Moodle#0 of run 33445831564 was cancelled by the 355-minute job cap with almost no
artifacts. The cap did not end a deploy; it reaped a zombie.
00_one.sh wrapped `timeout` around `sudo`, so the guard ran as the unprivileged
runner and the payload as root. An unprivileged SIGKILL cannot reach a root process,
and the same holds for distros.sh's own `timeout -k` one level up. Probed both
shapes: the payload lands in a pgid the outer governor never addresses either way, so
--foreground would not have helped -- the privilege wall is what carries.
The log shows the consequence directly. The governor fired on schedule:
06:18:27.884 distros.sh: line 103: 15914 Killed timeout -k 60 "${remaining}s" "$@"
06:18:27.894 [ERROR] Run failed for distro=ubuntu: rc=137 after 20460s
and then ansible output kept arriving in the same tee'd log -- a TASK at 06:18:27.929,
another at 06:26:00.189, elapsed still advancing -- until
`##[error]The operation was canceled.` The orphan held the step's pipe open, so tee
never saw EOF and the step never returned.
954b9f1ae6 added the TERM trap precisely so a timeout kill would still collect
diagnostics, and its reasoning ("GNU timeout signals the whole process group") is
correct. It simply never gets signalled on the swarm path, because sudo stands
between. That is why this cell carries only inventory- and role-runtimes- while its
compose twin also has rescue-diagnostics- and playwright-. This completes that fix
rather than replacing it.
The ladder was also inverted: INFINITO_CI_DISTRO_BUDGET_SECONDS=20400 (340 min)
against INFINITO_SWARM_STEP_TIMEOUT_MINUTES=350, with default.env:97 asserting the
order as if correct. For the trap to run, the step guard must fire BEFORE the sweep
governor. Rather than re-tune two constants that start their clocks at different
points -- matrix start trails drill start by 1m49s to 2m04s, measured -- 00_one.sh now
derives its ceiling from the governor's deadline minus a teardown reserve, and keeps
its own configured value when that is smaller.
Not fixed here, and it must be said: Moodle#0 does not fit on a hosted runner at all.
Its pass-2 pacing tracks pass-1 within 5%, putting the pass end at roughly 362 minutes
after job start, past both the 355 cap and GitHub's own 360 ceiling. Raising the cap
would be masking and is arithmetically impossible anyway. What this buys is an honest
red cell at ~323 minutes WITH its diagnostics, instead of a silent cancellation with
none.
