From 547fe6063247b70ba520046780ca56cdafdb198c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hetoku Date: Mon, 18 May 2026 11:01:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 01/38] design: sentinel migration completion plan Captures the end-state contract (sentinel as sole source of truth, RAY_ATTR_HAS_NULLS retained as check-free fast-path gate, nullmap[16] arm decommissioned), the 6-stage work plan, and the test/perf strategy. Supersedes the in-code multi-phase plan at include/rayforce.h:309-346. All work lands on this branch; one completion PR against master at the end per the no-partial-state-to-master rule. --- ...-05-18-sentinel-migration-finish-design.md | 149 ++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 149 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-18-sentinel-migration-finish-design.md diff --git a/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-18-sentinel-migration-finish-design.md b/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-18-sentinel-migration-finish-design.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..933d573b --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-18-sentinel-migration-finish-design.md @@ -0,0 +1,149 @@ +# Sentinel-null migration — completion design + +**Status:** Draft +**Date:** 2026-05-18 +**Author:** Anton (with Claude) +**Branch:** `sentinel-migration-finish` (off master `717feba8`) +**Supersedes:** in-code phase plan documented at `include/rayforce.h:309–346` + +--- + +## Goal + +Make the per-type `NULL_*` sentinel the **sole source of truth** for null.

Commits are structured for review; the final PR squashes/merges as a single completion against master. + +### Stage 1 — Consumer audit & test baseline + +1. **Catalog every reader** of `ray_vec_is_null`, `nullmap[0] & 1`, `nullmap[`*n*`]`, `RAY_ATOM_IS_NULL`, `ext_nullmap`. Group by file/operator. The catalog lives in this design doc (appendix, populated during Stage 1 of implementation). +2. **Run the full test suite** at the branch base, save the result, and add any thin-coverage regressions identified during the audit. Specifically: tests that exercise sentinel-only reads (no bitmap fallback) on every operator that currently reads the bitmap. + +### Stage 2 — Consumer cutover + +Operator by operator, convert per-element null queries to sentinel compares. For each conversion: + +- Replace `ray_vec_is_null(v, i)` with the type-dispatched sentinel compare on `ray_data(v)[i]`. +- Replace `(x->nullmap[0] & 1)` atom checks with payload-union sentinel compare on `x`. +- Keep the surrounding `(attrs & HAS_NULLS)` gate intact — only the inner per-element query changes. +- Run the relevant test subset after each operator. + +Operators expected in scope (from the audit): `collection.c` (count/sort/distinct/group entry paths), `strop.c` (string ops), `dict.c` (key handling), `morsel.c` (morsel-level null routing), `vec.c` (the helpers themselves), plus any operator-specific paths surfaced by the audit. + +### Stage 3 — Producer cutover + +1. Strip bitmap writes from `ray_vec_set_null` — it now writes only the sentinel and the `HAS_NULLS` attribute. +2. Strip bitmap maintenance from every other producer that currently dual-writes. The Phase 3a-13 / Phase 2g / Phase 2e sites already write the sentinel; this stage just removes the parallel bitmap write. +3. Remove `ext_nullmap` allocation in `ray_vec_new` / wherever the >128-element bitmap currently allocates. + +### Stage 4 — Storage reclamation + +1. Rename `ray_t.nullmap[16]` → `ray_t.aux[16]` (final name TBD during implementation — keep it short and neutral). +2. Remove the `ext_nullmap` member from the pointer-pair union arm; keep `sym_dict`. The arm becomes `{ sym_dict, _reserved }` or collapses if no other consumer needs the second pointer. +3. Update the union doc comment in `include/rayforce.h` to drop the per-element-null-bitmap arm description. +4. Remove `RAY_ATOM_IS_NULL`'s bitmap-bit fallback (it becomes a pure sentinel + `RAY_NULL_OBJ` check). + +### Stage 5 — Doc + cleanup + +1. Replace the multi-phase historical block in `include/rayforce.h` (lines ~309–346) with the final sentinel-only contract. +2. Update `.claude/skills/sentinel-null-conventions/SKILL.md` to drop the dual-encoding language and reflect the final state. +3. Remove dead code: `ray_vec_is_null`, `ray_vec_nullmap_bytes`, any `bitmap` helpers in `vec.c` with no remaining callers. +4. Final perf check against the benchmark suite. + +### Stage 6 — Single completion PR + +One PR against master, titled "Sentinel-null migration: complete cutover." Body summarises the end-state contract and links this design doc. No interim PRs. + +## Test strategy + +- **Regression coverage:** the existing `test/rfl/null/*` suite (including `f64_dual_encoding.rfl`, `integer_dual_encoding.rfl`, `grouped_agg_null_correctness.rfl`) must keep passing — these were written to detect *dual-encoding* divergence, but they also detect any "null produces wrong value" regression as a side effect. +- **New tests added in Stage 1:** + - Per-operator "sentinel-only" tests: write a vec where the bitmap arm is deliberately wrong (or simulated absent), confirm the operator still gets the right answer via sentinel. + - `HAS_NULLS=0` fast-path tests: write a vec with `HAS_NULLS` clear and confirm every operator takes the fast path with no per-element checks. +- **Sanitizer pass:** ASAN/UBSAN run on the branch after Stage 4 — the renamed union arm is the highest-risk change for stale pointer arithmetic. The `sanitizer-output-interpreter` agent can triage failures. +- **Perf pass:** benchmark suite (h2o + clickbench bottleneck) before merging. `perf-regression-reviewer` agent compares branch vs. master baseline. + +## Risks + +| Risk | Mitigation | +|---|---| +| Missed consumer still reads bitmap → silent wrong-result | Stage 1 audit must be exhaustive; sentinel-only tests in Stage 1 catch the rest | +| `HAS_NULLS` falsely cleared by a producer → sentinel slot read as a real value | Same producer rule has always existed; no new risk, but worth verifying every `attrs &= ~HAS_NULLS` site clears it only after a confirmed scan | +| `INT_MIN` user value collides with sentinel | Accepted hazard, documented at Phase 3a; persists | +| Slice over nullable parent loses null awareness | Slice shares buffer → sentinels visible through view; targeted test confirms | +| Perf regression from losing bitmap fast lookup | `HAS_NULLS` attribute survives; per-element lookup becomes a sentinel compare (single instruction). Measure to confirm | +| Branch lifetime causes merge conflicts with concurrent work | Migration touches ~700 sites; merge conflicts inevitable.

Implementation may surface decisions (e.g. final name of the renamed union arm, whether `RAY_ATOM_IS_NULL` becomes an inline function or stays a macro); those are tactical and resolved on the branch.

First execution exposed ~40 test failures + 1 ASAN SEGV across 9 test files and ~17 operator source files (reverted at f8a2e9c0). The doc's "all gaps closed" claim was overstated. Adds a debug-only consistency check guarded by -DRAYFORCE_NULL_AUDIT: ray_vec_is_null cross-checks the bitmap answer against sentinel_is_null and logs each divergent caller (deduped by return address, max 128 sites) to stderr with a backtrace. Behavior unchanged in non-audit builds; bitmap remains authoritative until Stage 2 of the revised plan. Adds `make audit` target.

This works today because the dest's bitmap is set by ray_vec_copy_nulls before the loop runs, but it breaks under sentinel-as-source-of-truth: the cast loop overwrote the dest payload before the fill loop runs, so a sentinel- based ray_vec_is_null on the dest returns false at every slot. Walk the SOURCE (val) instead. Source's null state is the source of truth for the cast, and works uniformly under either bitmap- or sentinel-authoritative readers. Source has the sentinel because all upstream producers (parse.c, CSV ingest, ray_typed_null, etc.) write both the bitmap and the sentinel per Phase 2/3a. Also splits the LIST branch out cleanly: ray_vec_set_null already writes both encodings per Phase 3a-4, so the LIST case returns before the post-fill block runs. No behavior change for LIST input.

Every operator that calls ray_vec_set_null or its checked form to mark a result-slot null (cast paths, joins, ASOF fill, sort sentinel reorder, group-by per-(group, agg) finalization, dict upsert, expr/strop result-fill, etc.) was producing bitmap-only nulls.

Types without a sentinel (BOOL, U8, GUID, F32) retain the bitmap path — they're either non-nullable per Phase 1 or have a deferred sentinel design. Approach: type-switch in ray_vec_is_null with bitmap fallback for the sentinel-less types. Audit instrumentation cross-checks the sentinel answer against the bitmap for the flipped types only (BOOL/U8/GUID suppressed as before). Producer surface for the flipped types was audited clean in S1.1..S1.7 (zero divergent callers), so no behavioral regression for the sentinel types.

Empty string IS a null STR atom; tests that assumed distinction between "" and null are updated to the new semantic. 2. NULL_GUID = 16 all-zero bytes (canonical convention). Core changes ------------ - RAY_ATOM_IS_NULL becomes a type-dispatched inline function. Atom null for F64 = NaN, I*/temporal = INT_MIN sentinel, SYM = id 0, STR = empty (slen==0 AND obj==NULL — long strings overlay obj on the union, so a non-NULL obj pointer can have a low byte that reads as slen=0; the AND obj==NULL guard prevents false positives), GUID = 16 zero bytes in obj's U8 payload. BOOL/U8/F32 still bitmap-based (no sentinel committed for those types). - ray_typed_null(-RAY_GUID) now allocates a fresh ray_guid with 16 zero bytes (instead of leaving obj=NULL), so consumers can ray_data the obj unconditionally and cmp.c's GUID compare branch doesn't trip on a typed-null GUID's NULL obj. - sentinel_is_null + ray_vec_set_null_checked gain RAY_GUID arms: read/write 16 zero bytes at payload + idx*16 for the null sentinel. - ray_vec_is_null promotes GUID from the bitmap-fallback type list into the sentinel-supporting list. Test updates (per user direction 1) ----------------------------------- - test/test_dict.c: empty-string and all-zero-GUID lookups now find the null slot (index 1) rather than returning -1. Documented conflation per the design doc. - test/test_lang.c (insert_guid): typed-null GUID atom's obj is non-NULL post-migration; check the 16-byte payload is all zeros instead of asserting obj==NULL. - test/rfl/integration/null.rfl: (nil? "") --> true. - test/rfl/arith/sqrt.rfl: (nil? (sqrt -1.0)) --> true; (!= NaN NaN) --> false (cmp.c null-handling treats two nulls as equal). - test/rfl/strop/split.rfl: split "" "," yields a one-element vector whose only element is null; assert via nil? rather than [0Nc] (parser rejects that literal form). - test/rfl/agg/pearson_corr.rfl: undefined-result detection via nil? rather than self != self (same cmp.c null-handling implication). - test/rfl/integration/fused_group_parity.rfl + test/rfl/type/as.rfl: INT_MIN values now round-trip as typed null (documented hazard in include/rayforce.h NULL_* block — sentinel collision with user- stored INT_MIN). - test/rfl/system/read_csv.rfl: SYM-vec vs null-STR-atom filter behavior changed; documented tension for follow-up.

Macros refactored: - REDUCE_LOOP_I / DISPATCH_I gain a NULL_SENT parameter (the type- correct NULL_* literal). Per-element bitmap byte read replaced with `raw == NULL_SENT`. - REDUCE_LOOP_F null check becomes `v != v` (NaN self-equality). - BOOL/U8 dispatch dropped from DISPATCH_I — those types have no sentinel. Inlined a small loop in reduce_range that calls ray_vec_is_null (falls back to legacy bitmap path for these types until Phase 1 lockdown lands). Contexts shrunk: - par_reduce_ctx_t: drops null_bm field. - cdpg_ctx_t: drops null_bm field. cdpg_hist_fn / cdpg_scat_fn use a new cdpg_is_null inline helper that mirrors sentinel_is_null but specialised for cdpg's pre-resolved (base, in_type, esz). SYM null detection becomes `sym_id == 0` directly. FIRST/LAST short-circuit at the top of the scalar reduce path now calls ray_vec_is_null per row instead of indexing into null_bm bytes. Same dispatch shape, just one helper call instead of two arithmetic ops. Stage 3' converters #3–#7 of 14.

The byte-level fast paths trade SIMD speedups for sentinel-based correctness once the bitmap arm is reclaimed. Re-vectorising on top of payload-sentinel scans is a future perf-engineering task. Stage 3' complete (14/14 converters). Full suite: 2450/2451. make audit: 0 divergences.

Production code never reads it — null_bits is consumed only by test/test_morsel.c — but the bitmap-pointer publication blocks the Stage 3 strip: post-strip the source bitmap is stale zeros and null_bits would silently misreport "no nulls." Replace the bitmap-pointer publication with on-demand synthesis: ray_morsel_t gains a RAY_MORSEL_ELEMS/8 = 128-byte null_bits_buf scratch field. Per morsel, ray_morsel_next scans the current chunk via ray_vec_is_null (sentinel-based for the sentinel-supported types, bitmap fallback for BOOL/U8) and packs the bits into null_bits_buf. null_bits points into that buffer so existing consumers — including the test fixtures — see the same byte/bit layout as before. Cost: one O(morsel_len) sentinel scan per chunk, paid only when HAS_NULLS is set on the source. morsel_len is bounded at 1024 so this is well under a microsecond per morsel.

The per-element bitmap is no longer maintained for these types — all readers (ray_vec_is_null, RAY_ATOM_IS_NULL, morsel synthesis, group/query/expr/serde kernels) went sentinel-only in S1.*–S3''.1. BOOL / U8 retain the legacy bitmap path until Phase 1 lockdown lands. Tests updated in place (per user direction option 2 — rewrite, no deletion) for the 7 cases that asserted bitmap-internal artifacts (NULLMAP_EXT attr, ext_nullmap pointer, raw nullmap[] snapshot, ray_vec_nullmap_bytes return value). Each rewrite drops the bitmap-flag assertions and keeps the round-trip / null-detection checks via ray_vec_is_null: - test_index_attach_drop_with_ext_nullmap: still exercises attach + drop on a >128-element vec with nulls; asserts null state survives via ray_vec_is_null instead of comparing nullmap[] snapshots and NULLMAP_EXT flags. - test_index_nullmap_helper_slice: drops the ray_vec_nullmap_bytes pointer / bit-offset assertions; keeps slice-relative ray_vec_is_null checks. - test_index_null_readers_through_helper: replaces the bitmap-byte before/after assertions with ray_vec_is_null calls before and after attach (sentinel-based reads see through the union-arm index pointer overlay correctly). - test_index_persistence_roundtrip: drops the pre-attach NULLMAP_EXT assertion (it's gone post-strip; the round-trip null-detection assertions are unchanged). - test_index_retain_saved_ext_nullmap: drops the NULLMAP_EXT precondition; the shared-COW + drop + sentinel-read invariant on `b` still holds. - test_morsel_has_index_ext_nulls: drops NULLMAP_EXT / saved_attrs assertions; keeps morsel iteration null_bits check via the synthesized buffer. - test_col_ext_nullmap_roundtrip: drops NULLMAP_EXT / ext_nullmap pointer assertions on both ray_col_load and ray_col_mmap paths; keeps the ray_vec_is_null + data assertions. Full suite: 2450/2451. make audit reports 202 divergences post- strip — expected and not noise: the audit was Stage 1 instrumentation that cross-checked bitmap-vs-sentinel under dual encoding; now that the bitmap is no longer written for sentinel types, divergence on every null read is by design.

Multiple workers calling on different idx see no contention on the payload (per-slot stores); the attrs OR is atomic so the shared byte is safe.

Three fused-evaluator gaps surfaced once the lockdown removed the HAS_NULLS shortcut that previously rejected fused compilation for narrow integer columns. All three were latent bugs (the unreached branches were no-ops, leaving destination scratch buffers uninitialised); only post-lockdown can the code paths actually exercise them: * expr_exec_unary OP_CAST I64→I64 — sole-buffer view is a no-op, but src and dst are separate scratch slots, so dst must receive the data via memcpy. Same for F64→F64. * expr_exec_unary OP_CAST BOOL→I64 — BOOL scratch is 1 byte/elem, previously fell into the F64 fallback and read past the buffer. * expr_exec_binary OP_AND / OP_OR for the dt=BOOL t1=t2=I64 arm (BOOL cols loaded as I64 abstract via expr_load_i64) and the plain dt=I64 t1=t2=I64 arm. cast_vec_copy_nulls now early-returns for BOOL/U8 destinations: the cast loop has already written the type's zero value at any source-null position, and ray_vec_set_null on the dest would otherwise return RAY_ERR_TYPE. Eleven tests rewritten in place to reflect the lockdown: * test/test_vec.c — null_external pair switched to I16, then assert that set_null on a BOOL/U8 vec returns RAY_ERR_TYPE. * test/test_sort.c — three sort-with-nulls tests collapsed to lockdown assertions (BOOL/U8 inputs are no-null). * test/test_store.c — serde BOOL stanza now checks non-null round-trip behaviour. * test/rfl/null/cast.rfl — `(as 'B8 [1 0N 3])` collapses the null, so nil? sum is 0 not 1. * test/rfl/collection/distinct.rfl — `(nil? (at (as 'U8 ...) 1))` is false post-lockdown. * test/test_exec.c — expr_unary_cast_narrow_nullable expects 6 / 2 counts; expr_binary_u8_nullable expects 48 / 105 / 15; expr_binary_bool_nullable expects 2 / 4. 2450 / 2451 passing (1 skipped, 0 failed) under DEBUG_CFLAGS (ASan + UBSan). --- src/ops/builtins.c | 6 +++ src/ops/expr.c | 21 ++++++++ src/vec/vec.c | 21 ++++---- test/rfl/collection/distinct.rfl | 5 +- test/rfl/null/cast.rfl | 5 +- test/test_exec.c | 59 +++++++++++---------- test/test_sort.c | 91 ++++++-------------------------- test/test_store.c | 12 +++-- test/test_vec.c | 36 +++++++------ 9 files changed, 116 insertions(+), 140 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/ops/builtins.c b/src/ops/builtins.c index 24c8c3ae..f08667ad 100644 --- a/src/ops/builtins.c +++ b/src/ops/builtins.c @@ -746,6 +746,12 @@ static int cast_match(const char* tname, size_t tlen, const char* target) { /* Helper: copy null bitmap from source vec/list to destination vec. */ static ray_t* cast_vec_copy_nulls(ray_t* vec, ray_t* val) { + /* BOOL / U8 destinations are non-nullable per Phase 1 — there is + * no slot for a null marker.

With the sentinel as sole truth and ray_vec_is_null reading payload, the bitmap is dead weight. * read_csv setup: drop the per-column inline/external bitmap allocation. col_had_null[] stays as the HAS_NULLS bookkeeping. * Parser functions (csv_parse_fn / csv_parse_serial / csv_intern_strings / csv_fill_str_cols) lose their col_nullmaps parameter and the `bits |= 1 << bit` writes from every per-type case. * ctx structs (csv_finalize_ctx_t, csv_par_ctx_t) lose their col_nullmaps field. * Post-parse strip: a single HAS_NULLS attr toggle replaces the bitmap-release / inline-zero branching. SYM narrowing path copies HAS_NULLS without touching any nullmap bytes. * Splayed writer: removes the entire side-channel that wrote a per-column null bitmap file (null_fp / null_tmp_path / null_acc / csv_splayed_writer_null_bit / csv_splayed_writer_zero_nulls) and the tail-concat in csv_splayed_writer_close.

Removed null_bitmap_size / ser_null_bitmap / de_null_bitmap and every call site; size and (de)serializer paths shrink to just `type + attrs + len + data`. HAS_NULLS in the attrs byte tells the decoder to flip the same bit on the reconstructed vec — ray_vec_is_null recovers null state from the sentinel payload. * ops/linkop.c — removed promote_inline_to_ext. Sentinel-encoded nulls don't consume the union arm, so ray_link_attach writes link_target into bytes 8-15 unconditionally. Cleaned up the SYM sym_dict propagation guard in link_deref_array_for_target_col to drop the now-vacuous NULLMAP_EXT branch. * test/test_link.c — test_link_with_inline_nulls_promotes was asserting NULLMAP_EXT on the linked vec. Rewritten in place to reflect the new contract: HAS_LINK + HAS_NULLS coexist freely on a sentinel-encoded column. 2450 / 2451 passing under ASan + UBSan (1 skipped, 0 failed). --- src/ops/linkop.c | 48 +++-------------------- src/store/serde.c | 97 +++++++---------------------------------------- test/test_link.c | 9 +++-- 3 files changed, 24 insertions(+), 130 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/ops/linkop.c b/src/ops/linkop.c index 895e8853..b1beb9aa 100644 --- a/src/ops/linkop.c +++ b/src/ops/linkop.c @@ -33,36 +33,6 @@ #include "lang/env.h" #include -/* -------------------------------------------------------------------------- - * Promote inline nullmap to ext-nullmap before attaching a link. - * - * A linked column places its int64 target sym at nullmap-union bytes 8-15. - * If the column has inline nulls and >64 elements, those bytes hold real - * bitmap bits that would be clobbered.

PASS(); From d674febcbe67c5f45ca209c78fb25a1fb177b993 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hetoku Date: Mon, 18 May 2026 16:18:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 35/38] S4.5: drop dead NULLMAP_EXT / ext_nullmap bitmap surface MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit With the producer-side ext-bitmap arm fully retired (S4.4), the bit 0x20 on vectors and the ext_nullmap pointer it gated are never set anywhere in src/. This commit reclaims the dead surface: - vec.c: delete ray_vec_nullmap_bytes (public), vec_inline_nullmap, read_nullmap_bit, the RAYFORCE_NULL_AUDIT cross-check + audit infrastructure (pthread mutex, backtrace, dedup table), and the vec_drop_index_inplace NULLMAP_EXT restore. ray_vec_is_null becomes a clean sentinel-only reader; the default arm is unreachable in practice (BOOL/U8 locked out at producer) and returns false. - vec.h: drop ray_vec_nullmap_bytes declaration. - idxop.{c,h}: saved_attrs now records HAS_NULLS only; the SYM/STR saved-pointer branches in release_saved/retain_saved were unreachable (only numeric vecs may attach) — both functions are now documented no-ops. attach_finalize / ray_index_drop stop propagating the dead NULLMAP_EXT bit. - heap.{c,h}: drop RAY_ATTR_NULLMAP_EXT release/retain branches in ray_release_owned_refs and ray_retain_owned_refs, the NULLMAP_EXT-aware mmod==1 munmap size add-on, and the ray_detach_owned_refs branch. Remove the #define. Update the bit-layout comment to note 0x20 is reserved (legacy on-disk). - store/col.c: drop the on-save NULLMAP_EXT scrub (no producer sets it anyway). Keep the on-load reject as a local LEGACY_DISK_NULLMAP_EXT_BIT constant for malformed legacy files. - ops/internal.h: par_set_null sheds the bitmap fallback (BOOL/U8 are non-nullable). par_prepare_nullmap becomes a no-op. par_finalize_nulls scans payload sentinels for the post-execution HAS_NULLS check (matches the sentinel-only producer contract). - sort.c / lang/eval.c / ops/collection.c / ops/rerank.c: the sym_dict propagation guards no longer need the `(!HAS_NULLS || NULLMAP_EXT)` clause — bytes 0-7 are no longer overwritten by an inline bitmap. - Makefile: drop the `audit` target (the cross-check it built is gone). - include/rayforce.h: the ext_nullmap union field STAYS (it aliases sym_dict in the same struct arm); update the bytes-0-15 layout comment to reflect the new reality. Tests: - test_heap.c: rewrite test_nullmap_ext_owned_ref → test_sentinel_null_release; test_scratch_realloc_nullmap_ext → test_scratch_realloc_sentinel_nulls. - test_index.c: rewrite test_index_attach_drop_with_ext_nullmap → test_index_attach_drop_large_sentinel_nulls, test_index_retain_saved_ext_nullmap → test_index_drop_shared_with_large_nulls, and test_index_release_saved_str_sym / retain_saved_str_sym → test_index_release_saved_noop / retain_saved_noop (since both helpers are now no-ops). Drop NULLMAP_EXT from the snapshot struct. Trim narrative comments on the remaining tests. - test_store.c: rewrite test_col_ext_nullmap_roundtrip → test_col_large_nullable_roundtrip; test_col_validate_mapped_bitmap_truncated → test_col_validate_mapped_legacy_ext_bitmap_rejected (now exercises the on-load legacy-format reject). - test_morsel.c / test_vec.c: trim historical comments. - test/rfl/{mem/heap_coverage,ops/internal_coverage}.rfl: trim NULLMAP_EXT narrative.

For each conversion: - -- Replace `ray_vec_is_null(v, i)` with the type-dispatched sentinel compare on `ray_data(v)[i]`. -- Replace `(x->nullmap[0] & 1)` atom checks with payload-union sentinel compare on `x`. -- Keep the surrounding `(attrs & HAS_NULLS)` gate intact — only the inner per-element query changes. -- Run the relevant test subset after each operator. - -Operators expected in scope (from the audit): `collection.c` (count/sort/distinct/group entry paths), `strop.c` (string ops), `dict.c` (key handling), `morsel.c` (morsel-level null routing), `vec.c` (the helpers themselves), plus any operator-specific paths surfaced by the audit. - -### Stage 3 — Producer cutover - -1. Strip bitmap writes from `ray_vec_set_null` — it now writes only the sentinel and the `HAS_NULLS` attribute. -2. Strip bitmap maintenance from every other producer that currently dual-writes. The Phase 3a-13 / Phase 2g / Phase 2e sites already write the sentinel; this stage just removes the parallel bitmap write. -3. Remove `ext_nullmap` allocation in `ray_vec_new` / wherever the >128-element bitmap currently allocates. - -### Stage 4 — Storage reclamation - -1. Rename `ray_t.nullmap[16]` → `ray_t.aux[16]` (final name TBD during implementation — keep it short and neutral). -2. Remove the `ext_nullmap` member from the pointer-pair union arm; keep `sym_dict`. The arm becomes `{ sym_dict, _reserved }` or collapses if no other consumer needs the second pointer. -3. Update the union doc comment in `include/rayforce.h` to drop the per-element-null-bitmap arm description. -4. Remove `RAY_ATOM_IS_NULL`'s bitmap-bit fallback (it becomes a pure sentinel + `RAY_NULL_OBJ` check). - -### Stage 5 — Doc + cleanup - -1. Replace the multi-phase historical block in `include/rayforce.h` (lines ~309–346) with the final sentinel-only contract. -2. Update `.claude/skills/sentinel-null-conventions/SKILL.md` to drop the dual-encoding language and reflect the final state. -3. Remove dead code: `ray_vec_is_null`, `ray_vec_nullmap_bytes`, any `bitmap` helpers in `vec.c` with no remaining callers. -4. Final perf check against the benchmark suite. - -### Stage 6 — Single completion PR - -One PR against master, titled "Sentinel-null migration: complete cutover." Body summarises the end-state contract and links this design doc. No interim PRs. - -## Test strategy - -- **Regression coverage:** the existing `test/rfl/null/*` suite (including `f64_dual_encoding.rfl`, `integer_dual_encoding.rfl`, `grouped_agg_null_correctness.rfl`) must keep passing — these were written to detect *dual-encoding* divergence, but they also detect any "null produces wrong value" regression as a side effect. -- **New tests added in Stage 1:** - - Per-operator "sentinel-only" tests: write a vec where the bitmap arm is deliberately wrong (or simulated absent), confirm the operator still gets the right answer via sentinel. - - `HAS_NULLS=0` fast-path tests: write a vec with `HAS_NULLS` clear and confirm every operator takes the fast path with no per-element checks. -- **Sanitizer pass:** ASAN/UBSAN run on the branch after Stage 4 — the renamed union arm is the highest-risk change for stale pointer arithmetic. The `sanitizer-output-interpreter` agent can triage failures. -- **Perf pass:** benchmark suite (h2o + clickbench bottleneck) before merging. `perf-regression-reviewer` agent compares branch vs. master baseline. - -## Risks - -| Risk | Mitigation | -|---|---| -| Missed consumer still reads bitmap → silent wrong-result | Stage 1 audit must be exhaustive; sentinel-only tests in Stage 1 catch the rest | -| `HAS_NULLS` falsely cleared by a producer → sentinel slot read as a real value | Same producer rule has always existed; no new risk, but worth verifying every `attrs &= ~HAS_NULLS` site clears it only after a confirmed scan | -| `INT_MIN` user value collides with sentinel | Accepted hazard, documented at Phase 3a; persists | -| Slice over nullable parent loses null awareness | Slice shares buffer → sentinels visible through view; targeted test confirms | -| Perf regression from losing bitmap fast lookup | `HAS_NULLS` attribute survives; per-element lookup becomes a sentinel compare (single instruction). Measure to confirm | -| Branch lifetime causes merge conflicts with concurrent work | Migration touches ~700 sites; merge conflicts inevitable. Plan: rebase weekly off master; no avoidance | - -## Appendix — Consumer catalog (populated in Stage 1) - -*(To be filled during implementation Stage 1. Format: file:line → which API → which operator → conversion notes.)* - -## Open questions - -None at design time. Implementation may surface decisions (e.g. final name of the renamed union arm, whether `RAY_ATOM_IS_NULL` becomes an inline function or stays a macro); those are tactical and resolved on the branch. diff --git a/include/rayforce.h b/include/rayforce.h index 25a36903..63263331 100644 --- a/include/rayforce.h +++ b/include/rayforce.h @@ -315,40 +315,7 @@ ray_t* ray_typed_null(int8_t type); * directly (e.g. `x == NULL_I64`, `x != x` for NaN); there are no predicate * macros or aliases.

Rename the macro's locals (`_ins_v`, `_ins_h`, `_ins_slot`, `_ins_cur`) so they cannot collide with caller scope.
