FABRIC-3.md §XXXV.12: closes two real gaps found by walking the disk-to-
PDF pipeline end to end. (1) doe_trial_slot_t had no integrity check of
its own -- 64 slots share one devblock via a read-modify-write, so a
crash mid-write to any slot could silently corrupt its siblings with
nothing to catch it. Added an 8-byte CRC (same discipline the control
header already had), computed/verified the same way. (2) The campaign
itself had no crash-resume -- a reboot always restarted the whole
18-trial loop from index 0 even with good persisted data already on
disk. Since the trial matrix is fully deterministic from (seed, n-reps),
resuming needs no persisted "which trials ran" state, just a count:
DOE-RESUME-COUNT (new kernel primitive, same pattern as
DOE-PERSIST-TRIAL) walks the ring counting CRC-valid records for a given
ISA; MU-EXEC-CAMPAIGN's signature changes to accept a start-idx and seeds
MU-RUN-ID/the DO loop from it. Each RUN-*-CAMPAIGN entry word now calls
DOE-RESUME-COUNT before launching. Both block-namespace-checked to fit
existing headroom before committing to the design -- no new blocks
needed.
Real bug caught by the build, not shipped: an implicit compiler-inserted
alignment byte before slot_crc silently broke the hand-computed trailing
pad size (doe_trial_slot_size_check failed to compile). Fixed with an
explicit alignment field, matching log_slot_t's own zero-implicit-
padding discipline.
extract_doe_region.py now verifies both CRCs with the REAL CRC-64/XZ
algorithm from block_subsystem.c's compute_crc64() (ported and verified
bit-for-bit against a native C reference this session), replacing
§XXXV.11's incorrect guessed implementation.
Verified: clean compile on all 3 ISAs (amd64/aarch64/riscv64 -- amd64
verified via isolated build only, not boot, since the real per-ISA
campaign is currently live on the only QEMU instance this project's own
rule allows), both capsules pass mkcapsule --lint, CRC64 bit-exact via
native reference. Live boot-verification explicitly deferred until that
campaign finishes or is interrupted -- not claimed as tested when it
wasn't. Found (not missed) a real compatibility consequence: the running
campaign's data is in the old pre-CRC format, so it reads as "corrupt"
under the new extractor and DOE-RESUME-COUNT will resume it from 0, not
mid-campaign -- no data loss, cheap redundant re-run of ~1-2 trials.

FABRIC-3.md §XXXV.3/.4 designed this and it was never built -- two live
campaigns got launched relying entirely on a live serial-log tail before
this was caught. doe_region.c/.h mirrors log_region.c's own growable-ring
pattern (own devblock_from_top fence at 98, past log_region's ceiling at
97) to persist one trial-summary record per completed trial straight to
disk/artemis.img, surviving past QEMU exit with no host required.
Verified end to end: booted amd64, called DOE-PERSIST-TRIAL at the
console, clean BYE, then read the raw disk bytes back with QEMU fully
dead -- confirmed the exact values passed in. Wired into both
multiuser-doe.4th and per-isa-doe.4th's trial markers. Clean build, zero
new warnings, all 3 ISAs; mkcapsule --lint passes both edited capsules.
FABRIC-3.md §XXXV.10 documents the fix and the root-cause correction: two
campaigns were launched on an unbuilt persistence design before this was
caught and fixed.
