xcecli_joblist/reslist/workerlist/resval/jobinfo return a non-negative ROW
COUNT on success (rc = getreply.nrows), not a 0/status code. They were
wrapped in XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL, which unconditionally classifies the raw
return value against fixed constants (E_XCE_* and POSIX errno magnitudes
accepted in either sign) — a row count that happens to equal one of those
constants (e.g. exactly 111 jobs == ECONNREFUSED) was silently
misclassified as a transport failure, forcing a spurious
xce_failover_rotate() on every call with that exact count. In
/xce-test-ha's arithmetic progression (3 + 3*round) this hit at round 36,
burning the retry budget on self-inflicted churn until it coincided with
a genuine transient and surfaced a real ECONNRESET to the caller.
Add XCECLI_FAILOVER_CALL_COUNT: only enters the retry/classify loop when
EXPR's raw result is negative; any non-negative result (0 or a genuine
row count of any magnitude) is unconditionally success. Switch the five
xce_get-family wrappers to it. Verified via 40-round sequential and
40-round chaotic HA soak past round 36, zero committed-job loss.
socket_connect sets O_NONBLOCK before connect and bounds the attempt with
poll(timeout); new connect_timeout_ms param (0=DEFAULT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_MS);
all 5 callers updated (ha.c x3, client.c, xcectx.c). Revalidation Trigger:
shared netio helper signature changed. Broad build links all components;
xcelib_test 278/0, controller_unit_test 194/0. 1.4/1.5 unit tests satisfied
by the TDD output of 1.2/1.3 (test_slowlane.c, test_netio_bounded_connect.c).
Add the full call chain for host control operations from the Go API
server through the C library to the controller:
- schema/controller.capnp: HostControl struct + hostctrlmsg @21
in Request.body union
- include/typemap.h: xce_hostctrl_t* hostctrlmsg in body union
(placed after @20 clrpreasonmsg, matching capnp ordinal)
- include/client.h, xceapi.h, request.h: declarations for
xcecli_hostctrl, xce_hostctrl, xce_hostctrl_req
- lib/client.c: xcecli_hostctrl (validate + delegate to xce_hostctrl)
- lib/xceapi.c: xce_hostctrl (validate ctx state + send + wait reply)
- lib/request.c: xce_hostctrl_req (validate hostname/empty/nil,
accept only HOST_OPEN/HOST_CLOSE, reject HOST_TAG/UNTAG)
- lib/helper.c: Request_body_hostctrlmsg cases in
xce_request_body() and xce_request_msg_name()
- controller/cluster.c: OPCode_hostcontrol dispatch
- controller/include/cluster.h: do_hostcontrol_op declaration
- controller/worker.c: do_hostcontrol_op + fix pre-existing
goto-clean bug in worker_ctrl that leaked write lock and
reference on HOST_OPEN/HOST_CLOSE no-op paths
TDD: 8 xce_hostctrl_req validation tests (null ep, null ctrl,
null/empty hostname, HOST_DO_NONE no-op, HOST_TAG/UNTAG reject,
negative action reject, HOST_OPEN/CLOSE accept via xce_request).
116/116 xcelib tests pass. CGO_ENABLED=0 Go backend tests pass.
