From 2e8bc1a61c97981d1a873b7091c994678d7b9350 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "google-labs-jules[bot]" <161369871+google-labs-jules[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sat, 21 Feb 2026 05:10:39 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix(scheduler): resolve relay health and publisher race conditions Executed the weekly race-condition-agent task. - Fixed WebSocket resource leak in `src/relay-health.mjs` by explicitly closing sockets on timeout. - Fixed unhandled promise rejection in `src/lock-publisher.mjs` by attaching catch handlers to publish promises. - Generated `reports/race-condition/weekly-race-condition-report-2026-02-21.md`. - Updated `task-logs/weekly/` with completion log.

Resource Leak in Relay Health Probes (Critical) +**File:** `src/relay-health.mjs` +**Description:** The `probeWebSocketReachability` and `probePublishRead` functions wrapped a `new Promise` (containing WebSocket logic) with `withTimeout`. However, the WebSocket instance was created inside the promise executor, and there was no mechanism to close it if the `withTimeout` race was won by the timeout. +**Impact:** If a relay connection hung, `withTimeout` would throw, but the underlying WebSocket connection attempt would continue in the background. This leads to a leak of WebSocket connections and file descriptors, which is critical for a long-running scheduler. +**Likelihood:** High (network timeouts are common). + +### 2. Unhandled Promise Rejection in Lock Publisher (High) +**File:** `src/lock-publisher.mjs` +**Description:** `publishToRelays` uses `Promise.allSettled` on an array of promises wrapped with `withTimeout`. If `withTimeout` rejects (due to timeout), the original `publishPromise` (from `nostr-tools`) continues running. If that original promise subsequently rejects (e.g., network error), that rejection is unhandled because the parent promise (`Promise.allSettled`'s element) has already settled. +**Impact:** Unhandled promise rejections can crash the Node.js process or cause instability. +**Likelihood:** Medium (requires a publish to fail *after* the timeout duration). + +### 3. Potential Scheduler Overlap (Low/Acceptable) +**File:** `src/services/memory/scheduler.js` +**Description:** `startFixedIntervalJob` uses `setInterval` without waiting for the previous job to complete. This allows overlap if a job takes longer than its interval. +**Assessment:** The jobs using this pattern (`consolidateObservations`, `pruningCycle`) have very long intervals (1 hour, 1 day) and use locking (`lockProvider`). The lock provider correctly prevents concurrent execution (either by skipping or waiting). This behavior is deemed acceptable for now. + +## Fixes Implemented + +### Fix 1: WebSocket Cleanup +Modified `src/relay-health.mjs` to ensure the WebSocket is closed if the probe times out. +- **Approach:** Wrapped the probe logic in a `try...catch` block. If `withTimeout` throws (timeout), the `catch` block explicitly calls `ws.close()` if `ws` exists. + +### Fix 2: Suppress Unhandled Rejections +Modified `src/lock-publisher.mjs` to attach a no-op `.catch()` handler to the inner publish promises. +- **Approach:** `publishPromise.catch(() => {})` ensures that any late rejection is strictly handled, preventing process crashes, while `withTimeout` still governs the control flow. + +## Verification +- **Static Analysis:** Verified that the new code paths correctly handle the timeout/error scenarios. +- **Lint:** `npm run lint` will be run to ensure no syntax errors. + +## Next Steps +- Monitor relay health logs to ensure no degradation in probe reliability. +- Consider `AbortSignal` integration if `nostr-tools` updates to support it for cleaner cancellation. diff --git a/src/context/CONTEXT_2026-02-21_race-condition.md b/src/context/CONTEXT_2026-02-21_race-condition.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..3e956ae --- /dev/null +++ b/src/context/CONTEXT_2026-02-21_race-condition.md @@ -0,0 +1,20 @@ +# Race Condition Context - 2026-02-21 + +## Overview +This run focused on identifying and fixing race conditions in background services, specifically related to `nostr-tools` interactions and WebSocket resource management. + +## Goals +- Identify resource leaks in long-running processes (scheduler/relays). +- Prevent unhandled promise rejections that could destabilize the application. + +## Constraints +- Must not introduce new dependencies. +- Must preserve existing retry logic and health check behavior. + +## Assumptions +- `nostr-tools` implementation of `pool.publish` does not support `AbortSignal` for cancellation. +- WebSocket connections in `relay-health.mjs` are the primary source of file descriptor leaks if not closed on timeout. + +## Changes +- `src/relay-health.mjs`: Added explicit `ws.close()` in `catch` blocks for timeout scenarios. +- `src/lock-publisher.mjs`: Added `.catch(() => {})` to publish promises to suppress unhandled rejections. diff --git a/src/decisions/DECISIONS_2026-02-21_race-condition.md b/src/decisions/DECISIONS_2026-02-21_race-condition.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..c4fc7ee --- /dev/null +++ b/src/decisions/DECISIONS_2026-02-21_race-condition.md @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +# Decisions - 2026-02-21 Race Condition Agent + +## Decision: Explicit WebSocket Closure on Timeout + +**Context:** The existing `probeWebSocketReachability` function in `src/relay-health.mjs` leaked connections when timeouts occurred. +**Decision:** We chose to extract the WebSocket connection management logic so that we can catch timeout exceptions from `withTimeout` and explicitly close the socket. +**Alternatives Considered:** Relying on `ws.close()` inside the promise executor (which is unreachable after timeout). +**Rationale:** Explicit closure is the only reliable way to prevent file descriptor leaks in this scenario. + +## Decision: Suppress Unhandled Rejections via `.catch()` + +**Context:** `src/lock-publisher.mjs` had potential for unhandled promise rejections if `publishPromise` failed after `withTimeout` settled. +**Decision:** Attached a no-op `.catch(() => {})` handler to `publishPromise`. +**Rationale:** This prevents the runtime from flagging unhandled rejections, while preserving the existing logic flow. diff --git a/src/lock-publisher.mjs b/src/lock-publisher.mjs index b600553..08d0fb5 100644 --- a/src/lock-publisher.mjs +++ b/src/lock-publisher.mjs @@ -109,11 +109,15 @@ function calculateBackoffDelayMs(attemptNumber, baseMs, capMs, randomFn = secure async function publishToRelays(pool, relays, event, publishTimeoutMs, phase) { const publishPromises = pool.publish(relays, event);
