CompressionCommitFence.set_total_ceiling_seconds documents its deadline as
"shared by the host and worker", but only the host ever read it. The worker's
streamed summary bounds itself with _aux_stream_total_ceiling() instead —
max(600, 4 * aux_timeout) — which is >= the host's total ceiling for every
configured timeout AND starts counting later (after pool admission,
_serialize_for_summary, prompt build and TTFT). A stream that outlives its
abandoned host is therefore not an edge case; it is the guaranteed outcome of
every total-ceiling timeout.
8207862212 closed the first half: a cancelled fence now releases the
compression owner, freeing its pool slot and session lease. Its own comment
leaves the second half open — the isolated provider daemon that holds the
socket keeps streaming "until the auxiliary stream's longer absolute ceiling
expires". With the #99692 reporter's auxiliary.compression.timeout: 600 that
is 2400s of an orphaned ~500K-token summary the fence is already guaranteed to
refuse, and because the session never shrank, every following turn stacks a
fresh orphan on top of the last.
Publish the fence's deadline as an absolute monotonic instant
(CompressionCommitFence.deadline_monotonic) and give the auxiliary layer the
return leg it was missing: aux_stream_deadline() installs it thread-locally,
_ChatStreamAccumulator.feed() stops the stream once it passes, and
_run_protected_sync_provider_call propagates it onto the provider daemon
(thread-locals do not cross that boundary, so an owner-thread-only install
would be inert on exactly the path large-session compression takes).
Absolute, not relative: the deadline is unaffected by however long dispatch and
TTFT took before the accumulator was constructed. Checked as well as — not
instead of — the existing ceiling, so every caller without a host deadline is
byte-for-byte unchanged, and the "timed out" phrasing keeps _is_timeout_error
classification identical to a request timeout.
