Nothing changes for users. The simulation's [threads] check stops reporting runs where einfold handed a fold to DataFusion's own plan because memory ran short.

A clean 30-minute soak of main after #113 (run 41005507728, filed as #123) ran about 500,000 cases and reported 5 [threads] failures, each a difference in a sum's last bit. All five had a small memory pool. In each, the first run of einfold computed every fold itself. The second run, on another number of partitions, ran short of memory, and EinFoldExec, einfold's execution operator, handed its fold to the host's plan (host_plans=1 in its metrics), as it is designed to. DataFusion's float sums depend on the partitions, so the bits differ, but neither run's difference is einfold's.

Decisions to review

• [threads] now compares only where the second run also has no host plan, or the values are exact (run_case). Exact values' sums are the same in any order, so they keep the check wherever the sums were done. The alternative was to run the second session without a memory pool. That would also stop checking that einfold's own kernels give the same bits under memory pressure when they don't run short.
• A question for the maintainer, not decided here. The design says einfold is "deterministic where einfold runs", and these runs weren't einfold's. Still, with the memory fallback, a query's bits now depend on how much memory was free when it ran, which can vary between two runs on the same thread count. Is that the intended reading of the principle, or should the fallback be reported, say in EXPLAIN ANALYZE or a log line, so users know a run's bits weren't einfold's?

Invariants the tests check

All five seeds from the run pass. Locally, they failed on main and passed with the change, and in each the second run's plan showed host_plans=1. 5,000 fresh cases starting at the failing seeds' regions pass.

Walkthrough

The [threads] simulation property now compares results across thread settings when the alternate run succeeds and either uses no host folds or produces exact values. Its description states this comparison rule.

Changes: Simulation comparison

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Host-routed result guard crates/einfold-datafusion/tests/simulation.rs	The property description limits comparisons based on where sums are computed and whether values are exact. The thread check now retains the run result and compares successful runs when no host folds ran or when values are exact.

Priority: Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Possibly related issues

• Issue 112 — The issue reports simulation-soak property failures that include host-plan fallback cases. This change adjusts the comparison for those cases.
• Issue 123 — The issue reports five simulation-soak failures. This change adjusts the comparison that rejected cases where the second run used a host-plan fallback.

Possibly related PRs

• xqlsystems/einfold#65 — Introduced the simulation and its thread-determinism property, which this change refines.
• xqlsystems/einfold#89 — Added host-plan fallback behavior that the thread check now detects.
• xqlsystems/einfold#48 — Introduced host-plan fallbacks and simulation coverage that the updated comparison uses.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description explains the user impact, the failure cause, the review decisions, and the test results. It is mostly complete, although it omits the Closes # issue reference and uses Invariants the tests check instead of the template heading How it is tested; these omissions do not prevent review.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 1 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

`Values::Exact` results from host-routed runs are compared against `got` or the
