3Each program's ring of task trace records.

5Part of the mesh contract: the memory, control, snapshot and peer protocols shared by meshd, its GPU
6programs (CUDA kernels, wasm lanes, native workers) and the tools. Every side compiles the same
7definitions, so an offset can never disagree.

15[alpha-rust-mesh](https://github.com/rsafier/alpha-rust-mesh) (Richard Safier, MIT): crates/mesh-abi/src/v2.rs: TRACE_BASE, TRACE_PER_PROG, TRACE_BYTES.

17Names: Rust's `NAME` is `MESH_NAME`; a constant of a Rust module `m` is `MESH_M_NAME` (unless it already starts with `M_`); a function `f` is `mesh_f` (`mesh_m_f`). Offsets that are `usize` in the Rust are plain integer constants or `size_t` results, `u32` constants carry a `u` suffix, `u64` use `UINT64_C`.

19## Device code
20
21The header is freestanding (`<stdint.h>`, `<stddef.h>`, `<stdbool.h>` only): it compiles for the host, `nvptx64-nvidia-cuda` and `wasm32`. Functions the Rust marks `const fn` are `static inline` here.
22
23## Tests
24
25- `tests/constants.c`: every constant against the value the Rust prints (3 checks)
26- `tests/golden.c`: its functions against 48 vectors computed by the Rust on the same inputs
