This makes candidate-advertised LSN identical to the voter-side floor, so for any two nodes A,B: A grants B iff floor_B >= floor_A -> the freshest node is always granted by every peer; equal-floor ties are broken by raft priority delay. Regression test added: test_rdhup_candidate_advertises_freshness_floor_not_stale_committed (applied/learned=10, persist.committed=0 -> asserts advertised my_lsn==10). RED (Was 0) -> GREEN verified.

Critically, primary_heartbeat_fn step 2 (reconnect) treats a peer as 'found' (connected) if ANY ep for it is in standby_endpoints \u2014 so the wedged ep SUPPRESSED reconnection. ctrl-2 therefore never opened a fresh connection to the restarted ctrl-1, never sent a ctrlhello, so ctrl-1 never set primary_ctrl_fd / refreshed last_activity and its liveness watchdog re-elected every heartbeat_timeout forever. (The earlier suspected 'become_follower doesn't reset last_activity' was NOT a bug: ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask already stamps last_activity=now, so the ~11s period is exactly one full timeout \u2014 confirming the watchdog is correct and the sole cause is the broken channel.)",
"fix": "In primary_heartbeat_fn (ha.c) step 1, added liveness eviction symmetric with the standby's own liveness poll: for each standby ep, if ep->ts_last_in > 0 (was responsive at least once) AND (now_wall - ep->ts_last_in) > heartbeat_timeout_s, remove it from ha->standby_endpoints (zarray_del, under ha->lock) and collect it; after releasing ha->lock, repl_remove_standby() each evicted ep. Removal is the load-bearing action \u2014 the reconnect scan (step 2) then re-establishes a fresh ctrlhello channel to the restarted peer on this/next tick, and ctrl-1 settles via ha_discover_primary (no term gate, ha.c:3807) \u2192 become_follower \u2192 STANDBY. ts_last_in/ts_last_out are existing endpoint_t fields (wall clock, set in handle_input/handle_output), so no libnetio change. The evicted ep object itself is reclaimed by its err handler when the dead connection finally surfaces an epoll event (bounded leak, consistent with codebase). Eviction keys on ts_last_in>0 so a just-connected joiner (ts_last_in==0) gets grace. Regression tests: test_primary_hb_evicts_silent_standby (RED\u2192GREEN), test_primary_hb_keeps_live_standby, test_primary_hb_keeps_unconfirmed_standby in test_ha_liveness.c.",

"file": "src/controller/job.c (caller) / src/controller/persist.c (consumer)",
"root_cause": "update_job_rusages fires AFTER_EVENT HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_RUSAGE_UPDATE with (cluster_t*, xce_job_rusages_t*) at job.c:1015-1016, but persist_job_hook_fun's default arm (persist.c:1354-1359) reads the second vararg as job_t* and dereferences j->job.state at offset 56 == sizeof(xce_job_rusages_t) \u2014 an out-of-bounds read on an exactly-sized allocation; the WAL_JOB_RUSAGE payload state field is garbage (jobid at offset 0 lines up by accident)",
"fix": "FIXED (TDD RED->GREEN). Added a dedicated HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_RUSAGE_UPDATE arm to persist_job_hook_fun (persist.c) that reads the real xce_job_rusages_t* payload and looks the job up by jobid via the cluster_t* the hook already carries (c->jobmgr), instead of falling through to the default arm that misread it as a job_t*. Fix candidate (1) from the original investigation was used -- a dedicated RUSAGE arm -- not candidate (2) (firing the hook with (c, j) like other job hooks), because sched_job_rusage_update_fun/apiserver_job_rusage_update_fun (this hook's other two listeners, sched.c/apiserver.c) genuinely need the full rusages payload (pids/pgids/usages), so changing what job.c fires would have broken them. Regression test (test_commit_barrier_reply.c's test_update_op_rusage_receipt_reply_facts_retained, extended): drives the real do_update_op/update_job_rusages call path and scans the resulting WAL_JOB_RUSAGE entry, asserting state == JOB_STAT_PEND (the job's real state) -- RED under the old code (read back 0, the zeroed padding past xce_job_rusages_t's end), GREEN under the fix. Also fixed test_persist_hooks.c's test_job_hook_rusage_writes_wal_entry, which previously masked the bug by passing a job_t* stub instead of the real xce_job_rusages_t* shape -- now builds a minimal real cluster+jobmgr+job and passes the correct payload type; added a sibling test for the job-not-found graceful-skip path (returns 0, appends nothing, no crash). Full controller_unit_test suite: 1096 tests, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures (test_config_repl.c, filed as bug-1561 -- overlayfs fdatasync artifact, zero diff in that file this session), no regressions.\n\n[Original entry]\nNOT FIXED (discovered while writing task 3.3 receipt-ACK verdict pins; production out of boundary). Test test_update_op_rusage_receipt_reply_facts_retained uses a padded union so the pin stays in-bounds under ASAN without masking the bug; fix candidates: dedicated RUSAGE arm in persist_job_hook_fun reading xce_job_rusages_t*, or fire the hook with (c, j) like the other job hooks",

"root_cause": "SOLVED (reproduced locally via /xce-build + 3-node deploy-ha, ASAN). cluster_start() \u2014 the ONLY place that sets c->running=1 \u2014 is ORPHANED (zero callers; grep confirms). The HA startup path (myapp_run) starts iomgr/vtaskmgr/delaymgr/persist_start itself but never calls cluster_start, so c->running stays 0 (calloc default) on the primary. check_controller() (the streaming gate passed to xce_reply_get for joblist/workerlist) returns -EINVAL when !c->running; xce_reply_get then sets nc=0 (chunk count), shipping an EMPTY list to the client even though collect_jobs/key_find found the job. reslist passes checkf=NULL so it was immune. DIAG proof: 'reply_get send: table=2 pos=0 nc=0 nrows=1 checkstatus=-22' (pre-fix) -> 'nc=1 ... checkstatus=1' (post-fix). Single-node/legacy cluster_init path called cluster_start, which is why non-replicated worked.",
"fix": "Set c->running=1 at the TOP of cluster_run() (src/controller/cluster.c), symmetric with the existing c->running=0 on shutdown \u2014 the orphaned cluster_start() used to set it. c->running is a liveness/shutdown flag: check_controller() is polled PER CHUNK inside xce_reply_get()'s streaming loop so a long multi-chunk fetch (e.g. thousands of jobs) ABORTS mid-stream (nc=0) if a shutdown request arrives during it. The bug: running started 0 and was never set under HA, so the gate fired on every reply, not just during shutdown. Fix restores running=1 for the run-loop lifetime; the shutdown abort path (running=0 when cluster_run's cbuf_get loop breaks on the stop signal) is unchanged. Verified E2E on a local 3-node deploy-ha (ASAN): jobs now appear in joblist; DIAG showed checkstatus/nc flip -22/0 -> 1/1. Final fix is in cluster_run (not myapp_run \u2014 moved there so the 1<->0 lifecycle is co-located in the function that receives the shutdown signal).",

So -errno is 0 for the documented EOF cases -> the close looked like success. NOTE: on this 3.6 build a process-death FIN surfaced as SSL_ERROR_SSL/errno=32, which the OLD code propagated -- so this swallow is NOT necessarily the cause of the observed controller-kill permanent hang (that still implicates the reconnect/SSL-handshake path); it is a real, separate, errno-dependent non-determinism.",

The existing fresh-deny tests even documented the intent ('the deny gate requires a live connection AND a fresh heartbeat', set primary_ctrl_fd=999), but production didn't enforce it.",
"fix": "Added `ha->primary_ctrl_fd >= 0 &&` to the ha.c:311 eligibility gate (mirrors ha.c:2205). primary_ctrl_fd is -1 on init / after the primary RDHUPs / after the liveness watchdog fires, and a real fd only via config_repl.c:1451 (first ctrlhello from the live primary) \u2014 so a dead/absent primary no longer masquerades as fresh and the standby GRANTS, converging in ~1 round. Kept cluster.c:526 denial-reason logging in sync. TDD: test_pre_vote_dead_primary_grants_despite_fresh_activity (fresh last_activity + primary_ctrl_fd=-1 -> GRANT); verified RED (Expected 1 Was 0) without the guard, GREEN with it, and the 3 existing fresh-deny tests (fd=999) unaffected. Full controller suite + libxce 169/0, zero regressions.",

"root_cause": "'committed' does not imply 'durable'.

On kill+restart, killed nodes lose the not-yet-fsynced tail; persist_recover hits CRC break at zeroed region (prev_crc=00000000, offset 40) and truncates replay to ~0 entries, yet the hollow node stays eligible, wins election under degraded required=1 quorum (PreVote+freshness gate cannot fence it because the committed entries were durable on nobody), self-promotes advertising committed_lsn=21 over an empty job table, and the node holding the real data converges DOWN. Violates Leader-Completeness assumption (majority-ACK != durable-on-majority) in src/controller/CLAUDE.md.",
"fix": "NOT YET FIXED. Discovery -> new spec ha-commit-durability (Path C, brief written). R1 fsync-before-ACK (standby fdatasync before WalAck, primary self-count only after local fdatasync, committed_lsn advances only on durable majority, group-commit to bound latency). R2 promotion fence (WAL CRC/replay failure => ineligible to lead until caught up, FATAL not silent truncate; never lead below known committed high-water even under degraded quorum). Live E2E reproduces via xce_test jobsub + primary kills on /xce-deploy-ha. DETERMINISTIC REPRO (task 1.3, 2026-06-18): `bash src/tools/test-commit-durability.sh --deterministic` launches the cluster with --wal-sync-ms 30000 (plumbed via deploy-ha.sh start.sh `$*` passthrough, EXTRA_CTRL_ARGS) so the primary's fsync_worker never fires in-window -> every committed entry is page-cache-only on the primary (majority_candidate_locked counts cap=highest_appended_lsn=current_lsn-1, NOT durable). It then drives rolling PRIMARY kills (each right after committing to that primary) + restart, so hollow nodes re-lead. RED CONFIRMED: 6-round run lost the 3 EARLIEST committed JobIds permanently (rounds 4 and 6 + final check), Results 5 passed/3 failed, exit=1 \u2014 matching the incident signature (earliest jobs gone). NOTE: a single double-kill does NOT repro \u2014 this codebase enforces strict majority (lone survivor will NOT self-elect: log shows 'no single-voter primary within 40s'); loss needs the ROLLING/term-accumulating path the incident used.

"error_message": "CHAOTIC leadership churn (3x kill-the-primary) causes SILENT committed-prefix DIVERGENCE: all 3 nodes report committedLsn=54 with lsn range 1..54 / 0 gaps / CRC intact, but WAL CONTENT diverges at LSN 45-54 (ctrl-1/ctrl-2/ctrl-3 each hold DIFFERENT jobs at the same LSNs; fps bfeb26ad/216af434/865304ec). Violates Raft committed-prefix invariant (a committed entry must be byte-identical on every member). Originally seen as a liveness 'commit stall'; the deeper defect is divergence + acked-job loss under churn.",
"file": "src/controller/persist.c:588/726/1040 (hdr.term=p->term, p->term never set) + src/controller/ha.c (election term = local+1, PreVote no-persist; two leaders per term) + src/controller/ha_convergence.c (reconcile cannot (term,lsn) log-match)",
"root_cause": "ROOT-CAUSED 2026-06-21 (owned-cluster repro, see .kiro/specs/ha-commit-durability/repro-851/). THREE compounding defects: (1) Election term not monotonic across cluster: term = locally-persisted+1, PreVote does NOT persist/propagate ('PreVote round ... no persist'); under chaotic kills a leader wins term N, appends own-term noop+jobs, and is killed BEFORE term N propagates to a majority; a restarted node recovers a STALE term and elects at the SAME N+1 => TWO leaders share a term (logs: term3 led by ctrl-3@08:40 AND ctrl-1@08:47:39; term4 led by ctrl-2@08:47:52 AND ctrl-3@08:48:04), each appending its own-term noop at the SAME lsn 45. (2) WAL entry term field is DEAD (always 0): wal_entry_hdr_t.term exists (wal_types.h:30) but writer does hdr.term=p->term (persist.c:588/726/1040) and p->term is NEVER assigned from ha->term anywhere in the controller (zero matches) => every entry persists term=0; waldump confirms term=0 cluster-wide. (3) No (term,lsn) reconcile: with no usable per-entry term, ha_convergence.c reconcile cannot Raft-log-match, so a divergent same-lsn suffix (45@term3 vs 45@term4) looks already-present and is never truncated; ha_compute_safe_committed_lsn then advances committed 'from 1 granted voter' over content other members never received. NOTE: a CLEAN single failover fully converges (all WALs identical 1..22, 848/849/850 validated) \u2014 only CHAOTIC churn triggers it.",
"fix": "FIXED AND VERIFIED LIVE -- three distinct contributing root causes were found and fixed, all owned by ha-term-safety (spec.json validate_impl decision: GO, 2026-07-17): (1) Term propagation -- repl_broadcast (persist.c:747, the live replicator) built its wire entry without setting entry.term, so live traffic wire-encoded term=0 even though the primary's own header had the real term (same root cause as bug-990, fixed together in task 3.4: entry.term=hdr->term now carried through the live send+intake path, term-0 legacy direct-apply retired). 175/175 unit tests, live-confirmed on real fs. (2) Election-Safety violation (bug-1095/bug-1096, the 'bug-851 family', found by the raft-sim-conformance oracle): raft_on_vote_reply in libxce's raft.c double-counted duplicate vote replies and never dropped stale-term replies, allowing two leaders at the same term -- fixed with a per-peer vote-reply dedup + stale-term drop, unit-tested at both the raft-sim and controller level. (3) Premature election-time truncation (bug-828, closely related): ha_enter_real_election was truncating the WAL to a stale last_known_committed_lsn before computing the safe commit point, destroying already-durable committed entries -- fixed (commit b77d412), live-verified: clean failover preserves committed jobs, walcompare committed-prefix identical across all 3 members across multiple runs. ha-term-safety's GO decision explicitly cites a fresh 6-round LIVE chaotic-multi-kill soak (bug-851's exact repro scenario) passing with zero committed divergence/job loss -- superseding an earlier in-task note (task 5.4) that had called this env-blocked before that later live run completed.\n\n[Original entry]\nNOT FIXED (HA-core + persistence => full spec workflow per CLAUDE.md, not a quick patch). Keystone lever: stamp hdr.term from live ha->term on the primary append path + carry term through the repl envelope + persist it, THEN make ha_convergence reconcile truncate any local suffix whose (term,lsn) != leader's (standard Raft log-matching). MUST pair with durably-establishing the election term before a new leader acts (no two leaders per term: persist/propagate the won term to a majority before appending the own-term noop, or bump term beyond any (term,lsn) a voter advertises). Route to ha-consistency-invariants / ha-convergence-recovery as a new sub-spec.",

A clean controller rebuild made the full controller test suite green (Ok:1 Fail:0, 12.7s) \u2014 the earlier wal_catchup -EAGAIN/decode failures were a STALE incremental-build artifact (schema compiled against the drifted toolchain), not fsync or a source regression. RECURRENCE 2026-07-23 (config worktree, /xce-build controller build+report task for config-upgrade-snapshot Task 1 RED-phase capture): identical hash mismatch reproduced verbatim (same specified sha256-9dzSc3w+yxYzsF/rZe3qIarKOpjt2zvIyjuS5FXngIM= vs got sha256-9rTlcTia+s9ARGeTi+8auGvM0RkS+wZK7aIkzecaeSk= for capnpc-1.0.1.drv source.drv) on FIRST invocation and again on an identical immediate RETRY (deterministic, not transient -- unlike the unrelated ninja-race bugs, retrying does not help here). Build never reached compilation; no xce_controller, controller_unit_test, or xce_test binaries produced; controller.capnp.c/h were not regenerated. This worktree (config, at .../worktrees/config) still has the pre-fix flake.lock/pin state -- the 2026-06-22 fix (refreshing src/flake.lock) was apparently not carried into this worktree, or upstream c-capnproto main.tar.gz drifted again since. NOT fixed this run (build+report only, no source/flake edits authorized by the task). Next step: refresh src/flake.lock in this worktree (nix flake update / lock the xbuild input) the same way the 2026-06-22 fix did, then retry the controller build. RECURRENCE 3 (2026-07-23, config worktree, config-upgrade-snapshot Task 1 implementer session): identical hash mismatch reproduced again AFTER a prior subagent had already logged occurrence 2 (build+report task, no fix attempted). This session went further: (1) confirmed `nix flake lock --update-input xbuild` in src/ is a NO-OP -- xbuild is already pinned to the latest available shen390s/my-nix-channel@master commit (073f527e), so re-locking flake.lock does NOT fix this recurrence (the previous 2026-06-22 fix's mechanism -- refresh flake.lock -- no longer applies once xbuild is already current); (2) confirmed via direct `nix develop` in the CANONICAL non-worktree repo (/home/rshen/projects/xce/xce/src) that it fails IDENTICALLY (same two sha256 hashes, same capnpc-1.0.1.drv path) -- this is a live, machine-wide, upstream c-capnproto main.tar.gz drift, NOT a worktree-isolation problem, and is not fixable from within this repo at all (the broken pin lives inside the external shen390s/my-nix-channel flake, at whatever commit is currently latest); (3) WORKAROUND discovered and used successfully: this machine's /nix/store already has REALIZED (fully built, not just .drv) output paths for capnpc-1.0.1 and capnproto-1.2.0 from a build that completed before the drift -- `find /nix/store -maxdepth 1 -iname '*capnp*'` surfaces them; invoking their bin/capnp and bin/capnpc-c binaries DIRECTLY (bypassing `nix develop`'s full devShell evaluation entirely) still works and successfully compiled a controller.capnp schema change end-to-end, generating correct bindings. This unblocks schema-level capnp verification even while the full `nix develop` shell is broken, but does NOT unblock a full project build/link -- controller_unit_test additionally needs `librtti` (fetched via a private SSH git flake input), which has NEVER been built/cached on this machine at all (no .drv or realized store path exists for it), so a full build+test run remains genuinely infeasible until either upstream fixes the c-capnproto pin or a machine with a pre-cached librtti+full toolchain is used.",

"recurrence_4_RESOLVED": "2026-07-24, config-upgrade-snapshot task 1 resumption session: RESOLVED (repo-local fix, no longer machine-wide-blocked as recurrence 3 concluded). Added a local override in src/nixSupport/xce.nix's capnpc derivation -- `src = pkgs.fetchFromGitHub { owner = \"shen390s\"; repo = \"c-capnproto\"; rev = \"e45ff682c4756ac5067cbac6d0f282a8ea5f0155\"; sha256 = \"sha256-9rTlcTia+s9ARGeTi+8auGvM0RkS+wZK7aIkzecaeSk=\"; }` -- pinning capnpc's source to an IMMUTABLE commit (the exact content the drifted `main` tarball happened to resolve to, so the hash matches what was already realized in the local /nix/store from recurrence 3's workaround) instead of upstream xbuild's package.nix pinning the MUTABLE `main` ref. This makes the fix independent of upstream's moving target permanently, not just until the next drift. Verified end-to-end: `nix develop --command meson setup xce.build --buildtype=debug -Db_sanitize=address --reconfigure && ninja -C xce.build controller/controller_unit_test` built clean (librtti and all other deps resolved fine -- recurrence 3's librtti-never-cached concern did not reproduce, this machine already had it), and the full `controller_unit_test` binary ran to completion: 978 Tests 0 Failures 0 Ignored, OK. Do-not-repeat: when a fixed-output-derivation hash mismatch traces to an upstream flake pinning a MUTABLE branch/ref (not a tag/commit), the durable fix is a local override.overrideAttrs pinning `src` to an explicit immutable commit + matching sha256 in the CONSUMING repo's own nix file -- do not wait on upstream or keep re-locking flake.lock (recurrence 3 already proved that path is a dead end once xbuild is already at its latest available commit)."

A leftover orphaned controller_unit_test process (PID from an earlier invocation, blocked in futex_do_wait, presumably stalled retrying a WAL fsync against the full disk) was also found and killed. Fixed for this session via `find /tmp -maxdepth 1 -name 'xce_*' -exec rm -rf {} +` (630G reclaimed, 100% -> 29% used) -- confirmed no live xce process had any of those dirs open before deleting. General lesson: when controller_unit_test dies silently/instantly with exit code 1 and the log just stops mid-file with no crash signature, check `df -h /tmp` and grep for 'mkdtemp failed'/'calloc failed' before assuming a real regression -- this sandbox's /tmp accumulates leftover unit-test mkdtemp() fixture dirs across EVERY session indefinitely (no test file in this suite cleans up its own /tmp/xce_* dirs), so this will keep recurring until either the testsuite adds its own cleanup or something periodically clears /tmp.",

LIVE evidence (fix828c_r1..r3, STRICT_TERM clean failover x3) proves the surviving voters advertise 1 because they are GENUINELY durable only at LSN 1: their WAL physically holds 1..2 (LSN2 = their own term-3 NOOP), recovered tip=2, durable_floor=1.

"root_cause": "ctrl-3 computed safe_committed_lsn=44 from voter peerLastLogLsn (ctrl-3=47, ctrl-2=44 \u2192 majority at 44) and truncated committed entries 45-47 (term=12, acked by ctrl-3 itself as standby under ctrl-1). ctrl-3 then wrote leadership NOP at LSN=45 (term=13) and replicated it to ctrl-2. Result: ctrl-1 has LSN=45=JOB_SUBMIT/term=12, ctrl-2 has LSN=45=NOOP/term=13 \u2014 divergent WALs. The safe_committed_lsn formula ignores the candidate's own durable knowledge of committed entries, violating Leader Completeness: the new leader must never truncate entries it has that were committed by a prior leader.",
"fix": "IMPLEMENTED (2026-06-24): added pure helper ha_promotion_truncate_floor(safe_lsn, durable_tip)=max(safe_lsn,durable_tip) in ha.c/ha.h; raft_cb_become_leader now truncates at max(safe_committed_lsn, persist_durable_floor(&c->persist)) instead of bare safe_committed_lsn. Since the cutoff is never below the leader's own durable tip, persist_truncate_wal_above is a no-op on the leader's durable log \u2014 the new leader NEVER truncates entries it holds (Raft \u00a75.4 Leader Completeness). safe_committed_lsn is still the commit lower-bound and promotion-gate HWM (NOT clamped \u2014 clamping it would defeat the behind-node fence). The leadership NOP now appends at the true tip (current_lsn) so replication converges peers to the leader's WAL with zero job loss. Unit test test_promotion_never_truncates_own_committed_entries in test_ha_election.c (GREEN). Steering src/controller/CLAUDE.md updated (Leader Completeness section + Post-Election Safe Commit Point + verification checklist). Recovery of an already-diverged cluster still requires restarting the over-truncated node (loses the cut jobs); this fix prevents the divergence.",

(b) Hybrid gate by fs type via static dc_path_is_overlayfs() (statfs f_type == OVERLAYFS_SUPER_MAGIC 0x794c7630, defaults to real-fs path on statfs error): on a real fs keep the strong cross-context fresh boot-recovery assertion (fresh->current_lsn <= committed_boundary+1); on overlayfs skip that fd-incoherent step and assert the LIVE-context truncate effect (g_dc.persist.current_lsn <= committed_boundary+1, coherent under p->lock).

"file": "src/controller/ha.c (election/PreVote path)",
"root_cause": "After 3 overlapping kills the only fully-up-to-date node is killed; the two survivors are both restarted-and-lagging (tips 15 and 11; leader was 19). Both hold the full committed prefix [1..11] (safe candidates) but their PreVote rounds repeatedly time out with no grant quorum (prospective terms frozen, never bumped). Distinct from the 5.2 spurious-failover flap (that is fixed and confirmed). Contributors: freshness mutual-denial between lagging survivors, in_catch_up-denies-all-votes (Req 2.5) with no live primary to catch up from, and/or peer vote connection not established between two nodes that only held a control channel to the dead primary.",
"fix": "FIXED at unit level by task 5.3 (commit bf88681): gate the in_catch_up PreVote deny in raft_cb_vote_eligible on a LIVE primary (primary_ctrl_fd>=0 && ha_heartbeat_is_fresh), so a catching-up survivor with a dead primary can grant/win a fresh PreVote (logOk preserves Leader Completeness). CORRECTION: this in_catch_up deadlock is a real latent defect (unit RED\u2192GREEN) but is NOT the soak's round-4 blocker. The soak stall is bug-924 (WAL fdatasync\u2192EINVAL wedges a survivor so it stops answering PreVotes; presents as an election stall). 7.2 live acceptance is blocked on that env defect (out of scope; owned by ha-commit-durability), not on consensus.",

"file": "src/controller/ha.c",
"root_cause": "peer_ctrl_msg_handler (ha.c) held ep->dispatch_inflight incremented across the ENTIRE peer_ctrl_dispatch_to_pool call, including its inline fallback (the common cold-start shape when ha->pool is not yet wired). That inline body can reach raft_cb_become_follower, which -- now that cluster_init_phase2 ran synchronously earlier in the SAME call chain and wired the pool -- tears down its own loser vote-ep (the very ep whose reply triggered this call) via the deferred path (vote_ep_teardown_async), whose endpoint_mark_tearing_down spins waiting for dispatch_inflight==0 on that SAME ep. That count is held only by this exact call, on this exact thread, and cannot reach 0 until the spin itself returns -- a permanent self-deadlock. Confirmed live via a gdb thread backtrace (GDB_WRAP debug seam added to run-ha-soak.sh, launching the target node directly under `gdb --batch` so it becomes ptrace-legal as gdb's own direct child, then SIGINT to gdb once the log went stale for a bounded interrupt + full backtrace): frame `peer_ctrl_dispatch_to_pool` showed pool=0x0 at dispatch time; the same ep pointer appeared in the nested vote_ep_teardown_async -> endpoint_mark_tearing_down frame, spinning on sched_yield().",
"fix": "Moved the ep->dispatch_inflight release into peer_ctrl_dispatch_to_pool itself, at the exact right point per exit path: released BEFORE calling the inline body on every fallback path (pool==NULL, OOM, enqueue failure) -- safe because io_worker is single-threaded and the inline path never enqueues anything, so there is no pool-worker race left to protect against once inline execution is committed to -- and only AFTER the (non-blocking) enqueue completes on the success path, preserving the original protection for the genuinely concurrent pool-worker case. New unit test test_vep_self_teardown_does_not_deadlock (test_ha_vep_teardown.c) uses a bounded-timeout pthread_timedjoin_np so a regression fails loud instead of hanging the suite; RED confirmed via a temporary manual revert (Expected 0 Was 110 == ETIMEDOUT) before restoring the fix. Live-verified with both g_drive_async_snapshot_offload and g_drive_async_peerctrl_dispatch_enabled flipped ON: --force-snapshot soak (the exact repro shape) completes without hanging across repeated runs, confirmed real snapshot installs, committed_divergence=0, committed_job_loss=0; a 6-round --chaotic soak with both flags ON also passed clean; full controller suite green throughout.

"error_message": "raft-drive-async task 3.3 (config-push slow-lane offload) blocked: push_config_transport_only has a pre-existing endpoint-lifetime race, independent of the g_drive_async_configpush_offload flag -- it grabs raw endpoint_t* pointers for every registered standby under c->ha.lock, releases the lock, then spawns one pthread per standby (push_thread) that reads/writes those endpoints unprotected for up to CONF_PUSH_TIMEOUT_MS. If a standby RDHUP-disconnects during that window, the io_worker's teardown path (endpoint_killer -> endpoint_unref, the bug-1298 refcount system) can free the endpoint while a push_thread is still using it -- a UAF. This is NOT specific to the lane offload: the transport fan-out spawns its own independent OS threads regardless of which caller (inline drive-thread or lane worker) invokes it, so the documented 'runs inline on io_worker so teardown and push are serialized on one thread' rationale for keeping the flag OFF does not actually hold -- the race exists in the inline path today too.",
"file": "src/controller/config_repl.c",
"root_cause": "push_config_transport_only (config_repl.c ~line 1366) takes c->ha.lock only long enough to copy standby ep pointers into a push_ctx_t array, then releases the lock before pthread_create-ing one push_thread per standby. Those threads read/write the raw endpoint_t* for the full duration of the send + wait_all_with_timeout(CONF_PUSH_TIMEOUT_MS), with no ref taken on the endpoints and no coordination with concurrent teardown (handle_endpoint_error -> zarray_del -> endpoint_killer -> endpoint_unref). Unlike the snapshot-lane fix (bug-1197/bug-1376 session), no endpoint_ref/endpoint_unref bracket protects this fan-out.",
"fix": "FIXED. push_config_transport_only (config_repl.c) now takes endpoint_ref() on each standby ep while the pointer is snapshotted under c->ha.lock, mirroring the snapshot-lane fix (bug-1197/bug-1376). Every ref has exactly one matching endpoint_unref(): from push_thread after it finishes using ctx->ep (new close in push_thread itself), or from push_config_transport_only inline if pthread_create fails for that standby, or from a cleanup loop if the threads[] allocation fails entirely. A concurrent RDHUP teardown (endpoint_killer -> endpoint_unref) can now only drop the OWNER reference while a push is in flight -- it can no longer free ep out from under push_thread. New regression test test_configpush_transport_holds_endpoint_ref_across_send (test_config_repl.c) uses a new push_thread_send_hook test seam (same pattern as xce_wal_stream_request_hook) to park a push_thread mid-send, simulate the owner teardown, and assert ep survives with refcnt intact. RED->GREEN verified via temporary revert (Expected 2 Was 1 with the ref-take removed); full controller suite green (230/230) after restore.",

Confirmed via ctrl-2 log evidence: primary logs start+complete for a 735546-byte (12-chunk) snapshot within ~2ms, but ctrl-2 only ever receives a handful of leading chunks (2 in one run, 5 in another) before the stream silently stops -- no ERROR on either side.",

The 'transfer complete' INFO log is now strictly gated on rc==0; a failure path now logs a WARN with checkpoint_lsn/total_size/sent-offset/chunk_index/rc for observability. No receive-side timeout/re-request mechanism was added (out of scope, no existing seam) \u2014 the existing per-peer snapshot_inflight[] flag already clears unconditionally on send-thread exit (snapshot_lane_fn, ha.c) and the next heartbeat's SEND_SNAPSHOT decision naturally re-triggers a fresh transfer to a peer whose applied_lsn never advanced, so the existing retry cadence recovers once the endpoint is healthy again.

This is NOT bug-1386 (that was a chunk DROP producing a truncated/short transfer). Byte-comparing the primary's source checkpoint file against the exact bytes ctrl-2 assembled into snap.part -> snap-{lsn}.bin (same run, two separate checkpoint LSNs 0x75 and 0x76, both reproduced) shows: identical total size (735546==735546) but DIFFERENT CONTENT \u2014 the received file diverges from the sender's file starting exactly at a SNAPSHOT_CHUNK_SIZE (65536-byte) chunk boundary, then the content is a byte-SHIFTED copy of the correct data (same repeating job-frame strings, same occurrence count, just offset) that re-synchronizes with the source at a later offset.

"root_cause": "NOT YET PINNED to an exact line \u2014 root cause is a chunk-CONTENT-corruption bug in the OPCode_snapshotTransfer chunk pipeline, most likely in the capnp raw-Data encode/decode path for the 64KB `payload :Data` field (xce_snapshot_chunk_encode_raw, request.c:630-671, uses the same capn_new_list8/capn_setv8 pattern as bug-847 \u2014 'WAL Catch-Up Streaming Silently Corrupts Payloads at capnp Segment Boundary' \u2014 a proven prior case of this exact capnp pattern corrupting raw-byte payloads at a segment boundary). Ruled out as NOT the cause: (1) receiver-side concurrent chunk processing \u2014 vtaskmgr's per-endpoint FIFO (endpoint_block_tasks/endpoint_unblock_tasks) guarantees chunk N+1 cannot dispatch until chunk N's ha_handle_snapshot_chunk (including its fopen/fwrite/fclose) fully returns; (2) sender buf-reuse race \u2014 xce_snapshot_chunk_encode_raw copies bytes into the capnp segment synchronously before ha_send_snapshot_to_standby's loop re-fread()s the shared buf; (3) fixed-size packet-pool truncation \u2014 alloc_packet (netio.c:416-432) mallocs fresh per packet, sized to capn_size(&c), no shared buffer to overflow into. persist_load_snapshot (persist.c:2440 -> load_snapshot at 2325 -> load_snapshot_entities at 2222) is NOT the bug \u2014 it correctly rejects the corrupted file via one of its length-sanity -EIO guards (most likely persist.c:2240-2241, the job-frame payload_len-vs-file_size guard); format_version/job_count field-order misparse was considered and ruled out (load_snapshot consumes and validates format_version at persist.c:2399-2413 before ever calling load_snapshot_entities).",
"fix": "FIXED 2026-07-02 (ha.c, ha.h). Root cause pinned via live crc32 instrumentation (TRACE logs at both ha_send_snapshot_to_standby's send point and ha_handle_snapshot_chunk's receive point, correlated by snapshot_lsn+chunk_index): every chunk's CONTENT crossed the wire byte-for-byte intact (crc32 matched exactly for all 12 chunks) \u2014 the corruption was never in capnp encode/decode/transport at all. The real bug: OPCode_snapshotTransfer chunks of one transfer are dispatched across the vtask pool and are NOT guaranteed to arrive/execute in chunk_index order (live soak log showed arrival order 0,1,3,4,2,5,6,7,8,9,10,11 across cpu#0-3 workers), but ha_handle_snapshot_chunk appended every chunk's bytes to snap.part in ARRIVAL order (fopen \"ab\"/fwrite) instead of at the chunk's own chunk_offset (a field already carried on the wire but never used for anything). Reordered chunks landed at the wrong file position: same total byte count, wrong content from the first reordered chunk's offset onward \u2014 exactly the observed 'byte-shifted, resyncing later, nondeterministic magnitude' signature. Fix: (1) write each chunk via pwrite(fd, payload, len, chunk->chunk_offset) instead of append \u2014 order-independent and safe for concurrent writers (positioned writes to disjoint byte ranges of the same fd don't race). (2) Track completion via a new ha_state_t.snapshot_recv_count/snapshot_recv_total pair (guarded by the existing ha->lock) instead of finalizing on 'this call happens to carry is_last' \u2014 under out-of-order arrival, is_last can be processed before an earlier chunk; finalize now fires only once every chunk 0..N-1 has actually been written, and snapshot_recv_total is claimed (reset to 0) by whichever thread crosses the completion threshold so a late straggler chunk can never double-finalize. chunk_index==0 still resets both the stale-file unlink and the new counters (Req 4.4 unchanged). New RED->GREEN unit test test_snapshot_recv_out_of_order_chunks_assemble_correctly (test_config_repl.c) replays the exact non-sequential delivery order and asserts byte-identical assembly; RED confirmed via temporary revert (Expected 0 Was -22, job_count field corrupted by the misordered chunk boundary); GREEN restored, full controller suite clean (0 failures). Also added 2 new deterministic full-size (65536-byte) capnp encode/decode round-trip tests (test_wal_wire.c) that definitively cleared the capnp/transport layer before the real cause was found \u2014 permanent regression coverage, the prior test only covered a 300-byte payload. New xce_test snapverify/snapdiff subcommands (built as part of this investigation) were instrumental in diagnosing this live. Live-validated: 3/3 --force-snapshot rounds PASS (genuine 'HA: snapshot loaded ... full job/queue entity restoration' installs confirmed, zero divergence/loss) + 6-round --chaotic PASS.",

Two live hypotheses, unconfirmed: (a) harness-side race \u2014 ACKED_FILE's write (submit_n) and run_cold_restart_recovery's read (`committed=$(sort -u ACKED_FILE | grep -c .)`) are not synchronized against a submission whose ack arrives asynchronously after the harness moves on, so a genuinely-committed job simply never got recorded in ACKED_FILE \u2014 a test-harness bookkeeping gap, not a controller bug; (b) a genuine job-duplication bug on the controller's recovery/replay path creating an extra job entry with a fresh ID. Also observed in this run's ctrl-1.log: repeated unrelated `handle_jobsubmit fail to lock job 63-15--1-1015808[32751]` errors and one `job not durable (rc=-110) \u2014 rejecting submission` for a DIFFERENTLY-FORMATTED job ID (not this harness's `0-0-<timestamp>-0` convention) \u2014 almost certainly a stray unrelated process hitting the same cluster ports in the shared sandbox, not this test's own traffic, but flagged here in case it's connected.",

HOWEVER, both attempts DID hit a DIFFERENT, related bug in the exact same assert_job_count() check: right after the cold-restart-all election, the aggregate expect-jobs/joblist query itself FAILED outright with 'xce_joblist: Unknown error 10014' / 'could not determine job count' (a query FAILURE, not a wrong-but-successful count) \u2014 this is the identical client-side race as bug-1422 (libxce's failover retry loop, client_failover.c, can exhaust its 20-attempt budget in a rapid post-election retry storm and surface a stale E_XCE_STANDBY). Confirmed as a false alarm both times: the very next per-id assert_no_loss check (individual expect-job calls) found every job present. Fixed assert_job_count() with the same bounded-retry pattern used for bug-1422 (3 attempts, 2s settle) \u2014 re-run after the fix: 7 passed, 0 failed, clean. This closes the QUERY-FAILURE false-negative class in this check, and makes the harness reliable enough to actually catch the ORIGINAL extra-job symptom if it recurs (previously a query failure and a genuine extra-job count were indistinguishable at a glance; now the retry-exhausted case self-heals and no longer masks a real mismatch). The original 'extra job' phenomenon itself remains open/unconfirmed \u2014 needs a longer run (original was 1-of-5 full 8-round soaks) to have a realistic chance of firing again.",

Proven deterministically with a standalone repro (poisoned an iomgr_t with 0xAB, called the real iomgr_init()+iomgr_fini() from libxce.a) producing an identical backtrace (SSL_CTX_free <- iomgr_fini netio.c:1262 <- caller). gdb backtrace from the original report: SSL_CTX_free (libssl.so.3) <- iomgr_fini (netio.c:1262) <- test_vep_teardown_runs_after_inflight (test_ha_vep_teardown.c:271) <- UnityDefaultTestRun <- test_ha_vep_teardown (test_ha_vep_teardown.c:630) <- main (controller_test.c). Not a double-free/UAF and not a cross-test state leak -- iomgr_set_ssl_ctx() is never called anywhere in test_ha_vep_teardown.c, so no real SSL_CTX ownership is even in play; it is purely uninitialized-memory read.",
"fix": "FIXED 2026-07-09: src/lib/netio.c iomgr_init() now explicitly sets `iomgr->ssl_ctx = NULL;` and `iomgr->worker = 0;` before touching lock/epoll_fd, so iomgr_init() fully establishes iomgr_t's invariants itself instead of assuming the caller pre-zeroed the struct -- mirrors the same file's do_endpoint_init(), which already fully initializes every endpoint_t field rather than relying on calloc. Verified safe for all production callers (xcectx.c, myapp.c, cluster.c): every one calls iomgr_set_ssl_ctx() AFTER iomgr_init(), never before, so clearing ssl_ctx in iomgr_init cannot clobber a caller-supplied value. No test file was modified -- the library-level fix protects every current and future caller, including the 4 unguarded stack declarations in test_ha_vep_teardown.c. Verified: (1) standalone ASAN repro poisoning the stack before iomgr_init now shows ssl_ctx == NULL post-init and iomgr_fini() returns cleanly instead of crashing; (2) rebuilt controller_unit_test and ran the full suite (no --run filter) repeatedly under ASAN (detect_leaks=0) with zero SIGSEGVs across all runs -- one full run captured 265 Tests / 0 Failures / 0 Ignored, with all 6 tests in the test_ha_vep_teardown group (including test_vep_teardown_runs_after_inflight) passing their own assertions, not just failing to crash.",

"root_cause": "DEFINITIVELY ROOT-CAUSED 2026-07-03: this was never a source-code bug. It was a stale/corrupted incremental-build artifact in the main worktree's shared `build/` directory, which had been incrementally `ninja -C build`-rebuilt across 5 sequential tasks (1.1-1.5) without ever a fresh `meson setup`. Proof (four independent measurements, isolated via separate `git worktree add` + fresh `meson setup` + `ninja`, never mutating the main worktree in place): (1) pre-feature commit 17b210c, fresh build: 0 failures, 3/3 runs. (2) commit 9b4b805 (task-1.4 HEAD, IDENTICAL source to the failing main-worktree binary), fresh build in a separate worktree: 0 failures, 3/3 runs. (3) main worktree's stale incrementally-rebuilt `build/`, same 9b4b805 commit: 100% failure, 8/8 runs across two investigation sessions. (4) main worktree after `rm -rf build && meson setup --buildtype=debug -Db_sanitize=address && ninja -C build` (full clean rebuild, same source, same commit): 0 failures, 3/3 runs. This conclusively isolates the failure to the incremental build state, not the code. This is a DIFFERENT gotcha from bug-924 (which is about the `meson test` driver hanging on overlayfs fdatasync) -- this one is `ninja -C build`'s incremental compilation silently producing a wrong/stale binary despite reporting success, likely a header-dependency tracking gap on this overlayfs-backed worktree. The prior 'CLOSED' (task 1.4, 70/70) and 'REOPENED' (task 1.5, 10/10 fail) statuses were BOTH real, contradictory, correct measurements of the SAME source code in DIFFERENT incremental-build states -- neither implementer did anything wrong; the build itself was non-deterministic relative to source content.",
"fix": "CLOSED 2026-07-03 (high confidence, this time backed by cross-checked fresh-build isolation, not just an in-place re-run). No source-code fix needed -- `test_commit_advance_retry_clears_push_before_commit_fence` has apparently been correct since at least commit 3ecb724 (pre-feature). ACTION ITEM for all future tasks in this series: do not trust `ninja -C build` incremental results alone when a test result looks surprising or contradicts a very recent prior measurement on the same commit -- rebuild with `rm -rf build && meson setup build --buildtype=debug -Db_sanitize=address && ninja -C build` (or isolate via a throwaway `git worktree add` + fresh setup) before concluding a regression exists.

Both the scheduler and apiserver are purely event-driven off this hook with no periodic reconciliation, so the stranded siblings (real, durable, present in c->jobmgr) were invisible until the next controller restart replayed the WAL.",
"fix": "Moved the construct_rc<0 early-return in handle_jobsubmit() (src/controller/job.c) to AFTER the jlist-build + xce_run_hooks(HOOK_AFTER_EVENT, HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_NEW, ...) block instead of before it. The jlist-build loop already only finds jobs that key_find() locates in c->jobmgr, so a failed-to-construct element is naturally and silently absent from jlist with no extra bookkeeping -- the hook now fires unconditionally for every successfully constructed element regardless of a sibling's construct_rc, and the client-facing reply still reports the construct_rc error afterward. Added regression test test_jobsubmit_array_partial_construct_failure_notifies_survivors in src/controller/testsuite/test_commit_barrier_reply.c: drives handle_jobsubmit with a 2-element array on a worker pthread, ACKs element 0's WAL entry, then deterministically reproduces the TOCTOU outcome by inserting a stand-in job directly into c->jobmgr for element 1's jobid (via the existing cbrp_make_job helper) strictly after jobid_range_exists() has already run and strictly before the construction loop can run (element 1's commit is still pending on a withheld ACK) -- makeJob_()'s own key_find() then legitimately returns EEXIST for element 1. A new test hook capture (cbrp_jobnew_capture_fn, registered via xce_add_hook) records every jobid delivered through HOOK_AFTER_EVENT/HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_NEW so the test can assert element 0 was both constructed AND notified despite element 1 failing. RED-phase confirmed against the pre-fix code (job 9201 construction failed with errno=17/EEXIST as designed, and the notification assertion for job 9200 failed as predicted). CORRECTION (round-2 review): under the standard verification invocation (--run test_commit_barrier_reply, the full 25-test group), the failing TEST_ASSERT_TRUE_MESSAGE at test_commit_barrier_reply.c longjmps past this test's own inline cbrp_teardown() call (Unity TEST_ABORT semantics) -- the SAME longjmp-past-teardown pathology already documented for round 1's withheld-commit test, not a clean assertion FAIL. It leaks live persist/commit-engine background threads into the next test's setup, producing a deterministic HANG under the full-group command (reproduced 3/3 times, both threads blocked in futex_do_wait). A clean, fast FAIL was only observed when this test was isolated from the other 24 tests in the group -- that isolated form is what the original write-up described. GREEN after the fix (reordering removes the failure entirely, so this hang mode never triggers in the fixed code): both pre-existing single-element jobsubmit tests and the full 25-test test_commit_barrier_reply group plus the full controller_unit_test binary pass (0 failures) via the standard --run invocation. Hardened afterward: the test now captures its assertion-relevant booleans (cbrp_job_exists/cbrp_jobnew_notified) into locals and calls cbrp_teardown() unconditionally before asserting on the captured locals, so a future regression in this exact test can no longer skip cleanup and hang sibling tests.",

"root_cause": "Found live via the new raft-apply-decoupling task 7.2 kill-mid-fact-stream soak scenario (--factstream), reproduced 4/4 runs (ASAN debug build, paced-wave ASAN build, release build, and a cleanup-suppressed debug postmortem run) in this sandboxed environment. cluster_init_phase2() calls cluster_open_listener() (which starts accepting network I/O, including replicated/catch-up WAL traffic from an already-serving primary) BEFORE persist_recover() runs its boot-time apply-correctness verification (task 5.1, Req 8.1/8.2). Under a slow/contended boot (observed: persist_recover firing ~36s after process start instead of the normal ~5s, plausibly due to heavy concurrent nix-develop/test-process CPU contention in this sandbox), a standby's listener can already be live and processing real traffic for tens of seconds before its own persist_recover() call finally executes. persist_verify_apply_correctness() (persist.c ~3597) reads p->last_applied_lsn and live-queries count_jobmgr_entries(p->cluster) AFTER replay_wal completes -- both of these are also mutated by the LIVE apply pump (raft-apply-decoupling task 6.1, wired through commit_resolve_pending) reacting to replicated commit-advance events. If live traffic is already flowing and being applied through the live pump DURING the extended pre-persist_recover window, the live-read 'actual' values used by persist_verify_apply_correctness can reflect state beyond what persist_recover's own single WAL-scan pass computed as 'expected', producing a DIVERGENT verdict even though no real apply defect exists -- confirmed via ctrlstatus probes showing committedLsn identical (79) and no actual data loss across all 3 nodes; the fence engaged correctly per its own fail-loud design (stayed alive, non-promotable, kept retrying) but two of three nodes (including the node that went on to win the next election, term=5, first_boot=1) were fenced at the exact moment persist_recover ran. This matches task 5.1's own documented residual-risk note (tasks.md Implementation Notes, task 5.1 entry): 'the position check is diagnostically tautological for THIS SPECIFIC call site today... this will change once task 6's live apply pump gives expectation and actual state a real chance to diverge across threads/time' -- that predicted future divergence has now materialized under a slow-boot + concurrent-live-traffic combination that only a scenario driving traffic this early/aggressively after cluster boot (the factstream scenario) exercises; existing soak scenarios (chaotic/sequential/force-snapshot) submit far fewer jobs, more slowly, and do not reliably land traffic inside a slow node's pre-recovery window. REFINED after further reproduction (10/10 runs total, across ASAN/release builds and job counts from 8 to 20): the trigger is specifically the RESTART/catch-up path, not the initial multi-node cold boot. A standalone control test (3 nodes, no kill, 20s settle before any traffic) submitted jobs and drove jstart/jfinish/jfail cleanly with zero APPLY_DIVERGENT -- confirming the race needs a node that was DOWN while the cluster kept moving (i.e. an actual failover), not merely a fast cold boot: the returning node's persist_recover()/cluster_init_phase2 vtask must complete while it is ALSO receiving a compressed catch-up replication burst covering everything it missed while down, and that burst's volume is inherent to 'kill mid-fact-stream' (the whole point of the scenario) -- a run-ha-soak.sh-side pacing fix cannot eliminate the trigger the way it did for the (separately real but distinct) initial-boot instance the settle-delay mitigation addresses. Reproduced identically down to 8 fact-stream jobs with 2-job/1s-gap waves, so the trigger threshold is low. This plausibly explains why no prior soak scenario in this spec's history (chaotic/sequential/force-snapshot, all using NJOBS=3 by default, un-paced but small) ever surfaced it: none combine a real kill-during-traffic failover with this much job+fact volume until raft-apply-decoupling task 7.2's factstream scenario. Also independently added test.c's print_jobinfo state_raw hex field (task 7.2) and confirmed via a live probe that apply_job_fail_transition correctly applies EXIT|PERR bits even when job_state_str's RUN-checked-first priority ordering hides them in the pretty-printed state string (job showed 'state: RUN' / 'state_raw: 0x106' after a jstart+jfail-without-jfinish sequence) -- a separate, minor, likely pre-existing (not introduced by raft-apply-decoupling) display-only quirk in job_state_str, also not fixed here (out of boundary), but which the factstream phantom-check was updated to work around by reading state_raw instead of the ambiguous pretty string.",
"fix": "FIXED (round 2, raft-apply-decoupling task 7.2 review remediation). Root cause confirmed exactly as hypothesized in the prior entry's candidate #2: persist_verify_apply_correctness() compared a WAL-scan-derived 'expected' snapshot against a LIVE re-read of last_applied_lsn/count_jobmgr_entries(), while TWO live mutation paths could write those same values concurrently -- the live apply pump (persist_apply_pump_run, driven by persist_apply_pump_kick off any of commit.c's 6 committed_lsn-advance sites) and the standby live-replication apply path (ha_apply_single_entry / ha_apply_term_entry_via_library in ha.c). Fixed via a new _Atomic bool persist_t.recovery_complete gate (persist.h/persist.c): persist_apply_pump_kick() now no-ops while the gate is closed; ha_apply_single_entry/ha_apply_term_entry_via_library now skip ONLY the in-memory apply_wal_entry() call while closed (durability write + replication ACK + applied_lsn advance are never gated, preserving the existing persist-before-apply-before-ACK contract and bug-1043's durability/materialization decoupling precedent). persist_recover() closes the gate at entry and reopens it (plus issues one deliberate persist_apply_pump_kick catch-up pass) right before returning, regardless of verdict -- covering any direct unit-test caller. ROUND 2 FINDING during live verification: this alone was insufficient -- a node stuck retrying its own election as a losing/timing-out candidate can receive and durably apply live-replicated entries via the ungated (persist_init default=true) path for tens of seconds BEFORE cluster_init_phase2() ever calls persist_recover() for the first time, reproducing the identical false-DIVERGENT symptom via an earlier entry point that persist_recover()'s own bracket cannot see. Closed by adding persist_mark_recovery_pending(&c.persist) in myapp_run() (myapp.c), called immediately after persist_init()/persist_start() succeed and BEFORE ha_start_election_async()/cluster_run() can process any network traffic -- closing the gate from the earliest safe moment in the real boot sequence. persist_init()'s default stays TRUE (ungated) so none of this spec's ~20 existing unit-test fixtures that construct a persist_t directly (bypassing myapp_run entirely) are affected; persist_mark_recovery_pending is never called outside myapp.c. Verified: live 3-node factstream soak (2 rounds, kill+restart both rounds) now PASSes clean with zero APPLY_DIVERGENT/UNRECOVERABLE across 5 persist_recover() calls (2 initial-boot delayed by the SAME pre-existing election-instability condition that originally exposed the round-2 gap, 2 post-kill restarts, all APPLY_CLEAN); broader controller_unit_test sweep (23 groups incl. test_apply_correctness_verification's 3 real-divergence tests, test_apply_pump/_integration, test_ha_core_safety, test_demotion_convergence) shows zero new failures (only the 2 pre-existing, documented task-6.1/6.2 test_commit_barrier_reply.c failures remain, task 7.3's job). Real-divergence detection independently re-confirmed intact (test_apply_divergent_decision_forces_unconditional_fence, test_apply_divergent_loud_fence_sets_sticky_flag_and_stays_alive, test_real_replay_divergence_sets_unrecoverable_fence all still PASS).",

"file": "src/controller/persist.c (apply-correctness verification) + src/controller/ha.c (PreVote freshness gate) + WAL duplicate-submit mechanism (unlocated)",
"root_cause": "Direct log/WAL analysis (waldump on the affected node's data dir) during a live repro superseded two prior, less-precise theories filed as bug-1418 (a shell-script process-stacking artifact, unrelated and separately fixed; and an unverified ha->term/ha->raft.term \"term desync\" claim that does not match the code -- raft_begin_pre_vote/ha_start_prevote_async both read s->term == ha->raft.term directly, there is no separate stale-field read on the PreVote path).\n\nACTUAL mechanism observed: waldump on ctrl-3's WAL (the node with the longest/freshest log after the chaotic kill sequence) showed \"duplicate submits: 3 (byte-identical: 0)\" -- the SAME jobid appended to the WAL twice with DIFFERING payloads (different subtime, different CRC), e.g. lsn=13 and lsn=14 both jobid=0-0-1783418222-0 but distinct subtime/PCRC. This is NOT bug-845's mechanism (that fix, landed 2026-06-23, was for byte-IDENTICAL double-hook-registration dupes and is confirmed still working -- these are non-identical). count_jobmgr_entries() legitimately sees these as 2 distinct job-table mutations (or the entity count otherwise fails to match the WAL-replay-derived expectation), so persist_recover()'s post-replay apply-correctness check (task 5.1, Req 8.1/8.2) correctly fires APPLY_DIVERGENT -> the loud, sticky, non-promotable fence (raft-apply-decoupling Req 8.3/8.4) -- this fencing behavior is WORKING AS DESIGNED, not itself a bug.\n\nThe resulting LIVENESS bug: with the fenced node holding the only sufficiently-fresh (longest) log, the other surviving node can never win the PreVote freshness gate against it (correctly, per Raft/PreVote semantics -- it really is behind), while the fenced node itself can win Raft elections (quorum_reached/became_leader observed at terms 27/30/32 in logs) but its own raft_cb_become_leader promotion gate refuses CTRL_PRIMARY every time (apply_divergent=1). With the third node dead (killed by the chaotic driver) and never restarted long enough to catch up, NO node can ever become primary again -- a genuine, reproducible liveness deadlock, distinct from (and downstream of) the WAL duplicate-submit root cause. Confirmed via direct log grep across ctrl-1.log/ctrl-3.log at the exact stall timestamps (09:57:16 divergence detected, repeating \"PreVote DENIED ... reason=freshness\" and \"promotion REFUSED ... apply_divergent=1\" through 10:05+); NOT root-caused via speculation.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-07-07). Layer (1), the WAL duplicate-non-identical-submit mechanism: raft-apply-decoupling task 3.1 deferred job/entity construction in c->jobmgr until AFTER commit (apply_committed_entry, post-commit apply pump), but jobid_range_exists() -- the sole dup guard in handle_jobsubmit -- only checks c->jobmgr. A submission that is durably WAL-appended and awaiting its commit outcome does not yet exist in c->jobmgr, so a client-side retry for the SAME jobid (XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL/xce_failover_classify's idempotent-replay contract resends on a transport error or failover-mid-flight) sailed straight past the guard and appended a second, non-identical WAL_JOB_SUBMIT entry (different subtime/CRC) for the same jobid -- exactly the 'duplicate submits: N (byte-identical: 0)' signature waldump showed. Fix: src/controller/job.c adds a process-lifetime in-flight-jobid-range registry (s_inflight_submits, guarded by s_inflight_submits_lock) that handle_jobsubmit atomically check-and-claims (inflight_range_try_add) immediately after the existing jobid_range_exists check, and releases (inflight_range_remove) from jobsubmit_async_ctx_release. Regression test test_jobsubmit_resubmit_before_resolution_rejected_no_dup_wal_entry added to test_commit_barrier_reply.c (RED->GREEN confirmed). Committed fe4352f.\n\nLayer (2), the PreVote-freshness/apply-divergence liveness deadlock: initially framed as needing a fundamental safety/liveness design tradeoff among 3 unpalatable options (force-promote a divergent node / truncate committed-but-unapplied entries / relax the freshness gate) -- this framing was WRONG, corrected after user pushback (\"kill-mid-apply should be recoverable per Raft protocol\", \"I do not think break FSM invariant is a good idea\"). Root-caused instead to a concrete, scoped bug: persist_checkpoint() (persist.c:2261-2263, now fixed) stamped p->checkpoint_lsn from p->current_lsn (the physical WAL append tip) instead of p->last_applied_lsn (the true 'jobmgr reflects up through here' cursor, persist.h:344-363 documents these as DISTINCT once apply is decoupled from commit). write_snapshot() serializes live c->jobmgr, so a checkpoint taken while the async apply pump lags behind the WAL tip mislabels the snapshot: on restart, last_applied_lsn is re-seeded FROM checkpoint_lsn and replay resumes strictly above it, silently skipping committed-but-not-yet-applied entries that jobmgr never actually received -- the real mechanism behind kill-mid-apply producing a permanent APPLY_DIVERGENT fence. Confirmed apply_committed_entry() is fully deterministic/idempotent (rules out non-determinism) and write_snapshot() is crash-atomic at the file level (temp+fdatasync+rename, rules out torn-file corruption) -- the bug is purely a mislabeled watermark, not a structural divergence. Fix: persist_checkpoint() now reads checkpoint_lsn from last_applied_lsn and holds apply_pump_lock across the label-capture + write_snapshot() call so the label and the jobmgr state it describes are captured atomically w.r.t. the live apply pump (the pump only ever moves last_applied_lsn/jobmgr forward, so freezing it here rules out the label ever claiming more than jobmgr actually holds). test_checkpoint_sets_checkpoint_lsn updated (now simulates apply catch-up explicitly, since a cluster-less unit-test persist_t never runs the apply pump); new regression test test_checkpoint_lsn_tracks_last_applied_not_current_lsn added to test_persist_checkpoint.c (RED confirmed pre-fix: checkpoint_lsn took the WAL tip=7 instead of the simulated applied cursor=2; GREEN after). Full 78-group/782-test controller_unit_test sweep: 0 failures.\n\nADDENDUM (2026-07-08, post-fix re-soak): a fresh chaotic soak on a rebuilt binary (both layers included) cleared rounds 1-4 (previously stalled at round 4) but still hit a fresh APPLY_DIVERGENT fence at round 5. Deep dive (waldump + log correlation + code trace) proved BOTH layer 1 and layer 2 are working correctly and are NOT the cause: added test_jobsubmit_resubmit_after_full_resolution_rejected_no_second_job (test_commit_barrier_reply.c) proving the post-resolution dedup window is also airtight (-EEXIST, no second WAL entry) -- both known dedup windows are provably race-free. The round-5 duplicate jobid was traced instead to a TEST-HARNESS-ONLY defect: xce_test (test.c:1868) hardcoded idgen(&idctx, 0, 0, ...) (clusterId=apiserverId=0) and run-ha-soak.sh's submit_jobs() spawns a fresh xce_test process per retry attempt, resetting idgen's static idctx.sequence to 0 each time -- two unrelated job submissions from two fresh processes landing in the same wall-clock second collide on an identical jobid (ts+tag+seq all equal). Confirmed NOT a production risk: apiserver's GenerateJobID (clib.go) holds one process-lifetime idgen_ctx_t via sync.Once and each deployed apiserver instance has its own distinct apiserverId, so config.h's jobid bit-layout (cluster/apiserver bits) already partitions production's namespace. Fixed by folding getpid() into the harness's apiserverId (test.c:1868) so cross-process collisions become structurally impossible there too; filed as bug-1420. bug-1419 itself (both production layers) stands as correctly fixed -- this addendum exists so a future session doesn't misread the round-5 re-soak stall as evidence layer 1/2 are insufficient.",

Root cause traced to client_failover.c's xcecli_retry_next/xcecli_retry_decide (client_failover.c:305-319): E_XCE_STANDBY classifies as XCE_FO_RETRY_NOW (client_failover.c:59-60, prompt rotate, no backoff), and the 20-attempt retry budget (3 masters) should reliably reach the real primary \u2014 but when the WHOLE budget is exhausted while every recent classification was RETRY_NOW (as opposed to RETRY_BACKOFF), xcecli_retry_decide's budget-exhaustion branch (line 312-318) does NOT override *rc the way it does for RETRY_BACKOFF exhaustion (which maps to the distinct -E_XCE_NOT_READY, line 316-317) \u2014 it just returns false with *rc left at whatever the last attempt's raw status was (here, a stray E_XCE_STANDBY from a standby hit during the rapid post-election retry storm). verify_no_loss() (run-ha-soak.sh) then did a single one-shot check with zero retry at the driver level, unlike the job-submit loop just above it in the same file which already retries on this exact 'primary likely just promoted, regaining write-quorum' condition (run-ha-soak.sh:483-486).

Did not touch client_failover.c (the battle-tested libxce-failover retry/rotation library with many other production consumers) \u2014 fixing at the test-driver level is safer and fully local.

This half was already fixed independently of bug-1418's own tracked fix. (2) APPLY-DIVERGENCE LIVENESS DEADLOCK \u2014 the promotion gate (ha.c raft_cb_become_leader ~line 1130, and promotion_fence_timeout_fn ~line 876) unconditionally refuses promotion while persist_apply_verdict()==APPLY_DIVERGENT, by deliberate design (raft-apply-decoupling task 5.3, Req 8.4: a divergent local materialization must never be trusted to self-clear via any live/structural condition, including durable_floor>=cluster_hwm \u2014 only a fresh persist_recover() replay may clear it). The buglog's own previously-proposed fix (relax the gate to self-apply when durable_floor>=cluster_hwm) would have violated this intentional invariant and risked serving genuinely divergent state to clients. Instead, raft-apply-decoupling's tasks 5.1 (checkpoint_lsn mislabeled from WAL tip instead of the logical applied cursor, causing a false APPLY_DIVERGENT on an ordinary crash-during-checkpoint) and 7.2/bug-1416 (a boot-time TOCTOU where a returning node's persist_recover() replay-verify raced the live apply pump / live-replication apply path, producing a false APPLY_DIVERGENT on the restart/catch-up path specifically \u2014 the exact scenario bug-1418's residual occurrence hit: 'apply pump lagged behind WAL tip during kill') closed the false-positive detection paths that were producing spurious APPLY_DIVERGENT verdicts in the first place.

"fix": "[UPDATE 2026-08-16] Live investigation (single-node deploy via /xce-deploy-ha, controller_unit_test's own fix build): found a RELIABLE reproduction recipe the original ~2/9-sequential-attempts description never had, and narrowed the root cause to a specific mechanism, but did NOT land a fix -- reporting findings honestly per the explicit scope of this investigation pass.\n\nRELIABLE REPRO (not sequential -- CONCURRENT): deploy a fresh single-node cluster, poll the log for CTRL_PRIMARY, then fire 9 xce_test client processes (each: connect + one jobsub) SIMULTANEOUSLY (backgrounded, not sequential) immediately after election. Reproduced in 3 of 4 rounds (1-3 of 9 concurrent clients failing per round, closely matching the original ~2/9 ratio) -- 0/45 reproductions when the SAME 9 attempts were fired sequentially instead (one xce_test process at a time). Concurrency at connect time, not raw timing after election, is the actual trigger.\n\nSYMPTOM, precisely: the failing client's xcecli_jobsubmit() (client.c, wrapped in XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL) returns rc>=0 (success-shaped, NOT a negative error) after exactly ~10.0-10.1s, with the output jobid=0 (never written) instead of the submitted JobId -- test.c's cmd_jobsub (bug-786's own guard) correctly catches this as 'no clean ack' rather than misreporting success, so no data is actually lost/corrupted -- but the client hangs ~10s before getting a clear answer, matching the bug's own description exactly.\n\nCONFIRMED CLIENT-SIDE, not server-side: cross-referenced the controller's own log (fresh --logfile per round) against the 9 concurrent attempts -- server-side WAL only ever shows 8 job-submit entries committed (lsn sequence has no gaps, no admission-cap rejection WARN, no error of any kind) when 9 concurrent clients attempted -- the failing 9th request never reaches handle_jobsubmit at all. Ruled out the obvious admission-cap suspect: commit.c's COMMIT_MODE_WAIT admission control (cap=n_vcpus-VTASK_LIVENESS_RESERVED=3 on this 4-vcpu deploy) never logged its 'WAIT rejected, admission cap exhausted' WARN in any reproduction -- 8 concurrent WAITs completing well under the cap is plausible given each takes <100ms server-side once received.\n\nTHE ~10s NUMBER, precisely sourced: xceapi.c's xce_jobsubmit() (the innermost call XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL wraps) has a HARDCODED cbuf_deadline_10s() wait on cbuf_timedget waiting for a reply to land in the single-slot ctx->wbuf. Read cbuf_timedget itself (mylock.c) -- confirmed CORRECT, it returns -ETIMEDOUT (negative) on a genuine timeout, which xce_jobsubmit correctly propagates as a negative rc. So a bare cbuf_timedget timeout cannot by itself explain the observed rc>=0-with-jobid=0 shape; something in the retry/rotate/recover layer ABOVE it must be involved.\n\nNARROWED SUSPECT (not confirmed): client_internal.h's own documented CI1 hazard -- 'handle_disconnect may have injected a stale status into the single-slot ctx->wbuf ... xcecli_ctx_recover drains any pending entry with a non-blocking cbuf_tryget so the next attempt's cbuf_get cannot consume a prior-attempt reply' -- but this drain only runs when xce_failover_rotate() succeeds (client_failover.c:130-153, mirrored by xcecli_retry_next per its own doc comment: 'only recover when the rotate succeeded'). On this single-candidate cluster, rotate reconnects to the SAME (only) node via a real xce_ctx_reconnect() -- plausible this usually succeeds (ruling out the simplest 'rotate never succeeds on single-node, drain never runs' theory) but NOT independently verified under the exact concurrent-connect contention this repro needs; a transient reconnect failure specifically during the connection-establishment storm (9 simultaneous TLS handshakes against a listener seconds old) could leave a stale wbuf entry undrained, which a LATER retry's cbuf_timedget could then either (a) consume immediately (fast, not 10s -- doesn't match) or (b) never resolve at all if the drain path interacts badly with an in-flight send, leaving the single wbuf slot permanently empty until the full 10s deadline. Did not instrument (fprintf/gdb) the actual attempt count or wbuf state during a live failing run to confirm this mechanism specifically -- xce_test's own -vvv flag produced no additional client-side retry/rotate trace output (goes through a different, unwired logger in this CLI context), and adding real instrumentation would need a fresh lib rebuild + re-repro cycle not completed in this pass.\n\nNOT YET DONE: instrument xcecli_retry_next/xce_jobsubmit directly (attempt count, wbuf drain outcome, rotate rc, per-attempt elapsed) and re-run the now-reliable concurrent-burst repro to catch the exact mechanism in the act -- this is the recommended next step, using the repro recipe above (no gdb needed; the reproduction is now reliable enough for print-based debugging). Confirmed unrelated to raft-apply-decoupling task 6.1's apply-pump fix (reproduces identically on that spec's pre-fix and post-fix binaries per the original entry) and to this session's bug-1428/1426/1474/1472-remainder fixes (none touch xceapi.c/client.c/client_failover.c's client-side retry path).\n\n[Original entry]\nNOT FIXED. Worked around via retry for task 7.4's benchmarking purposes only. Needs a dedicated root-cause investigation with the same live-repro rigor bug-1416 got (gdb-attach via GDB_WRAP seam, or targeted debug logging around the commit-wait barrier right after a fresh single-node election).\n\n[UPDATE 2026-08-16, part 2] FIXED. Root-caused via static code trace (no gdb/instrumentation needed after all): XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL's idempotent-replay rule (client_failover.c, xce_failover_classify -- 'a duplicate on a re-sent write means the replay guard already applied our write, treat as success') can normalize a retried resend that hits the server's EEXIST/inflight-collision rejection into overall success (rc==0) -- but that rejection reply carries NO payload (handle_jobsubmit's EEXIST/inflight-collision branches reply with RequestReply_data_nodata, job.c:1441-1467), so xce_jobsubmit() (xceapi.c) never populates its *jobid output on the winning (dup) attempt, and never did on the earlier failing attempt either (its raw status was already negative). Net: xcecli_jobsubmit() can return rc>=0 with *jobid left at the caller's initial value (0) -- matching the confirmed symptom exactly (rc>=0, jobid=0, ~10.0-10.1s: one full 10s cbuf_timedget deadline on the failing first attempt, then a fast dup-rejection reply on the resend).\n\nFIX (TDD): added jobsubmit_finalize_jobid(uint64_t* jobid, uint64_t submitted_jobid, int overall_rc) (src/lib/client_internal.h declaration, src/lib/client.c definition), called from xcecli_jobsubmit() right after XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL returns. Sets *jobid = submit->jobid (the CLIENT-generated id already on the wire -- job ids are client-generated via idgen(); the controller commits/echoes this exact value verbatim on every genuine success reply, bug-786/job.c:1439) whenever overall_rc >= 0, otherwise leaves *jobid untouched. Deliberately placed at the jobsubmit-specific wrapper layer, not the generic classify/decide layer (which is correctly type-erased and has no concept of jobid) -- test.c's cmd_jobsub (bug-786's own gate, comparing returned jobid == locally-generated jobsubmit.jobid) was ALREADY the right verification signal and needed no changes. 3 new pure unit tests in test_libxce_retry.c (test_jobsubmit_finalize_populates_jobid_on_success/leaves_jobid_untouched_on_failure/null_jobid_safe) -- socket-free, following this codebase's established direct-state-simulation test style for I/O-adjacent logic (test_netio_on_connected.c's precedent) rather than mocking a live connection.\n\nLIVE VALIDATION: full ASAN rebuild (0 compiler errors; controller_unit_test 1101 tests, 2 pre-existing unrelated test_config_repl.c failures; libxce test suite 1/1 OK, all 3 new tests PASS). Deployed a fresh single-node cluster and ran the same concurrent-burst repro as the original investigation (fresh election -> 9 simultaneous xce_test jobsub clients) for 5 rounds / 45 total clients: 0 'no clean ack' failures, 45/45 clean acks with jobid matching the submitted id (vs. the original repro's 1-3/9 failures in 3 of 4 rounds pre-fix). Honest caveat: this is probabilistic/timing-dependent (like the original repro), so 45/45 clean is strong but not airtight proof the exact race window is unreachable -- the fix is correct by construction regardless (it closes the *jobid gap for EVERY path that can produce rc>=0, not just the one race that was reproduced), so residual risk is limited to a still-undiscovered SEPARATE mechanism producing the same symptom, not this one going unfixed.",

"fix": "FIXED (TDD RED->GREEN). trim_wal_segments() now caps its trim floor at the local apply pump's own progress (last_applied_lsn), not just remote standby-acked positions: floor = min(repl_trim_lsn's standby/disconnect-guard floor, last_applied_lsn+1). The +1 matters -- repl_trim_lsn's floor treats equality as 'still needed, preserve' (a standby acked through LSN N might still need that segment for retry/resync), but the LOCAL apply cursor's equality case means the opposite: last_applied_lsn==N means this process is DONE with entry N and will never re-read it, so a segment starting exactly at N is safe to delete. Feeding last_applied_lsn+1 into the same shared 'seg_start_lsn < floor' comparison gets correct delete-on-equal semantics for this term without a second, differently-shaped check. This closes the real gap: apply_pump_read_entry()'s fast-path cache holds an open fd into whatever segment it's currently reading; POSIX unlink-keeps-fd-alive meant a lagging pump could keep reading via that stale fd even after trim_wal_segments deleted the segment out from under it (no immediate corruption, since the fd's data was still valid) -- but a FRESH read of the same range (a restart's persist_recover() replay, or the pump's own cache falling back to its slow path after an unrelated miss) would find the segment already gone, producing a genuine APPLY_DIVERGENT-class gap between what the live process quietly caught up to and what a fresh read of disk state can see. Regression test (test_e2e_checkpoint.c's test_trim_guard_preserves_unapplied_local_segments): no standbys registered (so the pre-fix floor alone would allow trimming everything below the active segment) but last_applied_lsn deliberately lags behind one segment -- proves the already-applied segment IS trimmed (no unnecessary retention) while the not-yet-applied one is preserved (the actual guard). Also had to advance last_applied_lsn in the 3 pre-existing trim tests in the same file (test_checkpoint_wal_trim_after_checkpoint, test_trim_guard_preserves_standby_segments, test_trim_without_standbys_proceeds_normally), which call persist_wal_async directly (bypassing the whole apply path) and so never advance last_applied_lsn on their own -- without the added stamp, this fix would have correctly-but-unexpectedly blocked ALL trimming in those fixtures, since last_applied_lsn defaults to 0. Full controller_unit_test suite: 1099 tests, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures (bug-1561), no regressions.\n\n[Original entry]\nNOT FIXED \u2014 deliberately deferred. task 7.4's own scope explicitly excluded redesigning trim_wal_segments's retention-floor awareness of apply-pump lag; documented via an accurate code comment instead.

Fixed by making worker_from_capnp() (worker.c) return 1 specifically for a genuine new-worker creation (discarding restore_worker()'s raw idx, which can legitimately be 0 and would have collided with the update-applied case) and propagating that rc through apply_committed_entry() instead of the hardcoded 0 -- verified no caller of either function depended on the exact prior return value (only sign and -EEXIST were ever checked). replay_wal() tallies apply_rc==1 for WAL_WORKER_CTRL exactly like it already does for WAL_JOB_SUBMIT. New regression tests: test_verify_apply_correctness_detects_worker_count_mismatch (test_apply_correctness_verification.c, mirrors the existing job-count-mismatch test) proves a worker-count divergence is now caught as APPLY_DIVERGENT -- RED before this fix (no worker check existed at all), GREEN after. Also updated test_apply_committed_entry.c's test_ace_worker_ctrl_join_restores_and_notifies, which asserted rc==0 for a genuine JOIN creation under the old (now-corrected) contract -- now asserts rc==1 with an explanatory message. Full controller_unit_test suite: 1097 tests, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures (bug-1561), no regressions.\n\n[Original entry]\nNOT FIXED. Extend persist_verify_apply_correctness() with a worker-count check mirroring count_jobmgr_entries() if/when a worker-creation divergence needs to be closed (task 5.1's own forward note).",

"fix": "FIXED (characterized then TDD RED->GREEN, per the entry's own 3-step plan). Characterized the exact window: persist_register_pending_apply()'s self-heal check (an UNLOCKED read of last_applied_lsn) ran BEFORE acquiring pending_applies_lock, separate from the locked insert that followed. Window: this thread reads last_applied_lsn (sees 'not yet applied') -> BEFORE it locks and inserts, the apply pump's thread advances last_applied_lsn past this lsn AND completes its own persist_take_pending_apply(lsn) call (finding nothing, since this thread hasn't inserted yet) -> this thread then inserts a node the pump will never revisit -- permanently orphaned, identical failure mode to bug-1415 (a hang, on_applied never fires) via a different, narrower trigger window. Production reachability: yes -- persist_register_pending_apply() is called from a different thread/vtask than the apply pump's walk (commit.c's continuation dispatch vs persist_apply_pump_run, per the function's own pre-existing doc comment), with no synchronization between them before this fix beyond the already-locked insert. Fix: moved the self-heal check inside pending_applies_lock, so the whole check-then-(insert-or-self-heal) sequence is one atomic critical section against persist_take_pending_apply's own locked scan-and-remove -- either this thread's check now runs before the pump's take (sees 'not yet applied', inserts, and the pump's later take, now forced to wait on the same lock, finds the freshly-inserted node) or after (sees 'already applied', self-heals instead of inserting, and the pump's take correctly finds nothing) -- never the interleaved gap that orphaned it. Regression test (test_apply_pump.c's test_register_pending_apply_race_against_concurrent_apply_self_heals): deterministic reproduction via controlled state (a main thread holding pending_applies_lock forces the register call to observe last_applied_lsn only after the lock's own update, removing dependence on real-time race timing) -- RED under the pre-fix code (on_applied never fires, node orphaned on pending_applies), GREEN under the fix (self-heals correctly, no orphan).

So the answering node's ha->role was genuinely CTRL_STANDBY at the moment ha_dispatch_gate ran -- this was NOT a client-side discovery/retry-budget problem (ruled out: XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL's retry loop -- src/lib/client_failover.c -- correctly retries E_XCE_STANDBY up to max_retries=20 with zero backoff via XCE_FO_RETRY_NOW, and its final surfaced rc staying exactly -E_XCE_STANDBY on budget exhaustion is the DOCUMENTED behavior for a RETRY_NOW-classified cause, not a symptom of a broken retry loop). The MISSING INFO 'xcecli failover: attempt N' log lines (zero matches across the whole 40-round run) are explained by the fact that libxce's wait-primary REPL command (cmd_wait_primary, testsuite/test.c) does its OWN silent primary-discovery/redirect-follow loop (xcecli_ctrlstatus_primary) that never calls the shared xcecli_retry_next/INFO-logging path -- once wait-primary hands off a live, correctly-connected-to-primary ctx, subsequent ops normally succeed on attempt 0 with nothing to log; this is a red herring, not a clue to a client bug. The REAL mechanism is a genuine, unsynchronized DATA RACE in raft_state_t (the embedded Raft consensus struct, ha->raft): raft_on_vote_reply/raft_on_vote_request/raft_on_pre_vote_reply/raft_on_pre_vote_request/raft_begin_pre_vote/raft_start_election/raft_check_and_start_election/raft_on_election_timeout/raft_on_higher_term_observed all read+mutate raft_state_t's PLAIN (non-atomic) fields (term, role, votes_granted, replies_received, election_decided, vote_replies[], pre_vote_* tally) with ZERO locking -- the raft library (src/lib/raft/raft.c) is written assuming a single-threaded/serialized caller (the classic Raft single-event-loop model). But the raft-drive-async feature (peer_ctrl_dispatch_to_pool in ha.c, default ON via g_drive_async_peerctrl_dispatch_enabled=1) dispatches each peer-control message (including RequestVoteReply from each individual voter) as an independent VTASK_LIVENESS vtask onto the shared vtaskmgr pool; peer_ctrl_dispatch_to_pool's own per-endpoint serialization (bind_vtask) only orders messages arriving on the SAME endpoint -- it does NOT serialize messages from DIFFERENT peers' endpoints against each other. So two vote replies from two different voters (e.g. ctrl-2 grants, ctrl-3 grants or denies) for the SAME election CAN be processed concurrently on two different pool worker threads, both calling raft_on_vote_reply(&ha->raft, ...) on the shared struct with no lock. Traced exact race for the observed symptom: worker A processes voter1's grant, reaches quorum (votes_granted=2>=2), sets election_decided=1, fires on_become_leader -> raft_cb_become_leader -> ha->role=CTRL_PRIMARY (term=41, matching ctrl-1's own logs exactly). Worker B, running concurrently (no synchronization), processes voter2's reply and -- racing on the unprotected votes_granted/replies_received/election_decided reads -- can independently satisfy raft_on_vote_reply's Step 6 'all replied, no quorum' branch (replies_received==n_peers-1 && votes_granted<quorum, read before worker A's increment is visible to it) and fire on_become_follower -> raft_cb_become_follower -> ha->role=CTRL_STANDBY for the SAME term, an instant after promotion, with no further election and no fresh log line calling out a 'demotion' that anyone was specifically looking for. Every subsequent client GET request then correctly, faithfully hits ha_dispatch_gate's CTRL_STANDBY branch and is rejected with -XCE_ERR_STANDBY -- explaining why the failure PERSISTED across all retries/attempts across multiple seconds (nothing else ever corrects role back to PRIMARY once flipped -- no bug, no external trigger, it just stays CTRL_STANDBY). This also explains why the bug needed ~36 rounds to surface once: it requires two vote replies to genuinely overlap in processing time on two different pool workers, a narrow, load/scheduling-dependent timing window. Verified raft-drive-async is on by default (g_drive_async_peerctrl_dispatch_enabled=1) and confirmed via full call-graph trace that raft_cb_become_leader/raft_cb_become_follower (the synchronously-fired callbacks) never themselves call back into another raft_* entry point (no re-entrancy via the callbacks), and that no existing ha->lock-held critical section ever calls into a raft_* function (so lock-order is always raft_lock-then-ha->lock, never reversed -- no ABBA risk versus the two pre-existing lock-order bugs in this exact area, bug-652 and bug-1282). CONFIDENCE: HIGH on mechanism (every piece of evidence in the original investigation -- ctrl-1's own healthy term=41 promotion log, zero ASAN errors, commit_advanced continuing for seconds after, the missing xcecli-failover logs, every retry returning the SAME E_XCE_STANDBY class -- is fully and specifically explained by this race, with no residual unexplained facts), but NOT live-reproduced under a debugger/instrumented build in this session (the race is timing-rare, needed ~36 rounds to surface once in the original soak) -- this is a well-evidenced, fully-traced static diagnosis, not a confirmed-via-repro one.",
"fix": "Added a new dedicated ha_state_t field `raft_lock` (pthread_mutex_t, PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE -- src/controller/ha.h) serializing every mutating/reading entry point into raft_state_t on the election/vote path: raft_on_vote_reply (ha.c vote_reply_dispatch), raft_on_vote_request + raft_on_pre_vote_request (cluster.c, inbound vote RPCs), raft_on_pre_vote_reply + raft_begin_pre_vote (ha.c pre-vote dispatch), raft_start_election + raft_check_and_start_election x3 call sites (ha.c election-start paths, inline and vtask-dispatched), raft_on_election_timeout (ha.c delaymgr callback), and raft_on_higher_term_observed x2 (ha.c heartbeat-reply and WAL-NACK term-discovery paths). Initialized/destroyed in ha_init/ha_fini. Deliberately RECURSIVE (not a plain mutex): raft_on_pre_vote_reply's WON branch and raft_begin_pre_vote's single-node-win branch synchronously call ha_enter_real_election -> ha_start_election_async -> raft_start_election on the SAME thread within the same call chain (a legitimate same-thread nesting, not a race) -- a plain non-recursive mutex would self-deadlock on that path exactly like the precedent bug-652 (ha->lock self-deadlock from synchronous re-entry). Deliberately scoped to the ELECTION/VOTE path only, NOT the AE/commit-replication path (raft_log_append, raft_on_append_entries_request/reply, raft_advance_commit) -- ha_primary_log_append/raft_log_append is reachable from concurrent client-write vtasks with no visible lock either, which may be a SEPARATE, analogous concurrency gap, but touching the write/durability path carries much higher regression risk and wasn't the demonstrated mechanism for this specific symptom; flagging it as a follow-up investigation, not silently ignoring it. Verified no lock-order regression: no existing ha->lock-held critical section calls into any raft_* function (grepped and read all 9 ha->lock call sites), so raft_lock is always acquired before, never after, ha->lock -- consistent single order, no ABBA (cf. bug-1282, bug-652). Build: nix develop ./src -- bash src/tools/xce-build.sh controller -- clean compile, zero new warnings (3 pre-existing unrelated warnings in ha.c/cluster.c confirmed via git diff hunk-range check to be outside every edited region), controller_unit_test meson suite Ok:1 Fail:0 in 32.38s with no hang/timeout (a hang would have surfaced a recursive-mutex misuse or missed ha_init path, per the bug-1224/bug-1429 precedent of dispatch-related test hangs in this exact area -- none occurred). NOT live-reproduced/soak-validated in this session (explicitly deferred by the user to a separate follow-up 40-round /xce-test-ha run) -- this is a well-evidenced, carefully-scoped static fix for a data race, not a repro-confirmed one; flagged honestly as best-effort-but-high-confidence rather than 100%-certain.",

ROOT-CAUSED FOR REAL via live capture (tcpdump unavailable in sandbox -- no CAP_NET_RAW; used direct -vvv log correlation on a live reproduction instead) 2026-07-12 ~16:00-16:15Z. FIXED.",

"root_cause": "TWO ROOT CAUSES, both now addressed. (1) SUPERSEDED/PARTIAL (kept as a real but non-exclusive fix): the original pass diagnosed this as run-ha-soak.sh's unscoped `pkill -9 -x xce_controller` letting a second concurrent soak invocation silently SIGKILL the first run's live primary. That fix (node_pattern()/run_pattern() workdir-scoped pgrep/pkill) is a genuine improvement and stays in place, but a FRESH, FULLY ISOLATED 40-round soak re-run (deploy dir xce-test-ha-40-v2, confirmed via `ps aux` before/during/after that no second soak was ever running) STILL FAILED at round 36/40 with the byte-identical signature, and ctrl-2's own log proved it was never killed (constant PID, unbroken RAFT event stream, still serving OTHER clients seconds after the failure) -- so process collision was real but was NOT the (sole) mechanism behind every occurrence. (2) THE ACTUAL ROOT CAUSE (found via live reproduction, not archaeology): `xcecli_joblist`/`xcecli_reslist`/`xcecli_workerlist`/`xcecli_resval`/`xcecli_jobinfo` (src/lib/client.c) are all built on `xce_get_with_condition` (src/lib/xceapi.c), which returns a NON-NEGATIVE ROW COUNT on success (`rc = getreply.nrows`) -- NOT the uniform '0 = success, negative = XCE/errno-style status' convention every OTHER xcecli_* wrapper follows. All of them were routed through the generic `XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL` macro (client_internal.h), which unconditionally feeds the raw EXPR return value into `xce_failover_classify()` (client_failover.c) -- a function that recognizes retriable/terminal outcomes purely by MAGNITUDE (E_XCE_* codes >=10001, and POSIX errno values it deliberately accepts in EITHER sign via `fo_abs()`: ECONNRESET=104, ETIMEDOUT=110, ECONNREFUSED=111). A joblist reply whose row count happens to equal one of these magnitudes is silently misclassified as a transport failure on EVERY call with that exact count, even though the read fully succeeded -- forcing a spurious `xce_failover_rotate()` to the next configured master. Since get-class ops are primary-only, landing on a standby correctly (but pointlessly) fails with E_XCE_STANDBY and rotates again; the whole cycle repeats for every subsequent same-sized call in the same verify_no_loss batch, burning the finite `max_retries` budget (20, XCE_RETRY_DEFAULTS) on self-inflicted reconnect churn. run-ha-soak.sh's sequential mode submits NJOBS=3 per round, so the tracked job count follows the arithmetic progression 3+3*round -- of the three dangerous POSIX magnitudes (104, 110, 111), ONLY 111 is a multiple of 3, and it is hit for the FIRST time at EXACTLY round 36 (3+3*36=111=ECONNREFUSED) -- explaining both why this is genuinely rare (requires an exact numeric collision, not a generic race) and why it always surfaced at round 36 specifically for this test's job-count cadence. LIVE PROOF: a fresh, fully isolated 40-round soak (deploy dir xce-test-ha-40-bug1436-live) failed AGAIN at round 36/40 with 111 tracked jobs; the target primary's own -vvv log (ctrl-2, PID confirmed continuously alive via a parallel 1s-resolution forensic process/connection poller) showed a clear, damning pattern for the ENTIRE 'verify' client session: `cluster.c:786 server sock 4 accepted 10` (a BRAND NEW TCP connection) immediately before EVERY SINGLE `opcode get` request, followed by two `xce_reply` sends (the >100-row chunked-get path, xce_reply_get pktlimit=100) and then `cluster.c:64` (the TRACE line inside `handle_endpoint_error`, i.e. the connection being torn down) -- one full accept-serve-close cycle PER expect-job call, ~1799 accepts total on that one short-lived primary PID alone -- confirming the client was silently reconnecting on every single (mostly-successful) get call, exactly the reconnect storm this mechanism predicts, not a misreading of the log by a prior investigation pass. The run's own retry-storm messages ('verify_no_loss attempt 1/3: recheck failed... likely post-election client retry-storm race') were themselves an accurate but previously-misinterpreted symptom of this bug. Confirmed via codegraph_explore + direct reads of src/lib/client.c, src/lib/client_internal.h, src/lib/client_failover.c, src/lib/xceapi.c, src/lib/request.c (xce_reply_get chunking), src/controller/opget.c (do_reply_joblist/check_controller), src/lib/netio.c (endpoint_enq/handle_error/handle_output -- confirmed NOT independently implicated: zero `endpoint_update_epoll` WARN lines anywhere in the failing run's ctrl-2.log), and the existing `src/lib/testsuite/test_libxce_retry.c` StatusClassifier taxonomy tests (which confirm `xce_failover_classify` is INTENTIONALLY designed to accept genuine status codes in either sign -- the bug is that 5 call sites fed it a row count instead of a status code, not that the classifier itself is wrong). Two purpose-built synthetic repro harnesses (hammer2.sh: fixed 60-job list, ~5400+ calls with periodic real primary kills; hammer3.sh: fixed 495-job list, ~1500+ calls with periodic real primary kills) both ran clean with ZERO failures, because neither ever held the tracked job count at exactly 104/110/111 -- which in hindsight is the confirming, not disconfirming, result: the bug requires an EXACT count collision, not raw connection-churn volume, so a fixed-size synthetic repro that never lands on the magic number cannot hit it no matter how much volume it generates. That negative result is what motivated pivoting to the real /xce-test-ha harness (which naturally sweeps through every job count via its round-based growth) as the reproduction vehicle, per the live-capture mandate.",
"fix": "Added `XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL_COUNT(ac, EXPR)` to src/lib/client_internal.h -- a sibling of `XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL` for xce_get-family calls. It only enters the retry/classify loop when EXPR's raw result is NEGATIVE (`while ((_fc_rc < 0) && xcecli_retry_next(...))`); any non-negative result (0 or a genuine row count of ANY magnitude) is unconditionally treated as success and returned as-is, so it can never be misread as a retriable/terminal status code. A dead ctx (XCE_CTX_ERR) is still handled correctly: the per-op XCE_CTX_RUN guard in xceapi.c makes EXPR itself return a negative -EINVAL in that state, which enters the loop and is reclassified by xcecli_retry_decide's dead-connection branch exactly as before. Switched the 5 count-returning call sites in src/lib/client.c to the new macro: xcecli_reslist, xcecli_workerlist, xcecli_joblist (the confirmed live-reproduced offender), xcecli_resval (same xce_get_with_condition pattern, same latent risk), and xcecli_jobinfo (returns a fixed 1 on success -- lower risk since it never collides with a recognized magnitude and was previously misclassified as TERMINAL, which is harmless because TERMINAL does not rotate/rewrite rc, but fixed anyway for correctness/consistency rather than relying on that coincidence). Did NOT touch `xce_failover_classify` itself or any of the other 14 XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL call sites (hello, join, jobdispatch, jobsubmit, clusterconf, ctrlstatus, update_resvals, update_jusage, jobctrl, queuectrl, hostctrl, runtask, set_pend_reason, clear_reason) -- all of those genuinely follow the 0/status-code convention the classifier is designed for, confirmed via test_libxce_retry.c's existing StatusClassifier taxonomy tests, which still pass unmodified (xcelib_test: 293 Tests 0 Failures 0 Ignored). controller_unit_test: 926 PASS / 0 FAIL / 0 Ignored (direct-binary run, ANSI-stripped grep census, exit 0). Did NOT touch run-ha-soak.sh further (its bug-1436-prior-pass workdir-scoping fix stays, unrelated to this mechanism) and did NOT add a client-side retry-more band-aid -- the actual defect was a classification-layer bug misinterpreting legitimate success data as a transport error, not a genuinely unavoidable transient condition, so the correct fix is at the classification boundary, not the retry budget.",

"fix": "NOT FIXED IN THIS SESSION -- user explicitly instructed build+run+report only, no code changes.

Confirmed this is the SAME pre-existing vendored-rtti-library characteristic already diagnosed in this entry's root_cause (1), not a new leak and not introduced by this feature's production code -- the feature's own new test is simply the first test in the suite to deliberately drive job_init() to fail after makeInstance() has already allocated, so it is the first to trip the latent characteristic. Still NOT FIXED (out of scope for a validation-only pass); flagging that under meson's full-suite invocation (abort_on_error=1) this leak turns into a SIGABRT / non-zero exit code for the lib test binary, so a naive exit-code-only CI gate would read this as a lib-suite failure even though zero Unity assertions fail and zero new markers/regressions exist in feature code.",

Next step if it recurs: check meson.build custom_target() for lib/controller.capnp.[ch] has correct output declarations / add explicit depends on all consumers, or file upstream against capnpc-c invocation for atomic output. RECURRENCE 2026-07-16 (2nd occurrence, CONFIRMS the race, different symptom): clean build (rm -rf xce.build) of `nix develop ./src --command bash src/tools/xce-build.sh controller asan` at HEAD 2a76940. This time gcc failed with `fatal error: controller.capnp.h: No such file or directory` (not corrupted content) for hook.c.o, threshold.c.o, xlist.c.o, utils.c.o, window.c.o, xceapi.c.o, wrap.c.o \u2014 all 7 consumers of utils.h#include controller.capnp.h. Critically, ninja's own completion log shows `[12/191] Generating lib/controllercapnp.[ch]` printed AFTER jobs [5..11] (the 7 failed compiles) had already completed/failed. This proves the custom_target that generates lib/controller.capnp.h has no dependency edge forcing it to run before these 7 specific compile units \u2014 confirms the suspected root cause in the original entry (missing depends()/output declaration in meson.build), not just a non-atomic-write timing fluke. Still NOT fixed (build+report only task, no source edits authorized). controller_unit_test and xce_test were never produced this run (clean build wiped the prior binaries and the new build failed before relinking). RECURRENCE 2026-07-17 (3rd occurrence, kiro-validate-impl smoke-boot build for job-array-single-wal-record): fresh (non-clean) build of `nix develop ./src --command bash src/tools/xce-build.sh controller` at HEAD ea8d9d3 failed on the FIRST invocation with yet another symptom of the same race: `fatal error: opening dependency file controller/controller_unit_test.p/ha.c.o.d: No such file or directory` AND simultaneously `fatal error: opening dependency file lib/libxce.a.p/meson-generated_.._controller.capnp.c.o.d: No such file or directory` for two unrelated targets at once ([187/192] and [188/192]) -- gcc could not open its OWN .o.d dependency-file output path, not an input header this time, reinforcing this is a general ninja/meson parallel-build filesystem race in this sandbox, not specific to controller.capnp.h generation. WORKAROUND CONFIRMED AGAIN: simply re-running the identical build command with no source changes succeeded cleanly (85/85 targets, controller_unit_test 3/3 OK), producing fresh xce_controller/xce_test binaries. Do-not-repeat: if xce-build.sh fails with any \"fatal error: opening dependency file ... .o.d: No such file or directory\" or \"controller.capnp.h: No such file or directory\", just retry the same command once before treating it as a real build break -- do not start debugging source code.

WORKAROUND CONFIRMED AGAIN (4th time): identical retry with zero source changes succeeded cleanly, 353/353 ninja targets, all 9 meson test suites OK (0 Fail), test_cluster (part of libxce test suite) and scheduler tests all passed. Still unfixed at the meson.build dependency-edge level -- do-not-repeat guidance holds: always retry once before treating this as a real regression. RECURRENCE 2026-07-26 (5th occurrence, build+report task validating bug-1474 repl.c fix via `nix develop ./src --command bash src/tools/xce-build.sh all asan`, HEAD c0b0c7d): TWO consecutive races in the same session, different symptoms each time. 1st invocation (clean build): classic capnp.h race -- hook.c.o etc. failed 'controller.capnp.h: No such file or directory' with the generator's status line ([6/361] Generating lib/controllercapnp.[ch]) printed AFTER the failed compiles -- identical to prior occurrences. 2nd invocation (retry, clean build): build progressed all the way to [361/361] (last job, frontend/apiserver's go_build) which FAILED with `/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lxce: No such file or directory`; lib/libxce.a was confirmed absent from src/xce.build/lib/ immediately after the failure, and no 'Linking static target lib/libxce.a' line ever appeared in the ninja log for that invocation. NEW symptom variant: this is the first occurrence of the race hitting a Go custom_target (apiserver's CGO link against libxce.a) rather than a C compile/link step -- apiserver's CGO_LDFLAGS references @BUILD_ROOT@/lib/libxce.a only via an env-var string, which is suspected to carry no explicit ninja dependency edge on the lib archive target, letting the go_build job be eligible to run before the archive step completes. 3rd invocation (retry, clean build) succeeded cleanly: 361/361 ninja targets, meson test Ok:9 Fail:0, scheduler manual test 15/15 pass, frontend Go tests (apiserver + xcecli) all ok, xceadmin pytest 166 passed, producing fresh xce_controller/xce_test (confirmed containing the bug-1474 'reusing guard-holding slot' WARN string) and a fresh xceadmin/.venv/bin/xceadmin. WORKAROUND CONFIRMED AGAIN (do not debug source on first or second failure): simply retry the identical xce-build.sh command with no changes; this session needed up to 2 retries (3 total invocations) before a clean pass, still well within the established do-not-repeat guidance. Do-not-repeat addendum: the race is not limited to C compile/link edges -- it can also strand a Go custom_target waiting on a C static archive (apiserver <- lib/libxce.a) referenced only via env-var string interpolation, not a declared meson `depends:`/`link_with:` edge. Still unfixed at the meson.build dependency-edge level.",

Because wire_dispatch_test.go and clib.go/convert.go/peers_test.go/handler_test.go/convert_test.go/heartbeat_test.go (the last four carry no build tag, so they build under BOTH cgo and !cgo) all live in the same package, the ENTIRE apiserver/backend package fails as `[setup failed]` under `make test-backend` (CGO_ENABLED=1) -- this also silently prevented the pre-existing cgo-buildable tests (handler_test.go, convert_test.go, peers_test.go, heartbeat_test.go) from running, even though none of them regressed on their own. The `!cgo`-tagged files (integration_test.go, control_host_test.go, stub_funcs_test.go) are unaffected since they're excluded from the CGO_ENABLED=1 file set entirely; `make test` (CGO_ENABLED=0) passed clean (apiserver/backend ok, 1.510s) confirming no regression on the non-cgo path.",

A 16-byte double-free immediately after go_push_handler returns is consistent with that no-op assumption being wrong for the Data_data_jobArray-derived dataset table specifically (i.e. free_Dataset() actually does free ds->rows or ds itself for this table, and wire_dispatch_support.go's explicit cleanup then frees the same memory again).

So `ds` becomes a dangling pointer the instant go_push_handler returns -- the earlier NOT-ROOT-CAUSED hypothesis was correct in spirit but had the wrong culprit function (free_Dataset_ptr, not free_Dataset). wireDispatchDeliver() (wire_dispatch_support.go) had two bugs: (1) read ds.rows AFTER calling go_push_handler = use-after-free, (2) separately called C.free(ds) again = double-free on the same 16-byte region ASan caught. Fix: capture `rows := ds.rows` BEFORE calling go_push_handler (line 175), use that captured value afterward instead of re-reading ds.rows, and removed the redundant C.free(unsafe.Pointer(ds)) call entirely since go_push_handler's internal free_Request already frees it.

"error_message": "OPEN, NOT A CRASH -- discovered as a design-time/test-proven gap, not a runtime failure report. restore_job_array()'s final bulk-insert pass into c->jobmgr can itself fail partway through (e.g. realloc() exhaustion growing c->jobmgr's backing table). Because the underlying xkvmgr_type store has no key_del, an already-inserted prefix [0, k) cannot be rolled back and is left permanently, genuinely visible in c->jobmgr -- individually addressable (status/cancel/completion all work via direct jobid lookup) -- while the function honestly returns a negative errno (never silently claims success). Critically, that prefix is never included in out_new_jobs, so HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_NEW never fires for it, not on this attempt or on any later successful retry of the same LSN (the per-index idempotent-skip logic on retry treats the already-inserted prefix as 'already exists', excluding it from the retry's own out_new_jobs too). Practical consequence: these array elements exist and are queryable forever, but never reach the scheduler's or API-server's push and so are never actually scheduled to run -- a silent, permanent no-op job, not merely a bookkeeping gap. requirements-coverage validation (kiro-validate-impl, 2026-07-16) confirmed this is a literal violation of Requirement 2.3 ('a standby shall never observe a single array WAL record in a partially-applied form') and Requirement 9.4 ('shall not construct a partial/divergent set of elements'), and its shadow extends to 9.5 (self-heal, since the orphaned prefix never gets a fresh chance to hook-fire even once the retry succeeds) and 9.6 (the capstone fault-injection test deliberately targets the fully-atomic construction-phase seam instead of this bulk-insert seam, precisely because asserting 'zero partial elements' against this seam would be dishonest).",

Discovered and documented during task 3.1's original implementation review (job-array-single-wal-record spec), re-confirmed live-testable via test_rja_bulk_insert_failure_reports_error_not_false_success (test_job_array_apply.c), and re-surfaced by name during the spec's final /kiro-validate-impl requirements-coverage pass.",

Discovered and fixed a genuine, previously-unknown off-by-one in the existing, unmodified xzarray_ensure_items(): its strict less-than sufficiency check (mincap < caps) means reserving exactly array_size and then performing array_size real stores still triggers one more growth cycle on the LAST store; reserving array_size + 1 is the exact minimal correct compensation, independently re-derived and confirmed with concrete arithmetic by adversarial review. For the now-much-narrower residual case (kvtab_add()'s own small per-entry hash-chain-node allocation, or a content-based -EEXIST collision -- both non-N-scaling, honestly still theoretically possible and documented as such, NOT claimed to be eliminated): restore_job_array() now populates out_new_jobs with whatever prefix was genuinely inserted before a mid-pass failure, and apply_committed_entry()'s WAL_JOB_ARRAY_SUBMIT case fires HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_NEW for that non-empty partial prefix even when the overall return is negative, while still propagating the negative rc so the LSN correctly halts and the Live Apply Resource Fence still engages for the remaining un-constructed indices -- a genuinely-inserted element is never left un-pushed/un-scheduled again. Verified: retry-double-notify risk traced and confirmed absent (pre-existing per-index idempotent-skip logic excludes already-inserted indices from any subsequent attempt's out_new_jobs); apply_wal_entry()'s dead-code standby path confirmed genuinely untouched; full controller/lib/scheduler test suites clean, zero regressions in any other consumer of the shared kvmgr.c/zarray.c code.

So expected_new_job_count silently undercounts by N for every array record replayed during boot -- while persist_verify_apply_correctness() (persist.c ~3982-3988) measures actual_new_jobs via a REAL jobmgr entry-count delta (count_jobmgr_entries before/after), which correctly reflects the N elements.

Practical severity: in any cluster where a job array has EVER been submitted, every ordinary node restart (routine maintenance, crash-restart, rolling upgrade) permanently non-promotable-fences that node; over enough restarts across a 3-node cluster this can leave ZERO nodes eligible for promotion -- a serious HA-availability regression, not a cosmetic log line.

"file": "src/lib/netio.c (handle_ssl_handshake / io_handler / io_worker -- crash site, shared iomgr epoll dispatch); src/controller/ha.c (ha_connect_prep_peer/ha_connect_finish_peer/reconnect_lane_fn, raft-drive-async Task 2.1/2.2 reconnect-offload -- suspected trigger); src/controller/cluster.c (handle_connection / endpoint_accept -- inbound accept path, alternate suspect)",
"root_cause": "CONFIRMED (deterministic regression test + live soak, not speculative). The earlier 'unsynchronized concurrent SSL_do_handshake from two io_worker threads' hypothesis is WRONG and is retracted: iomgr_start() creates exactly ONE io_worker thread per iomgr_t (src/lib/netio.c:iomgr_start), and a single controller process has exactly one such iomgr/thread for all peer connections -- there is no second io_worker thread to race against.\n\nREAL mechanism: io_worker's epoll dispatch loop processes every ready fd from ONE epoll_wait() batch in a plain for-loop calling io_handler() per event (src/lib/netio.c, old io_worker ~line 612-640). A handler for an EARLIER event in that SAME batch can free a DIFFERENT endpoint that also has a ready event LATER in the SAME batch. In production this is exactly src/controller/ha.c:8257-8331 on_standby_connected(), the handshake-complete callback for a freshly-reconnected outbound standby channel (raft-drive-async Task 2.1/2.2's reconnect-offload path): when it detects a stale duplicate outbound channel to the same peer (ha.c:8286-8303, 'Different ep, same peer -> stale duplicate to evict'), it calls iomgr_unmonitor() (ha.c:8320-8321) then endpoint_unref() (ha.c:8327) on the STALE endpoint. iomgr_unmonitor()'s epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL) only stops a FUTURE epoll_wait() from returning events for that fd -- it does NOT invalidate an event for that SAME stale endpoint that is already sitting in the CURRENT batch's stack-local events[] array (very plausible during a reconnect burst, where several peer connections' fds become ready close together right after a new primary election). endpoint_unref() reaching refcnt 0 immediately SSL_free()s ep->ssl and free()s the endpoint_t. The loop's next iteration then calls io_handler() for that now-freed endpoint -- a heap-use-after-free that reads freed memory as 'ep', and (if it still looks like a plausible pointer chain) hands a freed/reused ep->ssl to SSL_do_handshake(), producing exactly the observed ASAN DEADLYSIGNAL SEGV deep inside OpenSSL's ssl3_read_bytes rather than an immediate top-of-function null-ssl crash.\n\nThis is a genuine gap in the bug-1282/1286/1298 hardening family: INVOKE_MSG_HANDLER (netio.h) already refs/unrefs an endpoint around its OWN msg_handler call (bug-1298 note in that macro's comment) so a handler cannot free the SAME ep it is currently dispatched on -- but that bracket never covered a DIFFERENT, already-batched endpoint torn down as a side effect (on_standby_connected's cross-endpoint eviction). io_worker's own epoll dispatch loop held no reference of any kind on the endpoints in its batch. Reproduced deterministically (no live soak needed to hit it) via a new unit test that drives io_worker's real batch-dispatch loop with a synthetic 2-event epoll batch where event 0's handler endpoint_unref()s event 1's endpoint -- confirmed RED pre-fix: ASAN heap-use-after-free at src/lib/netio.c:587 (io_handler reading ep->ssl_handshake_done), freed by src/lib/netio.c:843 (endpoint_unref) called from the injected handler, exactly mirroring the production on_standby_connected -> stale endpoint eviction -> later-batched io_handler() read chain.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-07-18). src/lib/netio.c: extracted io_worker's per-batch dispatch into a new static io_worker_dispatch_batch(struct epoll_event*, int) (~line 639-654), called from io_worker's while(1) loop in place of the old inline for-loop. It now takes an endpoint_ref() on every endpoint in the batch BEFORE dispatching any of them, dispatches all events via io_handler() as before, then endpoint_unref()s every endpoint only AFTER the whole batch has been processed -- mirroring the SAME endpoint_ref/endpoint_unref bracket idiom this codebase already uses for the vtask dispatch path (bug-1298) and INVOKE_MSG_HANDLER (netio.h), applied here to io_worker's own epoll dispatch loop, the one dispatcher that didn't yet have it. With this bracket, on_standby_connected's endpoint_unref() on a stale duplicate can only drop that endpoint's refcount from 2 (owner + io_worker's batch ref) to 1 during the batch -- never to 0 -- so the free is deferred until io_worker's own trailing unref runs after the ENTIRE batch (including that endpoint's own later event) has been safely dispatched. ref/unref are the existing lock-free _Atomic-int operations (netio.c endpoint_ref/endpoint_unref) with no I/O and no lock acquisition, so this adds zero blocking risk to the io_worker hot path (satisfies the async-io steering rule against blocking in vtask/event-loop handlers). Also added a small always-compiled test seam, io_worker_dispatch_batch_for_test() (netio.c + netio.h) -- not XCE_TESTING-gated because netio.c compiles once into libxce.a with no per-target defines (unlike controller/ha.c, which the controller test binary compiles directly with -DXCE_TESTING), so it follows this file's existing convention of unconditionally exporting its internals (endpoint_ref, endpoint_unref, endpoint_mark_tearing_down, etc. are all plain public functions already).\n\nRegression test: src/lib/testsuite/test_netio_batch_dispatch_uaf.c (test_batch_dispatch_survives_cross_endpoint_eviction), registered in src/lib/meson.build and src/lib/testsuite/test.c. Drives io_worker_dispatch_batch_for_test() with a synthetic 2-event batch: event 0 -> an endpoint whose conn_handler calls endpoint_unref() on event 1's endpoint (simulating on_standby_connected's stale-duplicate eviction); event 1 -> an endpoint with refcnt==1 (its only ref is the one event 0's handler drops) whose conn_handler just records that it ran. TDD verified: RED confirmed pre-fix (ASAN heap-use-after-free at netio.c:587 in io_handler, object freed at netio.c:843 endpoint_unref from the injected handler -- captured verbatim before the fix was restored); GREEN confirmed post-fix (both handlers run safely, exit 0, re-confirmed again standalone after both live soaks completed). Full regression: libxce lib suite 294/0/0 (xcelib_test, ASAN, ~/xce.build), controller_unit_test 972/0/0 with zero AddressSanitizer/heap-use-after-free/heap-buffer-overflow/double-free/SEGV hits in the full test log. Live verification beyond the unit test: two independent fresh sequential 10-round /xce-test-ha HA soaks on real ext4 (/home/claude/tmp/xce-bug1447-verify-1: 10/10 rounds, 33 jobs, zero job loss, all 3 nodes led; /home/claude/tmp/xce-bug1447-verify-2: 10/10 rounds, 36 jobs, zero job loss, all 3 nodes led including a forced-election leadership-coverage check on ctrl-3) -- both fully clean, zero crashes, and an explicit grep of every node's logs in both runs for the bug-1447 signature (AddressSanitizer/DEADLYSIGNAL/SEGV/ssl3_read_bytes/handle_ssl_handshake) found zero matches.",

Root-caused from the controller logs (not assumed): cold-start election was unusually slow this run -- ctrl-1 only reached CTRL_PRIMARY (term=2) ~10.1s after process start (raft_cb_become_leader). Immediately on becoming primary it began its config-push handshake to both standbys (on_standby_connected: 'outbound standby connection to peer[N] established, ctrlhello sent', same ~10.1s timestamp). The driver's round-1 kill fired only ~1.7s later (its budget is 'submit 3 jobs + verify + walcompare' after primary is detected, no floor on how fast that completes) -- before either standby had received and applied the pushed config. Both standbys were still at config tag=0 when ctrl-1 died, so ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup correctly refused to start PreVote/RDHUP re-election per ha-config-bootstrap's own Req 2.8 guard ('no local config (tag=0, n_peers=3) -- voter only, not starting PreVote/RDHUP re-election; awaiting configured primary'), leaving the cluster with no primary and no candidate. This is the guard working exactly as designed against an unconfigured standby self-electing -- the actual gap is that run-ha-soak.sh's sequential mode has no wait for initial 3-of-3 config convergence before round 1's first kill (unlike its wait for FULL reconvergence between later rounds).

Added functions node_config_tag() / cluster_config_converged() / wait_for_initial_config_convergence() right after wait_for_full_convergence (~line 556). Call site inserted right after the chaotic-mode branch's closing `fi` and before the 'Steps 7-10 looped' round loop (~line 1897), so it applies only to the sequential/default path (chaotic mode intentionally tolerates this race by design -- 'no new primary' is a COUNTED outcome there, never a hard fail, so it was correctly left untouched).

Cross-checked the actual cold-start timing from controller logs across all 3 runs to size the margin: election (raft_cb_become_leader -> CTRL_PRIMARY) took 10.3-11.7s after process start each run, and the config-push (handle_repl_config_push on both standbys) landed only 40-46ms after election every time -- i.e. the actual condition resolves in well under 100ms, while the new gate's minimum dwell is ~4s (2 ticks x 2s) and its ceiling is ~90s, giving roughly 2 orders of magnitude of margin over the observed timing, not just enough for these 3 runs' luck.",

The flags only perturbed thread-scheduling timing enough to make a PRE-EXISTING, always-latent test-teardown race fire more reliably; they do not participate in the crash's causal chain at all. Actual root cause: in src/controller/testsuite/test_persist_truncate.c, the three continuation-related tests (test_truncate_above_resolves_pending_continuations_as_failed, test_truncate_noop_does_not_resolve_pending_continuations, test_truncate_concurrent_burst_resolves_above_cutoff_exactly_once) called `commit_engine_fini(&ce)` BEFORE `teardown_persist(p)` (which calls `persist_stop(p)`) -- the exact opposite of the contract documented in commit_engine_fini's own comment (commit.c:464-468: 'Callers are expected to have stopped the flusher (persist_stop) first'). Because persist_stop had not yet run, the fsync_worker background thread was still alive and could be mid-flight invoking the durable-advance callback (fsync_worker, persist.c:398-399, calls p->on_durable_advance(p->durable_cb_ctx) with NO lock held) concurrently with commit_engine_fini destroying ce->lock/ce->cond and, as its final step, setting ce->p = NULL. This produces a genuine TOCTOU data race with no synchronization between the two threads: commit_on_durable_advance's own guard (`if (ce == NULL || ce->p == NULL) return;`) can read ce->p as still non-NULL (racing ahead of or concurrent with commit_engine_fini's teardown), pass the guard, and then commit_advance_locked's SEPARATE, later re-read of ce->p (commit.c:208, `atomic_load(&ce->p->committed_lsn)`) observes the NOW-NULLED value written by the concurrently-running commit_engine_fini on the main thread -- producing a NULL-pointer dereference at exactly offset 0x38 (offsetof(persist_t, committed_lsn)), matching the crash address bit-for-bit. persist_set_durable_cb's unhook (called from commit_engine_fini) is 'defensive and cheap' per its own comment but is NOT sufficient on its own without persist_stop's pthread_join guaranteeing the flusher thread cannot be in-flight at all -- confirmed by the fact that persist_set_durable_cb existed and ran in this path the whole time and the crash still occurred.",
"fix": "FIXED 2026-07-19 (commit pending): added an explicit `persist_stop(p);` call immediately before `commit_engine_fini(&ce);` in all three affected test functions in test_persist_truncate.c (previously commit_engine_fini ran first, then teardown_persist -> persist_stop ran second -- backwards from the documented contract). persist_stop joins the fsync_worker thread, so by the time commit_engine_fini tears down ce->lock/ce->cond/ce->p, no thread can be mid-callback referencing them. teardown_persist's own internal persist_stop(p) call becomes a safe idempotent no-op on the second invocation (fsync_thread_running is already 0 and wal_fd is already -1, so both of its internal branches skip). No production code changed -- this was purely a test-fixture ordering bug, not a bug in commit.c/persist.c itself. Verified: full ASAN controller_unit_test suite (976 tests) run 6 times total (1 via meson + 5 standalone direct binary runs per project convention of not trusting meson's aggregate alone) -- 976 Tests 0 Failures 0 Ignored on every run, zero ASAN reports (SEGV/UAF/etc.), all 8 test_persist_truncate.c tests PASS every run. NOTE for a future session: the identical commit_engine_fini-before-persist_stop ordering also exists in test_demotion_convergence.c (line 233 commit_engine_fini(&g_dc.commit) before line 235 persist_stop(&g_dc.persist), against a real persist_start'd fixture) -- same latent race, not yet observed to crash there (likely a narrower window against a static/global fixture rather than a per-test stack fixture), out of scope for this fix but worth a follow-up sweep of all commit_engine_fini call sites.",

Not caused by, or a regression from, clusterconfig-schema-split's changes \u2014 task 2.1's port-resolution rewrite (commit 1229f9a) incidentally fixed this as a side effect, since its hardcoded-default fallback no longer depends on cluster_config being loaded.",

Since committed_config_tag is permanently floored at 0 for the rest of the term (nothing advances it except a live admin xceadmin config push via config_commit_change -> push_config_to_standbys, config_repl.c:1524/1556-1558, which never happens in a normal deploy-ha.sh-deployed cluster), standby_tag(0) < committed_tag(0) is false forever -> HA_REPL_PUSH_CONFIG never fires for that standby. Meanwhile WAL/job replication is unaffected since it correctly tracks committed_lsn (a genuinely-advancing value, set from real job commits), not the broken config_tag floor -- exactly matching the observed symptom (jobs replicate, config does not).\n\nReproduced live: /tmp/xce-ha-deploy, peers ctrl-1=9901/ctrl-2=9902/ctrl-3=9903 (src/build.dbg/controller/xce_controller). ctrl-1 promoted primary at term=2 via PreVote failover (ha_compute_safe_committed_lsn logged safe_committed_lsn=0 safe_config_tag=0 'from 2 granted voters'). ctrl-2 (already-connected vote ep[0]) received handle_repl_config_push 45ms after promotion (one-shot path). ctrl-3 connected 3s later as 'late-joiner standby peer[2]' (ha.c on_standby_connected), got WAL-caught-up correctly (ha_process_standby_state: standby[2] converged: config_tag=0 applied_lsn=1 committed_tag=0 committed_lsn=1) but NEVER received a config push -- ctrl-1's full log has zero further push_config/repl_config lines after promotion, and ctrl-3's log stays stuck at 'CTRL_STANDBY -- waiting for primary to connect and push config'. ctrl-3/conf/ is empty on disk (no cluster.bin.*, no current pointer) while ctrl-1/ctrl-2 both have cluster.bin.860cfd4f59ef + current.",
"fix": "FIXED 2026-07-23. Implemented candidate direction (a): added ha_promotion_config_tag_floor(safe_tag, self_tag) (ha.h/ha.c, declared beside ha_promotion_truncate_floor) returning safe_tag > self_tag ? safe_tag : self_tag -- mirrors bug-1060's WAL-truncation clamp pattern but for config_tag instead of LSN. raft_cb_become_leader (ha.c ~1279) now clamps committed_config_tag to this floor instead of the raw majority-safe tag, so a newly-elected primary's own actively-loaded config tag is never dropped back to a stale majority-of-zero baseline. RED test added: test_promotion_config_tag_never_drops_below_own_loaded_config (testsuite/test_ha_election.c), covers the exact bug-1462 repro (safe_tag=0, self_tag=0x860cfd4f59ef9381 -> floor=self_tag), the equal case, safe_tag-above-self_tag case, and fresh-boot (0,0)->0.

"file": "src/controller/testsuite/test_config_repl.c",
"root_cause": "Two related findings from wiring apply_committed_entry's new WAL_CONFIG_MARKER case (persist.c, config-upgrade-snapshot task 5), which for the first time makes applying a config marker synchronously trigger a real checkpoint: (1) persist_apply_pump_kick's dispatch is a CAS race between the calling thread (inside commit_submit's synchronous commit_resolve_pending) and persist_start's independent fsync_worker thread (via commit_on_durable_advance) -- when the fsync thread wins, commit_submit's WAIT mode returns having waited only for COMMIT, not for the marker's now-real APPLY+CHECKPOINT side effect on that other thread, so a fixture's own subsequent persist_checkpoint()/LSN bookkeeping can race the still-in-flight background checkpoint. This race was always latent (applying a marker used to be a no-op) but was invisible until task 5 gave it a real, observable side effect. (2) DEEPER pre-existing architectural finding: persist_write_checkpoint_marker (called by any checkpoint, periodic or marker-triggered) appends its local-only, never-replicated WAL_CHECKPOINT entry by incrementing persist_t's current_lsn directly, WITHOUT going through ha_primary_log_append/raft_log_append -- this violates ha_primary_log_append's own documented co-tracking invariant 'p->current_lsn == s->log_len + 1 always holds' (ha.c:4057). Consequence: config_append_marker's returned lsn (sourced from raft's own s->log_len, which under-counts once a checkpoint has interleaved) becomes unreliable as an exact physical-position identifier for any marker appended after an earlier marker's checkpoint has run -- exactly the scenario Requirement 4.4 (overlapping markers) requires. Verified this does NOT corrupt on-disk data or commit/durability correctness: commit_advance_locked's majority_candidate_locked (commit.c) is driven entirely by persist_t's own durable_lsn/current_lsn, never by raft's s->log_len (that library value is documented as advisory-only for commit-ceiling purposes, ha-term-safety commit-ceiling-optA). The bug is confined to callers trusting the RETURNED lsn from config_append_marker/ha_primary_log_append for precise identity/ordering once a checkpoint has occurred earlier in the WAL. This is pre-existing (the periodic WAL-threshold checkpoint trigger has always had the same bypass) but was never observable before because periodic checkpoints require >=100 WAL records to fire, essentially never happening between two closely-spaced marker appends in a unit test; task 5's marker-triggered checkpoint fires on EVERY marker commit, making it the common case. SEVERITY CORRECTION (2026-07-24, kiro-review of task 5): the original \"advisory-only... does NOT affect correctness\" framing UNDERSTATES real risk. ha->raft.log_len (the same value as s->log_len) is a direct input to Raft RequestVote freshness comparisons (ha.c:258-261, my_last_log_index; ha.c:401-406, my_last_log_term via persist_entry_term(c, log_len)) -- NOT debug/advisory-only. ha_primary_log_append itself documents (ha.c:4054-4060) that its own LSN-assignment correctness RELIES on p->current_lsn == s->log_len + 1 holding; once a checkpoint marker breaks that invariant, the next primary append receives a library-assigned index that may no longer match its true physical WAL position, so persist_entry_term() lookups keyed by that index can resolve to the wrong WAL entry. Confirmed via kiro-review independent trace, not yet reproduced as a live failure. Pre-existing (not introduced by task 5 -- the periodic WAL-threshold checkpoint trigger already had this bypass; task 5 only made the interleaving common instead of rare). Still correctly out of config-upgrade-snapshot task 5's boundary to fix -- flagging with corrected severity for whoever next owns ha-term-safety/raft-log-replication so it is not deprioritized based on the original advisory-only framing.",
"fix": "(1) Added t42_wait_applied() (mirrors test_apply_pump.c's tap_wait_applied) and called it from t43_commit_marker and directly in test_committed_marker_survives_checkpoint_trim, polling persist_last_applied_lsn() before any LSN-sensitive step following a marker commit, closing the fsync-thread race. (2) Changed t43_append_marker_uncommitted to return the TRUE physical lsn read directly from persist_t (c->persist.current_lsn - 1) instead of trusting config_append_marker's returned (raft-library-derived, now-unreliable) lsn -- matching how production code that needs precise positioning (persist.c's apply seam, which receives lsn from the WAL entry's own on-disk header) already effectively does it. Did NOT attempt to fix the deeper co-tracking invariant gap in ha.c/raft.c (out of config-upgrade-snapshot task 5's scope -- would require raft-log-replication/ha-term-safety spec owners to add a log_len resync after any local-only checkpoint-marker append on a raft leader); flagged as a follow-up finding in the task 5 status report instead.",

"file": "src/controller/config_repl.c do_upgrade_config_with_bytes (~1611-1770)",
"root_cause": "Byte-level diff of the two checkpoint files (both LSN 11) shows the string 'soakupgrade' (the deliberately-added 5th queue's name, part of task 8.6's upgrade-target config) appears ONCE in ctrl-1's file (inside the embedded raw active-config-bytes blob, persist.c's read_active_config_bytes -- always a fresh disk re-read) but TWICE in ctrl-2/ctrl-3's files -- the second occurrence, present only on ctrl-2/ctrl-3, sits in a queue-ENTITY list section (immediately followed by the next queue's name 'lost_and_found', a runtime enumeration, not raw config text). So ctrl-1's checkpoint correctly embeds the NEW config bytes but its runtime QUEUE-ENTITY table still reflects the OLD (pre-upgrade) queue set. Traced to the code: do_upgrade_config_with_bytes (the handler that runs on whichever node ORIGINATES/commits the upgrade -- ctrl-1 was primary in term 2 when this upgrade was submitted, confirmed via its own log line 'do_upgrade_config_with_bytes: Config upgraded to tag=... (acked=2 standbys)') saves the new bytes to disk (conf_save_config) and bumps c->myconf->config_generation, but NEVER calls config_activate_committed()/load_primary_config() to actually re-parse the new bytes INTO c->myconf -- so the very struct the checkpoint writer presumably walks to emit the queue-entity list keeps the OLD parsed queue set. apply_committed_entry's WAL_CONFIG_MARKER case (persist.c) only calls persist_checkpoint_marker_triggered() then upgrade_materialization_verify() (ha.c) -- and upgrade_materialization_verify does NOT reload/activate config either, it only (a) checks whether some PRIOR checkpoint already referenced this marker (cfgref_present/tag/sha, circularly self-referential to the checkpoint it is meant to gate) and (b) hash-verifies the LIVE ON-DISK bytes -- neither check touches c->myconf's in-memory queue table, so the Activation Fence reports 'VERIFIED' (confirmed in ctrl-1's log, 'upgrade materialization VERIFIED... materialization complete') even though c->myconf itself was never refreshed. config_activate_committed (which DOES call load_primary_config, the only place that actually re-parses queues into c->myconf) is invoked only from handle_repl_config_push (a STANDBY receiving an out-of-band config-push) and from a member's own boot/recovery path -- confirmed empirically: ctrl-1's log shows ZERO config_activate_committed calls in its original (primary, term-2) process instance, but TWO calls in its restarted instance (12:59:16 and 12:59:39, after persist_recover reported APPLY_CLEAN at last_applied_lsn=11, i.e. loading the already-frozen stale checkpoint rather than replaying). Consequence: the node that ORIGINATES a config upgrade never refreshes its own in-memory queue table as part of that commit -- its checkpoint stays consistent with the OLD queue set until some LATER, independent event (restart+recovery, or an incoming config-push) happens to call config_activate_committed. Task 8.6's scenario kills the originating primary shortly after it commits (chaotic multi-kill interleaved with the upgrade, by design), so that self-correction never gets a chance to run, and no FURTHER WAL activity occurred to trigger a follow-up checkpoint that could have picked up a later-corrected queue table -- the divergent checkpoint file is permanently frozen.",
"fix": "PARTIALLY FIXED, then RE-INVESTIGATED (2026-07-25) -- correcting this entry's own earlier premature 'FIXED' claim. Two real findings:\n\n(1) GENUINE FIX, LANDED: apply_committed_entry's WAL_CONFIG_MARKER case (persist.c) was calling config_activate_committed(c) AFTER persist_checkpoint_marker_triggered() (the checkpoint write), not before -- meaning even when activation ran, it ran too late to affect the checkpoint it was meant to fix. Reordered to run BEFORE the checkpoint call (still guarded on c->myconf != NULL, still positioned before upgrade_materialization_verify per task 6.2's own sequencing need). Verified: full controller_unit_test suite 1025/1025 PASS, 0 failures, no crash (including the previously-SEGV-prone test_marker_apply_via_live_pump_checkpoints_at_marker_own_lsn and the bug-1469 regression test_wal_config_marker_apply_activates_originating_member_config).\n\n(2) DEEPER GAP FOUND, NOT FIXED -- genuinely out of task 8.6's scope: re-running the live --config-upgrade soak AFTER the reordering fix landed produced the IDENTICAL divergence signature (same ~52-byte checkpoint delta, same duplicated-vs-single 'soakupgrade' queue name pattern) on a DIFFERENT node this time (still one node showing stale queue state). Root-caused via direct code trace: config_activate_committed() -> load_primary_config() only re-parses bytes into myconf->cluster_config (config_repl.c:614-714) -- it NEVER touches c->qmgr, the RUNTIME queue table collect_queue_frames() (persist.c:1895, the checkpoint's queue-entity-list writer) actually walks. The ONLY code that populates c->qmgr from cluster_config->queues[] is build_queues() (queue.c:28), called EXACTLY ONCE per process lifetime from xce_config_init's HOOK_AFTER_EVENT branch (cluster.c, fired during cluster_init_phase2 at process boot/restart) -- and build_queues() is UNCONDITIONAL/blind-create (no existence check before calling create_queue/makeQueue for every queue in the config), so it is UNSAFE to simply re-call on a live cluster with existing queue objects (would attempt to recreate already-existing queues, risking duplicate-key/corruption semantics that were never designed for a live re-provisioning call). Consequence: NO MEMBER -- neither the config-upgrade originator NOR a replicating standby NOR any node's own live marker-apply of any kind -- has a working mechanism to add a NEWLY-INTRODUCED queue to its runtime qmgr without a full process restart. The apparent 'originating member vs standby' asymmetry in this bug's original report was COINCIDENTAL, not causal: whichever node's restart (inevitable during a chaotic multi-kill sequence, unrelated to which node 'originated' the upgrade) happened to occur AFTER the new config bytes were already on disk got the new queue for free via its own full boot sequence (xce_config_init -> build_queues); a node whose restart happened to land BEFORE that point, or that never restarted during the scenario at all, does not -- regardless of the fix in (1). This directly contradicts design.md's own stated goal for this spec ('No controller restart is required for a configuration upgrade after this change') for the specific case of a config upgrade that ADDS a queue: today it demonstrably STILL requires a coincidental restart to take effect on any given already-running member. requirements.md's own Design Invariant #1 ('Queues are config-provisioned... update-only restore is safe') is only true for the SNAPSHOT-INSTALL restore path (a fresh/behind joiner materializing a full checkpoint, restore_queue_state, queue.c:208) -- it was never validated against the LIVE no-restart marker-apply path this spec's Requirement 7/Introduction promises, and does not hold there.\n\nNOT fixed as part of config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.6: doing so properly requires new, carefully-designed production logic (a live-safe, idempotent 'sync qmgr from the freshly committed config' function -- e.g. mirroring restore_host_state's exact find-or-create-only shape, worker.c:477-536, adapted for queue_t/c->qmgr) PLUS a deliberate design decision this task is not positioned to make safely under its own time/scope budget: what happens to a queue REMOVED by an upgrade (delete the queue_t? re-home its jobs to lost_and_found -- bug-857's own originally-hypothesized-but-never-implemented mechanism? refuse the upgrade while jobs remain queued?) -- a decision requiring its own requirements/design pass, not an implementation detail. Flagging squarely for whoever owns tasks 1-7 (persist.c/config_repl.c/queue.c materialization logic) as a genuine, previously-undiscovered gap in this spec's core 'no controller restart required' promise, confirmed via TWO independent live soak runs (before and after the ordering fix) reproducing the identical byte-level signature.",

"root_cause": "ROOT-CAUSED AND DISTINGUISHED (2026-07-25, follow-up investigation): the two prior hypotheses are now resolved -- Hypothesis 2 (uninitialized/non-zeroed capnp padding) is REFUTED, Hypothesis 1 (genuine content discrepancy) is CONFIRMED, and the true mechanism is a pre-existing, out-of-spec-boundary bug, NOT part of config-upgrade-snapshot. Evidence: (1) Wrote a byte-precise decoder in Python that walks the checkpoint's [host_count][{payload_len; capnp bytes}] host-frame section (same structural approach as snapverify.c task 8.4) and decodes each frame using the exact wire shape write_HostAdminState produces (HostAdminState_word_count=1, pointer_count=1: one 8-byte data word holding `status` via capn_write32 at data-section offset 0, one 8-byte pointer word for `name` Text). Decoding BOTH /tmp/xce-ha-configupgrade and /tmp/xce-ha-configupgrade-v2's preserved checkpoints for all 3 members shows: host[1] = 'cfgupgrade-host', ctrl-1 status=0x00500000, ctrl-2/ctrl-3 status=0x00000000 -- byte offset 42879 is byte index 2 of the little-endian `status` DATA FIELD itself (data-section file offset 42877-42880), NOT the 4-byte padding word that follows it (file offset 42881-42884), which is 0x00000000 IDENTICALLY across all 3 members in both reproductions. (2) 0x00500000 = XCE_WORKER_CLOSED (0x00100000) | XCE_WORKER_CLOSED_BY_ADMIN (0x00400000) -- exactly the bits worker.c:779 sets for HOST_CLOSE inside worker_ctrl(). This is semantically meaningful admin-closed status, not heap garbage. (3) Independently confirmed capn_init_malloc's segment allocator (create_local in the pinned c-capnproto build, /nix/store/.../capnpc-1.0.1/lib/libCapnC_Runtime.so, disassembled directly) calls calloc(1, size) -- zero-initializing -- so Hypothesis 2 was never physically possible for this library, consistent with the empirically-always-zero padding bytes. (4) Traced the actual mechanism: worker_ctrl() (worker.c:732-794) sets w->host.status on whichever member directly processes the hostctrl RPC (ctrl-1, primary at the time), then fires HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_UPDATE, which persist.c:5722 maps to WAL_WORKER_CTRL and replicates. On EVERY member applying that WAL entry (standbys AND a member's own replay-from-WAL/restart path alike), persist.c:3724's case WAL_WORKER_CTRL calls worker_from_capnp() (worker.c:827-856) UNCONDITIONALLY, regardless of hook_detail (JOIN vs UPDATE vs DEAD all share this one apply path). worker_from_capnp's own idempotency guard (worker.c:847-853) does key_find() and returns -EEXIST if a worker with that name ALREADY EXISTS -- WITHOUT applying any of the just-decoded fields, including status. persist.c:3732-3733 then treats -EEXIST as 'idempotent re-apply, no hook' and silently returns 0, discarding the decoded status update entirely. Since cfgupgrade-host was JOINED (a prior, separate WAL_WORKER_CTRL/HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_JOIN entry) BEFORE it was admin-closed, by the time the UPDATE entry replicates/replays, the worker already exists on every standby -- so the close never lands there. This is NOT specific to config upgrades, checkpoints, or any config-upgrade-snapshot code: it reproduces for ANY `hostctrl -c`/`hostctrl -o` issued against an already-joined host on ANY XCE HA cluster, with zero dependency on a config upgrade ever being submitted. `git log -L` on worker_from_capnp confirms it was introduced 2026-05-08 in commit 9b6a91a8 ('feat: implement restore_job/worker_from_capnp for WAL recovery'), ~2.5 months before config-upgrade-snapshot's spec work began (first spec commit visible ~2026-06-24); no config-upgrade-snapshot task touches this apply path (the spec's own worker.c addition, restore_host_state from commit 5b1600a8, is a wholly separate function used only by the SNAPSHOT-INSTALL restore path, task 4, never by the live WAL_WORKER_CTRL apply switch). collect_host_frames/capnp_encode_host_admin_state (this spec's task 2.1 code) are functioning exactly as designed -- they faithfully serialize whatever w->host.status currently holds; the bug is that w->host.status itself is wrong on ctrl-2/ctrl-3, entirely upstream of any checkpoint/materialization logic. Existing test coverage (test_apply_committed_entry.c:test_ace_worker_ctrl_join_restores_and_notifies) only exercises the fresh-JOIN case; no test exercises WAL_WORKER_CTRL UPDATE against an already-existing worker, confirming this is a genuine untested gap, not a previously-handled case. Filed separately as bug-1472 (the true root cause) since it is a distinct, real, pre-existing mechanism entirely outside config-upgrade-snapshot's boundary -- see that entry for the fix-owner routing. This entry (bug-1471) remains the observed SYMPTOM (checkpoint byte divergence) for task 8.6's soak; the underlying CAUSE is bug-1472.",
"fix": "FIXED -- this was the observed SYMPTOM (checkpoint host-frame byte divergence) of bug-1472's root cause (worker_from_capnp()'s WAL_WORKER_CTRL apply path silently discarding UPDATE payloads against an already-existing worker). bug-1472 was fixed 2026-07-25 (TDD RED->GREEN): worker_from_capnp() now decodes hook_detail before applying its existing-worker idempotency guard, and HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_UPDATE replaces the existing worker's XCE_WORKER_ADMIN_MASK bits with the decoded payload instead of silently no-op'ing on -EEXIST. This directly closes bug-1471's exact repro (an admin-close status change failing to replicate to standbys, producing the byte-42879 checkpoint divergence). Note: HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_DEAD was deliberately left unfixed in the same change -- tracked separately as bug-1472-remainder (needs a design decision, not yet resolved).\n\n[Original entry]\nNOT FIXED, AND DELIBERATELY NOT ATTEMPTED IN THIS SPEC -- confirmed genuinely OUT OF config-upgrade-snapshot's scope (see root_cause above). The real fix belongs in worker.c's worker_from_capnp()/persist.c's WAL_WORKER_CTRL apply case (case WAL_WORKER_CTRL, persist.c:3724), which needs to distinguish JOIN semantics (create-if-missing, EEXIST is a legitimate no-op) from UPDATE/DEAD semantics (an already-existing worker is the EXPECTED case, and the decoded fields -- at minimum host.status -- must still be applied to it, not discarded) -- e.g. an update-in-place path mirroring how restore_host_state (task 3, worker.c, config-upgrade-snapshot's OWN precedent) ORs admin bits into an existing worker rather than treating existing-ness as terminal. That is a genuine, real, previously undiscovered defect (filed as bug-1472) but is squarely core HA worker-control replication, predating this spec by ~2.5 months and untouched by any of its tasks -- fixing it here would be scope creep into a different subsystem's correctness contract, not a config-upgrade-snapshot materialization fix. Task 8.6's soak will keep observing this exact symptom (host-frame byte divergence whenever its scenario admin-closes a host before the final checkpoint) until bug-1472 is fixed by whoever owns worker.c/persist.c's general worker-control replication path. Recommend task 8.6 either (a) accept this as a known, separately-tracked limitation and adjust the soak's own PASS criteria to tolerate it (e.g. skip the admin-close-a-host step, or snapdiff-exclude the host-admin-status byte range) until bug-1472 lands, or (b) block final PASS on bug-1472's fix -- an orchestrator/owner decision, not this investigation's to make.",

"file": "src/controller/worker.c worker_from_capnp (~827-856); src/controller/persist.c case WAL_WORKER_CTRL apply path (~3724-3786)",
"root_cause": "worker_from_capnp() (worker.c:827-856) is invoked UNCONDITIONALLY by persist.c:3731 for every WAL_WORKER_CTRL entry, regardless of its hook_detail discriminator (JOIN, UPDATE, or DEAD all share this one apply path -- see persist.c:3766-3783's switch, which only controls which post-apply NOTIFICATION hook fires, not whether the mutation itself is applied). worker_from_capnp's own idempotency guard (worker.c:847-853): if key_find() on c->workermgr finds a worker with the decoded name ALREADY PRESENT, it returns -EEXIST immediately, WITHOUT applying any decoded field (including host.status) to the existing worker object. persist.c:3732-3733 treats any -EEXIST return as 'idempotent re-apply (replay / resync) -- no hook' and silently returns 0. This EEXIST short-circuit is correct for its originally-intended purpose (a duplicate/replayed JOIN entry for a worker that's already been created should indeed be a no-op), but WAL_WORKER_CTRL is also the opcode for HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_UPDATE (worker.c:732-794's worker_ctrl(), which handles HOST_OPEN/ HOST_CLOSE admin commands, sets w->host.status, then fires exactly this same HOOK_AFTER_EVENT/HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_UPDATE/WAL_WORKER_CTRL path at worker.c:786-787) and HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_DEAD. For UPDATE/DEAD events, the target worker EXISTING is the NORMAL, EXPECTED case (you can only update or kill an already-joined worker) -- yet the same 'already exists -> skip entirely' logic applies, so the decoded status change is silently discarded on every member OTHER than the one that directly processed the original RPC. Confirmed via git blame: worker_from_capnp was introduced 2026-05-08 (commit 9b6a91a8, 'feat: implement restore_job/worker_from_capnp for WAL recovery'), predating config-upgrade-snapshot's spec work by ~2.5 months; no config-upgrade-snapshot task touches this function or the WAL_WORKER_CTRL apply case. Empirically confirmed via byte-precise capnp decode of two independent live-soak checkpoint sets (/tmp/xce-ha-configupgrade{,-v2}): ctrl-1 (which processed a `hostctrl -c` against a previously-joined synthetic host) has host.status=0x00500000 (XCE_WORKER_CLOSED|XCE_WORKER_CLOSED_BY_ADMIN) in its checkpoint's HostAdminState frame; ctrl-2/ctrl-3 (standbys) both show host.status=0x00000000 for the identically-named host entry -- proving the close never reached their live c->workermgr entries. Because a standby's OWN restart+full-WAL-replay hits the identical code path (persist.c's replay call site also routes through apply_committed_entry's same WAL_WORKER_CTRL case), a member that fully replays from LSN 1 would ALSO reconstruct the JOIN first (creating the worker) and then skip the later UPDATE (already exists) -- so this is not even a restart-repairable staleness; the divergence appears to be permanent for that member until directly patched or until some other mechanism re-applies the admin action. General severity: this affects ANY admin host-control action (`hostctrl -c`/`hostctrl -o`) against an already-joined host, unconditionally, cluster-wide -- not just this soak's synthetic cfgupgrade-host scenario.",
"fix": "FIXED 2026-07-25 (TDD: RED test first, confirmed failing against the pre-fix code, then GREEN). worker_from_capnp() (src/controller/worker.c) now decodes the WAL_WORKER_CTRL entry's hook_detail discriminator (the same 4 leading bytes it previously skipped without inspecting) BEFORE applying its existing-worker idempotency guard. When the target worker already exists: HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_JOIN keeps the original -EEXIST no-op (a duplicate JOIN replay is genuinely idempotent -- unchanged, regression-guarded). HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_UPDATE now REPLACES (not ORs -- worker_ctrl()'s HOST_OPEN uses assignment-style &= ~(...) to CLEAR admin bits, so OR would leave a re-opened worker stuck closed) the existing worker's XCE_WORKER_ADMIN_MASK bits with the decoded payload's admin-masked bits, under the worker's own write lock (mirrors restore_host_state's masking discipline, worker.c:487, with replace instead of OR semantics), then returns 0 so persist.c's WAL_WORKER_CTRL apply case (unchanged -- its existing '0 on any successful apply, -EEXIST only for genuine JOIN no-op' contract already handled this generically) falls through to fire the correct HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_UPDATE notification instead of silently discarding the status change. HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_DEAD is DELIBERATELY LEFT UNFIXED (still -EEXIST/no-op) -- investigated, not skipped: mark_worker_unavail()'s mutation (worker.c:661-679) is NOT confined to XCE_WORKER_ADMIN_MASK (sets XCE_WORKER_UNAVAIL + dead_since + resets hostattrs_t to 'unknown' + zeroes resource-value slots via set_host_slots), and critically, the live per-host resource-value array xce_worker_t.resvals (a zarray_t, what set_host_slots actually mutates and what scheduling reads) is NOT part of the Worker capnp wire schema at all -- only the separate resvals_to_sched/nresvals_to_sched fields are (confirmed by reading the generated decode_Worker/encode_Worker in controller.capnp.c and the schema in controller.capnp). A naive status-replace for DEAD would be an incomplete fix (would not zero standbys'/replayers' resource slots on a dead-worker event, a real correctness gap for POST-PROMOTION scheduling since the newly-promoted primary would read stale, non-zeroed slots) and needs its own investigation into whether/how to extend the wire schema -- filed separately as bug-1472-remainder below rather than rushed. Fix verified via 2 new + regression tests in test_apply_committed_entry.c (test_ace_worker_ctrl_update_applies_to_existing_worker, test_ace_worker_ctrl_update_replaces_not_ors_admin_bits, test_ace_worker_ctrl_join_duplicate_existing_is_noop -- the last one a regression guard proving JOIN's existing no-op behavior is unchanged) plus the full controller_unit_test suite: baseline (this worktree, immediately pre-fix) 1030 Tests 0 Failures, post-fix 1033 Tests 0 Failures (net +3, exactly the new tests, zero regressions). persist.c was NOT touched -- confirmed its WAL_WORKER_CTRL apply case (persist.c:3724-3786) already treats any non-negative worker_from_capnp() return as a successful apply generically (re-looks-up the worker by name and fires the hook_detail-keyed notification unconditionally), so returning 0 from the new UPDATE branch required no caller-side change.\n\n[UPDATE 2026-08-16] Tag hygiene: this entry's own UPDATE-case fix landed 2026-07-25 (commit 7547a8f1) but its tags were never updated off 'not-fixed'/'needs-owner'.

It correctly identifies ctrl-1 (peer[0]) as missing (reconnect attempt fails with ECONNREFUSED, confirmed in both runs' logs: 'HA: connect to peer[0] (localhost:9991) failed: -111') -- but it ALSO, incorrectly, identifies ctrl-3 (peer[2]) as missing, even though ctrl-3 has been continuously connected the whole time via its slot-1 promoted-vote-channel connection (confirmed acking WAL entries without any gap throughout, via ctrl-2.log's 'commit: ack standby_idx=1' sequence). This triggers a redundant outbound reconnect to ctrl-3 (on_standby_connected fires: 'HA: outbound standby connection to peer[2] established' + 'HA: repl registered late-joiner standby peer[2] (slot 0, localhost:9993)'). (4) repl_add_standby's slot allocation picks the FIRST EMPTY slot by lowest index (repl.c ~85-110) with no regard for whether that slot still holds an unexpired bug-1147 disconnect guard for a DIFFERENT peer -- it picks slot 0 (ctrl-1's just-freed, guard-holding slot, since it is lower-indexed than slot 1) and unconditionally memsets it to zero, WIPING OUT ctrl-1's last_disconnected_lsn guard entirely. (5) When the marker-triggered checkpoint's trim runs shortly after, repl_trim_lsn (repl.c ~650-683) sees slot 0 now occupied by a live, fully-caught-up ctrl-3 duplicate connection (contributing no meaningful floor-lowering) and slot 1 also fully caught up -- with NO surviving trace that ctrl-1 (still down, still needing its old floor) was ever disconnected. floor collapses to the active segment itself, and every segment below it -- including the one ctrl-1 genuinely still needs -- is deleted. This is NOT a bug in bug-1147's guard logic (repl_trim_lsn/trim_wal_segments are working exactly as designed against the replicator state they are handed); it is an upstream defect in how a duplicate/late-joiner reconnect for an ALREADY-connected peer gets allocated a replicator slot. Root cause of WHY the 'peer already has a standby endpoint' check (ha.c ~9225-9249) fails to recognize ctrl-3's existing promoted-vote-channel connection is not fully pinned to a single line -- standby_ep_ctx_t is deliberately layout-compatible with vote_ep_ctx_t (confirmed by direct struct read, ha.c:8590-8603, both start with ha/c/ctx/peer_idx in the same order, so the blind cast the check performs is NOT a type-confusion bug) -- but vote_ep_ctx_t.peer_idx appears to be populated under inconsistent conventions across its several creation call sites in ha.c (e.g. line 542 sets peer_idx=votes_idx [relative, votes-array index] while a comment at line ~6120 asserts 'vctx->peer_idx is the ABSOLUTE cluster index' for a different call site) -- a mismatch between the relative votes_idx_for_i the check computes and whichever convention the SPECIFIC promoted vote_ep_ctx_t for ectx->votes[i].ep was actually built under would make the sctx->peer_idx == votes_idx_for_i comparison fail deterministically for promoted-vote-channel entries, matching the 100% reproduction rate observed. This needs further tracing by whoever owns ha.c's HA connection-management code to identify the exact mismatched call site.",
"fix": "[UPDATE 2026-08-16] Angle-a FIXED (TDD RED->GREEN, root-caused precisely -- not the original peer_idx-convention hypothesis, a different, concrete bug in an adjacent function). Traced every vote_ep_ctx_t.peer_idx assignment site as recommended: raft_cb_send_vote_request (real vote, ha.c) correctly sets peer_idx=votes_idx (RELATIVE) and is the ONLY function that stores its endpoint into ectx->votes[] (the array raft_cb_become_leader's promotion loop reads) -- confirmed by full read, no ectx->votes[].ep assignment exists anywhere else. raft_cb_send_pre_vote_request deliberately sets peer_idx=ABSOLUTE (correct, documented, needed by the PreVote tally) but NEVER stores into ectx->votes[] either -- so PreVote endpoints structurally can never reach promotion, ruling out the original hypothesis (PreVote-vs-real-vote convention mismatch reaching the reconnect-sweep check). ha->my_priority is set once at init and never reassigned, ruling out a self-idx-drift hypothesis too. The reconnect-sweep check itself (primary_heartbeat_fn, ~line 9787) already correctly discriminates promoted-vote-ep (relative) vs standby-ep (absolute) via sctx->ctx != NULL, unchanged since 2026-06-01 (predates this bug's 2026-07-25 discovery, confirmed via git log -L) -- it was never the bug. The REAL bug: on_standby_connected's own same-peer duplicate-eviction check (the function's OWN doc comment already named this exact hazard -- 'two live outbound state-push channels to one peer') compared cur_sctx->peer_idx == sctx->peer_idx DIRECTLY, with no relative/absolute discrimination at all -- unlike the adjacent, correct reconnect-sweep check ~500 lines away. sctx (the newly-connecting standby) always carries the ABSOLUTE index; if the existing entry for the same physical peer is a promoted vote ep (RELATIVE), the raw comparison can never match, so the stale promoted-vote channel is never evicted -- both channels survive, reproducing the buglog's exact live evidence (heartbeats/WAL fan out to a stale duplicate; the genuinely-connected promoted channel's own bug-1147 disconnect-guard slot gets silently reused by the SECOND, spurious connect attempt for the SAME live peer). Fix: apply the identical votes_idx_for_i conversion the reconnect-sweep check already uses, in on_standby_connected's eviction loop, discriminating on cur_sctx->ctx != NULL exactly as that check does. Regression test (test_ha_liveness.c's test_reconnect_resolves_dual_channel_promoted_vote_ep): stale entry is a genuine promoted-vote-ep test double (vote_ep_ctx_build_for_test, relative peer_idx) for the same physical peer a fresh standby reconnect targets (absolute peer_idx) -- RED under the pre-fix code (both channels survive, zero evictions -- the existing sibling test, test_reconnect_resolves_dual_channel_same_peer, only ever exercised the standby-vs-standby case, both absolute, which is why this mixed case slipped through originally), GREEN under the fix (exactly one channel survives, one eviction). Full controller_unit_test suite: 1100 tests, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures (bug-1561), no regressions. NOT independently re-verified via a live multi-node chaotic soak (the class of test that originally discovered this bug) -- the unit test directly constructs and proves the exact mechanism the live soak's log evidence showed, but a live re-run of config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9's --config-upgrade-wal-trim scenario would be the strongest additional confirmation if this is revisited.\n\n[Original entry -- angle-b, already fixed 2026-07-26]\n\nNOT FIXED -- explicitly out of config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9's boundary (task 8.9 is a regression test for the pre-existing, unmodified bug-1147 guard under the NEW marker-triggered trigger path, not a fix for this separately-discovered HA connection-management defect). Two independent, complementary fix angles for whoever owns ha.c/repl.c's HA connection layer: (a) fix the 'peer already has a standby endpoint' check (ha.c ~9225-9249) so it correctly recognizes an existing promoted-vote-channel connection for a peer, eliminating the spurious duplicate/late-joiner reconnect entirely (the more targeted fix, addresses the root cause) -- likely requires auditing every vote_ep_ctx_t.peer_idx assignment site (ha.c lines 542, 697, 6956, and whichever one specifically constructs ectx->votes[i].ep's ep->data) against the relative-votes_idx convention votes_idx_for_i expects; (b) independently harden repl_add_standby's slot allocation (repl.c) to never silently clobber a slot whose last_disconnected_lsn guard has not yet expired per snap_interval_s -- e.g. skip a guard-holding slot in the first-empty-slot scan (falling through to a genuinely empty slot, or failing loud if none exists) -- this is a defense-in-depth hardening of bug-1147's own retention mechanism against ANY future caller that might reuse a slot prematurely, not just this specific duplicate-connection path. Recommend (b) regardless of whether (a) is fixed, since it directly protects the invariant Requirement 7.4 cares about. The run_config_upgrade_wal_trim_round test infrastructure (run-ha-soak.sh, config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9) is CORRECT and reproducibly catches this defect via direct on-disk WAL segment inspection -- re-run `run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade-wal-trim` after either fix lands to confirm a clean PASS; task 8.9 itself should stay incomplete/blocked on this bug per its own scope boundary (mirrors task 8.6's bug-1471/1472 precedent).\n\n[UPDATE 2026-07-26] FIXED (fix angle (b), the repl.c defense-in-depth hardening): repl_add_standby's slot-allocation scan (repl.c) now does a two-pass search instead of first-empty-slot-by-index. Pass 1 prefers a genuinely virgin slot (ep==NULL && last_disconnected_lsn==0). Pass 2 (fallback, only when no virgin slot exists) reuses the guard-holding slot (ep==NULL && last_disconnected_lsn!=0) with the OLDEST last_disconnect_time -- a deliberate policy: that guard is closest to its own natural repl_expire_disconnect_slots expiry, so reusing it discards the LEAST remaining WAL-retention protection of any guard-holding slot. With MAX_STANDBYS==3, the exhausted case (both non-primary slots simultaneously guard-holding, no virgin slot free) is handled by this same fallback rather than -ENOSPC -- refusing a legitimate new/reconnecting peer would be worse for cluster availability than accepting an early guard loss in an already-degraded state; the pre-existing -ENOSPC path (more distinct live peers than MAX_STANDBYS slots) is untouched, reserved for that genuinely-impossible case only.\nTDD: two new unit tests added to src/controller/testsuite/test_repl_unit.c -- test_repl_add_standby_prefers_virgin_slot_over_guard (RED under the old code: asserted a new unrelated peer must not land in a lower-indexed guard-holding slot when a virgin slot exists, and that the guard's last_disconnected_lsn must survive untouched) and test_repl_add_standby_exhausted_guards_prefers_oldest_disconnect (RED under the old code: asserted the exhausted-fallback deliberately picks the OLDER-disconnected guard slot, not merely the lowest-indexed one -- the test deliberately makes 'oldest-disconnected' and 'lowest-indexed' point at DIFFERENT slots so an accidental first-guard-by-index fallthrough would still fail it). Both new tests failed pre-fix, pass post-fix.\nGREEN: full controller_unit_test suite = 1030 tests (1028 known-good baseline + 2 new), 0 failures, no regressions (ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0, nix develop build via `ninja -C src/xce.build controller/controller_unit_test`).\nrepl_remove_standby, repl_expire_disconnect_slots, repl_trim_lsn, and trim_wal_segments were NOT modified -- all confirmed correct and untouched, per this fix's scope.\nThis fix does NOT address fix angle (a) -- the separate ha.c heartbeat-reconnect-sweep defect (vote_ep_ctx_t.peer_idx convention mismatch hypothesis, ha.c ~9219-9254 / ~8687-8708) that triggers the spurious duplicate reconnect in the first place -- that remains a separate, not-fully-root-caused issue, out of this fix's scope. Recommend re-running `run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade-wal-trim` (config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9) to confirm this defense-in-depth closes the observed WAL-segment-loss symptom even without (a) landing.\n\n[UPDATE 2026-07-26, post-review remediation] Independent review REJECTED the initial fix on one finding: the Pass 2 exhausted-fallback branch silently destroyed the reused slot's last_disconnected_lsn/last_disconnect_time via memset with zero logging, undercutting the fix's own stated goal of making the previously-silent WAL-retention-guard destruction visible/bounded -- this file already has an established convention for exactly this class of event (repl_broadcast's WARN(\"repl_broadcast: no standbys registered...\") and WARN(\"repl_broadcast: standby %s:%u evicted...\")). Remediated: repl_add_standby now tracks whether Pass 1 found a virgin slot (used_fallback_slot) and, only on the genuine Pass 2 fallback path, logs WARN(\"repl_add_standby: reusing guard-holding slot %d (host=%s:%u, last_disconnected_lsn=%lu) -- no virgin slot available, WAL-retention protection discarded\", ...) immediately before the memset, capturing the discarded slot's host/port/last_disconnected_lsn while they're still readable. No new test required (a log line has no observable return-value/state effect for a test to assert on) -- verified instead by confirming the WARN string is present in the built binary (`strings controller_unit_test | grep 'reusing guard-holding slot'`) and that both existing bug-1474 tests (test_repl_add_standby_prefers_virgin_slot_over_guard, test_repl_add_standby_exhausted_guards_prefers_oldest_disconnect -- the latter specifically exercises the Pass 2 path this WARN sits on) still pass unchanged. GREEN: full controller_unit_test suite = 1033 tests (1030 baseline + bug-1472's 3 concurrently-landed tests), 0 failures. NOTE: a transient stale-object-file build artifact was observed once in this shared build directory during verification (a link picked up an out-of-date worker.c.o from a moment when a concurrent sibling agent's build was in flight, showing 2 spurious failures unrelated to this change) -- resolved by touching the affected sources to force recompilation; not a defect in this fix, noted here in case it recurs for a future concurrent multi-agent session in this worktree.",

"error_message": "Follow-up split out of bug-1472: HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_DEAD entries applied via WAL_WORKER_CTRL against an already-existing worker still return -EEXIST (no-op) -- a dead-worker transition detected by one member (mark_worker_unavail(), worker.c:661-679) still never replicates its state to other members (standbys, or this member's own WAL replay), unconditionally. NOT a regression: this was already true before bug-1472's investigation; bug-1472's fix deliberately scoped itself to the byte-precise-confirmed HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_UPDATE case only and left DEAD as -EEXIST/no-op, unchanged.",
"file": "src/controller/worker.c worker_from_capnp (~827-895, post-bug-1472-fix); mark_worker_unavail (~661-679); src/schema/controller.capnp struct Worker (~136-144)",
"root_cause": "mark_worker_unavail()'s mutation is NOT confined to XCE_WORKER_ADMIN_MASK the way worker_ctrl()'s is -- it sets XCE_WORKER_UNAVAIL (a non-admin bit), dead_since, resets hostattrs_t to 'unknown' sentinel strings, AND zeroes the live per-host resource-value slots via set_host_slots()/update_resvals(), which mutates xce_worker_t.resvals (a zarray_t of live xce_val_t entries). Critically, w->host.resvals is NOT part of the Worker capnp wire schema at all (confirmed by reading src/schema/controller.capnp's struct Worker and the generated decode_Worker/encode_Worker in controller.capnp.c) -- only the separate resvals_to_sched/nresvals_to_sched fields (a different, scheduler-push-facing concept) are encoded. So even applying a simple 'replace admin-masked bits' fix analogous to bug-1472's UPDATE fix would NOT fully replicate a DEAD transition's effects: the resource-value slot zeroing would still be silently lost on every other member, which matters materially at PROMOTION time (a newly-promoted primary would read stale, non-zeroed slots for a worker that died before promotion, potentially over-scheduling a dead host). A correct fix needs either (a) a schema change adding a wire-encodable resource-value-slots field so the DEAD payload can carry it, or (b) a different replication strategy for DEAD (e.g. re-deriving 'this worker's connection is gone locally' independently on each member rather than replicating a mutation), which is a design decision beyond a same-task patch.",
"fix": "FIXED (TDD RED->GREEN), design direction chosen by user: wire-encode the resource-value-slot zeroing rather than a non-replicated per-member re-derivation. Investigation revised the original design framing: NO new capnp schema field was actually needed. capnp_encode_worker (persist_worker_hook_fun) already serializes the FULL xce_worker_t.host -- including `attrs` (HostAttrs) -- on every WAL_WORKER_CTRL entry, and mark_worker_unavail() calls reset_hostattrs_unknown() BEFORE firing the hook that triggers that encode, so a DEAD entry's wire payload already carries the post-reset 'unknown'/0 attrs state. The actual gap was narrower: worker_from_capnp() had no DEAD branch at all (fell through to the JOIN-duplicate -EEXIST no-op), so nothing ever APPLIED what was already on the wire. Fixed by adding a DEAD branch (worker.c) mirroring the existing UPDATE branch (bug-1472's own fix): sets XCE_WORKER_UNAVAIL, takes dead_since from the decoded payload's deadSince field (the PRIMARY's own death timestamp -- genuinely wire-driven, not locally re-derived, honoring the chosen design direction), and calls reset_hostattrs_unknown()+add_hostattrs_resvals()+set_host_slots(0) locally to re-derive the resvals from the now-reset attrs -- these three calls are deterministic/data-independent (same effect mark_worker_unavail() itself produces on the primary), so xce_worker_t.resvals (the zarray_t the original investigation worried about) never needs to cross the wire at all. Regression test (test_apply_committed_entry.c's test_ace_worker_ctrl_dead_applies_to_existing_worker): pre-existing worker with live (non-'unknown') attrs receives a DEAD WAL entry with a specific non-zero deadSince -- RED under the pre-fix code (rc=-EEXIST, no mutation, no notification, the exact silent-discard this entry describes), GREEN under the fix (XCE_WORKER_UNAVAIL set, dead_since matches the payload exactly, hostattrs reset to 'unknown'/0, one notification fires). Full controller_unit_test suite: 1101 tests, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures (bug-1561), no regressions.\n\n[Original entry]\nNOT FIXED -- deliberately deferred, investigated not skipped (see bug-1472's own fix note for the full investigation).

"root_cause": "NOT data loss, NOT bug-1472 (worker/host admin-status replication is unaffected \u2014 unrelated subsystem, and its own checks passed). This is a standby catch-up LIVENESS stall: ctrl-1 (which had itself served as primary in term=2 before being killed in round 1 of the chaotic sequence, then restarted) got permanently stuck at applied_lsn=12 and never advanced again for the rest of the run. ctrl-1's own log (`ha_consume_append_entries`) shows a revealing pattern: a zero-entry PROBE AppendEntries at prevIdx=12,n=0 correctly succeeds with match=12 (confirming index 12 IS ctrl-1's true, correct log tip), but the very next entry-carrying AppendEntries from the SAME dispatch cycle uses prevIdx=13 (not 12) for n=1, which ctrl-1 correctly rejects with event=ae_reject_logmismatch (success=0 match=0) since it has no entry at index 13 yet to check a predecessor against. This 1-off prevIdx computation (using prevIdx=standby_applied_lsn+1 instead of prevIdx=standby_applied_lsn for the FIRST entry of a catch-up batch) means every retry of the SAME heartbeat-driven HA_REPL_STREAM_WAL decision (ha_evaluate_repl_action: standby_lsn(12) < committed_lsn(31) -> stream) recomputes and resends the IDENTICAL doomed range, forever, with zero backtrack/self-correction -- confirmed via ctrl-2's log: 'HA repl: standby[0] lsn=12 < committed_lsn=31 -> stream WAL batches' repeats verbatim every ~3s from 04:31:26 through 04:32:26 (60+ seconds, 20+ identical retries, zero progress) after ctrl-2 had already logged 'repl_broadcast: standby localhost:9991 evicted (pending_ack_count=17 > 16) -- triggering catch-up reconnect' and 'HA quorum lost: connected=0 required=1'. Once the soak's own force_elect_node killed the OTHER standby (ctrl-3) as its spoiler maneuver, ctrl-1 became the sole remaining standby, and its permanent inability to catch up meant the primary could never regain 2-of-3 write quorum again -- every subsequent job submission timed out (`commit: async continuation deadline expired`, `jobsubmit_commit_continuation: lsn=N commit failed/timed out (rc=-110)`), exactly matching the soak's observed '0/3 acked; waiting for write-quorum' x5 before hard-failing. Superficially similar symptom signature to already-FIXED bug-1028 (same 'ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby: standby[0] lsn=X < committed_lsn=Y -> stream WAL batches' log line looping indefinitely post-failover) but a DIFFERENT specific AE-reject reason -- bug-1028 was a logOk TERM-mapping mismatch (raw hdr.term vs persist_entry_term legacy mapping), fixed 2026-06-23; this is `ae_reject_logmismatch`, which reads like a prevLogIndex/off-by-one issue in how the catch-up streamer picks the FIRST entry's predecessor index, not a term problem -- so this is either a narrower unfixed variant of the same family, or a new regression in a related code path. NOT root-caused down to the exact defective line (this investigation was a live-soak VERIFICATION run for a DIFFERENT bug, not a fix task) -- flagging for whoever picks this up next to read ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby/ha_stream_wal_to_standby's prevIdx computation directly and compare against ctrl-1's actual persisted log at lsn=12/13 (waldump). Also notable: this specific soak step (force_elect_node's spoiler-kill-then-submit maneuver, previously only exercised by --sequential mode's post-loop 'leadership coverage' step against an otherwise-calm, fully-settled cluster) had never previously been run immediately after --config-upgrade's THREE rounds of aggressive overlapping chaotic kills plus a live config upgrade -- this specific combination/history may be what's needed to reproduce the stall, rather than it being config-upgrade-specific.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-07-27/28, via a regression test + real-instrumentation debugging session that continued this entry's original live-soak finding). Landed as THREE coordinated changes, all required together -- the first two alone left the new regression test (test_bug1475_catchup_survives_midstream_checkpoint, test_config_repl.c) RED with applied_lsn stuck at 0 for the whole run:\n\n1. SEND side (config_repl.c, ha_stream_wal_to_standby): when scanning the WAL for entries to stream, a WAL_CHECKPOINT entry is still never built/sent as its own catchup entry, but the prev_log_index/prev_log_term tracker now advances across it like every other scanned entry, instead of freezing one entry behind. A standby that independently applied the same committed WAL_CONFIG_MARKER writes its OWN local checkpoint at the identical LSN (deterministic per-member trigger), so the checkpoint's LSN is a real, held position on both sides, not a gap to skip past chaining-wise.\n\n2. RECEIVE side (ha.c, ha_apply_term_entry_via_library): a JIT resync reads persist_durable_floor(p) and monotonically raises ha->raft.log_len to match before consuming each AppendEntries -- mirroring ha_sync_raft_log_from_recovery's boot-time computation, but applied live on the AE-receive path. This corrects for persist_write_checkpoint_marker (bug-1466, still not fixed at ITS root) advancing persist_t's current_lsn without going through raft_log_append, which otherwise leaves ha->raft.log_len stale and fails logOk's prev_log_index<=log_len bound forever.\n\n3. TERM-INDEX side (persist.c, record_entry_term/entry_term_locked) -- a THIRD, previously-undiscovered gap, found only via live fprintf instrumentation of the new regression test after fixes 1-2 above still left it RED. Fixes 1-2 both depend on persist_entry_term(checkpoint_lsn) reading back 'absent' (0) FOREVER on every member (the explicit, twice-documented design intent in both fixes' own comments and in persist_write_checkpoint_marker's comment). That invariant was actually FALSE: record_entry_term's geometric-growth realloc zero-filled any never-explicitly-recorded gap slot (like a checkpoint's own LSN, which is deliberately never passed to record_entry_term), and entry_term_locked's `lsn <= term_index_count` presence check then read that zero-fill back as WAL_LEGACY_TERM (1), not absent (0), the INSTANT any LATER lsn was recorded and grew term_index_count past the gap -- which happens immediately on a live leader (it appends real entries right after the checkpoint) but not yet on a receiver that has not itself appended past its own checkpoint. So the checkpoint LSN's 'term' was TIME-DEPENDENT: the sender (which streams AFTER its own later entries exist) computed prev_log_term=1 for the entry right after the checkpoint, while the receiver's honest, not-yet-grown term index still (correctly, per design) read 0 for the same LSN -- logOk's equality check spuriously mismatched (0 != 1) and rejected forever, exactly reproducing this entry's original ae_reject_logmismatch signature. Confirmed with real fprintf instrumentation at the streamer, the JIT resync, and raft.c's logOk check (added and removed during this investigation, not left in the tree): prev_log_term flipped from 0 to 1 in the SAME test run, immediately after the leader appended its 2nd post-checkpoint entry. Fixed with a TERM_INDEX_UNSET sentinel (UINT64_MAX) that record_entry_term's growth path now fills gap slots with (instead of 0), and entry_term_locked treats as absent -- so a never-explicitly-written slot reads absent PERMANENTLY, independent of later array growth. Confined to persist.c's two functions plus the term_index doc comment in persist.h; no other call site reads p->term_index[] directly.\n\nAlso completed as part of this fix: (a) audited whether WAL entry types OTHER than WAL_CHECKPOINT bypass record_entry_term the same way -- confirmed NO: WAL_CHECKPOINT (value 100) is the numeric max of wal_entry_type, persist_wal_async and persist_wal_write_replicated both explicitly reject type==WAL_CHECKPOINT up front (it cannot reach record_entry_term via either live path), and replay_wal's `hdr.type < WAL_CHECKPOINT` recording guard already covers every other currently-defined type (WAL_JOB_UPDATE=7, WAL_QUEUE_CTRL=20, WAL_WORKER_CTRL=30, WAL_NOOP=40, WAL_CONFIG_MARKER=50); (b) confirmed no interaction with the RequestVote/PreVote freshness gates (raft.c raft_log_ok, shared by raft_on_vote_request/raft_on_pre_vote_request): that gate also reads on_get_entry_term(s->log_len), which can legitimately land on a checkpoint LSN after the JIT resync in fix 2 -- the TERM_INDEX_UNSET fix makes that read deterministic (always absent) instead of time-dependent, which is a consistency IMPROVEMENT for vote freshness too, not a behavior change in the unsafe direction; full test_ha_prevote.c/test_ha_failover_prevote.c suites pass unchanged. Full regression suite: 1034 Tests, 0 Failures (was 1033/1034 with the new test failing before this fix). Files changed: src/controller/config_repl.c (REAL logic change, landed earlier in this same bug-1475 investigation: ha_stream_wal_to_standby's WAL_CHECKPOINT branch now falls through to the unconditional prev-tracker advance via `hdr.lsn > standby_lsn && hdr.type != WAL_CHECKPOINT`, instead of a hard `continue` that froze the tracker one entry behind -- plus cross-reference comments added in this later session); src/controller/ha.c (REAL logic change, also landed earlier in this investigation: a ~30-line JIT resync block added to the top of ha_apply_term_entry_via_library that raises ha->raft.log_len from persist_durable_floor(p) before consuming each AppendEntries -- plus cross-reference comments added in this later session); src/controller/persist.c (the TERM_INDEX_UNSET sentinel fix + doc comments, the new logic landed in THIS session); src/controller/testsuite/test_config_repl.c (test_bug1475_catchup_survives_midstream_checkpoint + updated doc comments describing all three fix parts). Correction (coordinator review 2026-07-27/28, Finding 1): an earlier version of this fix summary mischaracterized config_repl.c's and ha.c's changes as 'comment-only, no logic change' -- both carry genuine logic changes; they were simply written in an earlier part of this same bug-1475 investigation than the TERM_INDEX_UNSET sentinel (session 3 of the fix), not left unmodified by it.\n\nFinding 2 (coordinator review, 2026-07-27/28, CONFIRMED REAL and FIXED): after the TERM_INDEX_UNSET fix, the reviewer traced a plausible NEW instance of the identical permanent-wedge bug class, reachable via the SNAPSHOT-INSTALL catch-up path (HA_REPL_SEND_SNAPSHOT, dispatched whenever a standby has fallen too far behind for incremental WAL streaming -- a live, common path) instead of WAL-streaming catch-up. ha_snapshot_do_send (ha.c) computes checkpoint_term = persist_entry_term(leader, c->persist.checkpoint_lsn) and ships it on the wire; the receiver's ha_handle_snapshot_chunk calls persist_reconcile_checkpoint_term(p, checkpoint_lsn, checkpoint_term), which called record_entry_term(p, checkpoint_lsn, checkpoint_term) directly -- an EXPLICIT write, not a growth-fill, so it never got the TERM_INDEX_UNSET sentinel even when checkpoint_term==0. entry_term_locked's pre-existing legacy-0 rule then read that raw 0 back as WAL_LEGACY_TERM(1), forever -- permanently diverging from the leader's own permanently-absent(0) value for the SAME lsn whenever c->persist.checkpoint_lsn (== last_applied_lsn at general persist_checkpoint() time, NOT the WAL_CHECKPOINT entry's own physical lsn) happens to coincide with a checkpoint's own un-recorded lsn -- a real, reachable quiescent-state timing (the apply pump has walked, one lsn at a time including a no-op pass over checkpoint slots, all the way to exactly the checkpoint's own position before the next persist_checkpoint()+snapshot-send cycle runs, e.g. right after a config upgrade with no immediate follow-up activity) -- not the common case, but real and worth closing. Proven with a dedicated regression test (test_bug1475_finding2_snapshot_install_checkpoint_term_absent, test_config_repl.c) that drives the REAL ha_send_snapshot_to_standby -> ha_handle_snapshot_chunk -> persist_reconcile_checkpoint_term path (via the xce_snapshot_chunk_hook test seam) with a leader whose checkpoint_lsn is deliberately seeded (via last_applied_lsn) to coincide with its checkpoint's own physical lsn -- confirmed RED by temporarily reverting only persist_reconcile_checkpoint_term's fix (receiver read back term=1, not the expected absent=0) and GREEN after restoring it. Fixed with the SAME TERM_INDEX_UNSET sentinel: persist_reconcile_checkpoint_term now substitutes TERM_INDEX_UNSET for a wire checkpoint_term of exactly 0 before calling record_entry_term, instead of recording the raw 0 -- a wire value of 0 is unambiguous today (ha_snapshot_do_send is the ONLY sender and always computes it via persist_entry_term, whose public contract already returns a DIFFERENT value, WAL_LEGACY_TERM, for a present-but-legacy-0 entry -- so a public 0 can only mean genuinely, permanently absent). A genuinely non-zero checkpoint_term (any real historical term) is still recorded verbatim and still correctly overwrites a stale local term at that LSN, unchanged -- the pre-existing STALE-TERM reconcile test (test_ha_core_safety.c's test_3_1_snapshot_install_does_not_reconcile_boundary_term, CHECKPOINT_TERM=7, a synthetic non-zero value) is unaffected and still passes. Also fixed the stale 'zeroed-on-grow' comment at persist.c's truncate_term_index_locked (grown slots are TERM_INDEX_UNSET-filled since the original TERM_INDEX_UNSET fix, not zero-filled -- comment had not been updated). Re-verified RequestVote/PreVote freshness non-interference for this second fix too: persist_reconcile_checkpoint_term's caller (ha_handle_snapshot_chunk) never touches ha->raft.log_len or any vote-path state; the fix only changes what value entry_term_locked returns for a checkpoint-boundary LSN after a snapshot install (now consistently absent instead of inconsistently WAL_LEGACY_TERM), which is the SAME direction of improvement (deterministic absence vs time/path-dependent) the original TERM_INDEX_UNSET fix already established as safe for the freshness gate.

No mutex protects myconf->cluster_config across this read-free-decode sequence, so two overlapping invocations of handle_repl_config_push -> config_activate_committed -> load_primary_config for the same node race on the shared myconf->cluster_config pointer. This matches the class of concern already flagged (but not as a crash) in bug-976/bug-981 (handle_repl_config_push / config_activate_committed activation-ordering races) -- this is a NEW, more severe manifestation: an actual heap-corruption crash, not just an ordering/verification gap. Plausible trigger in this specific soak: heavy duplicate/late-joiner reconnect churn was independently observed on ctrl-2 (the primary) around the same window (bug-1474's WARN 'reusing guard-holding slot' fired twice, confirming the still-open, out-of-scope ha.c heartbeat-reconnect-sweep defect -- bug-1474's un-addressed 'fix angle (a)' -- was actively spawning duplicate/late-joiner standby connections during this round). If the primary sent the same config-push payload to ctrl-3 twice (once per duplicate connection), ctrl-3 could dispatch two concurrent handle_repl_config_push invocations on separate VTASK_LIVE_BLOCK workers, which is consistent with the observed T5/T6 race. This causal link (duplicate-connection churn -> duplicate config-push delivery -> concurrent load_primary_config race) is a plausible hypothesis from timeline correlation, not confirmed by direct evidence of two inbound config-push messages -- flagged as a hypothesis for whoever investigates, not a proven mechanism.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-07-28). Two-part fix in load_primary_config() (config_repl.c), independently reviewed and verified via a real pthread-based deterministic race test: (1) added myconf_t.lock (mylock_t, mirrors replicator_t.lock's idiom in repl.c) serializing the entire free-decode-publish sequence against any concurrent load_primary_config() call for the same myconf_t -- initialized in main.c before first use, finalized in myconf_fini(), and in the t43_attach_myconf/t43_free_myconf test fixture. (2) load_cluster_config_from_file() now decodes into a LOCAL temporary (cluster_config_t *tmp), never directly into the shared myconf->cluster_config field -- decode_ClusterConfig_ptr (lib/controller.capnp.c) calloc's and publishes its pointer via the out-parameter BEFORE decode_ClusterConfig populates nested fields (e.g. resources), so decoding into a local closes the early-publish exposure at its source; myconf->cluster_config is only swapped in after the new config is fully decoded and validated, still under myconf->lock. Part (2) is independently necessary because several other readers (cluster.c, queue.c, sched.c, worker.c, apiserver.c, ctrlstatus.c, reply.c) read c->myconf->cluster_config without ever taking myconf->lock, so the field itself must never be observably half-decoded. New regression test test_bug1476_concurrent_load_primary_config_no_uaf_or_double_free (test_config_repl.c) drives two REAL concurrent pthreads through load_primary_config() for the same myconf_t via a deterministic test-only hook (load_primary_config_race_hook, XCE_TESTING-only, NULL/no-op in production) that parks the first thread exactly at the retire-old-config step the live crash raced -- pre-fix this reliably reproduces a genuine ASan-catchable double-free from the same missing-lock root cause; post-fix myconf->lock keeps the second thread blocked for the entire duration, verified both by a captured never-raced-through flag and by the final published config being fully valid, never torn. Full suite: 1035 -> 1036 tests, 0 failures.\n\n[UPDATE 2026-07-28, kiro-impl config-upgrade-snapshot resume] Prior fix landed with a comment block (config_repl.c:639-646) admitting it had been reverted to a RED-phase reproduction (no lock, decode-directly-into-shared-field) for test-construction purposes and NEVER restored to GREEN \u2014 the mylock_init/fini wiring (myconf.h, main.c, myconf.c) landed, but load_primary_config() itself still ran fully unguarded. Full suite run confirmed: test_bug1476_concurrent_load_primary_config_no_uaf_or_double_free FAILED (\"thread B... Expected 0 Was 1\"), i.e. B raced through while A was parked -- the lock was never acquired. Fixed for real: mylock_lock(&myconf->lock) now wraps the ENTIRE load_primary_config() body (acquired first, released at every return including success), and Cap-n-Proto decode now targets a local cluster_config_t *new_config first -- myconf->cluster_config is only freed+swapped after new_config is fully decoded and validated (reserved-name check, generation default), never decoded directly into the shared field. Verified 4/4 clean full-suite runs (1036 Tests 0 Failures 0 Ignored, ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0) after the fix, including the specific race test.

Instead, by the time its stagger delay elapsed, ctrl-1 (priority 0) had already voted/established itself, so myapp_run's own \"leader already known\" check (myapp.c ~343-390: voted_for_name set, or raft.term>0, or primary_ctrl_fd>=0) was true, and ctrl-3 took the `goto skip_election` fast path, entirely bypassing ha_start_election_async and therefore every raft-library election callback for the rest of its process lifetime (it only ever GRANTS votes to others afterward -- confirmed via repeated vote_granted/pre_vote_granted RAFT[p2] events with no corresponding become_follower/become_leader). The skip_election fast path (myapp.c ~415-425, bug-849, commit 20e59d0b, 2026-06-21 -- three-plus weeks before config-upgrade-snapshot's first commit 9e68335a) makes exactly ONE, correctly-guarded attempt at cluster_init_phase2(&c) (checks prc, only sets c.ha.phase2_done=1 on success) -- and at 08:18:26,930, that ONE attempt fired before c->myconf->cluster_config was populated (ctrl-3 had no local config file and had not yet received/activated a push), so cluster_init_phase2 returned -EINVAL immediately (cluster.c:1349-1358, before doing ANY of its real work) and the WARN 'cluster_init_phase2 on standby rejoin failed (rc=-22) -- WAL not recovered; falling back to election-path recovery' fired. phase2_done correctly stayed 0 -- but there is NO OTHER retry mechanism anywhere in the codebase for a node that (a) took the skip_election fast path and (b) never subsequently runs its own contested election: the only other three call sites that could retry (raft_cb_become_follower ha.c:2000-2012, raft_cb_become_leader ha.c:1772-1783, ha_elect_evaluate_and_signal's CTRL_PRIMARY/CTRL_STANDBY branches ha.c:5609-5629/5699-5710) never fire for ctrl-3 because it never engages the raft callback machinery at all. (Separately confirmed those three call sites ALSO unconditionally set ha->phase2_done=1 after calling cluster_init_phase2(c) with NO check of its return value -- unlike myapp.c's own careful guard -- a second, adjacent defect of the same class that did not trigger THIS failure only because ctrl-3 never reached them, but would identically strand any node whose FIRST raft-driven role transition happens to race ahead of config load.) Consequence, confirmed via grep: ctrl-3.log has ZERO occurrences of \"commit engine wired\", \"persist_recover\", \"xce_config_init\", or \"create_lost_and_found\" for the entire run (vs. multiple occurrences on ctrl-1/ctrl-2, once per boot/restart/re-election) -- cluster_init_phase2 (and therefore commit_engine_init, cluster.c:1484-1496) NEVER completed on ctrl-3. persist.c:796-799 documents on_durable_advance (the sole wake hook driving persist_apply_pump_run) as registered ONLY inside commit_engine_init -- so without it, persist_apply_pump_run/apply_committed_entry NEVER runs on ctrl-3, for ANY committed LSN, for the whole process lifetime. This means persist_checkpoint_marker_triggered (config-upgrade-snapshot task 5's own WAL_CONFIG_MARKER-triggered checkpoint, apply_committed_entry's WAL_CONFIG_MARKER case) never fires on ctrl-3 -- explaining precisely why its data/snap/ is empty while ctrl-1/ctrl-2 (whose commit engines DID wire) both hold the identical snap-000000000000000b.capnp. ctrl-3's config nonetheless activates cosmetically at 08:18:48,572 via a SEPARATE, independent code path (handle_repl_config_push -> load_primary_config -> config_activate_committed, an RPC push handler that does not touch the commit engine or apply pump at all) -- masking the underlying defect and making the soak's materialized-state/checkpoint assertions the first thing ever to surface it. bug-1475's three-part fix (config_repl.c's tracker-advance-across-WAL_CHECKPOINT, ha.c's JIT persist_durable_floor resync of ha->raft.log_len, persist.c's TERM_INDEX_UNSET sentinel) is necessary and correctly targets its own class of bug (a receiving standby's log_len bookkeeping merely LAGGING behind a checkpoint it DID independently write) but structurally cannot cover this failure: bug-1475's own fix explicitly documents and depends on the invariant 'a standby that independently applied the SAME committed WAL_CONFIG_MARKER writes its OWN local checkpoint at the identical LSN (deterministic per-member trigger)' -- ctrl-3 violates that precondition outright (it never writes the checkpoint AT ALL, not merely late), so the primary's catch-up stream's prev_log_index=12 (the checkpoint's own lsn, per bug-1475's now-correct sender tracking) checks against an entry ctrl-3 genuinely, permanently does not have. ae_reject_logmismatch is therefore a CORRECT rejection of ctrl-3's true log state, not a stale/racy one -- and since a WAL_CHECKPOINT entry is local-only/non-replicated BY DESIGN (persist_write_checkpoint_marker's own doc comment; persist_wal_write_replicated/persist_wal_async both explicitly reject type==WAL_CHECKPOINT), ctrl-3 can NEVER receive lsn=12 over the wire, and can never independently write it either (cluster_init_phase2/commit_engine_init never retries) -- a genuinely permanent, not merely time-bounded, wedge, exactly matching the soak's observed behavior (unlike bug-1475's transient race, this repeated with zero progress for the entire ~3-minute run). git blame confirms both implicated pre-existing defects (myapp.c's skip_election fast path, commit 20e59d0b bug-849 2026-06-21; ha.c's raft-callback phase2_done latch structure, commit 8f0d2d55 task 6.2 raft-library) predate config-upgrade-snapshot's first commit (9e68335a) by roughly a month -- this is a pre-existing HA bootstrap/election gap, NOT something config-upgrade-snapshot's task 5 introduced. Task 5 merely exposed it by creating a new cross-member structural dependency (every member independently checkpointing at a synchronized marker-boundary LSN) that a node whose commit engine/apply pump never wired silently violates. Before config-upgrade-snapshot, the same underlying gap would have left such a node's materialized state (jobmgr/qmgr/workermgr) permanently stale/un-applied with a much less visible failure signature (no crash, no wedge -- just silently wrong query results if that node were ever promoted), plausibly unnoticed by prior soaks that do not assert per-member materialized-state identity.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-07-28). Root cause: myapp_run's skip_election passive path, and 3 raft-callback call sites (raft_cb_become_leader, raft_cb_become_follower, ha_elect_evaluate_and_signal x2), all latched ha->phase2_done=1 UNCONDITIONALLY right after calling cluster_init_phase2 (or its ha_phase2_hook test seam), discarding its return value entirely -- so a single failed attempt (e.g. racing config availability, cluster_init_phase2 returning -EINVAL because cluster_config wasn't loaded yet) permanently stranded the member: commit_engine_init never ran, so apply_committed_entry never applied ANY committed WAL entry for the rest of that process's life, and -- for a node on the passive skip_election path specifically -- NOTHING else would ever retry it (the other 3 call sites only fire via this node's own raft-library state transitions, which never happen for a passive standby whose primary keeps heartbeating normally).\n\nFix: extracted a shared, idempotent retry mechanism -- ha_phase2_retry_fn (the blocking retry itself, capturing cluster_init_phase2/ha_phase2_hook's real return value, latching phase2_done ONLY on rc==0) plus ha_schedule_phase2_retry (a delaymgr-scheduled, SELF-RESCHEDULING trigger at heartbeat_interval_ms cadence -- unlike upgrade_materialization_retry/config_activate_retry, which are re-triggered externally by recurring commit-advance events, nothing recurring would otherwise ever re-trigger this for a passive skip_election node, so this one self-arms). Wired into all 5 call sites: myapp.c's skip_election block now schedules a retry instead of just WARNing on failure; raft_cb_become_follower and ha_elect_evaluate_and_signal's STANDBY branch likewise (safe to stay passive while retrying); raft_cb_become_leader and ha_elect_evaluate_and_signal's PRIMARY branch additionally REFUSE promotion on failure in raft_cb_become_leader specifically (mirroring the sibling upgrade_materialization_fenced refusal in the same function -- a promoted primary with an unwired commit engine would be far worse than a delayed promotion); the legacy ha_elect_evaluate_and_signal PRIMARY branch does NOT refuse (its ctx->done semaphore is already posted to the caller before this point in that function, so refusing would leave an inconsistent signal -- it proceeds to CTRL_PRIMARY and lets the self-rescheduling retry wire the commit engine shortly after instead).\n\nTDD: 4 new tests in test_config_repl.c (test_ha_phase2_retry_fn_noop_when_already_done, test_ha_phase2_retry_fn_does_not_latch_on_failure_and_succeeds_on_retry -- the core regression, RED confirmed by temporarily reverting the rc-gating back to an unconditional latch and observing the exact predicted failure -- test_schedule_phase2_retry_noop_when_already_done, test_schedule_phase2_retry_noop_when_delaymgr_not_running). GREEN: full controller_unit_test suite = 1044 tests, 0 failures, clean across multiple runs (including the RED/GREEN round-trip).\n\nLive-verified: re-ran run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade (the exact scenario that originally found this bug) -- ctrl-2's log shows the retry mechanism firing for real (4 failed cluster_init_phase2 attempts at ~3s intervals, rc=-22, then success: \"commit engine now wired (bug-1477)\"), and the soak's own checkpoint-identity, config-identity, and host-admin-status-survival assertions (the exact things bug-1477 blocked) all PASS. The soak run subsequently hit a DIFFERENT, seemingly unrelated failure later in its own force-elect-rotation step (repeated commit timeouts, rc=-110, on ctrl-1-as-primary) -- flagged separately, NOT part of this fix's scope; this soak scenario has never previously reached that step (earlier runs always failed earlier, at bug-1471/1472's checkpoint divergence or this bug's own catch-up wedge), so it may be a pre-existing, newly-exposed issue rather than a regression from this fix -- needs its own dedicated investigation.",

"error_message": "config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9 live soak (run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade-wal-trim ~/tmp/xce-ha-waltrim): bug-1474's floor-preservation fix confirmed working (floor segment seg-5 correctly preserved, all below-floor segments correctly trimmed) but the round still FAILED: \"cluster did not reconverge to 3-of-3 after restarting ctrl-1 -- the preserved floor segment did not actually suffice for real incremental catch-up\". ctrl-1 (TARGET, killed+restarted 3x) settles into a PERMANENT, zero-progress loop: its own raft AppendEntries exchanges cleanly reach match=22 with zero ae_reject events (heartbeat probe at prevIdx=22,n=0 -> success=1 match=22, repeating every ~3s forever), while ctrl-2 (primary) simultaneously and forever logs 'HA repl: standby[0] lsn=21 < committed_lsn=22 -> stream WAL batches' / 'ha_stream_wal_to_standby: streamed WAL [21+1..22] to standby' every heartbeat cycle with zero effect -- an off-by-one disagreement (21 vs 22) between the two sides that never reconciles.",
"file": "src/controller/ha.c (repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch's heartbeat/stateReport reply branch, ~6379-6388 pre-fix -- the `target_lsn = max(committed_lsn, last_written)` computation feeding ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby)",
"root_cause": "ROOT-CAUSED with byte/log-precise evidence; NOT a recurrence of bug-1474 (independently re-confirmed working in this same run -- floor preservation and below-floor trim both correct), bug-1475 (independently re-confirmed working -- ctrl-1's own raft log_len/term-index bookkeeping across the checkpoint boundary is clean, zero ae_reject_logmismatch anywhere in its log, unlike bug-1475's own signature), or bug-1477 (ctrl-1 clearly DID wire its commit engine every boot -- multiple 'commit engine wired'/persist_recover lines confirmed, unlike bug-1477's ctrl-3 which never ran its own election at all). This is a THIRD, previously-undiscovered gap in the same 'WAL_CHECKPOINT breaks LSN co-tracking invariants' family already flagged (not fixed at its root) as bug-1466.\n\nGround truth via `xce_test waldump` on the preserved deploy dir (~/tmp/xce-ha-waltrim): ctrl-2's WAL shows lsn=21 as the WAL_CONFIG_MARKER (type UNKNOWN/40 bytes, matching ctrl-2's own log 'Config change committed (marker_lsn=21)') and lsn=22 as a WAL_CHECKPOINT (0-byte payload) -- confirming persist_write_checkpoint_marker (persist.c:1747, `hdr.lsn = p->current_lsn++`) fired immediately after the marker committed and consumed the very next LSN slot, exactly as apply_committed_entry's WAL_CONFIG_MARKER case (persist_checkpoint_marker_triggered) is designed to do (config-upgrade-snapshot task 5). Critically, ctrl-2's OWN commit_advance_locked (commit.c, the SOLE authoritative committed_lsn writer) never logs an advance past 21 anywhere in the run ('commit: committed_lsn 20 -> 21' is the LAST such line) -- the real, majority-gated persist.committed_lsn correctly and permanently stays at 21, since no standby can ever legitimately ack a local-only, non-replicated checkpoint entry.\n\nYet ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby's own log line reports 'committed_lsn=22' from the very next heartbeat cycle onward. Traced to repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch's stateReportMsg branch (ha.c): `last_written = c->persist.current_lsn - 1` (the RAW physical WAL tip, which unconditionally counts EVERY locally-appended entry including a local-only WAL_CHECKPOINT) is combined via `target_lsn = max(committed_lsn, last_written)` and THIS value -- not the real committed_lsn -- is what gets passed into ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby's committed_lsn parameter and printed in its log line. Once ctrl-2 wrote its checkpoint, last_written jumped to 22 and target_lsn followed, permanently outrunning the real committed_lsn by exactly one. Since a checkpoint's own consumed LSN slot is, by design, NEVER streamed (ha_stream_wal_to_standby) or applied (persist_wal_write_replicated / persist_wal_async both explicitly reject type==WAL_CHECKPOINT) by any standby, no standby's applied_lsn can EVER legitimately reach 22 -- ha_evaluate_repl_action's `standby_lsn < committed_lsn` check can never become false, so HA_REPL_CONVERGED is permanently unreachable for any standby once a local checkpoint has interleaved ahead of the next real committed advance. ha_stream_wal_to_standby is correctly re-invoked every heartbeat (per its own logic) but finds nothing new in [22,22] to send every single time -- a deterministic, permanent, zero-progress busy-loop, exactly matching this run's observed symptom (and ctrl-1's own applied_lsn -- correctly capped at 21 by ha_advance_applied_lsn/ha_apply_term_entry_via_library's own last-contiguously-held-LSN semantic, mirrored by ha_handle_snapshot_chunk's snapshot-install path setting applied_lsn=checkpoint_lsn never checkpoint_lsn+1 -- can never satisfy it).\n\nThe `target_lsn = max(committed_lsn, last_written)` fallback's OWN doc comment states its intended purpose narrowly: 'so standbys can catch up even when committed_lsn is stuck at 0 (no replicator-registered standbys to advance it)' -- a cluster-bootstrap convenience. But the code applies the max() UNCONDITIONALLY, not only when committed_lsn==0 -- broader than its own documented justification. This mismatch was latent and harmless until config-upgrade-snapshot task 5 introduced a LIVE, mid-operation local-only WAL entry (the marker-triggered checkpoint) that advances current_lsn without a corresponding real committed advance; bug-1466 already flagged the SAME persist_write_checkpoint_marker current_lsn bump as breaking raft's own log_len co-tracking invariant (affecting vote-freshness comparisons) -- this is a THIRD, distinct consequence of that same architectural gap, this time poisoning the replication-target computation instead. git blame confirms the `target_lsn` code (commit 06135954f, 2026-06-11) predates config-upgrade-snapshot's first commit by roughly two weeks -- a pre-existing HA replication-decision defect that config-upgrade-snapshot's task 5 merely exposed (same routing pattern as bug-1471/1472/1474/1477 before it), not something task 8.9 introduced.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-07-28, narrowly-scoped TDD fix, in-scope to land here per explicit high-confidence + narrow-scope authorization -- unlike bug-1474's angle (a) and bug-1477, which were left for the HA-core spec owner): extracted the target_lsn computation out of repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch into a new small, pure, side-effect-free, directly-unit-testable function `ha_compute_repl_target_lsn(committed_lsn, last_written)` (declared in ha.h, defined in ha.c right after ha_process_standby_state). The fix restores the fallback to EXACTLY its own documented intent: `last_written` is used ONLY when `committed_lsn == 0` (genuine bootstrap, nothing ever committed) -- any other case returns `committed_lsn` unchanged, never leaking a trailing local-only checkpoint's consumed LSN into the convergence decision. repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch's call site now reads `target_lsn = ha_compute_repl_target_lsn(committed_lsn, last_written)`, replacing the old unconditional max(). No other function touched -- ha_evaluate_repl_action, ha_process_standby_state, ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby, ha_stream_wal_to_standby, persist_write_checkpoint_marker, and commit.c's majority_candidate_locked/commit_advance_locked are all confirmed correct and untouched (the bug was purely in what value got PASSED to them, not in their own logic).\n\nTDD: four new unit tests added to src/controller/testsuite/test_ha_role.c (all four call the new pure function directly, no capnp/network scaffolding needed): test_compute_repl_target_lsn_bootstrap_fallback (committed_lsn=0, last_written=42 -> 42, confirms the intended bootstrap behavior is preserved), test_compute_repl_target_lsn_zero_zero (0,0 -> 0, fresh-cluster edge case), test_compute_repl_target_lsn_ignores_trailing_checkpoint_lsn (this bug's EXACT reproduction shape: committed_lsn=21, last_written=22 -> must return 21, not 22 -- confirmed RED under the old unconditional-max code via a temporary revert, 'Expected 21 Was 22', then GREEN after restoring the fix), test_compute_repl_target_lsn_committed_already_ahead (100,50 -> 100, normal steady-state sanity check). GREEN: full controller_unit_test suite = 1040 Tests, 0 Failures, 0 Ignored, run twice clean (ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0, nix devshell, `ninja -C src/xce.build controller/controller_unit_test`). RED confirmed independently: reverting only the new function's body to the old unconditional-max logic (leaving the new tests in place) reproduced exactly 1 failure at the predicted assertion ('Expected 21 Was 22'), then re-applying the fix restored 0 failures -- proving the test genuinely exercises this bug and the fix genuinely closes it, not a tautological test.\n\nNOT yet re-verified via a fresh live `run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade-wal-trim` run (recommended next step, mirroring bug-1474's own verification precedent, before considering config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9 unblocked) -- this fix was validated at the unit level only within this investigation's scope.\n\n[UPDATE 2026-07-28, kiro-impl config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9 verification] The initial fix landed only ONE of TWO call sites duplicating this formula: ha.c repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch (fixed, via the new ha_compute_repl_target_lsn) and config_repl.c catchup_derive_target (a SEPARATE, independently-duplicated inline copy of the exact same max(committed_lsn,last_written) formula, used by ha_walack_on_ack/catchup_lane_fn -- the ACK-driven catch-up continuation path, not the heartbeat/stateReport path the first fix covered). Rerunning the live --config-upgrade-wal-trim soak after the first fix STILL FAILED (\"cluster did not reconverge to 3-of-3... preserved floor segment did not actually suffice for real incremental catch-up\") -- confirmed via log correlation that ctrl-2 (primary) was stuck forever at ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby committed_lsn=22 while catchup_lane_fn's own INFO line independently reported target=22 (the OLD, unfixed formula) even though the heartbeat path's committed_lsn logging correctly showed 21. Root-caused to catchup_derive_target (config_repl.c:2617-2627, its own comment literally said \"re-derive the replication target exactly as ha.c:2771-2776 / D6\" -- a deliberate, now-stale duplication). Fixed by making catchup_derive_target call the SAME ha_compute_repl_target_lsn pure function instead of re-deriving the formula inline, so the two paths can never disagree again. Applying just this second-call-site fix then caused a NEW symptom: controller_unit_test hung indefinitely (0.8%% CPU, blocked not spinning) inside test_convergence_verification.c's test_walack_behind_target_schedules_one_continuation. Isolated via a controlled revert-and-rerun (confirmed clean 1040/1040 with the OLD formula restored, confirming the SECOND fix -- not something else -- was the trigger). Root cause of the hang: three pre-existing tests in that file (\"behind\", \"single\", \"respawn\") hardcoded committed_lsn=4 with appended_lsn=9, deliberately exercising the OLD buggy max(4,9)=9 behavior as their expected target -- with the fix, the correct target becomes 4, so acked_lsn=5/6 (used by the later tests) no longer legitimately reads as \"still behind\", and the FIRST test's own hardcoded assertion fails. Because this test file's harness (cv_setup/cv_teardown) does not run teardown from a signal-safe/finally-equivalent path, a failed TEST_ASSERT's Unity longjmp skips cv_teardown() entirely, leaking that test's live 8-thread commit_engine still bound to the soon-to-be-memset g_cv global -- the NEXT test's cv_setup() memset-ing g_cv out from under those still-running threads is what actually produced the observed permanent hang, not a defect in the production fix itself. Fixed by updating all three tests' committed_lsn from 4 to 9 (matching appended_lsn, so target=9 under EITHER formula) -- this decouples them from the bug-1478 edge case entirely (which already has dedicated, correct pure-function coverage in test_ha_role.c), preserving each test's TRUE original intent (continuation scheduling / single-flight / respawn-after-complete mechanics) with a minimal, surgical change. Stale docstrings referencing the old \"max(committed_lsn, last_written)\" formula were also corrected to reference ha_compute_repl_target_lsn. GREEN: full controller_unit_test suite = 1040 Tests, 0 Failures, run clean 2x after all fixes (plus the isolation-revert run confirming the pre-fix baseline was also clean). Live-verified: run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade-wal-trim now reports a clean PASS (18 jobs, zero job loss, ctrl-1 reconverged 3-of-3 using the preserved floor segment for real incremental catch-up) -- config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.9 unblocked.",

"root_cause": "ROOT-CAUSED with byte-precise waldump evidence (xce_test's built-in `waldump` REPL command against the preserved deploy dir ~/tmp/xce-ha-configupgrade2), cross-correlated with both ctrl-1's and ctrl-2's logs line-by-line. During the soak's chaotic round-3 kill/restart churn, THREE leadership changes happened in rapid succession (term 3 -> 4 -> 5) within about 20 seconds (13:18:57-13:19:19): ctrl-2 briefly won term=3 and appended its own arm-own-term-gate NOOP, was killed before that entry could be widely replicated/committed, a short-lived term=4 leader (never directly observed in either surviving node's own become-leader lines, but proven to have existed by its WAL fingerprint) won next and wrote ITS OWN own-term NOOP at the SAME log index (14), and finally ctrl-1 won term=5 and became the lasting primary. `xce_test waldump` on ctrl-1's canonical (surviving, majority) WAL shows: lsn=12 CHECKPOINT term=2 (the marker-triggered checkpoint from config-upgrade-snapshot task 5, matching bug-1475/1477/1478's exact family), lsn=13 NOOP term=4 (the short-lived term-4 leader's noop), lsn=14 NOOP term=5 (ctrl-1's own winning noop). `xce_test waldump` on ctrl-2's own local pre-restart WAL shows: lsn=12 CHECKPOINT term=2 (agrees with ctrl-1), lsn=13 NOOP **term=3** (ctrl-2's OWN aborted, never-widely-replicated noop from its deposed term-3 stint) -- a genuine, CONFLICTING entry at the SAME index (13) with a DIFFERENT term (3 vs the canonical 4). This is an entirely NORMAL, expected Raft outcome of rapid leader churn (Raft's own \u00a75.3 log-matching property explicitly anticipates followers accumulating stale, uncommitted tail entries from deposed leaders) -- ctrl-2 correctly rejects ctrl-1's AppendEntries at prevLogIndex=13 with logOk's standard conflicting-term check (confirmed via ha_consume_append_entries's own trace: `prevIdx=13 n=1 -> success=0 match=0`, `RAFT[p1] term=5 event=ae_reject_logmismatch`, repeating for EVERY subsequent new entry ctrl-1 tries to send: prevIdx=14,15,16,...29, one per newly-committed lsn, all rejected, spanning 13:19:19 through 13:19:52). The BUG is what happens (or rather, does not happen) next, confirmed via two independent, compounding gaps: (1) ctrl-1 NEVER backs off and retries with a DECREMENTED prevLogIndex to find the point of log agreement (the standard Raft nextIndex-conflict-resolution protocol, which would let ctrl-2 truncate its conflicting lsn=13 tail and adopt the canonical term=4 entry) -- repl_broadcast (repl.c:295-380) is a pure fire-and-forget per-new-entry send with zero synchronous handling of the reply; it always advances prevIdx forward to (next-new-lsn - 1), never backward. (2) repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch's WAL-ACK reply-dispatch branch in ha.c (~6631-6642) handles a NACK (success=0) by checking ONLY for a higher observed term (raft_on_higher_term_observed, correctly added for the DIFFERENT bug-1421 stale-term scenario) and then explicitly `WARN(\"...success=0 \u2014 ignoring\")` -- the comment says exactly what the code does: the rejection is discarded. Critically, `repl_on_ack` (repl.c:250-271) is the ONLY code path that decrements `standby_conn_t.pending_ack_count`, and it is called ONLY from the `success` branch -- so a standby that is stuck rejecting (for ANY reason) has pending_ack_count monotonically climb by 1 on every subsequent broadcast attempt with ZERO corresponding decrements, until repl_broadcast's own MAX_PENDING_ACKS=16 defensive eviction (repl.c:325-334, from ha-config-bootstrap task 7.2, commit 3969064e, 2026-05-28 -- a full month before config-upgrade-snapshot's first commit) fires and marks the standby in_catch_up=1 at 13:19:53 (confirmed: 'repl_broadcast: standby localhost:9992 evicted (pending_ack_count=17 > 16) \u2014 triggering catch-up reconnect'). This eviction correctly EXCLUDES the standby from repl_active_standby_count (hence from ha_has_write_quorum's majority calculation) -- but nothing in the codebase actually DRIVES a catch-up stream or snapshot-install for it afterward: ctrl-2's log shows ZERO entry-carrying AppendEntries for the remaining ~60 seconds of the run (13:19:53 through the log's end at 13:20:53) -- only bare heartbeat probes (prevIdx=13,n=0) that trivially succeed since a presence-only probe at the standby's own true log_len=13 doesn't hit the term-conflict check. With ctrl-2 permanently excluded (in_catch_up=1, never un-evicted) and ctrl-3 permanently failing to reconnect (separate, unrelated ECONNREFUSED loop, likely a real chaos-kill in this soak round), ctrl-1 has connected=0 standbys forever ('HA quorum lost: connected=0 required=1', logged once at the eviction and never restored) -- every subsequent job submission either times out waiting for write-quorum (0/3 acked, matching the force-elect step's failure verbatim) or gets an immediate -XCE_ERR_NOT_READY (-10013) fast-reject via ha_dispatch_gate's quorum check. This is a GENUINE, SERIOUS, and apparently PERMANENT availability defect: ANY standby whose log happens to diverge by even ONE entry at a single index during leader-election churn (an entirely normal, expected Raft occurrence, not itself a bug) can become irrecoverably stuck and permanently excluded from quorum, with no self-healing path -- in a 3-node cluster this is one bad-luck election sequence away from TOTAL, PERMANENT write-quorum loss if it hits 2 of 3 standbys. Same family as bug-1466 (open, 'WAL_CHECKPOINT breaks LSN/term co-tracking', NOT fixed at its root) and its now-3 fixed siblings (bug-1475, bug-1477, bug-1478) -- this is the family's 5th distinct member, but the trigger here (an ordinary post-election term-conflicted log tail, NOT specifically a checkpoint-boundary term-derivation issue) is narrower than bug-1466's checkpoint-specific framing and points instead at a genuinely MISSING piece of core Raft log-repair protocol (conflict-driven nextIndex backoff + NACK-triggered catch-up), which appears to have never been implemented for this replication path at all -- not a regression, a gap. git blame confirms both implicated mechanisms (repl_broadcast's pending_ack_count eviction, commit 3969064e, 2026-05-28; the NACK-handling 'ignoring' branch in repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch, present since at least bug-1421's fix, itself predating config-upgrade-snapshot) are pre-existing, core HA replication code untouched by any config-upgrade-snapshot task -- config-upgrade-snapshot's task 5 (marker-triggered per-member local checkpoint) merely adds one more entry into the WAL stream around the point where this pre-existing gap gets exercised; it does not create the gap itself.",
"fix": "FIXED AND VERIFIED LIVE (2026-07-29, see UPDATE 2 below for the final closing fix) -- two compounding gaps were closed after the initial investigation: (1) the standby's own reject path sent no NACK reply at all (ha_send_wal_ack_reply hardcoded success=1 unconditionally), fixed via ha_send_wal_ack_reply_ex with success=0 on reject; (2) even with NACKs flowing, ha_stream_wal_to_standby's catch-up range was hard-capped at committed_lsn, which could never advance in this exact scenario (self-referential deadlock) -- fixed via ha_compute_repl_stream_ceiling_lsn widening the ceiling to the leader's own log tail, matching raft.tla's real AppendEntries semantics. Verified via three successive live run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade re-runs tracking each iteration (v1/v2 still failed, v3 with both fixes together PASSED end-to-end: 3/3 jobs acked on both force-elect rounds, zero materialized-state or config divergence). 1053/1053 controller_unit_test PASS. Full investigation history preserved below for context (including the earlier partial-fix iterations and root-causing).\n\n[Original investigation, 2026-07-28]\nNOT FIXED -- explicitly out of scope for a single safe pass, per this investigation's own conclusion (matches kiro-debug's guidance against forcing a fix when the true defect requires a protocol design decision, not a narrow patch). At least TWO separate, non-trivial design questions need to be resolved by whoever owns ha.c/repl.c's replication-catch-up protocol before a fix can be written safely: (a) should an ae_reject_logmismatch NACK immediately trigger repl_start_catchup (moving the standby to catch-up mode on the FIRST conflict, rather than silently accumulating up to 16 failed sends first)? This is the more targeted, root-cause-adjacent fix. (b) independently, once a standby IS marked in_catch_up (whether via this path or the existing MAX_PENDING_ACKS eviction), what mechanism is SUPPOSED to actually drive its catch-up (stream from join_applied_lsn, or snapshot-install if too far behind) and clear in_catch_up via repl_complete_catchup? Evidence here shows NOTHING does, for at least this eviction path -- config_repl.c's ACK-driven catchup_lane_fn/ha_walack_on_ack continuation (the only other repl_complete_catchup call site found) is itself ACK-driven, so it can never engage for a standby that never sends a genuine ACK in the first place; whether IT (or a periodic sweep independent of ACKs) is supposed to notice an in_catch_up standby and proactively start streaming it needs its own trace by the owning team. A correct fix likely needs both: NACK-triggered catch-up entry (closing gap (a)) AND a proactive (not purely ACK-reactive) catch-up driver that streams from join_applied_lsn or falls back to snapshot-install for any in_catch_up standby (closing gap (b)) -- implementing only one without the other would leave the defect only partially closed. Recommend routing to whoever owns ha.c/repl.c's HA replication/catch-up protocol (the same 'needs-owner' bucket as bug-1474's still-open fix angle (a) and bug-1472-remainder) for a proper design pass, THEN a TDD fix + live re-verification via `run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade` on a fresh deploy dir. Preserved evidence: ~/tmp/xce-ha-configupgrade2 (do not delete) -- `xce_test waldump <data_dir>` (via the xce_test REPL: `printf 'waldump <path>\\nquit\\n' | ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0 timeout 60 <xce.build>/controller/xce_test`) reproduces the byte-precise lsn=13 term-3-vs-term-4 conflict evidence directly from the preserved WAL segments at any time.\n\nUPDATE (2026-07-29, this session): a fix WAS committed (uncommitted in the 'config' worktree at investigation time) implementing exactly gap (a) from this entry's own recommendation -- ha_raft_on_repl_nack() (ha.c/ha.h) routes a WAL-ACK-reply NACK into the raft library's nextIndex backoff and returns a corrected resume LSN; repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch's NACK branch calls it and immediately repl_start_catchup() with the corrected LSN; repl_get_catchup_join_lsn() (repl.c/repl.h) lets the heartbeat-driven ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby use the corrected position; repl_complete_catchup() now also resets pending_ack_count. 1048/1048 controller_unit_test PASS. HOWEVER: a fresh live-soak re-verification (run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade, deploy preserved at ~/tmp/xce_ha_bug1479_verify, NOT deleted) reproduced the ORIGINAL symptom verbatim -- force-elect ctrl-2 round: 5/5 submit_jobs attempts on {ctrl-1,ctrl-2} got 0/3 acked, hard FAIL. Root-caused: the fix's NACK-routing branch in repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch (ha.c ~6680-6720) is CORRECT but UNREACHABLE in production, because the standby's OWN reject path never sends a NACK (or any reply) in the first place. ha_apply_wal_catchup_entry has three reject paths (ha.c ~3230-3232 via ha_apply_term_entry_via_library for the term-carrying single/batch case -- the one actually hit live; ~3320-3321 for a batch sub-entry apply failure; ~3373-3374 for the legacy single-entry path) that all explicitly do 'no ACK' on a logOk reject/forward-gap. ha_send_wal_ack_reply (ha.c:3084-3106) is the ONLY function anywhere in the controller that ever constructs a WalAckReply, and it hardcodes success=1 unconditionally -- there is NO production code path that ever sends success=0. Live evidence: ctrl-2's own log shows repeating RAFT[p1] event=ae_reject_logmismatch / ha_consume_append_entries success=0 match=0 at growing prevIdx (40,41,...54) while stuck at match=20 forever; ctrl-1's log has ZERO 'WAL NACK from standby' or ha_raft_on_repl_nack lines the entire time -- the primary never learns of the rejection at all, so it never backs off nextIndex or re-arms catch-up, and committed_lsn stays frozen (the only alive standby can never re-sync, and the heartbeat-driven catch-up's own target is gated on the same frozen committed_lsn). STILL NOT FULLY FIXED. New follow-up spec .kiro/specs/raft-adapter-conformance/ created to (1) fix this concrete missing-NACK-reply defect at the three reject sites and (2) perform a broader raft.tla action-by-action conformance pass over the controller's Raft adapter (ha.c/repl.c/config_repl.c) -- distinct from raft-sim-conformance, which is scoped to src/lib/raft/raft_sim.c (library-only, in-process) and explicitly does not cover this adapter code.\n\nUPDATE 2 (2026-07-29, this session): fully FIXED and verified live end-to-end. Two more compounding gaps found and closed after the NACK-send fix (UPDATE 1) landed:\n(1) ha_apply_term_entry_via_library's logOk-reject path (ha.c, the single live-reachable reject site) sent NO reply at all on rejection -- ha_send_wal_ack_reply hardcoded success=1 unconditionally, so the primary-side ha_raft_on_repl_nack (correct since UPDATE 1) was unreachable dead code. Fixed by adding ha_send_wal_ack_reply_ex(ha, ep, c, lsn, success) and calling it with success=0 on reject, plus a new ha_wal_ack_send_hook (ha.h, XCE_TESTING) so a unit test can observe the NACK without a live endpoint (test_bug1479_ae_reject_sends_nack_not_silence, test_config_repl.c). Confirmed live in a 2nd soak run: ctrl-1's log showed real 'WAL NACK from standby ... success=0 -- marking catch-up' lines for the first time.\n(2) Even with (1) working, that 2nd soak run STILL failed at the identical force-elect ctrl-2 point: ha_stream_wal_to_standby's catch-up range was hard-bounded at committed_lsn, and committed_lsn can never advance in this exact scenario because advancing it requires an ACK from the very standby that's stuck catching up (2-of-3 alive, this standby is the only path to a new majority) -- a self-referential deadlock. Fixed by adding a new pure function ha_compute_repl_stream_ceiling_lsn(committed_lsn, last_written, checkpoint_lsn) (ha.c/ha.h), wired into ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby to widen the STREAM_WAL ceiling (and the ha_evaluate_repl_action convergence check that gates it) to the leader's own log tail instead of just committed_lsn -- matching raft.tla's real AppendEntries semantics (leaderCommit is advisory to the follower, never a cap on what gets sent) -- while still guarding against bug-1478's old trap (never widening to a trailing local-only checkpoint's own unstreamable LSN slot). 4 new pure-function tests in test_ha_role.c (test_compute_repl_stream_ceiling_lsn_*), RED-confirmed against a stubbed committed_lsn-only version before the real fix was restored.\nFull verification: 1053/1053 controller_unit_test PASS twice clean. THREE successive live run-ha-soak.sh --config-upgrade re-runs tracked each fix: v1 (NACK-send only) still FAILED at force-elect ctrl-2 (0/3 acked); v2 confirmed NACKs now reaching the primary but still FAILED (frozen committed_lsn=14, ha_stream_wal_to_standby target never advanced); v3 (both fixes together) PASSED end-to-end: all 3 force-elect rounds succeeded (ctrl-2: 3/3 jobs acked, term=6; ctrl-3: 3/3 jobs acked, term=7), final verdict 'PASS (config-upgrade): 12 jobs, zero materialized-state divergence, zero configuration divergence, host admin-status confirmed across all members'. Evidence preserved at ~/tmp/xce_ha_bug1479_verify, ~/tmp/xce_ha_bug1479_verify_v2, ~/tmp/xce_ha_bug1479_verify_v3 (all not deleted). config-upgrade-snapshot task 8.6 unblocked. The raft-adapter-conformance spec created mid-investigation had its concrete seed defect (missing NACK reply) fixed here; the broader raft.tla action-by-action conformance audit it also scopes remains valid, separate future work.",

True root cause not isolated -- prime suspects are a genuine timing-sensitive controller-side crash/race in the CTRL_STANDBY->CTRL_PRIMARY raft promotion path (raft_cb_become_leader / repl registration) that pytest's process tree somehow makes far more likely to trigger, or a process-group/session/signal-mask difference inherited by subprocess.Popen children when the parent is pytest vs a bare python3 script.",

Ran the live test 40 times total in this environment: 25 baseline (idle sandbox, load avg ~2/22 cores) + 15 more with a concurrent `xce-build.sh controller debug` compile racing for CPU (separate build.dbg dir, so it could not clobber the xce.build controller binary the test depends on -- unlike bug-1486's same-dir clobber shape). Result: 40/40 PASSED, 0/120 captured stderr logs (3 nodes x 40 runs) non-empty -- no crash, no ASAN report, in any run. Could NOT reproduce the ~24/25 failure rate from the original investigation despite matching the documented repro shape exactly (same binaries, same fixture code, same pytest invocation).\n\nNOT marking fixed -- absence of reproduction here is not proof of absence of the underlying bug, and this session's single concurrent compile is a much lighter contention scenario than the real multi-session sandbox reality bug-1486 documents (several concurrent AGENT SESSIONS, potentially each running their own live 3-node cluster). Leading hypothesis (unconfirmed): the original ~24/25 failure rate was itself a symptom of resource contention from OTHER concurrent sessions on the shared sandbox during that investigation (CPU starvation delaying the primary's post-election warmup past _POST_ELECTION_SETTLE_S, or an OOM-adjacent condition killing the freshly-forked primary outright) rather than a bug in the promotion path reachable in isolation -- consistent with the original investigation's own \"pytest's process tree somehow makes far more likely\" framing, since pytest's subprocess tree carries more memory/fd overhead than the bare python3 scripts that never reproduced it there either.\n\nDowngraded to low-priority/environment-flake, left OPEN. The stderr-capture infrastructure is now permanently in place (not reverted) so the next real live failure -- in pytest, in a genuinely contended multi-session sandbox, or in CI -- captures an actual ASAN report or signal instead of DEVNULL silence, which is what would actually close this out.",

Per the documented Raft Figure-8 safety mechanism (ha_arm_own_term_gate, ha.c:4997-5046: \"the universal commit barrier still requires per-entry majority of a new-term entry\"), a newly-elected primary cannot fold a PRIOR-term entry into its own committed_lsn watermark merely because it holds it durably -- it must first get a fresh majority ack, under its OWN term, for its own-term WAL_NOOP (armed at promotion). ctrl-2s committed_lsn stayed at 100 (excluding lsn 101-103) until ctrl-3s WAL catch-up stream let it ack the term-27 noop at lsn=104, at 04:47:58.702 -- 6.232s after promotion (commit_advance_locked: \"committed_lsn 100 -> 104\"). expect-job (joblist query) reads c->jobmgr, which the apply pump only populates for entries that have reached this committed_lsn watermark -- so the job was genuinely invisible, by design, for that 6.232s window. run-ha-soak.shs verify_classify() (chaotic mode) runs its expect-job check immediately once wait_for_new_primary detects the new primary is SERVING at a higher term -- unlike verify_no_loss (sequential mode; already carries a 3-attempt/2s-settle retry from bug-1422 for a related but distinct client-retry-storm race) and unlike wait_for_full_convergence (which chaotic mode intentionally skips between kills, by design, to land kills inside overlap windows) -- so its single, instantaneous query landed inside the 6.232s barrier window and counted a false LOSS. Comparison: round 24s election (ctrl-1, term=26) closed the identical barrier window in only 167ms because the other voting peer was not mid-catch-up at that moment -- the window duration is directly proportional to how far behind the second required peer is, which chaotic modes overlapping-restart design can occasionally push to several seconds.",
"fix": "Added a bounded retry (5 attempts, 2s settle between) around the expect-job/verdict-classify check in verify_classify() (.claude/skills/xce-test-ha/run-ha-soak.sh) -- mirrors verify_no_loss/bug-1422s \"retry the whole check\" precedent, only retrying on a LOSS classification (BUG854/OK still resolve on the first attempt, matching prior semantics). ~8s of total settle margin comfortably covers the measured 6.232s worst-case gap while staying bounded -- a job still missing after 5 attempts still counts as a genuine LOSS, so real committed-job loss detection is unweakened.

But encode_SnapshotData_ptr()'s local `struct SnapshotData d;` is never zero-initialized before the (partially no-op) encode_SnapshotData() populates it, so the skipped Data field's capn_ptr is left as UNINITIALIZED STACK GARBAGE. write_SnapshotData() then unconditionally capn_setp()'s that garbage onto the wire. This is genuine UB: whether it crashes depends entirely on what garbage bytes land in that stack slot at each call site -- ReplayHeader.configHash has the identical gap but never crashed (lucky garbage); SnapshotData.internalState's stack layout in this one test's call chain was unlucky.

Known/suspected other Data fields with the same latent gap: ReplayHeader.configHash (dormant so far, no real consumer), CtrlHelloRequest.key, and possibly others not yet audited.",
"fix": "FIXED 2026-08-07. Investigated production exposure first: xce_wal_batch_encode_raw()/wal_entry_to_wire() (request.c) never call the generic encode_WalCatchupEntry() at all -- they memset() their own struct and call write_WalCatchupEntry() directly with every field hand-set, deliberately leaving payload unset (bug-847's own comment). So this bug was 100% test-only exposure, zero production risk, confirmed by grepping every caller of encode_WalCatchupEntry_ptr/decode_WalCatchupEntry (only test_e2e_capnp.c uses the generic path). Fix: same as bug-1504 -- changed WalCatchupEntry.payload (@2) and batchPayloads (@10) from Data to List(UInt8) in controller.capnp, with batchPayloadsLen (@11, new) as batchPayloads' maplistcount companion (payload reuses the existing wirePayloadLen @9). Verified batchPayloads' own top-level-single-blob shape means this does not reintroduce bug-847's per-element cross-segment far-pointer loss (that issue is inherent to PER-ELEMENT data regardless of Data vs List(UInt8) spelling -- payload, the per-element field, was already legacy/unpopulated in production before this fix and stays that way; batchPayloads is single top-level, never subject to that issue either way). Updated typemap.h's wal_catchup_entry_t field types (xce_data_t* -> uint8_t*, new batch_payloads_wire_len). Fixed request.c's extract_data_bytes() to accept a raw capn_ptr instead of capn_data (it already only ever used .p internally) so all 4 call sites (WalCatchupEntry.payload/batchPayloads, SnapshotTransfer.payload, per-sub-entry we.payload) work regardless of which Data-shaped wrapper type the accessor returns. Strengthened test_wal_catchup_append_term_fields_round_trip (test_e2e_capnp.c) with real payload/batchPayloads content assertions (previously never exercised at all, since the test's src.payload/batch_payloads were left NULL). Verified: controller_unit_test no longer crashes (3/3 controller suite), scheduler suite unaffected (37/37, unrelated schema area).",

"file": ".kiro/specs/component-failover-adoption/requirements.md, design.md, tasks.md, research.md",
"root_cause": "(1) Req 3 AC2's '~6-job grace window' was stated as 'at least 6' (a floor) when 6 is actually the best-case ceiling; the real guaranteed floor is 1-2 depending on decisions-cbuf occupancy at the moment of stall -- direction of the bound was backwards. (2) Citation scheduler.c:1253 for sched_publish_pend_reason was off by 2 (actual line 1251). (3) Cross-cutting: the shared 'check and clear needs_rejoin, then call xcecli_join' pattern (worker/scheduler/apiserver) cleared the flag unconditionally rather than only on xcecli_join's own success -- since xcecli_join is itself XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL-wrapped and can hit its own retry-budget exhaustion, this could leave a component transport-connected but permanently un-joined with nothing left to retry (no requirement/design text previously covered this). (4) The Req 7 scheduler decision-publish retry loop only checked core.stop in the while-condition (after each attempt), so multiple decisions queued behind a stuck one would each burn a full ~100s budget cycle discovering shutdown was requested, compounding shutdown latency to minutes instead of the claimed ~1-2 min bound. (5) While fixing (3) for apiserver's heartbeat-idle-path, the first draft gated the retry on ApiserverBackendHealth.IsDegraded() -- but that state has its own independent TTL-based auto-clear for circuit-breaker purposes; if the TTL expired before an actual rejoin succeeded, the retry would silently stop, reintroducing the exact starvation bug (3) was fixing. Two unrelated state machines (rejoin-tracking vs request-path circuit-breaker) had been conflated onto one flag.",
"fix": "(1) Reworded Req 3 AC2 and all design.md/research.md/tasks.md echoes to state the guarantee qualitatively (bounded, occupancy-dependent, resumes with zero loss per Req 7) instead of a wrong fixed number. (2) Fixed the line citation. (3) Added Requirement 2 AC5 (rejoin retry-on-failure, applies to all three components) and updated the shared 'Rejoin callback constraint' section plus all three component sections in design.md and their tasks.md task bullets to clear the flag only on xcecli_join success. (4) Changed the Req 7 retry loop from do/while to while (check core.stop before each attempt, not only after) so only the actively in-flight decision can cost a full budget cycle; queued decisions behind it skip immediately once stop is set. (5) Introduced a dedicated needs_rejoin flag for apiserver's heartbeat path (set on transition, cleared only on join success) fully decoupled from ApiserverBackendHealth's TTL-governed degraded state; updated the sequence diagram, prose, and tasks.md task 4.4 accordingly, plus an explicit note in ApiserverBackendHealth's section warning against this conflation.

"root_cause": "UNRESOLVED / not root-caused. xcecd's root check (main.c:288 geteuid()!=0) was bypassed for sandbox testing via `unshare -r` (user-namespace fake root, euid=0 but not real root). Startup then immediately hit an ASAN double-pthread_join abort during/after the HA-cluster-config init log line (main.c:435), before any further logging. Never reproduced under real root -- unknown whether this is a genuine double-join bug in xcecd's daemonize/thread-spawn path (e.g. duplicate cleanup on an early-init error branch) or an artifact of unshare's user-namespace semantics (e.g. a syscall xcecd's threading depends on behaving differently under CLONE_NEWUSER, such as thread creation ordering or signal delivery). Blocked further component-failover-adoption Task 3.3 Item-3 E2E validation from getting a live worker registered, which in turn meant no real job ever produced a scheduler decision (picker/allocator never had a matching candidate to dispatch to or explicitly PEND against), so the scheduler's decision-publish/rejoin code path (task 3.2) could not be exercised via a fully live job in this sandbox.",
"fix": "Not fixed -- out of scope for Task 3.3 (which validates scheduler HA reconnect, not worker daemon startup). Worked around by validating scheduler join/failover/reconnect behavior via direct socket-state inspection (ss/proc fd) instead of a full live job pipeline; the decision-publish retry+rejoin logic itself already has white-box unit coverage from task 3.2 (test_scheduler_decision_publish_retry.c) and task 3.3 item 2 (test_scheduler_backpressure.c). If a future session needs a live worker in this sandbox, retry under real root (not unshare -r) first to isolate whether this is userns-specific. UPDATE (2026-08-20, build-time-versioning task 3.3 review): independently reproduced under REAL sudo root (not unshare -r) -- same signature, same timing (fires during later thread-join startup work, strictly AFTER the HA-cluster-config INFO log line, both with and without --peers). This refines/answers the prior 'never reproduced under real root' open question: it is NOT a userns/unshare-specific artifact -- the abort reproduces identically under genuine root. Still not root-caused/fixed; still does not block this session's version-display changes (main.c's new --version/log-line code runs entirely before the point where this abort fires).",

"root_cause": "tryConnect() allocated cAddr/cFrom/cKey via C.CString(), built a Go-function-local xce_client_config_t pointing at them, called xce_backend_init() once, then deferred C.free() on all three strings immediately after that single call returned. xcecli_ctx_init() (src/lib/client.c) stores ctx->conf = cfg as a RAW pointer (never copies the struct), and client_failover.c dereferences ctx->conf->masters[cur_master] on EVERY subsequent failover rotation attempt (client_failover.c:120,386), not just the initial connect -- so any reconnect/rotation after the first tryConnect() call returned read freed memory. A second, independent hazard: cConfig itself was a Go-local var; ctx->conf retained a raw pointer to it invisible to Go GC once tryConnect() returned. (Note: from/key were NOT actually part of this UAF -- xce_ctx_init() strdup()s them immediately at ctx-init time, so freeing cFrom/cKey was safe in isolation; only the masters[] host string and the client_config_t struct address itself were genuinely unsafe.)",

Host strings now live in gClusterCfg.candidates[i].hostname (fixed char[256] arrays, no CString/free at all -- xce_cluster_config_to_client_config() aliases pointers directly into this storage). from/key point at gClusterCfg.identity[0]/key[0] (also fixed arrays) rather than separate CStrings.

Diagnostic control issued only AFTER the observation window (13:39:52Z, ~6.5 min post-kill): POST /xce/v1/jobs/create succeeded with a real controller-assigned job ID (73930919093731328) and server-generated success message -- proving the transport had already reached the NEW primary (ctrl-2) -- yet this write call ALSO produced zero rejoin log lines, full apiserver_out.log grep for the same 4 terms still empty after it. This is strictly stronger evidence than task 5.1's: it directly demonstrates the write path's own XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL/xcecli_invoke_rejoin also did not fire even when explicitly exercised, consistent with the transport having already been silently repaired by an earlier heartbeat tick's XCECLI_FF_CALL before the write call ever needed to retry -- exactly bug-1548's leading hypothesis, not merely 'consistent with' it as task 5.1 could only say. Corroborating bug-1549 downstream symptom also reproduced: GET /xce/v1/jobs immediately after the successful submit returned {\"count\":0,\"rows\":[]} -- the just-submitted job never reached apiserver's local store, consistent with apiserver never having actually re-issued xcecli_join(HostRole_apiserver) against ctrl-2. ctrl-2.log has no apiserver-join lines either direction (join.c logs only rejections, per task 5.1's prior finding -- reconfirmed, not independently informative here). Task 5.2's own observable-completion criterion ('the scenario passes without requiring any client-triggered write request during the outage window' -- i.e. apiserver rejoins and resumes push notifications via the heartbeat-triggered path alone) was NOT met: no rejoin evidence appeared at any point in the heartbeat-only window. Evidence preserved at /home/claude/tmp/xce-e2e-task52/ (apiserver/logs/apiserver_out.log, logs/ctrl-{1,2,3}.log, logon_response.json, diagnostic_job_submit_response.json, diagnostic_joblist_response.json, KILL_TIMESTAMP_UTC.txt, DIAGNOSTIC_CONTROL_START_UTC.txt, DIAGNOSTIC_CONTROL_SUBMIT_UTC.txt).",
"file": "src/frontend/apiserver/backend/reconnect.go, heartbeat.go, clib.go (component-failover-adoption task 4.3/4.4's checkAndPerformRejoin/needsRejoin mechanism)",
"root_cause": "NOT root-caused (out of task 5.1's E2E-validation boundary to fix). Leading hypothesis from live log analysis: XCECLI_FF_CALL (the fire-and-forget macro backing xcecli_heartbeat) can silently self-heal the TRANSPORT (rotate to a live candidate) entirely within a single heartbeat tick without that tick ever returning a failure to Go -- so heartbeat.go's prevFailed-edge detection (onFailureToSuccess) never observes a failure->success transition and never sets needsRejoin. Separately, none of the 3 post-kill write calls (which DO route through XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL, which per design.md should invoke the rejoin callback mid-call on a genuine failover) show any evidence of having hit a failed connection either -- consistent with the connection having already been silently fixed by a prior heartbeat tick before any write call needed to retry, so XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL's own rejoin-invoking path is also never exercised. Net effect: needsRejoin is never set by any path, so checkAndPerformRejoin() stays a permanent silent no-op and apiserver's push-registration (join) with the new primary is never renewed. Could not independently confirm via controller-side logs either way -- discovered during this same investigation that the controller's join.c only logs REJECTED/failed joins (WARN/ERROR), never a successful one at any verbosity, so controller logs are not usable evidence for this question in either direction. REVIEW UPDATE (task 5.1 review, 2026-08-12): confirmed via source read that XCECLI_FF_CALL (client_internal.h:290-302) never calls xcecli_invoke_rejoin under any circumstance -- this half of the hypothesis is not speculative, it's structurally true by construction. Elevated confidence this is a REPRODUCIBLE gap, not scenario-specific timing luck: since real elections in this codebase's own logs complete in single-digit seconds while the default heartbeat interval is 30s, a single heartbeat tick landing after the election has already completed will both discover the dead connection AND repair it within that same XCECLI_FF_CALL invocation -- the failure never surfaces to Go's heartbeat.go loop as a separate tick, so the cross-tick prevFailed-edge detection (onFailureToSuccess) structurally cannot observe it. This is likely to recur on MOST real single-election failovers, not just this run's specific timing -- materially risks Req 2 AC4 (component-failover-adoption requirements.md) in production. Recommend escalating past ordinary buglog cadence to a dedicated follow-up spec/task, given it affects the already-approved task 4.3/4.4 mechanism.",
"fix": "FIXED (component-failover-adoption tasks.md Phase 6, task 6.1). Root cause confirmed as hypothesized: XCECLI_FF_CALL (client_internal.h:290-302) can rotate+reconnect the transport entirely inside a single call, holding ac->failover.lock, and still return success -- so a failure->success transition on the caller's own return code is not a reliable 'a reconnect happened' signal whenever an election (single-digit seconds) completes faster than the 30s default heartbeat interval, which is the common case. Fix: added a monotonic `_Atomic uint64_t reconnect_gen` field to `endpoint_t` (src/include/netio.h:137), incremented unconditionally on the success path of `xce_ctx_reconnect()` (src/lib/xcectx.c:402) -- confirmed via repo-wide grep as the sole reconnect call-site reachable from `xce_failover_rotate()`, covering both the write-path retry loop and the heartbeat fire-and-forget path. apiserver's heartbeat.go `runHeartbeat()` now compares this generation on every tick (via the existing `xcecli_get_my_endpoint()` accessor, atomic-loaded through clib.go) instead of waiting for a failure->success transition, replacing the old detector entirely. Regression test `TestRunHeartbeat_IdlePeriodRecovery_GenChangeAloneSetsNeedsRejoinEvenWhenAllTicksSucceed` (heartbeat_rejoin_test.go) proves the fix's exact shape. Closed via live E2E re-run of task 5.2's scenario: rejoin fired 22s after primary kill (12s post-election) with zero write traffic for the preceding 5.5 minutes.",

Reproduced for 2 jobs (one submitted at the moment of a primary kill, one submitted >1 minute after a clean new-primary failover) -- so this is NOT specific to the failover window, appears to be a general gap.

"root_cause": "NOT root-caused (out of task 5.1's boundary). apiserver_job_new_fun is wired as a HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_NEW hook meant to fire apiserver_push_joblist()/apiserver_push_jobarray() after a job commits (apply_committed_entry()); controller logs show zero evidence either way since apiserver.c has no INFO-level success logging on this path (only a WARN on push failure, `push job list to api server %s has problem, rc %d`, which also never appeared). Could be: the hook isn't actually registered/invoked in this build, or apiserver's join isn't registered in c->apiservers[] the push fan-out iterates, or something queue/resreq-specific. Discovered opportunistically while probing bug-1548; not independently isolated from bug-1548 (both could share a root cause -- c->apiservers[] fan-out list membership -- or be unrelated). REVIEW UPDATE (task 5.1 review, 2026-08-12): found the likely direct causal chain, narrowing this from 'could share a root cause or be unrelated' to 'very likely a downstream symptom of bug-1548'. src/controller/apiserver.c's on_apiserver_join() unconditionally calls xce_apiserver_push_jobs(c, ep) (bulk job resync) alongside xce_apiserver_push_workers(c, ep), but ONLY fires when a fresh join is actually processed by the controller. c->apiservers[] (the fan-out list push hooks iterate) is per-process, in-memory-only state -- no WAL/config replication (confirmed zero references outside apiserver.c) -- so a NEW primary starts with an empty registration table until each apiserver instance re-joins against it. If bug-1548 means apiserver's rejoin was never re-issued against the new primary, ctrl-2 never ran on_apiserver_join for it, so neither the bulk resync nor any incremental job push could ever reach apiserver -- cleanly explaining both job1 and job2 being empty. Recommend a fix attempt for bug-1548 be verified against this job-push symptom directly (if fixing the rejoin gap makes GET /xce/v1/jobs start populating correctly, that's confirmation bug-1549 was never an independent issue). TASK 5.2 RE-REPRODUCTION (2026-08-12T13:39:52Z): reproduced a third time in an isolated, apiserver-only (no worker/scheduler) idle-period E2E run -- a job submitted well after a clean failover (jobid 73930919093731328, controller-confirmed via the accepted response) still never appeared in GET /xce/v1/jobs. This occurred in the SAME run where bug-1548's rejoin gap was also independently reconfirmed with a clean negative control, strengthening (not just repeating) the downstream-symptom-of-bug-1548 hypothesis: if apiserver never re-joined the new primary at the application level, c->apiservers[] on ctrl-2 never gained an entry for it, so no push (bulk or incremental) could ever reach it -- independent of whether the underlying job-push wiring itself is otherwise correct.",
"fix": "FIXED as a downstream symptom of bug-1548 -- confirmed, not just hypothesized. Once apiserver's heartbeat-triggered rejoin (bug-1548's fix) correctly re-issues xcecli_join(HostRole_apiserver) against the new primary, the controller's on_apiserver_join() bulk job resync (xce_apiserver_push_jobs) fires as designed and populates apiserver's local job store.

Re-observed again 2026-08-17 during resource-value-verification task 2.1 (resupdate fallback + -t flag wiring, GREEN phase): identical 2 tests, identical Expected/Was values, identical fdatasync errno=5 burst, in the same full `/xce-build controller` run that also confirmed resval_typeresolve_unit_test's own Unity summary at 4 Tests 0 Failures (task 2.1's GREEN evidence). Task 2.1's diff was scoped to testsuite/resval_typeresolve.{c,h} and testsuite/test.c only (confirmed via git diff --stat) -- test_config_repl.c/config_repl.c untouched, per this bug's own do-not-chase guidance in tasks.md's Implementation Notes.\n\nRe-observed a 5th time 2026-08-18 during a full `nix develop ./src --command bash src/tools/xce-build.sh all asan build-asan --incremental` verification run on the scheduler-framework branch (post bug-1584/1585 scheduler fixes). Identical signature: same 2 tests, same Expected/Was values (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions Expected 2 Was 3; test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config Expected 0 Was large-garbage-uint64), same accompanying persist_flush/flusher fdatasync errno=5 burst. This run recompiled ZERO C source files (ninja reported \"no work to do\" for all C targets -- only the xceadmin custom target/wheel regenerated), so the failure cannot be attributed to any change in this session -- strongest evidence yet that this is purely an environment (overlayfs fdatasync) artifact, not a code regression. Scheduler suite's own single failure in the same run (test_recordstart_symlink_escape_replies_error, bug-1560) is separate and expected. Re-observed a 6th time 2026-08-19 during a controller ASAN build/test run verifying the StartTime/FinishTime persist.c fix (raft-apply-decoupling job-fact timestamp stamping, unrelated files persist.c/test_apply_committed_entry.c) -- identical 2 tests, identical Expected/Was values, identical fdatasync errno=5 burst. Session diff confirmed scoped to persist.c/test_apply_committed_entry.c only -- further corroborates environment-artifact theory.\n\nRe-observed a 7th time 2026-08-21 verifying a pure output-formatting edit to src/controller/testsuite/test.c (raw %lu jobid printf sites replaced with fmt_jobid()+%s, 10 call sites, zero logic change) via `xce-build.sh controller asan --incremental` on the scheduler-framework branch. Identical signature: same 2 tests (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions Expected 2 Was 3; test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config Expected 0 Was large-garbage-uint64), same accompanying persist_flush/flusher fdatasync errno=5 burst. Session diff confirmed scoped to test.c only (git diff --stat) -- test_config_repl.c/config_repl.c untouched. controller/xce_test (the binary test.c itself compiles into) built and linked cleanly with zero warnings/errors tied to the fmt_jobid change; only controller_unit_test (a separate binary, testsuite_test_config_repl.c.o) carries these 2 pre-existing failures. Further corroborates environment-artifact theory over regression.\n\nRe-observed an 8th time 2026-08-23 during scheduler-dispatch-commit task 3.3's full controller ASAN build/test verification run (job.c dispatch-failure retry restructuring + new test_dispatch_fail_retry.c). Identical signature: same 2 tests (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions Expected 2 Was 3; test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config Expected 0 Was large-garbage-uint64), same accompanying persist_flush/flusher fdatasync errno=5 burst. Session diff confirmed scoped to job.c and testsuite/ files only (git diff --stat) -- test_config_repl.c/config_repl.c untouched. Further corroborates environment-artifact theory over regression.\n\nRe-observed a 9th time 2026-08-23 during scheduler-dispatch-commit task 4.1's full controller ASAN build/test verification run (job.c handle_jobdispatch() double-notify removal + new test_jobdispatch_no_double_notify.c). Identical signature: same 2 tests (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions Expected 2 Was 3; test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config Expected 0 Was large-garbage-uint64), same accompanying persist_flush/flusher fdatasync errno=5 burst. Session diff confirmed scoped to job.c (handle_jobdispatch() loop body only) and new/edited testsuite files -- test_config_repl.c/config_repl.c untouched. Further corroborates environment-artifact theory over regression.\n\nRe-observed a 10th time 2026-08-23 during the scheduler-dispatch-commit feature's final GO/NO-GO release-gate verification run (`xce-build.sh controller asan build-asan --incremental`, tree fully committed, zero uncommitted diff in src/controller/job.c, handler.c, or testsuite/). Identical signature: same 2 tests (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions Expected 2 Was 3; test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config Expected 0 Was large-garbage-uint64), same accompanying persist_flush/flusher fdatasync errno=5 burst. A dedicated scoped rerun of controller_unit_test with -t filters covering only the scheduler-dispatch-commit feature's own groups (test_dispatch_commit, test_dispatch_fail_terminal, test_dispatch_fail_retry, test_jobdispatch_no_double_notify, test_commit_barrier_reply, test_wal_job_dispatch_fact, test_job_dispatch, test_job_dispatch_fail_count) came back 62 Tests 0 Failures 0 Ignored, exit 0 -- confirms these 2 pre-existing failures are fully isolated to test_config_repl.c and do not touch this feature's own test surface.\n\n[UPDATE 2026-08-26, xce-test-rc-file task 1.1] Re-observed again, identical signature (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions Expected 2 Was 3, test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config Expected 0 Was <garbage uint64>, same fdatasync errno=5 burst) in both the meson-driven controller test run and a standalone direct controller_unit_test invocation, in a session whose only diff was adding a new, unrelated rcfile.c/rcfile.h/test_rcfile.c module (xce-test-rc-file spec task 1.1) plus meson.build/controller_test.c wiring -- config_repl.c/test_config_repl.c untouched by this session's own diff (though config_repl.c already carried unrelated pre-existing uncommitted changes from prior work at session start). Further corroborates: not caused by this task.",

Downstream symptom: worker gets 'SSL_do_handshake: Broken pipe' in a loop and ctrl-2/ctrl-3 log repeated 'incorrect worker idx -1' ERRORs from handle_endpoint_error (harmless noise -- join.c's handle_join_ stamps priv->role=HostRole_worker before the ha_no_primary_known guard can reject the join, so u.idx is still -1 when the rejected connection is torn down).",
"file": "src/controller/ha.c (ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup, 5.10b debounce branch)",
"root_cause": "Live-reproduced locally (build.dbg xce_controller, fresh 3-node deploy via deploy-ha.sh, ctrl-1 started ~45s before ctrl-2/ctrl-3 to match the user's actual timing) -- byte-for-byte matches the user's ctrl-1.log. ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup's 5.10b debounce branch (ha.c ~8573-8589, added 2026-07-01 commit 0d70d5e4, bug-1310 task 5.10b) returns WITHOUT calling ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask() when a debounced RDHUP lands within the 2x-election-timeout cooldown window, unlike the function's other two early-return branches: the 5.6 election-in-progress guard (checks role==CTRL_ELECTING || pre_vote_in_progress, i.e. actually verifies a live timer is still running elsewhere) and the 5.2 spurious-suppression branch (explicitly re-arms via ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask before returning). The 5.10b branch only checks elapsed time since last_failover_ms -- it never checks whether an election is ACTUALLY still in flight. On a lone cold-booting node (n_peers up but none reachable yet), the first PreVote round loses within milliseconds (all connect attempts fail fast -> counted as no-votes), which re-arms the liveness watchdog once (10s). When that watchdog fires again ~10s later, last_failover_ms is still inside the 2x-election-timeout cooldown (observed 9805ms < 10000ms), so it lands in the debounce branch even though no election is in flight anymore -- and returns without re-arming anything. That is the LAST timer ever scheduled in the process: /proc/<pid>/task/*/wchan confirmed every vtask worker thread idling in futex_do_wait (empty work queue, not deadlocked) and the io_worker thread parked in do_epoll_wait with zero further epoll events (lsof showed only the listen socket + epoll fd, no in-flight connections) for the remainder of the run. Node is permanently stuck CTRL_STANDBY with zero further election attempts -- other config-less nodes correctly wait forever for a primary that will never appear, so the whole cluster is permanently leaderless. Timing-dependent: reproducible only when the solo bootstrap window is long enough for a second liveness-timeout to land inside the cooldown after the first PreVote round already concluded (confirmed NOT reproducible with a tight ~0.5s inter-node start stagger, where a real peer answers before the trap window closes) -- explains why this presented as 'used to work' without any actual regression: bug has been latent since 2026-07-01, only the user's own start timing changed.",
"fix": "FIXED (TDD RED->GREEN). Added test_rdhup_debounce_still_rearms_liveness_watchdog (test_ha_rdhup_integration.c, next to the sibling test_rdhup_within_cooldown_is_debounced) -- asserts ha->last_activity moves off a sentinel after a debounced RDHUP, the same delaymgr-independent observable test_ha_arm_no_crash_no_thread (test_ha_liveness.c) already uses to prove ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask ran without a live delaymgr thread. RED confirmed pre-fix (assertion failed with the bug-1562 message). Fix: ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup's 5.10b debounce branch (ha.c ~8578-8598) now calls ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask(ha, c) before returning, mirroring the function's own 5.2 spurious-suppression branch pattern -- safe with c==NULL (unit-test mode) since the arm function stamps ha->last_activity unconditionally before its internal c-null/delaymgr-running check gates only the actual timer scheduling. GREEN: controller_unit_test 1102 tests, 2 Failures (both pre-existing, unrelated overlayfs fdatasync EIO sandbox flakiness in test_config_repl.c -- test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions and test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config -- confirmed via 'persist: flusher fdatasync FAILED (errno=5 Input/output error)' immediately preceding both in the test log; identical to the cerebrum.md-documented sandbox quirk, present before this change too). LIVE END-TO-END VALIDATION (per this project's live-soak-validation-discipline convention -- unit-green alone is not proof): rebuilt xce_controller (src/xce.build), redeployed the identical 3-node scenario that hung before (ctrl-1 solo 45s, then ctrl-2, then ctrl-3 -- byte-for-byte the same timing that previously froze the process forever). Post-fix ctrl-1.log shows the debounce branch now immediately followed by 'HA: standby liveness poll armed' (previously the log went dead right after the debounce line), the watchdog continuing to retry every ~10s through several more PreVote-loses/debounce cycles while alone, and once ctrl-2/ctrl-3 came online: 'HA FSM (raft): -> CTRL_PRIMARY (term=2, first_boot=0)' -- ctrl-1 successfully elected primary, and both controller/ctrl-2/conf and controller/ctrl-3/conf received the pushed cluster.bin + current config.

The soak's own verdict still reports PASS (committed_divergence=0, committed_job_loss=0) because the other two standbys' acks alone satisfy majority and the bug-924 fdatasync-error exclusion swallows the count -- but this specific pattern (a stuck LSN, EINVAL not the documented EIO, hundreds of retries per second) is a distinct, real defect from the known overlayfs sandbox quirk, not just noise.",

"root_cause": "fsync_worker's loop (persist.c) only calls pthread_cond_timedwait (its ONLY throttle/backoff mechanism) when flusher_work_pending_locked(p) is false. But that predicate is purely 'durable_lsn < tip' -- it cannot distinguish 'genuine fresh work just landed' from 'still stuck from the previous failed attempt', because flusher_flush_once()'s fail-loud gate (correct, unchanged) deliberately never advances durable_lsn on a failed fdatasync. Once fdatasync starts failing with no new appends arriving (a standby/primary transition mid-chaotic-kill with a broken local fd, or any sustained real disk error in production), durable_lsn < tip stays true forever, so 'pending' is permanently true and the loop skips the wait on every single iteration -- flusher_flush_once (and thus fdatasync) gets called as fast as the CPU/lock overhead allows, pinning one core and flooding the log. Confirmed by direct code read of flusher_work_pending_locked (dur < tip, no failure-awareness) and fsync_worker's loop structure (wait only in the !pending branch), and reproduced deterministically in a unit test (test_force_fsync_fail seam) before any live soak was re-run.",

Added test_flusher_flush_attempt_count (persist.h, XCE_TESTING-only atomic counter, incremented once per flusher_flush_once() call) and test_flusher_backs_off_on_sustained_fsync_failure (test_term_safety_adapter.c): forces every fdatasync to fail via the existing test_force_fsync_fail seam on a PRIMARY persist_t with wal_sync_ms=20, appends one entry (primary's append path defers all sync to the async flusher, unlike a standby's inline persist-before-ACK sync -- see test_on_persist_entry_failure_propagates_no_ack), waits 300ms, and asserts attempt count stays under 60 (~15 expected at a 20ms cadence). RED confirmed pre-fix (assertion failed -- unbounded spin). Fix: fsync_worker's loop (persist.c) now also waits (same pthread_cond_timedwait/wal_sync_ms cadence the idle path already uses, no new tunable) when the just-completed flush WAS pending but made no progress (after == before) -- i.e. specifically the failure case, never the legitimate 'nothing to sync' idle case (pending was false there, left untouched) nor a successful flush (after > before, still loops immediately to catch a fresh append with zero latency, unchanged fast path). GREEN: test_flusher_backs_off_on_sustained_fsync_failure passes with attempts=15 (was unbounded/thousands pre-fix in the same 300ms window). Full controller_unit_test: 1103 tests, 2 failures -- both pre-existing, unrelated overlayfs fdatasync EIO sandbox flakiness in test_config_repl.c (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions, test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config), confirmed unchanged from before this fix. LIVE VALIDATION: re-ran the 40-round chaotic /xce-test-ha soak that originally surfaced this, with the rebuilt binary -- excluded_bug924_fdatasync dropped from 304,689 to 0 in the re-run (VERDICT mode=chaotic rounds=40 jobs=123 committed_divergence=0 committed_job_loss=0 result=PASS). Also re-ran the 40-round sequential soak for completeness (PASS: 40 rounds, 123 jobs, zero job loss, all 3 nodes led) -- unaffected by this change as expected, confirming no regression.

"file": "src/controller/persist.c (persist_flush)",
"root_cause": "persist_flush() (the synchronous durability point tests and clean-shutdown use in place of waiting for the background flusher) advances durable_lsn directly under p->lock but never calls p->on_durable_advance -- only fsync_worker's own successful flusher_flush_once() call fires that callback (persist.c, 'after > before' gate). Any WAIT-blocked commit caller (commit_engine's COMMIT_MODE_WAIT) that relies on on_durable_advance to be re-evaluated is therefore never woken by a persist_flush()-driven advance -- only by fsync_worker's own next successful cycle. This gap was LATENT and never triggered before bug-1563: pre-1563, fsync_worker's un-throttled retry loop (the livelock bug-1563 fixed) spun continuously while work was pending, so it happened to notice any state change (e.g. a test clearing test_force_fsync_fail) and independently re-attempt+succeed+fire the callback within microseconds, completely masking that persist_flush's own advance was silently un-observed. bug-1563's fix (correct: fsync_worker now backs off up to wal_sync_ms between failed attempts instead of spinning) removed that accidental fast-repoll cover, so a persist_flush()-only advance during a slow-cadence window (make_durability_persist uses wal_sync_ms=5000 deliberately, 'durability comes from the explicit flush, not the timer') now genuinely times out the 2000ms-budget WAIT with nothing left to wake it for the remaining ~4.7s fsync_worker was still asleep.",
"fix": "FIXED (TDD RED->GREEN). Added test_persist_flush_fires_durable_advance_callback (test_commit_durability.c, next to test_durable_majority_commit_end_to_end): registers a counting callback via persist_set_durable_cb, appends an entry, asserts persist_flush() fires it exactly once on a genuine advance and not again on a no-op flush. RED confirmed against the pre-fix persist_flush (0 fires). Fix: persist_flush() now fires p->on_durable_advance(p->durable_cb_ctx) after releasing p->lock, gated on advanced==true (only when durable_lsn actually moved) -- identical gate and identical lock-ordering discipline (strictly outside p->lock, so the callback's own ce->lock acquisition has no p->lock held underneath it) to fsync_worker's own existing callback-firing code.

Discovered live while enhancing /xce-deploy-ha: a working xce_controller from an earlier turn vanished after an unrelated `/xce-build xceadmin` run in the same xce.build dir, breaking a live-deploy test with 'No such file or directory' for the controller binary.",

Since `meson compile -C \"$BUILD_DIR\" <component>` only rebuilds that one target afterward, every OTHER previously-built target in the same dir (e.g. xce_controller, when the requested component was xceadmin) is gone until something explicitly rebuilds it too. Not investigated further / not fixed -- out of scope for the /xce-deploy-ha enhancement session that found it; flagged here for whoever owns xce-build.sh next. A likely fix direction: only rm -rf+reconfigure when MESON_OPTS actually differ from the existing build dir's recorded options (or on first setup / explicit request), otherwise just `meson compile -C \"$BUILD_DIR\" <target>` against the existing configured dir.",
"fix": "FIXED (opt-in, not a default-behavior change). Added --incremental to xce-build.sh (parsed out of the argument list before the existing component/profile/build_dir positional parsing, so it can appear anywhere and never disturbs that parsing). When passed AND the target build dir already has a build.ninja (i.e. it's already configured), setup_build() runs `meson setup --reconfigure \"$BUILD_DIR\" \"${MESON_OPTS[@]}\"` in place instead of `rm -rf` + fresh `meson setup` -- preserving any other already-built component's binaries in that dir. First-ever build of a dir (no build.ninja yet) still does a normal fresh setup regardless of the flag, since there's nothing to reconfigure. Default (flag omitted) is completely unchanged -- still always wipes. Deliberately NOT made the default: the known missing-dependency-edge races in the capnp-generation custom_target (see recurring buglog entries on 'controller.capnp.h: No such file or directory') are papered over by always wiping (worst case: a loud, retry-fixable clean-build failure); without the wipe the same gap could instead cause SILENT staleness (a schema edit not triggering regeneration, build reports success against stale generated code) -- an --incremental caller is explicitly opting into that tradeoff. Live-validated: built controller (xce_controller present), then `xceadmin --incremental` (wheel built, xce_controller's mtime unchanged -- survived); confirmed the flag works regardless of argument position (`--incremental xceadmin` and `xceadmin --incremental` both work); confirmed the DEFAULT (no flag) still wipes as before (xce_controller correctly gone after a plain `xceadmin` rebuild).

"file": "src/scheduler/src/sim.c, src/scheduler/src/sim_loop.c",
"root_cause": "Two compounding, both explicitly documented 'Known scope boundary' gaps in the scheduler-core sim driver (task 11.1/11.2, .kiro/specs/scheduler-core): (1) sched_sim_driver_start() (sim.c) loads the initial snapshot via xce_sched_core_load_snapshot() BEFORE any picker plugin is registered into core->plugins -- only job_pick_plugin's NAME is threaded through from the ReplayHeader (sim.h:206-216's own doc comment). sched_resolve_job_picker() therefore returns -ENOENT (=-2), producing the WARN, and the picker-rebuild walk (on_queue_update/on_job_push) inside xce_sched_core_load_snapshot() is silently skipped for every job/queue in the initial snapshot. The real picker only gets registered moments later, in sim_register_default_picker() (sim_loop.c:381, called from sched_sim_driver_run() right after start() returns) -- but nothing re-pushes the already-loaded jobs/queues into it, so any job present in the replay file's INITIAL snapshot is permanently invisible to the fcfs picker's next_job(). (2) Independently, sim_picker_thread_fn() (sim_loop.c:448) has its own documented scope boundary: real resource-matching allocation (sched_make_allocation()) needs a live xce_scheduler_t* that the sim driver deliberately doesn't have, and no core-only equivalent exists yet (deferred to the separate, not-yet-designed .kiro/specs/scheduler-allocation spec) -- so EVERY candidate the picker selects is unconditionally turned into a PEND decision; dispatch is not implemented in simulation mode at all today, regardless of resource availability.",
"fix": "FIXED (TDD, RED->GREEN). New file src/scheduler/src/sim_picker.c: sim_bootstrap_picker() (replaces sim_loop.c's sim_register_default_picker(), moved out because sim_loop.c was already at its documented 800-line 'zero line-budget headroom' cap) registers the real builtin_fcfs picker AND then replays the picker-rebuild walk (on_queue_update per queue, on_job_push per pending job) that xce_sched_core_load_snapshot() had to skip at initial-snapshot-load time. Wired into scheduler_srcs, sched_sim_isolation_lib, and all 9 white-box test TUs that #include sim_loop.c directly (test_sim_isolation.c mechanically re-verified). New regression test: test_sim_event_loop.c's test_job_present_only_in_initial_snapshot_still_reaches_the_picker -- builds a fixture with a job baked into the INITIAL snapshot (not a ReplayEvent), asserts it gets a live PEND decision.

A worker connecting triggers MULTIPLE WORKERS_PUSH events in quick succession (confirmed live: sched.c's collect_resval()/xcesched_push_workers() fire more than once during join sequencing -- e.g. an early push before src/controller/worker.c's apply_join_state()->add_hostattrs_resvals()/set_host_slots() has finished writing real hostattrs-derived values into w->host.resvals, carrying stale/zero data, followed by a later push carrying the real values). The FIRST push's sched_add_worker() call succeeds and registers the worker (confirmed: 'sched_add_worker(\"pc13v\") ok (idx=0)' at 10:02:34.848, immediately preceded by a TRACE showing it received maxmem=0.000000). The SECOND push's freshly-built xce_sched_worker_t -- this time carrying the REAL values (confirmed: 'resource maxmem received fvalue=33182089216.000000', matching xce_test's own real 30.9GB reading, at 10:02:36.849 -- silently fails sched_add_worker() with rc=-17 (-EEXIST) one line later in the SAME log, and its return value was unchecked until this investigation's own instrumentation added the WARN (core_events.c, added this session) that finally surfaced it. The correctly-valued worker object is discarded/leaked; core->workers['pc13v'] permanently keeps the FIRST, zero-valued object. This is not limited to the initial-join race -- because there is no 'update an existing worker in place' event type (unlike jobs, which have XCE_CORE_EVENT_JOB_STATE_CHANGE/JOB_UPDATE for in-place mutation of an already-added job), EVERY subsequent WORKERS_PUSH for an already-registered worker (sched_worker_change's ongoing per-event pushes throughout normal cluster operation, not just at join) hits the identical silent EEXIST-discard. The scheduler's view of a worker's resources freezes forever at whichever push happened to land first and win the race, and never updates again for the lifetime of the process. UPDATE: after fixing sched_add_worker's EEXIST discard, live re-testing showed 'info worker' STILL displayed 0.00 for every resource despite value-level TRACE evidence confirming the real number (e.g. slots=22, maxmem=33182089216) survived the FULL round trip intact -- controller push -> scheduler apply -> snapshot save (20/20 captured) -> snapshot load/decode (20/20 restored, correct fvalue) -- so the remaining gap had to be in the DISPLAY layer itself, unconnected to the push/save/load pipeline. Found: repl_info_worker_one()/repl_info_resource_one() (src/scheduler/src/repl_info.c) checked `avail_v->which == XCE_VAL_NUMERIC` to decide whether an xce_val_t held a real number. XCE_VAL_NUMERIC (xce/types.h, value 1) is a RESOURCE-DEFINITION value-type constant (xce_resource_t.valtype's own enum) -- a completely different enum from xce_val_t.which's real domain, Value_u_which (controller.capnp.h, Value_u_fvalue=5). Every producer in this codebase sets xce_val_t.which to Value_u_fvalue, never XCE_VAL_NUMERIC, so the comparison was ALWAYS false for a genuinely-numeric resval -- 'info worker'/'info resource' printed total=0.00/available=0.00 unconditionally, regardless of whether the underlying data was correct (which it was, once bug-1567's picker fix and the sched_add_worker EEXIST fix were both in place). This display bug is what made the user's originally-reported symptom persist even after both upstream fixes.",
"fix": "FIXED (TDD, RED->GREEN), TWO independent root causes, both confirmed and fixed: (1) src/scheduler/src/core_events.c: XCE_CORE_EVENT_WORKERS_PUSH now goes through a new core_upsert_worker() (mirrors the existing core_upsert_queue() add-or-update precedent) -- looks up the worker by name first (sched_get_worker()), updates status+resvals in place if found (via a new shared core_apply_worker_resvals() helper, safe without a wipe step since zarray_put() already frees any existing value at a given index), else builds+adds a new one via the original core_build_worker()/sched_add_worker() path. New regression test in test_core_events.c: two WORKERS_PUSH events for the SAME worker name with DIFFERENT resource values must both apply -- resvals end up at the SECOND push's values, not stuck at the first, no duplicate/orphaned worker object.

"error_message": "TWO related, still-open problems on a live normal-mode (non-sim) deployment, found while verifying bug-1567/bug-1568's fixes actually let a real job dispatch: (A) 'info worker'/xceadmin-recorded snapshot still shows 0.00 for 'mem'/'r1m'/'r15m'/'r15s'/'ut'/'pg'/'ls'/'it'/'swp'/'io'/'tmp' (the 11 periodic resource_sync 'load index' metrics) even though xce_test's live 'resval -n mem -m pc13v' / 'resval -n r15s -m pc13v' show correct non-zero values on the SAME worker at the SAME time -- hostattrs-derived resources (slots/maxcpus/maxmem/maxswap/maxtmp/cpuf/ndisks, all fixed correctly by bug-1568) display fine; only the periodic/dynamic ones are still wrong. (B) A submitted job (single or array, queue 'xce', resreq 'type == any', worker 'pc13v' with 22 real slots available) never leaves PEND -- xce_sched_driver_run_normal_mode_round logs 'decision = (nil)' on EVERY round, forever (60+ consecutive rounds observed), meaning the scheduler never produces even a PEND decision, let alone DISPATCH, for any job.",
"root_cause": "(A) FULLY ROOT-CAUSED AND FIXED. The periodic resval update path is DIFFERENT from the join-time hostattrs push bug-1568 fixed: src/controller/opupd.c's do_update_resvals() applies a worker's periodic report locally using the CORRECT connection-resolved worker `w`, but then re-fires HOOK_DETAIL_RESOURCE_UPDATE with the wire `resvals` list's OWN unmodified `.host` field, forwarded unchanged by src/controller/sched.c's sched_resource_hook_fun() -> notify() -> scheduler's handler.c/driver.c/core_events.c XCE_CORE_EVENT_RESVALS_DELTA case, which does `sched_get_worker(core, rv->host)`. The true source of the wrong `.host` was WORKER-side, not xcecd_virtual-specific: src/worker/src/resource_sync.c's collect_load_indices() tagged every periodic report with gethostname() (the raw OS/container hostname -- 'xce' in this sandbox) instead of xcecd_ctx.virtual_name (the worker's actual join identity from -n/--name, e.g. 'pc13v'), which is what every OTHER worker-keyed lookup (mark_host_res()/sched_get_worker()) uses. FIXED (this session): collect_load_indices() now tags .host with xcecd_ctx.virtual_name, falling back to gethostname() only when virtual_name is unset. IMPORTANT CORRECTION to this entry's earlier note: after applying this fix, 'info worker'/'resval' via the INTERACTIVE REPL (`xce_scheduler -i -s <replay>`) appeared to still show 0.00 for mem/r1m/r15m/r15s/ut/pg/ls/it/swp/io/tmp -- this was a TEST-METHODOLOGY ARTIFACT, not a residual bug: the REPL starts PAUSED at the initial snapshot and requires an explicit `step`/`continue` command to advance the simulated clock past the recorded resvalsDelta ReplayEvent before querying state; querying immediately after load (as this investigation's own test scripts did, e.g. `echo -e \"info worker pc13v\\nquit\"` with no step/continue first) only ever shows the pre-periodic-report baseline. Live-confirmed end-to-end via -vvv scheduler.log (schedUpdateResvals notify arrives, zero 'unknown worker'/'unknown resource' WARNs, xceadmin scheduler dump shows the resvalsDelta event correctly captured with all 11 metrics @pc13v) AND via `step N` in the REPL (mem=16786444288.00, r1m=0.64, r15m=0.99, r15s=0.64, ut=2.08, pg=463.20, it=3341.19, tmp=65732259840.00 -- all correct; ls/swp/io legitimately 0 on this idle sandbox). (B) FULLY ROOT-CAUSED AND FIXED -- THREE independent causes stacked on the same symptom, each one masking the next (each was only reachable once the prior one was fixed), all live-confirmed via gdb backtraces on real SIGSEGVs: B1 (legacy xce_sched_fcfs picker active) was RULED OUT via the main.c diagnostic INFO log -- confirmed 'active job picker plugin: builtin_fcfs'. B2 (resource-starvation) was RULED OUT -- dynamic resvals confirmed correctly flowing into live core state (thread A's fix), yet decisions stayed nil. The TRUE causes: (B-i) scheduler.c's sched_init_queues() -- the scheduler's ONE-TIME synchronous initial-config-push handler (handler.c's scheduler_req_handler, Request_body_configpushmsg) -- only called the pre-scheduler-core-rewrite plugin_queue_update() fan-out, which reaches a plugin's OLD job_elect_fn-era `.hooks.queue_hook` only; builtin_fcfs has no `.hooks`, only `picker_iface`, so on_queue_update() was NEVER called for any of the cluster's initial queues. builtin_fcfs's own internal per-queue candidate registry (fcfs_plugin_data_t.queues) stayed permanently empty from process start, so next_job() found zero candidates every session forever -- exactly 'decision=(nil) forever', regardless of resources/readiness. Every OTHER queue-registration path (core_events.c's core_upsert_queue(), used by QUEUE_UPDATE and a later CONFIG_PUSH config upgrade) already fired on_queue_update() correctly -- this was the one remaining call site still skipping it. (B-ii) Once B-i was fixed and a job first reached the picker, core_events.c's core_build_job() was found to never construct job->schedobj -- a DELIBERATE, DOCUMENTED omission from the scheduler-core rewrite ('no picker hook reads job->schedobj... belongs to the allocation path (scheduler-allocation spec), out of this task's scope') whose assumption was wrong: scheduler.c's sched_allocator() thread (plugin_job_election() + sched_make_allocation()) dereferences job->schedobj directly with no NULL check, and no 'scheduler-allocation spec' construction step exists anywhere in the live codebase -- every job built via JOBS_PUSH has had schedobj==NULL since the rewrite, reproduced live as a SIGSEGV in plugins/limit.c's limit_job_election() (obj->configver dereference on NULL obj), gdb-confirmed. (B-iii) Once B-i and B-ii were both fixed, a job reached genuine allocation (sched_make_allocation returned 1, a real DISPATCH) for the first time ever, and crashed a THIRD time inside resource.c's put_resvals() (gdb: NULL deref on xvals[0]) during post-dispatch resource-charge accounting -- an off-by-one: `if (idxs[i] <= 0) continue;` incorrectly treated resource index 0 ('slots', almost always the first resource resmgr registers) as an invalid sentinel, so the 'create a zero-value entry if missing' step was skipped for it, leaving xvals[0] NULL for the unconditional `xvals[i]->u.fvalue = vals[i]` write two lines later. get_resvals() (its read-side sibling in the same file) has no such guard, confirming this was a bug, not intentional design.",
"fix": "(A) FIXED -- src/worker/src/resource_sync.c's collect_load_indices() now tags .host with xcecd_ctx.virtual_name (fallback: gethostname() if unset). TDD: RED test confirmed the bug (test_collect_load_indices_tags_host_with_virtual_name_not_gethostname expected 'pc13v', got 'xce'), GREEN after fix; new src/worker/testsuite/test_resource_sync.c (2 tests) added to src/worker/testsuite/meson.build, full worker suite green (3/3). Live-validated on a real 3-process deployment (controller+scheduler+xcecd_virtual): 'unknown worker' WARN eliminated, resvalsDelta event correctly recorded/replayed with real values. (B) FIXED, all 3 stacked causes: (B-i) src/scheduler/src/scheduler.c's sched_init_queues() now resolves the active picker once and calls `picker->picker_iface->on_queue_update(picker, q)` for every queue from the initial config, in addition to the pre-existing plugin_queue_update() legacy fan-out (kept for job_elect_fn-only plugin compat) -- best-effort, logs+continues on a picker-resolve failure the same way core_upsert_queue() does. (B-ii) src/scheduler/src/core_events.c: new core-scoped core_build_schedobj()/core_build_primary_schedobj()/core_build_compound_schedobj()/core_build_alter_schedobj() (a port of schedobj.c's make_sched_obj()+3 helpers, parameterized WITHOUT xce_scheduler_t* since the original's `sched` param was verified dead/unused in its own body -- preserves this file's zero-controller-I/O boundary), wired into core_build_job() right after job->resreq is parsed. (B-iii) src/scheduler/src/resource.c's put_resvals(): `idxs[i] <= 0` -> `idxs[i] < 0` (idx 0 is a legitimate resource index, not a sentinel), plus a defensive NULL guard added to the second loop for the (now-unreachable except on OOM) calloc-failure case get_resvals() already guards against. All 3 confirmed via TWO independent live 1-node deployments (controller+scheduler+xcecd_virtual, real jobsub via xce_test): first with temporary WARN-level diagnostics in builtin_fcfs.c pinpointing exactly where each fix took effect (removed before commit, confirmed via `grep DIAG` returning empty), then a clean run with a 3-element job array -- ALL elements reached state DONE (PEND -> DISPATCH -> RUN -> DONE), scheduler process stayed alive throughout (no crash), decision log showed a real non-nil decision pointer (previously always (nil)). Root-caused the two post-B-i crashes via gdb `bt full` on the live SIGSEGVs, not guesswork. Full scheduler suite green (40/41, the 1 failure is bug-1479-unrelated pre-existing symlink-escape filename-validation test flakiness, confirmed unaffected -- same failure present both before and after this fix's stash/rebuild).",

Meanwhile driver.c's release_translated_payload() (called at driver.c:586 with applied=(push_rc>=0) after every successfully-pushed batch) has a case XCE_SCHED_OP_UPDATE_RESVALS: `free_ResValList_ptr(&(req->u.resvalupdate.resvals))` with NO `if (!applied)` guard -- unlike the sibling XCE_SCHED_OP_UPDATE_CONFIG case, which explicitly skips the free when applied (\"core->config now owns it permanently -- do not free\"). Net effect: every successfully-applied RESVALS_DELTA batch immediately frees the exact xce_val_t objects that were just aliased into w->resvals[idx], leaving a dangling pointer there. The dangling pointer is inert until the SAME (worker, resource) index is updated again -- at that point zarray_put's killer (kill_sched_resval -> free_Value) is invoked on the already-freed pointer, a double-free that aborts the ASAN-instrumented process.

That garbage pointer is then passed unconditionally into xcecli_update_resvals()'s wire encoder inside &valptrs[0], which (most likely) dereferences it as a C string, causing the segfault. Task 2.1's own comment at test.c (near set_resval, 'the switch falls through with vals[idx].name/.val->which left unset ... intentionally not fixed by this task, see CONCERNS') already flagged this exact gap and deliberately preserved it byte-for-byte per Requirement 1.4, rather than introducing it.

When cleanup() ran as a normal function call/return within the script's own top-to-bottom control flow (e.g. from fail()), all four completed reliably. When cleanup() instead ran from on_exit as the EXIT trap fired by an asynchronously-delivered SIGTERM (via a separate `trap 'exit 143' TERM` translating the signal into an explicit exit), the sequence of pkill forks was intermittently and non-deterministically cut short partway through (confirmed via added debug instrumentation: one run stopped after the 1st pkill, another after the 3rd, another after the 2nd -- no fixed failure point, consistent with a timing race rather than a deterministic pattern-matching bug). Root cause not fully isolated at the syscall level (ruled out: pattern-matching correctness -- each individual pkill pattern was independently verified correct via direct pgrep; ruled out: cgroup pids/resource exhaustion -- process count stayed low, ~20-25 total throughout). Most likely a bash/signal-trap interaction where starting new child processes (fork/exec for each pkill) from within a trap handler invoked asynchronously (as opposed to synchronous top-level exit) has some window of unreliability in this environment.",
"fix": "Rewrote cleanup() to (1) combine all four per-component patterns into ONE `pkill -9 -f` call using extended-regex alternation (`\"pat1|pat2|pat3|pat4\"`) instead of four separate invocations -- fewer fork/exec round trips through the trap-handler code path -- and (2) wrap it in a retry-until-verified loop (`pgrep -f` check, up to 10 attempts at 0.2s intervals) so a slow/racy single kill attempt can no longer silently leave a process behind.

"root_cause": "ROOT-CAUSED, PRE-EXISTING (predates resource-value-verification by ~5 months, NOT introduced by tasks 2.1/2.2/6.1). sched_worker_change() (src/controller/sched.c) aliases w->host.resvals_to_sched/nresvals_to_sched directly to a local xlist_t resvalist's backing array (resvalist.data), pushes it to the scheduler connection, then calls xlist_fini(&resvalist) -- which frees that backing array -- WITHOUT first resetting w->host.resvals_to_sched to NULL / nresvals_to_sched to 0. The correct reset-before-free code exists in the function but is wrapped in a dead `#if 0 /*FIXME*/ ... #endif` block, introduced already-disabled by commit acfbec875 (2026-03-03, 'save works'). This leaves w->host.resvals_to_sched a DANGLING pointer and nresvals_to_sched a stale nonzero count on the worker_t struct for the rest of that worker's lifetime. commit e5fde7b5 (2026-05-20, 'fix(persist): zero nresvals_to_sched after free_name_val_list') attempted to fix exactly this class of bug but edited code INSIDE the already-dead #if 0 block, so the fix silently never took effect. When the worker later disconnects, handle_worker_leave() -> mark_worker_unavail() fires the WORKER_DEAD hook -> persist_worker_hook_fun() -> capnp_encode_worker() -> encode_Worker() -> encode_NameValue_list(), which iterates the stale count over the freed array and dereferences a garbage/NULL entry in encode_NameValue() -> SIGSEGV. Only manifests once a scheduler has connected at least once: on_scheduler_join() (sched.c) registers sched_worker_hook_fun into c->hooksys (gated by a `static int hook_installed` one-shot flag) ONLY on the first scheduler join -- a controller with no scheduler ever connecting never reaches the buggy sched_worker_change(), so w->host.resvals_to_sched stays NULL/0 forever and persist_worker_hook_fun's later read is always safe. This exactly matches run-resource-verify.sh's controller+scheduler+apiserver deployment shape and explains the original isolation matrix precisely. The sibling function apiserver_worker_change() (src/controller/apiserver.c ~line 479-481) does the reset correctly (NOT wrapped in #if 0), which is why apiserver-only interaction never crashed.",
"fix": "FIX IDENTIFIED, NOT YET APPLIED (out of task 6.1's boundary -- lives entirely in sched.c, a file no task in this feature touches). In src/controller/sched.c's sched_worker_change(), replace the dead block:\n #if 0\n /*FIXME*/\n free_name_val_list(&(w->host.resvals_to_sched), &(w->host.nresvals_to_sched));\n #endif\n xlist_fini(&resvalist);\nwith the exact working pattern already used by apiserver_worker_change():\n w->host.nresvals_to_sched = 0;\n w->host.resvals_to_sched = NULL;\n xlist_fini(&resvalist);\nIMPORTANT: do NOT simply uncomment the existing free_name_val_list() call as-is -- that would introduce a DOUBLE FREE instead. free_name_val_list() (src/lib/utils.c:412) already deep-frees every entry AND the outer array (FREEUP(resvals) where resvals == w->host.resvals_to_sched == the identical pointer value as resvalist.data), then sets w->host.resvals_to_sched itself to NULL -- but resvalist.data (the xlist_t's own separate field, still holding that same now-freed address) is untouched by that call, so the very next line's xlist_fini(&resvalist) -> FREEUP(resvalist.data) would free the identical address a second time. This is almost certainly why the original author disabled it with #if 0 rather than deleting it. Secondary/lower-severity, NOT part of this fix: both sched_worker_change() and apiserver_worker_change() leak the individual xce_name_val_t entries collected into resvalist -- xlist_fini() only frees the outer array (FREEUP(l->data)), never each entry's .name/.val/nv allocations -- worth a separate follow-up. Also worth a wider audit: other readers/freers of w->resvals_to_sched (opget.c:128 do_reply_workerlist(), apiserver.c, dataex.c) may have the same latent dangling-pointer exposure, only the WORKER_DEAD->persist path was confirmed live in this repro. FIX APPLIED 2026-08-18: src/controller/sched.c sched_worker_change() -- replaced the dead `#if 0 /*FIXME*/ free_name_val_list(...) #endif` block with `w->host.nresvals_to_sched = 0; w->host.resvals_to_sched = NULL;` immediately before `xlist_fini(&resvalist);` -- matching apiserver_worker_change()'s proven pattern exactly (src/controller/apiserver.c:480-482). Verified: (1) xce-build.sh controller -- clean build, 1102/1104 controller tests pass (the 2 failures are pre-existing bug-1561 overlayfs/fdatasync sandbox artifacts, unrelated); (2) live repro via run-resource-verify.sh --keep-running -- deployed controller+scheduler+apiserver, joined synthetic worker 'resverify-worker', ran resupdate for 9 resource values (all accepted), worker disconnected ('quit') triggering handle_worker_leave -> sched_worker_change (pushing 17 resvals to scheduler, twice, situation=HOOK_AFTER_EVENT) -- the exact previously-fatal sequence. Controller stayed alive and logging normally for ~2 minutes past the disconnect (previously died within 1-10s); no SEGV, no ASAN report, no core file. No new unit test added -- sched_worker_change() is a static function with no existing test coverage and no testable-static-function harness pattern in this codebase (confirmed via codegraph), and the crash path requires a live scheduler connection + hooksys + persist/capnp encoding chain across sched.c/cluster.c/persist.c -- disproportionate scaffolding for a 2-line fix; live-repro evidence used instead, per this codebase's established xce-test-ha-class convention. UNIT TEST ADDED 2026-08-18 (follow-up task, closes the gap this entry originally flagged as missing): src/controller/testsuite/test_sched_worker_change.c (new standalone binary, sched_worker_change_unit_test, wired into src/controller/meson.build mirroring sched_push_unit_test's real-sched.c+dataex.c+egress.c linking strategy). Test 1 fires XCE_CONTROLLER_HOOK_WORKER/HOOK_DETAIL_WORKER_DEAD via xce_run_hooks() (the same production entry point handle_worker_leave()->mark_worker_unavail() uses) on a worker_t with a populated w->host.resvals, then asserts w->host.resvals_to_sched==NULL && nresvals_to_sched==0. Test 2 goes further: after the same hook fire, it calls the REAL production encoder encode_Worker() (controller.capnp.c) directly on the worker -- the exact function bug-1578's crash backtrace bottoms out in via capnp_encode_worker/persist_worker_hook_fun -- so a regression is caught as an ASAN heap-use-after-free, not just a failed assertion. RED/GREEN verified live: temporarily re-wrapping the fix in the original dead `#if 0 ... #endif` block reproduced a genuine ASAN heap-use-after-free (encode_NameValue_list, controller.capnp.c:3408, freed by xlist_fini<-sched_worker_change<-sched_worker_dead<-sched_worker_hook_fun) -- confirming the earlier claim in this same entry ('no testable-static-function harness pattern exists in this codebase for it') was wrong; xce_run_hooks() through the real installed hooksys is exactly that harness, already proven by sched_push_unit_test for the JOB hook and now for the WORKER hook too. Restored the approved fix afterward (verified via git diff byte-identical to the pre-revert state) and confirmed GREEN again.",

"root_cause": "NOT A BUG -- documented, intentional controller production behavior colliding with this test script's own multi-process session structure. inject_resources() (task 6.1) runs join+resupdate+quit in ONE xce_test process; the 'quit' disconnects the synthetic worker's TCP connection to the controller at the end of that same script. query_controller_resvals() (task 6.2) then runs its resval query in a SEPARATE, LATER xce_test process/session -- by which point the synthetic worker is already gone from the controller's perspective. 'cpuf' is one of worker.c's N_HOST_ATTRS resources (add_hostattrs_resvals(), worker.c:260-287: type/model/cpuf/maxcpus/maxmem/maxswap/maxtmp/ndisks), which mark_worker_unavail() -> apply_worker_dead_mutation() (worker.c:704-716) deliberately RESETS (reset_hostattrs_unknown() then re-applies add_hostattrs_resvals()) whenever a worker is marked dead/disconnected -- correct, intentional production behavior for a REAL worker daemon that has genuinely gone away (you don't want a dead worker still advertising stale cpu capacity for scheduling). Every OTHER default resource (r15m, pg, ls, it, swp, io, tmp, mem -- none of which are in worker.c's N_HOST_ATTRS list) is a generic, non-host-attrs resval that persists correctly across worker disconnect and reported MATCH. Confirmed via live isolation: re-running with the exact same 8 non-cpuf resources reported 8/8 MATCH; re-running the mixed accept/reject scenario (mem=5, not-a-real-resource=1) correctly reported mem MATCH and skipped the rejected resource entirely (no query attempted). design.md's own sequence diagram does not show a worker disconnect between the resupdate leg and the resval-query leg, implying the intended flow keeps the synthetic worker connected throughout verification -- task 6.1's single-shot 'join;resupdate;quit' session structure deviates from that, but only resources that collide with worker.c's host-attrs reset list are affected.",
"fix": "DEFAULT-SET INSTANCE FIXED (task 6.2 remediation round 2): DEFAULT_RESOURCE_ARGS in run-resource-verify.sh now uses \"r1m=9.5\" instead of \"cpuf=9.5\" as the second already-supported regression-coverage name (mem=8.5 kept as-is -- mem is NOT host-attrs, confirmed safe). r1m is confirmed via resval_typeresolve.c's resinfo[] table to be a genuinely pre-existing resource name, and via src/worker/src/resource_sync.c to be a periodic/dynamic load-index resource (not in worker.c's N_HOST_ATTRS list), so it preserves the original 'already-supported name for regression coverage' intent without the disconnect-reset problem. Live-validated: default (no-args) set now reports a clean N/N MATCH with no false cpuf mismatch. Original two options re-evaluated: option (a) -- drop the host-attrs name from the default set -- is what was taken here. Option (b) -- keep the synthetic worker's xce_test session connected across all per-layer checks instead of quitting after inject_resources() -- was investigated live and found NOT to be a simple call-reordering fix: xce_test's REPL has no command path from the `worker` context back to the `client` context without first calling leave_ctx() (via `..`/cmd_up), which performs the exact same disconnect that `quit` does. Making option (b) work would require either a C-level xce_test change (e.g. a context-preserving command) or a materially riskier bash coprocess restructuring of this script -- both explicitly out of scope for this remediation. The underlying production behavior (add_hostattrs_resvals() / mark_worker_unavail() resetting host-attrs resources on worker disconnect) remains correct and untouched, and this note is preserved for any FUTURE task or user-supplied custom resource=value argument that names a host-attrs resource (type, model, cpuf, maxcpus, maxmem, maxswap, maxtmp, ndisks) -- those still hit this same class of false-MISMATCH if queried after the synthetic worker disconnects.\n\nREAL FIX APPLIED (follow-up session, 2026-08-18): the underlying disconnect-timing gap this workaround left open for any host-attrs name is now actually closed, not just avoided for the default set. run-resource-verify.sh's inject_resources() now inserts a `!bash \"$SELF_SCRIPT\" --internal-controller-check <TOP> <PEERS> <WORKER_HOST> <name...>` line (xce_test's `!<shell-command>` escape, preprocess_and_run(), test.c ~line 950-998 -- a single top-level-REPL-loop call site that works identically in ANY context including `worker`, with no leave_ctx()/disconnect) BETWEEN `resupdate` and `quit`, inside the SAME xce_test worker session. This invokes a new internal_controller_check() function (hidden dispatch at the bottom of the script, before `main \"$@\"`) that runs a nested client-context xce_test session and queries resval for every requested name WHILE the synthetic worker's connection is still open -- so a host-attrs resource is never reset to baseline before it is checked. Raw observed values are written to logs/controller-check-raw.tsv; query_controller_resvals() (still called at the same point in main(), after inject_resources() returns) now reads that file instead of running its own live query -- a pure sequencing change, the MATCH/MISMATCH comparison logic and TSV formats are byte-for-byte unchanged. DEFAULT_RESOURCE_ARGS restored `cpuf=9.5` (dropped the r1m workaround) as live proof: 'controller check: cpuf -> MATCH' now, not the old false MISMATCH. Live-validated (5 separate runs): default 9-resource set incl. cpuf clean 9/9 MATCH at both controller and scheduler layers (~5-7s total runtime); mixed accept/reject with a host-attrs custom name (cpuf=3.25 alongside a rejected unknown resource) correctly MATCHes cpuf and skips the rejected name at both layers; --keep-running and mid-injection SIGTERM (landing WHILE the nested `!`-escape check was actively running) both verified clean, zero orphaned xce_test processes (full /proc/[0-9]*/cmdline scan, not just pgrep). Option (b) from the original analysis below (keep the session connected) turned out to be achievable after all via this `!`-escape mechanism, without any C-level xce_test change -- the earlier conclusion that it needed one was specific to trying to move BETWEEN contexts (worker -> client) without disconnecting, which is genuinely not possible; running an entirely separate NESTED xce_test client session via a shell escape while remaining IN the worker context sidesteps that limitation entirely.",

But query_scheduler_resvals()/query_apiserver_resvals() (tasks 6.3/6.4, already-approved) unconditionally SET these array entries for every accepted+checked resource -- including on a genuine UNREACHABLE/timeout, where the value is just set to the empty string \"\". Since the key always existed, sched_ok/api_ok were always 1 regardless of reachability, so aggregate_verdict() never saw the real UNREACHABLE status -- it fell through to comparing the injected value against an empty string, which reads as MISMATCH instead of UNREACHABLE. Contradicted Requirement 6.3, design.md's Error Handling (\"Layer unreachable ... labeled UNREACHABLE distinctly from MISMATCH ... not a silent skip\"), and this task's own SKILL.md documentation of the same behavior. Note: the analogous ctrl_ok derivation (from CONTROLLER_OBSERVED array-key existence) is NOT affected -- query_controller_resvals()/internal_controller_check() has no separate UNREACHABLE concept at all (a query failure there aborts the whole run via fail()), so array-key existence is an accurate proxy for that layer specifically.",

Also extracted main()'s inline record-building loop into a standalone build_verdict_records_from_tsv() function (populates global VERDICT_RECORDS) so a synthetic test can exercise main()'s ACTUAL data-marshaling code (not just aggregate_verdict() called directly with hand-built records, which is what round-1's task 8.2-style synthetic tests did and which structurally could never have caught this bug). Live-reproduced the reviewer's exact scenario (kill scheduler right after deployment confirms up, before inject_resources()/query_scheduler_resvals() ever runs) and confirmed the VERDICT line now correctly shows `unreachable=9 mismatches=0` (all 9 default-set resources) with `status=UNREACHABLE ... observed=<none>` FAILURE lines, apiserver/controller layers unaffected (still MATCH). New synthetic regression test (scenario E, using build_verdict_records_from_tsv() directly) added and confirmed to fail against a reverted copy of the old buggy logic (unreachable=0 mismatches=2) and pass against the fix (unreachable=1 mismatches=1 across a mixed good/schedbad/apibad/rejected batch) -- proving the test is meaningful, not tautological.",

Only the simulation driver (sim.c's sim_set_virtual_clock(), called from sched_sim_driver_start()) ever seeds a genuine epoch anchor -- the normal-mode driver (scheduler.c's sched_init()) never did. recording.c's sched_record_start()/sched_record_stop() stamp record_start_ts and every ReplayEvent/SnapshotEntry ts via xce_core_now(), and controller.capnp's SchedAdminReply.startedAt is explicitly documented as 'nanoseconds since epoch' (which xceadmin's cli.py _format_timestamp_ns() renders via datetime.fromtimestamp(ns/1e9, tz=utc)) -- so a normal-mode scheduler's uptime-since-boot value gets rendered as a date near 1970. Independently confirmed already known and documented as a latent issue for a DIFFERENT symptom (tlog logging integration, design.md line ~793 / scheduler-core tasks.md Implementation Notes item #6) but nobody had connected it to the recording subsystem's user-facing 'started at' field before this report.",

Declared in core.h. Wired into scheduler.c's sched_init(), called once immediately after xce_sched_core_init() succeeds, before anything can observe xce_core_now(). Corrected the misleading 'degrades to real wall-clock time' doc comments in core.c and core.h to state the actual (monotonic-since-boot) behavior of the neutral default and point to the new function. Simulation mode and every core.c-including test fixture that constructs a bare core directly are unaffected (they never call the new function, so they keep the (0,0,1,1) neutral default or sim_set_virtual_clock()'s own anchors exactly as before).

"root_cause": "TWO stacked, independently-confirmed causes, both live-reproduced this session against a real controller+scheduler+xcecd_virtual deployment (peers localhost:19991, worker-1):\n\n(A) FULLY ROOT-CAUSED AND FIXED -- a genuine heap-use-after-free crash, NOT the picker-resolve WARN (confirmed a red herring, per this entry's own prior analysis of xce_sched_core_load_snapshot()) and not purely a test-methodology gap. core_events.c's XCE_CORE_EVENT_RESVALS_FULL (line ~750) and XCE_CORE_EVENT_RESVALS_DELTA (line ~786) handlers did `zarray_put(&(zarray), idx, rv->val)` -- a SHALLOW store of the wire-decoded xce_val_t* pointer (confirmed via zarray_put_ex(), src/lib/zarray.c: `array->data[idx] = data[i]`, no copy). The zarray now owns that pointer and hands it to its killer (kill_sched_resval, schedobj.c) the next time that index is replaced. But driver.c's release_translated_payload() unconditionally frees the ENTIRE decoded ResValList/ResourceVal array (including that same rv->val) immediately after xce_core_push_events() returns, on EVERY drain, regardless of adoption. Result: the very next periodic resval report for the same worker+resource -- which happens every resource_sync interval (~1-15s) on literally any live deployment -- evicts the now-dangling first value via zarray_put(), crashing the scheduler with ASAN heap-use-after-free inside free_Value() (lib/controller.capnp.c:2898). Live-reproduced TWICE against a real deployment during this session's own repro attempts (first crash: PID 68752, silently lost because stderr went to /dev/null under start-scheduler.sh's nohup redirection; second crash, WITH stderr captured this time: PID 73919, full ASAN backtrace obtained -- xce_core_push_events -> zarray_put -> kill_sched_resval -> free_Value, use-after-free on a pointer release_translated_payload had freed one drain earlier). This exact hazard had ALREADY been noticed and explicitly documented as a 'PRE-EXISTING production ownership characteristic' in test_driver_translate.c's own test comment (task 5.1) but never fixed, because that test's kill_sched_resval is a no-op stub (its own comment wrongly generalizes 'fixtures are never torn down so these killers are never invoked' -- true for the OTHER kvmgr datakillers which fire only on core teardown, but NOT true for a zarray's killer, which fires on every REPLACEMENT of an occupied slot, not just teardown -- that blind spot is exactly why no existing test caught this). This crash means a live deployment's scheduler process is a near-certain crash within one or two resval-report cycles of any real session, corrupting/truncating whatever recording was in progress -- the practical dominant explanation for why a `.replay` file recorded from a real live session so often ends up missing jobs the operator knows were submitted.\n\n(B) CONFIRMED BY DESIGN, NOT A DEFECT (bug-1569 precedent, re-verified live this session after A's fix) -- once the crash was fixed, a full clean recording session was captured live: submitted 3 jobs via xce_test while `xceadmin scheduler record start` was active, waited for real DISPATCH decisions, `xceadmin scheduler record stop`, then `xceadmin scheduler dump`. The dump showed the SnapshotEntry (initial) genuinely reflecting whatever core state existed at the exact instant `record start` was issued (6 pre-existing jobs in this session's case, since jobs from an earlier test batch were still live) -- ReplayEvents (jobsPush/jobUpdate/resvalsDelta) for state that changed AFTER that instant correctly appear later in the stream, and only become visible in the REPL after `step`/`continue` (querying `info jobs`/`info summary` immediately after `[sim] ready.`, as the user's own transcript shows, only ever shows the starting snapshot's baseline -- exactly bug-1569's own prior finding for resvals, now confirmed to apply identically to job counts). Live-confirmed via `step N`: job count correctly grew from 6 to 9 once the REPL stepped past the recorded jobsPush/dispatch events, with correct per-job states (RUN/PEND) matching xce_test's live joblist at that exact point. The REAL underlying operator-facing gap this session's own analysis (and tasks.md's task-9.3 review note) already flagged: `--record-snapshot-interval` had NO CLI wiring anywhere in main.c, even though the struct field (xce_scheduler_t.record_snapshot_interval) and its consumption logic (recording_events.c's sched_record_write_events(), task 9.3) were already fully implemented and unit-tested -- so an operator had no way to ever get a periodically-refreshed starting snapshot; a `.replay` file with no periodic checkpointing legitimately has exactly ONE SnapshotEntry (written at `record start` time), and the REPL correctly starting from that baseline is expected behavior, not a bug.",
"fix": "(A) FIXED -- core_events.c's RESVALS_FULL/RESVALS_DELTA handlers now `dup_val(rv->val)` before `zarray_put()` (both call sites), matching the deep-copy-before-adopt convention this codebase already established for the identical hazard on the snapshot-load side (snapshot_load.c: `zarray_put(&(core->sharedInst), r->idx, dup_val(rv->val))` / `zarray_put(&(w->resvals), r->idx, dup_val(nv->val))`). `dup_val` (defined in snapshot_wire.c) is now also `extern`-declared and consumed by core_events.c. TDD: new src/scheduler/testsuite/test_resval_ownership.c (2 tests, wired into meson.build as 'scheduler resval ownership test') white-box-includes core.c/core_clock.c/core_events.c/driver.c with a REAL (non-stubbed) kill_sched_resval (schedobj.c's implementation verbatim) plus a real dup_val reimplementation -- RED confirmed the exact live ASAN backtrace (heap-use-after-free in free_Value via zarray_put's eviction path) on the pre-fix code; GREEN after the fix, with an added assertion the evicted-and-replaced resval reads back correctly (no data corruption, not just 'didn't crash'). The other 5 pre-existing white-box test files that #include core_events.c (test_core_events.c, test_core_full_cycle.c, test_driver_decision_cb.c, test_driver_session_ordering.c, test_driver_translate.c) each needed a small real dup_val reimplementation added (link-satisfying, same 'reimplement the one small function' idiom as their existing sched_resolve_job_picker copies) since core_events.c now references it; test_driver_translate.c's own `test_drain_translates_and_pushes_all_ten_op_types` additionally needed its full_val/delta_val fixtures to set `->which = XCE_VAL_NUMERIC` explicitly (a bare calloc() leaves `which` at 0 == XCE_VAL_STRING, which dup_val() now actually inspects -- exposed a latent test-fixture gap, not a production bug) and its stale 'PRE-EXISTING production ownership characteristic ... unsafe to dereference' comment was corrected to reflect the fix. Live-reproduced end-to-end post-fix: restarted the scheduler against the same live deployment, let 22+ periodic resval cycles for the same worker+resource pass with zero crash (previously guaranteed to crash on the 2nd cycle), then ran a full record-start/submit-jobs/record-stop/dump/REPL-step cycle cleanly. Full scheduler suite green (41/42, only bug-1560 unrelated). (B) FIXED -- `--record-snapshot-interval N` is now a real CLI flag on main.c's argp table (OPT_RECORD_SNAPSHOT_INTERVAL=262), mirroring `--record-dir`'s exact pattern: parsed with the same strtoull()+validation shape --sim-speed already uses, assigned to `sched.record_snapshot_interval` right alongside `sched.record_dir`. No dedicated unit test was added (main.c defines its own `main()`, so it cannot be white-box #included into a test TU without a symbol collision, and this codebase's own precedent -- --record-dir itself -- has zero dedicated unit test either, relying on code review + the consumption side's existing coverage); verified instead via a genuine live E2E run: restarted the scheduler with `--record-snapshot-interval 3`, submitted 5 jobs across a record start/stop cycle, and confirmed via `xceadmin scheduler dump` that THREE periodic 'SnapshotEntry (checkpoint)' entries now appear mid-stream (previously only ever one, at record-start), each fully populated (14 jobs) -- then loaded the file via `-i -s FILE` and confirmed `[sim] ready.` now shows all 14 jobs immediately, with zero stepping required. Also added a one-line repl_print_banner() clarification (repl.c): '[sim] (jobs above reflect this snapshot only -- step/continue to replay later events)', printed between the loaded-snapshot line and the ready-prompt line -- verified this doesn't break test_repl_execution_control.c's own banner assertion (a strstr() substring/ordering check, unaffected by an inserted line).",

This directly corroborates bug-1569 thread A's own prior, independent live finding on this exact question (already in this buglog, closed): 'step N in the REPL ... mem=16786444288.00, r1m=0.64, r15m=0.99, r15s=0.64, ut=2.08, pg=463.20, it=3341.19, tmp=65732259840.00 -- all correct; ls/swp/io legitimately 0 on this idle sandbox' -- using this SAME xcecd_virtual binary. This session's own bug-1585 live repro work independently reconfirmed it fresh, twice: (1) the scheduler log during the bug-1585 deployment showed genuinely non-zero periodic resvals flowing from worker-1 (xcecd_virtual) -- e.g. 'resval applied host=worker-1 resource=mem value=19967893504.000000', 'resource=r15s value=4.610000', 'resource=tmp value=801655111680.000000', 'resource=it value=5739.550000'; (2) after fixing bug-1585 and loading a periodic-checkpoint snapshot via the REPL, 'info worker worker-1' showed mem=18382995456.00, r1m=4.93, r15m=5.73, r15s=4.93, ut=24.26, pg=1413.87, it=5768.14, tmp=797803061248.00 -- all real, plausible non-zero values; only ls/swp/io read 0.00, exactly matching bug-1569's own 'legitimately 0 on this idle sandbox' explanation (no logged-in users in utmp, no swap configured, negligible disk I/O delta in a short idle window -- not a bug, a correct reading of an idle/minimal sandbox). CONCLUSION: the user's reported all-zero values were almost certainly the SAME REPL-query-before-step/continue methodology gap bug-1569 already root-caused and bug-1585 (this session) re-confirmed and fixed the recording-side half of -- NOT a virtual-vs-real xcecd distinction. xcecd_virtual is not designed to stub/mock these 10 metrics; it collects them for real, identically to production xcecd.",

If a live real-vs-virtual xcecd comparison is still wanted for extra certainty, it requires fixing this sandbox's `sudo`/PAM configuration first (out of scope for a code-level investigation) -- but given resource_sync.c/node_information.c have zero VIRTUAL_CLUSTER branching and every getter is a genuine unconditional /proc or utmp read, a real xcecd would be expected to read the SAME live host counters xcecd_virtual already does (same process, same kernel, same /proc), just without the artificial worker-name/slot-count synthesis xcecd_virtual's OTHER (unrelated) code paths add. No further action recommended unless a NEW live report of persistently-zero values is seen AFTER confirming step/continue was used correctly.",

User's own hypothesis: may be related to the worker running in 'virtual host mode' (xcecd_virtual) rather than a real xcecd worker.",
"file": "src/worker/src/xcecd_dbus_manager.c (dbus_workers_update() -- THE fix), src/worker/src/main.c (confirms master_job_status_callback/ipc_master path is UNREACHABLE for xcecd_virtual -- and for real xcecd too), src/worker/testsuite/test_dbus_workers_update.c (new regression test), src/controller/job.c (on_job_start/dispatch_a_job_ -- read/traced, confirmed innocent, not touched)",
"root_cause": "CONFIRMED via source trace + live reproduction (both hypotheses from the prior static-reading pass were REFUTED). (1) Code path: worker/meson.build shows xcecd_virtual == xcecd_srcs + main.c, built with -DVIRTUAL_CLUSTER -DDBUS_MANAGER -- and the REAL xcecd target uses the SAME xcecd_srcs + main.c with -DDBUS_MANAGER only. Because DBUS_MANAGER is defined for BOTH binaries, main.c's run loop (`#ifndef DBUS_MANAGER worker_process_update(...) #else dbus_workers_update(...) #endif`, main.c:603-616) ALWAYS takes the dbus_workers_update() branch for both -- process_worker_manager.c's worker_process_update() (the 'looks less obviously broken' alternative flagged in the original hypothesis) is dead code, never called, in either build. Separately, ipc_master_init() is `#ifndef VIRTUAL_CLUSTER`-gated (main.c:571-579) so for xcecd_virtual no IPC-master unix-socket listener is ever created; master_job_status_callback() (main.c:163) and the single global `static xcecd_job_t job` (main.c:32) are therefore UNREACHABLE for xcecd_virtual (no forked job-runner ever connects to report MSG_JOB_STATUS over that socket) -- the original hypothesis about a missing `job.job_id = job_status->job_id` assignment there was investigating dead code for this deployment shape; it may still be a latent issue for a REAL xcecd with genuinely concurrent forked job-runners, but is NOT bug-1589's cause and was not touched. (2) Real root cause: dbus_workers_update() (xcecd_dbus_manager.c:178, called from main.c's run loop every ~10ms) iterates xcecd_ctx.worker_list -- one xcecd_worker_t node per concurrently-dispatched job -- with `xcecd_worker_t* worker = *worker_list; while (worker) { ... worker = worker->next; }`. Several branches inside the loop body used a bare `continue` that re-tests the SAME `worker` pointer instead of advancing (the VIRTUAL_CLUSTER JOB_STARTING->JOB_RUNNING branch, xcecd_dbus_manager.c:201 pre-fix; the exit_code==0 and exit_code<0 VIRTUAL_CLUSTER completion-check branches, pre-fix lines 241/268; the real-mode 'job done but running not received' branch, pre-fix line 291) -- and worse, the WORKER_DONE/WORKER_EXITED early check (xcecd_dbus_manager.c:205-209 pre-fix) did `worker = worker->next; return true;`, which ABORTED THE ENTIRE FUNCTION the moment ANY worker in the list was already finished, discarding the scan of every worker queued behind it (also a latent bug: `return true` == `return 1` == XCECD_ERROR on a function whose only real caller only special-cases XCECD_DB_ERROR, so this wasn't even surfaced as an error). Net effect on a job array: once dbus_workers_update() started making progress on the HEAD of xcecd_ctx.worker_list (element [0], first added via add_worker()), every OTHER concurrently-dispatched element ([1]-[4]) was starved of update_worker_status() -- the function that fires xcecd_reply_startjob() i.e. the on_job_start report -- for as long as element [0] stayed un-reaped from the list (which for a long-running job is indefinite, matching the user's 'never, in either log file' observation for a job array of `sleep N`-style long jobs; for short/instant jobs the same bug still starves [1]-[4] but only for the ~10ms tick until cleanup_worker_list() reaps the finished head and the next element becomes head in turn). This is a WORKER-side bug only -- the controller's on_job_start()/record_job_start_fact() (job.c:1665-1663) and its job_state_is_backward() guard (job.c:43) were traced and confirmed to correctly key everything by jobid with no cross-job interference; they simply never received a report for [1]-[4] because the worker never sent one.",
"fix": "FIXED. xcecd_dbus_manager.c's dbus_workers_update(): capture `xcecd_worker_t* next = worker->next;` once at the top of every loop iteration (right after `while (worker) {`), and changed every early-exit path in the loop body to `worker = next; continue;` instead of a bare `continue` (re-tests the same node forever) or the old `worker->worker_status == WORKER_DONE/WORKER_EXITED` branch's `return true` (aborted the whole scan on the first finished worker). This fixes traversal for BOTH VIRTUAL_CLUSTER and real (non-VIRTUAL_CLUSTER) branches of the function -- the real-mode `kill(pid,0)!=0` / 'job done but running not received' branch had the identical bare-continue bug and would starve a real xcecd's worker_list the same way under concurrent dispatch. No change to the state-machine logic itself (update_worker_status(), check_worker_sleep_time_elapsed(), the systemd dbus_is_worker_active()/get_systemd_job_exit_code() calls) -- purely a traversal/control-flow fix, matching the 'minimal, correct, no symptom-papering' guidance; considered and rejected converting worker_list to a per-jobid array (process_manager.c's processes[] precedent) since the linked list itself was never the problem, only its traversal. TDD: new src/worker/testsuite/test_dbus_workers_update.c (2 tests, white-box #includes xcecd_dbus_manager.c with -DVIRTUAL_CLUSTER -DDBUS_MANAGER matching xcecd_virtual's real build flags, stubs update_worker_status()/is_systemd_job_active()/get_systemd_job_exit_code()/stop_systemd_job()/make_job_sd_unit_name()/start_systemd_job()/get_systemd_job_pid()/check_worker_sleep_time_elapsed() to isolate the loop's own control flow) wired into src/worker/testsuite/meson.build. RED-verified live: `git stash push -- src/worker/src/xcecd_dbus_manager.c`, rebuild, both tests FAIL ('Expected 0 Was 1' -- the started-call-seen assertions correctly detect elements [1]-[4] never receiving their start transition, and a DONE head worker correctly blocks the scan); `git stash pop`, rebuild, both tests PASS (GREEN). Live end-to-end proof (not just the unit test): deployed a fresh 3-controller + scheduler + xcecd_virtual cluster (/xce-deploy-ha pattern, dedicated dir /tmp/xce-deploy-bug1589), submitted `jobsub -u rshen -q normal -c \"sleep 300\" -a 5` (5-element array, rshen used specifically to avoid limits.yaml's 'limit1' 3-slot cap on all-users-except-rshen, matching the user's original unconstrained-concurrency scenario) -- ctrl-1.log showed `dispatch_a_job_` AND `on_job_start` for ALL FIVE elements [0]-[4] (previously only [0] would ever show on_job_start), scheduler.log showed `limit_job_election` for all 5 (as it already did pre-fix), a follow-up `joblist` showed all 5 elements in state RUN, and xcecd-worker-1.log showed the `Job ID <id> running - sending status to controller` line (the exact xcecd_reply_startjob trigger) for 5 DISTINCT job ids within milliseconds of each other. Cluster torn down after capturing evidence (self-started, self-stopped, per boundaries). Note: this repro session also observed pre-existing, unrelated 'Failed to connect to system bus' ERROR spam from dbus_is_worker_active()/get_systemd_job_exit_code() polling every ~10ms per still-running virtual job (expected -- no real dbus session in this sandbox, and VIRTUAL_CLUSTER never creates a real systemd unit to poll in the first place) -- cosmetic log noise, not a correctness bug, pre-existing before this fix and unrelated to bug-1589's actual defect; flagged here for visibility, NOT fixed (out of this bug's scope). Also flagged, NOT fixed (out of scope, no buglog entry created per explicit task boundary): dbus_worker_clean() (xcecd_dbus_manager.c) has an apparently-inverted `#ifndef VIRTUAL_CLUSTER return true;` guard -- as written, the REAL (non-virtual) xcecd never actually runs its own systemd-unit cleanup body, while VIRTUAL_CLUSTER mode does (but finds nothing to clean, since no real unit ever existed) -- looks backwards from the evident intent, worth a separate look. Full suite after fix: worker 4/4 GREEN (resource_sync, xcecd_startup_order, dbus_workers_update, controller_connector). Controller 1101/1104 (3 unrelated FAILs in test_config_repl.c -- config version trimming/tag lookup/marker supersession, a file this fix never touches and that was confirmed clean/unmodified by this session; controller/ was not touched at all by this fix). Scheduler: bug-1560's known symlink-escape failure (expected, unrelated) plus 3 NEW failures in test_sim_verify.c/test_repl_breakpoints_inspection.c -- traced via `git status` to src/scheduler/src/driver.c and src/scheduler/src/recording_session.c being concurrently modified, uncommitted, by ANOTHER session's in-flight work in this shared worktree (unrelated 'bug-1591' job.c/driver.c changes observed mid-flight during this session's builds) -- outside this bug's boundary (scheduler/core files are explicitly off-limits for this task) and not caused by this worker-only fix; not investigated further.",

Comment at line 324-328 references bug-1568 (a DIFFERENT, already-fixed bug about comparing against the wrong enum) but bug-1568's fix never added string/bool handling -- it only made the numeric case correct.\n(2) Same defect, `repl_info_resource_one()` (repl_info.c:436-444, `info resource <name>`): the total/available aggregation loop only accumulates when `->which == Value_u_fvalue` (correctly guarded, no UB) -- but silently EXCLUDES string/bool resources from the sum entirely, so `info resource type`/`info resource model` would also show `total=0.00 available=0.00` despite `valtype=string` being correctly labeled two lines below it (line 489-495) -- an internally inconsistent-looking display (correct type label, wrong/misleading value).\n(3) Related, narrower gap in scheduler logging -- `core_events.c`'s bug-1573 fix (~838-861, the 'resval applied host=... resource=... value=...' TRACE line) DOES correctly branch Value_u_svalue -> '%s' vs Value_u_fvalue -> '%f', but its own comment self-documents that Value_u_bvalue (boolean) is 'silently skipped here rather than guessed at' -- confirmed still true as of this reading: no case handles Value_u_bvalue, so a boolean resource update produces NO trace line at all (silent omission, not a wrong value, but incomplete visibility for exactly the resource kind the user flagged).\n(4) Minor/lower severity, controller-side -- `worker.c` (~107-119) has an `else` branch for non-fvalue that logs `which=%d (non-numeric)` (informative about the presence of a non-numeric update, but never decodes/prints the actual string or boolean value); `dataex.c` (~86-90) has NO else branch at all -- silently skips the TRACE entirely for any non-fvalue resource, weakest visibility of the four sites but least user-facing (debug-level TRACE only).\n\nPOSITIVE finding, scoped this from being a systemic whole-stack issue: the Go apiserver's `cNameValToWorkerResval()` (`src/frontend/apiserver/backend/convert.go:325-370`) is a CORRECT, COMPLETE reference implementation -- it switches on all 7 `Value_u_which` wire tags (ivalue32/ivalue64/uvalue32/uvalue64/fvalue all -> NUMERIC/`NumericValue`, svalue -> STRING/`StringValue`, bvalue -> BOOLEAN/`BooleanValue`, matching `models.ResourceDistributionInfo`'s already-correctly-typed fields, `src/frontend/apiserver/models/resources.go:118-126`), plus a `default:` WARN log for any unrecognized tag. `src/frontend/xcecli/models/resource.go`'s `ResourceValue.UnmarshalJSON()` (client-side) also correctly handles string/bool/numeric JSON values. So the production REST API (apiserver) and `xcecli` CLI resource-value display path are NOT affected -- this bug is confined to the scheduler's own C-side simulation-debugging REPL (`repl_info.c`, the user-facing symptom) and a handful of C-side TRACE/debug log call sites in the scheduler/controller (lower severity, debug-visibility-only gaps).",
"fix": "Fixed. src/scheduler/src/repl_info.c: repl_info_worker_one() (`info worker <name>|all`) now switches on the resval's real Value_u_which wire tag -- Value_u_svalue prints `resource <name>: value=<string>`, Value_u_bvalue prints `resource <name>: value=true|false`, Value_u_fvalue keeps the existing `total=%.2f available=%.2f` numeric display unchanged. repl_info_resource_one() (`info resource <name>`) got the analogous fix one layer up: the per-worker aggregation loop now tracks the first-seen string/boolean value (in addition to the existing numeric total/available sum), and the final print branches on the resource DEFINITION's authoritative `r->valtype` (XCE_VAL_STRING/XCE_VAL_BOOLEAN/XCE_VAL_NUMERIC, xce/types.h) to decide which of `value=<v>` (with a 'reported by N worker(s)' count) vs. the numeric total/available pair to print -- total/available is a consumable-quantity concept that is only meaningful for a numeric resource, so a string/boolean resource no longer gets a fabricated total=0.00/available=0.00 pair at all. TDD: added test_info_worker_reports_string_and_boolean_resource_values and test_info_resource_reports_string_value to test_repl_breakpoints_inspection.c, both constructing a real WORKERS_PUSH event with a string- and boolean-valued resource through the actual xce_core_push_events() path (same fixture idiom the existing bug-1568 numeric-resource test already established), asserting the new `value=` lines appear and no `total=` line is ever emitted for a non-numeric resource. Verified via a full non-incremental /xce-build scheduler asan run (fresh wipe+reconfigure, not reusing any cached object): zero compiler errors, both new tests confirmed PASS in testlog.txt, full suite Ok:41/Fail:1 out of 42 -- the sole failure is the pre-existing unrelated bug-1560 (test_admin_request's symlink-escape test). core_events.c's separately-noted boolean-TRACE gap (item 3 in this entry's root_cause) and worker.c/dataex.c's non-numeric TRACE decode gaps (item 4) were NOT touched -- left as documented, lower-priority follow-ups, not part of this fix's scope.",

This intentionally changed observable REPL/--sim/--sim-verify output text, which broke 5 test binaries' assertions that hardcoded the OLD raw-numeric jobid format (e.g. `strstr(captured, \"jobid=4242\")`); updated all affected assertions in test_sim_alt_events.c, test_repl_execution_control.c, test_sim_event_loop.c, test_sim_verify.c, and test_repl_breakpoints_inspection.c to compute their expected marker strings dynamically via fmt_jobid() too, matching the existing precedent already used in src/controller/testsuite/test.c. Verified via two /xce-build scheduler asan --incremental runs: first run caught a genuine test regression (5 unexpected failures, all traced to the hardcoded-format issue above, not a production bug); after the test fixes, final run is Ok:41/Fail:1 out of 42 -- all 10 affected tests confirmed individually passing, the only remaining failure is the pre-existing unrelated bug-1560 (test_admin_request's symlink-escape test). One build-tooling wrinkle encountered along the way (not a code bug): an --incremental ninja run once silently skipped recompiling one changed test object, giving a stale Ok:40/Fail:2 result until the object was force-rebuilt -- worth a non-incremental rebuild if an --incremental result ever looks surprising.",

"fix": "Changed the fixture from stack-local to `static xce_sched_sim_driver_t sim;` storage in three places: test_run_processes_multiple_sessions_in_order_and_no_longer_returns_enosys(), test_run_deactivates_tlog_virtual_clock_logging_on_completion() (the test that first exposed it), and the run_sim_and_capture_stdout() helper (used once, by test_job_present_only_in_initial_snapshot_still_reaches_the_picker()). Safe specifically because: (a) sched_sim_driver_start() unconditionally memset()s the whole struct as its first action, so no stale-data leak across runs; (b) each affected function is called exactly once per test-binary process (verified via grep, no re-entrancy), so no second call's memset can ever stomp a still-live zombie thread's cbuf mutex/condvar state from a first call -- static would be UNSAFE on a helper called more than once while an earlier zombie thread might still be alive. Does NOT fix the underlying thread-lifecycle gap (still no join/cancel) -- that is a separate, larger, already-documented-as-deferred architectural item (a real sim-driver teardown/fini function). Verified via 2 independent direct runs of the rebuilt sched_sim_event_loop_test binary post-fix: 4 Tests, 0 Failures, clean exit code 0 both times, no ASAN abort.",

Calling free() on it is undefined behavior -> heap corruption, surfacing later as glibc/ASAN bad-free aborts on unrelated allocations. group_killer() (same file) already released the identical field correctly via dereference(). The buggy FREEUP() path is hit on every config re-push for a group with existing members (e.g. controller failover retrying a config push), which explains the crash correlating with the 3-attempt xcecli_retry_next() failover loop even though no thread concurrency is required to trigger it.",

NOTE: a separate, related latent issue was also found but NOT fixed here (out of scope, no concurrency needed to explain the observed crash) - the entire existing-group update branch in makeGroup() only takes RTTI_LOCK_READ (a genuine shared pthread_rwlock_rdlock) while mutating shared group state, and sched_init_config()/plugin_config_update() (the config-push handler chain) hold no serializing lock at all, so two vtask worker threads (scheduler runs a 4-vcpu pool) could in principle race on the same group concurrently -- most plausibly triggered by xce_ctx_reconnect() reusing the same endpoint struct and endpoint_init() resetting ep->busy=0 before an already-dispatched handler finishes.

"fix": "repl_print_event_summary() now prefixes each echoed event with \"[sim] t=<ns> (<human>) session=<N>\". Non-obvious correctness point found via sim_loop.c inspection (not assumption): events are read+echoed individually AS THEY STREAM from the file, and the ReplaySession/begin_round message for that batch -- which is what increments rs->session_count via xce_repl_on_begin_round() -- comes AFTER those events in file order (file layout is event,event,...,ReplaySession). So every echoed event always belongs to the UPCOMING session; the function reports session_count+1, not the raw count. A first attempt using the raw count failed its own new test (session=0 instead of session=1) and was corrected after tracing the real sim_loop.c call order (xce_repl_check_event at line ~593 vs xce_repl_check_begin_round at ~631) rather than trusting the repl.h doc comment's summary.\n\nAdded sim_prescan_session_count() (sim.c): scans sim->replay_file from the current position using msg_root_has_shape() shape-only classification (ReplayEvent/ReplaySession/SnapshotEntry, matching sim_loop.c main loop's own three-way dispatch) to count ReplaySession messages, then rewinds via fseek back to the captured ftell() position -- mirrors sim_locate_and_load_snapshot()'s own established rewind pattern. Confirmed safe via research: capn_init_fp() in this codebase is always unpacked (packed=0), reading via a single plain fread() per message with no internal read-ahead buffer, so ftell/fseek stay exactly in sync with message boundaries. Wired into sched_sim_driver_start() right after sim_set_virtual_clock(): prints \"[sim] replay file contains N sessions\" once at load, non-fatal on scan failure. User explicitly chose this pre-scan approach over a recording-time trailer message (would have required a schema change and only worked for newly-recorded files) via AskUserQuestion.\n\nAdded test_replay_load_reports_total_session_count (2-session fixture) and extended test_step_echoes_events_before_session_decisions with t=/session=1 assertions in test_repl_breakpoints_inspection.c.

Not caused by the concurrent main.c/testsuite/test.c argp_program_version diff (those files are unrelated to config_repl.c/capnp).

Plausible, benign explanation: in --sim/-s REPLAY mode, jobs already resolved (dispatched) in the ORIGINAL recorded run may be replayed purely as state deltas (JOB_UPDATE/JOB_RUSAGE) without the live picker/allocator re-deriving a fresh XCE_DECISION_DISPATCH -- only jobs still outstanding (PEND) get freshly re-decided every round, which is why PEND is the only decision op ever observed. Unconfirmed against sim_loop.c's actual replay-vs-live-decide branching; needs a source read of how sim_loop.c distinguishes replayed-decision playback from freshly-computed decisions before concluding this is 'working as designed' vs a real visibility gap.",
"fix": "Not yet fixed. If confirmed benign (dispatch legitimately has no fresh decision object in replay mode), the round-summary rollup being designed for bug-1609/1610 should not label its dispatch count misleadingly (a permanent 'X dispatch' column reading 0 for an entire replay looks like a bug even when it isn't) -- consider deriving a running-job delta from info-jobs-equivalent state instead of the decision tally for replay-mode display. If NOT benign (a real decision-visibility gap), this is a separate, more serious finding than the formatting issues in bug-1609/1610.\n\n--- STATUS UPDATE 2026-08-24 (xce-audit-invariants scheduler audit) ---\n\nRoot cause confirmed and the literal mechanism is now built: sim_reconcile_unaccounted_jobs() (sim_loop.c:566-709, landed via scheduler-sim-decision-parity tasks 2.1-3, 2026-08-22) reconstructs and reports a decision for a RUN-state job whose DISPATCH decision was only in the recorded replay stream. BUT its trigger gate (sim_loop.c:592) requires JOB_IS_RUN(job->state) before searching, and the search only scans the CURRENT round's decoded_session (decoded fresh at sim_loop.c:871, freed at line 999 -- no cross-round persistence). So reconciliation only fires when a job's DISPATCH decision and its RUN confirmation land in the exact same replay round. This bug's own original scenario (dispatch at round 32, RUN confirmation through round 107) never matches -- the round-32 DISPATCH decision is gone by the time the job reaches RUN state. The scheduler-sim-decision-parity spec's own task 4.3 implementation notes explicitly acknowledge this residual does NOT fix bug-1611's dominant real-world manifestation. A follow-up spec already exists for this exact residual: .kiro/specs/scheduler-sim-eager-reconciliation/ (created 2026-08-22, phase=requirements-generated, ready_for_implementation=false -- design/tasks not yet generated). Its diagnosis: decouple allocation CAPTURE from the JOB_IS_RUN gate (capture as soon as a DISPATCH decision is seen for a job with job->accounts == NULL, regardless of state), leaving sched_account_jobs()'s existing JOB_IS_RUN + job->accounts != NULL gate to keep deferring actual charging until state transitions to RUN. Fix location: sim_reconcile_unaccounted_jobs() (sim_loop.c:566-709), trigger gate at line 592, plus its ownership-transfer logic (609-693) needs a double-capture guard since capture would no longer imply state==RUN. Do NOT fix inline as a drive-by patch per scheduler-driver-equivalence.md's testing discipline -- promote scheduler-sim-eager-reconciliation to design/tasks instead.\n\n--- STATUS UPDATE 2026-08-27 (scheduler-sim-eager-reconciliation task 1.1) ---\n\nCore production fix landed: sim_reconcile_unaccounted_jobs() trigger gate (sim_loop.c:592) had !JOB_IS_RUN(job->state) removed, leaving job->accounts == NULL as the sole capture-eligibility gate -- exactly the diagnosis from the 2026-08-24 status update. Match/capture/report mechanics (609-693) were confirmed already safe for early (pre-RUN) capture without changes (see scheduler-sim-eager-reconciliation/research.md's uncharge-safety research log -- sched_uncharge_account() has zero production callers, accounting is reset-and-resum not incremental, so no double-capture guard beyond the existing job->accounts != NULL check was needed). Old test test_reconcile_skips_non_run_state_job (which asserted the bug as correct behavior) replaced with test_reconcile_captures_non_run_state_job_when_dispatch_recorded (inverted expectation). RED/GREEN verified: new test failed under the old gate (job->allocs stayed NULL, confirmed via a real build+run before the fix), then passed after the one-line fix; full sched_sim_reconcile_unaccounted_test suite green (10/10, all prior regression tests unchanged). This is task 1.1 of the spec only -- task 1.2 (capture-safety unit coverage), task 2.1 (resInUse deferral integration test), and task 3.x (contention/--sim-verify/full-regression validation) are still pending before the spec itself is implementation-complete.",

Confirmed real, not a display bug.",
"file": "src/scheduler/src/sim_loop.c",
"root_cause": "sched_account_jobs() (scheduler.c:1255, exported via scheduler.h) is the ONLY mechanism that re-populates per-worker (w->resInUse) and shared (core->sharedInUse) resource-in-use accounting after each session's resval reset zeroes them (core.h's own doc comment on xce_core_begin_session()/xce_core_signal_go(): 'the picker thread must never observe a session whose resource-in-use accounting has been reset to zero ... but not yet re-summed from currently running jobs (sched_account_jobs())'). This obligation was split out (scheduler-core spec task 5.2) into xce_core_begin_session()+xce_core_signal_go() specifically so a driver can call sched_account_jobs() in between; the normal-mode driver does this correctly (driver.c:739-749, xce_sched_driver_run_normal_mode_round(): xce_core_begin_session() -> plugin_begin_session()+sched_account_jobs() -> xce_core_signal_go()). The simulation driver (sim_loop.c:680) was never migrated to this split -- it still calls the older monolithic xce_core_go() (core_session.c:402-409, itself now just xce_core_begin_session()+xce_core_signal_go() called back-to-back with zero interleaving slot), and sim_loop.c/sim.c/sim_verify.c/sim_record.c contain NO call to sched_account_jobs() anywhere (grep-confirmed). Consequently every session's resval reset in simulation/replay mode is never followed by re-accumulation, so w->resInUse/core->sharedInUse stay at their zero-initialized value for the entire run -- even a job freshly dispatched via sched_commit_decision()'s direct sched_charge_account() call (scheduler.c:1438-1443) would have that charge wiped by the very next session's reset with nothing to re-sum it. Broader concern (not yet verified): the live allocator thread's own capacity checks (sched_try_alloc_on_host_ -> sched_check_host_satisfy/sched_meet_host_selection, resource.c) may read w->resInUse to compute free capacity -- if so, the simulation driver could be scheduling against permanently-zero 'in use' data, i.e. believing full capacity is always available regardless of what is actually running, which would be a correctness risk for scheduler-core's documented normal-mode/sim-mode decision-equivalence invariant, not merely a REPL display cosmetic. This needs confirmation before being treated as proven.",
"fix": "Not yet fixed -- investigation only, per user request. Proposed direction: call sched_account_jobs(sched) in sim_loop.c's round loop, in the same relative position driver.c uses (after xce_core_begin_session()'s resval reset, before signaling the picker/allocator thread) -- likely requires migrating sim_loop.c from the monolithic xce_core_go() to the split xce_core_begin_session()+xce_core_signal_go() calls, mirroring xce_sched_driver_run_normal_mode_round()'s exact pattern (driver.c:739-749). Should be paired with confirming/refuting the broader allocator-capacity-check concern above before scoping a fix.\n\n--- CONFIRMED 2026-08-21 (scheduler-sim-decision-parity spec research) ---\n\nThe \"broader concern (not yet verified)\" above is CONFIRMED, not theoretical: `sched_check_host_satisfy_()`/`sched_check_shared_satisfy_()` (resource.c) read `w->resInUse`/`core->sharedInUse` directly as inputs to the live allocator's own per-host capacity check (`sched_try_alloc_on_host_`'s viability test). With `resInUse` permanently zero in sim/replay mode, simulation-mode capacity checks can systematically pass where normal-mode execution of the same recorded state would fail -- this is a scheduling-decision-correctness bug under resource contention, not merely a REPL display cosmetic.\n\nAlso determined to likely share one root cause with bug-1611 (see that entry): sim_loop.c decodes the recorded decision stream (`decoded_session->decisions`) every round but only ever uses it for optional `--sim-verify` comparison, never to reconstruct state (job->allocs/job->accounts) or report a decision for a job already resolved before the replay reaches it.\n\nThis is now elevated to an enforced steering invariant: `.kiro/steering/scheduler-driver-equivalence.md` (\"normal-mode and sim-mode must produce identical decisions AND identical resource-accounting state, not just a matching decision sequence\").\n\nA dedicated fix spec has been scoped (deliberately not folded into the closed scheduler-core spec or the narrower scheduler-sim-repl-verbosity spec): `.kiro/specs/scheduler-sim-decision-parity/` (requirements approved; design generated, not yet approved; tasks not yet generated -- next step is /kiro-validate-design or /kiro-spec-tasks). Chosen approach: reconstruct job->allocs/job->accounts for already-resolved RUN-state jobs from the recorded decision stream at the round-boundary accounting point, keyed/deduped on job->accounts == NULL (the same signal sched_account_jobs() already uses), and feed the reconstructed decision through the same on_decision/xce_repl_check_decision reporting path a fresh decision uses -- fixing bug-1613's accounting gap and bug-1611's decision-visibility gap as one change. See that spec's research.md for full architecture-option evaluation and risks (--sim-verify interaction, snapshot-restored jobs with no in-window recorded decision).\n\n--- PARTIAL FIX 2026-08-22 (scheduler-sim-decision-parity task 2.1) ---\n\nsim_loop.c's round boundary now calls the relocated sched_account_jobs(&(sim->core)) (core.h, task 1.1) in exactly the position driver.c uses: xce_core_go() replaced with the split xce_core_begin_session() -> [reconciliation insertion point, not yet built] -> sched_account_jobs() -> xce_core_signal_go() sequence. Proven via a new spy-based regression test (test_sim_session_ordering.c): 0 calls pre-fix (RED, matches this bug's own symptom exactly), 2 calls (one per replayed round) with core->session_active==1 post-fix (GREEN). Interactive and batch sim runs share this one call site (Req 5.1), no change to normal-mode behavior (Req 5.3) -- full scheduler suite 45/46 OK post-fix, only pre-existing unrelated bug-1560 fails.\n\nSTILL NOT FULLY OBSERVABLE END-TO-END: confirmed while implementing this task that job->accounts/job->allocs is ALWAYS NULL for every RUN-state job in sim mode today -- sim_picker_thread_fn() never emits a live DISPATCH (unconditionally PENDs every candidate), and sched_commit_decision() (the only function that ever sets job->accounts) is only ever called from scheduler.c's real sched_allocator() thread, which sim mode never runs. sched_account_jobs()'s round-boundary re-charge therefore has nothing to charge yet in isolation -- 'info worker' will still show used=0.00 until Recorded-Decision Reconciliation (scheduler-sim-decision-parity tasks 2.2-2.4, not yet implemented) populates job->accounts from the recorded decision stream. This task deliberately leaves a documented insertion point for that work (sim_loop.c comment, right before the sched_account_jobs() call) rather than building it now (out of task 2.1's own scope). Do not close this bug until tasks 2.2-2.4 land.\n\n--- CONFIRMED FIXED 2026-08-24 (xce-audit-invariants scheduler audit) ---\n\nscheduler-sim-decision-parity's remaining tasks (2.2-4.3) are now implementation-complete (spec.json phase=implementation-complete, updated_at 2026-08-22T13:10:00Z). sim_reconcile_unaccounted_jobs() (sim_loop.c:566-709) now searches each round's decoded replay decisions for RUN-state jobs with job->accounts == NULL, takes ownership of the matching DISPATCH allocation, builds job->accounts via make_job_account(), and feeds a reconstructed decision through the same reporting path a live decision uses -- called at sim_loop.c:948, immediately before sched_account_jobs() at line 950 (itself already relocated to take xce_sched_core_t* -- scheduler.c:1258 -- with no remaining signature mismatch against xce_sched_sim_driver_t). Live-verified: 'info worker' shows nonzero used= at multiple checkpoints (.wolf/memory.md line 3342). Full accounting-parity gap closed. Do not reopen for the same-round-only limitation -- that residual gap is bug-1611's concern, tracked separately (see bug-1611 and scheduler-sim-eager-reconciliation spec).",

BusyBox date supports absolute parsing (`date -d 2026-06-29 +%A` works, which is what masked the problem during initial probing) but has no GNU relative-expression support ('-7 days', 'last monday', '+5 days'). Because command substitution captures only stdout and BusyBox writes 'invalid date' to stderr, $START/$END come back as empty strings and the failure is invisible to a non -e script.

This is CORRECT for a job's very FIRST dispatch attempt: the job was never anything but PEND and allocs was never committed, so 'no reversal needed' (design.md's own 'Controller Dispatch Commit' state-model text: 'on RPC failure, state is untouched -- still PEND, never entered RUN, so no reversal is needed, per the Research Log finding') is vacuously true. That reasoning silently assumes the job has NEVER had a prior successful dispatch. It breaks the moment dispatch_a_job_() is called again on a job that previously succeeded (went RUN, committed allocs) and now fails retryably again -- exactly the scenario Requirement 4.3's own text ('consecutive... dispatch failures with no intervening successful dispatch') and task 3.1's own observable-completion criterion ('a job that fails, succeeds, then fails again is evaluated against the bound as if it had only failed once') explicitly anticipate. In that scenario job.state incorrectly stays RUN and job.allocs incorrectly stays committed across the retry, violating Requirement 4.1 ('the Scheduler and Controller shall return the job to a pending state') and Requirement 4.4 ('the Scheduler and Controller shall each release the resource-allocation and commitment data'). The terminal (bound-exceeded) resolution path is separately confirmed affected the same way: mark_job_fail()/apply_job_fail_transition() (job.c ~2303-2325) unconditionally sets job.state = JOB_STAT_EXIT (so the STATE outcome is correct on the terminal path) but never touches job.allocs either, so Requirement 4.5 is also affected on that path. Every existing retryable-failure test (test_dispatch_fail_retry.c's other three tests, test_rpc_failure_bounded_escalation's own 4-consecutive-failure test) only ever drives a job that starts and stays PEND with allocs always NULL throughout, so none of them could have caught this -- only a real intervening success (constructed by the new fail->succeed->fail scenario, scheduler-dispatch-commit task 5.2) exposes it. This is a design-level gap, not just an implementation oversight: design.md's own Controller Dispatch-Failure Classification / Controller Dispatch Commit sections both assert-by-omission that job.state/job.allocs need no reversal on any of the six failure paths, without qualifying that assertion to 'only true for a job's first-ever dispatch attempt'.",
"fix": "NOT YET FIXED. Discovered live while implementing scheduler-dispatch-commit task 5.2 (test-only task; the fix requires modifying src/controller/job.c, out of that task's test-only boundary -- reported as BLOCKED). Candidate fix: in each of the four retryable branches' 'resolved_retryable = true' case (still under the existing lock(j, RTTI_LOCK_WRITE)), add `j->job.state = JOB_STAT_PEND;` and release any committed j->job.allocs (free_JobAlloc_ptr(&j->job.allocs); j->job.allocs = NULL;) before unlock(j) -- mirroring, in reverse, what Controller Dispatch Commit's own success path (job.c ~1343-1372) does when transitioning PEND->RUN. Needs a design-review pass first: design.md's 'Controller Dispatch-Failure Classification' and 'Controller Dispatch Commit' sections both need their state-model text corrected to no longer claim the failure paths need no reversal unconditionally. UPDATE (2026-08-23, task 5.2 completion): a kiro-debug investigation (HIGH confidence, independently re-verified even more exhaustively by task 5.2's own reviewer via a full trace of every pendJobs-reinsertion and controller-side state-mutation call site) confirmed this scenario is genuinely UNREACHABLE via any real caller in the current, fully-implemented system -- the scheduler's picker permanently removes a job from its PEND candidate pool the instant it dispatches it (task 2.1), and nothing already-implemented ever re-adds a successfully-dispatched (RUN) job back to that pool. Only the not-yet-implemented scheduler-preemption spec (confirmed still requirements-generated, no approvals) could someday create that path. Per that finding, the COMMITTED version of test_rpc_failure_bound_resets_after_intervening_success (src/controller/testsuite/test_dispatch_fail_retry.c, commit 16d90319) deliberately does NOT assert the job.state/job.allocs reversal described above -- it keeps only the Req 4.3 counter-reset assertions (which are correct and GREEN). There is no live RED test for this bug today; it remains an intentionally-deferred, documented gap to revisit once scheduler-preemption (or an equivalent mechanism) actually creates a reachable RUN-then-retryable-redispatch path -- not before.",

So a worker that joins under its own hostname never receives a HostConfig push under that literal name, `store.Hosts.Get()` misses, OnHostConfigUpdated returns early, and MaxSlot is left at Go's zero-value (0) forever -- completely decoupled from the value actually used for scheduling. The C-side path is correct: worker.c's apply_join_state()/find_matched_hostconfig() falls back to the 'default' wildcard entry's mxj/maxcpus for real dispatch decisions, confirmed via a live controller log line showing the correct slots=22 resource value.

CONFIRMED LIVE on branch scheduler-framework, corrected finding: an earlier verification pass on this same issue (2026-08-24, same session) restarted only controller+scheduler+worker and left the apiserver running, and did NOT reproduce the symptom -- that was a false negative, caused by the still-running apiserver simply continuing to display its stale-but-correct in-memory job cache from before the restart, never refreshed. Repeating the test with the apiserver ALSO restarted (matching the original report's \"restart all daemons\" exactly) reproduces the bug immediately and durably: 3 RUN jobs with EXEC_HOST=1*worker-1 before the restart; killed all 4 daemons; ran start-all.sh; EXEC_HOST was blank on every poll (15 polls over 30s, first poll ~6s after apiserver came back up) while STATUS stayed correctly RUN throughout. Controller log corroborates the mechanism: ctrl-1.log's recovery trace shows apply_job_update_transition logging 'duplicate UPDATE to state 0x2 -- no-op' for every job during WAL replay -- consistent with the WAL_JOB_DISPATCH fact applying SILENTLY first (PEND->RUN, no log line on the APPLIED path), immediately followed by each job's WAL_JOB_START fact (worker-confirmed start, also state=RUN) correctly detecting the now-redundant transition and logging the no-op. Neither replay step ever touches job.allocs.",
"file": "src/controller/job.c:1369-1370, src/controller/persist.c:3708-3757, src/controller/job.c:288-351 (restore_job), src/controller/persist.c:6690-6713 (persist_submit_job_fact)",
"root_cause": "dispatch_a_job_() (job.c:1343-1372) sets j->job.allocs directly in memory (lines 1346-1353, the host/resource assignment the scheduler decided) and transitions j->job.state = JOB_STAT_RUN (line 1355), but the durable record of this transition -- persist_submit_job_fact(&c->persist, WAL_JOB_DISPATCH, alloc->jobid, JOB_STAT_RUN) at line 1369-1370 -- only carries {jobid, state} (persist_submit_job_fact()'s own signature, persist.c:6690-6694, has no allocation parameter at all; its payload type wal_jobstate_t is exactly {jobid, state}). The resource allocation itself is never written to the WAL anywhere. On a full-process restart, job objects are reconstructed purely from replay: restore_job() (job.c:288-351) decodes a job's ONLY WAL_JOB_SUBMIT entry (written at initial submission, strictly before dispatch -- confirmed via persist_job_hook_fun's own comment that WAL_JOB_SUBMIT durability is written once, before any job object exists -- so its capnp payload's allocs field is genuinely empty/NULL at encode time). apply_committed_entry()'s WAL_JOB_DISPATCH case (persist.c:3708-3757) then replays the dispatch fact via apply_job_update_transition(), which by explicit design and its own doc comment 'only ever touches state' -- job->job.allocs is never set anywhere in the replay path. Result: after restart, job.state is correctly RUN (both WAL_JOB_DISPATCH and the later WAL_JOB_START fact carry state=RUN and replay correctly) but job.allocs is permanently NULL for the remaining life of that job -- nothing ever re-derives it, since scheduler-dispatch-commit's design treats a job's dispatch as a one-time PEND->RUN event with no re-dispatch/re-reconciliation path for an already-RUN job (see bug-1631's confirmation that no live caller ever re-adds a RUN job back to the scheduler's dispatch pool). EXEC_HOST is rendered by the apiserver from this now-NULL allocation once the recovered, allocation-less job is pushed to it -- which is why restarting the apiserver alongside the controller (forcing a fresh push) reveals the bug, while leaving the apiserver running (as an earlier verification pass on this same issue did) masks it behind stale cached data.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). No capnp schema change needed -- JobAlloc (xce_job_alloc_t) was already a full top-level capnp struct (the existing Job.allocs field) with generated encode/decode functions already present in the build. New glue only: src/controller/persist.c gains capnp_encode_joballoc()/decode_joballoc() (mirroring the existing capnp_encode_worker()/restore_job() patterns) and persist_submit_job_dispatch_fact(persist_t*, jobid, state, alloc) -- WAL_JOB_DISPATCH's payload is now a wal_jobstate_t header plus trailing capnp-encoded JobAlloc bytes, declared in src/include/persist.h. src/controller/job.c: dispatch_a_job_()'s success path now calls persist_submit_job_dispatch_fact(..., j->job.allocs) instead of persist_submit_job_fact(...), reading j->job.allocs (the freshly-constructed canonical struct) under the same write lock. Both apply seams updated: apply_committed_entry() (primary's own boot replay) gets one added else-if branch inside its existing WAL_JOB_START/WAL_JOB_FINISH stamp-chain (minimal diff, same shared plumbing) that decodes and adopts trailing allocation bytes when present. apply_wal_entry() (standby catch-up / replicated-apply -- also required, since a promoted standby would hit the exact same bug) has WAL_JOB_DISPATCH split into its own case, calling new restore_job_dispatch_state() (job.c, restore_job_state()'s sibling, takes ownership of an optional decoded allocation). A payload of exactly sizeof(wal_jobstate_t) (any WAL_JOB_DISPATCH entry written before this fix) decodes no allocation and behaves exactly as before -- full backward compatibility, verified by the 3 pre-existing test_wal_job_dispatch_fact.c tests passing completely unchanged.\n\nPrimary regression test: test_dispatch_commit.c's test_dc_success_appends_wal_job_dispatch_durably (already drove the REAL dispatch_a_job_() production path through a real WAL-write + persist_recover() restart cycle, previously only checking j2->job.state) extended to also assert j2->job.allocs matches what was dispatched (host, resource name, value) -- the user's exact acceptance criterion, 'after recover the job should get the same as it's state before shutdown.' RED->GREEN independently reproduced (not just narrated): git-stashed job.c/persist.c/persist.h with the test extension kept, rebuilt, confirmed FAIL at exactly this assertion; restored, rebuilt, confirmed PASS. Added 3 new tests to test_wal_job_dispatch_fact.c covering the richer payload directly on both apply seams plus a full restart-replay variant -- all pass. Full controller_unit_test suite independently re-run: 1136/1136 pass, zero regressions.\n\nLive-verified at the WAL level via xce_test's waldump: a real dispatch_a_job_() call produced a WAL_JOB_DISPATCH entry with PLEN=176 (vs the old bare wal_jobstate_t shape's PLEN=16), confirming the richer payload is genuinely written on the production path.\n\nIMPORTANT: full xcecli-visible E2E verification (submit -> restart -> check EXEC_HOST live) was blocked by discovering bug-1679 (see that entry) -- a separate, more severe, pre-existing bug where live job-status pushes to the apiserver never fire at all, restart or not. This fix's correctness rests on the unit-test evidence above (which inspects the controller's actual recovered in-memory state directly, with no dependency on the broken apiserver-notification path) and the direct WAL-payload inspection, not on an xcecli-visible live check.",

Discovered as a side effect while live-verifying bug-1678 (restart-recovery of job.allocs) -- this is a SEPARATE, unrelated, more severe bug: it reproduces with NO restart involved at all, on a single, freshly-submitted job, every time. Confirmed reproducible on the STOCK branch (git-stashed all of bug-1678's changes, rebuilt, redeployed fresh) -- NOT a regression introduced by bug-1678 or any other fix landed this session (bug-1673/1674/1675/1676/1677 touch only Go/apiserver code, a Python script, or job_submit_data_t's from_host field + jobj.c's dedup identity check -- none touch the state-transition/hook-firing logic implicated here).",

"root_cause": "dispatch_a_job_() (job.c, scheduler-dispatch-commit's task 3.1 restructuring) mutates j->job.state DIRECTLY in memory (job.c ~1355, `j->job.state = JOB_STAT_RUN;`) BEFORE calling persist_submit_job_dispatch_fact()/persist_submit_job_fact() to durably record the transition. On a live, single-node, self-committing controller, the commit-then-apply pipeline runs synchronously enough that apply_committed_entry()'s own WAL_JOB_DISPATCH handling (via apply_job_update_transition(j, JOB_STAT_RUN)) sees `cur == state == JOB_STAT_RUN` -- because the state was ALREADY set moments earlier by the same call, under the same lock -- and returns JOB_TRANSITION_NOOP_DUPLICATE. The shared case body's `if (result != JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED) return 0; /* rejected-backward / no-op-duplicate -- no hook */` then unconditionally skips xce_run_hooks(HOOK_AFTER_EVENT, HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE, ...) -- the ONLY mechanism (via apiserver_job_hook_fun/apiserver_push_joblist in apiserver.c, registered against XCE_CONTROLLER_HOOK_JOB) that pushes an updated job record to the apiserver. Live-confirmed via controller log: `apply_job_update_transition: job <id>: duplicate UPDATE to state 0x2 -- no-op` fires for BOTH the WAL_JOB_DISPATCH commit AND the subsequent WAL_JOB_START commit (on_job_start(), job.c) on the exact same job, back to back -- meaning the job NEVER gets a single HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE fire through its entire dispatch. apiserver_push_joblist() itself only ever fires ONCE per job, at creation time (apiserver_job_new_fun, subscribed to HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_NEW, itself fired once by apply_committed_entry's WAL_JOB_SUBMIT case) -- there is no periodic/polling full-refresh fallback, confirmed by reading apiserver_push_joblist's only call site. So a job's apiserver-visible record is permanently frozen at whatever it looked like at creation (JOB_STAT_PEND, no exec_host) for its entire lifetime, regardless of what actually happens to it afterward, UNLESS some other code path elsewhere in job.c legitimately fires the hook directly (mutate-then-notify, like mark_job_update()/persist_job_hook_fun's 'still-legitimate append' pattern) rather than relying on the apply-time hook-fire -- not confirmed either way for on_job_exit/mark_job_fail/other terminal-transition call sites; only dispatch_a_job_() and on_job_start were directly traced. This is very likely a structural gap introduced by (or newly exposed by) the raft-apply-decoupling / scheduler-dispatch-commit redesigns moving job-state mutation to happen synchronously ahead of persistence for several call sites, while the apiserver-notification hook-fire mechanism was designed under an assumption (state hasn't already changed by the time apply runs) that held for the OLD architecture but no longer holds for these newer, direct-mutation call sites.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). Root cause confirmed exactly as filed: dispatch_a_job_() (job.c) mutates job.state/job.allocs directly then persists, firing no hooks at all -- apply_committed_entry()'s later apply of that same WAL_JOB_DISPATCH entry sees state already matches and skips its would-be notify (JOB_TRANSITION_NOOP_DUPLICATE).\n\nNew src/controller/persist.c function persist_notify_job_updated_already_persisted(cluster_t*, job_t*) (declared in src/include/persist.h), called from dispatch_a_job_()'s success branch immediately after unlock(j). Internally guards with the exact same t_apply_seam_notifying flag apply_committed_entry()'s own shared WAL_JOB_START/.../DISPATCH case already uses around its identical hook fire (same guard, same hook -- HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE's AFTER_EVENT -- same detail) -- without it, persist_job_hook_fun (also subscribed to this hook) would redundantly re-append the same transition as a second, duplicate WAL_JOB_UPDATE entry. The flag stays file-private to persist.c; job.c reaches it only through this one new function. dispatch_a_job_()'s own mutation/persistence logic is otherwise untouched.\n\nTDD: new test_dc_success_notifies_job_update_hook_exactly_once (test_dispatch_commit.c) -- a spy hook counting HOOK_AFTER_EVENT/HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_UPDATE fires specifically. RED->GREEN independently reproduced: temporarily disabled the new call (production code unchanged otherwise), rebuilt, confirmed FAIL (Expected 1 Was 0); restored, rebuilt, confirmed PASS. Verified the two existing tests that would catch a broken guard (double WAL append): test_jobdispatch_receipt_ack_no_wal_append (asserts exactly one WAL entry for a successful dispatch) and test_handle_jobdispatch_matches_dispatch_a_job_notify_count -- both pass unchanged, and the former's fixture genuinely wires persist.cluster with persist_job_hook_fun registered, so it actually exercises the guard. Full controller_unit_test: 1137/1137 (2 pre-existing test_config_repl.c failures -- the known overlayfs fdatasync errno=5 flake, bug-1561 -- confirmed identical via git-stash on stock code, not a regression).\n\nLive-verified on a fresh single-node deploy (rebuilt controller/scheduler/worker/xcecli): submitted a job, xcecli jobs list showed PEND at t+1s then RUN with EXEC_HOST=1*worker* from t+2s onward continuously -- no restart involved, matching the exact acceptance criterion. Also confirmed record_job_finish_fact's existing notification path needed no fix: on_job_finish fired correctly and xcecli jobs list -d showed DONE with EXEC_HOST intact for both test jobs, exactly as the root-cause analysis predicted (only dispatch_a_job_()'s broken hybrid pattern was ever the problem -- the durable-append-only pattern record_job_start_fact/record_job_finish_fact use was already correct).",

Discovered as a side effect of live-verifying bug-1679: two jobs that correctly showed PEND->RUN->DONE via the default query and via `-d` (done-only) both come back empty under `-a` specifically. Not a data-loss bug (the jobs ARE correctly stored and queryable through other flags -- `-d`, the default active-jobs view -- this is specifically `-a`'s own query construction that's broken) but a real, reproducible CLI defect: `-a` is documented as the way to see literally everything, and it shows nothing.",

"root_cause": "xcecli's `-a` flag (list.go:347, `AllJobInfoFlag`) makes HandleJobFilter (job_filter.go:57-60) build the filter string `{job_status:notnull:}` -- a `notnull` operator on `job_status` with an EMPTY value token (no argument needed for null-checks, by design) -- instead of the normal `{job_status:in:(...)}`/`{job_status:notin:(...)}` shape every other status flag (-p/-r/-d/-s) produces. Server-side, `job_status`/`host_status` get SPECIAL bitmask handling in buildIntCondition (types.go:262-322), but that special-casing only triggers for the `in`/`notin`/`between` operators (the `if filter.Field == \"job_status\" || filter.Field == \"host_status\"` branch sits inside the `if filterOperator == \"in\" || filterOperator == \"notin\" || filterOperator == \"between\"` block, types.go:263-270) -- `notnull` falls through to the generic scalar path (types.go:316-322), which builds a plain `Condition{Column: \"job_status\", Operator: OpNOTNULL, Value: {TypeInt, 0}}` with no bitmask awareness at all. In isolation, store/query.go's own MatchesCondition evaluator (query.go:70-73) implements OpNOTNULL correctly (`fieldVal != nil`), which should trivially match every job (job_status is never actually absent/nil in a stored row) -- meaning the actual break is somewhere between condition construction and evaluation for this specific field/operator combination that was not fully traced (a debugger/print-tracing session would be needed to pin the exact line): plausible candidates are (a) the query engine routing job_status conditions through a bitmask-specific code path unconditionally regardless of operator, silently misinterpreting a non-bitmask NOTNULL Condition as a bitmask EQ/NE against value 0 (which would exclude every real job_status value, all of which are nonzero bitmask flags), or (b) some other job_status-specific special-casing elsewhere in the query pipeline that only handles the `in`/`notin`/`eq`/`ne` shapes types.go's own bitmask branch produces and never anticipated a bare NOTNULL condition on this field at all.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). Root cause fully pinned down (the prior entry's root_cause left the construction-to-evaluation gap untraced -- now traced exactly): src/frontend/apiserver/store/query.go's FilterRows() (the actual filter-evaluation loop, not something the prior investigation reached) routes ANY condition on job_status/host_status through the bitmask path purely based on IsBitmaskField(cond.Column) -- unconditional on the field NAME alone, never checking the condition's actual Operator. MatchesBitmaskCondition()'s own switch only implements OpEQ/OpNE (the only two shapes buildIntCondition's in/notin bitmask branch ever produces) and silently `return false` for any other operator -- so `{job_status:notnull:}` (Operator: OpNOTNULL, Value: {TypeInt, 0}, per types.go's null/notnull scalar path) gets routed into MatchesBitmaskCondition anyway, matches neither switch case, and returns false for every single row unconditionally. That's the entire bug: field-name-based routing that ignores which operator shape is actually on the condition.\n\nFix: FilterRows's routing condition now requires BOTH IsBitmaskField(cond.Column) AND cond.Operator being OpEQ or OpNE before taking the bitmask path; any other operator (OpNOTNULL, OpISNULL, or anything else that might ever target job_status/host_status) correctly falls through to the generic MatchesCondition evaluator, which already implements OpNOTNULL/OpISNULL correctly (fieldVal != nil / == nil) -- confirmed by the fix requiring zero changes to MatchesCondition or MatchesBitmaskCondition themselves, only the dispatch condition in FilterRows.\n\nNew src/frontend/apiserver/store/query_test.go (no test file existed for this package before -- confirmed via search, matches the prior entry's note): TestFilterRows_JobStatusNotNull_MatchesRealRows reproduces the exact bug (RED before the fix: 0 rows matched instead of 3; independently confirmed) and TestFilterRows_JobStatusBitmaskEQ_StillWorks locks in that the actual bitmask shape (OpEQ/OpNE, what every -p/-r/-d/-s status flag produces) is unaffected -- both pass after the fix.

Deliberately does NOT #include the real ../src/plugin.c in this file (unlike test_driver_session_ordering.c, which proves real per-plugin hook firing via a genuinely-registered observer plugin) -- sim.core.plugins does not exist until sched_sim_driver_run()'s own internal sched_sim_driver_start()/sim_bootstrap_picker() calls run, with no hook point for a test to register an observer plugin in between, so this file spies the call site directly instead, plus a verbatim real reimplementation of plugin_register_core() (needed for real by both this file's fixture and sim_picker.c's sim_bootstrap_picker()) and no-op link-satisfying stubs for plugin_register()/plugin_unregister() (both genuinely unreachable in this file's fixtures). Four other white-box test files (test_resval_ownership.c, test_admin_request.c, test_driver_decision_cb.c, test_driver_translate.c) each defined their own plugin_begin_session/plugin_end_session stub against the old void* signature -- all four updated to xce_sched_core_t* to match.\n\nRED/GREEN independently verified (not just narrated): temporarily commented out both new sim_loop.c call sites, rebuilt, confirmed test_sim_replay_calls_account_jobs_once_per_round_within_session_window and test_sim_replay_batch_mode_uses_the_same_round_boundary both FAIL (Expected 2 Was 0 / Expected 1 Was 0) -- proving the assertions genuinely exercise the missing calls, not a tautology. Restored (git diff confirmed byte-identical to the fixed state), rebuilt, reconfirmed both PASS.\n\nFull scheduler suite: 51/52 suites green; the one failure (test_recordstart_symlink_escape_replies_error) is the pre-existing, unrelated bug-1560 sandbox-environment flake (already documented as such in scheduler-core's own task 12.5 verification notes), not a regression from this fix.\n\nDeliberately NOT fixed as part of this change (separate, unrelated pre-existing defect found while touching the same function bodies): plugin_end_session()'s per-plugin guard checks the wrong field (begin_session_fn instead of end_session_fn) -- logged separately as bug-1682.",

Also fixed the adjacent stale doc-comment (src/controller/CLAUDE.md's Protocol Verification Checklist item 1, found by a sibling audit dimension the same session) which incorrectly claimed term+voted_for were written 'atomically under ha->lock' -- term uses a separate atomic store outside the lock.\n\nTest: added 3 tests to testsuite/test_ha_durability.c.

Its key_add() call (limit.c, then rc=-17/-EEXIST on the duplicate-name entry -- exactly the crash frame's own captured locals) dispatches to xkvmgr_add() (src/lib/kvmgr.c:107-129): vstore(kvm->data, value) succeeds first, THEN key_add(kvm->kvtab, key, idx) fails (EEXIST for a name already present), so xkvmgr_add rolls back via vclear(kvm->data, idx) -- which dispatches to xzarray_clear() (src/lib/zarray.c:614-637), and since the slot is in-use, fires a->killer(a->data[idx].data), i.e. kill_limit(limit), ONCE, automatically, as part of that rollback. limit_update_config()'s OLD error path then called kill_limit(limit) a SECOND time on the same already-freed pointer -- the double free glibc's malloc_printerr aborts on. Established precedent for this exact ownership-ambiguity shape: src/controller/job.c's restore_job_array() documents the identical asymmetry for a DIFFERENT kvmgr (c->jobmgr, .datakiller = NULL there) -- that kvmgr's own internal rollback is a no-op (killer is NULL), so THAT caller correctly must free the rejected value itself. Whether a caller must free a rejected key_add() value depends entirely on whether THAT specific kvmgr instance was configured with a non-NULL datakiller; privdata->limits has one (kill_limit), so limit_update_config must NOT free it itself. One accepted, documented residual gap (mirrors job.c's own accepted trade-off): if vstore() itself fails (e.g. zarray growth OOM, before ever reaching the kvtab key_add step), xkvmgr_add returns negative WITHOUT having stored or freed `limit` at all, and xkvmgr_add's return code doesn't distinguish this from the common EEXIST case -- removing the kill_limit() call trades a guaranteed crash on the common (duplicate-name) case for a leak in that vanishingly rare OOM-only sub-case.

Confirmed live-relevant: user reported StartTime always showing 0 in `xcecli joblist` for both RUN and DONE jobs on a live deployment -- deferred as a distinct follow-up investigation (that deployment's controller predates this fix; whether StartTime=0 specifically, rather than the pre-fix fabricated-nonzero time(NULL), indicates a SEPARATE live-apply-pump gap has not yet been root-caused).",

"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). Mirrors bug-1678's WAL_JOB_DISPATCH fix pattern exactly, using the already-existing controller.capnp JobPIDInfo struct (job_pidinfo_t's mapped type -- the existing Job.pidinfo field) with its already-generated encode_JobPIDInfo/decode_JobPIDInfo/free_JobPIDInfo_ptr functions; no schema change needed. src/controller/persist.c gains capnp_encode_pidinfo()/decode_pidinfo() (mirroring capnp_encode_joballoc()/decode_joballoc()) and persist_submit_job_start_fact(persist_t*, jobid, state, start_time, info) -- WAL_JOB_START's payload is now wal_jobstate_t header + a fixed uint64_t start_time (the receipt-time clock, captured ONCE by record_job_start_fact() rather than re-derived independently at each apply seam) + trailing Cap'n Proto-encoded JobPIDInfo bytes, declared in src/include/persist.h. src/controller/job.c's record_job_start_fact() now calls persist_submit_job_start_fact(..., time(NULL), info) instead of persist_submit_job_fact(...). Both apply seams updated: apply_wal_entry() (standby catch-up) splits WAL_JOB_START out of its shared group into its own case (mirroring how bug-1678 split WAL_JOB_DISPATCH out), decoding trailing start_time/pidinfo and calling new restore_job_start_state() (job.c, restore_job_dispatch_state()'s sibling, takes ownership of an optional decoded job_pidinfo_t and a wire-carried start_time -- 0 means 'not carried, leave untouched', matching this seam's pre-fix behavior of never touching start_time for WAL_JOB_START at all). apply_committed_entry() (primary boot replay / live apply pump) stays in its existing shared fall-through group (mirroring how WAL_JOB_DISPATCH joined that same group in bug-1678) but extends its wal_type==WAL_JOB_START branch: a payload with trailing bytes (len >= sizeof(wal_jobstate_t)+sizeof(uint64_t)) decodes and adopts the wire start_time and pidinfo directly; a payload of exactly sizeof(wal_jobstate_t) (any WAL_JOB_START entry written before this fix) falls through unchanged to the old fabricated-time(NULL)/pidinfo-untouched behavior -- full backward compatibility, verified by every pre-existing WAL_JOB_START test in test_apply_committed_entry.c/test_apply_reapply_idempotency.c/test_ha_role_lifecycle.c/test_apply_pump.c (all still using the old bare-wal_jobstate_t shape) passing unchanged.\n\nIncidental fix required to reach GREEN: test_commit_barrier_reply.c's cbrp_count_jobstate_entries_ex() (a test-only helper that manually scans the on-disk WAL segment) matched WAL_JOB_START/DISPATCH/etc entries via `hdr.payload_len == sizeof(wal_jobstate_t)` -- an exact-size match that silently undercounted (returned 0 instead of 1) once WAL_JOB_START legitimately grew past that fixed size, in turn making a downstream test in that file poll/spin forever on a count that could never be reached (observed as a genuine deadlock -- all 3 threads futex-blocked, 0 CPU time accruing over 12+ minutes wall clock, reproduced deterministically via `-t test_commit_barrier_reply` and bisected by temporarily inserting/removing an early `return;` in the test group's own RUN_TEST driver to narrow it to one of 8 candidate tests, then to a clean isolated PASS/FAIL once the helper was fixed). Changed the match to `>=` (jobid/state always live at the same fixed leading offset regardless of trailing bytes) -- the general, correct fix, not a workaround; resolves the hang completely (verified: full test_commit_barrier_reply group and the full controller suite both complete in ~38s with zero hangs, both before and after this specific fix was isolated via bisection). Also applied test_commit_barrier_reply.c's cbrp_teardown() the same persist_stop()-before-commit_engine_fini() ordering bug-1452 already established as the fix for this exact TOCTOU-race class (that fix's own note explicitly flagged this file as a same-pattern, not-yet-observed-to-crash follow-up) -- confirmed via bisection that this ordering was NOT the actual cause of this particular hang, but it is a genuine latent race per bug-1452's analysis and the fix is harmless/idempotent, so it was kept as defense-in-depth rather than reverted.\n\nPrimary regression tests: new src/controller/testsuite/test_wal_job_start_fact.c (6 tests, wired into src/controller/meson.build and testsuite/controller_test.c), mirroring test_wal_job_dispatch_fact.c's structure: (1) apply_committed_entry sets pidinfo+start_time from a new-format payload; (2) apply_committed_entry backward-compat with an old-format (bare wal_jobstate_t) payload -- pidinfo stays NULL, start_time still fabricated via time(NULL), unchanged from pre-fix; (3) apply_wal_entry sets pidinfo+start_time, fires no hook; (4) apply_wal_entry backward-compat -- pidinfo stays NULL, start_time left untouched; (5) direct-payload restart-replay (WAL_JOB_SUBMIT + new-format WAL_JOB_START via persist_wal_async + persist_recover()) recovers the exact wire start_time and pidinfo; (6) test_wjs_real_on_job_start_survives_restart -- drives the REAL production on_job_start() path (record_job_start_fact()'s only caller) with a real job_pidinfo_t (3 real pids, 2 real pgids, real exdata string), through a real WAL-write + persist_recover() restart cycle (the exact technique test_dispatch_commit.c's test_dc_success_appends_wal_job_dispatch_durably already established for bug-1678), asserting pidinfo AND start_time (bounded to the real wall-clock window around the on_job_start() call) survive the restart intact -- the audit's exact confirmed root cause and the user's exact acceptance criterion.\n\nRED->GREEN independently verified live (not just narrated): git-stashed job.c+persist.c (keeping the new test file, persist.h, wal_types.h unchanged) via `git stash push -- src/controller/job.c src/controller/persist.c`, rebuilt, ran `./controller_unit_test -t test_wal_job_start_fact` -- 6 Tests 4 Failures 0 Ignored (the 2 backward-compat tests correctly PASS unchanged; all 4 new-behavior tests correctly FAIL with the exact expected mismatches, e.g. 'Expected 1700000001 Was 1787645264' for the fabricated-vs-wire start_time, 'must set job.pidinfo... not just state' for the real on_job_start test). Restored via `git stash pop`, rebuilt, re-ran -- 6 Tests 0 Failures 0 Ignored. Full controller_unit_test suite re-run after all fixes (including the test_commit_barrier_reply.c hang fix and the buglog-id renumber from a concurrent session's own bug-1686 claim): 1146 Tests 2 Failures 0 Ignored, ~38s, zero hangs -- the 2 failures are test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions ('Expected 2 Was 3') and test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config ('Expected 0 Was <garbage uint64>') in test_config_repl.c, an already-logged, pre-existing, unrelated overlayfs sandbox fdatasync artifact (bug-1561, re-observed identically across multiple unrelated sessions with zero diff to test_config_repl.c/config_repl.c each time) -- confirmed by exact signature match, not a new regression.",

"error_message": "User-reported issue in the scheduler's interactive simulator REPL (`xce_scheduler -i`/`--sim`): `info worker all` and `info worker <name>` (e.g. `info worker pc13v`) initially print full per-resource detail (`[sim] resource slots: value=22.00 used=0.00`, `resource mem: value=...`, etc -- ~19 resource lines including slots/mem/r1m/r15m/r15s/ut/pg/ls/it/swp/io/tmp/type/model/cpuf/maxcpus/maxmem/maxswap/maxtmp/ndisks). After stepping the simulation forward through several sessions (`step 5` repeated, crossing RESVALS_DELTA, JOB_PUSH (2 batches, 40+80 jobs), JOB_UPDATE, and WORKERS_PUSH events across sessions 2 through 30), the SAME commands later in the SAME REPL session regress to printing ONLY the header line: `[sim] worker pc13v: status=online` -- zero resource lines, even though the worker still exists and is still 'online' (not removed/dead). Binary under test: `./build.dbg/controller/xce_controller --version` reports `xce v0.0.1-bc3f76b4-5ff97622 built 2026-08-25T08:56:58Z` (a build.dbg build -- note the user ran the CONTROLLER binary's --version, though the symptom itself is in the SCHEDULER's sim REPL; worth confirming which binary actually serves `xce_scheduler -i`/`--sim` and its own version once investigated). A real replay file reproducing the sequence is preserved at /tmp/scheduler-replay-20260825-090251.replay (~1MB, captured 2026-08-25 09:24 UTC) for a future investigation to replay directly instead of needing to reproduce from scratch.",
"file": "src/scheduler/src/repl_info.c (repl_info_worker_one(), ~line 309-388, the `info worker` print path), src/scheduler/src/core_events.c (core_apply_worker_resvals(), ~line 478, the WORKERS_PUSH resval-merge path), src/lib/zarray.c (zarray_put_ex(), ~line 267-303, count-vs-slot bookkeeping)",
"root_cause": "FULLY ROOT-CAUSED (2026-08-26), via live TRACE against the same /tmp/scheduler-replay-20260825-090251.replay this bug was originally reported with (build.dbg/scheduler/xce_scheduler --sim <file> -i -vvv, driving the exact `step 5` sequence, plus temporary per-call TRACE instrumentation in core_events.c/core_session.c/lib/zarray.c added and then fully removed once the trigger was pinned down). TWO independent bugs, both now fully understood and fixed:\n(1) core_apply_worker_resvals() (core_events.c) -- the count-doubling anomaly's ACTUAL trigger turned out to be neither an idx-resolution bug nor external memory corruption (both hypotheses from the prior session are RULED OUT: a per-resource `resolved idx=` trace across both pushes showed the SAME resource name always resolves to the SAME r->idx both times, and core_reset_workers()/xce_core_begin_session()/xce_core_end_session() were bracket-traced across many session boundaries with resvals.data's pointer, .count, and slot occupancy all provably untouched -- confirming core_reset_workers() only ever touches w->resInUse, exactly as previously suspected). The REAL mechanism, pinned down via a direct per-entry trace of nv->val itself: a WORKERS_PUSH re-announcing an already-registered worker's resource NAME list can legitimately decode nv->val to NULL for EVERY entry (confirmed: controller.capnp.c's decode_Value_ptr(), line ~2966-2976, sets `*d = NULL` whenever the wire NameValue.val capnp pointer is CAPN_NULL -- a faithful decode of what the controller-side encoder chose to send, not a decode bug). core_apply_worker_resvals() unconditionally MOVE_PTR'd this NULL into `val` and called zarray_put(&worker->resvals, r->idx, NULL) for every one of the 20 resources, silently overwriting each previously-known-good value with NULL. Because zarray_put_ex() (zarray.c:267-303) only increments array->count when the slot being written was NULL beforehand, this FIRST NULL-write left resvals.count unchanged (the snapshot-restored slot was non-NULL, so the 'else count++' branch never fired) while silently zeroing the slot's DATA -- confirmed live via a watched-array TRACE in zarray_put_ex() showing `new_data=(nil)` for all 20 writes on BOTH the first and second WORKERS_PUSH. A THIRD push then found every slot already NULL (from the first push's own corruption) and hit the 'was NULL, count++' branch for all 20, producing the literal 20 -> 40 doubling this bug was originally reported with. Ownership of the 'why does the controller push a repeat announce with no values' question is out of scope for this session (src/controller/ is off limits per this task's boundaries, and the fix does not depend on the answer) -- the defensive scheduler-side fix protects worker resvals regardless of why the wire push omitted a value.\n(2) repl_info_worker_one() (repl_info.c:324, confirmed unchanged from prior session's diagnosis) -- its resource-print loop used `for (i = 0; i < w->resvals.count; i++)`, treating `.count` as a safe index upper bound. `.caps` (resource.c:228's own established convention for this identical structure) is correct; `.count` can legitimately be less than the highest occupied index once entries are sparse -- exactly the state bug (1) produces (9 static resources nulled by a WORKERS_PUSH, 11 dynamic ones kept fresh by later RESVALS_DELTA events, live-confirmed as the actual after-fix-1-absent steady state for this replay: `info worker pc13v` after 30x `step 5` showed only mem/r1m/r15m/r15s/ut/pg/ls/it/swp/io/tmp, missing slots/type/model/cpuf/maxcpus/maxmem/maxswap/maxtmp/ndisks -- a real, reproduced PARTIAL instance of the reported symptom, not the fully empty header-only case, which likely needs a longer replay or a worker with no periodically-refreshed resources at all to reach).",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-26), TDD RED->GREEN for both root causes, both verified independently and together:\n(1) src/scheduler/src/core_events.c: core_apply_worker_resvals()'s per-resval loop guard extended from `if ((nv == NULL) || (nv->name == NULL))` to `if ((nv == NULL) || (nv->name == NULL) || (nv->val == NULL))` -- a NULL nv->val is now skipped (preserve whatever value is already there), the same defensive 'continue' posture already applied to the other two NULL checks. The pre-existing `if (nv->val != NULL && nv->val->which == Value_u_fvalue)` TRACE guard just below was simplified to `if (nv->val->which == Value_u_fvalue)` since nv->val == NULL can no longer reach that line. New regression test in src/scheduler/testsuite/test_core_events.c: test_workers_push_with_null_val_does_not_clobber_existing_resval -- pushes 2 resources (mem=100.0, r1m=5.0) for worker 'hostA', then pushes the SAME names with nv->val==NULL for both, asserts resvals.count stays 2 and both values survive unchanged; a THIRD identical NULL push re-confirms count stays 2 (would have been 4 under the pre-fix count- doubling behavior). RED confirmed live (git stash of just this file's fix, rebuilt, ran sched_core_events_test: 'Expected Non-NULL' failure at the post-second-push value check, 10/11 tests passing otherwise); GREEN confirmed after git stash pop + rebuild (11 Tests 0 Failures).\n(2) src/scheduler/src/repl_info.c: repl_info_worker_one()'s resource loop bound changed from `w->resvals.count` to `w->resvals.caps`, mirroring resource.c:228's `int num_res = (int)w->resvals.caps;` convention exactly; the loop's existing avail_v==NULL/rname==NULL skip is unchanged and already handles the now-larger, sparser index range safely. New regression test in src/scheduler/testsuite/test_repl_breakpoints_inspection.c: test_info_worker_shows_all_populated_resources_when_count_is_stale -- worker with 2 populated resvals slots (idx0 'mem', idx1 'r1m') but resvals.count forcibly set to 1 (the exact stale/sparse shape bug (1)'s prior failure mode produced), asserts `info worker` output contains BOTH resource lines. RED confirmed live (git stash of just this file's fix, rebuilt sched_repl_breakpoints_inspection_test: 28/29 passing, new test failing with the exact expected message 'a populated slot at an index >= the (stale) .count must still display'); GREEN confirmed after git stash pop + rebuild (29 Tests 0 Failures).\nEnd-to-end reproduction against the ORIGINAL /tmp/scheduler-replay-20260825-090251.replay, driving `info worker pc13v` before any steps, then 30x `step 5`, then `info worker pc13v` again: BEFORE the fix, the final `info worker pc13v` printed only 11 of 20 resource lines (mem/r1m/r15m/r15s/ut/pg/ls/it/swp/io/tmp survive via RESVALS_DELTA refresh; slots/type/model/cpuf/maxcpus/maxmem/maxswap/maxtmp/ndisks silently vanish) -- a live-reproduced instance of the reported regression class. AFTER both fixes, the same sequence's final `info worker pc13v` shows all 20 resource lines identical in shape to the very first (pre-step) dump, with only the naturally-updated dynamic values (mem/r1m/r15m/etc.) differing in magnitude as expected from real RESVALS_DELTA updates over 30 rounds -- status=online, zero missing lines.\nFull scheduler suite (xce-build.sh scheduler, ASAN profile): 53/54 tests OK, 1 failure -- test_recordstart_symlink_escape_replies_error (sched_admin_request_test), the exact pre-existing bug-1560 sandbox artifact (Expected 'invalid record file name' Was 'permission denied accessing record file'), confirmed unrelated (no files this bug touches -- core_events.c/repl_info.c/zarray.c -- are anywhere near record-file-path validation). Zero new failures; both new tests (sched_core_events_test 21/54, sched_repl_breakpoints_inspection_test 52/54) pass in the full suite run.",

Mirrors bug-1687's WAL_JOB_START fix pattern exactly, but uses a small NATIVE (non-capnp) trailing payload instead of Cap'n Proto, since job_exitinfo_t has no existing capnp mapping and no variable-length data (unlike JobPIDInfo). src/controller/persist.c gains decode_jobexitinfo() (a native memcpy decode, mirroring decode_pidinfo()/decode_joballoc()'s doc-comment style but without capnp) and persist_submit_job_finish_fact(persist_t*, jobid, state, finish_time, exit_code) -- WAL_JOB_FINISH's payload is now a wal_jobstate_t header + a fixed uint64_t finish_time (receipt-time clock, captured ONCE by record_job_finish_fact() rather than re-derived independently at each apply seam) + a fixed int32_t exit_code, declared in src/include/persist.h. src/controller/job.c's record_job_finish_fact() now calls persist_submit_job_finish_fact(..., time(NULL), finish->exit_code) instead of persist_submit_job_fact(...). Both apply seams updated: apply_wal_entry() (standby catch-up) splits WAL_JOB_FINISH out of its shared group into its own case (mirroring bug-1687's WAL_JOB_START split), decoding trailing finish_time/exit_code and calling new restore_job_finish_state() (job.c, restore_job_start_state()'s sibling -- finish_time==0 means 'not carried, leave finish_time/run_time untouched', matching this seam's pre-fix behavior exactly; exit_info==NULL means 'not carried, leave untouched'; job_exitinfo_t has no nested pointers so it is released with plain FREEUP, not a capnp free_*_ptr helper). apply_committed_entry() stays in its existing shared fall-through group but extends its wal_type==WAL_JOB_FINISH branch: a payload with trailing bytes (len >= sizeof(wal_jobstate_t)+sizeof(uint64_t)) decodes and adopts the wire finish_time and exit_code directly; a payload of exactly sizeof(wal_jobstate_t) (any WAL_JOB_FINISH entry written before this fix) falls through unchanged to the old fabricated-time(NULL)/exit_info-untouched behavior. run_time is NEVER carried on the wire in either case -- it is always re-derived as finish_time - start_time at apply time (matching apply_job_finish_transition()'s own formula), since start_time is already correctly recovered via bug-1687's own fix. Full backward compatibility verified by 2 dedicated old-format tests plus every pre-existing WAL_JOB_FINISH test in test_apply_committed_entry.c/test_apply_reapply_idempotency.c/test_apply_pump.c/test_commit_barrier_reply.c/test_commit_barrier_rollout.c (all still using the old bare-wal_jobstate_t shape) passing unchanged.\n\nNew regression tests: src/controller/testsuite/test_wal_job_finish_fact.c (6 tests, mirroring test_wal_job_start_fact.c's structure exactly, wired into src/controller/meson.build and testsuite/controller_test.c): (1) apply_committed_entry sets exit_info+finish_time (+re-derived run_time) from a new-format payload; (2) apply_committed_entry backward-compat with an old-format payload -- exit_info stays NULL, finish_time still fabricated via time(NULL); (3) apply_wal_entry sets exit_info+finish_time+run_time, fires no hook; (4) apply_wal_entry backward-compat -- exit_info/finish_time/run_time all left untouched (sentinel values survive), unlike apply_committed_entry's fabrication; (5) direct-payload restart-replay (WAL_JOB_SUBMIT + WAL_JOB_START + new-format WAL_JOB_FINISH via persist_wal_async + persist_recover()) recovers the exact wire finish_time, exit_code, and a correctly re-derived run_time; (6) test_wjf_real_on_job_finish_survives_restart -- drives the REAL production on_job_finish() path (record_job_finish_fact()'s only caller) with a real xce_jobfinish_t (nonzero exit_code=137), through a real WAL-write + persist_recover() restart cycle, asserting exit_info, finish_time (bounded to the real wall-clock window), and run_time all survive the restart intact -- the audit's exact confirmed root cause and the user's exact acceptance criterion.\n\nRED->GREEN independently verified live (not just narrated): git-stashed job.c+persist.c only (`git stash push -- src/controller/job.c src/controller/persist.c`, keeping the new test file, persist.h, wal_types.h unchanged), rebuilt via the synchronous xce-build.sh script, ran `./controller_unit_test -t test_wal_job_finish_fact` -- 6 Tests 4 Failures 0 Ignored (the 2 backward-compat tests correctly PASS unchanged; all 4 new-behavior tests correctly FAIL with exact expected mismatches, e.g. 'Expected 1700000050 Was 1787651049' for the fabricated-vs-wire finish_time on apply_committed_entry, 'Expected 1700000150 Was 0' for apply_wal_entry never touching finish_time pre-fix, and 'must set job.exit_info... not just state' for the real on_job_finish restart test). Restored via `git stash pop`, rebuilt, re-ran -- 6 Tests 0 Failures 0 Ignored, reproduced 3 consecutive times. Full controller_unit_test suite re-run after the fix: 1152 Tests, 1-2 Failures (flaky between runs) -- both failure signatures ('Expected 2 Was 3' / test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions, and a garbage-uint64 mismatch / test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config in test_config_repl.c) are the exact, previously-logged bug-1561 overlayfs-fdatasync sandbox artifact, confirmed identical across 2 consecutive re-runs of the unchanged binary (proving the flakiness is a sandbox I/O nondeterminism, not caused by this fix) -- zero new failures. Checked test_commit_barrier_reply.c's cbrp_count_jobstate_entries() (the exact helper bug-1687 had to fix for a payload-size-growth-induced hang) for the same risk: it already uses the generic `hdr.payload_len >= sizeof(wal_jobstate_t)` comparison bug-1687 fixed (not a WAL_JOB_START-specific special case), so WAL_JOB_FINISH's payload growth is already safely handled by that existing fix -- confirmed empirically by the full suite completing in ~38s with zero hangs, matching prior-session timing exactly.",

Unlike the three precedents, xce_job_runusage_t had NO existing Cap'n Proto mapping at all (confirmed: grep for xce_job_runusage_t in controller.capnp matched nothing; a similar-looking but unrelated type, xce_job_rusages_t/JobRusages/SchedJobRusages -- the CLIENT's wire update-request shape {jobid, pids[], pgids[], usages[]} -- already existed and is NOT interchangeable), so this fix required a genuine schema addition, not a reuse.",

Both apply seams -- apply_committed_entry()'s shared WAL_JOB_START/FINISH/.../DISPATCH fall-through group (persist.c) and apply_wal_entry()'s identical shared group -> restore_job_state() (job.c, state-only) -- never restored run_usage, matching the exact same class of gap bug-1678/1687/1689 already fixed for allocs/pidinfo+start_time/exit_info+finish_time.

"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). Added a genuine new Cap'n Proto schema pair to controller.capnp -- struct HostRunusage $C.mapname(\"xce_host_runusage_t\"){hostName, cpuTime, memUsage} and struct JobRunusage $C.mapname(\"xce_job_runusage_t\"){maxMem, avgMem, usedMem, cpuTime, peakCpuTime, peakCpuDuration, memEfficiency, avgCpuEfficiency, peakCpuEfficiency, hostRunusage: List(HostRunusage) $C.maplistcount(\"num_hosts\")} -- following JobPendReason's exact List(NestedStruct)+maplistcount precedent already in the schema, field types verified against types.h's real xce_job_runusage_t/xce_host_runusage_t definitions via CodeGraph before writing. The meson custom_target (src/lib/meson.build) regenerated lib/controller.capnp.c/.h automatically on rebuild -- verified via nm on the built controller_unit_test binary showing the full genuinely-codegen'd symbol set (new_JobRunusage, read/write_JobRunusage, encode/decode_JobRunusage, free_JobRunusage_ptr, get/set per-field accessors, and the equivalent HostRunusage set), never hand-written. persist.c gains capnp_encode_jobrunusage()/decode_jobrunusage() (mirroring capnp_encode_joballoc()/decode_joballoc() exactly). persist_job_hook_fun()'s HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_RUSAGE_UPDATE case now also encodes j->job.run_usage (when non-NULL) as trailing capnp bytes after the wal_jobstate_t header -- inlined into that hook (not a new persist_submit_job_rusage_fact(), unlike bug-1678/1687/1689's direct-call-site pattern, since RUSAGE is genuinely hook-driven). Both apply seams updated: apply_wal_entry() splits WAL_JOB_RUSAGE out of its shared state-only group into its own case, decoding trailing bytes and calling new restore_job_rusage_state() (job.c). apply_committed_entry()'s WAL_JOB_RUSAGE handling stays in its shared job-fact group but -- critically, UNLIKE START/FINISH/DISPATCH -- decodes/adopts run_usage UNCONDITIONALLY, before the JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED gate: a rusage report almost never changes job.state (the job stays RUN across every repeat report), so gating adoption on a forward state transition the way the other three fixes do would make it dead code for the realistic, common case (every report after the first hits JOB_TRANSITION_NOOP_DUPLICATE and the gated block never runs). This divergence was caught by actually reading apply_job_update_transition()'s guard logic rather than blindly copying the precedent pattern. A payload of exactly sizeof(wal_jobstate_t) (any WAL_JOB_RUSAGE entry written before this fix, or one fired while job.run_usage was still NULL at write time) decodes no run_usage on both seams, matching pre-fix behavior exactly -- full backward compatibility.\n\nCRITICAL SAFETY FINDING beyond the precedent's pattern, caught via investigation (not assumed): a naive free-and-replace (mirroring bug-1678/1687/1689's free_X_ptr()-then-adopt exactly) would be a genuine heap-corruption hazard here, specific to RUSAGE. job.run_usage can be the job's LIVE structure -- update_job_rusages()/update_host_runusage() (job.c/misc.c) mutate it synchronously and in place BEFORE the WAL fact is even appended, and host_name is sourced from makeString() (src/lib/xstring.c), an RTTI-managed, refcounted, header-before-data pointer (confirmed via librtti's actual source in the nix store: RTTI_DATA_TO_OBJ subtracts RTTI_OBJ_HEADER_SIZE from the data pointer to reach the real allocation start) -- NOT a plain malloc() allocation, unlike JobAlloc/JobPIDInfo's host/exdata fields (verified to be genuinely capnp-wire-decoded end to end via dispatch_a_job_()'s own alloc parameter, confirming why bug-1678/1687 never hit this). persist_apply_pump_run() (the live online-apply pump, confirmed via its own doc comment to run on the primary itself, not just boot replay) re-applies every committed WAL_JOB_RUSAGE fact via apply_committed_entry() moments after the SAME live mutation already happened -- so calling the capnp-generated free_JobRunusage_ptr() (written for plain malloc'd Text fields) on that live structure would free() a non-malloc'd, RTTI-managed pointer: guaranteed ASAN abort / heap corruption on the very first live rusage report for a new host. Fixed by making adoption a MERGE (new merge_job_runusage(), job.c) instead of a free-and-replace: an already-present host (matched by host_name string comparison, mirroring update_host_runusage()'s own find-existing-or-append semantics) only has its scalar cpu_time/mem_usage overwritten in place -- its host_name pointer, possibly xstring-backed, is NEVER touched or freed; only a genuinely new host's own freshly-decoded (always plain-malloc'd) host_name is adopted by ownership transfer. Applied identically in both restore_job_rusage_state() (apply_wal_entry seam) and apply_committed_entry's own branch, since a demoted-primary-turned-standby could in principle retain live-mutated run_usage data too. Noted (not fixed, genuinely out of scope -- a different file/component/bug class): job_destroy() (src/lib/jobj.c)'s own existing manual FREEUP-based walk over run_usage has this exact same latent host_name/xstring mismatch, independent of and pre-dating this fix.\n\nRegression tests: src/controller/testsuite/test_wal_job_rusage_fact.c (8 tests, mirroring test_wal_job_start_fact.c's structure): (1) apply_committed_entry adopts run_usage when state does NOT change (JOB_TRANSITION_NOOP_DUPLICATE) -- the suite's most important test, proving the unconditional-decode design choice; (2) apply_committed_entry adopts run_usage on a genuine forward transition, hook still fires once; (3) apply_committed_entry backward-compat with an old-format payload; (4) apply_committed_entry merges without freeing a REAL makeString()'d host_name -- builds a live-flavor run_usage by hand, applies an update for that same host plus a new host, and asserts the host_name POINTER IDENTITY survives (proving it was never freed) alongside correct scalar/new-host merging, with careful test-only cleanup (detach + dereference()) so the separate, pre-existing job_destroy() FREEUP issue can't fire inside the test's own teardown; (5) apply_wal_entry adopts run_usage, no hook, absolute state overwrite; (6) apply_wal_entry backward-compat; (7) direct-payload restart-replay (WAL_JOB_SUBMIT + WAL_JOB_RUSAGE via persist_wal_async + persist_recover()); (8) drives the REAL, unmodified persist_job_hook_fun() via the established 'variadic trampoline' pattern (test_commit_barrier_rollout.c/test_persist_hooks.c) through a real WAL-write + persist_recover() restart cycle -- NOT via update_job_rusages() itself, because this same controller_unit_test binary already links test_commit_barrier_reply.c's own non-static stub of update_host_runusage() (a no-op, since misc.c is outside controller_unit_test_src), so calling update_job_rusages() here would silently hit that stub and populate nothing -- documented in the test file's own header comment.\n\nRED->GREEN independently verified live (not narrated): `git stash push -- src/controller/job.c src/controller/persist.c` (keeping the schema change, the new test file, and meson.build/controller_test.c wiring), full clean rebuild via `nix develop ./src --command bash src/tools/xce-build.sh controller asan build-asan` (no --incremental, since this is the schema's first-ever compile) -- 1160 Tests 8 Failures: exactly the 6 new RUSAGE tests (5 with the exact expected 'must set job.run_usage' mismatch, 1 with 'Expected 500 Was 100' for the merge-safety test) plus the 2 pre-existing bug-1561 test_config_repl.c failures; the 2 backward-compat tests correctly passed unchanged. `git stash pop`, incremental rebuild -- 1160 Tests 2 Failures (only the pre-existing bug-1561 pair, exact signature match 'Expected 2 Was 3' / 'Expected 0 Was <garbage>'), all 8 new tests pass, zero new failures, zero ASAN aborts/heap-corruption findings (explicitly grepped the full test log for AddressSanitizer/heap-buffer-overflow/invalid-free/SEGV/Aborted -- none found). Verified the generated capnp code was genuinely regenerated, not hand-written: `nm` on the built controller_unit_test binary shows the complete real codegen symbol set for both new structs (new_JobRunusage, read/write_JobRunusage, encode/decode_JobRunusage, free_JobRunusage_ptr, per-field get/set accessors, and the equivalent HostRunusage set), with generated-file mtimes strictly after the schema edit's mtime.",

"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). This is the simplest of the five field-parity fixes -- job.ckptinfo is a plain string, so NO capnp struct was needed at all (unlike bug-1678/1687/1690's capnp wrappers, though it does share bug-1689's 'native, non-capnp trailer' style). Mirrors WAL_QUEUE_CTRL's own established [header][name NUL-terminated] wire shape (persist_queue_hook_fun / apply_wal_entry's WAL_QUEUE_CTRL case, read as the reference implementation before designing this fix) exactly: the ckptinfo string is appended as a NUL-terminated string directly after the wal_jobstate_t header, bounded by the WAL entry's own payload_len (no separate length prefix). persist.c gains decode_ckptinfo() (a native memcpy-with-NUL-bound-check decode, mirroring decode_jobexitinfo()'s bug-1689 native-trailer style) and a new HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_CKPT case in persist_job_hook_fun() -- split out of the generic `default:` arm -- that encodes j->job.ckptinfo (when non-NULL) as trailing bytes appended after the wal_jobstate_t header, mirroring the rusage_buf/rusage_len construction bug-1690 already added to this same function for WAL_JOB_RUSAGE (both are hook-driven, unlike DISPATCH/START/FINISH's direct persist_submit_job_*_fact() call sites). src/include/wal_types.h's WAL_JOB_CKPT enum value gains a doc comment documenting the new payload shape and backward-compat contract, mirroring every other WAL_JOB_* entry's existing convention. Both apply seams updated: apply_wal_entry() (standby catch-up) splits WAL_JOB_CKPT out of its shared state-only group into its own case (mirroring bug-1690's WAL_JOB_RUSAGE split), decoding trailing ckptinfo bytes via decode_ckptinfo() and calling new restore_job_ckpt_state() (job.c, restore_job_rusage_state()'s sibling). apply_committed_entry() stays in its existing shared job-fact group but -- mirroring bug-1690's WAL_JOB_RUSAGE design exactly, for the identical reason -- decodes/adopts ckptinfo UNCONDITIONALLY, before the JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED gate: a checkpoint report never changes job.state, so gating adoption on a forward state transition would make it dead code for the realistic, only-ever-occurring case (every real WAL_JOB_CKPT fact hits JOB_TRANSITION_NOOP_DUPLICATE, since js.state is captured verbatim from the job's own unchanged current state). A payload of exactly sizeof(wal_jobstate_t) (any WAL_JOB_CKPT entry written before this fix, or one fired while job.ckptinfo was still NULL at write time) decodes no ckptinfo on both seams, matching pre-fix behavior exactly -- full backward compatibility.\n\nAdoption is a plain free-and-replace (dereference() the prior xstring value, adopt a fresh makeString()'d copy), NOT a merge -- this DIVERGES from bug-1690's WAL_JOB_RUSAGE fix, which required a merge specifically because a naive free-and-replace via the WRONG release function (the capnp-generated free_JobRunusage_ptr(), written for plain malloc'd fields) would free a non-malloc'd, RTTI-managed xstring pointer. job.ckptinfo IS xstring-backed (makeString(), xstring.c) exactly like RUSAGE's host_name was, and CAN be the job's own live value when the primary's own live apply pump re-applies a fact moments after on_job_ckpt() already set it -- but dereference() (the correct RTTI release verb, used here instead of free()/FREEUP) is safe regardless of whether the pointer is 'old' or coincidentally 'the current live one', since it decrements a refcount rather than raw free()ing a non-owned pointer. This distinction was verified by reading xstring.c's actual makeString()/dereference() implementation before choosing the release strategy, not assumed from the RUSAGE precedent.\n\nRegression tests: new src/controller/testsuite/test_wal_job_ckpt_fact.c (7 tests, mirroring test_wal_job_rusage_fact.c's 'unconditional decode independent of transition result' structure plus test_wal_job_finish_fact.c's simpler real-production-call pattern, wired into src/controller/meson.build and testsuite/controller_test.c): (1) apply_committed_entry sets ckptinfo when state does NOT change (JOB_TRANSITION_NOOP_DUPLICATE) -- this suite's most important test, proving the unconditional-decode design choice, hook fires 0 times; (2) apply_committed_entry sets ckptinfo on a genuine forward transition, hook still fires once; (3) apply_committed_entry backward-compat with an old-format payload; (4) apply_wal_entry sets ckptinfo, fires no hook; (5) apply_wal_entry backward-compat; (6) direct-payload restart-replay (WAL_JOB_SUBMIT + new-format WAL_JOB_CKPT via persist_wal_async + persist_recover()); (7) test_wjc_real_on_job_ckpt_survives_restart -- drives the REAL production on_job_ckpt() path (cluster.c's NotifyData_data_ckptinfo dispatch's only callee) with a real xce_ckptinfo_t, through a real WAL-write + persist_recover() restart cycle, asserting ckptinfo survives the restart intact -- the audit's exact confirmed root cause. Test 7 required passing a real cluster_t* (not NULL) as persist_init()'s 3rd argument -- unlike test_wjf_real_on_job_finish_survives_restart's identical-looking fixture (a direct-call-site fix needing no hook registration), on_job_ckpt() is hook-driven and depends entirely on persist_start() registering persist_job_hook_fun on cluster.hooksys (gated on `p->cluster != NULL`) to reach the WAL at all -- caught via a genuine RED-signal debugging pass (the real-path test initially failed even with the fix applied, isolating to this exact fixture gap, not a fix defect).\n\nRED->GREEN independently verified live (not just narrated): `git stash push -- src/controller/job.c src/controller/persist.c` (keeping the new test file, wal_types.h, meson.build/controller_test.c wiring), incremental rebuild via the synchronous xce-build.sh script, ran the full controller_unit_test suite -- 1167 Tests 7 Failures (the 2 pre-existing bug-1561 test_config_repl.c failures plus all 5 new-behavior WAL_JOB_CKPT tests failing with the exact expected 'must set job.ckptinfo' mismatch; the 2 backward-compat tests correctly PASS unchanged). `git stash pop`, incremental rebuild, ran the isolated new test group directly against the binary (`ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0 ./controller_unit_test -t test_wal_job_ckpt_fact`, needed because LeakSanitizer's atexit-based leak check bypasses libc's normal exit() stdio-flush path on this binary, silently discarding all buffered PASS/FAIL output when leaks are present -- a pre-existing, suite-wide fixture characteristic unrelated to this fix, confirmed identical on the RUSAGE suite: 78 leaked allocations in isolation, same fixture-leak pattern, not a regression) -- initially 6/7 passed, with test_wjc_real_on_job_ckpt_survives_restart failing; root-caused to the persist_init() NULL-vs-&c fixture gap above, fixed the test, reran -- 7 Tests 0 Failures. Full controller_unit_test suite re-run via xce-build.sh after all fixes: 1167 Tests, 2 Failures -- exact bug-1561 signature match ('Expected 2 Was 3' / test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions, 'Expected 0 Was <garbage uint64>' / test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config in test_config_repl.c), zero new failures, zero ASAN heap-corruption findings (grepped the full test log for heap-buffer-overflow/invalid-free/use-after-free/SEGV/Aborted/double-free -- none found).\n\nENVIRONMENT NOTE: this session's build/test runs were repeatedly disrupted by the /tmp filesystem filling to 100% (0 bytes free), traced to ~15,437 orphaned mkdtemp() scratch directories (xce_ckpt_*/xce_hook_test_*/xce_e2e_wal_*/etc., ~658GB total) accumulated across many prior sessions' test runs whose cleanup never ran (each interrupted mid-flight by the same ENOSPC condition in a compounding cycle). Cleared via `rm -rf /tmp/xce_*` (verified via /proc/*/fd that no live process held any of them open) before the final, valid GREEN run -- unrelated to this fix's correctness, but a genuine environment hazard worth flagging for other sessions sharing this machine.",

"root_cause": "persist_job_hook_fun()'s job-fact switch (persist.c) routed HOOK_DETAIL_SETPREASON/HOOK_DETAIL_CLRPREASON through its generic `default:` arm (shared with STOP/RESUME/UPDATE), which captures only {jobid, state} from the job_t* -- j->job.pend_reasons, freshly set/cleared by set_preason()/do_clr_preason() moments earlier under the same write lock this AFTER_EVENT fires inside, was never read or encoded. Both apply seams -- apply_committed_entry()'s shared WAL_JOB_START/FINISH/.../DISPATCH fall-through group (primary boot replay AND live commit-advance apply) and apply_wal_entry()'s identical shared group -> restore_job_state() (job.c, state-only) for standby catch-up -- never restored pend_reasons, matching the exact same class of gap bug-1678/1687/1689/1690/1691 already fixed for allocs/pidinfo+start_time/exit_info+finish_time/run_usage/ckptinfo. Confirmed via CodeGraph source read that set_preason()/do_clr_preason() are hook-driven (fire xce_run_hooks only, no direct persist_submit_job_*_fact() call site) -- closer to bug-1690/1691's RUSAGE/CKPT precedent than DISPATCH/START/FINISH's direct-call-site pattern -- verified against the real code before implementing. Also confirmed set_preason()/do_clr_preason() never change job.state (only job.pend_reasons), so a naive copy of the START/FINISH/DISPATCH pattern (gating adoption on a forward JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED) would have made the fix dead code on every real invocation, mirroring bug-1690/1691's exact same discovery. UNIQUE to this bug (verified, not assumed from precedent): job.pend_reasons has a genuine CLEAR operation (do_clr_preason/HOOK_DETAIL_CLRPREASON) that legitimately resets it to NULL and must survive replay just as durably as the SET side -- bug-1690/1691's own wire convention ('trailing bytes present or absent' == 'field has a new value or is old-format, leave untouched') cannot distinguish that legitimate NULL from a pre-fix payload, so a blind copy of that convention would have silently reintroduced a stale-pend_reasons-after-clear bug on restart.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). controller.capnp ALREADY had a matching struct -- `struct JobPendReason $C.mapname(\"xce_job_preason_t\")` with `mainReason`/`hostReasons: List(HostBasedReason) $C.maplistcount(\"nhost_reasons\")`/`resReasons: List(ResourceBasedReason) $C.maplistcount(\"nres_reasons\")`, plus sibling `HostBasedReason $C.mapname(\"xce_host_reason_t\")` and `ResourceBasedReason $C.mapname(\"xce_res_reason_t\")` -- verified field-for-field against types.h's real struct layouts, and ALREADY wired into the full Job struct's own encode/decode/free (Job.pendreason field, used by the existing checkpoint/snapshot path) -- confirmed via grep that encode_JobPendReason/decode_JobPendReason/free_JobPendReason/free_JobPendReason_ptr/new_JobPendReason/read_JobPendReason/write_JobPendReason all already exist in the generated controller.capnp.c/.h. NO schema change needed (like bug-1678/1687's JobAlloc/JobPIDInfo reuse, unlike bug-1690's WAL_JOB_RUSAGE which needed a brand-new schema struct).\n\nSAFETY CHECK (bug-1690's RUSAGE lesson, explicitly re-verified rather than assumed): read erase_job_preason() (src/lib/preason.c) -- releases every field via FREEUP() (plain free()), never dereference()/RTTI. Read add_host_preason()/add_res_preason() (same file) -- build host/resource reason entries via strdup()/calloc() throughout, never makeString(). Read the generated decode_HostBasedReason/decode_ResourceBasedReason (controller.capnp.c) -- use STRING_DUP (plain strdup) + calloc(), and free_HostBasedReason/free_ResourceBasedReason/free_JobPendReason/free_JobPendReason_ptr all use plain free(). Also confirmed jobj.c's job_init() ALREADY does a plain MOVE_PTR(dst->job.pend_reasons, src->pend_reasons) when constructing a job from a decoded Job (no merge, no makeString) and job_destroy() releases it via erase_job_preason() (FREEUP-only) -- an existing, working precedent for exactly this adopt pattern elsewhere in the codebase. CONCLUSION: unlike WAL_JOB_RUSAGE's host_name (xstring/RTTI-backed, required a merge to avoid corrupting the codebase's own live in-place-mutated structure), job.pend_reasons and its entire nested tree are plain calloc()/strdup()-backed with NO RTTI involvement -- a straightforward free-old-then-adopt-new via the capnp-generated free_JobPendReason_ptr() is safe, matching bug-1678/1687's JobAlloc/JobPIDInfo pattern, NOT bug-1690's merge-required pattern. set_preason() itself corroborates this: it does erase_job_preason()+FREEUP() then a plain MOVE_PTR of the caller's already-built xce_job_preason_t*, never mutating the SAME live structure in place the way update_host_runusage() does for run_usage -- so there is no live-object-reapplied-via-apply-pump hazard analogous to RUSAGE's here either.\n\npersist.c gains capnp_encode_jobpreason()/decode_jobpreason() (mirroring capnp_encode_joballoc()/decode_joballoc() exactly). persist_job_hook_fun() gains a new HOOK_DETAIL_SETPREASON/HOOK_DETAIL_CLRPREASON case (split out of the generic default arm, mirroring bug-1691's HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_CKPT split) that encodes j->job.pend_reasons when non-NULL.\n\nKEY DESIGN DIVERGENCE from bug-1690/1691's wire convention (the CLEAR-semantics gap identified above): the payload appends an explicit PRESENCE BYTE after the wal_jobstate_t header whenever the fact is SETPREASON or CLRPREASON (not just when a value exists to encode) -- 0 = pend_reasons was genuinely cleared (adopt NULL on replay), 1 = trailing capnp JobPendReason bytes follow (adopt the decoded value). A payload of exactly sizeof(wal_jobstate_t) (no presence byte at all -- any entry written before this fix) leaves pend_reasons untouched on both apply seams, preserving full backward compatibility. Both apply seams updated: apply_wal_entry() splits WAL_JOB_PREASON out of its shared state-only group into its own case, decoding the presence byte (and trailing capnp bytes when present=1) via decode_jobpreason() and calling new restore_job_preason_state() (job.c) -- careful to treat a present-but-failed-decode as 'leave untouched', never as an implicit clear. apply_committed_entry() stays in its shared job-fact group but -- mirroring bug-1690/1691's unconditional-adopt design for the identical reason (set_preason()/do_clr_preason() never change job.state, so gating on JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED would make it dead code) -- decodes/adopts pend_reasons UNCONDITIONALLY, before the transition gate, using the same presence-byte + decode-failure-safe logic.\n\nRegression tests: new src/controller/testsuite/test_wal_job_preason_fact.c (11 tests, mirroring test_wal_job_ckpt_fact.c's 'unconditional decode independent of transition result' structure, extended with PREASON-specific clear-semantics coverage no CKPT/RUSAGE precedent needed): (1) apply_committed_entry sets pend_reasons (BOTH a host-based AND a resource-based reason, exercising both nested list types) when state does NOT change -- most important test; (2) apply_committed_entry sets pend_reasons on a genuine forward transition; (3) apply_committed_entry backward-compat with an old bare payload; (4) apply_committed_entry CLEARS an existing pend_reasons on a presence-byte=0 payload -- the test that would have caught a naive copy of bug-1690/1691's convention; (5) apply_committed_entry leaves pend_reasons untouched when present=1 but zero trailing bytes follow (decode_jobpreason never even called) -- NOTE: an earlier draft of this test tried to exercise 'corrupt capnp bytes' instead and got a genuine RED signal for the wrong reason (Expected 4 Was 0) -- capnp-c's read path does not validate content, so garbage-but-nonempty bytes decode into a zero-valued struct rather than returning NULL (matching decode_joballoc/decode_jobrunusage's identical pre-existing leniency); corrected to the actually-reachable zero-trailing-bytes case; (6-8) the apply_wal_entry mirrors of (1)/(3)/(4); (9) direct-payload restart replay (WAL_JOB_SUBMIT + WAL_JOB_PREASON with host+resource reasons via persist_wal_async + persist_recover()); (10) test_wjp_real_do_set_preason_survives_restart -- drives the REAL, unmodified do_set_preason() (set_preason() itself is file-static to job.c; do_set_preason() is job.c's only exported entrypoint, matching the actual OPCode_setpreason wire path) through a real WAL-write + persist_recover() restart cycle, requiring a minimal zeroed (fd=-1, no iomgr) endpoint_t since do_set_preason() calls xce_reply() before processing -- mirrors test_commit_barrier_reply.c's established fixture pattern, packets drained via endpoint_deq()/free_packet() to avoid a reachable-leak false positive; (11) test_wjp_real_clear_survives_restart -- PREASON-specific, no CKPT/RUSAGE analog: drives real do_set_preason() THEN real do_clr_preason() before restarting, proving the CLEAR itself durably survives replay (not just the earlier SET) -- the audit's exact confirmed correctness requirement unique to this fact type.\n\nRED->GREEN independently verified live (not just narrated): `git stash push -- src/controller/job.c src/controller/persist.c` (keeping the new test file, wal_types.h doc comment, meson.build/controller_test.c wiring), incremental rebuild via the synchronous xce-build.sh script (`nix develop ./src --command bash src/tools/xce-build.sh controller asan build-asan --incremental`) -- 1178 Tests 9 Failures: the 2 pre-existing bug-1561 test_config_repl.c failures plus exactly 7 of the 11 new tests failing with the exact expected 'must set job.pend_reasons' / 'must reset pend_reasons to NULL' mismatches (tests 1,2,4,6,8,9,10 by suite order); the other 4 new tests (backward-compat x2, the decode-edge-case test, and the clear-survives-restart test) correctly PASS unchanged under the reverted code -- verified this is expected, not a test-quality defect: those 4 scenarios are either genuinely unaffected by the fix (backward-compat) or, for the two restart-replay tests, happen to trivially satisfy their own assertion under BOTH old and new code (old code never encodes pend_reasons at all regardless of set-vs-clear, so a 'must be NULL after clear' check passes vacuously pre-fix too -- acceptable, since the SET-side restart test (10) and the direct-payload test (9) already independently prove the encode/decode mechanism itself, and test (11)'s value is in proving the CLEAR case specifically once mechanism 10 is proven, not in isolating it alone). `git stash pop`, incremental rebuild -- 1178 Tests 2 Failures (only the pre-existing bug-1561 pair, exact signature match 'Expected 2 Was 3' / 'Expected 0 Was 11954236611186853435'), all 11 new tests pass, zero new failures, zero ASAN heap-corruption findings (grepped the full test log for AddressSanitizer/heap-buffer-overflow/invalid-free/double-free/use-after-free/SEGV/Aborted -- none found). Verified no new compiler warnings in persist.c/job.c/the new test file (isolated rebuild + warning grep; the handful of pre-existing format-truncation/comment warnings in persist.c are all at unrelated line numbers, predating this change).\n\nThis was the LAST of the five field-parity gaps identified by the original xce-audit-invariants pass (bug-1678/1687/1689/1690/1691/1692) -- that invariant class (APPLY_CLEAN's entity-count+cursor-position check not proving per-field completeness, persistence.md) is now closed for job.allocs/pidinfo+start_time/exit_info+finish_time/run_usage/ckptinfo/pend_reasons.",

(2) on_fetchfile's identical proxy pattern (job.c, 10s pthread_cond_timedwait) had the same gap: handle_worker_leave() (worker.c) only ever nulled w->ep, never woke a pending fetchfile waiter proxied to that worker.",

The timeout backstop was therefore the SOLE failure-detection mechanism for a mid-wait disconnect at both sites, exactly what the Decision Log entry (itself the outcome of bug-646/648/650's original fail-loud fix) forbids.",
"fix": "Kept the timeout as a defensive backstop (per the Decision Log's exact wording: the rule is about not relying SOLELY on a timeout, not removing timeouts) and added an immediate-wake path on disconnect at both sites, mirroring bug-646/648/650's original fail-loud precedent. schedAdmin site: new int schedadmin_signal_disconnect(void) (cluster.c) -- a thin wrapper calling the existing static schedadmin_signal(-ECONNRESET, NULL) -- declared extern in cluster.h; handle_scheduler_leave() (sched.c) now calls it BEFORE acquiring c->sched.lock (calling it after would deadlock, since the OPCode_schedAdmin dispatch case holds c->sched.lock for its entire forward+wait duration; schedadmin_signal_disconnect() itself never touches c->sched.lock, only g_schedadmin_mu + the pending slot's own mu, so no new lock-ordering hazard). cluster.c's post-wait dispatch gained a new got_status==-ECONNRESET branch relaying a structured SchedAdminReply{error=\"scheduler disconnected\"}, distinguishable from both the immediate \"scheduler not connected\" rejection and the deadline's \"request timeout\". fetchfile site: fetchfile_pending_t (job.c) gained a worker_t* worker field (set in on_fetchfile() while still holding the worker's read lock, before fetchfile_register()); new void fetchfile_signal_worker_disconnect(worker_t*) (job.c, declared extern in cluster.h) walks g_fetchfile_list under g_fetchfile_mu and signals every pending entry matching the disconnected worker with status=-ECONNRESET (unlike fetchfile_signal, which is keyed by a single jobid, more than one fetchfile request can be in flight against the same worker); handle_worker_leave() (worker.c) calls it right after nulling w->ep (no lock-ordering constraint there, since on_fetchfile's wait never holds any worker_t lock). Hidden fan-out cost discovered only at link time (matches this project's established pattern for this class of change): controller_unit_test does not link the real sched.c at all (test_config_repl.c already provides its own no-op handle_scheduler_leave() stub, to avoid an unrelated on_scheduler_join()/notify() link collision with other files in that binary) -- so the primary schedAdmin regression test drives schedadmin_signal_disconnect() directly (the real, unmodified, unstubbed production function in cluster.c) rather than through handle_scheduler_leave(), and a SEPARATE small spy-based test was added in test_sched_worker_change.c (which DOES link the real sched.c) proving handle_scheduler_leave() itself calls schedadmin_signal_disconnect() exactly once, before clearing c->sched.ep. Also had to add a one-line link-satisfying schedadmin_signal_disconnect() stub to test_job_array_sched_push.c and test_sched_worker_change.c (the two standalone binaries that link sched.c without cluster.c), mirroring their existing check_worker_() stub precedent.",

Putting checkpoint's genuinely unbounded write_snapshot() (held under apply_pump_lock) on the identical N-thread pool would risk a worker thread parked on apply_pump_lock for the whole snapshot-write duration, starving the pool's liveness-critical capacity (commit continuations, apply-pump drains) -- exactly the failure mode ha-async-io.md's own table entry warns about (\"vtaskmgr must NOT do: long/unbounded blocking I/O (snapshot transfer, config-push) -- starves the pool\").

New feature flag g_persist_checkpoint_offload (persist_set_checkpoint_offload_for_test/persist_checkpoint_offload_enabled, persist.h/persist.c) defaults ON (1) -- unlike the still-experimental catchup/demotion offloads (default OFF pending an unrelated real test-fixture hang, bug-1429), this reuses an ALREADY-PROVEN-SAFE call: persist_checkpoint() already runs on this same slow lane in production today via ha_snapshot_do_send()->snapshot_lane_fn (snapshot offload also default ON), so apply_pump_lock's acquisition from a slow-lane thread is exercised in production every day, not new surface. persist_checkpoint()'s own atomic_exchange guard (checkpoint_in_progress) remains the single-flight barrier preventing double-run with the snapshot-send path, exactly as it already does today. Verified no existing controller_unit_test fixture depends on the delaymgr trigger path completing synchronously (test_ha_core_safety.c deliberately pins max_wal_records=1u<<30 specifically to prevent ever exercising it in a live-cluster fixture) -- ruling out the catchup/demotion-class 'uninitialized slow lane + a synchronous downstream waiter hangs' hazard, since checkpoint's trigger is pure fire-and-forget. Inline-fallback + WARN on genuine slowlane_submit failure only (not -EAGAIN/-EEXIST, both non-failure per slowlane's own documented contract) -- a scheduled checkpoint is never silently dropped. New regression suite test_persist_checkpoint_offload.c (3 tests, mirrors test_ha_liveness.c's reconnect/configpush offload gate-probe pattern): test_checkpoint_offload_trigger_returns_promptly (GREEN: trigger returns <200ms while the real body is observably parked on a slow-lane worker thread, not the caller's), test_checkpoint_inline_blocks_delaymgr_thread_RED (flag OFF reproduces the pre-fix inline-blocking behavior on demand, permanent regression guard), test_checkpoint_no_cluster_runs_inline (defensive NULL-cluster fallback). RED-phase independently confirmed by temporarily forcing checkpoint_task_fn's pre-fix always-inline behavior (a one-line `if (1) ||` probe) and rebuilding: the GREEN test then hung indefinitely (process had to be kill -9'd, PID confirmed via ps as the stuck controller_unit_test binary) -- proving the test genuinely detects the violation, not a tautology. Probe reverted (git diff --stat confirmed clean re-application of the real fix) and the full suite re-run GREEN: 1184 Tests, identical 2 pre-existing failures both runs (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions Expected 2 Was 3, test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config Expected 0 Was <garbage uint64>, test_config_repl.c, both matching bug-1561's well-documented overlayfs fdatasync-EIO artifact signature exactly -- 0 NEW failures. Live HA smoke test (real checkpoint trigger against a running deployed cluster under load) was scoped out given budget already spent on the lock-order investigation, which was this fix's primary risk -- flagged explicitly in the final report rather than silently skipped, as a reasonable follow-up soak.",

"error_message": "Found via the mandatory live HA chaotic soak (xce-audit-invariants controller campaign, Step 4) -- NOT caused by any of the 9 fixes that campaign made (bug-1684/1687/1689/1690/1691/1692/1693/1694), all of which are in src/controller/{ha,persist,job,cluster,sched,worker}.c; this bug is in myapp.c, untouched by any of them. 10-round --chaotic soak: every single round after the first shows 'NO new primary within window (possible election stall)'; ctrl-1's own log shows, on EVERY restart after the first boot, 'myapp_run: leader already known after startup delay (voted_for=ctrl-1, voted_term=1, raft_term=1, primary_fd=-1) -- skipping own election' -- primary_fd=-1 proves there is no live connection to any primary, yet the node skips holding its own election anyway. ctrl-2/ctrl-3 are simultaneously stuck in a permanent ~3s retry loop ('cluster_init_phase2: cluster_config not loaded yet', rc=-22, the bug-1477 self-rescheduling retry firing forever without ever succeeding). The cluster never elects a new, live, functioning primary after the very first election of the cluster's lifetime.",
"file": "src/controller/myapp.c (myapp_run's bootstrap check, call site only); src/controller/startup_validation.c (myapp_leader_already_known, the extracted+fixed decision function -- placed here, not myapp.c, so it links into controller_unit_test); src/controller/testsuite/test_ha_startup.c (7 new regression tests)",
"root_cause": "myapp_run()'s post-stagger 'is a leader already known' bootstrap check (myapp.c ~361-384) has two independent fallback conditions that can each unilaterally set leader_known=1: `c.ha.raft.term > 0` and `c.ha.primary_ctrl_fd >= 0`. The comment's stated intent (lines 345-353) is to catch a narrow race -- 'iomgr was NOT running during the nap ... but the winner's ctrlhello has already established the control channel' -- i.e. genuine NEW raft activity processed during THIS boot's startup-stagger nanosleep. But `ha_restore_term()` (bug-1684's neighbor, unmodified by that fix) restores ha->term from ha-term.bin BEFORE this check ever runs, as part of normal boot -- so `raft.term > 0` is trivially true on EVERY restart after the cluster's first-ever election in its entire lifetime, regardless of whether any NEW raft traffic was processed this boot at all. The check cannot distinguish 'term advanced because I just received a real, fresh vote/heartbeat during this nap' (genuine liveness evidence) from 'term is nonzero because I loaded an old value off disk at startup' (tells us nothing about whether ANY leader is currently reachable). Consequence: after the cluster's first election, EVERY node, on EVERY subsequent restart, unconditionally takes the goto skip_election fast path and never calls ha_start_election_async again -- so no node ever re-asserts leadership through a real raft election, and the cluster permanently loses the ability to elect a NEW primary after any restart, however far in the past the original election was. This is a related-but-distinct gap from bug-1477 (which fixed a stranded node never RETRYING cluster_init_phase2 after one failed attempt -- that retry loop is confirmed still firing correctly here, every ~3s, exactly as bug-1477 designed -- but the retry can never succeed because the underlying cause, no election is ever held to produce a real live primary to push config from, was never addressed).",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-25). Root cause confirmed exactly as hypothesized: myapp_run()'s raft.term>0 fallback (myapp.c ~372) is trivially true on every restart after the cluster's first-ever election, since ha_restore_term() (called from cluster_init_phase1, strictly before ha_init_raft()/the startup-stagger nap) restores a persisted, monotonically-nondecreasing term from ha-term.bin, and Raft terms never reset.\n\nFix: extracted the inline check into a new, unit-testable function myapp_leader_already_known(ha, my_name, term_at_boot) -- placed in startup_validation.c (NOT myapp.c) purely so it links into controller_unit_test, which meson's controller_unit_test_src deliberately excludes myapp.c/main.c from (myapp_run is an untestable integration entry point requiring a live network socket) but already builds startup_validation.c for the sibling validate_* helpers -- myapp.c now just forward-declares and calls it, mirroring the pre-existing validate_startup_config() precedent exactly. myapp_run() captures `term_at_boot = c.ha.raft.term` immediately after ha_init_raft() seeds ha->raft.term from the just-restored ha->term -- strictly BEFORE the startup-stagger nap -- and the fallback check now requires `ha->raft.term > term_at_boot` (a genuine ADVANCE during THIS boot's nap, i.e. real vote-request/heartbeat traffic actually processed by iomgr via raft_on_vote_request's/raft_on_append_entries_request's UpdateTerm steps) instead of the old bare `> 0`. The voted_for_name/vft==cur check and the primary_ctrl_fd>=0 check are UNTOUCHED, per the task's scope boundary.\n\nVerification of the 5 required questions:\n1. Ordering confirmed via direct source read: ha_restore_term() runs inside cluster_init_phase1 (myapp_run Step 1, ~line 67), strictly before ha_init_raft() (~line 327) and the stagger nanosleep (~line 333-343) -- on every boot including restarts, confirmed via a live log line 'HA: restored term=0 from .../ha-term.bin' printed inside cluster_init_phase1, always preceding 'HA: raft initialized (...term=N...)' from ha_init_raft.\n2. No other path can legitimately advance ha->raft.term between the snapshot and the check in a way the fix would wrongly treat as stale: the only writer after ha_init_raft() is raft_cb_persist, fired only from raft_on_vote_request / raft_on_append_entries_request / raft_start_election -- all driven by genuine incoming or self-initiated raft traffic processed by iomgr during the nap, exactly the signal the check intends to detect (confirmed by reading raft.c's UpdateTerm steps in full).\n3. First-ever-boot preserved: ha_restore_term() leaves term at 0 with no ha-term.bin, so term_at_boot=0, identical operative comparison to the old `raft.term > 0` check on a true first boot -- covered by 2 new regression tests.\n4. No new safety-relevant failure mode: the 'spurious own election while a leader is genuinely live but unobserved' race this fix re-exposes on every restart is the IDENTICAL race the cluster's first-ever boot already ran through before this fix existed (term_at_boot was always 0 pre-first-election) -- not a new class of risk, and Election Safety is unaffected (rests entirely on votedFor + majority inside the untouched raft library, never on this advisory bootstrap check).\n5. voted_for_name/vft==cur deliberately left untouched per scope, but flagged in the code comment as NOT obviously immune to the same class of question (a restored (voted_for_term,term) pair is exactly as internally consistent as a live one). Investigated empirically via the live soak below rather than touched speculatively: in both the baseline and fixed runs, this path never fires for ctrl-2/ctrl-3 in the --chaotic scenario at all, because the driver only kills/restarts the current primary -- ctrl-2/ctrl-3 run continuously and never re-enter myapp_run(), so their eventual takeover goes entirely through the separate, pre-existing, untouched liveness-watchdog/PreVote/RDHUP-failover subsystem (ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup / ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask), not through this bootstrap check. No compounding defect was exercised or found; flagged as a residual, unverified theoretical concern for a scenario this soak doesn't cover (a STANDBY node itself restarting after remembering a now-permanently-dead remote leader).\n\nTDD: RED confirmed by extracting the function with the OLD `raft.term > 0` logic first (marked with a RED/GREEN comment), adding 7 new tests to test_ha_startup.c (test_bug1695_stale_restored_term_does_not_skip_election is the core regression), and rebuilding -- 2 of the 7 genuinely FAILED ('Expected 0 Was 1'), exactly as predicted (the self-vote test also failed under the old logic, since raft.term>0 trivially short-circuited it too -- an incidental but correct extra confirmation of the bug's reach). Applied the one-line semantic fix (`> 0` -> `> term_at_boot`); rebuilt -- all 7 new tests GREEN, full controller suite at 1191 tests with exactly the 2 pre-existing bug-1561 failures (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions, test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config -- identical Expected/Was values to bug-1561's own documented signature, 0 new failures).\n\nMANDATORY live soak (6-round --chaotic, fresh ASAN binaries) -- run TWICE for a rigorous A/B: once with the fix, once with myapp.c/startup_validation.c/test_ha_startup.c git-stashed back to the pre-fix original (same binaries otherwise, same scratch-dir mechanics). BASELINE (unfixed): term frozen at 4 for the ENTIRE 6-round run (never advances even once after initial cold-boot settling); 'NO new primary within window' on 6/6 rounds; ctrl-2/ctrl-3's logs show ZERO CTRL_PRIMARY/PreVote-round activity anywhere in their entire lifetime -- a real, direct confirmation of the reported permanent-stall symptom. FIXED: term genuinely progresses 1->2->3->4->7 across the run; ctrl-2 (a DIFFERENT node from the original ctrl-1) achieved a real, log-verified CTRL_PRIMARY transition via a won PreVote round + real election at term=3 -- something that never happens even once anywhere in the baseline's logs. This is direct, unambiguous proof the core bug-1695 symptom (permanent inability to elect a NEW primary after any restart, once the cluster has ever held its first election) is fixed. committed_divergence (walcompare, the authoritative WAL-level check) stayed 0 in BOTH runs.\n\nResidual, honestly-reported finding: the FIXED run's chaotic verdict was `committed_job_loss=6, result=FAIL` (baseline was `committed_job_loss=0, result=PASS` -- matching this task's own prediction that the baseline passes trivially by never actually re-electing anyone). Root-cause investigation (waldump on all 3 nodes' raw WAL files): the SAME single jobid ('0-15-1787671840-0') was reported missing on every affected round, and does NOT appear in ANY of the 3 nodes' on-disk WALs at all -- it traces to the cluster's very first cold-boot settling window (timestamp ~1787671840, well before round 1), during which ctrl-1's FIRST-ever election (with peers still config-less, config_tag=0) produced ambiguous vote-eligibility/config-bootstrap behavior unrelated to this fix (confirmed via ctrl-1's own log: its very first boot conceded to CTRL_STANDBY, never wrote that job to its own WAL). This strongly resembles a pre-existing, already-documented false-positive class (bug-1487: 'reachable primary reports job missing... post-election own-term commit-barrier lag while a peer is still catching up' -- verify_classify's own in-code comment names this exact class), newly and more frequently exposed because this fix, for the first time, lets the chaotic driver's overlapping-kill design exercise GENUINE repeated elections at all (the baseline's frozen-forever cluster never gave bug-1487's window a chance to occur more than once, if ever). NOT independently re-fixed in this session (out of this fix's myapp.c-only scope, and .claude/skills/xce-test-ha/run-ha-soak.sh is test-harness tooling, not controller code) -- flagged here as a genuine, needs-owner follow-up: either extend bug-1487's verify_classify retry margin further, or investigate whether the initial cold-boot config-bootstrap vote-eligibility path can genuinely lose a pre-config-push submission. Confidence in the CORE fix remains high (direct log proof of a new node winning a real election; walcompare clean in both runs); confidence in the chaotic verdict's exact job-loss root cause is medium (waldump-verified absence + a highly plausible, precedented explanation, but not traced to a specific line the way the core fix was).",

"file": "src/controller/ha.c",
"root_cause": "raft_cb_become_leader() computes the promotion WAL-truncation floor (line ~1658-1662: trunc_floor = ha_promotion_truncate_floor(safe_lsn, persist_durable_floor(&c->persist)); persist_truncate_wal_above(&c->persist, trunc_floor)) and evaluates the whole promotion-eligibility gate (durable_floor/truncated/apply_verdict, ~line 1699-1823) BEFORE cluster_init_phase2() -- the ONLY call that invokes persist_recover() for this process's first-ever boot -- which does not run until is_first_boot handling at line ~1873-1899, further down in the SAME function. persist_durable_floor()/persist_recovery_truncated()/persist_apply_verdict() all read fields persist_recover() is responsible for populating from the real on-disk WAL; before that call, a freshly persist_init()'d struct reports durable_lsn=0 (bug-1445's comment at line 1901 already flagged this exact 'gate evaluated blind before recovery' hazard for ONE flag -- persist_apply_resource_fenced -- with a narrow re-check-after-phase2 patch, but the far more consequential durable_floor/truncation-floor computation was never covered by that fix). With durable_floor=0 (bogus, pre-recovery) and safe_lsn=0 (every voter, including self, ALSO advertised its LSN via persist_durable_floor() before its own recovery ran -- myapp.c:324-329, ha_candidate_advertise_lsn), ha_promotion_truncate_floor(0,0)=0 and persist_truncate_wal_above(p, 0) physically ftruncates/unlinks the real on-disk WAL segments down to LSN 0/1 -- destroying committed job data that persist_recover(), had it run FIRST, would have correctly reported as durable and protected via the bug-1060 floor guard. This scenario (a node RESTARTS with real durable data on disk, then immediately WINS its own promotion on that same boot, before its own recovery has run) was unreachable before bug-1695's fix -- previously a restarted node's stale-but-nonzero persisted term made it always skip its own election and defer to a peer, so it never hit is_first_boot-during-become_leader with real data at stake. bug-1695 correctly restored real re-election on restart and, in doing so, newly exposed this pre-existing boot-ordering flaw. A genuine Leader Completeness / bug-1060-guard-defeat, not a test-harness artifact: confirmed via direct waldump on-disk evidence plus source-level trace of the read-before-recover ordering.",
"fix": "FIXED. Reordered raft_cb_become_leader() (ha.c) so cluster_init_phase2()/persist_recover() (is_first_boot path) runs BEFORE the promotion-eligibility gate and the promotion-truncation-floor computation, so persist_durable_floor()/persist_recovery_truncated()/persist_apply_verdict() always reflect this boot's REAL recovered WAL state before any eligibility/truncation decision reads them. 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 moved to run after phase2. Original RED test hypothesis (physical WAL destruction via truncate) was disproven by source tracing (persist_truncate_wal_above's own no-op guard plus persist_init's current_lsn=1 reset make that specific mechanism impossible); the REAL, provable defect was the promotion-eligibility gate wrongly judging a genuinely corrupt/divergent node ELIGIBLE because it read persist_recovery_truncated()/persist_apply_verdict() before recovery ran. New regression test test_first_boot_promotion_refuses_when_own_first_recovery_finds_corruption (CRC-corrupts a real on-disk WAL entry, restarts, promotes) confirmed RED against unfixed code (wrongly became CTRL_PRIMARY despite RECOVER_TRUNCATED) and GREEN against the fix (correctly refused).

Live proof: full 10-round --chaotic soak under ASAN (build-asan-1696repro) PASSED (VERDICT mode=chaotic rounds=10 jobs=33 committed_divergence=0 committed_job_loss=0 result=PASS) and full 10-round --sequential soak PASSED (PASS: 10 rounds, 33 jobs submitted, zero job loss; all 3 nodes led (ctrl-1,ctrl-2,ctrl-3)) -- both legs of the audit skill's Step 4 mandate satisfied.

"file": "src/controller/job.c, src/controller/persist.c",
"root_cause": "dispatch_a_job_() (job.c:1686, scheduler-dispatch-commit task 3.1) synchronously sets j->job.state = JOB_STAT_RUN at DISPATCH time, before the worker ever reports back -- this is a deliberate, already-made semantic change: the controller decides RUN at dispatch, it no longer waits for a worker ack. When the worker's LATER on_job_start()/WAL_JOB_START fact commits and apply_committed_entry()'s live apply pump (persist.c, shared WAL_JOB_START/FINISH/STOP/RESUME/RUSAGE/CKPT/PREASON/DISPATCH case group starting ~persist.c:4430) processes it, apply_job_update_transition(j, JOB_STAT_RUN) (job.c:2779) sees job->job.state already == JOB_STAT_RUN (set by dispatch, moments/seconds earlier) and returns JOB_TRANSITION_NOOP_DUPLICATE (job.c:2795-2799), never JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED. The wire-carried start_time/pidinfo decode/adopt block bug-1687 added (persist.c ~4602-4637) is gated on `result == JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED` (persist.c:4594), so for WAL_JOB_START it can now NEVER run, for any job -- start_time and pidinfo (pids/pgids/exdata) both silently stay at their zero-initialized defaults forever. This is the exact same class of bug already fixed for WAL_JOB_RUSAGE/WAL_JOB_CKPT/WAL_JOB_PREASON in this identical function (their own comments describe it verbatim: 'gating this adoption on result==JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED ... would make it dead code ... decode/adopt unconditionally') -- WAL_JOB_START was never given the same treatment because bug-1687 (which added the start_time/pidinfo wire fields) predates/was unaware of the dispatch-time RUN semantic collision. bug-1679's own comment (job.c:1709-1719) already independently documented and worked around the SAME root collision for a different symptom (the apiserver update-notification hook silently not firing on this same NOOP_DUPLICATE path) -- the two symptoms were never connected as the same root cause until now.",
"fix": "FIXED -- start_time moved to dispatch-owned, pidinfo adoption made unconditional, exactly the confirmed scope. (1) job.c dispatch_a_job_() (job.c:1696-1708) stamps j->job.start_time = time(NULL) synchronously alongside j->job.state = JOB_STAT_RUN, under the same write lock, before j->job.allocs/persist_submit_job_dispatch_fact(). (2) wal_types.h adds WAL_JOB_DISPATCH_HAS_START_TIME_FLAG (new _pad bit, mirroring WAL_JOB_FAIL_STAGE_FLAG/WAL_JOB_UPDATE_POSTDONE_MARK). persist_submit_job_dispatch_fact() (persist.c:7670, persist.h:1465) gained a `uint64_t start_time` parameter; payload is now [wal_jobstate_t header, _pad=FLAG][uint64_t start_time][JobAlloc bytes] -- flag-gated, not length-based, since JobAlloc's own variable length would make a length heuristic ambiguous against the old header+alloc-only shape. (3) Both apply seams' WAL_JOB_DISPATCH cases (apply_committed_entry persist.c:4716 branch; apply_wal_entry persist.c:4183 case; restore_job_dispatch_state job.c:801) decode/adopt start_time when the flag is set, else fall through to the pre-fix alloc-only decode untouched. (4) apply_committed_entry's WAL_JOB_START handling (persist.c:4627-4660): start_time touching removed entirely (dead-code branch and its time(NULL) fallback deleted); pidinfo decode/adopt moved OUT of the `result == JOB_TRANSITION_APPLIED` gate to run unconditionally, mirroring the RUSAGE/CKPT/PREASON blocks in the same function. apply_wal_entry's WAL_JOB_START case (persist.c:4105) and restore_job_start_state() (job.c:840, dropped the start_time parameter) likewise stop touching start_time; pidinfo there was already unconditional (this seam never calls apply_job_update_transition, so it never had the NOOP-gating hazard). persist_submit_job_start_fact()'s wire format is UNCHANGED (still writes start_time for on-disk layout continuity) -- only the READ side stopped consuming it. Pre-fix WAL_JOB_DISPATCH/WAL_JOB_START entries (_pad flag unset) fall back to the exact pre-fix behavior, an accepted one-time migration-boundary gap consistent with every other fix in this campaign. TDD: RED confirmed by temporarily reverting just the two defect lines (job.c's start_time stamp; persist.c's pidinfo gate) and running the full suite -- 5 genuine new failures (test_dc_success_stamps_start_time_synchronously, test_dc_success_appends_wal_job_dispatch_durably, test_wjs_apply_committed_entry_adopts_pidinfo_when_already_run_from_dispatch, test_wjs_restart_replay_recovers_dispatch_start_time_and_started_pidinfo, test_ace_job_start_sets_start_time) plus the pre-existing baseline (2 known bug-1561 test_config_repl.c failures + 1 concurrent bug-1696 test_job_array_replay_fence.c failure, both left untouched). GREEN after restoring the fix: rebuilt clean (0 compile errors) in an isolated dir (avoided the live HA soak's build-asan), full controller_unit_test run 3x direct (ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0, matching this binary's own meson.build env) -- consistently \"1198 Tests 3 Failures 0 Ignored\", exactly the known baseline, 0 new failures. Live manual verification: single-node controller+scheduler+xcecd_virtual worker deployed via deploy-ha.sh (isolated port 19991, isolated workdir, no interference with the concurrent bug-1696 soak); 4 real xce_test jobsub->dispatch->finish cycles via the REPL all showed nonzero StartTime in `joblist` immediately (e.g. jobid 0-14-...-55018: StartTime 1787718938, matching SubmitTime). pidinfo's live collision path (jstart is a worker-mode-only REPL command, racy/awkward to trigger against a job a real worker is also concurrently finishing) was left to the deterministic unit tests above rather than a flaky live race -- covered exhaustively there at the exact apply_committed_entry()/on_job_start() call sites.

Meanwhile ctrl-2/ctrl-3 were actively, healthily replicating with each other (real AppendEntries traffic, LSN steadily advancing) -- they formed a working 2-of-3 quorum excluding ctrl-1 entirely. `xceadmin scheduler record status` failed with 'no primary available: timed out contacting localhost:9901' (ctrl-1's own client port) even though `xce_test`'s REPL joblist worked fine against the real 2-node quorum.",

"root_cause": "PARTIALLY CONFIRMED, NOT FULLY ROOT-CAUSED. Ruled out as a test-harness/environment artifact: independently confirmed via a completely fresh, isolated 3-node deploy (~/tmp/xce-ha-fresh-repro, same build.dbg binaries, same run-ha-soak.sh topology) that the SAME symptom (impossible term jump, standby permanently failing cluster_init_phase2) reproduced ONCE due to a genuine same-session zombie-process port collision (see cerebrum.md's 2026-08-26 Do-Not-Repeat entry) -- but that specific mechanism does NOT apply to /tmp/xce-ha-deploy itself: confirmed via `ss -tlnp` that no live process holds ports 9901-9903 at investigation time, and no OTHER unrelated cluster shares those specific ports (9991-9993 was the colliding zombie's port range, unrelated). Direct on-disk evidence via `waldump` on the STOPPED cluster's data dirs CONFIRMS a real, non-artifactual divergence: ctrl-1's WAL has only 138 entries (lsn 1..138, all term=2, CRC chain intact, no gaps) while ctrl-2 has 2648 entries and ctrl-3 has 2641 entries (both showing term=3 activity in ha-term.bin, one of which -- ctrl-3 -- legitimately recorded voted_for_name='ctrl-2', a NORMAL vote-grant record, not corruption). This proves ctrl-1 was genuinely functioning (as primary, at term=2, given the job data the user's own joblist output showed) up through WAL entry 138, then something caused it to lose contact with both peers, a new election (term=3) happened among ctrl-2/ctrl-3 without it, and ctrl-1's own RECONNECT mechanism (ha_connect_finish_peer, dispatched via the SlowLane per raft-drive-async task 2.1's offload design) never once succeeded in re-establishing a working connection for the remainder of the run, despite logging its own SUCCESS path (endpoint_connect()+iomgr_monitor() both returning >=0) on every single attempt. This strongly suggests the bug is NOT in the initial connect() call itself (which appears to succeed at the socket/iomgr-registration level every time) but in whatever HIGHER-LEVEL protocol step is supposed to follow a successful low-level connect (completing a vote/ctrlhello handshake, registering the peer in standby_endpoints, or some per-peer state that should be cleared/retried differently after a genuine peer-loss) -- that step silently never completes or never gets attempted, so the SAME low-level connect()+iomgr_monitor() cycle repeats every ~3s forever without progress. Could NOT be reproduced live/interactively -- no debugger/ptrace access to the (already-stopped) real deployment's processes was available; this analysis is from static log/WAL evidence only, not a live capture of the actual failure in progress. FURTHER REPRO ATTEMPTS (2026-08-26, all failed to reproduce): (a) fresh 3-node deploy, kill+restart both standbys simultaneously while primary stays alive -- clean reconnect both times; (b) same, with continuous background jobsub load throughout -- clean reconnect (one transient ECONNREFUSED-then-retry-succeeds cycle observed, not a stuck state); (c) user-supplied exact recipe (submit a mixed array of jobs giving RUN/PEND/DONE states, then xceadmin scheduler record status) repeated 10x against a genuinely healthy full-component deploy (3x controller + worker + scheduler + xceadmin) -- succeeded cleanly every time; (d) 8x fresh-boot-only attempts (no artificial kills at all) immediately running reslist/workerlist/jobsub/joblist in sequence within the first ~5s of boot, matching the user's report that the real failure occurred within MINUTES of start-all.sh with no explicit kill -- all 8 clean, no crash, no elevated reconnect-retry counts. Total: 20+ reproduction attempts across 4 distinct scenario shapes, zero reproductions. This is a genuinely rare, timing-sensitive condition, not reliably triggerable by any tested scenario shape so far.",
"fix": "NOT YET ATTEMPTED. Needs a live reproduction with process-level tracing (gdb/strace on a debug build) or targeted new logging in ha_connect_finish_peer/reconnect_lane_fn's post-connect handshake path to see exactly which step silently fails to progress after a genuine peer-loss (RDHUP) event, as distinct from initial cold-boot connection establishment (which DOES work correctly, per the fresh-repro soak's clean PASS with normal kill/restart/reconverge cycles). Next investigation step: reproduce a genuine mid-run peer-loss (not a driver-initiated kill, which already reconverges fine per the fresh-repro soak's PASS) -- e.g. a transient network blip or a peer restart landing in an unlucky window -- under gdb/strace, and trace ha_connect_finish_peer's full call chain including whatever runs after endpoint_connect()/iomgr_monitor() succeed (the ctrlhello/vote-channel handshake) to find where it silently stalls.",

Driver reported 'FAIL: no primary elected within ~90s' as a consequence (ctrl-1 never came back; ctrl-2 was subsequently Killed by cleanup).",
"file": "src/controller/ha.c or src/controller/cluster.c (exact function not identified -- crash occurred somewhere in the ctrlstatus request-handling path shortly after raft_cb_become_follower/first_boot=1)",
"root_cause": "NOT ROOT-CAUSED -- occurred exactly ONCE and could not be reproduced despite two dedicated repro attempts: (1) re-running the identical build.dbg chaotic soak under run-ha-soak.sh's built-in GDB_WRAP=ctrl-1 debug seam caught only a benign SIGPIPE (gdb's own default stop-on-SIGPIPE behavior firing on a normal peer-disconnect-during-TLS-write event that the real code already ignores via signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN) at netio.c:1250 -- confirmed this was a gdb artifact, not the real crash, since production code never sees this signal); (2) a manual gdb session with `handle SIGPIPE nostop noprint pass` set before `run` (correctly letting SIGPIPE pass through), driving 15+ rapid ctrlstatus probes against a freshly-booted ctrl-1 via xce_test's REPL (mirroring the exact probe pattern run-ha-soak.sh's own wait-primary/discover_primary functions use), did NOT reproduce any crash. (3) A full, from-scratch 10-round --chaotic soak (33 jobs, 10 kill/elect cycles) run under a fresh ASAN rebuild (src/build-asan-1696repro) completed with a clean PASS (committed_divergence=0 committed_job_loss=0) and no SIGSEGV/ASAN report at all. This strongly suggests either a genuinely rare, narrow-window race (possibly specific to cold dynamic-linker/first-request timing that a debug or ASAN build's different memory layout/timing perturbs away) or an environment-specific fluke from that one specific boot -- NOT a deterministic, reliably-triggerable defect. No core file was accessible for postmortem gdb analysis (systemd-coredump is configured as the core_pattern handler but coredumpctl is not installed/reachable in this sandbox). FURTHER NOTE (2026-08-26): did not recur across the same 20+ reproduction attempts made while investigating bug-1698 (fresh boots, standby kill/restart cycles, load, exact user recipe replay) -- still zero occurrences since the single original sighting. FURTHER NOTE (2026-08-26, cont.): USER-SUPPLIED core dumps from the real deployment (4 core.xce_controller.*.zst files today) confirm this is a real, recurring heap corruption (glibc malloc_printerr: \"unaligned tcache chunk detected\", detected inside endpoint_get()/calloc for a 312-byte endpoint_t -- the abort site is downstream of the actual corruption, not the cause). Confirmed the crash DID occur at least once in this session too (attempt 7 of an earlier 8-attempt loop) but was MISSED by an earlier flawed stderr-grep detection method (setsid nohup ... & disown fully detaches a process from the shells job table, so bash never prints a Aborted/Segmentation fault line for it -- a real methodology gap, not evidence of rarity). Redone with PROPER job-control-based exit-code detection: 15 attempts under a fresh ASAN build (build-asan-1696repro) = 0 reproductions; 15 more attempts with all 3 nodes wrapped in a properly-SIGPIPE-configured gdb session against build.dbg (where it previously reproduced) = 0 reproductions. Total 30 further attempts, zero catches. Hypothesis: ASANs different allocator/timing may suppress the race entirely (consistent with 0/15 under ASAN); build.dbg without a live gdb/gdb overhead may still need many more attempts or a specific concurrent-connection pattern not yet isolated. bug-1698s stuck-reconnect symptom and this heap corruption are plausibly the SAME root cause (both point at endpoint_t lifecycle -- corrupted/UAFd endpoint state could equally explain a connection that never completes ITS handshake). Next step if revisited: run MANY more attempts under build.dbg with proper exit-code detection (not ASAN, which appears to suppress it), or request the user run the real deployment under a debug build with core dumps enabled and share the NEXT core file for backtrace analysis the same way this session did.",
"fix": "NOT ATTEMPTED -- cannot fix an unreproduced crash responsibly. If this recurs, capture a live gdb session (with SIGPIPE explicitly passed through, per this investigation's corrected GDB_WRAP-equivalent technique) or install/access a working coredumpctl-equivalent BEFORE the crashing process is cleaned up, to get a real backtrace with symbols. Also worth checking core_pattern/ulimit -c in the actual execution environment ahead of time so a future occurrence leaves a usable core file automatically.",

"error_message": "User-reported: `xceadmin scheduler record status` (and by the same mechanism, `record start`/`record stop`) fails with `Error: controller returned status -10014` whenever the `--controller`/default address happens to point at a controller that is currently a STANDBY, not the primary. User's expectation: 'xceadmin/libxce should find the correct primary to talk to it' instead of surfacing the raw rejection.",
"file": "src/controller/cluster.c (myreq_handler, ~line 406-414)",
"root_cause": "FULLY ROOT-CAUSED, gap is server-side only. `-10014` is `E_XCE_STANDBY` (errnox.h, XCE_ERRNO_BASE+13) -- ha_dispatch_gate() (ha.c:4745-4775) correctly rejects OPCode_schedAdmin on a CTRL_STANDBY node (it is absent from that role's opcode allow-list, by design -- schedAdmin is a primary-only forward-to-scheduler operation). The gate's generic caller in myreq_handler (cluster.c:406-414) sends the rejection reply with `reply.status = rc; reply.data_which = RequestReply_data_nodata;` and NEVER calls fill_redirect_reply() (join.c:27-31, the exact same one-line helper OPCode_join's handler already uses successfully) -- so redirectHost/redirectPort are left at their zero-value defaults on EVERY dispatch-gate rejection, for EVERY opcode, not just schedAdmin (OPCode_upgradeConfig has the identical, already-documented gap -- see test_e2e_live_ha_push.py's module docstring, confirmed 2026-07-30-era). Critically, this is NOT a client-side deficiency: xceadmin's redirect-following client logic is ALREADY fully implemented, generic/opcode-agnostic, and well-tested (`xceadmin.discovery.follow_redirects()`, with a full test suite covering 1-hop/3-hop/too-many-hops/timeout cases; `xceadmin.scheduler._send_admin_request()` already calls it for every record_start/stop/status call). `_redirect_target()` (discovery.py:80-89) correctly requires BOTH redirectHost and redirectPort to be non-empty/non-zero to treat a reply as a redirect -- given the gate-rejection reply supplies neither, the client correctly concludes there is nothing to follow and surfaces the bare rejection status as-is. The client is not 'giving up' -- it is working exactly per its documented contract given the reply it receives; the whole path already works end-to-end against a properly-behaving server (test_cli_scheduler_record_start_follows_redirect_to_primary already exercises the client side against a mock that DOES send a redirect).",
"fix": "PARTIALLY FIXED (2026-08-26), live verification FAILS -- see bug-1701 for the blocking root cause, do not close this bug until that is resolved. IMPLEMENTED, unit-tested, and CORRECT exactly as scoped: myreq_handler's generic ha_dispatch_gate rejection path (cluster.c ~410-433) now calls fill_redirect_reply(&reply, &c->ha) when, and only when, rc == -XCE_ERR_STANDBY -- confirmed via ha_dispatch_gate's full body (ha.c:4573-4781) that -XCE_ERR_STANDBY (CTRL_STANDBY's default-case rejection, ha.c:4774) and -XCE_ERR_NOT_READY (CTRL_INIT/CTRL_ELECTING, and CTRL_PRIMARY's config-serve-fence / upgrade-materialization-fence / no-write-quorum branches) are the ONLY two nonzero codes the gate can return -- no third code path exists. -XCE_ERR_NOT_READY is deliberately excluded (no settled primary to redirect to in those states). RED/GREEN proof: added test_schedadmin_standby_with_known_primary_redirects (FAILED pre-fix with 'Expected 10.0.1.7 Was ''', PASSED post-fix) and test_schedadmin_standby_no_known_primary_no_redirect (regression companion, passes in both states) to test_sched_admin_dispatch.c, driving the real myreq_handler via myreq_handler_for_test with OPCode_schedAdmin + CTRL_STANDBY role. Full controller_unit_test: 1200 Tests, 2 Failures both times (pre- and post-fix) -- exactly the pre-existing bug-1561 overlayfs pair (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions, test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config), zero new failures. Encode-path NULL-safety CONFIRMED (not assumed): ha_state_t.primary_host is a fixed char[XCE_MAXNAME_LEN] buffer embedded in ha_state_t (ha.h:161), never a pointer, so its address is never NULL; encode_RequestReply (controller.capnp.c:13777-13786) gates strictly on `s->redirect_host != NULL` and falls back to an explicit empty string/0 otherwise; decode_RequestReply (controller.capnp.c:13841) strdup()s the wire text unconditionally (so a client-side redirect_host is always a real, non-NULL, possibly-empty C string, never NULL) -- an unknown primary therefore safely round-trips as redirectHost='' / redirectPort=0, which xceadmin's discovery.py _redirect_target() (host and port both required truthy) already correctly treats as 'no redirect, use this reply as-is'. No NULL-pointer/crash risk anywhere in this path, confirmed by code inspection of every hop, not assumed. LIVE VERIFICATION FAILS, however: deployed a fresh 3-node cluster twice (deploy-ha.sh, controller+worker+scheduler via scripts/start-all.sh) -- once on a binary built from this fix (git stash of cluster.c to produce a clean before-binary, git stash pop to restore it for the after-binary; xce_test ctrlstatus confirmed ctrl-1 elected primary, ctrl-2/ctrl-3 standby, in both deploys). `xceadmin scheduler record status --controller localhost:9992` (a standby) against BOTH the pre-fix and the post-fix binary produced the IDENTICAL result: 'Error: controller returned status -10014', exit 1, no 'redirected: ...' line on stderr either time -- i.e. this fix has ZERO observable effect on the user-reported symptom in a real deployment. Root cause of the no-op: ha_state_t.primary_host/primary_port (ha.h:161-162) are NEVER WRITTEN by any production code path on a standby -- confirmed by grepping every .c file in src/ for an assignment site (none exists outside test fixtures, which set it manually) and by ctrlstatus.c's own pre-existing doc comment (line 38/95: 'the vestigial, never-written ha->primary_host') -- so fill_redirect_reply() always sees an empty string / 0 on a real standby, in every state, permanently, not just during the 'hasn't learned yet' transient window this bug's own original root-cause writeup anticipated and asked to be verified. This is independently corroborated by the ALREADY-CLOSED bug-854 (this bug's own related_bugs entry), whose root_cause section states the identical fact ('primary_host is vestigial/never-written') and whose fix explicitly says 'Deliberately NOT adding server-side primaryName source -- it is only a latency optimization; the client rotation fix alone resolves the hang' for the DIFFERENT ctrlstatus/client-rotation code path. New implication surfaced by this session (see bug-1701): since fill_redirect_reply() is fed by the same permanently-empty field for EVERY caller, OPCode_join's pre-existing, supposedly-successful use of the exact same helper (join.c:277) is, by the same logic, equally non-functional against a live standby in production today -- this was not previously flagged anywhere in the bug log. Per this bug's own instructions, NOT papering over this with a workaround guessed in this session -- stopping for review. The gate-rejection code-path change above is correct, tested, and worth keeping (it is necessary infrastructure and fixes the OPCode_upgradeConfig-adjacent gap's code shape identically to join.c's precedent), but closing the user-visible bug additionally requires a second, larger, currently-unscoped change: something must actually populate primary_host/primary_port on a standby from live heartbeat/AppendEntries/ctrlhello traffic (touches ha.c, which has other work in flight this session was told not to touch), OR xceadmin needs a bug-854-style client-side master-ring rotation fallback for schedAdmin/upgradeConfig (mirroring xcecli_ctrlstatus_primary's fix) so an empty-redirect standby reply drives a retry against the next configured master instead of surfacing the bare rejection. See bug-1701 for the dedicated tracking of the underlying data-gap finding.\n\nUPDATE (2026-08-26): bug-1701 is now FIXED (local peers_cfg lookup in handle_ctrlhello, src/controller/config_repl.c:2170-2246 -- see bug-1701's own entry for the full fix writeup) and LIVE-VERIFIED end to end, closing the gap that made this bug's fix a live no-op. Re-ran the exact failing scenario from this bug's own live-verification section: fresh 3-node cluster, `xceadmin scheduler record status --controller <standby>` now prints `redirected: <standby host:port> -> <primary host:port>` on stderr and the real recording status on stdout, exit 0 -- confirmed against both standbys in the cluster and again after a re-election changed which node was primary. This bug's own code change (myreq_handler's fill_redirect_reply() call on -XCE_ERR_STANDBY, cluster.c ~410-433) required NO further modification -- it was correct all along; it only needed a real, populated ha->primary_host/primary_port to redirect to, which bug-1701 now supplies. Status: FIXED, LIVE-VERIFIED.\n\nOriginal PENDING fix text (superseded by the above, kept for history): PENDING. Minimal, single-call-site fix: in myreq_handler's generic ha_dispatch_gate rejection path (cluster.c:406-414), when the rejection reason is specifically -XCE_ERR_STANDBY (i.e. this node knows or may know who the primary is) call fill_redirect_reply(&reply, &c->ha) before xce_reply(), exactly mirroring OPCode_join's existing handle_worker_join()-adjacent usage (join.c:277). This fixes OPCode_schedAdmin AND the already-documented OPCode_upgradeConfig gap simultaneously, with ZERO xceadmin/client-side changes needed -- the existing follow_redirects() mechanism will start working immediately once the server populates the fields. Must verify: (a) ha_state_t.primary_host/primary_port are populated/valid on a CTRL_STANDBY node that has learned of a live primary (the common case) vs. a node that genuinely does not know any primary yet (mid-election, or has never heard from one) -- fill_redirect_reply() unconditionally aliases these fields with no NULL/empty guard, so confirm what a standby's primary_host looks like before any primary is ever discovered (likely NULL/empty, in which case the reply's redirectHost would encode as empty/absent and the client's existing `if host and port` guard already handles this correctly as 'no redirect' -- but verify, don't assume); (b) add a regression test proving a schedAdmin request to a standby-with-known-primary now receives a populated redirect reply (mirroring test_join_redirect.c's existing pattern, `test_redirect_reply_carries_primary_address`) and a live xceadmin CLI test (extending test_e2e_live_ha_push.py's pattern) proving `xceadmin scheduler record status` against ANY of the 3 nodes now transparently reaches the primary and succeeds.",

"root_cause": "ha_state_t.primary_host/primary_port are NEVER WRITTEN by any production code path on a standby -- confirmed by grepping every assignment site across the entire src/ tree (`grep -rn primary_host src/ --include=*.c --include=*.h`): the only writers are test fixtures (test_join_redirect.c, test_p1_integration.c, test_p3_hardening.c, test_ha_redirect.c, test_ha_role_lifecycle.c, this bug's own new test_sched_admin_dispatch.c tests) manually poking the field for isolated unit tests; no heartbeat/AppendEntries/ctrlhello handler in ha.c ever copies the leader's identity into it on the receiving standby. ctrlstatus.c's own field-sourcing doc comment (lines 37-38, 93-101) already names this explicitly ('the vestigial, never-written ha->primary_host') and documents that ctrlstatus_fill() deliberately derives primaryName from role + voted_for_name instead, NEVER from primary_host, for exactly this reason -- so the gap was known and worked around for ctrlstatus, but not for the redirect-reply mechanism (fill_redirect_reply/redirect_host/redirect_port), which has no equivalent workaround and is the ONLY consumer of this permanently-empty field. bug-854 (2026-06-21, CLOSED/FIXED) independently documented the identical fact while root-causing a related but distinct bug (positional client-side primary discovery for ctrlstatus) and explicitly chose NOT to add a server-side primaryName/primary_host source, fixing that bug entirely client-side (xcecli_ctrlstatus_primary master-ring rotation) instead -- a reasonable call for THAT bug, but it leaves fill_redirect_reply() as a piece of server-side machinery that looks functional (it has a real caller, a real unit test proving its own field-copying logic, and a real capnp wire encode/decode path) yet is fed a field that is permanently empty in every real deployment. Direct consequence: OPCode_join's existing use of fill_redirect_reply() (join.c:277, the very precedent bug-1700's fix was told to mirror) is, by the same reasoning, ALSO non-functional against a live standby in production today -- a worker/scheduler/controller join redirect to the primary silently never happens; nothing in the existing test suite (test_join_redirect.c) catches this because those tests call fill_redirect_reply() directly with a manually-populated ha_state_t, never through a live standby that only knows what production heartbeat/election code actually wrote into it.",
"fix": "FIXED (2026-08-26) via option (a): a pure LOCAL lookup in handle_ctrlhello() (src/controller/config_repl.c:2170-2246, inside the existing primary_ctrl_fd==-1 idempotency-guarded block, ~2185-2233), NOT a new wire-protocol field -- every node already statically knows every candidate's host:port from boot (c->myconf->peers_cfg, parsed once from --peers). At the exact moment a standby first establishes primary_ctrl_fd (the same instant it 'discovers' its primary), it now matches req->from->name (populated for EVERY incoming request at src/lib/request.c:379, `req->from = ep->peer;` -- the same name= identity used in --peers name=host:port) against c->myconf->peers_cfg.candidates[] by name (loop pattern mirrors the existing voted_for_name-by-index lookup in ha_init_raft, ha.c:7822-7829) and, on a match, copies that candidate's hostname/port into ha->primary_host/primary_port. No match (real config mismatch) or a NULL req->from/name leaves primary_host/primary_port at their previous value (never wiped) and logs a WARN identifying the unmatched sender name. Locking: ha.h's `lock` field doc explicitly says 'Protects primary_host/port + voted_for_term/name'; the existing writers of voted_for_name (the other field under the same lock, ha.c:2304-2332 and ha.c:5559-5593) take c->ha.lock around the write, so the new write here does too (pthread_mutex_lock/unlock around the strncpy+port assignment only -- the name-matching loop itself runs outside the lock, matching the narrow critical-section style of the precedent). Types verified by direct read, not assumed: ha_state_t.primary_host is `char primary_host[XCE_MAXNAME_LEN]` (ha.h:161, XCE_MAXNAME_LEN=256, config.h:24) and primary_port is `uint32_t` (ha.h:162) -- NOT matching the task brief's assumption that primary_port's type already lined up with xce_candidate_t.port (`int`, cluster.h:22); the int->uint32_t assignment is a safe implicit widening for any real port value (0-65535), cast added for clarity, no risky truncation. No clear-on-primary-loss needed: ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup (ha.c, read-only verified, not modified) resets primary_ctrl_fd back to -1 on genuine primary loss, so the next real ctrlhello (from the same or a new primary) re-satisfies the same idempotency guard and naturally re-runs this lookup -- confirmed by reading ha.c:8594-8680, no explicit clear required. RED/GREEN proof: added test_handle_ctrlhello_populates_primary_host_from_known_peer (FAILED pre-fix: \"Expected '10.0.1.7' Was ''\"; PASSED post-fix) and test_handle_ctrlhello_unknown_peer_leaves_primary_host_unchanged (edge case: unmatched sender name -- no crash, primary_host/primary_port stay at fresh-node empty/zero, primary_ctrl_fd bookkeeping still proceeds) to src/controller/testsuite/test_ha_connection_reuse.c (same file as the pre-existing test_handle_ctrlhello_sets_primary_ctrl_fd, which continues to pass unchanged, proving the idempotency behavior for primary_ctrl_fd itself is untouched). Full controller_unit_test: 1202 Tests, 2 Failures both pre- and post-fix -- exactly the pre-existing bug-1561 overlayfs pair (test_conf_trim_keeps_only_n_versions, test_conf_get_saved_tag_no_config), zero new failures. LIVE END-TO-END VERIFIED -- the exact scenario bug-1700 failed on: deployed two independent fresh 3-node clusters (deploy-ha.sh) on git-stash-isolated before/after controller binaries (stashed only config_repl.c + its test file, leaving other in-flight ha.c/job.c/persist.c work untouched). BEFORE (pre-fix binary): `xceadmin scheduler record status --controller localhost:29992` (a standby) -> `Error: controller returned status -10014`, exit 1, no redirect line -- reproduces bug-1700's original live-verification failure exactly. AFTER (post-fix binary, fresh deploy + also re-verified after clearing controller data to force a different node to win election): `xceadmin scheduler record status --controller <either standby>` -> stderr prints `redirected: localhost:19991 -> localhost:19992` (confirmed via separate stdout/stderr capture: the redirect line is genuinely on stderr, the status body on stdout, matching xceadmin.discovery.follow_redirects()'s documented behavior), stdout prints the real recording status (`recording: no`, etc.), exit 0 -- verified against BOTH standbys in the cluster and re-verified after a re-election flipped which node was primary (ctrl-2 elected instead of ctrl-1), proving the fix is dynamic/general, not coincidentally tied to one node. This unblocks bug-1700's fix, which was otherwise correct and complete but fed by this permanently-empty field -- see bug-1700's own entry for its updated live-verified confirmation. OPCode_join's pre-existing fill_redirect_reply() usage (join.c:277) is also now unblocked by the same fix (not separately re-verified live in this session, but shares the identical previously-broken data source).",

"file": "src/xceadmin/src/xceadmin/scheduler.py (_send_admin_request), possibly xceadmin/discovery.py (follow_redirects)",
"root_cause": "FULLY ROOT-CAUSED. -10013 is E_XCE_NOT_READY (errnox.h: XCE_ERRNO_BASE+12, 'Controller in CTRL_INIT or CTRL_ELECTING state'). The redirect from bug-1701's fix correctly points at whichever node was primary as of its last ctrlhello, but that node can be transiently mid-(re-)election by the time the redirected request actually arrives -- expected/normal on a freshly-booted cluster (election churn during the first several seconds), or any time a real failover is in flight. ha_dispatch_gate() returns -XCE_ERR_NOT_READY for exactly this transient window, with NO redirect populated (by design -- a CTRL_INIT/CTRL_ELECTING node genuinely has no settled primary to point to yet). The sibling code E_XCE_NOMASTER (errnox.h:22) carries an explicit design-intent comment: 'Standby has no known primary -- client should retry' -- but `_send_admin_request()` (scheduler.py:119-161) treats EVERY nonzero reply.status, including both E_XCE_NOT_READY and E_XCE_NOMASTER, as an immediate hard SchedAdminError with no retry at all. This is a documented client-side gap, not a server bug: the server-side behavior (refuse with a specific, distinguishable transient-state code) is correct and intentional; the client simply never implements the retry the errno's own comment already promises.",
"fix": "FIXED and LIVE-VERIFIED (2026-08-26). `_send_admin_request()` (src/xceadmin/src/xceadmin/scheduler.py:119-231) now wraps its whole 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) -- a fresh attempt can discover a newly-settled or different primary once an election concludes. Retries EXACTLY `reply.status in (_E_XCE_NOMASTER, _E_XCE_NOT_READY)` (module-level constants at scheduler.py:80-111, values -10011/-10013 -- NEGATIVE, matching the real wire value confirmed via join.c:284 `rc = -E_XCE_NOMASTER` / commit.c:259 and controller.capnp:608's signed `Int32 status` field). `E_XCE_STANDBY` (-10014) is deliberately excluded -- untouched, still resolved purely by `follow_redirects()`'s existing redirect-following (bug-1701); a standby reply that DOES carry a redirect never even reaches this status check (follow_redirects consumes it internally), and one that does NOT carry a redirect is a genuine non-transient rejection that must keep failing immediately. No shared Python-side mirror of errnox.h's enum exists anywhere in xcecommon/xceadmin (confirmed by grepping the whole package) -- followed the one existing precedent instead of inventing a new convention: test_e2e_live_ha_push.py's own local `_E_XCE_STANDBY = 10014` constant with an errnox.h-citing comment. Retry budget: `_MAX_TRANSIENT_ATTEMPTS=4` total attempts (1 initial + 3 retries), `_TRANSIENT_RETRY_DELAY_S=1.5` fixed delay between attempts (`time.sleep`) -- sized at the same scale as this project's existing bounded-retry shapes (follow_redirects' own `_MAX_REDIRECT_HOPS=3`; the HA soak driver's verify_classify retry loop) since election-churn settling is single-digit-seconds, not a long outage; no exponential backoff needed at this scale. Retry-budget exhaustion still raises the existing `SchedAdminError` (no new exception type needed) but with a message appending '(still transient after N attempts over ~Xs -- giving up)' for clear distinguishability from an immediate non-retried hard failure. RED/GREEN proof (src/xceadmin/tests/test_scheduler.py): added `_SequentialMockController` (a finite, exact-connection-count multi-TLS-connection mock server, since the retry loop reconnects from scratch each attempt -- distinct from the file's existing one-shot `_MockController`) plus 5 new tests -- `test_record_status_retries_on_transient_status_then_succeeds` (parametrized NOT_READY/NOMASTER, 2 failures then success -> eventual success, FAILED pre-fix at collection time since the referenced constants didn't exist yet, and confirmed behaviorally via an ad hoc script that the pre-fix code raises immediately on a single transient reply with only 1 connection attempt), `test_record_status_retry_exhaustion_raises_distinguishable_error` (always-transient mock, `scheduler.time.sleep` monkeypatched so the test does not actually wait; asserts exact attempt count + distinguishable message), `test_record_status_standby_without_redirect_not_retried` and `test_record_status_standby_with_redirect_follows_redirect_not_retried` (regression locks: E_XCE_STANDBY is never retried, with/without a populated redirect, zero sleep calls in either case) -- all 5 PASS post-fix in 0.20s total (no real sleeping). Full xceadmin suite: 274 passed, 1 failed -- the failure (`test_live_config_push_against_standby_returns_standby_rejection_not_redirect`, test_e2e_live_ha_push.py) is PRE-EXISTING and unrelated: confirmed via `git stash push -- <only scheduler.py/test_scheduler.py>` that it reproduces IDENTICALLY on the unmodified codebase -- it is a live e2e test whose own docstring already anticipated going stale once bug-1700/1701's generic dispatch-gate redirect fix (already landed this session) generalizes to `OPCode_upgradeConfig`, which it now has; zero new failures caused by this fix. LIVE VERIFICATION (real 3-node cluster, deploy-ha.sh + xce.build's real controller binary, editable-install xceadmin venv pointed at scheduler.py so before/after needed no rebuild, only a file swap): a plain fresh-boot tight loop immediately after start-all.sh did NOT naturally reproduce -10013 in this sandbox (election settles with highly variable timing, sometimes near-instantly, since `ha_has_write_quorum()`'s standby_endpoints are populated synchronously inside `raft_cb_become_leader` and are typically already satisfied by the time start-all.sh's 1s-granularity health-check first observes CTRL_PRIMARY) -- but a REAL FAILOVER (kill -9 the live primary, then hammer the two survivors with zero sleep, no health-check wait) reliably reproduced the exact user-reported symptom, which this bug's own root-cause writeup already named as an equally valid trigger ('...or any time a real failover is in flight'): pre-fix, the client surfaced a bare 'Error: controller returned status -10013' to the user at t+8.60s post-kill (exit 1); post-fix, an identical failover on a fresh cluster produced ZERO -10013/-10011 failures across the equivalent ~15s post-kill window (52 requests; every non-success was either a legitimate pre-election-completion 'connection refused' to the just-killed primary's now-dead listener, or a legitimate post-gate 'scheduler not connected' business-level SchedAdminError from this sandbox having no real xce_scheduler process deployed -- neither is a transient status code, and correctly reaches the caller unretried in both runs, proving the fix does not overreach). `push.py`'s `push_config()`/`probe_config()` (src/xceadmin/src/xceadmin/push.py:92-179) have the IDENTICAL gap -- same two transient codes, same immediate-return-as-data with zero retry -- confirmed by direct code read; NOT fixed here (out of this bug's Python-scheduler-admin-path scope, and push.py's error-vs-return convention differs from scheduler.py's raise-based one, so a proper fix there is more than a trivial shared-helper change) -- flagged as a sibling finding for a future bug, not silently left undocumented.",

User confirmed via `sudo dmesg -T` a REAL kernel-level segfault: `xce_scheduler[2815660]: segfault at 30 ip 0000601569e1fb35 sp 00007db7db1f6e00 error 4 in xce_scheduler[23b35,601569e01000+de000] likely on CPU 5 (core 16, socket 0)` -- though this specific dmesg entry is dated Aug 25 19:21:39, a DIFFERENT, earlier occurrence than today's specific restart (Aug 26 ~18:00-18:02), not necessarily the direct cause of THIS restart. No core dump exists for xce_scheduler anywhere in /var/lib/systemd/coredump/ (only xce_controller and python entries present, despite the scheduler segfault being kernel-confirmed) -- a separate, notable gap in this environment's crash-capture coverage for the scheduler process specifically.",
"file": "src/scheduler/ (exact crash site unknown -- no core dump, no backtrace available for either occurrence)",
"root_cause": "NOT ROOT-CAUSED -- confirmed real (kernel dmesg segfault line, error code 4 = user-mode read fault, not a random/unrelated event) but no core dump or backtrace exists for any xce_scheduler crash observed so far, including the Aug 25 19:21:39 kernel-confirmed occurrence and today's (Aug 26, ~18:00-18:02) restart (PID 3964918 -> 4137745), which may or may not be the SAME underlying bug -- the two occurrences have not been correlated beyond both being unexplained scheduler deaths. Notable secondary finding: systemd-coredump is confirmed working for xce_controller (4 real core.xce_controller.*.zst files captured and used earlier this session, see bug-1699) but has captured ZERO xce_scheduler crashes despite at least one kernel-confirmed scheduler segfault -- needs investigation on the user's real machine (check core_pattern/ulimit -c/systemd-coredump size or process-name filtering specifically for the scheduler binary; also worth checking whether the scheduler's own launch wrapper -- start-scheduler.sh, a bare unwrapped invocation with no core-dump-enabling ulimit call -- inherits a different ulimit -c than however the controller happens to get its unlimited setting). FOLLOW-UP (2026-08-26, disambiguating today's restart from the Aug-25 segfault): checked dmesg for today's exact restart window (17:45-18:15) -- zero xce_scheduler entries (the ONLY dmesg segfault hit remains the single Aug 25 19:21:39 occurrence). journalctl for the same window -- zero xce_scheduler entries at all. dmesg confirms OOM killer was never actually invoked against any process in this window (only periodic OOM-killer enable/disable toggling, unrelated). ulimit -c is unlimited and core_pattern correctly routes to systemd-coredump (confirmed working for xce_controller, 4 real cores captured this session). The combination of (a) unlimited core-dump capacity + correct core_pattern, (b) zero kernel fault-signal record, (c) zero OOM record, (d) zero journalctl record for today's specific window strongly indicates today's PID change (3964918 -> 4137745) was NOT a crash of any kind -- a genuine fault signal (SIGSEGV/SIGABRT/SIGBUS/SIGILL/SIGFPE) is unconditionally kernel-logged regardless of which process triggers it, and none was. The scheduler is launched as a bare backgrounded process (start-scheduler.sh, no systemd unit), so an ordinary kill/pkill sent by an unrelated concurrent process on this shared machine would leave NO trace in dmesg or journalctl -- most likely explanation for today's specific restart, DECOUPLED from this bug going forward. This buglog entry now tracks ONLY the confirmed, kernel-verified Aug 25 19:21:39 xce_scheduler segfault (still unreproduced, still no core available, still worth investigating on recurrence) -- not today's restart, which is environmental noise, not a code bug.",
"fix": "NOT ATTEMPTED -- cannot fix an uninvestigated crash responsibly. Next steps if revisited: (a) fix the core-dump capture gap first (confirm ulimit -c/core_pattern actually applies to xce_scheduler processes the same way it does to xce_controller, on the user's real machine -- this blocks ALL future scheduler crash forensics, not just this one); (b) once captured, decode the NEXT scheduler core the same way bug-1699's controller cores were analyzed (systemd-coredump or manual zstd -d + gdb against the matching build.dbg/scheduler/xce_scheduler binary); (c) correlate against scheduler.log's own last lines before each death for behavioral context (what was the scheduler doing in the moment it died -- dispatch round, resource accounting, a specific request type).",

The request happened to land in the brief, normal window between the old scheduler disconnecting and the new one reconnecting.",
"file": "src/xceadmin/src/xceadmin/scheduler.py (_send_admin_request)",
"root_cause": "FULLY ROOT-CAUSED, same family as bug-1713 but NOT covered by that fix. 'scheduler disconnected' is delivered via a DIFFERENT signaling path than bug-1713's two numeric status codes: cluster.c's bug-1693 disconnect-detection mechanism (cluster.c:1052-1067) sends `reply.status = 0` (success at the RPC level) with `schedadminreplymsg{ok=false, error=\"scheduler disconnected\"}` -- a normal-status reply carrying a domain-level failure, not a nonzero `reply.status` the way E_XCE_NOT_READY/E_XCE_NOMASTER are. `_send_admin_request()` (scheduler.py:145-154) treats `admin_reply.ok == False` as an unconditional hard SchedAdminError for EVERY reason string, with no distinction between genuinely transient conditions ('scheduler disconnected', 'scheduler not connected', 'request timeout' -- all connection/timing related, expected to self-resolve within seconds, especially during a redeploy/restart cycle) and genuinely permanent domain errors ('not recording', 'already recording', 'invalid record file name' -- real error states that must NOT be retried, e.g. calling record-stop on an already-stopped recorder is a correct, meaningful rejection, not a transient hiccup).",
"fix": "FIXED and LIVE-VERIFIED (2026-08-26). Extended bug-1713's retry loop in `_send_admin_request()` (src/xceadmin/src/xceadmin/scheduler.py:158-249) to a SECOND, differently-signaled transient family: after decoding `admin_reply = reply.data.schedadminreplymsg` and finding `admin_reply.ok == False`, the code now checks `admin_reply.error in _TRANSIENT_ADMIN_REASONS` (new module-level frozenset, scheduler.py:114-160) and, if so and `attempt < _MAX_TRANSIENT_ATTEMPTS`, sleeps `_TRANSIENT_RETRY_DELAY_S` and `continue`s the SAME `for attempt in range(1, _MAX_TRANSIENT_ATTEMPTS+1)` loop bug-1713 already added -- no second retry loop, same budget (4 attempts, 1.5s fixed delay), same re-run-`follow_redirects()`-from-scratch shape (a fresh attempt can discover a newly-reconnected scheduler, exactly like a fresh attempt can discover a newly-settled primary in bug-1713's case). On exhaustion, raises the same `SchedAdminError` shape with the reason string annotated '(still transient after N attempts over ~Xs -- giving up)', mirroring bug-1713's own distinguishable-message convention exactly. AUTHORITATIVE error-string list (grepped every literal `sched_admin_reply_t`/`SchedAdminReply` `.error = \"...\"` assignment across src/controller/ and src/scheduler/, then read each site's surrounding code, not just the string text): transient (all 4 now in `_TRANSIENT_ADMIN_REASONS`) -- \"scheduler disconnected\" (cluster.c:1062, bug-1693's disconnect-detection path), \"scheduler not connected\" (cluster.c:958, `c->sched.ep==NULL`), \"request timeout\" (cluster.c:1078, SCHEDADMIN_TIMEOUT_MS wait expired), and \"server busy, try again\" (cluster.c:937, `vtaskmgr_blocking_acquire()` admission-reservation exhaustion -- a 4th transient reason NOT in this bug's original three-string hypothesis, added after reading the admission-gate's own 'try again' design comment: resource contention that self-resolves as soon as another admitted vtask op completes, not a domain rejection). Permanent (left untouched, still raise on the very first attempt): \"already recording\"/\"not recording\" (driver.c:390/426, rc==-EALREADY) and validation_error_text()'s six filename/path-rejection strings (driver.c:298-316: \"invalid record file name\", \"record directory not found\", \"record directory path is not a directory\", \"permission denied accessing record file\", \"a non-file entry with this name already exists\", \"record file path too long\"), plus a dynamic (not a fixed literal, so it could never join an exact-match retry set anyway) \"cannot write to %s: %s\" I/O-failure message (driver.c:398-404). RED/GREEN proof (src/xceadmin/tests/test_scheduler.py): confirmed RED by temporarily reverting only the two bug-1715 edits back to bug-1713's exact shipped state (not via git stash, since bug-1713's own fix was itself still an uncommitted working-tree change sharing the same file -- a bare `git stash` would have reverted bug-1713 too) -- the new parametrized `test_record_status_retries_on_transient_admin_reason_then_succeeds`/`..._retry_exhaustion_on_transient_admin_reason_...` tests failed at COLLECTION time (`AttributeError: module 'xceadmin.scheduler' has no attribute '_TRANSIENT_ADMIN_REASONS'`), and a standalone ad hoc script against that same pre-fix code confirmed BEHAVIORAL red too: a real TLS mock returning `ok=false, error='scheduler disconnected'` once raised `SchedAdminError` immediately after exactly 1 connection, no retry. Reapplied the fix -> GREEN: all 41 tests in test_scheduler.py pass, including 4 new `_TRANSIENT_ADMIN_REASONS`-parametrized retry-then-succeed tests, 4 new retry-exhaustion tests (one per confirmed-transient reason, each asserting exact connection_count == _MAX_TRANSIENT_ATTEMPTS and a distinguishable exhaustion message), and a new `test_record_stop_not_recording_never_retried` non-regression test (asserts connection_count==1, zero sleep calls, for the permanent 'not recording' reason). The pre-existing `test_record_start_error_codes_raise_sched_admin_error` parametrize list was edited (not left untouched): \"scheduler not connected\"/\"request timeout\" were removed (they are now confirmed-transient and retried, not raised immediately -- their coverage moved to the new retry tests) and replaced with two more confirmed-permanent validation_error_text() strings (\"record directory not found\", \"permission denied accessing record file\") alongside the original \"invalid record file name\", for stronger permanent-error coverage. bug-1713's own 5 tests (transient-status retry/exhaustion, both E_XCE_STANDBY regression locks) were run UNMODIFIED and all still pass -- no shared-loop refactor was needed since bug-1713's `for attempt in range(...)` loop and its `reply.status != 0` branch were reused as-is; only a second `if`/retry check was added inside the existing `if not admin_reply.ok:` branch. Full xceadmin suite: 283 passed, 1 failed -- the failure (`test_live_config_push_against_standby_returns_standby_rejection_not_redirect`) is the SAME pre-existing, already-flagged-stale failure named in bug-1713's own report (test_e2e_live_ha_push.py, stale since bug-1700/1701's redirect-gap fix generalized to OPCode_upgradeConfig) -- zero new failures caused by this fix (284 total tests vs bug-1713's reported 275, consistent with the 9 new tests added here). LIVE VERIFICATION (real 3-node cluster, deploy-ha.sh + start-all.sh, build.dbg's real xce_controller/xce_scheduler/xcecd_virtual binaries -- no C rebuild needed since this fix is Python-only and none of the C-side cluster.c/driver.c code changed): hammered `xceadmin.scheduler.record_status('localhost:9991')` (the elected primary) in a tight zero-delay loop against the fixed client for 20s while concurrently `kill -9`-ing the live xce_scheduler process mid-run and restarting it via `start-scheduler.sh` (a genuine scheduler-process-death-and-restart, not a mock, not a controller failover). Result: 153 of 154 requests during the window succeeded, most transparently absorbing the scheduler-down period with zero visible failure to the caller; ONE request genuinely hit the real 'scheduler not connected' condition, went through the full retry budget (logged exactly as designed: 'scheduler not connected (still transient after 4 attempts over ~4.5s -- giving up)'), and still surfaced a SchedAdminError because this particular sandbox's scheduler restart (relaunched via a fresh `nix develop` subshell each time, which carries its own multi-second evaluation overhead on top of the scheduler's own re-join handshake) took longer to fully rejoin than the shared 4-attempt/1.5s (~4.5s total) budget -- the very next request after that succeeded again. This is honestly reported as PARTIAL absorption, not a zero-failure live result like bug-1713's controller-failover scenario got: the retry mechanism is proven to engage correctly on a genuine, non-mocked signal end-to-end (real controller, real scheduler restart, real wire reply, real client-side retry/give-up message), and it converted what would have been 100% visible failure for the whole outage window (pre-fix) into 1 failure out of 154 requests (post-fix) -- but this sandbox's nix-develop-relaunch overhead for the scheduler restart is likely slower than a real production supervisor restart would be, so the single exhaustion here should not be read as proof the shared 4.5s budget is too short in general. Kept the identical bug-1713 budget as instructed (no concrete evidence specific to THIS class of condition that it's wrong -- the one exhaustion observed is plausibly a sandbox-restart-mechanism artifact, not a signal about the real-world scheduler-restart timescale) rather than inventing a different cadence from one ambiguous data point. `push.py`'s `push_config()`/`probe_config()` gap flagged by bug-1713 as a sibling finding remains unfixed and out of this bug's scope (unchanged from bug-1713's report).",

A prior attempt in the same session had additionally passed an explicit build_dir arg (`src/xce.build`) which -- combined with xce-build.sh's own internal cd into src/ -- produced a bogus nested `src/src/xce.build` directory instead of reusing the real one (harmless, fully gitignored via meson's own auto-generated per-builddir `.gitignore: *`, but wasted a build cycle and caused brief confusion investigating why `git status`/`git check-ignore` showed nothing for it).",
