Josh Siviour	208a108c27	fix(ec2): render image CreationDate as UTC (#1057) ... An AMI imported on a node whose timezone is not UTC was stamped with local wall-clock time carrying a Z suffix, so on a +1000 node an 11:42Z import reported 21:42Z — ten hours in the future. The layout "2006-01-02T15:04:05.000Z" treats the trailing Z as a literal character rather than a zone directive, so Format printed whatever zone the value carried and then asserted UTC regardless. DescribeImages now converts before formatting, which also corrects records already stored, since the stored time.Time still carries its original zone. The four sites that stamp a new image now store time.Now().UTC() as well, so the value is right on both sides of the round trip. Terraform's most_recent sorts on this field, so before this an AMI imported on a +1000 node outranked a genuinely newer one imported on a UTC node for ten hours. Closes mulga-il7w1.	2026-09-16 23:45:40 +10:00
Josh Siviour	ca5ff7695e	fix(ecs-agent): allocate a console for a pseudoTerminal container (#1054) ... oci.WithTTY put Terminal in the OCI spec while the task was created with a cio creator that asked for no terminal, so the shim made no console socket and runc refused to start the container at all. The terminal flag now reaches the FIFO set, and a terminal carries no separate stderr stream.	2026-09-16 23:44:31 +10:00
Josh Siviour	1ab61b0dd5	fix(ecs): enforce or refuse container runtime fields (TFC-0040) (#1053) ... * fix(ecs): enforce or refuse container runtime fields (TFC-0040) user, mountPoints, volumesFrom, readonlyRootFilesystem, privileged, pseudoTerminal, interactive, linuxParameters, systemControls, startTimeout and stopTimeout registered successfully but were never stored, sent to the agent, enforced, or echoed back on describe. Store and echo the fields the agent can enforce (user, readonly root filesystem, privileged, pseudo terminal, interactive, systemControls, capability add/drop, start/stop timeout), apply them through containerd via OCI spec options and a graceful Stop, and refuse at RegisterTaskDefinition the fields the agent cannot honor (mountPoints, volumesFrom, linuxParameters.devices/initProcessEnabled/ sharedMemorySize/tmpfs). Refusal only triggers on a value that asks for the restriction; empty lists and false/unset flags are accepted and echoed as before. * test: move the bus wire-contract test to an external package * fix(ecs-agent): release an interactive container's stdin so its copier exits * fix(ecs): return a caller-supplied empty collection instead of omitting it	2026-09-16 21:23:06 +10:00

Julian Sommer	c8d42ac160	docs: publish S3 API coverage ... S3 was the one served surface with no coverage page. The gateway has no operation-name dispatch table for it, so there was nothing to compare against the model. Predastore now declares the operations each of its S3 routes answers, so the generator compares that inventory the same way it compares the other nine services. The page credits Predastore rather than Spinifex, and its intro separates what is routed from what conforms, pointing at the ceph/s3-tests report for the second.	2026-09-15 10:51:19 +10:00
Ben Duncan	fea03a5b22	feat: verify JetStream replicas agree after formation, discard stores by default (#1031) ... spx admin init now discards the node's pre-formation JetStream store by default for --nodes >= 2; --discard-jetstream=false restores the refusal. spx admin kv digest gains --json with stream replica, retention and limit settings and per-sequence subject, time and TTL. The new spx admin kv compare reads every node's digest and fails only on real divergence: different content at one sequence, a missing message nothing explains, or wrong replica placement. install-node.sh gates formation on it and gains --ipsec on|off, verified on every node. The multi-node guide documents both.	2026-09-14 16:38:33 -05:00
Ben Duncan	455c97a2e7	fix: prod review of 14 September — IPsec follower reads, stopped-instance EIP probes, audit client IP and JetStream formation divergence (#1029) ... * fix: read NB_Global.ipsec through the NB remote list so followers and compute nodes answer quietly * fix: stop probing and nudging the EIP datapath of a stopped instance's port * fix: log the real client IP, request ID and duration_ms in the awsgw access line * test: mark the UI proxy header test as in-package * fix: discard pre-formation JetStream data when forming a multi-node cluster A node that ran as its own single-node cluster carries KV streams into formation. nats-server adopts a local stream with the same name as the clustered one, and raft catch-up only fetches sequences beyond a follower's last, so the conflicting prefix is never repaired and replicas diverge permanently. - spx admin join removes the local JetStream store once formation succeeds. A store holding streams now needs --force, and the identity-discard warning names it. - spx admin init --nodes >= 2 refuses a store that holds streams unless --discard-jetstream is given, and removes it once every node has joined. Keeping it as the seed is unsafe: stream leadership ignores who holds data, and unassigned local streams are deleted as orphans. - Neither removes a store while `spx service nats` runs, --force included. - install-node.sh passes --discard-jetstream and waits for every `spx service` process to exit before formation. * feat: add spx admin kv digest for per-replica JetStream consistency checks Replicas of a stream can hold different content while raft reports them current, and nothing in the cluster detects it. A direct get over NATS is no way to inspect one replica: a client's request goes to a random member of the direct-get queue group, routed replicas included. kv digest copies this node's $G streams tree (without consumer state) to a temporary directory, opens the copy in a private in-process server with no listener, and prints first/last sequence, message count and a SHA-256 over every stored message per stream. Running it on each node and diffing the output shows which streams diverge; --seqs locates the first differing sequence. The live store is only ever read. * fix: let spx admin kv digest read replicated streams A replicated stream's meta.inf carries num_replicas > 1, which a standalone server refuses to recover, so the digest could not read any production store. Rewrite the copy's config to one replica with no expiry and a recomputed checksum, and test it against a three-node cluster and an expired bucket. * test: use assert.ErrorIs for the removed JetStream store * test: mark the JetStream store and digest tests as in-package * fix: stop the process-group test misreading a reaped child as alive The test polled until the child was gone, then checked once more. A task being reaped shows state X for an instant, which processRunning counted as running, so that second look failed about 1 run in 50 under -race. * fix: wait for the recovery retry loop before removing a test's data dir restoreInstances starts the retry loop untracked, and it rewrites the local state file when it ends. A write landing during t.TempDir cleanup failed TestRestoreInstances_* with RemoveAll: directory not empty.	2026-09-14 15:39:03 -05:00

Josh Siviour	97d8e4f119	feat: let a node put every volume's WAL on its own device (#1010) ... A WAL fsync shares the device queue with predastore, the chunk cache and every other volume on the node. Measured on the e2e stack, competing filesystem traffic alone moves fsync p99 from 4.7ms to 22ms with no change to viperblock, which is the tail an etcd guest reports as its commit latency. wal_base_dir under [nodes.<n>.viperblock] routes the WAL elsewhere. It reaches both the short-lived VBs the service opens and, through the nbdkit argv, the plugin backing each mounted volume. Unset keeps the WAL under base_dir.	2026-09-07 21:53:55 +10:00
Ben Duncan	18853cef31	fix: close the four defects keeping the e2e nightly red (#1007) ... * fix: stop the e2e analyser inventing failures and let a detach outlast its seal go-junit-report emits <error message="No test result found"> for a === RUN with no matching result line, and attaches the test's own captured log as the body. The analyser counted those as failures, so the baremetal cell reported 25 failures against a junit file recording 1, with log output reading as assertions. Separate the marker from a real error in both the parse and the roll-up, count the unresolved cases and say so in the summary. The gateway gave a detach 30s while the daemon budgets 180s for the ebs.unmount seal and 180s more for the QMP unplug chain, so any detach whose seal replayed a WAL was reported as ServerInternal while it went on to succeed. Also switch four nightly job gates from always() to !cancelled(): always() overrides cancellation, so a cancelled run kept starting jobs. * fix: serialise the e2e workflows on one group and retry a dropped libvirt e2e.yml had no concurrency block at all, so every push to dev could provision alongside every other push and alongside the nightly. All four workflows that build on these hypervisors now share e2e-hypervisors, queued rather than cancelled. A per-environment group is not expressible: GitHub picks the group before it picks a runner, and the environment is a property of the runner. tofu apply also failed outright on a transient libvirt connect, which fails a 45-minute job in 90 seconds and reports it as a test failure. retry_run retries only when that attempt's own output names a connection failure, so a real failure still fails once. Also collect the unfiltered journal from the matrix cells and the node journal from cell-21: the unit filter drops the kernel and OOM lines that explain why one node behaved unlike its siblings, and a passing run's journal is what makes a failing one readable. * fix: build the baremetal junit from the unfiltered suite log run-baremetal-e2e.sh streams the full suite output to suite-output.log and a grep-filtered summary to its stdout, which the workflow tees into test-baremetal.log. That filter anchors --- PASS at column 0 and Go indents every subtest result by four spaces, so the junit was generated from a log with no subtest results in it: go-junit-report saw each === RUN with no outcome and emitted <error message="No test result found">. 17 of cell-28's 39 testcases and 93 of cell-20's 120 were that. Regenerating cell-28 from suite-output.log gives 39 tests, 0 failures, 0 errors. * fix: converge released EIPs instead of trusting a fire-and-forget teardown A disassociate leaves the ENI running, so the orphan sweep's owning-port test never fires for it. The teardown then rests entirely on vpc.delete-nat, which is core NATS and is lost whenever vpcd is restarting — and the intent KV watch is UpdatesOnly, so the same window hides the write that would have driven a repair pass. The dnat_and_snat row and its host /32 route to a released public address survived until something else happened to touch them, which for a live ENI was nothing at all. Give the sweep the second test it was missing: AddEIP is the only writer of dnat_and_snat, so the floating IPs intent asks for are the complete set of addresses that may hold one, and a row for any other address is stale however alive its port. Ports and external IPs travel together in LiveEIPs, both unioned from the start-of-pass snapshot and the fresh re-read, so a mid-pass launch is still spared. The host unbind now runs even when the row had already gone, which is the state a crash between the OVN delete and the unbind leaves. Run that sweep on the startup pass too. Startup is the pass that follows the blind window, so skipping it deferred repair of exactly the changes that were missed. The port-group and ENI-port sweeps stay gated there for the in-flight create they were written for; the EIP sweep re-reads intent immediately before deciding and abandons the whole sweep if that read fails, which is the same protection by a stronger route. * fix: keep a release verify off the hypervisors an e2e run is using release.yml is the fifth workflow that provisions on the ci-single pool and had no concurrency block at all, so a tag push could land a tofu apply on the same libvirt host a nightly cell was mid-provision on. The group goes on the verify job rather than the workflow: the build jobs touch no hypervisor and should not queue behind a nightly. * fix: stop cell-27 handing a 50-minute suite a 50-minute job The rds suite is budgeted 50m in suite-sets.sh and cell-27 took the matrix default of 50 minutes for the whole job, so provisioning, install, the suite and teardown had to fit inside the suite's allowance alone. It never could: the last measured run spent 6 minutes reaching the suite and was killed 44 minutes into it, mid-TestAutomatedBackups. A job timeout reports "The operation was canceled" and nothing else, which is why this cell has no verdict in any nightly rather than a failure anyone could read. cell-27 gets 75 minutes, and the select job now refuses to start a run whose job budget does not clear its suite budget plus a setup allowance. The inner timeout firing first is the property that matters: go test says where it stopped and what failed, and the job timeout says nothing at all. cell-29 already had the same fix applied by hand; nothing stopped the next suite from repeating it. * fix: converge host EIP plumbing against intent, not against the NAT row The released-EIP sweep landed and did not fire. Its premise was that a stranded dnat_and_snat row is what a stranded host route can be found by, and on the path that actually strands one there is no row left. AddEIP scrubs the predecessor row sharing the private IP before installing the new one, so when reconcile re-added the instance's auto-assigned address it silently deleted the released EIP's row — and applyEIPs runs ahead of the sweep, which then walked a table with nothing stale in it while the /32 route and its proxy-ARP stayed up. Give the sweep the host's own inventory. ListEIPIngress reads the EIPs back from the FORWARD accepts EnsureEIPIngress stamps with its own comment, so a binding is found by what installed it rather than by a row some other path is free to delete. Anything plumbed that intent no longer asks for is torn down, which also covers a crash between the OVN delete and the unbind. A failed inventory fails the pass: an empty list and an unreadable one are indistinguishable, and reading the second as the first is a sweep that reports success having done nothing. Close the window inside the pass too. The predecessor scrub now reads the row it is about to drop and releases that address's host state, so the strand does not exist between applyEIPs and the sweep rather than merely being repaired a step later. * fix: retry the release verify's libvirt calls like every other job does The verify job drives the same libvirt provider on the same hypervisors as the e2e cells, where a dropped connection under concurrent load is the steady state and is retried. Here it was a hard failure that reads as a broken release. It was skipped earlier only because the job checks out mulga and not spinifex, so the shared helpers were not on disk — a sparse checkout of .github/scripts costs nothing and makes apply and destroy behave like their e2e counterparts. * fix: do not report a rebooting DB instance available on the pre-reboot agent's health RegisterDBInstance stamped a fresh LastSeen while leaving Agent.EngineHealth at the value the previous agent process reported. After a reboot the new agent registers before it has probed anything, so the record read as a healthy engine with a beat newer than the transition, and the reconciler moved the instance to available while PostgreSQL was still starting up. A client that connects the moment the status turns green then gets "the database system is starting up". A register now discards the previous process's verdict and records when this agent process started. The restart reconciler requires that registration to be newer than the transition, which also closes the window where a beat lands between the engine being stopped and the VM going down. * test: record the credential kubectl sent when an EKS call comes back Unauthorized The IRSA pod subtest's first kubectl is the gateway-CA configmap, which lands before the pod dumps are registered, so a 401 there left no evidence at all. A verbose read-only probe reports whether an Authorization header was sent, which separates a token the apiserver rejected from one the exec plugin never made. * fix: report a starting engine promptly, and budget CI jobs from the suite The agent waited a full heartbeat interval before its first beat, so a restart could not be observed as finished for up to 30 seconds after the engine was already serving. Beat at startup instead, and report every 5 seconds until the engine has answered once — the control plane is actively waiting on that beat, and the steady-state cadence it hands back is for a database already serving. The rds suite is the one most sensitive to what else the hypervisor is doing: its DB VMs serialise behind a 4 GiB semaphore, so its wall clock is set by how long it waits for the budget. The same pass ran 45m beside four nightly cells and overran 50m beside nine, panicking with two tests still running. Raise its budget to 60m. That budget was then larger than the jobs meant to contain it. A job cancelled on timeout reports only "The operation was canceled" and takes the artifacts with it, so the inner `go test` timeout must always fire first — and it could not for rds on e2e.yml, nor for storagefault or diskperf, which have asked for 90m and 180m inside a 60m job since they were added. Both workflows now resolve their job budget from suite-sets.sh rather than carrying a literal: e2e.yml from the largest requested suite, e2e-suites.yml per matrix leg, so a leg is bounded by its own suite and not by the longest one beside it. The default push set resolves to exactly the timeouts both workflows had before. * fix: check a permutation cell's job budget against the suites it runs The guard only saw cells that name a suite, so the nine that run a topology's nightly subset were never checked against it — the same class of mistake the guard exists to catch, in the majority of the cells. Bound each by the longest suite in its subset: max() and not sum(), because whichever suite hangs must panic on its own timeout first, and a sum would demand a budget the set has never come close to using. Every cell clears it today. * fix: report why a PostgreSQL engine would not start, and stop failing a stop that landed Three defects, all found by the first rds pass that ever ran deep enough to reach them. A wait that saw an instance reach `failed` called t.Fatalf from inside the polling condition, and testify runs that condition on its own goroutine. The Goexit killed the tick and left the collector empty, which reads as the condition being satisfied — so the wait returned successfully on an instance it had just declared broken, logged "reached status available" about one that was failed, and let the test carry on against it. Six conditions across four suites call Fatal or require the same way. EventuallyErr now runs its condition on the test's goroutine, which makes all six behave as written. A DB VM stop has two drivers: the API call and the reconciler resuming one whose caller it assumes has died. When they overlap the loser is told the VM is not in a state to be stopped — which is the state the stop was heading for — and the customer's StopDBInstance returned InvalidDBInstanceState for a stop that had just completed. Both paths now treat a refused command the way they already treat an unanswered one: it says nothing about the VM, so the fleet view settles it. PostgreSQL had no equivalent of the engine log tail MariaDB has carried since it was added, so a postmaster that refuses a setting produced "engine did not respond on /run/postgresql:5432" and nothing else — on a guest with no SSH, whose console records only that pg_ctl could not start the server. The probe now quotes the tail of the log the image already directs the postmaster to, and the reboot and modify paths carry the agent's reason into the failure the way the create path always has. The reason reaches the customer through StatusInfos. The rds suite's budget goes to 90m and cell-27's job to 100m. Its wall clock is what the DB-VM queue costs rather than what the tests do — single tests logged 11m, 22m and 26m waiting for budget — and the pass above still had three of seventeen tests running at 60m. * fix: keep a DB VM recoverable when its agent cannot start, and flush the volume before a snapshot An rds-agent that failed to construct exited, so a transient IMDS credential resolution took the guest down for good: rds-datadir and rds-init cascade on the missing handoff, the engine never starts, and the control plane sees only silence until it declares the instance failed ten minutes later. Construction is retried like every other boot step instead. OpenRC skips start_post when the start itself fails, which is the one case with no diagnostic at all — the console carried nothing but "died". The log mirror moves out of the handoff wait so a failed start uses it too. A snapshot quiesced the engine and nothing else. The engine repairs its own files from the WAL, but postgresql.conf sits beside them and it does not: a restore came up on a torn tail and the postmaster stopped on a syntax error at the unterminated include hook. The quiesce now flushes the whole data mount, and the hook is renamed into place rather than appended, so a boot that finds a half written one replaces it instead of appending after its open quote. * fix: flush the config cloud-init wrote before a reset can take it A DB instance rebooted seconds after it went available came back with no RDS_GATEWAY_URL, so rds-agent could not reach the control plane and the engine never started. cloud-init writes agent.env once, per-instance, and never again; a reboot is a QMP system_reset with no guest shutdown, so the file was still dirty page cache when the machine reset under it and the next boot read nothing. The handoff wait now syncs, which is the point at which the agent has proved it read that file. * fix: stop dropping an EIP teardown published while vpcd is restarting DisassociateAddress publishes vpc.delete-nat fire-and-forget. On run 34046316024 vpcd disconnected from NATS at 03:51:26.73 and its replacement subscribed at 03:51:27.09; the publish landed at 03:51:26.92, in the gap, and went nowhere. ReleaseAddress then returned the address to the pool two minutes later with its /32 host route still delivering to the guest that had held it. vpc.delete-nat now uses request-reply like vpc.add-nat, and retries only on no-responders — which returns immediately, so the cost is paid solely when nothing is listening. A teardown that still fails is logged as an error naming the address rather than lost silently. Neither is fatal to the caller: the reconciler's orphan sweep remains the backstop. vpc.add-nat on the EIP path stays fire-and-forget. The shared helper blocks it on the flows barrier for up to 45s, and associating an address should not inherit that. Two reconcile passes in that run had the address absent from intent and did not sweep its host route, and the journal cannot say why: the sweep logged only when it acted, so a route it kept was indistinguishable from one it never saw. It now logs the bindings it found, kept and wanted. * ci: render one run-level table for the e2e nightly Reading a nightly meant opening nineteen jobs, and the Actions UI does not separate a cell that failed from one cancelled out from under it — a distinction every investigation of this suite has needed, and one the run 34046316024 analysis had to reach for the jobs API to get. A final job, needs: every cell and if: always(), renders cell, topology, result, duration, runner and per-cell test counts into the step summary, with run-level totals, the three slowest cells and the failing test names. Result, duration and runner come from the jobs API so a cell that died before writing junit still gets a row. Counts come from a new junit-only artifact per cell rather than the full cell artifact, so the roll-up does not pull nineteen journals it has no use for. Verified against run 34046316024: 14 success, 2 cancelled, 1 failure, with the two cancellations shown as cancelled rather than folded into failure. * fix: assert EC2's actual EIP semantics, and probe EKS auth on an authenticated path natuplink asserted that an instance's auto-assigned public IP is still plumbed after an EIP associated to the same instance is torn down. EC2 does the opposite: associating an EIP releases the auto-assigned address back into the pool, and it cannot be reused. Our datapath already does that — run 34059879666 shows 192.168.0.72's ingress removed at 07:09:44.000, 36ms before .73's was installed — so the test was asserting behaviour neither AWS nor we have. It now asserts the release at the point it happens, and that no public delivery remains after the teardown. This surfaced only once the teardown itself started working: the run's other assertions passed, including .73's removal, which was the failure before. Our records still disagree with our datapath — the ENI keeps the released address, which is why termination tears the old one down twice and never the current one. That is the remaining half of mulga-7zc9w and is not fixed here; it needs an IPAM release on the associate path. Separately, AuthDiagnostics read /version, which is anonymously readable, so its 200 was consistent with both branches it claimed to distinguish. It now runs auth whoami, reads kube-system, and invokes the credential plugin directly, reporting exit code, stderr and whether a token was produced — never the token, since CI logs outlive it. * test: capture per-guest state when a spread guest never answers SSH TestMultinodeSpread's only failure dump is dumpPlacementNATDiag, which collects OVN, OVS, ARP and route state aimed at the NAT and EIP half of the test. The failure it actually hits is a guest that never accepted SSH — run 34040324968, the guest on node3 at 10.100.2.5 — and for that it recorded no console, no port binding and no tap state. There was no way to tell from the artifact whether the guest booted at all. Now dumps, per guest: the console, the NB logical switch port, the SB port binding, the OVS interface backing its tap, and br-int's port list. Probed on every node rather than the expected one, because a port bound on the wrong chassis is exactly what a hosting-node-only dump cannot show. Covers all three guests, not just the failing one, so a working guest is available as the control. * ci: sample hypervisor load either side of every cell Eight runner names map onto three hypervisors, so cells that never share a runner still share a host: when cell 10's SSH wait expired on run 34040324968, cells 22, 17, 18 and 28 were concurrently live, two of them multi-node. Nothing in the artifacts measured host load, which left co-tenancy as an explanation that could be neither confirmed nor ruled out. Records loadavg, MemAvailable, SwapFree, the cpu line carrying steal, and the QEMU process count before and after each cell, into the cell artifact. * ci: note that main's missing concurrency block is why the nightly runs ungrouped Three refs carry three different groupings: main has no concurrency block at all, dev uses e2e-nightly, this branch uses e2e-hypervisors. Scheduled runs load the workflow from the default branch, so every cron nightly runs ungrouped and cannot queue against anything — which is how a dispatch of 34050630627 ran alongside the scheduled 34046316024 and cost it cells 24 and 27. e2e-hypervisors is the right group and deliberately broader than dev's, since e2e.yml, e2e-suites.yml and e2e-ddil.yml draw on the same runner pools. Nothing on a feature branch can fix this; the block has to reach main.	2026-09-06 16:53:32 -05:00
Ben Duncan	7ddcac53bb	feat: block outbound SMTP egress via platform OVN ACL (#1001) ... * feat: block outbound SMTP egress via platform OVN ACL Add a platform egress ACL that drops outbound TCP to 25/465/587 for public destinations on every guest, matching AWS's default outbound-SMTP block. The control is global by default with an operator-held per-VPC exemption; tenants cannot open the ports via a security group because the block sits above the tenant-allow priority band. Private destinations are always exempt. Config exposes blocked_ports_wan (nil defaults to [25,465,587], [] disables) and egress_block_exempt_vpcs. Adds unit tests for the ACL builder, the SG manager wiring and the config resolution, plus an e2e that digs gmail.com MX and confirms a 5s SMTP connect is blocked while other WAN egress works. * docs: note the multi-node sync + restart requirement for the egress block	2026-09-04 16:45:26 -05:00
Josh Siviour	31eb3bc672	fix: fail a credential refresh instead of extending a dead key's expiry (#995) ... ec2rolecreds implements aws.HandleFailRefreshCredentialsCacheStrategy, which aws.CredentialsCache prefers over returning the refresh error. When the cached credential is expired or within five minutes of expiring and the refresh fails, it hands back the same access key, secret and session token with Expires pushed a random five to fifteen minutes out, reported as a success. Every later refresh fails the same way, so ecs-agent signs with a credential the control plane has already rejected, indefinitely, and nothing surfaces it. The cache picks its strategies by asserting on the provider's dynamic type, so returning aws.CredentialsProvider from NewProvider does not disarm it. Wrap the provider in a type whose method set omits HandleFailToRefresh, and the cache falls through to returning the error. AdjustExpiresBy is forwarded on purpose: it only fires under an ExpiryWindow, which no caller sets today, but dropping it silently would change behaviour for whoever sets one. Fixed in imdscreds rather than at the one exposed call site, so a future caller that wraps this provider in a cache is safe by construction. ecr-credential-provider was never affected: it calls Retrieve uncached. Two comments claimed the hazard was ec2rolecreds capping Expires to an hour. That cap only ever shortens a too-far-future expiry and is unrelated.	2026-09-04 12:00:31 +10:00
Ben Duncan	828b5df4aa	fix: pause a guest on a backend I/O error instead of handing it EIO (#977) ... * fix: fail DRAIN when a volume seal failed shutdownAndUnmount logged the volume unmount error and returned nothing, so StopAll returned nil and the DRAIN phase ACKed success with vms_stopped set. The coordinator then advanced to STORAGE and stopped viperblock while the seal was still in flight, tearing the VBState envelope and leaving the guest unable to mount its root volume on the next boot. The deploy reported success. shutdownAndUnmount now returns ErrVolumeSealFailed when the unmount did not seal; QMP, PID-file, fw_cfg and telemetry cleanup stay best-effort. stopCleanup and stopOne carry it without aborting the rest of the teardown, since QEMU is already down by then, and StopAll aggregates the per-VM failures so handleShutdownDrain ACKs with Error set and never reports vms_stopped. volumeMounterAdapter.Unmount was the second swallow site: it logged each failed seal and returned nil unconditionally. It now attempts every volume and returns the aggregate, which is what the VolumeMounter contract already described. Terminate still tolerates a failed seal — the volumes are deleted next, so an unsealed block map loses nothing a caller can ask for. This does not fix the seal itself. It converts silent data loss into a refused upgrade that an operator can act on. * test: add the storagefault e2e suite for backend-outage guest survival Freezes predastore with SIGSTOP to hold connections open while answering nothing, which is the fault a timeout-free path cannot distinguish from a slow peer. On one node that is a total outage; on three it freezes every node but the guest's own, breaking the RS(2,1) shard floor. The suite writes and flushes a verifiable region before the fault and churns a separate unverified region during it, so an interrupted write is never mistaken for lost data. The root-filesystem load runs from the user's home rather than /tmp, which is tmpfs on this image and would move no bytes on the root device. * test: verify the root device is under write pressure, and size the outage The previous guard matched /^ *vda / against /proc/diskstats, where the device name is the third field, and read $7 which is ms_reading rather than sectors_written. It printed empty and asserted nothing, so a green run could not distinguish a surviving guest from an idle disk. It now samples sectors_written twice and fails unless it advances. The outage is sized from viperblock's absorption rather than guessed: a workload must fill DefaultMaxPendingBytes before backpressure engages at all, so a short freeze measures the retry budget rather than the fault. * test: add nbdkit fault injection to the storage-fault e2e suite The predastore freeze takes the whole storage cluster away from every guest on it, which is too broad to run beside anything else. Removing a single volume's NBD server is the same fault at one-volume scope: one host, one guest, nothing cluster-wide stopped. Both signals are here because they sit on opposite sides of the defect. SIGSTOP holds the socket open and answers nothing, so the guest blocks and no error reaches ext4. SIGKILL closes it, and QEMU's nbd driver at the default reconnect-delay of 0 fails requests at once, which under werror=report aborts the journal. Signalling is guarded: a pid is matched on comm, our plugin and the volume argument together, and re-confirmed immediately before the signal, because these hosts run nbdkit for other volumes and pids are reused. * fix: pause a guest on a backend I/O error instead of handing it EIO Every virtio-blk device was created with werror=report,rerror=report, so a backend outage was delivered to the guest as EIO. ext4 aborts its journal on that and remounts read-only, and the write that failed is simply gone. Under werror=stop QEMU pauses the VM and holds the failed request, so a backend that comes back resumes the guest with nothing lost. The boot drive, the cold-boot data volume and the hot-plugged data volume all move to stop. Alongside it the NBD transport gets reconnect-delay=30, which pauses requests rather than failing them while a storage process restarts on the same socket; on the legacy -drive form it has to be file.reconnect-delay, because the bare name reaches the raw format driver, which has no such option. The QMP heartbeat now recognises run state io-error and issues cont. After ten attempts the instance is reported impaired and the cadence drops to one attempt per ten heartbeats, but it never stops: QEMU holds the request for as long as the guest exists, so a backend that returns an hour later can still be resumed. The storagefault suite gains the fault this was written for — kill the volume's own nbdkit, hold, then put it back on the same socket — and it now verifies a sha256 region across the outage rather than trusting the guest to be reachable. Three harness defects went with it: the socket-liveness poll ran unprivileged against a 0770 directory and could never succeed, the relaunched socket was left 0755 where QEMU needs group write, and the two variants shared one guest so a fault in the first was diagnosed in the second. * test: cover the io-error resume policy * test: stop two parallel tests racing on the terminate backoff variable * fix: report a guest paused on a backend I/O error as impaired A guest held by werror=stop kept reporting ok on both status checks. QMP stays responsive while the guest is paused -- cont is being sent and answered -- so the QMP failure gate that DescribeInstanceStatus keys on never trips, and the one state a customer most needs to see looked healthy. Instance status now reports impaired/failed while the resume budget is non-zero, timestamped from IOErrorSince so impairedSince is when the guest paused rather than when it was escalated. System status reports impaired too: a backend I/O error is an infrastructure fault, not a guest one, and that distinction is what the two checks exist to draw. The counter is cleared by the first poll that sees the guest running, so both clear on recovery. * test: reap the relaunched nbdkit when the fault test ends relaunchNbdkit detaches the server with setsid so it outlives the SSH session that started it, and viperblockd never learned it exists. Nothing reaped it, so every run left an nbdkit holding a socket and a cache for a volume that was later detached or deleted -- four were found running on dev-prod against two detached and two deleted volumes. The PID is resolved from the socket path rather than the volume id, so a legitimate viperblockd server for the same volume is never the one killed. * test: prove the backend is serving before a fault is called cleared Thawing the process a fault stopped is not the same as restoring the service. The outage test treated SIGCONT as the end of the fault and went straight to judging the guest, so it passed while the cluster it ran on stayed unable to serve a single object for the next 35 minutes, and the next test would have inherited that. thawPredastore now puts and gets an object through every gate, with a budget, and fails the test if the backend does not come back. * fix: do not hand back a mount entry whose export is gone A volume whose unmount failed kept its entry in MountedVolumes while its nbdkit was gone. Every later ebs.mount then matched that entry and returned its socket path, so vmMgr waited for a socket nothing would ever create and the instance could not be started again — on dev-prod a guest stopped against a frozen backend was left permanently stopped, four start attempts failing identically on a socket the node had already removed. Drop the entry when there is positive evidence the export is dead: the socket is absent, or the recorded pid is not running. Neither can be true of a live export, so the double-writer hazard the guard exists to prevent is unaffected. Also make the durability test's pattern helpers report failures. The read dd sat in a pipeline, so its exit status was discarded and the harness hashed nothing and returned the empty-string sha256 as a checksum. * test: report the guest console when a restart never answers SSH A restart that reaches running but never comes back is indistinguishable from a dead root filesystem without the serial console, and the log is gone once the fixture terminates the instance. * fix: converge guest port datapaths concurrently, not one deadline after another Each guest port that misses its SB binding burns the full convergence deadline, and applyEIPs spent them in series. Three ports belonging to long-stopped instances therefore held a newly launched guest's EIP dark for the sum of them before its own probe started. AddEIP stays serial since it mutates NB. Only the waits fan out, bounded, and sb-cluster-state-reset is now serialised with a minimum interval so concurrent probes cannot each fire a cluster-wide resync. * fix: refuse a stale cross-node start after the owning node is gone The volume lease already refused a cross-node mount, but it is a liveness claim: 45s TTL, renewed every 15s. A node that dies holding un-uploaded writes stops renewing, and 45 seconds later nothing refuses a start elsewhere that loads a stale backend checkpoint. A failed seal now writes a durable marker naming the node holding the only current copy, cleared on a seal that reaches the backend and on delete. The lease covers a live holder, the marker a dead one. The refusal also reaches the caller instead of being flattened to ServerInternal, which told an operator to retry something that cannot succeed while the holder is down. * fix: keep the daemon's message when a start is refused Rebuilding the error from the code alone rendered the generic ErrorLookup text, so a refusal naming the node holding the volume reached the caller as boilerplate about attaching volumes. * fix(ec2): terminate detaches every DeleteOnTermination=false volume TerminateStoppedInstance skipped the detach for a non-Boot DoT=false volume on the assumption that Stop's Unmount had already cleared its attachment. Unmount only clears it when the seal succeeded, so a volume whose seal failed stayed in-use pointing at an instance that terminate then deleted, leaving it unreachable with no owner to release it. The running-instance path already detaches every DoT=false volume; the stopped path now matches it, and tolerates an already-gone volume the same way. DeleteVolume also keeps its provider error on the way out. The terminate reaper retries the delete every two minutes and logged a bare ServerInternal, which made a blob node being down indistinguishable from a transient fault. * fix(ec2): DetachVolume --force releases a volume whose instance is gone The ordinary detach routes to ec2.cmd.{instanceID} for the guest unplug, so a volume left attached by a part-way teardown could never be detached: the instance no longer runs anywhere and nothing answers. That also made it undeletable, since DeleteVolume refuses an attached volume. ForceDetachVolume already existed for this deadlock but was reachable only from account teardown. Force now falls back to it when the instance has no responder, which is the one case where clearing the attachment cannot strand a live guest. * fix(viperblock): unsealed writes steer placement instead of pinning a volume The dirty marker refused any mount from a node other than the one holding unsealed writes. Instance start already forwards to the node that last ran the instance and falls back after a 30s window, so that refusal turned a working fallback into a volume that could run nowhere once its owner was gone. It traded a rare data-loss risk for a permanent availability failure. The marker is now a record and a warning, not a gate. A takeover logs the previous holder and why it could not seal, then adopts the marker so the old node is no longer treated as the better source. Live exclusion is unchanged and still enforced by the lease. It is also written on open rather than on seal failure. A node killed mid-write never reaches its seal, so the old trigger left no trace in exactly the case the marker exists to describe. Adds 'spx admin volumes unsealed' to see which volumes would cost something if started elsewhere. * fix(viperblock): fence a volume whose lease moved instead of logging it The lease was checked once, at mount, and never again. A node that lost it kept its export up and kept writing into a volume another node owned, so both copies advanced and the backend settled it by arrival order. Losing a renewal now decides: another holder means tear the export down, no holder means the entry merely aged out, so reclaim it and leave the guest running. Fencing never seals — this node's copy is the stale one — and leaves the dirty marker for the winner to take over. This is not an epoch fence. It narrows the window from the 45s TTL to one renewal interval at no write-path cost; the backend still cannot refuse a stale writer. * fix(network): advertise EIPs so a recycled address is reachable The gateway switch port only asked ovn-northd to publish the router's NAT addresses in centralised and routed modes, so on a distributed cluster nothing ever announced an elastic IP. OVN still answers ARP for it, which is why a first-time allocation works and hid this — but no gratuitous ARP is sent when the address moves to a new ENI, so every host on the segment keeps resolving it to the previous holder's MAC until its cache ages out. Reusing an address from the pool then lands on a dead MAC and the instance is unreachable from outside. Distributed mode needs the option as much as the others: northd scopes each entry with is_chassis_resident(<vif port>), so the announcement leaves from the chassis running the instance rather than the gateway, which is what distributed NAT wants. Converge on the already-attached path too. AttachIGW returns early once the gateway port exists and nothing else rewrites it, so without that an existing VPC would stay silent for its whole life. Confirmed on dev-prod: setting the option moved three EIPs from unadvertised to carrying their correct external_mac, each scoped to its own ENI's port. * fix(viperblock): make the volume fence and its dirty marker ownership-safe Four corrections to the lease-loss fence, all found in review. Drop the reacquire path. Losing a lease and finding no successor was treated as a lapsed entry worth reclaiming, but leases.acquire returns the cached entry — already flagged lost, with a dead renewal goroutine — so the "reclaimed" lease renewed nothing and the node went on writing a volume it could not prove it owned. The two errors are not symmetric: a false fence costs one guest a restart, a false reclaim leaves two nodes writing one volume. Fence in both cases, and report which happened through the outcome attribute. Surrender a lease this node cannot confirm. Renewal only noticed a loss when the server rejected an update, so a node partitioned from NATS kept its export up while the TTL expired and another node took the volume. Track the last confirmed renewal and give the volume up once that ages past the point where the server may admit another owner. Bound the renewal call too, so a hung JetStream request cannot hold the goroutine past that point. Do not act on a kill that did not take. Both the fence and ebs.unmount removed the mount entry, released the lease and announced the result before knowing nbdkit had exited — the fence then reported a writer stopped that was still running, and the unmount sealed into a directory a live process was writing. Wait for the exit, and on failure leave the volume mounted and say so. An already-exited process now counts as success, which is what the caller asked. Give the dirty marker a generation. It recorded an owner and nothing to order two nodes' claims, so a node returning after a takeover could clear or overwrite the winner's marker and point placement back at the stale copy. Stamp the lease generation, refuse a write from an older one, and only clear a marker this node still owns. A marker that cannot be written now fails the open rather than leaving writes nothing records. * test(viperblock): cover the stall surrender and the unmount kill guard The two ownership cases the fence work left untested. A holder partitioned from NATS while the winner keeps it never gets an update rejected, so revision checking cannot see it — it has to give the volume up on its own clock. Pins that validity sits below the server TTL with room for a check in between, that a lapsed holder reports the loss as a stall rather than as a takeover, and that releasing a surrendered lease leaves the entry for whoever holds it now. The unmount side of the kill guard: sealing under a live nbdkit writes a state torn between two writers, so a kill that did not take has to fail the unmount and leave the entry mounted for a retry. * fix(e2e): keep the guest private key for as long as the key pair EnsureKeyPair computed the PEM path from the caller's directory but wrote the file inside the ensureOnce closure, which runs only on the first call. Callers passed a per-test artifact dir, and ArtifactDir removes that dir when the test passes — so the first test's success deleted the only copy of the private key while the key pair stayed registered, and every later call returned a path nothing had ever been written to. Guests after the first were then launched against a public key whose private half no longer existed, so the harness could never authenticate and gave up after the full five-minute budget. The guests were healthy and reachable on tcp/22 throughout, which is why this read as a storage or network fault for so long. The directory parameter was the defect, so it is gone: the PEM now lives in a directory the fixture owns and removes with the key pair, and no caller can supply one that is shorter-lived. Also reorder the killed-nbdkit teardown. The reaper registered its own cleanup after the detach registered one, so LIFO killed the block server before the platform detached the disk and DetachVolume then failed with "Node ... is in use". The detach cleanup now reaps once it is done. * fix: stop leaking an nbdkit export when recovery cannot adopt it Restart recovery adopts a guest's boot volume, then routinely fails the -efi volume with "claim lease: context deadline exceeded" -- JetStream is still catching up at daemon start and the KV claim runs on the client's 5s default. Recovery gave up on the first error and never retried, so the export stayed live with no registry entry. At terminate the unmount found nothing to seal, returned NotFound and killed nothing, and the process outlived its guest holding the volume and socket open. EFI is always the second volume adopted, which is why it was always the one that leaked. Two changes, because either alone leaves a hole: - rebuildMountedVolume retries the build (4 attempts, 3s apart) so a JetStream that is merely slow no longer orphans an export for the life of the process. - unmountVolume reaps a corroborated export for the volume it was asked to unmount when the registry has no entry for it, so an export orphaned by any means is still cleaned up. The reap goes through reapOrphanedNbdkit, which declines anything a live process references: at unmount the guest's blockdev may not be torn down yet, and killing the server underneath it strands QEMU. * test: hold the backend-serving probe and assert predastore readiness The backend-outage test declared the backend restored on one successful round trip through each gate. A gate can answer the request that arrives just after a thaw and then lose its blob peers under the load that follows, which is a backend that never recovered reported as one that did -- and that is what happened: the probe reported all three gates serving minutes before the guest was still taking BLOCK_IO_ERROR on every resume. The round trip has to hold across three rounds now, and the count restarts rather than decays when one fails, so a gate that serves and then stops is the failure the hold is looking for rather than noise it averages out. It also checks /readyz on each host and reports any failed check by name. The round trip only proves this workstation can write through a gate; it says nothing about which blob peers that gate can reach, and a gate one node short of the write floor serves a small object and fails a guest. A host that serves no admin listener is logged and skipped, since the port is optional configuration. * fix: scope predastore's admin port to the cluster plane in the host policy predastore's admin listener binds the host's cluster bind_addr and serves /healthz and /readyz unauthenticated. Readiness now names which blob peers a gate cannot reach, which is exactly the kind of topology detail 4432 is peer-scoped for, so 8660 joins it in the peer-scoped rule rather than the public one. * fix: keep resuming a paused guest at heartbeat rate after a long outage Past ten attempts the cont dropped to one per ten heartbeats, so a guest whose backend had come back could sit paused for another five minutes before anything retried it. Measured on dev-prod: the backend was proved serving through all three gates while the guest was still waiting on attempt 60, five minutes after attempt 50. The slowdown was there to avoid paying a failed I/O every thirty seconds on a backend still down. That is nearly free, and five minutes of downtime after recovery is not, so only the log line is throttled now. * test: fail the run when a key pair name resolves to more than one pair A create that lands twice leaves two key pairs with one name and different material. RunInstances resolves the name to one of them while the harness holds the private key of the other, and the only symptom is every guest in the run refusing the key at the SSH gate — five minutes of waiting per guest, four guests, and nothing anywhere naming the cause. Observed on dev-prod: two pairs created a millisecond apart, both named e2e-key-30de10ba. One DescribeKeyPairs after the create says so outright instead. * test: tolerate an already-released volume in the detach teardown Teardown runs DetachVolumeWait after a terminate that releases the volume itself, so the detach can arrive at a volume already on its way to available. That is the outcome it wanted, and treating the IncorrectState refusal as fatal failed a backend-outage run whose assertions had all passed — the guest came back, every acknowledged write verified, and the test still went red on the way out. VolumeInUse is still fatal: that one means the volume is attached somewhere it should not be. * test: carry the merged suites onto the reworked key-pair and account-scoped seams The diskperf suite arrived on dev calling EnsureKeyPair with the artifact dir this branch removed, and DeleteVolume's metadata lookup is account-scoped now, so the provider-failure test has to seed and delete under the same account. * refactor: make the fence outcome a type in one const block Four separate exported string constants with a paragraph of comment each, passed to RecordVolumeFence as a bare string. Group them, give them a FenceOutcome type, and take that type at both call sites so an arbitrary value can no longer reach the metric attribute. * refactor: move viperblockd's wire contract into a leaf vbwire package The daemon imported viperblockd for exactly two symbols -- the fenced volume subject and its event -- which put the storage service back on the daemon's dependency graph to name something it only listens for. vbwire holds the contract instead: the subject and event, the dirty bucket name and record shape, and the read-only listing an operator tool needs. It imports nothing from spinifex, so both the daemon and the admin CLI drop their edge to viperblockd entirely. cmd/service.go keeps its one, which is genuine: it constructs the service. * docs: drop a specific host name from the start-refusal comment Named a real dev-prod host in a comment and in test fixtures. Say what the name is instead. * ci: give storagefault a dedicated nightly cell The suite is eligible for both topologies and runs on the PR gate, but no nightly cell ran it: the permutation cells run a deliberately narrow subset and none of the dedicated suite cells named it. Cell 29, single-node, following eks/ecs/rds. It cannot join a permutation cell -- it SIGSTOPs a cluster-wide service, so every suite sharing that environment would report the outage as its own failure. * ci: run storagefault nightly on three nodes, not one The previous commit put its dedicated cell on a single-node runner. That was the wrong topology and the wrong justification: single-node is RS(1,0), where the shard floor cannot be broken and a cross-node takeover after a failed seal does not exist, so the two assertions worth having a dedicated cell for were the two it could not make. Cell 29 is now real-multi on ci-multi. It also corrects the claim that the PR gate already covers the multi-node case. The suite is eligible for both topologies, but e2e.yml's default suite list never names it, so it has never run there. A full pass is ~63 minutes on dev-prod bare metal, almost all of it deliberate waiting -- one test holds predastore SIGSTOPped for seven minutes -- which is too long to add to a gate that currently finishes well inside its budget. Nightly is where it belongs. Consequences: a per-cell timeout_minutes, defaulting to the previous 50, since 90 minutes of suite cannot run in a 50-minute job; the permutation steps gated on matrix.suite == '' so the dedicated cells do not also run them; and a Run Multi Suite E2E step that builds NODES_CSV from the tofu inventory and asserts the suite against E2E_SUITES_MULTI before running it. * fix: stop a startup KV race leaving vpcd serving keyless guests vpcd opens five KV buckets while NATS is still coming up, each attempt carrying a ~5s JetStream API deadline, and applied three different policies to the same failure: spinifex-vpc-enis was fatal, while instance-state, security-groups, subnets and vpcs each degraded silently for the lifetime of the process. A five-second blip during a cold start therefore decided how a node served metadata until someone restarted it. On dev-prod all three nodes hit this after a deploy. Two were saved by accident: their ENI bucket also timed out, so they exited 1 and systemd restarted them cleanly. The third's ENI bucket opened in time, so it never crashed and ran for hours with no instance record loader. With the local state file unreadable as well, every instance-backed IMDS leaf 404'd, cloud-init's crawl died on ami-id and fell back to DataSourceNone, and every guest launched on that node booted with no authorized_keys. kvstore.OpenWithRetry retries for a bounded window before any policy applies, logs the cause per attempt and the wait on a late success, wraps the last error with the bucket name, and returns at once on a cancelled context. All five opens use it. Failing to open the instance record space is now fatal, matching the ENI bucket: the dependency whose loss stops guests logging in should not be treated more leniently than the one whose loss stops ENI resolution. Also fixes the reason the fallback was load bearing at all. The local state file was written 0600 and vpcd reads it as a different user in the shared spinifex group, so the local-first path had never once worked and its mtime+size cache had never fired. It is 0640 now, set with an explicit Chmod so an inherited umask cannot undo it. Closes mulga-gtpzz, mulga-dhqxr. Still open: mulga-mm2oc, IMDS serving an unresolvable instance as "no key pair" with nothing logged. * fix: scope the ime-* firewall accept to IMDS and VPC DNS only The per-tap OVS demux delivers any guest packet addressed to 169.254.169.254 or .253 onto an ime-* host port regardless of L4 port, and iifname "ime-*" accept then admitted all of it. Every wildcard-bound host service — sshd, the AWS gateway, northstar, the console — answered guest packets on those addresses; only asymmetric reply routing kept the handshake from completing, and a guest could still drive northstar to recurse unthrottled. Scope the accept to IMDS (.254:80) and VPC DNS (.253:53), letting everything else fall through to policy drop. * docs: document the instance-to-host plane and how to protect it without the ISO The metadata/VPC-DNS link-local plane (169.254.169.254/.253) is served by host services and is invisible to a NIC-level or cloud firewall, since the traffic is intra-host on the OVS bridge. Explain that the ISO ships the scoping rule armed, that the binary installer ships the firewall off, and that a non-ISO install must enable it with setup.sh --firewall=on or firewall_enabled=true. Include verification from an instance and the host. * fix: withhold the IMDS meta-data listing when the instance does not resolve Every omission from the meta-data root is a positive claim about the instance — public-keys/ absent means "launched without a key pair", and cloud-init believes it, writes no authorized_keys and boots the guest keyless. So resolving the instance was best-effort for a listing whose whole meaning depends on it: a backend error or a miss shortened the listing instead of failing it, and nothing anywhere recorded that the answer was a guess. Withhold the listing with a 500 instead. cloud-init retries a 5xx and cannot retry a 200 that is merely wrong, so this converts a permanent silent failure into a transient loud one. servePublicKeys already had this policy for the leaf; the root is what contradicted it. A profile lookup that fails still serves the listing minus iam/, and now logs. The key pair is the field a guest cannot recover from losing, while a missing role surfaces through the credentials leaf, which reports the miss itself. Also stops the storagefault cross-node test failing on its own access path. It tolerates the pattern changing across a takeover, but readPattern needs sudo, and a volume opened from the backend checkpoint may predate cloud-init writing its sudoers drop-in — indistinguishable from an unreadable device at the dd call site. It now checks sudo first, and reads cloud-init's recorded datasource to tell a rolled-back root filesystem from IMDS never having answered, failing loudly on the latter rather than accepting it as storage loss. --------- Co-authored-by: brynmailer-mdc <bdm@mulgadc.com>	2026-09-03 19:45:33 -05:00
Ben Duncan	b6d01370dd	fix: render northstar's recursion allowlist so a node is not an open resolver (#993) ... * fix: render northstar's recursion allowlist so a node is not an open resolver northstar.toml is written with allow_recursion = false and an allow_recursion_from list built from cluster membership, so a freshly formed node serves recursion to the cluster and refuses it to the internet. The list is the node's own bind and advertise addresses plus every peer's host, with any port stripped. Both local addresses matter: a node's resolv.conf points at its own advertised address, so the query arrives from that public IP over lo rather than from 127.0.0.1, and an allowlist of loopback alone would stop every node resolving internal names. Guests are covered without appearing in the list. vpcd's per-tap DNS shim relays guest queries to a node's :5300 from a node address, so trusting the nodes trusts every guest behind them and no guest CIDR is needed. The template comment carries the caveats for allow_recursion = true, since the cost of setting it is remote from the setting: an open resolver is found by scanners within hours and gets the node's whole address range blocklisted, which is an outage for every tenant on it. The list is rendered at formation, so a node added later is not in its peers' files. Regenerating it live from membership, as the daemon already does for peers.nft, is follow-on work tracked on mulga-t3mub. * chore: pin northstar to the recursion ACL and atomic zone reload The recursion allowlist this branch renders is enforced by northstar's RecursionPolicy, which lands in dev at a0e741e. CI resolves northstar from go.mod rather than the workspace, so the build failed on NewRecursionPolicy being undefined until this pin moved. The AWS SDK bumps come with it.	2026-09-03 12:48:16 -05:00
Julian Sommer	d8d3e2268d	feat: partition EBS metadata keys by owning account (#989)	2026-09-03 15:38:23 +10:00
Josh Siviour	c767f2b6ee	feat: judge DescribeInstances completeness by responder identity, and resolve IMDS locally (#985) ... * feat: stamp the owning node's AZ on the instance record RunInstance never persists a node's AZ onto the stored instance, so today only the launching node's own ProjectInstance call can produce a correct AZ for a describe. Add VM.AZ, carry it on InstanceStatus since it is placement observed by the running node, and stamp it in WriteRunningSet alongside Status.LastNode from the node's own config.AZ. * docs: trim the AZ field comment to the project's three-line limit * fix: identify Gather responders by node, not by frame count utils.Gather previously counted reply frames toward completeness, so two subscriptions replying from one host (a daemon mid-restart) could satisfy a fan-out while a genuinely configured node stayed silent. Every daemon reply now carries an X-Node-ID header set by the shared response helpers via nats.Msg.RespondMsg, so Gather can attribute each frame to the node that sent it. Gather gains a CollectionMode (CollectServeData preserves today's early-exit behavior; CollectUntilDeadline collects to the full deadline for absence-proof callers) and returns node-identified Frames plus Responders/ SuccessResponders/ErrorResponders sets. Identity mode retains only the first payload seen per node; a disagreeing later frame from the same node flags a conflict but never overwrites the retained data. Node identity uses one namespace across the reply header, config.ClusterConfig.Nodes keys, daemon.Heartbeat.Node, and vm.VM.LastNode, all traced back to Daemon.node - confirmed to already agree, with a new test asserting it at runtime. This is a mechanical caller-side follow-on: every existing utils.Gather caller now reads frame.Data instead of frame directly. * feat: thread configured node set to DescribeInstances GatewayConfig gains NodeIDs, the keys of config.ClusterConfig.Nodes, distinct from the existing ExpectedNodes count. awsgw builds it from cluster config and wires it into GatewayConfig. The DescribeInstances action passes gw.NodeIDs through instead of relying on gw.DiscoverActiveNodes(ctx) at that call site, so completeness can be judged against the nodes that are actually configured rather than the nodes that happened to answer a discovery probe. * fix: judge DescribeInstances completeness by node identity DescribeInstancesChecked now judges completeness on decoded frames against the configured node set (ValidResponders) rather than on Gather's frame/byte counts, which cannot know the describe schema. A node that answers with a nil Reservations list is a valid responder, not an invalid one - the existing merge guard on Reservations != nil governs how frames combine, not whether the node counted as having answered. The explicit-instance-ID 404 path now collects with CollectUntilDeadline so a node that hasn't replied yet cannot be mistaken for a node that has nothing to report; general listing stays on CollectServeData. Any ambiguity - an unidentified frame, a node appearing in both the success and error sets, a node replying twice with disagreeing frames, a Gather cap hit, or an empty/unset node set - suppresses the NotFound rather than risking a false one. * fix: let a describe by instance id stop once every id is found CollectUntilDeadline made every DescribeInstances with explicit ids wait the full 3s fan-out deadline, measured at 4650ms against 1655ms before, on a healthy cluster where all three nodes answer in about a millisecond. Gather gains a Settled predicate, consulted only under CollectUntilDeadline, that ends collection once the replies already answer the question. Absence still pays the whole deadline, and an instance the caller cannot see is filtered out of every frame so it takes the absence path too, which keeps the two NotFound answers indistinguishable in time. * refactor: resolve IMDS instance metadata local-first, drop the fan-out IMDS only ever serves a guest on its own node, so a DescribeInstances fan-out to the whole cluster is unnecessary latency and load. Resolve from the node's own on-disk VM state first, falling back to a direct record-space read for an instance that has moved off this node. Neither path issues a NATS request. * perf: cache the local instance state parse for IMDS lookups IMDS request rate is guest-driven and unbounded, so re-reading and re-parsing the whole on-disk VM state on every request does not scale with VM count on a node. Cache the parsed state and only re-read when the file's mtime or size changes; a stat or parse failure clears the cache and falls back to the record space rather than serving a stale hit. * fix: share ManagedBy visibility rule between DescribeInstances and IMDS Extracts IsInstanceVisibleToCaller so account ownership and the platform-managed hide rule live in one place instead of two independently maintained copies. * refactor: decouple IMDS instance lookup from the daemon package handlers/imds no longer imports daemon: NewIMDSServiceImpl now takes a localStateReader and a recordLoader interface instead of a dataDir string, and vpcd (the composition root for both planes) constructs both adapters, including the stat-guarded local-state cache that used to live inline in handlers/imds. Either adapter may be nil, degrading that source to a miss rather than failing IMDS to start. * test: move the local state reader test to an external package * chore: exempt export_test.go from the external test package check The check's own remedy text tells you to move unexported hooks into an export_test.go, then flags that file for being in-package — which it is by definition, since exporting internals is its whole purpose. * fix: bound how many describes may hold a full fan-out deadline A describe naming an instance the caller cannot see is filtered out of every frame, so it never settles early and holds a gateway goroutine and inbox subscription for the whole 3s deadline. Issuing those is free for the caller, so nothing stopped a burst of them pinning unbounded gateway state. Absence proofs now draw on a fixed budget. Past it, callers get a retryable RequestLimitExceeded rather than being queued, since queueing would let the backlog grow. The decision is taken before any reply is read, so a nonexistent id and another account's id throttle identically and the throttle cannot become the timing oracle the deadline exists to close. * perf: settle describe-by-id on responder coverage, not the full deadline Every describe-by-id was paying the whole 3s fan-out deadline whenever the requested instance was not in a running-instance frame — which includes a stopped instance, a terminated one, an id belonging to another account, and an id that does not exist. Gather gains ResponderGrace: once every ExpectedResponders node has answered, collection closes after a short grace window instead of running to the deadline. Core NATS gives a request only to the subscribers present when it was published, so an overlapping subscription replies alongside the first and one that arrives later never receives the request at all. Waiting past full coverage cannot find a reply that full coverage missed. The window is armed once and never extended, so a node replying repeatedly cannot hold the fan-out open. The full deadline is now paid only when a node stays silent, which is the case it was always meant to cover. The stopped and terminated bucket queries now run alongside the fan-out rather than after it, so their latency overlaps it instead of adding to it. They feed a shared instanceSettler that ends collection as soon as every requested id has been seen, skipping even the grace window. The timing oracle is unchanged. An instance the caller cannot see is filtered out of every source before the reply is sent, so it takes the same path as an id that does not exist: both answer NotFound after full responder coverage, and remain indistinguishable in time. * fix: stop parallel tests racing the terminate backoff seam terminateRetrySleep is a package global, and every test that needed it neutered swapped it and restored the old value from t.Cleanup. Those tests run in parallel, so two cleanups could write the seam at once — a real data race the detector caught once enough parallel tests shared the binary. Installed once in TestMain instead. Nothing in this package wants the real backoff, so there is no value in restoring it per test.	2026-09-03 13:25:19 +10:00

The daemon's health probe consults /readyz over that port on the two weak paths (single-host gate fallback and hosts running no meta node), falling back to the prior behavior when no admin port is configured or the listener refuses. * build: pin predastore to the release carrying Host.AdminPort The admin port field this branch reads is new in predastore, so CI could not compile against the pinned version: go.work hid the gap locally by resolving predastore to the checkout instead of the module.	2026-08-28 15:19:35 +10:00

Josh Siviour	f9c84919ef	feat: co-served GPU model bundles (vLLM + TEI) with family-aware reaper (#845) ... * feat: co-served GPU model bundles (catalog, lifecycle, embed/rerank routing) Serve the generative LLM, embedder and reranker as one co-resident GPU bundle: EMBEDDING/RERANK catalog modalities + co-serve group, bundle-aware admission (one GPU claim sized to summed member VRAM), single-flight one-VM launch with a member->port EndpointRecord, DynamicEndpointResolver member routing. Ochrevector embed/rerank/token-introspection resolve through the resolver (static single-endpoint map retired); rerank degrades to plain KNN on absent/failure. Public InvokeModel-embeddings and top-level Rerank deferred. * feat: co-serve vLLM+TEI bundle image with per-engine readiness Replace the single-model vllm-serve unit with a generic bedrock-serve@ systemd template driven by per-member BEDROCK_* env files, dispatching to vLLM or text-embeddings-router by engine and binding each member to its own port and weights device. TEI serves directly on its serve port; readiness probes each member on the route its engine answers (vLLM /v1/models, TEI /health) with the engine family carried end-to-end from the catalog. * fix: serve nomic embedder correctly in the co-serve bundle Bound embeddings requests to the TEI client batch limit so a large document's chunks are split across requests instead of 422ing. Serve nomic with explicit mean pooling, since the flat weights layout omits 1_Pooling/config.json and TEI would otherwise default to CLS. Add bge-base-en-v1.5 as a standalone alternative embedder. * fix: make the bedrock reaper family-aware and pin-safe A pinned endpoint is now exempt from terminate-and-relaunch on scrape failure, mirroring how it is already exempt from idle reclaim, so a transient unreachability can no longer tear down operator- or commitment-managed serving. A bundle with no generative vLLM member exposes no vLLM load metrics, so it is liveness-probed on /health and kept warm rather than scraped for idleness on a route it does not serve and reaped in a loop. * test: lock in co-serve group-member convergence to one VM * fix: pin self-host HF repo/revision in catalog and stop nested config flattening Carry HFRepo/HFRevision per self-host catalog entry; weights pull defaults --hf-repo and --revision from them so a bare pull cannot silently grab a regressed upstream main (the nomic v5 config.json duplicate-field break). Restrict fixed config filenames to the repo root so a nested config.json (sentence-transformers 1_Pooling/) is dropped instead of flattening onto the model config, and refuse any two source paths that collide at one dest key. * fix: let endpoint delete clear an account-scoped pinned record and report honestly A bare 'endpoint delete' resolved the Global key, which never held a pinned, account-scoped record, then printed 'torn down' over the idempotent no-op while the record survived. Add --account to the delete command so an operator can target the account 'endpoint list' shows, and return DeleteEndpointOutput.Removed so the CLI names a real teardown versus a lookup that found nothing and points at --account. A gone VM already tolerates NotFound, so a scoped delete clears a record whose instance was terminated out of band.	2026-08-20 16:08:55 +10:00

Josh Siviour	ea4e7e3fb0	fix: log every duration as integer milliseconds under a _ms key (#827) ... slog renders a bare time.Duration as an int64 nanosecond count and names the unit nowhere, so every duration field in the fleet read like "elapsed":135000000000. The repo idiom of .Round(time.Second) changed the value without changing the shape and truncated every sub-second measurement to zero. otelsetup.Millis converts a duration for logging under a snake_case key ending in _ms, and TestSlogDurationConvention type-checks ./spinifex/... and ./cmd/... to fail the build when a raw Duration reaches an slog call or a Millis value is logged under a key without the suffix. It found 55 sites across 34 files, well past the sites a grep for time.Since shows, because most durations come from a config field or a package constant. A handler-level ReplaceAttr would fix every site at once but can only emit d.String(), which Elasticsearch maps as a keyword and nothing can aggregate over.	2026-08-18 20:38:13 +10:00
Ben Duncan	225bf65a8e	feat: EBS export tunables, teardown reapers, fan-out and OVN fixes (#800) ... Merges `feat/ebs-export-tunables` (83 commits) into dev. The branch could not be rebase-merged because it carries five merges from dev, so it lands as a squash. ## What is in it - **EBS export tunables** and the nbdkit/viperblock export path they configure. - **Teardown reapers and backoff** for S3 buckets, load balancers, gateways, spot requests, certificates, endpoints, elastic IPs and network interfaces, so a dependent that keeps failing is backed off rather than retried hot. - **Retry and tolerance paths**: ECS IAM service init, ECR signing keys deleted between the list and the read, an unreadable signing key at awsgw startup, and an ECS instance-profile policy attach converging on a stale read. - **Key pair validation reads the material by name** instead of listing the account, closing the `InvalidKeyPair.NotFound` race that a single-replica LIST could produce. - **Concurrency and fan-out**: concurrent metadata document fetches, bounded metadata reads for describes, and the node-discovery timeout removed from every fan-out call. - **OVN correctness against the configured NB cluster**: the flows barrier, nexthop MAC binding, and stopping a compute node from running the package's standalone database. - **nats-js-watchdog can re-arm itself.** The escalation check ran above the probe loop while the only line that cleared the counter sat below it, so a latched watchdog could never observe a recovery. It now probes first and decides second, and says so once per latch rather than once per tick. - **CI**: 19 commits of nightly and build-pipeline work. ## Verification `make preflight` green locally. Build and Test, Integration Tests, Race Detection, and Lint and Security all green on `c2da0385`. ## Known red, not introduced here Two nightly cells fail on this branch and are pre-existing: - **cell-10** — a partial OVN IPsec enable leaves `NB_Global ipsec=true` asserted cluster-wide while two of three chassis failed their local reconcile, black-holing cross-chassis guest traffic for roughly 5.5 minutes while every health signal stays green. - **cell-19** — a total layer-3 egress blackhole below a correctly and promptly programmed NAT/EIP datapath, aggravated by a natuplink probe whose retry budget outlives the test's own wait, so it can never emit its FAIL verdict. Both are filed separately and should be weighed before a release is cut.	2026-08-17 17:42:27 -05:00

Ben Duncan	42d87d7a5a	feat: EBS export tunables, plus blob-read fault isolation for ebsmetadata (#799) ... * feat(ebs): make nbdkit thread count and per-volume read cache configurable Both numbers that set a volume's export concurrency and memory were hard-coded: nbdkit ran on its own default of 16 threads per connection because no -t was ever passed, and the read cache was a 128 MiB literal in the mount path. Neither could be changed without a recompile, and neither was visible in the logs or the process argv. Add default_threads and cache_size_mb to [nodes.<node>.ebs]. Defaults are unchanged, so a config that does not set them behaves exactly as before. CacheSizeMB is a pointer so an explicit 0 (cache disabled) stays distinguishable from an unset key, matching how ViperblockConfig treats its own toggles. -efi volumes stay uncached regardless. Validation is a range check only. Both are operator tunables applied per nbdkit process, and there is one of those per volume, so the host cost is the value times the volume count -- left for the operator to weigh rather than second-guessed here. * feat(security): arm the firewall by install path and sync the clock at firstboot The host firewall armed itself from a code default, so a curl-to-bash install onto an existing Debian or Ubuntu machine applied a default-deny INPUT policy seconds after bootstrap. Anything the operator was already running that is not on the allow list stopped accepting connections, with nothing logged and no config key to set beforehand — no template writes firewall_enabled, so every install fell through to the default. Arming is now the install path's decision. setup.sh takes --firewall=on|off and records it in /etc/spinifex/firewall/mode, defaulting on under ISO_BUILD and off everywhere else: the ISO is an appliance on hardware we define, a package install is a guest on a machine that was already doing something. firewall_enabled becomes a three-state *bool so "unset" and "explicitly false" stay distinguishable. Flipping the default to false instead would have torn down a working policy on every existing node, because false is an instruction to disable rather than an absence. Resolution is config, then mode file, then on, so a node installed before any of this keeps what it has. The ISO had the opposite problem. setup.sh is the only place that enables spinifex-firewall.service and it returns before that line under ISO_BUILD, with no systemd in the chroot to talk to. Nothing else enabled it, so after a reboot the ruleset — runtime state — was gone, and ReconcileFirewall short-circuited on an unchanged peer file and never put it back. An ISO node was firewalled until its first reboot and open permanently after. firstboot now enables the unit, and the reconcile checks the table is loaded rather than treating an unchanged peer set as proof the policy is applied. Two policy changes: 443 is held for the nginx TLS edge so that rollout needs no per-node firewall change, and the SSH port is read from sshd_config and its Include drop-ins instead of being hardcoded to 22 — a host on Port 2222 was allowed exactly one port that was not the one it uses, and ct state established kept the operator's session alive until they disconnected. 53 stays open on every node, now with a comment saying so: northstar serves public authoritative DNS. Clock: firstboot steps and waits for sync before spx admin init mints credentials, since a certificate issued against a wrong RTC carries a NotBefore that outlives the correction. Bounded to 60s and non-fatal so an air-gapped install still completes, and once is enough because rtcsync writes the corrected time back. A chrony drop-in replaces Debian's makestep 1 3, which stops stepping after three updates and then slews at roughly 7 seconds a day — a node that burned those before the network came up never visibly converged. * fix(security): let a node join a cluster whose firewall is already armed Expanding a single-node ISO install into a cluster could not succeed. Two independent blockers, both from the same root: the peer set is derived from converged cluster state, but the ports needed to reach convergence are gated on that same set. The formation port is peer-scoped, and a node dialling in to join is not a peer yet, so the handshake was dropped rather than refused and the joiner retried in silence until it timed out. It cannot simply move to the public rule: outside formation the same port carries the daemon cluster manager, whose /health and /local/* routes report node topology, service inventory and running instances unauthenticated. So it is opened for the formation window only, by spx admin init, and closed again on every exit path. The reconcile then deadlocked. Holding out for the full chassis list is right on a node with no policy loaded, but on one armed for a smaller cluster the ports a joining node needs in order to register its chassis are exactly the ones the stale set blocks, so the list can never complete. Widen the peer set on the tunnel set already loaded, and report the partial state so the caller retries sooner than the steady-state interval. A converged cluster whose Southbound DB is briefly unreadable is still left untouched. * docs(install): explain the firewall around cluster formation An ISO-installed server is a cluster of one, and its firewall admits internal cluster traffic only from members it recognises. Forming a cluster out of such servers therefore needs the firewall off first: step 3 of the multi-node guide has each server dial node 1's OVN database on the raft ports, and those are peer-scoped like everything else on the cluster plane. Neither guide said so, and the failure is a silent drop that looks like a network fault. Both guides now walk the off / form / on sequence, and the multi-node guide gains a reference section covering which ports are public, how arming differs between the ISO and the binary installer, and how to verify membership landed. Re-enable the boot-time unit whenever the daemon arms the policy. Disabling the firewall to form a cluster also disables that unit, so re-arming used to look complete while leaving the node bare after its next reboot. * fix: make the ISO-to-cluster conversion path work end to end Forming a cluster from four ISO-imaged servers surfaced a run of bugs that share a starting state CI never exercises: the ISO delivers an initialized, armed, running node, while the conversion path was written against the binary installer's unconfigured one. - install-node.sh never disarmed the host firewall, so nodes 2 and 3 could not dial the first node on the OVN raft ports and formation could not proceed. It now owns the whole lifecycle: disarm, form, re-arm, then verify the loaded policy against the expected peer set. - spx admin init left the admin access key and secret empty on the preserve path. The pair cannot be read back, and the IAM store is rebuilt by formation, so the empty strings reached every joiner's bootstrap.json and crash-looped awsgw. It is reissued instead, and IAM seeding now skips an empty admin block rather than taking the gateway down on every restart. - node-reset.sh left /etc/default/ovn-central behind. Raft membership lives in that file, not in the databases the reset deletes, so ovn-central recreated the database as a cluster member dialling a peer that had itself been wiped. - node-reset.sh also destroyed the installed firewall policy, which nothing regenerates. set-peers then failed on every attempt and the node stayed open permanently and silently. The arming mode is read before the wipe and the stage regenerated after it. - spinifex-firewall-apply rejected every verb when the policy file was missing, including disable. Turning the firewall off is the recovery path, so that left a node that could be neither armed nor disarmed. - viperblock exited 0 on a fatal startup error, so Restart=on-failure never fired. During formation its JetStream bucket has no leader yet, so the EBS provider died for good and every volume request failed with no responders. predastore and qemunbd had the same bug. - spx admin images import created image directories at 0700, so the first sudo import locked group members out of a tree deliberately made group-writable. Three of these hid behind checks that cannot succeed: ovn-sbctl show against a clustered database, and the OVN northbound and southbound waits in setup-ovn.sh. All three failed to stderr and let the run continue, so a check that could never pass was indistinguishable from one that was merely slow. The USB install guide claimed the ISO leaves Spinifex unconfigured and told the operator to run spx admin init. firstboot has always done that itself, so the guide now describes what the ISO actually produces and how to start using it. * fix: let spread placement launch across every node A spread placement group reserved four distinct nodes correctly and then failed the launch with ServerInternal, having started only two or three of them. The scheduler was never at fault; two faults downstream stopped the instances following the reservation. vpcd subscribes to vpc.add-nat with QueueSubscribe, which delivers one message at a time, and the handler holds its reply across the OVN flows barrier. The 45s caller deadline was sized against a single 30s barrier, which is right for one instance and wrong for the N a spread launch issues at once — the third request waits behind two full barriers and times out. That one subscription now overlaps its handlers under a bounded semaphore. Each barrier still syncs after its own write, so the guarantee is unchanged while N barriers collapse into roughly one. With the requests overlapping, every barrier still ran to its alarm. install-node.sh computed OVN_REMOTE after building the database nodes and gave it only to compute nodes, so the database nodes were configured without --ovn-remote. setup-ovn.sh writes ovn-northd's NB/SB connections from that list and skips it on the localhost default, and it already documents what follows: a northd dialling only its local member stops advancing nb_cfg once raft leadership moves, wedging ovn-nbctl --wait=hv. The list is knowable before any node is touched, so it is computed first and passed to the database nodes too. Nothing reported an OVN fault while this was happening. Every chassis was registered, ovn-controller and IPsec were up, and the raft cluster was healthy. The only signal was the barrier logging that it had overrun and was continuing without confirmation — which reads like slowness and was a permanent wedge. * feat: sweep block sizes in the disk benchmark and add an iperf3 network benchmark * fix: use iperf 2 with CSV output and report why a remote start failed * fix: stop pkill matching its own shell and verify the iperf server is listening * ci: run the predastore throughput benchmark at the end of the nightly * ci: boot the ISO in the nightly, single-node and three-node * ci: use the existing CI node password secret in the ISO cells * ci: report free space before the benchmark instead of failing inside warp * ci: keep the benchmarks and node disks off tmpfs * ci: export the work directories from RUNNER_TEMP rather than job env * ci: run the ISO and benchmark workloads from the nvme scratch area * perf: run guest NICs on vhost-net with multiqueue Guest-to-guest VPC throughput measured 1.68 Gbit/s single-stream against 21.8 Gbit/s host-to-host on the same underlay, and did not improve with more streams. QEMU's -netdev tap defaults vhost to off, so the whole datapath ran in the main loop thread in userspace: that thread sat at 59-65% CPU while all four vCPU threads idled at ~4%. Every tap netdev now carries vhost=on, and VPC ENIs additionally run multiqueue at min(vCPUs, 8) queue pairs. Multiqueue needs all three of the tap, the netdev and the device to agree, so TapNetDev and NetDevice derive the netdev options and the 2N+2 MSI-X vector count from one queue figure rather than leaving callers to keep them in step. The QMP hot-plug path takes the same options as cold boot, with a test comparing it against the rendered cold-boot strings so the two cannot drift. MMIO machines stay single-queue: they have no MSI-X. * ci: check out the sibling repos the go workspace needs in the ISO cells * ci: skip cell-21 workload cleanup when the workload never ran * ci: size the cell-21 node at 8 GiB and keep its serial log * ci: keep the cell-21 node diagnostics alongside the serial log * fix: let the daemon open /dev/vhost-net and delete multi_queue taps Enabling vhost=on broke instance launch two ways. DevicePolicy=closed gates the cgroup device list before capabilities are consulted, so QEMU's open of /dev/vhost-net returned EPERM despite CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE; add the device to the allow list and bump the unit version. Separately, `ip tuntap del` re-opens the device with TUNSETIFF and fails with EINVAL on a multi_queue tap, leaking it on every teardown; route deletion through `ip link del`, which is flag-agnostic. * perf: default guest NICs to a single queue Multiqueue measured a net loss. Spreading one flow across queue pairs reorders packets and TCP reads that as loss: a 4-vCPU guest fell from 1.76 to 1.50 Gbit/s, with cwnd collapsing on spurious retransmits. The host overlay funnels a node pair onto one softirq core, so the extra queues have no headroom to win back what the reordering costs. Keep the plumbing and its tests behind MultiqueueNICs so re-enabling is one line once that funnel is fixed. vhost-net stays on unconditionally; it moves the datapath off the QEMU main loop, measured at 60% of a core under load against 3% with it. * fix: raise the UDP receive buffer for predastore's QUIC transport Predastore carries blob, meta and raft over QUIC and quic-go asks for a 7MiB receive buffer. Left at the kernel default of 208KiB it silently dropped datagrams under load: the four-node cluster had shed 80k-125k each, which failed shard writes, put raft into repeated elections, and ultimately handed guests an I/O error that cost two of them their root filesystems. Adds a sysctl stage writing /etc/sysctl.d/99-spinifex-net.conf, so the setting lands in the ISO image and on every node push rather than living in a runbook. * ci: give the cell-21 workload an identity the node accepts * feat: tie the guest MTU and NIC multiqueue to ipsec_enabled ESP costs 34 bytes on top of geneve's 58, so a cluster running the overlay in plaintext can advertise 1442 instead of 1408 — worth roughly 10% of guest throughput. Derive it from network.ipsec_enabled rather than hardcoding the conservative figure. Multiqueue moves with the same flag, because its sign depends on it. Behind IPsec it costs ~12%: ESP has no L4 ports, so RSS funnels a node pair onto one core and extra queues only reorder packets, which TCP reads as loss. Without IPsec the sending host's single vhost thread saturates first and queues are worth +54%. IPsec on with multiqueue on is the worst of the four combinations, so it stops being a standalone knob and becomes vm.Deps.MultiqueueNICs. The reconciler only ever created a subnet's DHCPOptions row and never revisited it, so the create-time MTU stuck for the life of the subnet and this change would have applied to new subnets only. Worse in the other direction: turning IPsec back on would have left subnets advertising 1442 over ESP, which drops large segments with no ICMP to recover from. applySubnets now diffs and updates in place. reconcile.Config takes IPSecDisabled rather than IPSecEnabled so the zero value is the conservative MTU — a caller that forgets it is merely slower. * docs: add an install-time performance tuning guide Measured on the four-node cluster rather than inferred: the UDP receive buffer sysctl, what IPsec actually costs and why, the multiqueue sign flip, the overlay MTU budget, and the jumbo-frame check that must precede enabling it. A starter doc — several sections end in an open question rather than a recommendation. * ci: keep the cell-21 node alive for the workload step * ci: collect the cell-21 qemu log and widen its timeout * feat: derive the guest MTU from the fabric, and deepen the virtio NIC config The overlay overhead is passed on to the guest rather than hidden from it. Hiding it means running the fabric far enough above 1500 that a standard guest MTU fits in the headroom, which is what the large public clouds do — but they own the switches. On a fabric we do not control, the honest figure is the one the path can carry, and a jumbo underlay should reach the guest: 9000 gives 8942, or 8908 with IPsec. network.underlay_mtu is the lever; SubnetMTU spends it. Configured rather than probed, because a node's own NIC MTU says nothing about the switch between it and its peers. host_mtu sets VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU so a guest that never takes a DHCP lease — statically addressed, or IPv6-only — still learns the ceiling. rx/tx_queue_size raise the virtio ring from QEMU's default 256. That default is a packet-rate ceiling rather than a memory saving: a vCPU preempted for a fraction of a millisecond fills all 256 slots and the overflow is dropped. ethtool is the only way to read NIC offload, ring and channel state, so a node without it cannot be diagnosed for throughput at all. * ci: give the cell-21 workload its own guest key * fix: set the guest MTU on the tap, not just in the guest The tap was created and brought up without an MTU, so it stayed at the kernel default of 1500 while DHCP and host_mtu told the guest something else. Harmless at 1442; it silently blackholed every large frame on a jumbo underlay, with no ICMP back because the drop is at the first hop. TapSpec.MTU comes from the same guest overlay MTU the DHCP option and host_mtu already use, and is applied in the bring-up call so a size the fabric cannot carry fails the launch instead of degrading quietly. * fix: stop setting tx_queue_size, which QEMU caps at 256 for tap QEMU only honours a tx_queue_size above 256 for vhost-user and vhost-vdpa backends. On a tap it rejects the value outright rather than clamping it, so every launch died with "must be a power of 2 between 256 and 256" and the instance went straight to terminated. rx_queue_size is unaffected and stays at 1024. A test pins the absence of tx_queue_size across machine types and queue counts. * docs: lead the tuning guide with the overlay segmentation finding The guide's headline was a 5.4x that came almost entirely from turning IPsec off, and it treated MTU and the fabric as the main levers. The host reaches 92.6 Gbit/s at MTU 1500 on the same NIC, so the fabric is not the constraint and the encrypted default is not the thing to tune away from. Adds the host-versus-guest comparison up front, documents network.underlay_mtu, and makes the missing segmentation offload the first open question. * ci: stop deselected matrix cells failing in teardown * docs: quantify what disabling overlay IPsec is worth The guide described the trade without the numbers an operator needs to make it. Adds the measured 4.9x, notes that the MTU and multiqueue changes follow ipsec_enabled rather than being separate knobs, and records two transition hazards: a stale wide MTU on running guests, and RunInstances failing while the OVN flows barrier catches up with the new SAs. * ci: collect and retain the e2e benchmark and cluster logs Cells 21 and 22 both copied two paths that only ever exist on the nodes, so the benchmark JSON was never uploaded and cell-22 collected nothing at all. Both now gather what they actually produce, and keep it for 90 days. * fix: quieten spx by installing an explicit CLI logger default spx never set a process logger, so it inherited whatever a linked package left behind — until now a JSON handler at Info on stdout, interleaving library log records with command output and breaking piped use. Execute() claims the default before any command runs: text on stderr, LevelError, so commands report failures through their own stderr writes and libraries stay quiet. --verbose/-v raises to info and SPX_LOG_LEVEL sets an arbitrary level, the flag winning over the environment. Service subcommands still call initTelemetry, which replaces the handler outright. No root --debug flag: viperblock, qemunbd, nats and awsgw each define their own --debug with a service-specific meaning, and a root persistent flag would shadow inconsistently depending on the command. The guard test samples the handler at package-init time rather than inside the test, because tests in this package start services that install their own logger legitimately. * feat: private /admin/CreateAccount for self-service tenant signup Add POST /admin/<Method> to the AWS gateway: SigV4-signed, JSON in and JSON out, callable only by an IAM user in the super-admin account holding spinifex:<Method>. CreateAccount is the one method, so a signup form can provision a tenant without an operator shell. No new service, port, unit or certificate — it mounts inside the gateway's existing authenticated group and inherits its auth, throttling and tracing. Provisioning is resumable rather than transactional, which fits stores that have no transaction. Two CAS creates carry the correctness: the client token admits one in-flight attempt and makes a lost response replayable for 24 hours, and the name reservation makes duplicate account names impossible. Every step after the account exists is create-if-absent, so a retry with the same token finishes the job instead of failing. The CLI and the endpoint share one provisioning helper, which closes a gap on both at once: CreateAccount never checked names, so running `spx admin account create` twice produced two accounts that differed only by ID. The response waits for the account's default VPC over a new ec2.EnsureDefaultVpc request/reply, rather than trusting the existing fire-and-forget iam.account.created publish — credentials for an account that cannot launch anything are worse than a slower call. [signup] max_accounts bounds how many accounts may exist; absent means uncapped, which is what every cluster does today. * fix: stop the awsgw template hardcoding one deployment's console URL console_url shipped as https://console.spx3.com, so every fresh install — including an on-premise cluster that will never run signup — was configured to point new accounts at our console. It is the only deployment-specific domain in any template. It now ships empty, and the gateway warns when it provisions an account without one, since a blank sign-in link is otherwise visible only to the customer who receives it. Extract the remote client from the command body while here. The signing, request shape and error decoding are the part a Cloudflare Worker mirrors, and as a function they are testable against a TLS test server rather than only by hand against a live cluster. * refactor: drop console_url from signup and default max_accounts to 128 The gateway never read console_url — it passed the value straight through to the response, and the idempotency record froze it for 24 hours so a corrected typo still replayed stale. The client that made the request already knows where it wants to send the new tenant. max_accounts is now a pointer in the parsed config so an absent [signup] section takes the 128 default while an explicit 0 still means uncapped. * feat: run the predastore fault-injection harness as cell-24 Cell-23 asks how fast predastore is when every node is healthy; cell-24 asks whether it survives one that is not. It runs after cell-23 rather than beside it: both want a quiet single runner, and a benchmark sharing a machine with a fault injection run measures the wrong thing. The port offset keeps the two clear of each other even so, and the job clears stale nodes on entry and exit, since a run killed before its cleanup trap leaves one holding ports that fail the next run somewhere unrelated. * ci: keep the throughput benchmark's output with its results The run log only existed in the job log, so the artifact it uploaded could not be read without going back to the run that produced it. * ci: keep the fault-injection run log with its results events.txt carries the timeline and the FAIL line, but not the build output or anything Warp wrote before the harness took over, so a failed cell could only be read from the job log it was printed into. * fix: serve the cluster region to the console instead of hardcoding it The console hardcoded ap-southeast-2 as its SigV4 region in seven files, so on any other cluster the credential scope was wrong and the gateway rejected every signed request. The SPA is embedded in the binary, so a build-time value would pin one binary to one region. The UI server now serves GET /api/config with the region, no-store so a proxy fronting several clusters cannot serve one the other's region, and the SPA loads it once before render. The region comes from the serving node's config because awsgw pins signature verification to that same field. Reading the cluster-wide [aws] region instead would let a cluster whose two keys disagree pass review and still fail to authenticate. Also relabels the login card as Spinifex credentials, since the fields are not AWS ones, and hides the CA install banner unless the console is reached directly: behind a proxy with a publicly trusted certificate there is nothing for the cluster CA to fix. * fix: say once when the host firewall will not be maintained Both quiet outcomes of the reconcile — no cluster config, and the policy switched off — return nil without logging, so a node that never arms is indistinguishable in the journal from one that armed on its first pass. * test: arm the host firewall before asserting on its peer set Only the ISO install arms the policy; every other path writes off to the mode file, so the daemon disables the firewall and never writes a peer set. The test read that file as its baseline, which it could never have. It now switches the mode on for its own duration and puts it back, waits for the peer set the way install-node.sh does, and on failure reports the mode, the node count and what the daemon said rather than just the missing file. * test: move the console region test to the external cmd package It was in package cmd, which test-package-check rejects, so preflight failed on the branch. The hook follows the pattern already in export_test.go. * test: make the reboot EIP diagnostic capable of naming the drop The two ofproto/trace probes injected packets with no TTL, so OVN's router killed them at lr_in_ip_input and both traces ended early for a reason that had nothing to do with the failure under investigation. A keyword filter then stripped the table-match lines, hiding where each trace stopped. Traces now carry a TTL and are kept whole, the real datapath megaflows for the guest reply are dumped alongside them, and any drop matching the guest source is resolved from its OpenFlow cookie back to the Southbound logical flow that installed it. * fix: exempt an EIP instance from the subnet drop gate with allow, not reroute A subnet with no route of its own carries a priority-1100 drop policy, and an instance with an external IP is lifted above it by a priority-1200 policy. That policy rerouted to the pool gateway, which in distributed NAT is outside every logical router port subnet, because the gateway LRP is the link-local /30. The static default route survives that by naming an output port; a routing policy has no such field, so ovn-northd discarded all three of them and the drop gate below swallowed everything the instances sent. The effect was that every external IP answered inbound traffic and none of it came back: the SYN reached the guest, the guest replied, and the reply died in the router's policy stage. Guest-initiated egress was lost the same way. The policy only ever needed to lift the gate. The router's default route already points at the gateway, so allow leaves the routing decision intact and gives northd nothing to reject. * test: match the log the firewall quorum gate actually emits The assertion waited for "chassis encap addresses; not writing a partial peer set", which no code has ever logged. The reconcile reports a short chassis list as "OVN reports N of M chassis encap addresses" and the maintain loop carries that into its retry warning, so the wait could only ever time out. Arming the node in the previous commit got the test as far as this assertion for the first time, which is why it surfaced now. The failure also prints the journal tail and the same inputs the earlier wait reports. * fix: stop one unreadable volume document failing every volume listing A single volume document whose shards no longer reconstruct made DescribeVolumes, DescribeVolumeStatus and DescribeVolumesModifications fail for every account, because the listing returned the first fetch error rather than skipping the document. ListVolumes now skips a document it cannot read or decode and logs the skip, mirroring ListAMIs. Callers whose answer would be wrong rather than merely partial take ListVolumesStrict: the orphan scan and the snapshot in-use check both gate destructive work on a complete list. The tolerance covers fetch failures as well as decode failures. An object whose shards no longer join is as unusable as one whose bytes will not parse, and it was the fetch path that took the cluster down.	2026-08-15 14:22:49 -05:00
Josh Siviour	f647b635b2	feat: pull Ochre model weights from a hub into predastore (#798) ... * feat: pull Ochre model weights from a hub into predastore Add `spx admin ochre weights pull`: fetch a self-host model's weights from Hugging Face directly into predastore, producing a prefix `weights stage` consumes. Streams safetensors-only artefacts (plus config/tokenizer and the shard index), refusing pickle/.bin. Pins an immutable commit SHA, writes an ochre-pull.json manifest that stage records as SourceRevision, and aborts clean (removing any written object) on a gated or mid-stream failure. Token resolves from --hf-token, HF_TOKEN, or a stored platform credential; never logged. Also add `spx admin ochre credentials set` to store an encrypted provider credential from stdin, and SourceRevision on the weights KV record + list. * fix: stream hub downloads without a whole-request timeout http.Client.Timeout bounds the entire request including the body read, so a multi-GB safetensors shard was guillotined mid-download at 30s. Bound dial and response-header latency via the transport instead, leaving the body free to stream for as long as the server keeps sending.	2026-08-15 18:49:36 +10:00
