Summary

This PR is the stacked provider-ownership follow-up to #1822.

#1822 finished the consumer-side W4 access refactor: payload/counter
operations go through PayloadPart / CounterPart and a neutral
mapped-region backend, while create_worker_chip_region(...) stays a
compatibility facade. Provider allocation was still one combined
worker-chip resource. This PR replaces that path with one logical region
that owns two independent physical allocations — PAYLOAD and COUNTER —
under a neutral ProviderRegionStore.

The public call shape is unchanged:

  • orch.create_worker_chip_region(worker_id=..., payload_bytes=..., counter_bytes=...)
  • region.payload_write(...) / region.payload_read(...)
  • region.counter(offset).notify(...) / test(...) / wait(...)
  • region.free() stays logical; physical close and provider release stay
    run-scoped

Worker-chip names remain only as the compatibility surface. The new
implementation centers are ProviderRegionStore, RegionInstance with
two mapping leases, RegionInstanceRegistry, and native
RegionInstanceView.

Why This PR Exists

#1822 gave later work a real consumer object and a shared mapped-region
backend. It did not change who allocates or releases the provider
backing. W5 still needs a store it can call without going through the
worker-chip combined create/release path.

This PR sits between #1822 and W5: consumer access is already
region-native after #1822; provider ownership must become a closed,
retry-free authority before W5 can delegate create/release.

What W5 Is

W5 is the delegated-transaction step in the comm-region breakdown.

A higher-level worker (for example L4) will declare a region over
endpoint members, delegate the actual allocate/import/release work to
the owning L3/chip side, and give that operation transaction semantics:
identity, membership freeze, partial-failure accounting, and an
all-member READY barrier. The initiator must be able to abort after a
partial import without guessing who owns the provider resource, and
without retrying backend cleanup.

#1770 said W5 needed a rollback-capable internal region instance.
#1822 gave that instance region-native payload/counter access. W5 still
cannot be built on the old combined worker-chip provider path: a
delegated hop must not import worker-chip types, and it must not treat
cleanup debt as something the initiator can reissue.

How This PR Serves W5

This PR does not implement W5. It freezes the provider contract W5 will
call:

  • ProviderRegionStore is the only allocate/describe/release authority.
    A later W5 adapter sits in front of the store. It does not become a
    second allocator, and it does not talk to worker-chip create/release.
  • PAYLOAD and COUNTER are two independent physical allocations under one
    logical id, so a delegated hop can import or close one part without a
    combined layout or a payload-relative counter.
  • Create failure runs exactly one store cleanup pass. Remaining debt is
    CLOSE_FAILED and is never retried. W5 can keep transaction
    diagnostics; it must not turn that debt into a second
    store.release.
  • Consumer close always attempts both mapping logical closes, then
    issues provider release once. A mapping-close diagnostic poisons the
    Worker and leaves the instance failed; it does not skip or defer that
    one-shot release.
  • The private allocate/release wire is versioned and commit-last. W5
    defines its own transaction wire later and does not reuse this mailbox
    codec.
  • Neutral store/control modules do not import worker-chip APIs, W2
    planning, or W5 identity. Compatibility create still goes through W2
    and W3.5; that path stays L3-local and is not the W5 adapter.

W5 remains a follow-up: transaction identity, journals, recursive
routing, duplicate/loss handling, and public create_region(...) are
out of this PR. Those layers must sit above this contract, not rewrite
it.

Provider Ownership

ProviderRegionStore records a side-effect-free shell for each part
before any OS/native work, materializes PAYLOAD and COUNTER
independently, and makes exactly one create-failure cleanup pass.

SIM realizes each admitted part as its own POSIX shm object. Onboard
realizes each part as its own VMM allocation/export. Independence is
proven by distinct native/store handles, not by numerical base
adjacency.

Private allocate/release use a versioned fixed-size control wire
(control_region_allocate / control_region_release). Handlers only
do transport, codec, store calls, local-view reply assembly, and one
publication-edge compensation release. There is no old/new dual decoder.

Consumer and Compatibility

Compatibility create still builds a real W2 BackendPlan and goes
through W3.5 admission before projecting a RegionAllocationSpec.
RegionInstance imports the two parts independently, both at offset
zero, and RegionInstanceRegistry owns run-scoped close, cleanup, and
sweep.

WorkerChipOrchRegion and WorkerChipOrchEndpoint are wrappers over
the owning instance and native RegionInstanceView. The six-scalar
task descriptor stays compatibility-only (ABI major 3). The old
combined store, combined native registry, old private create codec, and
WorkerHostRegionMapping are deleted.

Non-Goals

This PR intentionally does not add:

  • public create_region(...)
  • W5 delegated transactions, journals, membership freeze, or routing
  • a production HOST_CPU / HOST_DRAM provider
  • cross-node materialization
  • importer refcounts or provider-side task leases
  • a generic backend plugin registry
  • worker-chip queue/template redesign

Keep provider-agent types out of comm_region.py so the store cannot
depend on consumer materialization or worker-chip compatibility.
Give the provider agent a one-shot ownership store with independent
PAYLOAD/COUNTER shells, and realize admitted SIM VMM_WINDOW plans as
exclusively created named POSIX shm objects.
Replace the one-shot onboard VMM registry with begin/allocate_export/release
so partial native state stays reachable, cleanup is dependency-aware, and
ONBOARD VMM_WINDOW plans use an independent VmmAllocation per part.
Route allocate/release through the versioned PRCT wire and
ProviderRegionStore. Admit compatibility create through W2/W3.5
before spec projection, then materialize RegionInstance with two
offset-zero W4 leases and one-shot provider release.
Make RegionInstanceRegistry the lifecycle center: instance close goes
through the registry, run cleanup issues one close per live instance,
and Worker teardown sweeps leftovers without reissuing provider release.
Extract independent payload/counter spans and W4 poison rules from
the AICPU endpoint. WorkerChipOrchEndpoint keeps the legacy descriptor
and stricter sticky mapping while delegating the data plane.
WorkerChipOrchRegion holds the owning instance and a bumped
six-scalar descriptor. Data-path calls go through the instance
Parts; free() is logical only. Create materializes one instance
instead of a second combined mapping. ABI major 3 rejects the
old contiguous-layout meaning.
Compatibility create already materializes one RegionInstance with
two independent imports. Delete the old combined store, legacy
onboard create/close bindings, private create-reply codec, and
WorkerHostRegionMapping ownership so they cannot remain a second
implementation center.
- Inject create, release, transport, and decode failures without retry
- Prove public create uses an admitted W2 plan and two independent imports
- Reject ABI major 2 on the compatibility endpoint
One logical region records two shareable handles, two import/close
cycles, host payload/counter operations, and drain-before-release
across two consecutive run teardowns. mapping_bytes may exceed the
logical sizes after VMM granularity alignment.
- Narrow enum helpers and shared-memory buffers for pyright 3.9
- Split close/release decode branches to stay under ruff limits
- Drop the duplicate allocate-client decode test

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 453e7

The refactor changes provider ownership to split payload and counter allocations, but the current code still has native zeroing that may target the wrong device, release paths that can hide cleanup leaks, and control replies that can lose the actual allocation or release error. These correctness and resource-safety issues make the PR unsafe to merge until fixed.

Poem

A rabbit saw regions hop free,
With handles stored carefully.
Payload and counters now share
A ledger of cleanup and care.
“No stale mapping shall remain!”
The bunny bounced through tests again.

Return the release error directly instead of raising it to the local handler.

Lines 570 and 574 raise RuntimeError, and the except BaseException at line 576 catches those same raises and returns them. The control flow is a self-catch. Building and returning the error reads more directly, and the except block then covers only real client failures.

Consider rejecting a zero base in the payload span validator.

region_validate_payload_span checks the size and the overflow but accepts base == 0. region_validate_counter_span implicitly rejects base == 0... it does not, because 0 % 64 == 0.

A descriptor with payload_base == 0 and a positive payload_bytes therefore passes assign, and payload_write then copies to an address derived from a null base. worker_chip_orch_comm_validate_desc does not reject a zero base either, so the view is the last gate.

Adding span.base != 0 to both validators makes the invalid descriptor fail at CONSTRUCT with INVALID_VIEW instead of faulting during the first access.

-    return span.logical_bytes > 0 && !region_add_overflows(span.base, span.logical_bytes);

Preserve the specific descriptor failure reason.

install_view_or_error collapses two distinct failures into the single message "invalid descriptor". worker_chip_orch_comm::validate_desc returns a specific WorkerChipOrchCommValidationError, and view_.error().message holds the view reason. Neither reaches error_.

Recording the validator enum name or forwarding the view message makes a rejected descriptor diagnosable from the error struct alone.

Do not retry _region_vmm_release in the fixture teardown, and do not discard both failures.

The teardown calls _region_vmm_release(handle) a second time after the first call fails, then swallows every exception. This contradicts the one-shot release contract that the tests in this file assert, for example test_region_vmm_failed_unmap_skips_va_and_physical and test_region_vmm_physical_free_failure_retains_record_without_reissue. It also hides a real leak, because neither failure is reported. Ruff flags the same lines as BLE001 and S110.

Derive the imported part name from the descriptor, not from leases length.

fake_import names the part "payload" when leases is empty and "counter" otherwise. leases grows only on a successful import, so a failed first import leaves the next call named "payload" again. No current test reaches that state, but the naming silently depends on success rather than on which part is being imported.

Use a call counter, or read the part from the passed export, so the recorded name always matches the part.

Consider making the expected exception type part of the parameter set.

pytest.raises((RuntimeError, RegionControlError), match=match) accepts either type for every parameter case. A regression that changes the raised type for one case still passes. Add the expected type to each parametrize entry so each case pins its own contract.

Record why the resource-tracker unregister failed.

The bare except Exception: pass hides every unregister failure, so a leaked tracker entry produces no signal. Ruff reports S110 and BLE001 here.

Narrow the exception type and log the failure into local_cleanup_details or a module logger.

Remove the dependency on SharedMemory._prepend_leading_slash.

The True fallback prevents failure when the attribute is absent, but the token format still depends on private CPython state. Generate the token without a leading slash and normalize it only in _posix_shm_create_name and _unlink_posix_shm_token.

258-262: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Avoid the full-size host buffer and reject a zero-length range.

vmm_zero_bytes allocates nbytes host bytes for every call. A payload-sized zeroing therefore doubles host memory use. If nbytes is 0, zeros.data() may be nullptr and the call still reaches aclrtMemcpy.

Zero in fixed-size chunks and return early for an empty range.

Inline comments:
In `@python/bindings/task_interface.cpp`:
- Around line 1474-1495: Update region_vmm_zero_range to call
region_vmm_bind_device for the allocation before invoking the zeroing stage,
matching the device-binding behavior of region_vmm_allocate_export,
region_vmm_release, and RegionMapping::copy_to.
- Around line 1406-1420: Update region_vmm_release so failures from
region_vmm_bind_device are caught, stored in record.first_cleanup_failure before
rethrowing, and remain observable on subsequent release calls. Preserve the
existing release_once_done behavior while ensuring a bind failure records the
cleanup debt.

In `@python/simpler/comm_provider_control.py`:
- Around line 742-745: Update decode_release_reply to permit resource_id 0 only
when the reply tag is RELEASE_ERROR; continue raising RegionControlError for
zero resource IDs on all other tags.
- Around line 877-882: Separate shared-memory close and unlink cleanup so a
BufferError from close cannot prevent unlink; extract a _discard_shm helper and
use it in both the current cleanup block and ProviderReleaseClient._issue,
preserving suppression of the existing cleanup exceptions.
- Around line 800-823: Update handle_ctrl_region_allocate to catch
RegionControlError with STORE_LIFECYCLE from store.allocate_and_export and
encode a committed typed lifecycle-error reply instead of leaving the reply
EMPTY. Add or reuse the allocate reply representation and encoder for this
lifecycle condition, while preserving existing request-error, allocation-error,
success, and release behavior.

In `@python/simpler/comm_region.py`:
- Around line 457-468: Update the raise in the cleanup-debt branch of the
RegionAllocationError handler to explicitly chain the new terminal error from
the caught exception using the existing exc binding. Preserve the current
_record_unreclaimable and _fail_terminal behavior.

Apply the same fix in `@python/simpler/worker.py` around lines 8320 - 8339: The
same missing explicit exception cause occurs on both rollback raise paths.

In `@src/common/platform/include/aicpu/worker_chip_orch_endpoint.h`:
- Line 155: In the endpoint enum-conversion logic around notify and the related
endpoint methods, add compile-time static_assert checks verifying that every
corresponding endpoint and region enumerator has the same underlying numeric
value. Cover all enum mappings used by RegionNotifyOp and related region
operations, so reordering either enum fails compilation rather than allowing an
incorrect conversion; leave the runtime behavior unchanged.
- Around line 249-251: Update adopt_view_error() so
RegionViewErrorKind::ISSUED_FAILURE from PAYLOAD_WRITE and counter load/store
operations maps to a distinct local-operation WorkerChipEndpointErrorKind rather
than SIGNAL_PROTOCOL; preserve SIGNAL_PROTOCOL only for actual signal-protocol
failures.

In `@tests/ut/py/test_worker/test_comm_provider_control.py`:
- Around line 216-223: Update the test around decode_allocate_reply to assert
that the unpacked payload and counter values are None, matching the sibling
non-success-tag test and eliminating the unused bindings reported by Ruff. Keep
the existing assertions for the allocation error and decoded fields unchanged.

platform-specific format.

In `@python/simpler/comm_region.py`:
- Around line 561-577: Update _release_provider_resource so CLEANUP_INCOMPLETE
and UNKNOWN_RESOURCE construct and return their RuntimeError values directly
instead of raising them into the local except block; retain the existing
committed-state handling and let the except BaseException path cover only
release-client failures.

In `@src/common/platform/include/aicpu/region_instance_view.h`:
- Around line 159-166: Update region_validate_payload_span and
region_validate_counter_span to require span.base != 0 in addition to their
existing size, alignment, and overflow checks, so descriptors with null bases
are rejected during view construction.
- Around line 464-466: Update the aliases near RegionInstanceView so PayloadPart
and CounterPart do not enter the global namespace; either place them in an
appropriate namespace or rename them to RegionPayloadPart and RegionCounterPart,
and update their uses such as those propagated through
worker_chip_orch_endpoint.h.

In `@src/common/platform/include/aicpu/worker_chip_orch_endpoint.h`:
- Around line 211-222: Update install_view_or_error to distinguish descriptor
validation failures from view_.assign failures: retain the specific
worker_chip_orch_comm::validate_desc result in the error message using the
existing worker_chip_orch_comm_validation_error_to_string helper if available,
and otherwise use a branch-specific static message; for assignment failures,
forward view_.error().message. Preserve the BAD_DESCRIPTOR error kind and INIT
operation.

In `@tests/ut/py/test_worker/test_comm_provider_control.py`:
- Around line 364-378: Update the test containing handle_ctrl_region_allocate to
accept the monkeypatch fixture and replace control.encode_allocate_success_reply
via monkeypatch.setattr instead of direct assignment and manual restoration;
preserve the existing RuntimeError assertion and release-count checks.
- Around line 474-491: Remove the duplicate
test_allocate_client_transport_failure_does_not_call_store test, or consolidate
it with test_allocate_client_transport_failure_does_not_call_store_or_release by
retaining the distinguishing mailbox call-count assertion. Keep a single
transport-failure test covering the required no-store and no-release behavior.

In `@tests/ut/py/test_worker/test_comm_provider.py`:
- Around line 1064-1075: Update the fixture teardown around _region_vmm_release
so each newly discovered handle is released at most once; remove the retry and
broad exception swallowing, collect any release failures, and report them once
after cleanup so teardown errors are visible.
- Around line 678-685: Introduce one shared mutating factory helper for the
affected per-part tests, replacing each duplicated _factory wrapper and direct
FakeShellFactory.__call__ indirection. Have the helper create the
FakeShellFactory, invoke it normally, apply the supplied mutation to the
returned shell, and return the factory plus wrapper; update the four tests to
provide only their specific mutation.

In `@tests/ut/py/test_worker/test_comm_region.py`:
- Around line 536-545: Update fake_import so the part name is derived from the
import sequence or the passed export descriptor rather than leases length,
ensuring the second import is always recorded as “counter” even when the first
import fails; preserve the existing lease creation, failure injection, and call

- Around line 470-480: The parameterized test for _create_worker_chip_region

macOS SharedMemory can map more than the 48/232/24/48-byte wire
frame; decode the prefix instead of requiring an exact mapping size.
Close-replay fixtures now allocate MAILBOX_SIZE so shutdown stores
do not write past a 4096-byte buffer.
macOS page-padded reply mappings made peek_allocate_reply_resource_id
return 0, so a committed SUCCESS that later failed decode skipped
provider release. Handler and POSIX-reopen tests now use the prefix
and the create-name helper instead of exact mapping size or a
leading-slash token.
Record allocate commit only after a fully decoded SUCCESS reply, and
keep child teardown, bind/zero, and POSIX shm cleanup all-attempt.
Extract one neutral RegionInstanceView semantics center, drop
compatibility lifecycle mirrors, and route data-plane failures through
the region instance registry.
Keep control-SHM disposal duck-typed and pin test annotations so
pyright on Python 3.10 accepts the focused worker-chip cases.
SharedMemory.name is a property, so a str-attribute Protocol rejected
both the real SHM objects and the test doubles.
Closed-loop L3-L2 orch/queue examples write payload and counters
after submit_next_level. That path uses the mapped host view, not
the mailbox, so the submit-refusal stays on close only.
