rewrite_op_getfield's except VirtualizableArrayField: handler ends in
return [] (jtransform.py:848-857): registering the base in
vable_array_vars is the whole rewrite. Porting that faithfully turned
out to need an upstream instruction the codewriter never emitted.

The first three commits are the follow-ups #1358's body listed.

The three #1358 follow-ups

A — to_optimizer_config's array_lengths: vec![] is not a missing seed.
Refuted. It is a placeholder its sole caller patches on the next line:
MetaInterp::current_virtualizable_optimizer_config fills it from
TraceCtx::virtualizable_array_lengths, and the sibling field
vable_input_offset right below it is the same shape with the same
convention already documented. A length is not a property of the shape —
upstream reads len(lst) off the live object every time it needs one
(virtualizable.py read_boxes, get_array_length) and stores it nowhere.

What was actually missing was the diagnosis if the patch is ever skipped:
VirtualizableTracker::init's zip runs zero times, no element state is
seeded, and tracked_array_element silently cannot hit. A debug_assert!
now names that state. Its two escapes are load-bearing (the state-field macro
JIT sets track_array_elements = false; an arrayless config has nothing to
seed) and a second test pins them.

B — _unpackiterable_known_length_jitlook must NOT carry unroll_safe.
Settled from upstream source, not inference. Upstream fences that body behind
two functions: unpackiterable_unpackiterable_known_length
(@jit.dont_look_inside) → _unpackiterable_known_length_jitlook
(@jit.unroll_safe). Only unpackiterable_unroll, whose expected_length is
an UNPACK_SEQUENCE oparg, calls the hinted body directly. pyre has neither the
shim nor unpackiterable_unroll, so unpackiterable is the body's only
caller — the path upstream keeps closed. Carrying the attribute alone inverts
that decision instead of matching it.

The doc comment quoting @jit.unroll_safe reads as an unfinished port and has
been picked up as one twice. tests/test_unroll_safe_inventory.rs makes
adding it fail with the reason. It is a subset check with a positive
control, not an equality check: a developer's build/llbc is routinely older
than the source, and a stale artefact must only be able to under-report.

C — is_iter_op_segments admits non-GC slices. A live defect, not a
latent one. iter_next_item_type answered Ref(None) for every non-range
iterator, so a for &v in slice over &[i64] typed its element as a GC
reference. charon-corpus's branch_loop_sum is exactly that shape and folds
today. The element type now rides from the Option<T> payload at the next
call site through next_call_results to the fold. Declining the fold for
non-GC slices — my first design — would have regressed a shape a test already
required.

arraylen_vable, and why the getfield could not be dropped alone

Dropping the getfield made fast2locals_assembles die in liveness:

variable_to_register: graph declared kind Ref for Variable(... id: 3797 ...)
but regallocs[Ref] has no coloring (other classes with a coloring: [])

That message means a variable is used but never defined. The user was
ArrayLen.

vable_array_vars has three consumers upstream, not two:

upstream pyre codewriter before this PR
rewrite_op_getarrayitem (jtransform.py:760) VableArrayRead
rewrite_op_setarrayitem (:794) VableArrayWrite
rewrite_op_getarraysize (:811) → arraylen_vable absent

So locals_w!(frame).len() stayed an arraylen_gc on the raw array
pointer
— the one route still needing the op the drop removes.
check_no_vable_array does not catch it: its four routes are link arg, fused
exitswitch, call arg and setfield, and an arraylen in the same block is none
of them.

arraylen_vable was already ported eight times over: the
arraylen_vable/rdd>i key in insns.rs (byte 74 assigned),
blackhole.rs's wire_handler, jitcode/mod.rs,
jitcode_dispatch/mod.rs, opimpl_arraylen_vable in pyjitpl.rs /
trace_ctx.rs / jitdriver.rs, bhimpl_arraylen_vable in
virtualizable.rs, MIFrame::read_vable_arraylen, and the macro lowering's
lower_vable_array_len. Only the codewriter path never reached it.

The port cost nine exhaustive matches the compiler lists, plus four tables
that fall through silently and had to be found by hand — type_state.rs,
format.rs, flowspace_adapter.rs (both name tables) and
legacy_resolve.rs. All four answer Int: a length is a Signed whatever
the element kind is.

item_ty on the len op has no honest per-access source, because arraylen_gc
carries no element type. Upstream passes vinfo's own arraydescr
(:816). vable_arraydescrof already asserts the block behind a
virtualizable array is a FixedObjectArray of word-wide PyObjectRefs, so
that is the element type, and vable_array_index_pair_at — which only
requires the pair be (VableArray, Array) and takes the length off the first
— accepts it.

Ordering is load-bearing. The drop is unsound without the port, so the
port is the earlier commit.

Gates

Run on base 712fc16c29b with freshly extracted LLBC, after a concurrent
rebase invalidated an earlier round taken against 1f7229aed9b:

  • cargo check -p pyre-jit-trace — green. build.rs calls generate_into
    with no catch_unwind, so a _check_no_vable_array escape or a missing
    assembler key is a hard build failure over the real interpreter.
  • cargo test --all --no-default-features --features dynasm — green.
  • cargo test --no-fail-fast --no-default-features --features cranelift,cpyext
    over the workflow's package list verbatim — green.
  • cargo fmt --all -- --check — clean.

Note on main's macOS red

cargo test (macos-latest) is red on main at 1f7229aed9b
(test_deadframe_exception_ref_survives_collection_after_execute_token,
INVALID encountered from cranelift). It passes here, in the same feature set
and package list, on darwin-arm64. That is not an acquittal of that commit —
this branch's base is three commits later. Worth recording: since that red,
seven main runs were cancelled and 712fc16c29b has been queued without a
verdict, so nothing at or after the red commit has a completed CI answer.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The changes add VableArrayLen support, lower virtualizable-array len() operations, source array state from the live virtualizable shadow, preserve iterator element types during rewiring, and add unroll_safe inventory checks.

Changes

Virtualizable array handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Virtualizable array tracking contract
majit/majit-metainterp/src/optimizeopt/virtualize.rs, majit/majit-metainterp/src/virtualizable.rs, majit/majit-metainterp/src/pyjitpl.rs
The tracker removes array-seeding configuration. Array state now comes from the tracer’s live shadow. Identity and static-field tracking remain.
Virtualizable array length lowering
majit/majit-translate/src/codewriter/jtransform.rs
Virtualizable array lengths lower to Live plus VableArrayLen. Redundant raw field reads are removed when lowering is enabled. Escape validation covers surviving operation operands.
VableArrayLen integration and emission
majit/majit-translate/src/model.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/codewriter/*, majit/majit-translate/src/front/result_exc.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/inline.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/translator/rtyper/*
The operation is integrated into operands, remapping, purity, diagnostics, result typing, and assembler emission. Tests verify the arraylen_vable/rdd>i wire shape.
Snapshot and dispatch validation
majit/majit-metainterp/src/trace_ctx.rs, majit/majit-metainterp/src/pyjitpl/dispatch.rs, pyre/pyre-jit-trace/src/jitcode_dispatch/tests.rs, pyre/pyre-jit-trace/src/state.rs
Virtualizable snapshots reject untyped entries. Vable array accesses reject indexes without concrete values. Comments document loop-close shadow handling.

Iterator element-type preservation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Iterator type recording and extraction
majit/majit-translate/src/front/mir.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/front/result_exc.rs
MIR lowering extracts Option payload types, unwraps type wrappers, preserves element-owned references, and records types with iterator results.
Typed native next rewiring
majit/majit-translate/src/front/iter_next.rs, majit/majit-translate/tests/test_mir_frontend.rs, majit/charon-corpus/src/lib.rs, majit/majit-charon-reader/tests/corpus.rs
Native next operations use recorded element types. Tests cover range, scalar, slice-reference, and array-reference iterators.

Unroll-safe inventory validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Unroll-safe hint inventory
majit/majit-translate/tests/test_unroll_safe_inventory.rs, pyre/pyre-interpreter/src/baseobjspace.rs
Tests inventory shipped unroll_safe hints and reject unreviewed or unsupported unpacking hints. Comments document the intentional omission from the unpacking function.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2e8f9

The PR adds virtualizable-array length handling and iterator type propagation while removing the old getfield path. Unresolved correctness issues may leave non-reference slots with invalid runtime state or emit an unsupported array-length opcode, potentially causing JIT failures or incorrect execution; merge should wait for owner resolution.

P2 Badge Preserve nested references when deriving iterator item types

When iterating a container whose elements are themselves references, such as &[&i64], the next() payload is Option<&&i64>, but strip_ty_wrappers recursively removes both Ref layers and records the result as Int. Only the outer reference added by the slice iterator should be peeled; the inner &i64 is the list item and must remain reference-typed. Otherwise [__iter_next] places a pointer in the integer register bank, causing kind mismatches or incorrect generated code for these loops.

P2 Badge Honor lower_virtualizable before dropping the array field read

When GraphTransformConfig supplies vable_arrays but sets lower_virtualizable to false, FieldRead still enters this unconditional helper and is now deleted here, while the guarded ArrayRead, ArrayWrite, and ArrayLen arms remain unchanged. A same-block array consumer consequently references the removed result and reaches regalloc/assembly with an undefined variable. Gate the virtualizable-array tracking/drop on lower_virtualizable, as the consumer rewrites already are.

`rewrite_op_getfield` runs whether or not `lower_virtualizable` is set,
because the quasi-immutable tail below it does not depend on virtualizable
lowering. Its two virtualizable arms do. With `vable_arrays` set and the flag
off, the array arm registered a base no consumer would read and dropped a read
those consumers still referenced, leaving regalloc an undefined variable.

`strip_ty_wrappers` peels `Ref` repeatedly, so an iterator over `&[&i64]`
recorded its `Option<&&i64>` payload as `Int` and put a pointer in the integer
register bank. `iterator_payload_element` peels the one reference the iterator
adds and leaves the element's own.

Also: require `array_lengths.len() == array_field_offsets.len()` rather than
non-emptiness, since the zip truncates a short vector silently; pin the
`arraylen_vable/rdd>i` wire shape and its descr pair; and fail the unroll_safe
inventory when two harvested paths share a leaf, which is the assumption it
matches on.

All five findings were valid and are fixed in 9dfadd2e3f2. The two P2s were
regressions this PR introduced, and both are now pinned by tests.

Codex — honor lower_virtualizable before dropping the array field read.
Correct, and it is the same failure this PR's own arraylen_vable commit
exists to prevent — I hit it as an uncolored-Ref panic in fast2locals and
then reintroduced it through a different door. rewrite_op_getfield is the one
member of the family that runs ungated, and the dispatch comment says why: the
quasi-immutable -live- + record_quasiimmut_field tail does not depend on
virtualizable lowering. Its two virtualizable arms do, and the field's own doc
covers "field/array accesses" — both. Gated both on
self.config.lower_virtualizable, not just the array arm, so the scalar arm
stops disagreeing with rewrite_op_setfield at the same time.
a_vable_array_read_is_kept_when_virtualizable_lowering_is_off pins it;
reverting the gate makes it fail.

Codex — preserve nested references when deriving iterator item types.
Correct. strip_ty_wrappers peels Ref in a loop, so Option<&&i64> came
back as i64. Worse, it is a regression: before this PR the non-range arm
answered Ref(None) unconditionally, so &[&i64] happened to be right, and my
change put that pointer in the integer register bank — the exact inversion of
the defect the commit was fixing. New iterator_payload_element strips the
pure indirection wrappers (Deduplicated, HashConsedValue), peels exactly
the one Ref the slice iterator adds, and stops. A payload that is not a Ref
is already the element, which keeps by-value iterators ([i64; N], Vec<i64>)
answering Int.

CodeRabbit — validate the complete parallel-array invariant. Taken. The
assertion checked non-emptiness, which only catches the loudest case; zip
pairs what it can and drops the rest, so a short vector seeds some arrays and
silently leaves the others untracked. It now requires
array_lengths.len() == array_field_offsets.len() and reports both counts plus
how many the zip would actually pair. The array_field_offsets.is_empty()
escape is subsumed by the equality. Added
a_partial_array_lengths_vector_is_named_not_truncated (two fields, one
length). I did not add the same check on the virtualizable.rs side: that
site is to_optimizer_config's documented placeholder, which is supposed to
be short until its sole caller patches it, so asserting there would fire on the
intended state.

CodeRabbit — regression test for the VableArrayLen wire shape. Added
assemble_vable_arraylen_emits_the_rdd_to_i_wire_shape. It drives the whole
pipeline and asserts arraylen_vable/rdd>i, that no arraylen_gc survives,
that the VableArray descr precedes the Array descr, and that the array
descr carries the flat-word base / word itemsize / len_offset = Some(0) /
pointer-items shape MIFrame::read_vable_arraylen decodes against.

CodeRabbit — detect leaf-name collisions. Added, in the shape suggested.
The file's whole purpose is failing loudly on an unreviewed hint, and matching
by leaf on an unverified uniqueness assumption is the one way it could pass on
another function's review.

Gates after the fixes: cargo test -p majit-translate green (lib 3241 → 3243),
cargo test -p majit-metainterp --features dynasm --lib optimizeopt::virtualize
65 passed, cargo fmt --all -- --check clean.

P2 Badge Preserve references yielded by owning iterators

The single-reference peel fixes borrowed slices, but it also strips the element itself for owning iterators admitted by is_concrete_iter_constructor: Vec<&i64>::into_iter() and [&i64; N]::into_iter() return Option<&i64> with no iterator-added outer reference. This records Int instead of Ref, so the rewritten [__iter_next] places the yielded pointer in the integer register bank. Distinguish borrowed slice iterators from by-value iterators before removing this reference.

9194-9213: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Handle by-value reference items separately.

is_concrete_iter_constructor normalizes Vec<T>, arrays, and Box<[T]> by-value into_iter() calls to core::slice::iter. For Vec<&T>::into_iter(), the next() payload is Option<&T>, but iterator_payload_element removes that Ref as if it came from borrowing iteration. This records the pointee type and can select the wrong register bank.

Preserve the item Ref for by-value iterators and add a regression test.

`rewrite_op_getfield` runs whether or not `lower_virtualizable` is set,
because the quasi-immutable tail below it does not depend on virtualizable
lowering. Its two virtualizable arms do. With `vable_arrays` set and the flag
off, the array arm registered a base no consumer would read and dropped a read
those consumers still referenced, leaving regalloc an undefined variable.

`strip_ty_wrappers` peels `Ref` repeatedly, so an iterator over `&[&i64]`
recorded its `Option<&&i64>` payload as `Int` and put a pointer in the integer
register bank. `iterator_payload_element` peels the one reference the iterator
adds and leaves the element's own.

Also: require `array_lengths.len() == array_field_offsets.len()` rather than
non-emptiness, since the zip truncates a short vector silently; pin the
`arraylen_vable/rdd>i` wire shape and its descr pair; and fail the unroll_safe
inventory when two harvested paths share a leaf, which is the assumption it
matches on.

Rebased onto 39d57244d31 and force-pushed. All four findings from the second
review round are fixed in 14dc6371760.

The Codex P2 was the mirror image of the previous round's fix

The last round's peel stopped &[&i64] from putting a pointer in the integer
bank. It did so unconditionally, and the by-value iterators
is_concrete_iter_constructor admits have no iterator-added reference to peel:
alloc::vec::into_iter::IntoIter and core::array::iter::IntoIter yield
Option<T>, so that one reference was the element's own — the same defect,
pointing the other way.

The next() receiver names the iterator ADT, so the decision reads that
instead of guessing from the payload's shape. Only core::slice::iter::Iter
and IterMut peel.

Two corpus fixtures carry both shapes, and each direction is red-checked:

arm slice_of_refs_sum (&[&i64]) array_of_refs_sum ([&i64; 3]) branch_loop_sum (&[i64])
peel always ok Int — pointer in int bank ok
never peel ok ok Ref — int in ref bank
receiver-keyed ok ok ok

No fixed answer passes all three, which is why the receiver has to be read.
Regenerating corpus.ullbc showed no format drift; only the local-fn count
assertion moved (14 → 16).

The other three

  • body.code decode — valid; the pool order only said which descr was
    minted first. Red-checked by swapping the expected indexes (left: 0, right: 1).
  • Scalar-field gate test — valid, added.
  • CONTROL guard ordering — valid, the collision check now runs after it.

One addition beyond the review

check_no_vable_array enumerated four operand positions. Since this PR drops
the getfield behind a virtualizable array, "every consumer lowers to the
vable form" became load-bearing with nothing checking it — and this PR has
already been bitten by that invariant twice, each time surfacing as an
uncoloured register in regalloc rather than as the missing read.

A fifth route, "surviving operation operand", scans every operand of every
operation the block kept. This is safe to assert rather than warn because
nothing between transform and regalloc prunes dead operations, so a
surviving operand always reaches regalloc anyway — the catch-all cannot fire
on a graph that would otherwise have compiled. The function's own doc already
recorded why enumeration is the wrong shape here (_check_stack_index escaped
by the one route its test did not look at).

While investigating I also settled a gap I had previously reported as open:
_handle_list_call carries no vable_array_vars check and is owed none.
Upstream splits on resizable and puts the check only on the
do_fixed_list_* arms, whose receiver is a GcArray; every spelling pyre
ports is of the resizable family with a W_ListObject receiver. That
reasoning is now recorded on the function.

Verification

  • cargo test --all --no-default-features --features dynasm8027 passed,
    159 suites, 0 failed
    , checked against the full log rather than a tail.
  • cargo test -p majit-translate lib 3243 → 3245; optimizeopt::virtualize
    65; majit-charon-reader green.
  • LLBC re-extracted at the new base and reported current.

P1 Badge Read array lengths from the addressed frame

When this instruction targets a nonstandard virtualizable—such as an inlined callee frame whose locals array has a different length from the portal frame—the fallback in TraceCtx::vable_arraylen_vable records a heap GETFIELD_GC_R/ARRAYLEN_GC, but pyjitpl/dispatch.rs lines 4900-4904 still stamps the destination's concrete value from the single standard frame's virtualizable_array_lengths[array_idx]. The tracer can therefore choose branches using the root frame's length while the recorded operation will produce the callee frame's length at runtime, yielding an invalid trace; the new lowering makes that previously unreachable arraylen_vable path live. Preserve the concrete result of the addressed nonstandard frame rather than substituting the standard-frame shadow.

…ed in

`to_optimizer_config` builds `VirtualizableConfig` with `array_lengths:
vec![]` and relies on its caller to fill them in:
`MetaInterp::current_virtualizable_optimizer_config` assigns
`ctx.virtualizable_array_lengths()` one line later, beside the identical patch
of `vable_input_offset`.  That sibling field documents the convention on
itself; `array_lengths` did not.  A length is not a property of the shape —
upstream reads `len(lst)` off the live object in every `virtualizable.py`
accessor and stores it nowhere.

`VirtualizableTracker::init` zips `array_field_offsets` with `array_lengths`,
so a config that declares an array field and carries no length runs that loop
zero times, leaves `state.arrays` empty, and turns every later
`tracked_array_element` into a miss that reads as "this trace had no array
elements".  The `debug_assert!` names that state instead of absorbing it.

Both escapes in the assertion are load-bearing: the state-field macro JIT sets
`track_array_elements = false` and carries its elements through the live
`virtualizable_boxes` shadow, and a virtualizable with no array field has
nothing to seed.

`array_tracking_config_without_lengths_is_named_not_absorbed` has to build the
state by hand, which is itself the statement that no production path produces
it: both writers of `TraceCtx::virtualizable_boxes` set the lengths in the
same statement, `state.rs seed_virtualizable_boxes` passes `vec![array_len]`
on the portal and bridge paths, and
`optimizer_vable_config_matches_registered_virtualizable_when_boxes_active`
already pins the patched result.

…no unroll_safe

The doc comment quotes upstream's `@jit.unroll_safe` along with the body it
ports, which reads as an unfinished port.  It is not one.  Upstream reaches
that body two ways and hints only one of them: `unpackiterable` goes through
`_unpackiterable_known_length`, which is `@jit.dont_look_inside` ("the JIT
stopped looking inside already"), while `unpackiterable_unroll` calls it
directly with an UNPACK_SEQUENCE oparg as `expected_length`.

pyre has neither `unpackiterable_unroll` nor the shim, so `unpackiterable` is
this body's only caller — the one upstream fences off.  Being loopy and
unhinted the graph is rejected by `look_inside_graph` and stays a residual
call, which is the boundary the shim buys upstream.  Carrying the attribute
alone would open that path, with `expected_length` — a red argument on one
graph ~40 callers share — as the unroll bound.

Restoring the split needs more than the attribute:
`#[majit_macros::dont_look_inside]` registers a helper call descriptor, and
`helper_call_kind_for_type` answers `Unsupported` for this signature's
`Result<Vec<PyObjectRef>, PyError>`, so the shim needs an
`extern "C" fn(..) -> i64` publication first.

`test_unroll_safe_inventory` asserts the harvested `unroll_safe` set is a
subset of a reviewed list, plus a named negative for this body.  Subset rather
than equality because a developer's `build/llbc` is routinely older than the
source and can only under-report, which must not red; `builtins::
leading_non_null_count` is the positive control, and its absence skips the
test loudly rather than passing on an artefact too old to say anything.

`iter_next_item_type` answered `Int` for a container produced by
`front::range_iter`'s `range()` builtin and `Ref` for every other one.  The
`iter` op carries the iterator, not the container's item type, and a slice of
non-GC items is spelled exactly like a slice of references —
`is_concrete_iter_constructor` collapses `Vec<T>`, `[T; N]` and `Box<[T]>`
onto the same `core::slice::…::iter`.  So the container alone could not
separate them.

`charon-corpus`'s `branch_loop_sum(slice: &[i64], ..)` folds `for &v in
slice`, and its `i64` element was typed as a GC reference.

`result_ty` is not a hint the rtyper overrules: `resolve_call_result_kind`
consults `concretetype` only when `result_ty` is `Unknown`, and
`authoritative_result_types` stamps the derived kind back over it, so the
answer here outranks the rtyper for every graph that gets a JitCode.

The recording site already reads a callee's `Result` payload for
`result_exc_call_results`; `next_call_results` now carries the `Option<T>`
payload the same way, with the `&` a slice iterator adds peeled off by
`strip_ty_wrappers`.  `Ref(Some(root))` normalises back to `Ref(None)` so
every GC-element graph that folds today stamps a byte-identical `result_ty`,
and the range arm answers before the recorded type is consulted, because
`rrange.py ll_rangenext_*` returns `Signed` whatever the Rust range spells.
An unreadable `Option` shape falls back to `Ref(None)`, the answer the fold
assumed unconditionally before.

`branch_loop_sum_next_yields_an_int_element` fails on the previous behaviour
with `left: [Ref(None)], right: [Int]`.

`rewrite_op_getarraysize` (`jtransform.py:808-817`) is the third consumer
of `vable_array_vars`, alongside `rewrite_op_getarrayitem` and
`rewrite_op_setarrayitem`.  The codewriter had the other two and answered
a `len()` over a virtualizable array with a plain `arraylen_gc` on the
raw array pointer.

Adds `OpKind::VableArrayLen`, the `rewrite_op_getarraysize` arm, and the
assembler encoding for the `arraylen_vable/rdd>i` key that
`insns.rs`, `blackhole.rs`, `opimpl_arraylen_vable` and
`bhimpl_arraylen_vable` already carried.  The macro lowering
(`majit-macros` `lower_vable_array_len`) emitted the instruction; the
codewriter path did not.

Assisted-by: Claude
`rewrite_op_getfield`'s `except VirtualizableArrayField:` handler ends in
`return []` (`jtransform.py:848-857`): registering the base in
`vable_array_vars` is the whole rewrite.  The port kept the op, so a
`getfield_gc_r` of the array pointer stayed in the jitcode and fell
through to the immutability-rank rewrite below.

All three consumers now answer against the vable base, so the read has
no user left.

…e arms

Two of the new match arms landed at the wrong column; `cargo fmt` leaves
them alone because it bails on the enclosing `match` in both files.

The descr-pair comments named `expect_matching_vable_array_descrs`, which
is `pyre-jit`'s assembler.  The runtime that decodes the emitted
`arraylen_vable/rdd>i` is `MIFrame::vable_array_index_pair_at`.

…pes by any route

`iterator_payload_element` peeled one reference off every `next()` payload.  A
slice iterator adds that reference, but the by-value iterators
`is_concrete_iter_constructor` admits do not: `alloc::vec::into_iter::IntoIter`
and `core::array::iter::IntoIter` yield `Option<T>`, so the payload is the
element already.  `Vec<&i64>` and `[&i64; N]` therefore recorded their `&i64`
element as `Int` and put a pointer in the integer register bank -- the mirror
image of the `&[&i64]` defect the peel was added for.  The `next()` receiver
names the iterator ADT; peel only for `core::slice::iter::Iter` / `IterMut`.

`slice_of_refs_sum` and `array_of_refs_sum` carry both shapes in the corpus.
Peeling unconditionally fails the first, never peeling fails
`branch_loop_sum_next_yields_an_int_element`; no fixed answer passes both.

`check_no_vable_array` enumerated four operand positions.  Registering a
variable in `vable_array_vars` drops the `getfield` that defined it, and
nothing prunes dead operations between `transform` and regalloc, so any
operand a kept operation still names is a variable used and never defined.
A fifth route scans every operand of every operation the block kept; it
reports last and least precisely, and it exists because the four are an
enumeration.

`_handle_list_call` carries no `vable_array_vars` check and is owed none:
upstream splits on `resizable`, putting the check on the `do_fixed_list_*`
arms whose receiver is a `GcArray`, and every spelling pyre ports is of the
resizable family with a `W_ListObject` receiver.

Also: decode the assembled bytes in the `arraylen_vable` wire-shape test
rather than only the descr pool order; exercise `lower_virtualizable = false`
on the scalar-field arm as well as the array arm; and run the unroll_safe
leaf-collision check after the CONTROL guard, so a stale artefact is skipped
rather than judged.

`VableArrayIndexNotConcrete` and `GuardSnapshotVableUntyped` had no tests.
Neither fires on the synth corpus (0 across the 374 fixtures that trace,
where `VableEscapedDuringResidualCall` takes 123).

- `array_vable_handlers_with_unpinned_index_surface_index_not_concrete`
  drives `getarrayitem_vable_i` / `setarrayitem_vable_i` with a seeded vable
  ref and an index register holding no concrete value.
- `an_untyped_virtualizable_box_is_not_snapshot_buildable` pins
  `TraceCtx::vable_snapshot_buildable` over an absent box list, an all-typed
  list, and an untyped entry in each of the two positions
  `build_vable_snapshot_boxes` reads separately.
- `build_vable_snapshot_boxes_panics_on_an_untyped_{identity,entry}` pin the
  two `.expect()` calls that predicate keeps unreachable.

Assisted-by: Claude
Both loop-close arms carry the tracer's live `virtualizable_boxes` shadow
into the JUMP as `[reds..., virtualizable_boxes[..-1]]`: the macro
state-field JIT through `JitState::collect_jump_args_with_boxes`, PyFrame
through `jitcode_dispatch::append_virtualizable_boxes`. PyFrame reaches
the second only — nothing under `pyre/` produces `TraceAction::CloseLoop`,
so its `collect_jump_args_with_boxes` override is not called in
production; note that where the override is defined.

`elements_carried_via_shadow` classified PyFrame as not shadow-carried and
kept `track_array_elements` on for it, so `VirtualizableTracker::init`
seeded element state from the trace-entry input args. Remove that seeding,
along with `VirtualizableConfig::track_array_elements`,
`::array_lengths` and the length patch in
`current_virtualizable_optimizer_config`. The standard-path read answers
from the shadow and records no op (`vable_getarrayitem_*_checked`,
pyjitpl.py:1170-1184), and the tracer updates the shadow through
`set_virtualizable_entry_at` without recording one, so a seeded element
box had nothing to fold against and could go stale.

Measured before removal: check.py dynasm 434/434, zero jit-stats counters
moved.

Replace the three tests that pinned the removed length assertion with one
that pins what `ensure_setup` still owes — the identity
`PtrInfo::Virtualizable` install — and state in the tracker's doc which
parts remain and what retiring them would require.

Also check `set_virtualizable_entry_at`'s documented precondition against
`virtualizable_slot_type` instead of only stating it: a non-Ref value in
a Ref slot decodes to NULL through `value_as_ref_bits`.

Use a type-compatible unknown-concrete representation.

vable_setfield stores Value::Ref(GcRef::NO_CONCRETE) when concrete is None at Line 4431. For an Int or Float slot, this new assertion panics in debug builds. Release builds still retain the invalid value because debug_assert! is disabled.

Represent an unknown value with a slot-independent state, such as Value::Void where consumers support it, or migrate virtualizable_values to Option<Value> before enforcing this invariant.

This loop calls crate::inline::op_variable_refs(&op.kind) for every operation in every block, before check_no_vable_array gets a chance to short-circuit on self.vable_array_vars.is_empty(). The two existing checks above it (fused exitswitch, link arguments) avoid this cost because they pass borrowed iterators over data the block already owns; this new loop instead builds a fresh operands collection per operation regardless of whether there is anything to check it against.

vable_array_vars is non-empty only in the (relatively rare) blocks that read a virtualizable array field, so for the common case this collects operand lists that are immediately discarded. Since this runs once per operation across the entire translated program, guard the loop on the same emptiness check check_no_vable_array already performs internally.

♻️ Proposed fix to skip the loop when nothing is tracked

-                    operands.iter(),
-                    graph_name,
-                    "surviving operation operand",
-                );
-            }

Guard the per-operation loop around check_no_vable_array with a
self.vable_array_vars emptiness check, so crate::inline::op_variable_refs is not
called when no virtualizable array variables are tracked. Preserve the existing
operand validation behavior when the set is non-empty.

1. Regressions to PyPy parity introduced by this patch

None.

2. Other mismatches introduced by this patch

None.

3. Pre-existing mismatches (already present before this patch)

  • pyre/pyre-jit-trace/src/trace_opcode.rs:690-711 ↔ rpython/jit/metainterp/pyjitpl.py:1236-1246 — Pyre can retain an unboxed Int/Float only as an OpRef for a Ref-typed virtualizable slot, whereas PyPy writes a boxed object into virtualizable_boxes. This can make a later Ref vable read observe null. The issue predates this patch: upstream/main already documents it in majit/majit-metainterp/src/trace_ctx.rs:3029-3042; this patch only adds a debug assertion.

4. Structural adaptations

  • majit/majit-translate/src/front/mir.rs:9213-9240 ↔ rpython/rtyper/lltypesystem/rlist.py:453-482 — Rust iterator lowering must recover T from Option<T> / Option<&T> and distinguish slice iterators from by-value iterators before mapping it to RPython’s list-item representation. This is a fundamental Rust compiler/iterator-desugaring adaptation, not an opcode mismatch.

  • pyre/pyre-interpreter/src/baseobjspace.rs:14053-14080 ↔ pypy/interpreter/baseobjspace.py:1026-1065 — Pyre intentionally omits PyPy’s unroll_safe on _unpackiterable_known_length_jitlook: Pyre lacks PyPy’s dont_look_inside shim and direct unrolling caller, and its aggregate helper ABI cannot publish that shim yet. The resulting residual-call boundary matches PyPy’s normal caller path.
