+  # Windows codegen parity MEASUREMENT + no-regression GATE (unified, sharded 16x).
+  # Runs the full codegen suite cross-compiled to windows-x86_64 and executed under
+  # Wine, then does two things from that single run:
+  #   1. MEASURE (informational): emits passed / failed / parity% for the shard to
+  #      the job summary, so the overall Windows parity picture stays visible.
+  #   2. GATE (blocking): fails the shard iff any test in the curated allow-list
+  #      (`tests/codegen/support/windows_codegen_allowlist.txt`, the tests that
+  #      currently PASS on Windows) failed. Tests NOT in the allow-list -- the known
+  #      failures AND any brand-new / native-only fixtures -- never fail the gate, so
+  #      Windows parity can only improve, never regress.
+  # The nextest run step is `continue-on-error: true` so ordinary (non-allow-listed)
+  # failures do not fail the job; only the post-run gate step decides pass/fail via
+  # `actual_failures ∩ allow_list`. The aggregating `windows-codegen-gate` job (which
+  # needs all 16 shards) is the single entry wired into the `test` gate.
+  # Interpreting a "pass": a real Windows pass OR a graceful skip (harness skip when
+  # MinGW/Wine are missing, or a raw-asm exit-harness fixture that cannot target
+  # Windows). A crashing `.exe` cannot stall a shard: the `ci` profile's 60s

+### Windows x86_64 (MSx64) ABI reference
+
+The Windows PE target reuses the SysV-shaped native codegen and bridges to the
+Microsoft x64 ABI inside per-symbol shims under `src/codegen_support/runtime/win32/`.
+When writing or reviewing a Win32 shim, hold these rules:
+
+- **Integer args**: `rcx`, `rdx`, `r8`, `r9`, then the stack. Every call reserves a
+  32-byte **shadow space** the callee owns; the 5th and later integer args go at
+  `[rsp+32]`, `[rsp+40]`, … (above the shadow), never in more registers.
+- **Callee-saved**: `rbx`, `rbp`, `rdi`, `rsi`, `r12`–`r15`. Note `rsi`/`rdi` are
+  **non-volatile** on MSx64 (unlike SysV), so a shim can stage the incoming SysV
+  path/buffer pointer in `rsi`/`rdi` and rely on it surviving every nested Win32 call.
+- **Stack alignment**: a shim is entered at `rsp ≡ 8 (mod 16)` (the `call` pushed the
+  return address). Re-align with `sub rsp, N` where `N ≡ 8 (mod 16)` — i.e. **40 or 56**,
+  not 32 — so `rsp ≡ 0 (mod 16)` at the nested `call`. The unit test
+  `test_stack_alignment_16_bytes` enforces this; the only legitimate `sub rsp, 32` is
+  the exit shim, which first forces alignment with `and rsp, -16`.
+- **Struct / out-param layout is UPWARD (C layout)**: the pointer you pass to an API is
+  the struct's **lowest** address, and a field at byte offset `F` lives at `base + F` —
+  higher offset ⇒ higher address ⇒ *less-negative* `rbp`/`rsp` offset. Never lay a struct
+  downward (`base − F`); a downward layout is invisible to the macOS/Linux tests and only
+  fails under wine. Canonical reference: the `pselect6` fd_set shim (`fd_count@base+0`,
+  `fd_array@base+8`). Zero a struct fully before filling it. This class of bug bit us on
+  the proc_open `STARTUPINFOA`/`PROCESS_INFORMATION` layout and on the `statfs`/`utsname`/
+  `FILETIME`/`BY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION` fills.
+- **Status-convention translation**: many Win32 APIs return a `BOOL` (nonzero = success).
+  A shim standing in for a POSIX C symbol whose consumer tests `== 0` for success
+  (`link`, `rename`, …) **must** translate the `BOOL` to POSIX (`0` = success,
+  `-1` = failure) inside the shim, or success and failure are reported inverted. Mirror
+  the `link`/`rename` shims: `test eax, eax; jz .Lfail; xor rax, rax` / `.Lfail: mov rax, -1`.
+- **32-bit int-status sign extension (Class-3)**: a shim returning a 32-bit C `int` status
+  that a consumer sign-tests must `cdqe` before returning, so a negative status is not read
+  as a large positive `rax`.
+- **Adding a shim**: declare the Win32 import in `WIN32_IMPORTS`, add the `emit_shim_*` and
+  its call in `emit_win32_shims`, and keep non-Windows emitters byte-identical (only the
+  Windows arm and `WIN32_IMPORTS` change). `ntdll`-only APIs (e.g. `RtlGetVersion`) are
+  **not** in the link set — do not import them; use a documented fallback instead.

Previously any `mixed` argument was rejected at compile time. Target-aware on every supported backend.
 - Int-backed enum `from()` / `tryFrom()` now accept a numeric string (issue #349): `Level::from("1")` coerces the string to the integer backing value (as a distinct EIR coercion lowered before the enum call) and returns the matching case, instead of being rejected at compile time. A numeric string with no matching case throws `ValueError`; a non-numeric string (e.g. `"x"`) throws `TypeError` with PHP's exact argument-type message — matching PHP's coercive typing on every supported target, including PHP-rejected libc `strtod` extensions such as hexadecimal `"0x1"`, `"INF"`, and `"NAN"`.
 - Fixed an enum `from()` / `tryFrom()` refcount bug (surfaced while fixing #349): the returned case singleton was under-retained, so storing the result into a reassigned variable inside a loop drove the persistent singleton's refcount to zero and freed it — producing garbage reads or a heap crash after a few iterations. `from()`/`tryFrom()` now retain the matched singleton, keeping it alive like direct case access. Affected both backed-enum backings.

+## Windows codegen parity gate
+
+`windows-x86_64` is an experimental cross-compilation target, not yet a
+first-class supported target. CI cross-compiles every codegen fixture to
+`windows-x86_64` and runs it under Wine to measure how much of the suite already
+behaves correctly on Windows. To let that parity grow without silently
+regressing, CI enforces a **curated no-regression gate**.
+
+### How the gate works
+
+Two lists live in the repository as the source of truth:
+
+- `tests/codegen/support/windows_codegen_allowlist.txt` — the codegen tests that
+  currently **pass** on `windows-x86_64` under Wine (the known-good set).
+- `tests/codegen/support/windows_codegen_known_failures.txt` — the companion list
+  of tests that currently **fail** on Windows.
+
+Together they partition the `ci`-profile *runnable* codegen tests:
+
+```
+allow_list     = (ci-profile runnable codegen tests) - known_failures
+known_failures = (ci-profile runnable codegen tests) - allow_list
+```
+
+The sharded `windows-codegen-parity` CI job runs the full suite under Wine and,
+per shard, computes `regressions = actual_failures ∩ allow_list`. The gate rule
+is exact:
+
+> **The gate fails if and only if a test in the allow-list failed on Windows.**
+
+Tests that are **not** in the allow-list — the known failures **and** any
+brand-new or native-only fixtures — never fail the gate. This protects the
+known-good set while letting Windows-incompatible tests exist freely: parity can
+only improve, never regress. The aggregating `windows-codegen-gate` job is green
+only when all 16 shards are green, and it is the single Windows-codegen
+dependency of the top-level `test` gate. Each shard also prints its
+passed / failed / parity% to the job summary, so the informational parity picture
+stays visible alongside the gate.
+
+### Refreshing the allow-list as parity grows
+
+When Windows fixes land and previously-failing tests start passing, move them
+from the known-failures list into the allow-list by regenerating both files from
+a real parity run:
+
+1. Download the 16 `windows-codegen-junit-<shard>` artifacts from a
+   `windows-codegen-parity` CI run (each is that shard's `junit.xml`).
+2. Produce the current runnable set:
+
+   ```bash
+   cargo nextest list --profile ci --test codegen_tests \
+     --message-format json > nextest_list.json
+   ```
+
+3. Regenerate both lists deterministically:
+
+   ```bash
+   python3 scripts/gen_windows_codegen_allowlist.py generate \
+     --list-json nextest_list.json \
+     --junit path/to/windows-codegen-junit-*/junit.xml
+   ```
+
+The script writes both files sorted and locale-independent, so the same inputs
+always reproduce byte-identical lists. It errors if a supplied failing test is
+not in the runnable set (a sign the inputs came from a different revision). Never
+hand-edit the lists — always regenerate. The same script's `gate` subcommand is
+what the CI job runs to perform the intersection check.

 ### Lowering notes
 
-- Lowers `sys_get_temp_dir()` as the project's hardcoded `/tmp` string.
+- Lowers `sys_get_temp_dir()`. On Windows, calls the `__rt_sys_get_temp_dir`
+- runtime helper (`GetTempPathA`-backed); on every other target, emits the
+- project's hardcoded `/tmp` string, unchanged.
 
 ## Runtime helpers
 
 The following runtime helpers are referenced:
+- `__rt_sys_get_temp_dir`
 - `__rt_tmpfile`

+### Lowering notes
+
+- Lowers `random_bytes()` into an owned CSPRNG binary string of the given length.
+- Materializes the single length operand as an integer, passes it to the
+- `__rt_random_bytes` runtime helper (length in `x0` on AArch64, `rdi` on
+- x86_64), and stores the returned owned string result (`x1`/`x2` on AArch64,
+- `rax`/`rdx` on x86_64) into the instruction's result slot. The runtime helper
+- owns allocation, the cryptographic fill, and the fatal paths for a length
+- below 1 or an unavailable entropy source.

+- descriptor_spec pointer, `rsi` = command pointer, `rdx` = command length,

+"""Manage the Windows (windows-x86_64) codegen no-regression parity gate.
+
+This single tool owns every piece of the Windows codegen parity gate that is
+expressed in data rather than YAML:
+
+  * ``generate`` — (re)builds the two in-repo source-of-truth lists from a
+    ``cargo nextest list`` JSON dump (the *runnable* set) and a set of failing
+    test names (JUnit reports and/or plain-text lists):
+
+        allow_list      = runnable_ci_tests - known_windows_failures
+        known_failures  = the failing set (sorted)
+
+  * ``gate`` — the CI post-step. Given the allow-list and the *actual* failing
+    tests of a Windows-under-wine run (per-shard JUnit reports), it computes
+    ``regressions = actual_failures ∩ allow_list`` and exits non-zero iff that
+    intersection is non-empty. Tests that are NOT in the allow-list (the known
+    failures and any brand-new / native-only tests) can never fail the gate.
+
+Both subcommands share the same JUnit / plain-text failure parsing, so the
+"what counts as a failing test name" definition lives in exactly one place.
+
+Determinism: every emitted list is sorted with Python's default (Unicode
+code-point) ordering, independent of the host locale, so regenerating from the
+same inputs always produces byte-identical files.
+
+Usage examples::
+
+    # Regenerate both lists from a fresh nextest list + the failures dump.
+    python3 scripts/gen_windows_codegen_allowlist.py generate \\

+//! Purpose:
+//! Home of the PHP `random_bytes` builtin: its declaration, compile-time
+//! length guard, and lowering.
+//!
+//! Called from:
+//! - The builtin registry (declaration), the type checker (check hook), and the
+//!   EIR backend (lower hook), all via `crate::builtins::registry`.
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - A `check` hook is required only to reject a statically-known length below 1
+//!   at compile time. PHP throws a `ValueError` for such a length; elephc has no
+//!   catchable path out of the runtime helper, so a constant literal below 1
+//!   (folded `0` or a negative) is rejected here. Runtime-unknown lengths are
+//!   guarded in the `__rt_random_bytes` runtime helper instead.
+//! - Arity (exactly 1 argument) is enforced by the registry from `params`, so the
+//!   check hook does not re-check it; the return type is always `Str`.

+//! Purpose:
+//! Transforms Linux x86_64 assembly into Windows-compatible assembly by replacing
+//! raw `syscall` sequences with calls to Win32 shim wrappers. This is the central
+//! mechanism that lets the existing x86_64 runtime code emit SysV-convention argument
+//! setup while running on Windows — the shims convert SysV registers to MSx64 ABI
+//! before calling Win32 API functions.
+//!
+//! Called from:
+//! - `crate::pipeline::compile()` on the emitted user assembly (Windows target only).
+//! - `crate::runtime_cache::prepare_runtime_object()` on the runtime assembly
+//!   before hashing/assembling (Windows target only).
+//! - `crate::codegen::platform::target::Target::transform_assembly()` (test harness).
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - Each `mov eax, <N>\n    syscall` pair is replaced by `call __rt_sys_<name>`.
+//! - The syscall number N is the Linux x86_64 syscall number.
+//! - Unsupported syscall numbers are rewritten to keep the number in `eax` and
+//!   `call __rt_unsupported_syscall`, which prints `unsupported syscall: <N>` to
+//!   stderr and exits — instead of a silent `int3` that would just crash.
+//! - Runtime-internal calls (`call __rt_*`) are left unchanged — they are not syscalls.
+
+/// Maps a Linux x86_64 syscall number to its Win32 shim function name.
+///
+/// Returns `None` for syscalls that do not yet have a Win32 equivalent.
+/// Unsupported syscalls are routed to `__rt_unsupported_syscall`, which reports
+/// the number on stderr and exits (see `transform_for_windows`).

+//! Called from:
+//! - `crate::codegen::runtime::emitters::emit_runtime()` via `crate::codegen::runtime::arrays`.
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - `random_bytes()` is a CSPRNG: this helper never falls back to a weaker source. macOS
+//!   uses libc `arc4random_buf`; Linux uses the `getrandom` syscall; the x86_64 form also
+//!   serves Windows through the syscall→shim transform (`__rt_sys_getrandom` = BCryptGenRandom).
+//! - A length below 1 or an unavailable entropy source aborts with a fatal diagnostic and

+//! Purpose:
+//! Emits elephc's own `__rt_setjmp` / `__rt_longjmp` runtime primitives for the
+//! Windows x86_64 (PE32+) target — a plain callee-saved-register save/restore with
+//! NO structured-exception-handling (SEH) involvement.
+//!
+//! Called from:
+//! - `crate::codegen_support::runtime::emitters::emit_runtime()` on Windows x86_64 only.
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - MinGW's C-library `setjmp`/`longjmp` on x86_64 Windows are SEH-based: `longjmp`
+//!   unwinds via `RtlUnwindEx` and `setjmp` walks the stack to capture the SEH
+//!   establisher frame. That walk runs off the top of elephc's small hand-rolled
+//!   Fiber stacks (write access-violation at `stack_top`), and the MinGW entry points
+//!   read their arguments in the MSx64 registers (`rcx`/`rdx`) while elephc's runtime
+//!   passes them SysV-style (`rdi`/`rsi`). Both problems break every `try`/`catch`
+//!   and every Fiber/Generator on Windows.
+//! - elephc's exception model does not need Windows SEH: `setjmp` marks a resume
+//!   point and `__rt_throw_current` `longjmp`s back to it after running its own frame
+//!   cleanup. A plain register save/restore is therefore both sufficient and correct,
+//!   and it works on any stack (main thread or Fiber) because it never walks frames or
+//!   touches the TEB. These primitives take their arguments SysV-style (`rdi` =
+//!   `jmp_buf`, `rsi` = value) exactly as elephc's `bl_c("setjmp"/"longjmp")` call
+//!   sites already stage them, so no per-site ABI shuffle is required — `bl_c` simply
+//!   routes `setjmp`/`longjmp` to these labels on the Windows x86_64 target.

+//! Purpose:
+//! Emits the `__rt_proc_close` runtime helper, the C1b pipe-only process reap
+//! path for macOS-aarch64, Linux-aarch64, and Linux-x86_64. Windows-x86_64 gets
+//! the real C1c reap (`WaitForSingleObject` + `GetExitCodeProcess`).
+//!
+//! Called from:
+//! - `crate::codegen_support::runtime::emitters::emit_runtime()` via
+//!   `crate::codegen_support::runtime::io`, and from `__rt_mixed_free_deep` as
+//!   the kind-5 resource destructor arm.
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - The helper reaps the child with `wait4(pid, &status, 0, 0)` and returns
+//!   `(status >> 8) & 0xff`, the raw exit code. On any `wait4` failure it
+//!   returns `-1`, which the lowerer boxes as PHP `false`.
+//! - The lowerer (`lower_proc_close`) stamps a `-1` sentinel into the resource
+//!   box via `apply_resource_release_sentinel` so the kind-5 destructor arm in
+//!   `__rt_mixed_free_deep` later skips reaping. `proc_close` therefore owns the
+//!   reap and the destructor never re-reaps.
+//! - Raw syscalls are emitted directly (not via `emitter.syscall()`/`map_syscall`)
+//!   so this helper stays self-contained and does not perturb the shared syscall
+//!   table. Linux `svc` does not set flags, so an explicit `cmp` precedes every
+//!   conditional branch on the AArch64 Linux path.

+//! Purpose:
+//! Emits the `__rt_proc_open` runtime helper, the C1b pipe-only `fork`/`pipe`/
+//! `execve` implementation for macOS-aarch64, Linux-aarch64, and Linux-x86_64.
+//! Windows-x86_64 gets the real C1c implementation (`CreatePipe`/`CreateProcessA`).
+//!
+//! Called from:
+//! - `crate::codegen_support::runtime::emitters::emit_runtime()` via
+//!   `crate::codegen_support::runtime::io`.
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - Pipe-only: descriptors must be `["pipe","r"|"w"]`. Any other shape makes
+//!   `proc_open` return `-1` (documented C1b limitation; `["file",...]` and
+//!   friends are a follow-up). The descriptor count is bounded at 8. The
+//!   descriptor_spec array may be either indexed (kind 2) or hash (kind 3);
+//!   `__rt_array_get_mixed_key` is representation-agnostic and handles both.
+//! - ABI (set by the EIR lowerer, never changed here): AArch64 `x0` =
+//!   descriptor_spec array ptr, `x1`/`x2` = command ptr/len, `x3` = pipes array
+//!   ptr; x86_64 `rdi`/`rsi`/`rdx`/`rcx`. Returns the raw child pid (`>= 0`) on
+//!   success or `-1` on failure; the lowerer boxes `>= 0` as `Mixed(resource,
+//!   kind=5)` and `< 0` as `Mixed(false)`.
+//! - `$pipes` is passed by value-pointer: `lower_proc_open` loads the array
+//!   pointer into `x3`/`rcx` and does NOT reload it after the call. Therefore
+//!   this helper MUST NOT reallocate the pipes array, or the caller's `$pipes`
+//!   local would orphan. The caller's `$pipes = []` is pre-sized to capacity 4
+//!   by `lower_array_new`'s `.max(4)` floor, which covers the C1b test surface
+//!   (n <= 2) and the standard 3-pipe PHP case. `__rt_array_push_refcounted`
+//!   only appends in place while capacity is available, so for n <= 4 the
+//!   caller's pointer stays valid. n in 5..8 would trigger reallocation that
+//!   the by-value pipes ABI cannot propagate back; that gap is a lowerer-side
+//!   follow-up (deferred), and the runtime avoids silent corruption by relying
+//!   on the caller's pre-sizing rather than calling `__rt_array_grow` here.
+//! - Raw syscalls are emitted directly (not via `emitter.syscall()`/`map_syscall`)
+//!   so this helper stays self-contained. Linux `svc` does not set flags, so an
+//!   explicit `cmp x0, #0` precedes every conditional branch on AArch64 Linux.
+//! - macOS fork caveat: the raw `fork` syscall (2) returns the child pid in BOTH
+//!   the parent and the child process (not 0 in the child). Parent/child are
+//!   distinguished by comparing `getpid()` before and after fork — a different
+//!   pid means the child. Linux's `clone` returns 0 in the child as expected.
+//! - macOS close caveat: `SYS_close` is syscall 6 on macOS (NOT 3, which is
+//!   `SYS_read`). Using 3 would call `read()` on the pipe fd and block forever.

+/// Only the pipe/spawn mechanism differs: `CreatePipe` replaces `pipe2`,
+/// `STARTUPINFOA.hStd*` replaces `dup2`, and `CreateProcessA` replaces
+/// `fork`/`execve`. No register is ever trusted to survive a `call` (SysV
+/// helper or Win32 API): every value is reloaded from its `rbp`-relative slot
+/// immediately afterward, since Win32 volatile registers (`rax`/`rcx`/`rdx`/
+/// `r8`-`r11`) differ from the SysV internal-helper convention.
+///
+/// Mode mapping mirrors C1b exactly: `"r"` (the child reads, e.g. stdin) puts
+/// the pipe's read end in the child and the write end in the parent; `"w"`
+/// (the child writes, e.g. stdout/stderr) is the reverse. Only descriptor
+/// indices 0/1/2 are wired into `STARTUPINFOA`; indices `>= 3` still get a
+/// real, inheritable pipe end pushed into `$pipes`, but the child has no
+/// numbered-fd convention to receive it on Windows (documented C1c
+/// limitation, consistent with C1b's own descriptor-count bound).

+//! Purpose:
+//! Emits Win32 API shim wrappers that convert SysV calling convention arguments
+//! to MSx64 ABI and call the corresponding Win32 API functions. These shims are
+//! the bridge between the existing Linux x86_64 runtime (which sets up arguments
+//! in rdi/rsi/rdx/r10/rcx/r8/r9) and Windows kernel32/msvcrt functions.
+//!
+//! Called from:
+//! - `crate::codegen::runtime::emitters::emit_runtime()` when target is Windows x86_64.
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - Each shim takes arguments in SysV registers and shuffles them to MSx64 (rcx/rdx/r8/r9).
+//! - 32-byte shadow space is allocated before each Win32 call and freed after.
+//! - Stack is aligned to 16 bytes before each call.
+//! - Win32 imports are declared via `.extern` — the MinGW linker resolves them.
+//! - For imported functions, we use `call [rip+__imp_<name>]` (IAT indirection)
+//!   to be immune to import-distance relocation issues.

+/// Emits the W3d zlib family of `__rt_sys_*` shims (compressBound, deflateEnd,
+/// inflateEnd, deflate, inflate, uncompress, inflateInit2_, compress2,
+/// deflateInit2_). Unlike the msvcrt/ws2_32/kernel32 shims above, these wrap
+/// symbols statically linked from the MinGW-sysroot `libz.a` (via
+/// `ELEPHC_MINGW_SYSROOT`, see `src/linker.rs`). That archive is built by
+/// MinGW gcc targeting Windows, so it is MSx64 ABI — NOT SysV — exactly like
+/// every other Win32-side symbol this module shims; confirmed by
+/// disassembling `compress2`/`deflateInit2_`/`deflate`/`inflate`/
+/// `deflateEnd`/`inflateEnd`/`inflateInit2_`/`uncompress` out of a locally
+/// cross-built `libzlibstatic.a` (zlib 1.3.1, the same version/build the CI
+/// sysroot step produces): every one of them spills its register arguments
+/// via `mov %rcx,0x10(%rbp)` / `mov %edx,0x18(%rbp)` / `mov %r8,0x20(%rbp)` /
+/// `mov %r9d,0x28(%rbp)` — the standard MSx64 rcx/rdx/r8/r9 prologue, not
+/// SysV rdi/rsi/rdx/rcx/r8/r9.
+///
+/// Return-value cdqe verdict (Class-3 sign-extension rule): NONE of these
+/// nine shims sign-extend `eax`→`rax` after the call. Every runtime consumer
+/// of a zlib int-status return tests for EQUALITY, not sign:
+/// `uncompress` — `strings.rs` gzuncompress: `test rax,rax; jz ok` (zero =
+/// success; a `cdqe`-less negative status zero-extends to a nonzero `rax`,
+/// which the zero-test still correctly reports as failure);
+/// `inflate` — `strings.rs` gzinflate: `cmp QWORD PTR [.], 1; jne fail`
+/// (checks for `Z_STREAM_END`==1, unaffected by upper-bit sign-extension);
+/// `deflate`/`deflateEnd`/`inflateEnd`/`inflateInit2_`/`deflateInit2_`/
+/// `compress2` — no site tests their status at all (deflate/inflate read
+/// `z_stream.total_out` instead; the Init/End calls are fire-and-forget in
+/// every current call site). `compressBound` returns a `uLong` byte count,

+/// Emits the `__rt_sys_deflateInit2_` shim — the bespoke W3d shim: 8 SysV
+/// args (rdi, rsi, edx, ecx, r8d, r9d, plus 2 CALLER-STACK args) to MSx64 (6
+/// register args + 2 stack args). This is the only Class-1 zlib shim with
+/// more than 4 arguments in ANY ABI, so both the SysV caller-stack layout
+/// AND the MSx64 callee-stack layout matter.
+///
+/// SysV caller side (every call site — `strings.rs` gzcompress/gzdeflate
+/// and `stream_filters/zlib.rs` — follows this identical pattern): the
+/// caller does `sub rsp, 16` then `mov QWORD PTR [rsp+0], version` and
+/// `mov QWORD PTR [rsp+8], stream_size` immediately before `call
+/// deflateInit2_`. Verified directly against `strings.rs:1129-1133`
+/// (`sub rsp, 16` / `[rsp+0]=zlib version address` / `[rsp+8]=Z_STREAM_SIZE`
+/// / `call deflateInit2_`) and `stream_filters/zlib.rs:356-360` (identical
+/// shape). Since `call` then pushes an 8-byte return address, at shim ENTRY
+/// (before this shim allocates its own frame) those two caller-stack args
+/// sit at `[rsp+8]` (version) and `[rsp+16]` (stream_size), relative to the
+/// shim's entry `rsp` — NOT to any later stack pointer. This is the single
+/// most failure-prone offset in the whole family, so both values are read
+/// into scratch registers (`rax`, `r10`) BEFORE `sub rsp, 72` shifts what
+/// `[rsp+N]` means.
+///
+/// MSx64 callee side wants: rcx=strm, rdx=level, r8=method, r9=windowBits,
+/// `[rsp+32]`=memLevel, `[rsp+40]`=strategy, `[rsp+48]`=version,
+/// `[rsp+56]`=stream_size (4 register args + 4 stack args, the stack args
+/// starting immediately above the 32-byte shadow space). Confirmed against a
+/// disassembly of `deflateInit2_` cross-built from zlib 1.3.1 for
+/// `x86_64-w64-mingw32`: the prologue spills `rcx`→`[rbp+0x10]`,
+/// `edx`→`[rbp+0x18]`, `r8d`→`[rbp+0x20]`, `r9d`→`[rbp+0x28]`, then reads its
+/// 7th/8th args (version/stream_size) at `[rbp+0x40]`/`[rbp+0x48]` — i.e.
+/// caller-stack slots 5–8 sit at `[rsp+32]`/`[rsp+40]`/`[rsp+48]`/`[rsp+56]`
+/// from the caller's perspective at `call` time, exactly as this shim lays
+/// them out.
+///
+/// Register-shuffle order (each SysV register is read into its MSx64 target
+/// or a scratch register BEFORE being overwritten by an earlier-numbered
+/// MSx64 argument): the two register args furthest from a collision
+/// (`r8`→memLevel, `r9`→strategy) are spilled to their stack slots first;
+/// then SysV arg4 (`rcx`/windowBits, which collides with MSx64 arg1) is
+/// saved to `r9`; SysV arg3 (`rdx`/method, which collides with MSx64 arg2)
+/// is saved to `r8`; then `rdx`←`rsi` (level) and finally `rcx`←`rdi` (strm)
+/// — `rdi`/`rsi` never collide with an earlier MSx64 write, so they move
+/// last.
+///
+/// Alignment: shim entry `rsp ≡ 8 (mod 16)` (the universal post-`call`
+/// convention every shim in this module assumes). `sub rsp, 72` — shadow
+/// (32) + 4 stack-arg slots (32) + 8 bytes of padding — is itself `≡ 8 (mod
+/// 16)`, so `rsp` lands exactly on a 16-byte boundary at `call
+/// deflateInit2_`. ✅
+///
+/// No cdqe: `deflateInit2_`'s int-status return is never sign-tested by any
+/// current call site (`gzcompress`/`gzdeflate`/the zlib stream filter all
+/// ignore its return value outright) — see [`emit_shim_zlib`] for the
+/// family-wide cdqe verdict.

+/// Emits the `__rt_sys_init_argv` shim that populates `_global_argc` and
+/// `_global_argv` from the Win32 command line on Windows x86_64.
+///
+/// On Windows the MinGW CRT `main` wrapper receives `argc` as a 32-bit `int`
+/// in `ecx`; the upper 32 bits of `rcx` are not defined by MSx64, so spilling
+/// full 64-bit `rcx`/`rdx` into the globals can leave a huge garbage count that
+/// makes `__rt_build_argv`'s `malloc((argc*16)+24)` fail and write to NULL
+/// (the observed `0x14000A831` write fault). This shim ignores the entry
+/// registers and re-derives argc/argv directly from `GetCommandLineA`
+/// (kernel32): pass 1 counts whitespace-delimited tokens (with Windows
+/// double-quote handling), `HeapAlloc(GetProcessHeap(), 0, argc*8)` allocates
+/// the pointer array, and pass 2 re-walks the command line null-terminating
+/// each token in place and storing its start pointer into `argv[i]`. It then
+/// stores the clean 64-bit argc to `_global_argc` and the array base to
+/// `_global_argv`. MSx64 ABI (rcx/rdx/r8/r9, 40-byte shadow); `rdi`/`rsi` are
+/// callee-saved across the Win32 calls and hold argc and the command-line
+/// pointer respectively. Called from `emit_store_process_args_to_globals` in
+/// place of the rdi/rsi stores on `(Platform::Windows, Arch::X86_64)` only.

+/// Emits the `__rt_sys_pselect6` shim: converts the Linux `pselect6` syscall
+/// (syscall 270) to ws2_32 `select`. elephc's `__rt_stream_select` x86_64 path
+/// builds Linux fd_set bitmaps (one qword per set, nfds=64) and emits
+/// `syscall(270)` with SysV args, which the Windows syscall transform routes
+/// here as a normal `call`.
+///
+/// SysV args received (passed in SysV registers by the transform):
+/// - `edi` = nfds (int; elephc always passes 64 — the bitmap is one qword)
+/// - `rsi` = readfds (Linux fd_set* bitmap; NULL allowed)
+/// - `rdx` = writefds (Linux fd_set* bitmap; NULL allowed)
+/// - `r10` = exceptfds (Linux fd_set* bitmap; NULL allowed)
+/// - `r8`  = timeout (struct timespec* : sec@0 i64, nsec@8 i64; NULL = block)
+/// - `r9`  = sigmask (NULL — ignored entirely)
+///
+/// Conversion:
+/// - Each non-NULL Linux fd_set bitmap (qword) is converted into a Windows
+///   `fd_set` (winsock2, 520 bytes: `u_int fd_count` @0, 4-byte pad, `SOCKET
+///   fd_array[64]` @8). For each set bit `b` (0..nfds-1), `b` is appended to
+///   `fd_array` and `fd_count` incremented. NULL sets pass NULL to `select`.
+/// - The Linux `struct timespec` (sec i64, nsec i64) is converted to the
+///   Windows `struct timeval` (tv_sec i32 @0, tv_usec i32 @4): tv_sec = sec
+///   (low 32 bits), tv_usec = nsec / 1000. A NULL timeout passes NULL (block).
+/// - After `select` returns: on SOCKET_ERROR (-1), the three Linux bitmaps are
+///   zeroed (only the non-NULL ones) and -1 is returned. On success, each
+///   non-NULL Linux bitmap is zeroed and rebuilt from the post-select Windows
+///   `fd_set` (which `select` rewrites in place to contain only ready
+///   descriptors): for each fd in `fd_array[0..fd_count)`, bit `fd` is set in
+///   the Linux bitmap qword (`or [linux_fds], 1 << fd`).
+///
+/// INVESTIGATED (sign-extension audit): `select` returns its ready count/`SOCKET_ERROR`
+/// as a 32-bit `int` in `eax`; the consumer `stream_socket_accept.rs:269` sign-tests it
+/// (`cmp rax,0; jle`). `cdqe` is inserted ONLY at the success-path final return (reloading
+/// `[rsp+72]`, after all fd_set conversion/writeback logic), not right after `call select`:
+/// the internal `cmp rax,-1; je .Lpselect6_error` branch immediately after the call still
+/// compares the un-sign-extended value and so still misses SOCKET_ERROR, but on that
+/// (pre-existing, unchanged) path Winsock leaves the fd_sets untouched, so the success-path
+/// writeback logic that runs instead is a no-op round-trip of the input bitmaps — and the
+/// final reload-and-return now correctly yields a 64-bit -1 to the caller either way. This
+/// keeps the fix confined to the return value without touching the internal fd_set-building
+/// control flow.
+///
+/// Frame: 1688 bytes (`sub rsp, 1688`; 1688 ≡ 8 mod 16, so rsp ≡ 0 at the
+/// `call select` since the shim is entered via `call` with rsp ≡ 8). Layout:
+/// - [rsp+0..32)    shadow space (MSx64)

+# Windows (windows-x86_64) codegen KNOWN-FAILURES list (companion to the
+# allow-list). One full nextest test name per line (sorted, '#' comments).
+# These codegen fixtures currently FAIL under windows-x86_64 + wine64. They
+# are the complement of the allow-list within the ci-profile runnable set:
+#
+#   known_failures = (ci-profile runnable codegen tests) - allow_list
+#
+# Kept in-repo as the source of truth for how the allow-list was derived and
+# to track Windows parity progress. As failures get fixed, refresh both files
+# together with scripts/gen_windows_codegen_allowlist.py (a fixed test moves
+# from here into the allow-list). DO NOT hand-edit; regenerate.

+//! Purpose:
+//! Integration tests verifying that the Windows x86_64 cross-compilation target
+//! produces valid, runnable PE32+ executables. Compile-only tests require the
+//! MinGW-w64 toolchain (`x86_64-w64-mingw32-as`, `x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc`) and are
+//! skipped when it is not available. Execution tests additionally require Wine
+//! (`wine64` or `wine`) to run the cross-compiled binary and are skipped when
+//! Wine is not available.
+//!
+//! Called from:
+//! - `cargo test` through Rust's test harness.
+//!
+//! Key details:
+//! - Compile-only tests assemble + link and validate PE32+ output via `file`.
+//! - Execution tests run the produced `.exe` under Wine and assert exact stdout,
+//!   which is the only signal that catches syscall/ABI regressions — compile-only
+//!   checks cannot detect those.
+//! - Uses the CLI directly with `--target windows-x86_64`.

+// `has_mingw`, `has_wine`, and `wine_binary` are shared with the parameterized
