test(ci): give nightly flake gates contention margin; add pg18 + py3.13/3.14 - #471
Conversation
…atrix Four assertion shapes in the nightly chaos and benchmark suites were tight enough that shared-runner CPU contention failed them while every invariant they exist for was intact (#399, #434). All scaling now lives in awa/tests/ci_timing.rs and only ever loosens a bound, and only when CI is set, so a local run keeps the strict values. - The mixed-fleet chaos test set heartbeat_staleness to 250ms against a 50ms heartbeat interval. Under contention a live worker's heartbeat missed that window, the runtime correctly rescued a healthy attempt, and the test saw a genuine duplicate completion. scaled_staleness gives the window margin while leaving the heartbeat and rescue intervals at chaos cadence, so rescue is still exercised. - That test's assert-after-drain step watched both completion streams for a fixed 250ms quiet window — the race #335 fixed in test_weight_proportionality. It now waits for the queue to reach a terminal state, then drains both streams with try_recv, so duplicate detection has no wall-clock dependency. - The receipt-plane rotation floor came from the 1s rotate interval's nominal tick rate, but rotation is driven by the maintenance loop reaching a rotate decision, so the healthy steady state is ~40-45 in 180s and the >= 45 floor had no margin. contention_floor keeps a pinned-ring floor (a pinned ring shows ~0) with ~3x margin. - scheduling_benchmark_test.rs had no scaling at all. Its readiness gates and completion waits now scale; recv_until does not, because its duration is the measurement window rather than a timeout. The Python suite exhausted the server's connection slots late in a run (#420). Clients default to a 10-connection pool and sqlx parks an idle connection for its 10-minute idle timeout, so pools from finished tests held slots while each new fixture asked for up to 10 more; with none left, sqlx could not grow the pool and its 30s acquire timeout expired, failing whichever test came next. tests/conftest.py caps what tests ask for and guards against regression; two fixtures that returned a client instead of yielding and closing it now tear down deterministically. Against a constrained 30-connection server the pre-fix run parked 11-19 of 30 backends; the post-fix run holds 3 and passes all 312. CI gains Postgres 18 across the sharded suite and the queue-storage leg (it was already used by telemetry-validation and the Python nightly, unsystematically), and the Python matrix moves from 3.12 to 3.13 and 3.14. The abi3-py310 wheel covers the whole requires-python window from one artifact, so the legs exercise the asyncio integration where version skew lands rather than re-proving the ABI per interpreter.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughCI coverage now includes PostgreSQL 17/18 and Python 3.13/3.14. Rust tests use shared contention-aware timing helpers. Chaos tests drain queue state before validating output. Python fixtures cap pools, close clients, and detect connection leaks. ChangesCI and Test Reliability

Scale the Python worker's heartbeat staleness too
When CI contention stalls the Python helper's event loop, scaling only this Rust builder leaves the other client in the same test at the hard-coded 250 ms setting in awa-python/tests/mixed_fleet_helper.py:43-50. A live Python attempt can therefore still be rescued and emit a duplicate completion, so the nightly flake this change targets remains possible; propagate the multiplier to the helper and scale its staleness as well.

Wait for the stdout reader before declaring the stream drained
When a duplicate is emitted by the Python worker immediately before its handler returns, the database can reach the terminal state before the spawned stdout_reader task has transferred the flushed line from the OS pipe into this channel. try_recv() then reports an empty channel, and the subsequent stop()/drop path kills the helper and aborts the reader, silently missing the duplicate; use an explicit reader barrier or otherwise synchronize with the pipe reader before declaring the stream drained.

Put all client setup inside the cleanup scope. Each fixture creates a client before entering try. A setup failure then bypasses close() and can retain pooled PostgreSQL connections.

Drain Python output before aborting the reader.
stdout_lines.try_recv() can return empty while stdout_reader has not forwarded a line already written to the child stdout pipe. python_worker.stop() then aborts stdout_reader and discards that line. Kill the child, await stdout_reader to reach EOF, then drain stdout_lines and assert all buffered markers.

| //! Shared CI contention scaling for the nightly chaos and benchmark suites. | ||
| //! | ||
| //! The nightly suites run on shared GitHub runners whose CPU allocation | ||
| //! varies run to run. Three assertion shapes are sensitive to that and | ||
| //! flaked repeatedly through 2026-07 (#399, #434): | ||
| //! | ||
| //! 1. **Wall-clock waits.** A test waits N seconds for a state the | ||
| //! runtime reaches in milliseconds when it has a core to itself. | ||
| //! Scale with [`scaled_timeout`]. | ||
| //! | ||
| //! 2. **Aggressive rescue cadences.** A chaos client sets | ||
| //! `heartbeat_staleness` a few multiples above `heartbeat_interval` | ||
| //! so its own backdating triggers rescue promptly. Under contention | ||
| //! a *live* worker's heartbeat can miss that window, so the runtime | ||
| //! correctly rescues a healthy attempt — and the test sees a genuine | ||
| //! duplicate completion, which reads as a correctness failure. Scale | ||
| //! with [`scaled_staleness`]: the interval stays fast so rescue is | ||
| //! still exercised, but the staleness window gains the same margin | ||
| //! as the waits around it. | ||
| //! | ||
| //! 3. **Minimum-progress floors.** A gate asserts "at least N of these | ||
| //! happened" to catch a stalled subsystem. The floor must sit far | ||
| //! below the *observed* operating point, not just below the nominal | ||
| //! one. Scale with [`contention_floor`]. | ||
| //! | ||
| //! Scaling only ever loosens a bound, and only on CI. A local run keeps | ||
| //! the strict values, so a real regression still fails fast on a | ||
| //! developer machine. Override with `AWA_CHAOS_TIMEOUT_MULTIPLIER`. | ||

Rust stable Duration::mul_f64 panics non-finite overflow f64::parse inf documentation
💡 Result:
The Rust standard library method Duration::mul_f64 is documented to panic if the result is negative, if it overflows the Duration type, or if the provided f64 value is not finite [1][2][3][4]. This means that passing f64::INFINITY, f64::NEG_INFINITY, or f64::NAN to mul_f64 will cause a panic [1][5]. Regarding the parsing of floating-point numbers, Rust's standard f64::from_str (or the FromStr trait implementation for f64) successfully parses strings representing non-finite values, such as "inf", "infinity" (case-insensitive), and "nan" [6][7][8]. Unlike Duration::mul_f64, the f64::parse process does not treat these values as errors; it returns the corresponding f64 constant (e.g., f64::INFINITY or f64::NAN) [6][7]. In summary: - Duration::mul_f64 panics on non-finite input values because it expects a finite multiplier to produce a valid Duration [1][5]. - f64::from_str accepts "inf", "infinity", and "nan" and returns them as valid f64 values without error [6][7]. This distinction is important because if you parse a user-provided string into an f64 and then use it as a multiplier for a Duration, the resulting Duration::mul_f64 call will panic if the input was non-finite [1][5]. Developers should validate that an f64 is finite using the is_finite() method before passing it to Duration::mul_f64 if the input comes from an external source [7][8].

Reject non-finite and excessively large multipliers.
"inf" parses as f64::INFINITY, and parsed.max(1.0) preserves it. The value reaches Duration::mul_f64 through both scaling functions, where non-finite or overflowing results panic. An invalid CI override can therefore fail affected nightly tests.
Reject non-finite values and clamp finite overrides to a documented upper bound. Add tests for "inf" and an oversized finite value.

Four findings from the Codex and CodeRabbit reviews, all valid. Scale the Python helper's heartbeat staleness too (Codex P1). The mixed-fleet test runs a Rust client *and* a Python helper against one queue, and mixed_fleet_helper.py sets its own heartbeat_staleness_ms=250 against a 50ms interval. Scaling only the Rust builder left the Python worker able to have a live attempt rescued under contention, so the duplicate-completion flake this work targets stayed reachable from the other side of the same test. start_python_helper now passes the resolved multiplier down as AWA_CHAOS_TIMEOUT_MULTIPLIER and the helper scales both of its staleness windows, mirroring scaled_staleness including its refusal of non-finite and oversized values. Wait for the stdout reader before declaring the stream drained (Codex P2, CodeRabbit). Replacing the quiet window with a terminal-queue wait removed the dependency on worker timing but not on task scheduling: the helper's line travels Python -> OS pipe -> reader task -> channel, and none of those hops is ordered against the database commit, so try_recv could report Empty while a flushed duplicate was still in the pipe, and stop() would then kill the child and abort the reader. drain_stdout kills the child so the pipe reaches EOF, joins the reader, and lets the closed channel be drained to completion. The Rust side keeps try_recv, where the send happens inside perform and therefore strictly precedes the commit. Put all fixture setup inside the cleanup scope (CodeRabbit). Both fixtures constructed a client before entering try, so a failure in migrate or reset skipped close() and parked pooled connections — the exact failure mode this branch exists to fix. Reject non-finite and clamp oversized multipliers (CodeRabbit). "inf" and "nan" parse as f64 and survived max(1.0), and Duration::mul_f64 panics rather than saturating on a non-finite or overflowing result, so a typo'd override would fail the nightly it was set to rescue. Non-finite values now fall back to the environment default and finite ones clamp to 100x. Verified: mul_f64 does panic for both "inf" and 1e308. The remaining CodeRabbit comment asked for the pre-commit checks to be run; they were, and are again here.
Closes #399. Partially addresses #434 (see below).
What was wrong
Four assertion shapes in the nightly chaos and benchmark suites were calibrated on an idle machine and run on shared runners. Each failed while every invariant it exists for was intact, which is the worst kind of failure — it erodes trust in the gates that justify the TLA+ and chaos work, and it costs a rerun on most full-CI passes.
All scaling now lives in one place,
awa/tests/ci_timing.rs, with unit tests. It only ever loosens a bound, and only whenCIis set — a local run keeps the strict values, so a real regression still fails fast on a developer machine.AWA_CHAOS_TIMEOUT_MULTIPLIERoverrides the factor and is clamped to>= 1.0.1. Duplicate completions in the mixed-fleet chaos test
test_mixed_rust_and_python_workers_share_same_queuesetheartbeat_stalenessto 250ms against a 50msheartbeat_interval— a 5x margin. Under contention a live worker's heartbeat missed that window, so the runtime correctly rescued a healthy attempt and the test saw a genuine duplicate completion.This is the one worth reading twice: a margin problem that presents as a correctness bug.
scaled_stalenessgives the staleness window margin while deliberately leaving the heartbeat and rescue intervals at chaos cadence, so the rescue path is still exercised. Applied to all four chaos clients on that cadence, not just the one named in #399.2. Assert-after-drain quiet window (same test)
After all markers arrived, the test watched both completion streams for a fixed 250ms quiet window to catch duplicates. That's the race #335 fixed in
test_weight_proportionality: a duplicate arriving at 251ms was missed, and on a slow runner the window expired while work was still moving.It now waits for the queue itself to reach a terminal state — the authoritative drain signal — then drains both streams with
try_recv. Once the queue is terminal no further completion can be produced, so anything still buffered is a real duplicate. Duplicate detection no longer has any wall-clock dependency.3. Receipt-plane rotation floor
The floor was
duration_secs / 4(45 rotations in 180s), documented as "25% of the 1s rotate interval's wall-clock ticks". That model is wrong: rotation is driven by the maintenance loop reaching a rotate decision, not by the interval alone, so the healthy steady state is ~40–45 in 180s — flush against the floor. It fired on 2026-07-07 at 41 rotations with zero dead rows in every claim and closure partition.contention_floordivides by the multiplier, giving 15 on CI: ~3x margin under the observed rate, while a pinned ring — the regression the gate exists for, which shows ~0 — still fails. The floor can never reach 0 regardless of multiplier.4.
scheduling_benchmark_test.rshad no scaling at allIts
wait_for_leader/wait_for_dispatchreadiness gates and post-handler completion waits were hard 5s and 30s deadlines. They now scale.recv_untildeliberately does not — its duration is the measurement window that defines what the benchmark samples, not a timeout.#420: Python suite exhausted the server's connection slots
Late in a full run, one or two tests ERRORed at fixture setup with
pool timed out while waiting for an open connection, always ~15 minutes in, always rerun-clearable.My first hypothesis — two fixtures that
returna client instead of yielding and closing it — was wrong, and measuring said so: an instrumented full run showed backends peaking at 2. So I ran the reproduction the issue itself suggested, against amax_connections=30server, and caught the real mechanism live: 19 of 30 backends sittingidle, held by pools belonging to tests that had finished up to 4 minutes earlier.Clients default to a 10-connection pool and sqlx parks an idle connection for its 10-minute idle timeout, so each new fixture asked for up to 10 more against a server with none left. sqlx then cannot grow the pool and its 30s acquire timeout expires — which is the reported error, and why the victim is whichever test came next rather than the test at fault.
awa-python/tests/conftest.pycaps what tests ask for (an explicitmax_connectionsstill wins, sotest_migration_concurrency.pyis unaffected). The tworeturn-style fixtures are still fixed — pool lifetime shouldn't depend on GC timing — and a session guard fails the run with a named backend count if one reappears.Validation: same full suite, same constrained 30-connection server. Pre-fix parked 11–19 of 30 backends; post-fix holds 3 and passes all 312.
Version matrix
telemetry-validationand the Python nightly, in two places, unsystematically.abi3-py310wheel covers the wholerequires-pythonwindow from one artifact, so the legs exist to exercise the asyncio integration (pyo3-async-runtimes) where version skew actually lands, not to re-prove the ABI per interpreter.I verified the interpreters rather than assuming: built the abi3 wheel and ran 109 core tests on each of 3.10, 3.13 and 3.14 — all pass, all deps resolve.
One judgement call worth flagging:
pyproject.tomlnow carries per-version classifiers for 3.10–3.14, i.e. the support window, which is wider than the test matrix. That matches what the package has always claimed viarequires-pythonand what abi3 genuinely delivers. If you'd rather the classifiers track CI exactly, that's a support-window decision and I'd want it to be yours.#434
This PR covers the flake half. The remaining python-nightly failure is not a flake — it's a SIGSEGV at interpreter shutdown. Diagnosis and fix in a follow-up PR; see the comment on #434.
Checks
cargo fmt --check,clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -D warnings,ci-test-shard.sh check,ci_timing's 7 unit tests, and the affected Python suites all pass locally. The chaos and benchmark suites themselves are#[ignore]d and nightly-only, so the real proof is the next few nightlies.Summary by CodeRabbit
