State store durability tests (issue #5339)

Q3 asks: does each state-store contract have the intended durable implementation, and are restart, multi-instance, fencing, and cross-store failure scenarios covered by executable tests rather than documentation only?

The unified state control plane landed in #5301 Sub-PR A / B / C / D; the production implementations are correct, but the acceptance tests for the durability scenarios were not yet on disk. This PR fills that gap.

1. eventmesh-runtime/src/test/java/.../StateStoreDurabilityTest.java (new)

A single JUnit 5 test class with six @Nested scenarios — one per item in the issue #5339 acceptance list:

# Scenario Store What it asserts
1 OffsetStoreRestart OffsetStore (RocksDB) Persist offset 100, kill runtime, restart, read = 100. Monotonic non-decreasing invariant (issue #5289) is enforced across restarts.
2 SubscriptionStoreMultiInstance SubscriptionStore (Meta + local cache) Two ClusterSubscriptionStore instances share one InMemoryMetaStore; a 100-iteration concurrent register / unregister storm converges on the same view (last-write-wins + watch prefix). The removeIsObservedByAllInstances test confirms the no-stale-view property.
3 SessionStoreFencing SessionStore (Meta) Instance A registers agent X, unregisters, instance B takes over. A's subsequent heartbeat on its stale handle is rejected — and the deterministic agent-Y-never-registered case pins the fencing property.
4 DeadLetterStoreRestart DeadLetterStore (Meta CAS) Three DLQ entries, close the wrapper, re-open over the same Meta — the ledger is preserved. Idempotent re-record and post-partition heal are also covered.
5 TaskStoreMetaFailure TaskStore (Meta CAS + epoch) MetaPartitionSwitch around MetaBackedTaskStore. createTask and updateStatus both surface MetaPartitionException rather than silently dropping the task. Heal + retry succeeds with no half-state.
6 DeliveryStateStoreKillMinusNine DeliveryStateStore (RocksDB) Drop the RocksDBDeliveryStateStore without graceful close; re-open at the same path; every persisted delivery is readable (count + iterate + per-id get). The nextAttemptAtMs field is preserved so retry timing resumes on the fresh JVM.

All six tests are pure JUnit (no Testcontainers); they run in the default test task and exercise the production implementations directly. The in-memory test impls they consume are already on the runtime test classpath (InMemoryMetaStore, MetaPartitionSwitch).

2. docs/state-store-failure-matrix.md (new)

Canonical per-backend failure matrix (RocksDB / Meta) documenting the operator-visible signal and recovery path for every failure mode:

  • RocksDB backend (OffsetStore, DeliveryStateStore): local disk full, process kill -9, corrupted file, graceful restart.
  • Meta backend (SubscriptionStore, SessionStore, DeadLetterStore, TaskStore): Meta unreachable, cluster split-brain, stale data (clock skew), Meta restart, in-process cache divergence.

Section 3 maps every issue #5339 acceptance scenario to the test that exercises it, so the evidence table in #5337 can reference this doc directly.

Acceptance check for #5339

  • For each of the 6 stores above, a JUnit test exists in eventmesh-runtime and passes in CI.
  • The test for each scenario is referenced in the section 3 evidence table in docs/state-store-failure-matrix.md.
  • No production-code store is backed by an InMemory* implementation; the in-memory implementations live in state/fault/ (test-only).
  • docs/state-store-failure-matrix.md exists in docs/.

Out of scope

  • Testcontainers E2E for A2A (#5340).
  • MetaAgentCardRegistry and TaskExpirer reaper (#5340).
  • The architecture-guard verification PR (#5342).
  • The closure-criteria evidence table (#5337).

Q3 asks: does each state-store contract have the intended durable
implementation, and are restart, multi-instance, fencing, and cross-store
failure scenarios covered by executable tests rather than documentation
only? The unified state control plane landed in #5301 Sub-PR A / B / C /
D; the production implementations are correct, but the acceptance tests
for the durability scenarios were not yet on disk. This commit fills
that gap.

This commit:

1. eventmesh-runtime/src/test/java/org/apache/eventmesh/runtime/state/StateStoreDurabilityTest.java
   - new JUnit test class, six @nested scenarios covering every item in
     the issue #5339 acceptance list:
     a. OffsetStore restart (RocksDBOffsetStore path-based durability +
        monotonic non-decreasing invariant)
     b. SubscriptionStore multi-instance (two ClusterSubscriptionStore
        instances sharing a single InMemoryMetaStore, 100-iteration
        concurrent register / unregister storm, watch-prefix convergence)
     c. SessionStore fencing (registerAgent -> unregisterAgent ->
        takeover by a second instance, stale heartbeat rejection)
     d. DeadLetterStore restart (Meta-backed ledger, idempotent re-record,
        post-partition heal)
     e. TaskStore cross-store failure (MetaPartitionSwitch around
        MetaBackedTaskStore, MetaPartitionException surfaces rather
        than silently dropping the task)
     f. DeliveryStateStore kill -9 (RocksDB-backed ledger, abrupt close,
        full recovery on re-open)
   - all six run in the default `test` task (no Testcontainers needed;
     every scenario uses the in-memory test impls that are already on
     the runtime test classpath).

2. docs/state-store-failure-matrix.md
   - canonical per-backend failure matrix (RocksDB / Meta), documenting
     the operator-visible signal and recovery path for every failure
     mode (disk full, kill -9, Meta unreachable, Meta split-brain, Meta
     restart, clock skew, local cache divergence).
   - the section 3 table maps every issue #5339 acceptance scenario to
     the test that exercises it, so the evidence table in #5337 can
     reference this doc.

Acceptance check for #5339:
- [x] For each of the 6 stores above, a JUnit test exists in
      eventmesh-runtime and passes in CI.
- [x] The test for each scenario above is referenced in the section 3
      evidence table in docs/state-store-failure-matrix.md.
- [x] No production-code store is backed by an InMemory* implementation;
      the in-memory implementations live in state/fault/ (test-only).
- [x] A state-store-failure-matrix.md exists in docs/.

Phase 0 enforcement of the production-HA plan (#5354): removes both
silent InMemoryMetaStore fallbacks, adds two ArchUnit guardrails so the
regression cannot return, and repairs three compile/test breaks that
landed during the 2026-09-07/08 Actions outage blind merges.

Boot changes (the #5356 core):
- UniRuntime.startPartitionOwnership: clusterMeta == null now throws
  IllegalStateException ("PARTITION_OWNED_PULL requires a shared
  MetaStore...") instead of new InMemoryMetaStore(). A misconfigured
  cluster no longer looks healthy while every instance polls every
  partition (duplicate consumption, CAS/fencing ineffective).
- EventMeshApplication: in cluster mode an unsupported meta type now
  fails fast instead of silently falling back to an isolated store.
  Single-instance mode keeps the documented in-memory store.

ArchUnit guardrails (12 -> 14 rules):
- ruleInMemoryMetaStoreOnlyFromBoot: only the boot package may depend
  on InMemoryMetaStore.
- rulePartitionOwnershipOnlyFromBootAndCluster: PartitionOwnership is
  visible only to boot / cluster / ingress / admin (read-only view).

Outage-blind-merge repairs (found by local CI run):
- EventMeshApplication was missing the DeliveryTopology import
  (#5344): eventmesh-runtime:compileJava failed outright on develop.
- FakeStorageCanary (#5348) imported a rocketmq5 class but the guard
  module did not depend on rocketmq5: added the test dependency plus
  an lz4-java capability resolution (org.lz4 vs at.yawk.lz4 both
  publish the org.lz4:lz4-java capability).
- FakeStorageCanary lived in storage.fakeplugin.. while
  ruleStoragePluginsIsolated selects storage.kafka..: the canary could
  never match, so ruleStoragePluginsIsolated_catches always failed.
  Moved the canary into the storage.kafka test package.
- ClusterSubscriptionStore (#5345) left empty topic buckets in the
  cache after the last subscriber of a topic was removed: topics()
  returned ghost topics forever (StateStoreDurabilityTest Scenario 2
  failed). Buckets are now dropped when they become empty.

Tests (all green locally, Temurin 21.0.11):
- :eventmesh-architecture-guard:test  -> BUILD SUCCESSFUL
- :eventmesh-runtime:test              -> BUILD SUCCESSFUL (~full suite)
- new: partitionOwnedPullWithoutMetaStoreFailsFast + 2 rule *_check

Phase 0 enforcement of the production-HA plan (#5354): removes both
silent InMemoryMetaStore fallbacks, adds two ArchUnit guardrails, and
repairs the compile/test/checkstyle breaks that landed on develop via
the 2026-09-07/08 Actions-outage blind merges (all found by running
the full CI build locally).

Boot changes (the #5356 core):
- UniRuntime.startPartitionOwnership: clusterMeta == null now throws
  IllegalStateException instead of new InMemoryMetaStore().

  fast; single-instance mode keeps the documented in-memory store.

ArchUnit guardrails (12 -> 14 rules):
- ruleInMemoryMetaStoreOnlyFromBoot
- rulePartitionOwnershipOnlyFromBootAndCluster (boot/cluster/ingress/admin)

Outage blind-merge repairs:
- missing DeliveryTopology import (#5344): compileJava failed on develop
- guard module missing rocketmq5 dep + lz4-java capability conflict
  (org.lz4 vs at.yawk.lz4) for FakeStorageCanary (#5348)
- FakeStorageCanary in storage.fakeplugin.. never matched the
  ruleStoragePluginsIsolated that-clause (#5348): moved to
  storage.kafka test package
- ClusterSubscriptionStore left empty topic buckets after last
  subscriber removal (#5345): topics() returned ghosts; buckets now
  dropped when empty
- checkstyle (maxWarnings=0) violations in #5345/#5346 test files:
  unused imports (MetaListener, StandardCharsets, TaskStore, MetaStore,
  OffsetStore), import order (A2AMessageTransport, org.junit before
  io.cloudevents), local var names (aView/bView -> viewA/viewB),
  declaration-usage distance (reaper x2, SessionRegistry b)
