For every ordinary-interpreter lookup on a type with a nonzero version tag, this condition bypasses _pure_getdictvalue_no_unwrapping; callers without a wrapped name do the same. PyPy's W_TypeObject.getdictvalue instead invokes that elidable whenever a version tag exists, so this newly added front door knowingly gives interpreter and generated execution different control-flow and semantic owners. Route both through the shared PyPy-shaped path, adapting the name ABI without a we_are_jitted() behavior split.

…able `typeobject.py:460-471 lookup_starting_at` reads each class past `w_starttype` with `w_class.getdictvalue(space, name)` (:468), which routes through the `@elidable` `_pure_getdictvalue_no_unwrapping` keyed on the version tag. The walk here called `type_dict_lookup_wtf8` instead, reaching `w_dict_getitem_wtf8` and its `wtf8_key_is_utf8(&Wtf8)` -- two machine words against the residual call ABI's one, which an inline sub-walk declines at. Add that elidable beside `_pure_lookup_where_with_method_cache`, publish it with `cpa3`, and add a `w_type_getdictvalue` front door. Unlike `lookup_where_with_method_cache` the front door does not promote the type: `getdictvalue` reads the one type it was handed, and `w_type_version_tag` already routes a prebuilt type through the `elidable_promote` `_pure_version_tag`. The front door takes the caller's own wrapped name rather than boxing one. `super_getattribute_code_name` already holds it, so threading `w_name` through `super_getattribute_str` and `super_getattribute_wtf8` keeps a `box_str_constant` residual off the traced path, and spares the interpreter the process-global `STRING_INTERN_TABLE` mutex once per lookup that `lookup_in_type_where_wtf8` documents paying for the same ABI. The two callers that hold only an unwrapped name pass PY_NULL and take the raw probe, as does any type without a version tag. Measured: `load_super_attr_descent` still reports fired=0. The sub-walk's decline moved from `wtf8_key_is_utf8` to `box_str_constant` and then, with the wrapper threaded, to `pyre_object::function::w_method_new` -- the descriptor bind at the end of the walk, which is unpublished.

…pace `walker_apparent_super_class` held the null/`is_type`/`is_none` screens, the `class_attr_fast_path` read of `__class__`, and the `issubtype_w` check that descriptor.py:139-146 spells. Those are now `baseobjspace::super_check_apparent_fast_path`, next to `super_check_python_free`, which answers the same function's first two arms. The walker function is the adapter that packs the returned tuple into `ApparentSuperClass`; its four call sites are unchanged. `jit_issubtype_w` was the walker's cross-crate accessor for `issubtype_w`; inside baseobjspace the predicate calls `issubtype_w` itself.

…er sub-walk `guarded_branch_core` resolved its branch-resume gate through `ActiveResumeFrame::current`. A canonical helper body walks its own jitcode over its own register bank and pushes no `InlineFrame`, so `current` returns the Python frame below it -- the innermost inlined callee, or the portal. `other_target` is then a helper offset read against that frame's jitcode, and `depth_trivia` / `pcdep_trivia` answer a foreign offset through a predecessor scan instead of failing, so the resume depth and the kept-slot colours come back plausible and wrong. `kept_stack_has_boxed_int_hazard` dereferences the word the foreign colour names in `concrete_registers_r` as a `PyObjectRef`. `fbw_mode.transparent_helper_subwalk` now takes the gate frame to `None`, which is the depth `single_frame_collapse` above already computes for a helper walk whose framestack is empty. The flag is set only by `run_sub_jitcode_walk`; `inline_subwalk` is not used, because it is also set for a Python-callee sub-walk whose bank and target do belong to the frame `current` returns. Assisted-by: Claude
`zero_arg_super_attr.py` named `wtf8_key_is_utf8` as the reason the descent fires zero times. That wall moved rather than resolved: the sub-walk now declines at `pyre_object::function::w_method_new`, the unpublished descriptor bind the walk ends in. The wall was then lifted experimentally and the result measured. With the descent firing, this body read 7.71s against 0.06s for the hand-written `load_super_attr` fold at N=2,000,000 -- one binary A/B'd with `PYRE_FBW_NO_SPECIALIZE`, identical output, and both arms reporting `loops_compiled=2 loops_aborted=0`, so the compiled trace is what differs. On `class_super_zero_arg_inlined_callee.py` the fold alone covers 5 of 5 super sites; with the descent firing, coverage splits 3+2, `loops_compiled` drops 6 -> 4 and `loops_aborted` rises 0 -> 6. `try_walker_specialize_load_super_attr` consults the descent before the fold and returns on success, so a firing descent takes a site away from the fold rather than adding one. Both numbers are recorded at that `spec_gate` call and in the fixture header. Assisted-by: Claude

…am by symbol `w_type_getdictvalue` took the raw `type_dict_lookup_wtf8` probe whenever `!we_are_jitted()`, so a tagged namespace read had one owner under the JIT and another in the interpreter. `W_TypeObject.getdictvalue` branches on the version tag alone. The doc comment on this function already said so -- "upstream branches only on `version_tag is None`, never on `we_are_jitted()`" -- while the code below it did the opposite. The remaining two conditions test what the call was handed, not whether it is jitted: no version tag is upstream's uncacheable arm, and a null `w_name` is a caller that reached this walk holding only the unwrapped name, which the elidable's one-word-per-argument ABI cannot take. `_pure_getdictvalue_no_unwrapping`'s body is the same `type_dict_lookup_wtf8` the raw arm calls, so routing the interpreter through it returns the same value. Also replaces the nine `upstream.py:LINE` citations this branch added with the symbols they were pointing at, per `scripts/check-new-line-citations.py`: `W_TypeObject.getdictvalue`, `lookup_starting_at`, and `_super_check`.

The negative result
zero_arg_super_attr.pyused to blamewtf8_key_is_utf8for the descent firingzero times. That wall moved rather than resolved — the sub-walk now declines at
pyre_object::function::w_method_new, the unpublished descriptor bind the walkends in.
That wall was cleared experimentally (an emit registry virtualizing the bind as
NewWithVtable+SetfieldGcrather than publishing a residual), the descentfired as designed, and then it was measured. Firing it is a regression:
bench/synth/zero_arg_super_attr.pyat N=2,000,000: 7.71s with the descentagainst 0.06s without — 128x. One binary, A/B'd with
PYRE_FBW_NO_SPECIALIZE=load_super_attr_descent, identical output, and botharms reporting
loops_compiled=2 loops_aborted=0. No abort, no bailout, nocompile failure: the compiled trace itself is what is worse.
extra_tests/snippets/class_super_zero_arg_inlined_callee.py— the pluggyshape this whole line of work targeted: the hand-written
load_super_attrfold alone covers 5 of 5 super sites. With the descent firing, coverage
splits 3+2,
loops_compileddrops 6 -> 4 andloops_abortedrises 0 -> 6.try_walker_specialize_load_super_attrconsults the descent before thehand-written fold and returns on success, so a firing descent takes a site away
from the fold rather than adding one. That ordering was harmless only for as
long as the descent always declined.
So the experiment is reverted and the measurement is committed in its place —
at the
spec_gatecall site and in the fixture header — so the next attemptstarts from the number rather than from the wall. The
#1643per-foldframestack mitigation is also kept rather than removed: the commit above fixes
that crash at its true site, but the mitigation's only behavioural benefit was
letting the descent fire, which is what these numbers price.
What is still unexplained is the 128x itself, and it should be explained before

Re-run on the current base (

cargo test --all --no-default-features --features dynasmcheck.py --backend dynasmcheck.py --backend craneliftextra_tests/run.py --gated-onlyAn earlier revision of this description claimed
synth/range_step_one_shapeshad no committed cranelift jit-stats baseline andcalled that a defect owed to
main. That was wrong on both counts: theverifying probe asked for
pyre/bench/jitstats/...when the baselines live inpyre/bench/synth/..., and a path that does not exist reports "absent" foreverything, so the probe confirmed the conclusion regardless of the truth. The
reading was also taken against the base the branch then sat on;
6aabe927ce1(#1653) had already recorded the missing baselines. All three siblings exist on
the current
main, and the fixture passes here.The CI cranelift ratio reds
pyre/check.py cranelift (ubuntu-24.04)is red on CI. It is also red onmainat this branch's exact base commit (
78501667f, run 33691104038), which isthe control:

pure_tupleload, fails on both and is lower here thanon
main. The rest are 6-12% over their gates and the two sets do not overlap,which is the shape of ratio noise on a shared runner rather than a regression.
None of these fixtures are touched by this branch, all pass locally, and
check.py reported no jit-stats mismatch for any of them — so compilation is
unchanged and only wall-clock differs.
That said, one change here (the branch-resume gate) does reach helper sub-walks
and could in principle touch an inlining fixture, so this is stated as the
current reading rather than a closed question; the re-run on this push is the
test.
