feat(api): publish restore Pod contract - #131
Conversation
Signed-off-by: Julien Mancuso <jmancuso@nvidia.com>
WalkthroughThe PR adds a versioned Restore Pod contract with public builder and validator APIs. Controllers and snapshotctl use the shared contract. Tests, documentation, and end-to-end workloads adopt the required resources and startup behavior. ChangesRestore Pod Contract
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds a new restore configuration field without the required optional/default annotation, creating a bounded API-contract follow-up for schema generation and consumers. It is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or after adding the marker. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

The test currently asserts the probe-substitution behavior and must change with

Two things need to change before this can merge:
-
If a container already has a startup probe, replace it with the restore-complete check. Don't return an error. Dynamo workers always have a startup probe, so
BuildRestorePodcan't actually be used on them today. -
The e2e test Pods don't match what the agent now requires, so tests against a real cluster will fail.
There's also a clash with #103 on the standby environment variable — please agree on that before either PR merges.
One release-note line would help: the agent now checks one-container restore Pods the same way it checks multi-container ones. Pods that used to work may now be rejected.

If the container already has a startup probe, this returns an error. Every Dynamo worker already has one (an HTTP check on /live). So this helper can't build a restore Pod for the Dynamo integration this PR is for.
The old code this PR deletes did the opposite: it kept the existing probe and just checked it more often.
Kubernetes only allows one startup probe. The restore check ("does the restore-complete file exist yet?") should take that slot. The app's /live URL doesn't work until restore has finished anyway. Leave the liveness and readiness probes alone — this PR already does that.
Please overwrite a startup probe that isn't the restore-complete check. Don't ask callers to delete the probe before calling this. That's the detail this helper is supposed to handle.

Fixed in d051f17. BuildRestorePod now replaces any destination startup probe with Snapshot's canonical cat /snapshot-control/restore-complete gate while preserving liveness and readiness probes. The test starts with an existing HTTP /live startup probe and verifies both replacement in the returned Pod and immutability of the input Pod.

The agent now runs the full restore-Pod check on every restore, including simple one-container ones that used to skip it.
These test Pods still use test -f to see if restore finished. The new rules require cat /snapshot-control/restore-complete. Same idea, different command, so the agent will reject them.
One-container test Pods will fail a second way: they mount snapshot-control with no subPath, and the checker now requires subPath to be the container's name. The multi-container tests already set that.
The pytest -m workload tests don't use a cluster, so they can't catch this. Please update these test Pods (the command, and subPath: main on the one-container mount). Making the agent's check looser, as in the other comment, would also fix it. Running the real cluster tests before merge would help.

Fixed in d051f17. The one-container manifest now mounts snapshot-control with subPath: main, and both one- and multi-container restore manifests use the canonical cat /snapshot-control/restore-complete gate. I also added a cluster-free manifest-contract test covering both shapes; all five workload tests pass. I did not run the GPU-backed cluster E2E locally.

The builder and the agent share the same "this probe must match exactly" check. That's a good check for "did we build the Pod we meant to." It's a bad check for "can we restore a Pod that someone else wrote."
A Pod that uses test -f instead of cat is still waiting on the same file, but the agent would refuse it. And if we later change the 1800-second limit, Pods built by an older version would start failing on the node.
Please keep the exact check in the builder. For the agent, only check what restore actually needs:
snapshot-controlis an emptyDir- each restore container mounts it at
/snapshot-controlwithsubPathset to that container's name SNAPSHOT_CONTROL_DIRpoints there- a startup probe waits for the restore-complete file
Don't require the exact command string or the exact timeout numbers.

Fixed in d051f17 without duplicating the structural rules. The builder now uses a private canonical-output validator, while public ValidateRestorePod (used by the node agent) enforces the shared stable runtime contract. Runtime validation accepts supported direct cat and test -f completion gates, including standard absolute executable paths, and deliberately does not pin probe timing. API and agent tests cover the version-tolerant path.

This PR and #103 disagree, and they touch the same file: #103 still edits operator/internal/protocol/restore.go, which this PR deletes. If this merges first, the usual git fix is to delete the file, which would throw away #103's work without anyone meaning to.
#103 wants Snapshot to own a neutral name (SNAPSHOT_RESTORE_STANDBY) and still set it on restore Pods. This PR stops setting it and says the app owner should.
Easy split: keep the names as public constants (so Dynamo has something to set), and keep this PR's choice not to set them here. Snapshot publishes the name; Dynamo sets it. Please agree on that before either PR merges.

Resolved in d051f17 with the proposed ownership split. Snapshot now exports RestoreStandbyModeEnv and deprecated LegacyRestoreStandbyModeEnv as public API names, but the generic builder injects neither. Dynamo or another application owner sets the convention its entrypoint supports. This also makes the #103 rebase boundary explicit: retain the public constants, but do not restore generic operator injection or the deleted protocol file.
