Martin Vogel 92e7e6a913 fix: keep large thread-locals off the static TLS block
Indexing broke on x86-64 Linux: the index worker refused to start and
SIGKILLed its own process group, so every venue reported nothing but
"index worker ended with killed (exit=-1, signal=9)".

glibc places a thread's static TLS block inside the stack allocation it
makes for that thread. This branch's new thread-local caches -- a
512-slot field cache (~24 KB), per-depth tree cursors (~4 KB) and two
parked CBMArenas (~8 KB; an arena carries blocks[256] + block_sizes[256])
-- took static TLS from 47,905 to 93,513 bytes. The 64 KB parent-death
watchdog thread then could not be created at all, and a worker without
process-tree containment correctly refuses to index.

Four layers, because there were four things wrong:

  - The big thread-locals move to the heap behind a thread-local POINTER,
    allocated once per thread and reused, each with a correct fallback if
    allocation fails (the field cache and cursor pool are caches; a miss
    is slower, never wrong). Static TLS is back to 52,233 bytes.
  - PARENT_WATCHDOG_STACK_SIZE 64 KB -> 256 KB. "The watchdog only polls,
    a tiny stack suffices" was true when written and false once TLS
    reached ~50 KB, because the TLS block comes out of that same
    allocation.
  - cbm_thread_create retries with the default stack on EINVAL. A stack
    size is a hint about what a thread needs; the platform refusing the
    hint is not a reason to fail to create the thread.
  - tests/test_thread_stack_tls_contract.sh (Step 5a of scripts/test.sh)
    keeps static TLS a quarter clear of the smallest requested stack,
    reading that smallest size from the sources so a new small stack
    tightens the gate automatically.

Two diagnostics that made this findable at all, and that stay:
smoke-test.sh prints the worker log its failure message names (CI deletes
that sandbox with the job, so the one artifact naming the cause was
unreadable), and worker_containment_unavailable() now reports WHICH of
its conditions failed, with pid/pgrp/ppid.

Verified in the amd64 container, the venue nothing on the local ladder
covers: baseline main indexes 9039 nodes/15067 edges, this branch before
the fix refuses to start the worker, and after it indexes 9039/15067.

scripts/ — the canonical leg entries

The doctrine (enforced, not advisory): a venue may provision a machine; only a canonical leg script may exercise the product. Local CI, PR CI, the dry run and the release all call the SAME files below — venues differ only in host specs, architecture and inputs, never in what a leg does. Platform differences (arm64 sanitizer flags, native Windows behavior, the Linux portable binary) live INSIDE these scripts, once, never per-venue. tests/test_venue_parity_contract.sh (run as Step 0j of every test leg) turns any violation — inline harness logic in a workflow, a bypassed wrapper, a missing --help — into a red build.

Every entry answers --help (authoritative, agent-oriented: modes, env, exit codes) and rejects unknown flags with exit 2 + Please consult --help.

The legs

leg entry what a run gives you
test test.sh DEFAULT = the venue leg: static contracts (Step 0a–0r) + CLEAN ASan+UBSan build + all suites via the parallel harness + prod-binary guards. --suites a,b = iteration mode (incremental rebuild, subset, seconds). --tsan = the ThreadSanitizer leg. CLANGARM64 gets CI's trap-UBSan flags automatically.
package wrappers ci/test-package-wrappers.sh Go, npm, and PyPI runtime-set publication/lock suites on the current host. CI runs the same entry on Linux and Windows so both platform lock implementations gate.
build build.sh CLEAN production runtime set (native executable + authenticated integration asset; --with-ui adds one content-addressed UI pack). ccache via env.sh makes repeats fast; CCACHE_COMPILERCHECK=content guarantees a hit is byte-identical to a cold compile — never stale. --version, STATIC=1, BUILD_DIR=.
lint lint.sh clang-tidy + cppcheck + clang-format (+ no-skips policy). --ci = the CI gate set (no clang-tidy). Drives the same make targets as make lint/lint-ci.
smoke (unix) smoke-local.sh Stages a full release fixture, serves it on a kernel-assigned port, runs smoke-test.sh (ALL phases incl. download/install/update E2E) inside a disposable HOME/XDG/TMP sandbox. ui variant makes a missing verified UI pack a FAILURE. CBM_SMOKE_ARTIFACT_DIR = smoke an extracted release artifact verbatim (release mode).
smoke (windows) ../test-infrastructure/vm/vm-smoke.sh Same verified runtime-set contract on the real Windows VM, plus the user-PATH registry guard (prepare/verify/cleanup).
smoke-invariants smoke-invariants.sh Production-path resilience battery (MCP handshake, all tools invocable, malformed-input handling, supervised crash/hang recovery) — no fixture server or install E2E. smoke.yml runs an explicitly seam-enabled build on the WIDEST source matrix; release artifacts remain seam-free and use the release-shaped smoke legs above.
soak soak-legs.sh The release-gating soak SEQUENCE: quick then query-leak (the #581 detector — never reindexes, so RSS growth = query-path leak), each guarded by a completion-summary check. --legs quick for the ASan single-leg variant. Duration is per leg.

Internal harnesses — never called directly by a venue (the contract forbids it): smoke-test.sh (phases; wrappers provide fixture server + sandbox), soak-test.sh (one soak run; soak-legs.sh provides the sequence + guards), run-tests-parallel.sh (reached through test.sh).

Conventions

  • Exit codes: 0 = pass · 2 = usage error · 90 = guard (a run died without its completion summary — never counts as green) · anything else = the leg's real failure.
  • Iteration is a flag, not a side-tool: the fast paths (--suites, --legs) are modes of the SAME entry the gates run, so a dev loop can never drift from the venue behaviour.
  • Env sandboxing: the smoke wrappers neutralize every agent-config destination override; a smoke can never scribble on your real config.
  • Iterating on a change: scripts/test.sh --suites <suite> (seconds, incremental, same ASan+UBSan flags as the gate). List suites: build/c/test-runner --list-suites. Debugging a Windows-on-ARM trap: re-run with SANITIZE= for a plain build, or use the emulated win.sh ubsan-* pair for full diagnostics.
  • Before any push (the 3-OS ladder): scripts/test.sh (macOS, full) → ./test-infrastructure/run.sh full (Linux + TSan + smoke) → test-infrastructure/vm/win.sh test-par + guards + smoke-install (+ soak when the change touches memory/daemon paths).
  • Concurrency-touching change: add scripts/test.sh --tsan early — the same leg CI gates on.
  • Release-shaped verification: CBM_SMOKE_ARTIFACT_DIR=<extracted artifact> scripts/smoke-local.sh <binary> [ui] smokes exactly what would ship.
  • A leg is red in CI but green locally: first suspect environment shape, not code — the preflights (win.sh automatic; scripts/ci/preflight-docker.sh) and test-infrastructure/README.md's residuals list cover the knowable differences.
