Make forceSingleInstance share one helper process across workers, clean up shared and per-worker child state on teardown, and bound helper replies by the existing maxMessageSize setting while removing the realloc NULL-deref path. Add focused mmexternal regressions for shared single-instance behavior and oversized helper replies, and record the module locking model in the AI module map.

RAG Knowledge Base
The documentation build generates a machine-readable RAG dataset at
build/rag/rsyslog_rag_db.json. This is produced by ../build_rag_db.py
and contains ~12,000 structured chunks for AI retrieval pipelines.
Regenerate with: make -C doc json-formatter
See chunking_and_embeddings.md for schema details.
Current canonical terms
- Log pipeline (internally also called message pipeline).
- Use
getting_started/beginner_tutorials/(nolearning_path/).
