Implement BEP-81 invocation ABI, lifecycle, and callback ownership by hellovai · Pull Request #5063 · BoundaryML/baml

hellovai · 2026-10-01T10:36:04Z

Cancelling a BAML call no longer discards the resources or execution environment of a host callback that is still running. Callback cleanup can finish safely after the caller has received cancellation, and callback → BAML re-entry observes inherited cancellation, the remaining deadline, and trace ancestry.

This PR establishes the BEP-81 runtime and bridge contract for those guarantees and migrates native/Wasm consumers to the new invocation transport.

Cancellation, deadlines, and re-entry

Consider a BAML call that invokes a Python task or Node Promise, then is cancelled while that callback is awaiting cleanup:

BAML call → host callback starts
          → caller receives cancellation
          → callback continues cleanup in its execution environment
          → callback physically exits and releases execution resources

Caller settlement and physical host execution exit have separate owners. A late callback result releases transferred values and retires execution without reviving the cancelled caller. Callback state, arguments, and callable references remain available until execution actually exits.

A relative timeout becomes one absolute deadline against the owning runtime's monotonic clock. Preparation, VM waits, callbacks, and nested calls consume that same budget. A child cannot restart the parent's timeout by entering BAML again. Cancellation observes every inherited source, composite token, and deadline; cancelling a child does not cancel its upstream input sources.

Inherited execution state carries the context needed for re-entry, including trace ancestry and the originating host environment. Retained callback context remains useful after ordinary parent completion, and inherited cancellation remains live rather than becoming a frozen boolean.

Admission and bridge compatibility

Calls allocate against the installed runtime before submission. Their runtime and cancellation state stay pinned through preparation and completion. Allocated calls can be cancelled before submission; unknown or retired IDs do not create pending cancellation state. Encoding failures release unsubmitted allocations.

The bridge accepts one canonical CallFunctionArgs.invocation control record. It validates trace selections, primitive context patches, inherited-state and reservation capabilities, generated cancellation tokens, absolute deadlines, and host environments before execution. Preparation pins callable handles and validates supplied arguments without evaluating omitted defaults or running application code. Invalid inputs take precedence over pending cancellation.

V2 host dispatch transports application arguments together with effective inherited state, projected cancellation, the absolute deadline, and the originating host context. Cancellation notifications target actual host executions.

The native function table requires ABI revision 3 and the complete invocation operations: runtime-bound call allocation, monotonic clock access, allocation release, V2 dispatch, and callback cancellation registration. Wasm exposes equivalent operations. Adapters do not downgrade application callbacks to V1 dispatch. SDKs and native libraries must be upgraded together; legacy or malformed invocation envelopes fail before execution.

Python, Node, Web/Workers, Rust, both Go bridges, C#, Java, Swift, and C++ are migrated. Ruby's bootstrap adapter and loader fixtures validate the expanded table. Protobuf consumers and checked-in bindings are regenerated together. The internal protobuf schema has no version negotiation; native ABI and SDK/toolchain identity checks remain the compatibility boundary.

Handle ownership

Python and TypeScript take ownership of callback wire references before decoding. Failed validation releases unconsumed references once per occurrence, including repeated keys, while successfully escaped wrappers retain their own references. Shared native decoding also releases transferred input owners on preparation failures and malformed trailing protobuf fields.

Coverage and validation

Raw ABI tests cover allocation/release, pre-submission cancellation, malformed and legacy requests, runtime affinity, typed capabilities, reservation reuse, expired deadlines, inherited cancellation, and late completion. Native cancellation tests exercise actual callback exit separately from waiter settlement.

Recorded validation includes 12 engine invocation tests, 20 engine cancellation integration tests, 173 bridge/Rust library checks, 133 Node bridge tests, and 110 generated Node tests with 12 skips. Browser and Worker bridge suites each passed 24 tests. Generated Python and Rust function-call gates, both Go bridge suites, Go race/no-cgo checks, Java JNI/JUnit round trips, Ruby loader checks, 11 Swift tests, targeted C# checks, and C++ smoke checks passed. Native and Wasm Clippy and formatting checks passed.

The broader local Python bridge run retained six typemap/generic expectation failures. The full C# managed runner stopped at an existing generated-contract version expectation. Passing targeted checks do not imply that those full suites passed.

Sources: raw invocation ABI tests, native cancellation/lifetime tests, Go retained-context regressions, canonical invocation schema.

Current-head validation is tracked by BAML Language CI for 1b15c62 (status when this description was updated: in progress). The local results above were recorded during implementation and are not a new full-suite run after synchronization.

Scope

The public generated invocation-options facade and host instrumentation are separate PRs. Atomic reservation claiming at admission is implemented in #5090. This PR's audit specs describe the intended broader contract; they are not executable conformance results. General callback decoding cleanup for Rust, Go, C#, Java, Swift, and C++ remains follow-up work and is not covered by Python/TypeScript's decoding ownership guarantee.

Summary by CodeRabbit

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change adds invocation controls for cancellation, deadlines, inherited state, and tracing. It introduces runtime-bound call allocation and ABI revision 3. Host dispatch uses a V2 invocation envelope, with waiter completion tracked separately from callback execution across SDK bridges.

Changes

Invocation engine

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Invocation context and execution lifecycle `baml_language/crates/bex_engine/src/`, `baml_language/crates/bex_project/src/`	The engine adds context binding, inherited cancellation and tracing state, deadlines, and a prepare/admit/execute lifecycle. The project interface exposes invocation-clock, context-binding, and prepared-call release methods.
Cancellation sources and VM tracing `baml_language/crates/bex_vm`, `baml_language/crates/bex_vm_types/`	Cancellation sources can wrap tokens or observers. VM entry points can consume trace configuration and invocation ancestry. Reservation validation and projected cancellation-token helpers are added.

CFFI protocol

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Invocation schema and ABI revision `baml_language/crates/bridge_ctypes/types/`, `baml_language/crates/bridge_cffi/include/`, `baml_language/crates/bridge_cffi/src/api.rs`	The wire schema adds invocation options, trace metadata, internal handle types, and the `HostInvocation` envelope. The C ABI advances to revision 3 with invocation-clock, allocation-release, V2 dispatch, and cancellation entries.
Allocation, validation, and request execution `baml_language/crates/bridge_cffi/src/`, `baml_language/crates/bridge_ctypes/src/`	Call IDs bind to their allocating runtime. Request decoding validates invocation controls before execution. Handle ownership is tracked across decoding and failure paths.

Host dispatch and SDK adapters

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Host execution ownership `baml_language/crates/sys_native/`, `baml_language/crates/sys_wasm/`, `baml_language/crates/bridge_ctypes/src/invocation.rs`	Waiter cancellation retires result delivery while active host execution remains tracked until exit. Invocation frames and owned values are retained and released through completion or drop.
Language SDK integration `baml_language/sdks/`, `baml_language/sdk_tests/`, `typescript2/pkg-proto/*`	SDK bridges encode invocation metadata, register V2 dispatch and cancellation callbacks, and propagate invocation frames. Tests and specifications cover invocation controls, callback lifetime, cancellation, and handle cleanup.

Suggested reviewers: codeshaunted

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 1b15c

This change reworks call lifecycle, cancellation and host callback dispatch across every SDK bridge. Several earlier concerns remain open: callbacks could hang, leak handles, or fail after the call-ID counter is exhausted. Resolve or explicitly accept these before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 1b15c

The reviewed paths preserve runtime ownership and inherited invocation controls. However, this is a broad lifecycle and compatibility change, and cleanup after cancellation or interruption was not verified across every language adapter. No concrete security regression was established.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

inferred — The demonstrated exposure concerns execution, cancellation, and callback-owned state inside a hosting process. Native allocation tables retain runtime owners and SDK callable registries participate in dispatch. Deployment-level tenant, service, and environment exposure is not established by these source paths.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

observed — The supplied cancellation-authority candidate was rejected by its verifier, and the canonical Security section contains no retained findings. Inspection of the candidate's projection site supports an invocation-local authority plus inherited-state observer, not a demonstrated authorization bypass. This does not resolve the supplied incomplete-verification proof gap or establish safety across all adapters.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

observed — SDK-provided invocation controls cross a native validation boundary before execution. Decoding rejects wrong capability types and foreign-runtime owners, while engine cancellation preparation validates inherited runtime identity and preserves inherited sources and deadlines. Callback re-entry uses an invocation-aware spawner instead of an unqualified engine reference.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

observed — Native dispatch prevents queued execution from starting after its waiter disappears and retains execution resources until explicit execution exit. Late completion cannot recreate an absent waiter. Python and Node dispatch acquire execution leases before queue handoff, but their complete task and Promise termination paths remain outside the verified coverage.

Hardening Proposals

proposed — Track and bound live host execution independently of cancelled waiters, while preserving ancestry until actual exit. This would help contain resource pressure from long-running host code without weakening the new ownership guarantees; it is a hardening proposal, not an observed vulnerability.

BAML waiter cancellation must not erase the ancestry or resources of a Python task or Node Promise that is still running. Callback → BAML re-entry must inherit cancellation inputs and the remaining deadline. This layer adds the BEP-81 runtime foundations for those behaviors and fixes native handle leaks when callback argument decoding fails. Stacked above #5061. This PR includes the BEP-81 implementation, callback lifetime regressions, Python/TypeScript decoding ownership fixes, and the invocation/tracing audit specs. - Runtime binding freezes a relative timeout into one absolute deadline before preparation. Argument binding, VM permit waits, callback re-entry, and descendants consume that budget; children can shorten it. - Preparation validates and pins inputs before admission. Invalid inputs take precedence over pending cancellation, defaults remain deferred until execution, and abandoned preparation releases its retained state. - Each invocation owns local cancellation while observing inherited inputs and generated CancelToken handles, including composites. Cancelling a child or one invocation does not cancel a shared input token, its sources, or siblings. Cross-runtime controls fail before admission. - BAML waiter settlement and actual host execution exit have separate owners. Cancelling a waiter can return while callback cleanup is still awaiting; native ancestry and Python/Node execution resources survive until the task or Promise actually exits. Late results do not revive the waiter. - Python and TypeScript own all ordinary wire references before decoding callback arguments. If validation fails midway through arguments or nested values, unconsumed references are released once per occurrence, even when keys repeat. Wrappers retained by application code keep their ownership, and borrowed host-registry keys are excluded. Native CFFI, Python, Node, Java, and Wasm entry adapters use the common decoded invocation request and execution path. Generated Node artifacts are updated alongside their source. The standalone files under `sdk_tests/specs/` are forward-looking invocation and host-tracing audit examples, not a runnable test suite. Generated `_baml`/`$baml` options and host instrumentation remain later implementation work. The separate cancellation bookkeeping issue and equivalent callback decoding cleanup in Rust, Go, C#, Java, Swift, and C++ remain follow-ups. This PR does not claim those bridges now have Python/TypeScript's decoding ownership guarantee.
