gates / gates (push) Failing after 7s
The ticker survives as the EVALUATION interval only. A tier is DUE when its
newest archive that has settled for `settle` (default 24h) has not been proven:
daily tier -> proved daily on yesterday's archive, weekly tier -> weekly on its
own, newborn -> UNKNOWN.
The trap avoided: the literal reading ("newest archive is >= 24h old") is NEVER
true on a daily tier, so it silently switches restore-testing off where it
matters most. Red-proved at 0 runs over 5 simulated days.
- state records WHICH archive was proven; legacy files keep their time and yield
no proven archive (each tier due once after the upgrade, deliberately)
- two knobs replace one: restore_test_eval_interval_seconds (6h, measured) and
restore_test_settle_seconds (24h). The old cadence key keeps its DISABLE
meaning verbatim and now seeds the settle lag, with a start-up WARN.
- due-check runs BEFORE the heavy-op gate (a frequent poll must not make a
starting backup record a failure, F-A1)
- candidate picker skips implausible archives (a phantom would be due forever)
- new read-only --selftest=restore-test-due prints the verdict + its cost

|
|
// ── WHAT WAS WRONG ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
|
|
//
|
|
// The trigger was `time.NewTicker(cadence)` started at daemon start, and the tier was chosen by
|
|
// oldest-proven rotation. Its phase was therefore the PROCESS'S UPTIME: agent deploys are routine,
|
|
// so the test drifted to an arbitrary time of day every week; a fresh archive could sit unproven
|
|
// while an older one was re-tested; and a weekly tier was tested on the same rhythm as a daily one,
|
|
// sometimes twice on the same archive.
|
|
//
|
|
// ── THE RULE, AND THE TRAP IN ITS OBVIOUS FORM ───────────────────────────────────────────────
|
|
//
|
|
// R-86's ask reads "test a tier ~24 h after its own newest archive". Implemented literally —
|
|
// *"due when the newest archive is at least `settle` old"* — a DAILY tier is NEVER due: a new
|
|
// archive lands every day, so the newest archive's age resets to zero long before it reaches 24 h.
|
|
// The naive rule silently switches restore-testing off for the tier that matters most, and it is
|
|
// the version a reasonable person would write. It has a red-proof of its own
|
|
// (TestDue_NaiveNewestArchiveAgeRuleNeverFiresOnADailyTier).
|
|
//
|
|
// The rule implemented here:
|
|
//
|
|
// Let A = the newest archive on this tier that is at least `settle` old.
|
|
// The tier is DUE when A exists and A HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN PROVEN.
|
|
//
|
|
// daily tier → A is yesterday's archive; a new one settles each day → proved once per day
|
|
// weekly tier → A is last week's until the next settles → proved once per week
|
|
// newborn tier → A does not exist → UNKNOWN, never a fault
|
|
//
|
|
// Per-archive due-ness IS the pacing: one test per archive generation and no more. There is
|
|
// deliberately no second rate limiter on top of it (§8.4) — two independent pacing mechanisms
|
|
// produce a cadence nobody can predict from either.
|
|
//
|
|
// ── WHAT DID NOT CHANGE ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
|
|
//
|
|
// The one-heavy-operation gate, the success-only proof credit, the oldest-proven ordering (now the
|
|
// tie-break between two DUE tiers), the restore-test itself, its journal and its scratch band. Only
|
|
// the trigger changed.
|
|
|
|
