feat(refit): add tracing to the control-plane service - #629
Conversation
RefitService and its Redis backend emitted no tracing at all, while every sibling service (ModelService, ApiService, P2pService, the registry backends) logs. An RL refit control plane had no server-side trace of any request, so a worker registration, a version creation or a lease acquisition left no record. - state-changing RPCs log at info: worker registration, version create/delete, shard register/delete, lease register/release - read RPCs log at debug: get_weight_version, list_weight_version_shards - backend_status logs on the way out, so no backend failure can exit unlogged. Severity is assigned once at that choke point: internal and unavailable at error, resource exhaustion at warn, and the four caller-fault variants at debug so a misbehaving client cannot flood the server log Signed-off-by: Nicolas 'Pixel' Noble <nicolas@nobis-crew.org>
WalkthroughThe refit service adds tracing logs for backend error conversion and service operations. Logs cover worker, weight-version, shard, and lease mutations, plus retrieval and listing operations. Public method signatures and service behavior remain unchanged. ChangesRefit service tracing
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds tracing for refit requests and backend failures, but backend or request-derived text may enter logs without sanitization and periodic lease renewals may create avoidable info-level volume. This is a bounded observability and logging-cost risk that is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up. Poem

Avoid emitting untrusted values directly into logs.
backend_status logs backend-provided error text, while the new RPC events interpolate request-derived identifiers and names. Use structured tracing fields and sanitize or verify escaping for backend/request text and control characters before logging. Preserve the existing Status mappings and client messages.

RefitService and its Redis backend emitted no tracing at all, while every sibling service logs. An RL refit control plane had no server-side trace of any request, so a worker registration, a version creation or a lease acquisition left no record.
State-changing RPCs now log at info: worker registration, version create and delete, shard register and delete, lease register and release. Read RPCs log at debug. backend_status logs on the way out, so no backend failure can exit unlogged, and severity is assigned once at that point: internal and unavailable at error, resource exhaustion at warn, and the four caller-fault variants at debug so a misbehaving client cannot flood the server log.
