The one global 20-character bound made every consumer pay an object
store's key length, even for provisions that keep no name, and a single
overflow refused the provider's whole declaration. An offer now states
its own bound (identity: {max, in} or false); unsaid, a provider told its
consumers keeps 20 and one told nothing keeps none. module check judges
every identity on the longest machine name before merge, and a provider
leaves an overflowing consumer out of its grants and composes, with the
consumer named by push, plan and status (ADR 0225).
The last report stored per node decides whether a release plan moves on,
and it was whichever arrived last. A report about a declaration the mesh
has moved past now records what it says about the machine but leaves the
account of the apply alone, so arrival order cannot undo the newer.
The controller acted only on what its events consumer handed it, so a merge
the bus skipped left modules behind with nothing said. The stream is now read
back every five minutes on a single-filter consumer, and any merge that would
still move a module after ten minutes is said and acted on.
A push outlasted the console's 30s wait and, when it sent the bus its
changed user list, the broker's reload forgot the reply it may send:
the push happened and its caller was told it did not answer. Calls now
answer in full or as running with an id, a push answers before it
sends, refused answers are recorded on their call, and 'calls' reads
them back.
A push naming one machine reached the verb without it and pushed every
machine behind (hq issue 244). The controller now refuses any argument a
verb does not declare, any it composed its command line without, and a
switch that is not true or false; a push that names no machine says first
that it is the whole mesh. Tests walk every served verb: no argument is
ever ignored, and every flag of a verb's command, read from the source, is
in its schema or accounted for. plan gains files, push behind, builds and
plans limit.
The identity provider failed every consumer for a day and status called the
mesh well (hq issue 179). The controller now follows every provider's
provisioner.failing/recovered, keeps the newest failing word per provider,
machine and consumer (migration 0065), and status, its JSON and node show
name it until it recovers. Every module that receives contributions is
granted the two events, so no manifest can forget them.
The seat now covers /etc/hostname too. The migration keeps the old name as
an alias so hosts, still assigned while machines move, holds the same seat.
Claims were compared by spelling, so the old and new module would both have
held it on one machine; they are now compared by the seat they resolve to.
The uplink's holder writes /etc/resolv.conf, so the seat that wrote it and
ADR 0220's dependency of it on the uplink have nothing left to say. The
migration deletes the store's row; nothing holds it once resolv-conf is
unassigned everywhere.
The catalogue moves /etc/resolv.conf from resolv-conf to the three uplink
modules. A rendered fact was not compared with other modules' paths, so two
modules could each write the resolver file on one machine, the last winning
every apply; a fact's path now counts as its module's.
musl takes the first reply from any listed nameserver, so a public fallback
beside the mesh's resolver answered NXDOMAIN for mesh names in every Alpine
container (hq ADR 0223). The fix is two mesh resolvers and no public one, which
needs mesh-dns-resolver held on two machines: a seat can now be replicated,
each holder recorded by 'seat <name> --add', checkClaims accepts every holder
on record and still refuses a second holder of any other mesh seat, a holder
answers its own requirement, and a roster fact gives each replicated seat's
holders, this machine first, so resolv-conf can list them. Migration 0062 keys
a holding by seat and assignment.
A named push flushed every other machine whose declaration differed from
what it was last sent (hq ADR 0083). Under an upgrade policy of `record`,
or a plan still waiting on its first machine (ADR 0218), every machine
running the module differs, so `push <one>` sent the held build to all of
them (hq issue 259).
Each send now records which build of each module it carried
(node.sent_builds, migration 0061). The cascade, and the bus holder added
to a named push, skip a machine any of whose modules would move to a
build its policy records or an open plan has not sent it, and say which
module, which build, why, and that `push <node>` sends it. A machine
whose last send was not recorded is held until it is named. The named
machine itself, a whole-mesh push and `push --behind` are unchanged.
daemon.json and docker.service belong to the docker module, which holds node-container-runtime
and now states the registry itself through ${seat:mesh-artifact-store:reach} (hq ADR 0222). The
overlay stops generating registry-trust and registry-trust-reload. A generated resource is now
held to the collision check every module is, so a second writer cannot come back through
computed code; resolution never saw what a generator declares.
The container runtime's module must state the mesh's registry to the runtime it owns, so the
controller can stop writing that into the runtime's file (hq issue 190). ${seat:<seat>:reach}
answers host:port without a binding: nothing required, granted or minted, and the address is
one the mesh already composes into every reference it built. Only mesh-artifact-store is
answered; another seat is refused by name. Unanswered in a file written into as JSON, the empty
member is dropped, so the runtime is never told to trust "".
Nothing has claimed node-dns-resolver since the mesh moved to one resolver
(hq ADR 0194); seeding never removes a row, so a migration deletes it.
resolv.conf stays the mesh's only while the network manager is told to keep
off it, which the node-uplink holder does (ADR 0117). A seat's Needs makes
that a dependency checked at assignment by the ADR 0207 mechanism (hq ADR
0220). The two-claimants test keeps its intent with a synthetic module now
that resolved-split-dns leaves the catalogue.
/etc/hosts is the file of the node-hosts-file seat's holder; the controller writes into no file
another seat's holder owns, and asks that holder if it ever needs a line there. The private
network's module stops asking for the node-names fact; every machine already asks the mesh's
one resolver for these names, and the host gives the region back at the next push.
A mesh-wide provision a machine could answer itself was bound to the local provider, with the
seat's holder and any pin consulted only for a provider on another machine. With every machine
still running its own resolver, each bound its resolver configuration to itself while the mesh's
one resolver was held and pinned elsewhere.
The catalogue moves daemon.json's live-restore and the reload from resolv-conf to the docker
module, so no module writes another software's configuration. The test composes docker beside
the resolver modules and refuses resolv-conf writing the runtime's file.
A registered replay asked now outranked newer asks of its module, and a plan
took any later outcome as its answer. A replay is now refused while the module
is asked anywhere, a plan module asked under an id is answered by that id
alone, and a rebuild of a commit asks what the module follows. An ask handed
back after a restart no longer reads as dead; a cancel that meets a start is
withdrawn; pause holds for an ask fetched as it lands; kill removes containers
before and after the build ends and says whether its outcome went out; a
holder may say only its own machine is paused.
The holder's verbs were served and found by nothing; it now answers discovery
with its machine's four, as a runtime announces a seat's verb, so the console
finds <node>/node-build-agent.kill. A cancel publishes no outcome, so a build
waited for also looks at the cancelled set. A plan that stopped at its first
machine is retried by sending that machine the module again, unless a newer
plan holds it.
Nothing showed what waited for a build machine, and an ask could not be
dropped without leaving the plan that made it waiting for ever. New verbs:
queue, cancel, clear, rebuild, replay, kill, pause, resume, and plans retry.
Every ask a person drops is recorded failed through the same take-in as a
failed build; a plan keeps the id it asked each module under and matches
its outcome by it. replay is a dry run unless registered, and registering
an older commit than one registered since needs --older (hq issue 207).
A plan waiting on a seat paused on every holder says so and is not late;
a failed plan can be retried, and a rebuild joins the plan holding the
module instead of running beside it.
A queued ask could only be waited out and a running build only ended by
stopping the machine, which redelivered it elsewhere. The holder now serves
current, kill, pause and resume on its own machine's subjects; a kill ends
the build's process group and labelled containers and settles the ask as
failed, killed by hand; pause is kept in the workspace across a restart and
said on the bus. The controller writes cancelled ids to a cancelled set the
holder reads on taking an ask, closing the race a delete alone leaves.
Grants first could hold back the very declaration that lets the controller
issue them. The holder now goes first, then buckets and memberships, then
the rest; a membership that fails holds back only its own machine, and an
announcement whose send stopped at its grants is asked again. Whether the
holder must go first is read from a digest of the user list it was last
sent, not its whole declaration. Migration renumbered to 0058.
A merge planned without looking at open plans, so two plans worked the
same modules and a stuck plan stayed open for ever. The newer plan folds
in what older plans of the same repository and branch had not built or
sent, and closes them as superseded. A person can close a stuck plan by
id with `plans close <id>`.
A plan sent every machine running a module at once, ignoring the module's
upgrade policy. Unless the policy says together, the first machine by name
is sent, recorded in the plan, and the rest follow only once its report
after the send says it applied; a failed first machine stops the plan.
The store's garbage-collect marks only from manifests, and archives were
published as bare blobs, so the first real collection would delete every
archive the mesh keeps. PublishArchive now puts a deterministic OCI holder
manifest (empty config, one layer) beside each archive; the sweep holds every
kept archive before it lets anything go, which backfills existing bare blobs,
and lets go of an archive holder-first. A forgotten module no longer keeps its
five recent builds (ADR 0189). `collection [--json]` reports kept archives
held/unheld and what may be let go, so the dry run can be lifted on evidence.
The postgres-backed test still expected a module that declares no broker
secret to be a bus user, and failed on main since #270; it skips without a
database, so the change's own run did not see it.
A consumer made with the server's default replays everything a stream that
keeps history holds: the controller's EVENTS consumer, re-made that way,
replayed a week of merges and builds one at a time and held every new one
behind them. FromNow makes it start at the end; broker consumer-reset
re-makes a stuck one from now, refusing a work queue. hq issue 244.
ADR 0214 / to-be 43: a node seat whose holder keeps nightly restore points of what every module on
the machine declares. A contribution of kind backup may name its module's own directories, filled
per module when placed. The catalogue check refuses a store provider that contributes no backup;
parsing does not, so the providers already running stay readable.
A dry run of an unreviewed branch was heard by the daemon like any build, registered, and its
definition reached a machine (novox/hq issue 240). The mark now travels with the build and the
daemon records, registers and plans nothing for it.
Every assigned module was composed as a bus user, though only one declaring
a broker secret can ever be issued an account; the rest were named on every
status, plan and push as credentials never minted (137 now), burying the
real gaps. Their durable consumers are now derived from what the runtime
carries, so nothing they hear changes. The composed file is unchanged:
those users had no password and were already left out. Fixes hq issue 195.
- mesh-dns-resolver: a mesh seat delivering wildcard-resolution, so every node's resolver
configuration resolves to its one holder; node-dns-resolver kept until nothing claims it.
- ${bound:<provision>:address}: the providing machine's private address, for the one consumer
that cannot use a name — a machine's resolver configuration.
- zone: a module declares the zone it answers and the listen that answers it; the controller
settles it per node, refuses duplicates and shadowing, and hands the resolver .Zones to forward.
- node-hosts-file: a node seat whose holder owns /etc/hosts, with entries/add/remove.
The resolver tests follow the catalogue: no runtime dns (containers copy the machine's resolvers),
live-restore held by resolv-conf, resolv.conf naming the resolver by address then a public one.
Each contribution grain was a manifest field and a renderer of its own; a module now contributes
to any seat with a kind that seat receives, the holder places it with
${contribution:<seat>:<kind>}, and the contribution depends on the seat. node-hotkeys is the
first new seat to receive (triggers); the display session receives window-manager config.
A module that needs code after waking wrote into the service manager's sleep units; it now
contributes shell code for a named moment, which derives a dependency on node-power.
The environment and shell contributions were written nowhere on a node without their holder;
they now derive a dependency on node-environment, node-login-shell or node-display-server, met
and refused as ADR 0207's are. Two modules declaring one package, path or unit made the node
unresolvable after the assignment was recorded; that is refused first now, because no later
assignment can complete it.
status reported no unmet dependency on any node once systemd, pacman and docker
were assigned to all four (to-be 42), which is the condition ADR 0207 set for the
switch. A dependency no catalogue module could meet stays a report before and
after the switch, as assign already said it: there is no remedy to name.
The host only ever adds groups, so the container runtime's module can put the
operator in its group while the shell's module sets the same account's shell.
Seed the eleven node seats with the verbs they start with. A provision may
have the machine's reach: a requirement for it resolves only to a provider
in the node's own set, is never pulled in, and is refused naming who could.
A shell contribution's for gains xinitrc and xresources, placed only by the
holder of node-display-server.
Seed node-package-manager and node-container-runtime. Derive each module's
dependencies from its declared service, package and container resources;
judge them over the node's whole set, exempting the foundation. Refuse at
assign (several modules may go on as one act) and at unassign of the last
holder; report at composition in status, behind one switch.
