The runtime is JSPI-only; this removes everything that still pretended
otherwise. Three exhaustive sweeps (C++/JS+build+CI/tests+docs) drove
the inventory; every deletion verified by grep closure + full gates.
Broken-right-now fixes:
- deploy-staging.yml passed the retired opt_level input — the workflow
could not even start. Removed.
- env.sh carried dead exports with a live -sASYNCIFY=1 inside
(WASM_LDFLAGS/PTHREAD_LDFLAGS, zero consumers). Removed; the
WASM_LEGACY_EXCEPTIONS rationale rewritten to the real reason.
- docker/build.sh exported PCBJAM_ASYNC_BACKEND (read nowhere). Gone.
Dead weight removed:
- binaryen submodule (nothing builds or invokes it), wasm-opt-bench
workflow + scripts/bench/, get-wasm-opt.sh, diagnostics.js (242 lines
of Asyncify-API-only code), the KICAD_PIPELINE background-postprocess
scaffolding (existed to parallelize the deleted wasm-opt phase; the
postprocess is a seconds-long node script and now runs inline),
build-monitor's dead asyncify rows, sched-context orphan build
output, dead .gitignore entries, the .jspi-assets spike dir (the two
wf-result research JSONs moved to docs/features/async/migration-evidence/).
- bindings: fiber_park.h + its 12 embind registrations (broken-if-
called under JSPI), the kicadOpenFileStart/OPEN_JOB starter route,
main_stack_runner.h + 5 includes, the always-null context-sleep weak
hook in nanosleep_yield.c.
- shim: the backend field (installed-flag idempotency instead),
noteContextWait (dead both sides), the __wxAsyncifyDump alias (+ the
WasmTool fallback and string-dump normalize branch).
- web: the emscripten-6-ignored mainScriptUrlOrBlob option in boot.ts
(gerber-demo keeps it: it loads the deployed CDN release, which
predates emscripten 6 — noted inline).
Conditionals: all 'backend === jspi' checks reduced to scheduler-
presence checks; races_quiescent re-keyed from Asyncify.state (vacuous)
to real backlog quiescence (resumeReady/mutatorQueue — NOT _windowLive,
which is the probing activation's own window by definition).
Renames (identifiers only, no file renames): ASYNC_LINK_FLAGS→
JSPI_LINK_FLAGS and Makefile ASYNC_LDFLAGS→JSPI_LDFLAGS,
kicadCollabFiberBusy→kicadCollabBusy (embind + web + tests),
collab_common.h fiber*→apply*/coroutine naming, asyncifySignatures→
wasmTrapSignatures (lists byte-identical).
Tests: the two remaining vacuous [wx-asyncify]/fiber-resume-refused
asserts re-keyed to live JSPI beacons; eeschema-load's failure message
no longer sends the developer to a deleted script; wait-beacons' dead
families/parser deleted; lane-0 legacy-glue guards removed (lane 0 is
unconstructible); the embind test.fail re-gated with the JSPI reason
(plain embind invokers cannot suspend — verified still failing);
lint-determinism now scans tests/jspi (166 files clean);
eeschema-collab local-move gated to chromium (~50% flaky on FF even
solo; pcbnew twin covers both engines).
Docs: DEBUG.md rewritten as the JSPI debugging guide; build.md
describes the single-phase build; docs/features/async/README.md
banner-marked historical and repointed at the NEW
23-jspi-runtime.md (current architecture: export census, turnstile,
libcontext ownership + refusal contract, embind call shapes, the
em-pthread service-wrapper trick, exception policy, known gaps).
Gates on the cleaned tree: test:e2e 725 passed / 0 failed (after the
quiescence-probe fix; the 3 other reds were verified contention flakes
solo-green or the documented FF gate), web 76/0, jspi 18/18 both
engines, vitest 295/295 + 17/17, all lints green, live-app census
clean.

Live-app fix (Place Footprints / routing dead in Chrome): submodule
bumps carry the coroutine ownership fix (kicad 012d95ecb4) and the
handler-exception survival fix (wxwidgets 1b5f0e31f4).
Emscripten-6 fallout:
- occ/ngspice worker wrappers: mainScriptUrlOrBlob was removed
upstream; pthread children re-run the wrapper blob, so an em-pthread
realm now importScripts the glue and gets out of the way (before:
recursive service boots, pool never fills, silent 180s boot hangs —
every occ spec and ngspice bg_run).
- Makefile.wasm: -sASYNCIFY frankenlinks on the no-wx coroutine repro
targets ported to -sJSPI (the JSPI-only libcontext crashed at first
yield under them); mainloop/gl repro pages drive their tick through a
promising export (emscripten_set_main_loop callbacks cannot suspend);
retired inject-dyncall-shims lines removed (targets were unbuildable
since Phase 8); $stringToNewUTF8 force-included (the EM_ASM value
bridge aborted the runtime on the first decoded exception).
- fiber-park levers: neither embind shape can drive suspending levers
(plain throws on strict-JSPI Firefox; emscripten::async() re-executes
its invoker on settle) — kept sync for manual Chromium probing, spec
coverage moved to the jspi-coroutine harness (18 cases).
Suite work:
- Playwright 1.61.1 -> 1.62.1 (Firefox 153: JSPI on by default).
- fiber-resume-park.spec retired -> coroutine-lifecycle.spec: census
gate over boot / board load / chooser open / cancel (deterministically
red on the pre-fix build).
- Blind asyncify-era pins re-keyed: quasimodal-strand + wait-beacons
beacon regexes, footprint-chooser-close liveness -> wx parking-timer
heartbeat (scheduler counters idle flat on Firefox).
- occ/ngspice test providers: 60s boot timeout + worker error
surfacing (a worker death used to be a silent 180s timeout).
- Harness pages: stale 9.99 config dir -> 10.0 (library_manager wxCHECK
noise, chooser had no libraries).
- gal-webgl harness: missing artifacts rebuilt (boost/glm extracted to
the host sysroot), PgmOrNull stub added for the rebased GAL.
- jspi-scheduler: clean-shutdown console line restored (app-quit
contract), quarantine never yanks SP from a live window.
Gates: test:e2e 699 passed / 0 failed (wx-chromium, kicad-firefox,
kicad-chromium, jspi-firefox, coroutine-firefox); web ff/cr/mobile 71
passed; lint:ci-coverage 166, lint:determinism 163, screenshots
manifest 492 current, corpus 7/7, tools:contract green. Offline
screenshot baselines show expected mass drift from the engine bump —
re-baseline (screenshots:noise -> promote) is a follow-up.
