NAME
    Data::BitSet::Shared - Shared-memory fixed-size bitset for Linux

SYNOPSIS
        use Data::BitSet::Shared;

        my $bs = Data::BitSet::Shared->new(undef, 256);
        $bs->set(10);
        $bs->set(42);
        say $bs->test(10);        # 1
        say $bs->test(11);        # 0
        say $bs->count;           # 2
        $bs->toggle(10);          # returns 0 (new value)
        $bs->clear(42);

        say $bs->first_set;       # undef (all clear now)
        $bs->fill;                # set all 256 bits
        say $bs->count;           # 256

        $bs->zero;                # clear all
        $bs->set(0); $bs->set(2); $bs->set(4);
        say "$bs";                # "10101000..." (stringification)
        my @bits = $bs->set_bits; # (0, 2, 4)

DESCRIPTION
    Fixed-size bitset in shared memory. CAS-based atomic per-bit operations
    on uint64_t words. Lock-free set/clear/test/toggle with hardware
    popcount.

    Useful for shared flags, membership tracking, bloom filter backing,
    resource allocation bitmaps.

    Linux-only. Requires 64-bit Perl.

METHODS
  Constructors
        my $bs = Data::BitSet::Shared->new($path, $capacity);    # file-backed
        my $bs = Data::BitSet::Shared->new(undef, $capacity);    # anonymous (fork-inherited)
        my $bs = Data::BitSet::Shared->new_memfd($name, $cap);   # memfd (fd-passable)
        my $bs = Data::BitSet::Shared->new_from_fd($fd);         # attach to existing fd

  Bit Operations
        my $old = $bs->set($bit);     # set to 1, returns old value
        my $old = $bs->clear($bit);   # set to 0, returns old value
        my $val = $bs->test($bit);    # read (0 or 1)
        my $new = $bs->toggle($bit);  # flip, returns new value

    All bit operations are atomic (CAS-based, lock-free).

  Queries
        $bs->count;          # popcount (total set bits)
        $bs->capacity;       # total bits
        $bs->any;            # true if any bit set
        $bs->none;           # true if no bits set
        $bs->first_set;      # index of first 1, or undef
        $bs->first_clear;    # index of first 0, or undef
        my @bits = $bs->set_bits;  # list of all set bit indices

  Bulk
        $bs->fill;           # set all bits to 1
        $bs->zero;           # set all bits to 0

    Not safe to call concurrently with per-bit operations — these store full
    64-bit words, which can race with CAS-based set/clear/toggle on any bit
    in the same word.

  Stringification
        say "$bs";           # "01001..." (overloaded)
        my $s = $bs->to_string;

  Common
        my $p  = $bs->path;       # backing file path (undef if anon/memfd)
        my $fd = $bs->memfd;      # memfd fd (-1 if file-backed/anon)
        $bs->sync;                # msync to disk
        $bs->unlink;              # remove backing file
        Class->unlink($path);     # class method form
        my $s  = $bs->stats;      # diagnostic hashref

BENCHMARKS
    Single-process (1M ops, x86_64 Linux, Perl 5.40, 64K-bit set):

        set             10.5M/s
        test            10.3M/s
        toggle          10.5M/s
        first_set       13.8M/s
        count (64K pop)  0.5M/s

STATS
    stats() returns a hashref with keys: "capacity", "count", "sets",
    "clears", "toggles", "mmap_size".

SECURITY
    The mmap region is writable by all processes that open it. Do not share
    backing files with untrusted processes.
