WRK-21 — DrainEvents was bounded by event count only, so a byte-heavy queue
(large string/array MxValues) built a reply above the negotiated frame maximum:
the writer rejected the frame, the exception unwound the session, and the events
already dequeued were destroyed. The drain is now byte-budgeted inside the queue
lock, so an event is dequeued only once it is known to fit and one that does not
stays at the head. Truncation is reported through the reply's existing
DiagnosticMessage (no contract change); callers drain until an empty reply. Both
reply-write seams — the control-command path and ProcessCommandAsync — now catch
MessageTooLarge and answer the correlation with an InvalidRequest reply instead
of unwinding or faulting the session. Satisfies IPC-23 R1-R3.
WRK-28 — the 10,000 drain ceiling moves to GatewayContractInfo
.MaxDrainEventsPerCommand, referenced by both the gateway request validator and
the worker clamp, replacing a comment-only sync contract. C# const only; no
.proto change.
WRK-23 — WorkerFrameWriter now peek-stamps, validates, then commits the sequence
counter immediately before the stream write, so a per-frame rejection leaves no
phantom gap on the wire.
IPC-30 — an oversized event frame stays session-fatal (it is undeliverable end to
end and neither dropping nor synthesizing a replacement is allowed), but the
death is structured: the event's identity and sizes are logged (never its value),
a WorkerFault with category PROTOCOL_VIOLATION and command method EventDrain is
written, then the session exits as before.
Docs updated in the same change: MxAccessWorkerInstanceDesign.md (drain byte cap,
truncation contract, oversized-head behavior, oversized-event policy, no control
reply is session-fatal on size), WorkerFrameProtocol.md (reply pre-sizing,
non-fatal reply-size rule, oversized-event policy, rejected frames do not consume
sequence numbers), gateway.md (DrainEvents two-axis bound).
Surfaced during TST-25 acceptance verification: all CI runs on one shared
gitea-runner (maxParallel=1, co-located 10.100.0.35) interleaved with
dohertj2/lmxopcua, and Gitea 1.26 has no run cancel/delete API, so queue
latency is unbounded under cross-repo contention and the runner is a single
point of failure. Design: add a second/labelled runner; document the no-cancel
reality and the run-windev-ci.sh queue-bypass. Low/P2. Roll-ups updated.
Operator bring-up complete and the SSH-driven Windows/x86 CI tier passed
green end-to-end under Gitea Actions run #37: the Linux runner SSHed windev,
checked out the SHA in the isolated C:\build\mxaccessgw-ci clone under lock,
built the x86 Worker and ran Worker.Tests (exit 0); nightly-windev correctly
skipped on the push event. Flip TST-25/TST-26 status rows to Done and record
the bring-up + green-run evidence in the change log.
The `windows`/`live-mxaccess` CI jobs were removed in abb0930 because Gitea
act_runner host-mode on Windows is broken and a runs-on gate with no runner
wedges the queue. This left the entire x86/net48 Worker + Worker.Tests tier
(and the live-MXAccess smoke) unguarded by CI.
Restore it without a native Windows runner: Linux jobs on ubuntu-latest (which
always schedule) SSH to windev (10.100.0.48), fetch+checkout the SHA under test
in an isolated clone C:\build\mxaccessgw-ci, run the x86 build/tests there, and
propagate the remote exit code back — so a Worker regression turns the job red
and an unreachable host fails loud (never stuck).
- scripts/ci/run-windev-ci.sh: Linux driver (key/known-hosts, UTF-16LE base64
EncodedCommand bootstrap, ssh, exit-code passthrough).
- scripts/ci/windev-worker-ci.ps1: windev stage — worktree lock, re-fetch/
checkout under lock, build|test|live modes; PS 5.1-safe, checks $LASTEXITCODE.
- scripts/ci/windev.known_hosts: pinned host keys for StrictHostKeyChecking.
- scripts/ci/README.md: operator bring-up + acceptance checklist.
- ci.yml: windows-x86 (per-push `test`) + nightly-windev (scheduled `live` +
on-failure Gitea issue); drop the removal note; fix header/cron comments.
TST-26 (same commit, by rule): correct docs/scripts that still describe the
removed jobs — GatewayTesting.md, Contracts.md, check-codegen.ps1 — and
reattribute the Generated/-commit guard (primary = check-codegen diff in the
portable job; secondary = windows-x86 net48 compile).
Mechanism hand-verified on windev: build->0, bogus-SHA->nonzero (lock released),
test->356 passed/0 failed in ~50s, ssh exit-code propagation confirmed. Merge
requires operator bring-up first (dedicated ci@ key + Gitea secrets) or the
per-push job is red every push — see scripts/ci/README.md.
Six-domain re-review at the P2 merge (4f5371f): all prior Done claims
verified (none false, 10 partial), 47 new findings (1 High, 14 Medium),
with per-finding design/implementation plans and a new tracking register.
