- Add in_cow flag + shadow/shadow_caps fields to xzarray_private_t
- Convert xzarray_item_t.inuse from bitfield to _Atomic _Bool; update
all read/write sites to use atomic_load/store_explicit
- Implement xzarray_freeze(): O(1) ptr swap, pre-grows active array
1.5x+16 to avoid realloc during COW, sets pos past shadow range
- Implement xzarray_thaw(): merges shadow into active (shadow wins only
for slots not updated during COW), supports optional retain_fn GC
- xzarray_get_vec(): falls back to shadow during COW so reads remain
valid between freeze and thaw
- Add COW guard assertion in xzarray_clear()
- Wire vfreeze/vthaw into xzarray_type interface
- Tests: 5 new COW tests all green; 4 pre-existing failures unchanged
rtti header already present at rtti-0.0.2 with vfreeze_fn_t, vthaw_fn_t,
retain_fn_t, and the two new slots in intf_varray_t. No header modification
needed.
Convert intf_varray_t compound-literal initializers in zarray.c and kvmgr.c
to designated style with explicit .vfreeze = NULL and .vthaw = NULL slots.
kv.c has no intf_varray_t initializer.
Add test_zarray_cow.c with test_freeze_thaw_slots_exist which verifies the
struct layout has the slots accessible and that they are NULL until P0-2
wires the real implementations. Wire test into meson.build and test.c.
Full clean rebuild confirmed: 27/28 targets linked, no new test failures.
Only the 4 pre-existing failures remain.
