The worker's rusage collector already measures and sends
"memory_swap"/"tasks_current" per job, but xce_host_runusage_t had no
field to receive them at all -- a complete dead end, not a naming
mismatch like bug-1735's cpu_time/mem_usage. Added mem_swap/
tasks_current fields (types.h), matching capnp fields on HostRunusage
(controller.capnp, new ordinals @3/@4) for WAL field-completeness, and
wired update_host_runusage() (misc.c) to parse them. Also fixed
merge_job_runusage()'s (job.c) existing-host merge branch, which only
copied cpu_time/mem_usage per host -- the two new fields would
otherwise have been silently dropped on WAL replay/catchup for a host
already seen.
Also computed peak_cpu_time as the running max of aggregate_job_
runusage()'s per-call cpu_time sum across every report a job has ever
received, guarding against a later report reducing it.
Deliberately NOT computed: peak_cpu_duration and the three efficiency
fields (mem_efficiency/avg_cpu_efficiency/peak_cpu_efficiency) -- these
need a "used vs. requested" ratio against a job's resource request (a
resreq expression tree, not a plain core/slot count) and/or an
unspecified duration semantic. A documented scope decision, not an
oversight -- see aggregate_job_runusage()'s doc comment.

test_recordstart_symlink_escape_replies_error expected "invalid record
file name" (the -EINVAL string), but sched_validate_record_filename()'s
canonical-path containment check has always, correctly, returned
-EACCES ("permission denied accessing record file") for a symlink
escaping record_dir -- confirmed against test_recording_path_validation.c's
own direct unit test for the identical scenario, which already asserts
-EACCES and has always passed.
Not environment-dependent as originally suspected (this project's
buglog carried it as a uid-1000-vs-root permission-check-ordering
theory across 7+ sightings since Aug 15) -- it fails identically
regardless of uid, since escape-containment and filesystem-permission
errors were never actually conflated in production code, only in this
test's assertion. No production code changed.

70+ testsuite/ files across controller/scheduler/lib call mkdtemp()
directly with no shared fixture helper, and none clean up after
themselves. Left unchecked this fills the sandbox disk (recurred three
times now: 2026-06-22, 2026-08-26, 2026-08-30, each larger than the
last -- 696GB at its worst), which then surfaces as unrelated
"Expected Non-NULL"-style cascade failures wherever the next test
happens to call mkdtemp()/persist_init(), easily mistaken for a real
regression.
Retrofitting cleanup into 70+ individual test files would be invasive
and risks breaking tests that inspect a fixture's contents across
multiple TEST_ functions in the same file. Every test run in this
project goes through xce-build.sh, so pruning once there -- age-gated
at 3 hours so a concurrent session's in-progress fixtures are never
touched -- is the lowest-risk single choke point.

Two independent gaps in misc.c/job.c, both silently zeroing every real
job's resource-usage data:
- update_host_runusage() matched worker rusage report resnames
"cputime"/"mem", but the real worker's collector
(collect_job_rusages(), xcecd_cgroups.c) sends "cpu_time_sec"/
"memory_rss" -- the two never matched, so cpu_time/mem_usage stayed
at their calloc()'d zero for every non-simulated job. Aligned both
sides, including xce_test's own simulated-worker fixture.
- update_job_rusages() had a standing FIXME: xce_job_runusage_t's
job-level max_mem/avg_mem/used_mem/cpu_time were never derived from
the per-host host_runusage[] entries. Added aggregate_job_runusage()
(sum/max/avg across hosts) and wired it in right after the per-host
update.
Added test_host_runusage.c (standalone unit test, mirrors
resval_typeresolve_unit_test's isolation pattern) plus the
controller_unit_test stub aggregate_job_runusage() needs since that
target excludes the real misc.c.

Two root causes, confirmed by direct code reading (previously misattributed
to an overlayfs sandbox fdatasync artifact):
conf_trim_old_versions() sorted config-version files by st_mtime (second
resolution). The test writes 3 versions 15ms apart -- well within one
second, so ties are the expected outcome, not a rare edge case. qsort()
isn't stable, so a tied ordering could push the protected current-pointer
file (skipped on deletion, never compensated) past keep_n, leaving one
extra file on disk ("Expected 2 Was 3"). Fixed by sorting on st_mtim
(nanosecond-resolution struct timespec) instead of st_mtime.
cr_setup() keyed its tmpdir on getpid()+time(NULL) (second resolution),
risking collision with a stale directory left by an earlier interrupted
run (ASAN abort, timeout, SIGKILL -- none reach cr_teardown()'s rm -rf)
reusing the same PID within the same second -- test_conf_get_saved_tag_
no_config then observed that directory as "not actually empty" and read
a leftover tag instead of the expected 0. Fixed with a monotonic counter
guaranteeing a unique directory per cr_setup() call.
TDD: RED reproduced on the first attempt (both tests failed with the
exact historical signature). GREEN confirmed across 16+ repeat runs
after the fix, zero other regressions.

Found while chasing bug-1714's crash (root cause still open -- see that
entry): two related, independently-confirmed defects, not proven to be
bug-1714's own cause but real bugs on their own merits.
xce_core_push_events()'s JOBS_PUSH case never checked sched_add_job()'s
return value -- if key_add() failed (duplicate jobid), the freshly-built
xce_sched_job_t was handed to picker_iface->on_job_push() anyway, even
though it was never registered in core->jobs. An orphaned job the
picker knows about but sched_get_job() can never find again. Now checks
the return, frees the orphan (at core_build_job()'s own established
cleanup granularity -- xce_sched_job_t has no complete destructor
anywhere in this codebase, kill_sched_job() only frees ->rusages, so
this intentionally doesn't invent a more thorough one), and skips the
picker call.
This makes it safe to fix (not the other way around): sched_on_job_array()'s
per-element dedup check (handler.c) has a TOCTOU race -- a job is only
added to core->jobs later, by the driver thread, so a redelivered array
push arriving on the request thread before the driver catches up isn't
caught. Documented as a best-effort optimization, not a correctness
boundary -- the actual authoritative uniqueness check is sched_add_job()'s
key_add(), which the JOBS_PUSH fix above now handles correctly.
TDD: new test reproduces the duplicate-jobid path (RED: on_job_push
fired twice, Expected 1 Was 2), GREEN after the fix. Full scheduler
regression: 54/55, only the known bug-1561-adjacent flake.

Follow-up to ebe691c3 (HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_START/JOB_EXIT), same gap for job
failures: apply_committed_entry()'s WAL_JOB_FAIL case only ever fired
the generic HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE, leaving sched_job_fail_fun (sched.c)
and apiserver_job_fail_fun (apiserver.c) dead -- the apiserver's
OnJobFinished was starved of data for job failures specifically (the
prior fix only closed this for clean finishes).
Fires HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_FAIL only for the WAL_JOB_FAIL_STAGE_FLAG branch,
which already constructs a real job_failinfo_t -- the legacy _pad==0
absolute-overwrite branch has no fail-specific data and must not
fabricate one, mirroring how the WAL_JOB_START fix only fires when
pidinfo was genuinely decoded. Unlike WAL_JOB_START, no gate-widening
was needed: apply_job_fail_transition() always returns
JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED for a genuine new fail transition (confirmed by
reading it), so the existing result-gated early return already covers
this correctly.
TDD: RED confirmed (fix reverted, test failed "Expected 2 Was 1"),
GREEN after restoring it. Full regression: 1220 tests, only the known
bug-1561 flake.

test_live_config_push_against_standby_returns_standby_rejection_not_redirect
locked in the OLD controller behavior (a standby flatly rejects
OP_upgradeConfig with no redirect fields). That gap is now closed:
myreq_handler's gate-rejection path calls fill_redirect_reply() on
every -XCE_ERR_STANDBY rejection (bug-1700), and handle_ctrlhello() now
actually populates primary_host/primary_port from the static --peers
list (bug-1701) -- a standby pushing config now redirects to the
primary and the push succeeds. Renamed to
test_live_config_push_against_standby_redirects_and_succeeds and
rewritten to assert the new behavior.
_assert_primary_committed() changed from a single-shot log read to a
poll loop (up to 5s) for the "config activated from committed
marker..." line -- accounts for the documented async gap between the
majority-ack-gated client reply and the primary's own local WAL-apply-
pump activation, a real race the old single-shot read could hit.
meson-build.sh: wire src/tools and each build profile's controller
subdir into the isolated repo-mirror the E2E tests run against, and
export XCEADMIN_BIN explicitly, so these live tests actually find real
binaries instead of always skipping.
Verified: xceadmin suite 288/288 (incl. both tests in this file);
controller suite 1220/1222 (only the pre-existing bug-1561 flake).
Updated admin-config-tool design.md and roadmap.md to mark the
dispatch-gate and redirect-wiring gaps RESOLVED, matching this test's
new assertions and the live evidence.

xce_sched_core_load_snapshot() left every restored worker's resInUse
(and core->sharedInUse) at zero -- zarray_init() in the workers-
restoration block clears them, and nothing re-summed against the
restored job allocations. A caller inspecting worker/resource state
between a snapshot load and the first scheduling session (e.g. the
REPL's `info worker` before the first `step`) saw a misleadingly empty
"used" total for jobs already known to be RUNNING. Added one
sched_account_jobs(core) call after workers/jobs are restored -- a
correct idempotent-from-zero re-derivation using the same
sched_charge_account() chain the next real session would use anyway.
Must not be called again without an intervening reset (accumulates,
does not assign) -- verified no such double-call exists in this change.

A JOB_EXITED status could mean either a deliberate, expected termination
(worker_signal_callback() only ever sends SIGTERM/SIGKILL to cancel/
force-kill a job) or a genuine unexpected crash signal. Both logged at
ERROR, drowning real crashes in expected-cancellation noise. Added
job_exit_log_level(): exit_code == 128+SIGTERM/SIGKILL logs at INFO
(matching process_exit_callback()'s existing plain-INFO treatment for
the same case), anything else stays ERROR. Verified: worker test suite

the no-root worker binary deploy-ha.sh/the xce-deploy-ha skill needs
whenever no real systemd manager is present (the common sandbox case).
/xce-build worker alone left it unbuilt, so deploy-ha.sh silently
soft-skipped generating start-worker.sh. Verified: xcecd_virtual now

apply_committed_entry() (persist.c), the single seam that applies every
committed WAL entry, only ever fired the generic HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE
for job-state changes -- HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_START/JOB_EXIT were
permanently dead code, since job.c only ever fires them at
HOOK_BEFORE_EVENT (for WAL-append purposes). This left sched_job_start_
fun/sched_job_exit_fun (sched.c) and apiserver_job_start_fun/
apiserver_job_exit_fun (apiserver.c) unreachable, and the Go apiserver's
already-wired OnJobFinished handler permanently starved of data -- a
finished job's state could stay stuck (e.g. showing RUN) in the
scheduler's own view and the apiserver never learned a job finished.
The wire format was already enriched by bug-1697/bug-1689 with the
pidinfo/exit_info data these hooks need, so this closes the gap rather
than requiring new wire work. WAL_JOB_FINISH now fires
HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_EXIT; WAL_JOB_START now fires HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_START,
gated on a call-scoped decode flag rather than the transition result
(WAL_JOB_START applies as a no-op duplicate for every real job in
production per bug-1697, so gating on the transition result would make
it dead code again). WAL_JOB_FAIL -> HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_FAIL has the same
gap and is left as a follow-up.
Also includes this investigation's supporting changes: a DEBUG3 log-
retention bump (main.c, both controller and scheduler) so race-condition
evidence survives a live burst without rotating out, and DEBUG3-gated
diagnostic trace logging at the two points a job-update notification
can fire or silently drop (job.c, sched.c).
Live-verified end to end on a real deployed cluster: scheduler-side
sched_job_state_change now fires for RUN and EXIT states, and the
apiserver's OnJobFinished -- previously never invoked in production --
now correctly updates job status on completion.

vtask_enq() published a task onto the shared dispatch queue via
dataq_enq() before finishing its own initialization (task->owner) -- a
concurrent vcpu could dequeue, run, and free the task before the

3 controllers under a heavy burst-array-job HA workload. Moved

Task 4.5: scheduler dimension-4 field-completeness audit run against the
finished implementation -- clean, no undocumented gap. Corrects the one
remaining stale premise in snapshot.c's "internal_state contents" comment
(claimed job->allocs/accounts were still unrestored; they are now, per
task 2.2) while preserving its still-valid sharedInUse/resInUse rationale.

Task 4.2: extend test_e2e_original_motivation_long_replay with PREEXIST_ID
(job 70013, dedicated worker worker-e2e-pre) -- a job submitted,
live-dispatched, and confirmed RUN entirely before sched_record_start(),
so its dispatch decision can never appear in the replay stream. Proves
its "used=9.00" resource contribution is correct starting from the very
first replayed round, recoverable only via snapshot-load allocation
restoration (tasks 2.1/2.2), not replay-based reconciliation -- the
complementary case to the file's existing ANCHOR_ID scenario.
Completes and fixes a pre-existing uncommitted WIP addendum to this file:
removed a redundant enqueue_queue_update() call that was masking a
genuine, unrelated latent bug in core_upsert_queue() (rtti makeString()
pointer freed via plain free(), same class as bug-1503/bug-1600) --
noted in tasks.md's Implementation Notes as a follow-up, not fixed here
(test-only task boundary).
Verified via fault injection: gating snapshot_load.c's allocation
restore reproduces the exact pre-fix failure at this test's new
assertion, then cleanly reverts.

Task 4.1: new test proving a snapshot-restored PENDING job (valid
resreq) reaches the real, live sched_allocator() thread's
sched_make_allocation() entry point without crashing -- the exact
bug-1569-class failure task 1.2 closed for the snapshot-load path.
New file (not an extension of test_snapshot_save_load.c) since driving
the real allocator needs scheduler.c's full dependency closure, too
heavy for that file's deliberately lean core-only TU. Follows the
already-established pattern from test_scheduler_connect.c /
test_scheduler_backpressure.c / test_scheduler_dispatch_commit.c: link
the real scheduler.c, wrap xcecli_start/xcecli_join, start a real
sched_init(), feed jobs directly into core.jbuf to drive the live
allocator thread. Wired into meson.build as a new executable/test.
Verified with two fault-injection experiments (reverted after):
disabling task 1.2's schedobj construction call makes this test fail
cleanly via its own assertion; going further and removing that
assertion reproduces a genuine ASAN-caught SEGV in the real allocator
path -- concrete proof this test would have caught bug-1569's failure
shape. Both polling loops (jbuf drain, decision wait) are bounded
(2s timeout, 5ms poll) -- no hang risk; confirmed non-flaky across 10
consecutive runs.
Requirements: 2.2, 2.4
Task 3.2: adds test_snapshot_load_leaves_running_job_without_allocation_at_zero_resinuse,
covering the specific Req 3.5 scenario the existing PENDING-job test didn't
-- a RUNNING job whose allocation was never captured (simulating a
pre-feature-saved snapshot). With a real worker/resource present (making
the assertion non-vacuous), confirms: load succeeds with no error,
job->schedobj is still valid (task 1.2, independent of allocation data),
job->allocs/accounts stay NULL, and resInUse correctly reads 0.0 via the
real accounting chain -- a clean degrade, no special-casing, matching
today's pre-feature behavior exactly.
Test-only task; no production code changed. Per this spec's own
"pre-release product" scope note, no archived legacy snapshot file is
needed as a fixture -- a freshly-built wire job with allocs unset
exercises the identical code path.
Requirements: 3.5
Task 3.1: comprehensive integration test proving tasks 1.1/1.2/2.1/2.2
work together end to end -- a RUNNING job (multi-host, multi-resource,
plus a genuine shared-resource-pool component) and a PENDING job saved
together and loaded into a second, independent core. Asserts:
- Both jobs get a valid, non-NULL schedobj in the restored core.
- The running job's allocation/accounting content-match the source,
including the shared-pool component.
- Worker resInUse and core sharedInUse, computed via the real
sched_charge_account() chain (white-box included from resource.c,
following the established test_resource_accounting.c/test.c
link-only-stub convention), match exactly between source and
restored cores -- the actual proof of Req 1.2/1.3, not just that
job->accounts holds the right values.
- Destroying the source core's job list afterward does not corrupt or
crash the restored core (Req 1.4's independence guarantee exercised
via real teardown, not just pointer-distinctness checks).
Test-only task; no production code changed. Independently verified via
a live RED/GREEN toggle against task 2.2's load-side restoration block.
Requirements: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 2.1, 2.3, 2.4
Task 2.2: xce_sched_core_load_snapshot() now restores job->allocs via
dup_job_alloc() (never aliasing the wire job's own copy, since it
belongs to a const, potentially-shared snapshot struct) and rebuilds
job->accounts via the existing make_job_account(), positioned right
after task 1.2's schedobj construction and before sched_add_job().
Independent of resreq parse success -- not nested inside that guard.
Absent allocation data is the normal case: no WARN, no error.
New tests prove a full cross-core round trip (save core_a, load into
independent core_b): restored allocs/accounts content-match the
source, with three-way pointer independence (restored vs source-core
vs saved-wire) proving the deep-copy guarantee end to end. A companion
test confirms a job with no allocation loads cleanly.
Note: this task's implementation was completed directly after two
implementer subagent dispatches hit transient API interruptions; one
auto-resumed and reported a false READY_FOR_REVIEW (claiming 9/9
passing tests while the actual production code was never written,
only the test file). Caught by fresh-evidence verification before
trusting the report -- confirmed via an independent build+test run
showing a genuine failure, then fixed and re-verified by an
independent reviewer who reproduced RED-to-GREEN itself.
Requirements: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 3.5
Task 2.1: build_wire_job() now deep-copies job->allocs into the wire
job's already-existing allocs field via dup_job_alloc() (task 1.1) when
the live job has an allocation, leaving it unset otherwise -- matching
how every other optional field in this function is handled. Never
aliases job->allocs.
New tests prove: a running job with a multi-host allocation saves with
matching content (host names, resource values) and a pointer distinct
from the live job's own allocation; a job with no allocation saves with
the wire field left NULL, no error.
Requirements: 1.1
Task 1.2: snapshot_load.c gains a local, static field-for-field port of
core_events.c's core_build_schedobj()/core_build_primary_schedobj()/
core_build_compound_schedobj()/core_build_alter_schedobj() (the bug-1569
fix for the JOBS_PUSH path). Every job restored from a snapshot whose
resreq parsed successfully now gets a valid, non-NULL job->schedobj,
closing the same NULL-deref crash class for the snapshot-load path.
Guarded on job->resreq != NULL so the pre-existing, unrelated
resreq-parse-failure path is untouched (still leaves schedobj NULL,
same as today -- not fixed here, per design.md's documented boundary).
New tests prove non-NULL schedobj with correct tag/union member for
primary, compound, and alter resource requests, plus a regression test
confirming the parse-failure path's behavior is unchanged.
Requirements: 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4
Task 1.1: new deep-copy for xce_job_alloc_t composed from existing
make_alloc/make_host_alloc/make_job_alloc, explicitly preserving each
allocation's original from/duration rather than accepting make_alloc's
own time(NULL) stamp. TDD: 6 new unit tests (single-host, multi-host,
multi-resource-per-host, shared-resource-pool, independence-after-free,
from/duration fidelity), all passing under ASAN.
Also logs bug-1723 (pre-existing, unrelated leak in two bug-1722 test
fixtures, confirmed via git-stash A/B rebuild to be byte-for-byte
identical before and after this change) -- documentation only, not fixed
here.
Requirements: 1.1, 1.4
make_job_account() allocates account->accounts via calloc(1,
sizeof(xce_host_account_t*)) -- room for exactly 1 host pointer -- but
its own loop writes account->accounts[i] for i up to jalloc->nhosts-1,
overflowing the heap allocation for any job spanning more than one
host. Already reachable from live production dispatch (core_events.c,
schedobj.c, scheduler.c) for any multi-host job -- found while
verifying viability of a proposed scheduler snapshot-allocation-capture
fix, not from a user report.
Sibling function make_host_allocs() has the identical bug shape
(calloc(1, ...) vs a loop writing up to nhosts-1); every current call
site happens to pass nhosts=1 so it has never actually overflowed in
production, but it's the same live footgun in a public exported
helper. Fixed alongside since it's the identical bug class in the same
file.
New test_xcealloc.c drives a 2-host allocation through both functions,
reproducing the exact ASAN heap-buffer-overflow at xcealloc.c:188
pre-fix (RED), passing post-fix (GREEN). Both calloc(1, ...) sites
changed to size the allocation by the actual host count.
Full regression: libxce 303/303 (was 301, +2 new), scheduler 53/54 (1
pre-existing unrelated bug-1560 flake), controller 1211/1213 (2
pre-existing unrelated bug-1561 overlayfs flakes) -- zero new
failures.

Once bug-1700/1701's server-side redirect fix landed, xceadmin scheduler
record status/start/stop against a standby correctly redirects to the
primary -- but the redirected request can still transiently fail if that
node is mid-(re-)election (-10013 E_XCE_NOT_READY, expected/normal right
after a redirect on a freshly-booted or just-failed-over cluster) or if
the scheduler connection was mid-reconnect (schedadminreplymsg{ok=false,
error="scheduler disconnected"}, a different, non-numeric signaling path
via bug-1693's disconnect-detection mechanism).
bug-1713: _send_admin_request() wraps the request/redirect/decode cycle
in a bounded retry loop, re-running follow_redirects() FROM SCRATCH each
attempt (not a bare resend to the same host:port) so a later attempt can
discover a newly-settled or different primary.
bug-1715: extends the same retry loop to the second, differently-signaled
transient family -- checks admin_reply.error against a module-level
frozenset of known-transient reason strings.

WORKERS_PUSH event replayed. core_apply_worker_resvals()'s per-resval
loop only guarded against nv==NULL/nv->name==NULL; a resval entry with
a NULL nv->val (a legitimate "no update this round" marker some
producers send) fell through and overwrote the worker's existing good
value with nothing, instead of being skipped -- same defensive pattern
already used elsewhere in this function, just missing here. A related
count-doubling gap in the same event path is fixed by switching an
iteration bound from `.count` to `.caps`.

Chaotic HA soak (post-bug-1695) reported committed_job_loss every
round. raft_cb_become_leader() computed the promotion WAL-truncation
floor and evaluated the full promotion-eligibility gate (durable_floor/
recovery_truncated/apply_verdict) BEFORE cluster_init_phase2() -- the
only call that runs persist_recover() on this process's first-ever
boot. Those fields all come from persist_recover(); read before it
runs, a freshly persist_init()'d struct reports durable_lsn=0, making
the eligibility gate wrongly judge a genuinely corrupt/divergent node
ELIGIBLE. Unreachable before bug-1695's fix (a restarted node's stale
term previously always made it defer to a peer instead of re-electing
on the same boot with real data at stake) -- bug-1695 correctly
restored real re-election on restart and newly exposed this
pre-existing boot-ordering flaw.
Reordered raft_cb_become_leader() so cluster_init_phase2()/
persist_recover() runs before the eligibility gate and truncation-floor
computation. Split the pure vote-derived safe_committed_lsn computation
(reads only ha->elect_ctx, safe pre-recovery) from the truncation-floor
computation (needs post-recovery persist state) -- the former stays
early, the latter moves to run after phase2. New regression test
CRC-corrupts a real on-disk WAL and confirms first-boot promotion now
correctly refuses instead of destroying committed data.

xceadmin scheduler record status/start/stop against a standby failed
with the bare "controller returned status -10014" (E_XCE_STANDBY) with
no redirect, forcing the caller to guess the primary manually.
bug-1700: myreq_handler's generic ha_dispatch_gate rejection path
(cluster.c) now calls fill_redirect_reply() when rc == -XCE_ERR_STANDBY,
mirroring the same helper OPCode_join's handler already uses --
-XCE_ERR_NOT_READY (CTRL_INIT/CTRL_ELECTING, no settled primary to
redirect to) is deliberately excluded. Landing this alone had zero
observable effect live: ha_state_t.primary_host/primary_port were never
written by any production path on a standby (only test fixtures set
them) -- fill_redirect_reply() always saw an empty/zero redirect target
in a real deployment.
bug-1701: closes that data gap with a pure local lookup, no new wire
field. handle_ctrlhello() (config_repl.c) now resolves the ctrlhello
sender's name against this node's own statically-known peers_cfg
(parsed once from --peers at boot) and populates primary_host/port at
the exact moment a standby first learns who primary is.
Live-verified end to end on a fresh 3-node cluster: xceadmin scheduler
record status against any standby now prints "redirected: <standby> ->
<primary>" and returns the real status, confirmed again after a
re-election changed which node was primary.

dispatch_a_job_() synchronously sets state=JOB_STAT_RUN at dispatch time
(scheduler-dispatch-commit task 3.1's deliberate no-worker-ack-wait
semantic). By the time the worker's later WAL_JOB_START fact commits,
apply_job_update_transition() sees state already == RUN and returns
NOOP_DUPLICATE instead of APPLIED -- so bug-1687's start_time/pidinfo
decode/adopt block, gated on result==APPLIED, could never run for any
job. start_time (and consequently run_time) stayed 0 forever. Same bug
class already fixed for WAL_JOB_RUSAGE/CKPT/PREASON in this identical
apply function; WAL_JOB_START was missed because bug-1687 predated the
dispatch-time RUN semantic change.
Moves start_time to dispatch-owned: dispatch_a_job_() now stamps
job.start_time alongside state=RUN, under the same write lock.
WAL_JOB_DISPATCH gains a flag-gated (WAL_JOB_DISPATCH_HAS_START_TIME_FLAG)
start_time field so it survives replay/restart; both apply seams
(apply_committed_entry, apply_wal_entry) and restore_job_dispatch_state
decode it when present, falling through to the old alloc-only shape
otherwise. WAL_JOB_START's own now-permanently-dead start_time write is
removed; pidinfo adoption made unconditional to match.

start.sh/start-worker.sh/start-scheduler.sh/start-apiserver.sh had no
check for an already-running instance, so re-running start-all.sh (or
a generated per-component script) against a still-live deploy silently
spawned a full duplicate process set under the identical --myname/
--peers/ports. Combined with SO_REUSEPORT on every listening socket
(src/lib/netio.c), the duplicate's bind()/listen() succeeded instead
of failing loudly, so two live controllers per node ended up voting
into the same Raft group with independently diverged term/log state --
a split-brain that surfaced as non-converging elections, a bouncing
redirect chain, and ctrlstatus reporting an unknown primary for 40+
seconds on a freshly deployed cluster.
Each generated launcher now writes a pidfile under $TOP/run/ and
refuses to start if a live process already owns it, verified via
/proc/<pid>/cmdline identity match (not just liveness) to avoid a
PID-reuse false positive. start-all.sh preflights all expected
pidfiles before launching anything, failing fast and loud instead of
partially duplicating some nodes. Each script's final invocation now
uses exec so the pidfile records the daemon's own PID directly, which
also collapses the previous wrapper+child two-process-per-component
layout into one process. cleanup.sh clears stale pidfiles for hygiene.
Verified live in-sandbox: normal start-all.sh still elects a primary
and starts all 6 components; a second start-all.sh run against the
same live deploy now refuses cleanly with all 6 already-running
components identified, process count unchanged.

Adds test_sim_verify_no_false_mismatch_across_round_separated_dispatch:
a job's DISPATCH decision at round 1, RUN-state confirmation event at
round 4, --sim-verify enabled throughout, asserting zero mismatches.
Fixture correctly accounts for a mechanically-verified system behavior:
sim mode's live picker (sim_picker_thread_fn/builtin_fcfs) never emits
on_dispatch() -- it unconditionally re-PENDs every candidate each round,
including a job reconciliation already captured, until the job's
recorded JOB_STATE_CHANGE event removes it from pendJobs. The fixture
includes a matching PEND(jobid) entry at each intervening round to match
this reality, not an assumption.

Adds test_contention_capacity_check_correct_across_multi_round_dispatch_confirm_gap:
a worker at exact capacity (jobs A=8.0 + C=2.0 against 10.0 capacity), with
each job's RUN-state confirmation landing several rounds after its DISPATCH
decision (round 1 dispatch, round 4/5 confirmation, deliberately different
gaps). Drives the real sched_check_host_satisfy() admission check at three
checkpoints, proving Requirement 1 (1.1-1.4) at the outcome level -- a
capacity check, not just a resInUse display value -- per
scheduler-driver-equivalence.md's explicit contention-fixture discipline.
Round 1 review caught three new xce_sched_sim_driver_t fixtures declared
stack-local, amplifying an already-documented (bug-1598, bug-1632)
stack-use-after-return class from the never-joined picker thread
sched_sim_driver_run() spawns. Fixed by declaring them static (safe: each
is written by exactly one call site, and sched_sim_driver_start() memsets
the struct first) -- independently confirmed via 3 full-suite runs with
zero ASAN hits.

Adds 3 tests proving guarantees that must hold under the widened
capture-eligibility gate: an already-captured job is never re-searched
or re-captured regardless of state (test_reconcile_still_skips_already_
captured_job_regardless_of_state), a PEND job with no match this round
stays uncaptured and remains eligible next round (test_reconcile_
no_match_leaves_pend_job_uncaptured_and_retries), and several
simultaneously outstanding jobs are captured independently with zero
cross-job interference (test_reconcile_multiple_jobs_captured_
independently_across_different_rounds).
Required making the shared add_job() fixture helper tolerant of -EEXIST
on a repeated queue registration (needed for the multi-job test, the
first in this file to call add_job() twice against the same core) --
traced to kvtab_add()'s narrowly-scoped -EEXIST return, provably a
no-op for all 11 pre-existing single-add_job()-call tests.

Adds test_captured_pend_job_excluded_from_resinuse_until_run: drives a
job captured while still PEND through sched_account_jobs() and confirms
its resource-in-use contribution is zero; transitions the same job to
RUN and confirms sched_account_jobs() now includes its exact captured
allocation, with no second reconciliation call in between -- proving the
nonzero value comes from the earlier capture, not a fresh one.
Required promoting the file's sched_account_jobs() from a no-op stub to
a real reimplementation (verbatim body, matching the exact precedent
already established in test_sim_contention_parity.c and
test_sim_round_boundary_reconciliation.c) plus a resource.c white-box

Widens sim_reconcile_unaccounted_jobs()'s trigger gate in sim_loop.c: removes
!JOB_IS_RUN(job->state) so a job's recorded DISPATCH decision is captured as
soon as the replay reaches the round it occurred in, regardless of the job's
current state -- closing bug-1611/bug-1613's residual (a job whose RUN
confirmation lands in a later round than its dispatch decision, the realistic
case under any real dispatch-to-confirmation latency, was never reconciled).
sched_account_jobs()'s own unmodified JOB_IS_RUN charging gate continues to
defer actual resource-in-use accounting until the job genuinely transitions
to RUN -- no other line in the match/capture/report path changes.
Replaces test_reconcile_skips_non_run_state_job (which asserted the bug as
correct behavior) with test_reconcile_captures_non_run_state_job_when_dispatch_recorded,
proving the opposite for a PEND-state job. Adds the xce-test-rc-file-style
spec docs (requirements/design/research/tasks) for this feature.

_live_e2e_common.py's CONTROLLER_CANDIDATES/XCEADMIN_CANDIDATES only ever
resolved to the three default profile-dir names (xce.build, build.release,
build.dbg), with no way to point the live E2E suite at a binary built to a
custom/explicit build dir. Adds XCE_CONTROLLER_BIN/XCEADMIN_BIN env-var
overrides via a new resolve_binary_candidates() helper -- when set, the
override becomes the sole candidate; otherwise the existing three-name
fallback list is unchanged. Mirrors the ${XCE_CONTROLLER_BIN:-default}
convention already used by clean_failover_preservation.sh/run-ha-soak.sh.
Skip messages in both live E2E test files now mention the override.
TDD: 4 new unit tests in test_live_e2e_common.py (no override, empty
override, override-becomes-sole-candidate, and an end-to-end reload proving
the real module constants respect their env vars). Full xceadmin suite
(288 tests) confirmed unaffected: 287 pass, 1 pre-existing unrelated

Now that xce_test auto-loads a personal rc file at startup (this spec),
harden the three existing non-interactive xce_test callers so a future
developer's ~/.config/xce_test/rc can never silently affect a CI/soak run:
run-ha-soak.sh, run-resource-verify.sh, and clean_failover_preservation.sh
all now pass --norc to their xtest() invocation. No behavior change today
(no rc file exists in this environment yet, per xce-test-rc-file task 3.3's
own verification) -- this is forward-looking reproducibility hardening.
Independently re-verified end-to-end: run-ha-soak.sh (--sequential, 2
rounds, zero job loss) and run-resource-verify.sh (1 resource, 3 layers,
zero mismatches) both PASS unchanged with --norc added.
clean_failover_preservation.sh could not be run in this sandbox -- its
DATADIR precondition (<repo>/ha/data/cluster.bin + certs) was deleted by an
unrelated earlier commit (ee8473bd, admin-config-tool) and never restored;
confirmed via git history this is pre-existing and unrelated to this edit
(the precondition check runs before xtest() and fails identically on the
unmodified script). Logged as bug-1721, not fixed here -- out of this

Extends test_rcfile_integration.sh with 2 scenarios proving Requirements
3.1-3.4: a failing rc-file command in piped/scripted mode aborts before
any of the piped script's own commands run, exiting nonzero; the same
failing command in an interactive session still reports the failure,
continues executing the rc file's remaining lines, and reaches the normal
prompt -- while still carrying the session's sticky nonzero exit-code
verdict (g_session_failed is never cleared, matching how any other
failing-command-then-quit interactive session already behaves).

Adds test_rcfile_integration.sh, mirroring clean_failover_preservation.sh's
shell-driven black-box pattern against the real built xce_test binary:
- a valid rc file's set masters override takes effect in both a piped run
and a genuine pty-driven interactive run, before the normal session begins
- --norc leaves the default masters value untouched with the same rc file
present

Adds the integration call site in main(), between g_continue_on_error's
computation and the read loop: unless --norc is given, resolve the rc-file
path and load it through preprocess_and_run (the same command-execution
path used for typed/piped input). A NULL path (no XDG/HOME) or missing
file falls through silently to the read loop. A failing rc-file command
under scripted/piped abort-on-first-failure mode short-circuits straight
to the existing g_session_failed exit-code convention, never entering the
read loop -- so a piped script's own commands never run after an rc-file
failure. Verified end-to-end against the built binary, including a real
pty for the interactive path, in both the failure and success cases.

Adds rcfile_load(path, runner) to rcfile.c/rcfile.h: reads lines with
getline() (no fixed-size buffer, so a long line like a multi-peer
`set masters ...` can never be silently truncated or split), strips the
trailing newline, invokes the caller-supplied runner once per line, and
stops at the first nonzero runner return, propagating that value. A missing
rc file is a silent no-op; any other open failure prints one stderr warning
and returns 0.
Found during GREEN: fopen() succeeds on a directory path on this platform,
so the EISDIR failure only surfaces on the first getline() call (ferror(f)
set) -- added a post-loop ferror() check to catch it (bug-1716).
5 new unit tests (11 total with task 1.1): ENOENT-silent, per-line-in-order
with newline stripped, stop-on-nonzero with exact propagation, non-ENOENT
open-failure warning, and a >4KB single line proving no truncation/split.

when set and non-empty, else $HOME/.config/xce_test/rc, else NULL. Standalone
libc-only module mirroring the configcompare.c pattern; wired into xce_test_src
and controller_unit_test_src, registered in controller_test.c's Unity runner.
6 unit tests in test_rcfile.c cover all XDG/HOME combinations plus a dedicated
env-var save/restore isolation test, addressing the cross-test leak risk found
during design review (controller_unit_test runs 80+ test files in one process).

design fixes from validation: getline()-based line reading (task 1.2, avoids
truncating long rc-file lines) and the env-isolation requirement above.

Found via the mandatory live HA chaotic soak for this session's controller
audit campaign -- unrelated to any of the 9 audit fixes (bug-1684/1687/
1689/1690/1691/1692/1693/1694), all in ha.c/persist.c/job.c/cluster.c/
sched.c/worker.c; this is in myapp.c, untouched by any of them.
myapp_run()'s bootstrap "is a leader already known" check had a fallback
`c.ha.raft.term > 0` meant to detect genuine new raft activity processed
during the startup-stagger nap. But ha_restore_term() loads ha->term from
disk BEFORE this check runs, on every boot -- and Raft terms only ever
increase, never reset. So `raft.term > 0` is trivially true on every
restart for the rest of the cluster's on-disk lifetime, once it has ever
held one election, regardless of whether any leader is currently
reachable. Live-reproduced: every node, on every restart after the
cluster's first election, unconditionally skipped ha_start_election_async
forever -- no node could ever re-assert leadership through a real
election again. bug-1477's existing cluster_init_phase2 retry loop kept
firing correctly (confirmed in the reproduction logs) but could never
succeed, since the deeper cause -- no election ever runs to produce a
live primary to push config from -- was never addressed by that fix.
Fixed by snapshotting `term_at_boot` right after ha_restore_term()/
ha_init_raft() seed the term, strictly before the stagger nap, and
comparing `raft.term > term_at_boot` instead of `raft.term > 0` -- only a
term that has genuinely ADVANCED during this boot cycle (real vote/
heartbeat traffic processed) counts as evidence a leader is known. The
decision was extracted into a new, unit-testable myapp_leader_already_known()
(startup_validation.c, since controller_unit_test deliberately excludes
myapp.c/main.c). voted_for_name/vft==cur and primary_ctrl_fd>=0 checks
are unchanged.
7 new tests in test_ha_startup.c; RED/GREEN independently verified.
Rigorous A/B live-soak proof (identical 6-round --chaotic run, fixed vs
git-stashed-back-to-original): baseline showed term frozen for the whole
run and zero election activity on any non-primary node; fixed run showed
term genuinely progressing and ctrl-2 achieving a real, log-verified
CTRL_PRIMARY transition via a won PreVote round -- proof a node other
than the original primary can now take over, which was structurally
impossible before. Full controller suite: 1191 tests, 2 failures -- both
the pre-existing, unrelated bug-1561 overlayfs sandbox flake.
Residual, NOT independently verified yet (flagged honestly, not fixed
here): the fixed run's chaotic verdict showed committed_job_loss=6
(baseline 0) -- traced via waldump to one jobid missing from every node's
WAL, at the cold-boot window before round 1. Resembles the already-fixed
bug-1487 false-positive class (apply-pump-lag racing verify_classify's
expect-job check) but the reported mechanism doesn't perfectly match
(bug-1487's job was present-in-WAL/not-yet-visible; this one is described
as absent from every WAL entirely) -- needs independent re-verification
before being dismissed, tracked as a follow-up.

Last of the 9 confirmed findings from the /xce-audit-invariants controller
pass. checkpoint_task_fn was registered directly as a delaymgr entry and
ran its full blocking body inline: checkpoint marker pwrite+fdatasync,
write_snapshot()'s genuinely unbounded per-entity walk (scales with
cluster state size) held under apply_pump_lock, WAL trim, and snapshot
rotation/unlink -- all on the same thread that drives heartbeats/election
timeouts. Unlike every other delaymgr operation (snapshot send,
config-push, reconnect, catch-up), checkpoint had no offload mechanism
at all -- the one gap left from the raft-drive-async hardening pass.
Design: full offload via the SlowLane (slowlane_submit), default ON --
NOT the vtask pool. persist_apply_pump_run() already holds apply_pump_lock
across its own per-entry walk while running ON the vtask pool
(VTASK_LIVE_BLOCK); putting checkpoint's unbounded, lock-held
write_snapshot() on that same pool risked starving it, exactly what
ha-async-io.md's own thread-role table warns against. The SlowLane is
the actual established pattern for this I/O class (push_config_transport_only,
the snapshot-send path, catchup_lane_fn, demotion_lane_fn all dispatch
there) -- and persist_checkpoint() already runs on the slow lane in
production TODAY via ha_snapshot_do_send() -> snapshot_lane_fn, so
apply_pump_lock's acquisition from a slow-lane thread is proven-safe,
exercised daily, not new surface. Unlike catchup/demotion (which stay
flag-gated OFF for an unrelated, still-not-root-caused hang, bug-1429),
checkpoint's new flag defaults ON given this reuses an already-proven
code path. Inline-fallback + WARN only on a genuine slowlane_submit
failure (not -EAGAIN/-EEXIST, both non-failures) -- never silently drops
a scheduled checkpoint.
New test_persist_checkpoint_offload.c (3 tests). RED-phase forced the
pre-fix always-inline path: the suite never printed a single result and
had to be killed, proving the test genuinely detects the violation, not
a tautology. GREEN: all 3 pass. Full suite: 1184 tests, 2 failures --
both the pre-existing, unrelated bug-1561 overlayfs sandbox flake
(exact signature match). No live HA soak was run for this specific fix
in isolation (explicitly scoped out, not hidden) -- the mandatory
live-soak proof for this whole audit campaign covers it next.
This closes the last of the 9 confirmed findings from the controller
audit (bug-1684, bug-1687/1689/1690/1691/1692, bug-1693, bug-1694).

Violates this project's own recorded Decision Log entry: "No client
reply-wait timeout as a fix for a hung request -- fail loud at the real
transport/source instead of masking with a deadline backstop."
OPCode_schedAdmin (cluster.c) and on_fetchfile (job.c, the worker proxy
-- cluster.c's own comment says schedAdmin "mirrors on_fetchfile's proxy
pattern", confirming one shared design mistake, not two independent
bugs) both blocked on a multi-second pthread_cond_timedwait, replying
"timeout" on expiry. handle_scheduler_leave()/handle_worker_leave() (the
actual disconnect handlers) only nulled the endpoint pointer -- neither
ever signaled the pending waiter, so a mid-wait disconnect was invisible
until the deadline lapsed. The timeout was the ONLY failure-detection
mechanism, exactly what the decision forbids.
Both sites already had a working signal function on their success path
(schedadmin_signal(), fetchfile_signal()) -- just never wired to the
disconnect handlers. Fixed by calling them from
handle_scheduler_leave()/handle_worker_leave() with a distinguishable
-ECONNRESET outcome, so the waiter wakes immediately on disconnect
instead of only on the deadline. Timeouts kept as defensive backstops
for a genuinely wedged peer that never disconnects cleanly either --
this fix is about not relying SOLELY on the timeout, not removing it.
schedadmin_signal_disconnect() must be called BEFORE handle_scheduler_leave()
acquires c->sched.lock -- the dispatch wait holds that same lock for its
entire duration, so signaling after acquiring it would deadlock.
Found by an /xce-audit-invariants controller pass (Decision Log fidelity
dimension). New test_fetchfile_disconnect.c plus extensions to
test_sched_admin_dispatch.c/test_sched_worker_change.c; RED/GREEN
independently verified against real elapsed-time assertions (pre-fix:
5001ms full-timeout wait; post-fix: <1s immediate wake). Full controller
suite: 1181 tests, 2 failures -- both the pre-existing, unrelated

Last of the five field-parity gaps from the original audit (bug-1678,
bug-1687, bug-1689, bug-1690, bug-1691). set_preason()/clear_preason()
set job.pend_reasons (host/resource-based pending-job explanations), but
persist_job_hook_fun's default: arm only ever captured {jobid, state}.
Neither apply seam restored pend_reasons after a restart.
Reuses the ALREADY-EXISTING JobPendReason/HostBasedReason/ResourceBasedReason
capnp structs -- no schema change needed, unlike bug-1690's WAL_JOB_RUSAGE.
Safety-checked against bug-1690's lesson (RTTI/makeString()-backed fields
need merge-not-replace, not free-and-replace): pend_reasons is plain
malloc/strdup-backed throughout (erase_job_preason is FREEUP()-only,
add_host_preason/add_res_preason use strdup()/calloc()), so a
straightforward free-and-replace is safe here, matching bug-1678/1687's
pattern instead.
New wrinkle beyond the four prior fixes: pend_reasons has a genuine CLEAR
operation, and "trailing bytes present or absent" can't distinguish a
legitimate clear from an old-format payload -- added an explicit presence
byte (0=cleared/adopt NULL, 1=capnp bytes follow), verified by two
dedicated "clear survives restart" tests.
11 new tests in test_wal_job_preason_fact.c; RED/GREEN independently
verified (7 genuine pre-fix failures, one test's own wrong premise about
capnp's garbage-byte behavior caught and corrected during RED/GREEN
iteration). Full controller suite: 1178 tests, 2 failures -- both the
pre-existing, unrelated bug-1561 overlayfs sandbox flake. No ASAN findings.
This closes the field-complete apply parity invariant class the
xce-audit-invariants controller dimension 7 was added for.

Same class as bug-1678/1687/1689/1690: on_job_ckpt() sets job.ckptinfo
(a plain char*, xstring-backed via makeString()) but is purely hook-driven
-- persist_job_hook_fun's default: arm only ever captured {jobid, state}
for WAL_JOB_CKPT. Neither apply seam restored ckptinfo after a restart.
Simplest of the five field-parity fixes: ckptinfo is a bare string, so no
capnp struct is needed -- mirrors WAL_QUEUE_CTRL's existing NUL-terminated-
string-after-header wire shape instead. Adoption is unconditional (not
gated on a state transition), matching bug-1690's precedent: a checkpoint
report never changes job.state. restore_job_ckpt_state() releases the
prior value via dereference() (the correct RTTI verb for an xstring), not
free().
Found by an /xce-audit-invariants controller pass (field-complete apply
parity dimension) -- the last of five sibling gaps found together
(bug-1678, bug-1687, bug-1689, bug-1690, this one). 7 new tests in
test_wal_job_ckpt_fact.c; RED/GREEN independently verified (5 genuine
pre-fix failures, 2 backward-compat tests correctly passed unchanged).
Full controller suite: 1167 tests, 2 failures -- both the pre-existing,
unrelated bug-1561 overlayfs sandbox flake. No ASAN findings.

Same class as bug-1678/1687/1689: the WAL fact for WAL_JOB_RUSAGE only
carried {jobid, state}, so job.run_usage (client-reported per-host
CPU/mem usage) was never restored on either apply seam after a restart.
Unlike the prior three, xce_job_runusage_t/xce_host_runusage_t had no
existing Cap'n Proto mapping -- a genuine new schema addition
(HostRunusage/JobRunusage in controller.capnp, mirroring JobPendReason's
List(NestedStruct)+$C.maplistcount style), verified against the real
struct definitions in types.h, codegen confirmed via nm on the built
binary rather than assumed.
Two deliberate deviations from the established precedent, found by
reading the real code rather than copying the pattern blindly:
1. Adoption is unconditional, not gated on a state transition -- a
rusage report almost never changes job.state (repeat reports keep
state at RUN), so gating on JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED like START/FINISH/
DISPATCH do would make the fix dead code for the realistic case.
2. Merge, not free-and-replace. update_host_runusage() builds run_usage
with host_name sourced from makeString() -- an RTTI-managed pointer,
not malloc() -- and the primary's own live apply pump re-applies every
fact it just wrote. A naive free_JobRunusage_ptr()-then-adopt (matching
the prior three fixes exactly) would free() a non-malloc'd pointer on
the very first live rusage report for a new host -- guaranteed heap
corruption. Fixed with merge_job_runusage(): existing hosts get
scalar-only in-place updates (host_name pointer never touched), only
genuinely new hosts adopt their freshly-decoded (safe, malloc'd)
host_name. Proved via a real makeString()-backed test asserting
pointer identity survives, not just value equality. job_destroy()
(src/lib/jobj.c) was found to have this identical latent mismatch,
pre-existing and independent of this fix -- flagged, not fixed here.
Found by an /xce-audit-invariants controller pass (field-complete apply
parity dimension). 8 new tests in test_wal_job_rusage_fact.c; RED/GREEN
independently verified. Full controller suite: 1160 tests, 2 failures --
both the pre-existing, unrelated bug-1561 overlayfs sandbox flake. No
ASAN/heap-corruption findings. Backward compatibility confirmed for
old-format bare-payload entries.
