The managed-scope disposal cases in subprocess-local and bash-sandbox run past
the 5000ms default when this lane's four partitions, six workers per gate, and
sibling gates share one host. The same commit stays inside the budget on the
in-house pool: the hosted image exceeded it (run 34449848541) and the lane is
green with 90000 (run 34457655892). The Windows coverage lane already grants
the same budget for the same class of teardown.
The per-platform failover repository variables (DSH_CI_FAILOVER_LINUX and
DSH_CI_FAILOVER_WINDOWS) accept a third value alongside the existing
selfhosted routing. Set by a repository writer, the value retargets the
always-on pull-request and master lanes onto the matching hosted-runner
labels (16-core pools map to the 16-vCPU tier, standard legs to 4-vCPU);
unset or any other value keeps today's runners, so the leg is dormant until
a writer opts in - a canary path for capacity fallback, never the default.
Participating jobs: the three enterprise Linux workers, the node-compat
legs, the four Windows lanes, and the all-checks-passed verdict in ci.yml;
expected-filenames; the sandbox bwrap leg; and the two manual benchmark
matrices (4-32 vCPU tiers map to equivalents; 64/96-core rows keep the
fleet labels). Everything pinned to its own runner by spec, credential, or
host capability keeps it under every value, and the release-shaped chains
stay entirely hosted. request-review.yml was retired on master while this
work was in flight and the branch takes the deletion.
Specs pin the new branches: ci-workflow.spec.ts asserts the labels appear
in the extended selectors, and ci-compatible-selfhosted.spec.ts evaluates
the routing mode.
Master's windows-python-console-spawn-wait fix removed the plugin-add flake
this branch previously retried, so that retry is dropped entirely; the
branch keeps the changes that remain useful.
- Retry the immutable install step up to three attempts total with a
ten-second pause (bash on every platform): node-gyp's Node-header
download from nodejs.org intermittently times out, as observed on the
hosted node24-macos-x64 cell.
- Keep checkout credentials out of the build tree (persist-credentials:
false) so dependency-install scripts cannot read the embedded token.
- Failover runbook: drop the stray leading '#' before the Dependabot
paragraph on both sides.
- Hosted-runtime note: name the PR/commit ownership and UTC timestamps of
the cited runs and record the constraints a future self-hosted attempt
must satisfy; new note records the install retry decision.
Windows x64 runtime builds resolve their hosted matrix.runner unconditionally
again (windows-2025 for pull-request CI). Remove the DSH_CI_FAILOVER_WINDOWS
selector, job-private Python toolchain, self-hosted dependency install and
post-step cleanup, the private setup script, and the routing spec introduced
in #3629. The Windows failover switch again covers only the native Windows
jobs in ci.yml.
