ci: let a variable choose every workflow's runner - #7975
A fork or mirror of this repo can't move CI to other runners without editing workflows. The build.yml runner selector always uses ubuntu-24.04 / ubuntu-24.04-arm unless the hosted backlog escalates a run to RUNNER_AMD64/RUNNER_ARM64. Guix, clang-diff-format, prevent-master-pr and ccache pruning hardcode their labels. Four small workflows share DASH_LIGHT_RUNNER, so they can't be pointed at different runners.
What was done?
Each workflow now gets its runner label from its own variable. Unset variables fall back to today's label, so nothing changes until one is set.
build.yml: RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64 / RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64 replace the selector's GitHub-hosted defaults. In the amd64 fast and build tiers, RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64 is the first step, where untrusted runs stay, and the last step while RUNNER_AMD64 is unset. The arm64 pre-lint rung falls back to RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64. RUNNER_AMD64 / RUNNER_ARM64 stay the escalation runners, and ccache pruning uses RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64.
The backlog scan doesn't count jobs queued on a default runner set to a label that isn't one of GitHub's images, since that is our own hardware. Otherwise they would count as GitHub backlog and move runs off the default runner. Defaults set to other GitHub images, such as ubuntu-22.04, are still counted.
RUNNER_LABEL_MERGE_CONFLICTS, RUNNER_MERGE_CHECK, RUNNER_PREDICT_CONFLICTS, RUNNER_SEMANTIC_PULL_REQUEST, each falling back to DASH_LIGHT_RUNNER and then ubuntu-latest.
The runs-on input of cache-depends-sources.yml no longer has a hardcoded default, so the variable applies whenever no caller passes one.
ci/README.md lists every runner variable with its default, plus the architecture each must match.
With RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64, RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64, RUNNER_CHECK_SKIP and the per-workflow variables set, no job uses a hardcoded label.
How Has This Been Tested?
test_select_dynamic_runner.py: all 35 tests pass. The new ones check that the default variables replace the hosted labels for every output, including both amd64 tiers; that escalation still overrides them per architecture; and that jobs queued on a moved default runner (amd64 or arm64) don't count as backlog, while ones on another GitHub image do. The tier and backlog tests fail without their fixes.
I ran select_dynamic_runner.py with and without RUNNER_DEFAULT_*_VAR set. With them set, all five runner outputs follow the variables; without them, the outputs are the old labels.
zizmor with .github/zizmor.yml reports no findings. actionlint reports the same 32 findings as on develop and nothing new.
Breaking Changes
None. When no new variable is set, every job runs on the same label as before.

It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
CI workflows now support configurable runner labels and retain fallback labels when variables are empty. The dynamic runner selector accepts configurable AMD64 and ARM64 defaults and uses them in runner selection and backlog counting. The build workflow passes those defaults to the selector and uses the ARM64 default for cache pruning. Tests cover configured defaults, escalation, and backlog counting. The CI README documents runner variables and selection behavior.
Mergeable with awareness that choosing another GitHub-hosted default can undercount queued jobs and delay escalation to additional runners. Correct that classification when supporting alternative hosted defaults.

Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
The runner parameterization preserves the existing defaults and correctly separates per-architecture escalation, pre-lint, fast-path, Guix, and lightweight workflow runners. The historical CodeRabbit concerns are addressed in the current head by explicit cache-backend, architecture, and self-hosted trust-boundary documentation; no actionable findings remain. CI reports no failures, while the source-build jobs covering the changed workflows are still queued.
Triage: normal by gpt-6.1-sol (effort low) — This is a cross-workflow CI configuration and runner-selection logic change with meaningful behavioral impact, though it does not affect a critical application surface.
Rebased onto develop 6c9bfca (new head 696c380). The only conflict was predict-conflicts.yml: it keeps #7953's fork guard and timeout-minutes: 20, and runs-on uses RUNNER_PREDICT_CONFLICTS. The new third commit adds RUNNER_CHECK_MILESTONE (check-milestone.yml, which falls back to DASH_LIGHT_RUNNER as #8008 set it) and RUNNER_GUIX_ATTEST (the Guix attest job added by #7998, default ubuntu-24.04) to the variable table. Both landed after this PR was written.

Re-review — Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
Reviewed the complete diff at 985a8e5: runner defaults, escalation precedence, reusable-workflow wiring, and documented configuration constraints are consistent, with one non-blocking diagnostic nit. Verification was static only; current CI shows lint, cppcheck, runner selection, and completed builds/tests passing, while the multiprocess build and ASan/TSan tests remain pending. No blocking defects were confirmed.

💬 Nitpick: amd64-github-fallback reason can name non-GitHub default runners .github/workflows/select_dynamic_runner.py:407-417
When the backlog or the blacksmith-ci label requests escalation but RUNNER_AMD64 or RUNNER_ARM64 is unset, the selector retains the configured default runner and records amd64-github-fallback or arm64-github-fallback. With this PR, RUNNER_DEFAULT_* can name Blacksmith or self-hosted runners, so the decision reason printed in the step summary incorrectly identifies that fallback as GitHub-hosted. Runner selection itself is correct. Use provider-neutral default-fallback reasons, or distinguish the built-in GitHub defaults from custom labels, and update the corresponding assertion in test_missing_runner_vars_fall_back_per_arch.
Triage: low by gpt-6.1-sol (effort low) — The change is a small, contained CI configuration update with straightforward runner-selection fallbacks and targeted tests, without changes to critical runtime surfaces.

626b8a8 fixes the nitpick from the last review. When escalation is requested but RUNNER_AMD64/RUNNER_ARM64 is unset, the selector now records <arch>-default-fallback instead of <arch>-github-fallback, because RUNNER_DEFAULT_* may name a non-GitHub runner. Runner selection is unchanged, and test_missing_runner_vars_fall_back_per_arch asserts the new token. Nothing reads the reason except the step summary.

Exclude configured default runner labels from backlog counting.
When RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64 or RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64 names a non-GitHub runner without a self-hosted or blacksmith- label, the backlog scan counts jobs using that label as GitHub-hosted. The inflated count can set the AMD64 or ARM64 escalation flag and move jobs unnecessarily to RUNNER_AMD64 or RUNNER_ARM64.
Pass the configured default labels to non_hosted_labels. Empty values are already filtered, and the helper normalizes the labels.

Re-review — Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
Reviewed the complete diff at 626b8a8 and found no actionable defects: configurable defaults propagate through runner selection, escalation retains precedence, and workflow overrides preserve existing fallbacks. The prior fallback-reason finding is fixed; the proposed history rewrite is not required by the project's atomic-commit convention. This was a static review with no local tests run; current CI reports successful lint, ClangFormat, cppcheck, cache checks, and linux64 source build, while other source builds and tests remain pending.
Triage: low by gpt-6.1-sol (effort low) — The change is a contained CI runner configuration update with straightforward fallback logic, preserved defaults, and focused tests, without changes to critical application surfaces.

Independently reviewed the complete diff at 29bd9cc and found no actionable issues; configurable defaults propagate through the runner selector and workflows, and all four prior findings are addressed. The final tree is identical to c50bf96, with the selector fixes and regression coverage consolidated into the implementation commit. No local builds or tests were run in this static review; current CI has no failures, with lint, cppcheck and multiple builds passing, while the ASan and multiprocess builds and four test jobs remain pending.

The standing review approved this commit; this follow-up moves the verdict to COMMENT: checks that failed after the review may relate to this change, and the evidence does not rule it out.
Why it is unclear: The log identifies p2p_invalid_tx.py --v1transport as failing but omits its assertion or traceback. The PR changes runner selection, which could affect the test environment, so the summary alone cannot establish whether this is related or an unrelated flaky failure.
Nothing was re-reviewed: the findings of the standing review are unchanged. The next push gets a full review; a re-run that passes does not restore the approval.
Review provenance
Source: CI-check lane gpt-6.1-sol (agent: triage); no reviewer or verifier lanes ran for this follow-up
Verdict moved because CI failed on this commit after the review; failure logs read: 1 GitHub Actions job(s)
The linux64_nowallet-test failure on 29bd9cc is unrelated to this PR:
None of this PR's code ran in that job.build.yml runs as pull_request_target, so the run uses develop's workflow YAML and develop's select_dynamic_runner.py, not the versions in this PR. The job ran on a GitHub-hosted ubuntu-24.04 runner, the same as develop's own runs.
The PR doesn't touch the code under test. It changes only .github/workflows/*, the selector and its unit test, and ci/README.md. The same job passed on develop's push run at this PR's base 7f18ff2 (run 41727653189).
The failure is a timing race in the test. The assertion at p2p_invalid_tx.py:248 expected Erased 1 orphan tx included or conflicted by block, but the node logged Erased 2 orphan tx included or conflicted by block at 23:07:28.917. The extra orphan belonged to the peer that the previous step ("a peer disconnection causes erase its transactions from the orphan pool") disconnected. That peer's EraseForPeer only ran at 23:07:29.468, after the block had been processed. So the orphan pool still held both transactions when the block arrived.
I'll rerun the failed job once the rest of the run finishes.

Static verification of the complete PR diff at a3cd350 confirms that all four prior findings are fixed; one non-blocking documentation inconsistency remains. Runner overrides preserve the existing defaults and propagate through the selector and workflow consumers without an identified blocking defect. No tests were run locally; current CI reports no failures, with the ASan tests and multiprocess source build still running, and pull_request_target CI does not directly validate the proposed selector.

Fixed the ci/README.md tier-bullet nitpick: with RUNNER_AMD64 unset, the Blacksmith step is now documented as using RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64 (or ubuntu-24.04 when that is unset), matching blacksmith_amd64 = runner_amd64_var or default_amd64. It is folded into "ci: let a variable choose every workflow's runner", the commit that made the step fall back to the default runner. Same base (7c7e91a), and range-diff shows only that commit changed. New head fdcdcf0.
linux64_multiprocess-build / Build source on a3cd350 failed on develop's base, not because of this PR. IWYU in ci/dash/lint-tidy.sh stops on llmq/observer.cpp with "invalid application of 'sizeof' to an incomplete type 'llmq::CFinalCommitment'", which comes from ~CQuorum() = default in llmq/quorums.h. That check started covering all source files with #8010 (bitcoin#27571, "ci: Run iwyu on all src files"). Develop's own push runs at 45eebf8, 395c6fc and 7c7e91a fail with the same error; the last passing one was 9e5e3d5. This PR changes no C++, so the job will keep failing here until develop is fixed.

A fork that wants CI on other runners has to edit workflows: the
build.yml runner selector hardcodes ubuntu-24.04 and ubuntu-24.04-arm as
the runners it uses unless the backlog escalates, and guix-build,
clang-diff-format, prevent-master-pr and ccache pruning hardcode labels.
Give each workflow its own runner variable:
- build.yml: RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64 / RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64 replace the
selector's GitHub-hosted defaults. RUNNER_AMD64 / RUNNER_ARM64 keep
their meaning as the escalation runners, and ccache pruning follows
RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64. A default that is not one of GitHub's image
labels names our own hardware, so the backlog scan no longer counts
its queued jobs as GitHub-hosted; otherwise they could escalate runs
or move the amd64 fast tier off the default for no reason.
- RUNNER_GUIX_BUILD, RUNNER_CACHE_DEPENDS_SOURCES (scheduled run),
RUNNER_CLANG_DIFF_FORMAT and RUNNER_PREVENT_MASTER_PR.
- RUNNER_LABEL_MERGE_CONFLICTS, RUNNER_MERGE_CHECK,
RUNNER_PREDICT_CONFLICTS and RUNNER_SEMANTIC_PULL_REQUEST, which fall
back to the shared DASH_LIGHT_RUNNER.
Every variable defaults to the label used today, so nothing changes
until one is set. ci/README.md lists them all.

Both landed after the per-workflow runner variables were written, so they
still name their runner directly. RUNNER_CHECK_MILESTONE falls back to
DASH_LIGHT_RUNNER like the other light workflows, and RUNNER_GUIX_ATTEST
defaults to ubuntu-24.04, the runner the attest job uses today.

Rebased onto develop f279a8e, which includes #8056 ("ci: fix multiprocess IWYU failures"). That fixes the linux64_multiprocess-build failure on fdcdcf0, the CI follow-up's only open item. The failure was develop's IWYU error on llmq/observer.cpp: develop's own push runs at 45eebf8, 395c6fc and 7c7e91a failed the same way. It wasn't caused by a different runner or toolchain.
The rebase had no conflicts, and range-diff shows all four commits unchanged. Develop moved the multiprocess linters into a new lint-multiprocess job in build.yml. It takes its runner from the selector's runner-arm64 output, so RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64 and the arm64 escalation already apply to it without changes here. The selector tests pass (35), and actionlint reports nothing new compared with develop. New head a97f552.

Re-review — Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
Reviewed the complete diff at a97f552 and independently confirmed that all five prior findings are fixed, with no remaining actionable defects. Configured defaults propagate through the runner tiers and architecture fallbacks, alternate GitHub image labels remain counted in the hosted backlog, and unset variables preserve existing routing. Validation was static only: current CI has no failed checks, with lint, cppcheck and the ASan build passing while other builds, tests and ClangFormat remain pending; pull_request_target checks do not directly validate the modified selector.
Triage: normal by gpt-6.1-sol (effort low) — The change modifies runner-selection and backlog logic across CI workflows with corresponding tests, making it an ordinary tooling change rather than a trivial configuration edit or a critical-surface change.
These findings are from an automated code review. Verify the current code and confirm that no unresolved issues remain.

Issue being fixed or feature implemented
A fork or mirror of this repo can't move CI to other runners without editing workflows. The
build.ymlrunner selector always usesubuntu-24.04/ubuntu-24.04-armunless the hosted backlog escalates a run toRUNNER_AMD64/RUNNER_ARM64. Guix, clang-diff-format, prevent-master-pr and ccache pruning hardcode their labels. Four small workflows shareDASH_LIGHT_RUNNER, so they can't be pointed at different runners.What was done?
Each workflow now gets its runner label from its own variable. Unset variables fall back to today's label, so nothing changes until one is set.
build.yml:RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64/RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64replace the selector's GitHub-hosted defaults. In the amd64 fast and build tiers,RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64is the first step, where untrusted runs stay, and the last step whileRUNNER_AMD64is unset. The arm64 pre-lint rung falls back toRUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64.RUNNER_AMD64/RUNNER_ARM64stay the escalation runners, and ccache pruning usesRUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64.ubuntu-22.04, are still counted.RUNNER_GUIX_BUILD,RUNNER_CACHE_DEPENDS_SOURCES(scheduled run),RUNNER_CLANG_DIFF_FORMAT,RUNNER_PREVENT_MASTER_PR.RUNNER_LABEL_MERGE_CONFLICTS,RUNNER_MERGE_CHECK,RUNNER_PREDICT_CONFLICTS,RUNNER_SEMANTIC_PULL_REQUEST, each falling back toDASH_LIGHT_RUNNERand thenubuntu-latest.runs-oninput ofcache-depends-sources.ymlno longer has a hardcoded default, so the variable applies whenever no caller passes one.ci/README.mdlists every runner variable with its default, plus the architecture each must match.With
RUNNER_DEFAULT_AMD64,RUNNER_DEFAULT_ARM64,RUNNER_CHECK_SKIPand the per-workflow variables set, no job uses a hardcoded label.How Has This Been Tested?
test_select_dynamic_runner.py: all 35 tests pass. The new ones check that the default variables replace the hosted labels for every output, including both amd64 tiers; that escalation still overrides them per architecture; and that jobs queued on a moved default runner (amd64 or arm64) don't count as backlog, while ones on another GitHub image do. The tier and backlog tests fail without their fixes.select_dynamic_runner.pywith and withoutRUNNER_DEFAULT_*_VARset. With them set, all five runner outputs follow the variables; without them, the outputs are the old labels..github/zizmor.ymlreports no findings. actionlint reports the same 32 findings as ondevelopand nothing new.Breaking Changes
None. When no new variable is set, every job runs on the same label as before.
