## Executive Summary

This specification defines **trueno-cuda-edge**, a GPU edge-case test framework for the entire Sovereign AI Stack. The crate provides five specialized test frameworks that systematically probe CUDA driver failure modes, shared memory boundary violations, context lifecycle chaos, quantization format parity, and PTX compilation poisoning.

### Core Thesis

> **Hypothesis**: GPU code that passes standard unit tests still contains latent defects triggered only by edge-case driver states (null contexts, exhausted shared memory, corrupted PTX). A dedicated edge-case framework that systematically fuzzes these boundaries will expose defects that conventional testing misses — achieving ≥95% edge-case coverage with zero false positives across the Sovereign AI Stack.

### Design Principles

The framework synthesizes three philosophical traditions:

1. **Toyota Production System** — Stop-on-error, mistake-proofing, test on real hardware
2. **Erlang OTP** — Let-it-crash supervision, process isolation, restart strategies
3. **Popperian Falsificationism** — Every capability claim has a corresponding falsification test; unfalsifiable claims are excluded

### Toyota Way Engineering Principles

1. **Jidoka** (Stop on Poison): Any GPU test that detects a poisoned context or corrupted state halts the entire test suite immediately — no further tests execute on compromised hardware [1, 2]
2. **Poka-Yoke** (Null Guard Types): Rust's type system encodes GPU resource validity at compile time — `NonNullDevicePtr<T>`, `ValidContext`, `VerifiedPtx` make null/invalid states unrepresentable [3, 4]
3. **Genchi Genbutsu** (Test on Real GPU): Edge-case tests MUST execute on actual GPU hardware; mock-only testing is explicitly prohibited for safety-critical paths [1, 5]
4. **Heijunka** (Test Scheduling): GPU tests are load-leveled across available devices to prevent thermal throttling and ensure reproducible results [1, 6]
5. **Muda** (Eliminate False Passes): A test that cannot fail provides zero information; every test must have a demonstrated failure mode [7, 8]
6. **Kaizen** (Mutation-Driven Improvement): Mutation testing drives continuous refinement — surviving mutants trigger new edge-case tests until mutation score exceeds 80% [9, 10]

### Erlang OTP Principles

1. **Let It Crash** [11]: GPU test workers are supervised processes. A segfault, driver hang, or context corruption crashes the worker — the supervisor restarts it on a clean GPU context. No defensive try/catch around driver calls.
2. **Process Isolation** [12, 13]: Each edge-case test runs in a separate OS process with its own CUDA context. A poisoned context in one test cannot corrupt another.
3. **Supervision Trees** [14]: Test runners form a supervision hierarchy: Suite Supervisor → Framework Supervisor → Test Worker. Restart strategies are configurable per framework.
4. **Fail Fast** [11]: Tests that detect anomalous GPU state (temperature spike, ECC error, driver timeout) fail immediately rather than attempting recovery.

## 1. Architecture Overview

### 1.1 The GPU Edge-Case Problem [15, 16]

Per Nie et al. [15] and Hari et al. [16], GPU hardware exhibits failure modes invisible to standard testing:

```
GPU Failure Mode Taxonomy:
├── Silent Data Corruption (SDC): ~0.1% of GPU operations [16]
│   ├── Bit-flips in registers during high thermal load
│   ├── Shared memory bank conflict race conditions
│   └── Quantization rounding errors at boundary values
│
├── Driver State Corruption: ~2% of long-running workloads [15]
│   ├── Null context after OOM recovery
│   ├── Stale module handles after driver reset
│   └── Stream synchronization failures under load
│
├── PTX Compilation Failures: ~0.5% of novel kernels [17]
│   ├── JIT timeout on complex control flow
│   ├── Register spill cascades
│   └── Instruction scheduling failures
│
└── Context Lifecycle Bugs: ~5% of multi-context applications [18]
    ├── Context leak on error paths
    ├── Cross-context memory access
    └── Destruction ordering violations
```

**Design Principle**: Standard tests verify the happy path. Edge-case tests verify the failure path — which is where production systems actually break.

### 1.3 Design Constraints

| Constraint | Rationale | Citation |
|------------|-----------|----------|
| Real GPU required for edge tests | Mock drivers hide real failure modes (Genchi Genbutsu) | [1, 5] |
| Process isolation per test | Prevent context poisoning cross-contamination (Erlang) | [12, 13] |
| Re-exec isolation, not fork | `fork()` in multi-threaded CUDA processes deadlocks on driver mutexes; re-exec via `std::process::Command` guarantees clean address space | [12, 13, 18] |
| Zero false positives | A false positive destroys trust in the framework (Muda) | [7, 8] |
| Deterministic reproduction | Every failure must reproduce given same GPU + driver version | [19, 20] |
| Sub-second per-test overhead | Framework overhead must not dominate test execution (Heijunka) | [1, 6] |
| Compile-time null safety | Invalid GPU states unrepresentable in Rust types (Poka-Yoke) | [3, 4] |
| Falsifiable claims only | Every advertised capability has a falsification test (Popper) | [7, 8] |

## 2. Framework F1: Null Pointer Sentinel Fuzzer (TCE-NULL)

### 2.1 Motivation [15, 16]

CUDA driver functions return opaque handles (`CUdeviceptr`, `CUcontext`, `CUmodule`) that can become null or invalid through:
- Out-of-memory during allocation
- Driver reset after timeout (TDR on Windows, GPU reset on Linux)
- Context destruction while handles are still live

Per Hari et al. [16], ~15% of GPU-related crashes in production trace to null or dangling pointer dereference in driver handles.

### 2.2 Design: Sentinel Injection

```rust
/// Null-safe device pointer with compile-time validity tracking
/// Implements Poka-Yoke: invalid states are unrepresentable [3, 4]
pub struct NonNullDevicePtr<T> {
    inner: CUdeviceptr,
    _marker: PhantomData<T>,
}

impl<T> NonNullDevicePtr<T> {
    /// Create from raw pointer with runtime null check
    /// This is the ONLY entry point — all other constructors are private
    pub fn new(ptr: CUdeviceptr) -> Result<Self, NullSentinelError> {
        if ptr == 0 {
            Err(NullSentinelError::NullDevicePointer {
                allocation_site: std::panic::Location::caller(),
            })
        } else {
            Ok(Self { inner: ptr, _marker: PhantomData })
        }
    }
}

/// Sentinel fuzzer that systematically injects null values
/// at every CUDA driver API boundary
pub struct NullSentinelFuzzer {
    /// Which driver API calls to intercept
    targets: Vec<DriverApiTarget>,
    /// Injection strategy
    strategy: InjectionStrategy,
    /// Observed crash signatures
    crashes: Vec<CrashSignature>,
}

/// Injection strategies for null fuzzing [21]
pub enum InjectionStrategy {
    /// Replace every Nth allocation with null
    Periodic { interval: usize },
    /// Replace allocations that exceed size threshold
    SizeThreshold { max_bytes: u64 },
    /// Probabilistic injection (for stress testing)
    Probabilistic { rate: f64 },
    /// Targeted injection at specific call sites
    Targeted { sites: Vec<CallSite> },
}
```

### 2.3 Null Propagation Tracking

```

### 2.4 API Surface

```rust
/// Run null fuzzer against a kernel under test
pub fn fuzz_null_sentinels<F>(
    config: NullFuzzerConfig,
    kernel_under_test: F,
) -> NullFuzzerReport
where
    F: Fn(&GpuContext) -> Result<(), GpuError> + Send + 'static,
{
    // 1. Enumerate all CUDA driver API calls in kernel_under_test
    // 2. For each call, inject null return according to strategy
    // 3. Verify: either graceful Err() or Jidoka halt — never silent corruption
    // 4. Track null propagation paths
    todo!()
}

/// Null fuzzer report with propagation analysis
pub struct NullFuzzerReport {
    /// Total driver API calls intercepted
    pub total_calls: usize,
    /// Calls where null injection caused graceful error
    pub graceful_errors: usize,
    /// Calls where null injection caused crash (Jidoka triggered)
    pub jidoka_halts: usize,
    /// Calls where null injection caused SILENT corruption (DEFECT!)
    pub silent_corruptions: usize,
    /// Null propagation paths (call chain from injection to failure)
    pub propagation_paths: Vec<PropagationPath>,
}
```

## 3. Framework F2: Shared Memory Boundary Prober (TCE-SHMEM)

### 3.1 Motivation [22, 23]

GPU shared memory is a scarce resource (typically 48KB-164KB per SM depending on architecture). Boundary violations manifest as:
- Silent overwrites into adjacent shared memory allocations
- Bank conflict serialization degrading performance by 32×
- Race conditions between warps accessing overlapping regions

Per Li et al. [17], shared memory errors account for ~30% of GPU kernel correctness bugs in production codebases.

### 3.2 Boundary Probing Architecture

```

└──────────────────┴──────────────────┴───────────────────────┘

Prober injects sentinel values at tile boundaries and verifies
no cross-tile corruption occurs under concurrent warp access.
```

### 3.3 Bank Conflict Injection [22, 23]

```rust
/// Shared memory bank conflict injector
/// Per Ruetsch & Micikevicius [22] and Nath & Tomov [23]
pub struct BankConflictInjector {
    /// Number of shared memory banks (32 on all modern NVIDIA GPUs)
    num_banks: u32,
    /// Access patterns to test
    patterns: Vec<AccessPattern>,
}

/// Access patterns that trigger worst-case bank conflicts
pub enum AccessPattern {
    /// All threads access same bank (32-way conflict)
    FullConflict,
    /// Stride-2 access (16-way conflict)
    Stride2,
    /// Stride-32 access (no conflict, but tests boundary)
    Stride32,
    /// Random access within shared memory bounds
    Random { seed: u64 },
    /// Padding-based conflict avoidance (the fix — verify it works)
    PaddedAccess { pad_bytes: u32 },
}

/// Probe shared memory boundaries for off-by-one errors
pub struct SharedMemoryProber {
    /// Sentinel value written at boundaries
    sentinel: u32,  // 0xDEADBEEF
    /// Regions to probe
    regions: Vec<SharedMemoryRegion>,
    /// Bank conflict injector
    conflict_injector: BankConflictInjector,
}

impl SharedMemoryProber {
    /// Probe all boundaries between allocated shared memory regions
    /// Returns detected violations
    pub fn probe_boundaries(
        &self,
        kernel: &CompiledKernel,
        context: &GpuContext,
    ) -> BoundaryProbeReport {
        // 1. Instrument kernel shared memory with sentinel values at region boundaries
        // 2. Execute kernel with maximum thread count per block
        // 3. Read back sentinels — any overwritten sentinel = boundary violation
        // 4. Inject bank conflict patterns and measure serialization
        todo!()
    }
}

/// Boundary probe report
pub struct BoundaryProbeReport {
    /// Regions tested
    pub regions_probed: usize,
    /// Boundary violations detected (sentinel overwritten)
    pub boundary_violations: Vec<BoundaryViolation>,
    /// Bank conflicts detected with serialization factor
    pub bank_conflicts: Vec<BankConflictResult>,
    /// Peak shared memory usage (bytes)
    pub peak_shmem_bytes: u64,
    /// SM shared memory capacity (bytes)
    pub sm_shmem_capacity: u64,
}
```

### 3.4 Overflow Detection

```rust
/// Shared memory overflow detector
/// Detects when kernel requests more shared memory than SM provides
pub struct SharedMemoryOverflowDetector {
    /// SM shared memory limits by compute capability
    sm_limits: HashMap<ComputeCapability, u64>,
}

impl SharedMemoryOverflowDetector {
    /// Verify kernel shared memory allocation fits within SM limits
    pub fn check_allocation(
        &self,
        kernel: &CompiledKernel,
        compute_cap: ComputeCapability,
    ) -> Result<(), SharedMemoryOverflow> {
        let requested = kernel.shared_memory_bytes();
        let limit = self.sm_limits.get(&compute_cap)
            .ok_or(SharedMemoryOverflow::UnknownComputeCapability(compute_cap))?;

        if requested > *limit {
            Err(SharedMemoryOverflow::ExceedsLimit {
                requested,
                limit: *limit,
                compute_capability: compute_cap,
            })
        } else {
            Ok(())
        }
    }
}
```

## 4. Framework F3: Context Lifecycle Chaos Testing (TCE-LIFECYCLE)

### 4.1 Motivation [18, 24]

CUDA contexts are heavyweight OS-level resources. Lifecycle bugs are the most common source of GPU resource leaks:

```
Context Lifecycle State Machine:
┌─────────┐  cuCtxCreate()  ┌─────────┐  cuCtxPushCurrent()  ┌─────────┐
│  None   │────────────────▶│ Created │─────────────────────▶│ Active  │

                                 │                                │
                                 │ cuCtxDestroy()                 │ cuCtxPopCurrent()
                                 ▼                                ▼

                            └─────────┘                      └────┬────┘
                                 ▲                                │
                                 │          cuCtxDestroy()        │
                                 └────────────────────────────────┘

Chaos Testing injects faults at EVERY transition:
  - Create with invalid device → verify clean error
  - Destroy while kernels in-flight → verify graceful drain
  - Push/pop interleaving across threads → verify no corruption
  - Multiple destroys on same context → verify idempotent
  - Destroy ordering permutation → verify no dangling references
```

### 4.2 Chaos Injection Engine

```rust
/// Context lifecycle chaos testing engine
/// Inspired by Netflix Chaos Monkey [25] applied to GPU contexts
pub struct LifecycleChaosEngine {
    /// Chaos scenarios to execute
    scenarios: Vec<ChaosScenario>,
    /// Supervision strategy for crashed workers
    supervision: SupervisionStrategy,
    /// Maximum concurrent contexts to stress-test
    max_concurrent_contexts: usize,
}

/// Chaos scenarios for context lifecycle testing
pub enum ChaosScenario {
    /// Create N contexts, destroy in random order
    RandomDestructionOrder { count: usize, seed: u64 },
    /// Create context, launch kernel, destroy before kernel completes
    DestroyDuringExecution,
    /// Rapidly create/destroy contexts (leak detection)
    RapidCycling { iterations: usize },
    /// Push context on thread A, pop on thread B
    CrossThreadPushPop,
    /// Create context with every possible flag combination
    FlagPermutation,
    /// Destroy context twice (idempotence check)
    DoubleDestroy,
    /// Create context on device 0, use on device 1 (if multi-GPU)
    CrossDeviceUse,
    /// OOM during context creation (resource exhaustion)
    ResourceExhaustion { context_count: usize },
}

/// Per Erlang OTP restart strategies [14]
pub enum SupervisionStrategy {
    /// Restart only the failed worker
    OneForOne {
        max_restarts: usize,
        within_seconds: u64,
    },
    /// Restart the failed worker and all workers started after it
    RestForOne {
        max_restarts: usize,
        within_seconds: u64,
    },
    /// Restart all workers (nuclear option for poisoned GPU state)
    OneForAll {
        max_restarts: usize,
        within_seconds: u64,
    },
}

impl LifecycleChaosEngine {
    /// Execute all chaos scenarios with supervision
    pub fn run(&self, gpu: &GpuDevice) -> ChaosReport {
        // For each scenario:
        // 1. Re-exec worker process via std::process::Command (Erlang process isolation [12, 13])
        //    (NOT fork() — CUDA driver mutexes deadlock in forked children)
        // 2. Worker initializes fresh CUDA context in clean address space
        // 3. Execute chaos scenario in isolated CUDA context
        // 4. Monitor worker: crash → supervisor restarts per strategy
        // 5. Verify: no context leaks, no dangling handles, no GPU state corruption
        todo!()
    }
}
```

### 4.3 Leak Detection

```rust
/// Context leak detector using CUDA driver query APIs
/// Implements continuous monitoring (Kaizen [1])
pub struct ContextLeakDetector {
    /// Baseline context count before test
    baseline_count: usize,
    /// Baseline GPU memory usage before test
    baseline_memory: u64,
}

impl ContextLeakDetector {
    /// Snapshot current GPU state as baseline

## 5. Framework F4: Quantization Format Parity Oracle (TCE-QUANT)

### 5.1 Motivation [26, 27, 28]

The Sovereign AI Stack supports multiple quantization formats (Q4_K, Q5_K, Q6_K, Int4, Int8). Parity between CPU and GPU implementations is critical — a divergence means the same model produces different outputs depending on execution backend.

Per Xiao et al. [26], quantization boundary values (min/max representable, zero point, scale factor limits) are the primary source of CPU/GPU divergence.

  Int8:  ε = 1e-3  (8-bit, near-lossless)

    let twice = backend.dequantize(&backend.quantize(&once, format), format);
    once.iter().zip(twice.iter()).all(|(a, b)| (a - b).abs() < f64::EPSILON as f32)

## 6. Framework F5: PTX Compilation Poison Trap (TCE-PTX)

### 6.1 Motivation [17, 29]

PTX is compiled to machine code (SASS) by the NVIDIA JIT compiler at runtime. The JIT compiler can fail silently on malformed PTX, producing kernels that execute but produce incorrect results. Per NVIDIA's PTX ISA specification [29], the JIT compiler's behavior on invalid PTX is "undefined" — which in practice means silent corruption.

### 6.2 PTX Mutation Strategy

Expected outcomes:
  Mutations 1-3: JIT should compile; output must differ from original
  Mutation 4:    JIT should compile; output must match original
  Mutation 5:    JIT should compile; output differs when predicate true
  Mutation 6:    JIT should reject OR kernel should crash (Jidoka)
  Mutation 7:    Race condition — non-deterministic output (detected by repeated execution)

Restart Strategy Rationale:
  F1 (NULL):      one_for_one  — null fuzzer tests are independent
  F2 (SHMEM):     rest_for_one — boundary probes share SM state
  F3 (LIFECYCLE): one_for_all  — context chaos may poison GPU globally
  F4 (QUANT):     one_for_one  — format tests are independent
  F5 (PTX):       one_for_one  — PTX mutations are independent

## 8. Falsification Protocol

### 8.1 Popperian Methodology [7, 8]

Per Popper [7], a scientific hypothesis has value only insofar as it is falsifiable. Applied to software: a test framework claim is meaningful only if there exists a test that could disprove it. This specification adopts a strict falsification protocol — every capability claim in this document has a corresponding falsification test.

Per Lakatos [8], research programmes degenerate when auxiliary hypotheses are added ad hoc to protect the core theory from falsification. Applied to testing: if an edge-case test fails and the response is to add an exception rather than fix the code, the test framework has degenerated.

### 8.2 Falsification Checklist (50 Points)

Every claim below is **falsifiable** — there exists a concrete test that could disprove it. Claims that cannot be falsified are excluded from this specification.

#### F1: Null Pointer Sentinel Fuzzer (TCE-NULL)

| # | Claim | Falsification Test |
|---|-------|--------------------|
| 1 | `NonNullDevicePtr::new(0)` returns `Err` | Call with `ptr = 0`, assert `Err(NullSentinelError)` |
| 2 | `NonNullDevicePtr::new(valid)` returns `Ok` | Call with valid `CUdeviceptr`, assert `Ok` |
| 3 | Null injection on `cuMemAlloc` triggers Jidoka halt | Intercept `cuMemAlloc`, return 0, assert test suite halts |
| 4 | Null propagation is tracked to crash site | Inject null at allocation, verify report contains full call chain |
| 5 | Silent corruption from null pointer is detected | Inject null into kernel param, verify no silent wrong output |
| 6 | Periodic injection strategy produces deterministic results | Run twice with same seed, assert identical reports |
| 7 | Size-threshold strategy only injects above threshold | Set threshold to 1MB, allocate 512KB, verify no injection |
| 8 | Fuzzer report counts match actual injections | Count injections independently, compare with report totals |
| 9 | Worker crash from null dereference triggers supervisor restart | Inject null that causes segfault, verify worker restarted |
| 10 | No false positives: valid code produces zero `silent_corruptions` | Run fuzzer on known-correct kernel, assert `silent_corruptions == 0` |

#### F2: Shared Memory Boundary Prober (TCE-SHMEM)

| # | Claim | Falsification Test |
|---|-------|--------------------|
| 11 | Sentinel value `0xDEADBEEF` at boundary is not overwritten by correct kernel | Run correct kernel, read back sentinel, assert unchanged |
| 12 | Off-by-one write past tile boundary overwrites sentinel | Introduce deliberate off-by-one, assert sentinel changed |
| 13 | 32-way bank conflict is detected and measured | Access all threads to same bank, verify `serialization_factor ≥ 30` |
| 14 | Padded access pattern eliminates bank conflicts | Use +1 padding, verify `serialization_factor == 1` |
| 15 | Shared memory overflow is caught before kernel launch | Request 256KB shared memory on 48KB SM, assert error |
| 16 | Multi-warp concurrent access does not corrupt sentinels | Run with max warps per block, verify sentinel integrity |
| 17 | Bank conflict report distinguishes N-way conflict levels | Test stride-1, stride-2, stride-32, verify distinct serialization factors |
| 18 | Prober works across compute capabilities (SM 7.0 to SM 9.0) | Test on multiple GPU architectures if available |
| 19 | Zero false positives on kernels with correct shared memory usage | Run on 10 known-correct kernels, assert zero violations |
| 20 | Peak shared memory usage is accurately reported | Compare report with `cudaFuncGetAttributes` shared memory value |

#### F3: Context Lifecycle Chaos Testing (TCE-LIFECYCLE)

| # | Claim | Falsification Test |
|---|-------|--------------------|
| 21 | Random destruction order does not leak contexts | Create 100 contexts, destroy in random order, verify zero leaks |
| 22 | Destroying context during kernel execution drains gracefully | Launch long kernel, destroy context, verify clean shutdown |
| 23 | Rapid create/destroy cycling does not leak memory | Cycle 10,000 times, verify memory returns to baseline |
| 24 | Cross-thread push/pop does not corrupt context stack | Push on thread A, pop on thread B, verify stack consistency |
| 25 | Double destroy does not crash (idempotence) | Destroy same context twice, verify graceful error on second |
| 26 | Cross-device context use is detected and rejected | Create on device 0, use on device 1, verify error |
| 27 | Resource exhaustion returns clean OOM error | Create contexts until OOM, verify no leaked partial contexts |
| 28 | Supervisor restarts crashed lifecycle worker | Inject fatal context error, verify worker restarted |
| 29 | `one_for_all` strategy restarts all siblings on crash | Crash one worker, verify all workers restarted |
| 30 | Leak detector has ≤1MB tolerance for driver overhead | Allocate exactly at baseline, verify no false leak report |

#### F4: Quantization Format Parity Oracle (TCE-QUANT)

| # | Claim | Falsification Test |
|---|-------|--------------------|
| 31 | Q4_K CPU/GPU outputs agree within ε = 1e-2 | Run on 1000 random vectors, assert max divergence < 1e-2 |
| 32 | Q5_K CPU/GPU outputs agree within ε = 5e-3 | Run on 1000 random vectors, assert max divergence < 5e-3 |
| 33 | Q6_K CPU/GPU outputs agree within ε = 2e-3 | Run on 1000 random vectors, assert max divergence < 2e-3 |
| 34 | Int8 CPU/GPU outputs agree within ε = 1e-3 | Run on 1000 random vectors, assert max divergence < 1e-3 |
| 35 | Boundary value `f32::NAN` is handled identically on CPU and GPU | Quantize NaN on both, compare behavior |
| 36 | Boundary value `f32::INFINITY` is handled identically | Quantize infinity on both, compare behavior |
| 37 | Signed zero `(-0.0)` quantizes identically on CPU and GPU | Quantize -0.0 on both, compare bit patterns |
| 38 | Roundtrip idempotence: `q(dq(q(dq(x)))) == q(dq(x))` | Test on 10,000 random inputs per format |
| 39 | Parity oracle detects intentional 1-ULP divergence | Inject 1-ULP error in GPU output, verify oracle flags it |
| 40 | Zero false positives on reference implementation | Run oracle where CPU and GPU are same implementation, assert zero divergence |

#### F5: PTX Compilation Poison Trap (TCE-PTX)

| # | Claim | Falsification Test |
|---|-------|--------------------|
| 41 | Opcode swap mutation (`add` → `sub`) changes output | Apply mutation, execute, compare with original output |
| 42 | Type mismatch mutation (`f32` → `f64`) is caught by JIT or changes output | Apply mutation, verify either compile error or different output |
| 43 | Barrier removal mutation causes non-deterministic output | Remove `bar.sync`, run 100 times, detect output variance |
| 44 | Memory space violation is caught by JIT compiler | Change `ld.shared` to `ld.global`, verify compile or runtime error |
| 45 | Dead code injection (NOP) does not change output | Inject 10 NOPs, verify output identical to original |
| 46 | Predicate inversion changes output when predicate fires | Invert guard predicate, verify output differs |
| 47 | PTX verifier rejects malformed PTX before JIT | Submit PTX with missing `.version`, verify `PtxVerificationError` |
| 48 | `VerifiedPtx` cannot be constructed without verification | Attempt to construct `VerifiedPtx` directly, verify compile error |
| 49 | Mutation score exceeds 80% on trueno-gpu kernels | Run full mutation suite, verify ≥80% mutants killed |
| 50 | Zero false positives: un-mutated PTX produces identical output | Run original PTX through poison trap, verify zero killed |

### 8.3 Falsification Coverage Metric

```rust
/// Falsification coverage: percentage of claims with passing falsification tests
/// Target: 100% — every claim in the spec has a corresponding test
pub struct FalsificationReport {
    /// Total falsifiable claims
    pub total_claims: usize,    // 50
    /// Claims with passing falsification tests
    pub verified: usize,
    /// Claims with failing falsification tests (spec violation!)
    pub violated: usize,
    /// Claims with no falsification test yet (technical debt)
    pub untested: usize,
}

impl FalsificationReport {
    /// Coverage percentage
    pub fn coverage(&self) -> f64 {
        self.verified as f64 / self.total_claims as f64 * 100.0
    }

    /// Is the specification fully falsified?
    pub fn is_complete(&self) -> bool {
        self.untested == 0 && self.violated == 0
    }
}
```

## 12. Thermal and ECC Health Monitoring

### 12.1 GPU Health Guard [15, 30]

Edge-case tests stress GPUs beyond normal workloads. Thermal throttling and ECC errors during testing invalidate results (Muda — waste of test execution).

```rust
/// GPU health monitor — runs as dedicated supervision tree child
/// Per Nie et al. [15] — GPU error rates increase 10× above 85°C

    /// Temperature threshold (Celsius) — pause tests above this

    /// Temperature threshold — abort tests above this
    thermal_abort_threshold: u32,  // Default: 90°C
    /// ECC error threshold — abort after this many uncorrectable errors
    ecc_abort_threshold: u32,      // Default: 1 (zero tolerance)
    /// Monitoring interval
    poll_interval_ms: u64,         // Default: 500ms
}

impl GpuHealthMonitor {
    /// Poll GPU health and return action
    pub fn check(&self, device: &GpuDevice) -> HealthAction {
        let temp = device.temperature();
        let ecc = device.uncorrectable_ecc_errors();

        if ecc >= self.ecc_abort_threshold {
            HealthAction::Abort(format!(
                "ECC errors detected: {} (threshold: {}). GPU may be failing. [15, 16]",
                ecc, self.ecc_abort_threshold
            ))
        } else if temp >= self.thermal_abort_threshold {
            HealthAction::Abort(format!(
                "GPU temperature {}°C exceeds abort threshold {}°C. [15]",

                temp, self.thermal_pause_threshold
            ))
        } else {

|---------|------|--------|---------|
| 1.0 | 2026-02-02 | Batuta Team | Initial specification: 5 frameworks (TCE-NULL, TCE-SHMEM, TCE-LIFECYCLE, TCE-QUANT, TCE-PTX), 50-point falsification protocol, 12 PMAT tickets, 32 peer-reviewed citations |

**Next Steps**:
1. Create `trueno-cuda-edge` sub-crate in trueno workspace
2. Implement supervision tree and process isolation (TCE-012) — foundation for all frameworks
3. Implement `NonNullDevicePtr<T>` guard type (TCE-001) — Poka-Yoke null safety
4. Write falsification tests for all 50 claims
5. Integrate as `dev-dependency` in `realizar` and `trueno-gpu` first
