From 1c9c219a74e060271bb62402c8c05528c3a4055a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuneng Jiang Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 23:44:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix(proxy): self-heal Prisma read paths + harden reconnect state machine MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Two related fixes layered on top of the existing reconnect plumbing: 1. Restore reconnect-and-retry on `PrismaClient.get_generic_data` (issue #25143). 1.83.x lost the transport-reconnect-and-retry-once branch that 1.82.6 had on this method, so transient `httpx.ReadError` flaps now surface immediately as `db_exceptions` alerts. `_update_config_from_db` fans out four concurrent `get_generic_data` reads, so a single transport blip used to mark four alerts and a stale config window. Adds `call_with_db_reconnect_retry` to `litellm/proxy/db/exception_handler.py` — a single canonical "try DB read, on transport error reconnect once and retry once" wrapper. Mirrors the inline pattern in `auth_checks._fetch_key_object_from_db_with_reconnect` so we have one implementation rather than three drifting copies, and gives future read paths a clean opt-in. 2. Fix the `_engine_confirmed_dead` flag-reset bug in `_run_reconnect_cycle`. The flag was cleared before `_do_heavy_reconnect()` ran, so any failure inside the heavy reconnect (timeout, missing DATABASE_URL, recreate failure) left the flag False — and the next attempt could silently demote to the lightweight path even though the engine was genuinely dead. Move the reset into the success branch so the flag stays True across heavy-reconnect failures and the next attempt re-enters the heavy branch. Tests: - `tests/test_litellm/proxy/db/test_exception_handler_reconnect_retry.py` (new) — 9 tests covering the helper's contract: happy path, retry on transport error, no retry on data-layer errors, propagation when reconnect fails, propagation after second transport error, `hasattr` guard for partial mocks, fresh-coroutine-per-call invariant, explicit timeout override, default timeouts read off the prisma_client. - `tests/test_litellm/proxy/db/test_prisma_self_heal.py` — adds: - `test_get_generic_data_retries_on_transport_error_for_config_table` - `test_get_generic_data_propagates_when_reconnect_fails` - `test_engine_confirmed_dead_persists_across_failed_heavy_reconnect` (regression test for the flag-reset bug). All 16 self-heal tests + 9 helper tests + 535 auth/exception-handler tests pass locally. --- litellm/proxy/db/exception_handler.py | 123 +++++++++- litellm/proxy/utils.py | 42 +++- .../test_exception_handler_reconnect_retry.py | 225 ++++++++++++++++++ .../proxy/db/test_prisma_self_heal.py | 123 ++++++++++ 4 files changed, 501 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/test_litellm/proxy/db/test_exception_handler_reconnect_retry.py diff --git a/litellm/proxy/db/exception_handler.py b/litellm/proxy/db/exception_handler.py index cfa90a48ee..f096773200 100644 --- a/litellm/proxy/db/exception_handler.py +++ b/litellm/proxy/db/exception_handler.py @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ -from typing import Union +from typing import Any, Awaitable, Callable, Optional, Union +from litellm._logging import verbose_proxy_logger from litellm.proxy._types import ( DB_CONNECTION_ERROR_TYPES, ProxyErrorTypes, @@ -123,3 +124,123 @@ class PrismaDBExceptionHandler: ): return None raise e + + +# Default fallback timeouts when neither the caller nor the prisma_client +# expose `_db_auth_reconnect_timeout_seconds` / `_db_auth_reconnect_lock_timeout_seconds`. +# Match the auth path's existing defaults so behavior is uniform across read paths. +_DEFAULT_RECONNECT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS = 2.0 +_DEFAULT_RECONNECT_LOCK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS = 0.1 + + +def _coerce_timeout(value: Any, fallback: float) -> float: + """Return `value` if it is a real int/float, else `fallback`.
