… (LAB-3769) The two _l2_double_check hit returns in the async miss path (reached after a distributed-lock wait when another worker filled the cache first) recorded no set_operation_context, record_success, record_cache_operation, or _stats.record_l2_hit — thundering-herd traffic on Redis/CachekitIO was invisible in cache_operations_total and cache_info() L2 latency, even though the lock exists precisely to absorb that traffic. Extracts _record_l2_hit_async, shared by the uncontended L2 hit site and both double-check hit sites, and times each double-check read on its own perf_counter window so duration_ms reflects the L2 read itself rather than time spent waiting on the lock.
WalkthroughThe change centralises async L2-hit telemetry. Primary hits and lock double-check hits now record consistent metrics, payload sizes, and latency statistics. A unit test verifies telemetry during lock contention. ChangesAsync L2 telemetry

|
|
||
| The uncontended async L2 hit site records get/serializer="rust"/hit=True telemetry | ||
| (LAB-3765); the two post-lock ``_l2_double_check`` hit returns did not — so a | ||
| thundering-herd hit, filled by another worker while this one waited on the | ||
| distributed lock, was invisible to ``cache_operations_total`` and ``cache_info()`` | ||
| L2 stats. That is exactly the traffic the lock exists to absorb. | ||
|
|
||
| Reproduces contention by patching the backend's ``get`` to miss once (forcing the | ||
| wrapper past the pre-lock check into the lock path) then hit on the next call — | ||
| the double-check read inside the held lock, standing in for "another request | ||
| filled the cache while we waited". | ||

Add coverage for the lock-timeout double-check hit. test_async_l2_double_check_hit_records_get yields True from acquire_lock(), so it covers only the acquired-lock branch. test_lock_timeout_cache_populated_during_wait reaches the False branch and the second L2 read, but asserts only the returned value and call_count. No existing test checks that this branch calls _record_l2_hit_async with the correct labels, envelope size, and read duration. A regression can return the correct value while omitting or misreporting the timeout hit in cache_operations_total and cache_info().

Summary
This PR fixes a telemetry gap where async L2 cache hits arriving through the distributed lock's double-check path were not recorded, making thundering-herd hits invisible to
cache_operations_totalandcache_info()L2 statistics (LAB-3769).Problem
The uncontended async L2 hit path correctly recorded
get/serializer="rust"/hit=Truetelemetry (from LAB-3765), but the two post-lock_l2_double_checkhit returns did not. This meant that when another worker filled the cache while this request waited on the distributed lock — precisely the traffic the lock exists to absorb — the resulting hit was never counted in operation totals or L2 stats.Changes
Extracted a shared
_record_l2_hit_asynchelper inwrapper.pythat consolidates the L2 hit telemetry logic (operation context, success recording,record_cache_operation, andrecord_l2_hit). It returns the UTF-8-encoded envelope so callers can pass it directly to_l1_backfill_from_l2without re-encoding.Refactored the uncontended L2 hit site to use the new helper, replacing the inline telemetry recording.
Added telemetry recording to both double-check hit paths inside the lock. Each now measures the double-check read duration and calls
_record_l2_hit_asyncbefore backfilling L1 and returning, ensuring contended hits report the same labels as uncontended ones.Testing
tests/unit/test_async_l2_double_check_hit_labels.py, which reproduces contention by patching the backend'sgetto miss once (forcing the wrapper into the lock path) then hit on the double-check read. It verifies exactly onegetoperation is recorded withserializer="rust",hit=True, and the correct byte size.
