Summary

  • keep concrete generic monomorphizations distinct in StructId-based layout and descriptor caches
  • retain template identity for annotation metadata such as _immutable_fields_
  • skip empty shadow declarations when an exact field-bearing definition exists
  • add struct-layout and field-mint census diagnostics across the build/runtime boundary

Root cause

Multiple Rust spellings and generic instantiations could collapse onto the same StructId. Layouts were then inserted while iterating a HashMap, so the last spelling visited overwrote earlier size and offset data. The existing normalization only made the immutability axis consistent; concrete generic layout identity was still lost.

The fix separates template identity from physical layout identity: aliases continue to converge on the declared template, while balanced generic argument spellings derive a concrete instantiation ID.

Validation

  • cargo check -p majit-translate
  • cargo check --features dynasm
  • cargo test --features dynasm
  • MAJIT_STRUCT_LAYOUT_CENSUS=1 cargo build --release --features dynasm
    • struct_ids=11407
    • aliased_struct_ids=3995
    • conflicting_struct_ids=0
  • python3 pyre/check.py target/release/pyre-dynasm --backend dynasm --no-synthetic --no-cpython-suite
    • dynasm benchmarks and self-checks: 17/17 passed

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Improved generic type identity handling for more accurate layouts and field resolution.
    • Added diagnostics for layout variants, conflicting declarations, and descriptor generation.
    • Added optional tracing and census statistics for field, layout, and descriptor generation.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved handling of generic structures and consistently resolved field and constructor descriptors across equivalent type spellings.
  • Diagnostics

    • JIT statistics now include cache hits, layout sources, missing layouts, and descriptor-generation details.

Keep generic monomorphizations distinct in StructId-based layout and descriptor caches while retaining template identity for annotation metadata. Add layout and field-mint census diagnostics to verify that aliased spellings no longer overwrite incompatible layouts.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The change gives generic instantiations distinct StructId values, propagates concrete layout identities through MIR and descriptor creation, adds optional layout and field-mint diagnostics, and reports combined build-time and runtime census statistics.

Changes

Generic layout identity and propagation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Concrete generic layout identities
majit/majit-ir/src/descr.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/front/mir.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/lib.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/codewriter/assembler.rs
Generic struct and enum paths now preserve rendered arguments in physical layout identities. Aggregate and field descriptors use these identities, while template IDs remain available for template-based lookup. Tests cover distinct instantiations and balanced parsing.
Layout lookup and variant census
majit/majit-translate/src/lib.rs
Layout loading falls back to template IDs, skips incomplete shadow declarations, and optionally reports equivalent, conflicting, and aliased layout variants.

Descriptor census and runtime reporting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Descriptor mint diagnostics
majit/majit-ir/src/descr.rs, majit/majit-translate/src/codewriter/call.rs
Field, size, and EffectInfo minting now records cache disagreements, size provenance, shell transitions, owner lookup misses, and differing specifications. Optional tracing can emit mint details and backtraces.
Census artifact and runtime statistics
pyre/pyre-jit-trace/build.rs, pyre/pyre-jit-trace/src/jitcode_runtime.rs
Build output now serializes field_mint_census.bin. Runtime code loads the artifact and combines its counters with current runtime census data.

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

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to eb575

The PR changes how generic struct layouts are identified, but a current path may still use a template layout for concrete instantiations with different sizes or field offsets, risking incorrect field access and allocation sizes; this should be fixed or explicitly guarded before merge.

Poem

I hop through layouts, precise and bright,
Generic identities fit just right.
Counters bloom where descriptors mint,
Shells and offsets leave a trace-print.
Build and runtime share the view—
A carrot of data for every queue!

P1 Badge Fall back after a missing concrete layout

For a generic ADT whose concrete owner_id has not been inserted into struct_layouts, owner_id.or(registry_struct_id) selects that unresolved ID before performing the map lookup, so the available template layout is never tried. Production layout registration only iterates program.struct_fields spellings, and ordinary generic structs remain registered under their unsuffixed template names; their field accesses therefore fall back to the declaration-order offset accumulator. When #[repr(Rust)] reorders or packs such a struct, the generated JIT reads or writes the wrong byte offset instead of using Charon's exact layout. Look up the concrete ID first and then try the registry/template ID, or register every concrete ID before lowering.

1. Regressions to PyPy parity introduced by this patch

None.

2. Other mismatches introduced by this patch

  • majit/majit-translate/src/front/mir.rs:427,17003,17321 ↔ rpython/jit/backend/llsupport/symbolic.py:6-13 — concrete generic layout IDs are derived from rendered arguments that reduce named ADTs to their leaf (a::T and b::T both become T). Thus Outer<a::T> and Outer<b::T> can receive the same StructId, while PyPy memoizes offsets by the actual low-level STRUCT object, not a lossy display name.

  • majit/majit-translate/src/front/mir.rs:427,16687-16695 ↔ rpython/jit/backend/llsupport/symbolic.py:6-13 — the new physical-layout identity erases reference indirection: &T renders as T. Consequently distinct Rust instantiations such as Wrapper<T> and Wrapper<&T> can share a descriptor/layout key even when their field layout differs. PyPy’s get_field_token(STRUCT, ...) retains the concrete low-level field type.

  • majit/majit-translate/src/front/mir.rs:427,16997-17007 ↔ rpython/jit/backend/llsupport/symbolic.py:15-22concrete_adt_struct_id includes only generics.types; const generic arguments are omitted. Instantiations differing solely by a const parameter therefore collide despite potentially different size or offsets. PyPy’s size cache is keyed by the concrete low-level type object.

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

None.

4. Structural adaptations

  • majit/majit-ir/src/descr.rs:360-374 ↔ rpython/jit/backend/llsupport/descr.py:105-127 — using a Rust StructId/hash to stand in for PyPy’s live lltype.Struct object identity is a necessary implementation-language adaptation. It is sound only if the input identity is injective; the three lossy generic-argument cases above are not.

  • pyre/pyre-jit-trace/build.rs:1030-1041 ↔ rpython/jit/backend/llsupport/descr.py:218-239 — persisting the build-process descriptor census for runtime reporting is a source-translation process-boundary adaptation. PyPy creates and consumes descriptors in one translated runtime, so it has no corresponding artifact file.

Derive PartialEq for StructFieldLayout.

If StructFieldLayout gains a layout-relevant field, the manual predicate can omit it. Compare the slices directly with left == right.

Serialize a generation-local census

field_mint_census_snapshot() reads cumulative atomic counters. The in-process determinism check runs generate_into twice and compares field_mint_census.bin. Serialize a baseline-relative delta, or reset the counters before the second generation.

…_LAYOUT_CENSUS

pyrex's every_live_gate_has_a_triage_entry requires every MAJIT_* gate read
from the environment to have an entry in majit/gate-triage.md. Three were
missing: MAJIT_DECLINE_LOG (added on this branch by 'majit-translate: count
the lowering gates' silent declines') and MAJIT_FIELD_MINT_TRACE /
MAJIT_STRUCT_LAYOUT_CENSUS (brought in by the rebase, from 'majit: preserve
concrete generic struct layouts (#1193)').
