+# DSLLVM - DSMIL-Optimized LLVM Toolchain
+
+**Version**: 1.0
+**Status**: Initial Development
+**Owner**: SWORDIntel / DSMIL Kernel Team
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+DSLLVM is a hardened LLVM/Clang toolchain specialized for the DSMIL kernel and userland stack on Intel Meteor Lake hardware (CPU + NPU + Arc GPU). It extends LLVM with:
+
+- **DSMIL-aware hardware targeting** optimized for Meteor Lake
+- **Semantic metadata** for 9-layer/104-device architecture
+- **Bandwidth & memory-aware optimization**
+- **MLOps stage-awareness** for AI/LLM workloads
+- **CNSA 2.0 provenance** (SHA-384, ML-DSA-87, ML-KEM-1024)
+- **Quantum optimization hooks** (Device 46)
+- **Complete tooling** and pass pipelines
+
+---
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Building DSLLVM
+
+```bash
+# Configure with CMake
+cmake -G Ninja -S llvm -B build \
+ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
+ -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;lld" \
+ -DLLVM_ENABLE_DSMIL=ON \
+ -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="X86"
+
+# Build
+ninja -C build
+
+# Install
+ninja -C build install
+```
+
+### Using DSLLVM
+
+```bash
+# Compile with DSMIL default pipeline
+dsmil-clang -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default -o output input.c
+
+# Use DSMIL attributes in source
+cat > example.c << 'EOF'
+#include <dsmil_attributes.h>
+
+DSMIL_LLM_WORKER_MAIN
+int main(int argc, char **argv) {
+ return llm_worker_loop();
+}
+EOF
+
+dsmil-clang -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default -o llm_worker example.c
+```
+
+### Verifying Provenance
+
+```bash
+# Verify binary provenance
+dsmil-verify /usr/bin/llm_worker
+
+# Get detailed report
+dsmil-verify --verbose --json /usr/bin/llm_worker > report.json
+```

+
+## Key Features
+
+### 1. DSMIL Target Integration
+
+Custom target triple `x86_64-dsmil-meteorlake-elf` with Meteor Lake optimizations:
+
+```bash
+# AVX2, AVX-VNNI, AES, VAES, SHA, GFNI, BMI1/2, POPCNT, FMA, etc.
+dsmil-clang -target x86_64-dsmil-meteorlake-elf ...
+```
+
+### 2. Source-Level Attributes
+
+Annotate code with DSMIL metadata:
+
+```c
+#include <dsmil_attributes.h>
+
+DSMIL_LAYER(7)
+DSMIL_DEVICE(47)
+DSMIL_STAGE("serve")
+void llm_inference(void) {
+ // Layer 7 (AI/ML) on Device 47 (NPU)
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Compile-Time Verification
+
+Layer boundary and policy enforcement:
+
+```c
+// ERROR: Upward layer transition without gateway
+DSMIL_LAYER(7)
+void user_function(void) {
+ kernel_operation(); // Layer 1 function
+}
+
+// OK: With gateway
+DSMIL_GATEWAY
+DSMIL_LAYER(5)
+int validated_entry(void *data) {
+ return kernel_operation(data);
+}
+```
+
+### 4. CNSA 2.0 Provenance
+
+Every binary includes cryptographically-signed provenance:
+
+```bash
+$ dsmil-verify /usr/bin/llm_worker
+✓ Provenance present
+✓ Signature valid (PSK-2025-SWORDIntel-DSMIL)
+✓ Certificate chain valid
+✓ Binary hash matches
+✓ DSMIL metadata:
+ Layer: 7
+ Device: 47
+ Sandbox: l7_llm_worker
+ Stage: serve
+```
+
+### 5. Automatic Sandboxing
+
+Zero-code sandboxing via attributes:
+
+```c
+DSMIL_SANDBOX("l7_llm_worker")
+int main(int argc, char **argv) {
+ // Automatically sandboxed with:
+ // - Minimal capabilities (libcap-ng)
+ // - Seccomp filter
+ // - Resource limits
+ return run_inference_loop();
+}
+```
+
+### 6. Bandwidth-Aware Optimization
+
+Automatic memory tier recommendations:
+
+```c
+DSMIL_KV_CACHE
+struct kv_cache_pool global_kv_cache;
+// Recommended: ramdisk/tmpfs for high bandwidth
+
+DSMIL_HOT_MODEL
+const float weights[4096][4096];
+// Recommended: large pages, NUMA pinning
+```
+
+---
+
+## Pass Pipelines
+

+# DSMIL Attributes Reference
+**Comprehensive Guide to DSMIL Source-Level Annotations**
+
+Version: v1.0
+Last Updated: 2025-11-24
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+DSLLVM extends Clang with a set of custom attributes that encode DSMIL-specific semantics directly in C/C++ source code. These attributes are lowered to LLVM IR metadata and consumed by DSMIL-specific optimization and verification passes.
+
+All DSMIL attributes use the `dsmil_` prefix and are available via `__attribute__((...))` syntax.
+
+---
+
+## Layer & Device Attributes
+
+### `dsmil_layer(int layer_id)`
+
+**Purpose**: Assign a function or global to a specific DSMIL architectural layer.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `layer_id` (int): Layer index, typically 0-8 or 1-9 depending on naming convention.
+
+**Applies to**: Functions, global variables
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_layer(7)))
+void llm_inference_worker(void) {
+ // Layer 7 (AI/ML) operations
+}
+```
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.layer = !{i32 7}
+```
+
+**Backend Effects**:
+- Function placed in `.text.dsmil.layer7` section
+- Entry added to `*.dsmilmap` sidecar file
+- Used by `dsmil-layer-check` pass for boundary validation
+
+**Notes**:
+- Invalid layer transitions are caught at compile-time by `dsmil-layer-check`
+- Functions without this attribute default to layer 0 (kernel/hardware)
+
+---
+
+### `dsmil_device(int device_id)`
+
+**Purpose**: Assign a function or global to a specific DSMIL device.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `device_id` (int): Device index, 0-103 per DSMIL architecture.
+
+**Applies to**: Functions, global variables
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_device(47)))
+void npu_workload(void) {
+ // Runs on Device 47 (NPU/AI accelerator)
+}
+```
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.device_id = !{i32 47}
+```
+
+**Backend Effects**:
+- Function placed in `.text.dsmil.dev47` section
+- Metadata used by `dsmil-device-placement` for optimization hints
+
+**Device Categories** (partial list):
+- 0-9: Core kernel devices
+- 10-19: Storage subsystem
+- 20-29: Network subsystem
+- 30-39: Security/crypto devices
+- 40-49: AI/ML devices (46 = quantum integration, 47 = NPU primary)
+- 50-59: Telemetry/observability
+- 60-69: Power management
+- 70-103: Application/user-defined
+
+---
+
+## Security & Policy Attributes
+
+### `dsmil_clearance(uint32_t clearance_mask)`
+
+**Purpose**: Specify security clearance level and compartments for a function.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `clearance_mask` (uint32): 32-bit bitmask encoding clearance level and compartments.
+
+**Applies to**: Functions
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_clearance(0x07070707)))
+void sensitive_operation(void) {
+ // Requires specific clearance
+}
+```
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.clearance = !{i32 0x07070707}
+```
+
+**Clearance Format** (proposed):
+- Bits 0-7: Base clearance level (0-255)
+- Bits 8-15: Compartment A
+- Bits 16-23: Compartment B
+- Bits 24-31: Compartment C
+
+**Verification**:
+- `dsmil-layer-check` ensures lower-clearance code cannot call higher-clearance code without gateway
+
+---
+
+### `dsmil_roe(const char *rules)`
+
+**Purpose**: Specify Rules of Engagement for a function (authorization to perform specific actions).
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `rules` (string): ROE policy identifier
+
+**Applies to**: Functions
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_roe("ANALYSIS_ONLY")))
+void analyze_data(const void *data) {
+ // Read-only analysis operations
+}
+
+__attribute__((dsmil_roe("LIVE_CONTROL")))
+void actuate_hardware(int device_id, int value) {
+ // Can control physical hardware
+}
+```
+
+**Common ROE Values**:
+- `"ANALYSIS_ONLY"`: Read-only, no side effects
+- `"LIVE_CONTROL"`: Can modify hardware/system state
+- `"NETWORK_EGRESS"`: Can send data externally
+- `"CRYPTO_SIGN"`: Can sign data with system keys
+- `"ADMIN_OVERRIDE"`: Emergency administrative access
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.roe = !{!"ANALYSIS_ONLY"}
+```
+
+**Verification**:
+- Enforced by `dsmil-layer-check` and runtime policy engine
+- Transitions from weaker to stronger ROE require explicit gateway
+
+---
+
+### `dsmil_gateway`
+
+**Purpose**: Mark a function as an authorized boundary crossing point.
+
+**Parameters**: None
+
+**Applies to**: Functions
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_gateway))
+__attribute__((dsmil_layer(5)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_clearance(0x05050505)))
+int validated_syscall_handler(int syscall_num, void *args) {
+ // Can safely transition from layer 7 userspace to layer 5 kernel
+ return do_syscall(syscall_num, args);
+}
+```
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.gateway = !{i1 true}
+```
+
+**Semantics**:
+- Without this attribute, `dsmil-layer-check` rejects cross-layer or cross-clearance calls
+- Gateway functions must implement proper validation and sanitization
+- Audit events generated at runtime for all gateway transitions
+
+---
+
+### `dsmil_sandbox(const char *profile_name)`
+
+**Purpose**: Specify sandbox profile for program entry point.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `profile_name` (string): Name of predefined sandbox profile
+
+**Applies to**: `main` function
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_sandbox("l7_llm_worker")))
+int main(int argc, char **argv) {
+ // Runs with l7_llm_worker sandbox restrictions
+ return run_inference_loop();
+}
+```
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.sandbox = !{!"l7_llm_worker"}
+```
+
+**Link-Time Transformation**:
+- `dsmil-sandbox-wrap` pass renames `main` → `main_real`
+- Injects wrapper `main` that:
+ - Sets up libcap-ng capability restrictions
+ - Installs seccomp-bpf filter
+ - Configures resource limits
+ - Calls `main_real()`
+
+**Predefined Profiles**:
+- `"l7_llm_worker"`: AI inference sandbox
+- `"l5_network_daemon"`: Network service restrictions
+- `"l3_crypto_worker"`: Cryptographic operations
+- `"l1_device_driver"`: Kernel driver restrictions
+
+---
+
+## MLOps Stage Attributes
+
+### `dsmil_stage(const char *stage_name)`
+
+**Purpose**: Encode MLOps lifecycle stage for functions and binaries.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `stage_name` (string): MLOps stage identifier
+
+**Applies to**: Functions, binaries (via main)
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_stage("quantized")))
+void model_inference_int8(const int8_t *input, int8_t *output) {
+ // Quantized inference path
+}
+
+__attribute__((dsmil_stage("debug")))
+void verbose_diagnostics(void) {
+ // Debug-only code
+}
+```
+
+**Common Stage Values**:
+- `"pretrain"`: Pre-training phase
+- `"finetune"`: Fine-tuning operations
+- `"quantized"`: Quantized models (INT8/INT4)
+- `"distilled"`: Distilled/compressed models
+- `"serve"`: Production serving/inference
+- `"debug"`: Debug/diagnostic code
+- `"experimental"`: Research/non-production
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.stage = !{!"quantized"}
+```
+
+**Policy Enforcement**:
+- `dsmil-stage-policy` pass validates stage usage per deployment target
+- Production binaries (layer ≥3) may prohibit `debug` and `experimental` stages
+- Automated MLOps pipelines use stage metadata to route workloads
+
+---
+
+## Memory & Performance Attributes
+
+### `dsmil_kv_cache`
+
+**Purpose**: Mark storage for key-value cache in LLM inference.
+
+**Parameters**: None
+
+**Applies to**: Functions, global variables
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_kv_cache))
+struct kv_cache_pool {
+ float *keys;
+ float *values;
+ size_t capacity;
+} global_kv_cache;
+
+__attribute__((dsmil_kv_cache))
+void allocate_kv_cache(size_t tokens) {
+ // KV cache allocation routine
+}
+```
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.memory_class = !{!"kv_cache"}
+```
+
+**Optimization Effects**:
+- `dsmil-bandwidth-estimate` prioritizes KV cache bandwidth
+- `dsmil-device-placement` suggests high-bandwidth memory tier (ramdisk/tmpfs)
+- Backend may use specific cache line prefetch strategies
+
+---
+
+### `dsmil_hot_model`
+
+**Purpose**: Mark frequently accessed model weights.
+
+**Parameters**: None
+
+**Applies to**: Global variables, functions that access hot paths
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_hot_model))
+const float attention_weights[4096][4096] = { /* ... */ };
+
+__attribute__((dsmil_hot_model))
+void attention_forward(const float *query, const float *key, float *output) {
+ // Hot path in transformer model
+}
+```
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.memory_class = !{!"hot_model"}
+!dsmil.sensitivity = !{!"MODEL_WEIGHTS"}
+```
+
+**Optimization Effects**:
+- May be placed in large pages (2MB/1GB)
+- Prefetch optimizations
+- Pinned in high-speed memory tier
+
+---
+

+
+### `dsmil_quantum_candidate(const char *problem_type)`
+
+**Purpose**: Mark a function as candidate for quantum-assisted optimization.
+
+**Parameters**:
+- `problem_type` (string): Type of optimization problem
+
+**Applies to**: Functions
+
+**Example**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_quantum_candidate("placement")))
+int optimize_model_placement(struct model *m, struct device *devices, int n) {
+ // Classical placement solver
+ // Will be analyzed for quantum offload potential
+ return classical_solver(m, devices, n);
+}
+
+__attribute__((dsmil_quantum_candidate("schedule")))
+void job_scheduler(struct job *jobs, int count) {
+ // Scheduling problem suitable for quantum annealing
+}
+```
+
+**Problem Types**:
+- `"placement"`: Device/model placement optimization
+- `"routing"`: Network path selection
+- `"schedule"`: Job/task scheduling
+- `"hyperparam_search"`: Hyperparameter tuning
+
+**IR Lowering**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.quantum_candidate = !{!"placement"}
+```
+
+**Processing**:
+- `dsmil-quantum-export` pass analyzes function
+- Attempts to extract QUBO/Ising formulation
+- Emits `*.quantum.json` sidecar for Device 46 quantum orchestrator

+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Always Specify Layer & Device for Critical Code
+
+```c
+// Good
+__attribute__((dsmil_layer(7)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_device(47)))
+void inference_critical(void) { /* ... */ }
+
+// Bad - implicit layer 0
+void inference_critical(void) { /* ... */ }
+```
+
+### 2. Use Gateway Functions for Boundary Crossings
+
+```c
+// Good
+__attribute__((dsmil_gateway))
+__attribute__((dsmil_layer(5)))
+int validated_entry(void *user_data) {
+ if (!validate(user_data)) return -EINVAL;
+ return kernel_operation(user_data);
+}
+
+// Bad - implicit boundary crossing will fail verification
+__attribute__((dsmil_layer(7)))
+void user_function(void) {
+ kernel_operation(data); // ERROR: layer 7 → layer 5 without gateway
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Tag Debug Code Appropriately
+
+```c
+// Good - won't be included in production
+__attribute__((dsmil_stage("debug")))
+void verbose_trace(void) { /* ... */ }
+
+// Good - production path
+__attribute__((dsmil_stage("serve")))
+void fast_inference(void) { /* ... */ }
+```
+
+### 4. Combine Attributes for Full Context
+
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_layer(7)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_device(47)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_stage("quantized")))
+__attribute__((dsmil_sandbox("l7_llm_worker")))
+__attribute__((dsmil_clearance(0x07000000)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_roe("ANALYSIS_ONLY")))
+int main(int argc, char **argv) {
+ // Fully annotated entry point
+ return llm_worker_loop();
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Error: "Layer boundary violation"
+
+```
+error: function 'foo' (layer 7) calls 'bar' (layer 3) without dsmil_gateway
+```
+
+**Solution**: Add `dsmil_gateway` to the callee or refactor to avoid cross-layer call.
+
+### Error: "Stage policy violation"
+
+```
+error: production binary cannot link dsmil_stage("debug") code
+```
+
+**Solution**: Remove debug code from production build or use conditional compilation.
+
+### Warning: "Missing layer attribute"
+
+```
+warning: function 'baz' has no dsmil_layer attribute, defaulting to layer 0
+```
+
+**Solution**: Add explicit `__attribute__((dsmil_layer(N)))` to function.
+
+---
+
+## Header File Reference
+
+Include `<dsmil_attributes.h>` for convenient macro definitions:
+
+```c
+#include <dsmil_attributes.h>
+
+DSMIL_LAYER(7)
+DSMIL_DEVICE(47)
+DSMIL_STAGE("serve")
+void my_function(void) {
+ // Equivalent to __attribute__((dsmil_layer(7))) etc.
+}
+```

+# DSLLVM Design Specification
+**DSMIL-Optimized LLVM Toolchain for Intel Meteor Lake**
+
+Version: v1.0
+Status: Draft
+Owner: SWORDIntel / DSMIL Kernel Team
+
+---
+
+## 0. Scope & Intent
+
+DSLLVM is a hardened LLVM/Clang toolchain specialized for the **DSMIL kernel + userland stack** on Intel Meteor Lake (CPU + NPU + Arc GPU), with:
+
+1. **DSMIL-aware hardware target & optimal flags** tuned for Meteor Lake.
+2. **DSMIL semantic metadata** baked into LLVM IR (layers, devices, ROE, clearance).
+3. **Bandwidth & memory-aware optimization** tailored to realistic hardware limits.
+4. **MLOps stage-awareness** for AI/LLM workloads (pretrain/finetune/serve, quantized/distilled, etc.).
+5. **CNSA 2.0–compatible provenance & sandbox integration**
+ - **SHA-384** (hash), **ML-DSA-87** (signature), **ML-KEM-1024** (KEM).
+6. **Quantum-assisted optimization hooks** (Device 46, Qiskit-compatible side outputs).
+7. **Complete packaging & tooling**: wrappers, pass pipelines, repo layout, and CI integration.
+
+DSLLVM does *not* invent a new language. It extends LLVM/Clang with attributes, metadata, passes, and ELF/sidecar outputs that align with the DSMIL 9-layer / 104-device architecture and its MLOps pipeline.
+
+---
+
+## 1. DSMIL Hardware Target Integration
+
+### 1.1 Target Triple & Subtarget
+
+Introduce a dedicated target triple:
+
+- `x86_64-dsmil-meteorlake-elf`
+
+Characteristics:
+
+- Base ABI: x86-64 SysV (compatible with mainstream Linux).
+- Default CPU: `meteorlake`.
+- Default features (`+dsmil-optimal`):
+
+ - AVX2, AVX-VNNI
+ - AES, VAES, SHA, GFNI
+ - BMI1/2, POPCNT, FMA
+ - MOVDIRI, WAITPKG
+ - Other Meteor Lake–specific micro-optimizations when available.
+
+This matches and centralizes the "optimal flags" we otherwise would repeat in `CFLAGS/LDFLAGS`.
+
+### 1.2 Frontend Wrappers
+
+Provide thin wrappers that always select the DSMIL target:
+
+- `dsmil-clang`
+- `dsmil-clang++`
+- `dsmil-llc`
+
+Default options baked into wrappers:
+
+- `-target x86_64-dsmil-meteorlake-elf`
+- `-march=meteorlake -mtune=meteorlake`
+- `-O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -fstrict-aliasing -fno-plt`
+- `-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -flto=auto`
+
+These wrappers become the **canonical toolchain** for DSMIL kernel, drivers, and userland components.
+
+### 1.3 Device-Aware Code Model
+
+DSMIL defines 9 layers and 104 devices. DSLLVM integrates this via a **DSMIL code model**:
+
+- Each function may carry:
+
+ - `device_id` (0–103)
+ - `layer` (0–8 or 1–9)
+ - `role` (e.g. `control`, `llm_worker`, `crypto`, `telemetry`)
+
+- Backend uses this to:
+
+ - Place functions in per-device/ per-layer sections:
+ - `.text.dsmil.dev47`, `.text.dsmil.layer7`, `.data.dsmil.dev12`, …
+ - Emit a sidecar mapping file (`*.dsmilmap`) describing symbol → layer/device/role.
+
+This enables the runtime, scheduler, and observability stack to understand code placement without extra scanning.
+
+---
+
+## 2. DSMIL Semantic Metadata in IR
+
+### 2.1 Source-Level Attributes
+
+Expose portable C/C++ attributes to encode DSMIL semantics at the source level:
+
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_layer(7)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_device(47)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_clearance(0x07070707)))
+__attribute__((dsmil_roe("ANALYSIS_ONLY")))
+__attribute__((dsmil_gateway))
+__attribute__((dsmil_sandbox("l7_llm_worker")))
+__attribute__((dsmil_stage("quantized")))
+__attribute__((dsmil_kv_cache))
+__attribute__((dsmil_hot_model))
+```
+
+Key attributes:
+
+* `dsmil_layer(int)` – DSMIL layer index (0–8 or 1–9).
+* `dsmil_device(int)` – DSMIL device id (0–103).
+* `dsmil_clearance(uint32)` – 32-bit clearance / compartment mask.
+* `dsmil_roe(string)` – Rules of Engagement (e.g. `ANALYSIS_ONLY`, `LIVE_CONTROL`).
+* `dsmil_gateway` – function is authorized to cross layer or device boundaries.
+* `dsmil_sandbox(string)` – role-based sandbox profile name.
+* `dsmil_stage(string)` – MLOps stage (`pretrain`, `finetune`, `quantized`, `distilled`, `serve`, `debug`, etc.).
+* `dsmil_kv_cache` – marks KV-cache storage.
+* `dsmil_hot_model` – marks hot-path model weights.
+
+### 2.2 IR Metadata Schema
+
+Front-end lowers attributes to LLVM metadata:
+
+For functions:
+
+* `!dsmil.layer = i32 7`
+* `!dsmil.device_id = i32 47`
+* `!dsmil.clearance = i32 0x07070707`
+* `!dsmil.roe = !"ANALYSIS_ONLY"`
+* `!dsmil.gateway = i1 true`
+* `!dsmil.sandbox = !"l7_llm_worker"`
+* `!dsmil.stage = !"quantized"`
+* `!dsmil.memory_class = !"kv_cache"` (for `dsmil_kv_cache`)
+
+For globals:
+
+* `!dsmil.sensitivity = !"MODEL_WEIGHTS"`
+* `!dsmil.memory_class = !"hot_model"`
+
+### 2.3 Verification Pass: `dsmil-layer-check`
+
+Add a module pass: **`dsmil-layer-check`** that:
+
+* Walks the call graph and verifies:
+
+ * Disallowed layer transitions (e.g. low → high without `dsmil_gateway`) are rejected.
+ * Functions with lower `dsmil_clearance` cannot call higher-clearance functions unless flagged as an explicit gateway with ROE.
+ * ROE transitions follow a policy (e.g. `ANALYSIS_ONLY` cannot escalate into `LIVE_CONTROL` code without explicit exemption metadata).
+
+* On violation:
+
+ * Emit detailed diagnostics (file, function, caller→callee, layer/clearance values).
+ * Optionally generate a JSON report (`*.dsmilviolations.json`) for CI.
+
+This ensures DSMIL layering and clearance policies are enforced **at compile-time**, not just at runtime.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Bandwidth & Memory-Aware Optimization
+
+### 3.1 Bandwidth Cost Model: `dsmil-bandwidth-estimate`
+
+Introduce mid-end analysis pass **`dsmil-bandwidth-estimate`**:
+
+* For each function, compute:
+
+ * Approximate `bytes_read`, `bytes_written` (per invocation).
+ * Vectorization characteristics (SSE, AVX2, AVX-VNNI use).
+ * Access patterns (contiguous vs strided, gather/scatter hints).
+
+* Derive:
+
+ * `bw_gbps_estimate` under an assumed memory model (e.g. 64 GB/s).
+ * `memory_class` labels such as:
+
+ * `kv_cache`
+ * `model_weights`
+ * `hot_ram`
+ * `cold_storage`
+
+* Attach metadata:
+
+ * `!dsmil.bw_bytes_read`
+ * `!dsmil.bw_bytes_written`
+ * `!dsmil.bw_gbps_estimate`
+ * `!dsmil.memory_class`
+
+### 3.2 Placement & Hints: `dsmil-device-placement`
+
+Add pass **`dsmil-device-placement`** (mid-end or LTO):
+
+* Uses:
+
+ * DSMIL semantic metadata (layer, device, sensitivity).
+ * Bandwidth estimates.
+
+* Computes:
+
+ * Recommended execution target per function:
+
+ * `"cpu"`, `"npu"`, `"gpu"`, `"hybrid"`
+ * Recommended memory tier:
+
+ * `"ramdisk"`, `"tmpfs"`, `"local_ssd"`, `"remote_minio"`, etc.
+
+* Encodes this in:
+
+ * IR metadata: `!dsmil.placement` = !"{target: npu, memory: ramdisk}"
+ * Sidecar file (see next section).
+
+### 3.3 Sidecar Mapping File: `*.dsmilmap`
+
+For each linked binary, emit `binary_name.dsmilmap` (JSON or CBOR):
+
+Example entry:
+
+```json
+{
+ "symbol": "llm_decode_step",
+ "layer": 7,
+ "device_id": 47,
+ "clearance": "0x07070707",
+ "stage": "serve",
+ "bw_gbps_estimate": 23.5,
+ "memory_class": "kv_cache",
+ "placement": {
+ "target": "npu",
+ "memory_tier": "ramdisk"
+ }
+}
+```
+
+This file is consumed by:
+
+* DSMIL orchestrator / scheduler.
+* MLOps stack.
+* Observability and audit tooling.
+
+---
+
+## 4. MLOps Stage-Aware Compilation
+
+### 4.1 Stage Semantics: `dsmil_stage`
+
+`__attribute__((dsmil_stage("...")))` encodes MLOps lifecycle information:
+
+Examples:
+
+* `"pretrain"` – Pre-training phase code/artifacts.
+* `"finetune"` – Fine-tuning for specific tasks.
+* `"quantized"` – Quantized model code (INT8/INT4, etc.).
+* `"distilled"` – Distilled/compact models.
+* `"serve"` – Serving / inference path.
+* `"debug"` – Debug-only diagnostics.
+* `"experimental"` – Non-production experiments.
+
+### 4.2 Policy Pass: `dsmil-stage-policy`
+
+Add pass **`dsmil-stage-policy`** that validates stage usage:
+
+Policy examples (configurable):
+
+* **Production binaries (`DSMIL_PRODUCTION`):**
+
+ * No `debug` or `experimental` stages allowed.
+ * L≥3 must not link untagged or `pretrain` code.
+ * L≥3 LLM workloads must be `quantized` or `distilled`.
+
+* **Sandbox / lab binaries:**
+
+ * Allow more flexibility but log stage mixes.
+
+On violation:
+
+* Emit compile-time errors or warnings depending on policy strictness.
+* Generate `*.dsmilstage-report.json` for CI.
+
+### 4.3 Pipeline Integration
+
+The `*.dsmilmap` entries include `stage` per symbol. MLOps uses it to:
+
+* Select deployment targets (training cluster vs serving edge).
+* Enforce that only compliant artifacts are deployed to production.
+* Drive automated quantization/optimization pipelines (if `stage != quantized`, schedule quantization job).
+
+---
+
+## 5. CNSA 2.0 Provenance & Sandbox Integration
+
+**Objectives:**
+
+* Provide strong, CNSA 2.0–aligned provenance for each binary:
+
+ * **Hash:** SHA-384
+ * **Signature:** ML-DSA-87
+ * **KEM:** ML-KEM-1024 (for optional confidentiality of provenance/policy data).
+* Provide standardized, attribute-driven sandboxing using libcap-ng + seccomp.
+
+### 5.1 Cryptographic Roles & Keys
+
+Logical key roles:
+
+1. **Toolchain Signing Key (TSK)**
+
+ * Algorithm: ML-DSA-87
+ * Used to sign:
+
+ * DSLLVM release manifests (optional).
+ * Toolchain provenance if desired.
+
+2. **Project Signing Key (PSK)**
+
+ * Algorithm: ML-DSA-87
+ * One per project/product line.
+ * Used to sign each binary's provenance.
+
+3. **Runtime Decryption Key (RDK)**
+
+ * Algorithm: ML-KEM-1024
+ * Used by DSMIL runtime components (kernel/LSM/loader) to decapsulate symmetric keys for decrypting sensitive provenance/policy blobs.
+
+All hashing: **SHA-384**.
+
+### 5.2 Provenance Record Lifecycle
+
+At link-time, DSLLVM produces a **provenance record**:
+
+1. Construct logical object:
+
+ ```json
+ {
+ "schema": "dsmil-provenance-v1",
+ "compiler": {
+ "name": "dsmil-clang",
+ "version": "X.Y.Z",
+ "target": "x86_64-dsmil-meteorlake-elf"
+ },
+ "source": {
+ "vcs": "git",
+ "repo": "https://github.com/SWORDIntel/...",
+ "commit": "abcd1234...",
+ "dirty": false
+ },
+ "build": {
+ "timestamp": "...",
+ "builder_id": "build-node-01",
+ "flags": ["-O3", "-march=meteorlake", "..."]
+ },
+ "dsmil": {
+ "default_layer": 7,
+ "default_device": 47,
+ "roles": ["llm_worker", "control_plane"]
+ },
+ "hashes": {
+ "binary_sha384": "…",
+ "sections": {
+ ".text": "…",
+ ".rodata": "…"
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ ```
+
+2. Canonicalize structure → `prov_canonical` (e.g., deterministic JSON or CBOR).
+
+3. Compute `H = SHA-384(prov_canonical)`.
+
+4. Sign `H` using ML-DSA-87 with PSK → signature `σ`.
+
+5. Produce final record:
+
+ ```json
+ {
+ "prov": { ... },
+ "hash_alg": "SHA-384",
+ "sig_alg": "ML-DSA-87",
+ "sig": "…"
+ }
+ ```
+
+6. Embed in ELF:
+
+ * `.note.dsmil.provenance` (compact format, possibly CBOR)
+ * Optionally a dedicated loadable segment `.dsmil_prov`.
+
+### 5.3 Optional Confidentiality With ML-KEM-1024
+
+For high-sensitivity environments:
+
+1. Generate symmetric key `K`.
+
+2. Encrypt `prov` (or part of it) using AEAD (e.g., AES-256-GCM) with key `K`.
+
+3. Encapsulate `K` using ML-KEM-1024 RDK public key → ciphertext `ct`.
+
+4. Wrap structure:
+
+ ```json
+ {
+ "enc_prov": "…", // AEAD ciphertext + tag
+ "kem_alg": "ML-KEM-1024",
+ "kem_ct": "…",
+ "hash_alg": "SHA-384",
+ "sig_alg": "ML-DSA-87",
+ "sig": "…"
+ }
+ ```
+
+5. Embed into ELF sections as above.
+
+This ensures only entities that hold the **RDK private key** can decrypt provenance while validation remains globally verifiable.
+
+### 5.4 Runtime Validation
+
+On `execve` or kernel module load, DSMIL loader/LSM:
+
+1. Extract `.note.dsmil.provenance` / `.dsmil_prov`.
+
+2. If encrypted:
+
+ * Decapsulate `K` using ML-KEM-1024.
+ * Decrypt AEAD payload.
+
+3. Recompute SHA-384 hash over canonicalized provenance.
+
+4. Verify ML-DSA-87 signature against PSK (and optionally TSK trust chain).
+
+5. If validation fails:
+
+ * Deny execution or require explicit emergency override.
+
+6. If validation succeeds:
+
+ * Expose trusted provenance to:
+
+ * Policy engine for layer/role enforcement.
+ * Audit/forensics systems.
+
+### 5.5 Sandbox Wrapping: `dsmil_sandbox`
+
+Attribute:
+
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_sandbox("l7_llm_worker")))
+int main(int argc, char **argv);
+```
+
+Link-time pass **`dsmil-sandbox-wrap`**:
+
+* Renames original `main` → `main_real`.
+* Injects wrapper `main` that:
+
+ * Applies a role-specific **capability profile** using libcap-ng.
+ * Installs a role-specific **seccomp** filter (predefined profile tied to sandbox name).
+ * Optionally loads runtime policy derived from provenance (which may have been decrypted via ML-KEM-1024).
+ * Calls `main_real()`.
+
+Provenance record includes:
+
+* `sandbox_profile = "l7_llm_worker"`
+
+This provides standardized, role-based sandbox behavior across DSMIL binaries with **minimal developer burden**.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Quantum-Assisted Optimization Hooks (Device 46)
+
+Device 46 is reserved for **quantum integration / experimental optimization**. DSLLVM provides hooks without coupling production code to quantum tooling.
+
+### 6.1 Quantum Candidate Tagging
+
+Attribute:
+
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_quantum_candidate("placement")))
+void placement_solver(...);
+```
+
+Semantics:
+
+* Marks a function as a **candidate for quantum optimization / offload**.
+* Optional string differentiates class of problem:
+
+ * `"placement"` (model/device placement).
+ * `"routing"` (network path selection).
+ * `"schedule"` (job scheduling).
+ * `"hyperparam_search"` (hyperparameter tuning).
+
+Lowered metadata:
+
+* `!dsmil.quantum_candidate = !"placement"`
+
+### 6.2 Problem Extraction Pass: `dsmil-quantum-export`
+
+Pass **`dsmil-quantum-export`**:
+
+* For each `dsmil_quantum_candidate`:
+
+ * Analyze function and extract:
+
+ * Variables and constraints representing optimization problem, where feasible.
+ * Map to QUBO/Ising style formulation when patterns match known templates.
+
+* Emit sidecar files per binary:
+
+ * `binary_name.quantum.json` (or `.yaml` / `.qubo`) describing problem instances.
+
+Example structure:
+
+```json
+{
+ "schema": "dsmil-quantum-v1",
+ "binary": "scheduler.bin",
+ "functions": [
+ {
+ "name": "placement_solver",
+ "kind": "placement",
+ "representation": "qubo",
+ "qubo": {
+ "Q": [[0, 1], [1, 0]],
+ "variables": ["model_1_device_47", "model_1_device_12"]
+ }
+ }
+ ]
+}
+```
+
+### 6.3 External Quantum Flow
+
+* DSLLVM itself remains classical.
+* External **Quantum Orchestrator (Device 46)**:
+
+ * Consumes `*.quantum.json` / `.qubo`.
+ * Maps problems into Qiskit/other frameworks.
+ * Runs VQE/QAOA/other routines.
+ * Writes back improved parameters / mappings as:
+
+ * `*.quantum_solution.json` that DSMIL runtime or next build can ingest.
+
+This allows iterative improvement of placement/scheduling/hyperparameters using quantum tooling without destabilizing the core toolchain.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Tooling, Packaging & Repo Layout
+
+### 7.1 CLI Tools & Wrappers
+
+Provide the following user-facing tools:
+
+* `dsmil-clang`, `dsmil-clang++`, `dsmil-llc`
+
+ * Meteor Lake + DSMIL defaults baked in.
+
+* `dsmil-opt`
+
+ * Wrapper around `opt` with DSMIL pass pipeline presets.
+
+* `dsmil-verify`
+
+ * High-level command that:
+
+ * Runs provenance verification on binaries.
+ * Checks DSMIL layer policy, stage policy, and sandbox config.
+ * Outputs human-readable and JSON summaries.
+
+### 7.2 Standard Pass Pipelines
+
+Recommended default pass pipeline for **production DSMIL binary**:
+

+ * Runtime validation via provenance
+
+3. **Privilege Escalation**
+ * Mitigation: `dsmil-sandbox-wrap` with libcap-ng + seccomp
+ * ROE policy enforcement
+
+4. **Side-Channel Attacks**
+ * Consideration: Constant-time crypto operations in provenance system
+ * Metadata encryption via ML-KEM-1024 for sensitive deployments
+
+### Compliance
+
+* **CNSA 2.0**: SHA-384, ML-DSA-87, ML-KEM-1024
+* **FIPS 140-3**: When using approved crypto implementations
+* **Common Criteria**: EAL4+ target for provenance system
+
+---
+
+## Appendix E – Performance Considerations
+
+### Compilation Overhead
+
+* **Metadata Emission**: <1% overhead
+* **Analysis Passes**: 2-5% compilation time increase
+* **Provenance Generation**: 1-3% link time increase
+* **Total**: <10% increase in build times
+
+### Runtime Overhead
+
+* **Provenance Validation**: One-time cost at program load (~10-50ms)
+* **Sandbox Setup**: One-time cost at program start (~5-20ms)
+* **Metadata Access**: Zero runtime overhead (compile-time only)
+
+### Memory Overhead
+
+* **Binary Size**: +5-15% (metadata, provenance sections)
+* **Sidecar Files**: ~1-5 KB per binary (`.dsmilmap`, `.quantum.json`)

+
+---
+
+### 1.4 `dsmil-kernel` (Kernel Mode)
+
+**Use Case**: DSMIL kernel, drivers, layer 0-2 code
+
+**Invocation**:
+```bash

+ kernel_hardening: enabled
+```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Pass Details
+
+### 2.1 `dsmil-metadata-propagate`
+
+**Type**: Module pass (early)
+
+**Purpose**: Ensure DSMIL attributes are consistently represented as IR metadata
+
+**Actions**:
+1. Walk all functions with `dsmil_*` attributes
+2. Create corresponding IR metadata nodes
+3. Propagate metadata to inlined callees
+4. Handle defaults (e.g., layer 0 if unspecified)
+
+**Example IR Transformation**:
+
+Before:
+```llvm
+define void @foo() #0 {
+ ; ...
+}
+attributes #0 = { "dsmil_layer"="7" "dsmil_device"="47" }
+```
+
+After:
+```llvm
+define void @foo() !dsmil.layer !1 !dsmil.device_id !2 {
+ ; ...
+}
+!1 = !{i32 7}
+!2 = !{i32 47}
+```
+
+---
+
+### 2.2 `dsmil-bandwidth-estimate`
+
+**Type**: Function pass (analysis)
+
+**Purpose**: Estimate memory bandwidth requirements
+
+**Algorithm**:
+```
+For each function:
+ 1. Walk all load/store instructions
+ 2. Classify access patterns:
+ - Sequential: stride = element_size
+ - Strided: stride > element_size
+ - Random: gather/scatter or unpredictable
+ 3. Account for vectorization:
+ - AVX2 (256-bit): 4x throughput
+ - AVX-512 (512-bit): 8x throughput
+ 4. Compute:
+ bytes_read = Σ(load_size × trip_count)
+ bytes_written = Σ(store_size × trip_count)
+ 5. Estimate GB/s assuming 64 GB/s peak bandwidth:
+ bw_gbps = (bytes_read + bytes_written) / execution_time_estimate
+ 6. Classify memory class:
+ - kv_cache: >20 GB/s, random access
+ - model_weights: >10 GB/s, sequential
+ - hot_ram: >5 GB/s
+ - cold_storage: <1 GB/s
+```
+
+**Output Metadata**:
+```llvm
+!dsmil.bw_bytes_read = !{i64 1048576000} ; 1 GB
+!dsmil.bw_bytes_written = !{i64 524288000} ; 512 MB
+!dsmil.bw_gbps_estimate = !{double 23.5}
+!dsmil.memory_class = !{!"kv_cache"}
+```
+
+---
+
+### 2.3 `dsmil-device-placement`
+
+**Type**: Module pass (analysis + annotation)
+
+**Purpose**: Recommend execution target (CPU/NPU/GPU) and memory tier
+
+**Decision Logic**:
+
+```python
+def recommend_placement(function):
+ layer = function.metadata['dsmil.layer']
+ device = function.metadata['dsmil.device_id']
+ bw_gbps = function.metadata['dsmil.bw_gbps_estimate']
+
+ # Device-specific hints
+ if device == 47: # NPU primary
+ target = 'npu'
+ elif device in [40, 41, 42]: # GPU accelerators
+ target = 'gpu'
+ elif device in [30..39]: # Crypto accelerators
+ target = 'cpu_crypto'
+ else:
+ target = 'cpu'
+
+ # Bandwidth-based memory tier
+ if bw_gbps > 30:
+ memory_tier = 'ramdisk' # Fastest
+ elif bw_gbps > 15:
+ memory_tier = 'tmpfs'
+ elif bw_gbps > 5:
+ memory_tier = 'local_ssd'
+ else:
+ memory_tier = 'remote_minio' # Network storage OK
+
+ # Stage-specific overrides
+ if function.metadata['dsmil.stage'] == 'pretrain':
+ memory_tier = 'local_ssd' # Checkpoints
+
+ return {
+ 'target': target,
+ 'memory_tier': memory_tier
+ }
+```
+
+**Output**:
+- IR metadata: `!dsmil.placement = !{!"target: npu, memory: ramdisk"}`
+- Sidecar: `binary_name.dsmilmap` with per-function recommendations
+
+---
+
+### 2.4 `dsmil-layer-check`
+
+**Type**: Module pass (verification)
+
+**Purpose**: Enforce DSMIL layer boundary policies
+
+**Algorithm**:
+```
+For each call edge (caller → callee):
+ 1. Extract layer_caller, clearance_caller, roe_caller
+ 2. Extract layer_callee, clearance_callee, roe_callee
+
+ 3. Check layer transition:
+ If layer_caller > layer_callee:
+ // Downward call (safer, usually allowed)
+ OK
+ Else if layer_caller < layer_callee:
+ // Upward call (privileged, requires gateway)
+ If NOT callee.has_attribute('dsmil_gateway'):
+ ERROR: "Upward layer transition without gateway"
+ Else:
+ // Same layer
+ OK
+
+ 4. Check clearance:
+ If clearance_caller < clearance_callee:
+ If NOT callee.has_attribute('dsmil_gateway'):
+ ERROR: "Insufficient clearance to call function"
+
+ 5. Check ROE escalation:
+ If roe_caller == "ANALYSIS_ONLY" AND roe_callee == "LIVE_CONTROL":
+ If NOT callee.has_attribute('dsmil_gateway'):
+ ERROR: "ROE escalation requires gateway"
+```
+
+**Example Error**:
+```
+input.c:45:5: error: layer boundary violation
+ kernel_write(data);
+ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+note: caller 'user_function' is at layer 7 (user)
+note: callee 'kernel_write' is at layer 1 (kernel)
+note: add __attribute__((dsmil_gateway)) to 'kernel_write' or use a gateway function
+```
+
+---
+
+### 2.5 `dsmil-stage-policy`
+
+**Type**: Module pass (verification)
+
+**Purpose**: Enforce MLOps stage policies
+
+**Policy Rules** (configurable):
+
+```yaml
+production_policy:
+ allowed_stages: [pretrain, finetune, quantized, distilled, serve]
+ forbidden_stages: [debug, experimental]
+ min_layer_for_quantized: 3 # Layer ≥3 must use quantized models
+
+development_policy:
+ allowed_stages: [pretrain, finetune, quantized, distilled, serve, debug, experimental]
+ forbidden_stages: []
+ warnings_only: true
+
+kernel_policy:
+ allowed_stages: [serve, production_kernel]
+ forbidden_stages: [debug, experimental, pretrain, finetune]
+```
+
+**Example Error**:
+```
+input.c:12:1: error: stage policy violation
+__attribute__((dsmil_stage("debug")))
+^
+note: production binaries cannot link dsmil_stage("debug") code
+note: build configuration: DSMIL_POLICY=production
+```
+
+---
+
+### 2.6 `dsmil-quantum-export`
+
+**Type**: Function pass (analysis + export)
+
+**Purpose**: Extract optimization problems for quantum offload
+
+**Process**:
+1. Identify functions with `dsmil_quantum_candidate` attribute
+2. Analyze function body:
+ - Extract integer variables (candidates for QUBO variables)
+ - Identify optimization loops (for/while with min/max objectives)
+ - Detect constraint patterns (if statements, bounds checks)
+3. Attempt QUBO/Ising mapping:
+ - Binary decision variables → qubits
+ - Objective function → Q matrix (quadratic terms)
+ - Constraints → penalty terms in Q matrix
+4. Export to `*.quantum.json`
+
+**Example Input**:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_quantum_candidate("placement")))
+int placement_solver(struct model models[], struct device devices[], int n) {
+ int cost = 0;
+ int placement[n]; // placement[i] = device index for model i
+
+ // Minimize communication cost
+ for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
+ for (int j = i+1; j < n; j++) {
+ if (models[i].depends_on[j] && placement[i] != placement[j]) {
+ cost += communication_cost(devices[placement[i]], devices[placement[j]]);
+ }
+ }
+ }
+
+ return cost;
+}
+```
+
+**Example Output** (`*.quantum.json`):
+```json
+{
+ "schema": "dsmil-quantum-v1",
+ "functions": [
+ {
+ "name": "placement_solver",
+ "kind": "placement",
+ "representation": "qubo",
+ "variables": 16, // n=4 models × 4 devices
+ "qubo": {
+ "Q": [[/* 16×16 matrix */]],
+ "variable_names": [
+ "model_0_device_0", "model_0_device_1", ...,
+ "model_3_device_3"
+ ],
+ "constraints": {
+ "one_hot": "each model assigned to exactly one device"
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ ]
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+### 2.7 `dsmil-sandbox-wrap`
+
+**Type**: Link-time transform
+
+**Purpose**: Inject sandbox setup wrapper around `main()`
+
+**Transformation**:
+
+Before:
+```c
+__attribute__((dsmil_sandbox("l7_llm_worker")))
+int main(int argc, char **argv) {
+ return llm_worker_loop();
+}
+```
+
+After (conceptual):
+```c
+// Original main renamed
+int main_real(int argc, char **argv) __asm__("main_real");
+int main_real(int argc, char **argv) {
+ return llm_worker_loop();
+}
+
+// New main injected
+int main(int argc, char **argv) {
+ // 1. Load sandbox profile
+ const struct dsmil_sandbox_profile *profile =
+ dsmil_get_sandbox_profile("l7_llm_worker");
+
+ // 2. Drop capabilities (libcap-ng)
+ capng_clear(CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH);
+ capng_updatev(CAPNG_ADD, CAPNG_EFFECTIVE | CAPNG_PERMITTED,
+ CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE, -1); // Example: only allow binding ports
+ capng_apply(CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH);
+
+ // 3. Install seccomp filter
+ struct sock_fprog prog = {
+ .len = profile->seccomp_filter_len,
+ .filter = profile->seccomp_filter
+ };
+ prctl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS, 1, 0, 0, 0);
+ prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP, SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER, &prog);
+

+
+### 2.8 `dsmil-provenance-emit`
+
+**Type**: Link-time transform
+
+**Purpose**: Generate, sign, and embed CNSA 2.0 provenance
+
+**Process**:
+1. **Collect metadata**:
+ - Compiler version, target triple, commit hash
+ - Git repo, commit, dirty status
+ - Build timestamp, builder ID, flags
+ - DSMIL layer/device/role assignments
+2. **Compute hashes**:
+ - Binary hash (SHA-384 over all PT_LOAD segments)
+ - Section hashes (per ELF section)
+3. **Canonicalize provenance**:
+ - Serialize to deterministic JSON or CBOR
+4. **Sign**:
+ - Hash canonical provenance with SHA-384
+ - Sign hash with ML-DSA-87 using PSK
+5. **Embed**:
+ - Create `.note.dsmil.provenance` section
+ - Add NOTE program header
+
+**Configuration**:
+```bash
+export DSMIL_PSK_PATH=/secure/keys/psk_2025.pem
+export DSMIL_BUILD_ID=$(uuidgen)
+export DSMIL_BUILDER_ID=$(hostname)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Custom Pipeline Configuration
+
+### 3.1 Override Default Pipeline
+
+```bash
+# Use custom pass order
+dsmil-clang -O3 \
+ -fpass-plugin=/opt/dsmil/lib/DsmilPasses.so \
+ -fpass-order=inline,dsmil-metadata-propagate,sroa,instcombine,gvn,... \
+ -o output input.c
+```
+
+### 3.2 Skip Specific Passes
+
+```bash
+# Skip stage policy check (development override)
+dsmil-clang -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default \
+ -mllvm -dsmil-skip-stage-policy \
+ -o output input.c
+
+# Disable provenance (testing)
+dsmil-clang -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default \
+ -mllvm -dsmil-no-provenance \
+ -o output input.c
+```
+
+### 3.3 Pass Flags
+
+```bash
+# Layer check: warn instead of error
+-mllvm -dsmil-layer-check-mode=warn
+
+# Bandwidth estimate: use custom memory model
+-mllvm -dsmil-bandwidth-model=custom \
+-mllvm -dsmil-bandwidth-peak-gbps=128
+
+# Device placement: force CPU target
+-mllvm -dsmil-device-placement-override=cpu
+
+# Provenance: use test signing key
+-mllvm -dsmil-provenance-test-key=/tmp/test_psk.pem
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Integration with Build Systems
+
+### 4.1 CMake
+
+```cmake
+# Enable DSMIL toolchain
+set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER ${DSMIL_ROOT}/bin/dsmil-clang)
+set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER ${DSMIL_ROOT}/bin/dsmil-clang++)
+
+# Set default pipeline for target
+add_executable(llm_worker llm_worker.c)
+target_compile_options(llm_worker PRIVATE -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default)
+target_link_options(llm_worker PRIVATE -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default)
+
+# Development build: use debug pipeline
+if(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE STREQUAL "Debug")
+ target_compile_options(llm_worker PRIVATE -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-debug)
+endif()
+
+# Kernel module: use kernel pipeline
+add_library(dsmil_driver MODULE driver.c)
+target_compile_options(dsmil_driver PRIVATE -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-kernel)
+```
+
+### 4.2 Makefile
+
+```makefile
+CC = dsmil-clang
+CXX = dsmil-clang++
+CFLAGS = -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default
+
+# Per-target override
+llm_worker: llm_worker.c
+ $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default -o $@ $<
+
+debug_tool: debug_tool.c
+ $(CC) -O2 -g -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-debug -o $@ $<
+
+kernel_module.ko: kernel_module.c
+ $(CC) -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-kernel -ffreestanding -o $@ $<
+```
+
+### 4.3 Bazel
+
+```python
+# BUILD file
+cc_binary(
+ name = "llm_worker",
+ srcs = ["llm_worker.c"],
+ copts = [
+ "-fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default",
+ ],
+ linkopts = [
+ "-fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default",
+ ],
+ toolchains = ["@dsmil_toolchain//:cc"],
+)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. Performance Tuning
+
+### 5.1 Compilation Speed
+
+**Faster Builds** (development):
+```bash
+# Use dsmil-debug (no LTO, less optimization)
+dsmil-clang -O2 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-debug -o output input.c
+
+# Skip expensive passes
+dsmil-clang -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default \
+ -mllvm -dsmil-skip-quantum-export \ # Skip QUBO extraction
+ -mllvm -dsmil-skip-bandwidth-estimate \ # Skip bandwidth analysis
+ -o output input.c
+```
+
+**Faster LTO**:
+```bash
+# Use ThinLTO instead of full LTO
+dsmil-clang -O3 -flto=thin -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default -o output input.c
+```
+
+### 5.2 Runtime Performance
+
+**Aggressive Optimization**:
+```bash
+# Enable PGO (Profile-Guided Optimization)
+# 1. Instrumented build
+dsmil-clang -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default -fprofile-generate -o llm_worker input.c
+
+# 2. Training run
+./llm_worker < training_workload.txt
+
+# 3. Optimized build with profile
+dsmil-clang -O3 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default -fprofile-use=default.profdata -o llm_worker input.c
+```
+
+**Tuning for Meteor Lake**:
+```bash
+# Already included in dsmil-default, but can be explicit:
+dsmil-clang -O3 -march=meteorlake -mtune=meteorlake \
+ -mavx2 -mfma -maes -msha \ # Explicitly enable features
+ -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default \
+ -o output input.c
+```
+
+---
+
+## 6. Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: "Pass 'dsmil-layer-check' not found"
+
+**Solution**: Ensure DSMIL pass plugin is loaded:
+```bash
+export DSMIL_PASS_PLUGIN=/opt/dsmil/lib/DsmilPasses.so
+dsmil-clang -fpass-plugin=$DSMIL_PASS_PLUGIN -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default ...
+```
+
+### Issue: "Cannot find PSK for provenance signing"
+
+**Solution**: Set `DSMIL_PSK_PATH`:
+```bash
+export DSMIL_PSK_PATH=/secure/keys/psk_2025.pem
+# OR use test key for development:
+export DSMIL_PSK_PATH=/opt/dsmil/keys/test_psk.pem
+```
+
+### Issue: Compilation very slow with `dsmil-default`
+
+**Solution**: Use `dsmil-debug` for development iteration:
+```bash
+dsmil-clang -O2 -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-debug -o output input.c
+```

+# CNSA 2.0 Provenance System
+**Cryptographic Provenance and Integrity for DSLLVM Binaries**
+
+Version: v1.0
+Last Updated: 2025-11-24
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+The DSLLVM provenance system provides cryptographically-signed build provenance for every binary, using **CNSA 2.0** (Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2.0) post-quantum algorithms:
+
+- **SHA-384** for hashing
+- **ML-DSA-87** (FIPS 204 / CRYSTALS-Dilithium) for digital signatures
+- **ML-KEM-1024** (FIPS 203 / CRYSTALS-Kyber) for optional confidentiality
+
+This ensures:
+1. **Authenticity**: Verifiable origin and build parameters
+2. **Integrity**: Tamper-proof binaries
+3. **Auditability**: Complete build lineage for forensics
+4. **Quantum-resistance**: Protection against future quantum attacks
+
+---
+
+## 1. Cryptographic Foundations
+
+### 1.1 CNSA 2.0 Algorithms
+
+| Algorithm | Standard | Purpose | Security Level |
+|-----------|----------|---------|----------------|
+| SHA-384 | FIPS 180-4 | Hashing | 192-bit (quantum) |
+| ML-DSA-87 | FIPS 204 | Digital Signature | NIST Security Level 5 |
+| ML-KEM-1024 | FIPS 203 | Key Encapsulation | NIST Security Level 5 |
+| AES-256-GCM | FIPS 197 | AEAD Encryption | 256-bit |
+
+### 1.2 Key Hierarchy
+
+```
+ ┌─────────────────────────┐
+ │ Root Trust Anchor (RTA) │
+ │ (Offline, HSM-stored) │
+ └───────────┬─────────────┘
+ │ signs
+ ┌───────────────┴────────────────┐

+ │ Provenance │
+ └──────────────┘
+```
+
+**Key Roles**:
+
+1. **Root Trust Anchor (RTA)**:
+ - Ultimate authority, offline/airgapped
+ - Signs TSK and PRK certificates
+ - 10-year validity
+
+2. **Toolchain Signing Key (TSK)**:
+ - Signs DSLLVM release manifests
+ - Rotated annually
+ - Validates compiler authenticity
+
+3. **Project Root Key (PRK)**:
+ - Per-organization root key
+ - Signs Project Signing Keys
+ - 5-year validity
+
+4. **Project Signing Key (PSK)**:
+ - Per-project/product line
+ - Signs individual binary provenance
+ - Rotated every 6-12 months
+
+5. **Runtime Decryption Key (RDK)**:
+ - ML-KEM-1024 keypair
+ - Used to decrypt confidential provenance
+ - Stored in kernel/LSM trust store

+## 3. Build-Time Provenance Generation
+
+### 3.1 Link-Time Pass: `dsmil-provenance-pass`
+
+The `dsmil-provenance-pass` runs during LTO/link stage:
+
+**Inputs**:
+- Compiled object files
+- Link command line flags
+- Git repository metadata (via `git describe`, etc.)
+- Environment variables: `DSMIL_PSK_PATH`, `DSMIL_BUILD_ID`, etc.
+
+**Process**:
+
+1. **Collect Metadata**:
+ ```cpp
+ ProvenanceBuilder builder;
+ builder.setCompilerInfo(getClangVersion(), getTargetTriple());
+ builder.setSourceInfo(getGitRepo(), getGitCommit(), isDirty());
+ builder.setBuildInfo(getCurrentTime(), getBuilderID(), getFlags());
+ builder.setDSMILInfo(getDefaultLayer(), getRoles(), getSandbox());
+ ```
+
+2. **Compute Section Hashes**:
+ ```cpp
+ for (auto §ion : binary.sections()) {
+ if (section.name() != ".dsmil_prov") { // Don't hash provenance section itself
+ SHA384 hash = computeSHA384(section.data());
+ builder.addSectionHash(section.name(), hash);
+ }
+ }
+ ```
+
+3. **Compute Binary Hash**:
+ ```cpp
+ SHA384 binaryHash = computeSHA384(binary.getLoadableSegments());
+ builder.setBinaryHash(binaryHash);
+ ```
+
+4. **Canonicalize Provenance**:
+ ```cpp
+ std::string canonical = builder.toCanonicalJSON(); // Deterministic JSON
+ // OR: std::vector<uint8_t> cbor = builder.toCBOR();
+ ```
+
+5. **Sign Provenance**:
+ ```cpp
+ SHA384 provHash = computeSHA384(canonical);
+
+ MLDSAPrivateKey psk = loadPSK(getenv("DSMIL_PSK_PATH"));
+ std::vector<uint8_t> signature = psk.sign(provHash);
+
+ builder.setSignature("ML-DSA-87", signature);
+ builder.setSignerInfo(psk.getKeyID(), psk.getFingerprint(), psk.getCertChain());
+ ```
+
+6. **Optional: Add Timestamp**:
+ ```cpp
+ if (getenv("DSMIL_TSA_URL")) {
+ RFC3161Token token = getTSATimestamp(provHash, getenv("DSMIL_TSA_URL"));
+ builder.setTimestamp(token);
+ }
+ ```
+
+7. **Embed in Binary**:
+ ```cpp
+ std::vector<uint8_t> envelope = builder.build();
+ binary.addSection(".note.dsmil.provenance", envelope, SHF_ALLOC | SHF_MERGE);
+ // OR: binary.addSegment(".dsmil_prov", envelope, PT_NOTE);
+ ```

+## 5. Optional Confidentiality (ML-KEM-1024)
+
+### 5.1 Use Cases
+
+Encrypt provenance when:
+1. Source repository URLs are sensitive
+2. Build flags reveal proprietary optimizations
+3. Dependency versions are classified
+4. Deployment topology information is embedded
+
+### 5.2 Encryption Flow
+
+**Build-Time**:
+
+```cpp
+// 1. Generate random symmetric key
+uint8_t K[32]; // AES-256 key
+randombytes(K, 32);
+
+// 2. Encrypt provenance with AES-256-GCM
+std::string canonical = builder.toCanonicalJSON();
+uint8_t nonce[12];
+randombytes(nonce, 12);
+
+std::vector<uint8_t> ciphertext, tag;
+aes_256_gcm_encrypt(K, nonce, (const uint8_t*)canonical.data(), canonical.size(),
+ nullptr, 0, // no AAD
+ ciphertext, tag);
+
+// 3. Encapsulate K using ML-KEM-1024
+MLKEMPublicKey rdk = loadRDK(getenv("DSMIL_RDK_PATH"));
+std::vector<uint8_t> kem_ct, kem_ss;
+rdk.encapsulate(kem_ct, kem_ss); // kem_ss is shared secret
+
+// Derive encryption key from shared secret
+uint8_t K_derived[32];
+HKDF_SHA384(kem_ss.data(), kem_ss.size(), nullptr, 0, "dsmil-prov-v1", 13, K_derived, 32);
+
+// XOR original K with derived key (simple hybrid construction)
+for (int i = 0; i < 32; i++)

+
+## 6. Key Management
+
+### 6.1 Key Generation
+
+**Generate RTA (one-time, airgapped)**:
+
+```bash
+$ dsmil-keygen --type rta --output rta_key.pem --algorithm ML-DSA-87
+Generated Root Trust Anchor: rta_key.pem (PRIVATE - SECURE OFFLINE!)
+Public key fingerprint: SHA384:c3ab8ff13720e8ad9047dd39466b3c8974e592c2fa383d4a3960714caef0c4f2
+```
+
+**Generate TSK (signed by RTA)**:
+
+```bash
+$ dsmil-keygen --type tsk --ca rta_key.pem --output tsk_key.pem --validity 365
+Enter RTA passphrase: ****
+Generated Toolchain Signing Key: tsk_key.pem
+Certificate: tsk_cert.pem (valid for 365 days)
+```
+
+**Generate PSK (per project)**:
+
+```bash
+$ dsmil-keygen --type psk --project SWORDIntel/DSMIL --ca prk_key.pem --output psk_key.pem
+Enter PRK passphrase: ****
+Generated Project Signing Key: psk_key.pem
+Key ID: PSK-2025-SWORDIntel-DSMIL
+Certificate: psk_cert.pem
+```
+
+**Generate RDK (ML-KEM-1024 keypair)**:
+
+```bash
+$ dsmil-keygen --type rdk --algorithm ML-KEM-1024 --output rdk_key.pem
+Generated Runtime Decryption Key: rdk_key.pem (PRIVATE - KERNEL ONLY!)
+Public key: rdk_pub.pem (distribute to build systems)
+```
+
+### 6.2 Key Storage
+
+**Build System**:
+- PSK private key: Hardware Security Module (HSM) or encrypted key file
+- RDK public key: Plain file, distributed to CI/CD
+
+**Runtime System**:
+- RDK private key: Kernel keyring, sealed with TPM
+- PSK/PRK/RTA public keys: `/etc/dsmil/truststore/`
+
+```bash
+/etc/dsmil/truststore/
+├── rta_cert.pem
+├── prk_cert.pem
+├── psk_cert.pem
+└── revocation_list.crl
+```
+
+### 6.3 Key Rotation
+
+**PSK Rotation** (every 6-12 months):
+
+```bash
+# 1. Generate new PSK
+$ dsmil-keygen --type psk --project SWORDIntel/DSMIL --ca prk_key.pem --output psk_new.pem
+
+# 2. Update build system
+$ export DSMIL_PSK_PATH=/secure/keys/psk_new.pem
+
+# 3. Rebuild and deploy
+$ make clean && make
+
+# 4. Update runtime trust store (gradual rollout)
+$ dsmil-truststore add psk_new_cert.pem
+
+# 5. After grace period, revoke old key
+$ dsmil-truststore revoke PSK-2024-SWORDIntel-DSMIL
+$ dsmil-truststore publish-crl
+```
+
+---
+
+## 7. Tools & Utilities
+
+### 7.1 `dsmil-verify` - Provenance Verification Tool
+
+```bash
+# Basic verification
+$ dsmil-verify /usr/bin/llm_worker
+✓ Provenance present
+✓ Signature valid (PSK-2025-SWORDIntel-DSMIL)
+✓ Certificate chain valid
+✓ Binary hash matches
+✓ DSMIL metadata:
+ Layer: 7
+ Device: 47
+ Sandbox: l7_llm_worker
+ Stage: serve
+
+# Verbose output
+$ dsmil-verify --verbose /usr/bin/llm_worker
+Provenance Schema: dsmil-provenance-v1
+Compiler: dsmil-clang 19.0.0-dsmil (commit a3f4b2c1)
+Source: https://github.com/SWORDIntel/dsmil-kernel (commit f8d29a1c, clean)
+Built: 2025-11-24T15:30:45Z by ci-node-47
+Flags: -O3 -march=meteorlake -mtune=meteorlake -flto=auto -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default
+Binary Hash: d4f8c9a3e2b1f7c6d5a9b8e3f2a1c0b9d8e7f6a5b4c3d2e1f0a9b8c7d6e5f4a3
+Signature Algorithm: ML-DSA-87
+Signer: PSK-2025-SWORDIntel-DSMIL (fingerprint SHA384:a8b7c6d5...)
+Certificate Chain: PSK → PRK → RTA (all valid)
+
+# JSON output for automation
+$ dsmil-verify --json /usr/bin/llm_worker > report.json
+
+# Batch verification
+$ find /opt/dsmil/bin -type f -exec dsmil-verify --quiet {} \;
+```
+
+### 7.2 `dsmil-sign` - Manual Signing Tool
+
+```bash
+# Sign a binary post-build
+$ dsmil-sign --key /secure/psk_key.pem --binary my_program
+Enter passphrase: ****
+✓ Provenance generated and signed
+✓ Embedded in my_program
+
+# Re-sign with different key
+$ dsmil-sign --key /secure/psk_alternate.pem --binary my_program --force
+Warning: Overwriting existing provenance
+✓ Re-signed with PSK-2025-Alternate
+```
+
+### 7.3 `dsmil-truststore` - Trust Store Management
+
+```bash
+# Add new PSK
+$ sudo dsmil-truststore add psk_2025.pem
+Added PSK-2025-SWORDIntel-DSMIL to trust store
+
+# List trusted keys
+$ dsmil-truststore list
+PSK-2025-SWORDIntel-DSMIL (expires 2026-11-24) [ACTIVE]
+PSK-2024-SWORDIntel-DSMIL (expires 2025-11-24) [GRACE PERIOD]
+
+# Revoke key
+$ sudo dsmil-truststore revoke PSK-2024-SWORDIntel-DSMIL
+Revoked PSK-2024-SWORDIntel-DSMIL (reason: key_rotation)
+
+# Publish CRL
+$ sudo dsmil-truststore publish-crl --output /var/dsmil/revocation.crl
+```
+
+---
+
+## 8. Security Considerations
+
+### 8.1 Threat Model
+
+**Threats Mitigated**:
+- ✓ Binary tampering (integrity via signatures)
+- ✓ Supply chain attacks (provenance traceability)
+- ✓ Unauthorized execution (policy enforcement)
+- ✓ Quantum cryptanalysis (CNSA 2.0 algorithms)
+- ✓ Key compromise (rotation, certificate chains)
+
+**Residual Risks**:
+- ⚠ Compromised build system (mitigation: secure build enclaves, TPM attestation)
+- ⚠ Insider threats (mitigation: multi-party signing, audit logs)
+- ⚠ Zero-day in crypto implementation (mitigation: multiple algorithm support)
+
+### 8.2 Side-Channel Resistance
+
+All cryptographic operations use constant-time implementations:
+- **libdsmil_crypto**: FIPS 140-3 validated, constant-time ML-DSA and ML-KEM
+- **SHA-384**: Hardware-accelerated (Intel SHA Extensions) when available
+- **AES-256-GCM**: AES-NI instructions (constant-time)
+
+### 8.3 Audit & Forensics
+
+Every provenance verification generates audit events:
+
+```c
+audit_log(AUDIT_DSMIL_EXEC,
+ "pid=%d uid=%d binary=%s prov_valid=%d psk_id=%s layer=%d device=%d",
+ current->pid, current->uid, bprm->filename, result, psk_id, layer, device);
+```
+
+Centralized logging for forensics:
+```
+/var/log/dsmil/provenance.log
+2025-11-24T15:45:30Z [INFO] pid=4829 uid=1000 binary=/usr/bin/llm_worker prov_valid=1 psk_id=PSK-2025-SWORDIntel-DSMIL layer=7 device=47
+2025-11-24T15:46:12Z [WARN] pid=4871 uid=0 binary=/tmp/malicious prov_valid=0 reason=no_provenance
+2025-11-24T15:47:05Z [ERROR] pid=4903 uid=1000 binary=/opt/app/service prov_valid=0 reason=signature_failed
+```
+

+| **Total link-time overhead** | **~30 ms** | Per binary |
+
+### 9.2 Verification Performance
+
+| Operation | Duration (ms) | Notes |
+|-----------|---------------|-------|
+| Load provenance section | 1 ms | mmap-based |
+| CBOR decoding | 2 ms | |
+| SHA-384 binary hash | 8 ms | 10 MB binary |
+| Certificate chain validation | 15 ms | 3-level chain |
+| ML-DSA-87 verification | 5 ms | Faster than signing |
+| **Total runtime overhead** | **~30 ms** | One-time per exec |
+
+---
+

+- ✓ **KEM**: ML-KEM-1024 (FIPS 203, Security Level 5)
+- ✓ **AEAD**: AES-256-GCM (FIPS 197 + SP 800-38D)
+
+### 10.2 FIPS 140-3 Requirements
+
+Implementation uses **libdsmil_crypto** (FIPS 140-3 Level 2 validated):
+- Module: libdsmil_crypto v1.0.0
+- Certificate: (pending, target 2026-Q1)
+- Validated algorithms: SHA-384, AES-256-GCM, ML-DSA-87, ML-KEM-1024

+# DSMIL LLVM Passes
+
+This directory contains DSMIL-specific LLVM optimization, analysis, and transformation passes.
+
+## Pass Descriptions
+
+### Analysis Passes
+
+#### `DsmilBandwidthPass.cpp`
+Estimates memory bandwidth requirements for functions. Analyzes load/store patterns, vectorization, and computes bandwidth estimates. Outputs metadata used by device placement pass.
+
+**Metadata Output**:
+- `!dsmil.bw_bytes_read`
+- `!dsmil.bw_bytes_written`
+- `!dsmil.bw_gbps_estimate`
+- `!dsmil.memory_class`
+
+#### `DsmilDevicePlacementPass.cpp`
+Recommends execution target (CPU/NPU/GPU) and memory tier based on DSMIL metadata and bandwidth estimates. Generates `.dsmilmap` sidecar files.
+
+**Metadata Input**: Layer, device, bandwidth estimates
+**Metadata Output**: `!dsmil.placement`
+
+### Verification Passes
+
+#### `DsmilLayerCheckPass.cpp`
+Enforces DSMIL layer boundary policies. Walks call graph and rejects disallowed transitions without `dsmil_gateway` attribute. Emits detailed diagnostics on violations.
+
+**Policy**: Configurable via `-mllvm -dsmil-layer-check-mode=<enforce|warn>`
+
+#### `DsmilStagePolicyPass.cpp`
+Validates MLOps stage usage. Ensures production binaries don't link debug/experimental code. Configurable per deployment target.
+
+**Policy**: Configured via `DSMIL_POLICY` environment variable
+
+### Export Passes
+
+#### `DsmilQuantumExportPass.cpp`
+Extracts optimization problems from `dsmil_quantum_candidate` functions. Attempts QUBO/Ising formulation and exports to `.quantum.json` sidecar.
+
+**Output**: `<binary>.quantum.json`
+
+### Transformation Passes
+
+#### `DsmilSandboxWrapPass.cpp`
+Link-time transformation that injects sandbox setup wrapper around `main()` for binaries with `dsmil_sandbox` attribute. Renames `main` → `main_real` and creates new `main` with libcap-ng + seccomp setup.
+
+**Runtime**: Requires `libdsmil_sandbox_runtime.a`
+
+#### `DsmilProvenancePass.cpp`
+Link-time transformation that generates CNSA 2.0 provenance record, signs with ML-DSA-87, and embeds in ELF binary as `.note.dsmil.provenance` section.
+
+**Runtime**: Requires `libdsmil_provenance_runtime.a` and CNSA 2.0 crypto libraries
+
+## Building
+
+Passes are built as part of the main LLVM build when `LLVM_ENABLE_DSMIL=ON`:
+
+```bash
+cmake -G Ninja -S llvm -B build \
+ -DLLVM_ENABLE_DSMIL=ON \
+ ...
+ninja -C build
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+Run pass-specific tests:
+
+```bash
+# All DSMIL pass tests
+ninja -C build check-dsmil
+
+# Specific pass tests
+ninja -C build check-dsmil-layer
+ninja -C build check-dsmil-provenance
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Via Pipeline Presets
+
+```bash
+# Use predefined pipeline
+dsmil-clang -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default ...
+```
+
+### Manual Pass Invocation
+
+```bash
+# Run specific pass
+opt -load-pass-plugin=libDSMILPasses.so \
+ -passes=dsmil-bandwidth-estimate,dsmil-layer-check \
+ input.ll -o output.ll
+```
+
+### Pass Flags
+
+Each pass supports configuration via `-mllvm` flags:
+
+```bash
+# Layer check: warn only
+-mllvm -dsmil-layer-check-mode=warn
+
+# Bandwidth: custom memory model
+-mllvm -dsmil-bandwidth-peak-gbps=128
+
+# Provenance: use test key
+-mllvm -dsmil-provenance-test-key=/tmp/test.pem
+```
+

+
+## Contributing
+
+When implementing runtime libraries:
+
+1. Follow secure coding practices (no buffer overflows, check all syscall returns)
+2. Use constant-time crypto operations
+3. Minimize dependencies (static linking preferred)
+4. Add extensive error handling and logging
+5. Write comprehensive unit tests
+
+See [CONTRIBUTING.md](../../CONTRIBUTING.md) for details.
+
+---
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### Sandbox Runtime
+
+- Profile parsing must be robust against malformed input
+- Seccomp filters must be installed before any privileged operations
+- Capability drops are irreversible (design constraint)
+- Resource limits prevent DoS attacks
+
+### Provenance Runtime
+
+- Signature verification must be constant-time
+- Trust store must be immutable at runtime (read-only filesystem)
+- Private keys must never be in memory longer than necessary
+- Binary hash computation must cover all executable sections
+
+---
+
+## Performance
+
+### Sandbox Setup Overhead
+
+- Profile loading: ~1-2 ms
+- Capability setup: ~1 ms
+- Seccomp installation: ~2-5 ms
+- Total: ~5-10 ms one-time startup cost
+
+### Provenance Operations
+
+**Build-Time**:
+- Metadata collection: ~5 ms
+- SHA-384 hashing (10 MB binary): ~8 ms
+- ML-DSA-87 signing: ~12 ms
+- ELF embedding: ~5 ms
+- Total: ~30 ms per binary
+
+**Runtime**:
+- ELF extraction: ~1 ms
+- SHA-384 verification: ~8 ms
+- Certificate chain: ~15 ms (3-level)
+- ML-DSA-87 verification: ~5 ms
+- Total: ~30 ms one-time per exec
+
+---
+

+
+**Test Formats**:
+- `.c` / `.cpp`: C/C++ source files with embedded RUN/CHECK directives
+- `.ll`: LLVM IR files
+- `.sh`: Shell scripts for integration tests
+
+### FileCheck
+
+Tests use LLVM's FileCheck for output verification:
+
+```c
+// RUN: dsmil-clang %s -o /dev/null 2>&1 | FileCheck %s
+// CHECK: error: layer boundary violation
+// CHECK-NEXT: note: caller 'foo' is at layer 7
+```
+
+**FileCheck Directives**:
+- `CHECK`: Match pattern
+- `CHECK-NEXT`: Match on next line
+- `CHECK-NOT`: Pattern must not appear
+- `CHECK-DAG`: Match in any order

+}
+
+// CHECK: expected output
+// CHECK-NOT: unexpected output
+
+int main(void) {
+ test_function();
+ return 0;
+}
+```
+
+### Best Practices
+
+1. **One Test, One Feature**: Each test should focus on a single feature or edge case
+2. **Clear Naming**: Use descriptive test file names (e.g., `upward-call-with-gateway.c`)
+3. **Comment Test Intent**: Add `// Test description:` at the top
+4. **Check All Output**: Verify both positive and negative cases
+5. **Use FileCheck Patterns**: Make checks robust with regex where needed

+# DSMIL Tools
+
+This directory contains user-facing toolchain wrappers and utilities for DSLLVM.
+
+## Tools
+
+### Compiler Wrappers
+
+#### `dsmil-clang` / `dsmil-clang++`
+Thin wrappers around Clang that automatically configure DSMIL target and optimization flags.
+
+**Default Configuration**:
+- Target: `x86_64-dsmil-meteorlake-elf`
+- CPU: `meteorlake`
+- Features: AVX2, AVX-VNNI, AES, VAES, SHA, GFNI, BMI1/2, FMA
+- Optimization: `-O3 -flto=auto -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections`
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# Basic compilation
+dsmil-clang -o output input.c
+
+# With DSMIL attributes
+dsmil-clang -I/opt/dsmil/include -o output input.c
+
+# Production pipeline
+dsmil-clang -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-default -o output input.c
+
+# Debug build
+dsmil-clang -O2 -g -fpass-pipeline=dsmil-debug -o output input.c
+```
+
+#### `dsmil-llc`
+Wrapper around `llc` configured for DSMIL target.
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+dsmil-llc input.ll -o output.s
+```
+
+#### `dsmil-opt`
+Wrapper around `opt` with DSMIL pass plugin loaded and pipeline presets available.
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# Run DSMIL default pipeline
+dsmil-opt -passes=dsmil-default input.ll -o output.ll
+
+# Run specific passes
+dsmil-opt -passes=dsmil-bandwidth-estimate,dsmil-layer-check input.ll -o output.ll
+```
+
+### Verification & Analysis
+
+#### `dsmil-verify`
+Comprehensive provenance verification and policy checking tool.
+
+**Features**:
+- Extract and verify CNSA 2.0 provenance signatures
+- Validate certificate chains
+- Check binary integrity (SHA-384 hashes)
+- Verify DSMIL layer/device/stage policies
+- Generate human-readable and JSON reports
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# Basic verification
+dsmil-verify /usr/bin/llm_worker
+
+# Verbose output
+dsmil-verify --verbose /usr/bin/llm_worker
+
+# JSON report
+dsmil-verify --json /usr/bin/llm_worker > report.json
+
+# Batch verification
+find /opt/dsmil/bin -type f -exec dsmil-verify --quiet {} \;
+
+# Check specific policies
+dsmil-verify --check-layer --check-stage --check-sandbox /usr/bin/llm_worker
+```
+
+**Exit Codes**:
+- `0`: Verification successful
+- `1`: Provenance missing or invalid
+- `2`: Policy violation
+- `3`: Binary tampered (hash mismatch)
+
+### Key Management
+
+#### `dsmil-keygen`
+Generate and manage CNSA 2.0 cryptographic keys.
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# Generate Root Trust Anchor (ML-DSA-87)
+dsmil-keygen --type rta --output rta_key.pem
+
+# Generate Project Signing Key
+dsmil-keygen --type psk --project SWORDIntel/DSMIL \
+ --ca prk_key.pem --output psk_key.pem
+
+# Generate Runtime Decryption Key (ML-KEM-1024)
+dsmil-keygen --type rdk --algorithm ML-KEM-1024 \
+ --output rdk_key.pem
+```
+
+#### `dsmil-truststore`
+Manage runtime trust store for provenance verification.
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# Add new PSK to trust store
+sudo dsmil-truststore add psk_2025.pem
+
+# List trusted keys
+dsmil-truststore list
+
+# Revoke key
+sudo dsmil-truststore revoke PSK-2024-SWORDIntel-DSMIL
+
+# Publish CRL
+sudo dsmil-truststore publish-crl --output /var/dsmil/revocation.crl
+```
+
+### Sidecar Analysis
+
+#### `dsmil-map-viewer`
+View and analyze `.dsmilmap` sidecar files.
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# View placement recommendations
+dsmil-map-viewer /usr/bin/llm_worker.dsmilmap
+
+# Export to JSON
+dsmil-map-viewer --json /usr/bin/llm_worker.dsmilmap
+
+# Filter by layer/device
+dsmil-map-viewer --layer 7 --device 47 /usr/bin/llm_worker.dsmilmap
+```
+
+#### `dsmil-quantum-viewer`
+View and analyze `.quantum.json` files for Device 46 integration.
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# View QUBO problems
+dsmil-quantum-viewer /usr/bin/scheduler.quantum.json
