build: fail-closed PGO for release images - #975
Conversation
Three-phase build inside the Dockerfile builder stage, default-on: instrumented build -> committed 12-shape training run against a local mock -> profile-merged optimized build. Any phase failing fails the image build; pushed images carry a pgo-verified.json proof marker the workflow asserts before signing. PR smoke builds pass PGO=off unless they touch the pipeline or the training assets. - bench/pgo-training: std-only trainer (mock upstream + deterministic driver in one binary; 12 shapes covering 3 dialects x streaming and non-streaming, mid-size body, inline rate-limit posture, native anthropic passthrough, routing-kind dispatch, embeddings; the chat shape is byte-identical to the public benchmark board's default workload) plus train.sh: one gateway lifetime per shape, profraw count/size floors, llvm-profdata merge from the pinned toolchain's llvm-tools-preview, content-addressed merged profile, manifest - Dockerfile: PGO build-arg (default on), separate target dirs per phase so profile builds never share cargo fingerprints with plain builds, marker installed into the runtime stage - docker-image.yml: timeout 45 -> 120, PGO=off on PR smoke builds with a path-filtered PGO=on exercise, proof-marker assertion on every PGO build, #847 symbol gate extended to tag builds - RELEASING.md: fail-closed semantics and marker inspection command Measured on the local x86 probe harness against a re-anchored post-#970 baseline (anchor drift -0.12%, fail=0, floor headroom 12.5x): +25.85% rps on the board workload (accept line +20%), +17.14% on the untrained 32 KiB holdout (one-sided no-regression gate). Gateway sources are unchanged: the shipped binary differs only by compiler optimization decisions over the same code and lockfile.

There are two merge blockers in the release gate:
-
[P1] The PGO proof gate runs after the public image tags are pushed. For non-PR events,
docker/build-push-actionpublishes the GHCR and Docker Hub tags beforeAssert PGO proof markerruns. IfPGO=offleaks through, the marker is missing or invalid, or the job is cancelled after the push, the workflow fails but the version, rolling, dev, and SHA tags already point to the unverified digest. Skipping cosign does not retract an image that non-verifying clients can pull. Please verify the local/OCI or staging artifact first and then promote the same verified digest to the public tags, or make an independent require-PGO assertion fail inside the Docker target before export or push. -
[P2] The PR PGO selector can fail open. It does not include
rust-toolchain.toml, even though that file selectsllvm-tools-previewand therefore thellvm-profdataused by training. Also,git diff --name-only ... | grep -qE ...is used in anifwithout independently checking thegit diffexit status, so a diff failure silently leavesmode=offand skips the marker step on the PR. Please include all direct PGO inputs, at minimumrust-toolchain.toml, and capture and validate the diff before matching it. Classification failures should default to PGO on, not off.
…alues Per review: Cargo.toml (carries [profile.release]), Cargo.lock, and rust-toolchain.toml are PGO build inputs, so PRs touching them now run the full PGO=on exercise pre-merge; the Dockerfile rejects any PGO value other than on/off instead of silently producing an unmarked plain build.

Re-review of 5c2f9246e092e920b79f955e875da56ca9794297:
The previous public-tag/marker-order concern is resolved as a merge blocker. The Docker build now rejects every PGO value except explicit on/off, and the PGO=on path validates the shape count, profraw count, profile size, phase-C build, and marker copy before BuildKit can export or push the image. The outer marker check remains useful defense in depth. The root Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock, and rust-toolchain.toml inputs are also now covered.
One blocker remains:
[P2] Make the PR PGO classifier fail closed when git diff fails.
The PR path first sets mode=off, then evaluates git diff --name-only "$BASE_SHA" HEAD | grep ... directly as an if condition. If git diff fails, the condition is false and the script continues to emit value=off; set -e does not stop a command used as an if condition. This can silently skip the three-phase PGO exercise for a PR whose changed-file classification could not be trusted.
Please run git diff --name-only as a separate checked command, store its output, and only then match the file list. A classification error should terminate the job or retain mode=on; it must not produce off. Capturing the output first is preferable to merely adding pipefail, because grep -q can close the pipe early.
Capture git diff --name-only as a checked assignment before matching: inside an if condition a git failure is exempt from set -e and would silently leave mode=off, skipping the three-phase PGO exercise for a PR whose changed-file classification could not be trusted. As an assignment the failure kills the step. Matching captured text also avoids grep -q closing the pipe under git.
|
Re the remaining [P2] (fail-open PR classifier): adopted in 0b4c79f. The diff is now captured as a checked assignment — a git failure kills the step (set -e applies to the assignment, unlike an if-condition), so a classification error terminates the job instead of emitting mode=off. Matching the captured text also sidesteps grep -q closing the pipe under git (SIGPIPE), per the review's note on why capture-first beats pipefail. |
Closes #967.
What
Release images are now profile-guided-optimized, fail-closed, with all training assets version-controlled. Gateway sources are unchanged: the shipped binary differs only by compiler optimization decisions over the same code and lockfile.
Three-phase build inside the Dockerfile builder stage, behind build-arg
PGO(default on):-Cprofile-generate, own target dir.bench/pgo-training/train.shboots the instrumented gateway (standalone file mode, no etcd) once per shape and drives the committed 12-shape matrix through it via the new std-onlypgo-trainer(mock upstream + deterministic driver in one dependency-free binary). Profraws are merged with thellvm-profdatafrom the pinned toolchain'sllvm-tools-previewcomponent — exact LLVM match with rustc, zero new toolchain dependencies.-Cprofile-useagainst a content-addressedmerged-<sha>.profdata(cargo fingerprints the profile PATH, not its content — a fixed path would silently reuse stale artifacts from the persistent target cache mount), own target dir.Fail-closed (#967 hard gate 2): any phase failing fails the image build; nothing is pushed. The
pgo-verified.jsonproof marker (shape list, profraw count, profile bytes/sha) is written only after phase 3 succeeds, ships in the image, and is asserted by the workflow on every PGO build before signing.PGO=offproduces no marker, so anoffleak into a push build fails the assertion; a forgotten build-arg ships PGO'd, never silently un-optimized.Training matrix (12 shapes)
3 dialects (
/v1/chat/completions,/v1/messages,/v1/responses) × streaming and non-streaming, ~4 KB mid-size body, inline rate-limit posture (quota gate), native anthropic passthrough (2 shapes — production/v1/messagestraffic on anthropic upstreams takes the verbatim path, not the bridge), routing-kind dispatch, and embeddings. The chat shape is byte-identical to the public benchmark board's default workload (bench/onthebench/lib.sh). Streaming shapes emit 48 SSE frames over chunked transfer, frame by frame, so the relay loop trains on incremental reads. Error paths are deliberately untrained (cold in production; PGO treating them as cold is correct). Maintenance rule: the matrix mirrors the bench suites — a new hot path adds a shape in the same PR.Upstream TLS is the one known untrained hot path (plaintext mock); deferred with rig-measurability prerequisites to #973.
Measurements (local x86 probe harness, anchored A/B)
Re-anchored post-#970 baseline; anchor drift −0.12%, fail=0 on every leg, floor headroom 12.5×.
Screening (#967) measured +31.5% with single-endpoint training; the ~5.6 pt difference is the measured dilution cost of the 12-shape coverage.
CI / workflow changes
timeout-minutes45 → 120 (two fat-LTO compiles + a training run).PGO=off(one compile, unchanged latency) — except PRs touchingDockerfile,bench/pgo-training/**, or the workflow itself, which run the fullPGO=onthree-phase build pre-merge (this PR exercises it)..eh_frame/jemalloc gate now also runs on tag builds, proving the PGO'd shipped binary keeps the profiling contract (verified locally: 36,016 text symbols, jemalloc symbols present,.symtab/.eh_frameintact).Ecosystem survey (per repo research rule)
Of the mainstream AI gateways surveyed for release-artifact optimization, one ships mandatory fail-closed PGO for its host-native release targets — three-phase build, positive proof marker, marker-gated publish workflows — which is the pattern adopted here; the others ship plain release builds, and none ship post-link binary layout optimization (evaluated and rejected for now in #967: +3.9% did not justify an external toolchain inside a fail-closed release path). Divergence from the surveyed pattern: our build runs inside the Dockerfile rather than the release workflow, so third-party
docker buildfrom source also produces a PGO'd image; only barecargo build --releasesource builds remain un-optimized, consistent with how major compilers/runtimes ship PGO'd official binaries of open source. Upstream spec: https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/profile-guided-optimization.htmlVerification
