- spawn placement: round-robin across shards (same-shard when the
engine is absent/single); the actor's mailbox and delivery belong to
its HOME thread — a spawn to another shard travels as an ADOPT
envelope, a send as a SEND envelope (mutex-guarded inbox + eventfd
wake; the spec's lock-free rings stay a disclosed deviation until
9e measures the mutex)
- workers: first envelope triggers lazy full-vm init UNDER the inbox
mutex (TSan caught the memset racing a concurrent push, twice — the
second was inbox_push reading wake_efd outside the lock; both fixed,
gate x8 + battery clean); serve loop = adopt -> run to drained ->
wait on the plane (the wake eventfd is watched by io_uring POLL_ADD
oneshot / epoll level-triggered on BOTH backends)
- ownership across heaps: every allocation stamps rt->shard_id into
the header (the field reserved since iteration 2); a drop on the
wrong shard routes home as a FREE envelope — the owner's arena stays
single-threaded by construction; at teardown routed frees become
no-ops (arenas die wholesale) which is what un-danced the freed-mutex
ASan SEGV the first ordering had
- WO-E222: an actor's state or message type that is (or transitively
contains) an inferred-traced class refuses at the spawn/send — with
round-robin every actor is potentially remote; corpus-pinned
(compile-fail/traced-send, inference-aware: Box contains ?Node)
- determinism narrowed per spec: oop-e2e pins WO_SHARDS=1 (exact
outputs); the fibers gate grows multi-shard SET assertions + a TSan
run (wovm-tsan target; setarch -R fallback for kernel 6.5+ ASLR)
- NEXT_RUNNABLE honors engine shutdown for parked workers (deadlock
hole closed); io_wait's adopt-wake (rc 1) no longer reads as fatal
- battery: oop-e2e 93/0, fibers 10/0 x8 (+WO_IO=epoll), log-watcher
7/0, employee 8/0, web-app 21/0, deps 8/0, runtime tests 16/16

Close the 3 gaps between "builds in the repo" and "installs from a tarball
like Go", so writeonce can ship to other developers.
- VERSION file at repo root single-sources the toolchain version (0.1.0).
- `woc version` -> "writeonce 0.1.0 linux/amd64"; `wovm --version` -> "wovm
0.1.0" (stamped by the Makefile from VERSION; --version handled only in the
plain-wovm path so a built app never shadows its own `version` arg).
- wo.toml `[runtime] wo = ">= X.Y"` is now ENFORCED: woc refuses a project
requiring a newer toolchain than itself (>= and bare version parsed;
unknown operators accepted forward-compatibly). Was parsed-and-ignored.
- woc self-locates wovm: --runtime > [build] runtime > $WO_RUNTIME > a `wovm`
beside the woc binary (Sys.executable_name) > runtime/wovm rel CWD. An
installed woc in <prefix>/bin finds its sibling wovm from any cwd.
- `just dist` (scripts/mkdist.sh) packages writeonce-<ver>-linux-amd64.tar.gz,
Go-shaped (archive root writeonce/, bin/{woc,wovm}, README, VERSION), with a
drift guard asserting VERSION == woc == wovm. dist/ gitignored.
- `just install-accept` (scripts/install-accept.sh) is the gate: extract, PATH,
version, build+run a project from an unrelated cwd, constraint refusal — 6/0.
Verified: install-accept 6/0; woc-test 565/0; wovm suites + cli_smoke;
log-watcher 7/0. Linux-amd64 only (a cross matrix is future work).

- database/src/table.{c,h}: per-shard per-class slabs (256 rows,
malloc'd, never moved -- row addresses stable for 9b's row views),
occupancy bitmap, LIFO slot reuse, open-addressing id hash with
tombstones (ids never 0, never reused)
- field encoding walks the same .wob class-table kinds the VM walks:
scalars raw (WO_NIL_SCALAR passes through), Texts copied to db_text,
owned objects flattened recursively to db_rec, containers
element-wise; GCREF refused at encode (the GC bulkhead, defensively)
- two one-way copy gates: insert copies VM values in, read allocates
fresh VM values out -- no VM pointer in a slab, no slab pointer in
the VM, proven by mutating originals after insert
- id discipline: per table per shard, S+1 step N; owner = (id-1) % N;
N-parametric, runs at N=1 until iteration 8, tested at N=3
- choke points: wo_row_insert/wo_row_remove carry the INDEX HOOK
sites Task 4 attaches to; nothing else mutates storage
- runtime/Makefile links database/src into every wovm + test binary
- test_table 827/0 ASan+UBSan; oop-e2e 71/0; log-watcher 7/0;
binding doc docs/plan/oop-vm/04-db-binding.md; CODE-LOGIC.md beside
the code; plan Task 1 checked off

- `woc` now emits `.wob` that `wovm` runs: emit.ml lowers the typed,
owner-annotated AST (scope-stack registers with a >64 WO-E401 diagnostic,
Lua-style call windows, ICALL by slot, dedup const pool, drop maps, line
tables, implicit terminators); disasm.ml backs `--dump-bc` goldens.
- Ownership lowering consumes the four owner tables verbatim; RESIDUAL is the
only source of borrow ops, coalesced per operand. Review caught the emitter
consuming only 2 of owner.ml's 4 residual producers — an assignment-anchored
aliasing violation ran to exit 0 instead of trapping; fixed, plus a backstop
raising WO-E404 for any residual region left unconsumed.
- Conformance harness `scripts/oop-e2e.sh` (`just oop-e2e`): four fixture
kinds with exact outcomes — byte-exact stdout, one WO-E### anchored on
`error CODE:`, numeric trap code, gc trace. 25 fixtures incl. pricing-demo
logic, the ownership suite, and DB_STUB's parse-but-trap. `tests/` un-ignored
so the corpus is actually tracked.
- `woc build` produces a self-contained binary: wovm copy + appended image +
20-byte trailer, self-exec via /proc/self/exe. Verified relocated outside
the repo, argless, and against adversarial trailer corruption.
- Milestone 1's five spec criteria all MET (`just oop-accept`). Criterion 3
closed by WO-E405 — the entry must return `Int`, since program mode already
says its return value is the exit code — which deletes the leak class
without adding return-type metadata to the format. `gc/held-cycle` retired:
an externally-held cycle is not expressible in a post-exit pump.
- New spec: inferred GC + incremental per-shard tri-color mark-sweep, retiring
`@gc` and reference counting. Story gains iterations 7b (that work) and 9b
(`@table`, relations, compiler-checked query); `.dev/reference` gains a
sparse System.Linq checkout. Priority: 5→6→7 (log-watcher) then 7b, 8, 9, 9b.
- 16 tasks complete: arena, object model, borrow word, containers,
RC + budgeted cycle collector, wob_build, validating loader,
interpreter core (dual dispatch), object opcodes, drop-map unwinding,
builtins + DB_STUB + TRAP, ICALL, wovm CLI + just recipes
- 13 test suites × 2 dispatch flavors (ASan+UBSan) + CLI smoke, all green
- .wob v1 format pinned in src/wob.h + docs/plan/oop-vm/00-wob-format.md
- wo-rt.c reference event-loop preserved for sub-project 2
This is Iteration 2 of the OOP milestone; compiler front (Iteration 3)
is in progress on this branch. They meet at Iteration 4 (emitter+e2e).
