followKept went on composing every kept key, and the config consumer every
touched node, after the controller was told to stop. Both now check the stop
before each key and each node; the writes of an unfinished batch are refused
at once, so the next controller takes them.

jschoubben 31a2bcdb3c Read each resolved config key once when the consumer is made, so values set before this release reach the kept compositions (issue 1945, ADR 0545, review 3)
The config consumer delivered new writes only, and mesh-config never writes an
unchanged value again: g14's mesh-build-go capacity of 2, set before this
release, would never reach its kept compositions carrying 0. A newly made
durable now reads each key's last value once, through the same gather,
per-write lock and acknowledgement; its deliver policy is set before its first
delivery. Acknowledgements are synchronous and sent past the stop, and one the
bus refuses is said by its key.

jschoubben e40b1e70db Follow config from a durable consumer, compose again only what changed since, and hold the node only for a write (issue 1945, ADR 0545, review)
The start composed every kept composition of every module on every node, each a
whole node composed in memory under the node's lock: 10 to 50 minutes at a
start, holding take-ins back. Now the writes of mesh-config_resolved are read
from the durable consumer mesh-controller-config-follow, acknowledged once the
change is composed, so a restart composes again only what was written since
the last change handled, and a first start nothing it did not hear. The node's
lock is taken for each write alone. A consumer that cannot be made or read
raises config-not-followed and is tried again a minute later, cleared once it
reads. The controller's account is granted that consumer's acknowledgements
where mesh-config serves, as its verb is.

jschoubben 81e335e42d Say why a node with no compositions answers none to compose again (ADR 0545, the empty-on-error rule) 2026-10-25 18:15:22 +01:00
jschoubben 2407bfb9ff Compose kept compositions again when a module's config changes (issue 1945, ADR 0545)
The controller composed a module only at the fingerprint it is registered at,
so each of the up to five compositions kept for going back carried the config
of the moment it was made: a want back to an earlier mesh-build-go on g14 put
its capacity back to 0. Nothing composed a node when mesh-config's resolved
values changed, either.

Now a write of mesh-config_resolved (<node>.<module>.<key>), heard from that
bucket's watch and gathered for a second, drops the controller's 5 s reading
of the values, composes the node, and composes every kept fingerprint of the
touched modules on that node again from its own build's manifest with today's
inputs, writing only the compositions whose digest differs. A starting
controller does it once for every node, for a change no controller heard.
The two replaced-controller tests are one table test with the kept cases.
