CLONE's own blocks (module-wide counting would assert something this change never claimed — the fill and outer loops keep their polls), with a vacuity guard that the fixture still admits the tier, and correctness under `PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE` + `PERRY_GC_VERIFY_EVACUATION`, which is the arm that matters when a safepoint is removed. A sibling test pins that an allocating loop still polls, so the skip stays scoped to the fact. Both assertions in the first draft were wrong and perry was right: I counted polls module-wide, and I hand-computed an expected checksum incorrectly. Both now use node as the oracle or the clone's own region. `loop_safepoint_purity` 8/8 and codegen 1379/1379 green. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NbKbYm54HW6cHwEx5FZAtP * fix(runtime): harden byte-read optimization checks * fix(runtime): exclude registered buffer views from the u8 inline cache A view's inline bytes are only a snapshot; runtime reads resolve through buffer/view.rs to the authoritative backing, which a sibling typed array can change without refreshing that snapshot.

A reassigned accumulator has no static numeric proof — its own writes read the guarded array, whose element proof only exists once the guard has run. Chicken-and-egg.

The matcher peels the accumulator: when the proof fails on the
