Julian Sommer fae6b08acc fix: conform DescribeImages BootMode and IAM list required members
DescribeImages projected BootMode through aws.String unconditionally, so an
AMI recording none emitted "", which is outside the model enum. RegisterImage
takes BootMode as an optional input, so this is the normal path for an AMI
registered without one, not stale data. Set the member only when present.

ListAccessKeys and ListGroups built their results from a nil slice when
nothing matched. xmlutil drops a nil slice entirely rather than emitting an
empty element, so the response lost a member the model marks required. Start
both slices empty and non-nil.

Integration conformance drops from 18 violations to 15; the remainder are the
EC2 AccessDenied error-code findings, which are unrelated.

Josh Siviour e54b79b7bf fix: harden ochre ingest progress, job cancel, and retrieve error typing (#893)
Persist ingestion progress and bound per-document work with a timeout so a
job on a dead backend fails fast and visibly instead of sitting silently
IN_PROGRESS; add StopIngestionJob so a stuck job can be cancelled; map a
backend-down Retrieve/RetrieveAndGenerate error to 503 instead of an opaque
500.

Ben Duncan 8b3c706ea3 docs: rework the multi-node install guide, fix cross-doc links
Multi-node install
- Lead with the fact that the guide builds a three-node cluster, and say
  how to go beyond three. The callout sits inside ## Overview because the
  docs site discards everything above the first section heading.
- Replace the OVN-only sizing prose with a table covering all three
  distributed layers, and move the OVN control-plane detail into the VPC
  networking guide, linked from here.
- Add minimum and recommended hardware.
- Move the object storage layout to the end as background; it was the
  second thing a reader hit.
- Collapse the ISO conversion notes from a section into one skippable
  box, now that --force is unconditional in Step 4 and the formation
  port needs no manual intervention.
- Expand verification with spx get nodes and spx top nodes, including
  what to look for in each.
- Drop the install-node.sh shortcut (internal tooling) and the
  "adding a node later" section (no good story yet).

Corrections found while writing
- Servers 4+ were described as running no database. They run predastore
  and viperblock like every other node; only the OVN database cluster is
  capped at three. Fixed in four places.
- Step 4 never needed the firewall down: spx admin init opens the
  formation port itself for the formation window. Only Step 3's
  peer-scoped OVN ports are affected.
- `nft list table inet spinifex_filter | grep spinifex_peers` could never
  match — the peer list is an nft define, expanded at load time. Anyone
  following it would have seen empty output and assumed the worst.
- Disambiguate "database": with predastore, NATS and OVN all in play it
  needed qualifying throughout.
- Align the example output region with the AWS_REGION the guide exports.

Cross-doc links
- Rewrite relative and category-prefixed links to the canonical
  /docs/<slug> form. The site publishes docs flat, so ../foo/README.md
  and /docs/category/foo both 404.
- Point the six links to unpublished docs at the source repo instead.
- Fix four fragments written against GitHub's anchor algorithm.

Josh Siviour b482b41e96 feat: implement EC2 MonitorInstances and UnmonitorInstances (#853)
* feat: implement EC2 MonitorInstances and UnmonitorInstances

The telemetry collector already supports both EC2 monitoring tiers and
already switches a running poller between them when its discovery file
changes, but nothing could make that change: Monitoring.Enabled was only
ever written at launch, and both API actions returned InvalidAction.

Route through the owning daemon over ec2.cmd.<id> rather than the
spinifex-workers queue group, so an instance running on any node is
reachable; no responders falls back to the shared stopped store, where the
write is a CAS so a racing start-claim cannot resurrect a deleted record.

Also report Monitoring on DescribeInstances. It is derived in
ProjectInstance from the same field the collector's period reads, so a
describe cannot disagree with the tier actually being collected and
instances launched before this change report disabled without a backfill.

* fix: wake the telemetry poller when its monitoring tier changes

poller.run re-read its period inside the tick loop, so a reset waited out
the interval being replaced: moving a 300s instance to the detailed tier
took up to five minutes to have any effect, which reads as the API call
not working. Found verifying monitor-instances on env13.

updateMeta now signals a buffered retier channel when PeriodSeconds moves
and run selects on it alongside the ticker. The signal only resets the
ticker rather than forcing a tick, so a published delta still spans the
period its batch declares. The send is non-blocking and the channel
coalesces, so a slow poller cannot stall the reconcile loop.

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.

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.

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.

* 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.

Josh Siviour bc8ad05a0f feat: Ochre Phase 5 knowledge bases (bedrock-agent KB/data-source + RAG) (#792)
* feat: ochre-vector list-jobs subject

Adds ochre.vector.listJobs to the daemon-side VectorService surface (both
the in-process and NATS-forwarding implementations) so a caller can list
every ingestion job for an account rather than looking one up by id.
Widens jobGetter to expose JobStore.List, registers the subject on the
daemon's post-connect subscription table, and updates the CLI test
double to satisfy the widened VectorService interface.

Also carries the jackc/puddle/v2 indirect dependency go.sum was missing.

* feat: bedrock-agent knowledge-base + data-source CRUD

Adds the emulated AWS bedrock-agent control-plane gateway service:
KnowledgeBase/DataSource CRUD, StartIngestionJob/GetIngestionJob/
ListIngestionJobs, backed by new gateway-owned KBStore/DataSourceStore
JetStream KV persistence (mirroring registry.go's CAS idiom) and the
existing ochre-vector daemon surface for the bound vector index.

One knowledge base binds exactly one vector index. embeddingModelArn
maps to EmbeddingModel/Dimension; storageConfiguration and roleArn are
accepted and stored verbatim but never acted on. CreateDataSource maps
S3 + fixed-size chunking config onto a SourceSpec, converting AWS's
maxTokens/overlapPercentage into internal ChunkSize/ChunkOverlap.
DeleteKnowledgeBase cascades to every data source under it before
dropping the bound index. Wires BedrockAgentKB/BedrockAgentDataSources/
BedrockAgentVector into the gateway and registers bedrock-agent in the
supported-services and dispatch tables.

Runtime (Retrieve/RetrieveAndGenerate) is out of scope here.

* test: cover bedrock-agent routing and KB/DataSource store edges

Adds end-to-end HTTP tests for BedrockAgent_Request's route table and
per-route handler closures (all eleven operations, plus unknown-route/
missing-account/nil-dependency error paths), KBStore/DataSourceStore
PurgeAll and no-JetStream-client error paths, and ListJobs coverage
(vectorService, NATS round trip, per-account scoping) in the existing
ochre-vector API test suite.

* feat: bedrock-agent-runtime retrieve + retrieve-and-generate

Adds the emulated bedrock-agent-runtime data plane: Retrieve resolves a
knowledge base to its bound vector index and runs a similarity query;
RetrieveAndGenerate runs the same retrieval, renders a RAG prompt (default or
caller-supplied template), and calls Converse in-process for generation,
returning citations built from the retrieved chunks and a session id.

Recovers the full RetrievalFilter operator set from the raw request body
since the vendored aws-sdk-go RetrievalFilter type only carries andAll/orAll,
and fixes GetService never routing real signed bedrock-agent traffic (only
bedrock-runtime and bedrock had discriminator rules; bedrock-agent's own
knowledgebases paths had none).

* fix: bedrock-agent KB delete idempotency + ingestion-job ownership

CreateKnowledgeBase: a rollback DeleteIndex failure after a kb.Create
claim failure is now logged at Error level with the orphaned index id
instead of a bare Warn, while the caller still sees kb.Create's own
error unchanged.

DeleteKnowledgeBase: a bound index that DeleteIndex reports already
gone (ErrIndexNotFound) no longer aborts before the KB record itself is
removed, so a KB never dangles pointing at an index that no longer
exists. Any other DeleteIndex error still aborts the cascade.

GetIngestionJob: now verifies the addressed dataSourceId owns the job
(Bucket+Prefix match against the data source's own SourceSpec, same
best-effort check ListIngestionJobs already used), not just the
knowledge base's bound index -- closing a path where a job could be
read through the wrong data source id.

* fix: default bedrock-agent-runtime retrieve to 5 results (AWS parity)

* fix: thread DataSourceID through ingestion jobs

JobRecord and IngestRequest now carry an exact DataSourceID instead of
relying on Bucket+Prefix as a best-effort proxy. StartIngestionJob
stamps it from the DataSource record; GetIngestionJob and
ListIngestionJobs filter on it exactly, treating a job with no
DataSourceID as belonging to no bedrock-agent data source.

* fix: purge KB/DataSource records on appliance teardown

Appliance.Teardown purged the index registry and job store but left
the gateway-owned KB/DataSource KV records dangling, pointing at a
deleted index. WithKBStores attaches those stores the same way
WithStores does for registry/jobs, built before Connect so teardown
still works on a broken appliance, and Teardown purges them too.

Josh Siviour d52245001e feat: Ochre vector store (tenant pgvector, embeddings, ingestion, operator teardown) (#788)
* feat: add /v1/embeddings gateway adapter

* feat: Ochre vector store pgvector backend, KV index registry, orchestration

Adds handlers_ochrevector: the VectorBackend interface + pgx/v5 impl
with per-account schema/role isolation enforced via SET LOCAL ROLE +
search_path inside every transaction, the KV index registry
(CREATING/READY/DELETING/STALE), and the create/delete/list/reconcile
orchestration tying them together with crash-safe rollback and
re-entrant recovery of stuck records.

* feat: singleton appliance-ensure state machine for ochre vector store

Adds the encrypted control-plane credential store and re-entrant
Ensure state machine for the platform pgvector appliance (D2): a
fixed-key KV claim mirroring Registry.Reserve elects exactly one
winner to launch the appliance via an injected ApplianceLauncher,
losers wait or resume a stale crashed provision, and the master
password is generated once, stored only AES-256-GCM encrypted, and
decrypted solely inside Connect to build a pgxBackend.

* feat: Ochre vector store async ingestion (chunker, job store, worker)

Adds Stage 3: a deterministic recursive chunk splitter, a per-account
ingestion job-record store mirroring the index registry, the
transactional per-document replace on the backend, and the
IngestService worker that lists a predastore source, chunks and
embeds each object, and replaces its rows idempotently.

* feat: Ochre vector store similarity query and metadata filter grammar

Adds VectorBackend.Query (cosine kNN, k default/cap, iterative HNSW
scan under a filter) and a Bedrock-KB-shaped metadata Filter AST that
compiles to parameterized SQL over jsonb, closing off arbitrary SQL by
allowlisting jsonb keys and always binding values as params. Also
fixes RunJob reporting READY on a job that ingested nothing regardless
of failure cause, and stamps SourceSpec.Metadata onto ingested rows so
the new filters have data to match against.

* feat: Ochre vector store request/response API, VectorService, and CLI

Adds the daemon-facing VectorService interface (index CRUD, ingest,
describe job, query), its server implementation over the existing
registry/backend/embedder, a NATS-forwarding client, and the
`spx admin ochre vector` operator CLI. Query resolves and embeds
against each index's own pinned model; ingest stamps the same
model/dimension onto every source spec server-side. accountID is
always taken from the caller context, never the request payload.

Daemon subscription wiring and manifest registration are a later
change; this is pure request/response plumbing with no construction
into daemon.go or awsgw.go.

* feat: wire Ochre vector store VectorService into the daemon

Constructs the platform Postgres appliance and VectorService behind a new
OchreVector config section that defaults off, so existing daemons are
unaffected. Adds a real RDS-backed ApplianceLauncher that provisions the
appliance over rds.CreateDBInstance/DescribeDBInstances, registers the six
ochre.vector.* NATS subjects mirroring the bedrock endpoint service pattern,
and degrades to a disabled (nil) service on any boot-time appliance failure
rather than blocking daemon startup.

* fix: fix Ochre vector store boot ordering and self-register subjects

startOchreVector ran before subscribeAll, so its appliance launch fired
rds.CreateDBInstance/DescribeDBInstances requests with no responder yet
registered, timing out the launch on a first-enable boot. It also ran
synchronously, blocking daemon startup up to the appliance launch timeout.

Move it to a background goroutine started after subscribeAll returns, and
have it register its own ochre.vector.* subjects once the VectorService is
actually constructed, via a new registerNatsSubs helper shared with
subscribeAll's boot-time table. Guard d.natsSubscriptions with d.mu, since
this background registration can now race the shutdown path's
unsubscribe-all sweep.

* feat: bake pgvector into the shared rds-postgres image

* fix: reach the ochre appliance over a routed daemon port on its ENI IP

The daemon dialled the RDS appliance over rec.Endpoint, a vanity spx3.net
hostname the control-plane host can neither resolve nor route to, so a healthy
appliance was never reachable and the vector store disabled itself.

Resolve the appliance's customer-ENI private IP read-only via
ec2.DescribeNetworkInterfaces filtered on the spinifex:rds-db-instance tag, dial
that IP for the DSN instead of the hostname, and give the daemon its own routed
ENI in the appliance's subnet bound to an OVS host port so the IP is reachable.
Retry appliance startup with bounded backoff instead of hard-disabling on the
first transient.

* fix: install pgvector at bootstrap for the Ochre vector appliance

The daemon connects to the appliance as its NOSUPERUSER master, and the
image's pgvector is not a trusted extension, so CREATE EXTENSION vector
failed with permission denied. rds-init now installs it via the bootstrap
superuser, gated on the appliance's fixed master name so tenant instances
are unaffected.

* fix: grant the Ochre appliance master CREATE on its database

The daemon's EnsureAccount runs CREATE SCHEMA per account as the NOSUPERUSER
master, which does not own the postgres database, so bootstrap now grants it
CREATE on the database alongside the pgvector install. Both are gated to the
appliance master, so tenant instances are unaffected.

* fix: make the Ochre appliance's pgvector reachable under per-account isolation

The daemon connects as a NOSUPERUSER master and runs every account operation
under SET ROLE with a search_path pinned to the account schema. Two gaps blocked
that against a real non-superuser Postgres: the master could not SET ROLE into
the roles it creates, and the account role could not see the vector type.

Bootstrap now grants the appliance master createrole_self_grant and installs
pgvector into a read-only extensions schema granted to PUBLIC; the backend
carries that schema on each account search_path so the vector type resolves
without weakening per-account write isolation. All appliance-scoped.

* fix: prune stale VPC host port before installing the daemon appliance port

A replaced Ochre appliance is handed the same subnet IP, so a new daemon ENI
mints a fresh vhp- port at an address a superseded port still holds. The old
port survives at the OS/OVS layer even after its ENI record is wiped, so two
interfaces claim one address and the kernel can route to the dead one
(EHOSTUNREACH). installVPCHostPort now prunes any other vhp- port holding the
target address before installing.

* fix: gate VM restore's stale-socket kill on backing-store readiness

On daemon start, a live VM whose NBD sockets fail to dial was force-killed as an
orphan. While predastore/viperblock is still coming up after a restart those
sockets are transiently unreachable, so a healthy VM (the Ochre appliance was
the observed victim) was destroyed and its RDS record flipped to failed. The
kill now only fires when the backing store is confirmed up; otherwise the live
QEMU is kept and QMP reconnected. Genuine orphan reaping under a healthy store
is unchanged.

* fix: drive ochre ingest jobs from a daemon-side sweep scheduler

* feat: add operator teardown verb for the ochre platform appliance

Adds Appliance.Teardown to remove the singleton platform Postgres
appliance (RDS instance, host port, KV record), an admin-only NATS
subject and daemon handler to drive it, and `spx admin ochre appliance
teardown --confirm` to invoke it without exposing the action through
the tenant awsgw surface.

* fix: register ochre appliance teardown before Connect so it survives a broken appliance

* fix: purge ochre index and job metadata on appliance teardown

* test: mark ochre in-package test files for the external-test gate

* fix(e2e): resolve the listener inventory without a Go toolchain on the target node

tests/e2e/multinode/listener_invariant_test.go resolved
docs/security/network-connections/README.md at runtime via `go env
GOMOD`, which works under `go test` but not inside a compiled .test
binary shipped to a node with no Go toolchain. Embed the doc in a new
docs/security/network-connections package instead, so the content is
compiled into the binary and every caller parses bytes rather than a
resolved path. RepoRoot and DocPath are now unused and removed.

Josh Siviour 57bfbc20df test: listener invariant static guard + e2e runtime check (#782)
* test: add the listener invariant static guard and e2e runtime check

Adds both halves the plan called for: a static test in
spinifex/network/invariants that scans install scripts and config
templates for a bare OVSDB ptcp remote, a wildcard bind on a
Cluster/Encap port, or a bind port absent from the inventory, and an
e2e test in tests/e2e/multinode that asserts the same on live ss
-tulnp output. Both read
docs/security/network-connections/README.md "## 1. Inbound
Listeners" as their fixture through a shared, non-test parser package
(spinifex/network/listenerinventory), so a wildcard exception has to
be declared in the doc's own prose rather than hardcoded in either
test.

* fix: make the listener wildcard exception fail closed on an explicit marker

The prior heuristic granted an exception for any unnegated "wildcard"
or "0.0.0.0" mention within 40 characters of the port's row. That
fails open: a future row phrased as "avoids the wildcard" or with a
negation further upstream than the window would silently exempt
itself. Replace it with a single exact literal phrase, "binds the
wildcard by design", that a row must contain to grant the exception —
no other wording counts, so an unrecognized mention denies rather
than grants. Update the two rows that need it (5300, 500/4500) and
document the marker's role in the inventory's own prose.

* docs: record that the Geneve tunnel socket binds the wildcard by design

Josh Siviour ee1ee4f033 fix(preflight): report services still executing a replaced binary (#781)
Overwriting /usr/local/bin/spx while spinifex.target is running does not move
the services onto it. Each keeps executing the replaced inode until it
restarts, so a node serves a mixture of two builds, and because the handlers
are NATS queue-group workers the skew shows up as roughly one request in three
behaving like the old build — an intermittent fault rather than a broken node.

The ansible deploy path already detects and remediates this, but only there:
an out-of-band binary copy leaves nothing to report it, and on env19 that
state went unnoticed for a full day. spx admin preflight now reports it, so an
operator has a command to run and a script has a non-zero exit to gate on.

Detection follows the deploy path's: a (deleted) marker on /proc/<pid>/exe, a
target path that no longer resolves, or a path that resolves to a different
inode than the one being executed.

Josh Siviour 2fe885441b fix(shutdown): scope a local drain to its own node and stop counting failed phases as done (#780)
* fix(shutdown): scope a local drain to its own node and stop counting failed phases as done

A node's spinifex-shutdown.service publishes its GATE and DRAIN requests to
the shared spinifex.cluster.shutdown.* subjects, which every daemon subscribes
to as a fan-out. The node filter only decided which ACK the stopping node
waited for, so by the time it applied, every other node had already stopped
its gateway, UI and VPC daemon and powered down its guests. Stopping one node
took down every guest in the cluster.

Requests now carry the node they apply to, and a daemon drops one addressed
elsewhere without ACKing. A cluster shutdown leaves the field empty, so it
still reaches every node.

The STORAGE phase also ran 'pkill -f nbdkit', which matches every nbdkit on
the host: another node's backends on a shared host, and a live guest's backend
that survived a daemon restart under KillMode=process. Cleanup now sweeps this
node's own nbdkit-vol-*.pid files and signals a PID only while /proc still
agrees it is nbdkit, so a recycled PID is never hit.

Finally, the coordinator counted errored ACKs toward its per-phase quorum, so
a node that failed to drain reported N/N and the run advanced into STORAGE and
PERSIST with guests still running. Only clean ACKs count now, and any errored
one aborts the phase unless --force.

* test(shutdown): cover the phase gate, every handler's target check and the real proc paths

Diff coverage came in at 52.9% against a 60% threshold. The gaps were the
per-phase target checks beyond GATE, the real procComm and signalProcess
bodies that every cleanup test stubs out, and the coordinator's abort branch,
which sat inside runClusterShutdown where no unit test could reach it.

The abort decision moves into shutdownPhaseOutcome, a pure function returning
the completed count and the message to print, so the rule that an errored node
does not count toward the quorum is testable on its own rather than only
reachable through a full cluster shutdown.

Josh Siviour 58e0f2879f feat: serve the deployment CA from IMDS instead of baking it into images (#784)
Image import shelled out to virt-customize to install the deployment CA into
an imported image's trust store. The step was best-effort and skipped whenever
virt-customize was absent, which is the default: nothing in provisioning
installs guestfs-tools on a node. When it did run it mutated the image after
its checksum had been verified, it could not handle Windows guests, and it tied
CA rotation to re-importing every affected AMI.

Nothing the stack launches depended on it. ECS container instances, EKS k3s
servers and BootDirect microVMs all receive the gateway CA at launch via
user-data or fw_cfg, and boot itself needs no CA because IMDS is plain HTTP.
The only uncovered case is a customer instance whose own workload calls a
Spinifex HTTPS endpoint, which needs a pull mechanism rather than an image
mutation.

The IMDS responder now serves the CA at /spinifex/ca.pem, outside the /latest
tree so the AWS-compatible surface stays byte-identical to EC2's. The route is
token-free because a CA certificate is public material and the console already
serves it unauthenticated; the X-Forwarded-For SSRF guard still applies. The
PEM is cached and re-read on modtime change, so rotating ca.pem on a node

Josh Siviour 6f4aa495e6 feat: reconcile systemd unit files on upgrade (#771)
* feat: reconcile systemd unit files on upgrade

Unit files were written once at install time by install_systemd() in
scripts/setup.sh and never re-asserted. A node upgraded by swapping the
spx binary kept whatever units it was installed with, so any fix that
lives in a unit rather than in code never reached it.

This is not theoretical. A node whose spinifex-viperblock.service
predates KillMode=process defaults to KillMode=control-group, so on a
target stop TimeoutStopSec expires mid-flush and systemd cgroup-SIGKILLs
every nbdkit while guest QEMU survives in the daemon's own cgroup: the
guest keeps running with no storage path.

Units are now stamped with a spinifex-unit-version marker, embedded in
the binary via a generated file, and reconciled by spx admin upgrade.
Missing or version-stale units are replaced after a timestamped backup;
a unit at the current version whose content differs is reported as
operator-modified and never overwritten. Drop-ins under <unit>.d are
untouched, so systemctl edit overrides survive.

Nothing is restarted. A daemon-reload is enough for KillMode and
TimeoutStopSec to apply to the next stop, so drift is corrected without
disturbing a running guest.

Adds --dry-run, --units-only and --skip-units to spx admin upgrade.

* test: cover systemd reconcile error paths and the admin upgrade CLI flow

Diff coverage on the unit-migration PR sat at 45.8%, below the 60% gate.
Adds tests for reconcile.go's error/edge paths (unreadable unit, backup
and write failures, daemon-reload failure, malformed version markers,
downgrade-is-conflict) and drives admin_upgrade.go's CLI flow directly
via an injectable exit and a decision matrix extracted into
validateUpgradeFlags/upgradeSummary for testability.

Josh Siviour 1e1d00cda1 docs: record the AMI-metadata upgrade cliff and binary-swap skew (#773)
AMI metadata moved to ebsmetadata documents and the legacy
ami-<id>/config.json read path was removed rather than migrated, so an
AMI imported before the change is invisible to the control plane after
upgrading. Nothing reports it as pending, because the gap is in stored
data rather than in a config file. Warn about it alongside the existing
object-storage exemption, and say how to check and recover.

Also document the binary-swap trap: replacing spx under a running
target leaves services on the replaced inode, and because handlers are
queue-group workers a skewed node answers a fraction of requests with
the old behaviour, which reads as an intermittent fault.

Josh Siviour 93a15c1a8f docs: reconcile the listener inventory with the listeners that exist (#767)
The inventory was missing northstar (53 on the advertise address, 5300 on the
wildcard and dialled cross-node by every node's per-instance DNS shim), charon
(500/4500 plus ESP), Geneve 6081, the per-instance IMDS and VPC-DNS listeners,
and chronyd. Section 6 asks the operator to compare the table against ss -tulnp,
which was not possible while six listeners were absent.

Two classifications were wrong. 8443 was Cluster, but predastore binds the S3
gate to 0.0.0.0 deliberately because S3 is a public plane. 4432 was External,
but it binds the node's --bind address and is transient.

The scope vocabulary predated the three-plane model, so it could not express the
encap plane or record that a node with fewer NICs collapses the planes onto its
public address. Cluster and Encap now state intent rather than a guarantee.

Replaces the reference nftables ruleset. The previous one had no conntrack,
loopback, ICMP or ime-* rules and ended in a blanket drop, so an operator who
applied it lost guest metadata, guest DNS, all egress return traffic and their
own SSH session. The replacement is input-only in a dedicated table, because
nftables verdicts are per-table and a default-deny forward chain would override
the accepts vpcd writes to ip filter and break every routed-NAT instance.

Josh Siviour 4dca2c7b59 fix: drain guests on a plain systemctl stop spinifex.target (#766)
* fix: drain guests on a plain target stop, not just restart

`systemctl is-system-running` cannot tell a plain `systemctl stop
spinifex.target` apart from the stop half of a restart -- both report
`running`, and the old `--only-if-host-stopping` gate skipped the drain
for both. That left guests running with no QMP shutdown and no volume
unmount while predastore/viperblock stopped underneath them, so a real
stop discarded any writes still in flight.

Add a second signal: `systemctl list-jobs` shows a pending START job for
spinifex.target during a restart (the target's stop leg resolves
instantly, since it owns no processes) or a pending RESTART job for
spinifex-shutdown.service itself when that unit is restarted directly
(PartOf propagates target-to-member only). Renamed the flag to
`--unless-restarting` to match: drain on a real shutdown or a plain
stop, skip only when one of those jobs shows a restart is already
queued. Any step systemctl can't answer fails toward draining, and a
skipped drain now warns loudly (naming each instance still running) so
an operator sees the risk in the journal instead of discovering it via
`ps`. `--only-if-host-stopping` stays as a deprecated, still-functional
alias so a partial upgrade between unit file and binary doesn't break.

* fix: retry the local drain GATE/DRAIN ACK instead of failing on first miss

A drain that fails at GATE is indistinguishable from a skipped drain from
the guest's perspective: it keeps running while storage goes away
underneath it. Stopping spinifex.target shortly after a restart hit exactly
this: the daemon had not finished re-subscribing to NATS, so the ACK
request came back with zero subscribers and NATS bounced it back near-
instantly ("no responders"), which is why the failure logged in about a
second despite --timeout=120s. collectLocalShutdownACK now retries with
backoff bounded by the phase timeout instead of failing on the first bounce,
and an exhausted retry budget logs at ERROR and names the guests still
running via a severity-aware refactor of warnIfGuestsLeftRunning, so a
failed drain is unmistakable in the journal rather than silent.

* fix: reap idle nbdkit concurrently and re-derive viperblock's stop budget

KillMode=process made viperblockd the sole reaper of nbdkit on SIGTERM, but
shutdownVolumes reaped them one at a time and TimeoutStopSec was never
re-derived for that change. With several mounted volumes the serial loop
blew past the 30s budget, systemd SIGKILLed viperblockd mid-loop, and
whichever nbdkit hadn't been reaped yet was orphaned.

Fan the per-volume utils.KillProcess calls out concurrently so the reap
costs one worst-case nbdkit, not N of them summed, and raise
TimeoutStopSec to 150s to strictly exceed that single-volume worst case
(120s KillProcess grace + nbdkit's own 20s drain + headroom). Add an
invariant asserting the two stay in that relationship, and a test proving
the reap is actually concurrent (fails against the old serial loop).

* docs: document the host and guest lifecycle contract

States what happens to running guests for every host lifecycle event: reboot, target restart, target stop, daemon restart, daemon crash, power loss and a coordinated cluster shutdown. Records the older-release behaviour where a plain target stop left guests with no data path, and how to tell which behaviour a node has.

Josh Siviour 80faf59a43 fix(ovn): bind the NB/SB client listeners to loopback and the lan plane (#765)
setup-ovn.sh set the OVN Northbound and Southbound client remotes with a bare
set-connection ptcp:6641 / ptcp:6642. The address-free ptcp: form binds every
interface, so on a multi-plane node the unauthenticated, unencrypted OVSDB
control plane was reachable from the public interface. Write access to the
Southbound database is control of the whole tenant network fabric.

ovsdb-server takes remotes from two additive sources: the Connection table,
which RAFT replicates cluster-wide, and local ovn-ctl command-line flags. That
split is what the fix uses. Loopback goes in the replicated row, because
127.0.0.1 is correct on every node, so replication is harmless and local
clients keep working. The lan address goes on the per-node command line via
--db-nb-addr and --db-nb-create-insecure-remote, which never replicates, so
each node binds its own address without pushing it to its peers.

A new --lan-addr flag carries that address, falling back to
--db-cluster-local-addr so clustered nodes stay correct without caller changes.
The standalone branch now writes /etc/default/ovn-central too, since a two-node
install still has a remote ovn-controller that needs the lan listener. The
guard on --db-nb-addr is load-bearing: it defaults to 0.0.0.0, so emitting
create-insecure-remote without a resolved address would recreate the bug.

install-node.sh passes the lan address on both branches and warns when the lan
plane has collapsed onto the public address, since the listener then lands on
the public interface and a firewall is the only remaining control.

Ben Duncan c92294e7d5 feat: render predastore templates with the cluster and S3 planes split (#763)
* feat: render predastore templates with the cluster and S3 planes split

The templates set one bind_addr per host, which put raft and blob wherever
S3 was published. A host now binds the cluster plane on the address peers
dial and the gate carries its own bind_addr for the S3 API, so the installer
can hand S3 the WAN without exposing replication with it.

The single-node template also drops to one node of each role. Extra blob
nodes only hash-partition keys across more badger indexes on the same drive,
and extra meta replicas add fsyncs for a quorum that dies with the machine.

brynmailer-mdc 1394fbf488 docs: describe the predastore host and node model
The port tables were wrong in both directions: inter-node traffic is QUIC over
UDP rather than TCP, and the shard range 9991-9993 no longer exists. Ports are
unique within a host rather than across the cluster, so every machine uses the
same three, and a single-node install opens only the S3 port because colocated
nodes talk over an in-process pipe.

The reference architectures scripted a move of node data out of a directory
layout that no longer exists, which would have broken any install following
them. The update guide now says object storage has no migration path.

brynmailer-mdc a7a62addeb test: rebuild the predastore fixture and service tests on the facade
The fixture wrote a config the strict decoder rejects and built its cluster
through clusterrun, so it now renders a v1 TOML, loads it through LoadConfig and
serves under Run. Loading the real file means the fixture trips over the same
validation an install does. Its data directory holds node-<id> directly, and it
drains on cancellation rather than being abandoned at exit.

The runtime tests drove buildRuntime, serve and the old on-disk layout, all of
which predastore owns now, so they go. What replaces them covers what spinifex
still decides: the flag merge and its precedence, a host id or gate node the
config does not have, and the pid file behind Stop and Status.

Two fixes to earlier commits in this series: the host id conversion moves behind
its own guard, and the node status probes use WaitGroup.Go.

* fix(ochre): self-heal weights stage when the recorded snapshot is gone

runStageWeights's idempotency check trusted a matching source URI without
verifying the snapshot it names still exists, so a host rebuild or volume
GC that lost the snapshot left stage permanently short-circuited on a
useless KV record until an operator ran 'weights remove' first. Inject a
weightsSnapshotChecker, verify liveness before the no-op return, and fall
through to re-materialise when the snapshot is gone. 'weights list' uses
the same checker to mark dangling entries so an operator can see which
staged models can actually serve without waiting for endpoint launch to
fail.

Josh Siviour 272b4b22e8 feat(ochre): add the vLLM serving AMI and give the daemon a route to it (#740)
* feat(images): add a vllm-serving AMI as a stacked mkosi profile

LaunchServingVM resolves its AMI by the tags spinifex:managed-by=bedrock and
spinifex:bedrock-role=vllm-serving. No image carried either, so every Ensure
failed at resolveServingAMI. The only GPU image ships the NVIDIA driver and
Docker but no Python, no vLLM and no serving unit, so tagging it would have
moved the failure from admission to first boot.

Add a vllm profile that stacks onto gpu-nvidia and owns the whole guest side
of the launcher contract: the runtime, vllm-serve.service, the weights mount
and the tags. vLLM is baked into a uv-managed venv rather than pulled as a
container at boot — a runtime docker pull of vllm/vllm-openai is known to
stall this platform's write plane, and mkosi's unprivileged build has no
daemon to bake an image from anyway.

Also bring images/mkosi.profiles/ under make test-images. Its scripts have no
.sh suffix, so the existing name glob skipped exactly the files worth linting;
sources are found by shebang instead.

* fix(images): make the vllm postinst survive the build sandbox

Two failures found by actually running the build.

uv installs to /usr/local/bin, which mkosi's postinst PATH need not carry, so
`command -v uv` reported a good install as missing. Call it by absolute path,
and check it the same way.

`vllm --version` initialises device config and dies with "Failed to infer
device type" on a builder with no GPU, so it could never have verified
anything. Assert the pinned version through package metadata instead, which
also catches a version mismatch rather than merely a broken entrypoint.

* fix(images): pin the serving AMI datasource and mirror cloud-init to the console

A serving VM boots through LaunchSystemInstance, so it comes up dual-NIC with a
fw_cfg netcfg blob and takes its user-data solely from IMDS — the same shape as
the EKS control plane. That path carries a cloud-init datasource pin; the vllm
profile never got one, and the base config deliberately leaves datasource_list
unpinned, so the serving image was the only system VM booting without it.

Reuse the EKS pin rather than copying it. The 99- prefix is load-bearing:
read_conf_d() applies cloud.cfg.d in REVERSE and mergemanydict() is
first-source-wins, so a 90- name loses to cloud-init's own 90_dpkg.cfg ('_'
sorts above '-') and the pin is discarded in silence. The postinst asserts the
MERGED datasource_list via cloud-init's own read_conf_with_confd rather than
checking the file exists, because it existed at 90- too and did nothing there.

Also mirror every cloud-init stage to the serial console. A serving VM is
headless, and a guest that wedges before handover never surrenders
/var/log/cloud-init-output.log, so the console get-console-output reads is the
only channel an operator has.

The images_test.go case covers the two tags resolveServingAMI filters on; it
matches on those alone and never on name, so a typo hides the image entirely.

* fix(images): make the dhcpcd data-NIC lease genuinely one-shot

dhcp_oneshot() promised to configure the link and exit "leaving no daemon
to fight cloud-init", but the dhcpcd branch passed only -q, which is quiet
rather than one-shot. Every Ubuntu image takes that branch, so a dhcpcd
daemon survived on the data NIC holding the control socket.

cloud-init's Ec2 datasource then runs its own ephemeral dhcpcd on the same
NIC. Instead of spawning, dhcpcd forwards the invocation to the resident
daemon as a control command and exits 0, and --dumplease returns the
resident daemon's lease, so discovery looks successful. Cleanup then waits
for a pid file at /run/dhcpcd/<iface>-4.pid that no process ever wrote,
spinning its full 30000 x 10ms budget: init-local stalls for exactly 300s
on every system-instance boot.

Adding -1 exits once the interface is configured and -p keeps the address
and routes across that exit. Both are needed; -1 alone tears the link back
down. The test now models the real clients — the stub stays resident unless
given the flag that makes its client exit, and the dhcpcd branch is forced
by dropping udhcpc from PATH rather than left to whether the host happens
to have /usr/share/udhcpc/default.script.

* fix(images): serve without a CUDA toolkit and stop vllm-serve crash-looping

vLLM picks FlashInfer for top-k/top-p sampling, and FlashInfer JIT-compiles
that kernel on first use. The serving image ships the driver and the
container toolkit but no nvcc, so the sampler warmup died with "Could not
find nvcc and default cuda_home='/usr/local/cuda' doesn't exist" minutes
into a GPU cold start, after the model had already loaded.

VLLM_USE_FLASHINFER_SAMPLER=0 selects vLLM's native top-k/top-p sampler,
which is the same operation with no CUDA toolchain at runtime. Everything
else on the serving path is already precompiled in the wheels: the attention
backend resolves to FLASH_ATTN and CUDA graph capture completes, both
without nvcc. Baking FlashInfer's AOT modules is the alternative if the
fused kernel is ever wanted, and it keeps the toolchain in the builder
rather than the appliance.

The unit had Restart=on-failure with no bound, so an unfixable start failure
restarted forever and buried its own first traceback under identical copies
on the serial console — the only view an operator has of a headless guest.
StartLimitIntervalSec/StartLimitBurst make it report instead.

The postinst asserts the installed unit carries the sampler setting, for the
same reason the datasource pin is asserted there: the alternative is finding
out at runtime, on a GPU, five minutes in.

Also corrects the shared datasource pin's header, which still claimed it
installs as 90-spinifex-ec2-imds.cfg. It is installed at 99- by the vllm
profile precisely because a 90- name loses the reverse-sorted, first-source-
wins cloud.cfg.d merge to cloud-init's own 90_dpkg.cfg.

* fix(bedrock): raise the serving-endpoint readiness bound to 15 minutes

The 5 minute bound was chosen before any cold start had been measured, and
its own comment asked to be corrected once a model actually ran on wattle.
It now has: Llama 3.2 1B on an RTX A1000 reached "Application startup
complete" 257.6s after launch, leaving ~42s of margin on the smallest model
this platform can serve, with a cold torch.compile accounting for 26.3s of
it. A bigger card and a bigger model are unmeasured.

The two failure modes are not symmetric. Too low tears down an endpoint that
was about to come up and reports it as a failed launch; too high only makes
a genuinely stuck launch take longer to give up. So the bound is set well
clear of the single data point rather than close to it.

The CLI's own wait moves to 20 minutes to stay above it. The daemon starts
its clock when the VM is launched, up to a minute after the CLI starts its
own, so leaving both at 15 would expire the client first and report a bare
"timed out" in place of the daemon's abort, which carries the reason.

* fix: give the Ochre daemon a routed port in the Bedrock system VPC

The readiness probe and every InvokeModel call dial a serving VM's
system-VPC address from inside the daemon, but that subnet lives in OVN
on br-int and the host has no route to it, so a healthy VM never reached
READY.

Each daemon now owns an ENI in the system VPC's private subnet, bound to
an OVS internal port on br-int by iface-id, exactly as ovn-controller
binds a guest tap. The ENI address is installed at the subnet's prefix
length, which is what supplies the connected route. BaseURL is unchanged:
the address it already carried is now reachable.

Describe-or-create keyed on a per-node description, since ENIs carry no
tag filter, so a restart or a second endpoint reuses one address instead
of leaking one per launch. The port is ensured before anything else the
launch creates: a VM the daemon cannot dial holds a GPU for the whole
readiness window before unwinding.
