…pawn The one-shot targets trip their own quiet-host gates: bench-chromium-request-all and bench-chromium-fault run build, setup and image work seconds before a gate that reads a 1-minute load average, so a cold invocation refuses because of its own prerequisite wake and a retry repeats the phony prerequisites. reqbench.sh guard_quiet now takes SETTLE_WAIT_SECS: 0 (the default) keeps the fail-fast refusal, a positive value re-samples about every 5s until the deadline and then refuses with the last sample. cmd_all defaults it to 120 for its own chain; an explicit value wins. hostcdp.sh gets the same knob around its tighter 1.0 gate (plus a LOADAVG_FILE override so the gate is testable against a fixture, matching reqbench.sh), and faultbench.py's host_precheck settles the MAX_START_LOAD check the same way while still refusing a foreign firecracker immediately. faultbench.py also runs host_precheck before anything with side effects: hostserver.py was started before the precheck and outside the teardown try/finally, so a refusal leaked the server, and require_fresh_out_dir plus the mkdirs ran even earlier, so the retry was refused for the directory the refused run itself dirtied. Order is now precheck, cell/tag validation, out-dir freshness, then the spawn. Fixes the first two items of #814. The third item there (bench.sh's unlocked nr_hugepages shrink racing the pool flock reqbench/setup-hugepages take) is a separate mutator and is not touched here. Tests, each watched failing on the unfixed tree first: - test_reqbench.ReqbenchShell.test_quiet_guard_settles_within_the_opt_in_window: 'refused:3' != 'settled' (busy loadavg fixture rewritten quiet by a helper after 2s; unfixed guard refused on the first sample) - test_reqbench.ReqbenchShell.test_quiet_guard_still_refuses_when_the_settle_window_elapses: 'still busy after 1s settle wait' not found in stderr - test_reqbench.ReqbenchShell.test_all_gives_its_own_chain_a_settle_default: 'settle=120' not found in 'settle=<unset>' - test_reqbench.HostCdpQuietGate.test_the_gate_settles_with_the_same_knob: 'settling' not found in stderr (unfixed script read the real /proc/loadavg, load 28, and refused) - test_faultbench.QuietGate.test_the_start_load_check_settles_within_the_settle_window: SystemExit '1-minute load average is 9.90' on the first sample - test_faultbench.QuietGate.test_a_busy_refusal_spawns_nothing_and_keeps_the_out_dir_fresh: 'load average' not found in 'no cell has a golden snapshot' (main had already spawned the recorded hostserver Popen and dirtied --out) All six pass with the fix. Full suites: python3 -m unittest test_reqbench, 189 tests, failures=18 errors=4, failure names identical to the clean-main baseline (185 tests, failures=18 errors=4; environment-bound teardown classes, no KVM on this box); python3 -m unittest test_faultbench, 25 tests, OK.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe benchmark harnesses now validate host load and Firecracker activity before execution. They support bounded settling periods, configurable load-average sources, fail-closed input validation, and expanded regression coverage. ChangesHost settling controls
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR adds opt-in settle windows to benchmark host-load gates, but valid decimal values with leading zeroes can currently be rejected or interpreted incorrectly by the shell scripts, causing the gate to fail or wait for the wrong duration; merge should wait for decimal-safe parsing and regression coverage.

…le windows hostcdp.sh's quiet_sample runs as an until condition, where set -e is suppressed. A missing, unreadable, or empty LOADAVG_FILE made cut fail silently, la came back empty, awk read the empty string as 0, and the gate passed without evaluating host load. quiet_sample now requires a numeric first field and exits 2 otherwise, before the ALLOW_BUSY early return. faultbench.py's settle_wait_secs accepted SETTLE_WAIT_SECS=nan or inf: float() parses both, nan also slips the value < 0 check, and either makes the settle deadline never expire, so host_precheck resamples forever on a busy host. The knob now requires math.isfinite. Red watched failing before the fix: - test_reqbench.HostCdpQuietGate.test_an_unreadable_loadavg_file_fails_closed: "AssertionError: 7 != 2 : gate did not fail closed" with stderr showing "starting host container", for both the missing and empty fixtures. - test_faultbench.QuietGate.test_a_non_finite_settle_window_is_rejected: "AssertionError: SystemExit not raised" for nan, inf, and Infinity. Green after: test_faultbench 26 tests OK; test_reqbench 190 tests with the same 22 pre-existing environment failures as the stash-clean baseline (failure names diffed identical).

Parse SETTLE_WAIT_SECS as decimal after validation.
Both shell harnesses accept 08 as a whole number, then pass it to Bash arithmetic. Bash treats it as invalid octal. It also interprets 010 as eight, not ten. Parse with 10# before calculating the deadline, and add leading-zero regression cases.

In `@bench/chromium/hostcdp.sh` at line 49, Parse validated SETTLE_WAIT_SECS as
base-10 using 10# before computing deadline in bench/chromium/hostcdp.sh:49, and
apply the same conversion to settle in bench/chromium/reqbench.sh:437-446. Add
leading-zero quiet-gate regression cases using a value such as 08 in

The one-shot targets trip their own quiet-host gates: bench-chromium-request-all
and bench-chromium-fault run build, setup and image work seconds before a gate
that reads a 1-minute load average, so a cold invocation refuses because of its
own prerequisite wake and a retry repeats the phony prerequisites.
reqbench.sh guard_quiet now takes SETTLE_WAIT_SECS: 0 (the default) keeps the
fail-fast refusal, a positive value re-samples about every 5s until the deadline
and then refuses with the last sample. cmd_all defaults it to 120 for its own
chain; an explicit value wins. hostcdp.sh gets the same knob around its tighter
1.0 gate (plus a LOADAVG_FILE override so the gate is testable against a
fixture, matching reqbench.sh), and faultbench.py's host_precheck settles the
MAX_START_LOAD check the same way while still refusing a foreign firecracker
immediately.
faultbench.py also runs host_precheck before anything with side effects:
hostserver.py was started before the precheck and outside the teardown
try/finally, so a refusal leaked the server, and require_fresh_out_dir plus the
mkdirs ran even earlier, so the retry was refused for the directory the refused
run itself dirtied. Order is now precheck, cell/tag validation, out-dir
freshness, then the spawn.
Fixes the first two items of #814. The third item there (bench.sh's unlocked
nr_hugepages shrink racing the pool flock reqbench/setup-hugepages take) is a
separate mutator and is not touched here.
Tests, each watched failing on the unfixed tree first:
'refused:3' != 'settled' (busy loadavg fixture rewritten quiet by a helper
after 2s; unfixed guard refused on the first sample)
'still busy after 1s settle wait' not found in stderr
'settle=120' not found in 'settle='
'settling' not found in stderr (unfixed script read the real /proc/loadavg,
load 28, and refused)
SystemExit '1-minute load average is 9.90' on the first sample
'load average' not found in 'no cell has a golden snapshot' (main had already
spawned the recorded hostserver Popen and dirtied --out)
All six pass with the fix. Full suites: python3 -m unittest test_reqbench, 189
tests, failures=18 errors=4, failure names identical to the clean-main baseline
(185 tests, failures=18 errors=4; environment-bound teardown classes, no KVM on
this box); python3 -m unittest test_faultbench, 25 tests, OK.
