From 68a7c79668f90b0b4e083f65debbe161690114ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: autonomic-bot Date: Sat, 30 May 2026 21:30:25 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?fix(2):=20ghost=20F2-14b=20=E2=80=94=20harness?= =?UTF-8?q?=20BACKUP=5FVERIFY=20hook=20+=20retry;=20close=20the=20backup-c?= =?UTF-8?q?apture=20race?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Root cause (instrumented, DECISIONS 2026-05-30): a DB recipe dumps its data in a backupbot pre-hook, but if the DB container cycles mid-dump (intermittent on the loaded CI node — full5/6/7 RED, full8 green; NOT OOM/NOT healthcheck) the dump is truncated/absent and restic snapshots an empty path — abra app backup 'succeeds' yet a later restore silently loses the data (ghost ci_marker). Fix (additive, recipe-scoped via meta like READY_PROBE): recipe_meta may define BACKUP_VERIFY(domain) -> bool, a READ-ONLY post-backup integrity probe. When it returns False the harness re-runs the whole backup (fresh snapshot, re-stabilised db) up to 3x. Recipes without the hook are unaffected. ghost's BACKUP_VERIFY confirms /var/lib/mysql/backup.sql.gz is a valid non-empty gzip. Weakens no assertion — it only retries a flaky CAPTURE so P4 restore is RELIABLY exercised, not luck-dependent.
