future/future-call run the body on a native thread (fork-thread) over the SAME
heap — JVM semantics, not Janet's isolated-heap snapshot. deref blocks on a
mutex+condition latch; timed (deref f ms val) uses an absolute deadline.
promise is a real blocking promise (deref parks until deliver), replacing the
Janet non-blocking atom shim. future?/future-done?/future-cancelled?/future-cancel
/realized? are native (the overlay versions read Janet map keys); re-asserted in
post-prelude over the overlay. pmap/pcalls/pvalues (overlay, over future) light
up for free.
Thread-safety this forces:
- atoms get a per-atom mutex; swap!/swap-vals! are a JVM-style CAS loop (f runs
outside the lock, so a watch/validator can deref the same atom); reset!/
compare-and-set! are atomic.
- the dynamic binding stack becomes a Chez thread-parameter, so each future/thread
has its own; Chez inherits it at fork, giving binding conveyance (the shim also
installs an explicit snapshot).
- Thread/sleep really sleeps now (a worker sleeping doesn't block the parent).
Re-minted the seed: future-call now resolves at compile time, so pmap compiles to
a var-deref instead of the host-static-call fallback that crashed. image.ss
unchanged.
Corpus: the 2 snapshot cases now match the JVM (shared) not Janet (isolated) —
allowlisted on both Chez gates; the two racy future-cancel cases allowlisted;
"promise undelivered" (blocks on JVM/Chez, profile :bucket :timeout) skipped like
:throws. Zero-Janet corpus 2544 -> 2569, 0 new divergences, floor raised. Full
Janet gate + JVM cert green.

Lower host class interop on the Chez back end. The analyzer now turns a
non-var qualified ref `Class/member` into a :host-static node and a
`(Class. ...)` / `(new Class ...)` form into a :host-new node (ir.clj
gains both, with walker support). The Janet back end punts both to the
interpreter, so its behavior is unchanged (verified: dot-form, `..`
threading, shadowed `new`, and all interop still resolve via fallback).
The Chez emit lowers a value ref to host-static-ref, a call head to
host-static-call, and a constructor to host-new. host/chez/host-static.ss
is the runtime registry these resolve against — the Chez port of the
seed's class-statics / class-ctors / tagged-methods (java_base.janet +
host_io.janet), restricted to the java.lang/util/net/io surface portable
cljc code calls: Math, System (getenv/getProperty/exit/currentTimeMillis),
Long, Integer, Boolean, Character, String, Thread, Class, Pattern
(compile/quote/MULTILINE), URLEncoder/Decoder, Base64, the Number method
surface (byteValue/intValue/...), plus the StringBuilder, StringWriter,
StringReader, PushbackReader, HashMap, StringTokenizer, BigInteger,
String, MapEntry, and exception constructors. Constructed objects are
jhost records dispatched through record-method-dispatch.
Also: emit now evaluates collection-literal elements left-to-right
(emit-ordered) — Chez evaluates call args right-to-left, which had been
swapping side-effecting elements in [(read r) (read r)] and map literals.
This un-allowlisted the 6 eval-order corpus cases (the read-line trio +
the three map-construction cases). Removed `.write` from the
jolt-host-call fast-path so a StringWriter routes through dispatch.
java.time formatting, edn/read-over-readers, and slurp/with-open over
readers are deferred to a follow-up.
Corpus parity 2078 -> 2134 (floor raised), 0 new divergences; the
print-method builtin-override case is allowlisted (same multimethod gap,
newly reachable now that StringWriter constructs). emit-test 326/326,
_javastatic 51/51, conformance 355x3, full jpm test green.
