iter hs.3: heap-Str runtime additions — str_alloc + int_to_str + float_to_str
Append three new symbols to runtime/str.c: a private str_alloc(uint64_t)
slab helper that allocates [rc_header | len | bytes... | NUL] via
ailang_rc_alloc and writes the len prefix, plus two extern formatters
ailang_int_to_str(int64_t) and ailang_float_to_str(double) that compose
str_alloc with snprintf("%lld") / snprintf("%g"). Defensive abort() on
truncation; 64-byte stack buffer comfortably oversized for either
formatter.
The extern declaration of ailang_rc_alloc carries __attribute__((weak)).
First regression sweep without it surfaced 11 e2e link failures under
--alloc=gc and --alloc=bump: public T-visible symbols (int_to_str /
float_to_str) pull their transitive callees (rc_alloc) into every
binary's symbol set, but rc.c is not linked under gc/bump in hs.3.
The weak attribute makes the cross-allocator link safe in isolation;
under rc the strong definition wins as usual. Retained after hs.4
(when rc.c becomes unconditionally linked) as a no-op that keeps
str.c link-safe in isolation.
No IR-side caller wired yet — hs.4 lands the IR-header declare lines,
the int_to_str/float_to_str codegen lowering, the checker install,
and the unconditional rc.c link.
cargo test --workspace + cross_lang.py + compile_check.py + check.py
all green on re-sweep.

- 2026-05-12 — iter hs.1: heap-Str ABI iter 1 — static-Str LLVM globals migrate from `[N x i8]` to packed-struct `<{ i64, i64, [N x i8] }>` carrying a `UINT64_MAX` sentinel rc-header + explicit `len`; IR-Str pointers now land on the `len`-field; `@puts` / `@ail_str_eq` / `@ail_str_compare` / `@strcmp` callsites GEP +8 to recover the bytes pointer (4 sites; plan listed 3, Task-5 e2e regression surfaced the 4th); 6 IR-shape pins; format strings stay raw `[N x i8]`; cross_lang.py + compile_check.py + full cargo test --workspace all green; byte-identical stdout across every example → 2026-05-12-iter-hs.1.md

- 2026-05-12 — spec amendment: heap-str-abi — sentinel-rc-header story dropped after hs.2 BLOCKED finding (codegen-level elision via move-tracking + non-escape lowering keeps static-Str pointers out of `ailang_rc_dec` along every shipping execution path; no runtime guard needed); re-dispatched grounding-check PASS → see commit `2a72a4a` (no per-iter journal — spec edit)

- 2026-05-12 — iter hs.2: static-Str layout retrofit — drop the `UINT64_MAX` sentinel slot from packed-struct globals (`<{ i64, i64, [N x i8] }>` → `<{ i64, [N x i8] }>`); IR-`Str` pointer now lands on the `len`-field at struct-index 0 (was 1) via constexpr-GEP `i32 0, i32 0`; `+8` consumer-side GEPs at the four C-API callsites invariant across the switch; renamed `..._sentinel_and_len` test to `..._with_len`; updated 5 sites in `crates/ailang-codegen/src/lib.rs` (3 format strings + 2 doc-comments); regenerated `hello.ll` snapshot; full `cargo test --workspace`, cross_lang.py, compile_check.py, check.py all green; static-Str globals are now 8 bytes smaller per literal → 2026-05-12-iter-hs.2.md

- 2026-05-12 — iter hs.3: heap-Str runtime additions — three new symbols appended to `runtime/str.c` (`static str_alloc(uint64_t)` slab helper, `ailang_int_to_str(int64_t)`, `ailang_float_to_str(double)`); supporting `<stdint.h>`/`<stdio.h>`/`<stdlib.h>` includes + `extern void *ailang_rc_alloc(size_t)` declaration; the extern was promoted from plain-external to `__attribute__((weak))` after the first regression sweep surfaced 11 e2e link failures under `--alloc=gc`/`bump` (public `T` symbols pull in their transitive callees regardless of upstream usage; rc.c is not linked under gc/bump in hs.3 — repair makes str.c link-safe in isolation, no-op once hs.4 lands the unconditional rc.c link); cargo test --workspace + cross_lang.py + compile_check.py + check.py all green on re-sweep; no IR-side caller wired yet (hs.4) → 2026-05-12-iter-hs.3.md
