Step two of CONTRACT-P6 5.2. The ~90 scattered `MGLOG_F("...Fatal{...}"); std::abort();`
pairs under MG_Remote/ become one call each to SessionFail(MGFatalFamily, fmt, ...),
which logs, echoes to stderr, counts, and aborts in one place. a6's census
found no single chokepoint existed; now there is one, and step three hangs the
SessionFault-to-peer publish off it.
THE MESSAGE STRING IS PASSED VERBATIM. The contract requires the log lines, the
CI greps and every red-once byte-identical, so SessionFail does not compose the
line from the family - it takes the SAME string the site handed MGLOG_F and
forwards it unchanged. The family enum rides alongside, redundantly, so the
funnel has the coarse wire FatalCode without parsing the string. The census now
checks that redundancy the way it checks WireLogFatal: every SessionFail call's
string must carry a Fatal{ word, so the enum and the string cannot silently
disagree.
The conversion was mechanical - 89 sites by a transform that injects the family
as MGLOG_F's new first argument and drops the trailing abort - with three sites
fixed by hand that the transform would have broken: a stub macro, and two
if/else-then-shared-abort blocks (PersistentMapTracker's adopt-tier and
SurfaceOpCodec's three surface-error branches) where a naive rewrite stole the
abort from the earlier branches and would have let them fall through. The
death tests are the safety net for byte-identity, and every one stayed green.
Four std::abort() remain under MG_Remote/, all inside the two funnels
(WireLog.cpp, FatalFunnel.cpp); the census exempts both files because their
callers carry the family word, and its baseline drops from 93 aborts to 4.
SessionFaultCount() is the one telemetry point S8 will assert zero over a good
run.
G1 re-measured: 0 symbol diff, .text unchanged at 0xa52203 (FatalFunnel and
FatalFamily live under MG_Remote/, compiled only in the disaggregated build).
Unit 2358 (one pre-existing environmental failure), integration-split 186/186,
integration-spawn 102/102, retrace 6/6, census 0 unmarked.
Exit gate S7, and the precondition for CONTRACT-P6 5.2's funnel rather than
its replacement.
S7 says "a bare abort() added outside Session::Fail -> the census gate goes
red". Session::Fail does not exist: it is the 93-site refactor 5.2 describes,
and it is not in this commit. What IS checkable today is the property that
funnel exists to guarantee and that every consumer already depends on - every
death under MG_Remote/ names a FAMILY, in a Fatal{Word} marker a grep can
find. run_trace_case.cmake reds a split retrace on any `Fatal{` line, the
retrace lane's refusal census counts them by name, and MEASUREMENTS quotes
the distinct words. A death with no word is invisible to all three.
TWO RULES, BECAUSE ONE WOULD LAUNDER THE OTHER. An abort must carry a marker
within twelve lines; and every WireLogFatal call must carry one in its format
string. WireLog.cpp's own abort is exempt from the first rule ONLY because its
five callers satisfy the second - a funnel that accepted an unmarked string
would be a hole shaped exactly like the rule.
THE BASELINE BOUNDS SILENCE, NOT DEATHS. Abort sites may grow freely; a new
family word may not appear unrecorded. Freezing the total would make every new
guard a gate change, which is how a gate stops being run. The wire's FatalCode
has seven values and the internal vocabulary is thirty-two, which is the
divergence D2 exists to bound - so growing it has to be an act, not an
accident.
THE CENSUS ALSO CORRECTS ITSELF. Its first run reported WireLog.h's own PROSE
as an unmarked death: the comment explaining why the stderr echo exists
contains the words std::abort(). So the scanner strips comments before
matching, with a character-level pass rather than a regex - a `"http://"`
inside a string literal is not a comment - while KEEPING string literals,
because the markers it looks for live in them. Real numbers after that fix:
93 abort sites, 32 family words, 0 unmarked. a6 had counted 92 and 30 from a
scan that did not make the distinction.
AND THE ONE REAL FINDING. a6 named two aborts with no marker at all;
WireLog.cpp's is the sanctioned funnel, so the genuine one is
PersistentMapTracker's invalid-MOBILEGL_IPC_ADOPT_TIER death. It now carries
Fatal{UnimplementedAdoptTier}, which is what makes the census zero.
R-16 both ways, run: a bare std::abort() reds it naming the file and line, and
a new family word reds it naming the word and how to record it.
