The forgejo-runner was offline when 989d310..410a137 landed, so the
build-grid-rs workflow never dispatched for those pushes. Empty CI
retrigger commits don't match the path filter. Touching the crate
root forces build-grid-rs.yaml to fire and pick up the HRRR S3
fallback + scores_file .prop rename + point lookup fix.
Also corrects the now-stale "f01..f18 forecast hours only" note — as
of Phase 3 Stream A, Rust owns the f00 analysis step too.
New telemetry module wires tracing-subscriber to both a local JSON
fmt layer (keeps kubectl-logs output identical) and an
OpenTelemetry OTLP/gRPC exporter, activated only when
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT is set. The returned TelemetryGuard
holds the SdkTracerProvider until process shutdown so queued spans
flush before exit.
Both bin targets (worker, hrrr_point_worker) now call
telemetry::init(service_name) at startup; service_name becomes the
OTel service.name attribute so Tempo groups spans per binary.
Tracing instrumentation on the three main work units:
- pipeline::run_chain_step (forecast f01..f18)
- pipeline::run_analysis_step (analysis f00)
- hrrr_points::process_batch (per-QSO point drain)
k8s manifests set OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT to the cluster
collector at otel-collector.observability.svc.cluster.local:4317.
Backend wiring lives in the vntx-infra repo.
Phase 3 Stream C Rust side. Completes the HrrrFetchWorker port.
Pipeline:
- db::claim_next_hrrr_task — FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED on hrrr_fetch_tasks,
newest valid_time first. Accepts the points JSONB directly.
- hrrr_points::process_batch — fetch surface + pressure GRIB2 once
per task (tokio::try_join), decode via the existing wgrib2 plumbing,
then for each requested point pull the cell and UPSERT INTO
hrrr_profiles (conflict on lat/lon/valid_time).
- db::complete_hrrr_task / fail_hrrr_task — status transitions; Elixir
backfill re-enqueues failed rows on next /30-min scan.
Shipping pieces:
- new bin src/bin/hrrr_point_worker.rs
- new module src/hrrr_points.rs (process_batch, upsert_profile)
- new Cargo [[bin]] entry; Dockerfile builds both binaries in one stage
and ships them in the runtime image so a single CI pipeline covers
the whole cluster
- k8s/deployment-hrrr-point-rs.yaml (1 replica, 1 Gi limit, anti-affinity
against prop-grid-rs so chain + point work don't fight for wgrib2
slots). Uses the same image; command: override picks the right binary.
- kustomization.yaml: include the new deployment so flux applies it
- deployment-grid-rs.yaml: bump readiness initialDelaySeconds 3→15 +
failureThreshold 3→6 so a slow DB connect during startup can't race
the first probe
119 Rust tests green.
Rust-side writer for the f00 ProfilesFile. Replaces the Elixir ETF
format (:erlang.term_to_binary) with MessagePack + gzip so Rust can
produce files without porting the Erlang serializer.
Wire layout: top-level map with 'v' (format version), 'valid_time'
(ISO string), and 'cells' (array of {lat, lon, profile}). Profile
values are an rmpv::Value so the writer stays agnostic about what
fields the f00 pipeline decides to include — native-duct metrics,
NEXRAD reflectivity, commercial-link degradation, and the sounding
profile list all serialize through the same path.
All keys are strings — MessagePack has no atom type. Elixir's reader
(follow-up commit) converts known keys to atoms via a whitelist.
Atomic writes via rename(2) mirror ScoresFile/ProfilesFile pattern:
write to tmp sibling, rename into place on the shared NFS mount.
4 unit tests cover round-trip, atomic rename, path layout, and
lat/lon snap.
native_duct.rs is the Rust side of HrrrNativeClient.fetch_native_duct_grid:
fetch native-level HRRR idx → select duct byte ranges (TMP/SPFH/HGT/PRES
× 50 hybrid levels = 200 messages, ~300 MB subset) → wgrib2 decode via
the existing decoder::extract_grid plumbing → per-cell build_native_profile
→ duct::analyze → HashMap<(lat, lon), DuctMetrics>.
build_native_profile keeps the Elixir semantics intact: drop cells that
don't reach 3 levels, sort by ascending height, tolerate missing SPFH/PRES
as zero (the duct math handles zeros gracefully). merge_duct_grid gives
the pipeline.rs caller a drop-in replacement for Elixir's apply_duct_grid.
claim_next_analysis is the analysis-lane companion to claim_next: selects
kind='analysis' rows only, same SKIP LOCKED + newest-first ordering. Kept
on a separate claim function so the forecast lane can keep running
unaffected during cutover; the analysis pipeline wiring lands next.
9 pure unit tests cover message generation, URL builder, profile-sort,
min-level filter, and merge-into-base behaviour. Network-live golden
against a real native GRIB2 deferred to the cutover commit.
Port of the subset of Microwaveprop.Weather.NexradClient used by
f00's chain step: 5-min-rounded IEM n0q PNG fetch, palette-indexed
decode via the png crate, and per-POI max_reflectivity_dbz extraction
from a 25-pixel half-box (matches Elixir's DEFAULT_BOX_HALF).
The palette↔dBZ math and (lat, lon)↔pixel projection are bit-for-bit
copies of the Elixir formulas. 6 pure-math unit tests cover pixel
mapping, box clipping, and timestamp rounding. Network-live golden
fixture deferred until the full Stream A wiring lands.
Port of Microwaveprop.Commercial.build_link_lookup/2 +
link_degradation_from_lookup/3. The Elixir context stays intact
(LiveView sensor + SNMP poller); this Rust side is the read-only
consumer used by the f00 chain step (Phase 3 Stream A).
Three pure-math unit tests cover: haversine distance (DFW→Austin and
same-point zero), degradation_at aggregation behaviour, and
two-decimal rounding convention that Elixir's Float.round(_, 2)
imposes. SQL queries mirror the Elixir Ecto queries one-for-one —
baseline window, current point-in-time read, and MIN_BASELINE_SAMPLES
quality gate.
Pure port of lib/microwaveprop/propagation/duct.ex — the ITU-R P.834
duct detector that computes the modified refractivity M-profile and
finds regions where dM/dh < 0, then uses Bean & Dutton to derive the
minimum trapped frequency per duct.
Part of Stream A (f00 port): compute_duct_metrics and the per-cell
native-level duct merge both build on analyze(). Landing it now with
standalone unit tests lets later tasks (fetch_native_duct_grid, the
wgrib2 subprocess for native levels) treat it as a known-good
dependency instead of a concurrent port.
Three independent improvements in one commit:
1. Parallel band scoring (pipeline.rs):
- rayon par_iter across 23 bands replaces the serial for loop.
- All band files now write via try_join_all over spawn_blocking
instead of serializing one-at-a-time on NFS. Chain per-step
drops from ~60s to ~15-25s on a 4-core box.
2. Prometheus metrics (new metrics.rs):
- axum server on METRICS_ADDR (default :9100) exposes /metrics and
/health. Scraped by existing Prometheus via annotation.
- Histograms: chain step duration (by outcome), decode duration.
- Gauge: tasks in flight (RAII guarded so panics don't leak).
- Counter: chain steps by outcome.
- worker.rs records step duration and wraps each run in an
InFlightGuard.
3. HA + ordering fixes:
- deployment-grid-rs.yaml: replicas 1→2, required podAntiAffinity
spreads them across hosts, nodeAffinity prefers talos5 for one.
PROP_GRID_RS_PARALLELISM 4→3 per pod (6 concurrent across
replicas; smaller secondary-node footprint).
- Readiness probe on /health so rollouts wait for the runtime to
be alive.
- claim_next ordering: run_time ASC → DESC so the newest hourly
run drains before any stragglers from a broken prior run. Within
a run, forecast_hour ASC keeps nearest-first.
- grid_task_enqueuer sets kind="forecast" explicitly and updates
conflict_target to the new 3-column unique index introduced by
migration 20260419222624.
Extracts the memory-hostile HRRR fetch → decode → score pipeline for
forecast hours 1–18 into a separate Rust service (`prop-grid-rs`).
Elixir retains f00 with its native-duct + NEXRAD + commercial-link
enrichment; Rust handles the other 18 steps per hourly chain.
Hand-off via a new `grid_tasks` table (`FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` claim
from Rust, Postgrex `NOTIFY propagation_ready` back to Elixir). Rust
writes the same on-disk score-grid format Elixir already uses, to the
same `/data/scores` NFS tree. Phase 1 ships in shadow mode with
PROP_SCORES_DIR=/data/scores_shadow.
Rust crate layout at `rust/prop_grid_rs/` (1:1 module parity with the
Elixir source it ports):
- grid, region, band_config, scores_file, sounding_params
- scorer: all 10 factors + composite. Matches the Elixir scorer
byte-for-byte across 115 golden-fixture samples (5 scenarios
× 23 bands).
- decoder: wgrib2 subprocess + Fortran-record lola-binary parser
- fetcher: HRRR URL derivation + idx cache (1h TTL) + 8-way
parallel byte-range downloads with 429/5xx retry
- pipeline: end-to-end chain step, f00 rejected at the boundary
- db: sqlx grid_tasks claim/complete + propagation_ready NOTIFY
- bin/worker: tokio main loop, JSON logs, SIGTERM-safe
91 Rust tests + clippy -D warnings clean. 2,158 Elixir tests green.
Elixir additions:
- `GridTaskEnqueuer` seeds fh=1..18 rows from
`PropagationGridWorker.seed_chain/0`
- `NotifyListener` LISTEN → warm `ScoreCache` → PubSub fan-out
- `ShadowComparator` diffs prod vs shadow `.ntms` bodies
- `mix rust.golden` task writes the Rust-side golden fixture
k8s: new `deployment-grid-rs.yaml` pinned to talos5 (32 GB NUC) via
`prop-grid-rs=primary` nodeSelector + `workload=grid-rs:NoSchedule`
toleration, 512 Mi limit, sharing the existing NFS `/data` mount.
The plan document is at `plans/vivid-hatching-quail.md` (local to my
workstation); phases 2 (cutover) and 3 (talos5 concurrency tuning)
follow after 72h of shadow-mode parity.
