bug-1433: raft_cb_become_leader runs synchronously off peer_ctrl_dispatch_to_pool,
which hardcodes VTASK_LIVENESS for every inbound peer-control packet including
vote replies. The bug-1431 round-2 fix (flusher_flush_once force-flush in
persist_promotion_advance_committed) was reachable from that never-blocks task
class -- same bug family as bug-1198. Removed the force-flush; round-3
(durable-capped only) plus the already-shipped bug-1432 immediate-first-heartbeat
fix close the visibility-latency gap non-blockingly. TRACKED RESIDUAL:
persist_apply_pump_run_sync is still reachable on the same VTASK_LIVENESS path
and does bounded pread() -- lower risk (page-cache-hot) but strictly still
blocking I/O; not safe to remove outright (reopens bug-1043-family job loss),
needs its own follow-up (reclassify peer_ctrl_classify's winning-vote-reply case
or dispatch promotion tail onto a fresh VTASK_LIVE_BLOCK vtask).
bug-1434: persist_promotion_advance_committed and ha_standby_advance_committed_and_apply
raced on persist_t.committed_lsn via an unlocked load-then-conditional-store during
the promotion window (before ha->role flips to CTRL_PRIMARY) -- a losing racer could
regress committed_lsn. Added persist_committed_lsn_advance_atomic (CAS retry loop,
lock-free) and routed both call sites through it.
Validated: 19/19 unit test suites, 6-round chaotic soak (0 loss/divergence) + 6-round
sequential+leadership-coverage soak, both PASS. Also folds in raft-apply-decoupling
and raft-ha-core-safety validate-impl phase bumps to "implemented" and clears
config-upgrade-snapshot's now-satisfied entity-bearing-snapshots block.
Closes the two non-blocking follow-ups from the 2026-07-07 validate-impl
audit:
- design.md had 3 sections describing the original plan rather than what
landed, each already self-disclosed in tasks.md's Implementation Notes
but never reconciled back: repl.c's planned repl_submit_majority_commit()
was never built (task 3.2 calls commit_submit_async() directly instead);
the apply pump is wired via commit_resolve_pending() in commit.c, not
ha.c's on_commit_advanced; fact hooks fire one generic
HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE, not per-type hooks (verified safe -- sched.c's
subscribers already consume the generic form).
- task 5.3 touched ha.c (two promotion/fence call sites) without a formal
_Boundary:_ exception the way task 1.4 got one for its own out-of-file
touch -- added retroactively, no behavior change.
Measured sustained worker-fact throughput against the pre-feature baseline.
Commit throughput is unregressed (~2.5% delta, within noise) and no per-fact
synchronous commit barrier exists, confirming Req 11.4's core claim. But
apply/observable throughput -- the new hop this spec introduces -- regressed
56% with clearly superlinear scaling (2x volume -> 5.2x elapsed).
Root cause: apply_pump_read_entry has no memory across calls -- every LSN
lookup re-lists WAL segments and rescans its segment from byte 0 -- while its
only caller applies committed entries one at a time in strict ascending
order, turning a sequential access pattern into O(n^2) total work.
Fixed with a minimal segment-read cache on persist_t (fd + offset + expected
next LSN, guarded by the existing apply_pump_lock): a fast path reads the
next expected LSN directly at a remembered offset, falling back unchanged to
full rediscovery on any miss. Correctness never depends on the cache, only
performance does. Invalidated on init, fini, recovery, and WAL truncation --
the four points a stale cursor could otherwise misread from.
Two review rounds: round 1 caught a missing lock guard in the recovery
invalidation path and an inaccurate risk claim about the cache/trim
interaction (a real, bounded behavior change deferred to the existing
APPLY_DIVERGENT fence, not "no worse than before") -- both corrected and
re-verified in round 2. Post-fix apply-throughput scales sublinearly (1.46x
elapsed for 2x volume) and exceeds the pre-feature baseline. Zero new test
failures across the pump, correctness-verification, recovery, and truncation
groups.
An intermittent, pre-existing client hang in the synchronous jobsub path and
a trim-floor/apply-lag architectural gap were surfaced but are explicitly
out of scope for this fix -- flagged for separate follow-up.
Full 79-group unit/integration suite re-run found exactly 2 stale tests in
test_commit_barrier_reply.c asserting task 3.2's documented interim
contract ("no observable effect until task 6 completes it"), which the
already-committed ordered apply pump (tasks 6.1/6.2) closed by construction.
Updated both to assert the real, deterministic apply-after-commit settled
state instead of the no-longer-true no-effect-yet state, matching the idiom
already used elsewhere in the same file. No production code changed.
Full suite: 0 failures across 79 groups. HA soak (--sequential, 5 rounds):
zero committed-job loss, zero divergence, all 3 nodes served as primary.
Both independently re-verified by adversarial review.
Adds --factstream HA soak mode driving real jstart/jfinish/jfail worker-fact
traffic against a live 3-node cluster, killing the primary mid-stream and
asserting zero committed-state divergence and zero phantom fact reactions.
Building this scenario surfaced bug-1416: persist_recover()'s boot-time
apply-correctness verification can race the live apply pump and the standby
live-replication apply path, both of which mutate the same last_applied_lsn/
job-table state the verification re-reads live -- producing a false
APPLY_DIVERGENT that permanently fences an otherwise-healthy node. Fixed with
a new persist_t.recovery_complete gate that defers only the in-memory apply
(never the durability write or replication ACK) while a recovery pass is in
flight, closed from the earliest safe point in myapp_run() so an election-
retry candidate can't apply live traffic before persist_recover() ever runs.
Round-2 adversarial review independently verified the ACK/durability paths
stay ungated, reproduced the myapp.c fix as load-bearing via revert-and-
reproduce, and confirmed real-divergence detection still fires. Live 3-node
factstream soak: 2/2 rounds PASS, zero APPLY_DIVERGENT across 5 recover
calls. controller_unit_test: zero new failures across 23 groups.
Extend raft_sim.c's deterministic TLA+-conformance harness with two
fault-injectable checks: no reaction before commit, and idempotent
re-apply of an already-committed entry. Wired as dedicated tests only,
not into raft_sim_check_all's fixed four-invariant contract (owned by
a separate spec). RED/GREEN independently verified by adversarial
review; zero regression to existing scenario functions.
Extend test_apply_pump_integration.c with 2 tests, no production
changes. Test 3 interleaves commands and facts through a real
quorum-loss outage and proves strict original-log-order catch-up via
a sequence spy. Test 4 wires a real 4-vcpu vtaskmgr_t to drive 4
commands + 2 facts through one covering ACK, creating genuine N-way
concurrent races across task 6.2's self-healing fix rather than one
isolated forced pair -- stress-testing bug-1415's fix under a
realistic catch-up burst.
Closes out task-group 6 (ordered apply pump integration): the pump
is now live, hands off command replies correctly, and is proven
correct for isolated and mixed/bursty command+fact scenarios under
both normal and quorum-loss conditions.
Add test_apply_pump_integration.c (2 tests), no production changes.
Exercises the full live pump (real commit engine, real apply
dispatch, real hook subscribers) for both a job submission and a
fact: proves reply-after-visibility ordering for commands, and zero
fact-reaction side effects during a delayed-commit/quorum-loss
window (polled repeatedly across real time, not checked once).
Confirms Req 4.3 by construction, not assertion: the apply walk only
ever invokes apply_committed_entry() for LSNs already <= committed_lsn,
so a consumer acting on the post-apply notification never needs to
separately re-check a commit watermark.
Independently verifies apply_committed_entry()'s generic
HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE routing (unchanged by task 6.1's _pad fix)
makes the type-specific sched.c/apiserver.c hook handlers
structurally unreachable for live-applied facts -- confirmed their
va_arg-typed signatures would type-confuse-crash if ever called with
the job_t* apply_committed_entry() actually passes, making the
single generic reaction spy a sound design, not a coverage gap.
Repo-wide audit confirms exactly 2 live call sites ever fire these
hook details (the guarded apply seam, and job_ctrl's legitimate
SIGCONT/SIGSTOP path) -- no orphaned third site.
Wire persist_apply_pump_run() to call persist_take_pending_apply()
immediately after each entry's apply_committed_entry() call,
invoking the registered continuation strictly after the mutation.
Adds jobsubmit_reply_success_once() (job.c) so a successful job
submission finally sends a client reply once every array element
applies -- closes the standing gap from task 3.2 where committed
submissions never got a response.
Fixes bug-1415: commit_resolve_pending() dispatches the commit
continuation and the apply-pump kick as two independent
VTASK_LIVE_BLOCK vtasks with no completion-order guarantee. On any
real multi-vcpu pool (the production default, n_vcpus=8), if the
apply pump won the race and advanced last_applied_lsn past an LSN
before its continuation registered, the registration was permanently
orphaned -- the job would be constructed and visible, but the client
would hang forever. Untested by every existing fixture in this spec
(all use pool=NULL, which trivially serializes and can't reproduce
the race).
Fixed with a self-healing check in persist_register_pending_apply():
if the LSN is already <= last_applied_lsn, invoke the callback
immediately instead of registering for later pickup. Verified by the
spec's first genuine multi-vcpu regression test (real vtaskmgr_t,
n_vcpus=4), independently RED->GREEN reproduced by two review rounds.
Build persist_apply_pump_run()/persist_apply_pump_kick() -- the
ordered walk from last_applied_lsn+1 through committed_lsn, applying
every entry via apply_committed_entry() regardless of commit mode.
This is the first live (non-replay) consumer of that dispatch
function. Kick is wired into commit_resolve_pending() (the single
choke point all 6 internal committed_lsn-advancing paths funnel
through, discovered in task 1.2), dispatched via
vtask_enq_classified(VTASK_LIVE_BLOCK) with a CAS-coalesced
fire-and-forget trigger.
Fixes the two hazards flagged since task 4.1 as required before
going live:
1. Double-append: a thread-local call-provenance guard
(t_apply_seam_notifying) prevents persist_job_hook_fun/
persist_queue_hook_fun/persist_worker_hook_fun from re-appending
entries the apply pump itself just applied, while preserving
job_ctrl's legitimate live command-path appends (a naive
detail-based filter would have broken SIGCONT/SIGSTOP). Also
closes an undocumented instance of the same hazard in the
queue/worker hook functions.
2. Merge-staleness: record_job_fail_fact/postdone's fact recording
previously baked a receipt-time-computed final job state into the
WAL entry, which goes stale under deferred apply -- a FINISH
followed shortly by an ordinary post-exec FAIL could silently
clobber a correct DONE completion with a stale RUN|EXIT|PERR, no
guard catching it. Fixed by repurposing wal_jobstate_t's unused
_pad field to carry just enough data (FAIL's stage) to recompute
against the job's actual current state at apply time via the real
apply_job_fail_transition()/new apply_job_postdone_transition()
guard cores, instead of overwriting with a stale absolute value.
Backward compatible: _pad==0 (all prior data) routes to the same
legacy overwrite behavior.
Also fixes bug-1409 (unbounded busy-loop in apply_pump_drain when
committed_lsn advances without a corresponding on-disk entry) and a
genuine test-flakiness hazard (a second, independent apply-pump
kicker from the fsync_worker thread that existing tests didn't
account for).
Two pre-existing tests in test_commit_barrier_reply.c now fail as
expected -- their own assertions state "no job may be constructed
until task 6's apply pump exists," now correctly invalidated by this
task landing; updating them is task 7.3's explicit job.
Add explicit test coverage for the DIVERGENT fence's stay-alive and
restart-only-clear guarantees (task 5.3), which surfaced a critical,
pre-existing safety gap: the sticky recovery_unrecoverable flag is
trigger-agnostic, and two pre-existing live call sites in ha.c
(promotion_fence_timeout_fn's periodic timer, and
raft_cb_become_leader's promotion-eligibility gate) clear it based
purely on structural conditions, never checking the apply verdict.
A node whose local apply dispatch diverges from the committed log,
but whose WAL bytes are otherwise structurally healthy, would have
its fence silently released by the live timer, then be eligible for
promotion to primary on a later election -- serving genuinely
divergent state.
Fix: gate both clear-call-sites on persist_apply_verdict(&c->persist)
!= APPLY_DIVERGENT in addition to their existing structural checks.
An apply-divergence-triggered fence can now only clear via a fresh
process restart's clean persist_recover() replay.
New tests: test_promotion_fence_apply_divergent_survives_structural_catchup
(test_commit_durability.c) covers the timer site; and
test_promotion_refused_when_apply_divergent_even_if_eligible
(test_convergence_verification.c) covers the promotion-gate site,
structurally isolated so it cannot pass for the wrong reason.
Closes out task-group 5 (restart apply-correctness verification).
Add bool apply_divergent to the existing recover_policy_inputs_t;
persist_recover_decision() unconditionally short-circuits to the
existing RECOVER_DECISION_FENCE_UNRECOVERABLE when true, reusing the
same sticky recovery_unrecoverable flag and
persist_recover_loud_fence_if_unrecoverable() -- no new fence
mechanism, no ha.c changes needed (the existing promotion gate
already reads the flag independently), no new self-termination path.
Fixes a real bug found during review: the fence's operator-facing
ERROR() log unconditionally asserted a "no healthy peer reachable...
durable_floor_lsn < hwm" clause that was only truthful for the
pre-existing structural-fence trigger. For the new apply_divergent
trigger this produced literally false claims in test output
("100 < 100", "2 < 0"). Fixed by branching the log call itself on
apply_divergent so it states only the verified reason.
Add apply_verdict_t (APPLY_CLEAN/APPLY_DIVERGENT) computed alongside
the existing structural (CRC) recover_verdict_t. Dual-check design:
an entity-count check (WAL_JOB_SUBMIT entries scanned vs live jobmgr
growth, genuinely independent of apply_committed_entry()'s return
code) and a position check against a new last_applied_lsn field
(forward-looking infrastructure for task 6's live pump).
Fixes a real bug found during review: the position check's
expectation was computed from the physical WAL-scan tip
(current_lsn - 1), which advances past checkpoint markers and
unknown entry types that never reach apply_committed_entry(). A
crash between persist_checkpoint()'s marker-fsync step and its
later snapshot-persist step leaves a trailing checkpoint marker on
next boot, which falsely reported APPLY_DIVERGENT on a perfectly
clean recovery -- reachable today, not gated behind a future task.
Fixed by reading last_applied_lsn directly, which only advances for
entries actually dispatched through the apply seam.
Known accepted gap: entity-count check covers jobs only, not
workers (which can genuinely be created via WAL_WORKER_CTRL) --
documented for future extension.
Add test_fact_state_unchanged_throughout_quorum_loss_outage to
test_commit_barrier_reply.c (30->31), no production changes. Drives
a real repl_remove_standby quorum-loss window through all 4
fact-receipt handlers, polls live state and committed_lsn at 5
time-spread points (not once), asserts a real hook-spy never sees
AFTER_EVENT fire, and confirms durable WAL presence via direct
on-disk read.
Documents an architectural asymmetry for task 6 planning: facts have
no commit-timeout concept (COMMIT_MODE_RETAIN registers no
continuation, "never honors the timeout") unlike commands'
commit_submit_async -- the apply pump must discover newly-committed
retained facts purely via committed_lsn advancement, not any
per-fact signal.
Closes out task-group 4 (fact apply-after-commit split).
Convert on_job_start/on_job_finish/on_job_fail/on_job_postdone to
validate and durably append only -- BEFORE_EVENT validation hook
unchanged, AFTER_EVENT (post-mutation) hook no longer fires at
receipt, live state mutation removed. Adds persist_submit_job_fact()
(persist.c) since the durable append previously lived inside the
very AFTER_EVENT hook this task silences; wire format is unchanged
and identical to what apply_committed_entry() already routes.
mark_job_start/mark_job_finish (single caller each) renamed in place
to record_job_start_fact/record_job_finish_fact. mark_job_fail/
mark_job_update (shared with job_ctrl's client-command path, out of
boundary) left untouched; new durable-append-only siblings
record_job_fail_fact/record_job_update_fact added instead.
Accepts a narrow, permanent regression: on_job_postdone's finish_time
anomaly backstop has no wire-format equivalent and is dropped
(affects only a rare no-prior-exit-status path).
Two critical hazards discovered by review, documented in tasks.md,
MUST be resolved before task 6 wires apply_committed_entry() into a
live path: (1) persist_job_hook_fun still fires on HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE
and will double-append every live-applied fact; (2) record_job_fail_fact/
record_job_update_fact precompute a final state that can be silently
clobbered by a concurrent intervening fact once apply is deferred by
the commit round-trip.
Add 4 tests to test_commit_barrier_reply.c (25->29), no production
changes: explicit-FAILED via truncation (distinct from timeout),
repeated failure loops (5 cycles) for both timeout and truncation,
and an array_size>1 mixed-outcome test proving a committed sibling's
apply hand-off isn't blocked by failing siblings while producing
zero phantom jobs for the failures and exactly one batch-level
failure reply.
Closes out task-group 3 (command apply-after-commit ordering).
Replace handle_jobsubmit()'s blocking commit call (task 3.1) with a
real async registration against commit_submit_async(). On
FAILED/timeout, replies failure immediately with no job constructed.
On COMMITTED, hands off to a new pending-apply registration
(persist_register_pending_apply) for the ordered apply pump (task
6.1, not yet built) to consume -- does not apply or reply directly,
per design.
Deviates from design.md's stated integration site: appends via the
same ha_primary_log_append/persist_wal_async primitive the RETAIN-fact
path already uses and calls commit_submit_async directly on
p->repl.ce, bypassing repl_wait_majority_ack/repl_submit_majority_commit
in repl.c. Verified safe -- majority-ack detection is driven entirely
by (ce, lsn) events inside the commit engine, agnostic to which
wrapper registered the continuation -- but narrows the reusable
primitive design.md intended; documented in tasks.md.
Deletes (not preserves-dead) task 3.1's bug-1408 notification fix --
apply_committed_entry()'s WAL_JOB_SUBMIT case (task 2.2) already
fires the notification per-entry, immune to the batch-suppression
class bug-1408 fixed.
IMPORTANT: no live path applies a successfully-committed job
submission until task 6 lands (only restart replay does) -- every
successful submission commits durably but gets zero reply until
then. This commit range must not be soak-tested or deployed against
live traffic before task 6 completes.
Reorder handle_jobsubmit() so job objects are constructed via
create_job() only after the WAL commit succeeds, not before. Adds
jobid_range_exists() for a fast-fail pre-check with no WAL work, and
persist_submit_job_payloads_and_commit() (persist.c) operating on raw
xce_job_t* payloads instead of pre-existing job_t*. Commit remains
synchronous -- converting to the continuation-based commit API is
task 3.2.
Fixes bug-1408 (found during review): the post-commit array-
construction loop suppressed notification for an entire array batch
if any one sibling element failed to construct, stranding other
durably-committed and successfully-constructed jobs invisible until
the next restart's replay. Notification now fires unconditionally
for every successfully-constructed element, independent of sibling
failures; the client reply still separately reports the batch's
construction status.
Add test_apply_reapply_idempotency.c (3 tests, no production changes):
triple-reapplication of an identical job submit with hook-count and
pointer-identity assertions across every call, the NOOP_DUPLICATE
guard branch (untested by task 2.2), and the task's named scenario --
real SUBMIT then real FINISH then a stale out-of-order START, all
through the real apply_committed_entry() dispatch -- confirming the
job stays terminal with no spurious notification.
Closes out task-group 2 (shared apply seam for committed entries).
Rewire replay_wal()'s per-entry apply call from apply_wal_entry() to
apply_committed_entry() (task 2.2's shared dispatch seam), so restart
replay and the future live commit-advance pump (task 6.1) both
produce materialized state deterministically from the committed log.
apply_wal_entry() is not retired -- it remains ha.c's live standby
catch-up/replicated-apply dispatch, untouched.
Documents a real hazard: replay now fires AFTER_EVENT hooks for the
full post-checkpoint WAL range on every restart, including entries
already applied+notified in a prior process life. Traced and
confirmed inert today for both hook consumers (scheduler registers
post-boot, apiserver gates notify on a connected endpoint empty at
boot); flagged in tasks.md and in-line at the call site for
re-verification before tasks 4.1/6.1/6.2/6.3 make this path broadly
live.
Add apply_committed_entry(persist_t*, wal_type, lsn, payload, len) in
persist.c/persist.h as the single seam that turns a committed WAL
entry into an in-memory mutation plus its post-mutation notification
hook, covering job submit, job-state facts, queue control, and
worker control. Job-state facts route through 2.1's guard-only
apply_job_update_transition() core and fire a generic
HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE, not per-type hooks — the wire format
(wal_jobstate_t {jobid, state}) cannot supply what the type-specific
cores/hooks require. This is a real, documented deviation from
design.md's per-type dispatch wording; tasks.md's Implementation
Notes flags it as unresolved and blocking for whoever wires this
into a live path (4.1/6.2/6.3).
Not yet wired into any live call site (replay wiring is 2.3).
Split mark_job_start/finish/fail/update in job.c into four hook-free
core functions (apply_job_*_transition) containing only the
monotonic-rank guard and mutation. Wrappers now peek the same guard
to decide hook-firing, then delegate to the core, preserving exact
pre-extraction hook-firing timing. Prerequisite for task 2.2's
apply_committed_entry() dispatch and the ordered apply pump (6.1).
Closes out task-group 1 (the commit-engine event-driven-resolve
keystone). Pure test-only: real pthreads racing the admission gate,
the sweep thread, and commit_on_ack, not sequential calls dressed as
concurrent. Adds the genuine two-real-thread ack-vs-sweep-thread race
both task-1.3 review rounds flagged as a nice-to-have (the existing
race test only proved the tie-break via single-thread white-box state
manipulation).
Also resolves the bug-1407 saga: task 1.4's "closed, 70/70" and this
task's initial "reopened, 10/10 failing" were both correct,
contradictory measurements of the identical source commit. Root cause
was a stale incremental-build artifact in the shared build/ directory
(ninja -C build rebuilt incrementally across 5 sequential tasks
without ever a fresh meson setup) -- not a source regression. Proven
by isolating each measurement in a throwaway git worktree with a
fresh build. bug-1407 is genuinely closed; the incremental-build
staleness gotcha is now documented in cerebrum.md for the remaining
task series.
commit_resolve_pending_above(ce, lsn_floor, rc) fails every registered
continuation for lsn > lsn_floor, reusing commit_resolve()'s existing
exactly-once/idempotent guarantee (no parallel bookkeeping path).
Truncation: a new on_truncate/truncate_cb_ctx callback on persist_t
(same inversion-of-control shape as the existing on_durable_advance
hook) fires from persist_truncate_wal_above after releasing p->lock,
only when entries were actually removed. This one wrapper covers all
three real truncation call sites: raft_cb_become_leader's
post-election truncate, the library's on_truncate_from
conflict-reconcile, and ha_demotion_convergence_fn's post-demotion
truncate.
Demotion: raft_cb_become_follower calls
commit_resolve_pending_above(&c->commit, 0, -XCE_ERR_STANDBY) --
lsn_floor=0 fails everything, since a demoted node can never
authoritatively confirm anything still pending (CP posture).
Without this, a demoted or truncated node would leave any pending
async command permanently unresolved -- the requester would simply
never get a reply, worse than today's bounded-timeout behavior.
Also closes bug-1407 (pre-existing test_config_repl flake, unrelated
to this feature) -- confirmed fixed as a side effect of prior tasks
in this series, 70/70 passing across 3 independent runs.
Converting COMMIT_MODE_WAIT away from a blocking wait removed the only
mechanism that ever detected a commit timing out (the caller's own
pthread_cond_timedwait deadline). Adds a dedicated per-commit-engine
sweep thread that arms an equivalent timeout for async-registered
continuations, resolving FAILED/-ETIMEDOUT within the same
DEFAULT_SYNC_TIMEOUT_MS window the old blocking path used, with no
thread parked to detect it.
Chose a private sweep thread over the shared delaymgr: wiring
delaymgr would touch cluster.c/ha.c (out of boundary) and its 200ms
poll granularity vs the 500ms default timeout would add jitter,
breaking the "identical failure timing" no-regression bar.
Round 1 review rejected a lost-wakeup race: the sweep loop computed
its next-deadline snapshot under lock, unlocked to dispatch, then
slept on the stale snapshot -- a registration landing mid-dispatch
had its broadcast lost (no thread parked on the condvar), so the
sweep thread could sleep on an absent/late deadline indefinitely.
Fixed by holding the lock continuously across scan-then-wait
decisions and always re-scanning immediately before ever waiting
(recheck-then-wait idiom). Round 2 review independently reproduced
the round-1 bug shape against the fix to confirm it actually closes
the race, not just narrows it.
commit_resolve() delivers a registered continuation's outcome exactly
once (idempotent re-resolve), dispatched off-thread via
vtask_enq_classified(VTASK_LIVE_BLOCK) so it never runs inline on the
replication-ACK or iomgr path. Wired into all 6 commit.c-internal
paths that can advance committed_lsn/writable_lsn.
Review caught a real task-graph gap, not a defect: converting
COMMIT_MODE_WAIT away from a blocking wait also removes the only
mechanism that ever detected a commit timing out (the caller's own
cond_timedwait deadline). Nothing yet arms an equivalent timeout for
async-registered continuations, and nothing wires demotion/log-truncation
detection to commit_resolve(FAILED, ...) -- left as-is, a pending async
command during quorum loss would hang forever instead of failing,
which is worse than today. Split into new tasks 1.3 (timeout arming)
and 1.4 (demotion/truncation wiring), renumbered the old concurrency
test to 1.5, and made 3.2 depend on both since its failure/timeout
observable is meaningless without them. design.md's File Structure
Plan updated to reflect that ha.c/persist.c need a narrow touch for
1.4's detection hooks.
commit_submit_async() lets a WAIT-mode caller register a continuation
against an appended LSN instead of blocking on pthread_cond_timedwait,
reusing the existing admission-cap discipline (wait_admit_locked/
wait_release_locked) so the bounded-capacity guarantee carries over
unchanged. Purely additive: no existing call site (repl_wait_majority_ack)
is touched yet -- that switch lands in task 3.2 once commit_resolve()
(task 1.2) exists to drive it.
Full Kiro spec for the apply-after-commit refactor: canonical
append->commit->apply->notify ordering, a single apply_committed_entry
seam shared by live commit-advance and restart replay, and the
Facts-Apply invariant (ha-consistency-invariants criterion 2.9)
reconciling worker-reported facts onto the same seam.
Adds the Raft Apply-Ordering & Hook Decoupling roadmap phase: canonical
pre-hooks -> raft commit -> apply -> notify ordering, with the raft protocol
step lifted out of the notification hook fan-out (root of the bug-795/828/
851/1060 divergence family). Decision: apply-after-commit via a single
shared apply_committed_entry() seam reused by online apply and restart
replay.
- raft-drive-async: full spec docs (brief/requirements/research/design)
committed alongside its already-tracked tasks.md; async-drive prerequisite
for the apply-decoupling work, sequenced to start first (threatens
failover liveness today).
- raft-apply-decoupling: new spec (brief + facts-in-raft.md) covering the
apply seam and the facts (WAL_MODE_RETAIN) apply-timing question (open
decision D1).
- job-array-single-wal-record: promoted from backlog to a tracked spec,
sequenced after raft-apply-decoupling.
- ha-consistency-invariants: add criterion 2.9 (Facts-Apply invariant),
documenting the current on-receipt fact-reaction deviation this family
will reconcile.
- raft-commit-safety / raft-log-replication: reconcile spec.json phase to
"implemented" (both were mislabeled tasks-generated despite full 18/18
and 24/24 task completion + raft_sim GO).
