New Machine can fail with handshakeTimedOut(15.0 seconds) when the VM is slow to come up. Measured on the dev backend: the first clone of a snapshot after about 2 hours opened its daemon listener 13 s after create (likely a cold Freestyle memory restore). The hub connector from #13299 redialed every 50 ms for only 3 s, then relied on TCP retransmits of the attempts in flight, and the next retransmit fell after the 15 s deadline.

Redials now continue until the deadline: every 50 ms for the first second, then every 250 ms. Each attempt gives up after 2 s and is replaced, so a lost SYN never waits on retransmit backoff, and open attempts stay bounded (about 20 per address at most). Port forwards keep their own handshake timeout through the same connector.

Tests: CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests covers a machine that comes up after the fast window, the bounded attempt count when nothing answers, and discard of extra successes. The test commit comes first so CI shows the old behavior failing.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Reliability
    • Connection attempts retry rapidly at first, then continue at a slower pace until the overall timeout, helping connect to machines that become reachable later.
    • Each attempt has its own timeout, capped by the overall connection deadline.
    • The connector continues trying available candidates until one succeeds or the deadline is reached.
    • Private-route lookup and link connection now share a 60-second connection budget, so time spent resolving a route reduces the time available to connect.

The hub connector redialed every 50 ms for 3 s and then relied on TCP
retransmits for the attempts already in flight. A cold snapshot restore
took 13 s to open its daemon listener; the next retransmit landed after
the 15 s deadline and New Machine failed with handshakeTimedOut.

Redials now run every 50 ms for the first second and every 250 ms until
the deadline. Each attempt gives up after 2 s and is replaced, so lost
SYNs never wait on retransmit backoff and open attempts stay bounded.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

CloudHubConnector now supports fast and slow redial intervals and a per-attempt handshake timeout. CloudMachineLinkManager shares a 60-second deadline across route resolution and link connection. Tests cover slow-phase connection, deadline failure, and caller-supplied route timeouts.

Changes

Cloud connection retries and deadlines

Layer / File(s) Summary
CloudHub redial scheduling
Sources/Cloud/PortForward/CloudHubConnector.swift, cmuxTests/CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests.swift
CloudHubConnector adds fast-redial, slow-redial, and attempt-timeout settings. hedged switches retry intervals at the configured threshold. Tests cover slow-phase success, deadline failure, stuck attempts, and discarded extra successes.
Shared connection deadline
Sources/Cloud/CloudMachineLinkManager.swift, Sources/Cloud/CloudMachineLinkManager+PrivateRoute.swift, cmuxTests/CloudPrivateRouteSelectionTests.swift
CloudMachineLinkManager passes the shared connection budget to route resolution and gives link connection the remaining time, with a one-second minimum. Private-route resolution applies a supplied timeout. A test checks that route resolution respects a short timeout.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: teamleaderleo, austinywang

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 50b74

Cloud connections can exceed their stated deadline or report the wrong timeout, while timing-sensitive tests may fail under load. Resolve the deadline behavior before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 50b74

Retries can now continue longer for a slow cloud machine, but they still use the existing private-route checks and connection cleanup. The shared deadline allows a final one-second attempt, so it is not a strict cutoff.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Longer probing increases the time spent attempting eligible addresses for a silent or slow machine, but the inspected path remains limited to that machine's addresses, enrolled routes, and acquired hub.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The browser-proxy caller also checks cloud and private-route state, client capability, and trusted-listener preparation before acquiring a hub and selecting a route.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Failed probes cancel their socket; the retry group discards extra successes and drains children. Route failure releases the hub lease, and link failure disconnects the link.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — If 60 seconds must be an absolute connection cutoff, check the deadline before starting the link and after it connects rather than granting the one-second minimum.

Full details: Cmux Swift Blocking Runtime

Explanation

The production diff materially expands timing-based synchronization in Sources/Cloud/PortForward/CloudHubConnector.swift. The base implementation scheduled clock.sleep(for: redialInterval) only until maxRedials; the changed scheduleRedial adds a slow phase and keeps scheduling clock.sleep(for: interval) redial tasks after the fast window until the overall deadline. connect always enables this phase, and the new two-second attempt timeout increases replacement attempts. The test-only Task.sleep and NSLock usage is allowed, but the shipped connector change is not test-only.

Resolution

Replace the repeated production sleep-driven redial loop with a dedicated cancellation-aware retry scheduler or async sequence that owns the retry deadline and cancellation, or use an explicit network readiness/state-transition callback where available. Do not extend scheduleRedial with unbounded clock.sleep child tasks for the slow phase.

Full details: Cmux Swift Package Boundaries

Explanation

CloudHubConnector.swift materially expands reusable cloud connection and redial logic in Sources/Cloud/PortForward, which is part of the app target. The changed code imports only Foundation and Network, uses an injected clock and closures, and has no AppKit, SwiftUI, Ghostty, or app-lifecycle dependency. Its generic hedged policy is independently testable, and the connector serves both private-route selection and port forwarding. The new tests remain in cmuxTests, not a SwiftPM package target. This matches the rule's independent-testability, stable-domain-API, network-contract, and isolated-test signals. The CloudMachineLinkManager deadline wiring is app composition and is not the boundary violation.

Resolution

Extract the connector's smallest reusable cut into a new macOS SwiftPM target, for example Packages/macOS/CmuxCloudHubConnector with target CmuxCloudHubConnector. Move the redial policy and its supporting value/error types there, including CloudHubConnector, CloudHubSlowRedialPhase, and the generic hedging implementation. Expose public CloudHubConnector (or a small public redialer protocol) and public CloudHubSlowRedialPhase; inject the attempt and discard operations so the policy does not depend on CloudMachineLinkManager or app globals. Keep the Network/SOCKS adapter at the app boundary if needed, import the package from the app target, and move the connector hedge tests into the package test target.

Full details: Cmux Architecture Rethink

Explanation

The production diff materially expands a timing and polling repair for a socket-readiness race. CloudHubConnector.connect always enables CloudHubSlowRedialPhase, and scheduleRedial adds cumulative timing state plus repeated clock.sleep redials until the deadline. The new per-attempt timeout also replaces stale sockets by elapsed-time policy. This changes existing capped redial debt into deadline-driven polling for a remote listener that has no represented readiness transition. The shared deadline is a clear correctness invariant, but it does not remove the architectural symptom patch.

Resolution

Make machine or hub readiness an explicit state transition owned by the Cloud connection lifecycle. Expose that transition to the connector and let one connection state machine await it under the caller's deadline. Remove the slow-phase schedule, cumulative timing state, and repeated production redial polling. First migration cut: inject a readiness event/result into CloudHubConnector, test delayed readiness and deadline expiry, then delete the deadline-driven redial phase.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Discard successes after the deadline.

When .deadline cancels the group, an in-flight attempt can still return .success. Cancellation is cooperative, and the test closure in extraSuccessesAreDiscarded explicitly permits a value after cancellation. (github.com) This branch then assigns that value to winner because it does not check expired. With redials now starting until the deadline, hedged can return a connection after its timeout. Discard a success when expired is true.

Proposed fix
 case .success(let value):
-    if winner == nil {
+    if expired {
+        discard(value)
+    } else if winner == nil {
         winner = value
         group.cancelAll()
     } else {
         discard(value)

Make the redial tests independent of scheduler delays. Both tests use real elapsed time to control behavior or assert retry progress. Correct code can fail these tests when CI delays a task. Use a controllable clock for the redial schedule and simulated reachability.

  • cmuxTests/CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests.swift#L80-L90: advance a fake clock past reachability only after the first attempt has started.
  • cmuxTests/CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests.swift#L73-L74: advance the same clock through specified ticks before asserting the attempt count.

As per coding guidelines, “A test must not depend on real wall-clock time.”

Agreed that these are wall-clock tests. hedged already takes clock:, so the schedule could be driven by a test clock, but the attempts' simulated reachability (ContinuousClock.now < reachableAt) and Task.sleep would also have to move onto that clock. The existing laterAttemptWinsOverStuckEarlyAttempt from #13299 has the same shape. The bounds are loose (about 18 expected starts against a floor of 8 in unreachableFailsAtDeadlineWithBoundedAttempts), so I'm treating this as a follow-up for the author rather than a merge blocker.

@teamleaderleo, agreed. Changing only hedged(clock:) would leave simulated reachability and attempt sleeps tied to real time. laterAttemptWinsOverStuckEarlyAttempt has the same issue. I’ll leave this finding open as a non-blocking follow-up. Would you like me to open a GitHub issue for the author?

Review status (Leo's maintainer sweep). No push from me.

The branch merges cleanly with main, and main has not touched CloudHubConnector.swift since the merge base. The only red checks are suite-coverage and ci-status. Both fail because cmuxTests/ changed and the macOS suite was skipped (Add the 'full-ci' label ... or 'no-full-ci'). They are not failing tests.

Review:

  • The redial logic in Sources/Cloud/PortForward/CloudHubConnector.swift (hedged, CloudHubRedialSchedule) looks correct. The tick stops rescheduling once winner != nil || expired, open attempts are bounded by attemptTimeout, and the group drains every child before returning, so late winners are discarded.
  • CodeRabbit's outside-diff comment ("Discard successes after the deadline", CloudHubConnector.swift:120-123) is technically right. A success that lands after .deadline but before the group drains becomes winner and is returned slightly after timeout. It is a narrow race and returns a working connection, so I'd call it a judgment call rather than a bug. If you want the documented "within timeout" contract to hold strictly, add if expired { discard(value) } else if winner == nil { ... }. I did not push it; I'd rather not trigger a cold macOS build for a debatable nit.
  • The tests use ContinuousClock(), so they run on real wall-clock time (CodeRabbit thread at CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests.swift:90). unreachableFailsAtDeadlineWithBoundedAttempts asserts 8 to 30 starts in a 400 ms real window, and a slow CI host lowers that count. The margin is large, about 18 expected against a floor of 8. The pre-existing test already used real time, so this doesn't block.

Still blocking: full-ci (or no-full-ci) needs a maintainer decision so suite-coverage can go green.

Added unit-ci. This diff changes cmuxTests/ and app code, and nothing in cmuxUITests/, so the app-host unit shards can judge it; choose_ci_suite.coverage_gap treats unit-ci as covering that. That clears the suite-coverage gate without paying for the full suite. Add full-ci instead if you want E2E and lag coverage too.

Report the overall deadline when it expires.

connect gives each handshake a two-second timeout and gives hedged a 15-second overall timeout. A handshake timeout can overwrite lastError before the overall deadline. The deadline then cancels the children but still throws lastError.

CloudPortForwardRelay.RelayError.handshakeTimedOut(timeout) is the existing overall-timeout contract. Throw it when expired is true.

The current unreachable test does not detect this case. Its attempt sleeps for 10 seconds, so cancellation occurs before a per-attempt error is recorded. Make the test produce a per-attempt handshakeTimedOut before its 400-millisecond deadline, then assert that the returned error carries 400 milliseconds.

`lastError`. Adjust the unreachable test so an attempt records a per-attempt
timeout before the 400-millisecond overall deadline, and assert the returned
timeout is 400 milliseconds.

Rebased onto #14059's connector: its per-address redial logic is kept as is; this PR adds an opt-in slow phase (every 250 ms after the first second, until the deadline) and a 2 s per-attempt timeout. Changed suites CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests and CloudPortForwardAddressReuseTests passed on head 232e19d in https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/actions/runs/36074748076 (9 tests in 2 suites).

…the link

The link allowed 60 s to connect, but address selection ran first with the
connector's own 15 s default. A machine restored from a cold snapshot opened
its daemon listener ~13 s after create; selection timed out
(handshakeTimedOut 15 s) and New Machine failed while the link still had
45 s left. Selection now uses the link's budget and the link connect gets
what remains, so the whole connect has one deadline. The browser proxy
path uses the same budget.

Remove the wall-clock ceiling from this timeout test.

If a loaded runner delays the test task, the three-second assertion can fail even when the connector honors the 400 ms budget. The hidden input is scheduler delay. Inject a virtual clock into the connector used by route selection, advance it to the deadline, and assert the timeout result instead of elapsed time. As per coding guidelines, Test Determinism prohibits “an assertion on a measured wall-clock duration, or a hard absolute latency ceiling on shared CI.”

Stop link setup when the shared deadline expires.

The one-second minimum is intentional, but it conflicts with the documented shared connect budget. resolvedPrivateRoute must receive the remaining deadline, and the manager must fail before link.connect when no time remains.

Root cause of the 16.7 s New Machine failure: address selection ran with the connector's own 15 s default while the link allowed 60 s. Selection and link now share one connect deadline (968e2fe test, 50b744a fix). Changed suites CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests, CloudPortForwardAddressReuseTests and CloudPrivateRouteSelectionTests passed on the fix in https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/actions/runs/36091799168 (17 tests in 3 suites); the test-only commit fails in https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/actions/runs/36091801468.

Dogfood tours of 89114e46

sidebar-and-chrome-tour at 89114e46, on its merge fe34445b that CI built: passed (run)

Key frames of sidebar-and-chrome-tour at 89114e4 04-three-workspaces 10-split-right 15-command-palette 24-settings

Tours are picked by the paths globs in dogfood/scenarios/*.json; a Dogfood-tours: a, b line in the description picks them instead (none turns this off). Look at every frame before merging: a green tour only means no step failed.

The merge of #14818's refreshIfNeeded path passes the remaining budget into
the second route lookup. Cover that path: a 3 s refresh against a silent hub
must leave the connect only the rest of a 3.5 s budget, not a new one.

Merged main (291 commits). Conflict with #14818's refreshIfNeeded path in resolvedPrivateRoute: kept both parameters, and the lookup after a hub route refresh now gets the remaining budget (Self.remaining(until: deadline)) instead of a new one.

New regression test routeRefreshSpendsTheCallersConnectBudget (3 s refresh, silent hub, 3.5 s budget):

  • green, 89114e4: run 36660245841, CloudPrivateRouteSelectionTests 11/11 passed.
  • red, temporary branch passing the full budget again after the refresh: run 36662324066, the test failed after 6.561 s (ContinuousClock.now - started < 5.5 s). Temporary branch deleted.

Full unit-ci run on 4d6856b: all three PR suites passed (CloudHubConnectorHedgeTests shard 1, CloudPrivateRouteSelectionTests shard 3, CloudPortForwardAddressReuseTests shard 6); ci-status failed only on main tests outside this PR.
