Problem

Nothing proved that a catalog reader recovers through reconnect, parked-group resume, and same-epoch route replacement across relays. Writing those regressions turned up a hang: the relay's HTTP fetch subscribes to learn the newest group, drops its subscription, then fetches. If that was the last subscriber, the track parked and dropped the copy still feeding the open group, so the fetch returned the cached frames and then waited forever.

Solution

  • A fetched group now holds its logical track (kio::Consumer<TrackState>) until it is read, so the track stays in use and its copy keeps feeding the group. fetch_group takes the track state; Recover carries it.
  • A frame handed out from a fetched group drops its recovery state (and so its hold on the track) once its payload is read, the way a group already does once read to its end. Otherwise a caller keeping a read frame kept the track from parking. Regression: resume::test::a_read_frame_releases_the_track.

New regressions in rs/moq-net/tests/integration/:

  • catalog_handover.rs: disconnect, unannounce, better route, and reconnect mid-group, with a viewer staying or the track parked, followed by fresh, returning, late, and bursts of short readers (lite-07, the version with epochs). Plus a fetch right after the last subscriber leaves (lite-06 and lite-07), which hangs without the fix.
  • catalog_churn.rs: seeded churn of subscribers, fetches, writes, and route toggles over an open catalog group, 32 seeds per version (lite-06, lite-07), shrinking a failing seed to the ops it needs. 1000 lite-07 seeds ran clean with the fix.

The late-reader and churn cases also fail on release: a reader joining about a minute after a mid-group takeover, or after a park and resume, gets nothing. main's resume rewrite (#4741) already handles them; these tests guard it.

Verification

  • just check passed on the head; all 16 new integration tests and the new unit test ran.
  • The fetch regressions (fetch_right_after_leave, lite-06 and lite-07) fail without the track hold; a_read_frame_releases_the_track fails without the frame release.

API and wire impact

None. fetch_group on the resume router is crate-internal; the public track::Consumer::fetch_group is unchanged.

Follow-up

  • moq-transport (IETF) still hangs the same fetch: the copy idles on the leave and answers the fetch from the open group it no longer feeds. That's why moq-transport is left out of fetch_tests!.

(Written by Claude Opus 5.5)

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

A fetch answered from the serving copy's cache is no subscription, so the
last subscriber leaving parked the logical track and dropped the copy that
still fed the open group: the fetch read the cached frames and then waited
forever. The fetched group now holds the logical track until it is read.
Its track therefore ends with the front's verdict when its route leaves,
`Unroutable` rather than `Dropped`.

Adds catalog regressions over the in-memory transport: an open catalog
group through mid-group route changes (disconnect, withdrawal, a better
route, a reconnect) with a viewer staying or the track parked, then fresh,
returning, and bursts of short readers; late readers after a route change
or a park and resume; a fetch right after the last subscriber leaves; and a
seeded churn of subscribers, fetches, and routes that shrinks a failing
seed to the ops it needs.

Walkthrough

Group fetches now carry logical-track state through route discovery and into fetched-group recovery. Completed frame reads clear the recovery handle. New integration tests exercise catalog handover and seeded churn across relay and direct routes.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 1fc67

The churn test can falsely fail after a route change and produce a misleading reduced case. Narrow the error handling before relying on those test results.

P2 Badge Release logical demand after a cloned frame finishes

When a fetched group is consumed through poll_next_frame, this clone is installed on the returned frame::Consumer; however, frame::Consumer::poll_resumed returns on every successful read_all or terminal read_chunk without clearing its recovery state. If a caller retains that fully consumed frame handle, the cloned logical consumer therefore keeps TrackWeak used indefinitely, preventing the front from parking and retaining the upstream live subscription even though no unread payload remains. Release this logical demand when the frame payload completes while preserving it during partial-frame recovery.

Agreed, reproduced, and fixed in bd61bb5. frame::Consumer::poll_resumed now drops its recovery state once the payload is read (read_idx >= size), matching how group::Consumer drops it on Ok(None); partial-frame recovery is unchanged. This also stops a retained frame from holding a replaced copy's lease. Regression: resume::test::a_read_frame_releases_the_track, which fails without the fix.

A frame handed out from a fetched group cloned the group's recovery state,
including the logical track it holds, and kept it after its payload was
fully read. A caller retaining the frame kept the track in use, so it never
parked. Drop the recovery state once the payload is read, as a group does
once it is read to its end.

P2 Badge Release logical demand after fetch expiry

When a routed fetch has a max_delay and the caller retains its returned group or frame after the open source stalls, the terminal expiry path leaves this cloned logical inside Recover: group::Consumer::poll_resumed returns early when expired/ended, and frame::Consumer::poll_resumed returns early when expired, before clearing recovery. Demand therefore remains used and keeps the upstream subscription alive indefinitely even though the read has already returned None or Error::Old. The successful-frame cleanup added here does not cover these expiry paths; clear the logical recovery state when expiry terminates the read.

Classify only a route-loss error as a failed reader.

A lite-06 route loss can deliver Error::Unroutable after the 500 ms settle. The current Short branch then reports stuck. The synchronous drain() call does not prevent this because it only reads messages already queued.

Do not treat every Err or a closed channel as an allowed route loss. The reader task also forwards read_frame() errors, and it closes the channel when recv_group() returns Ok(None). Preserve those cases as failures.
