In `@agent/cmd/cuinterpose/frontend/frontend.c`:
- Around line 295-296: Update retain_cuda_library and its callers to distinguish
non-CUDA addresses from CUDA addresses that failed retention, so the failed
latch only causes NULL for CUDA symbol lookups. Apply this tri-state handling in
the dlsym path near the shown return, resolve, and finish_query, while
preserving normal results for unrelated symbols.
- Around line 255-262: The MEMORY_API WRAPPER path currently fails closed when
backend() latches backend_unavailable, returning CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED for
all exported memory entry points. Make this policy explicit by documenting the
fail-closed behavior and ensuring libcuinterpose_core.so and the frontend are
deployed atomically; otherwise, implement a validated CUDA passthrough for these
wrappers while preserving the existing signature checks.
- Around line 190-192: Update the initialization flow around the initializing
atomic CAS so losing threads wait for the initializer to publish backend_api
instead of returning NULL, while allowing same-thread loader reentry to return
immediately. Track the initializing thread for this distinction, and make
pthread_atfork child handling reset or abort inherited initialization state when
backend_api is still unpublished so the child cannot wait forever; invoke
backend callbacks from atfork handlers only after backend_api is published.
In `@agent/Dockerfile`:
- Around line 114-115: Add a step to the tracked CI workflow that invokes the
cuinterpose test target from agent/cmd/cuinterpose, ensuring the
cuinterpose-test stage’s native frontend and Rust checks run in CI.

In `@agent/cmd/cuinterpose/frontend/frontend.c`:
- Around line 189-191: Update backend() to check backend_api before
backend_unavailable, so a published backend remains usable even when the
unavailable latch is set. In the load-failure path, re-read backend_api before
setting backend_unavailable and set the latch only when no backend was
published.
In `@agent/cmd/cuinterpose/frontend/tests/fixtures/runtime.c`:
- Line 4: Add `#define` _GNU_SOURCE before the existing cuda.h include in the
runtime fixture so RTLD_DEFAULT is exposed when runtime.c is compiled by gcc.
Keep the include and surrounding fixture code unchanged.

Summary
Refs #295 (approved).
Add the glibc-based C preload frontend, NVIDIA-typed private ABI, and explicit ELF export list. Intercept direct calls and CUDA symbol-query paths, including synchronous malloc and memory-IPC entry points.
Review boundary
The frontend only resolves and forwards calls. It does not implement allocation tracking or IPC. The matching Rust implementations arrive in the later backend slices. Keep the current cbindgen/cudarc type definitions and loader design.
This PR contains one signed-off commit,
31bb83acfb8ae99ce701e5430d57ae3829963234. Diff: 12 files changed, 763 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-).Why the frontend has atomics
The frontend can be called by several application threads, including while a shared-library constructor holds glibc's loader lock. This is separate from CUDA allocation locking in the Rust backend. A global frontend mutex held while calling
dlopen,dlsym, or backend initialization could deadlock when those operations run constructors that call the shim again.backend_apiinitializingCUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED. The frontend does not retry automatically.failedbackend_unavailablecuda_librariesThe small
pthread_onceprotects only discovery of glibc's realdlsym. Backend initialization has the separate non-waiting guard above because it loads another library and can start backend threads. These atomics do not serialize CUDA operations; the backend's state and descriptor-cache locks do that.Why the private ABI includes fork callbacks
fork_prepare,fork_parent, andfork_childare private callback-table entries, not exported CUDA APIs. The C frontend registerspthread_atforkonce in its constructor and forwards to the already-loaded backend when one exists. The callbacks do not load the backend during fork.The reason is the backend's threading model, implemented in later PRs:
Only the calling thread survives
fork. The child nevertheless inherits the parent's memory, mutex state, and file descriptors; its copied records can refer to CUDA objects and service threads that it must not reuse.Before fork, the backend callbacks lock the shim metadata and collect its owned descriptors. The parent callback releases those locks. The child callback closes inherited shim descriptors and discards the inherited CUDA records. On its next CUDA activity, the child creates a new participant ID, socket, and service threads. The frontend also supplies its original PID so a child that first loads the backend can be recognized.
This supports the documented quiescent-fork case, not arbitrary fork during CUDA calls, loader initialization, or active shim protocol traffic. Prefer spawn/exec. The frontend declarations belong in this PR; backend behavior and tests are in the later process/core and test slices.
Library lookup and lifetime
There are two uses of CUDA library names:
libcuda.so.1andlibcudart.so.13are fallback names when a function is not found throughRTLD_NEXTor an already-retained handle.cuda_library_familychecks the library containing a successful lookup before our genericdlsymhook replaces it. This avoids replacing an unrelated plugin's identically named function. A failed real lookup stays failed; we do not invent an API the selected library lacks.The second check currently accepts the
libcuda.so/libcudart.sobasename families with numeric version suffixes and excludes other loader namespaces. This is an interception-scope policy, not proof of library authenticity or a security boundary. A differently named CUDA library may be left uninterposed. The exact filename policy is not required by ELF itself; it can be changed separately if we choose a different supported lookup contract.The returned function pointer and its library lifetime are a separate concern.
RTLD_NOLOADobtains an additional reference to the already-loaded provider, which we keep for the process lifetime. An applicationdlclosemust not unload code referenced by a cached driver function. The Rust backend is likewise retained after initialization starts, because callback pointers and its threads may outlive the initialization call, including failed startup.Errors and locking
Resultfor ordinary failures and catches Rust panics at its C boundary. CUDA failures keep their error codes; unexpected panics mark the backend failed. This does not catch foreign C++ exceptions or aborts.CUDA_ERROR_UNKNOWN. Callers retain the driver error information.Stack and compatibility
The stack starts directly on
main; it does not depend on the PageBroker GPU-transfer branch or #323. The shim only saves shared creator bytes through host carriers. Never-shared allocations remain native CUDA state. The stack removes launch-job/jobfile support, and older jobfile-dependent or draft shim artifacts are rejected rather than migrated.PageBroker and native CustomStorage changes are separate. No PR in this stack adds that implementation.
Validation
Validation of the assembled implementation:
make checkin a clean disposable worktree.GLM testing without CustomStorage was cancelled at the user's request and is not a pass. GLM qualification uses a separate composition with CustomStorage; previous experimental GLM results are not qualification of this rebuilt stack. The installed test driver is not claimed to be a stock-driver qualification.
Tests above were run on the assembled implementation, not claimed independently for every source-only intermediate PR. The final documentation amendment does not change tested executable code.
