Folding ABI as a relational substrate: DuckDB differential harness, tiled execution, joins and distinct counts as one-program folds

[AdaWorldAPI]

Proof that the mask-risc / ndarray::simd fold algebra is a general relational substrate, driven by a DuckDB 1.5.5 semantic oracle over a committed ERP-shaped fixture (partner 64 / doc 512 / line 4096, fks are row addresses). Every case runs as ONE program with no population-sized intermediate; the only population-sized state anywhere is one fold's own accumulator, and it is reported as a number.

Harness. 16 relational cases (selection, AND/OR/NOT, IN, aggregates, projection, range, GROUP BY, two joins, a distinct count) through Quack → mask-risc. Expected values are never hand-edited (tests/duckdb/oracle.py). METRIC reports tile_words, scratch_bytes, alloc_bytes_exec, population_state_bytes, fixture_view_bytes, programs.

Tiled execution. The executor runs every program tile by tile over a scratch of tile_words_for(n_rows) (8 words = 512 rows) × slots; sinks that accumulate across tiles are zeroed once. Scratch is ALU state, never a population; Keep lands its mask in the demanded Out::Mask.

Joins without a partner mask. Pred::EqU32Via { fk, key, v } reads partner.country through line.partner_id inside the line fold (ndarray eq_u32_via_to_mask); Terminal::GroupSumViaI32 does the same for a foreign group key. join_sum_country and join_group_sum_country are one program each with no partner-side program and no kept partner mask; the partner table is read only through Foreign::lanes. MaskOp::Gather / Filter::Semijoin survive only over a RESIDENT foreign plane (documented precondition, one unit test); the harness never builds a plane from a Keep.

Distinct count: ordered lane or refusal, never a manufactured coordinate system. Terminal::CountKeyRunsU32 folds COUNT(DISTINCT key) on a non-decreasing key lane with an O(1) carry (Out::None). The executor enforces the order over every row, selected or not, and returns ExecError::LaneNotOrdered { lane } on the first descent; the reference oracle refuses identically. Agg::CountDistinctOrderedU32 is the only Quack lowering; ScatterCountU32 is HELD (not a lowering target, kept as the instrument for tests/distinct.rs' pigeonhole falsifier: every pair of key sets diverges under some suffix, so no exact distinct fold under arbitrary order has sub-population state). join_count_docs_with_posted runs two arms against the same DuckDB 511: the fixture's line.doc_id lane is unordered → REFUSED (population_state_bytes=0); an ordered view of the same lane, supplied by the harness as a semantic check only (its bytes are reported as fixture_view_bytes, no sort is smuggled into the executor) → 511 via CountKeyRunsU32.

Rotation is a coordinate map, not a mask op (tests/rotation.rs): ρ(A&B) = ρ(A)&ρ(B), reducers invariant, strided column reads through eq_u32_strided_to_mask equal the canonical mask through ρ. No rotated buffer, no MaskOp::Rotate.

Measured (single-threaded, counting allocator), all equal to DuckDB:

join_sum_country                                 programs=1 ops=3 tile_words=8 population_state_bytes=0
join_group_sum_country                           programs=1
join_count_docs_with_posted                      REFUSED terminal=CountKeyRunsU32 reason=LaneNotOrdered population_state_bytes=0
join_count_docs_with_posted_ordered_view_given   programs=1 ops=1 tile_words=8 population_state_bytes=0 fixture_view_bytes=163840
group_sum_cc                                     programs=1 ops=1  (was programs=8 ops=9)
conj_count                                       scratch_words 129 → 17

Depends on AdaWorldAPI/ndarray#318; this repo's CI checks out ndarray master, so clippy/tests here stay red on E0432 for the new kernel names until that merges.

[AdaWorldAPI]

CI red on 663b8792 (clippy, and Rust Tests will follow) is the ordering dependency, not a defect in this diff: E0432 unresolved imports ndarray::simd::{mask_gather_u32, mask_scatter_or_u32, masked_group_sum_i32} — this repo's CI checks out ndarray master, which does not carry them yet. They land in AdaWorldAPI/ndarray#318 (green on both its commits). Merge order: ndarray#318 → this PR. Nothing to port here; the same three names resolve locally against the ndarray branch, where mask-risc / quack / the DuckDB harness are all green.

899-903: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Make exactly_one_materialiser parse complete function signatures.

CRATE_SOURCES includes reference.rs, and L5 requires every production pub fn returning an owning collection to be listed. reference_scratch_with_foreign returns Result<Vec<Vec<u64>>, ExecError>, but its return type is on a later line. The current test checks Vec< only on the pub fn line, so this function is not counted.

// Join the signature before the body so a multi-line `pub fn` is read
// whole: the law is "one materialiser", not "one materialiser per line".
for decl in production.split("pub fn ").skip(1) {
    let sig = decl.split('{').next().unwrap_or("");
    let returns = sig.split("->").nth(1).unwrap_or("");
    if returns.contains("Vec<") {
        let name = sig.split('(').next().unwrap_or(sig).trim();
        found.push(name.to_string());
    }
}

Add reference_scratch_with_foreign to the exemption list.

path to reject every sink except Out::Mask, rather than only Out::None, while

- Around line 249-254: Update the documentation comment above the line-table
lane definitions to remove the nonexistent col::partner link and incorrect claim
that partner is exposed as Planes. State that partner lanes are accessed through
line.partner_id via Foreign::lanes, while doc remains CSV-only for the oracle.
