docs: EngineMetrics.Throughput always reads 0; the parser is not SIMD (celeris#653, celeris#424) - #73
Conversation
… (celeris#653, celeris#424) - engines.md, observability.md: the Throughput row said "recent requests-per-second rate". No engine has ever set the field, so it always reads 0. It is deprecated in celeris v1.6.0 (goceleris/celeris#695) and removed in v2.0.0 (#651). - engines.md, performance.md: the examples that printed m.Throughput as "rps" now derive the rate from two RequestCount samples. - index.astro: the "SIMD parser" card advertised SSE2/NEON parsing with a SWAR fallback. The only SIMD routine had no caller since celeris 96581bc and is deleted by goceleris/celeris#697. The card now describes the zero-copy parse and keeps the smuggling / rapid-reset hardening, which exists (protocol/h1 framing checks; protocol/h2/stream CVE-2023-44487 mitigation).

… and parser claims (celeris#679, celeris#424) - engines.md, CELERIS_MAX_IOURING_TIER: at `none` Adaptive neither starts on io_uring nor switches to it (goceleris/celeris#694, celeris#679), as the celeris README row now says. - engines.md, CELERIS_IOURING_SEND_ZC: an unrecognized value is logged only where the startup probe finds SEND_ZC working; elsewhere the variable has no effect (engine/iouring/engine.go reads it only inside `if profile.SendZC`, and resolveSendZCPolicy ignores it when the functional probe failed). - index.astro, the parser card: claim what the HTTP/1.1 parser does (its slices alias the bytes it parses), not that every request is parsed in place in the read buffer. epoll and io_uring serve a request that spans reads, has a chunked body, or runs on an async handler from a per-connection buffer.

… run vs the drain (celeris#673)
celeris#692 (celeris#673) makes a cancelled StartWithContext /
StartWithListenerAndContext return only after the Shutdown the cancel
triggers has finished, OnShutdown hooks included. graceful-shutdown.md
said the opposite ("is not awaited by the return"). It now quotes the
new StartWithContext and OnShutdown godoc, says a hook must not wait for
StartWithContext to return, and updates the entry-point tables, the
hook rules and the pitfalls. core-concepts.md and getting-started.md say
the same.
Every other page that ordered OnShutdown hooks after the drain, or
before it, was checked on Linux with a 500 ms request in flight when
the shutdown began. On std and adaptive the hook ran after the request
finished; on epoll and io_uring it ran at once, and a direct Shutdown
returned at once. So:
- graceful-shutdown.md: the Shutdown sequence gains the listen-context
step and says which engines Shutdown waits for; the "Shutting down
programmatically" paragraph, the Shutdown table row, the shared-budget
note, the Drain hooks intro, the socket-handoff step 4 and the FAQ
follow.
- core-concepts.md, getting-started.md, testing.md: no unconditional
"drains, then fires hooks".
- deployment.md: the readiness flip in an OnShutdown hook happens
before the drain only on epoll and io_uring; on std and adaptive it
happens after in-flight requests finish, so flip it in the SIGTERM
handler to cover every engine.
- The Start() note: since v1.6.0 (celeris#595) Shutdown cancels the
listen context of every entry point, so it does stop a server started
with Start().
|
The per-engine statements this PR adds to the graceful-shutdown, core-concepts, getting-started, testing and deployment pages (OnShutdown hooks run at once on epoll/io_uring, and after in-flight requests on std/adaptive) match today's code. That behaviour is now tracked as a bug: goceleris/celeris#703. |

- Line 26: Update the graceful-shutdown documentation to remove the claim that
shutdown behaves identically across engines. State that context cancellation
starts shutdown on every engine while timing remains engine-specific, preserving
the distinction between drain and hook timing for std/adaptive versus
epoll/io_uring.
- Around line 136-137: Update the `StartWithContext` and
`StartWithListenerAndContext` rows to describe `Config.ShutdownTimeout` as a
shared drain-and-hook deadline on `std` and `adaptive`, noting that `epoll` and
`io_uring` do not wait for the drain in `Shutdown`. Revise the getting-started
comments and prose to say shutdown attempts to drain requests within the
deadline, hooks run, and requests still active when it expires may be closed;
remove promises that all requests finish.

… a SIMD parser (celeris#424) (#697) findHeaderEnd, the SSE2/NEON/generic header scan in protocol/h1, has had no production caller since 96581bc (#359), yet the README advertised a SIMD HTTP parser built on it, and #424 asked CI to exercise it. Deletes protocol/h1/findheader{,_amd64,_arm64,_generic}.go and findheader_{amd64,arm64}.s (the only assembly in the repo), plus their five tests and two benchmarks. No hot-path change: the deleted code was unreachable from any request. The README bullet becomes an accurate zero-copy HTTP/1.1 parser bullet, and protocol/h1/doc.go now says the slices alias the buffer passed to Parser.Reset (an engine read buffer or a per-connection buffer). The docs site copy is fixed in goceleris/docs#73. Verified: a call-site census at 9f4d89b finds no caller, with positive controls finding the live parseHeaders call and the call #359 removed (96581bc~1 parser.go:93); a reintroduced call fails the build with undefined: findHeaderEnd. go build and go vet pass for linux/amd64, linux/arm64, linux/386, linux/riscv64, darwin/amd64 and darwin/arm64; go test -v ./protocol/h1 gives 140 PASS, 0 FAIL, 0 SKIP; golangci-lint reports 0 issues; go mod tidy -diff is clean.

Linked repositories findings
goceleris/celeris
StartWithContextreturns only after shutdown andOnShutdownhooks; its default timeout is 30 seconds (server.go:865-975). Epoll and io_uringShutdownmethods are no-ops, leaving draining to listen-context cancellation (engine/epoll/engine.go:208-217,engine/iouring/engine.go:452-463). This directly supports the PR’s engine-specific hook-timing documentation. [::goceleris/celeris::]EngineMetrics.Throughputis documented and tested as always zero and deprecated, withRequestCountrecommended for rate calculation (engine/engine.go:189-199,engine/throughput_deprecated_test.go:16-107). [::goceleris/celeris::]- The parser package explicitly guarantees zero-copy header/body slices aliasing the parser buffer (
protocol/h1/doc.go:1-10). [::goceleris/celeris::] - The source confirms unrecognized
CELERIS_MAX_IOURING_TIERvalues map tonone(probe/probe.go:11-29) and unrecognized SEND_ZC values warn only after a functional probe (engine/iouring/probe.go:288-315). [::goceleris/celeris::]
goceleris/probatorium
- The benchmark adapter pins a celeris pseudo-version and uses
Start()plus a 10-second directShutdownon SIGTERM (servers/celeris/go.mod:5-8,servers/celeris/server.go:135-163), so the updatedStart()shutdown guidance is relevant to benchmark processes. [::goceleris/probatorium::] - The refapp publishes both cumulative
RequestCountandThroughput, but explicitly excludes the latter from parsing because all celeris engines leave it at zero; adaptive rates are reconstructed from counter deltas (validation/refapp/internal/debugvars/debugvars.go:349-353, 554-562,validation/checker/poll.go:83). [::goceleris/probatorium::]

Summary
This PR corrects claims the site makes about celeris that are not true:
EngineMetrics.Throughputis described as the recent requests-per-second rate, and two examples print it asrps. No engine has ever set the field, so it always reads 0.findHeaderEnd, has had no caller since celeris 96581bc (2026-06-17).CELERIS_MAX_IOURING_TIER=nonealso keeps Adaptive off io_uring.CELERIS_IOURING_SEND_ZCvalue is not always logged.StartWithContextdoes not wait for theOnShutdownhooks. fix(server): shut down on every context cancel, and return only after it (celeris#673) celeris#692 (celeris#673) makes a cancelledStartWithContext/StartWithListenerAndContextreturn only after theShutdownthe cancel triggers has finished, hooks included. A hook must therefore not wait for that call to return.stdandadaptive, the hook ran after the request finished.epollandio_uring, the hook ran at once, and a directShutdownreturned at once.StartWithContextreturned after both, on every engine.Changes
src/content/docs/engines.md:441andsrc/content/docs/observability.md:133: theThroughputrow now says it is always 0, deprecated in v1.6.0, removed in v2.0.0, and to derive a rate fromRequestCount.src/content/docs/engines.md:463andsrc/content/docs/performance.md:635: the examples computerpsfrom twoRequestCountsamples instead of printingm.Throughput.src/content/docs/performance.md:627: the prose no longer listsThroughputas a counter.src/pages/index.astro:75: the "SIMD parser" card becomes "Hardened zero-copy parser".internal/conn/h1.go,bodyBufand the H1 buffer;asyncInBuf).protocol/h1framing checks, and theprotocol/h2/streamCVE-2023-44487 mitigation.src/content/docs/engines.md:104,CELERIS_MAX_IOURING_TIER: atnone, Adaptive neither starts on io_uring nor switches to it. This matches the README row in fix(adaptive): treat io_uring capped to none as not viable; correct stale io_uring env docs (celeris#679) celeris#694.src/content/docs/engines.md:105,CELERIS_IOURING_SEND_ZC: an unrecognized value is logged as a warning only where the startup probe findsSEND_ZCworking. Elsewhere the variable has no effect. celeris reads it only insideif profile.SendZC(engine/iouring/engine.go), andresolveSendZCPolicyignores it when the functional probe failed.celeris#673 (commit 15a75d2). Every change below matches celeris#692's head 5a05c2e and the measurement above.
src/content/docs/graceful-shutdown.md:StartWithContextreturns only after the engine has stopped and the cancel'sShutdown, hooks included, has returned. It quotes the newStartWithContextandOnShutdowngodoc verbatim. This replaces the "is not awaited by the return" note.Shutdownwaits for.StartWithContextinside a hook".Start()note now says that since v1.6.0 (celeris#595)Shutdownstops a server started withStart().core-concepts.md,getting-started.mdandtesting.md: no unconditional "drains, then fires hooks";StartWithContextreturns after the hooks.deployment.md: a readiness flip in anOnShutdownhook happens before the drain only onepollandio_uring. To cover every engine, flip readiness in yourSIGTERMhandler.celeris#692 as merged (commit 155de88). After 5a05c2e, #692 gained a20af40: when a cancel has already started a shutdown, a direct
Shutdownno longer runs a second one. It waits for that one, hooks included, and returns its result, or its ownctx's error ifctxis done first (the newShutdowngodoc paragraph;StartWithContextandOnShutdowngodoc are unchanged at fee0d1c). That made one statement false: "Config.ShutdownTimeoutis not consulted on this path", because the joined shutdown keeps the watcher'sShutdownTimeoutdeadline and the caller'sctxonly bounds its wait.src/content/docs/graceful-shutdown.md: "Shutting down programmatically" scopes that statement to a call that is what shuts the server down, and quotes the new godoc paragraph for the joined case. The paragraph after the first example, theShutdown(ctx)row of the entry-point table and the FAQ's default-timeout answer say the same.Test Plan
