Alternatives Considered - -| # | Approach | Pros | Cons | Verdict | -|---|----------|------|------|---------| -| A | **Full refcounting on ALL objects** (like Perl 5) | Correct Perl semantics for everything | Massive perf impact — every scalar copy needs inc/dec; JVM has no stack-local optimization | Rejected: too expensive | -| B | **GC-only (Cleaner, no refcounting)** | Simple, no tracking overhead | Non-deterministic timing breaks tests; proxy problem (see §2.2); previously attempted and failed | Rejected: fundamentally wrong timing | -| C | **Scope-based without refcounting** (PR #450 style) | Simple, deterministic for single-scope | Wrong for returned objects, objects stored in outer scopes — 20+ failures (see §2.1) | Rejected: incorrect without refcount | -| D | **Compile-time escape analysis** | Zero runtime overhead for proven-local objects | Impossible to do perfectly (dynamic dispatch, eval, closures, `push @global, $obj`) | Rejected: too incomplete | -| E | **Explicit destructor registration** (`defer { $obj->cleanup }`) | Simple, deterministic, no refcounting | Not compatible with Perl 5 semantics; breaks existing modules | Rejected: not Perl-compatible | -| **F** | **Targeted refcounting for blessed-with-DESTROY + global destruction at shutdown** | Deterministic for common cases; zero overhead for unblessed; matches Perl 5 semantics for cycles | May miss decrements in obscure paths; overcounted objects delayed to shutdown | **Chosen** | - -**Why F**: It's the only approach that provides correct timing for the common case (lexical -scope, explicit undef, hash delete) while still handling escaped references via global -destruction — the same strategy Perl 5 uses. The key insight is that we don't need to -refcount ALL objects — only the small subset that are blessed AND whose class defines -DESTROY. The existing `ioHolderCount` pattern on `RuntimeGlob` proves this targeted -approach works in this codebase. - -**Why not a Cleaner safety net**: v4.0 of this plan included a `java.lang.ref.Cleaner` -sentinel pattern as a GC-based fallback. Analysis revealed a fundamental flaw: the -Cleaner needs the object alive for DESTROY, but holding the object alive prevents the -sentinel from becoming phantom-reachable. The workaround (separate sentinel/trigger -indirection) adds significant complexity, 8 bytes per RuntimeBase instance, and thread -safety concerns — all for cases that Perl 5 itself handles the same way (DESTROY at -global destruction). Dropping the Cleaner eliminates Phase 4, removes threading -concerns, and reduces per-object memory overhead to +4 bytes (fits in alignment padding). - ---- - -## 4. Optimizations - -Performance is critical — refcount overhead must not regress the hot path. The design uses -several interlocking optimizations to achieve near-zero overhead for common operations. - -### 4.1 Four-State refCount (Eliminates `destroyCalled` boolean) - -Instead of a separate `destroyCalled` boolean, encode the destruction state in `refCount`: - -``` -refCount == -1 → Not tracked (unblessed, or blessed without DESTROY) +refCount == -1 → Not tracked (unblessed, or no DESTROY) refCount == 0 → Tracked, zero counted containers (fresh from bless) -refCount > 0 → Being tracked; N named-variable containers exist -refCount == Integer.MIN_VALUE → DESTROY already called (or in progress) -``` - -**Why four states instead of three**: Bytecode analysis (see §4A) revealed that the -RuntimeScalar created by `bless()` is almost always a temporary — it lives in a JVM -local or interpreter register and travels through the return chain without being -explicitly cleaned up. Setting `refCount = 0` at bless time (instead of 1) means the -bless-time container is not counted. Only when the value is copied into a named `my` -variable via `setLarge()` does refCount increment to 1. - -This eliminates one field from `RuntimeBase` and replaces three separate checks -(`blessId != 0`, `hasDestroy`, `destroyCalled`) with a single integer comparison. - -The field is initialized as `refCount = -1` (untracked) in `RuntimeBase`. This means -all objects — unblessed references, arrays, hashes — start as untracked by default. -Only `bless()` for a class with DESTROY sets `refCount = 0` to begin tracking. - -### 4.2 Zero Fast-Path Cost - -The existing `set()` fast path is: -```java -public RuntimeScalar set(RuntimeScalar value) { - if (this.type < TIED_SCALAR & value.type < TIED_SCALAR) { // bitwise AND, no branch - this.type = value.type; - this.value = value.value; - return this; - } - return setLarge(value); -} -``` - -All reference types have `type >= 0x8000` (REFERENCE_BIT), so they ALWAYS take the slow -path through `setLarge()`. **Refcount logic lives only in `setLarge()`**, meaning the hot -path (int/double/string/undef/boolean assignments) pays zero cost. - -### 4.3 Unified Gate: `refCount >= 0` - -In `setLarge()`, the entire refcount block is: - -```java -// NEW: Track blessed-object refCount (after existing ioHolderCount block) - -// Save old referent BEFORE the assignment (for correct DESTROY ordering) -RuntimeBase oldBase = null; -if ((this.type & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0 && this.value != null) { - oldBase = (RuntimeBase) this.value; -} - -// Increment new value's refCount -if ((value.type & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0) { - RuntimeBase newBase = (RuntimeBase) value.value; - if (newBase.refCount >= 0) newBase.refCount++; -} - -// Do the assignment -this.type = value.type; -this.value = value.value; - -// Decrement old value's refCount AFTER assignment (Perl 5 semantics: -// DESTROY sees the new state of the variable, not the old) -if (oldBase != null && oldBase.refCount > 0 && --oldBase.refCount == 0) { - oldBase.refCount = Integer.MIN_VALUE; - DestroyDispatch.callDestroy(oldBase); -} -``` - -**DESTROY ordering**: In Perl 5, assignment completes before the old value's refcount -drops. If DESTROY accesses the variable being assigned to, it sees the new value: -```perl -our $global; -sub DESTROY { print $global } -$global = MyObj->new; -$global = "new_value"; # Perl 5: DESTROY sees "new_value", not the old object -``` -The code above ensures this by saving oldBase, performing the assignment, then -decrementing. This requires one extra local variable but is necessary for correctness. - -**Cost for the common case** (unblessed reference, or blessed without DESTROY): -1. `(type & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0` — one bitwise AND, true (we're in setLarge with a ref) -2. Cast `value` to `RuntimeBase` — zero cost (type reinterpretation) -3. `refCount >= 0` — one integer comparison, **false** (untracked = -1) → branch not taken - -Total overhead: **one integer comparison per reference assignment** for untracked objects. - -### 4.4 Only Track Classes with DESTROY - -At `bless()` time, check if the class defines DESTROY (or AUTOLOAD). If not, leave -`refCount == -1`. The `refCount >= 0` gate in `setLarge()` skips all tracking. - -Use a `BitSet` indexed by `|blessId|` to cache the result per class: - -```java -private static final BitSet destroyClasses = new BitSet(); - -static boolean classHasDestroy(int blessId, String className) { - int idx = Math.abs(blessId); - if (destroyClasses.get(idx)) return true; - // First time for this class — check hierarchy - RuntimeScalar m = InheritanceResolver.findMethodInHierarchy("DESTROY", className, null, 0); - if (m == null) m = InheritanceResolver.findMethodInHierarchy("AUTOLOAD", className, null, 0); - if (m != null) { destroyClasses.set(idx); return true; } - return false; -} -``` - -Clear the `BitSet` on `InheritanceResolver.invalidateCache()` (when `@ISA` changes or -methods are redefined). - -### 4.5 Defer Collection Cleanup - -Iterating arrays/hashes at scope exit is O(n) per collection. Instead of doing this -deterministically for all collections, defer to global destruction for blessed refs -inside collections that go out of scope. - -Deterministic DESTROY covers: -- Scalar lexicals going out of scope (`scopeExitCleanup`) -- `undef $obj` (explicit drop) -- `delete $hash{key}` (explicit removal) -- Scalar overwrite (`$obj = other_value`) - -This handles the vast majority of real-world patterns. The remaining cases (blessed refs -stranded inside a collected array/hash) get DESTROY at global destruction — the same -behavior as Perl 5 for circular references. - -**Optional future optimization**: Add a `boolean containsTrackedRef` flag to -`RuntimeArray`/`RuntimeHash`. Set on store when `refCount >= 0`. At scope exit, only -iterate if the flag is set. This makes deterministic collection cleanup cheap for the -common case (flag is false for 99%+ of collections). - -### 4.6 REFERENCE_BIT Accessibility - -`REFERENCE_BIT` is currently `private` in `RuntimeScalarType`. The refcount code in -`setLarge()` needs direct access to it (using `RuntimeScalarType.isReference()` adds -an unnecessary method call + READONLY_SCALAR unwrap check per call). Make it -package-private or add a public constant for the bitmask. - -### 4.7 DESTROY Method Caching - -Cache the resolved DESTROY method per `blessId` to avoid hierarchy traversal on every call: - -```java -private static final ConcurrentHashMap destroyMethodCache = - new ConcurrentHashMap<>(); -``` - -Invalidate alongside `destroyClasses` BitSet when inheritance changes. - -### 4.8 Global Destruction via Stash Walking - -At shutdown, the global destruction hook walks all package stashes and global -variables to find objects with `refCount >= 0` that still need DESTROY. No -persistent tracking set is needed during program execution — the `refCount` -field on `RuntimeBase` is the sole tracking mechanism. - -This avoids pinning objects in memory. Without a global set holding strong -references, overcounted objects (where `refCount` stays > 0 after all user -references are gone) are collected by the JVM's tracing GC. Their DESTROY -does not fire, but no memory leaks either. This is a deliberate trade-off: -the JVM's ability to reclaim memory for unreachable objects is preserved. - -Objects that ARE reachable at shutdown (global variables, stash entries, closures -still on the call stack) get deterministic DESTROY during global destruction. - -#### Alternative: Tracked-Objects Set - -If testing reveals that too many DESTROY calls are missed at shutdown (objects -unreachable from stashes but with overcounted `refCount`), a `trackedObjects` -set can be reintroduced as an opt-in: - -```java -private static final Set trackedObjects = - Collections.newSetFromMap(new IdentityHashMap<>()); -``` - -This set would be populated at `bless()` time and drained at DESTROY time. -At shutdown, the hook walks the set instead of stashes. The cost is that every -entry is a strong reference, pinning the object and its entire reachable graph -in memory until shutdown — reintroducing Perl 5's circular-reference leak -behavior, plus leaking non-circular overcounted objects. For short-lived -programs this is fine; for long-running servers it can accumulate significantly. - -The stash-walking approach is preferred as the default because it preserves -the JVM's memory management advantage over Perl 5. - -### 4.9 Memory Impact: Zero - -Adding `refCount` to `RuntimeBase`: - -``` -RuntimeScalar layout (current): RuntimeScalar layout (with refCount): - Object header: 12 bytes Object header: 12 bytes - RuntimeBase.blessId: 4 bytes RuntimeBase.blessId: 4 bytes - RuntimeScalar.type: 4 bytes RuntimeBase.refCount: 4 bytes ← NEW - RuntimeScalar.value: 4 bytes RuntimeScalar.type: 4 bytes - RuntimeScalar.ioOwner: 1 byte RuntimeScalar.value: 4 bytes - ───────────────────────── RuntimeScalar.ioOwner: 1 byte - Total: 25 bytes → pad to 32 ───────────────────────── - Total: 29 bytes → pad to 32 -``` - -**Memory cost: zero** — `refCount` (4 bytes) fits in existing alignment padding. -No additional fields or data structures are needed during program execution. -Global destruction uses stash walking (no persistent tracking overhead). - -### 4.10 Optimization Summary - -| Optimization | What it avoids | Cost | -|-------------|----------------|------| -| Four-state refCount | Separate `destroyCalled` field; overcounting from bless temp | One fewer field per object | -| Fast-path bypass | Any refcount work on int/double/string/undef | Zero — refs always take slow path | -| `refCount >= 0` gate | Tracking unblessed or no-DESTROY objects | One integer comparison | -| `destroyClasses` BitSet | DESTROY lookup on every bless() | One bit check per bless() | -| Defer collection cleanup | O(n) iteration at scope exit | Global destruction for collections | -| DESTROY method cache | Hierarchy traversal on every DESTROY call | One map lookup | -| Stash walking at shutdown | Persistent tracking set that pins objects in memory | One-time stash scan at exit | -| Post-assignment DESTROY | Incorrect variable state during DESTROY | One extra local variable | -| MortalList defer-decrement | Premature DESTROY on delete return values | One boolean check per statement | -| `MortalList.active` gate | flush()/deferDecrement overhead for programs without DESTROY | One boolean (trivially predicted false) | +refCount > 0 → N named-variable containers exist +refCount == Integer.MIN_VALUE → DESTROY already called +``` + +- **Fast path**: `set()` checks `(this.type | value.type) & REFERENCE_BIT`; non-references + skip `setLarge()` entirely → zero cost for int/double/string/undef. +- **Tracking gate**: `refCount >= 0` in `setLarge()` — one integer comparison, false for + 99%+ of objects (untracked = -1). +- **MortalList**: Deferred decrements (Perl 5 FREETMPS equivalent) for `delete`, `pop`, + `shift`, `splice`. `active` gate avoids cost for programs without DESTROY. +- **Scope-exit cleanup**: `SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP` bytecode opcodes for interpreter; + `emitScopeExitNullStores` for JVM backend.

Part 1: Reference Counting for Blessed Objects - -### 6.1 The refCount Field - -Add one field to `RuntimeBase`: - -```java -public abstract class RuntimeBase implements DynamicState, Iterable { - public int blessId; // existing: class identity - public int refCount = -1; // NEW: four-state lifecycle counter (-1 = untracked) -} -``` - -**Important**: `refCount` MUST be explicitly initialized to `-1`. Java defaults `int` -fields to `0`, which would mean "tracked, zero containers" — silently breaking all -unblessed objects. The `= -1` initializer is load-bearing. - -The field fits in the existing 8-byte alignment padding (see §4.9), so the per-object -memory cost is zero. - -### 6.2 Refcount Tracking Points - -#### Increment (store a tracked reference) - -| Location | Code path | -|----------|-----------| -| Scalar assignment | `RuntimeScalar.setLarge()` — new value has `refCount >= 0` | -| Hash element store | Via `RuntimeScalar.set()` on the element → `setLarge()` | -| Array element store | Via `RuntimeScalar.set()` on the element → `setLarge()` | - -Note: `local` restore does NOT increment the restored value (see §6.2 note on -`local` save/restore for explanation). - -#### Decrement (drop a tracked reference) - -| Trigger | Code path | -|---------|-----------| -| Scalar overwrite | `RuntimeScalar.setLarge()` — old value has `refCount > 0` | -| `undef $obj` | `RuntimeScalar.undefine()` | -| `delete $hash{key}` | `MortalList.deferDecrement()` — deferred to statement end (see §6.2A) | -| Scope exit (scalar lexicals) | `RuntimeScalar.scopeExitCleanup()` | -| `local` restore | `dynamicRestoreState()` — displaced current value (see §6.2 note) | -| Array `pop`/`shift`/`splice` | *(Phase 5)* `MortalList.deferDecrement()` — deferred to statement end (see §6.2A) | - -#### Note on `local` save/restore - -`dynamicSaveState()` copies `type`/`value` to a saved state and sets the current -scalar to UNDEF. `dynamicRestoreState()` puts the old value back, displacing the -current value. - -Both methods currently do raw field copies. They need refCount adjustments: -- `dynamicSaveState()`: no-op for refCount (the referent is moving from the - current scalar into the saved state — net zero container change). The saved - state is created via raw field copy (not `setLarge()`), so it is *uncounted*. - The referent's refCount remains inflated by 1 from when the original variable - was stored via `setLarge()`. This inflation is intentional — it prevents - premature DESTROY while the value is saved on the stack. -- `dynamicRestoreState()`: decrement refCount of the CURRENT value being - displaced. Do NOT increment the restored value — it already has the correct - refCount from its original counting (it was never decremented during save). - Incrementing would permanently overcount by 1, preventing DESTROY from ever - firing for `local`-ized globals. - -**Trace showing why increment-on-restore is wrong:** -``` -our $g = MyObj->new; # setLarge: refCount 0→1 -{ - local $g = MyObj2->new; - # dynamicSaveState: MyObj moves to saved state (refCount stays 1) - # $g = MyObj2: setLarge increments MyObj2 (0→1) -} -# dynamicRestoreState: -# Decrement MyObj2: 1→0 → DESTROY fires ✓ -# Restore MyObj: refCount stays 1 (NOT incremented to 2) ✓ -# $g has MyObj, refCount=1, 1 container ($g) — correct -undef $g; # refCount 1→0 → DESTROY fires ✓ -``` - -#### Note on `GlobalRuntimeScalar` and proxy classes - -Only `RuntimeScalar.dynamicSaveState/RestoreState` is discussed above, but -there are 21+ implementations of `DynamicState` across the codebase: -- `GlobalRuntimeScalar.dynamicSaveState/RestoreState` — for `local` on global scalars -- `RuntimeHashProxyEntry.dynamicSaveState/RestoreState` — for `local $hash{key}` -- `RuntimeArrayProxyEntry.dynamicSaveState/RestoreState` — for `local $array[$idx]` -- `GlobalRuntimeHash`, `GlobalRuntimeArray`, `RuntimeGlob`, etc. - -The refCount displacement-decrement logic (decrement the displaced current value, -do NOT increment the restored value) must be applied consistently to all -implementations that displace scalar values: -- `RuntimeScalar` — lexical `local` -- `GlobalRuntimeScalar` — global `local` -- `RuntimeHashProxyEntry` — `local $hash{key}` -- `RuntimeArrayProxyEntry` — `local $array[$idx]` - -Hash/array-level implementations (`RuntimeHash.dynamicSaveState`) swap entire -collections and don't need per-element tracking (Phase 5 scope). - -#### Note on `RuntimeHash.delete()` - -The current `delete()` implementation does `elements.remove(k)` and returns -`new RuntimeScalar(value)` using the copy constructor, which bypasses `setLarge()`. - -**Problem**: The hash element was counted when stored (via `setLarge()`). When -removed, the refCount should eventually be decremented. But decrementing -*immediately* in `delete()` would cause premature DESTROY for patterns like -`my $v = delete $h{k}` — DESTROY fires before the caller can capture the value. -In Perl 5, `delete` returns a mortal (DESTROY deferred to statement end). - -**Solution**: Use `MortalList.deferDecrement()` (see §6.2A) to schedule the -decrement for the end of the current statement. This gives the caller time to -store the return value. If stored, `setLarge()` increments, and the deferred -decrement produces the correct final refCount. If discarded, the deferred -decrement fires DESTROY. - -This is critical for **POE::Wheel** patterns like `delete $heap->{wheel}` where -the deleted object needs immediate DESTROY to unregister event watchers. - -#### Note on Array mutation methods (Phase 5) - -`RuntimeArray.pop()` and `shift()` remove elements and return the **raw element** -directly (NOT a copy — the actual RuntimeScalar from the internal list is -returned). `splice()` is in `Operator.java` (not `RuntimeArray.java`) and returns -removed elements in a RuntimeList. - -Like `delete()`, these methods remove a counted element from a container. The -removed element's refCount must be decremented, but not immediately — the -element is being returned to the caller who may store it. - -**Deferred to Phase 5**: A survey of all blocked modules shows no real-world -pattern that needs deterministic DESTROY from pop/shift/splice of blessed objects. -When needed, the solution is the same as for `delete()`: - -**Solution**: Use `MortalList.deferDecrement()` for each removed tracked element. - -```java -// In RuntimeArray.pop() for PLAIN_ARRAY: -RuntimeScalar result = runtimeArray.elements.removeLast(); -if (result != null) { - // Schedule deferred decrement — fires at statement end - MortalList.deferDecrementIfTracked(result); - yield result; -} -yield scalarUndef; -``` - -#### Note on the copy constructor `RuntimeScalar(RuntimeScalar)` - -The copy constructor (`new RuntimeScalar(scalar)`) copies `type` and `value` -fields without going through `setLarge()`. This means it does NOT increment -refCount. This is intentional and correct for temporaries (return values, method -arguments), matching the `refCount=0` design where temporaries are not counted. - -However, code that uses the copy constructor to create a NAMED variable (e.g., -`RuntimeScalar saved = new RuntimeScalar(current)` in `dynamicSaveState`) must -be audited. In `dynamicSaveState`, the saved copy replaces the current value -(which is set to UNDEF), so the net container count doesn't change — no -adjustment needed. But any new code that uses the copy constructor to create an -additional long-lived container must manually adjust refCount. - -### 6.2A Mortal-Like Defer-Decrement Mechanism - -Perl 5 uses "mortals" to keep values alive until the end of the current -statement (FREETMPS). Without this, `delete` would trigger DESTROY before the -caller can capture the returned value. This is critical for POE compatibility. - -**Scope**: The initial implementation covers only `RuntimeHash.delete()`. -Array mutation methods (`pop`, `shift`, `splice`) are deferred to Phase 5 — -a survey of all blocked modules (POE, DBIx::Class, Moo, Template Toolkit, -Log4perl, Data::Printer, Test::Deep, etc.) shows no real-world pattern that -needs deterministic DESTROY from a popped/shifted blessed object. The POE -pattern that motivates this mechanism is specifically `delete $heap->{wheel}`. - -PerlOnJava implements a lightweight equivalent: `MortalList`. - -#### Design - -```java -public class MortalList { - // Global gate: false until the first bless() into a class with DESTROY. - // When false, both deferDecrementIfTracked() and flush() are no-ops - // (a single branch, trivially predicted). This means zero effective cost - // for programs that never use DESTROY — which is the vast majority. - public static boolean active = false; - - // List of RuntimeBase references awaiting decrement. - // Populated by delete() when removing tracked elements. - // Drained at statement boundaries (FREETMPS equivalent). - private static final ArrayList pending = new ArrayList<>(); - - /** - * Schedule a deferred refCount decrement for a tracked referent. - * Called from delete() when removing a tracked blessed reference - * from a container. - */ - public static void deferDecrement(RuntimeBase base) { - pending.add(base); - } - - /** - * Convenience: check if a RuntimeScalar holds a tracked reference - * and schedule a deferred decrement if so. - */ - public static void deferDecrementIfTracked(RuntimeScalar scalar) { - if (!active) return; - if ((scalar.type & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0 - && scalar.value instanceof RuntimeBase base - && base.refCount > 0) { - pending.add(base); - } - } - - /** - * Process all pending decrements. Called at statement boundaries. - * Equivalent to Perl 5's FREETMPS. - */ - public static void flush() { - if (!active || pending.isEmpty()) return; - for (int i = 0; i < pending.size(); i++) { - RuntimeBase base = pending.get(i); - if (base.refCount > 0 && --base.refCount == 0) { - base.refCount = Integer.MIN_VALUE; - DestroyDispatch.callDestroy(base); - // DESTROY may add new entries to pending — the loop - // continues processing them (natural behavior of ArrayList). - } - } - pending.clear(); - } -} -``` - -#### The `active` Flag - -`MortalList.active` is set to `true` in `DestroyDispatch.classHasDestroy()` -the first time a class with DESTROY is seen. This means: -- Programs without DESTROY: `flush()` cost = one boolean check per statement -- Programs with DESTROY but no pending mortals: `flush()` cost = boolean + `isEmpty()` -- Programs with pending mortals: process the list (typically 0-1 entries) - -#### Call Sites for `flush()` — Revised (v5.4) - -**Problem with per-statement bytecode emission**: The original plan (v5.3) called for -emitting `INVOKESTATIC MortalList.flush()` at every statement boundary. Testing revealed -this causes `code_too_large.t` (a 4998-test file) to fail with `Java heap space` — the -extra 3 bytes per statement pushed the generated bytecode over heap limits. - -**Revised approach**: Instead of bytecode-emitted flushes, call `MortalList.flush()` from -**runtime methods** that are naturally called at safe boundaries: - -1. **`RuntimeCode.apply()`** — at the START, before executing the subroutine body. - This ensures deferred decrements from the caller's previous statement are processed - before the callee runs. Covers void-context function calls, `is_deeply()` assertions, etc. - -2. **`RuntimeScalar.setLarge()`** — at the END, after the assignment completes. - This ensures deferred decrements are processed when a return value or delete result - is captured. For `my $val = delete $h{k}`, the assignment increments refCount first, - then flush decrements — net effect: refCount unchanged (correct). - -**Why this is sufficient**: Every Perl statement either assigns a value (triggers setLarge), -calls a function (triggers apply), or is a bare expression with no side effects. The only -edge case is a sequence of bare expressions with no assignments or calls between them, which -is extremely rare in practice and would be handled at the next scope exit or function call. - -**Scope of flush sources**: MortalList entries come from: -- `scopeExitCleanup()` — deferred decrements for my-scalars going out of scope -- `RuntimeHash.delete()` — deferred decrements for removed tracked entries -- Future: `RuntimeArray.pop/shift/splice` (Phase 5) - -#### Why This Is Needed for POE - -POE::Wheel patterns use `delete $heap->{wheel}` to destroy a wheel and trigger -its DESTROY method, which unregisters event watchers from the kernel. Without -deferred decrement, two bad outcomes are possible: - -- **No decrement** (overcounting): DESTROY delayed to global destruction. The - event loop hangs because watchers are never unregistered. **This breaks POE.** -- **Immediate decrement** (premature DESTROY): For `my $w = delete $heap->{wheel}`, - DESTROY fires before `$w` captures the value. This violates Perl 5 semantics. - -The mortal mechanism gives the correct behavior: the decrement fires at statement -end, after the caller has (or hasn't) stored the return value. - -#### Performance Impact - -- `flush()` when `active == false`: one boolean check per statement (trivially predicted). -- `flush()` when `active == true` but empty: boolean + one `isEmpty()` call per statement. -- `pending` list: reused (clear, not reallocate). Typical size is 0-1 entries. -- No allocation in the common case (no tracked blessed refs being deleted). -- Only `RuntimeHash.delete()` populates the list initially. Array methods deferred to Phase 5. - -#### The `setLarge()` Interception - -Parallel to the existing `ioHolderCount` pattern at lines 832-839: - -```java -private RuntimeScalar setLarge(RuntimeScalar value) { - // ... existing: null guard, tied/readonly unwrap, ScalarSpecialVariable ... - - // Existing: ioHolderCount tracking for anonymous globs - if (value.type == GLOBREFERENCE && value.value instanceof RuntimeGlob newGlob - && newGlob.globName == null) { - newGlob.ioHolderCount++; - } - if (this.type == GLOBREFERENCE && this.value instanceof RuntimeGlob oldGlob - && oldGlob.globName == null) { - oldGlob.ioHolderCount--; - } - - // NEW: refCount tracking for blessed objects with DESTROY - // Save old referent BEFORE assignment (for correct DESTROY ordering — see §4.3) - RuntimeBase oldBase = null; - if ((this.type & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0 && this.value != null) { - oldBase = (RuntimeBase) this.value; - } - - // Increment new value's refCount (>= 0 means tracked; -1 means untracked) - if ((value.type & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0) { - RuntimeBase nb = (RuntimeBase) value.value; - if (nb.refCount >= 0) nb.refCount++; - } - - // Do the assignment - this.type = value.type; - this.value = value.value; - - // Decrement old value's refCount AFTER assignment - // (Perl 5 semantics: DESTROY sees new state of the variable) - if (oldBase != null && oldBase.refCount > 0 && --oldBase.refCount == 0) { - oldBase.refCount = Integer.MIN_VALUE; - DestroyDispatch.callDestroy(oldBase); - } - - return this; -} -``` - -### 6.3 Initialization at bless() Time - -```java -public static RuntimeScalar bless(RuntimeScalar runtimeScalar, RuntimeScalar className) { - if (!RuntimeScalarType.isReference(runtimeScalar)) { - throw new PerlCompilerException("Can't bless non-reference value"); - } - String str = className.toString(); - if (str.isEmpty()) str = "main"; - - RuntimeBase referent = (RuntimeBase) runtimeScalar.value; - int newBlessId = NameNormalizer.getBlessId(str); - - if (referent.refCount >= 0) { - // Re-bless: update class, keep refCount - referent.setBlessId(newBlessId); - if (!DestroyDispatch.classHasDestroy(newBlessId, str)) { - // New class has no DESTROY — stop tracking - referent.refCount = -1; - } - } else { - // First bless (or previously untracked) - referent.setBlessId(newBlessId); - if (DestroyDispatch.classHasDestroy(newBlessId, str)) { - referent.refCount = 0; // Start tracking (zero containers counted) - } - // If no DESTROY, leave refCount = -1 (untracked) - } - return runtimeScalar; -} -``` - -**Why `refCount = 0` instead of 1**: The RuntimeScalar returned by `bless()` is -typically a temporary that travels through the return chain without being explicitly -cleaned up (see §4A.2).

This is where DESTROY fires for lexical -variables at scope exit. - -The interpreter backend (`BytecodeCompiler`) has **no equivalent**. On scope -exit, it resets the register counter (`exitScope()` → `nextRegister = -savedNextRegister.pop()`). The old register values are simply overwritten by -later code. No cleanup opcodes are emitted. **DESTROY will not fire at scope -exit for `my` variables in the interpreter backend without this fix.** - -#### Implementation - -Add a new opcode `SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP` that calls `scopeExitCleanup()` on each -`my` scalar register in the exiting scope: - -```java -// In BytecodeCompiler, before exitScope(): -// Emit cleanup for each my-scalar register going out of scope -List scalarRegs = symbolTable.getMyScalarIndicesInScope(currentScopeIndex); -if (!scalarRegs.isEmpty()) { - for (int reg : scalarRegs) { - emit(Opcodes.SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP); - emitReg(reg); - } -} -exitScope(); -``` - -```java -// In BytecodeInterpreter, handle SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP: -case Opcodes.SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP -> { - int reg = opcodes[ip++]; - RuntimeScalar.scopeExitCleanup(registers[reg]); - registers[reg] = null; -} -``` - -The `symbolTable.getMyScalarIndicesInScope()` API already exists and is used by -the JVM backend's `emitScopeExitNullStores()`. - -#### Files to Modify - -- `Opcodes.java` — add `SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP` opcode constant -- `BytecodeCompiler.java` — emit cleanup opcodes before `exitScope()` -- `BytecodeInterpreter.java` — handle `SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP` opcode -- `Disassemble.java` — add disassembly text for new opcode - -### 6.6 Edge Case: Pre-bless Copies - -```perl -my $hashref = {}; -my $copy = $hashref; # copy exists BEFORE blessing -bless $hashref, 'Foo'; # refCount set to 0, but there are 2 containers -``` - -The `$copy` was stored before `blessId` was set, so `refCount >= 0` was false at that time -and no increment occurred. `refCount` undercounts by the number of pre-bless copies. - -**Impact**: DESTROY may fire while `$copy` still references the object. -**Mitigation**: Global destruction at shutdown provides a safety net. -**In practice**: The overwhelmingly common pattern is `bless {}, 'Class'` inside `new()`, -where there are no pre-bless copies. - ---- - -## 7. Part 2: Weak References - -### 7.1 Perl Semantics - -```perl -use Scalar::Util qw(weaken isweak unweaken); - -my $strong = { key => "value" }; -my $weak = $strong; -weaken($weak); # $weak is now weak -print isweak($weak); # 1 -print $weak->{key}; # "value" — still works -undef $strong; # last strong ref gone -print defined $weak; # 0 — $weak is now undef - -my $copy = $weak; # BEFORE undef: copy is STRONG, not weak -``` - -### 7.2 External Registry (No Per-Scalar Field) - -Weak ref tracking uses external maps to avoid memory overhead on every RuntimeScalar. - -**Critical design constraint**: The `referentToWeakRefs` reverse map holds -strong references to the referent as keys. This is acceptable because entries are -always removed in `clearWeakRefsTo()` (called when refCount reaches 0 or during -global destruction). For additional safety, we also clean up stale entries in -`weaken()` if a referent's refCount is already `MIN_VALUE`. - -```java -public class WeakRefRegistry { - // Forward map: is this RuntimeScalar a weak ref? - private static final Set weakScalars = - Collections.newSetFromMap(new IdentityHashMap<>()); - - // Reverse map: referent → set of weak RuntimeScalars pointing to it. - // IMPORTANT: Entries are removed by clearWeakRefsTo() which is called - // from BOTH the deterministic refcount path and the Cleaner path. - // This ensures the referent is not pinned indefinitely. - private static final IdentityHashMap> referentToWeakRefs = - new IdentityHashMap<>(); - - public static void weaken(RuntimeScalar ref) { - if (!RuntimeScalarType.isReference(ref.type)) return; - if (!(ref.value instanceof RuntimeBase base)) return; - if (weakScalars.contains(ref)) return; // already weak - - // If referent was already destroyed, immediately undef the weak ref - if (base.refCount == Integer.MIN_VALUE) { - ref.type = RuntimeScalarType.UNDEF; - ref.value = null; - return; - } - - weakScalars.add(ref); - referentToWeakRefs - .computeIfAbsent(base, k -> Collections.newSetFromMap(new IdentityHashMap<>())) - .add(ref); - - // Weak ref doesn't count as strong reference - if (base.refCount > 0) { - if (--base.refCount == 0) { - base.refCount = Integer.MIN_VALUE; - DestroyDispatch.callDestroy(base); - } - } - } - - public static boolean isweak(RuntimeScalar ref) { - return weakScalars.contains(ref); - } - - public static void unweaken(RuntimeScalar ref) { - if (!weakScalars.remove(ref)) return; - if (ref.value instanceof RuntimeBase base) { - Set weakRefs = referentToWeakRefs.get(base); - if (weakRefs != null) weakRefs.remove(ref); - if (base.refCount >= 0) base.refCount++; // restore strong count - // Note: if MIN_VALUE, object already destroyed — unweaken is a no-op - } - } -} -``` - -### 7.3 Clearing Weak Refs on DESTROY - -When `refCount` reaches 0, before calling DESTROY. This method also removes the -entry from `referentToWeakRefs` to avoid pinning the referent in the registry: - -```java -public static void clearWeakRefsTo(RuntimeBase referent) { - Set weakRefs = referentToWeakRefs.remove(referent); - if (weakRefs == null) return; - for (RuntimeScalar weak : weakRefs) { - weak.type = RuntimeScalarType.UNDEF; - weak.value = null; - weakScalars.remove(weak); - } -} -``` - -### 7.4 Copying Weak Refs - -In `setLarge()`, the destination gets a **strong** copy (refCount incremented) regardless -of the source's weakness. The weakness is a property of the SOURCE RuntimeScalar's identity -(membership in `weakScalars`), not the value. A different RuntimeScalar is not in the set. - -### 7.5 Weak Refs Without DESTROY (Unblessed Referents) - -`weaken()` is useful for unblessed references too (breaking circular refs for GC). -For unblessed objects (`refCount == -1`, untracked), `weaken()` sets the flag in the -external registry but doesn't adjust refCount. - -**Deferred to Phase 5 (optional)**. The "becomes undef when strong refs gone" -behavior for unblessed weak refs requires wrapping `ref.value` in a -`java.lang.ref.WeakReference` (`WeakReferenceWrapper`) and checking every -dereference path. This is high-risk: there are 15-20+ code paths that cast -`RuntimeScalar.value` to `RuntimeBase`, and missing any one causes ClassCastException. - -**Why this can be deferred**: All bundled module uses of `weaken()` are on -**blessed** references (Test2::API::Context, Test2::Mock, Test2::Tools::Mock, -Test2::AsyncSubtest, Tie::RefHash). For blessed refs, the external registry -approach (§7.2-7.4) handles everything — when refCount reaches 0, -`clearWeakRefsTo()` sets all weak scalars to UNDEF. No `WeakReferenceWrapper` -needed. - -For unblessed weak refs, `weaken()` registers the flag (so `isweak()` returns -true) and decrements refCount (which is -1 for untracked — no change). The -"becomes undef" behavior does not work for unblessed refs until -`WeakReferenceWrapper` is implemented. This is an acceptable limitation for -the initial implementation. - -#### Future: WeakReferenceWrapper (Phase 5) - -If unblessed weak refs are needed by a real module, implement -`WeakReferenceWrapper` with a centralized unwrap helper: - -```java -// In weaken() for untracked referents (refCount == -1): -ref.value = new WeakReferenceWrapper(ref.value); -// On dereference, if WeakReference.get() returns null → set to undef -``` - -An alternative to per-site checks: add a `WeakReferenceWrapper.unwrap()` static -helper and call it at the top of each dereference path. If unwrap detects a -cleared reference, it updates the RuntimeScalar in-place to UNDEF and returns null. - -Key dereference locations that would need checking: -1. `RuntimeScalar.hashDerefGet()` — `$weak_ref->{key}` -2. `RuntimeScalar.arrayDerefGet()` — `$weak_ref->[idx]` -3. `RuntimeScalar.scalarDeref()` — `$$weak_ref` -4. `RuntimeScalar.codeDeref()` — `$weak_ref->()` -5. `ReferenceOperators.ref()` — `ref($weak_ref)` -6. `RuntimeScalarType.blessedId()` — blessing check -7. `setLarge()` — when casting `this.value` to `RuntimeBase` -8.

This covers globals, stash entries, -and values inside global arrays and hashes. No persistent tracking set is maintained -during execution (see §4.8 for rationale). - -```java -Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread(() -> { - GlobalVariable.getGlobalVariable(GlobalContext.GLOBAL_PHASE).set("DESTRUCT"); - - // Helper to call DESTROY on a scalar if it holds a tracked blessed ref - Consumer destroyIfTracked = (val) -> { - if ((val.type & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0 - && val.value instanceof RuntimeBase base - && base.refCount >= 0) { - base.refCount = Integer.MIN_VALUE; - DestroyDispatch.callDestroy(base); - } - }; - - // Walk all package scalars - for (Map.Entry entry : GlobalVariable.getAllGlobals()) { - destroyIfTracked.accept(entry.getValue()); - } - - // Walk global arrays for blessed ref elements - for (RuntimeArray arr : GlobalVariable.getAllGlobalArrays()) { - for (RuntimeScalar elem : arr) { - destroyIfTracked.accept(elem); - } - } - - // Walk global hashes for blessed ref values - for (RuntimeHash hash : GlobalVariable.getAllGlobalHashes()) { - for (RuntimeScalar elem : hash.values()) { - destroyIfTracked.accept(elem); - } - } -})); -``` - -**What this catches**: All blessed-with-DESTROY objects reachable from package -variables, stash entries, global arrays, and global hashes. - -**What this misses**: Overcounted objects that are no longer reachable from any -global. The JVM GC collects these without calling DESTROY. This is acceptable: -the alternative (a `trackedObjects` set) pins those objects in memory until -shutdown, which is worse for long-running programs. See §4.8 for discussion. - -**Note**: `GlobalVariable.getAllGlobalArrays()` and `getAllGlobalHashes()` do not -exist yet — they need to be added as part of Phase 4 implementation. +### Optimization Phases (§16 of old doc) -**Known limitation**: Destruction order is unpredictable, matching Perl 5 behavior -where global destruction order is not guaranteed.

Implementation Phases - -### Phase 1: Infrastructure (2-4 hours) - -**Goal**: Add `refCount` field, create `DestroyDispatch` class. No behavior change. - -- Add `int refCount = -1` to `RuntimeBase` (MUST be explicitly `-1`, not default `0`) -- Create `DestroyDispatch.java` with `callDestroy()`, `doCallDestroy()`, `classHasDestroy()` -- Create `destroyClasses` BitSet and `destroyMethodCache` -- Hook `InheritanceResolver.invalidateCache()` to clear both caches - -**Files**: `RuntimeBase.java`, `DestroyDispatch.java` (NEW), `InheritanceResolver.java` -**Validation**: `make` passes. No behavior change. - -### Phase 2: Scalar Refcounting + DESTROY + Mortal Mechanism (8-12 hours) - -**Goal**: DESTROY works for the common case — single lexical, undef, hash delete, -local. Mortal mechanism provides correct semantics for `delete` which returns a -value while removing a reference (critical for POE `delete $heap->{wheel}`). +## 5.

When `%$hash = (...)` clears and +repopulates the hash (via `RuntimeHash.setFromList()` → `elements.clear()` → new +`RuntimeScalar` objects), the localized scalar is detached. Scope-exit restore writes +to the stale object; the hash has a new undef entry. + +**Perl 5 behavior**: `local $hash{key}` saves `(hash, key, old_value, existed)` and +restores by doing `$hash{$key} = $old_value`. Survives hash reassignment. + +**Fix**: `RuntimeHashProxyEntry.dynamicRestoreState()` needs to write back to the +hash container by key, not to the detached RuntimeScalar object. Currently it does +field-level restore on `this` (the proxy); it should do `hash.put(key, savedScalar)`. + +**Files**: `RuntimeHashProxyEntry.java`, possibly `RuntimeTiedHashProxyEntry.java` + +**Secondary issue**: "database connection closed" error appears in output. Likely +caused by `DBI::db::DESTROY` firing on a cloned handle during Storable::dclone's +leak-check iteration.

But many slots later use +`ISTORE` (integer type) for `callContextSlot`, `typeSlot`, `flipFlopIdSlot`, etc. +When an `ISTORE` allocation occurs inside a conditional branch, the JVM verifier +at the merge point sees: if-path = integer, else-path = reference → merged = TOP. +Any subsequent `aload` of that slot fails. + +**Also**: `TempLocalCountVisitor` severely undercounts — only handles 5 AST node +types, missing subroutine calls (4-7 slots each), assignments, regex ops, etc. + +**Interpreter fallback**: Exists at 3 levels (compilation, instantiation, top-level) +but has a timing gap — if verification is deferred to first invocation, VerifyError +wraps in RuntimeException and propagates to eval, skipping all 23 assertions. + +**Fix options** (in priority order): +1. Fix pre-initialization to use ICONST_0/ISTORE for integer-typed slots +2. Make TempLocalCountVisitor comprehensive +3.

In Perl 5, +`caller()` from `package DB` ALWAYS populates `@DB::args` regardless of debugger state. + +**Impact**: The test's `$SIG{__WARN__}` handler (running in package DB) captures +`@DB::args` via `caller()` to hold an extra reference to the TxnScopeGuard object. +Without args, no extra ref is held, no second DESTROY occurs, no warning. + +**Fix**: In `RuntimeCode.java`, populate `@DB::args` with actual frame arguments +when `caller()` is invoked from `package DB`, regardless of `debugMode`. -**Part 2a: Core refcounting** -- Hook `RuntimeScalar.setLarge()` — increment/decrement for `refCount >= 0` -- Hook `RuntimeScalar.undefine()` — decrement -- Hook `RuntimeScalar.scopeExitCleanup()` — decrement -- Hook `dynamicRestoreState()` — decrement displaced value only (do NOT increment - restored value — see §6.2 note on `local` save/restore) -- Apply displacement-decrement to: `RuntimeScalar`, `GlobalRuntimeScalar`, - `RuntimeHashProxyEntry`, `RuntimeArrayProxyEntry` -- Make `REFERENCE_BIT` accessible (package-private or public constant) -- Initialize `refCount = 0` in `ReferenceOperators.bless()` for DESTROY classes -- Handle re-bless (don't reset refCount; set to -1 if new class has no DESTROY) +### 5.6 t/debug/core.t: `open(>&STDERR)` Succeeds After `close(STDERR)` -**Part 2b: Mortal-like defer-decrement for hash delete (§6.2A)** -- Create `MortalList.java` with `active` flag, `deferDecrement()`, `deferDecrementIfTracked()`, `flush()` -- Set `MortalList.active = true` in `DestroyDispatch.classHasDestroy()` on first DESTROY class -- Hook `RuntimeHash.delete()` — call `MortalList.deferDecrementIfTracked()` on removed element -- Emit `MortalList.flush()` at statement boundaries in JVM backend (`EmitterVisitor`) -- Emit `MortalList.flush()` at statement boundaries in interpreter backend -- *(Phase 5: extend to `RuntimeArray.pop()`, `.shift()`, `Operator.splice()` when needed)* +**Symptom**: Exception text is "5" (the query result) instead of "Duplication of +STDERR for debug output failed". -**Part 2c: Interpreter scope-exit cleanup (§6.5)** -- Add `SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP` opcode to `Opcodes.java` -- Emit cleanup opcodes before `exitScope()` in `BytecodeCompiler.java` -- Handle `SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP` in `BytecodeInterpreter.java` -- Add disassembly text in `Disassemble.java` +**Root cause**: `open($fh, '>&STDERR')` succeeds even after `close(STDERR)`. +The test expects the open to fail (STDERR is closed), which would trigger a die +in `_build_debugfh`.

The object won't be DESTROY'd again. -This matches Perl 5 behavior (DESTROY is called once per object). - -### Circular References -Two objects pointing to each other: refCounts never reach 0. -- Without `weaken()`: DESTROY fires at global destruction (shutdown hook) — same as Perl 5 -- With `weaken()`: the weak link doesn't count, so the cycle breaks correctly - -### Re-bless to Different Class -```perl -bless $obj, 'Foo'; # Foo has DESTROY — refCount = 0 (at bless time) -bless $obj, 'Bar'; # Bar has no DESTROY -``` -On re-bless: if new class has no DESTROY, set `refCount = -1` (stop tracking). -If new class has DESTROY, keep refCount. - -### Tied Variables -Tied variables already have DESTROY via `tieCallIfExists("DESTROY")`. -The refCount-based DESTROY only fires for `refCount >= 0` objects. Tied variable types -don't get `refCount = 0` at bless time (they use separate tied DESTROY path). - -### DESTROY During Global Destruction -Destruction order is unpredictable.

ExifTool: 113/113 pass, 597/597 subtests pass. -- [x] Force-clear fix for unblessed weak refs (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: Birth-tracked anonymous hashes accumulate overcounted refCount - through function boundaries (e.g., Moo's constructor chain creates `{}`, - passes through `setLarge()` in each return hop, each incrementing refCount - with no corresponding decrement for the traveling container) - - **Failed approach**: Removing `this.refCount = 0` from `createReferenceWithTrackedElements()` - fixed undef-clearing but broke `isweak()` tests (7 additional failures) - - **Successful approach**: In `RuntimeScalar.undefine()`, when an unblessed object - (`blessId == 0`) has weak refs but refCount doesn't reach 0 after decrement, - force-clear anyway. Since unblessed objects have no DESTROY, only side effect - is weak refs becoming undef (which is exactly what users expect after `undef $ref`) - - **Also fixed**: Removed premature `WEAKLY_TRACKED` transition in `WeakRefRegistry.weaken()` - that was clearing weak refs when ANY strong ref exited scope while others still existed - - **Result**: accessor-weaken.t 19/19 (was 16/19), accessor-weaken-pre-5_8_3.t 19/19 - - **Files**: `RuntimeScalar.java` (~line 1898-1908), `WeakRefRegistry.java` -- [x] Skip weak ref clearing for CODE objects (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: CODE refs live in both lexicals and the stash (symbol table), but stash - assignments (`*Foo::bar = $coderef`) bypass `setLarge()`, making the stash reference - invisible to refcounting. Two premature clearing paths existed: - 1. **WEAKLY_TRACKED path**: `weaken()` transitioned untracked CODE refs to WEAKLY_TRACKED (-2). - Then `setLarge()`/`scopeExitCleanup()` cleared weak refs when any lexical reference was - overwritten — even though the CODE ref was still alive in the stash. - 2. **Mortal flush path**: Tracked CODE refs (refCount > 0) got added to `MortalList.pending` - via `deferDecrementIfTracked()`. When `flush()` ran, refCount decremented to 0 (because - the stash reference never incremented it), triggering `callDestroy()` → `clearWeakRefsTo()`. - Both paths cleared weak refs used by `Sub::Quote`/`Sub::Defer` for back-references to - deferred subs, making `quoted_from_sub()` return undef and breaking Moo's accessor inlining. - - **Fix**: Two guards in `WeakRefRegistry.java`: - 1. Skip WEAKLY_TRACKED transition for `RuntimeCode` in `weaken()` (line 88): `!(base instanceof RuntimeCode)` - 2. Skip `clearWeakRefsTo()` for `RuntimeCode` objects (line 172): `if (referent instanceof RuntimeCode) return` - Since DESTROY is not implemented, skipping the clear has no behavioral impact. - - **Result**: Moo goes from 793/841 (65/71) to **839/841 (70/71)**. 46 subtests fixed across - 6 programs (accessor-coerce, accessor-default, accessor-isa, accessor-trigger, - constructor-modify, method-generate-accessor). All now fully pass. - - **Remaining 2 failures**: `overloaded-coderefs.t` tests 6 and 8 — B::Deparse returns "DUMMY" - instead of deparsed Perl source. This is a pre-existing B::Deparse limitation (JVM bytecode - cannot be reconstructed to Perl source), unrelated to weak references. - - **Files**: `WeakRefRegistry.java` (lines 88 and 162-172) - - **Commits**: `86d5f813e` -- [x] Tie DESTROY on untie via refcounting (2026-04-09): - - **Problem**: Tie wrappers (TieScalar, TieArray, TieHash, TieHandle) held a strong Java - reference to the tied object (`self`) but never incremented refCount. When `untie` replaced - the variable's contents, the tied object was dropped by Java GC with no DESTROY call. - System Perl fires DESTROY immediately after untie when no other refs hold the object. - - **Fix**: Increment refCount in each tie wrapper constructor (TiedVariableBase, TieArray, - TieHash, TieHandle). Add `releaseTiedObject()` method to each that decrements refCount - and calls `DestroyDispatch.callDestroy()` if it reaches 0. Call `releaseTiedObject()` - from `TieOperators.untie()` after restoring the previous value. - - **Null guard**: `TiedVariableBase` constructor gets null check because proxy entries - (`RuntimeTiedHashProxyEntry`, `RuntimeTiedArrayProxyEntry`) pass null for `tiedObject`. - - **Deferred DESTROY**: When `my $obj = tie(...)` holds a ref, `$obj`'s setLarge() increments - refCount, so untie's decrement (2→1) does NOT trigger DESTROY. DESTROY fires later when - `$obj` goes out of scope. Verified to match system Perl behavior. - - **Tests**: Removed 5 `TODO` blocks from tie_scalar.t (2), tie_array.t (1), tie_hash.t (1). - Added 2 new subtests to destroy.t: immediate DESTROY on untie, deferred DESTROY with held ref. - - **Files**: `TiedVariableBase.java`, `TieArray.java`, `TieHash.java`, `TieHandle.java`, - `TieOperators.java`, `tie_scalar.t`, `tie_array.t`, `tie_hash.t`, `destroy.t` -- [x] eval BLOCK eager capture release (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: `eval BLOCK` is compiled as `sub { ... }->()` — an immediately-invoked - anonymous sub (see `OperatorParser.parseEval()`, line 88-92). This creates a RuntimeCode - closure that captures outer lexicals, incrementing their `captureCount`. The `->()` call - goes through `RuntimeCode.apply()` (the static overload with RuntimeScalar, RuntimeArray, - int parameters), NOT through `applyEval()`. While `applyEval()` calls `releaseCaptures()` - in its `finally` block, `apply()` did NOT — so `captureCount` stayed elevated until GC - eventually collected the RuntimeCode. This prevented `scopeExitCleanup()` from decrementing - `refCount` on captured variables (because `captureCount > 0` causes early return), which in - turn kept weak references alive after the strong ref was undef'd. - - **Discovery path**: Traced why `undef $ref` in Moo's accessor-weaken tests didn't clear - weak refs when used with `Test::Builder::cmp_ok()`. Narrowed to `eval { $check->($got, $expect); 1 }` - inside cmp_ok keeping `$got` alive. Verified with system Perl that `eval BLOCK` does NOT - keep captured vars alive (Perl 5's eval BLOCK runs inline, no closure capture). Confirmed - that PerlOnJava's `eval BLOCK` goes through `apply()` not `applyEval()` because the try/catch - is already baked into the generated method (`useTryCatch=true` in `EmitterMethodCreator`). - The comment at `EmitSubroutine.java` line 586-588 documents this design decision. - - **Fix**: Added `code.releaseCaptures()` in the `finally` block of `RuntimeCode.apply()` - (the static method at line 2090) when `code.isEvalBlock` is true. The `isEvalBlock` flag - is already set by `EmitSubroutine.java` line 392-402 for eval BLOCK's RuntimeCode. - - **Also in this commit**: Restored `deferDecrementIfTracked` in `releaseCaptures()` with - `scopeExited` guard (previously removed as "not needed"), and in `scopeExitCleanup()`, - captured CODE refs fall through to `deferDecrementIfTracked` while non-CODE captured vars - return early (preserving Sub::Quote semantics where closures legitimately keep values alive). - - **Result**: All Moo tests pass including accessor-weaken.t (was 16/19, now 19/19). - All 200 weaken/refcount unit tests pass (9/9 files). `make` passes with no regressions. - - **Files**: `RuntimeCode.java` (apply() finally block + releaseCaptures()), - `RuntimeScalar.java` (scopeExitCleanup CODE ref fallthrough) - - **Commits**: `8a5ab843c` -- [x] Remove pre-flush before pushMark in scope exit (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: `MortalList.flush()` before `pushMark()` in scope exit was causing - refCount inflation. The pre-flush was intended to prevent deferred decrements from - method returns being stranded below the mark, but those entries are correctly processed - by subsequent `setLarge()`/`undefine()` flushes or by the enclosing scope's exit. - - **Impact**: 13 op/for.t failures (tests 37-42, 103, 105, 130-131, 133-134, 136) and - re/speed.t -1 regression. - - **Fix**: Removed the `MortalList.flush()` call before `pushMark()` in both JVM backend - (`EmitStatement.emitScopeExitNullStores`) and interpreter backend - (`BytecodeCompiler.exitScope`). - - **Files**: `EmitStatement.java`, `BytecodeCompiler.java` - - **Commits**: `3f92c9ee2` -- [x] Track qr// RuntimeRegex objects for proper weak ref handling (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: `RuntimeRegex` objects started with `refCount = -1` (untracked) because - they are cached in `RuntimeRegex.regexCache`. When copied via `setLarge()`, the - `nb.refCount >= 0` guard prevented refCount increments. When `weaken()` was called, - the object transitioned to WEAKLY_TRACKED (-2). Then `undefine()` on ANY strong ref - unconditionally cleared all weak refs — even though other strong refs still existed. - - **Impact**: re/qr-72922.t -5 regression (tests 5, 7, 8, 12, 14 — weakened qr// refs - becoming undef after undef'ing one strong ref while others still existed). - - **Fix**: `getQuotedRegex()` now creates tracked (`refCount = 0`) RuntimeRegex copies via - a new `cloneTracked()` method. The cached instances used for `m//` and `s///` remain - untracked (`refCount = -1`) for efficiency. Fresh RuntimeRegex objects created within - `getQuotedRegex()` (for merged flags) also get `refCount = 0`. This mirrors Perl 5 - where `qr//` always creates a new SV wrapper around the shared compiled pattern. - - **Key insight**: The root issue was the same as X2 (§15) — starting refCount tracking - mid-flight on an already-shared object is wrong. The fix avoids this by creating a - fresh, tracked object at the `qr//` boundary, while leaving the cached original untouched. - - **Files**: `RuntimeRegex.java` (`cloneTracked()` method + `getQuotedRegex()` updates) - - **Commits**: `4d6a9c401` -- [x] Skip tied arrays/hashes in global destruction (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: `GlobalDestruction.runGlobalDestruction()` iterated global arrays and - hashes to find blessed elements needing DESTROY. For tied arrays, this called - `FETCHSIZE`/`FETCH` on the tie object, which could be invalid at global destruction - time (e.g., broken ties from `eval { last }` inside `TIEARRAY`). - - **Impact**: op/eval.t test 110 ("eval and last") -1 regression, op/runlevel.t test 20 - -1 regression. Both involved tied variables with broken tie objects. - - **Fix**: Skip `TIED_ARRAY` and `TIED_HASH` containers in the global destruction walk. - These containers' tie objects may not be valid during cleanup, and iterating them - would call dispatch methods (FETCHSIZE, FIRSTKEY, etc.) that fail. - - **Files**: `GlobalDestruction.java` - - **Commits**: `901801c4c` -- [x] Fix blessed glob DESTROY: instanceof order in DestroyDispatch (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: In `DestroyDispatch.doCallDestroy()`, the `instanceof` chain that - determines the `$self` reference type for DESTROY had `referent instanceof RuntimeScalar` - before `referent instanceof RuntimeGlob`. Since `RuntimeGlob extends RuntimeScalar`, - the RuntimeScalar check matched first, setting `self.type = REFERENCE` instead of - `GLOBREFERENCE`. This caused `*$self` inside DESTROY to fall through to string-based - glob lookup (looking up `"MyGlob=GLOB(0x...)"` as a symbol name) instead of proper - glob dereference. The result: `*$self->{data}` returned undef, `*$self{HASH}` returned - undef, and `*{$self}` stringified as `*MyGlob::MyGlob=GLOB(...)` instead of - `*Symbol::GEN19`. - - **Impact**: Any blessed glob object (IO::Scalar, Symbol::gensym-based objects) that - stored per-instance data via `*$self->{key}` could not access that data during DESTROY. - Also caused the "(in cleanup) Not a GLOB reference" warnings from IO::Compress/Uncompress. - - **Fix**: Swapped the `instanceof` check order: `RuntimeGlob` before `RuntimeScalar`. - Subclass checks must precede superclass checks in Java instanceof chains. - - **Verified**: `*$self->{data}`, `*$self{HASH}`, `%{*$self}`, and `*{$self}` all - resolve correctly during DESTROY, matching Perl 5 behavior. - - **Files**: `DestroyDispatch.java` (lines 135-148) - - **Commits**: `e6c653e74` -- [x] Fix m?PAT? regression: per-callsite caching for match-once (2026-04-09): - - **Root cause**: The `cloneTracked()` change in v5.15 (for qr// DESTROY refcount safety) - made `getQuotedRegex()` create a fresh RuntimeRegex on every call. For `m?PAT?`, the - `matched` flag (which tracks "already matched once" state) was reset to `false` on each - call because `cloneTracked()` deliberately does NOT copy the `matched` field (line 132: - "matched is not copied — each qr// object tracks its own m?PAT? state"). Before v5.15, - `getQuotedRegex()` returned the cached instance directly, so the `matched` flag persisted. - - **Impact**: `regex_once.t` unit test failed — `m?apple?` always matched instead of - matching only once. The test expects the second iteration to return false. - - **Fix**: Treat `m?PAT?` like `/o` — both need per-callsite caching to preserve state - across calls. Two changes: - 1. `EmitRegex.java::handleMatchRegex()`: Detect `?` modifier in flags and use the 3-arg - `getQuotedRegex(pattern, modifiers, callsiteId)` with a unique callsite ID (same path - as `/o`). - 2. `RuntimeRegex.java::getQuotedRegex(pattern, modifiers, callsiteId)`: Check for `?` - modifier in addition to `o` when deciding whether to use callsite caching. - The callsite-cached regex persists its `matched` flag between calls from the same source - location, which is exactly the semantics of `m?PAT?` (match once per `reset()` cycle). - - **Files**: `EmitRegex.java`, `RuntimeRegex.java` - - **Commits**: `5643db41a` -- [x] Fix caller() returning wrong package/line for interpreter-backed subs (2026-04-10): - - **Root cause**: `InterpreterState.getPcStack()` returned PCs in oldest-to-newest order - (ArrayList `add()` insertion order), but `getStack()` returned frames in newest-to-oldest - order (Deque iteration order). When `ExceptionFormatter.formatThrowable()` indexed both - lists with the same index, PCs were matched to the wrong interpreter frames. - - **Impact**: `caller(5)` returned wrong package/line when multiple interpreter-backed - subroutines were on the call stack simultaneously. Single interpreter frame cases were - unaffected.

Approaches Tried and Reverted (Do NOT Retry) - -This section documents approaches that were attempted and failed, with clear explanations -of **why** they failed. These are recorded to prevent re-trying the same dead ends. - -### X1. Remove birth-tracking `refCount = 0` from `createReferenceWithTrackedElements()` (REVERTED) - -**What it did**: Removed the line `this.refCount = 0` from -`RuntimeHash.createReferenceWithTrackedElements()`, so anonymous hashes would stay at -refCount=-1 (untracked) instead of being birth-tracked. - -**Why it seemed promising**: Without birth-tracking, hashes stay at refCount=-1. When -`weaken()` transitions them to WEAKLY_TRACKED, `undef $ref` → `scopeExitCleanup()` → -clears weak refs. This fixed accessor-weaken tests 4, 9, 16 (undef clearing). - -**Why it failed**: It broke `isweak()` tests (7 additional failures in accessor-weaken.t: -tests 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10, 15). Without birth-tracking, the hash is untracked, so -`weaken()` transitions to WEAKLY_TRACKED — but `isweak()` doesn't detect -WEAKLY_TRACKED as "weak" in the way Moo's tests expect. Birth-tracking is needed so -that `weaken()` can decrement a real refCount and leave the hash in a state that -correctly interacts with `isweak()`. - -**Lesson**: Birth-tracking for anonymous hashes is load-bearing for `isweak()` correctness. -Don't remove it — instead fix the clearing mechanism separately. - -### X2. Type-aware `weaken()` transition: set `refCount = 1` for data structures (REVERTED) - -**What it did**: In `WeakRefRegistry.weaken()`, when transitioning from NOT_TRACKED -(refCount=-1), set `refCount = 1` for RuntimeHash/RuntimeArray/RuntimeScalar referents -(data structures), while keeping WEAKLY_TRACKED (-2) for RuntimeCode/RuntimeGlob -(stash-stored types). - -**Why it seemed promising**: Data structures exist only in lexicals/stores tracked by -`setLarge()`, so starting at refCount=1 gives an accurate count (one strong ref = the -variable that existed before `weaken()`). Future `setLarge()` copies will increment/ -decrement correctly. CODE/Glob refs keep WEAKLY_TRACKED because stash refs are invisible. - -**Why it failed**: Starting refCount at 1 is an UNDERCOUNT for objects with multiple -pre-existing strong refs (created before tracking started). During routine `setLarge()` -operations, refCount prematurely reaches 0, triggering `callDestroy()` → -`clearWeakRefsTo()` which sets weak refs to undef mid-operation. In Sub::Defer, this -cleared a deferred sub entry, causing the next access to re-trigger undeferring → -infinite `apply()` → `apply()` → StackOverflowError. - -**Lesson**: You CANNOT start accurate refCount tracking mid-flight. Once an object exists -with multiple untracked strong refs, any starting count will be wrong. The only correct -approaches are: (a) track from birth, or (b) accept the limitation and use heuristics. - -### X3. Remove WEAKLY_TRACKED transition entirely from `weaken()` — NOT TRIED, known bad - -**Why it would fail**: Without WEAKLY_TRACKED, untracked objects (refCount=-1) stay at --1 after `weaken()`. The three clearing sites (setLarge, scopeExitCleanup, undefine) -only check for `refCount == WEAKLY_TRACKED` or `refCount > 0`. At refCount=-1, none of -them clear weak refs. The force-clear in `undefine()` only fires for -`refCountOwned && refCount > 0` objects. So weak refs to untracked hashes would NEVER -be cleared, breaking accessor-weaken tests 4, 9, 16. - -**Note**: The proposed fix (skip WEAKLY_TRACKED for RuntimeCode only) is different — it -skips WEAKLY_TRACKED only for RuntimeCode, NOT for hashes/arrays. - -### X4. Lost commits from moo.md (commits cad2f2566, 800f70faa, 84c483a24) - -The `dev/modules/moo.md` document references three commits that achieved 841/841 Moo -passing but were lost during branch rewriting. These commits are NOT on any branch or -in the reflog. The approaches documented in moo.md were: - -- **Category A (cad2f2566)**: In `weaken()`, transition to WEAKLY_TRACKED when - unblessed refCount > 0. Also removed `MortalList.flush()` from `RuntimeCode.apply()`. - This was for the quote_sub inlining problem (same as v5.9 problem). - -- **Category B (800f70faa)**: Moved birth tracking from `RuntimeHash.createReference()` - to `createReferenceWithTrackedElements()`. In `weaken()`, when refCount reaches 0 - after decrement, destroy immediately (only anonymous objects reach this state). - -- **Category C (84c483a24)**: Track pad constants in RuntimeCode. When glob's CODE slot - is overwritten, clear weak refs to old sub's pad constants (optree reaping emulation). - -These commits' exact implementations are lost. The moo.md describes them at a high level -but not with enough detail to reconstruct precisely. The current branch has different code -paths, so re-applying these approaches requires fresh implementation. - -**Key facts about these lost commits**: -- They worked together as a set — each alone may not be sufficient -- They were made BEFORE the "refcount leaks" fix (commit 41ab517ca) and the - "prevent premature weak ref clearing for untracked objects" fix (862bdc751) -- The codebase has evolved significantly since, so the same approach may produce - different results now - ---- - -## 12. WEAKLY_TRACKED Scope-Exit Analysis (v5.6) - -### 12.1 Problem Statement - -WEAKLY_TRACKED (`refCount = -2`) objects have a fundamental gap: their weak refs are -never cleared when the last strong reference goes out of scope. This breaks the Perl 5 -expectation that `weaken()` + scope exit should clear the weak ref. - -**Failing tests** (Moo accessor-weaken*.t — 6 subtests): - -| Test | Scenario | Expected | -|------|----------|----------| -| accessor-weaken.t #10 | `has two => (lazy=>1, weak_ref=>1, default=>sub{{}})` | Lazy default creates temp `{}`, weakened; no other strong ref → undef | -| accessor-weaken.t #11 | Same as #10, checking internal hash slot | `$foo2->{two}` should be undef | -| accessor-weaken.t #19 | Redefining sub frees optree constants | Weak ref to `\ 'yay'` cleared after `*mk_ref = sub {}` | -| accessor-weaken-pre-5_8_3.t #10,#11 | Same as above (pre-5.8.3 variant) | Same | -| accessor-weaken-pre-5_8_3.t #19 | Same optree reaping test | Same | - -**Root cause trace** (tests 10/11): -``` -1.

Accessor returns, $value goes out of scope - → scopeExitCleanup → deferDecrementIfTracked - → base.refCount=-2, NOT > 0 → SKIPPED! -5. Weak ref never cleared → test expects undef, gets the hash -``` - -**Why WEAKLY_TRACKED exists (Phase 39 analysis):** - -The WEAKLY_TRACKED sentinel was introduced to protect the Moo constructor pattern: -```perl -weaken($self->{constructor} = $constructor); -``` -Here `$constructor` is a code ref also installed in the symbol table (`*ClassName::new`). -If scope-exit decremented the WEAKLY_TRACKED code ref's refCount, it would be -incorrectly cleared when `$constructor` (the local variable) goes out of scope, -even though the symbol table still holds a strong reference. - -### 12.2 Key Insight: Type-Aware Tracking - -The Phase 39 problem only affects `RuntimeCode` and `RuntimeGlob` objects, which can -be stored in the symbol table (stash). These stash entries are created via glob assignment -(`*Foo::bar = $code_ref`), which does NOT go through `RuntimeScalar.setLarge()` and -therefore never increments `refCount`. This means any tracking we start at `weaken()` -time would undercount for these types. - -Anonymous data structures (`RuntimeHash`, `RuntimeArray`, `RuntimeScalar` referents) -can **never** be in the stash. For these types, `refCount = 1` at weaken() time is -a safe estimate (one strong ref = the originating variable), and future copies via -`setLarge()` will correctly increment/decrement. - -### 12.3 Attempted Fix: Type-Aware weaken() Transition - -**Approach**: Set `refCount = 1` for data structures (RuntimeHash/RuntimeArray/RuntimeScalar) -when weaken() transitions from NOT_TRACKED, while keeping WEAKLY_TRACKED for RuntimeCode -and RuntimeGlob (which may have untracked stash references). - -**Result**: **FAILED** — Caused infinite recursion (StackOverflowError) in Moo/Sub::Defer. - -**Root cause**: Starting refCount at 1 is an underestimate for objects with multiple -pre-existing strong refs. During routine setLarge() operations (variable assignment, -overwrite), the refCount would prematurely reach 0, triggering `callDestroy()` → -`clearWeakRefsTo()` which sets weak refs to undef mid-operation. In Sub::Defer, this -cleared a deferred sub entry, causing the next access to re-trigger undeferring → -infinite apply() → apply() → ... recursion. - -**Key lesson**: Any approach that starts refCount tracking mid-flight (after refs are -already created without tracking) will undercount. The only correct approaches are: -1. Track refCount from object creation for ALL objects (expensive, Perl 5 approach) -2. Use JVM WeakReference for Perl-level weak refs (allows JVM GC to detect unreachability) -3. Accept the WEAKLY_TRACKED limitation (current approach) - -**Current state**: WEAKLY_TRACKED remains for all non-DESTROY objects. The 6 accessor-weaken -subtests remain failing. The POSIX::_do_exit fix was successful (demolish-global_destruction.t -now passes). - -### 12.4 Moo Test Results After This Session - -| Metric | Before | After | Change | -|--------|--------|-------|--------| -| Test programs | 68/71 (95.8%) | 69/71 (97.2%) | +1 (demolish-global_destruction.t) | -| Subtests | 834/841 (99.2%) | 835/841 (99.3%) | +1 | - -### 12.5 Remaining Failures (Deferred) - -**Tests 10/11** (lazy + weak_ref default): Requires either full refcounting from -object creation or JVM WeakReference for Perl weak refs.

JVM WeakReference Feasibility Analysis (v5.7) - -### 14.1 Approach: Replace Strong Ref with JVM WeakReference - -The idea: when `weaken($ref)` is called, replace the strong Java reference in -`ref.value` with a `java.lang.ref.WeakReference`. Only the weakened -scalar loses its strong reference; other (non-weakened) scalars keep theirs. The -JVM GC then naturally collects the referent when no strong Java refs remain. - -```java -// In weaken(): -RuntimeBase referent = (RuntimeBase) ref.value; -ref.value = null; // remove strong ref -ref.weakJavaRef = new WeakReference<>(referent); // JVM weak ref - -// On access to a weak ref: -RuntimeBase val = ref.weakJavaRef.get(); -if (val == null) { - ref.type = RuntimeScalarType.UNDEF; // referent was GC'd - ref.weakJavaRef = null; - return null; -} -return val; -``` - -### 14.2 Why This Cannot Fix Tests 10/11 - -**JVM GC is non-deterministic.** Unlike Perl 5's synchronous refcount decrement -(refcount reaches 0 → freed immediately), JVM garbage collection runs at arbitrary -times determined by the runtime. After removing the strong ref from the weak scalar -and the temp going out of scope: - -``` - Perl 5 JVM -Step 4 (weaken): refcount 2→1 temp still holds strong Java ref -Step 5 (scope): refcount 1→0→FREE temp ref cleared, but object in heap -Step 6 (access): undef ✓ GC hasn't run yet → object still alive ✗ -``` - -Even with `System.gc()` (which is only a hint), there is no JVM guarantee that the -referent will be collected before the next line of code executes. On some JVMs, -`System.gc()` is a complete no-op (e.g., with `-XX:+DisableExplicitGC`). - -### 14.3 Approaches Evaluated - -| # | Approach | Can Fix 10/11 | Can Fix 19 | Cost | Verdict | -|---|----------|:---:|:---:|------|---------| -| 1 | **WEAKLY_TRACKED (current)** | No | No | Zero runtime cost | Current — 99.3% Moo pass rate | -| 2 | **Type-aware refCount=1** | Maybe | No | Medium | **Failed** — infinite recursion in Sub::Defer (§12.3) | -| 3 | **JVM WeakReference** | No (GC non-deterministic) | No | 102 instanceof changes in 35 files | Not viable for deterministic clearing | -| 4 | **PhantomReference + ReferenceQueue** | No (same GC timing) | No | Background thread + queue polling | Same non-determinism as #3 | -| 5 | **Full refcounting from birth** | Yes | No | Every object gets refCount tracking from allocation; every copy/drop increments/decrements | Matches Perl 5 but adds overhead to ALL objects, not just blessed | -| 6 | **JVM WeakRef + forced System.gc()** | Unreliable | No | Performance catastrophe | Not viable | -| 7 | **Reference scanning at weaken()** | Theoretically | No | Scan all live scalars/arrays/hashes | O(n) at every weaken() call — impractical | - -### 14.4 Why Full Refcounting From Birth Is the Only Correct Fix - -Tests 10/11 require **synchronous, deterministic** detection of "no more strong refs" -at the exact moment a scope variable goes out of scope. On the JVM, the only way to -achieve this is reference counting — the same mechanism Perl 5 uses. - -**What "full refcounting from birth" means:** -- Every `RuntimeHash`, `RuntimeArray`, `RuntimeScalar` (referent) gets `refCount = 0` - at creation (not just blessed objects) -- Every `setLarge()` that copies a reference increments the referent's refCount -- Every `setLarge()` that overwrites a reference decrements the old referent's refCount -- Every `scopeExitCleanup()` decrements refCount for reference-type locals -- When refCount reaches 0: clear all weak refs to this referent - -**Why this is expensive:** -- `refCount` field already exists on `RuntimeBase` (no memory overhead) -- But INCREMENT/DECREMENT on every copy/drop adds a branch + arithmetic to the - hottest path in the runtime (`setLarge()` is called for every variable assignment) -- Objects that are never weakened bear this cost for no benefit -- Estimated overhead: 5-15% on assignment-heavy workloads - -**Optimization: lazy activation** -- Keep `refCount = -1` (NOT_TRACKED) for all unblessed objects by default -- When `weaken()` is called, retroactively start tracking -- Problem: we can't know the correct starting count (§12.3 failure) -- Variant: at `weaken()` time, walk the current call stack to count refs? - Still impractical — locals may be in JVM registers, not inspectable from Java. - -### 14.5 Impact Assessment: instanceof Changes for JVM WeakReference - -Even if JVM GC non-determinism were acceptable, the implementation cost is high: - -- **102 `instanceof` checks** across **35 files** would need to handle the case where - `ref.value` is null or a `WeakReference` wrapper instead of a direct `RuntimeBase` -- Key dereference paths (`hashDeref`, `arrayDeref`, `scalarDeref`, `codeDerefNonStrict`, - `globDeref`) would each need a WeakReference check -- Every `setLarge()` call would need to handle weak source values -- Error paths would need to handle "referent was collected" gracefully - -This is a large, error-prone refactor for uncertain benefit (GC timing still -non-deterministic). - -### 14.6 Conclusion - -The 6 remaining accessor-weaken subtests (tests 10, 11, 19 in both test files) -represent a **fundamental semantic gap** between Perl 5's synchronous refcounting -and the JVM's asynchronous tracing GC: - -| Test | Perl 5 Mechanism | JVM Equivalent | Gap | -|------|------------------|----------------|-----| -| 10, 11 | Refcount drops to 0 at scope exit → immediate free | GC runs "eventually" | **Non-deterministic timing** | -| 19 | Optree freed when sub redefined → constants freed | Bytecode held by ClassLoader | **No class unloading** | - -**Recommendation**: Accept the 99.3% Moo pass rate (835/841 subtests).

Added §16 Performance Optimization Plan with root cause analysis (5 sources of overhead) - and 6-phase optimization strategy to restore ~13 Mcells/s on life_bitpacked.pl. - 2. Fixed `RuntimeRegex.reset()` not clearing `m?PAT?` match-once flags in - `optimizedRegexCache` — restores op/reset.t from 27/45 back to 30/45. - 3. Updated PR #464 description: WIP, all tests pass, performance regression noted. -- **v5.19** (2026-04-10): Fix caller() for interpreter-backed subs + rebase: - 1. Root cause: `InterpreterState.getPcStack()` returned PCs in oldest-to-newest order - (ArrayList `add()` insertion order), but `getStack()` returned frames in newest-to-oldest - order (Deque iteration order). `ExceptionFormatter.formatThrowable()` indexed both with - the same index, mismatching PCs to the wrong interpreter frames. - 2. Fix: Reversed iteration in `getPcStack()` to return PCs newest-to-oldest, matching - frame stack order. - 3. **Result**: croak-locations.t **29/29** (was 28/29), Moo **841/841** (100%). - 4. Rebased 55 commits on origin/master (`3a3bb3f8e`). - Files: `InterpreterState.java` -- **v5.12** (2026-04-09): eval BLOCK eager capture release: - 1. Root cause: eval BLOCK compiled as `sub { ... }->()` captures outer lexicals but uses - `apply()` (not `applyEval()`), which never called `releaseCaptures()`. Captures stayed - alive until GC, preventing `scopeExitCleanup()` from decrementing refCount on captured - variables. This kept weak refs alive through `eval { ... }` boundaries (e.g., - Test::Builder's `cmp_ok` using `eval { $check->($got, $expect); 1 }`). - 2. Fix: `code.releaseCaptures()` in `apply()`'s finally block when `code.isEvalBlock`. - 3. Also: restored `deferDecrementIfTracked` in `releaseCaptures()` with `scopeExited` guard; - in `scopeExitCleanup`, CODE-type captured vars fall through to decrement (releasing inner - closures' captures) while non-CODE captured vars return early (Sub::Quote safety). - 4. **Result**: accessor-weaken.t 19/19, all 200 weaken/refcount unit tests pass, make clean. -- **v5.11** (2026-04-09): Tie DESTROY on untie via refcounting: - 1. Tie wrappers now increment refCount in constructors and decrement in untie via - `releaseTiedObject()`. DESTROY fires immediately if no other refs, deferred if held. - 2. Null guard in TiedVariableBase for proxy entries passing null tiedObject. - 3. Removed 5 TODO blocks from tie tests; added 2 new deferred DESTROY subtests. -- **v5.10** (2026-04-09): Skip clearWeakRefsTo for CODE objects — fixes 46 Moo subtests: - 1. Root cause: CODE refs' stash references bypass setLarge(), making them invisible to - refcounting. Two premature clearing paths: (a) WEAKLY_TRACKED transition in weaken() - → clearing via setLarge()/scopeExitCleanup(), (b) MortalList.flush() decrementing - tracked CODE ref refCount to 0 → callDestroy() → clearWeakRefsTo(). - 2. Fix: Guard in weaken() to skip WEAKLY_TRACKED for RuntimeCode; guard in - clearWeakRefsTo() to skip RuntimeCode objects entirely. - 3. **Result**: Moo 70/71 programs, 839/841 subtests (99.8%). Remaining 2 failures in - overloaded-coderefs.t are B::Deparse limitations. -- **v5.17** (2026-04-09): Fix blessed glob DESTROY — instanceof order in DestroyDispatch: - 1. `DestroyDispatch.doCallDestroy()` checked `referent instanceof RuntimeScalar` before - `referent instanceof RuntimeGlob`. Since `RuntimeGlob extends RuntimeScalar`, blessed - globs were misclassified as REFERENCE instead of GLOBREFERENCE. This broke `*$self->{key}` - access during DESTROY (returned undef instead of stored data). - 2. Swapped the instanceof check order: RuntimeGlob before RuntimeScalar. - 3. This also fixes the "(in cleanup) Not a GLOB reference" warnings from IO::Compress/ - IO::Uncompress DESTROY handlers that were reported as cosmetic in v5.16. - Files: `DestroyDispatch.java` -- **v5.18** (2026-04-09): Fix m?PAT? regression — per-callsite caching for match-once: - 1. Root cause: `cloneTracked()` (added in v5.15 for qr// refcount safety) created a fresh - RuntimeRegex on every `getQuotedRegex()` call, resetting the `matched` flag that `m?PAT?` - uses to track "already matched once" state. Before v5.15, the cached instance was returned - directly and the flag persisted. - 2. Fix: `m?PAT?` now uses the same per-callsite caching mechanism as `/o`. Both - `EmitRegex.java` (detect `?` modifier → use 3-arg getQuotedRegex with callsite ID) and - `RuntimeRegex.java` (check `?` modifier alongside `o` for cache lookup) were updated. - 3. **Result**: `regex_once.t` passes — `m?apple?` matches on first call, returns false on second. - Files: `EmitRegex.java`, `RuntimeRegex.java` -- **v5.16** (2026-04-09): Fix ExifTool StackOverflowError in circular ref traversal: - 1. Converted `MortalList.deferDecrementRecursive()` from recursive to iterative using - `ArrayDeque` work queue + `IdentityHashMap`-based visited set. - ExifTool's self-referential hashes caused infinite recursion -> StackOverflowError. - 2. Added null guards for `ArrayDeque.add()` — sparse arrays contain null elements, - and `ArrayDeque` does not accept nulls (throws NPE). This caused DNG.t/Nikon.t - ExifTool write tests to fail. - 3. ExifTool test results: 113/113 programs pass, 597/597 subtests pass. - 4. "(in cleanup) Not a GLOB reference" warnings from IO::Compress/Uncompress DESTROY - handlers are cosmetic and don't affect test correctness. - Files: `MortalList.java` -- **v5.15** (2026-04-09): Fix Perl 5 core test regressions (op/for.t, qr-72922.t, op/eval.t, - op/runlevel.t): - 1. **Pre-flush removal**: `MortalList.flush()` before `pushMark()` in scope exit caused - refCount inflation, breaking 13 op/for.t tests and re/speed.t -1. Fix: remove the - pre-flush; entries below the mark are processed by subsequent flushes or enclosing scope. - 2. **qr// tracking**: RuntimeRegex objects were untracked (refCount=-1, shared via cache). - `weaken()` transitioned to WEAKLY_TRACKED; `undef` on any strong ref cleared all weak refs - even with other strong refs alive. Fix: `getQuotedRegex()` creates tracked copies via - `cloneTracked()` (refCount=0); cached instances remain untracked. Mirrors Perl 5 where - `qr//` creates a new SV around the shared compiled pattern. Fixes re/qr-72922.t -5. - 3. **Global destruction tied containers**: `GlobalDestruction.runGlobalDestruction()` iterated - tied arrays/hashes, calling FETCHSIZE/FETCH on potentially invalid tie objects. Fix: skip - `TIED_ARRAY`/`TIED_HASH` in the global destruction walk. Fixes op/eval.t test 110 and - op/runlevel.t test 20. - 4. **All 5 regressed tests now match master baselines**: op/for.t 141/149, re/speed.t 26/59, - re/qr-72922.t 10/14, op/eval.t 159/173, op/runlevel.t 12/24. -- **v5.12** (2026-04-09): eval BLOCK eager capture release + architecture doc update: - 1. `eval BLOCK` compiled as `sub{...}->()` kept `captureCount` elevated, preventing - `scopeExitCleanup()` from decrementing refCount on captured variables. - 2. Fix: `releaseCaptures()` in `RuntimeCode.apply()` finally block when `isEvalBlock`. - 3. Updated `dev/architecture/weaken-destroy.md` to match current codebase (12 tasks). -- **v5.9** (2026-04-09): Documented WEAKLY_TRACKED premature clearing root cause trace; - added §15 with 4 approaches tried and reverted (X1-X4). -- **v5.8** (2026-04-09): Force-clear fix for unblessed weak refs: - 1. Added force-clear in `RuntimeScalar.undefine()`: when an unblessed object - (`blessId == 0`) has weak refs registered but refCount doesn't reach 0 after - decrement, force `refCount = Integer.MIN_VALUE` and clear weak refs. Safe because - unblessed objects have no DESTROY method. - 2. Removed premature `WEAKLY_TRACKED` transition in `WeakRefRegistry.weaken()` that - was causing weak refs to be cleared when ANY strong ref exited scope while other - strong refs (e.g., Moo's CODE refs in glob slots) still held the target. - 3. **Result**: Moo accessor-weaken.t 19/19 (was 16/19), accessor-weaken-pre-5_8_3.t 19/19. - 4. Investigated and rejected alternative: removing birth-tracking `refCount = 0` from - `createReferenceWithTrackedElements()` — fixed undef-clearing but broke `isweak()`. -- **v5.7** (2026-04-08): JVM WeakReference feasibility analysis. Analyzed 7 approaches - for fixing remaining accessor-weaken subtests. Concluded JVM GC non-determinism makes - GC-based approaches unviable; only full refcounting from birth can fix tests 10/11 (§14). -- **v5.6** (2026-04-08): WEAKLY_TRACKED scope-exit analysis + POSIX::_do_exit: - 1. Analyzed why WEAKLY_TRACKED objects' weak refs are never cleared on scope exit. - Root cause: `deferDecrementIfTracked()` only handles `refCount > 0`; WEAKLY_TRACKED (-2) - is skipped. Added §12 documenting the full analysis. - 2. Designed type-aware weaken() transition: `RuntimeHash`/`RuntimeArray`/`RuntimeScalar` - referents get `refCount = 1` (start active tracking), while `RuntimeCode`/`RuntimeGlob` - keep WEAKLY_TRACKED (-2) to protect symbol-table-stored values (Phase 39 pattern). - 3. Added `POSIX::_do_exit` implementation using `Runtime.getRuntime().halt()` for - demolish-global_destruction.t support. -- **v5.5** (2026-04-08): Scope-exit flush + container ops + regression analysis: - 1. Added `MortalList.flush()` at non-subroutine scope exits (bare blocks, if/while/for, - foreach). JVM backend: `emitScopeExitNullStores(..., boolean flush)` overload. - Interpreter: `exitScope(boolean flush)` emits `MORTAL_FLUSH` opcode. - 2. Hooked `RuntimeArray.pop()`, `RuntimeArray.shift()`, `Operator.splice()` with - `MortalList.deferDecrementIfTracked()` for removed tracked elements. - 3. Discovered Bug 5 (re-bless refCount=0 should be 1), Bug 6 (global flush causes - Test2 context crashes), Bug 7 (AUTOLOAD DESTROY dispatch), Bug 8 (discarded return - value), Bug 9 (circular refs with weaken). See Progress Tracking for details. - 4. Sandbox results: 166/173 (from 178/196). Flush fixes 5 tests but causes 4 test - files to crash (Test2 context stack errors on test failure paths). -- **v5.4** (2026-04-08): Fix mortal mechanism based on implementation testing: - 1. Removed per-statement `MortalList.flush()` bytecode emission (caused OOM in - `code_too_large.t`). Moved flush to runtime methods: `RuntimeCode.apply()` and - `RuntimeScalar.setLarge()`. - 2. Changed `scopeExitCleanup()` from immediate decrement to deferred via MortalList. - Prevents premature DESTROY when return value aliases the variable being cleaned up. - 3. Added `allMyScalarSlots` tracking to `JavaClassInfo` and returnLabel cleanup. - Fixes overcounting for explicit `return` (which bypasses `emitScopeExitNullStores`). - 4. Fixed DESTROY exception handling: use `WarnDie.warn()` instead of `Warnings.warn()` - so exceptions route through `$SIG{__WARN__}`. - 5. Revised §4A.3 table: `make_obj()` pattern now deterministic with v5.4. -- **v5.3** (2026-04-08): Simplify MortalList based on blocked-module survey: - 1. Scoped initial MortalList to `RuntimeHash.delete()` only. A survey of all - blocked modules (POE, DBIx::Class, Moo, Template Toolkit, Log4perl, - Data::Printer, Test::Deep, etc.) found no real-world pattern needing - deterministic DESTROY from pop/shift/splice of blessed objects. The POE - pattern that motivates mortal is specifically `delete $heap->{wheel}`. - 2. Added `MortalList.active` boolean gate — false until first `bless()` into - a class with DESTROY. When false, `flush()` is a single branch (trivially - predicted). Zero effective cost for programs without DESTROY. - 3. Moved `RuntimeArray.pop/shift` and `Operator.splice` mortal hooks to Phase 5. - 4. Updated Phase 2b, Phase 5, test plan, risks, and file list accordingly. -- **v5.2** (2026-04-08): Review corrections based on codebase analysis: - 1. Fixed `dynamicRestoreState()` — do NOT increment restored value (was causing - permanent +1 overcounting, preventing DESTROY for `local`-ized globals). - 2. Corrected `pop()`/`shift()` — they return raw elements (not copies). Immediate - decrement would cause premature DESTROY before caller captures return value. - 3. Added **MortalList** defer-decrement mechanism (§6.2A) — equivalent to Perl 5's - FREETMPS. Critical for POE::Wheel `delete $heap->{wheel}` pattern. Deferred - decrements fire at statement end, giving caller time to store return values. - 4. Added **interpreter scope-exit cleanup** (§6.5) — the interpreter backend had no - `scopeExitCleanup()` equivalent. Without this, DESTROY would never fire for `my` - variables in the interpreter. Added `SCOPE_EXIT_CLEANUP` opcode. - 5. Added notes on `GlobalRuntimeScalar` and proxy class `dynamicRestoreState()` — - 21+ implementations of `DynamicState` need consistent displacement-decrement. - 6. Fixed splice reference — it's in `Operator.java`, not `RuntimeArray.java`. - 7. Deferred `WeakReferenceWrapper` for unblessed weak refs to Phase 5 — all bundled - module uses of `weaken()` are on blessed refs which work without the wrapper. - 8. Expanded Phase 2 into three parts (2a/2b/2c) and updated file list accordingly. -- **v5.1** (2026-04-08): Replaced `trackedObjects` set with stash-walking at shutdown. - The set pinned every tracked object in memory (preventing JVM GC from collecting - overcounted/circular objects), reintroducing Perl 5's memory leak behavior. Stash - walking at shutdown avoids this: overcounted unreachable objects are GC'd (no DESTROY, - but no memory leak either). The `trackedObjects` set is documented as an alternative - in §4.8 if testing shows too many missed DESTROY calls. -- **v5.0** (2026-04-08): Removed Cleaner/sentinel mechanism entirely. Replaced with - refcounting + global destruction at shutdown, matching Perl 5 semantics. Eliminated - `destroyTrigger`/`destroySentinel` fields from RuntimeBase (saving +8 bytes/object). - Removed Phase 4 (Cleaner), removed threading concerns, added `trackedObjects` set - for efficient global destruction. Renumbered phases: old Phase 5→4, old Phase 6→5. -- **v4.0** (2026-04-08): Review fixes — Cleaner sentinel reachability, WeakRefRegistry - pinning, missing refcount hooks, VarHandle CAS, type reconstruction in DESTROY dispatch. -- **v3.0**: Revised `refCount=0` at bless time to fix overcounting. -- **v2.0**: Initial targeted refcounting + Cleaner design. - ---- - -## 16. Performance Optimization Plan - -### 16.1 Problem Statement - -The `feature/destroy-weaken` branch shows measurable performance regressions on -compute-intensive benchmarks. The life_bitpacked benchmark shows ~27 Mcells/s (branch) -vs ~29 Mcells/s (master) — a ~7% regression. Other benchmarks show larger regressions, -particularly `benchmark_global.pl` (-27%) and `benchmark_lexical.pl` (-30%). - -The benchmarks do NOT use blessed objects, DESTROY, or weak references, so all overhead -is "tax" on unrelated code. - -### 16.2 Benchmark Baseline (2026-04-10) - -Environment: macOS, Java 21+, `make clean && make` on each branch before benchmarking. - -#### Throughput benchmarks (ops/s, higher is better) - -| Benchmark | Master | Branch | Delta | Notes | -|-----------|--------|--------|-------|-------| -| `benchmark_lexical.pl` | 397,633/s | 280,214/s | **-30%** | Pure lexical arithmetic loop | -| `benchmark_global.pl` | 96,850/s | 70,879/s | **-27%** | Global variable arithmetic loop | -| `benchmark_closure.pl` | 866/s | 810/s | **-6%** | Closure creation + invocation | -| `benchmark_eval_string.pl` | 81,966/s | 83,753/s | +2% | eval STRING compilation | -| `benchmark_method.pl` | 444/s | 387/s | **-13%** | Method dispatch loop | -| `benchmark_regex.pl` | 51,343/s | 45,078/s | **-12%** | Regex matching loop | -| `benchmark_string.pl` | 28,487/s | 25,085/s | **-12%** | String operations | -| `life_bitpacked.pl` `-r none` | ~29 Mcells/s | ~27 Mcells/s | **-7%** | Compute only (no display) | -| `life_bitpacked.pl` braille | ~15 Mcells/s | ~6 Mcells/s | **-60%** | Compute + braille display IO | - -The braille display test amplifies the regression because the display code exercises -string operations, hash lookups (braille lookup table), and `print` calls in tight loops, -all of which hit `set()`/`setLarge()` and `scopeExitCleanup` overhead repeatedly. - -#### Memory benchmarks (delta, lower is better) - -| Workload | Master | Branch | Delta | -|----------|--------|--------|-------| -| Array creation (15M elements) | 1.73 GB | 2.22 GB | **+28%** | -| Hash creation (2M entries) | 710.0 MB | 707.6 MB | 0% | -| String buffer (100M chars) | 769.8 MB | 781.3 MB | +1% | -| Nested data structures (30K objects) | 282.7 MB | 458.8 MB | **+62%** | - -**Key observations**: -- Largest regressions are in tight loops with many lexical variables (`benchmark_lexical.pl`) - and global variable access (`benchmark_global.pl`) -- The 30% lexical regression correlates directly with `scopeExitCleanup` overhead on - every `my` variable at scope exit -- The 28% array memory regression is from the extra `refCount` field on RuntimeBase - and `refCountOwned`/`captureCount`/`scopeExited` fields on RuntimeScalar -- The 62% nested data structure memory regression is from RuntimeBase `refCount` on every - array/hash/code object plus RuntimeScalar field growth - -### 16.3 Root Cause Analysis - -Bytecode disassembly (`./jperl --disassemble`) and code review identified **five** sources -of overhead, ordered by estimated impact: - -#### A. `scopeExitCleanup` called for EVERY `my` scalar at scope exit (HIGH) - -**What changed**: `EmitStatement.emitScopeExitNullStores()` now emits a call to -`RuntimeScalar.scopeExitCleanup(scalar)` for every `my $var` in the exiting scope. -Previously it only checked `ioOwner` glob references (a rare case). Now it also calls -`MortalList.deferDecrementIfTracked()` which checks `refCountOwned`, `type & REFERENCE_BIT`, -`instanceof RuntimeBase`, and `base.refCount`. - -**Impact on life_bitpacked.pl**: The inner loop (`next_generation_parallel`) declares -~15+ `my` variables per iteration (e.g. `$cell`, `$n_left`, `$n_right`, `$above`, -`$below`, `$s1`, `$c1`, `$s2`, `$c2`, `$s3`, `$c3`, ...). All are plain integers. -Each scope exit generates N×`scopeExitCleanup` calls + `pushMark`/`popAndFlush` pair. -With 100×4 word iterations × 5000 generations = 2M iterations, this adds ~30M+ useless -method calls. - -**The `scopeExitCleanup` method itself** is not trivially cheap either — it checks -`captureCount`, `ioOwner`, `type == GLOBREFERENCE`, then calls `deferDecrementIfTracked` -which has 4 conditional checks before the early return. The JIT may inline some of this -but the method dispatch + branch misprediction cost adds up at 30M+ calls. - -#### B. `pushMark`/`popAndFlush` pairs on every block scope (MEDIUM-HIGH) - -**What changed**: Every `for`, `if`, bare block now wraps scope-exit cleanup with -`MortalList.pushMark()` before and `MortalList.popAndFlush()` after. These are -`static synchronized` calls that manipulate an ArrayList. - -**Impact**: In nested loops, the inner loop's block exit triggers pushMark+popAndFlush -on every iteration. These are cheap individually (just `ArrayList.add`/`removeLast`) but -at millions of iterations the overhead accumulates — especially because `popAndFlush` -checks `!active || marks.isEmpty()` and `pending.size() <= mark` on every call. - -#### C. `set()` fast path now routes references through `setLarge()` (MEDIUM) - -**What changed**: The fast path in `RuntimeScalar.set(RuntimeScalar)` added: -```java -if (((this.type | value.type) & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0) { - return setLarge(value); -} -``` -This check runs on EVERY `set()` call, even for integer-to-integer assignments. The -branch itself is trivially predicted for non-reference types, but `setLarge()` is now -significantly larger (refCount tracking, WeakRefRegistry, MortalList.flush) which may -prevent the JIT from inlining `set()` due to the increased bytecode size of the callee. - -**Impact**: `set()` is the single most-called method in PerlOnJava. If the JIT decides -not to inline it (because `setLarge` pulls in too many classes), every variable assignment -becomes a real method call instead of inlined field stores. - -#### D. Extra fields on RuntimeScalar increase object size (LOW-MEDIUM) - -**What changed**: Three new boolean/int fields added to RuntimeScalar: -- `captureCount` (int, 4 bytes) -- `scopeExited` (boolean, 1 byte + padding) -- `refCountOwned` (boolean, 1 byte + padding) - -Plus `refCount` (int, 4 bytes) on RuntimeBase. - -**Impact**: With JVM object alignment (8-byte boundaries), RuntimeScalar grew by ~16 bytes. -This increases GC pressure and reduces cache density. Life_bitpacked creates millions of -temporary RuntimeScalar objects for arithmetic results. - -#### E. `MortalList.flush()` called on every `setLarge()` (LOW) - -**What changed**: `setLarge()` now ends with `MortalList.flush()`. Cost when -`MortalList.active == true` and `pending.isEmpty()`: one boolean check + one -`ArrayList.isEmpty()` call. This was previously not present. - -**Impact**: Low individually, but `setLarge()` is called for every reference assignment. - -### 16.4 Optimization Strategy - -#### Guiding principle -**Zero overhead for code that doesn't use DESTROY/weaken.** The refcounting mechanism -should be invisible to programs that don't bless objects into classes with DESTROY methods. - -#### Phase O1: Compile-time scope-exit elision (HIGH impact, LOW risk) - -**Goal**: Skip `scopeExitCleanup` calls for variables that provably never hold references. - -**Approach**: At compile time, track whether each `my` variable could hold a reference: -- Variables assigned only from arithmetic/string operations → **never a reference** -- Variables assigned from `@_` slicing, sub calls, hash/array access → **might be a reference** -- Variables explicitly assigned a reference (`\@foo`, `[...]`, `{...}`) → **is a reference** - -In `emitScopeExitNullStores()`, only emit `scopeExitCleanup` calls for variables that -**might** hold a reference. For integer-only inner loop variables, skip entirely. - -**Conservative fallback**: If the analysis can't prove a variable is reference-free, -emit the cleanup call (safe default). This is a sound optimization — it can't break -anything, it just reduces calls. - -**Implementation sketch**: -1. Add a `boolean mightHoldReference` flag to symbol table entries -2. Default to `true` (conservative) -3. Set to `false` for variables with only integer/double/string assignments -4. In `emitScopeExitNullStores()`, check the flag before emitting cleanup call - -**Estimated impact**: For life_bitpacked.pl, this eliminates ~90% of scopeExitCleanup -calls since most inner-loop variables are pure integers. - -**Files**: `ScopedSymbolTable.java`, `EmitStatement.java` - -#### Phase O2: Elide `pushMark`/`popAndFlush` for scopes with no cleanup (HIGH impact, LOW risk) - -**Goal**: Skip MortalList mark/flush for blocks that have no `scopeExitCleanup` calls. - -**Approach**: After Phase O1 filtering, if a scope has zero variables needing cleanup, -skip the `pushMark()`/`popAndFlush()` pair entirely. This is a trivial extension of O1 — -just check if the filtered list is empty before emitting the mark/flush calls. - -**Implementation**: In `emitScopeExitNullStores(ctx, scopeIndex, flush)`: -```java -List needsCleanup = scalarIndices.stream() - .filter(idx -> ctx.symbolTable.mightHoldReference(idx)) - .toList(); -if (needsCleanup.isEmpty() && hashIndices.isEmpty() && arrayIndices.isEmpty()) { - // No cleanup needed — skip pushMark/popAndFlush entirely - // Still null the slots for GC -} else { - // Emit pushMark, cleanup calls, popAndFlush as before -} -``` - -**Estimated impact**: Eliminates 2 static calls per inner loop iteration in -life_bitpacked.pl. - -**Files**: `EmitStatement.java` - -#### Phase O3: Runtime fast-path in `scopeExitCleanup` (MEDIUM impact, LOW risk) - -**Goal**: Make `scopeExitCleanup` cheaper for the common case (non-reference scalars). - -**Approach**: Add an early-exit check at the top of `scopeExitCleanup`: -```java -public static void scopeExitCleanup(RuntimeScalar scalar) { - if (scalar == null || scalar.type < RuntimeScalarType.TIED_SCALAR) return; - // ... existing logic ... -} -``` - -For plain integers/strings/doubles (type 0-8), this is a single field read + comparison. -The JIT will inline this to a trivially-predicted branch. This helps even if Phase O1 -doesn't eliminate the call entirely (e.g., variables whose type can't be statically -determined). - -**Estimated impact**: Reduces per-call cost from ~100ns to ~2ns for non-reference scalars. - -**Files**: `RuntimeScalar.java` - -#### Phase O4: Prevent `setLarge` bloat from killing `set()` inlining (HIGH impact, MEDIUM risk) - -**Goal**: Keep the `set()` method small enough for JIT inlining. - -**Why HIGH impact**: The -60% braille display regression (vs -7% compute-only) proves that -the string/hash/reference path through `setLarge()` is the dominant bottleneck, not just -`scopeExitCleanup`. The display code does many string assignments and hash lookups — each -goes through `set()` → `setLarge()`, which now includes refCount tracking, WeakRefRegistry -checks, and `MortalList.flush()`. If `setLarge()` bloat prevents the JIT from inlining -`set()`, every variable assignment in IO-heavy code becomes a real method call. - -**Approach**: The JIT's inlining budget is based on bytecode size. `setLarge()` grew -substantially with refCount/WeakRef/MortalList logic. Options: - -a. **Extract refCount logic into a separate method** called from `setLarge()`: - ```java - private RuntimeScalar setLarge(RuntimeScalar value) { - // ... unwrap tied/readonly ... - // ... IO lifecycle ... - if (((this.type | value.type) & REFERENCE_BIT) != 0) { - return setLargeRefCounted(value); - } - this.type = value.type; - this.value = value.value; - return this; - } - ``` - This keeps `setLarge()` small enough that the JIT may still inline `set()` → `setLarge()` - for the non-reference path. - -b. **Move the REFERENCE_BIT check back into `set()`** but with a lighter `setLarge`: - The fast path already checks `REFERENCE_BIT` before calling `setLarge`. Inside `setLarge`, - skip the refCount block entirely when neither old nor new is a reference. - -**Estimated impact**: May restore JIT inlining of `set()`, which would reduce -every variable assignment from a method call to inline field stores. - -**Files**: `RuntimeScalar.java` - -#### Phase O5: `MortalList.active` gate (already partially done) (LOW impact, LOW risk) - -**Goal**: Make `MortalList.flush()`, `pushMark()`, `popAndFlush()` truly zero-cost when -no DESTROY class has been registered. - -**Current state**: `active` is `true` always (set in the field initializer). It was -originally gated on first `bless()` into a class with DESTROY, but was changed to -always-on because birth-tracked objects need balanced increment/decrement. - -**Approach**: Re-examine whether `active` can start `false` and flip to `true` only -when the first `bless()` with DESTROY occurs OR when the first `weaken()` is called. -Birth-tracked objects' refCount is only meaningful when there's a class with DESTROY -or when weak refs are in play — otherwise refCount is never checked. - -**Risk**: Requires careful analysis of whether any code path depends on -`MortalList.flush()` running before the first DESTROY-aware bless. - -**Files**: `MortalList.java`, `InheritanceResolver.java` (classHasDestroy), `ScalarUtil.java` - -#### Phase O6: Reduce RuntimeScalar object size (LOW impact, HIGH effort) - -**Goal**: Reclaim the ~16 bytes added per RuntimeScalar. - -**Approach**: Pack `refCountOwned`, `scopeExited`, and `ioOwner` into a single `byte flags` -field using bit masks. `captureCount` could be moved to a side table (WeakHashMap) since -it's only non-zero for closure-captured variables. - -**Estimated impact**: Marginal — modern JVMs handle small objects well, and GC pressure -from field size is secondary to allocation rate. - -**Files**: `RuntimeScalar.java` - -### 16.5 Implementation Order - -| Phase | Impact | Risk | Effort | Depends on | -|-------|--------|------|--------|------------| -| O4 | HIGH | MED | 1 hr | — | -| O3 | MEDIUM | LOW | 15 min | — | -| O1 | HIGH | LOW | 1-2 hrs | — | -| O2 | HIGH | LOW | 30 min | O1 | -| O5 | LOW | MED | 1 hr | — | -| O6 | LOW | HIGH | 2+ hrs | — | - -**Recommended order**: O4 → O3 → O1 → O2 → O5 → (O6 only if needed) - -**Key insight from benchmarking**: The -60% braille display regression (vs -7% compute-only) -proves that `setLarge()` bloat is the dominant bottleneck, not `scopeExitCleanup`. O4 should -be done first because it addresses the IO/string/hash path that shows the largest regression. -O3 is quickest to implement and helps the compute path. O1+O2 together eliminate remaining -scope-exit overhead for integer-only loops. - -### 16.6 Testing & Revert Policy - -#### Git workflow - -Work on a **separate branch** forked from `feature/destroy-weaken`.

Three call sites (`detectClosureVariables`, `visitNamedSubroutine`, `visitAnonymousSubroutine`) respect `VariableCollectorVisitor.hasEvalString()`. | **Fixed `basic rerefrozen` leak** + test 49 "Self-referential RS conditions" (TODO→pass). | +| **Phase G** | `e8cec9a76` | `Storable.releaseApplyArgs(RuntimeArray)` helper. Called after each of 5 `RuntimeCode.apply(method, args, ...)` sites in `Storable.java` (dclone freeze/thaw, freeze, thaw, YAML thaw). | **Fixed `basic result_source_handle` leak → 52leaks.t unpatched 10/10 standalone.** | +| **Phase H (H2)** | `2e5b853be` | `ReachabilityWalker.sweepWeakRefs`: in QUIET auto-sweep, skip clearing weak refs to unblessed non-CODE containers (ARRAY/HASH). | **Fixed `t/60core.t` hang at test 108 (multicreate via Sub::Defer accessors).** Root cause: Sub::Defer's `$deferred_info` ARRAY is reachable only through closure captures (`walkCodeCaptures=false`); clearing its weak ref in `%DEFERRED` wipes the dispatch table and `goto &$undeferred` loops forever. | +| **Phase H (H3)** | `6501ddb94` | `WeakRefRegistry.clearAllBlessedWeakRefs`: skip unblessed referents (blessId==0). | **Fixed `t/cdbi/sweet/08pager.t` hang in END block.** Same root cause — pre-END cleanup used to wipe Sub::Defer bookkeeping, then DBIC's `assert_empty_weakregistry` END block looped in stringify dispatch. | +| **Phase H (H4)** | `58427ab16` | `RuntimeScalar.undefine`: extend `undefOnBlessedWithDestroy` trigger to also fire when `--refCount` reaches 0 and DESTROY runs (self-rescue path). | **Fixed `t/storage/error.t` test 49 "callback works after $schema is gone".** When user `undef $schema` triggers DESTROY → self-save → rescued, the post-DESTROY walker sweep now drains rescuedObjects and clears weak refs in the HandleError closure so the subsequent DBI error falls through to the "unhandled by DBIC" path. Adds `JPERL_PHASE_D_DBG=1` diagnostic. | +| **Phase H (H1)** | `a32e78953` | `ReachabilityWalker.sweepWeakRefs`: drain `rescuedObjects` in BOTH quiet and non-quiet modes (previously only non-quiet). | **Reduced `t/52leaks.t` failures 11→2.** Rescued objects (blessed-with-DESTROY self-savers) now release their weak-ref pins during auto-sweep, so DBIC's leak tracer sees Schema/Source/Row as collected. Independent of H2 because rescued objects are always blessed. | +| **Phase I** | `1f02e0fc0`, `b627a7036` | Two-phase walker in `ReachabilityWalker.walk()` (phase 1 globalCodeRefs+captures, phase 2 roots-without-captures). Also in `sweepWeakRefs` / `clearAllBlessedWeakRefs`: skip clearing weak refs to scalars that hold CODE refs OR are UNDEF (Sub::Quote/Sub::Defer `$unquoted` / `$undeferred` slots). H3 skip-unblessed rule preserved for pre-END HASH/ARRAY. | **Fixed the ARRAY leak (`basic random_results`).** Diagnostic dump of cleared weak-ref referents identified Sub::Quote's `$unquoted` slot pattern: `weaken($quoted_info->{unquoted} = \$unquoted)` weakens a scalar-ref to a lexical slot that is later filled with a compiled sub via `$$_UNQUOTED = sub { ... }`. Clearing weak refs to that slot scalar broke Sub::Quote re-dispatch with "Not a CODE reference". t/52leaks.t: 2 fails → **1 fail** (only DBICTest::Artist remaining, DBIC-internal `related_resultsets` cache issue). All other tests preserved. | + +--- + +## 4. What we tried and REJECTED (do not repeat) + +These approaches were implemented, tested, and **reverted** because they +broke other tests. Documented here so future attempts don't retry the same +dead ends. + +### 4.1 Walker-filter approaches (all breaks DBIC Schema back-ref chains) + +1. **Walker skip `!sc.refCountOwned`** (shipped briefly as `09b438101`, + reverted as `55b34eacd`). Skipped orphaned registry entries as walker + seeds. Closed some minimal-repro leaks. **Broke `t/60core.t`**: the + filter classifies some legitimate live-lexical scalars as orphaned, + causing walker to consider DBIC Schema back-refs unreachable and + prematurely clearing them → "detached result source" errors. + +2. **Walker skip `sc.scopeExited`**. Skip scalars whose Perl-level scope + has exited but `captureCount > 0` (over-captured via closures). Same + DBIC back-ref breakage as (1). + +3. **`isContainerElement` flag + walker skip**. Added a boolean to + `RuntimeScalar`; set by `incrementRefCountForContainerStore`; walker + skipped as root. Breaks DBIC heavily — some hash/array elements point + at blessed objects whose back-refs need walker visibility for weak-ref + preservation. **Kept the field** (cheap, may help future diagnostics), + but filter is disabled. + +### 4.2 Proactive unregister approaches + +4. **`MortalList.addDeferredCapture` recursive element unregister**. When + a scalar joins `deferredCaptures`, recursively unregister element + scalars inside its value. **Breaks `t/60core.t` column_info tests**: + BFS descends too eagerly into containers still needing walker + visibility. + +5. **`MortalList.scopeExitCleanupHash` per-element unregister**. Call + `ScalarRefRegistry.unregister(s)` when flipping `rcO=false` during + container scope-exit. Didn't fire for the target leak because + `$base_collection`'s refCount never dropped to 0 while in + `deferredCaptures`. No-op net effect. + +### 4.3 Auto-sweep tuning + +6. **Lower throttle (500ms / 100ms)**. Auto-sweep ran too frequently on + 52leaks-scale tests, causing minute-scale slowdowns from repeated + `System.gc()` + walker traversals. Reverted to **5 s throttle**. + +7. **Auto-sweep `flushDeferredCaptures` at statement boundaries**. Decrement + refCounts for deferred-capture scalars during normal run. Dangerous — + those scalars might still be actively used by closures mid-statement. + Not attempted; documented as architecturally incorrect. + +### 4.4 Key decisions locked in + +- **Auto-sweep throttle: 5 seconds.** Any shorter kills DBIC-scale tests. +- **Quiet mode (auto-sweep) does NOT fire DESTROY or drain `rescuedObjects`.** + Only explicit `Internals::jperl_gc()` does both.

If it did, H2's skip + rule could be scoped to only capture-reachable objects. Doing + that correctly requires tracking provenance during BFS — a + larger refactor. +- **Test 10**: An explicit auto-sweep at significant scope exits + (e.g., when a HASH with >N entries is dropped) would clear + stragglers. But the heuristic is fragile and overhead-sensitive. + Alternatively, reduce auto-sweep throttle from 5 s to 500 ms + with a CPU budget (skip if recent GC cost exceeds X%) — but + prior attempts at short throttles were reverted for DBIC + slowdown. + +### Implementation order (if re-attempted post-Phase-J) + +1.

Today PerlOnJava's **cooperative +refcount** approximates them, but it diverges in enough places that several +real-world tests fail (DBIC t/52leaks tests 12–18, txn_scope_guard test 18, +etc.), and further real-world modules fail silently. This limits PerlOnJava's +usefulness as a drop-in Perl interpreter. + +This document lays out a phased plan to close the gap so that: + +1. All `t/op/*destroy*`, `t/op/*weaken*`, and equivalent Perl-core semantics + tests pass on both backends. +2. DBIC's full leak-detection suite passes without modifications. +3. Devel::StackTrace-style `@DB::args` resurrection of destroyed objects + behaves identically to Perl 5. +4. CPAN modules that assume accurate `REFCNT` readings get accurate readings. + +## 2. Why the Current Scheme Falls Short + +PerlOnJava uses **cooperative reference counting** layered on top of JVM GC: + +- `RuntimeBase.refCount` is an `int` with state machine values: + `-1` (untracked), `0` (tracked, no counted refs), `>0` (N counted refs), + `-2` (WEAKLY_TRACKED), `Integer.MIN_VALUE` (DESTROY called). +- Increments happen at specific "hotspots" (`setLargeRefCounted`, + `incrementRefCountForContainerStore`, etc.) when a reference is stored into + a tracked container. +- Decrements happen at overwrite sites and at scope-exit cleanup for + named variables (`scopeExitCleanupHash/Array/Scalar`). + +### 2.1 Where accuracy is lost + +| Pattern | Problem | Symptom | +|---|---|---| +| `my $self = shift` inside DESTROY | Assignment increments `refCount`; lexical destruction doesn't fire a matching decrement | DESTROY resurrection false-positives; infinite DESTROY loops | +| Function arg copies (`new RuntimeScalar(scalar)` via copy ctor) | Copies don't own a count; stores into containers must call `incrementRefCountForContainerStore` manually — sites get missed | refCount inflation in `visit_refs`, accessor chains | +| `map`/`grep`/`keys`/`values` temporaries | Temporaries hold references without counted ownership | Objects can't reach refCount 0 | +| Overloaded operators returning `$self` | Common DBIC pattern; each return copies via JVM stack | +1 per call site; compounds over accessor chains | +| `bless` + `DESTROY` + `warn` in DESTROY body | `$SIG{__WARN__}` + `caller()` populates `@DB::args` via `setFromList` which increments but scope-exit doesn't decrement | test 18 can't detect real resurrection | +| Anonymous hash/array elements (`{ foo => $obj }`) | Created via `createReferenceWithTrackedElements`; parent hash gets `localBindingExists=true` but no owning scalar | `scopeExitCleanupHash` never fires; weak refs on children never cleared | +| JSON/XML/Storable deserialization output | New anon containers born at refCount=0; outer consumer may or may not own | Storable-specific fix applied; JSON/XML uncovered | + +### 2.2 Root architectural limitations + +1. **No scope-exit hook for RuntimeScalar copies.** When `my $x = <ref>` assigns + a ref, `setLargeRefCounted` increments. When the enclosing scope ends, + JVM GC eventually collects the local `RuntimeScalar` slot, but no + Perl-visible decrement fires. `scopeExitCleanup(RuntimeScalar)` exists but + only runs for variables the compiler knows about — function arguments + copied into args arrays, AST temporaries, closure captures, etc. bypass + it. + +2. **No reachability view.** Perl's mark-and-sweep-when-needed model means a + refCount-based leak detector (`B::svref_2object->REFCNT`) can be trusted. + In PerlOnJava, refCount is "approximate" and drifts upward over the life + of a script. + +3. **DESTROY uses `MIN_VALUE` sentinel.** Once `DESTROY` fires, refCount is + irrecoverable. A strong ref that escapes DESTROY cannot transition the + object back to a live state for a second DESTROY call, because increment + paths (`nb.refCount >= 0`) refuse to touch a negative refCount. + +4. **`@DB::args` is populated via `setFromList` which increments**, matching + the copy-into-Perl-hash semantics. But Perl's `@DB::args` uses "fake" + reference semantics — entries are aliases that don't count. This causes + double-counting in frames that hold many references. + +## 3. Design Goal + +Make PerlOnJava's refcount / DESTROY / weaken behave *bit-for-bit* like +Perl 5 from the Perl programmer's perspective, without abandoning the JVM's +GC for memory reclamation. + +Specifically: +- `B::svref_2object($x)->REFCNT` returns Perl's expected value for every + common reference pattern. +- `DESTROY` fires at the right time, the right number of times, with the + right `$self` identity semantics. +- `weaken` / `isweak` behave as in Perl 5, including clearing to `undef` + the *moment* the referent is collected. + +## 4. Strategy Overview + +Keep cooperative refcounting as the *primary* mechanism, but add: + +- **Scope-exit decrement completeness** — ensure every path that increments + has a matching path that decrements when the holder goes out of scope. +- **Accurate function-call frame accounting** — `@_` entries are aliases; + argument passing into subs does not inflate refcount. +- **Proper DESTROY state machine** — separate "actively destroying" from + "fully dead" so that resurrection can transition back to live. +- **On-demand reachability fallback** — a mark-and-sweep walk from + symbol-table + live-lexical roots, triggered by (a) `B::svref_2object` + queries and (b) periodic (or cheap triggered) sweeps at scope exit. + +The reachability fallback is the insurance policy: even when refCount +accounting drifts upward, weak refs still get cleared when the referent is +actually unreachable from Perl code. This is what Perl 5 does under the hood +(via refcounting, not mark-and-sweep, but with accurate counts it amounts to +the same user-visible behavior). + +## 5. Phased Plan + +Each phase is independently shippable and adds or refines a piece of the +story. Phases can overlap if multiple developers work in parallel, but the +tests for each phase should pass before moving on. + +### Phase 0 — Diagnostic infrastructure (1–2 weeks) + +Goal: be able to measure the gap. + +- Add `JPERL_REFCOUNT_TRACE=<class>` env var: log every refCount transition + for objects of the given class, with a short stack trace. Output to + `/tmp/jperl_refcount_<pid>.log`. +- Add `JPERL_DESTROY_DEBUG` (already partially exists): log every + `callDestroy` / `doCallDestroy` entry/exit with refCount and flags. +- Add `dev/tools/refcount_diff.pl`: runs a Perl script under both `perl` and + `jperl`, captures `B::svref_2object->REFCNT` snapshots at user-marked + checkpoints, and prints the diff. Relies on a new jperl built-in + `jperl_refcount_snapshot(\@objects)` that dumps refCount, blessId, + localBindingExists, currentlyDestroying for each. +- Port an extensive "destroy behavior" test corpus from Perl's `t/op/` + tests (at least `destroy.t`, `weaken.t`, `Devel/Peek/*`, plus DBIC's + `t/lib/DBICTest/Util/LeakTracer.pm`-based sub-tests) into a new + `perl5_t/t/destroy-semantics/` directory and wire into + `dev/tools/perl_test_runner.pl`. +- Define a **baseline report**: number of refcount/destroy-semantics tests + passing / failing on master today. Track this report in every PR. + +**Exit criteria:** Running `dev/tools/refcount_diff.pl t/anon_refcount2.pl` shows +a textual diff of where jperl and perl diverge for every reference in the +script. Baseline report committed. + +### Phase 1 — Complete scope-exit decrement for scalar lexicals (3–4 weeks) + +Goal: every `my $x = <ref>` increment has a matching scope-exit decrement. + +- Audit every bytecode emitter path for scalar lexical scope exit in the + compiler: `ScopeManager`, `EmitBlock`, `EmitSubroutine`, `EmitForeach`, + `EmitReturn`, etc. Ensure each emits `RuntimeScalar.scopeExitCleanup($x)` + before the slot goes out of scope. +- Audit closures (`capturedScalars`): when a closure's own `RuntimeCode` + dies, every captured scalar's `captureCount` must be decremented *and* + the captured scalar's decrement must happen if its scope already exited + (the existing `scopeExited` flag handles this; verify all branches + actually fire). +- Audit `@_` lifecycle: at sub entry, args are pushed; at sub exit, each + arg's scope must end and its refCountOwned=true must trigger a decrement. + Today `RuntimeCode.apply` handles this approximately; verify there are no + skipped paths (`return` keyword, `die`, `goto &sub`, tail call, etc.). +- Audit `map` / `grep` / `sort` block bodies — these create implicit + lexicals ($_, $a, $b) and temporary result slots. Each allocation must + pair with a cleanup. +- Fix diagnosed gaps in order: (a) simple block-exit scalars first, + (b) sub-return path, (c) closures, (d) `map/grep`, (e) `eval` cleanup. +- For each fix, add a regression test that `dev/tools/refcount_diff.pl` + shows zero divergence vs `perl` for the pattern. + +**Exit criteria:** `my $x = \@arr; { my $y = $x }` results in the exact +same refCount snapshot as Perl at every checkpoint. File::Temp's +`DESTROY` leaves refCount=0 (not 1) when called with no external references. + +### Phase 2 — Function argument pass-through without inflation (2–3 weeks) + +Goal: calling a sub with a reference argument does not change the +argument's net refCount once the sub returns. + +- Change `@_` semantics: `@_` entries are **aliases** to the caller's args, + not independent counted references. Implement an `ALIASED_ARRAY` mode on + `RuntimeArray` where pushing into it does not increment, and popping/ + shifting doesn't decrement the aliased target. `@_` is set to this mode + by `RuntimeCode.apply`. +- `shift @_` into a local: the local is a new counted reference. The + aliased entry goes away; no deferred decrement because there was no + increment on push. +- `@DB::args` populated from `caller()`: use the same ALIASED_ARRAY mode so + that capturing args doesn't inflate refs. When user code does + `push @kept, @DB::args`, *that* push into `@kept` does increment — creating + the real strong refs Perl expects. +- `goto &sub`: replace @_ in place without inflating. +- Audit XS-equivalent entry points (`SystemOperator`, DBI, etc.): when these + call back into Perl, they should set up `@_` as ALIASED_ARRAY too. + +**Exit criteria:** `f($obj)` where `sub f { 1 }` leaves `$obj`'s refCount +unchanged across the call. `Devel::StackTrace`-style `@DB::args` capture +into a *global* array does increment refCount (because the push into the +global is a real store). Same behavior as Perl. + +### Phase 3 — Proper DESTROY state machine (2–3 weeks) + +Goal: support DESTROY resurrection with correct ordering. + +- Replace `MIN_VALUE` sentinel with a proper state enum on `RuntimeBase`: + `LIVE` (refCount>=0), `DESTROYING` (inside DESTROY body), + `RESURRECTED` (DESTROY ran, new ref appeared during/after), + `DEAD` (cleanup done, weak refs cleared). +- In `doCallDestroy`: + - Transition state `LIVE` → `DESTROYING` at entry. + - Reset refCount from whatever the caller set to 0 (live accounting during DESTROY). + - Run Perl DESTROY body. + - After body: flush pending decrements. Check refCount: + - `== 0` → transition to `DEAD`, clear weak refs, cascade children. + - `> 0` → transition to `RESURRECTED`; defer cleanup until next + refCount==0 event. +- On `RESURRECTED` → next refCount==0: re-enter `doCallDestroy` + (DESTROY fires again). DBIC's `detected_reinvoked_destructor` sees + second invocation and emits the expected warning. +- Re-entry guard via `state == DESTROYING` instead of a + `currentlyDestroying` boolean (cleaner semantics). +- Phase 1's scope-exit completeness is a *prerequisite*: without it, local + lexicals inside DESTROY inflate refCount and cause false resurrection. + This phase ships only after Phase 1. + +**Exit criteria:** `/tmp/rescue_test.pl` shows 2 DESTROY calls in jperl +matching Perl's output. DBIC `t/storage/txn_scope_guard.t` test 18 passes. +No File::Temp DESTROY loops. + +### Phase 4 — On-demand reachability fallback (3–5 weeks) + +Goal: even when refCount drifts upward, weak refs get cleared when the +referent is actually unreachable from Perl roots. + +- Implement `ReachabilityWalker`: starts from the union of: + - `GlobalVariable.*` (symbol table: all stashes, globals, `@ISA`, etc.) + - All live lexical scopes (walk the call stack's JVM frames; each + lexical is a JVM local pointing to a RuntimeScalar/RuntimeArray/etc.) + - `rescuedObjects` + - DynamicVariable save stack +- Recursively walks references via `RuntimeBase.iterator()` / hash values + / array elements (treating weak refs as non-edges, matching + DBICTest's `visit_refs`). +- Produces a **reachable set**. Objects with weak refs registered but NOT + in the reachable set are "leaked" from Perl's view; clear their weak refs. +- **Trigger points**: + - On `Internals::SvREFCNT(\$x)` calls, if the refCount looks suspicious + (object is in the weak-ref registry and refCount disagrees with the + reachable set), return the reachability-based count instead. + Optional and gated by `$ENV{JPERL_ACCURATE_REFCNT}` in v1. + - At periodic intervals — e.g., every 1000th `MortalList.flush()` — do + a fast partial sweep limited to objects in the weak-ref registry. + This amortizes the cost across the script. + - Explicit entry point `jperl_gc()` for tests that need precision. +- **Cost analysis**: a full walk is O(live object graph). For typical + scripts this is <1ms. For DBIC tests (~100k objects), target <10ms. + Profile and set periodic trigger frequency accordingly. +- Compare-test against Perl: for every DBIC-style leak test, after all + Perl code runs, the reachable set from jperl must match Perl's refcount + reachability within epsilon. + +**Exit criteria:** DBIC t/52leaks.t tests 12-18 pass. The sweep overhead +at default frequency is <5% on `make test-bundled-modules` wall clock. + +### Phase 5 — Accurate `B::svref_2object->REFCNT` (1–2 weeks) + +Goal: `REFCNT` returns Perl-compatible values for diagnostic consumers. + +- When `Internals::SvREFCNT(\$x)` is called, use the reachability walker + to count *distinct* reference edges pointing to `$x`, not raw refCount. + For most cases these agree; for cases where refCount is inflated, use + the reachable-edge count. +- Audit `B::*` shim modules in `~/.perlonjava/lib` — ensure they pass + `REFCNT` through correctly. +- Test: for every reference in a Perl script, `REFCNT` at every checkpoint + agrees with native Perl within ±0 (not ±1 as today). + +**Exit criteria:** `dev/tools/refcount_diff.pl` reports 0 divergence on +all test corpora. + +### Phase 6 — Comprehensive CPAN validation (2–4 weeks) + +Goal: prove the changes unlock real-world modules. + +Target CPAN modules to run to completion: + +| Module | Why | +|---|---| +| Moose | Accessor inlining, BUILD/DEMOLISH ordering | +| Moo, MooX::late | Sub::Quote captures, DESTROY | +| DBIx::Class | 281 test files, heavy weaken/DESTROY | +| Catalyst | Circular refs in request/response chains | +| Plack, PSGI | Streaming response cleanup | +| Mojolicious | Event loop, timers with DESTROY | +| Data::Printer, Devel::Peek | Diagnostic consumers of REFCNT | +| Devel::Cycle, Devel::FindRef, Test::LeakTrace | Leak-detection tooling | +| DateTime::TimeZone | Class-level caching interacts with DESTROY | +| File::Temp, Path::Tiny | Filesystem cleanup on DESTROY | +| Cache::LRU, Cache::FastMmap | Weak refs in eviction policy | +| JSON::XS, YAML::XS, XML::LibXML | Deserialized anon containers | +| Tie::RefHash::Weak | Pathological weak-ref case | + +For each, run its full test suite on both `perl` and `jperl` and commit a +diff report. Accept only files where jperl's results match or exceed what +master jperl achieves today. + +**Exit criteria:** At least 8 of the above modules achieve full-parity +test pass rates. None regress from today. + +### Phase 7 — Interpreter backend parity (1–2 weeks, runs in parallel) + +The interpreter backend (`./jperl --int`) has different refcount +code paths (AST walker instead of bytecode) and must be updated in +lockstep. For each Phase 1–5 change: + +- Apply the same semantic fix to the interpreter AST walker. +- Run `.cognition/skills/interpreter-parity/` checks. +- Cross-compare: every test that passes on the JVM backend must also pass + on `--int`. + +**Exit criteria:** interpreter-parity skill reports 0 divergences on the +destroy-semantics corpus. + +## 6. Risk Analysis & Rollback + +Each phase is independently shippable. Rollback is per-commit. + +| Phase | Risk | Mitigation | +|---|---|---| +| 0 (Diagnostics) | None — pure tooling | — | +| 1 (Scope exit) | Could break closures/eval/goto by over-decrementing | Large test corpus from Phase 0; feature-flag behind `JPERL_STRICT_SCOPE_EXIT=1` during validation | +| 2 (`@_` aliasing) | XS / C-level assumptions could break | Feature-flag `JPERL_ALIASED_AT_UNDERSCORE=1`; keep old behavior as fallback for first release | +| 3 (DESTROY FSM) | Resurrection cycles if state machine has bugs | Loop detection (fail fast with RuntimeException above 1000 DESTROY calls on same object) | +| 4 (Reachability) | Cost; rarely-triggered edge cases (tied vars, weak refs into globs) | Profile extensively; amortize via periodic not per-op; keep current cooperative refcount as source of truth, reachability as fallback | +| 5 (REFCNT API) | CPAN modules with specific REFCNT expectations might break | Opt-in via `JPERL_ACCURATE_REFCNT=1` for one release; default-on in next | +| 6 (CPAN validation) | Modules may need small patches for their own test bugs | Apply via `dev/patches/cpan/` if module's test is jperl-unaware | +| 7 (Interpreter) | Double the work | Share semantic helpers between backends via `runtime` classes | + +## 7. What Stays the Same + +- JVM GC remains the memory manager. Cooperative refCount is *metadata*, + not storage. +- `MortalList` / `DynamicState` stack discipline unchanged. +- Existing compile-time optimizations (constant folding, type propagation) + unaffected. +- Existing weak-ref registry data structure unchanged; only clearing + triggers and timing shift. + +## 8. Open Questions + +1. **Tied variables** — `tie $scalar, 'Class'` adds a magic layer. Phase 4 + reachability must treat tied scalars as strong-ref holders. Need to + audit `RuntimeScalarType.TIED_SCALAR` / `TIED_HASH` / `TIED_ARRAY` + paths. +2. **Signal handlers & `END` blocks** — these run after main script exit. + Verify reachability walk includes signal-handler closures. +3. **`fork()`** — jperl doesn't implement fork. Any DESTROY cleanup that + assumes exec-then-exit semantics needs review. +4. **Profiler overhead** — the reachability walker will dominate profiling + for leak-detection scripts. Consider whether to expose a + `jperl_reachability_walker_enabled(0|1)` builtin. +5. **Multi-threading** — Perl `threads` aren't supported, but JVM threads + can run Perl-level code via inline Java. Current refCount is not + thread-safe. Phase 4 makes it easier to become thread-safe because the + reachability walker can be serialized at a global lock without needing + per-op atomics. Design decision: acquire stop-the-world for sweeps, + keep per-op refCount non-atomic. + +## 9. Validation + +A new `make test-destroy-semantics` target that runs: + +1. `perl5_t/t/destroy-semantics/` corpus (Phase 0). +2. `dev/sandbox/destroy_weaken/` existing tests. +3. DBIC `t/52leaks.t` + `t/storage/txn_scope_guard.t` + `t/storage/txn.t`. +4. Sub-set of Perl 5's own `t/op/destruct.t`, `t/op/weaken.t`, + `ext/Devel-Peek/t/Peek.t`. + +Must pass on both JVM backend and interpreter backend. Gated in CI. + +Additionally a **differential testing** job: run 100 random CPAN modules' +test suites on both `perl` and `jperl`, report any test-count regressions. + +## 10. Estimated Total Effort + +- Phase 0: 1–2 weeks +- Phase 1: 3–4 weeks +- Phase 2: 2–3 weeks +- Phase 3: 2–3 weeks +- Phase 4: 3–5 weeks +- Phase 5: 1–2 weeks +- Phase 6: 2–4 weeks +- Phase 7: 1–2 weeks + +**Total: 15–25 weeks** of focused work for a single developer; much +less with parallelism, since Phases 2 / 3 / 4 are largely independent. + +## 11. Success Metric + +The project succeeds when: + +```bash +# DBIC full suite +cd $DBIC_BUILD +prove -rv t/ -j 4 +# All tests pass, including: +# - t/52leaks.t (28 tests) +# - t/storage/txn.t (90 tests) +# - t/storage/txn_scope_guard.t (18 tests) + +# Perl core destroy semantics +make test-destroy-semantics +# All pass on both backends + +# CPAN compat +make test-bundled-modules +# No regressions from today + +# Diagnostic correctness +dev/tools/refcount_diff.pl dev/sandbox/destroy_weaken/*.pl +# 0 divergences from native perl +``` + +At that point PerlOnJava is a credible target for running the long tail of +CPAN modules that depend on deterministic destruction and accurate +reference counting — which is most of them. + +## 12.

PerlOnJava cannot implement `weaken`/`isweak` from `Scalar::Util`. DBIx::Class uses `Test::DBIx::Class::LeakTracer` which inserts `is_refcount`-based leak tests at END time. +Assertion runs **during test execution** (line 526), not in an END block. `clearAllBlessedWeakRefs()` (END-time sweep) is too late. -**What's needed to fix**: -- **Option A (hard)**: Implement reference counting alongside JVM GC using a side table mapping object IDs to manual ref counts. Would require wrapping every `RuntimeScalar` assignment. Massive performance impact. -- **Option B (pragmatic)**: Accept these as known failures. The GC tests verify Perl-specific memory patterns that don't apply to JVM. Real functionality works correctly. -- **Option C (workaround)**: Patch DBIx::Class's test infrastructure to skip leak tests when `Scalar::Util::weaken` is not functional. Could set `$ENV{DBIC_SKIP_LEAK_TESTS}` or similar. +### Root Cause: Parent Container Inflation -**Impact**: Makes test output noisy (287 GC-only sub-test failures) but does NOT affect functionality. +`$base_collection` (parent anonymous hash) has refCount inflated by JVM temporaries from: +- `visit_refs()` deep walk (passes hashref as function arg) +- `populate_weakregistry()` + hash access temporaries +- `Storable::dclone` internals +- `$fire_resultsets->()` closures -### RowParser.pm line 260 crash (post-test cleanup) +When scope exits, scalar releases 1 reference but hash stays at refCount > 0. `callDestroy` never fires → `scopeExitCleanupHash` never walks elements → weak refs persist. -**Symptom**: `Not a HASH reference at RowParser.pm line 260` — occurs 8 times across the test suite, always in END blocks or cleanup after tests have already completed. +**Implication**: Fixes that hook into callDestroy/scopeExit for the parent hash are blocked because it never dies. Our minimal reproducers (`/tmp/dbic_like.pl`, `/tmp/blessed_leak.pl`, `/tmp/circular_leak.pl`) no longer leak, but the real DBIC pattern still does. -**Root cause**: During END-block teardown, `_resolve_collapse` is called with stale or partially-destroyed data structures. The code does `$my_cols->{$_}{via_fk}` where `$my_cols->{$_}` may have been clobbered during object destruction. Since PerlOnJava lacks `DESTROY`/`DEMOLISH`, circular references persist and cleanup code may run in unexpected order. +### Diagnostic Facts -**What's needed to fix**: -- Investigate exactly which END block triggers the call -- May be related to `weaken` absence — objects that should be dead are still alive -- Could potentially be fixed by adding defensive `ref()` checks in RowParser.pm, but that's patching the module rather than fixing the engine +- **B::REFCNT inflates by +1** vs actual: `B::svref_2object($x)->REFCNT` calls `Internals::SvREFCNT($self->{ref})` which bumps via B::SV's blessed hash slot. Failure inventory values are actual refCount + 1 (or 0 when refCount = MIN_VALUE). +- **Unicode confirmed irrelevant**: t/52leaks.t uses only ASCII data. -**Impact**: Non-blocking — all real tests complete before the crash. Only affects test harness exit code. +### Next Steps ---- +Both remaining failures (t/52leaks.t tests 12-18 and t/storage/txn_scope_guard.t test 18) hit **fundamental limitations** of PerlOnJava's cooperative refCounting that can't be solved without a major architectural change: -## Remaining Real Failures — Categorized (updated 2026-04-02) +#### Why t/52leaks.t tests 12-18 Are Blocked -Of the 40 test files with real TAP failures, detailed analysis shows: -- **4 files**: GC-only (previously miscounted — t/storage/txn.t, t/101populate_rs.t, t/inflate/hri.t, t/storage/nobindvars.t) -- **5 files**: TODO/SKIP + GC only (t/inflate/core.t, t/inflate/datetime.t, t/sqlmaker/order_by_func.t, t/prefetch/count.t, t/delete/related.t) -- **9 files**: Real logic bugs (38 individual test failures across 6 root causes) -- **Remainder**: DESTROY-dependent or already-fixed +`$base_collection` (parent anonymous hash) has refCount inflated by JVM temporaries created during `visit_refs`, `populate_weakregistry`, `Storable::dclone`, `$fire_resultsets->()`. When its scope exits, the scalar releases 1 reference but the hash stays at refCount > 0 → `callDestroy` never fires → `scopeExitCleanupHash` never cascades into children → weak refs persist. -### Previously Fixed Tests — RESOLVED +Attempted fixes: +- **Orphan sweep for refCount==0 objects** (Fix 10n attempt #1): No effect because leaked objects have refCount 1-5, not 0. +- **Deep cascade from parent at scope exit**: Parent itself never triggers scope exit because its refCount > 0. +- **Reachability-based weak-ref clearing**: Would require true mark-and-sweep from symbol-table roots — a major architectural addition. -| Test | Status | What was fixed | -|------|--------|----------------| -| `t/64db.t` | **FIXED** (4/4 real pass) | `column_info()` implemented via SQLite PRAGMA (step 5.13) | -| `t/752sqlite.t` | **FIXED** (34/34 real pass) | AutoCommit tracking + BEGIN/COMMIT/ROLLBACK interception (steps 5.14-5.15); `prepare_cached` per-dbh cache (step 5.16) | -| `t/00describe_environment.t` | **FIXED** (fully passing) | `$^S` correctly reports 1 inside `$SIG{__DIE__}` for `require` failures in `eval {}` (step 5.17) | -| `t/83cache.t` | **FIXED** (all real tests pass) | Prefetch result collapsing fixed by `//=` short-circuit fix (step 5.37) | -| `t/90join_torture.t` | **FIXED** (all real tests pass) | Same `//=` short-circuit fix (step 5.37) | -| `t/106dbic_carp.t` | **FIXED** (3/3 real pass) | `__LINE__` inside `@{[]}` string interpolation (step 5.18) | -| `t/84serialize.t` | **FIXED** (115/115 real pass) | STORABLE_freeze/thaw hook support (step 5.29) | -| `t/101populate_rs.t` | **FIXED** (165/165 real pass) | Parser disambiguation (step 5.36), last_insert_id (step 5.35), context propagation (step 5.31) | -| `t/90ensure_class_loaded.t` | **FIXED** (28/28 real pass) | @INC CODE refs (step 5.24), relative filenames (step 5.32b) | -| `t/40resultsetmanager.t` | **FIXED** (5/5 real pass) | MODIFY_CODE_ATTRIBUTES (step 5.22) | +The simple reproducers (`/tmp/dbic_like.pl`, `/tmp/blessed_leak.pl`, `/tmp/anon_refcount{2,3,4}.pl`, `/tmp/dbic_like2.pl`) all pass. Only the full DBIC pattern leaks, because real DBIC code paths create JVM temporaries via overloaded comparisons, accessor chains, method resolution, etc. -### Root Cause Cluster 1: SQL `ORDER__BY` counter offset — 16 tests +#### Why t/storage/txn_scope_guard.t test 18 Is Blocked -| Test | Failures | Details | -|------|----------|---------| -| `t/sqlmaker/limit_dialects/fetch_first.t` | 8 | SQL generates `ORDER__BY__000` but expected `ORDER__BY__001` | -| `t/sqlmaker/limit_dialects/toplimit.t` | 8 | Same counter offset bug | +Test requires DESTROY resurrection semantics: a strong ref to the object escapes DESTROY via `@DB::args` capture in a `$SIG{__WARN__}` handler. When that ref is later released, Perl calls DESTROY a *second* time; DBIC's `detected_reinvoked_destructor` emits `Preventing *MULTIPLE* DESTROY()` warning. -**Root cause**: Global counter/state initialization off-by-one in SQLMaker limit dialect rewriting. Likely a single variable init fix. +Attempted fix (Fix 10n attempt #2): Set `refCount = 0` during DESTROY body (not MIN_VALUE), track `currentlyDestroying` flag to guard re-entry, detect resurrection by checking `refCount > 0` post-DESTROY. -### Root Cause Cluster 2: Multi-create FK insertion ordering — 9 tests +**Failure mode**: `my $self = shift` inside DESTROY body increments `refCount` to 1 via `setLargeRefCounted` when `$self` is assigned. When DESTROY returns, `$self` is a Java local that goes out of scope without triggering a corresponding decrement (PerlOnJava lexicals don't hook scope-exit decrements for scalar copies). Post-DESTROY `refCount=1` → false resurrection detection → loops indefinitely on File::Temp DESTROY during DBIC test loading. -| Test | Failures | Details | -|------|----------|---------| -| `t/multi_create/in_memory.t` | 8 | `NOT NULL constraint failed: cd.artist` — FK not set before child INSERT | -| `t/multi_create/standard.t` | 1 | Same root cause | +Root cause: PerlOnJava's cooperative refCount scheme can't accurately track the net delta from a DESTROY body, because lexical assignments increment but lexical destruction doesn't always decrement. -**Root cause**: When creating parent + child in one `create()` call, the parent's auto-generated ID isn't being propagated to the child row before INSERT. May relate to `last_insert_id` code path in multi-create or `new_related`/`insert` ordering. +#### What Would Fix Both -### Root Cause Cluster 3: SQL condition parenthesization — 10 tests +Either: +1. **True reachability-based GC** — mark from symbol-table roots on demand, clear weak refs for unreachable objects. Expensive but matches Perl's model exactly. +2. **Accurate lexical decrement at scope exit** — audit every `my $x = <ref>` path to ensure scope exit fires a matching decrement. Large, risky refactor. -| Test | Failures | Details | -|------|----------|---------| -| `t/search/stack_cond.t` | 7 | Extra wrapping parens: `WHERE ( ( ( ... ) ) )` instead of flat `WHERE ...` | -| `t/sqlmaker/dbihacks_internals.t` | 3 | Condition collapse produces HASH where ARRAY expected (2870/2877 pass) | +See [`dev/design/refcount_alignment_plan.md`](../design/refcount_alignment_plan.md) for a phased plan that implements both. -**Root cause**: SQL::Abstract or DBIC condition stacking adds extra parenthesization layers. +Deferred until such architectural work becomes practical. -### Root Cause Cluster 4: Transaction/scope guard — 6 real tests + DESTROY +### Historical notes (previously attempted) -| Test | Failures | Details | -|------|----------|---------| -| `t/storage/txn_scope_guard.t` | 6 real + 2 TODO + ~36 GC | "Correct transaction depth", "rollback successful without exception", missing expected warnings | +1. **visit_refs / LeakTracer instrumentation** — ran diagnostics, identified parent hash refCount inflation as the blocker. +2. **`createReference()` audit** — Fixed: Storable, DBI.

Perl 5 parses this as `($x ? (@$a = ()) : $b) = []`, where the true branch is a LIST assignment expression. - -**Root cause**: LIST assignments in scalar context return cached `RuntimeScalarReadOnly` values (e.g., the element count 0). When the ternary stored this in a spill slot and the outer assignment tried to `.set()` on it, `RuntimeBaseProxy.set()` called `vivify()` → `RuntimeScalarReadOnly.vivify()` threw the error. - -**Fix**: In `EmitVariable.handleAssignOperator()`, detect when the LHS ternary has LIST assignment branches (via `LValueVisitor.getContext()`). For those branches, emit the inner assignment in void context (side effects only) and use the outer RHS as the result. Non-LIST-assignment branches (including scalar assignments like `$c = 100` which return the writable target variable) still get the outer assignment applied normally as lvalue targets. - -**Key distinction**: Scalar assignments (`$a = 1`) return the variable itself (writable lvalue). LIST assignments (`@a = ()`) return the element count (read-only cached value). Only LIST assignment branches need special handling. - -**Impact**: Enables the Class::Accessor::Grouped pattern: `wantarray ? @rv = eval $src : $rv[0] = eval $src` - -### File::stat VerifyError — FIXED (resolved by prior commits) -- `use File::stat` no longer triggers VerifyError -- Confirmed working with JVM backend (no interpreter fallback) -- Both the `Class::Struct + use overload` combination and `eval { &{"Fcntl::S_IF..."} }` patterns now compile correctly - -### JDBC error message format mismatch — FIXED (step 5.25) - -**Fix**: Added `normalizeErrorMessage()` in `DBI.java` that extracts the parenthesized native message from JDBC-wrapped errors like `[SQLITE_MISMATCH] Data type mismatch (datatype mismatch)` → `datatype mismatch`. - -### SQL expression formatting differences (t/100populate.t tests 37-42) — FIXED - -**Fix**: Transaction depth cleanup after failed `_insert_bulk`. The issue was that `TxnScopeGuard::DESTROY` never fires in PerlOnJava (no DESTROY support), so after `_insert_bulk` failed, `transaction_depth` stayed at 1 permanently. Fixed by wrapping the guard-protected code in `eval { ... } or do { ... }` that manually rolls back on error. - -### bind parameter attribute handling (t/100populate.t tests 58-59) — PARTIALLY FIXED - -**Test 58 (FIXED)**: The `\Q` delimiter escaping bug caused `qr/\Qfoo\/bar/` to produce `(?^:foo\\\/bar)` instead of `(?^:foo\/bar)`. Fixed in `StringParser.java` by resolving delimiter escaping before `\Q` processing. - -**Test 59 (STILL FAILING)**: `literal+bind with semantically identical attrs works after normalization`. The `execute_for_fetch()` aborts with "statement is not executing" from the SQLite JDBC driver. This happens when DBIx::Class's `_insert_bulk` uses `bind_param` with type attributes, then calls `execute_for_fetch` which calls `execute(@$tuple)` for each row. The JDBC PreparedStatement may need to be re-prepared or have its state reset between executions in the batch context. - -## Summary - -| Phase | Complexity | Description | Status | -|-------|-----------|-------------|--------| -| 1 | Medium | Unblock Makefile.PL (4 engine fixes) | DONE | -| 2 | Medium | Install ~11 missing pure-Perl deps via jcpan | DONE | -| 3 | Simple | Fix DBI version detection | DONE | -| 4 | Medium | Create DBD::SQLite JDBC compatibility shim | DONE | -| 4.5 | Medium | Fix CORE::GLOBAL::caller override bug | DONE | -| 4.6 | Medium | Fix stash aliasing glob vivification | DONE | -| 4.7 | Simple | Fix mixed-context ternary lvalue assignment | DONE | -| 4.8 | Simple | Fix `cp` on read-only installed files | DONE | -| 5 | Complex | Fix runtime issues iteratively | **CURRENT** | - -## Progress Tracking - -### Current Status: Phase 5 — fixing runtime issues iteratively - -### Completed Phases -- [x] Phase 1: Unblock Makefile.PL (2025-03-31) - - Blocker 1: Added strict::bits to Strict.java - - Blocker 2: Fixed UNIVERSAL::can AUTOLOAD filter in Universal.java - - Blocker 3: Fixed goto &sub wantarray propagation + eval{} @_ sharing - - Blocker 4: Fixed +{} hash constructor parsing in IdentifierParser.java -- [x] Phase 2: Install missing pure-Perl dependencies (2025-03-31) - - All 11 modules installed via `./jcpan -fi` -- [x] Phase 3: Fix DBI version detection (2025-03-31) - - Added `our $VERSION = '1.643'` to DBI.pm -- [x] Phase 4: Create DBD::SQLite JDBC shim (2025-03-31) - - Created DBD/SQLite.pm DSN translation shim - - Added sqlite-jdbc 3.49.1.0 dependency - - Wrapped getMetaData()/getParameterMetaData() in DBI.java -- [x] Phase 4.5: Fix CORE::GLOBAL::caller bug (2025-03-31) - - Fixed whitespace-sensitive token insertion in ParsePrimary.java - - Test::Exception + Sub::Uplevel now work correctly -- [x] Phase 4.6: Fix stash aliasing glob vivification (2025-03-31) - - Added `resolveStashHashRedirect()` to GlobalVariable.java - - Applied redirect in `getGlobalIO()` and EmitVariable.java (JVM backend) - - Unblocks Package::Stash::PP and namespace::clean -- [x] Phase 4.7: Fix mixed-context ternary lvalue assignment (2025-03-31) - - Added `assignmentTypeOf()` helper matching Perl 5's `S_assignment_type()` — assignment expressions classified as SCALAR in ternary branches - - Unblocks Class::Accessor::Grouped (compile-time) - - Known runtime limitation: ternary-as-lvalue with assignment branches fails for non-constant conditions (e.g., `wantarray`) -- [x] Phase 4.8: Fix `cp` on read-only installed files (2025-03-31) - - Changed `_shell_cp` in ExtUtils::MakeMaker.pm to `rm -f` then `cp` - - Fixes reinstall of modules with read-only (0444) .pod/.pm files -- [x] Phase 5 steps 5.1–5.8 (2026-03-31 / 2026-04-01) - - 5.1: Fixed `@${$v}` string interpolation in StringSegmentParser.java - - 5.2: Added `B::SV::REFCNT` returning 0 (JVM has no reference counting) - - 5.3: Added DBI `FETCH`/`STORE` wrappers for tied-hash compatibility - - 5.4: Created `DBI::Const::GetInfoReturn` stub module - - 5.5: Fixed list assignment autovivification in RuntimeList.java - - 5.6: Added DBI `execute_for_fetch` and `bind_param` methods - - 5.7: Fixed `&func` (no parens) to share caller's `@_` by alias — unblocks Hash::Merge - - 5.8: Fixed DBI `execute()` to return row count per DBI spec — unblocks UPDATE operations -- [x] Phase 5 steps 5.9–5.12 (2026-04-01) - - 5.9: Set `$dbh->{Driver}` with `DBI::dr` object — DBIC now detects SQLite driver - - 5.10: Fixed `get_info()` to accept numeric DBI constants and return scalar - - 5.11: Added DBI SQL type constants (`SQL_BIGINT`, `SQL_INTEGER`, etc.) - - 5.12: Fixed `bind_columns` + `fetch` to update bound scalar references — unblocks ALL join/prefetch queries - - Result: 51/65 active tests now pass all real tests (was ~15/65 before) -- [x] Phase 5 steps 5.13–5.16 (2026-04-01) - - 5.13: Implemented `column_info()` via SQLite `PRAGMA table_info()` — preserves original type case (JDBC uppercases), returns pre-fetched rows;

fixes SQLite JDBC autocommit conflicts - - 5.16: Fixed `prepare_cached` to use per-dbh `CachedKids` cache instead of global hash — prevents cross-connection cache pollution when multiple `:memory:` SQLite connections share the same DSN name; added `if_active` parameter handling - - Also: `execute()` now handles metadata sth (no PreparedStatement) gracefully; `fetchrow_hashref` supports PRAGMA pre-fetched rows - - Result: 60/68 active tests now pass all real tests (was 51/65 = 78%, now 88%) -- [x] Phase 5 steps 5.17–5.19 (2026-04-01, earlier session) - - 5.17: Fixed `$^S` to correctly report 1 inside `$SIG{__DIE__}` when `require` fails in `eval {}` — temporarily restores `evalDepth` in `catchEval()` before calling handler.

Fixes t/100populate.t test 58 - - 5.27: Fixed `bind_param()` to defer `stmt.setObject()` to `execute()` — removed immediate JDBC call, params stored in `bound_params` hash only. Also stores bind attributes in `bound_attrs` hash - - 5.28: Fixed `execute()` to apply stored `bound_params` when no inline params provided — uses `RuntimeScalarType.isReference()` check (not `== REFERENCE` which misses `HASHREFERENCE`) - - Also: Transaction depth cleanup in `_insert_bulk` (patched DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI.pm) — wraps guard-protected code in eval/or-do that manually rolls back on error since TxnScopeGuard::DESTROY doesn't fire - - Result: t/100populate.t now passes 59/60 real tests (was ~36/65; tests 37-42, 52-53, 58 newly passing) -- [x] Phase 5 steps 5.29–5.30 (2026-04-01) - - 5.29: Added STORABLE_freeze/thaw hook support — `dclone()` uses direct deep-copy (`deepClone()`) instead of YAML round-trip, calling hooks on blessed objects; `freeze`/`nfreeze` YAML serialization checks for `STORABLE_freeze` and stores frozen data with `!!perl/freeze:` tag; `thaw`/`nthaw` handles `!!perl/freeze:` by creating new blessed object and calling `STORABLE_thaw`. Fixes entire freeze/thaw chain for DBIx::Class objects (ResultSource → ResultSourceHandle → Schema) - - 5.30: Added retry logic for stale PreparedStatements after ROLLBACK — if `setObject`/`execute` throws "not executing", re-prepares via `conn.prepareStatement()` and retries once - - Result: t/84serialize.t now passes 115/115 real tests (was 0); t/100populate.t at 52/60 (tests 37-42 regressed due to lost _insert_bulk patch in rebuilt cpan build dir) -- [x] Phase 5 step 5.31 (2026-04-01) - - 5.31: Fixed interpreter context propagation for subroutine bodies — when anonymous/named subs are compiled by the bytecode interpreter (due to JVM "Method too large" fallback), the calling context was hardcoded as LIST. Set `subCompiler.currentCallContext = RUNTIME` in `BytecodeCompiler` for both `visitAnonymousSubroutine()` and `visitNamedSubroutine()`. Added RUNTIME→register 2 resolution in 22+ opcode handlers across `BytecodeInterpreter`, `OpcodeHandlerExtended`, `InlineOpcodeHandler`, `MiscOpcodeHandler`, `SlowOpcodeHandler`. All `op/wantarray.t` tests pass (28/28). Fixes t/101populate_rs.t test 4. -- [x] Phase 5 step 5.32 (2026-04-01) - - 5.32a: Fixed B::CV introspection — `B::svref_2object(\&sub)->STASH->NAME` and `GV->NAME` now correctly report the defining package and sub name using `Sub::Util::subname` introspection, instead of always returning "main"/"__ANON__". `CvFLAGS` now only sets `CVf_ANON` for anonymous subs. Fixes DBIx::Class t/85utf8.t tests 7-8 (warnings_like tests for incorrect UTF8Columns loading order detection, which depend on `B::svref_2object($coderef)->STASH->NAME` in `Componentised.pm`). - - 5.32b: Preserved @INC entry relativity in require/use filenames — `ModuleOperators.java` now uses `dirName + "/" + fileName` for display/error-message filenames instead of the absolute resolved path. File I/O still uses the absolute `fullName` internally. This makes error messages and `%INC` match Perl 5 behavior (e.g. `t/lib/Foo.pm` instead of `/abs/path/t/lib/Foo.pm`). Fixes DBIx::Class t/90ensure_class_loaded.t test 28. -- [x] Phase 5 step 5.33 (2026-04-01) - - 5.33a: Fixed `Long.MIN_VALUE` overflow in `initializeWithLong()` — `Math.abs(Long.MIN_VALUE)` overflows in Java (returns `Long.MIN_VALUE`, a negative number), causing the value to be incorrectly stored as `double` instead of `String`. Changed to direct range comparison `(lv <= 2^53 && lv >= -2^53)` to avoid the overflow. Fixes t/752sqlite.t test 170 (64-bit signed int boundary value). - - 5.33b: Full DBIx::Class test suite scan — ran all 87 test files. Results: 18 clean passes, 44 GC-only failures (known JVM limitation), 22 skipped (no DB/fork/threads), and only 2 files with real non-GC failures remaining: t/85utf8.t (utf8 flag semantics, systemic JVM issue) and t/88result_set_column.t (DBIx::Class TODO test, not a PerlOnJava bug). -- [x] Phase 5 step 5.34 (2026-04-01) - - 5.34a: Fixed ternary-as-lvalue with LIST assignment branches — In `EmitVariable.handleAssignOperator()`, detect when the LHS ternary has LIST assignment branches (via `LValueVisitor.getContext()`). For LIST assignment branches, emit in void context (side effects only) and use the outer RHS as result. Scalar assignment branches (which return writable lvalues) use the normal code path. Enables `wantarray ? @rv = eval $src : $rv[0] = eval $src` (Class::Accessor::Grouped pattern). - - 5.34b: Confirmed File::stat VerifyError is already fixed — `use File::stat` works natively with JVM backend (no interpreter fallback). Both `Class::Struct + use overload` and `eval { &{"Fcntl::S_IF..."} }` patterns compile correctly. -- [x] Phase 5 steps 5.35–5.37 (2026-04-01) - - 5.35: Fixed `last_insert_id()` — replaced statement-level `getGeneratedKeys()` with connection-level SQL queries (`SELECT last_insert_rowid()` for SQLite, `LASTVAL()` for PostgreSQL, etc.). The old approach broke when any `prepare()` call between INSERT and `last_insert_id()` overwrote the stored statement handle. Fixes t/79aliasing.t, t/87ordered.t, t/101populate_rs.t auto-increment detection. - - 5.36: Fixed `%{{ expr }}` parser disambiguation — added `insideDereference` flag to Parser.java. In `Variable.parseBracedVariable()`, sets flag before calling `ParseBlock.parseBlock()`. In `StatementResolver.isHashLiteral()`, when inside dereference context with no block indicators, defaults to hash (true) instead of block (false). Fixes `%{{ map { ... } @list }}` (RowParser.pm `__unique_numlist`) and `values %{{ func() }}` (Ordered.pm) patterns. Unblocks t/79aliasing.t, t/87ordered.t, t/101populate_rs.t. - - 5.37: Fixed `//=`, `||=`, `&&=` short-circuit in bytecode interpreter — the bytecode compiler (`BytecodeCompiler.handleCompoundAssignment()`) was eagerly evaluating the RHS before the `DEFINED_OR_ASSIGN`/`LOGICAL_AND_ASSIGN`/`LOGICAL_OR_ASSIGN` opcode checked the condition. Side effects like `$result_pos++` always executed, breaking DBIx::Class's eval-generated row collapser code. Added `handleShortCircuitAssignment()` that compiles LHS first, emits `GOTO_IF_TRUE`/`GOTO_IF_FALSE` to conditionally skip RHS evaluation, and only assigns via `SET_SCALAR` when needed. Fixes prefetch result collapsing in t/83cache.t test 7 and t/90join_torture.t test 4. - -### Test Suite Summary (314 files, updated 2026-04-02) - -| Category | Count | Details | -|----------|-------|---------| -| Fully passing | 72 | 24 substantive + 48 DB-specific skips | -| GC-only failures | 147 | All real tests pass; only appended GC leak checks fail | -| Real TAP failures | 40 | 9 files with real logic bugs (38 tests); rest are DESTROY/TODO/GC | -| CDBI errors | 41 | Need Class::DBI — expected | -| Other errors | 13 | Missing DateTime modules, syntax errors | -| Incomplete | 1 | t/inflate/file_column.t | - -**Individual test pass rate: 96.7%** (8,923/9,231) - -### Dependency Module Test Results (updated 2026-04-02) - -| Module | Pass Rate | Tests OK/Total | Key Failures | -|--------|-----------|----------------|--------------| -| Class-C3-Componentised | **100%** | 46/46 | None | -| Context-Preserve | **100%** | 14/14 | None | -| namespace-clean | **99.4%** | 2086/2099 | Stash symbol deletion edge cases | -| Hash-Merge | **99.4%** | 845/850 | GC/weaken | -| SQL-Abstract-Classic | **100%** | 1311/1311 | None | -| Class-Accessor-Grouped | **97.8%** | 543/555 | GC/weaken | -| Moo | **97.3%** | 816/839 | weaken, DEMOLISH, `no Moo` cleanup | -| MRO-Compat | **100%** | 26/26 | None | -| Sub-Quote | **98.7%** | 2720/2755 | GC/weaken (28), hints propagation (5), syntax error line numbering (1), use integer (1) | -| Config-Any | ~80-90% | 58/113 (runner artifact) | Passes individually; parallel runner issue | - -**Aggregate: 99.3%** (8,383/8,435 across all dependency modules) - -### Implementation Plan (Phase 5 continued) - -#### Tier 1 — Quick Wins (18 DBIC tests) ✅ COMPLETED - -| Step | What | Tests Fixed | Status | -|------|------|------------|--------| -| 5.38 | SQL `ORDER__BY` counter offset | 16 | ✅ Done | -| 5.39 | `prepare_cached` error message | 1 | ✅ Done | -| 5.40 | `-and` array condition in `find()` | 1 | ✅ Done | - -#### Tier 2 — Medium Effort (21 DBIC tests) ✅ COMPLETED - -| Step | What | Tests Fixed | Status | -|------|------|------------|--------| -| 5.41 | Multi-create FK / DBI HandleError | 9 | ✅ Done — root cause was missing HandleError support | -| 5.42 | SQL condition / Storable sort order | 10 | ✅ Done — binary Storable serializer matching Perl 5 | -| 5.43 | Custom opaque relationship SQL | 2 | ✅ Done — fixed PerlOnJava autovivification bug | - -#### Tier 3+ — Dependency Module Fixes - -| Step | What | Tests Fixed | Status | -|------|------|------------|--------| -| 5.44 | Nested ref-of-ref detection (`ref()` chain) | 4 (SQL-Abstract) | Done | -| 5.45 | `caller()` hints: `$^H` and `%^H` return values | 53 (Sub-Quote) | Done | -| 5.46 | `mro::get_isarev` dynamic scan + `pkg_gen` auto-increment | 4 (MRO-Compat) | Done | -| 5.47 | BytecodeCompiler sub-compiler pragma inheritance | 2 (Sub-Quote) | Done | -| 5.48 | `warn()` returns 1 (was undef) | 1 (SQL-Abstract IS NULL) | Done | -| 5.49 | Overload fallback semantics and autogeneration | 17 (SQL-Abstract overload) | Done | -| 5.50 | B.pm SV flags rewrite (IOK/NOK/POK) | quotify.t countable | Done | -| 5.51 | Large integer literals stored as DOUBLE not STRING | 6 (quotify.t) | Done | -| 5.52 | `caller()` in eval STRING with `#line` directives | Sub-Quote | Done | -| 5.53 | Interpreter LIST_SLICE implementation | 4 (Sub-Quote) | Done | -| 5.54 | LIST_SLICE opcode collision + scalar context | 2 (op/pack.t) | Done | -| 5.55 | Storable nfreeze/thaw STORABLE_freeze/thaw hooks | 115 (t/84serialize.t) | Done | - -#### Systemic — Not planned for short-term - -- GC / weaken / isweak (~44 files with GC-only noise) -- UTF8 flag semantics (8 tests in t/85utf8.t — JVM strings are natively Unicode) - -#### Phase 6 — DBI Statement Handle Lifecycle ✅ COMPLETED - -**Root cause**: Three compounding bugs in PerlOnJava DBI's `Active` flag management: -1. `prepare()` copies ALL dbh attributes to sth including `Active=true` (DBI.java line 193) -2. `execute()` never sets `Active` based on whether there are results -3.

Fix caches the autovivification hash in the scalar's - value field so subsequent hashDeref() calls reuse the same hash. - -**Step 5.44 (2026-04-02):** -- Fixed `ref()` for nested references: `ref(\\$x)` returned "SCALAR" instead of "REF" -- Root cause: `REFERENCE` type missing from inner switch in `ReferenceOperators.ref()` — - when a REFERENCE pointed to another REFERENCE, it fell to `default -> "SCALAR"` -- Also fixed parallel bug in `builtin::reftype` in `Builtin.java` -- Files changed: `ReferenceOperators.java`, `Builtin.java` -- SQL-Abstract-Classic `t/09refkind.t` now 13/13 (was 9/13) -- Remaining 18 SQL-Abstract failures: 17 in `t/23_is_X_value.t` (overload fallback - detection — `use overload bool` without `fallback` should allow auto-stringification - in Perl 5 ≥ 5.17, but PerlOnJava's overload doesn't support this derivation), - 1 in `t/02where.t` (`{like => undef}` generates `requestor NULL` instead of `IS NULL`) - -**Step 5.45 (2026-04-02):** -- Implemented `caller()[8]` ($^H hints) and `caller()[10]` (%^H hint hash) return values -- Created parallel infrastructure to existing `callerBitsStack`: `callSiteHints`, - `callerHintsStack`, `callSiteHintHash`, `callerHintHashStack` in `WarningBitsRegistry.java` -- Wired emission in `EmitCompilerFlag.java` and `BytecodeCompiler.java` -- Updated `RuntimeCode.java` to read hints at caller frames and push/pop at all 3 apply() sites -- Updated `PerlLanguageProvider.java` for BEGIN block hints propagation -- Sub-Quote improved from 137/178 to 188/237 (different test count due to hints.t newly countable) - -**Step 5.46 (2026-04-02):** -- Fixed `mro::get_isarev` to dynamically scan all @ISA arrays instead of hardcoded class names -- Implemented `GlobalVariable.getAllIsaArrays()` (was empty stub) -- Made `Mro.incrementPackageGeneration()` public; called from `RuntimeGlob.java` on CODE assignment -- Added lazy @ISA change detection in `get_pkg_gen()` via `pkgGenIsaState` map -- Files changed: `GlobalVariable.java`, `Mro.java`, `RuntimeGlob.java` -- MRO-Compat now 26/26 (was 22/26) — 100% - -**Step 5.47 (2026-04-02):** -- Fixed BytecodeCompiler sub-compiler not inheriting pragma flags (strict/warnings/features) -- Root cause: Sub::Quote generates `sub { BEGIN { $^H = 1538; } ... }` in eval STRING; - the sub-compiler created for the sub body didn't inherit the parent's pragma state -- Added `getEffectiveSymbolTable()` helper with fallback to `this.symbolTable` when - `emitterContext` is null. Updated 5 pragma check methods to use it. -- Added `inheritPragmaFlags()` method called in both named and anonymous sub compilation -- Sub-Quote hints.t improved from 11/18 to 13/18; overall Sub-Quote: 190/237 (was 188/237) - -**Step 5.48 (2026-04-02):** -- Fixed `warn()` return value — Perl 5 `warn()` always returns 1; PerlOnJava returned undef -- Root cause: `WarnDie.java` line 199 returned `new RuntimeScalar()` (undef) instead of `new RuntimeScalar(1)` -- Impact: SQL-Abstract-Classic `{like => undef}` generated `requestor NULL` instead of `requestor IS NULL` - because `$self->belch(...) && 'is'` short-circuited on falsy return from warn/belch -- Files changed: `WarnDie.java` - -**Step 5.49 (2026-04-02):** -- Fixed overload fallback semantics and autogeneration -- Bug A: `tryOverloadFallback()` returned null when no `()` glob existed, blocking autogeneration. - Perl 5 says: no fallback specified → allow autogeneration -- Bug B: `prepare()` was CALLING the `()` method (which is `\&overload::nil`, returns undef) - instead of READING the SCALAR slot `${"Class::()"}` which holds the actual fallback value -- Rewrote `OverloadContext.prepare()` to walk hierarchy and read SCALAR slot -- Rewrote `tryOverloadFallback()` with correct 3-state semantics (undef/0/1) -- Added `tryTwoArgumentOverload()` with autogeneration varargs for compound ops -- Updated all 10 compound assignment methods in `MathOperators.java` to pass base operator -- Files changed: `OverloadContext.java`, `MathOperators.java` - -**Step 5.50 (2026-04-02):** -- Rewrote B.pm SV flags for proper integer/float/string distinction -- Updated SV flag constants to standard Perl 5 values (SVf_IOK=0x100, SVf_NOK=0x200, - SVf_POK=0x400, SVp_IOK=0x1000, SVp_NOK=0x2000, SVp_POK=0x4000) -- Rewrote `FLAGS()` method to use `builtin::created_as_number()` for proper type detection -- Added export functions for all new constants -- Files changed: `B.pm` - -**Step 5.51 (2026-04-02):** -- Fixed large integer literals (>= 2^31) stored as STRING instead of DOUBLE -- In Perl 5, integers that overflow IV are promoted to NV (double), not PV (string) -- JVM emitter (`EmitLiteral.java`): changed `isLargeInteger` boxed branch from - `new RuntimeScalar(String)` to `new RuntimeScalar(double)` -- Bytecode interpreter (`BytecodeCompiler.java`): changed from `LOAD_STRING` to - `LOAD_CONST` with double-valued `RuntimeScalar` -- Impact: quotify.t goes from 2586/2592 to 2592/2592 (6 large-integer tests fixed) -- Files changed: `EmitLiteral.java`, `BytecodeCompiler.java` - -**Step 5.52 (2026-04-01):** -- Fixed `caller(0)` returning wrong file/line in eval STRING with `#line` directives -- Root cause: ExceptionFormatter's frame skip logic assumed first frame is sub's own - location (true for JVM), but interpreter frames from CallerStack are already the call site -- Added `StackTraceResult` record to `ExceptionFormatter` with `firstFrameFromInterpreter` flag -- `callerWithSub()` now conditionally skips based on frame type -- Fixed eval STRING's `ErrorMessageUtil` to use `evalCtx.compilerOptions.fileName` -- Fixed sub naming: `SubroutineParser` uses fully qualified names via `NameNormalizer` -- Files changed: `ExceptionFormatter.java`, `RuntimeCode.java`, `SubroutineParser.java` - -**Step 5.53 (2026-04-01):** -- Fixed interpreter list slice: `(list)[indices]` was compiled as `[list]->[indices]` - (array ref dereference returning one scalar instead of proper list slice) -- Added `LIST_SLICE` opcode (452) that calls `RuntimeList.getSlice()` for proper - multi-element list slice semantics -- Files changed: `Opcodes.java`, `CompileBinaryOperator.java`, - `BytecodeInterpreter.java`, `Disassemble.java` -- Impact: Sub-Quote goes from 52/56 to 54/56 (tests 48,50,55,56 fixed) - -**Step 5.54 (2026-04-01):** -- Fixed opcode collision: `LIST_SLICE` and `VIVIFY_LVALUE` both assigned opcode 452 in - `Opcodes.java`. Changed `LIST_SLICE` to 453. -- Fixed interpreter LIST_SLICE scalar context conversion: `getSlice()` returns a - `RuntimeList` but in SCALAR context it should return the last element (via `.scalar()`), - not the count. Added context conversion in `BytecodeInterpreter.java` after - `list.getSlice(indices)` call, checking the `context` parameter and calling `.scalar()` - for scalar context or returning empty list for void context. -- Impact: op/pack.t tests 4173 and 4267 fixed — both use `(unpack(...))[0]` syntax which - triggers LIST_SLICE in interpreter. The `is($$@)` prototype forces first arg to scalar - context, so LIST_SLICE must honor context. -- Files changed: `Opcodes.java` (452→453), `BytecodeInterpreter.java` -- Commit: `9e53afe78` - -**Step 5.55 (2026-04-01):** -- Fixed Storable `nfreeze()`/`thaw()` to call `STORABLE_freeze`/`STORABLE_thaw` hooks on - blessed objects. Previously only `dclone()` (via `deepClone()`) called these hooks; - `serializeBinary()` and `deserializeBinary()` raw-serialized blessed objects without hooks. -- Added `SX_HOOK` (type 19) to binary format for hook-serialized objects, containing: - class name, serialized string from freeze, and any extra refs -- In `serializeBinary()`: check for STORABLE_freeze method before the existing SX_BLESS - code path. If found, call hook and emit SX_HOOK format. -- In `deserializeBinary()`: new SX_HOOK case creates blessed object, reads serialized - string and extra refs, then calls STORABLE_thaw to reconstitute. -- Impact: t/84serialize.t goes from 1 real failure to 0 real failures (115/115 real pass). - The `dclone_method` strategy now correctly chains: `deepClone` → `STORABLE_freeze` → - `nfreeze(handle)` → `serializeBinary` with hooks → compact 200-byte frozen data - (was 152KB without hooks, causing "Can't bless non-reference value" on thaw). -- Files changed: `Storable.java` - -**Step 5.56 (2026-04-02):** -- Fixed DBI sth Active flag lifecycle to match real DBI behavior -- `prepare()` now sets sth Active=false (was inheriting dbh's Active=true via setFromList) -- `execute()` sets Active=true only for SELECTs with result sets, false for DML -- `fetchrow_arrayref()` and `fetchrow_hashref()` set Active=false when no more rows -- `execute()` now closes previous JDBC ResultSet before re-executing (resource leak fix) -- Used mutable `new RuntimeScalar(false)` instead of read-only `scalarFalse` constant, - fixing "Modification of a read-only value attempted" in DBI.pm `finish()` -- Impact: t/60core.t goes from 50 failures (45 cached stmt + 5 GC) to 17 (12 cached + 5 GC) - The 33 fixed failures were: stale Active=true from prepare, DML leaving Active=true, - and exhausted cursors still showing Active=true -- Remaining 12 are SELECTs where cursor was opened but not fully consumed, needing DESTROY - to call finish() on scope exit -- Files changed: `DBI.java` -- Commit: `3de38f462` - -**Step 5.57 (2026-04-02) — Post-rebase regression fixes:** -- Fixed 6 post-rebase regressions in Perl test suite: - - **op/assignwarn.t** (116/116): Created `integerDivideWarn()` and `integerDivideAssignWarn()` - for uninitialized value warnings with `/=` under `use integer`. Root cause: bytecode - interpreter's `INTEGER_DIV_ASSIGN` called `integerDivide()` which used `getLong()` without - checking for undef. Updated both bytecode interpreter (`InlineOpcodeHandler.java`) and JVM - backend (`EmitBinaryOperator.java` + `OperatorHandler.java`). - - **op/while.t** test 26 (23/26): Added constant condition optimization to `do{}while/until` - loops. Three fixes: (1) `resolveConstantSubBoolean` now returns true for reference constants - without calling `getBoolean()` (which triggered overloaded `bool` at compile time); - (2) `getConstantConditionValue` handles `not`/`!` operators (used for `until` conditions); - (3) `emitDoWhile` checks for constant conditions in both JVM (`EmitStatement.java`) and - bytecode (`BytecodeCompiler.java`) backends. - - **op/vec.t** (74/78, matches master): Fixed unsigned 32-bit vec values by using `getLong()` - for both 32-bit and 64-bit widths.
