Keep the deferred MemoryError on the collecting thread
When a safepoint-driven collection breaches the limit in a free-threaded process, this sets a process-global bit; the collection's StwGuard resumes the other mutators before the collecting evaluator calls take_memory_error(), so another thread can consume the bit first and receive an unrelated MemoryError. The thread whose collection exhausted the heap then continues, potentially reaching the fatal second breach. Store the pending exception on the collecting mutator or otherwise preserve its ownership through delivery.

Route eligible large allocations through the young allocator
This new allocator is never called by production code: a repo-wide search finds only its three unit-test invocations, while alloc_with_type_slow still sends every object above large_object_threshold directly to alloc_in_oldgen_clear. Consequently ordinary large objects never enter young_rawmalloced_objects, are reported as generation 2, and cannot be reclaimed by the next minor as PyPy's malloc_fixedsize/malloc_varsize external_malloc(..., alloc_young=True) paths require. Wire eligible large allocations through this method, retaining born-old handling for the excluded types.

Suppress the collect-step hook for deferred OOM
When reserving_size == 0, this arm signals OOM only via the breaker bit and leaves oom_pending unchanged. After returning, major_collection_step therefore passes its self.oom_pending == oom_was_pending check and calls fire_gc_collect_step, even though the adjacent logic explicitly models upstream's immediate raise before that hook. Programs that catch the deferred MemoryError consequently observe a spurious collect-step callback/stat transition; propagate an OOM outcome that suppresses the hook for both delivery channels.

Free pending young raw allocations on drop
If an OldGen is dropped before its next minor collection, every block appended here leaks: OldGen::drop drains old_rawmalloced_objects and raw_malloc_might_sweep, but not young_rawmalloced_objects. This already occurs in the new finalizer-routing unit test, which leaves its young block unswept, and would affect any embedder that tears down a collector with pending young raw allocations; drain and deallocate this list during destruction as well.

Re-extract .ullbc files before rebuilding the prepass
Because pyre/pyre-jit/src/eval.rs is interpreter-source Rust, run python3 scripts/extract-llbc.py, then rebuild pyre-jit-trace with PYRE_RTYPER_VERBOSE=1. The prepass reads .ullbc files under build/llbc/, so it cannot see this change until extraction completes.

Keep non-moving allocations in the young rawmalloc generation
Route this case through the young rawmalloc allocator rather than the new born-old helper: PyPy's IncrementalMiniMarkGC.malloc_fixed_or_varsize_nonmovable explicitly calls external_malloc(..., alloc_young=True). “Non-moving” guarantees address stability, not survival past a minor; this split instead makes production non-moving objects such as JIT-allocated instances survive until a major collection and permanently excludes them from the generation introduced by this change. If pyre's unrooted raw-pointer sites require extra protection, root those live references as the translated upstream path does rather than changing the object's generation.

Do not suppress another thread's heap-limit breach
When thread A still owns a deferred MemoryError, this process-wide check also suppresses a breach driven by thread B. After A's STW guard resumes the other mutators but before A reaches take_memory_error(), B can complete an over-limit nursery allocation; this arm returns without setting B's oom_pending, so that allocation succeeds. If A is not scheduled promptly, other threads can repeatedly bypass the configured heap limit. Test pending ownership for the current collection/thread rather than treating any owner's breaker bit as this breach's undelivered exception.

Suppress the hook when returning around an owed OOM
When do_collect_full completes another cycle before the deferred exception is delivered, this early return leaves oom_signalled_this_step false because major_collection_step reset it at entry. The caller therefore still executes fire_gc_collect_step, although upstream's immediate MemoryError would have unwound before that hook. Fresh evidence in this revision is the new owed-error early-return arm, which bypasses the new hook-suppression flag; mark this step as suppressed before returning.

Park for STW before delivering the deferred exception
When another thread requests STW after this thread's heap-limit breach but before its next plain-evaluator dispatch, both breaker bits can be set. This branch consumes the error and enters handle_exception before the safepoint_poll below; that exception path can allocate (as the JIT twin explicitly notes), while quiesce_mutators is waiting for this running mutator to park, so the free-threaded process can stall instead of completing the collection. Match the JIT loop's ordering and service EB_STW before constructing or dispatching the deferred exception.

…ocation is waiting incminimark.py `major_collection_step` raises MemoryError when a bounded major collection leaves the heap over `max_heap_size`, and the exception unwinds through whichever driver ran the collection. pyre recorded that event in `oom_pending`, which only the two collecting nursery allocators read. Every other driver dropped it: an explicit `gc.collect()`, a finalizer run, and the dispatch-loop safepoint, which is where the interpreter path's major collections happen. Under `--heapsize` or `PYPY_GC_MAX` the first breach was therefore silent and the first user-visible effect was the second breach's `using too much memory, aborting`. Add `EB_MEMORY_ERROR` to the eval-breaker word, in `JIT_BREAKER_MASK`, armed in the breach arm and consumed by both dispatch loops, which raise through `handle_exception` so the running frame's handler sees it. `reserving_size` selects the channel: it is the size of the allocation waiting on the collection and is nonzero for exactly the two collecting allocators. Arming both would leave the undelivered one latched onto the next breach — an `oom_pending` no allocation was waiting for is taken by an unrelated later allocation and fails it. The dispatch loops read the breaker word rather than the copy loaded at the top of the dispatch: the safepoint arms the bit after that load, and `eval_loop_jit` reaches the seam with the bit set once. The added integration test asserts that the limit becomes a Python exception, not that a program survives one; after the first breach the live set is at the limit, so whether a handler fits in the remaining headroom varies non-monotonically with the limit. Assisted-by: Claude
Objects over `large_object_threshold` reach `alloc_in_oldgen_clear` and return ahead of the point where a nursery allocation consults `oom_pending`, so the existing cases -- which allocate 8 KiB objects -- do not exercise that path. Adds a case allocating 2000 objects of 160 KiB under the same limit, on both dispatch loops, with its own unbounded control. `run` is split into `run_shape`, which takes the object size and count. Assisted-by: Claude
…ered incminimark's `major_collection_step` sets `max_heap_size_already_raised` immediately before `raise MemoryError`, so the flag reads as "the program has already been given its exception" and the fatal rung below it can only be a second arrival. Pyre arms a channel and returns instead, so the flag and the delivery come apart; a breach that lands in between now returns without taking the rung. `do_collect_full` completes two cycles with no dispatch between them, so an explicit `gc.collect()` on a heap at its limit reached the rung with the exception from the first cycle still armed. Both channels clear as they deliver, so `oom_pending || memory_error_armed()` is the test. `bounded_max_heap_size_signals_oom_then_aborts` now takes `oom_pending` between its two breaches, which is what the waiting allocation does when the collection returns. heap_limit_memory_error.rs asserted that the interpreter's own traceback printer reached stderr. That printer is a handler running on a heap at its limit: `eprint_exception` buffers the whole report and writes nothing until it is complete, and for a `-c` program `read_registered_source_line` fetches each frame's line through app-level linecache, whose nested dispatch loop's first safepoint runs `do_collect_oldgen_nonmoving` — a whole major cycle. The abort unwinds out of the half-built buffer, so stderr carried no traceback at all on all three CI hosts while the exception itself was raised, delivered and handled. The scripts now catch MemoryError, drop the live set and print a marker, and the arms assert that marker and a successful exit. Assisted-by: Claude
The handler's `print('caught')` reached a pipe, so it was block buffered
and discarded when a later breach aborted the process. Freeing the live
set first does not avoid the later breach: dropping it only makes it
collectable, and an in-flight cycle that already marked it sweeps
nothing. `os._exit(17)` writes nothing and allocates nothing beyond the
call, and the assertion moves to the child's exit status.
Assisted-by: Claude
…pped `OldGen::drop` drained `old_rawmalloced_objects` and `raw_malloc_might_sweep` but not `young_rawmalloced_objects`, so a teardown between a young rawmalloc birth and the minor that would sweep it leaked every block on that list. Assisted-by: Claude
`major_collection_step` suppressed `fire_gc_collect_step` by comparing `oom_pending` across the step, which reads only the allocation channel: a breach with no allocation waiting arms the eval-breaker bit instead and fired the hook. Record the arming in `oom_signalled_this_step` and gate on that, so both channels answer alike. Assisted-by: Claude
…rmed it `EB_MEMORY_ERROR` is process-global, and a stop-the-world collection resumes the other mutators before the collecting one returns to its dispatch loop, so any thread could take the exception. `set_memory_error` now marks the calling thread and counts the owers; `take_memory_error` delivers only to a marked thread and clears the bit when the last one does. `memory_error_armed` keeps reading the process-wide summary, which is what the max-heap fatal rung asks about. The max-heap collector tests each normalise the bit before they run, and a normalising call no longer clears one another thread armed, so they take a lock. Assisted-by: Claude
The `except MemoryError` handler lost the race on macOS and windows: the exception object's own allocation re-arms the collection request, and the next safepoint breaches again before `os._exit` returns, so the child died at the fatal rung with nothing reported. A `-c` program was why the handler was there. Its filename is `<string>`, so `frame_source_line` falls past `read_source_line` into `read_registered_source_line`, which calls app-level `linecache` — a nested dispatch loop whose safepoint drives a whole major cycle, and the abort unwinds out of the half-built report buffer. Named by path, the filesystem branch answers and no Python runs between the raise and the write, so the traceback reaches stderr ahead of whatever the process does next. The scripts carry no handler and the assertion reads stderr. Assisted-by: Claude
The max-heap ladder read the process-wide `EB_MEMORY_ERROR` summary to decide whether a breach repeated an exception already owed. An exception owed to another thread says nothing about this collection, so a breach that thread never caused was silenced and its allocation ran on past the limit. `memory_error_owed_here` asks the thread-local instead, and a breach with nothing owed here now arms this thread rather than returning. The fatal rung keeps the process-wide read: it must not end the process while any thread is still to be told. The same-arrival return also stands for a raise upstream makes, so it suppresses the collect-step hook too. Assisted-by: Claude
…oryError Both breaker bits can be armed at once — this thread's own heap-limit breach and another thread's STW request. The plain evaluator delivered the exception first, so `handle_exception` ran Python and allocated through a world the collector had asked to stop. The JIT loop already parks first; this puts the two in the same order. Assisted-by: Claude

P1 collector.rs — 다른 스레드의 breach를 억제하지 말 것 (1826f73): 맞습니다. "같은 도착인가"는 breach한 스레드에게 물어야 하는 질문인데 process-wide 요약을 읽고 있었습니다. memory_error_owed_here()(thread-local)로 바꿨고, 이 스레드에 빚진 게 없는 breach는 이제 억제 대신 이 스레드를 arm합니다 — upstream의 raise가 수집을 돌린 스레드에게 하는 것과 같습니다. fatal rung만 process-wide 읽기를 유지합니다(아직 아무도 못 받은 상태에서 프로세스를 죽이면 안 되므로). 테스트: a_breach_owed_to_another_thread_arms_this_one_rather_than_silencing_it — 소유 스레드를 parking 시켜 실제로 두 owner가 순서대로 전달하는 것까지 확인합니다.
P2 — owed OOM을 우회 return할 때 훅 억제 (1826f73): 맞습니다. 그 early return도 upstream이 raise하는 자리라 oom_signalled_this_step을 세웁니다.
P1 pyre-interpreter/src/eval.rs — 전달 전에 STW park (4bd356d): 맞습니다. plain evaluator만 순서가 반대였습니다(JIT 루프는 이미 park가 먼저입니다). 두 비트가 동시에 켜질 수 있고 handle_exception은 Python을 돌리며 할당하므로, 순서를 JIT 루프와 맞췄습니다.

Release deferred-error ownership when a thread exits
If a host or background thread drives the public collection API under a heap limit and exits before entering another evaluator dispatch, this plain Cell<bool> is destroyed without decrementing MEMORY_ERROR_OWERS. The new ownership test demonstrates the state by letting the owner terminate and then manually impersonating it to clean up; production has no equivalent cleanup. The process-wide EB_MEMORY_ERROR therefore remains armed permanently, causing compiled backedges to keep deoptimizing and preventing memory_error_armed() from releasing the fatal heap-limit rung. Give the TLS value a thread-exit destructor or tie ownership cleanup to the mutator lifecycle.

Re-read STW before delivering the owed exception
If another thread arms EB_STW after dispatch_breaker is loaded but before this call, the preceding stale-snapshot check misses the request while take_memory_error() observes its bit from a fresh load and enters handle_exception, which can allocate or invoke tracing code while the collector waits for this mutator to park. Fresh evidence in this revision is that moving delivery below the STW branch still leaves the branch reading the older snapshot; re-read/service the current STW bit immediately before consuming the error in both eval_loop and its eval_loop_jit twin.

Reconcile deferred-error owners after fork
When thread A owns a deferred error and thread B forks during the post-STW/pre-dispatch window, the child inherits MEMORY_ERROR_OWERS > 0 and EB_MEMORY_ERROR, but only B survives and its TLS says it owes nothing. The inspected thread::after_fork_child path removes vanished execution contexts and resets GC/STW state without reconciling this new counter, so take_memory_error() can never clear the bit in the child: compiled backedges deopt permanently, and memory_error_armed() also prevents the heap-limit fatal rung from becoming reachable. Add an after-fork reset that rebuilds the summary from the surviving thread's ownership.

MEMORY_ERROR_OWED가 소멸자를 가진 타입이 되어, 갚지 않은 채 종료한 스레드가 MEMORY_ERROR_OWERS에서 빠지고 마지막이면 비트를 내립니다. 이게 없으면 EB_MEMORY_ERROR가 JIT_BREAKER_MASK에 있으므로 프로세스의 모든 back edge가 영구히 실패하고, collector의 사다리도 memory_error_armed()를 영원히 true로 읽어 fatal rung에 도달하지 못합니다. fork() 자식은 살아남은 스레드 하나 기준으로 census를 다시 세웁니다(memory_error_after_fork_child, gc_sync::after_fork_child에서 clear_stw 옆).
STW 재확인은 이유가 따로 있습니다: 기존 EB_STW 검사는 dispatch 시작 시점에 읽은 사본이고, 그 검사와 delivery 사이에서 gc_interp::safepoint가 major cycle 전체를 돕니다. 그 사이 도착한 요청은 사본에 없습니다.

When an oversized object has a rawrefcount P/O mirror whose C type defines tp_finalize, routing it into the young rawmalloc generation bypasses that finalizer if the object is unreachable at the next minor: rrc_claim_finalizers_young skips every non-nursery address via !is_nursery_object_start(obj), after which _rrc_minor_free releases the mirror and the young block is freed without queueing the callback. Teach the minor finalizer-claim path to retain and mark young rawmalloc objects before enabling this placement for them.

Re-resolve the frame after the second safepoint
When another thread requests STW while this thread is delivering a deferred MemoryError, this poll may run a moving collection after f was cached at line 9065. The subsequent next_instr() and handle_exception calls dereference that stale pointer even though this loop's own invariant requires re-resolving frame_root.frame() after every collection point, risking use-after-move or frame corruption; re-seed f immediately after this poll.

Release deferred errors when leaving the runtime
When a long-lived embedding or background worker drives the public collection API under a heap limit and then returns to non-Python work, it executes neither production take_memory_error() call (both are in the dispatch loops) nor this TLS destructor, which runs only when the OS thread exits. Its debt therefore remains indefinitely: EB_MEMORY_ERROR makes every compiled back edge process-wide deopt, while memory_error_armed() prevents the heap-limit fatal rung from progressing. Tie cleanup/delivery to the execution-context or runtime-exit lifecycle, or return the error synchronously to non-dispatch callers, rather than relying solely on thread destruction.

Two independent GC slices on the same branch.
1. The max-heap
MemoryError(2 commits)Under a heap limit (
PYPY_GC_MAX/--heapsize) the first breach was silent on every path, so a program's only sign of the limit was the second breach'sout_of_memory("using too much memory, aborting")— the rung that names a Python exception was skipped entirely.The breaching collection is usually driven by the dispatch-loop safepoint, which returns
()and cannot raise, so upstream'sraise MemoryErrorinmajor_collection_stephad no carrier.EB_MEMORY_ERROR(bit 5 of the eval-breaker word) carries it: armed where upstream raises, taken by both dispatch loops, raised there throughhandle_exception.The two channels are mutually exclusive per breach, selected by
reserving_size. Arming both latches the undelivered one onto the next breach — anoom_pendingno allocation was waiting for is taken by the next unrelated one, failing an allocation that breached nothing.pyre/pyrex/tests/heap_limit_memory_error.rspins it end to end, on both dispatch loops and on both allocation paths. What it deliberately does not assert is that the program survives its handler: after the first breach the live set is at the limit by definition, so whether any given handler fits in the remaining headroom moves non-monotonically with the limit (80/96/112/128 MiB flips a surviving handler to an aborting one and back). The stable observable is that the limit becomes a Python exception.2. The young raw-malloced generation (3 commits)
OldGengainsyoung_rawmalloced_objectsand its membership set, allocated bytry_alloc_young_rawmalloc— individualraw_mallocat every size, since an arena block must be old — and emptied bysweep_young_rawmalloced, which promotes ontoold_rawmalloced_objectsor frees. The collector side isalloc_young_rawmalloc_clear,visit_young_rawmalloced_objectandfree_young_rawmalloced_objects, wired intodrag_out_root, the three slot paths intrace_and_update_object, anddo_collect_nursery.Then eleven sites that read "outside the nursery" as "old" or "survives". That held while the nursery contained every young object; a young raw-malloced block is young, is not in the nursery, and is in
rawmalloced_payloads, sooldgen.containsanswers for it too. Widened to youth:classify_young_owner,invalidate_young_weakrefs,register_finalizer,deal_with_young_objects_with_finalizers, the rawrefcount young half (rrc_young_object_alive,rrc_trace_c_edges_young,_rrc_minor_free,rrc_claim_finalizers_young,rawrefcount_create_link_pyre/_pyobj),do_get_objectsgenerations 0 and 2, the Phase 1c jitframe root arm, and the write-barrier probe.is_in_nurseryandis_nursery_object_startare unchanged. They answer "can this move", whichcan_move, everyis_forwardedread and pinning are built on. Where the two questions come apart the movability one is kept deliberately — the rawrefcountp_dict_nursstays keyed onis_in_nursery, because the wholesale clear it takes each minor rests on every key having moved.remove_young_arrays_from_old_objects_pointing_to_younghas no counterpart here: upstream needs it because its young array arm setsHAS_CARDS | TRACK_YOUNG_PTRS, while these births set no flags, so the barrier cannot enqueue one.Nothing allocates young yet, and that is the point
No allocation site calls the young birth, so no young raw-malloced object exists outside the tests and none of the added arms are reached. This is not an oversight — it cannot be turned on in this PR:
malloc_big_fixedsizeserves two populations. Oversized allocations, which upstream births young; andnon_movingdescrs at any size, which are frames. The helper receives only(size, typeid)and so cannot tell which caller it has. Routing it to the young path wholesale would put frames on the young list and free them at the next minor. Enabling the birth needs the helper ABI split first, on both backends, andrewrite.py'sremember_write_barrierstamp — which pyre currently withholds precisely because its result is old — applied only to the young arm.Landing the machinery separately keeps that change small and reviewable, and keeps a half-ported young generation, which frees live objects, off main.
