ChuckandClaude Opus 5 863e4a1ecd consolidate(perf): cut SD writes, log volume, and metrics churn (#486)
* fix(plugins): one bad metrics cache entry should not stop every plugin

Caught live on a rig: every plugin failing, once each, continuously.

    ERROR - src.plugin_system.plugin_manager - plugin geochron operation failed:
    ResourceMetrics.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument
    'consecutive_failures'

    ERROR - ... plugin text-display operation failed: ...
    ERROR - ... plugin news operation failed: ...
    ERROR - ... plugin odds-ticker operation failed: ...

with /api/v3/health reporting plugin_system: not_initialized while the display
process itself kept running and updating the panel.

`consecutive_failures` is a plugin_health field, not a metrics one.
get_metrics() does ResourceMetrics(**cached), which raises TypeError on a
single unrecognised key, and that exception escapes into plugin_manager and is
reported per plugin. One malformed cache entry takes the whole plugin system
down.

How a health-shaped record came to sit under a plugin_metrics key on that
machine is not established, and I could not finish the diagnosis: the rig went
back into its EIO failure mode partway through -- SSH resetting pre-banner,
systemctl unexecutable -- while the web API kept answering from RAM. Checked
before that: the cache files on disk are correctly shaped and separate, and
CacheManager.get() returns the right record for each key, so it is not a live
key collision. A restored backup mixing two machines' caches is the likeliest
explanation, and that rig had one restored onto it.

Either way the loader should not be brittle enough for the answer to matter.
plugin_health already repairs its records field by field rather than trusting
what is on disk; this does the same. Known fields are kept, unknown ones are
dropped and named once in the log so a genuine schema change stays visible
rather than being silently discarded, and a non-mapping entry no longer raises.

Keeping the known fields matters: discarding the record wholesale would throw
away real call counts and timings because of an unrelated stray key.

Mutation-checked: restoring ResourceMetrics(**cached) fails 6 checks, dropping
the whole record fails the field-preservation check, and dropping unknown
fields silently fails the logging check. 28 tests pass across the resource
monitor and plugin health suites.

* perf(health): stop rewriting a health record on every healthy cycle

Every successful plugin update called record_success(), which persisted the
record unconditionally. In steady state the only fields that had changed were
total_successes and last_success_time -- a counter and a timestamp that
health_monitor surfaces for display and that nothing reads back after a
restart. Nothing alerts on the age of last_successful_update; it is carried in
the metrics dataclass and shown.

Measured on a rig running 24 plugins, all steady-state (0 consecutive
failures, circuit closed): a five-minute sample caught 22 health-file
rewrites, about 4.4 a minute or 6,300 a day. Each write is ~400 bytes through
cache_manager.set(), which writes a file per call, so each one costs a
filesystem block plus an ext4 journal write.

That lands on an SD card, where the unit of cost is an erase-block cycle
rather than the bytes involved, and where wear is what eventually kills the
card. Two cards have already failed on the other rig with the same
signature -- unreadable block device, EIO on exec, sshd unable to read its
host keys.

The circuit breaker still has to survive a restart, so the write is kept for
exactly the fields it is rebuilt from: consecutive_failures, circuit_state,
circuit_opened_time, half_open_start_time. A failure, a circuit opening and a
recovery are all still written the moment they happen. In-memory state is
updated every time either way, so the health API and web UI show what they
always did.

Tested: 100 healthy cycles now perform zero writes after the first, the
counters remain accurate in memory, and a failure, a recovery and a
half-open-to-closed transition each still reach disk. One test kills and
rebuilds the tracker from the cache to prove the breaker's state genuinely
survives what is no longer written.

Mutation-checked both ways: persisting unconditionally again fails the
steady-state test, and widening _DURABLE_FIELDS to include last_success_time
fails it too. The 46 existing health tests pass.

* perf(vegas): trace the content path at DEBUG instead of INFO

plugin_adapter narrates every step of acquiring content from every plugin --
"Has get_vegas_content", "Native: calling get_vegas_content()", "Native
content returned None", "Has scroll_helper", per-item sizes -- once per plugin
per cycle, all at INFO.

Measured on a live rig: 13,408 log lines an hour, of which 13,366 were INFO
and 35 were WARNING. Roughly 223 lines a minute of string formatting on a Pi
that is also driving the panel, written through journald to the SD card, with
the 35 lines that actually indicate a problem buried among them.

Top repeated messages in that hour:

    717  Scroll progress: elapsed=... total_scrolled=.../... px
    399  [plugin] --> INCLUDED in Vegas scroll
    323  [plugin] content_type=static, display_mode=fixed
    195  [plugin] Has get_vegas_content: True
    195  [plugin] Native: calling get_vegas_content()
    168  [plugin] Native: get_vegas_content() returned None
    168  [plugin] Native content returned None        <- the same fact, twice

54 logger.info calls in plugin_adapter become logger.debug, along with the
per-frame scroll-progress line in scroll_helper. Together those are 3,174 of
the 13,408 lines an hour, a 23% cut, and the ~3,600 odds-manager lines are
addressed separately by ledmatrix-plugins#300.

Nothing is lost: the 19 warning/error/exception calls in the module are
untouched, so real failures still surface at their own level. This is a
logging-level change only -- no control flow, no behaviour.

One INFO call is deliberate and stays. The padding-strip message picks its
level at runtime (`logger.warning if (left and right) else logger.info`) and
test_vegas_plugin_adapter.py pins that choice; it survives because it is not a
direct logger.info call site. That test still passes.

Mutation-checked both ways: reintroducing a single INFO trace fails the guard,
and demoting the warning/error calls along with the trace fails a second guard
written for exactly that mistake. 537 vegas and scroll tests pass.

(cherry picked from commit 8d1e43c15a)

* fix(logging): give the journal the real severity of each line

Everything this process writes to stdout reaches the journal as PRIORITY=6,
whatever the Python level was, because journald has nothing else to go on.
Measured on a live rig over 24 hours:

    lines containing " - ERROR - "      55
    lines containing " - WARNING - "    13
    journald PRIORITY recorded          6, for every one of them

So `journalctl -p err -u ledmatrix` returns nothing while errors are being
logged, and `-p warning` likewise. Triage falls back to grepping message text,
which is slower and unreliable: during this audit a search for "oom" matched
the radar logging "zoom=9" twenty-four times and briefly looked like the OOM
killer had been firing.

systemd reads a leading "<N>" on each stdout line and takes it as the priority
(sd-daemon(3)), so a formatter that prefixes one costs no dependency. Every
line of a multi-line record is tagged, not just the first -- the journal splits
them, and an untagged continuation reverts to the default, which would leave
the body of a traceback filed as informational while its first line was an
error.

Applied only when JOURNAL_STREAM is set, which systemd sets for services whose
output it captures. Run from a terminal, in the emulator or under pytest the
prefixes would be literal noise, and the file handler keeps the plain
formatter for the same reason.

Mutation-checked three ways: prefixing unconditionally fails the
outside-systemd test, prefixing only the first line fails the multi-line test,
and mapping ERROR to 6 fails the level mapping. 39 tests pass across the
logging suites.

(cherry picked from commit 780fca6365)

* fix(logging): let callers see through the journald formatter wrapper

CI caught what local testing could not: two existing tests in
test_logging_config.py assert that setup_logging() selected a
StructuredFormatter or a ContextualFormatter, by checking the console
handler's formatter directly. Wrapping that formatter to tag each line with
its syslog priority makes those assertions false.

They passed locally and failed on the runner because the wrapper is applied
only when JOURNAL_STREAM is set -- absent in a terminal, present in CI. An
environment-dependent break, which is the kind that gets shipped.

The wrapper now exposes the formatter it delegates to, and those two tests
look through it. They are about which formatter format_type selects, and that
behaviour is unchanged; only the object they have to reach for moved.

Verified both ways this time: 39 tests pass with JOURNAL_STREAM set and with
it unset.

* perf(plugins): stop rewriting a plugin's metrics file on every call

Plugin metrics were persisted to the cache inside monitor_call, so every
call by every plugin rewrote a small JSON file. Measured on a running rig:
one plugin's plugin_metrics file changed nine times a minute, with fourteen
such files active. Each is around 350 bytes, which on ext4 costs a 4KB block
plus a journal entry, so the cost is dominated by the write itself rather
than the payload. Cache writes accounted for essentially all of that device's
2.4 MB/min of SD traffic, on a card that wears out and has already failed
twice on the other rig.

Metrics cannot be de-duplicated the way health state can, because call_count
changes on every call and the timings usually do too. So they are rate-limited
instead: at most one write per plugin per 30 seconds.

The in-memory copy stays authoritative and exact -- a plugin's call_count is
still precise the instant after it runs. Only the cross-process snapshot the
web UI reads is delayed, and telemetry up to half a minute old is still a fair
description of a long-running plugin.

reset_metrics clears the throttle timestamp, so a reset is not left showing a
deleted key for the rest of the interval.

Extrapolating the sampled rate, this takes metric writes from roughly 126 a
minute to 28. Health persistence, the other half of the churn, is handled
separately in #475.

Verified by reverting the throttle: the churn test then reports 50 writes for
50 calls. 88 tests pass across resource monitor, plugin system and web API.

* fix: use a monotonic clock and only mark metrics persisted once written

Two review findings on the throttle, both right.

The interval compared wall-clock timestamps. These devices have no RTC, so
the clock jumps by however far off boot-time was the moment NTP first syncs
-- a forward jump would allow an early write, a backward one would stall the
snapshot well past the interval. time.monotonic() is not subject to either.

The timestamp was also recorded before cache_manager.set(). A set() that
raised would buy the next interval's silence without leaving a snapshot
behind, which is the one case where skipping the write is least affordable.
Recorded after the write lands instead, so a failure is retried on the next
call.

Verified by restoring the original ordering: the new test then reports one
write where two are expected.

* Address all six review findings on the perf consolidation

CodeRabbit reported six; this is all six, checked against its own
"Actionable comments posted: 6" rather than against what I happened to
scroll past.

Three are real defects in the code:

1. _under_systemd() trusted the presence of JOURNAL_STREAM.

systemd publishes JOURNAL_STREAM as "dev:ino", and every child process
inherits it -- including one whose stdout has been redirected to a pipe
or a file. The variable outlives the descriptor it describes, so a
subprocess would decide it was talking to the journal and emit the "<N>"
priority prefixes as literal noise into that captured output. That is
exactly the noise the function exists to prevent. It now parses the pair
and fstats stdout, per systemd's own guidance, and returns False for
missing, malformed, mismatched, or unusable descriptors.

2. Cached metrics were not type-checked.

A dataclass does not enforce its annotations, so
ResourceMetrics(call_count="not a number") builds happily and only
fails later, deep inside monitor_call:

    TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

Values are now coerced to their declared type at load, where there is
still a cache key to name in the warning, and a value that cannot be
coerced starts the plugin fresh instead of arming a delayed failure.
A numeric string is accepted rather than discarded -- a JSON round-trip
can widen an int, and that is recoverable.

3. The first metrics snapshot was skipped for the first 30s of uptime.

_persist_metrics used 0.0 as the "never written" default. monotonic() is
time since boot on Linux and systemd starts this service at boot, so
`now - 0.0 < 30` was true for the first half-minute of every run: the
throttle swallowed the very first write, the one that matters most after
a restart. The sentinel is now None and the interval is only applied when
a previous write exists.

Three are tests that could pass without testing anything:

4. test_health_write_churn's fake cache stored by reference, so the
   tracker kept mutating the object already in the store -- a record
   could look persisted when no write had happened, which is precisely
   what test_durable_state_survives_a_restart exists to detect. Both
   directions now deep-copy, like a cache that serialises to a file.
   Verified: disabling the one real cache write now fails three tests.

5. test_values_of_the_wrong_type_do_not_raise asserted only that a
   dataclass had been constructed, which was true with the bad value
   still in it. It now asserts the loaded metrics are usable -- the
   field is numeric, and arithmetic on it does not raise -- across four
   kinds of bad value.

6. test_vegas_log_volume counted "logger.error(" in the source text,
   which also matches comments, docstrings and string literals --
   including that module's own docstring, which names those levels. A
   real error call could be demoted with the tally unmoved. It now walks
   the AST, reusing the helper already in the file. Verified: demoting
   all 18 warning/error/exception calls now fails the test.

Verified: every fix mutation-checked by reverting it and confirming the
matching test fails.

Drop a plugin's own cached scroll image so its visual is rebuilt.
Invalidating only this adapter's cache is not enough. A plugin that
composes a scroll strip hands back the *same* image every time until its
own cache is cleared — the sports plugins' ``get_vegas_content()``
regenerates only "if the cache is empty" — so without this a segment
keeps rendering whatever data it was first built from. That is how a
game that was live last night can still be displayed as live the next
morning.
Two layouts to cover: a helper directly on the plugin (stocks, news,
odds-ticker) and one owned by a scroll-display manager (the sports
scoreboards). ``cached_image`` and ``cached_array`` must be cleared
together, since the array is the image's numpy mirror and code paths
read whichever is convenient.

True if a cache was found and cleared.
