Class B shared miscompile pre-fix: cstage skipped the CALL emit at the
receive site (frame collapsed, exit 11); wwstage emitted CALL but
truncated 32B return to AX only (slice payload garbage, segfault on
g.b[0]). Both stages now lower plain TY_STRUCT > 24B through the SysV
sret discipline: caller pre-allocates dest, passes &dest in RDI as a
hidden first-arg (user args shift to SI/DX/CX/R8/R9/+stack), callee
saves RDI to @sretarg at the prologue and writes through it, returns
RDI in RAX. Surfaced by lib/encoding/utf8 pre-flight when the
Hoehrmann decoder (32B) hit 698_cgreturn_struct.c's OUT-OF-SCOPE
marker.
Scope: plain TY_STRUCT > 24B only — tagged unions, tuples, str, slice
keep their existing register-return ABIs. `return f()` forwarding
from a sret callee is fail-loud-not-wired (compile-time error in
both stages, follow-up filed); the workaround `let r = f(); return
r;` is wired and byte-identical. Discard-context calls (`f();` of an
sret-returning function) share a per-fn single-slot @sretscr;
consecutive discards reuse the same slot.
698_cgreturn_struct.c's OUT-OF-SCOPE marker retired in the same
commit; three positive rows (32B quad, 32B decoder, 40B five) now
assert the sret discipline across both stages via byte-id diff.
Tests:
- 721_sret_struct_return pins three asm-presence sentinels per
row: (a) LEAQ -K(BP), DI immediately before CALL at the receive
site, (b) MOVQ -K(BP), AX before RET in the callee (sret return-
the-pointer), (c) negative-assert no MOVQ AX, -K(BP) capture for
return type >8B. Three rows × both stages × cmp -s byte-id.
- 925_sret_struct_return_run runtime-pins 7 rows × 2 stages
including the collision row (25B+ struct BOTH returned AND passed
by-value as arg — catches arg-shift, sister site to #11), nested
struct payload, slice payload, reassign-receive, N_IDENT return
rhs.
89/89 ok. 995_self_rebuild stays green (ww2==ww3==ww4 byte-id).
