Because all 18 sums are derived from only **7** batch-invariant base registers `(d6, w0..w5)` loaded in `$L__BB0_2`, keeping the 18 sums live across the loop expands live virtual registers from `7` to `18` ($+11$ registers). Whenever preheader live-register pressure crosses NVVM 7.0.1's LICM/sinking threshold — either at $K=4$ (`16` live state registers across 4 interleaved candidates) or at $K=2$ when removing the `fast_mask` select diamond merges `$L__BB0_2` directly into the loop preheader — NVVM sinks those exact 18 `base_reg + imm` additions into the `j_lo` loop header.\n   - **Discovery 2 — Restoration of the Unbroken Linear PTX Law $I_{\\text{hot}}(K) = 359K + 6$ Across $K \\in \\{1, 2, 3, 4\\}$ vs `ptxas` Physical SASS Register Occupancy (`-cl-nv-verbose`)**: Pre-folding `C8, C9, wk16..wk62` on the host in `__global const Prm* p` (`_prewk`) makes each `wk` an independent `ld.global.nc.u32` load with no shared `w_m` base register, completely eliminating the `+18` `add.s32` PTX sinking anomaly (`sunk18 = 0`) without any `fast_mask` diamond and restoring the exact linear law across **all four** interleaving factors $K \\in \\{1, 2, 3, 4\\}$:\n     $$I_{\\text{hot}}^{\\text{eq8,prewk}}(K) = 359K + 6 = \\{365,\\; 724,\\; 1083,\\; 1442\\}, \\qquad I_{\\text{add.s32}}^{\\text{eq8,prewk}}(K) = 161K + 1 = \\{162,\\; 323,\\; 484,\\; 645\\}.$$\n     Extracting physical SASS register counts from `ptxas` via `-cl-nv-verbose` (`CUDA_CACHE_DISABLE=1`) reveals a critical **second-stage compiler trade-off** on Ada `sm_89` (`65,536` 32-bit VGPRs/SM, max `6` blocks $\\times 256$ threads = `1,536` threads/SM, where `100%` occupancy requires $\\le 40$ allocated registers/thread at 8-register allocation granularity):\n     - When `w0..w5` are passed as 6 scalars (`lut256_esfex_k2_lo_w7add_eq8`, `lut256_esfex_k3_lo_eq8`, `lut256_esfex_k4_lo`), `ptxas` rematerializes `w_m + KK[step]` into SASS `IADD3` immediate additions so physical register allocation stays at **`38–40` SASS registers (`100.0%` occupancy, 6 active blocks/SM)**!\n     - When `_prewk` loads 20 distinct global words (`__global`), `ptxas` cannot rematerialize global loads as immediates and holds all `wk` values in physical VGPRs, increasing SASS registers to **`48` at $K=1,2$ (`83.33%` occupancy, 5 blocks/SM)** and **`56` at $K=3,4$ (`66.67%` occupancy, 4 blocks/SM)**.\n     - Passing `Prm` in OpenCL `__constant` memory (`lut256_esfex_k2_lo_eq8_constp`) causes NVVM to emit `20` `ld.const.u32` instructions in the hot loop (`PTX_hot = 744`), which `ptxas` folds into SASS constant-cache operands `c[bank][offset]`, slashing physical SASS registers to **`28` (`100.0%` occupancy, 6 blocks/SM)** and beating `eq8_prewk` (`50.6237` vs `50.2444 GH/s`), while **`lut256_esfex_k2_lo_w7add_eq8`** (`730` hot PTX insts, `38` SASS regs, `100.0%` occupancy, with unused `dT` removed to save 2 `add.s32`) achieves the highest GPU throughput on this workstation: **`52.3237 GH/s` median / `52.5159 GH/s` peak** (`52.3455 ± 0.1606 GH/s` mean±SD, **`1.0517x` vs `lut256_esfex`**, winning `5/5` rounds).\n\n2. **H2 — AVX-512 `{1to16}` Embedded Broadcast (`vadd16_bcast`) Cure of Clang 21.1's $K=7$ 46-ZMM Spill Anomaly & New Zen 4 `1T` (`502.41 MH/s`) and `12T` (`3,971.34 MH/s`) Records**:\n   - **Exact Cause & Cure of Clang's $K=7$ Spill Cliff (`#4196`)**: In Return `#4196` (`Job #8582`), `gcc:simd112_nvtd_padtl_kf_rld_eq8` ($K=7$, `112` lanes) achieved `0` dynamic ZMM spills (`495.66 MH/s` 1T), whereas `clang:simd112_nvtd_padtl_kf_rld_eq8` suffered **`46` dynamic ZMM spill stores + `64` reloads** (`2,017` hot insts, `462.66 MH/s` 1T). Inspecting the generated assembly (`job8615-asm_gcc_avx512.s.txt`, `job8615-asm_clang_avx512.s.txt`) proves why: when `mk[i]` is added as a C vector `(D_s) + SPLAT16(mk[i])`, both compilers spill ~50 64-byte broadcasted vectors to a **`4,096–4,864` byte stack frame (`%rsp`)**.

Independently, in Return `#4185` (`Job #8561`), removing the `fast_mask` select diamond in `lut256_esfex_k2_lo_eq8_nodiam` ($K=2$) caused hot-loop PTX instructions to jump by the exact same `+18` `add.s32` above the `_eq8` linear law ($359(2)+6 = 724 \\to 742$).\n\nBy parsing the top of the `j_lo` inner-loop header in all 13 arms (`job8615-gpu_bench.py`, verified by `job8615-verify.py`) and mapping every `add.s32 %rX, %rY, imm` instruction appearing *before* the shared-memory lookup `ld.shared.u32 %rZ, [%rdW]` back to its MD5 step via the signed 32-bit sinusoidal table `KK[0..63]`, we discovered that both anomalies emit **the exact same 18 `add.s32` instructions in the exact same reverse step order**:\n\n| Sunk Order | PTX Instruction in `$L__BB0_7` (`k4_lo`) / `$L__BB0_5` (`k2_lo_eq8_nodiam`) | Signed 32-Bit Immediate | Unsigned Hex `KK[step]` | MD5 Step & Message Word (`w_m + KK[step]`) |\n| :---: | :--- | :---: | :---: | :--- |\n| 1 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w4), -145523070;` | `-145523070` | `0xf7537e82` | **Step 60** (`w4 + KK[60]`, Round 4) |\n| 2 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w1), -2054922799;` | `-2054922799` | `0x85845dd1` | **Step 55** (`w1 + KK[55]`, Round 4) |\n| 3 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w3), -1894986606;` | `-1894986606` | `0x8f0ccc92` | **Step 53** (`w3 + KK[53]`, Round 4) |\n| 4 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w5), -358537222;` | `-358537222` | `0xfe2ce6e0` | **Step 51** (`w5 + KK[51]`, Round 4) |\n| 5 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w0), -198630844;` | `-198630844` | `0xf4292244` | **Step 48** (`w0 + KK[48]`, Round 4) |\n| 6 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w2), -995338651;` | `-995338651` | `0xc4ac5665` | **Step 47** (`w2 + KK[47]`, Round 3) |\n| 7 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w3), -722521979;` | `-722521979` | `0xd4ef3085` | **Step 42** (`w3 + KK[42]`, Round 3) |\n| 8 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w0), -35309556;` | `-35309556` | `0xfde5380c` | **Step 41** (`w0 + KK[41]`, Round 3) |\n| 9 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w4), 1272893353;` | `1272893353` | `0x4be449e9` | **Step 37** (`w4 + KK[37]`, Round 3) |\n| 10 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w1), -1530992060;` | `-1530992060` | `0xa4beea44` | **Step 36** (`w1 + KK[36]`, Round 3) |\n| 11 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w5), -378558;` | `-378558` | `0xffffa394` | **Step 32** (`w5 + KK[32]`, Round 3) |\n| 12 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w2), -51403784;` | `-51403784` | `0xfcefa3f8` | **Step 29** (`w2 + KK[29]`, Round 2) |\n| 13 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w3), -187363961;` | `-187363961` | `0xf4d50d87` | **Step 26** (`w3 + KK[26]`, Round 2) |\n| 14 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w4), -405537848;` | `-405537848` | `0xe7d3fbc8` | **Step 23** (`w4 + KK[23]`, Round 2) |\n| 15 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w5), -701558691;` | `-701558691` | `0xd62f105d` | **Step 20** (`w5 + KK[20]`, Round 2) |\n| 16 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w0), -373897302;` | `-373897302` | `0xe9b6c7aa` | **Step 19** (`w0 + KK[19]`, Round 2) |\n| 17 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(w1), -165796510;` | `-165796510` | `0xf61e2562` | **Step 16** (`w1 + KK[16]`, Round 2) |\n| 18 | `add.s32 %r*, %r(d6), -1958414417;` | `-1958414417` | `0x8b44f7af` | **Step 9** (`C9 = d6 + KK[9]`, Round 1) |\n\nNotice the structural mechanism:\n- In Rounds 2, 3, and 4 (Steps 16..63), the 6 prefix words `w0..w5` are used $3 \\times 6 = 18$ times: 17 times in the hot loop (Steps 16..60) plus once in the cold epilogue (Step 62, `w2 + KK[62]`). Together with `C9 = d6 + KK[9]` (where `d6` is also live inside the loop for Step 8's `(d6 ^ (b & cd6))`), these **18** loop-invariant sums are functions of just **7** base registers `(d6, w0, w1, w2, w3, w4, w5)`.\n- Hoisting all 18 additions out of `j_lo` requires holding 18 live virtual registers across the loop instead of 7 ($+11$ live registers). When NVVM's loop-sink pass sees that preheader register pressure exceeds its target — either because $K=4$ interleaves 4 candidates (`16` state registers) or because removing the `fast_mask` diamond in `k2_lo_eq8_nodiam` merges the entry block `$L__BB0_2` directly into the `j_hi` preheader — it sinks those exact 18 `reg + imm` additions into the `j_lo` header!\n\n### 2.2 Complete 13-Arm PTX CFG, `ptxas` SASS Register Occupancy (`-cl-nv-verbose`), and 5-Round GPU Benchmark (`job8615-gpu_results.json`)\n\nAll 13 OpenCL arms passed Gate G1 (fixture `54db1011d76dc70a0a9df3ff3e0b390f`) and Gate G2 (**100% set-equality of all `18` `score >= 8` hits across `16` full $2^{32}$-candidate batches $= 6.872 \\times 10^{10}$ candidates per arm**).

At $K=3$, avoiding `ptxas` rematerialization inside the 3-stream loop outweighs the occupancy drop (`50.58 -> 51.65 GH/s`), whereas at $K=2$ (`w7add_eq8`) and $K=4$, keeping `100.0%` occupancy (`38–40` regs) with hardware `IADD3` wins (`52.3237 GH/s` median, **`52.5159 GH/s` peak**).\n\n---\n\n## 3.
