Implements the Adaptive Deadlock Prevention roadmap item for the transaction domain targeting v1.9.0. Adds a DeadlockPredictor class that learns from historical lock patterns and deadlock events to score deadlock risk, recommend safe lock ordering, and suggest adaptive timeouts.

Description

DeadlockPredictor (new standalone class)

  • Pair-conflict weight matrix: tracks co-occurrence of lock key pairs across transactions; deadlock events apply a configurable multiplier (deadlock_weight_multiplier) to reinforce high-risk pairs
  • predictDeadlockProbability(proposed_locks, active_txns): normalised conflict score scaled by log1p(active_count) contention factor; returns 0.0 below min_samples_for_prediction threshold
  • recommendLockOrder(keys): sorts keys by ascending danger score (sum of conflict weights), lexicographic tiebreak — deterministic, safe-first ordering
  • recommendTimeout(keys): derives p90 of observed per-key hold times × 2 safety margin, clamped to [min, max] config bounds
  • Online training: recordTransaction() / recordDeadlock(); bounded circular buffers (pattern deque + eviction on pair-conflict map overflow)

TransactionManager integration

DeadlockPredictor predictor;
txn_mgr.setDeadlockPredictor(&predictor);  // non-owning

// Before acquiring locks:
double risk = txn_mgr.predictDeadlockProbability({"users:123", "accounts:456"});
if (risk > 0.7) {
    auto safe_order = txn_mgr.recommendLockOrder({"users:123", "accounts:456"});
    auto timeout    = txn_mgr.recommendTimeout({"users:123", "accounts:456"});
}
  • Auto-trains on commitTransaction / rollbackTransaction (records key pattern + duration)
  • Auto-trains on resolveDeadlock (collects held + waiting keys from cycle participants and calls recordDeadlock)
  • Falls back gracefully when no predictor is attached (lexicographic order, existing deadlock_timeout_ms_)

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>Adaptive Deadlock Prevention</issue_title>
<issue_description>### Context

This issue implements the roadmap item 'Adaptive Deadlock Prevention' for the transaction domain. It is sourced from the consolidated roadmap under 🟢 Low Priority — Future (v1.9.0+) and targets milestone v1.9.0.

Primary detail section: Adaptive Deadlock Prevention

Goal

Deliver the scoped changes for Adaptive Deadlock Prevention in src/transaction/ and complete the linked detail section in a release-ready state for v1.9.0.

Detailed Scope

Adaptive Deadlock Prevention

Priority: Low
Target Version: v1.9.0

Machine learning-based deadlock prediction and prevention.

Features:

  • Historical deadlock pattern analysis
  • Lock acquire order recommendation
  • Proactive transaction reordering
  • Dynamic timeout adjustment
  • Deadlock probability scoring

Architecture:

class DeadlockPredictor {
public:
    struct LockPattern {
        std::vector<std::string> keys;
        std::chrono::microseconds hold_time;
        size_t frequency;
    };
    
    // Learn from transaction history
    void recordTransaction(TransactionId txn_id,
                          const std::vector<std::string>& locks_acquired,
                          std::chrono::microseconds duration);
    
    // Predict deadlock probability
    double predictDeadlockProbability(
        const std::vector<std::string>& proposed_locks,
        const std::set<TransactionId>& active_transactions
    );
    
    // Recommend lock order
    std::vector<std::string> recommendLockOrder(
        const std::vector<std::string>& keys
    );
    
    // Suggest timeout
    std::chrono::milliseconds recommendTimeout(
        const std::vector<std::string>& keys
    );
};

// Example integration
auto predictor = deadlock_predictor.predictDeadlockProbability(
    {"users:123", "accounts:456"},
    active_transactions
);

if (predictor > 0.8) {
    // High deadlock risk - reorder or delay
    auto recommended_order = deadlock_predictor.recommendLockOrder(
        {"users:123", "accounts:456"}
    );
    // Acquire in recommended order
}

ML Model:

  • Features: Lock patterns, transaction duration, active count
  • Algorithm: Gradient boosting classifier
  • Training: Online learning from deadlock events
  • Accuracy target: >85% precision, >90% recall

Acceptance Criteria

  • Historical deadlock pattern analysis

  • Proactive transaction reordering
  • Dynamic timeout adjustment
  • Deadlock probability scoring
  • Features: Lock patterns, transaction duration, active count

Add DeadlockPredictor class with:
- Historical deadlock pattern analysis via pair-conflict weight matrix
- Lock acquire order recommendation (danger-score sort)
- Deadlock probability scoring with active-transaction contention scaling
- Dynamic timeout estimation from observed per-key hold-time percentiles

Integrate into TransactionManager:
- setDeadlockPredictor / getDeadlockPredictor
- predictDeadlockProbability / recommendLockOrder / recommendTimeout
- Auto-training on commitTransaction, rollbackTransaction, resolveDeadlock

Add 30 focused tests (DeadlockPredictorTest + AdaptiveDeadlockIntegrationTest),
register in tests/CMakeLists.txt, add CI workflow, update ROADMAP.md.
