Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR can still issue a counter notification after a region has been poisoned, released, or expired, potentially mutating invalid state and causing incorrect synchronization behavior.

- Add neutral region bindings for import, close, byte copy, counters, leases, and cleanup diagnostics - Move private RegionInstance access through W4 payload/counter facades - Route worker-chip compatibility helpers through the neutral backend with UT coverage
- Add neutral byte-copy lease coverage for mapped-region native copies - Select RegionInstance HOST_VMM_COPY access through W2 part attachments - Reject mismatched materialized part attachments before adopting access
Worker-chip mapped-region compatibility bindings now route through the neutral W4 mapped-region backend, so the old C++ implementation center is no longer needed after onboard validation. Add a regression test that rejects reintroducing the legacy WorkerHostMappedRegion native types.
- Route worker-chip counter operations through the facade poison guard while keeping wait timeouts non-poisoning.\n- Share mapped-region import acquisition between neutral and worker-host compatibility bindings.\n- Remove redundant provider root checks from region shape validation.\n- Add regression coverage for counter helper failures poisoning only the region.

Summary
This PR completes the W4 private region sync/access refactor by moving the
native mapped-region access center out of the worker-chip-specific backend and
onto a neutral W4 mapped-region backend.
The public/private call shape remains unchanged:
region.payload_write(...)region.payload_read(...)region.counter(offset).notify(...)region.counter(offset).test(...)region.counter(offset).wait(...)region.close()Worker-chip names remain only as compatibility surface. The new implementation
center is neutral:
RegionMapping,RegionRegistry,RegionLease, andRegionHandle, exposed through_region_*bindings and reused by theworker-host mapped compatibility bindings.
Design Shape
W4 separates region access into three layers:
RegionInstanceAPI layerPart facade layer
PayloadPartCounterPartRegionCounterThese own payload/counter validation, counter primitive semantics,
NotifyOp/WaitCmp/SignalTestResult, timeout behavior, andworker-chip compatibility poison policy where applicable.
Access execution layer
HostVmmCopyAccess_region_*bindingsThis layer owns byte movement and native resource safety, not payload or
counter semantics.
Native Backend Refactor
The native mapped-region implementation is now centered on neutral types in
python/bindings/task_interface.cpp:RegionMappingRegionRegistryRegionLeaseRegionHandleThe neutral
_region_*binding surface calls this backend directly:_region_import_sim_region_import_onboard_region_close_host_vmm_copy_to_host_vmm_copy_from_region_counter_notify_region_counter_test_region_counter_waitThe old worker-host mapped binding names remain for compatibility, but now use
the same neutral registry, lease, cleanup diagnostics, copy helpers, and counter
helpers. The duplicate worker-chip native backend state has been removed.
The import paths for neutral and worker-host compatibility bindings now share
the same sim/onboard acquisition helpers, so future native resource cleanup
changes cannot drift between the two surfaces.
Python Region Access
RegionInstancenow routes through explicit part slots:_payload_part: PayloadPart_counter_part: CounterPartPayloadPartowns payload range checks and host buffer pinning beforedelegating byte movement to
HostVmmCopyAccess.CounterPartandRegionCounterown counter offset validation,int32counter semantics, notify/test/wait behavior, and timeout translation. Counter
waits remain finite, and timeout results report the last observed counter value.
HostVmmCopyAccessis selected from the W2RegionPartPlanattachment shape:VMM_WINDOWplusOWNER_DELEGATED_COPY / HOST_VMM_COPY. It does not inferaccess only from materialized mapping metadata.
Worker-Chip Compatibility
WorkerChipOrchRegionis now a W4 compatibility facade over:PayloadPartCounterPartRegionCounterHostVmmCopyAccessThe legacy worker-chip names remain importable/re-exported where existing queue
and orchestration code still depends on them, but they no longer own separate
payload/counter validation or native mapped-region backend state.
This PR also restores the worker-chip facade poison policy for counter helper
failures: native/helper failures poison only the region, while expected counter
wait timeouts remain non-poisoning.
Cleanup
This PR also removes a redundant provider root check in
validate_single_owner_region_shape.parse_endpoint_path(..., root_level=...)already validates the root; the remaining check only needs to ensure the
provider is an indexed L2 child endpoint.
