Replaces the stub: builds a WalCatchupEntry AppendEntries to standbys[peer_idx].ep
carrying prev_log_index/prev_log_term; for n_entries==1 sources the entry at
prev_log_index+1 from the local WAL (term via persist_entry_term, type+payload via
ha_read_wal_entry_at); n_entries==0 emits a zero-entry heartbeat. Async send
(xce_wal_batch_req_raw), payload freed on all paths. 2 tests via a capture seam.
Review-applied: corrected the misleading repl.c comment — leader_commit is accepted
but NOT yet wire-encoded (deferred to task 3.2: WalCatchupEntry leaderCommit field +
standby intake). Reviewer APPROVED; per-group 0 failures.
configAck branch: per-push majority (acked_config_lsn >= push_tag,
1+count > n_peers/2 over r->ce->n_peers, n_peers<=1 immediate,
ce==NULL -EINVAL); legacy >0 counting and n_active==0 shortcut dead.
push_config_to_standbys returns the barrier result; upgrade failure ->
send_upgrade_error (rc forwarded), no success ACK, no restart,
committed_config_tag success-only.
Remediation r1 (two CRITICAL review findings):
- F1: wire production config-ACK ingestion — replconfigpushreplymsg
decode branch in repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch -> repl_on_config_ack
on the promoted-vote ep; + defensive cluster.c OPCode_reply case.
Closes the unlanded half of ha-config-bootstrap 8.1; without this the
barrier would brick every multi-member config upgrade. No schema change.
- F2: keep the barrier off the iomgr thread — export
push_config_transport_only (non-blocking) for the 5 ha.c + join.c
streaming sites; barrier path now vtask-only (do_upgrade_config).
Wire-path test drives real capnp ACK bytes through the production decode
branch. 30/30 rollout, 6/6 repl_majority, 46/46 config_repl; census 0
FAIL; pre-existing fixture leak only (less than baseline).
replicator_t gains ce pointer (set-once-before-traffic contract).
repl_on_ack feeds commit_on_ack after releasing r->lock (iomgr-safe);
four membership mutators feed commit_on_membership_change post-unlock,
gated on actual mutation. walAck branch delegates to commit_submit(WAIT)
when ce wired AND entry_lsn != 0 (LSN-0 interim guard until 5.3);
legacy counting kept for ce==NULL, marked DEPRECATED. commit.c linked
into production target (inert until 5.3 wiring). Tests 30-31 + all
repl_majority walAck cases green; 33/34 remain RED for 5.3; baseline
unchanged.
Tests 21-28: repl_active_standby_count contract (5 RED vs inert -1
stub) + 3 gate-level pins (n_peers<=1 always-true, zero-connected
reject, stateless re-accept) that 4.2 must preserve. Declaration in
repl.h; ha.c/ha.h untouched (4.2 boundary). 28 tests / 5 RED; suite
at the 3-failure baseline with unchanged signatures.
Implement the catch-up state machine as testable pure-logic functions:
- repl_start_catchup(): marks standby in_catch_up=1, stores join_applied_lsn
- repl_complete_catchup(): clears in_catch_up=0, broadcasts ack_cond so any
blocked repl_wait_ack() re-checks the ACK condition immediately
- repl_needs_snapshot(): pure predicate — returns 1 when standby LSN predates
oldest surviving WAL segment (snapshot transfer required), 0 otherwise
Also fixes pre-existing linker error: repl.c was missing from controller_src
(xce_controller production binary), causing undefined references to repl_*
symbols introduced in P2-4.
7 new TDD tests in test_repl_catchup.c — all pass. Existing tests green.
- Move repl.h from controller/ to include/ (shared header) to break
persist.h ↔ repl.h circular include
- Extract wal_entry_hdr_t + wal_entry_type into include/wal_types.h so
repl.h can include only what it needs without pulling in all of persist.h
- Add replicator_t repl field to persist_t (embedded by value, P2-4)
- Wire repl_init/repl_fini into persist_init/persist_fini lifecycle
- Wire repl_broadcast into persist_wal_async after each WAL write;
last_replicated_crc updated here (not in persist_write_checkpoint_marker)
- Wire repl_wait_ack into persist_wal_sync_append; returns 0 on local
WAL success; sync_rc_out carries -ENODEV/-ETIMEDOUT for degraded mode
- Add 4 TDD tests in test_persist_repl.c: structural repl field check,
async no-standbys succeeds, sync degraded mode rc, checkpoint CRC invariant
