📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughPacked-f64 loop clones now support eligible reads indexed by a counter from an enclosing loop. The lowering adds a live array-length check and side exit. Store paths remain unchanged. A nested-loop regression test verifies the inline foreign-read path. ChangesPacked clone foreign-counter reads
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The optimization can replay an iteration after updating an enclosing loop counter, causing that update to be applied twice and potentially changing loop control and computed results. The PR is not merge-ready until this body shape is rejected or proven safe and covered by a regression, or the risk is explicitly accepted. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Full details: Title checkExplanation The title clearly identifies the main codegen optimization: packed clones can read using a foreign counter inline. The benchmark and Node parity details are relevant, although the title is somewhat long. Full details: Description checkExplanation The description provides a detailed summary, implementation changes, rationale, benchmark results, and verification results. It does not use the required template headings and does not state a related issue or checklist status, but the substantive information is mostly complete. Full details: Docstring CoverageExplanation Docstring coverage is 25.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 8 functions across 3 files. (2 skipped: 1 unsupported, 1 too large.)

…_loops 51 -> 17 ms, node parity) The clone's raw slot load carries no bounds check because the index is the loop's own counter, which the bound proved in range. Any other index was rejected by the body matcher outright, so `sum = sum + arr[i] + arr[j]` in a nested loop sent the WHOLE inner loop to the typed-feedback tier -- a registered guard call plus a boxed fallback per element, for both reads, every iteration -- even though the sibling read beside it would have been a raw load. A foreign i32 counter now takes that same raw load behind one inline `icmp ult idx, len` against the live ArrayHeader.length, branching to the fact's existing side exit on failure (the exit the hole arm already uses, so mid-body exit needed no new machinery). Read-only bodies only: a side exit re-executes the iteration in the slow clone, harmless for a read and double-applying for a store, so the relaxation sits in expr_is_packed_f64_loop_safe and is not shared with the store matchers beside it. Mac mini, self-timed, min of 3: 10_nested_loops 51 -> 17 ms vs node 16 -- 3.3x node to parity; 16_matrix_multiply 121 -> 100 ms as a side effect. Nothing else in the 17-benchmark sweep moved. Five-case differential vs node (nested accumulation, labelled break mid-iteration, guarded accumulation, mixed-layout array that must fail into the slow clone, accumulator observed between inner passes) byte-identical. 30 codegen suites pass, including a new IR pin.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Reject foreign counters that the clone body can update before the read.
Line 5308 accepts any other i32 counter. The safe-body matcher still accepts Expr::Update and Expr::LocalSet for that local because it only protects arr_id and this clone's counter_id.
For i++; sum = sum + arr[i] + arr[j] in an inner clone, i can reach arr.length before arr[i]. The bounds check then takes the side exit after i++. The slow clone re-executes the iteration and applies i++ again. This changes the counter, loop control, and result.
Require proof that the foreign counter has no writes in the cloned body, or reject this shape. Add a side-exit regression for this case.

…et.rs PerryTS#9161 pushed index_get.rs to 2041 lines, over the 2000-line cap. Moved foreign_packed_loop_read plus the two packed-fact lookups it sits beside into index_get/foreign_counter.rs, re-exporting packed_f64_loop_index_parts so expr/mod.rs's existing import still resolves. This also reattaches a doc comment the PR had orphaned: the new function had been inserted between packed_f64_loop_fact_for_index's doc comment and the function itself.

Merged, with one commit from me for the file-size cap — details below. Reading a foreign counter inside a packed clone means the clone now depends on a value it doesn't own, so I probed nested-loop shapes rather than the happy path. 18 shapes, byte-identical to node v26.5.1:
Case 7 is the one I'd single out — if the foreign counter were cached rather than read live, mutating The added commit. This pushed That split also reattached a doc comment this PR had orphaned: I also renamed Validation after the split: codegen 1356 passed, |

A packed loop's fast clone can now read its array at an enclosing loop's counter, not only at its own.
What was happening
The clone's element read is a raw slot load with no bounds check, licensed by the index being the loop's own induction variable — which the loop bound already proved in range. Any other index had no such proof, so the body matcher rejected
arr[i]outright, and the whole inner loop fell to the typed-feedback tier: a registered guard call plus a boxed fallback per element, for both reads, on every iteration — even though the sibling read beside it would have been a raw load.benchmarks/suite/10_nested_loops.tsis exactly this shape:The change
A foreign i32 counter takes the same raw load behind one inline
icmp ult idx, lenagainst the liveArrayHeader.length— the same wordexpr/index.rs's store guard reads — branching to the fact's existing side exit when it fails. That is the exit the hole arm already uses, so mid-body exit needed no new machinery, and the clone's bound did not need plumbing out ofprecomputed_i32_bound.Read-only bodies only, deliberately. A side exit re-executes the iteration in the slow clone: harmless for a read, double-applying for a store. So the relaxation lives in
expr_is_packed_f64_loop_safeand is not shared with the three store matchers sitting beside it, which keep the exact-counter rule.Measurements
Idle Mac mini, self-timed (the benchmark's own printed elapsed), min of three:
10_nested_loops16_matrix_multiply10_nested_loopsgoes from 3.3× Node to parity;matrix_multiplyimproves as a side effect, since its inner reads are the same shape. No other benchmark in the 17-entry sweep moved — that sweep was re-run specifically to catch a regression from relaxing a codegen admission.Correctness
Five-case differential against Node, chosen for the shapes where a side exit is observable: the plain nested accumulation, a labelled
breakout of the inner loop mid-iteration, anifguarding the accumulation, a mixed-layout array whose guard must fail into the slow clone, and an accumulator read by the outer loop between inner passes. All byte-identical.perry-codegen: 30 suites pass, including a new IR pin (packed_clone_reads_a_foreign_counter_without_the_feedback_call).cargo fmt --checkclean.Stacked context: #9146 is a separate lane (byte-array reads) and does not touch this code.
