Model downloads hang forever: timeout=None, no resume (tsk-ilhlue) - #2800
Merged
Conversation
The HTTP path that pulls multi-gigabyte model weights over a home internet connection ran with `httpx.AsyncClient(timeout=None)`, which disables the connect, read, write and pool timeouts together. A half-open TCP connection — a Wi-Fi drop, a NAT table eviction, a CDN edge that stops sending — left `aiter_bytes()` awaiting forever: the task stayed at `status="downloading"`, `list_active()` kept returning it, and nothing ever errored. The user watched a progress bar frozen part-way with no way to tell that apart from a slow link. - Finite timeouts (connect/read/write/pool). The read timeout bounds the gap BETWEEN chunks, not the total transfer, so a slow but alive multi-gigabyte pull is unaffected while a stall now errors. - Retry with exponential backoff via the existing `clients.retry.with_retry`, so a single transient reset or 502 from a mirror no longer kills the whole transfer. 4xx still surfaces immediately. - Resume: whatever an interrupted attempt wrote is asked for with a `Range` header instead of thrown away, so a 40 GB model that dies at 39 GB does not restart from zero. A server that ignores the header and answers 200 restarts cleanly rather than appending a second copy; a 416 against a stale stage file drops it and refetches instead of wedging the model behind a hard 4xx. - Staging: bytes land in `<dest>.part` and are renamed onto the canonical path only after validation, so a failure can never leave a corrupt weight where a later "is this model installed?" existence check would take it for the real thing. The stage file survives a transport failure on purpose — it is what the next attempt resumes from — and is dropped when the bytes are wrong. - `_tasks`/`_running` are pruned of finished tasks past a one-hour retention window, so every download ever started no longer stays resident for the lifetime of the process. Pending and downloading tasks are never pruned. Adding a read timeout surfaces previously invisible stalls as errors; that is the intent, but early reports will read as "downloads got worse".

…load _download's exception handler unconditionally unlinked task.dest on any failure, including a failure raised before with_retry ever finished -- _stream_to_part writes exclusively to the .part stage file, so a re-download of an already-installed model that fails outright (never promotes anything) was destroying the previously valid file for no reason. Track whether this attempt actually promoted a file to task.dest and only clean it up then. Also drops a now-dead part.unlink() in the validation-failure branch: by that point part.replace(task.dest) has already renamed the stage file away, so part no longer exists there (the comment claiming otherwise was wrong), and switches logger.error to lazy %s formatting instead of an eager f-string. Adds a 5xx-retry regression test alongside the existing 404-is-not-retried one; with_retry's status branch already handles it correctly, nothing exercised that path.

CARD TITLE (intent, not commit subject): [lib-audit] Model downloads hang forever: timeout=None, no resume
Autonomous build of board card tsk-ilhlue.
What changed
tinyagentos/download_manager.py— the HTTP path that pulls multi-gigabytemodel weights over a home internet connection.
(a) Silent infinite hang.
httpx.AsyncClient(timeout=None, ...)disabled theconnect, read, write and pool timeouts together, so a half-open TCP
connection (Wi-Fi drop, NAT table eviction, a CDN edge that stops sending) left
resp.aiter_bytes()awaiting forever: the task stayed atstatus="downloading",list_active()kept returning it, and nothing ever errored. Nowhttpx.Timeout(connect=10.0, read=60.0, write=60.0, pool=10.0). The read timeoutbounds the gap between chunks, not the total transfer, so a slow-but-alive
multi-gigabyte pull is unaffected.
(b) No resume. Bytes now stage into
<dest>.partand a fresh attempt asksfor
Range: bytes=<n>-, so a 40 GB model that dies at 39 GB continues instead ofrestarting from zero. The resumed prefix is re-hashed into the streaming SHA-256
in a worker thread, so
_validate_download's existing digest check still coversthe whole file. Two ways a server can refuse resume are handled explicitly: a
mirror that answers
200to a Range request is sending the whole file again, sothe stage file is truncated rather than having a second copy appended; a
416against a stale/over-long
.partdrops it and refetches from zero instead ofescaping as a hard 4xx that would wedge that model permanently.
(c) Corrupt file at the canonical path. The
exceptarm setstatus="error"but left the partial file at
task.dest, where every later "is this modelinstalled?" existence check reads it as a real weight.
.partstaging makes thatstructurally impossible — the rename onto
desthappens only after a completebody is on disk — and the failure arms unlink
destunconditionally. The stagefile is deliberately kept on a transport failure (it is what the next attempt,
this process or the next boot, resumes from) and dropped when validation says the
bytes are wrong, so a corrupt prefix cannot poison every future attempt.
(d) No retry. The transfer is wrapped in the repo's existing
clients.retry.with_retry: 4 attempts, exponential backoff, retryinghttpx.TransportError(timeouts, resets, protocol errors) and 5xx responses. A404 still surfaces on the first attempt — retrying a wrong URL only delays the
error the user needs.
(e)
_tasksnever pruned._prune_tasks()drops finished (complete/error)tasks past a one-hour retention window from both
_tasksand_runningwhen anew download or installer task starts. Pending/downloading tasks are never
pruned however long they have been running, and the window is long enough that
the models UI's post-completion polling still sees its task.
Deviation from the card:
tenacitywas not addedThe card proposes
tenacityfor the retry. This repo already shipstinyagentos/clients/retry.py::with_retry— exponential backoff with jitter,retrying connection errors and 5xx but never 4xx — used by every inference client
and adapter (
qmd_client.py,adapters/*_adapter.py,scheduler/failure_handler.py). Adding a third-party dependency to the 4 GB corealongside a house helper that already does the job, with the same retry-vs-4xx
policy this path needs, is strictly worse.
with_retryis used instead and nonew dependency is introduced. The retry knobs are module constants
(
DOWNLOAD_MAX_ATTEMPTS,DOWNLOAD_RETRY_BASE_DELAY,DOWNLOAD_RETRY_MAX_DELAY)so the download budget is tuned independently of the chat-call default.
RED FIRST (pasted)
At the base ref (
cd60b714d), the new tests against the unfixeddownload_manager.py:The three that pass at the base ref are regression guards for the fix, not for
the defect: a server that ignores
Range, a.partalready holding every byte(416), and "a 404 is not retried". Today's code passes them by having no resume
and no retry at all; they exist so the new machinery cannot break them.
The stall is driven by a fake
httpx.AsyncClientthat honours the documentedtransport contract —
timeout=Nonemeans the stream waits forever on a peerthat stops sending, a finite
readraiseshttpx.ReadTimeout, and aRange: bytes=N-request is answered 206 with the remaining bytes — so thefailure modes a home connection actually produces are exercised without opening
a socket.
GREEN
Also run — every module that touches the download manager or the retry helper it
now depends on:
