Fail when benchmark artifact collection fails.

Line 150 suppresses kubectl cp failures. Job completion does not guarantee that the AIPerf results were copied to the runner. The workflow only warns when no upload files exist, so the smoke can succeed without the expected results.

Remove || true and verify the expected artifact directory:

Proposed fix 
-    "${pod}:/tmp/aiperf/." "${ARTIFACT_DIR}/" || true
+    "${pod}:/tmp/aiperf/." "${ARTIFACT_DIR}/"
+[[ -d "${ARTIFACT_DIR}/deepseek-v4-pro-smoke/c1" ]] || {
+    echo "AIPerf artifacts were not collected" >&2
+    exit 1

artifact collection fail the smoke when kubectl cp fails by removing the failure
suppression after the kubectl cp invocation. After copying, validate that the
expected AIPerf artifact directory exists, using the existing ARTIFACT_DIR path,
and print an error to stderr followed by a nonzero exit when it is missing.

[P1] The results copy can never work, so the smoke test uploads no AIPerf data. .github/scripts/run_deepseek_v4_pro_smoke.sh:149. Line 141 waits for the Job to finish, so the pod is always in phase Succeeded, and kubectl cp cannot enter a finished pod. Removing || true alone will turn the nightly red every run. Please keep the results on the mounted PVC.

Measured, with a running-pod control

I copied the shape of the rendered smoke Job into a test Job. It uses restartPolicy: Never and the image python:3.12-slim, and it writes results under /tmp/aiperf/. I then ran the exact sequence from lines 141 to 150. The control copies from a pod that is still running.

pod phase kubectl cp exit files copied
Succeeded (subject, the state line 141 waits for) 1 0
Running (control, same image, same path, same command) 0 1

The subject prints:

error: cannot exec into a container in a completed pod; current phase is Succeeded

I got the same result with client v1.31.5 and with client v1.36.3, against server v1.31.5. The failure comes from the API server, not from the client version.

Three things make the miss silent:

  1. || true turns exit 1 into exit 0. I measured rc=0 after it.
  2. .github/ci/deepseek-v4-pro/smoke/kustomization.yaml:35-36 moves ARTIFACT_ROOT to /tmp/aiperf/deepseek-v4-pro-smoke. Upstream recipes/deepseek-v4/deepseek-v4-pro/vllm/disagg/gb200/perf.yaml:47-48 writes under /opt/models, which is the model-cache PVC. The overlay moves the results off the PVC, so the failed copy is the only way out of the pod.
  3. kubectl logs at line 145 still works on a finished pod. So aiperf.log and the diagnostics files do land in the artifact directory, and if-no-files-found: warn stays quiet.

Every run uploads the log and the diagnostics, and never the AIPerf results.

I am not posting a suggestion block, because the obvious one is wrong. If you only drop || true, the copy still fails and the job goes red every night.

[P3] The job timeout leaves no room for the waits inside the script. .github/workflows/deepseek-v4-pro-nightly.yml:24. The five waits in the script add up to exactly 150 minutes, which is the value of timeout-minutes. A slow run dies on the runner timeout instead of the script's own message. Please raise the job timeout.

The budget, added up from the script defaults

The waits run one after another, so they add.

step default minutes
PVC_TIMEOUT_SECONDS at line 15 300 5
worker-count loop at lines 121 to 127, 60 turns of sleep 5 300s 5
SCHEDULING_TIMEOUT at line 13 10m 10
DEPLOY_TIMEOUT at line 12 100m 100
PERF_TIMEOUT at line 14 30m 30
total 150
timeout-minutes at line 24 of the workflow 150
headroom 0

DEPLOY_TIMEOUT is not padding. The startup probe in the recipe allows failureThreshold: 540 at periodSeconds: 10, which is 5400 seconds, or 90 minutes, at recipes/deepseek-v4/deepseek-v4-pro/vllm/disagg/gb200/deploy.yaml:68-74. A first launch can genuinely use most of the 100 minutes.

Nothing is left for checkout, image pulls, the two kubectl kustomize renders, diagnostics collection, or the namespace delete in cleanup.
