ci: fix the ARM64 release smoke gate, which could never pass - #52
Conversation
The arm64-smoke job ends the container script with `proxysql_binlog_reader -v` under `sh -e`. `-v` prints the version and returns 1, so the script aborted with a non-zero status on a perfectly good image. Because publish needs arm64-smoke, this blocked publishing entirely: it failed the v2.5.0 release after test-images had already passed on all six distros, leaving the release with package assets attached but no images. Verified the images themselves are fine -- both ubuntu24 and debian13 printed the correct architecture and `v2.5.0-0-gc4dc244`. The assertion was written against the wrong signal. Pipe the version into grep so the pipeline's status comes from grep. This also strengthens the check: passing the expected version in through the environment means the smoke test now fails on a stale binary in the image, which a bare exit-status check could never detect. Add a contract guard so this cannot regress. The existing check only asserted that the command mentions `proxysql_binlog_reader -v`, which is exactly why the broken form passed review. It now rejects a script ending in a bare `-v` and requires the version assertion to be a pipeline. Introduced by 67885ad (ARM64 images) in the same series; v2.4.0 had no arm64-smoke job, so this path has never been exercised by a successful release.

Compare the complete reported version.
grep accepts a version prefix. If EXPECTED_VERSION is 1.2.3, output containing proxysql_binlog_reader version 1.2.30 passes this check. The dots also act as regular-expression wildcards. Compare the reported version token as a literal value so a stale image cannot pass the release gate.

Unblocks the v2.5.0 release. Without this, no release can publish at all.
The bug
sh -ec 'test "$(dpkg --print-architecture)" = arm64; command -v proxysql_binlog_reader; proxysql_binlog_reader -v'-vprints the version and returns 1:sh -eaborts on the first non-zero status, so the script fails on a perfectlygood image.
publishneedsarm64-smoke, so the gate blocks publishing.This is what failed the v2.5.0 release: 17 jobs passed (including
test-imageson all six distros), both
arm64-smokejobs failed,publishwas skipped, andthe release was left with 8 package assets attached and no images.
The images are fine — both ubuntu24 and debian13 printed the correct
architecture and
proxysql_binlog_reader version v2.5.0-0-gc4dc244. Theassertion was written against the wrong signal.
Introduced by
67885ad(ARM64 images, PR #47). v2.4.0 had noarm64-smokejob at all, so this path has never been exercised by a successful release —
the gate meant to verify ARM64 publishing is the thing preventing it.
The fix
Pipe the version through
grep, so the pipeline's status comes fromgreprather than from
-v. The expected version is passed in through theenvironment, which also strengthens the check: the smoke test now fails on a
stale binary in the image, which a bare exit-status check could never detect.
Regression guard
The existing contract test only asserted that the command mentions
proxysql_binlog_reader -v— which is precisely why the broken form passedreview. It now rejects a script ending in a bare
-vand requires the versionassertion to be a pipeline, so this cannot silently come back.
Verification
release.ymlparses as valid YAML.assert_release_arm64_smoke_contractinPython against the edited workflow: all pass, including the required
proxysql_binlog_reader -vsubstring.proxysql_binlog_reader -v | grep -q "…"exits 0 on a version match and1 on a mismatch, despite
-vitself returning 1.ci-test.ymlrunsruby test/verify-release-workflow.rb, so CI re-checksthe contract itself.
Note on ordering
This must land before the release is re-cut, because the release workflow is
read from the tag's ref — re-running the failed jobs would reuse the broken
file and fail identically.
