Substrate fix: two-line change to lib/erlang/runtime.sx that lets
http-listen handler routes call gen_server:call without deadlocking.
1. er-sched-step-alive!: pass :pending-args (when set) to the
initial-fun call instead of always passing an empty list.
Default behavior (no field) stays (list) — drop-in safe.
2. er-bif-http-listen sx-handler: instead of er-apply-fun handler
inline (which blows up on receive's er-suspend-marker because
the connection thread has no scheduler step on its stack),
create a real er-process with :initial-fun = handler and
:pending-args = (list req-pl), then er-sched-run-all! to drain.
Any receive (e.g. gen_server:call) suspends + resumes inside
the SX scheduler frame the process owns. Read :exit-result
for the response proplist; marshal back to SX dict.
Investigation arc (see plans/fed-sx-milestone-2.md Blockers #4 +
Progress log):
- loops/fed-prims bf8d0bf2 diagnosed it as Erlang-substrate, not
OCaml mutex (Pattern A wrong, Pattern B right but sketchy).
- First Pattern B attempt failed: tried er-spawn-fun on a raw SX
lambda, hit (er-fun? fv) gate. Connection-thread bisect
pinpointed the exact line.
- Real fix: use the existing er-fun (user's handler) directly,
but feed it via :pending-args so step-alive's hardcoded
(list) doesn't drop the request arg.
Acceptance:
- new next/tests/smoke_kernel_route.sh: 6/6 over real HTTP
(welcome /, /actors/alice, /actors/alice/outbox with
gen_server-backed tip, /actors/alice/inbox, unknown-actor,
via http_server:start(P, [{kernel, nx_kernel}])).
- next/tests/http_server_tcp.sh: 5/5 (bumped wait_bound from
30s to 180s — cold boot is slow under sibling-loop CPU load
and the per-handler scheduler ramp adds a small margin).
- Erlang conformance: 761/761.
Step 12's two-instance smoke test is now unblocked — its full
Follow / Accept / Note flow can layer on top of this kernel-route
surface. m2 plan updated.
Pre-existing httpc_request.sh flakiness ("Undefined symbol:
http-request" on the live-call epochs) reproduces WITHOUT this
change — see git stash A/B in the investigation. Unrelated.
