Restructure seqjob's my_alloc() as a trivial single-bucket case over the
shared xce_alloc_plan_iter_t/xce_host_iter_t contracts, replacing its own
inline worker-collection loop. Guard seqjob_prepare_allocation() to
maxTasks == 1, closing the fan-out gap for the parallel allocator's later
fix (Req 9.1, 4.6).
Export sched_try_alloc_on_host_() from resource.c (drop static/va_list,
plain (worker, sched, ctx) signature) so seqjob calls the real per-host
try-alloc leaf instead of a private duplicate; delete the now-dead
sched_try_alloc_on_hosts() variadic wrapper. Also wires host_iter.c into
the production scheduler_srcs list (task 2.1 only added it to testsuite).

Adds alloc_cache.c: xce_cache_key_t, cache_key_ops (the corrected
three-way, 0-means-equal .cmp -- an inverted-boolean version was a
real bug found during design review), and cache_lookup/insert/clear
against a real kvtab_t (constructed matching xce_select.c's
sel_node_table_init() precedent). Cache values are a boxed reason-
category int, not a bare hit/miss sentinel, satisfying Req 7 AC5's
requirement that a hit reproduce the original pend-reason category.
unsatisfiable_cache lives on xce_scheduler_t per Req 7 AC1.

Adds host_iter.c: the one shared xce_host_iter_t implementation,
lazily filtering sched->core.workers by select expression
(sched_meet_host_selection, unchanged) and resource availability
(sched_check_host_satisfy, unchanged), with a real cancellation
point per candidate visited. xce_alloc_plan_t gains a ctx field
(xce_sched_ctx_t*) so the iterator can reach the scheduler/select
expression/staged resource-want -- additive to task 1.1's approved
interface, NULL-guarded at init(). Test proves the core design
property this spec exists to establish: a host too small for one
search remains a valid candidate for a later, smaller search via a
fresh iterator instance over the same worker set.
Task 2.1 (scheduler-allocation spec). Requirements 3.1-3.6.

Adds sched_ctx_uncommit_host() (resource.c), the structural inverse
of sched_try_alloc_on_host_()'s existing XVEC_ADD_FLOAT commit call,
scoped to ctx->uncomitted only per requirements.md's Rollback scope
discussion. Test exercises the real sched_ctx_get_uncomit_host()
(schedobj.c) via white-box #include rather than a private
reimplementation, matching test_picker_config_fields.c's established
precedent.

Adds xce_alloc_mode_t (XCE_ALLOC_NORMAL=0, XCE_ALLOC_PREEMPT, with
commented-out RESERVE/BACKFILL placeholders) and alloc_mode on
xce_sched_ctx_t, zero-defaulted by sched_ctx_init()'s existing
memset. Purely additive: nothing branches on the field yet -- this
spec only declares the extension point scheduler-preemption needs.

Adds rusage_hash to xce_primary_resreq_t (computed once by
parse_resreq_primary() via a new hash_rusages() helper, hashing
rusage content rather than raw struct bytes since resname is a
non-interned strdup'd pointer), the xce_resreq_fingerprint_t value
type, and resreq_fp on xce_primary_schedobj_t, populated once at real
job-ingest time in core_build_primary_schedobj().

(init/next/fini vtables, stack-allocate-then-init-in-place convention
matching sched_ctx_init) as reusable abstractions any allocator can
adopt. Proven usable by a trivial no-op reference implementation and
a fresh-per-bucket host_iter composition test, no allocator wired in
yet.

An idle scheduler (nothing queued to publish) never noticed a dead
controller connection: sched_needs_rejoin was only ever set as a side
effect of an active client-library call, and an idle round makes none.
After any controller failover with nothing already in flight, jobs
submitted to the new primary stayed PEND indefinitely.
Adds xcecli_is_connection_broken() (libxce) -- a pure, socket-free read
of the transport's already-async-maintained dead/alive flag, set for
free by the existing RDHUP disconnect handler with zero application
calls. sched_check_pending_rejoin() now retries xcecli_join() on either
the existing reactive flag or this new passive signal, so a healthy
idle scheduler still makes zero extra network calls while a genuinely
dead connection self-heals within one ~1s round -- live-verified
against a 3-node HA cluster (rejoin fired ~300ms after new-primary
election with nothing submitted in between).
Also closes out bug-1735 (job memory/CPU usage reporting): confirmed
already fixed on this branch since 2026-08-30, just never marked in
the bug log.

Adds reservation-vs-actual-usage reconciliation for real (gauge-style)
resources, using mem as the concrete case -- documented in the new
resource-accounting.md steering doc.
Policy: charged = max(reserved, actual). A job's rusage[mem=...]
request is an estimate made before it has run, and the real usage the
worker later reports may land above or below it; charging a flat
reservation for the job's whole life either starves other jobs of
memory it never uses (when actual stays below the estimate) or lets
the host be driven into genuine oversubscription (when actual exceeds
it). Available memory for scheduling is then the host's OS-reported
available figure minus, per job, only the UNUSED SLACK of the
reservation (max(0, reserved - used)) -- never the job's actual usage
on top of that, since the OS's own figure already reflects it.
The existing xce_res_account_t{used, reserved, allocated} fields and
sched_update_res_accounts()'s used+reserved charge formula already
implement this exactly, once `used` is set to the OVERAGE beyond the
reservation (max(0, actual - reserved)) rather than left at its
permanent 0.0 default -- nothing previously computed it.
New (resource.c): sched_reconcile_host_resource_usage() sets that
overage on one xce_res_account_t and applies just the DELTA to the
affected worker's resInUse (not a full uncharge/recharge of the whole
job_account, which would needlessly re-touch sibling resources like
"slots" charged in the same account). sched_reconcile_job_resource_usage()
is the wrapper driven from a raw rusage report: maps the worker's real
wire resname ("memory_rss", same worker-resname-vs-scheduler-resource-
name split bug-1735 already established for the controller side) to
the scheduler's "mem" resource, and is a no-op when the job spans more
than one host (the wire report carries no per-host attribution today --
a separate, undocumented-until-now gap, out of this fix's scope) or
never requested rusage[mem=...] in the first place (reserved=0, nothing
to reconcile).
Wired into sched_apply_job_rusage() (schedobj.c), which already
receives every job rusage tick but previously only stored it for
display/plugin hooks with no resource-accounting effect at all.
Compatible with sched_account_jobs()'s existing per-round resInUse
reset+re-derive cycle (bug-1624): the reconciled `used` value is
persisted on the job's own account record, which that re-derivation
already reads from, not just a transient pool-level delta that a
round boundary would wipe.
Added link-satisfying stubs to the three white-box test files that
#include schedobj.c directly (test_job_update.c,
test_picker_config_fields.c, test_picker_wiring.c) -- none of them
exercise real job->accounts, so the new call is unreachable there, but
still needs to link. 10 new regression tests in
test_resource_accounting.c cover the core formula (below/at/above the
reservation, delta-only pool updates, sibling-resource isolation) and
the wrapper's scoping rules (resname mapping, multi-host skip,
no-request no-op).
Full scheduler suite: 55/55 passing, zero regressions.

sim_loop.c never called plugin_begin_session()/plugin_end_session() at
its round boundary, unlike driver.c's normal-mode round -- a driver-
equivalence gap found by an /xce-audit-invariants scheduler pass.
Currently inert (sim mode's only reachable picker, builtin_fcfs, leaves
both hooks NULL) but structurally identical to bug-1613's class of bug.
Relocated plugin_begin_session()/plugin_end_session() from an implicit
xce_scheduler_t* to xce_sched_core_t* directly (mirroring
sched_account_jobs()'s prior relocation) -- their bodies never touched
anything beyond core->plugins, so driver.c's comment claiming they
"needed the full xce_scheduler_t*" was itself stale. sim_loop.c now
calls both, same relative position as driver.c. A full-tree grep (done
after the first build attempt failed on an untouched file) turned up a
third live call site in scheduler.c's legacy sched_begin_session()/
sched_end_session(), plus four testsuite files with their own stub
definitions of the same functions -- all updated to match the new
signature.
Extended test_sim_session_ordering.c's existing bug-1613 regression
tests with new plugin_begin_session()/plugin_end_session() spies
(call-count + session_active-window proof, same technique as the
existing sched_account_jobs spy). RED/GREEN independently verified:
temporarily disabled the two new call sites, confirmed both new
assertions fail (Expected 2 Was 0 / Expected 1 Was 0), restored,
reconfirmed green. Full scheduler suite: 51/52 green, the one failure
is the pre-existing unrelated bug-1560 sandbox flake.

Relocates sched_account_jobs()/sched_charge_account()/sched_uncharge_account()/
sched_update_account()/sched_update_res_accounts()/sched_commit_job_alloc()
from xce_scheduler_t* to xce_sched_core_t*, mirroring the sched_resolve_job_picker()
precedent, so the simulation driver can call the same accounting service the
normal-mode driver already uses. Pure signature relocation -- every body
reference was already sched->core.*, no logic change. Updates the 3 real call
sites (driver.c's normal-mode round, scheduler.c's sched_begin_session and
sched_commit_decision) and 7 existing tests' link-satisfying stub signatures.
Adds test_resource_accounting.c proving Requirement 1.4: the relocated
accounting produces identical resInUse/sharedInUse output whether called
against a core embedded in xce_scheduler_t or xce_sched_sim_driver_t.
43/44 scheduler tests pass; the 1 failure is pre-existing bug-1560
(unrelated recording.c sandbox-permission ordering issue).

Bugs fixed, discovered across a day of live-operator testing against a
real deployed cluster:
- bug-1584: clock anchors never initialized to real wall-clock values,
timestamps showed system uptime instead of Unix epoch.
- bug-1585: heap-use-after-free in the normal-mode driver's periodic
resval update path -- core_events.c's RESVALS_FULL/_DELTA handlers do a
shallow zarray_put() of the wire-decoded xce_val_t*, but driver.c's
release_translated_payload() unconditionally freed the same decoded
array right after, so the next periodic report for the same
worker+resource triggered a UAF read via kill_sched_resval(). New
regression test: test_resval_ownership.c.
- bug-1587/1588/1591: raw-ns/raw-uint64 jobid/timestamp prints across the
REPL/SIM family converted to the same human-readable formatting already
used elsewhere (fmt_jobid(), timestamp formatting).
- bug-1590: repl_info.c's XCE_VAL_NUMERIC checks corrected to
Value_u_fvalue, fixing `info worker`/`info resource` falling back to
0.00 for real numeric resvals.
task 12.5 (Req 5.22 amendment) -- five REPL gaps surfaced by a live
operator session, each with its own bug id:
- bug-1594: `continue`/`step` reaching EOF with no breakpoint hit now
re-enters the REPL via xce_repl_on_replay_complete() instead of exiting
the process; step/continue issued after replay is already complete
re-prompt instead of silently exiting.
- bug-1595: `step`/`continue` now echo each input event (not just
decisions) via repl_print_event_summary(), in real event/decision
order.
- bug-1593: `info resource <name>|all` now reports resource definition
metadata restricted to XCE_RESF_GLOBAL/XCE_RESF_SHARED resources, read
from core->sharedInst, instead of aggregating host-based resources
across every worker.
- bug-1596: repl_split_tokens() strips one matching pair of surrounding
quote characters from each token.
See requirements.md's Req 5 AC 22 "Amendment (2026-08-19)" for the full
rationale on each of the five task 12.5 gaps.
Full scheduler suite green (41/42; the one remaining failure,
test_recordstart_symlink_escape_replies_error, is the pre-existing
unrelated bug-1560).
Replace scheduler's inline per-candidate loop and separate single-host
branch with one unified pipeline (mirrors worker's task 2.1 fix): build
exactly one validated candidate list, whether from --peers or synthesized
as a single candidate from the legacy default, then connect through the
shared xce_cluster_config_to_client_config() helper exactly once.
Adds sched_on_reconnect(), a rejoin callback that only sets a flag and
returns immediately (no I/O, no xcecli_* calls) to avoid the self-deadlock
worker hit in task 2.3 — registered via xcecli_set_reconnect_handler()
after xcecli_start(), since xcecli_start() resets any handler registered
earlier back to NULL.
Adds test_scheduler_connect.c: behavioral tests confirm no-peers and
single-candidate configs produce identical connect log sequences and that
unreachable candidates fail fast without retry loops; structural tests
source-scan scheduler.c to confirm a single xcecli_ctx_init() call site, a
single xcecli_join() call site, and a rejoin callback body free of I/O and
xcecli_* calls.
Live-validated against a 3-node HA controller cluster: a scheduler
configured with the standby listed first in --peers fails over via
xcecli's built-in retry-next mechanism to the primary and joins
successfully.

Adds the interactive simulation REPL's breakpoint and state-inspection
commands (Req 5 AC 22): `break <event_type> [key=value ...]` / `info
break` / `delete <id>|all` on event and decision types, and `info
session/job/queue/worker/resource/summary`.
repl.c (370 lines after task 12.1) couldn't hold this task's full
surface under the project's 800-line cap, so it's split three ways
(matching the snapshot.c/snapshot_wire.c/snapshot_load.c precedent):
repl.c (execution control + dispatch), repl_break.c (matching/CRUD +
the three new driver-facing hooks), repl_info.c (info dumps), sharing
state via repl_internal.h. sim_loop.c gained 3 new bare hook calls
(repl.h inline wrappers, same pattern as task 12.1's two) at the
points design.md's pseudocode requires -- per decoded event before it
joins the batch, per session boundary, and per drained decision --
landing sim_loop.c at exactly 800/800 lines.
Two real bugs found and fixed during development (bug-1506, bug-1507):
an uninitialized xstr_table left breakpoint filter fields silently
NULL instead of failing loud, and repl_breakpoint_free() called a bare
free() on an RTTI-refcounted makeString() string, corrupting the heap.
Review found one gap: `info job` printed only a resreq presence flag
instead of the actual resreq text, when format_resreq() already
existed in this repo for exactly this purpose. Fixed to match.
Scheduler suite: 35/35 clean (was 34/34). RED-phase evidence (2 real
bugs plus 2 synthetic probes, all reverted with confirmed zero
residue) recorded in tasks.md.

Adds the interactive simulation REPL's execution-control slice (Req 5
AC 22): a single-threaded input loop (readline-based) supporting
step [N], continue, quit, and help, pausing before the first replay
event and blocking the driver loop while active.
Review round 1 raised two findings, both resolved here:
- GNU readline (GPL) was linked directly into xce_scheduler, a shipped
production daemon. Switched the whole project to libedit (BSD) for
line editing -- scheduler and controller (xce_test) both now use
editline/readline.h, API-compatible (readline()/add_history()).
- Getting a clean regression run after the libedit swap required a
full clean rebuild, which exposed a genuine pre-existing SIGSEGV
(bug-1504): SnapshotData.internalState was a capnp Data field, and
this codebase's capnpc-c backend silently no-ops Data-field
encoding without zero-initializing the caller's stack struct,
leaving an uninitialized capn_ptr written onto the wire. Fixed by
switching internalState to List(UInt8) (with a new internalStateLen
wire field), matching the working FetchFileReply.content/bytesRead
precedent -- no hand-written accessor code needed.
A second, unrelated instance of the same bug class was found in the
controller's WAL-catchup path (WalCatchupEntry.payload) and
deliberately left unfixed as bug-1505, out of scheduler-core's
boundary; needs its own project-wide Data-field audit.
Scheduler suite: 34/34 clean. RED-phase reproduction recorded in
tasks.md (repl_should_pause() step-budget check disabled -> 2/4
tests fail as expected -> reverted -> 34/34 green).

Add sim_record.c (scheduler_t-free .replay writer: ReplayHeader + loaded
SnapshotEntry once, then per-event pass-through and per-session
ReplaySession finalization) and wire --sim-alt-events event-source
selection into sim_loop.c's drain loop, coexisting with task 11.2's
stdout default and task 11.4's --sim-verify. Extract scheduler_t-free
halves out of recording_session.c's begin/end so sim-side code can reuse
the decision-encoding path without gaining an xce_scheduler_t* dependency,
preserving Req 5 AC 17 isolation. Per Req 5 AC 16/19.
Add sim_loop.c implementing sched_sim_driver_run(): decode .replay
messages in file order, jump the virtual clock to each ReplayEvent's
exact timestamp as it's queued, and run a real push-events/go/drain/
end-session cycle on each ReplaySession boundary (AC 14, AC 18).
Task 11.1 left no picker registered against the isolated core and no
thread backing its cbufs, which deadlocks the decision drain the moment
a real event loop exists. Add plugin_register_core() (registers a
picker against a bare xce_sched_core_t*, no xce_scheduler_t* required)
and extract builtin_fcfs_new_plugin() from register_builtin_fcfs() as a
behavior-preserving factory, plus a picker-driving thread for the sim
driver. Since real resource allocation is unreachable without a live
xce_scheduler_t* (scheduler-allocation spec's job), the sim picker
thread conservatively PENDs every candidate rather than dispatching.
28/28 scheduler suite, 32/32 whole-project tests green.
Add sim.h/sim.c implementing AC 13 steps 1-4: open+validate ReplayHeader,
locate the most recent SnapshotEntry at/before --sim-start-ts, load it via
xce_sched_core_load_snapshot(), and set the virtual clock anchors. Wire
all seven simulation CLI flags into main.c's task-5.2 mode-selection
branch. Event loop itself (step 5) deferred to task 11.2. Fixes two real
bugs found during TDD: a SnapshotEntry_get_ts() use-after-free and a
pend_updates NULL-deref in xce_sched_core_fini() for bare-core callers.
27/27 scheduler suite green, full project build clean.
Implements the scheduler's first request-reply opcode (OPCode_schedAdmin).
sched_handle_admin_request() (handler.c) decodes SchedAdminRequest and
dispatches by action: recordStatus answers synchronously (pure read);
recordStart/recordStop are deferred onto the existing pend_updates queue
(XCE_SCHED_OP_ADMIN_RECORD) since sched_record_start()'s snapshot call
requires the session_active==0 precondition only guaranteed on the driver
thread, not the async request-handling thread. driver.c's
xce_sched_driver_translate_pending_events() performs the deferred action
and sends the reply via a new xcecli_reply_schedadmin() (client.c/client.h),
correlated by seq copied before the original request is freed.
Adversarial review found a genuine cross-thread race: sched_record_status()
read driver-owned recording state (including a pointer the driver thread
frees) from the vtask thread with no lock -- the codebase's first such
race, missed by ASan (doesn't detect races). Fixed with a dedicated
record_lock scoped strictly to in-memory field access, never spanning file
I/O; sched_record_status() now strdup()s under the lock instead of
returning a borrowed live pointer. Verified with a real two-thread
lock-contention test (independently confirmed non-vacuous by removing the
lock and observing the test fail) plus a deterministic use-after-free
reproduction.
26/26 scheduler suite, clang-format clean.
Periodic checkpointing hooks into sched_record_write_events(): once per
call, when record_snapshot_interval > 0 and record_event_count crosses a
multiple of it, writes a fresh SnapshotEntry via the same
write_snapshot_entry() helper sched_record_start() already uses (made
non-static, zero duplication). Safe from the session_active precondition
because this call site is only ever reached from
xce_sched_driver_translate_pending_events(), which always runs strictly
between sessions.
Confirmed the write-failure error-handling half (AC 10) was already
complete from task 9.2's sched_record_abort_on_error() -- added the
missing end-to-end test using a genuine closed-fd write failure rather
than a mocked return code, proving the driver keeps processing sessions
afterward.
25/25 scheduler suite, clang-format clean. Two non-blocking follow-ups
logged in tasks.md: --record-snapshot-interval has no CLI wiring yet
(AC 11's own struct-field mechanism is fully tested, but nothing sets it
in production), and test_record_lifecycle.c has grown past this suite's
prior size precedent with a natural future split point identified.
Adds recording-state fields directly to xce_scheduler_t (no new
xce_sched_driver_t type, per task 9.1's precedent). sched_record_start()/
sched_record_stop() implement AC 10: validate via task 9.1's path
validator, open with a TOCTOU-hardened sequence (O_NOFOLLOW, no O_TRUNC,
fstat()+st_nlink==1 check before ftruncate()), snapshot the core, write
ReplayHeader+SnapshotEntry on start, ReplayEvent{endSession} on stop.
driver.c gains boolean-gated recording hooks in
xce_sched_driver_translate_pending_events() (per-event-batch ReplayEvent
writes, new recording_events.c) and xce_sched_driver_run_normal_mode_round()
(per-session ReplaySession writes, new recording_session.c) -- zero I/O/
allocation when inactive.
Two real bugs found and fixed during implementation: bug-1498 (O_TRUNC
would have truncated a hard-linked victim file before the TOCTOU check
could reject it) and bug-1499 (a transient edit dropped
xce_core_signal_go(), causing a 3-way thread deadlock).
test_record_lifecycle.c decodes the full start->events->session->stop
cycle with the real capnp decoders and asserts the exact message
sequence; TOCTOU regression tests use real symlink(2)/link(2) syscalls.
25/25 scheduler suite, clang-format clean.
Adds --record-dir CLI flag and sched_validate_record_filename() with
canonical-path containment (realpath()-based, not textual-prefix) plus
separator/".." rejection before any filesystem access.
Adversarial review found and this task fixed two CWE-59 inode-aliasing
bypasses: a direct hard link inside record_dir aliasing an outside file,
and a compound variant where a symlink pointed at an in-directory file
itself hard-linked outside record_dir. Both closed via st_nlink checks
on the direct entry and the fully-resolved symlink target respectively,
each verified with a live RED->GREEN reproduction. TOCTOU residual risk
documented and deferred to task 9.2 (O_NOFOLLOW + fstat() re-check).
18/18 recording subtests, 24/24 scheduler suite, clang-format clean.
Adds xce_sched_core_save_snapshot()/xce_sched_core_load_snapshot(),
split across snapshot.c/snapshot_wire.c/snapshot_load.c (800-line cap)
along real save/load/shared-helper boundaries. Serializes the full
core state (config, jobs, queues, workers, resources, resvals, users,
projects, prng_seed, internal_state) into/out of sched_snapshot_data_t
(task 7.3's committed C mirror of the capnp SnapshotData struct) as
plain in-memory structures -- no wire encoding here, that's a later
task. After load, rebuilds the picker's private state by re-invoking
its state-change hooks (queue updates, then job pushes) against the
restored core state, matching xce_core_push_events()'s own hook-firing
order; picker-private state itself is never stored in the snapshot.
Adds a new prng_seed field to xce_sched_core_t -- requirements.md/
design.md both presuppose it but no prior task added it. Seeded to 0,
no PRNG consumer wired yet (deliberately out of scope).
Cross-core behavioral-equivalence proven directly: two independent
cores, each with its own registered picker, save on one and load into
a freshly-initialized other, both driven through an identical real
session, decision sequences asserted identical in order.
Found and fixed two real bugs along the way: a missing prng_seed
restore in this task's own new code, and a genuine guard bug in
already-committed core.c (sched_get_user()/sched_get_project()
treating key_find()'s expected -ENOENT as fatal, silently breaking
get-or-create for any new name) that also affects the live production
path (make_sched_job(), JOBS_PUSH) -- a narrowly-scoped two-line fix,
independently traced to the primitive level and confirmed correct by
review.

(driver.c), replacing the old inline sched_update()+sched_begin_session()
+sched_go()+switch+sched_end_session() sequence.
xce_core_go() (task 4.4) is split into xce_core_begin_session()/
xce_core_signal_go() -- a pure decomposition (xce_core_go() itself is
now defined in terms of both, task 4.4's approved test suite passes
unmodified) -- specifically so the driver can interleave
plugin_begin_session()/sched_account_jobs() in the exact safety-critical
window task 4.4 deliberately excluded from pure-core scope: after the
resval reset, strictly before the picker thread is signaled. This is
empirically proven by test_driver_session_ordering.c via real
cross-thread happens-before assertions, not just documented.
xce_sched_driver_on_decision() is the new registered callback:
DISPATCH/PEND forward to the existing sched_publish_dispatch()/
sched_publish_pend_reason(); PREEMPT fails loudly (-ENOSYS, logged)
since no xcecli_preempt() client API exists and nothing in the live
allocator produces one yet (scheduler-preemption's territory).
Adds a --sim CLI flag (parse-only, loud not-yet-implemented failure,
since SimDriver is Phase 3).

Adds driver.h/driver.c: xce_sched_driver_translate_pending_events()
drains core->pend_updates via the existing dataq-swap pattern (same
mechanism sched_update() uses), translates all 10 xce_sched_update_
request_t op types into the matching xce_core_event_t, and pushes the
batch through xce_core_push_events(). Scoped to xce_sched_core_t*
alone -- pend_updates already lives on core since task 4.1, and this
task is translation-only (no decision publishing, no mode-selection,
no recording -- all later work). handler.c (the enqueue side) is
untouched. First task in Group 5 (Core: Normal-Mode Driver).

Adds xce_core_now() (new core_clock.c, kept separate from core.c so
test_core_isolation.c's wall-clock scan still enforces zero direct
clock_gettime()/time() calls elsewhere in the core): the two-anchor
plus speed formula (virtual_clock_base + (elapsed * speed_num) /
speed_den), covering all four modes (normal, discrete/real-time/fast-
slow simulation) via four new atomic fields on xce_sched_core_t,
defaulted to normal-mode (1/1 speed) in xce_sched_core_init().
requirements.md's literal tlog_reg_format_func(fn, core_ptr) call
shape doesn't exist in the real vendored tlog library (registration
takes only the callback; userptr is per-call-site, not bindable at
registration) -- resolved with a module-level active-core pointer read
by a new core-scoped format function, not wired into mylog_init()/
main.c yet. xce_core_go()/xce_core_end_session() (task 4.4) now stamp
session_start/compute session_duration_ns via xce_core_now(), with
their existing session-active/reentrancy behavior untouched.

Adds xce_core_go()/xce_core_end_session() (new core_session.c):
xce_core_go() is non-blocking, performs begin-session state reset
(select-eval-ctx, resval resets), signals the picker thread via wbuf,
and returns -EINVAL on a reentrant call while a session is already
active (proven a true no-op, not just an early return). Draining
core->decisions and invoking the driver's on_decision callback is the
driver's own responsibility between core_go() and core_end_session()
(confirmed driver-owned, not core-owned, per the Driver <-> Core
protocol). xce_core_set_decision_cb() registers the callback + driver
context as a separate setter, keeping xce_sched_core_init()'s live
sched_init() call site untouched. Adds XCE_DECISION_PREEMPT to
decision.h (jobid/victims[]/reason) alongside the existing DISPATCH/
PEND types. Additive only — sched_go/sched_begin_session/
sched_end_session/sched_allocator/main.c remain untouched.

Defines xce_core_event_type_t/xce_core_event_t (9 event kinds: config,
job, worker, resource, resval full/delta, job state change, job update,
queue update, job rusage) in core.h. Implements xce_core_push_events()
in a new core_events.c (split out of core.c to stay under the 800-line
cap): rejects -EBUSY mid-session, otherwise applies each event's core-
state mutation and fires the corresponding picker hook synchronously,
exactly once per event, before returning. CONFIG_PUSH decomposes the
pushed config's embedded queues/resources/resvals via shared helpers
(also reused by QUEUE_UPDATE's upsert path), mirroring the existing
sched_init_config()/sched_init_resources()/sched_init_sharedInst()/
sched_init_queues(). Narrows sched_resolve_job_picker() to take
xce_sched_core_t* (pure type change, zero behavior change). Purely
additive — not wired into the live scheduling path yet (task 5.x).

Splits xce_scheduler_t along the controller-I/O seam: xce_sched_core_t
(new core.h/core.c) now holds all scheduling state (jobs/queues/workers/
users/projects/resource managers/plugins/three-thread-cbuf pipeline),
while xce_scheduler_t shrinks to {core; apictx; cluster_cfg}. Proven via
an nm-based link-time isolation test (zero netio/xcecli/idgen/delaymgr
symbols reachable from core.c) plus a reproducible wall-clock-call guard.

Registers builtin_fcfs at scheduler startup and makes it the default
job_pick_plugin, replacing the hardcoded "xce_sched_fcfs" literal in
sched_job_picker() with a fail-loud lookup through sched_resolve_job_picker().
The picker thread now branches legacy job_elect_fn plugins (delegated
unchanged, preserving their self-contained wbuf-driven loop) from native
xce_job_picker_iface_t pickers (driven by a new per-session loop), and the
allocator now calls on_dispatch/on_pend for every picker as Req 1 AC 4
requires. Closes task 2.3's flagged picker/allocator concurrency race with a
mutex on fcfs_plugin_data_t, and adds cancel points to next_job().
plugin_register() now adapts an old-style job_elect_fn-only plugin to
xce_job_picker_iface_t via legacy_picker_wrapper_iface (next_job()
forwards to job_elect_fn; other hooks are safe no-ops covered elsewhere
in the existing lifecycle), logging a one-time deprecation warning. A
plugin that already sets picker_iface directly skips the wrapper and
the warning. Reuses the existing plugin_register()/key_find() mechanism
-- no parallel registration system.
Requirements: 1.6, 2.5
Add xce_job_picker_iface_t to plugin.h with all 13 hooks across
lifecycle/state-change/session/post-allocation/optional categories,
matching design.md's literal struct. Documents per-category thread
assignment, next_job() cancel-safety, and begin_session() session-reset
requirements. Forward-declares xce_sched_core_t (built in a later task).
Requirements: 1.2, 1.5, 2.6
bug-1453: remove unused client-side CA-certificate plumbing. C-side:
drop ca_cert_path from xce_cluster_config_t, do_connect()'s ca_cert
param, --ca-cert flags on worker/scheduler, and controller's cert
population (TLS is server-side only, SSL_VERIFY_NONE everywhere on
the client side already, verified zero SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations
calls in the C tree). Go-side: delete xcecli's self-signed cert
TOFU-pinning flow (cmd/auth/cert/*), CACert field, SetRootCAs/
loadRootCAs, and every call site.
bug-1454: fix xcecli_ctx_t leak in scheduler.c sched_init() — the
unconditional initial ctx_init was never freed before the HA
candidate loop re-initialized it on the first iteration.
bug-1455: sched_init()'s memset(sched, 0, ...) was silently wiping
sched->cluster_cfg that main.c had populated from --peers just before
calling sched_init(), so --peers was always ignored and the scheduler
fell back to the hardcoded localhost:9990 single-host default.
Restructured sched_init() to take cluster_cfg as an explicit parameter
(assigned after the memset) instead of relying on caller-side
ordering with a separate sched_set_cluster_cfg() setter, which is now
removed.
bug-1456: revert an unsafe stack-local xce_client_config_t introduced
while fixing bug-1455 — xcecli_ctx_init() stores that pointer as
ctx->conf and client_failover.c dereferences it for the ctx's entire
life (runtime reconnect), so a per-loop-iteration stack copy would
dangle the moment sched_init() returned. Back to mutating the
caller-owned, process-lifetime config in place.
Verified: full ASAN build (all components), meson test suite 9/9 OK,
manual scheduler testsuite 15/15, Go build/vet/test all pass.
5.5 (Req 6 / G-5): the JOB_RUSAGE notify path called the plugin but never
stored the usage data — xce_sched_job_t had no rusage field (UB-6.1 unmet).
- Add xce_job_rusages_t* rusages to xce_sched_job_t.
- New sched_apply_job_rusage() stores the report ON the job (ownership
transferred), replacing any prior via free_JobRusages_ptr; -ENOENT unknown,
-EINVAL NULL. Dequeue NULLs the request pointer on success; kill_sched_job
releases job->rusages.
5.8 (G-3): sched_pend_update_killer left five new-op payloads on empty
break cases — a per-message leak since ownership is transferred on enqueue.
- Free each with the exact generated deep-freer: free_QueueConf_ptr,
free_Resource_ptr[], free_ResourceVal_ptr[], free_ResValList_ptr,
free_JobRusages_ptr. Safe: handlers nullify on enqueue, makeResource copies
via makeInstance, dequeue copies values (no aliasing).
Tests: sched_job_update_test 7/7 (3 update + 4 rusage), regression
sched_test 15/15, ASAN clean (no bad-free/double-free).

The notify schedUpdateJob path shared XCE_SCHED_OP_UPDATE_JOB with the
dataset bulk-load, so the dequeue routed both to sched_update_jobs()
(create/replace) — a notify update to an existing job corrupted/duplicated
live job state and never returned -ENOENT (Req 3 UB-3.1/UB-3.2 unmet;
sched_update_existing_job was dead code copying only state).
- Add distinct op XCE_SCHED_OP_UPDATE_JOB_FIELDS (+ jobfieldsupdate union),
enqueued only by the notify handler, dequeued to sched_update_existing_job.
- Move sched_update_existing_job to schedobj.c; update all mutable fields
(state, priority, queue, resreq) in place; -ENOENT unknown, -EINVAL NULL.
- Dataset bulk-create path unchanged. Killer frees the new payload.
- New white-box test sched_job_update_test (3/3); regression sched_test 15/15.

Wire up 6 previously-stubbed message handlers in the scheduler:
resource dataset, resval dataset, job update notify, queue update
notify, resval update notify, and job rusage notify. Remove the
unreachable pushmsg branch (vtask_entry rewrites all pushmsg to
datamsg before the handler fires).
Changes by component:
- helper.h/helper.c: add xce_notify_event_name() for symbolic log names
- scheduler.h: add 5 new xce_sched_op_t values and matching union fields
- plugin.h/plugin.c: add plugin_job_rusage_hook_t and plugin_job_rusage_update()
- schedobj.c: add sched_update_existing_queue() with NULL/-ENOENT guards
- scheduler.c: wire 5 new dequeue cases; add sched_update_existing_job()
and static sched_op_name(); emit WARN log on handler failure
- handler.c: implement sched_handle_resources/resvals (dataset) and
sched_handle_sched_update_{job,queue,resvals}/job_rusage (notify);
remove dead sched_handle_jobpush/workerpush and pushmsg branch;
update TRACE logs to use symbolic name helpers
- test.c: 5 new unit tests covering notify event names, enum values,
and queue update NULL guard (15/15 pass)
Worker (xcecd):
- Add xce_cluster_config_t cluster_cfg field to controller_connector_ctx_t
(controller_connector.h includes xce/cluster.h)
- Populate cc_ctx->cluster_cfg from parsed cluster_cfg after xcecd_start()
sets cc_ctx (main.c, removes the P3 placeholder)
- Replace xcecd_join_cluster() single-shot connect with a candidate-iterating
loop: tries each candidate, calls xcecli_stop() before the next attempt,
falls back to the original single-host path when candidates_count == 0
Scheduler (xce_scheduler):
- Add xce_cluster_config_t cluster_cfg field to xce_scheduler_t
(scheduler.h includes xce/cluster.h)
- Add sched_set_cluster_cfg() setter
- Replace the hardcoded xcecli_start/xcecli_join pair in sched_init() with
the same candidate-iterating pattern; original single-host path preserved
- main.c calls sched_set_cluster_cfg() before sched_init() when --peers given
(removes the P3 placeholder comment)
checking_connection() already calls xcecd_join_cluster() on retry, giving
the worker free reconnect-after-failover behaviour for no additional code.
