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).
The GWC-04 remediation decoupled the read loop from event backpressure by
staging events into an unbounded channel, so its TryWrite always succeeded and
the only overflow fault was a single timed WriteAsync exceeding
EventChannelFullModeTimeout. A consumer draining slower than the worker
produces — each individual write still completing inside the window — therefore
grew gateway memory without bound, without a fault, and without a metric: the
queue-depth gauge counted only the bounded consumer channel, so staged events
were invisible.
Bound _eventStaging at 2 x EventChannelCapacity (Wait, single reader/writer, no
synchronous continuations). A rejected staging TryWrite is the sustained
slow-drain signal and faults the client ProtocolViolation with
QueueOverflow("worker-event-staging"), guarded by IsTerminalState() so a
completed channel during shutdown stays a silent drop. SetFaulted is
non-blocking, so the read loop still never awaits behind events. The timed-write
fault is unchanged and still catches the full-stall case earlier.
Move the queue-depth increment from EnqueueWorkerEventAsync to StageWorkerEvent
so the single counter reports total undelivered events (staged + queued); the
decrement at consumer read was already correct. No new configuration key: the
bound is derived, and gateway-side buffering per session is now at most
3 x MxGateway:Events:QueueCapacity. Coordination with still-open GWC-21
(EventChannelFullModeTimeout configurability) remains open and was not blocked
on.
Tests: StagingChannelOverflowFaultsWorkerWithoutWaitingForFullModeTimeout (5-min
full-mode timeout so only the staging bound can fire; asserts an interleaved
command reply still completes) and WorkerEventQueueDepthGaugeCountsStagedEvents.
Docs updated in the same change: GatewayProcessDesign, MxAccessWorkerInstanceDesign,
GatewayConfiguration, Metrics. GWC-24 flipped to Done in both trackers.
TST-11: single-source the .NET-side version in src/Directory.Build.props so
Server/Worker/Contracts/tests stamp 0.1.2 (was the SDK default 1.0.0) and
InformationalVersion carries the git short SHA (0.1.2+<sha>) for support
correlation; the git query is guarded (ContinueOnError) so a build outside a
git checkout still succeeds. Verified: Server assembly stamps 0.1.2+579282f,
build clean. Kept at 0.1.2 (matches Contracts + aligned Python/Rust/Go
clients); Java leads at 0.2.0 post JDK-17 retarget. Convergence to a single
0.2.0 cadence left as a release decision, not forced here.
WRK-15 (docs-only, no x86 worker build needed): correct the STA thread name in
docs/WorkerSta.md + docs/MxAccessWorkerInstanceDesign.md to the actual
MxGateway.Worker.STA (was the FQ ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Worker.STA), and fix the
stale heartbeat-counter note - CaptureHeartbeat now populates event queue depth
(eventQueue.Count) and sequence (LastEventSequence) from the live queue.

A long legitimate ReadBulk pumped Windows messages without refreshing
LastStaActivityUtc, so the watchdog false-positived StaHung past
HeartbeatStuckCeiling and then silently dropped every reply. PumpPendingMessages()
now calls MarkActivity() after pumping; a genuinely stuck STA (no pumping)
still accrues staleness and faults correctly. No MXAccess parity change.
archreview: WRK-01 (P0). Verified on the Windows host (x86): worker builds
clean, StaRuntimeTests + WorkerPipeSessionTests 33/33 pass.
Apply the ZB.MOM.WW. prefix to all gateway-side projects, folders,
.csproj/.sln contents, C# namespaces, using directives, generated proto
C# (csharp_namespace + checked-in generated files), InternalsVisibleTo
attributes, project-name string literals (LoadProject, .sln lookups,
worker exe paths, staticwebassets manifest), and the install/script/doc
references that point at any of the above. Migrate the solution from
.sln to .slnx via `dotnet sln migrate` and delete the old file.
External-runtime identifiers are intentionally NOT prefixed so external
configuration keeps working:
- GatewayMetrics.cs MeterName ("MxGateway.Server")
- DashboardAuthenticationDefaults Scheme/Policy ("MxGateway.Dashboard")
- GatewayRequestLoggingMiddleware logger category ("MxGateway.Request")
- StaRuntime thread name ("MxGateway.Worker.STA")
- appsettings.json root section "MxGateway" + env-var prefix
MxGateway__... and secret-name MxGateway:ApiKeyPepper
- C:\ProgramData\MxGateway\ data dir paths
Also fixes two tests that were not rename-related but became visible
while validating the rename:
- WorkerLiveMxAccessSmokeTests.ShutDownAsync: cancellation that the
gateway service correctly maps to RpcException(Cancelled) per gRPC
convention was being misclassified as a stream fault. Added a sibling
catch on RpcException with StatusCode.Cancelled.
- IntegrationTestEnvironment.ResolveRepositoryRoot: extracted IsRepositoryRoot
and made it accept either a .git marker OR a .sln/.slnx next to src/
so the worker-exe walker works in non-git working copies.
clients/proto/proto-inputs.json's protoRoot updated to point at
src/ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Contracts/Protos.
Verified by `dotnet build` and a full `dotnet test` of the .slnx with
MXGATEWAY_RUN_LIVE_{MXACCESS,LDAP,GALAXY}_TESTS=1:
Tests: 472/472 pass
Worker.Tests: 280/280 pass (4 dev-rig [Fact(Skip=...)] skipped)
IntegrationTests: 18/18 pass
