Línea de trabajo
The issue is about implementing restricted-hash semantics in Hash::Util for both JVM and interpreter backends. Start by examining the existing Hash::Util module code in the PerlOnJava repository, likely in lib/Hash/Util.pm or similar. Review the failing tests in dev/tools/feature-audit/remaining_semantics.t and the CPAN test failures from MooX::Params::CompiledValidators. Understand Perl's native behavior by testing the reproduction script with a standard Perl interpreter. The work involves modifying core hash operations across two backends, so familiarity with the project's internals is essential. Done means the reproduction script behaves like native Perl and the existing audit tests pass.

Descripción
Summary
Implement Perl-compatible restricted-hash semantics for Hash::Util on both the JVM and interpreter backends.
Current behavior
The bundled Hash::Util exposes several restricted-hash APIs, but key-locking is a no-op and the remaining operations are only partially implemented:
lock_keysandunlock_keysare registered but do not change hash behavior.lock_valueandunlock_valueare compatibility no-ops.lock_keys_plusis a no-op.lock_hashprevents some writes, but does not reject reads of missing keys and does not consistently reproduce Perl's restricted-hash diagnostics.- Inspection helpers such as
hash_lockedandhash_unlockedreturn placeholder values.
The feature matrix currently marks restricted hashes unsupported. docs/reference/bundled-modules.md should also be reconciled because it currently lists Hash::Util as providing lock_keys and lock_hash without describing the partial semantics.
Reproduction
use Hash::Util qw(lock_keys lock_hash);
my %keys = (a => 1);
lock_keys(%keys, 'a');
my $added = eval { $keys{b} = 2; 1 };
my $read = eval { my $value = $keys{b}; 1 };
my %hash = (a => 1);
lock_hash(%hash);
my $missing = eval { my $value = $hash{b}; 1 };
Native Perl rejects the disallowed-key operations. PerlOnJava currently allows the lock_keys add/read operations and the lock_hash missing-key read on both backends.
Compatibility evidence
CPAN distribution MooX::Params::CompiledValidators v0.05 failed 3 of 17 tests under PerlOnJava in run 20260922-180448-60378:
t/010-basic.t: restricted-hash access was not rejected.t/020-moose.t: restricted-hash access was not rejected.
Under system Perl, those two test files pass. The third file has an unrelated warning-sensitive Type::Tiny serialization failure.
The smallest direct probe also reproduces the backend gap: native Perl reports Attempt to access disallowed key, while both JVM and interpreter return without an error.
Proposed scope
- Implement key restrictions and enforcement for read, write, delete, and key creation.
- Implement whole-hash and value locking/unlocking with Perl-compatible state transitions.
- Implement
lock_keys_plusand inspection helpers with correct results. - Match Perl's relevant error behavior where practical.
- Add project-owned unit tests covering both backends and validate expected behavior with standard Perl.
- Update the bundled-modules documentation to distinguish implemented APIs from partial/no-op compatibility shims.
References
dev/tools/feature-audit/remaining_semantics.talready records restricted-hash enforcement as failing on both backends.dev/design/feature-audit-plan.mdrecords this as a known unsupported gap.
