No behavior change: 99/99 jest tests, HTTP session flow re-smoke-tested through the lazy path. The `@ruvnet/ruview` harness CLI was profiled too and left alone — 50 ms vs the ~29 ms bare `node -e ''` floor on the same box (MEASURED), i.e. already near the interpreter floor with zero dependencies. ### Fixed +- **FastAPI health/metrics endpoints event-loop starvation.** Calling `psutil.cpu_percent(interval=1)` blocked the single-threaded async event loop for 1.0 second on every health check or metrics collection tick, stalling all incoming requests and WebSocket operations. Fixed by changing `cpu_percent` to use non-blocking `interval=None` and offloading all blocking OS metrics gathering to background thread pools via `asyncio.to_thread`. Verified event loop responsiveness via concurrency regression tests. - **EngineBridge now honors `WDP_GUARD_INTERVAL_US`/`WDP_SOFT_GUARD_US`/`WDP_TDM_SLOTS`+`WDP_TDM_SLOT_US`** (#1309, PR #1312, @erichkusuki). The governed trust path previously built its multistatic fuser from a hardcoded `MultistaticConfig::default()` (60 ms guard), so multi-node deployments with WiFi/ESP-NOW time sync (10–150 ms drift) failed every governed cycle regardless of configuration — while the startup log claimed the override took effect. New `StreamingEngine::set_multistatic_config()`; `EngineBridge::new()` takes an `Option` threaded from the same env-derived config as `AppState.multistatic_fuser`. Hardware-verified on a live 2-node ESP32-S3 setup (90 s window, 0 fusion errors; previously every cycle failed). - **`/api/v1/stream/pose` WebSocket reachable with `RUVIEW_API_TOKEN` set + dashboard bearer-token field** (#1310, PR #1313, @erichkusuki). Browsers cannot attach an `Authorization` header to a WS upgrade, so the Live Demo pose stream always failed when auth was on; the path is now on a narrow exact-match exemption list (mirrors `/ws/sensing`), with a regression test pinning that the exemption doesn't leak to other `/api/v1/*` paths. The QuickSettings panel gains an "API Access" field storing the bearer token in `localStorage`; the token is applied at `api.service.js` module load so the very first request carries it. - **Display-less DevKitC-1 boards: `sdkconfig.defaults.devkitc` build overlay** (#1308, PR #1311, @erichkusuki). The ADR-045 runtime display probe false-positives on stock ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1 (floating QSPI pins), which silently skipped the RuView#893 MGMT+DATA CSI upgrade and collapsed CSI yield to 0 pps. The overlay compiles display support out (`has_display` constant-false). Also fixes stale `espressif/idf:v5.2` README references to v5.4 (source requires `esp_driver_uart`, IDF ≥5.3). Hardware-verified on 2× DevKitC-1-N16R8 (0 → 40–45 pps). diff --git a/archive/v1/src/api/routers/health.py b/archive/v1/src/api/routers/health.py index fdc321eb..013fa35c 100644 --- a/archive/v1/src/api/routers/health.py +++ b/archive/v1/src/api/routers/health.py @@ -2,6 +2,7 @@ Health check API endpoints """ +import asyncio import logging import psutil from typing import Dict, Any, Optional @@ -168,7 +169,7 @@ async def health_check(request: Request): overall_status = "degraded" # Get system metrics - system_metrics = get_system_metrics() + system_metrics = await asyncio.to_thread(get_system_metrics) uptime_seconds = (datetime.now() - _APP_START_TIME).total_seconds() @@ -263,11 +264,12 @@ async def get_health_metrics( ): """Get detailed system metrics.""" try: - metrics = get_system_metrics() + metrics = await asyncio.to_thread(get_system_metrics) # Add additional metrics if authenticated if current_user: - metrics.update(get_detailed_metrics()) + detailed = await asyncio.to_thread(get_detailed_metrics) + metrics.update(detailed) return { "timestamp": datetime.utcnow().isoformat(), @@ -300,7 +302,7 @@ def get_system_metrics() -> Dict[str, Any]: """Get basic system metrics.""" try: # CPU metrics - cpu_percent = psutil.cpu_percent(interval=1) + cpu_percent = psutil.cpu_percent(interval=None) cpu_count = psutil.cpu_count() # Memory metrics diff --git a/archive/v1/src/services/metrics.py b/archive/v1/src/services/metrics.py index 6799ec7d..52b57c03 100644 --- a/archive/v1/src/services/metrics.py +++ b/archive/v1/src/services/metrics.py @@ -180,21 +180,24 @@ class MetricsService: async def _collect_system_metrics(self): """Collect system-level metrics.""" try: - # CPU usage - cpu_percent = psutil.cpu_percent(interval=1) + # Query OS metrics in a background thread to prevent blocking the event loop + def gather_metrics(): + return ( + psutil.cpu_percent(interval=None), + psutil.virtual_memory().percent, + psutil.disk_usage('/'), + psutil.net_io_counters() + ) + + cpu_percent, mem_percent, disk, network = await asyncio.to_thread(gather_metrics) + + # Record metrics on the main loop self._metrics["system_cpu_usage"].add_point(cpu_percent) + self._metrics["system_memory_usage"].add_point(mem_percent) - # Memory usage - memory = psutil.virtual_memory() - self._metrics["system_memory_usage"].add_point(memory.percent) - - # Disk usage - disk = psutil.disk_usage('/') disk_percent = (disk.used / disk.total) * 100 self._metrics["system_disk_usage"].add_point(disk_percent) - # Network I/O - network = psutil.net_io_counters() self._metrics["system_network_bytes_sent"].add_point(network.bytes_sent) self._metrics["system_network_bytes_recv"].add_point(network.bytes_recv) diff --git a/archive/v1/tests/unit/test_health_concurrency.py b/archive/v1/tests/unit/test_health_concurrency.py new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2d3e10c1 --- /dev/null +++ b/archive/v1/tests/unit/test_health_concurrency.py @@ -0,0 +1,58 @@ +import asyncio +import time +import os +import sys + +# Add project root and archive/v1 to sys.path so we can import src modules +sys.path.append(os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "../../../../"))) +sys.path.append(os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "../../"))) + +from archive.v1.src.api.routers.health import get_system_metrics + +async def ticker(): + """Asynchronous background ticker to measure event loop latency/freezes.""" + ticks = [] + for _ in range(15): + ticks.append(time.time()) + await asyncio.sleep(0.1) + return ticks + +async def run_test(): + print("Starting concurrency verification test...") + + # Start the ticker background task + ticker_task = asyncio.create_task(ticker()) + + # Let ticker run for a few ticks + await asyncio.sleep(0.3) + + print("Calling get_system_metrics offloaded to background thread...") + start_time = time.time() + + # Query system metrics using to_thread (simulating FastAPI request) + metrics = await asyncio.to_thread(get_system_metrics) + + duration = time.time() - start_time + print(f"get_system_metrics took: {duration:.4f}s") + + # Wait for the ticker to complete + ticks = await ticker_task + + # Calculate gaps between consecutive ticks to check for event loop freezes + gaps = [ticks[i+1] - ticks[i] for i in range(len(ticks)-1)] + max_gap = max(gaps) + + print(f"All tick gaps: {[round(g, 3) for g in gaps]}") + print(f"Max event loop freeze: {max_gap:.4f}s") + + # In pre-fix code, psutil.cpu_percent(interval=1) blocks for 1.0s, + # causing a gap of >1.0s.
