82bcce8867 enhance: classify segcore errors across producers and enforce classification end-to-end (#50768)
## What

Consume the producer-owned error classification at the segcore boundary
and make the whole C++→Go classification drift-proof, so a segcore error
is classified as **input** (caller's fault, non-retriable),
**transient** (retriable) or **permanent** (non-retriable) instead of
flattening to `UnexpectedError(2001)` or carrying the wrong retry
default.

Design + tracking: #50903.

## Changes

- **T1** — register the storage fallback pair in
`pkg/util/merr/segcore.go`: `StorageError(2044)` non-retriable,
`StorageTransientError(2045)` retriable.
- **T2** — `KnowhereStatusToErrorCode` → a switch with **no `default` +
`-Werror=switch`** over the full `knowhere::Status`; add build-path
variant `KnowhereBuildStatusToErrorCode` so a build-time OOM / disk read
stays **retriable** instead of collapsing into a permanent
`IndexBuildError`.
- **T3/T4** — `ArrowStatusToErrorCode` delegates to the producer's
`milvus_storage::ToSegcoreError` (retires milvus's duplicate mapper);
audited and routed **25 storage arrow-status sites** that were
collapsing to `2001` through the single mapper (extracted to
`storage/StatusToErrorCode.h`), always preserving the arrow sub-code in
the message.
- **T5** — unmapped-code observability: `UnmappedSegcoreCodeTotal{code}`
counter + rate-limited WARN via an observer hook (merr is a leaf
package); registered on QueryNode and DataNode. Unknown code degrades to
non-retriable, never panics.
- **T6** — codegen + compile-time enforcement: a generated `SegcoreCode`
type (from milvus-common's `EasyAssert.h`) + an exhaustive
`classForCode` switch marked `//exhaustive:enforce`, with the
`exhaustive` golangci-lint enabled opt-in — a new C++ code that is not
classified fails lint (the C++→Go analog of `-Werror=switch`).
- **§3 B-tier** — classify `marisa` and `simdjson` errors
(build/load/parse) instead of collapsing to `2001`, sub-code in the
message; simdjson optional-access (`NO_SUCH_FIELD`/`INCORRECT_TYPE`)
stays a benign skip; the `loon_ffi` FFI boundary is untouched.
- **Boundary hardening (adversarial self-review of this PR's own diff)**
— closed the escapes that would defeat the mapping above: a `throw e;`
slicing rethrow in `LoadWithStrategy` that destroyed the very codes the
columnar-read mapping attaches (bare `throw;` now), the same slice in
`MinioChunkManager::PreCheck`; `GetCoreMetrics` /
`EstimateLoadIndexResource` / init-and-config entry points that could
let an exception cross the C ABI and terminate the process; and every
remaining extern-C entry that caught only `std::exception` now ends in
`catch(...)` via the shared `CGoCatch.h` macros.
- **Pin + semantics** — bump `milvus-storage_VERSION` to `11f8a36` (the
milvus-io/milvus-storage#574 merge, which also contains #575) and align
the no-detail `IOError` expectation with the settled semantics: the
producer tags every known-transient failure with a retryable
`ExtendStatusDetail`, so a bare `IOError` with no detail is unclassified
and deliberately falls back to permanent `StorageError(2044)` — a
stripped-detail NotFound now degrades to non-retriable (safe) instead of
retriable (retry storm on a permanent 404).

- **Wire pass-through (client-visible)** — a segcore error now reaches
the client with its ORIGINAL code (2009 stays 2009, 2024 stays 2024)
instead of collapsing to the `ErrSegcore(2000)` umbrella with the real
code buried in the message. Family identity for `errors.Is` is preserved
via inner/Unwrap; input/system/retriable classification unchanged.
Guardrails: only in-band (2000-2099) codes pass through (garbage still
collapses to 2000); cross-family mappings (2046 → wire 110) keep their
sentinel's code. `ErrSegcoreUnsupported`/`ErrSegcorePretendFinished`
move to the C++ values they represent (2001→2003, 2002→2033) — their old
numbers squatted on C++ UnexpectedError/NotImplemented and would
false-match under code-based `errors.Is`. Verified end-to-end on a live
standalone (ef<k reaches the client as 2042, unsupported tokenizer as
2001); the three e2e assertions pinning the old 2000 updated.

- **Remaining code-destroying sites** — the three classes that still
swallowed a producer's classification before the cgo boundary are now
gone from `internal/core/src` and `internal/core/thirdparty`:
status-consuming `AssertInfo` (104 → 0, incl. ~47 arrow builder paths
whose commonest failure is OOM, now retriable `MemAllocateFailed`
instead of a permanent 2001), bare `throw
std::runtime_error/logic_error/bad_alloc` (68 → 0 — these were not
`SegcoreError`, so they collapsed to 2001 *and* falsely fired the
untyped-exception observer), and `throw fmt::format(...)` (12 → 0 — it
throws a `std::string`, which `catch (std::exception&)` cannot see at
all). tantivy's 73 `AssertInfo(res.result_->success, ...)` (plus 10
raw-`RustResult` stragglers found later) now classify the rust error —
originally by its Display prefix, since replaced by a proper
`#[repr(i32)]` discriminant carried in `RustResult.error_code` (see the
Aug-10 update below). Typed `ThrowInfo` sites: 894 → 1081. The ~1500
genuine invariant asserts are untouched — 2001 is correct for them. The
long-standing FIXME about `err_code` not surviving the nested LOON FFI
boundary is also resolved, delegating to
`milvus_storage::ToSegcoreErrorCode` rather than duplicating its table.

## Verification

**Verified in this PR:**

- **Mapping correctness (unit-tested, in-process):**
`test_knowhere_status_mapping.cpp` / `test_storage_error_code.cpp` /
`test_exec.cpp` cover every mapper branch (knowhere Status incl. the
build variant, arrow/extend status incl.
`AwsErrorNotFound→ObjectNotExist(2017)`, permanent-S3 vs transient),
plus `FailureCStatus` code preservation and both observer hooks firing.
- **Code projection to Go (one hop, unit-tested):** `segcore_test.go`
pins `classForCode` for every generated code and asserts
`merr.Status(err).GetRetriable()` for transient codes; the T6 generator
is idempotent and the `exhaustive` lint fails on an unclassified code.
- **Full C++ suite:** 8213/8223 unit tests pass locally (10 skipped;
Azure connectivity tests excluded), 8648 in CI, rebased on current
master (one pre-existing, unrelated concurrency test excluded:
`GrowingConcurrentReopenTest` deadlocks deterministically on current
master with or without this PR — rwlock writer starvation in
growing-segment reopen code this PR does not touch; reported
separately).
- **Static audit (grep-verifiable):** every storage arrow-status
consumption site on the read path routes through
`ArrowStatusToErrorCode`, and every extern-C boundary ends in a
`catch(...)` tail.

**Explicitly NOT verified here (follow-up):**

- **Runtime fault injection.** No S3 throttle / 404 / OOM / corrupt-file
failure has been triggered end-to-end in a running cluster. Transient
codes reach Go with `retriable=true` (unit-tested projection), but the
downstream consumption — `lb_policy` replica reroute on
`merr.IsRetryableErr`, index/analyze scheduler retry — is pre-existing
logic from #50221 and has **not** been driven by a real segcore
transient error in this PR. This PR preserves classification for
observability and correct retry defaults; the retry behavior itself is
exercised only by its own pre-existing tests.

## Dependencies

- ~~milvus-common `StorageTransientError(2045)` —
zilliztech/milvus-common#102~~ **merged**.
- ~~milvus-storage `ToSegcoreError` / packed `ExtendStatusCode` —
milvus-io/milvus-storage#575 + #574~~ **merged; pin bumped in-tree to
`11f8a36`**.
- ~~knowhere three-way classification — zilliztech/knowhere#1704~~
**merged** (the milvus-side `KnowhereStatusToErrorCode` → thin delegate
to knowhere's own `ToSegcoreErrorCode` is a follow-up, gated on a
knowhere version bump).
- ~~milvus-common untyped-cgo-exception observer —
zilliztech/milvus-common#112~~ **merged and released as `1.0.0-1fd1160`;
the pin now points at the published package.** All dependencies are in.

## Update (Aug 10) — full-population audit, LOON path, runtime
observability

The originally deferred FFI/LOON path is now **done on the milvus
side**, and the audit was extended from the three grep-able classes to
the *entire* 2001-producing population:

- **Every remaining 2001 site read.** All 1,517 `AssertInfo` (four
sweeps: errno fingerprint, failure-keyword messages, condition
morphology, and finally **data provenance** — does the guarded value
come from disk/network?) and all 198 explicit
`ThrowInfo(UnexpectedError)` sites. ~290 were externally-triggerable and
now carry typed codes: file/remote IO ->
`FileOpen/Create/Read/WriteFailed` (retriable), mmap/allocation ->
`MmapError`/`MemAllocateFailed` (retriable), persisted-format damage
(CRC/magic/parquet meta/index-meta keys) -> `DataFormatBroken`,
deployment config -> `ConfigInvalid`, request content ->
`InvalidParameter`, a cancel-race -> `FollyCancel`. The ~1,400 kept
sites are genuine invariants or cgo contracts where 2001 is the correct
report.
- **Two infinite-retry bugs.** Statically-impossible conditions
(index_type x metric blacklist, per-type metric allowlists,
json/geometry index gates) threw 2001 -> generic retry -> the build task
spun forever; they now throw `Unsupported`, which `getStateFromError`
maps to a terminal `JobStateFailed`. Missing
`index_type`/`metric_type`/`min_gram`/`max_gram` keys in persisted index
meta had the same loop on the load path; they are `DataFormatBroken`
now.
- **knowhere `expected<>` bypasses closed** (8 sites in
`QueryResult.h`/`CachedSearchIterator`): iterator failures went through
`AssertInfo` and discarded the Status knowhere had already classified;
they now route through `KnowhereStatusToErrorCode`, so an OOM/disk
failure during search iteration stays retriable. Preflight rewraps in
`segment_c`/`boost_score` similarly preserved the original
`SegcoreError` code instead of flattening to 2001+string.
- **tantivy discriminant over the FFI.** `RustResult` now carries
`error_code` (`#[repr(i32)] TantivyBindingErrorCode`,
cbindgen-exported); the C++ mapper switches on the enum instead of
parsing the Display text, and the inner `tantivy::TantivyError` is
discriminated too (`IoError/Open*Error` -> Io/retriable,
`DataCorruption/IncompatibleIndex` -> DataCorruption). Wording changes
on the rust side can no longer silently degrade classification.
- **LOON / FFI path (the deferred item), milvus side complete.** The Go
funnel `HandleLoonFFIResult` dropped `err_code` entirely and wrapped
every failure as `ErrLoonTransient` — a 404/access-denied/corrupt-data
retried as transient. It now classifies by the producer's own
`loon_ffi_is_retryable_errcode`; permanent failures carry the new
`ErrLoonPermanent` and terminate retry loops (`pack_writer_v3` via
`retry.Unrecoverable`; the external-refresh manager guard extended so
behavior does not invert). On the C++ side `LoonErrCodeToErrorCode` is
the single classification entry (low band -> hand table, extend band ->
producer's `ToSegcoreErrorCode`, unknown -> producer's retryable probe),
unifying the two previously-divergent `ThrowIfFFIError` helpers —
`LOON_FILE_NOT_FOUND(12)` now converges to `ObjectNotExist(2017)` on
both integration paths. Remaining LOON items (e.g. promoting
FileNotFound into `ExtendStatusCode`) live in the milvus-storage repo.
- **Regression guards.** `scripts/check_segcore_error_boundaries.sh`
wired into `make static-check`: every `throw` in `internal/core/src`
must carry a milvus ErrorCode (zero-tolerance; currently 0 violations);
vendored `fmindex::` is confined to its boundary files;
knowhere/arrow/milvus_storage/tantivy are ratcheted by a checked-in
file-set baseline (new consumer files fail the check; shrinking is
free).
- **Runtime observability for what is left.**
`milvus_cgo_unexpected_segcore_origin_total{origin="<file>:<line>"}`
counts every 2001 crossing the cgo boundary by its C++ source location
(parsed from the ` at file:line` suffix `AssertInfo` already emits,
build paths collapsed to repo-relative). A site that fires in production
names itself — reclassification becomes evidence-driven instead of
re-reading ~1,400 asserts.

Site count for the 2001 family: 1,955 on master -> 1,525 on this branch;
the delta is reclassification into actionable codes, not deletion of
checks.

## Deferred

- milvus-storage-side LOON improvements: promote `LOON_FILE_NOT_FOUND`
into `ExtendStatusCode`, category byte (design §4.7) — tracked in the
storage repo.
- knowhere-side: thin-delegate `KnowhereStatusToErrorCode` to knowhere's
own `ToSegcoreErrorCode`, gated on a knowhere version bump.

# check_segcore_error_boundaries.sh
#
# Static guard for the segcore error-classification contract. Two rules, each
# enforcing one half of the same invariant: an error that reaches the cgo
# boundary must carry a milvus ErrorCode, because FailureCStatus() reports any
# exception that is not a SegcoreError as UnexpectedError(2001) — the bucket
# that means "unclassified internal bug", indistinguishable from a real one.
#
# RULE 1 (typed throw) Every throw in internal/core/src must throw a
# milvus exception (or a folly control-flow type,
# or be a bare rethrow).
#
# RULE 2 (library confinement)
# Vendored libraries under internal/core/thirdparty
# are free to throw plain std:: exceptions — they
# have no dependency on milvus-common and are synced
# from a pinned upstream revision (see their NOTICE).
# The obligation to classify therefore sits at the
# consumption point, so each such library's symbols
# are confined to declared boundary files that own
# the try/catch.
#
# Rule 2 exists because rule-1-style counting cannot catch the real defect: a
# consumption point can hold a classifying catch on one code path and none on
# another (e.g. FM index had one on build, none on load, so a truncated blob
# surfaced as 2001 instead of DataFormatBroken). Confining the library to a
# small set of files turns a per-branch obligation into a per-file one, which
# is reviewable.

# Usage: scripts/check_segcore_error_boundaries.sh
