* feat(vm): direct-boot foundations + config/input extensions + image build pipeline
vm package (mulga-siv-62):
- Add KernelImage, Initrd, KernelCmdline, FwCfg/FwCfgEntry to vm.Config
- Emit -kernel/-initrd/-append/-fw_cfg args when fields set
- Relax drive invariant: accept kernel image in place of drives
- Add devices.go: IsMMIO predicate, NetDevice/BlkDevice/RngDevice helpers
- Refactor lifecycle.go + network_helpers.go call sites to use helpers
- shutdown.go: os.Remove fw_cfg tmpfiles after QEMU exits
- Add devices_test.go, microvm_test.go; extend vm_test.go
config/input extensions (mulga-siv-63):
- Add MicrovmConfig{ELBv2Enabled, ImagePath} to DaemonConfig
- ImagePath falls back to /usr/share/spinifex/microvm when empty
- Add commented [microvm] section to spinifex.toml template
- Add DirectBoot bool + NICs []NICConfig to SystemInstanceInput
image build pipeline (mulga-siv-64):
- scripts/build-microvm-image.sh: Alpine chroot build producing vmlinuz + initramfs.cpio.gz
- build/microvm/init.sh: fw_cfg-driven PID 1 init (mounts, modprobe, NIC config, lb-agent-env, ca-cert)
- build/microvm/inittab: BusyBox init with lb-agent respawn
- make build-microvm-image target
- setup.sh: install microvm/* to /usr/share/spinifex/microvm/

* feat(daemon): direct-boot launch path for microvm system instances
When SystemInstanceInput.DirectBoot=true:
- Skip GetAMIConfig and GenerateVolumes
- Build vm.Config directly (no buildBaseVMConfig, no PCIe root ports)
- MachineType=microvm,x-option-roms=off,pic=off,pit=off,rtc=on,acpi=on,isa-serial=on
- Resolve kernel/initrd from Microvm.ImagePath config field
- Serialise NICs to three fw_cfg tmpfiles (netcfg, lb-agent-env, ca-cert)
- Validate exactly one NICConfig.IsDefault=true before writing netcfg blob
- Shutdown path cleans up tmpfiles via existing Config.FwCfg iteration
PC-machine path (DirectBoot=false) unchanged.
Closes mulga-siv-65
* feat(elbv2): wire microvm.elbv2_enabled flag into ELBv2 service
When ELBv2Enabled=true:
- Drop lbVMUserData cloud-config; emit KEY=value LBAgentEnv blob instead
- Set SystemInstanceInput.DirectBoot=true; omit ImageID
- Populate NICs []NICConfig (index 0=primary ENI IsDefault, 1=mgmt, 2+=extra ENIs)
- Validate exactly one IsDefault NIC at service layer
When ELBv2Enabled=false: existing PC-machine path unchanged.
Adds buildLBAgentEnv, buildMicrovmNICs, subnetCIDRForIP, subnetGatewayIP helpers.
Tests in arn_test.go cover both flag-on and flag-off paths.
Closes mulga-siv-66
* test(daemon,vm): add unit tests for direct-boot helpers to meet diff coverage threshold
* feat(daemon): Phase 1 perf instrumentation + e2e runner microvm flag
- Log t1→t2 boot timing via slog on the direct-boot path
- measureQEMURSSMiB helper reads /proc/<pid>/status (tested)
- Gate constants: phase1BootGateMs=500, phase1RSSGateMiB=25
- run-lb-e2e.sh: --microvm flag, dual-path CI annotation, density test note
Closes mulga-siv-67
* fix(build): remove busybox-initscripts — not in Alpine 3.20, not needed
* fix(microvm): end-to-end fixes for direct-boot LB path
Serial output was silent (x-option-roms=off suppresses BIOS serial init);
fixed by removing it from the machine string and using -serial chardev:console0
to attach to the machine-created ISA serial device instead of adding a
duplicate isa-serial device (which would create ttyS1 while kernel uses ttyS0).
virtio-net interfaces were invisible to the kernel because QEMU's
auto-kernel-cmdline does not append virtio_mmio.device= params when -append
is used. Fixed by generating explicit virtio_mmio.device=0x200@0xfebNNNNN:N
params for each NIC in KernelCmdline, and modprobing virtio_mmio + virtio_net
in init.sh.
sys.micro bumped to 512 MiB — 128 MiB caused kernel OOM during initramfs
decompression (~68 MiB uncompressed).
BusyBox init ::respawn: entries do not source or export env files; fixed
inittab to use set -a; . /etc/conf.d/lb-agent; set +a before exec.
wireLBAgentConfig was documented as reading the CA cert but never set
elbv2Service.CACert; lb-agent TLS handshakes to AWSGW failed with
x509: certificate signed by unknown authority. Fixed by reading
d.config.NATS.CACert (same local CA that signs the AWSGW server cert)
and assigning to elbv2Service.CACert so writeFwCfgBlobs writes a
non-empty cacert blob into fw_cfg.
Adds vm_test TestExecute_MicrovmFileChardev and updates lifecycle_test
to assert SerialSocket is intentionally empty on direct-boot VMs.
* fix(build): auto-detect docker/podman when apk unavailable for microvm image build
* fix(build): create /dev/console and /dev/null as proper device nodes in initramfs
tar extraction without root silently demotes device files to 0-byte regular
files (mknod requires CAP_MKNOD). The kernel opens /dev/console when wiring
init's stdio to the serial console; a regular file there causes all init output
to be silently discarded to RAM — the VM appears stuck at 'Run /init as init
process' with no subsequent console output and lb-agent never heartbeats.
Fix: after rootfs population, wipe /dev and recreate console (c 5 1) and
null (c 1 3) via sudo mknod. devtmpfs provides all other devices at runtime
once init.sh mounts it.
* fix(microvm): fix mgmt NIC routing for all LB schemes
Two bugs prevented lb-agent from reaching the AWSGW via the mgmt interface:
1. RouteDst/RouteVia swapped — resolveMgmtRoute returns (gateway, target) but
buildMicrovmNICs assigned them as (Dst=gateway, Via=target), producing
'ip route add 10.15.8.1 via 192.168.1.33' instead of the correct
'ip route add 192.168.1.33 via 10.15.8.1'.
2. NIC[1] MAC and CIDR never filled — the daemon allocates mgmt IP/MAC
after buildMicrovmNICs returns, but didn't inject them into input.NICs[1]
before calling writeFwCfgBlobs, leaving NIC1_MAC= empty in the netcfg
blob and skipping interface setup in init.sh entirely.
Also extends mgmt routing to internet-facing scheme in the microvm path:
VPC SNAT is not reliable across all VPC topologies for control-plane
heartbeats; mgmt is always a direct L2 path to the host.
* feat(microvm): Phase 2 kernel stripping + boot optimisation
- cpu: switch to host,-pmu (disable PMU — not needed in microvm guest)
- machine type: make isa-serial configurable via microvm.isa_serial config
field; default true (on) preserves console log path
- build: strip unused kernel modules (USB, IDE, ATA, GPU, media, input,
HID, bluetooth, staging, sound, wireless) from initramfs before cpio
- build: add Phase 2 artifact size gate — fail if vmlinuz + initramfs.cpio.gz
exceeds MICROVM_ARTIFACT_MAX_MiB (default 50 MiB); override via env var
during development
- perf: add phase2BootGateMs=300 and phase2ArtifactGateMiB=50 constants
with canary tests to catch unintentional gate changes
- tests: cover buildMicrovmNICs nil-VPC and extra-ENI paths
- tests: cover microvmMachineType nil/true/false branches
* fix(build): use find-based virtio+fw_cfg module keep-list in initramfs strip
The directory-only keep-list (drivers/virtio, drivers/firmware) missed
virtio_net.ko which lives in drivers/net/, virtio_blk in drivers/block/,
and virtio-rng in drivers/char/hw_random/. Switch to find-based approach:
collect all virtio*.ko* and *fw_cfg*.ko* regardless of subdirectory, then
restore them into their original relative paths under kernel/.
Artifacts now: 42 MiB (vmlinuz 11 MiB + initramfs 31 MiB), gate passes.
* fix(build): keep failover modules in initramfs strip
virtio_net depends on net_failover/failover for live-migration support.
Stripping them left virtio_net with unresolved symbols
(net_failover_create/destroy), so the module failed to load and the
guest came up with only lo. init.sh then skipped every NIC ("no
interface found for MAC ..."), leaving lb-agent with no network path
to AWSGW and the LB stuck in provisioning.
Add *failover*.ko* to the keep-list. Image size unchanged at 42 MiB
(under the 50 MiB Phase 2 gate). ELBv2 e2e now reaches active and
2/2 targets healthy for both ALB and NLB internal LBs.
* fix(daemon): restore slog default after viperblock.New mutates it
viperblock.New unconditionally calls vb.SetDebug, which calls
slog.SetDefault with a TextHandler at LevelError — globally silencing
every slog.Info and slog.Warn in the caller process for the rest of
its life. Discovered while validating microvm Phase 2 (mulga-siv-68):
the daemon stopped emitting Info logs the moment the first customer
VM with volumes launched, hiding direct-boot timing,
LaunchSystemInstance completed, and CreateLoadBalancer completed
lines that we need for boot-time tuning.
Workaround in newViperblock: re-install an Info-level TextHandler on
os.Stderr after each viperblock.New call. Also drop the three explicit
vb.SetDebug(false) calls in prepareRootVolume / prepareEFIVolume /
prepareCloudInitVolume — they were no-ops (viperblock.New already
runs SetDebug internally) and each one re-triggered the global
mutation we are trying to undo.
Proper fix is in viperblock itself — tracked as mulga-siv-70: SetDebug
should not call slog.SetDefault. Until then, this restore call is the
shortest path to getting the daemon's observability back so we can
measure t1_to_t2_ms and tune Phase 2.
Preflight note: golangci-lint not available on this dev host, so the
project preflight target cannot run end-to-end. Verified with
go vet ./spinifex/handlers/ec2/instance/... (clean) and
go test ./spinifex/handlers/ec2/instance/... (pass).
* perf(microvm): hit Phase 2 boot/memory gates
t1→t2 hypervisor: 3224 ms → 264 ms (12×). 128 MiB guest now boots
cleanly without OOM, reverting the temporary 512 MiB bump.
Root causes:
1. build-microvm-image.sh staged the entire chroot into the cpio
without dropping /boot, embedding a duplicate vmlinuz, Alpine's
stock initramfs-virt, System.map, and a "boot → ." symlink loop
(~25 MiB). Decompression peak exceeded 128 MiB. Strip /boot after
the kernel is copied out, before the cpio. Initramfs drops from
31 MiB → 11 MiB (53 MiB → 28 MiB uncompressed); total artifact
42 MiB → 22 MiB.
2. vm/lifecycle.go burned 3 s of fixed sleep on every direct-boot
launch: 2 s nbdkit pre-exec wait (no nbdkit on direct-boot) and
1 s post-fork settle (QEMU binds QMP within ~10 ms when there is
no firmware, ROM, or block layer). Both extracted to
directBoot-aware helpers — nbdkitPreExecWait collapses to 0, and
qemuStartSettleWait to 50 ms.
3. KernelCmdline only carried `console=ttyS0 virtio_mmio.device=…`.
Added boot-time perf flags: quiet loglevel=3 (silence printk over
115200-baud isa-serial), mitigations=off (KVM guest on trusted
host, single-tenant LB workload), tsc=reliable, no_timer_check,
reboot=t, i8042.{nopnp,noaux,nokbd} (microvm has no PS/2).
4. init.sh dropped modprobe virtio_mmio (built-in:
CONFIG_VIRTIO_MMIO=y) and tightened polling: fw_cfg/iface waits go
from 10 × 200 ms (up to 2 s) to 5 × 20 ms (up to 100 ms).
Phase 2 gates:
- t1→t2 ≤ 300 ms ✅ 264 ms / 281 ms
- artifact ≤ 50 MiB ✅ 22 MiB (gate already in build script)
- ELBv2 e2e green ✅ 32/33 (pre-existing client-VM failure,
unrelated to microvm path)
* build(microvm): wire build into deploy + distro + release pipeline
Adds install-microvm Makefile target (with grouped-target staleness
detection on vmlinuz/initramfs.cpio.gz), wires it into dev-install.sh
and reset-dev-env.sh, makes 'make deploy' reinstall artifacts when
present, and makes 'make distro-amd64' stage build/microvm/* into the
release tarball staging dir. arm64 distro stays unchanged (no aarch64
microvm artifact yet — Phase 4).
Release workflow gains a setup-go step and a 'make build-microvm-image'
step before 'make distro-amd64' on the amd64 runner so the resulting
tarball includes the kernel + initramfs without a manual copy.
Precursor for the Phase 3 PC-machine LB removal (mulga-siv-69).
Closes mulga-siv-71.
* build(ansible): include microvm artifacts in build role tarball
Adds a build-microvm-image task to the ansible build role and stages
build/microvm/* into the role's release tarball so the install role's
setup.sh run picks them up via INSTALL_SPINIFEX_TARBALL. Skipped
gracefully when the build script is absent (older branches without
direct-boot LB wiring).
* feat(config): enable microvm direct-boot LB path by default
Uncomments the [nodes.<node>.daemon.microvm] section in the generated
spinifex.toml template and sets elbv2_enabled = true so all new
clusters bring up ELBv2 LBs via the direct-boot microvm path. Operators
can opt back to the legacy PC-machine path by flipping the flag to
false in the rendered config.
Required for end-to-end CI on this branch to exercise the direct-boot
path. Existing clusters' configs are unchanged (the template only
affects fresh 'spx admin init' renders).
* fix(microvm): bootstrap apk.static when no host rootfs tool exists
Self-hosted CI runners and the GitHub-hosted ubuntu-24.04 image often
have none of apk, docker, or podman installed. apk-tools is not in the
Debian 13 (trixie) repositories. Without one of these the rootfs build
fails up front with 'no rootfs build tool available'.
When all three are absent, fetch apk-tools-static from the configured
Alpine mirror, extract it to a tempdir, and prepend it to PATH so the
existing native-apk strategy below picks it up transparently. Requires
only curl + tar, both of which are present on every CI runner that can
already check out source.
No-op when apk, docker, or podman is already present.
Unblocks https://github.com/mulgadc/spinifex/actions/runs/25988830244
* revert: drop apk.static bootstrap in build-microvm-image
Reverts 0bd76b7. Self-hosted runners will get docker.io installed
out of band; existing Strategy 2 (docker run alpine:3.20) handles
the rootfs build without host sudo or unsigned package install.
* docs(workbook): drop lb-alpine import for microvm direct-boot LB
LBs now launch via direct-boot QEMU microvm using kernel + initramfs
bundled at /usr/share/spinifex/microvm/, so the legacy lb-alpine system
AMI import is no longer required.
* fix(daemon): own tap devices by daemon user so QEMU can attach without CAP_NET_ADMIN
When the daemon runs non-root (production: User=spinifex-daemon), child
QEMU processes inherit that uid but lack CAP_NET_ADMIN. The kernel's tun
attach check then requires the tap owner uid to match the caller's euid.
Without the `user` flag, `ip tuntap add` defaults to root:root and qemu's
TUNSETIFF fails with EPERM ("could not configure /dev/net/tun: Operation
not permitted").
Surfaced by the e2e-nightly cell-17 microvm LB launch on the ci-pseudo
runner where the kernel enforces strictly; legacy EC2 launches on
ci-single runners happened to attach successfully despite the same code
path. Adding `user $current group $gid` to `ip tuntap add` ensures the
tap is owned by whatever uid the daemon (and its qemu children) run as.
Root daemons skip the flag — they have CAP_NET_ADMIN ambient.
* fix(e2e): redirect lb probe chatter to stderr so stalls are visible
test_http_from / test_tcp_from echoed progress to stdout, which the
callers captured into *_OK vars via $(...). Result: 6+ minute retry
loops ran silently in CI, and the "$ok" comparison never matched
"true" because the captured value contained the full multi-line
chatter. Reachability pass/fail counters were also lost in the
subshell.
Redirect helper output to stderr, leave only the true/false flag on
stdout, and move pass/fail to the caller so they actually count.
* fix(microvm): don't /32 AdvertiseIP via mgmt for internet-facing single-node
buildMicrovmNICs overrode resolveMgmtRoute's deliberate empty return
for the single-node internet-facing case by falling back to
(MgmtBridgeIP, AdvertiseIP). That installed a /32 route to AdvertiseIP
via the mgmt NIC inside the LB microvm. On single-node where the
AWSGW host IP equals the WAN client IP, the /32 also catches reply
traffic for inbound HTTP/TCP to the LB's floating IP — replies leave
via the mgmt NIC with src=data-NIC IP, the host kernel drops the
asymmetric flow, and same-chassis ingress hangs.
resolveMgmtRoute already encodes the correct policy:
- multi-node any scheme → explicit MgmtRoute{Gateway,Target}
- single-node internal → fallback to (MgmtBridgeIP, AdvertiseIP)
- single-node internet-facing → empty (reach AWSGW via VPC SNAT)
Honor it. Matches the legacy lbVMUserData path, whose own comment
flagged the stolen-WAN-return-path symptom this introduced.
Test covers all three branches.
* feat(ansible): dev-deploy playbook for in-place artifact swap
Fills the gap between ansible-dev-install (skips when already installed)
and ansible-dev-reset (full teardown + reinstall + smoketest). Mirrors
Makefile `deploy` target: rebuild + replace binaries and microvm
artifacts on a running node, restart spinifex.target, wait for awsgw.
Skips setup.sh (no user/dir/systemd-unit changes) and smoketest so
iteration is fast. Use ansible-dev-reset when changing systemd units,
helper scripts, logrotate, or setup.sh itself.
Adds:
- roles/deploy/tasks/main.yml — install spx + nbdkit plugin + microvm
artifacts, with plugindir auto-detection via `nbdkit --dump-config`.
- playbooks/dev-deploy.yml — chains build + deploy roles.
- Makefile ansible-dev-deploy target.
- README playbook table + "when to use which" guidance.
* chore(microvm): remove legacy LB Alpine image build pipeline
Phase 3 microvm removal — strip the PC-machine LB image build
artifacts that direct-boot no longer needs. The microvm initramfs
already carries lb-agent + HAProxy via build-microvm-image, so the
lb.conf manifest, lb-setup.sh chroot script, build-lb-image target,
dev-install / reset-dev-env import steps, and ansible LB-image tasks
all become dead.
build-system-image stays — other manifests (e.g. GPU images) still
use it.
* refactor(microvm): remove legacy PC-machine LB boot path
Phase 3 — direct-boot becomes the only ELBv2 LB launch path.
- Drop SystemInstanceInput.DirectBoot / ImageID / UserData (every LB
caller set DirectBoot=true; legacy cloud-init userdata is gone).
- Drop ELBv2ServiceImpl.lbVMUserData, systemAMI* fields, SetSystemAMIFunc,
getSystemAMI, and the lazy-AMI wiring in daemon.startCluster.
- Collapse CreateLoadBalancer to a single direct-boot launch input.
- Collapse daemon.LaunchSystemInstance: drop AMI validation, ImageID
on RunInstancesInput, UserData base64 encode, GenerateVolumes branch.
buildDirectBootConfig hardcodes /usr/share/spinifex/microvm and
isa-serial=on (microvmMachineType no longer takes a flag).
- Drop MicrovmConfig from config.DaemonConfig and the
[daemon.microvm] section from the spinifex.toml template.
- Prune dead tests (lbVMUserData_*, PCMachine_Unchanged, AMI resolver
paths) and refresh stale comments that still mentioned lbVMUserData.
ARM hosts have no LB launch path until Phase 4 adds direct-boot on
virt — CreateLoadBalancer on aarch64 fails naturally at QEMU exec.
* docs: drop lb-alpine catalog entry from cluster setup guide
LB system instances no longer use an AMI — direct-boot microvm
artifacts ship in the spinifex package.
* feat(ui): remove LB image import banner + LB-AMI gating
Direct-boot microvm artifacts ship in the spinifex package, so the
LB system AMI no longer exists — the "Load balancer image not imported"
banner and the Create-button disable on the LB list / wizard pages
can never fire. Strip:
- lb-image-missing-banner.tsx component
- hasLbImage / isLbImage / LB_IMAGE_NAME / LB_MANAGED_BY_VALUE from
system-managed.ts (isSystemManagedImage stays — still used by the
EC2 Images pages to hide system AMIs)
- Banner gating + ec2ImagesQueryOptions imports from the LB list and
wizard pages
- The corresponding tests that asserted the banner appears
* revert: restore lb.conf + lb-setup.sh for mulga install pipeline
Phase 3 microvm removal (commit 6313d74) deleted these too early — the
mulga install/iso artifact builders (scripts/tofu-cluster/build-install
-artifacts.sh, scripts/tofu-iso/build-iso-artifacts.sh) still invoke
scripts/build-system-image.sh scripts/images/lb.conf, breaking e2e with
"ERROR: Manifest not found: scripts/images/lb.conf".
Restore both files verbatim so the legacy pipeline keeps building until
the mulga-side migration to microvm-only artifacts lands post-merge.
* feat: add GPU discovery package (mulga-992)
Adds spinifex/gpu package with sysfs-based GPU enumeration, IOMMU group
member lookup, and a PCI device ID model table. Vendor-specific enrichment
via nvidia-smi is attempted opportunistically and falls back to the built-in
table when unavailable. All discovery and IOMMU logic is covered by unit tests
using mock sysfs trees.
* feat: add VFIO bind/unbind and GPU pool manager (mulga-993)
Adds gpu.BindVFIO/UnbindVFIO using sysfs driver_override for per-device
driver switching, and gpu.Manager which owns the claim/release lifecycle
for the GPU pool including full IOMMU group binding, rollback on partial
failure, and marking entries unavailable when rebind fails after VM
termination.
* feat: add G5 instance type generator with GPU model support (mulga-994)
- Add GPUModel type, NVIDIAa10g constant, and GPUModelForVendorDevice lookup
- Add generateGPUTypes to emit g5.* types with GpuInfo populated
- Add IsGPUType helper for consumers filtering GPU-capable types
- Update DetectAndGenerate to accept gpuModels []GPUModel parameter
* feat: integrate GPU passthrough into daemon lifecycle (mulga-995)
- Add gpu_passthrough config flag; discover GPUs and build manager at startup
- Gate g5 instance types on GPU pool availability via canAllocateCount
- Claim GPU (VFIO bind) in LaunchInstance; inject vfio-pci QEMU device
- Release GPU (VFIO unbind, rebind to host driver) in stopInstance
- Re-claim GPU on daemon restart when QEMU process is still alive
- Add UseUEFI / OVMF support for x86_64 VMs (optional, falls back to SeaBIOS)
- Fix Claim to use stored OriginalDriver when device is already vfio-pci bound
* feat: add GPU fields to NodeStatus and spx top nodes (mulga-996)
- Add TotalGPUs/AllocGPUs to NodeStatusResponse (zero on non-GPU nodes)
- Populate from gpuManager in handleNodeStatus
- Show GPU (used/total) column in spx top nodes; "-" when no GPUs present
* feat: Ubuntu 24.04 GPU AMI build pipeline (mulga-997)
Extends build-system-image.sh to support Ubuntu alongside Alpine.
Key differences handled: partition table (parted resizepart p1),
bind mounts for DKMS (/proc /sys /dev), apt vs apk, systemctl vs
rc-update. DISTRO defaults to "alpine" for backward compatibility.
Adds ubuntu-gpu.conf manifest and ubuntu-gpu-setup.sh chroot script
that installs nvidia-headless-550-server with DKMS pre-built against
a pinned linux-image-generic kernel, blacklists nouveau, and prevents
unattended-upgrades from invalidating the pre-built module.
* Fixed GPU passthrough and added test script
* feat: always-probe GPU at startup, surface capability in NodeStatusResponse
- Add gpuProbeResult struct and probeGPU() which runs at daemon startup
regardless of gpu_passthrough config. Checks sysfs for GPUs, IOMMU
groups, and vfio_pci module presence.
- Store gpuProbe on Daemon struct; split NewDaemon into probe (always)
and activate (opt-in) phases.
- Populate GPUCapable, GPUPassthrough, GPUModels on NodeStatusResponse
so operators can see hardware state before enabling passthrough.
- Update 'spx top' GPU column: '-' = no hardware, '0/N*' = capable but
passthrough not active, 'used/total' = passthrough active.
* feat: SIGHUP hot-reload for GPU passthrough config (mulga-1001)
- Export GenerateGPUTypes for use by the reload path
- Add ResourceManager.reloadGPUTypes: mutates instanceTypes map in-place
(preserves references held by instanceService) and updates NATS
subscriptions without full daemon restart
- Separate SIGHUP from SIGTERM/SIGINT: setupReload() listens for SIGHUP
in a context-aware loop; setupShutdown no longer intercepts SIGHUP
- Add reloadConfig() + applyGPUConfig(): re-reads spinifex.toml on signal,
handles false→true (re-probe + activate) and true→false (refuse if
instances running, otherwise deactivate) transitions
* feat: spx admin gpu status/enable/disable commands (mulga-1000)
- admin.SetGPUPassthrough: Go implementation of the idempotent TOML write
(replaces the inline Python heredoc in spx-test-gpu.sh)
- spx admin gpu status: shows GPU hardware, IOMMU/vfio state, passthrough
activation, and advertised g5 instance types via NATS NodeStatusResponse
- spx admin gpu enable: checks prerequisites, writes TOML, sends SIGHUP,
polls until daemon confirms GPUPassthrough=true
- spx admin gpu disable: refuses while GPU instances are running, otherwise
writes TOML, sends SIGHUP, polls until confirmed
- spx-test-gpu.sh: replace Python TOML heredoc with spx admin gpu enable
* fixed admin
* fix: filter Intel iGPU from passthrough pool, use lspci for consumer GPU names
Discover() now skips non-NVIDIA/AMD vendors so Intel iGPUs never enter
the passthrough pool. enrichFromLspci() uses the system PCI ID database
via lspci -vmm to populate the model name for any card not in the
hardcoded table, without needing nvidia-smi or driver tools.
* fix: grant CAP_SYS_ADMIN and vfio device access to spinifex-daemon
GPU passthrough requires writing to /sys/bus/pci/drivers/vfio-pci/unbind
on instance stop. The kernel gates this on CAP_SYS_ADMIN regardless of
file permissions. QEMU subprocesses also need char-vfio rw access to
open /dev/vfio/N for the passed-through device.

* feat: re-wire GPU claim and device injection after vm.Manager refactor
GPU passthrough claim (VFIO bind) and QEMU device injection were lost
when dev's vm.Manager refactor (#185/#186) moved StartInstance/
CreateQMPClient into vm/lifecycle.go. Re-add both in their correct
new homes:
- daemon_handlers_instance.go: claim GPU before vmMgr.Run() in both
RunInstances and StartStoppedInstance handlers; release on failure
- vm/lifecycle.go startQEMU(): inject vfio-pci device with x-vga flag
derived from instance.GPUXVGAEnabled when GPUPCIAddress is set

bc33c72 added the mask but placed it after the SKIP_APT early-return.
CI bootstrap runs setup.sh with INSTALL_SPINIFEX_SKIP_APT=1 against
runners that already have dhcpcd-base, so the mask never ran. On
Debian-13 the auto-enabled dhcpcd.service kept binding br-wan and
racing vpcd's nclient4, reproducing the mulga-siv-32 DORA timeout
on the public-IP allocation path. Lift the disable+mask out of the
apt branch so it runs unconditionally.
* preflight tweak
* fix: pin gateway LRP to link-local, end intra-cluster ARP collision
Every VPC's IGW gateway-LRP claimed pool.GatewayIP || pool.RangeStart on
attach. Multi-VPC clusters all GARP'd the same .160 with three different
deterministic MACs on the shared br-ext localnet, flapping the upstream
ARP cache and dropping 100% of inbound traffic to dnat_and_snat external
IPs (mulga-siv-26).
handleIGWAttach and reconcileIGW now unconditionally set the gateway
router port to 169.254.0.1/30. The default route's OutputPort already
pins the LRP, so the WAN nexthop need not be on-subnet. Pool IPs stay
allocated only for per-VM dnat_and_snat external addresses, which are
unique by construction.
Self-heal: RetrofitAllGatewayPortNetworks runs at startup and rewrites
stale Networks in place via the new UpdateLogicalRouterPort path. Needed
because Reconcile gates IGW work on "ext switch missing", so a cluster
shipped with the buggy CIDR never re-enters reconcileIGW.
Regression guards: TestTopologyHandler_IGWAttach_MultiVPC_NoIPCollision
and TestReconcileIGW_RewritesStaleGatewayPortNetworks. Existing tests
updated to assert link-local and OutputPort=&gwPortName. Log field
gateway_ip renamed to lrp_network to signal the semantic shift.
* fix: rewrite utils.HashMAC to SHA-256 / 46-bit output
The old 24-bit rolling hash with literal class prefix had birthday-paradox
collision probability of 1% at ~580 ids and 50% at 4096 — well within the
range of a single deployment's resource population (LRPs, ENIs, dev/mgmt
NICs). On a shared L2 segment, two clusters could trivially produce
duplicate MACs, breaking neighbour discovery and DHCP.
Switch HashMAC to SHA-256 across the entire input, taking the low 6 bytes
and forcing the IEEE 802 reserved bits (bit0=0 unicast, bit1=1 LAA) on the
first octet. Output entropy goes from 24 bits to 46 bits — 1% collision
boundary moves from ~580 to ~1.2M ids.
Drop the redundant prefix arg: it was no longer the literal output prefix
under the new scheme, just folded into the hash input. Class disambiguation
moves to the caller, where it's explicit. Three of four callers had nothing
to disambiguate (eni-, subnet-, gw-vpc- ids are already unique); dev and
mgmt NICs share instance.ID and now compose "dev:" / "mgmt:" tags.
Also consolidate vpcd.generateMAC, which was a local duplicate of the
broken algorithm rather than a HashMAC wrapper, into a HashMAC delegation.

* fix: pin HashMAC first octet to 0x02
Previous impl forced only the IEEE 802 reserved bits (bit0=0 unicast,
bit1=1 LAA) on the first octet, leaving the upper 6 bits hash-derived.
Technically valid LAA unicast, but produced MACs like 4a:.. and fe:..
that visually encroach on vendor OUI space and tripped CI/ops checks
expecting all generated MACs to start with 02:.
Pin byte 0 to literal 0x02; hash bytes 1-5 from sha256[0:5]. Output
entropy drops from 46 to 40 bits — birthday-paradox 1% collision at
~150k ids, still 256x the old 24-bit bound (~580).
* chore(e2e): dump cross-chassis OVN state on guest SSH failure
Adds chassis registrations, port_binding claims, gateway_chassis rows,
ovs-vsctl topology, Geneve tunnel state, and br-int tunnel flows to
dump_guest_ssh_diagnostics so we can pinpoint where the cross-chassis
dataplane stalls (cr-gw chassis vs remote chassis with the VM bound).
* fix: gate vpcd startup reconcile behind NATS KV leader election
N vpcds in a multi-node cluster all hit Get-then-Create on Logical_Router
with no atomicity, producing duplicate rows that ovn-nbctl rejects with
"Multiple logical routers named '...'. Use a UUID."
Add AcquireReconcileLeader using NATS KV CAS (kv.Create on a single key
in spinifex-vpcd-reconcile bucket). Only the elected vpcd runs Reconcile,
ReconcileFromKV, and the two retrofit passes — others Subscribe and rely
on the vpcd-workers queue group for runtime events. MaxAge=60s on the
bucket caps recovery time when a leader crashes mid-reconcile.
Falls through (elected=true) when KV is unavailable so first-boot does
not deadlock on a missing JetStream.

* fix(elbv2): force mgmt host route for internal-scheme LBs (mulga-siv-30)
Single-node CI e2e Phase 3b ALB internal hangs in 'provisioning' for 270s
because the lb-agent inside the ALB VM has no return path to AWSGW.
The gateway-URL decision tree in daemon.wireLBAgentConfig picks advertiseIP
for single-node and deliberately skips adding the /32 mgmt host route — the
WAN-return-path concern in the comment is real but applies only to
internet-facing LBs, which have an EIP and an OVN dnat_and_snat pair that
gives reply traffic a way home. Internal LBs have no EIP / no SNAT, so when
the agent dials advertiseIP the reply targets the VM's private subnet IP from
the host's WAN with no route back.
Make lbVMUserData scheme-aware. New helper resolveMgmtRoute returns the
existing (MgmtRouteGateway, MgmtRouteTarget) when set (multi-node case) and
falls back to (MgmtBridgeIP, AdvertiseIP) when scheme is internal — only
internal LBs need the /32 route, so internet-facing single-node still gets
no bootcmd and the host-initiated WAN path stays clean.
Daemon now exposes MgmtBridgeIP and AdvertiseIP unconditionally so the
fallback has the inputs it needs.
* fix(daemon): stub sudoCommand in TestSetupComputeNode_ValidatesArgs (mulga-siv-31)
The test was calling real SetupComputeNode("chassis-test", ...) which shelled
out via sudoCommand to set external_ids:system-id=chassis-test on the host's
live OVS. On a dev box with OVS installed this overwrote the persistent UUID
(owned by openvswitch-switch and re-applied only on reboot), so vpcd's
discoverChassis filtered out the legitimate SBDB chassis row as 'stale local'
and crashlooped — taking out all VPC ops including ALB ENI provisioning.
Bind sudoCommand to a var so tests can swap it. Stub it in the test to return
exec.Command("/bin/false") and assert SetupComputeNode returns an error. The
test's intent (signature + error-path coverage) is preserved; nothing on the
host is touched.
* chore(vpcd): log DHCP Acquire concurrency + duration (mulga-siv-32)
Diagnostics-only change to surface whether nightly e2e cell-3 / cell-8
DORA timeouts correlate with concurrent Acquire calls on the same
bridge. Tracks per-bridge in-flight count and wallclock duration of each
Acquire; logs WARN on failure with both fields, DEBUG on success.
No behavioural change.
* ci(e2e-nightly): dump cluster journals on failure (mulga-siv-32)
run-multinode-e2e.sh dumps node journals via its own EXIT trap, but
run-cert-e2e.sh / run-lb-e2e.sh / reboot-e2e do not. When those scripts
fail the cluster is destroyed in Teardown without surfacing any daemon
logs, blocking root-cause analysis.
Add a workflow step that runs after the test scripts but before
Teardown when a previous step failed, ssh'ing to each node and pulling
the last 200 lines of every spinifex-* unit. Best-effort: skips
gracefully when inventory or nodes are unreachable.
Diagnostic-only; no behavioural change to the test path.
* fix(setup): mask dhcpcd.service to stop it racing vpcd's DHCP client (mulga-siv-32)
Debian 13 (Trixie) auto-enables a standalone dhcpcd.service when
dhcpcd-base is installed. It binds br-wan and races vpcd's in-process
nclient4 client for upstream OFFERs, draining the lab DHCP pool with
duplicate leases and causing intermittent DORA timeouts in the e2e
public-IP path (worst on cell-8 real-multi/dhcp/debian-13).
The ISO installer already masks the unit at install time
(cmd/installer/install/install.go:316). The binary install path used by
e2e nightly missed it, so debian hosts installed via setup.sh ran with
both DHCP clients live. Mirror the ISO mask here.
Ubuntu hosts are unaffected (dhcpcd-base does not auto-enable
dhcpcd.service on Noble).
* ci(e2e-nightly): also dump dhcpcd.service state on failure (mulga-siv-32)
Confirms or rules out the dhcpcd-vs-vpcd race hypothesis. Pulls the
dhcpcd.service journal alongside the spinifex-* units, plus
systemctl is-enabled / is-active and the DHCP client port (UDP 68)
listener so we can see directly whether dhcpcd is running and bound
to br-wan when an Acquire times out.

chmod 0770 without -R only affected the top directory; pre-existing files
(e.g. images imported while owned by another user at mode 0600) stayed
unreadable to the spinifex group, breaking image import on upgrade paths.
DHCP pool mode requires dhcpcd-base (/usr/sbin/dhcpcd) to obtain
leases from the router. Added to Makefile install-system, setup.sh
binary installer, and source-install docs.
