Summary

Portable launch used a process shim for systemctl, so its rootless Podman API ran without the systemd CPU delegation required by nested BuildKit. This change prepares the accepted current-user delegation fixture, proves a nested docker-container Buildx build through the exact Podman socket before onboarding, and restores runner state during always() cleanup.

Changes

  • Apply the three accepted fix(portable): preflight systemd user CPU delegation for rootless Podman #9188/fix(portable): preflight CPU delegation #9197 systemd CPU settings to the hosted current user with receipt-bound ownership checks and restoration of the prior user-manager and linger state.
  • Start podman.socket through current-user systemd and require the existing four-boundary Portable CPU preflight plus Podman CgroupManager=systemd.
  • Bootstrap and build a disposable scratch context with the docker-container Buildx driver through the exact DOCKER_HOST, then remove the builder and fixture-owned resources during always() cleanup.
  • Update the Portable workflow contract to reject the former shim path and require the delegation, Buildx, and cleanup boundaries, including restoration after a refused fixture cleanup.

Type of Change

  • Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor)
  • Code change with doc updates
  • Doc only (prose changes, no code sample modifications)
  • Doc only (includes code sample changes)

Quality Gates

  • Tests added or updated for changed behavior
  • Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification:
  • Tests not applicable — justification:
  • Sensitive paths changed (security, policy, credentials, preflight, onboarding, inference, runner, sandbox, or messaging)
  • Sensitive-path review completed or maintainer-approved waiver recorded — reviewer/approval link/justification: Fixture-only boundary follows the accepted fix(portable): preflight systemd user CPU delegation for rootless Podman #9188/fix(portable): preflight CPU delegation #9197 delegation settings; the exact workflow contract, actionlint with ShellCheck, and repository checks pass. Product ABI resolution, CPU limits, credentials, and supported runtime behavior are unchanged.
  • Non-success, skipped, or missing CI check accepted by maintainer — check name, approval link, and follow-up issue:

Documentation Writer Review

  • Documentation writer subagent reviewed the completed changes
  • Result: no-docs-needed
  • Evidence: Independent review of all three changed files, repeated after every cleanup review correction, found no public documentation or changelog impact because this is a main-only CI fixture and its workflow-contract tests. All changed explanatory text was reviewed with no findings.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The portable launch workflow now uses systemd drop-ins for CPU delegation, validates Podman and nested BuildKit operation, records runtime state, and performs guarded cleanup with conditional restoration. Tests verify provisioning, BuildKit, and cleanup behavior.

Changes

Portable profile workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Systemd delegation and BuildKit provisioning
.github/workflows/portable-profile-e2e.yaml, test/e2e/support/portable-profile-systemctl-shim.test.ts
The workflow installs root-owned systemd drop-ins, configures the user manager and Podman socket, validates CPU delegation, and runs a disposable Docker-container BuildKit build. Tests extract the workflow shell function and verify the systemd, cgroup, Podman, and BuildKit commands.
Recorded fixture and runtime cleanup
.github/workflows/portable-profile-e2e.yaml, test/e2e/support/portable-profile-systemctl-shim.test.ts, test/e2e/support/portable-profile-cgroup-cleanup-workflow.test.ts
Cleanup removes the BuildKit builder and temporary directories, stops user services, validates receipt-owned fixtures before deletion, and restores linger and the user manager only when previously enabled. Tests verify byte-identical file removal, preservation of modified files, restoration ordering, diagnostics, bounded execution, and receipt deletion.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a1a7c

The workflow’s cleanup can currently fail even when fixture contents are unchanged, and an earlier removal error can skip restoration of runner state; this may leave hosted runners altered and cause the CI job to fail, so the PR needs follow-up before merge.

Assert the export statement, not the GITHUB_ENV printf format.

Line 1403 matches XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=%s, which is the GITHUB_ENV write in the workflow. The behavior the test claims is that the shell exports XDG_RUNTIME_DIR before the Podman socket starts. Anchor the ordering check on export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR= so the assertion matches its claim.

Line 1396 pins an exact occurrence count for CPUWeight=100. A comment or an added slice drop-in breaks the test without changing behavior. Assert the two drop-in contents instead.

As per path instructions, "Prefer observable outcomes through the public boundary over source-text, private-shape, or mock-call assertions."

Wait for the user manager bus before the first --user call.

sudo systemctl start "user@${uid}.service" returns when the unit is active. The per-user D-Bus socket at ${runtime_dir}/bus can still be unavailable at that moment. The next command is /usr/bin/systemctl --user start podman.socket, and it fails with a bus connection error in that window. set -e then fails the job.

Add a bounded readiness loop after the manager start.

Match cleanup bytes with installation bytes.

install_fixture_drop_in writes a terminal newline. These cleanup expectations omit it. cmp therefore rejects every unchanged fixture, so cleanup leaves the drop-ins in place. The test uses a newline-terminated value at Line 1447 and does not catch these workflow call sites.

Report directory cleanup failures.

rmdir -- "$directory" || true hides a non-empty or failed removal. Cleanup can then report success while leaving a test-created systemd directory behind. Record the failure, continue restoration, and exit non-zero after teardown.

As per path instructions, always-run cleanup must continue teardown while reporting failures.

Match cleanup bytes to installed fixture bytes.

The fixture files are written with trailing newlines at Line 225, Line 229, and Line 233. The cleanup comparisons at Line 374 and Line 377 omit those newlines. cmp therefore rejects every unchanged fixture, leaves the root-owned drop-ins in place, and fails the cleanup step.

Accumulate failures from early cleanup commands.

The rm -rf at Line 332 and rm -f at Line 336 run under set -e without failure handling. A removal failure exits before receipt processing, manager restoration, and linger restoration. Also, cleanup_failed is initialized only at Line 348, so adding guards before that line would lose the recorded status when it is reset.

Initialize cleanup_failed before the first cleanup command, preserve the value, and guard both removals.

## Summary

Portable launch now gives the real current-user Podman service a
temporary `containers.conf` that selects systemd cgroups before the
socket starts. Cleanup now compares every owned fixture file with its
terminal newline, so unchanged drop-ins are removed.

## Changes

- Configure the Portable Podman CLI and user-systemd service with the
same temporary `containers.conf`.
- Fail before nested BuildKit with an observed-value diagnostic unless
Podman reports `CgroupManager=systemd`.
- Preserve terminal newlines in cleanup comparisons for the CPU drop-ins
and the new Podman fixture files.
- Extend the Portable workflow contract test for configuration order,
diagnostics, and cleanup ownership.

E2E root cause: Portable profile workflow / #9910 runner fixture
preparation and cleanup / Podman did not use systemd cgroups and cleanup
omitted expected terminal newlines

Signature: CPU-delegation preflight passed, Podman reported a cgroup
manager other than `systemd`, and cleanup rejected unchanged
newline-terminated drop-ins.

Scope: one #9910 Portable runner-fixture containment cause. Product ABI
fail-closed behavior is unchanged.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Bug Fixes**
* Improved portable launch reliability by ensuring Podman uses the
systemd cgroup manager.
* Added clearer validation errors when the required cgroup configuration
is unavailable.
* Enhanced cleanup to reliably remove temporary configuration and
service artifacts, including handling unexpected changes safely.
* **Tests**
* Expanded end-to-end coverage for cgroup configuration, service startup
ordering, temporary fixture permissions, and cleanup verification.
