Non-functional: a repo-wide audit of every xce_test consumer against the
xce-test-cli-ux spec's completed changes (confirmation prompts, joblist/
reslist format fixes, stream routing, join's maxmem default, qctrl/getconf
fixes) found zero functional breaks -- every script drives xce_test via
piped non-interactive stdin (Req 9.4 auto-skips confirmation prompts) and
either checks exit codes/structured markers or already redirects 2>&1.
Add a one-line comment at each of the three bare `join` (no -m) call
sites noting the default changed from a stale 64 bytes to the correct
64MB (bug-1557), for future-reader clarity -- harmless in all three since
none of these synthetic hosts are ever scheduled against.

The hand-written per-flag description explaining -n's <min>[,<max>]
format was dropped when task 3.5 moved the flag list to the generated
flagspec block (which only shows short/long/required/default, with no
room for a flag's value-format semantics). Restore the explanation as
prose in USAGE_JOBSUB_HEAD, following the same pattern already used by
resupdate's HEAD (-n/-v pairing, -t's conditional meaning).

Follow-up audit (requested: check other generated sources, specifically
packcc/PEG output) found the identical bug shape in the four PEG-parser
custom_targets: section_parser, rusage_parser, xce_resreq_parser, and
xce_select_parser each produce a .c + a paired .h (section.h, rusage.h,
xce_resreq.h, xce_select_peg.h), but libxce_src only referenced each
parser's [0] (.c) index. lib/resreq.c -- confirmed via a project-wide
grep to be the only consumer of any of these four headers -- had no
declared build-order dependency on any of the four codegen steps.
Fix: pass each of the four custom_targets unindexed into libxce_src,
same pattern as the capnp fix. No libxce_dep change needed here since
nothing outside src/lib/ consumes these headers.
A project-wide search confirms these, plus the capnp custom_target, are
the only multi-output C/H codegen steps in the whole build -- every other
custom_target() (xceadmin, apiserver, xcecli, autoscaler/providers)
produces a single Go-binary/stamp output with no equivalent hazard.
Verified: a third consecutive full from-scratch `./tools/xce-build.sh all
debug` build (1173/1173 targets) succeeded clean; a fresh `lib debug`
build plus the full lib test suite (313/313) passed; a fresh incremental
controller/ASAN rebuild passed 1331/1331 on a quiet re-run (its first,
concurrent-with-the-full-build run hit an unrelated, confirmed-flaky PTY
harness timing failure in test_smoke_launch_send_echo_capture_stdout_and_exit_code,
reproduced as system-load-induced, not caused by this change).

The previous fix (654c6e8c) only closed the missing-dependency-edge race
inside the libxce target itself. A live user report on a second
from-scratch `./tools/xce-build.sh all debug` run showed the same race
still hitting scheduler/src/sim_record.c and core_events.c, which reach
controller.capnp.h directly via a raw -Ilib include path with no
declared dependency on the codegen step at all.
Root cause: libxce_dep = declare_dependency(link_with: libxce) -- the
dependency object controller/worker/scheduler all consume uniformly --
only orders a consumer's LINK step after libxce is built; it never
propagated a build-order dependency on the capnp custom_target to a
consumer's own COMPILE steps.
Fix: add `sources: [gen_srcs]` to libxce_dep's declare_dependency() call.
This kwarg exists specifically for generated files that must be built
before any consumer of a dependency compiles, and since every component
already lists libxce_dep in its own dependencies, this one change
propagates the missing edge everywhere with no per-component changes.
Verified: two consecutive full from-scratch `./tools/xce-build.sh all
debug` builds (1173/1173 targets, the user's own exact repro command)
both succeeded with no retry; a subsequent incremental controller/ASAN
rebuild stayed clean (1331/1331 tests, 0 ASAN diagnostics).

libxce_src listed only gen_srcs[0] (controller.capnp.c) as a source of
the static_library('xce', ...) target, never controller.capnp.h -- which
several library files (utils.c and others) reach only via #include.
Ninja had no build edge forcing the capnp custom_target to finish before
those files compiled, so a from-scratch build could schedule them first,
intermittently failing with "controller.capnp.h: No such file or
directory". This is the same symptom recorded across 5+ prior recurrences
in buglog.json since 2026-07-16, previously worked around by retrying the
build rather than root-caused.
Fix: pass the whole gen_srcs custom_target (not gen_srcs[0]) into
libxce_src -- Meson still compiles only its .c output, but now orders the
entire target's build after both outputs are generated. Verified via two
consecutive from-scratch `xce-build.sh lib debug` builds (no retry
needed), the full lib test suite (313/313), and an incremental controller
asan rebuild (1331/1331, 0 ASAN diagnostics) to confirm no regression.

Add one black-box regression test proving process-level help, in-session

exercised together in one continuous session (context switches +
completion + help lookups), not just individually as each was already
covered by tasks 1.6/2.3/3.5. This closes the final task of the

Gates jobkill and shutdown unconditionally, qctrl only when action is
QUEUE_CLOSE/QUEUE_INACTIVE (not ACTIVE/OPEN), hostctrl only when
HOST_CLOSE (not OPEN), and upgradeconfig unconditionally -- exactly
Requirement 9.5's enumeration, with jstart/jfinish/jfail (worker
context) correctly untouched. Each gains a -y/--yes bypass flag via
flagspec_t; cmd_set gains -y/+y calling confirm_set_skip(). A decline
maps to a plain `return 0` (success-coded, distinct from a negative
failure return) per confirm.h's own documented contract -- this means
a declined destructive command inside a source'd file under `set -e`
won't trip abort-on-failure, a real but narrow interaction only
reachable when a human is actively declining; left for task 4.3 to

Routes all 26 blocking xcecli_* call sites across ~24 commands through
xcetest_run_interruptible(), wires xcetest_set_active_connection() at
execute_line()'s dispatch point (active_ctx->ctx, read fresh per
command), and fixes main()'s REPL loop to distinguish a real EOF from
an EINTR-interrupted readline() so Ctrl-C at an empty prompt discards
the line instead of exiting the session.
Live-discovered and fixed bug-1794: fill_job_alloc() never initializes
xce_job_alloc_t's nres_shared/allocs_shared fields -- harmless as stack
garbage before this task, genuine heap garbage once moved into a
heap-allocated ctx block (a necessary consequence of the adapter's
heap-only precondition). Fixed by switching all ~26 call-context
allocations from malloc to calloc uniformly. Also fixed an argv-aliasing
hazard: cmd_hello/cmd_jobckpt's -m values aliased optarg, which
execute_line() frees immediately after return including on the
abandoned path -- now strdup'd into the heap block.
Also closed a safety-critical gap this task's own design introduced
(bug-1795): before this task the REPL was fully synchronous, so
leave_ctx() (called by up/quit) could never run while an RPC was
outstanding. An abandoned worker can now persist past command
completion, so leave_ctx() tearing down the connection could
use-after-free it. Fixed via xcetest_wait_connection_idle(), which
blocks on the same per-connection semaphore the adapter already
tracks, then releases it, proving no worker is active before teardown.
Proven with a deterministic white-box RED->GREEN test, since the race
itself is too timing-dependent for a black-box test to reliably force.

a suggestion. cmd_walcompare's hand-rolled parser needed a leading '+'

positionals behavior. Also fixes bug-1704: cmd_qctrl's uninitialized
action variable, now sentineled and rejected when unset, mirroring

cmd_join_worker's simulated-worker maxmem default was 64 bytes -- a

bytes-canonical elsewhere. Now 64 * 1024 * 1024. Extracted the
argument-parsing/defaulting logic into join_worker_parse_attrs()

cluster (workerlist reports MaxMem: 64.00 MB) plus a permanent 5-test

(logged as bug-1793) but are deliberately left unfixed here since

columns and unlabeled hex Flags (now matching workerlist/state_raw's

combined NTasks column split into MinTasks/MaxTasks, job_state_str's
missing raw-state fallback for ambiguous RUN+EXIT (mirroring

Registers libedit's GNU-readline-compatible rl_attempted_completion_function

live on every call, so completion correctly tracks context switches rather
than freezing at registration time. Single/multi-match UI (auto-complete vs.
double-Tab candidate listing) is entirely libedit's stock behavior once given
a correct context-scoped generator. Proven via a black-box pty test verified
sound against a false-positive risk: xce_test has no fuzzy command-name
matching, so an uncompleted partial token cannot coincidentally trigger the
same effect a real completion would. Also fixes a harness bug (bug-1792):

The previous fix for the "slots" regression (5b18f14a) worked but was an
unneeded special case: strcmp(vres->res->name, "slots") to fall back to
nslots directly. alloc_req->host already holds exactly that value during
the global phase -- both allocators' own unconditional "add slots" step
stages it there regardless of phase, and plugin_prepare_allocation()
never resets .host during the global phase, so by the time sched_fill_
limit_requests() runs (right after, same invocation), .host contains
exactly "slots"'s job-wide total and nothing else.
Read alloc_req->host FIRST for this combination and fall back to the
rusages-based on-demand computation only when nothing is staged there
(get_resval_by_id()'s "not found" == 0.0, safe here since "slots" is
never legitimately 0 -- seqjob only runs for maxTasks==1, parjob only
for maxTasks>1). Data-driven instead of name-based, matching bug-1789's
own earlier flag-based-dispatch philosophy, and generalizes for free to
any future resource an allocator plugin similarly pre-stages outside
its normal rusages loop.
test_fill_limit_requests_global_limit_on_slots_reads_host now pre-stages
alloc_req->host exactly as the allocators do, rusages left empty,
matching production exactly.
Full xce-build.sh all asan --incremental: 94/94 Ok. Live re-verified
against both the original gitea#46 scenario and the ug1_global_mem
scenario: byte-identical scheduler traces to every prior verification
round.

The limit-plugin-ownership refactor (fa34b038) broke gitea#46's exact
original scenario. calc_wanted_job_total_resval() scans the job's
rusages by name, but "slots" is never a declared rusage entry --
seqjob_prepare_allocation()/parjob_prepare_allocation() derive its want
directly from the job's own task count via their own unconditional
key_find("slots", ...) + store, entirely outside the rusages loop. The
refactor's on-demand lookup therefore always missed for "slots",
silently leaving the computed want at 0 -- reintroducing bug-1789's
exact original symptom (matching worked, but caps never bound).
Live-confirmed against a fresh deploy of gitea#46's own repro (9 plain
sleep jobs, user1, queue normal, no -R flag): limit1/ug1_slots/
ug1_normal_slots all matched correctly but zero unsatisfy_ lines
appeared and all 9 jobs dispatched uncapped. The refactor's own new
unit test had masked this -- it artificially added a "slots" rusages
entry that doesn't reflect production reality.
Fix: sched_fill_limit_requests() now falls back to `nslots` directly
(the same value both allocators already store as "slots"'s own
per-host want) whenever the rusages lookup misses and the resource is
named "slots" -- the one documented exception to the rusages-lookup
rule, matching this codebase's existing "slots" special-casing
convention.
New test test_fill_limit_requests_global_limit_on_slots_uses_nslots
proves the fallback with no "slots" entry in rusages at all. The
original test reworked to use "mem" instead, so it now genuinely
exercises the general on-demand path.
Full xce-build.sh all asan --incremental: 94/94 Ok. Live re-verified
against both the original gitea#46 scenario (byte-identical to the
pre-refactor trace) and the ug1_global_mem scenario -- both correct.

bug-1790's fix worked but put limit-plugin-specific logic in the wrong
place: seqjob_prepare_allocation()/parjob_prepare_allocation() (the
allocator plugins) unconditionally pre-computed a job-wide total for
every per-host resource in the job's rusages, "just in case" some
global limit needed one. That's the allocator plugins' concern leaking
into limit evaluation -- duplicated across both allocators (a third
would need it too), and wasteful (computed for resources no limit
actually references).
Moved ownership to sched_fill_limit_requests() (resource.c), called
once centrally from plugin_prepare_allocation() regardless of which
allocator ran:
- Removed calc_wanted_host_resval_job_totals() and its calls from both
allocator plugins entirely.
- Added calc_wanted_job_total_resval() (resreq.c): an on-demand,
single-resource lookup by name (no resmgr/key_find needed -- the
caller already has the resolved xce_resource_t), computing the same
job-wide-total formula only for the one (scope, underlying-resource)
combination that needs it -- a GLOBAL limit on a per-host resource.
The other three combinations are unchanged, still reading straight
out of alloc_req.
- sched_fill_limit_requests() gains rusages/nhosts/nslots parameters
back (a genuine need this time, not a re-added unused one).
plugin.c's two call sites pass obj->u.primary->resreq->rusages
(NULL for COMPOUND/ALTER, matching this codebase's existing scope
convention for those tags) and ctx->nhosts/ctx->nslots.
All 23 testsuite link-satisfying stubs mechanically updated. Removed
the two allocator-level regression tests from the first pass (the
behavior they proved no longer exists by design); rewrote
test_fill_limit_requests_global_limit_on_host_resource_reads_host to
exercise the new on-demand path directly, nslots=3 to prove the job's
WHOLE total is used.
Full xce-build.sh all asan --incremental: 94/94 Ok, zero regressions.
Live re-verified against the same ug1_global_mem deploy/scenario:
byte-identical scheduler trace to the pre-refactor result, confirming
behavior-preserving.

test_job_rusage_reconciles_mem_reservation_against_usage asserted
w->resInUse was already charged 4.0 for a JOBS_PUSH-dispatched RUN job,
immediately after the push with no round boundary simulated. That
assumption was wrong, not the scheduler: resInUse/sharedInUse is never
charged incrementally at JOBS_PUSH/dispatch time. It's fully re-derived
once per round by sched_account_jobs() (scheduler.c), which iterates
every currently-RUN job and calls sched_charge_account() on each one's
accounts -- called by both the real normal-mode driver (driver.c) and
the sim driver (sim_loop.c), always before anything else in that round
reads resInUse. Confirmed by reading the full JOBS_PUSH handler
(core_events.c) and builtin_fcfs_on_job_push(): neither ever charges or
uncharges resInUse, by design -- core_session.c's own doc comment on
core_begin_session_internal() already documents this "recompute from
source of truth each round" architecture.
Fix: the test now calls sched_charge_account(&core, tracked->accounts)
right after JOBS_PUSH, simulating the one round-boundary reconciliation
step sched_account_jobs() would perform for its single RUN job (that
function itself lives in scheduler.c, not white-box #included here, so
its single-job effect is reproduced directly via the same primitive it
calls internally). No production code changed.
Full scheduler suite: 77/77 Ok (was 76/77). Full xce-build.sh all asan

free_host_account() (src/lib/misc.c) freed acct->accounts[] and acct
itself but never acct->host, the strdup'd string make_host_account()
(xcealloc.c) allocates -- a real leak on every free_job_account() call,
including the live production dispatch path (scheduler.c, core_events.c),
not just test fixtures. Already root-caused and the exact fix specified
in bug-1621 (logged, never applied); applied here: FREEUP(acct->host)
before FREEUP(acct), mirroring free_res_account()'s existing
FREEUP(acct->resname) pattern.
Also closes bug-1723: test_xcealloc.c's two multi-host overflow
regression tests (added by bug-1722's fix) never freed their own
locally-built fixture trees. Added free_JobAlloc_ptr(&jalloc) to
test_make_job_account_multi_host_no_overflow() and
free_HostAlloc_list(2, hallocs) to
test_make_host_allocs_multi_host_no_overflow(), exactly as bug-1723's
own root-cause note specified.
Together these take xcelib_test from a deterministic 456-byte/29-
allocation LeakSanitizer SIGABRT (masking every other libxce test result
behind it) to 1/1 Ok. Full xce-build.sh all asan --incremental: 94/94 Ok,

Adds ug1_global_mem to limits.yaml: a permanent, real GLOBAL limit on
"mem" (a per-host resource, not "slots"), capping ug1's total
cluster-wide mem usage at 5GB. This is exactly the scenario bug-1790
fixed but only unit-tested until now -- no limit in the shipped example
config exercised a global cap on a non-slots per-host resource.
Live-verified via a fresh single-node deploy: 3 jobs submitted as user1
(ug1 member) each requesting rusage[mem=2000000000] (2GB) on queue
normal. Scheduler trace confirms ug1_global_mem correctly matches and,
for the first time, computes a real nonzero job-wide-total wanted value:
unsatisfy_ resource 36 total 5000000000.000000 inuse 4000000000.000000
uncomit 0.000000 wanted 2000000000.000000
unsatisfy_ unmet resource 36 (limit=ug1_global_mem) shortfall
1000000000.000000
The 3rd job (4GB inuse + 2GB wanted = 6GB > 5GB cap) correctly PENDed
until an earlier job's mem freed up. Deploy config validated with zero
new warnings.

xce-build.sh has self-wrapped into nix develop since 028d8f6a; this
skill's two example command blocks still showed the old manual
"nix develop ./src --command bash ..." wrapper, now stale (harmless
since a nested nix develop is a no-op, but misleading documentation).
Simplified both to invoke the script directly, matching README.md's
same cleanup.

bug-1790) fully resolved it without needing that info, and gitea#46 was
just validated live and closed. Updates the entry with the full

Closes the gap bug-1789 explicitly carved out: a GLOBAL limit built on a
per-host resource other than "slots" (e.g. a future absolute global mem
cap) needs ctx->alloc_req.host to carry that resource's job-wide total
want during the global phase, but only "slots" ever got that treatment
(via seqjob/parjob_prepare_allocation()'s own unconditional store).
Adds calc_wanted_host_resval_job_totals() (resreq.c), sharing its loop
body with calc_wanted_global_resvals() via a new static helper
parameterized only by which XCE_RESF_GLOBAL direction to match -- it
computes the SAME job-wide-total formulas (PER_TASK: value*nslots, PER_JOB:
value, PER_HOST: value*nhosts) for non-global resources instead of global
ones. seqjob/parjob_prepare_allocation()'s global-phase branch now calls
it into ctx->alloc_req.host alongside the existing calc_wanted_global_
resvals() call into .shared.
Safety was traced, not assumed: plugin_prepare_allocation() only resets
.host at the top of a per-host call, never during the global phase, and
sched_fill_limit_requests() for glimits reads .host later in the SAME
global-phase invocation -- transferring the value into the limit's
permanent .shared record before any later per-host call ever resets
.host. An earlier candidate fix (reusing calc_wanted_host_resvals()
directly) was rejected during design: its PER_HOST formula and, for
parjob, its per-bucket nslots don't give a job-wide total.
New regression tests in test_seqjob_allocator.c/test_parjob_
combinatorial.c prove a non-"slots" per-host resource ("mem") now gets
correctly populated; parjob's test uses maxTasks=3 specifically to prove
the formula uses the job's whole nslots, not a bucket's share.
Full suite (xce-build.sh all asan --incremental): 92/94, both failures
pre-existing and unrelated (bug-1762, bug-1733's already-documented
xcealloc.c leak). Not live-verified -- no limits.yaml entry exercises
this path yet.

meson/ninja/capnp/Go only exist inside the hermetic nix dev shell, but
xce-build.sh never entered it itself -- the /xce-build skill documented
wrapping every invocation in `nix develop ./src --command ...` by hand,
so a bare `bash src/tools/xce-build.sh ...` (run directly instead of
through the skill) failed opaquely with "meson: command not found". This
was a recurring, previously-logged gap that resurfaced again today mid
bug-1789 verification.
The script now checks IN_NIX_SHELL at the top and re-execs itself under
`nix develop` if unset, so every caller -- the skill, a bare invocation,
CI, a human at a terminal -- gets it automatically. A nested call (already
inside the shell) is a no-op past that check. README.md's daily-develop
section updated to match; the old "or use nix develop --command" example
is now redundant and removed.

sched_fill_limit_requests() used to read a limit's underlying resource's
want from the same vector its own virtual-resource entry gets written to.
That's wrong whenever the two differ in scope -- e.g. a GLOBAL limit built
on top of a per-host resource like "slots" (limits.yaml's
ug1_normal_slots): the limit's own vres entry belongs in alloc_req->shared,
but "slots"'s want is only ever staged into alloc_req->host by
seqjob/parjob_prepare_allocation(), so the old code always read a zero and
silently never enforced the cap.
Now both the read source and write destination are derived independently
from each resource's own XCE_RESF_GLOBAL flag (vres->res for the source,
vres->vres for the destination) -- the same flag
calc_wanted_global_resvals()/calc_wanted_host_resvals() (resreq.c) already
dispatch on, so this is the existing rule applied consistently rather than
a new one. Also drops sched_fill_limit_requests()'s unused xce_scheduler_t*
parameter.
Full scheduler suite: 76/77 (the one failure, test_job_rusage_reconciles_
mem_reservation_against_usage, is bug-1762, pre-existing and unrelated).
Live-verified against a fresh single-node deploy.
Filed bug-1790 to track a known, deliberately out-of-scope residual gap:
a future global limit on a per-host resource other than "slots" would need
calc_wanted_host_resvals() to also run during the global phase for that
resource, which nothing currently does.

While live-verifying gitea#46, found and fixed a cascade of 5 previously
undetected bugs that together made every usergroup-scoped limit in
limits.yaml silently non-functional:
- Named usergroups/hostgroups (users.yaml/hosts.yaml) were never
registered into the scheduler's group managers (groupmgr_add() had zero
production callers), so any limit referencing one by name could never
resolve real membership.
- An unconfigured limit scope (e.g. no "projects:") arrived as an
empty-but-present capnp group, not NULL, so build_consumer() built a
real empty group (matching no one) instead of falling back to "all".
- Three separate call sites conflated key_find()'s negative "not found"
return with a real error, short-circuiting before ever reaching the
"instantiate on first use" logic right below them -- the same defect
class already fixed once before in this codebase (bug-1495).
- Two call sites passed &(sched->core.resmgr) where a plain handle was
expected, one level of indirection too many, causing RTTI's key_find()
to reject it as an invalid handle.
All five are live-verified: fresh cluster deploys now correctly match and
instantiate usage tracking for all 7 limits in limits.yaml on every job
submission, reproduced across multiple independent from-scratch redeploys.
A 6th, architecturally distinct issue remains open (bug-1789, logged, not
fixed): sched_fill_limit_requests() computes a job's consumption of a
slots-scoped global limit by reading the wrong request vector, so the
numeric cap itself still never binds. This needs a design decision on
intended cross-scope semantics, not a mechanical fix, so it's left for a
follow-up.
