Punch list §25 item 3.5 complete.
stadium_admit(candidate) places into an unused cell if one exists (no
comparison needed), otherwise finds the least-dense resident -- skipping
pinned and contains-gated patrons, which are never eviction candidates
-- and evicts it only if the candidate is strictly denser, per §19.3.
stadium_evict(cell_index) dispatches the departing patron's behaviour
before clearing its slot, per §17.2.
Caught a real bug before it ran: the first draft used contains == 0 to
mean "holds nothing," but cell index 0 is a valid index (Hera, item
3.6). Fixed with a proper sentinel, STADIUM_CONTAINS_NONE (UINT32_MAX).
A second-pass review found mass was not accounted for: both functions
handled exactly one cell regardless of the candidate's stated mass,
which leaks cells on eviction of any mass > 1 patron and breaks
capacity conservation. Fixed by refusing any candidate with mass != 1
-- multi-cell patrons need the per-VM free lists item 3.2 already
deferred (§22.3), not built here.
Documented, not fixed: the discriminator bitmap can't distinguish free
from continuation cells, so the free-cell scan reads continuation-cell
payload bytes under the header layout -- latent since nothing creates
continuation cells yet, and the mass != 1 refusal keeps it provably
latent. Superseded by the free list when it exists.
Unexercised at runtime: nothing calls either function yet (no real
patron kind is wired to the Stadium). No self-test added -- filling
~74,000+ cells to reach the eviction-on-full branch was judged
impractical, following item 2.2's own precedent for its unexercised
fleet-full path.
Verified: three-architecture boot (amd64, aarch64, riscv64), all

Punch list §25 item 3.4 complete.
stadium_density(cell_index) reads a header's heat and mass and returns
heat / mass -- a division on demand from fields already stored in the
cell, matching §19.3's "read, not computed by a scheduler" literally.
Stays valid Q48.16 without a special fixed-point routine, since heat
is already Q48.16 and mass is a plain integer divisor.
mass == 0 and an out-of-range cell_index both return 0 rather than
dividing by zero -- an empty or never-admitted slot has no footprint
to be dense within.
Deliberately not built here, per the item's own wording: finding the
densest or least-dense resident (§19.3's admission/eviction
comparison) is item 3.5's scope, not this one's. Nothing calls
stadium_density() yet either.
Verified: three-architecture boot (amd64, aarch64, riscv64), all
reaching ok> with identical dict_hash=0x3d4e1daf289da94f matching the
item-3.3 baseline.

Punch list §25 item 3.3 complete.
StadiumBehaviour (stadium.h) enumerates exactly the four tags §18.3
already names -- MIGRATE, DELIVER, EXPIRE, COOL -- mapped from §17.1's
patron table: blocks->MIGRATE, messages->DELIVER, ACLs->EXPIRE, words
and VMs both->COOL. Nothing invented; the tag set and mapping were
already in the document.
stadium_dispatch(cell_index, behaviour) dispatches on the tag only,
never asks what kind of patron departed. Handlers are stubs -- the
real actions belong to subsystems not yet migrated onto the Stadium
(Phase 4). Nothing calls stadium_dispatch() yet; item 3.5 is its first
consumer.
The switch is exhaustive with no default case, making §13's "closed
enumeration, fixed at build time" a compiler-enforced property under
this project's -Wall -Werror rather than just prose. Verified live:
temporarily deleted the COOL case, rebuild failed with
error: enumeration value 'STADIUM_BEHAVIOUR_COOL' not handled in
switch [-Werror=switch], restored it, confirmed clean again.
The header's behaviour field stays uint8_t, not the enum type itself,
since C does not guarantee an enum's underlying type and that field's
offset is load-bearing for item 3.1's validated 64-byte layout.

Punch list §25 item 3.2 complete.
stadium_boot_init() (src/starkernel/vm/stadium.c) sizes the global
cell array at boot from a real memory-budget query rather than a
hardcoded count: pmm_get_stats().free_bytes at the point of
allocation, times the new STADIUM_MEMORY_PERCENT Kconfig symbol
(default 1%), rounded down to whole 64-byte cells. Matches §17.6's
position (b) literally. Also allocates the header/continuation
discriminator bitmap item 3.1 declared but did not allocate. Both are
kmalloc'd and explicitly zero-filled (kmalloc does not zero).
Called from kernel_main.c immediately before sk_vm_bootstrap_parity(),
i.e. before any VM exists (§6). Failure is soft -- logs and continues,
does not halt boot -- matching the existing precedent one line below
it (VM bootstrap parity failure does the same).
Added a "Stadium: N cells (M KB)" boot console line at the allocation
site so the acceptance logs are evidence the array was actually
allocated, not just that the kernel still boots -- the same blind spot
item 3.1's uncompiled-header gap exposed.
Verified: three-architecture boot (amd64, aarch64, riscv64), all
reaching ok> with identical dict_hash=0x3d4e1daf289da94f matching the
item-3.1 baseline, and the Stadium boot line confirmed present in all
three serial logs (amd64: 74234 cells/4639 KB, aarch64: 161329
cells/10083 KB, riscv64: 76122 cells/4757 KB).
Not built here, reported per §25.0 rule 3: per-VM free lists (§22.3)
-- granted when Hera assigns quota, not this item's scope.

Punch list §25 item 3.1 complete.
Defines StadiumPatronHeader and StadiumContinuationCell in new
include/starkernel/vm/stadium.h, unioned as StadiumCell per §3's
closed two-valued union. src/starkernel/vm/stadium.c added to
Makefile.starkernel's LOADER_EXTRA_SRCS/KERNEL_EXTRA_SRCS so the
header's compile-time size checks are actually compiled, not merely
included by something that never builds.
Discriminator ruled an external side bitmap (Captain Bob), not a
header field -- amended into §3 and §23.3 before this code was
written. Item 3.1 declares the bitmap's purpose/indexing in a comment
only; allocating it is item 3.2's scope.
Both cell shapes counted for real at exactly 64 bytes with zero
compiler-inserted padding (three C99-portable negative-array-size
assertions -- no _Static_assert, this project targets C99). Header
matches §23.3's original 32+32 split unchanged, since the
discriminator moving outside the cell left nothing to compete for that
space. Continuation cell matches item 1.12's 4+60 figure unchanged for
the same reason.
Verified the size assertion is actually live: broke it to 63,
confirmed the build failed with the expected negative-array-size
error, restored it, confirmed a clean compile.
Verified: three-architecture boot (amd64, aarch64, riscv64), all
reaching ok> with identical dict_hash=0x3d4e1daf289da94f matching the
item-2.2 baseline. Confirmed stadium.o present in both obj/loader/vm
and obj/kernel/vm post-build on amd64, closing the gap the item-2.2 WIP
exposed (an uncompiled header proves nothing).
Left open, not fabricated: §23.4 #2 ("does a typical message fit in
one cell") is unanswerable today -- no message patron struct exists
anywhere in this tree yet.
