family_list maps a family to the toolchains that build it, and seven hw/bsp
families are in neither: cxd56, efm32, espressif, f1c100s, pic32mz, py32f0,
same7x. Scoping to one of them intersected to nothing, so every toolchain key was
[], every cmake leg skipped on `if: inputs.build-args != '[]'`, code-metrics took
its no-metrics branch, and the PR went green from a build job that ran no
compiler. The only signal was a stderr line nothing greps for.
Not a coverage regression - master gave the same diff no compile coverage either,
since none of the other families compiles same7x's board.h. What is new is that
the gap used to be masked by the full matrix and is now the whole answer, and
that green now means "ran no compiler" rather than "compiled 64 families".
A selection whose families ALL miss is now unusable rather than empty: it prints
UNSCOPED, which build.yml and .circleci/config.yml already grep to drop the build
extras with it, and emits the full matrix. The two neighbouring cases keep their
own answers - an explicit families: [] is still a legitimate nothing-selected, and
a partial miss still scopes to the families that do build, noting the rest.
The contract test pinned an exact count of fall-open markers, which this would
have broken; it now pins the invariant (every message that emits the full matrix
carries the marker) and was checked to still fail when a marker is removed.
Also corrects the drift guard's note about espressif: hil-build-esp builds its
boards by name, but that job is gated on repository_owner, so on a fork an
espressif-only PR builds nowhere.

The roster had two ways to pass a cmake -D to a board's build: `build.args`,
applied to every variant, and `variant[].defines`, applied to one. They did the
same thing, and only metro_m4_express used the first - for MAX3421_HOST=1, which
is what makes it the one rig board that compiles hcd_max3421.c.
A board whose define is always on now carries a single variant named after itself,
which is exactly the shape `board.get('variant') or [{'name': name, 'flags': ''}]`
already synthesises everywhere - so the build dir, the HIL report row and the
variant-boundary handling are unchanged. raspberry_pi_pico has used that shape
for its flags all along.
Removes the BuildCfg type and the parallel code path from all four consumers:
hil_test.build_board, hil_pool_check's two builders, hil_ci_set_matrix and
ci_select.board_options.
Verified: the hil-build matrix entry is byte-identical
(`-b metro_m4_express -DMAX3421_HOST=1`), hil_test's build command is unchanged,
ci_select still selects the board for a max3421 diff with MAX3421_HOST in its
options, and a real build of dual/host_info_to_device_cdc and host/cdc_msc_hid on
that board still compiles hcd_max3421.c.

Every PR built all 74 legs (2494 example builds on GHA cmake alone) and flashed
all 30 rig boards, whatever it touched. One classifier now walks the PR diff twice
and answers three questions: which families to build, which examples per family,
and which boards run which tests. Fail-open throughout - anything no rule
classifies, any exception, any unusable output falls back to the full matrix, and
a master push always builds everything.
test/hil/helper/hil_select.py moves to tools/ci_select.py: it is no longer HIL-only,
and tools/ is where the build side can import it. test_hil_select.py follows it as
test_ci_select.py.
Rules (docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-19-ci-build-family-filter-design.md holds the
full table): a port selects the families whose family.cmake references it, and its
role - a dcd change skips host examples and vice versa; a class selects only the
examples whose tusb_config.h enables its CFG_TU[DH]_ macro, following cross-class
includes; an example selects itself; hw/bsp selects its family or board; hw/mcu and
lib select whoever references them. CMake is the reference for all of it - make
follows whatever cmake decides, family.mk is never scanned.
Empty means empty (maintainer ruling): a rule that classifies a path to nothing
selects nothing. Ports no family references, classes no config enables, libs no
example builds and hw/mcu paths that resolve nowhere are all real - nothing
compiles them, so nothing can validate them, and the master-push build is the net.
Structural tests pin each such case with an explicit allowlist, so the day one
stops being empty it fails pre-commit instead of silently narrowing CI.
Per-example builds: build.py grows a repeatable -e, resolved against the targets
CMake actually registered and batched into one `cmake --build --target a b c`.
build_utils mirrors CMake's family_filter (the whole FAMILY_MCUS list, ${...} and
string(TOUPPER ...) resolved) for the cmake side, while the make side keeps
master's algorithm verbatim - the two build systems answer differently and a shared
answer breaks lpc54's make link. hil-build gains this even on a full selection:
1702 example builds become 515.
Transport: the selection travels as a file, never an argv or env var - a mass-sweep
diff selects 261 KB against a 128 KiB exec limit, and E2BIG would fail the step
before its own fallback could run. CircleCI carries the example map inside the
generated config (pipeline parameters cap at 512 chars), swapped into the parameter
defaults by sentinel match, and drops the scoping wholesale if that rewrite fails.
Every PR-derived value written to $GITHUB_ENV/$GITHUB_OUTPUT is character-screened.
Code metrics follow the scoping: metrics.py emits per-example totals, and
metrics_pair_compare compares the (board, example) pairs present on both sides
instead of a scoped run against a full-matrix average.
The selector's own suite gates it in both providers: a selector that exits 0 with
valid-but-wrong JSON is the one failure fail-open cannot catch, so a red suite
means the full matrix.

A wedged USB device used to take the whole HIL run with it. Every worker that
touched the poisoned node blocked uninterruptibly, the pool could not be joined,
map_async discarded every board's result, and the job ran to the GitHub ceiling
with no report at all -- while the self-hosted runner's single job slot stayed
occupied and every queued job waited behind it.
Bound the calls a worker makes itself. read_sysfs, bounded_open and run_cmd all
answer within a wall clock; read_sysfs distinguishes "absent" from "unknown",
because a blocked read is not evidence of absence, and caps stranded readers at
four (each costs a thread and an fd for the life of the process) after which the
worker declares itself blind. mtype, the gio unmount, the libmtp session and the
arecord/iperf reaps go through those bounds; the MTP session runs in a disposable
subprocess, since libmtp's ctypes calls block unkillably in D state.
Bound the run. A pool guard (HIL_POOL_TIMEOUT, 60 min) fires before any job
ceiling and still writes a report. When the pool will not shut down, the sweep
kills what the workers spawned -- descendants, not just direct children, since
flashers run in their own session -- confirms each kill actually landed, and
exits early so the runner is freed. Whatever survived is named in the report.
Deliberately shallow past that point. We do not re-scan process groups, prove
pid ownership, or escalate through sudo: a root-owned survivor is reported, not
force-killed, because signalling a pid we cannot prove is ours is the worse
failure, and the job ceiling backstops whatever this misses. A D-state holder
was never killable anyway.
Recover instead of reporting a wedge. A HUNG usbtest case reflashes its own DUT
through its roster flasher, but only where the flasher can reach its probe past
a poisoned node -- openocd pinned to a validated vid_pid, or esptool. Where it
cannot, the run says so rather than reserving budget for a path that cannot fire.
Raise the CI ceilings above the pool guard so the guard fires first and still
writes its report, and pin --retry 1 on every HIL leg: the guard is a flat
constant and does not scale with max_retry, so argparse's default of 3 would
triple the serialized usbtest tail against an unchanged guard.
Split the module: execution in hil_test/hil_flash/usbtest, infrastructure in
helper/ (locking, health, selection, shared bounded IO), and the two matrix
generators into .github/scripts/ -- ci_set_matrix.py sat in workflows/, where
GitHub treats every file as a workflow definition. 193 tests cover the bounded
paths, the kill ladder, the guard and the selector against synthetic /proc trees
and PATH-injected fakes; a real wedge cannot be manufactured on demand.
