The column was `integer DEFAULT 0` (nullable) since the initial schema.
Counters should not be nullable — the semantics are a count, not an
optional measurement. `consecutive_auth_failures` (added later) was
correctly declared NOT NULL; tightening `consecutive_failures` to match
removes the drift and eliminates the "|null" burden everywhere the value
is read.
SQLite does not support in-place ALTER … SET NOT NULL, so drizzle-kit
cannot auto-generate this. The manual migration uses the standard
SQLite recreate pattern (new table + INSERT SELECT + DROP + RENAME +
recreate index) under `PRAGMA defer_foreign_keys = ON` so the existing
federation_outbox → federation_peers FK survives the swap. The COPY
step coalesces any hypothetical NULL to 0 defensively; live probes on
both test instances (nova, orbit) showed zero NULL rows so no
actual backfill is required.
Verified by applying the full migration chain against a copy of the VM's
live DB: column ends as `notnull=1 dflt=0`, the peer row is preserved,
the unique index on origin is recreated, NULL inserts are rejected, and
`PRAGMA foreign_key_check` reports no violations.
Server `SanitizedPeer.consecutiveFailures` tightened to `number` to
match the new drizzle inference and the shared `FederationPeer` shape.
Follow-up #22 from S2S DM unification backlog.
Tracks HMAC-failure count separately from consecutive_failures (network
errors). Auth failures and network failures have different resolution
paths; mixing them would let a single successful retry after a network
blip mask real secret desync.
Part of backlog #19 — outbox auth-failure recovery.
Note: drizzle-kit generated the 0003 SQL with an unexpected CREATE TABLE
for peer_approval_requests because the 0002 migration was authored
manually without a corresponding 0002_snapshot.json (see 14041e9). The
generated SQL has been trimmed to the single intended ALTER TABLE. The
regenerated 0003_snapshot.json correctly reflects the full current
schema, so future migrations will diff cleanly.
Adds `auto_accept_peering` integer column (default 1/true) to the
`instance_settings` singleton table, controlling whether this instance
auto-accepts incoming peering requests. Includes generated migration
`0001_clear_earthquake.sql` applied automatically on server boot.
