4 green pins: handle_jobdispatch replies receipt-only with zero WAL
appends through a real 2-alloc dispatch cycle (notify outcomes intact,
reply-precedes-processing); set/clr_preason and do_update_op rusage
stay receipt-style with RETAIN-pending fact appends ACK-committed.
Umbrella Reply-Ordering Contract cited per pin. DISCOVERY bug-451
(reviewer-verified): RUSAGE hook va_list type confusion — 4-byte OOB
read + garbage state in WAL_JOB_RUSAGE payloads; fix deferred to 7.1.
Census 488; zero failures.
7 cases: two covered short-circuits, timeout with committed_lsn
unmoved, covering-ACK release, sync_timeout_ms fallback (bounded both
directions), n_peers=1 standalone, NOT_READY passthrough via cap
saturation. Watermark resolved to current_lsn - 1 (design's literal
phrasing unsatisfiable per persist.h:71 invariant) with off-by-one
killing power both ways. 15 tests / 7 RED; suite baseline zero.
Fixed the 3 bug-411 baseline failures honestly: stale timeout
expectation updated to the reject-on-timeout contract (engine-wired
fixture, killing power retained); two healthy-primary gate fixtures
populated with standby_endpoints (gate logic untouched). Census: 46
groups / 467 tests / 0 failures standalone under default ASAN.
Audit (reviewer-confirmed, recorded in tasks.md): no production walAck
path reaches the deprecated acked_lsn>0 counting or n_active==0
short-circuit except the documented LSN-0 first entry. Leak inventory
for 6 groups documented as follow-up.
cluster_t embeds commit_engine_t; init in cluster_init_phase2 after the
vtaskmgr guard (idempotence-guarded — phase2 can run twice), wiring
repl_set_commit_engine + ha.repl back-pointer before any standby can
register; fini after iomgr/vtask shutdown. persist_wal_sync_append
passes written_lsn; engine-wired path drops -ENODEV and the
committed_lsn store (engine owns advancement); LSN-0 first-entry
routes to legacy per the accepted interim. p2 -ENODEV pin updated to
the Req 6.3 contract. 34/34 + 6/6 green through honest delegation;
census exactly at the 3 validated baselines; production binary links.
repl_active_standby_count: registry truth (ep != NULL && !in_catch_up)
under r->lock. ha_state_t gains repl back-pointer (wired at init by
task 5.3); ha_has_write_quorum uses registry truth when wired, exact
legacy fallback when NULL; formula unchanged. Test 29 (wired gate,
catch-up-only standby → NOT_READY, admits after clear) captured RED
pre-fix. 29/29 group tests; suite at the 3-failure baseline.
Tests 21-28: repl_active_standby_count contract (5 RED vs inert -1
stub) + 3 gate-level pins (n_peers<=1 always-true, zero-connected
reject, stateless re-accept) that 4.2 must preserve. Declaration in
repl.h; ha.c/ha.h untouched (4.2 boundary). 28 tests / 5 RED; suite
at the 3-failure baseline with unchanged signatures.
Tests 17-20: catch-up ACK exclusion vs pending waiter, membership-change
wake of covered waiter, removal-below-majority fails at own deadline
(no forced early-fail), non-blocking bound. Landed GREEN: task 1.2's
commit_on_membership_change already implements the full 3.2 contract,
so RED was unachievable; reviewer confirmed mutation-killing power and
zero production changes. 20/20 group tests; suite at baseline.
9 new cases (8-16): block-until-majority, deadline timeout, standalone
fast path, zero-ACK regression, n_vcpus-relative cap with floor, ACK
progress at saturation, gate as blocking predicate (NOT_READY is
admission-cap-only per corrected contract). Main-thread-only assertions
after joins; 16 tests / 9 RED failures; baseline unchanged.
Add test_repl_registration_lifecycle covering the complete 3-step standby
lifecycle: register (nstandbys==1, ep pointer verified), duplicate
(idempotent, same slot), deregister (ep==NULL, nstandbys==0 — the
previously-untested slot-zeroing invariant). Tasks 5.1/5.2 were already
covered by test_broadcast_one_standby_sends_entry, test_wal_wire
round-trip, and test_wal_ack_reply_updates_acked_lsn_and_signals.
18 repl unit tests pass under ASAN.
Fix defective assertion in test_committed_lsn_advances_after_majority_ack
(before/after delta instead of >0 which fails for lsn=0 first write).
Add test_single_node_committed_lsn_unchanged documenting -ENODEV degraded
mode for no-standby path. Fix NACK test expected return from -ETIMEDOUT to
0: with 1 registered standby, quorum=1 is met by primary self-count alone.
308 tests pass, 0 fail under ASAN.
Handle incoming WalAckReply in repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch: extract
lsn+success, call repl_on_ack on success to update standby acked_lsn
and signal majority-ack waiter. NACK is WARN-logged with no state
change. Two unit tests verify positive path (acked_lsn updated, waiter
unblocked) and negative path (NACK leaves acked_lsn=0, wait times out).
Standby sends WalAckReply via xce_reply after each successfully
applied WAL entry. ha_apply_wal_catchup_entry signature extended
with endpoint_t* and cluster_t* parameters. walackreplymsg union
arm added to RequestReply capnp schema and xce_reply_t. Error
entries skip ACK. Dispatch gate test confirms OPCode_walCatchupEntry
allowed in CTRL_STANDBY/ELECTING/INIT.

Election protocol fixes validated against raft.tla invariants:
- ha_init_raft(): one-time raft state init at startup (re-init would lose
durable election progress); n_peers = full cluster size including self
- handle_request_vote(): higher-term step-down moved BEFORE the role gate
(split-brain fix); standby vote-deny now requires a live primary control
channel (primary_ctrl_fd >= 0) AND a fresh heartbeat
- ha_heartbeat_is_fresh(): derive freshness from ha->last_activity (the
field production actually writes); the orphaned last_heartbeat timespec
had no production writer, leaving the vote-deny gate inert (bug-337);
field removed from ha_state_t
- handle_request_vote(): restore same-candidate idempotent re-grant —
deny only a DIFFERENT candidate in the same term, matching raft.c and
Raft §5.2 votedFor ∈ {Nil, candidateId} (bug-338)
- raft_init(): restore voted_for_term alongside a persisted vote; leaving
it 0 allowed a double vote in the same term across a restart (bug-339)
- myapp_run(): leader_known check treats a vote recorded under this node's
own name as a self-vote — production persists the real candidate name,
the "self" placeholder only appears in test mode
- raft_on_vote_request(): leader steps down on higher-term vote request
instead of denying it
Tests: test_proto_H6_restored_vote_blocks_second_vote added; H1 restore
assertion strengthened; test_ha_vote_gate.c driven through last_activity +
primary_ctrl_fd (the real production fields). Full /xce-build all green
(lib + controller + scheduler + Go suites, 0 failures, ASAN clean).
deploy-ha.sh: start.sh now forwards extra args to the controller binary.
- ha_state_t.n_peers now matches raft_config_t.n_peers convention:
total cluster size (including self), consistently across both layers
- ha_start_election_async: ha->n_peers = n_peers (candidates_count)
- Convergence/counting loops: i < n_peers - 1 (skip self for standby arrays)
- Single-node: n_peers=1, threshold=0 (same behavior, clear semantics)
- ha_elect_ctx_t.n_peers unchanged (separate field for vote array sizing)
- Tests: 3-node n_peers=2->3, single-node 0->1, loop bounds updated
E2E test 6.7: 3-node cluster lifecycle verified
- Initial: ctrl-1 PRIMARY via majority convergence, no degraded mode
- Kill primary: RDHUP detected on both standbys, ctrl-2 elected at term=4
- No data loss: config tag preserved across failover
- Full ASAN build green
6.3: Fix single-node bug — ha_compute_safe_committed_lsn now returns
self_lsn instead of 0 for n_peers=0 (prevents WAL truncation on
single-node re-election). Add self_lsn/self_tag to ha_elect_ctx_t,
populated unconditionally in ha_start_election_async. All 3 test
scenarios pass under ASAN.
6.4: Add test_snapshot_recv_128kb_two_chunks (128KB snapshot in
2x64KB chunks, verifies size and applied_lsn); 4 other test cases
already existed from tasks 3.5c/3.5d. All ASAN-clean.
- Change HA_DEFAULT_COMMITTING_TIMEOUT_MS from 10000 to 60000
- committing_timeout_fn: count converged/pending standbys from
standby_converged[], log WARN with counts, then promote (degraded mode)
- Replace hardcoded 10000 in test_ha_evaluate_committing.c with macro
- Three new tests: default=60000, degrade-promote with 1/2 and 0/2 converged
- Strip handle_ctrlhello: remove repl_add_standby, WAL streaming,
snapshot check, push_config_to_standbys, and CtrlHelloReply
- Keep only: set primary_ctrl_fd, call ha_on_heartbeat_received,
arm ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask, log INFO
- All replication decisions now handled by heartbeat decision loop
- Test: call with NULL repl + config_tag mismatch → no crash, no repl
messages enqueued, primary_ctrl_fd set correctly
- In raft_cb_become_leader, after persist_truncate_wal_above(safe_lsn),
store safe_lsn to ha->last_known_committed_lsn via atomic release
- Test: 3-node voters [100,150,200] → safe_lsn=150; asserts
ha->last_known_committed_lsn == 150 after raft_cb_become_leader_for_test
- Add ha_repl_send_snapshot_hook seam in ha.c/ha.h for XCE_TESTING
- test_dispatch_repl_action_send_snapshot: verifies SEND_SNAPSHOT
decision triggers hook when standby_lsn < oldest_wal_lsn
- test_snapshot_recv_two_chunks_assembles_and_renames: verifies standby
assembles snap.part across chunks and renames on isLast=true
- test_snapshot_recv_reconnect_discards_snappart: verifies O_TRUNC
semantics on chunk_index==0 restart after reconnect
- All tests pass under ASAN
- SEND_SNAPSHOT uses checkpoint_lsn (not committed_lsn) for file lookup
- ha_send_snapshot_to_standby stats file for actual total_size
- ha_compute_oldest_wal_lsn scans WAL dir for min segment LSN
- Removed hardcoded 131072 and oldest_wal_lsn=0 placeholders
ha_stream_wal_to_standby() reads WAL from committed_lsn range, accumulates
entries to 256/64KB per batch, enqueues all via xce_request() (non-blocking).
Partial final batch sent immediately. Wired into STREAM_WAL case.
3 tests: 500-entries/2-batches, partial batch, empty range.
Fixed stale task-number comments per review.
ha_dispatch_repl_action_for_standby() calls push_config_to_standbys()
when PUSH_CONFIG decision. Hook seam for unit tests. Wired into
repl_ack_decode_and_dispatch after ha_process_standby_state.
oldest_wal_lsn=0 placeholder documented for task 3.4.
ha_evaluate_repl_action() pure function: stale tag→PUSH_CONFIG,
lsn<oldest_wal→SEND_SNAPSHOT, lsn<committed→STREAM_WAL, else CONVERGED.
5 tests. Fixed misleading stream_wal_from_zero test name per review.
OPCode_nop handler now sends stateReport {applied_lsn, config_tag}
instead of nodata. Function in ha.c for unit-test linkability.
Two tests: warm state and zero-state fresh standby (Req 1.4).
Extend ha_apply_wal_catchup_entry with batch branch:
- Check n_entries > 0, iterate entries[] list in order
- Apply each via apply_wal_entry(); skip NULL/errors without crash
- Advance applied_lsn once after full batch (not per-entry)
- n_entries == 0 falls through to task 2.1 single-entry path
4 new unit tests covering full batch, partial batch, error skip, fallback
Replace stub with ha_apply_wal_catchup_entry() calling apply_wal_entry().
CAS-advance applied_lsn on success; log ERROR and skip on failure.
Standby stays in CTRL_STANDBY throughout. 3 new unit tests.
Add standby_reported_tag/lsn/converged arrays to ha_state_t, sized
MAX_HA_CANDIDATES. Zero-init via existing memset in ha_init().
Unit test verifies zero-init and writability.
Verification task: confirmed config_repl.c handle_ctrlhello calls both
ha_on_heartbeat_received and ha_arm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask (delaymgr poll).
Confirmed ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup leads with ha_disarm (Req 5.4).
No pthread_create in heartbeat arm path (Req 1.6). Add thread-count test.
Extend primary_heartbeat_fn to read last_push_time per standby and send NOP
only when elapsed >= heartbeat_interval_s. on_standby_connected writes
last_push_time before ctrlhello send. Remove workaround xce_nop_req at end
of on_standby_connected. Add ha_nop_req_hook XCE_TESTING seam. 3 new tests.
Remove hb_vtask_t, hb_timeout_thread, s_hb_vtask from ha.c. Replace with
liveness_poll_ctx_t + delaymgr liveness_poll_fn: checks cancelled flag and
role==CTRL_STANDBY before acting; re-arms at heartbeat_interval_ms/2.
ha_on_primary_ctrl_fd_rdhup calls ha_disarm_heartbeat_timeout_vtask first
to prevent duplicate failover (Req 5.4). ha_on_heartbeat_received writes
last_activity via clock_gettime. Add test_ha_liveness.c with 7 unit tests.
Enforce heartbeat_timeout_ms >= 2 * heartbeat_interval_ms at startup.
validate_heartbeat_config() in startup_validation.c returns -EINVAL with
error message on violation; wired in cluster_init_phase1 before ha_init().
4 unit tests added to test_ha_startup.c.
Add time_t last_activity to ha_state_t for standby liveness timestamp tracking.
Add time_t last_push_time to standby_ep_ctx_t for primary idle NOP suppression.
Zero-initialize last_activity in ha_init(); last_push_time zeroed by calloc.
Add test_ha_init_last_activity_is_zero to test_ha_startup.c.
Task 7.1 (unit tests) was already complete with 8 tests in
test_ha_connection_reuse.c. Added two new tests:
Task 7.2 — test_follower_passive_no_outbound_connect (Req 2.1, 2.4):
Verifies raft_cb_become_follower sets role=CTRL_STANDBY and nulls all
votes[i].ep. The old fetch_config_from_primary path is gone; standbys
never initiate outbound connects after election loss.
Task 7.3 — test_promoted_ep_repl_ack_promotes_to_primary (Req 5.2, 5.4):
Injects two OPCode_replCatchUpDone packets via peer_ctrl_msg_handler in
CTRL_PRIMARY_COMMITTING with n_peers=4 (5-node cluster, quorum=2 ACKs).
Verifies repl_ack_count reaches 2 and role transitions to CTRL_PRIMARY.
Added vote_ep_ctx_set_cluster_for_test() seam so vctx->c is non-NULL
when ha_repl_ack_received fires ha_promote_to_primary.
All 62 controller tests pass; ASAN clean.
