leonarski_fandClaude Opus 5 61a7c91b90 Ice: detect it on two channels, and only handle it when it is there
The per-image ice score was read off the PLAIN azimuthal profile. That profile is a
per-ring mean, so a few strong Bragg reflections landing in a ring's q bin lift it
exactly as ice would. Measured over 37 rotation crystals, that did not merely add
noise - it INVERTED the metric: the two highest-scoring crystals had no ice at all
(4.23 and 4.06), while a clean control read 1.57. A decoy null - the identical
statistic evaluated at q positions where hexagonal ice cannot be - reaches 1.51 at its
99th percentile and 2.70 at its maximum, so that metric cannot support any absolute
threshold whatsoever.

The adaptive spot finder already computes the right input for its own threshold: a
sigma-clipped per-resolution-ring background, in the same bins. A powder ring is
azimuthally smooth and survives the clip; Bragg peaks do not. On the clipped profile
the clean population tightens to 1.00-1.22 and the crystals with confirmed ice sit at
2.08-2.37, against a decoy null that never exceeds 1.29.

That channel is blind to one thing: ice in large crystallites diffracts as DISCRETE
spots and leaves the radial profile flat. So a second channel counts found spots on the
rings against the same q width of ice-free flanks beside them. The two barely overlap -
the smooth-ice crystals read 2.1-2.4 / ~1.0 and the textured ones ~1.1 / 3.8-17.6,
while a clean crystal reads 1.04 on both.

Both are then used as a GATE (--ice-min-score 1.5, --ice-min-spot-ratio 2.0, both
calibrated on the battery, 0 disables): the eleven fixed hexagonal bands cover 16-26 %
of the unique reflections at typical resolutions whether or not the crystal has ice, so
flagging, the exclusion from the scale fit and the merge-time CC1/2 ring mask are now
all skipped when neither channel sees any. The gate is applied in the full pipeline and
in --scale, which reads the stored per-image values back out of the _process.h5.

Also fixes the merge-time mask's control: the shoulder now excludes reflections that
are themselves on an ice ring. The rings are not evenly spaced - 1.947/1.916/1.882 A
sit 0.05-0.06 apart in q - so for those three the [w,3w) shoulder landed squarely on
the neighbours and the test compared ice against ice. Measured, that is the only thing
this changes: it removes firings on those three rings and leaves every other firing's
CC pair identical to three decimals.

And the online ice half-width, which was 0.02 in the API against 0.03 offline, so the
same data got a narrower band online than the measured ~0.06 ring FWHM justifies.

Battery (37 rotation crystals, against the previous behaviour): space groups 34/37 in
both and NO crystal's space group changes; 6 crystals gain unique reflections, 1 loses.
Best of them gains 7082 unique reflections with R_meas 16.0 -> 14.3, CC1/2 95.9 -> 97.3
and ISa 13.7 -> 19.0; another goes R_meas 54.9 -> 42.9, CC1/2 84.0 -> 90.4, ISa
3.9 -> 5.5; a third reaches CC1/2 99.4 from 95.7 at an unchanged reflection count. The
one crystal that loses reflections improves on both R_meas and CC1/2.

Not done here: the ScanResult/API/plot-type/frontend/viewer layers for the new
spot_count_ice_control (they need the OpenAPI regeneration). Message, CBOR, HDF5
write/read and the receiver plots are.

leonarski_fandClaude Opus 5 abb94ca450 spot_finding: accumulate the adaptive ring statistics in integers
The per-ring sums were floats reduced by atomics, so the ring sigma - and with it the
detection threshold - depended on the order the blocks happened to arrive in. Detection
compares an INTEGER pixel value against that threshold, so a threshold that drifts
across an integer flips every pixel of that value in the ring at once, which is how a
last-bit difference turned into a different spot list.

A preprocessed pixel is an exact int32 and the masked and saturated sentinels are
skipped, so v and v*v are exact in 64 bits, and integer addition is associative: the
sums no longer care about arrival order. Both engines now accumulate the same way, so
they agree exactly rather than approximately, and the GPU spot list is bit-identical
across runs. The corrected sums that feed the reported azimuthal profile stay float -
a pixel value times a float correction has no exact integer form - but they do not
enter the detection decision.

Cost: the ring reduction needs 28 bytes per bin instead of 20 in the plain pass, which
drops it from eight co-resident blocks per SM to seven and costs about 11% of that
kernel (0.582 -> 0.650 ms/frame on a 4.5 Mpx frame). End to end it does not show:
alternating runs on three rotation crystals came out the same or slightly faster, and
the battery is unchanged in every number. The CPU engine got 30% faster (32.2 -> 22.6
ms/frame), integers being cheaper than doubles.

Tests: exact CPU/GPU agreement on the spot list, and 50 repeats of bit-identical output
where there were four.

leonarski_fandClaude Opus 5 59702b0123 spot_finding: give the ring reduction eight blocks per SM instead of four
reduce_rings_shared is the largest kernel in the per-image loop - 73% of GPU
kernel time on an 18 Mpx rotation run, launched three times per image - and it
is bound by shared-memory atomic replay rather than by bandwidth: it reaches
156 GB/s against a measured 913 GB/s ceiling, and removing the atomics while
keeping the same loads makes it five times faster.

That is the case that wants resident warps to hide the serialisation, and four
blocks per SM left only 512 of the 1536 threads an SM can hold. The per-block
histogram is nbins * 20 B, about 9.6 kB at the default 0.01 1/A spacing, so
eight blocks fit in shared memory with room to spare. Both kernels are
grid-stride loops, so any grid is correct and a device that cannot co-schedule
eight simply queues the rest.

Measured: 9.21 s -> 5.33 s of kernel time over a run (852 -> 493 us per
launch), cutting total kernel time from 12.57 s to about 8.85 s.

flag_strong keeps four. It is bandwidth-shaped rather than atomic-bound and
eight measured no better (181 vs 175 us).

Wall clock is unchanged, and that is expected rather than disappointing:
kernels are 39% of the image loop while the host-to-device copy is 78%, so
faster kernels idle the GPU more without shortening the loop. This is
groundwork for the transfer work, not a speedup on its own.

The shared accumulators are float and summed with atomics, so the block count
changes the summation order and with it the last bits. The 37-crystal battery
is identical crystal for crystal except one observation in 925850 on a single
dataset.

The spot finder flagged strong pixels on the device and then labelled them on the
host, so every frame sent the packed bitmask back - 2.26 MB on a large detector -
and the host walked all of it to recover a few hundred pixels. Do the labelling on
the device instead: compact the bitmask into a flat-index-sorted list, find each
pixel's backward neighbours by binary search, union them lock-free with path
halving, then label, accumulate and filter in one kernel. Only the spot list comes
back, and only one stream synchronisation per frame.

The gain in the ordinary case is modest - about a quarter off per-image spot
finding - because the host algorithm is genuinely fast on a normal frame. What
justifies it is the frame that is not ordinary. The host labels a sorted sparse
list through a window spanning two detector lines, so its cost is quadratic in how
many strong pixels share a line. A lit band of detector rows - a hot module, a
panel edge - costs 33 ms at two rows and 377 ms at fifteen, all of it under the
pixel cap that was supposed to bound this, and none of it maskable when the cause
is a diffraction ring rather than a defect: a ring runs tangent to a row at its
top and bottom, which is exactly the shape that hurts. The device version is flat
at 0.05 to 0.64 ms across every geometry tried, so an online run no longer stalls
a quarter of a second on an ice ring. Rejecting an over-cap frame is now free too,
since the count is known before any pixel is written.

Also label once and filter three times. The per-image minimum-pixel search runs the
extraction at three settings, but that setting only decides which components are
kept - it does not change the components - so the search itself need not be
repeated. This helps the host path as much as the device one.

The resolution mask moves to the device as a bit mask, uploaded when the limits
change rather than per frame, since the compaction needs it there.

Parity is asserted permanently rather than argued: five cases covering realistic
frames, occupancy from a hundred pixels to past the cap, the pathological
geometries including rings, the resolution mask, and a hundred-repeat determinism
check - requiring the same partition, the same spot order, and identical counts.
The centroid is a float sum and therefore order-dependent, so the device walks each
component from its root in ascending order and fuses its multiply-add the way the
host's does; note that whether the host fuses at all depends on the architecture
flags, so exact centroid equality is asserted where the compiler fuses and a
two-ulp bound otherwise. Making those accumulators integer would remove that
dependence entirely and is worth doing separately.

Regression set: all 37 crystals identical to the last printed digit. Unit suite
passes with the new cases.

One analysis engine is built per worker thread, and each uploaded its own copy of
tables that are pure functions of the detector geometry: the pixel -> azimuthal bin
map and the per-pixel corrections (both in AzIntEngineGPU AND again in
AdaptiveSpotFinderGPU, from the same mapping), plus the pixel mask. On an 18 Mpx
detector that is ~224 MB per worker; with 32 workers ~7 GB of device memory held 32
identical copies.

Upload each table once per GPU instead and hand every engine on that device a shared
pointer to it. The cache is keyed by (device, source-vector address) because workers
are pinned round-robin across GPUs, so on a multi-GPU node each device keeps its own
copy - a kernel may only read memory resident on the device it runs on - and the
table is freed on the device that allocated it. Entries are held weakly, so a table
goes away with the last engine using it.

Measured on an 18 Mpx detector, 32 worker threads, 16 GB card: the stills path went
from exhausting the card (OOM in de-novo indexing) to 8.6 GB peak, and a normal
rotation run from 14.6 GB to 7.4 GB - it had been running within 1.6 GB of the limit,
so any larger detector or second GPU consumer would have tipped it over. Per-worker
footprint drops 403 -> 173 MB. Merge statistics are unchanged on a six-crystal
regression subset, including two-pass runs where the second pass rebuilds the mapping
on refined geometry, and wall time is unchanged (13.5-13.8 s vs 13.8-14.1 s).

Also take the launch configuration from the current device rather than device 0 in
AzIntEngineGPU and ImagePreprocessorGPU: with round-robin pinning, device 0's SM count
and shared-memory size can belong to a different card than the one the kernels use.

leonarski_fandClaude Opus 5 bf866a0d4c CUDA: the engines' setup copies belong on the engine's stream
Making the worker streams non-blocking removed the implicit ordering that the
constructors were still relying on. Each engine uploads its static inputs - the
pixel mask, the pixel-to-bin map, the corrections, the ROI map - with a blocking
NULL-stream cudaMemcpy, and then reads them from kernels on its own stream. A
pageable host-to-device cudaMemcpy returns once the source has been staged, with
the DMA still in flight, and a non-blocking stream no longer waits for the NULL
stream. The failure mode is a silently unapplied mask or a stale mapping, not a
crash, so it would not have announced itself.

Put them on the stream the engine already owns, and synchronise once at the end of
the constructor - that is required for the preprocessor, whose source is a local
vector, and leaves the others settled rather than in flight for the cost of one
one-time sync. The GPU spot-finder test uploaded its image the same way.

leonarski_fandClaude Opus 5 04450eb618 Adaptive spot finder: sum the rings across blocks in double
The ring sigma is the cancelling difference sum2/n - m^2, and both sums were
float accumulated by atomics whose order is arbitrary. Two costs: the
cancellation left only ~4 digits in the variance, and the ordering moved the
resulting threshold by ~0.05 counts between runs - enough to flip a pixel
sitting on the hard "value >= threshold" test, and with it a connected
component's size. So the GPU engine did not reproduce the CPU one and did not
reproduce itself.

Only the accumulators that span blocks are widened. The per-block staging stays
float, because a block contributes a few dozen similar-magnitude pixels to a
ring and there is nothing to lose there - that also keeps the shared-memory
footprint of the hot loop, and hence its occupancy, exactly as it was: measured
on a 4.5 MP frame, 0.960 vs 0.966 ms/frame (40.9x over the CPU path, unchanged).
finalize_rings now does the cancellation in double and rounds to float last,
which is what AdaptiveSpotFinderCPU::AccumulateRings does.

The device properties are also read from the current device rather than device
0; callers round-robin engines across GPUs.

leonarski_fandClaude Opus 5 16bf3408f0 Address code-review findings; make detection limits detector-driven
One changeset, developed together in response to a review of this branch, so the
files carry several of the changes at once. Full test suite passes (733 cases).

Spot finding
- Split ImageSpotFinder into Detect() (flag strong pixels - the expensive
  per-pixel pass) and ExtractSpots() (CCL + min/max-pix + resolution mask), with
  Run() = both. The per-image min-pix escalation now detects ONCE and repeats
  only the cheap extraction, instead of re-running the whole finder four times
  per frame as it did on the default path. It also keeps the winning attempt's
  spot list rather than re-extracting it, so the frame that is integrated is
  exactly the frame that was scored - which a GPU re-extract could not guarantee
  (float atomic ordering).
- spot_finding_time_s no longer swallows indexing time, and indexing_time_s now
  sums every escalation call instead of reporting only the last.

Detection limits follow the detector
- The azimuthal-integration upper q and the spot-finding high-resolution limit
  are now std::optional, in the C++ structs AND in the OpenAPI schema, and
  resolve to the detector's own maximum (DiffractionExperiment::GetDetectorMaxQ_
  recipA). Adaptive detection reads a pixel's ring from the azimuthal bins, so a
  pixel outside that q range could never be strong - the integration range
  silently bounded what detection could see, regardless of the requested
  resolution limit. Regenerated the C++ and TypeScript clients; the viewer and
  the web frontend each gained a "to detector edge" switch.

Detection defaults are now per workflow (measured, not assumed)
- Stills: adaptive detection, min-pix chosen per image, no resolution clipping.
- Rotation: fixed-threshold finder, min-pix 2, 1.5 A limit.
  On a 33-crystal rotation battery, adaptive detection helped four hard crystals
  but deterministically broke three (a lost space group, a halved indexing rate,
  a collapsed merge), and the detector-edge limit cost indexing on a strong
  rotation set (100.0 -> 96.8%). Each is still overridable by its flag, and
  --no-adaptive-spots is new.

Indexer seed escalation
- Stop escalating once a seed's lattice explains >= 90% of the seed spots.
  Previously any frame with >= 80 spots always paid three indexer calls, online
  broker included.

Merge-consistency filter
- --min-image-cc gated on a per-image CC computed BEFORE the stills partiality
  post-refinement and never refreshed; the refiner now recomputes it, so the
  reported CC describes the data that are actually merged.
- Replaced the per-call cc_mask argument with one MergeOnTheFly flag, so the
  merge, the error model and MergeStats can no longer disagree about which
  images are in (the --scale path merged unfiltered while its statistics were
  filtered).

Per-image B-factor refinement (-B) removed
- Measured on four serial-stills datasets: it is a no-op where the per-image fit
  is well conditioned and actively harmful where it is not (CC1/2 -8.1, R_meas
  +23.2 on the weakest large-cell set, whose fits hit their [-50, 200] bounds on
  14-25% of images). It had also been silently DISCARDED since the partiality
  post-refinement landed - reported but not applied. Rather than fix and keep a
  knob with no demonstrated benefit, the flag and the whole image_scale_b_factor
  chain are gone: setting, scaling fit, message field, CBOR, HDF5 write and
  read-back, per-image plot, OpenAPI enum, viewer column and checkbox, docs.
  ScaleOnTheFly no longer needs Ceres at all - the fit is a linear IRLS.
  (The Wilson per-image b_factor is a different quantity and stays.)

Stills partiality width now fits both of its components
- sigma^2 = gamma0^2 + (gamma_e*d*)^2 instead of a purely angular gamma_e*d*
  with gamma0 pinned to 0. Fitted per crystal by least squares of dist_ewald^2
  on d*^2. The angular-only width is fitted over a d*^2-dense population, so it
  was pinned by the high-resolution edge and collapsed at low d*: median
  partiality 0.008 beyond 13 A for reflections that were plainly recorded, 55%
  of them under the merge's partiality floor, and the survivors divided by those
  values - which inflated the merged low-resolution intensity scale 3.6x
  (~ +9 A^2 of apparent B). Measured on 5000 stills: the ramp flattens to 0.89x,
  no observation is dropped any more (701750 -> 716811), shell-mean CC1/2 and
  R-free improve slightly. Note CC1/2, R_meas, completeness and a B-refining
  R-free are all blind to that ramp, which is why it survived earlier validation;
  the cost is high-resolution R_meas (98.5 -> 101.9 shell-averaged).

Removed dead code from add-then-remove churn
- Prediction-time "still partiality" (unreachable: no setter), the phantom
  IndexingSettings::min_indexed_spot_fraction knob (getter, no setter - now the
  constant it always was), StillsPartialityRefine's caller-less Settings
  constructor and its reference to a long-gone env var, ProcessImage's unread
  bool return, an unused include, and a dead viewer overlay hook.

Also
- Viewer: the magnifier compared a QImage with itself, so its scene rect was set
  once ever and it could not pan into a larger dataset; the hover tail timer
  could fire after leaveEvent and resurrect the resolution readout outside the
  image.
- update_version.sh regenerated the frontend lock file BEFORE bumping the
  version (every release shipped an off-by-one lock), and did git rm/git add on
  a path that has not existed since the client moved to src/client - with no
  set -e, both failed silently.
- fpga/pcie_driver/postinstall.sh tested "[ ! occurrences > 0 ]", which is a
  redirect, not a test, so dkms add never ran.
- Unit tests for the adaptive-threshold host functions, which had none.

leonarski_fandClaude Opus 4.8 9fdeed282a Add fused GPU adaptive spot finder (azint + spot finding in one pass)
AdaptiveSpotFinderGPU does the per-resolution-ring reduction once on the GPU and
drives both products from it: the azimuthal-integration profile (corrected space)
and the self-calibrating adaptive spot-detection threshold (raw counts). This
replaces the separate GPU azint pass and the host-side adaptive spot finder that
runs on the GPU path today. On a ~4.5 MP detector it does both jobs in ~1 ms/frame
versus ~40 ms for the CPU adaptive finder (~42x), with an identical spot list and
azimuthal profile.

The per-ring threshold math (Poisson tail + read-floored Gaussian, operating point
from the false-pixels-per-frame knob) is factored into AdaptiveThreshold.h so the
CPU and GPU finders share one source of truth and cannot drift.

Wired opt-in via a MXAnalysisWithoutFPGA constructor flag, default on for the rugnux
offline path and the interactive viewer, off for the online receiver (so the broker
path is unchanged). When on, Analyze() skips the separate azint pass and lifts the
profile from the fused engine. The viewer gains an "Adaptive threshold" checkbox that
greys out the signal/noise and photon-count sliders (the adaptive finder uses neither).

Dedicated tests exercise both products (spot-finding parity vs the CPU finder,
azimuthal profile vs a standalone GPU azint) plus a speed benchmark. Validated
end-to-end on lysozyme serial stills: fused == CPU-adaptive index rate and merge stats.

Docs: new section 3.2 in docs/CPU_DATA_ANALYSIS.md.
