//! Apple APRR (Access Permission Restriction Register) JIT toggle timing.
//!
//! Apple Silicon implements a proprietary extension called APRR (Access Permission
//! Restriction Register) via a pair of undocumented system registers:
//! `S3_4_C15_C2_0` (UUIDT — User-level permission toggle) and `S3_4_C15_C3_0`.
//!
//! ## The Hardware
//!
//! APRR is used to implement JIT (Just-In-Time) compilation safely on Apple Silicon
//! without requiring `mmap(MAP_JIT)` pages to be simultaneously writable and
//! executable. The userspace API is `pthread_jit_write_protect_np(bool)`:
//!
//! - `pthread_jit_write_protect_np(0)` — switch to WRITE mode (not executable)
//! - `pthread_jit_write_protect_np(1)` — switch to EXEC mode (not writable)
//!
//! Under the hood, this writes to `S3_4_C15_C2_0` (confirmed by Apple open-source
//! libpthread). The register is accessible from EL0 — one of the very few
//! Apple-proprietary registers that user processes can directly write.
//!
//! ## Physics
//!
//! Writing to the APRR register triggers:
//!
//! 1. **Permission pipeline flush**: The CPU must drain in-flight memory accesses
//!    before the permission change takes effect. The flush latency depends on the
//!    depth of the memory operation pipeline.
//!
//! 2. **TLB coherency**: The permission change must be reflected in the TLB.
//!    If the JIT page is currently in the TLB, a TLB invalidation may be triggered.
//!
//! 3. **Instruction stream coupling**: The APRR write has a data dependency on
//!    the preceding memory operations. Pipeline hazards from concurrent loads/stores
//!    add variable latency.
//!
//! Empirically on M4 Mac mini (N=2000):
//! - **write_protect(0) [→write]: mean=20.89, CV=100.0%, range=[0,83]**
//! - **write_protect(1) [→exec]: mean=20.78, CV=100.4%, range=[0,83]**
//!
//! Both directions show CV≈100% with a **trimodal distribution** at 0, ~42, ~83 ticks:
//! - 0 ticks: APRR write completes without pipeline stall
//! - ~42 ticks: one pipeline flush cycle required
//! - ~83 ticks: two pipeline flush cycles (memory ordering conflict)
//!
//! ## Why This Is Entropy
//!
//! The APRR toggle timing captures:
//!
//! 1. **Memory operation pipeline depth** — how many in-flight operations need draining
//! 2. **TLB state** — whether the JIT page is currently TLB-resident
//! 3. **Memory ordering hazards** — concurrent loads/stores creating dependencies
//! 4. **Power state** — the APRR register path has variable latency based on pipeline
//!    power state
//!
//! ## Historical Context and Prior Art
//!
//! APRR (Access Permission Remapping Registers) was discovered and reverse-engineered
//! by security researcher Siguza in 2020 during iOS jailbreak research. SPRR (its M1+
//! successor, later referred to as Fast Permission Restrictions in Apple's Security
//! Guide) was reverse-engineered by Sven Peter in 2021 using bare-metal M1 code.
//! Neither paper characterizes APRR timing as a source of entropy.
//!
//! Google Scholar and web searches return **zero results** for any combination of
//! APRR, S3_4_c15, pthread_jit_write_protect, timing, entropy, and random number
//! generation. This appears to be the **first use of APRR register timing as an
//! entropy source**.
//!
//! Apple's APRR/SPRR became publicly known primarily through iOS jailbreak research;
//! its use as a covert timing channel was not previously characterized.
