- u_async.c: process immediate_queue BEFORE epoll_wait in uasync_poll
- stcp_link.c: defensive NULL etcp_conn/etcp_link in stcp_link_close
- utun_instance.c: move stcp_server_list_destroy_all to Phase J (before ETCP),
add deferred drain in both Phase J and L
- stcp.h/c: STCP_HS_ENC_CLIENT 6→38, STCP_HS_ENC_SERVER 7→39,
exchange ed25519_pubkey in both handshake directions
- etcp_connections.c: copy peer_ed25519 from STCP to ETCP_CONN in
etcp_link_enter_ready_tcp; guard link->etcp in tcp_link_close_cb
- chat_sync.c: fix lk->conn NULL dereference for TCP links
- test_stcp.c: update stcp_server_create/stcp_client_connect callsites
- tools/chat_tcp_test: change transport udp→tcp
Root cause: Use-after-free bug due to stale pointers after realloc()
- Socket array growth via realloc() moved memory to new location
- Test stored old pointers that became invalid after memory move
- Caused memory corruption and socket counting failures
Solution: Modified test to avoid storing stale pointers
- Store file descriptors instead of raw pointers
- Use lookup approach to get current pointers during removal
- Eliminates use-after-free issue entirely
Results: All uasync tests now pass without memory leaks
- test_u_async_performance: 25/25 sockets (was failing before)
- No more socket counting mismatches or corruption
- Clean memory stats and proper cleanup
- Fixed incorrect init_connections() call in test_etcp_simple_traffic.c (was calling server_instance instead of client_instance)
- Fixed double free in timeout_heap_pop() when handling deleted elements
- Enhanced NULL pointer safety in uasync_print_resources() by removing complex heap manipulation
- Added debug logging to timeout_heap_pop() for better error tracking
Test results: test_etcp_simple_traffic now passes without double free errors
