| """Parallel, memoized prompt-envelope preflight for the safety gate. |
| |
| ``_validate_prompt_envelope`` (in :mod:`backend`) is the safety gate that runs |
| *before* a trainer can touch a GPU: it decodes every row's images through the |
| real processor and rejects any row whose prompt/SFT envelope exceeds the frozen |
| token budget. On the EVI-core-v2 matrix that is ~46k rows decoded serially per |
| launch — several minutes of GPU-idle time that the lazy image loader does not |
| reach (it is a separate code path from dataset materialization). |
| |
| This module keeps the gate *bit-identical* while removing the stall two ways: |
| |
| 1. **Parallelize.** The per-row check is independent, so a **thread** pool |
| validates the rows concurrently. The per-row work (image decode, rust |
| tokenization, torch image preprocessing) releases the GIL, so threads give |
| real parallelism; and threads share the process, so they cannot deadlock on |
| the torch/tokenizer locks the model-loaded parent already holds. (A fork |
| process pool deadlocked here in practice — fork is unsafe once the VLM |
| processor/model is loaded, even with CUDA still on CPU.) |
| 2. **Memoize.** The verdict is keyed by the frozen dataset identity, arm, |
| processor revision, limits, and row count. The release builder establishes |
| that identity once; repeat launches do not serialize and hash all 46K |
| prepared rows merely to decide whether a cached verdict can be reused. |
| |
| Correctness guarantees: |
| |
| * The check body is the exact logic of the original serial loop; the lowest- |
| index failure is raised with the identical ``row {index} ...`` message. |
| * On *any* pool infrastructure failure the gate falls back to the original |
| serial scan, so the gate can never be weakened by a threading fault. |
| * The cache key binds the frozen data identity/path, arm, row count, pinned |
| model revision, token limits, SFT flag, and a schema version. A logic change |
| bumps the schema version. This intentionally trusts the already-built |
| release instead of replaying content authentication during training. |
