- E-03: the open wrapper's handler-exit teardown no longer discards
UnknownChannel silently — debug log + benign-race pinning comment
(ledger take is the atomic gate; no double-decrement)
- E-04: consumer-facing doc note on the 64-parked-chunks observable
bound (channel-client.md + EARLY_ARRIVAL_CAP const doc) for
tunnel-style push-first producers
- N-2: ChannelManager::early_arrival_count() accessor (the
observability choice over removing the write-only counter),
documented monotonic, with a park/adopt-drain monotonicity test
- review 006: Unit 3 marked implemented in Status and remediation plan
Verification: 617 tests pass; clippy -D warnings clean (host +
wasm32 check); fmt clean; doc clean
Implements ADR-049 Unit 1 — the open-op wrapper gains an awaited,
bounded establishment phase, and the client stops erasing the error.
- OpenEstablisher hook + Establishment/EstablishmentError types:
register_openable_with_establisher awaits the establisher bounded
(earlier of dispatch deadline and per-registration timeout, else
ESTABLISHMENT_TIMEOUT = 10s) after allocation, before the reply and
before the pump handler is spawned (ADR-049 §1/§2). Implementation
note: the establisher takes (input, auth) only — the channel's
yield-once BiStream belongs exclusively to the pump handler
(amendment recorded in ADR-049).
- Establishment failure: teardown_channel + opener-ledger take +
policy.on_close un-increment (allocation and teardown balance;
the ledger take is the atomic gate, ADR-047 §7), reply
channel:open_failed with details {reason, message} — reason ∈
dial_failed / unknown_resource / resource_shortage / handler_error
/ timeout (ADR-049 §3). SSH contract consumer-visible: a failed
open never returns a channel_id.
- register_openable unchanged (no establisher = always-OK; existing
registrations compile and behave identically — compat gate test).
- ChannelClient::open_channel returns ChannelOpenError (breaking at
0.5.0): CallFailed { error: CallError } carries the wire error
verbatim (establishment_reason() branches on details.reason);
MissingChannelId / AdoptFailed cover the local-only shapes
(ADR-049 §4, review 006 N-1).
- Tests cover all four verification gates from the review: e2e
establisher failure through a real channels connection (typed
reason + no-channel + ledger un-increment), bounded timeout,
no-establisher compat, establisher-success pump round-trip; plus
reason-vocabulary mapping and bound arithmetic.
- Bump to 0.5.0 (open_channel error-type change is semver-relevant).
Verification: cargo test (608 passed), clippy --all-targets -D
warnings, fmt --check, doc --no-deps, wasm32 check — all clean.
Design review from the alktunnels Phase 0 research pass, verified
against tree a22b2b8 (0.4.1). Findings numbered E-01..E-04:
- E-01 [major] — the open op cannot fail after allocation: the
wrapper replies {channel_id} the moment the OpenHandler is spawned;
establishment failures (params-valid-but-rejected, backend lookup
failure, target dial failure) present to the consumer as a
successful open followed by an instant, indistinguishable clean
EOF (implicit-EOF mux path + unified poll_read EOF arms). SSH
semantics (RFC 4254 §5.1 open-failure reply with reason codes;
channel never exists opener-side), SOCKS5 reply codes, and
udpgw's opaque ERR bit (counterexample) surveyed in
alktunnels/docs/research/ssh-socks5-survey.md. alktty's in-band
error-frame mechanism (send_negotiation_error, 0x00-peek) is the
per-crate workaround this upstream establisher obsoletes for the
channels path. Proposed shape: an awaited establishment hook
(OpenEstablisher) or await-and-inspect OpenHandler, tearing down on
failure and replying channel:open_failed with SSH-four reason codes
in ADR-016 details. Remediation sketch + verification gates
included.
- E-02 [minor] — services/list discloses no per-op metadata; OQ-40
(channel/resources/subscribe) becomes load-bearing for the first
time via the alktunnels discovery resolution (OQ-TN-08).
- E-03 [minor] — OpenHandler-exit vs channel/close teardown race is
benign (ledger take is the gate) but the let _ = discard at
operations.rs:509 is silent; recommend log-or-comment.
- E-04 [minor] — early-arrival park cap (64) is an observable bound
for push-first producers under slow adopters; no change requested,
filed so the constraint is visible to the next consumer.
Non-findings recorded: open-op ACL path complete across all three
dispatch entry points; input_schema enforcement covers open params;
EOF arms unified; channel_open marker + resource_id_path wire
round-trip intact; opener-ledger decrement atomic at every call site.
alkcall tests: 597 passed (docs-only change; baseline check).
