Validate configurable tracking timeouts with shared defaults - #291
Preserve the shared 30-second default for Snowflake, MLflow and custom trackers while allowing an explicit per-tracker finish budget.
Use one validator for constructor and execution paths. Accept real numbers, including NumPy integer/float values; reject booleans, invalid/nonfinite/nonpositive inputs and values above threading.TIMEOUT_MAX before provider loading or tracker preparation.
Capture the validated fit budget before starting background tracking. Invalid settings follow the existing tracking error policy rather than overflowing a thread wait after training finishes.
Document custom trackers and actual limits. Run-start lookup keeps its separate 30-second budget; model logging/registration limits are unchanged.
Protect an in-flight Snowflake run from rejected adapter reuse after timeout. Failed starts release their own state, and each completion keeps its original run reference; direct start/finish hooks run on their owning thread. Timed-out custom model logging also defers cleanup to that worker, even with a full event queue. Ordinary finalization cannot be dropped by a full queue either: admitted events drain before exactly-once cleanup while the caller keeps its bounded wait. Unexpected worker exits clean their owned run without replacing the original failure, including a pending-cleanup exception. Synchronize terminal cleanup with timeout handoff and wake model requests when a worker stops; keep existing RuntimeError diagnostics and causes.
Tracking contract, Snowflake adapter and the complete existing MLflow model suite: 171 passed, 8 optional Snowflake SDK skips.
Focused flake8, import sorting and diff checks passed.
Independent review found no remaining issue in the requested changes.
Removed the unnecessary private worker-state assertions and contrived mutation regression.
Remaining qualification
Native Snowflake workflow 42946983584 passed fit, score, evaluate and negative phases. The aggregate remains blocked/incomplete for full qualification: exported epoch history is not implemented and UI review is excluded from this engine run. The default remains 30 seconds for every provider.
Checklist
Preserve shared timeout defaults and custom-tracker metadata behavior.
Update tracking options and Limits documentation.
Add boundary, numeric-type and error-policy regressions.
Requirement: configurable tracking finalization must preserve the existing 30-second default for every provider and reject unsupported budgets before starting tracking work. Oversized finite budgets previously reached Thread.join and could raise after a fit completed.

Timeout validation and TrackingSession lifecycle
Enforce real-number timeout bounds before preparation; freeze opt-in provider references before finish; defer Snowflake abandonment to the owning worker; preserve finalization outside the bounded event queue and release ownership on unexpected worker exits without hiding the primary error; synchronize model admission and terminal cleanup.
Preserve shared defaults and custom metadata timing while preventing reference handoff races.
Cover rejected reuse during start/finish/cleanup, failed-start retries, reference handoff, shared validation, bounded full-queue finalization with explicit admission proof, unexpected worker exits, atomic terminal handoff, prompt stopped-worker model errors and model-timeout cleanup with busy/idle workers and a full queue.
Prove the original SDK run completes and resources release correctly after failures.
Verification: Full matching-environment tracking suite passed 171 tests with eight optional Snowflake SDK skips; both native-fixture cases and all 36 existing MLflow model tests passed. Twelve targeted compatibility cases passed independently, preserving existing RuntimeError messages and causes. Independent review cleared the lifecycle and model-timeout and ordinary full-queue finalization cases and the final source. Flake8, import sorting and diff checks passed. Native Snowflake lifecycle 42946983584 passed all four engine phases; the aggregate remains blocked/incomplete for full qualification because exported epoch history is not implemented and this engine run excluded UI.
Stopping condition: all adapters retain the same default; valid budgets complete or time out through the existing error policy; unsupported budgets fail before preparation/provider work without overflowing thread waits.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
SnowflakeTracking adds a configurable finish timeout with a 30-second default. Tracking validates timeout values and uses the resolved timeout for fit finalization and prediction tracking waits. Run-start waits retain a separate 30-second budget. SnowflakeTracking records the thread that starts a run and uses a per-instance lock to manage setup, finalization, and cleanup. Tests cover timeout behavior and tracker lifecycle cases.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 39bd2
An unexpected tracking worker exit can leave later tracking calls queuing or blocking on a dead worker. A hung-work timing test may also be flaky on slow CI. Both are bounded and should be addressed before or soon after merge.
Security architecture risk: Low · up to 39bd2
Timeout validation and run-ownership controls are strengthened without an identified expansion of provider permissions. A narrow cleanup race involving custom model logging and simultaneous worker failure can nevertheless leave tracking unavailable within the process.
Retained concerns
Medium · reliability · inferred: Deferred cleanup can miss a terminating owner worker. With custom Snowflake model logging queued behind an interrupted callback, the worker can drain an empty pending-abandonment queue and begin its BaseException handler. If the model-timeout caller then removes the session tracker and queues abandonment before that handler takes the tracker, the handler sees None and exits without draining the newly queued cleanup. The Snowflake owner and lifecycle lock can remain attached to the dead thread, preventing adapter reuse and potentially blocking subsequent tracking through the process-wide provider instance. The new handoff lacks synchronization with terminal worker cleanup.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The identified failure-containment concern affects tracking state within the application process. A stranded adapter lock prevents its reuse, and an active process-wide provider run can cause other adapter starts to be rejected. This is an availability and ownership issue, not an established privilege-escalation or cross-tenant attack path.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — Caller-provided timeout values are validated before fit tracker preparation and before prediction or monitoring worker startup. The timeout controls waiting rather than credential selection or provider permissions, and timeout completion does not cancel background provider work.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — Unexpected worker failures attempt owner-thread abandonment and signal startup completion. Pending cleanup failures do not replace a primary worker exception, and session failure reporting preserves its first recorded error.

Full details: Change Map Design Review
Explanation
The prior cleanup concern remains in a worker-exit race. After _work_jobs drains _pending_abandon (_tracking.py:859–864), log_model can clear _tracker and enqueue its cleanup (:725–739) while the worker is still alive but exiting. The worker’s exception handler then sees no tracker (:831–839), so nobody closes the Snowflake run or releases its lock. The new regression at test_snowflake_tracking.py:880–932 queues cleanup before the worker exits; it does not cover this ordering. The marked change-map comment and linked problem were not supplied, and live lookup is unavailable, so the remaining design review is incomplete.

Synchronize timeout cleanup ownership with worker exit so the owning worker closes the run exactly once, including this race. Add a regression that controls this interleaving and verifies adapter reuse. Supply the marked change-map comment and linked problem for the remaining design review.

Large timeout values can raise inside worker.join.
worker.join(timeout) is outside the try block. Python's threading.Thread.join raises OverflowError when the timeout exceeds the platform limit (threading.TIMEOUT_MAX). A finite, positive value such as 1e20 passes _finish_seconds and then fails at join. The worker thread has already started by then. The exception propagates out of log_run, which is documented to return failures rather than raise them.
TrackingSession.finish has a similar exposure through self._jobs.put(..., timeout=...) and worker.join(...). There, queue.put with a huge timeout also raises OverflowError.
Clamp the value to threading.TIMEOUT_MAX in _finish_seconds, or reject values above it.
Proposed fix
- if (isinstance(seconds, bool) or not isinstance(seconds, (int, float))- or not math.isfinite(seconds) or seconds <= 0):- raise ValueError('finish_timeout_seconds must be finite and positive')- return seconds+ if (isinstance(seconds, bool) or not isinstance(seconds, (int, float))+ or not math.isfinite(seconds) or seconds <= 0):+ raise ValueError('finish_timeout_seconds must be finite and positive')+ return min(float(seconds), threading.TIMEOUT_MAX)
Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Validate the type of finish_timeout_seconds in the constructor.
_finish_seconds in _tracking.py rejects non-numeric values. This constructor does not. A string such as 'slow' reaches math.isfinite, which raises TypeError, not the documented ValueError. None has the same result.
Add the same isinstance check as _finish_seconds. Better, share one validator between the two sites to prevent drift.
Proposed fix
- if (isinstance(finish_timeout_seconds, bool)- or not math.isfinite(finish_timeout_seconds)+ if (isinstance(finish_timeout_seconds, bool)+ or not isinstance(finish_timeout_seconds, (int, float))+ or not math.isfinite(finish_timeout_seconds)

Design looks right and the tests pass (92 passed, 8 skipped locally). A few things to fix before merge:
Very large values crash a finished fit. The checks in _tracking.py (_finish_seconds) and SnowflakeTracking.__init__ only require finite and > 0. Anything above threading.TIMEOUT_MAX (~9.2e9 s) makes Thread.join raise OverflowError, even when the worker already finished. log_run calls join outside its try, so predict/monitor raise even with on_error='warn'; in fit, session.finish runs after training and registration, so the result is lost. inf is rejected, so 1e10 is the natural way someone asks for "no timeout". Please cap at threading.TIMEOUT_MAX.
Two validators that disagree. The Snowflake constructor uses math.isfinite without a type check, the session requires int/float. SnowflakeTracking(finish_timeout_seconds=np.int64(120)) constructs fine, then every tracking call fails with "must be finite and positive" and tracking is disabled. None or '300' raise a bare TypeError instead of ValueError. One shared helper used by both fixes this.
docs/mlops.md Limits still says fit waits at most 30 s for tracking. Also, the attribute works on any TrackingBase, but it's only documented under Snowflake.
Please state the behaviour change in the body. The default Snowflake wait goes from 30 s to 300 s, so a hung Snowflake now blocks the end of fit/predict/monitor for up to 5 minutes. What was the observed finish time that made 30 s too short?
Smaller:
pointer() still waits FINISH_SECONDS for the run to start, so a slow Snowflake start doesn't benefit. Intended?
Several tests assert on private state (_tracker, _worker, _finish_seconds), and test_fit_captures_budget_before_custom_tracker_mutates_it covers a contrived case.

The hung-work test can fail on slow CI.
The test asserts time.monotonic() - began < 1.5 with a 0.05-second budget. For kind == 'fit', session.start runs before finish. The start call includes prepare and the worker thread startup. These costs are not bounded by the budget. A loaded CI runner can exceed 1.5 seconds before finish returns.
Start the timer immediately before session.finish or before log_run so that it measures only the bounded wait.
Proposed change
- began = time.monotonic()
try:
if kind == 'fit':
session = TrackingSession(recorder)
session.start(lambda: fit_spec(CONTEXT))
+ began = time.monotonic()
session.finish(None, None)
error = session.error
else:

error = tracking.log_run(

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Validate a custom value once, and give a clear error for it.
_finish_seconds reads tracker.finish_timeout_seconds through _Foreign.__getattribute__. For a foreign tracker, a non-callable value is returned unchanged. A foreign tracker that defines the attribute as a property that raises will propagate that exception. In TrackingSession.start and log_run, the call sits inside a try that catches Exception, so the failure path is safe.
The ValueError message does not name the offending value or the source (tracker class). Include repr(seconds) and the tracker platform so users with custom trackers can find the bad setting.
Proposed change
-def _validate_finish_timeout(seconds: Any) -> float:- message = ('finish_timeout_seconds must be finite and positive, and no '- 'greater than threading.TIMEOUT_MAX')+def _validate_finish_timeout(seconds: Any) -> float:+ message = ('finish_timeout_seconds must be finite and positive, and no '+ f'greater than threading.TIMEOUT_MAX; got {seconds!r}')
The tests match on 'finite and positive', so they still pass after this change.
Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
The test patches threading.Thread.join globally.
monkeypatch.setattr(threading.Thread, 'join', ...) and is_alive replace the methods for every thread in the process during the test. A background kumo-tracking thread from an earlier test that calls join would receive the patched method, and a lambda with a required timeout argument raises TypeError for a call without it. Patching also stops real waiting on the worker started by log_run, which can leave a live thread.
Use a Thread subclass patched only on the tracking module, or wrap tracking.threading.Thread with a fake class that records the join argument.

Documentation is inconsistent with the PR objective.
The PR objective says Snowflake tracking is allowed up to 300 seconds. The constructor default and the documented default are both 30 seconds, and the AI summary states the same. Line 204 says "Longer waits are opt-in", which is consistent with the code.
Confirm the intended default. If 300 seconds is the intended default, change FINISH_SECONDS usage in SnowflakeTracking.__init__, the docstring, and this signature. If 30 seconds is intended, update the PR description.

pointer() still waits FINISH_SECONDS for the run to start, so a slow Snowflake start doesn't benefit. Intended?
Yes, intended. finish_timeout_seconds controls tracking finalization. pointer() keeps the separate shared 30-second wait for run startup. Also reverted back the 300 second timeout change for snowflake.

Assert that the queue is full in the full_queue case.
This case exists to cover the queue.Full branch around self._jobs.put_nowait(lambda: None) in TrackingSession.log_model. The test never checks that the two session.on_event(EVENTS[0]) calls fill the size-2 queue.
A queue-filling event can produce fewer than two queued jobs. For example, an epoch_ended event returns early in _once_a_line, and _submit is skipped when self._search.single is true. The queue is then not full, so the no-op job is queued and the worker drains the abandonment normally.
Every later assertion also passes in that case, so the test would still pass without covering the branch. Assert session._jobs.full() before caller.join(3). The caller waits about 1s before its first deadline check, so the assertion has time to run.
Proposed change
if state == 'full_queue':
session.on_event(EVENTS[0])
session.on_event(EVENTS[0])
+ assert session._jobs.full()

Stop job admission when the worker exits with an unexpected exception.
After _work_jobs raises, _work clears self._tracker and sets _started. It does not change _closing or _behind. _submit checks only those two flags, so on_event keeps queueing closures on a queue that no thread drains.
Two consequences follow:
The queued jobs are retained until the session ends.
If the queue reaches QUEUE_SIZE, log_model calls self._jobs.put(log, timeout=MODEL_SECONDS). That call can block for up to 3600 s on a dead worker, before the worker.is_alive() check runs.
Close admission in the failure path. This is a small change.
Proposed change
except BaseException as error:
self._fail(error)
+ with self._admission:+ self._behind = True
tracker, self._tracker = self._tracker, None
log_model still needs a guard for a full queue with a dead worker. One option is to use put_nowait there when worker.is_alive() is false.
