Finishes quest/m1/resume-model-7542.md: the route-switching resume model passes its long run on every seed again, fixed at its cause.

Cause

moq-dev/moq#7542 changed Misses (rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs) so each join parks on a waiter of its own, and an answer wakes one shared answered.task: Mutex<Option<Waker>>. resolve overwrote that waker with whichever waiter resolved last. Before #7542, resolve polled each fill's outcome with the caller's waiter, so every waiter that parked got woken.

A cursor resolves from two paths with different waiters:

  • the group read, through its idle gate's waiter (Idle::waiter), and
  • the drop poll (Cursor::poll_drop → probe), with the caller's own waiter.

So when the read parks on "the feed ended, but a fill still owes a group" and the drop poll resolves afterwards, the drop poll's waker replaces the read's. When the fill answers, only the drop poll wakes. It settles the want (given up), but the read's idle gate never fires, so it stays parked on a want that is already gone. The read never reaches the track's end.

Seeds 1, 2 and 3 share this cause

All three minimal cases pass at #7542's parent (f1034b7^) and fail at #7542 (f1034b7) and on main. Traces on main show the same sequence each time: the serving copy's cursor hits "feed ended, misses.is_waiting()", the fill answers (NotFound for seed 1, a DeliveryTimeout refusal for seeds 2 and 3), the drop poll takes the answer, and the read stays behind its idle gate.

Fix

Answered::tasks is now a kio::WaiterList. resolve registers its waiter (deduplicated, weak, a no-op for Waiter::noop), and a join's answer takes the list under the lock and wakes every entry outside it. So an answer wakes every waiter that resolved since the last answer, as polling each outcome directly did before #7542. #7542's per-join answered keys and flat per-range costs stay as they are.

This also closes a related hole: a Waiter::noop resolve used to replace the real task's waker with a no-op one. Now it registers nothing.

Tests

  • miss::tests::an_answered_fill_wakes_a_read_a_drop_poll_resolved_after: a read parks on a fill, a drop poll resolves with another waiter, and the fill gives its group up. Both waiters wake, and the read ends with Ok(None) after the drop poll takes the answer first. It fails without the fix ("the parked read wakes").
  • resume_model::regressions gains the three seeds' minimal cases.
  • MOQ_RESUME_CASES=3000 … resume_model::readers_match_the_logical_track passes on seeds 1 to 16, 777, 4242, 12345 and the default 0x6d6f71.
  • cargo test -p moq-net --all-features passes (2829 lib tests, plus doc and integration targets). cargo clippy -p moq-net --all-features --all-targets -D warnings, cargo fmt --all --check, sh/text.sh and quest check --base origin/main pass too.
  • Not run locally (disk is tight on this host, so I built only moq-net): the workspace-wide just check lanes, moq-net-tests, and cargo doc. The change touches only a private struct's docs.

Choices made without asking

  • Kept the drop of seed 1's groups 0 to 10. A fill answering NotFound below a finished track's end is a real drop, and the model already treats groups landing below the end afterwards as not owed. The quest's symptom came from the read failing to end, so I fixed that and left the drop semantics alone.
  • Used kio::WaiterList rather than adding a second waker slot for the drop path, so any number of resolving paths or tasks stay covered with no special case.

Merge with main (head 2b9be61b63)

  • moq-dev/moq#7708 (2fc1cf19c9) and moq-dev/moq#7692 (1a1efa5a22) also touch miss.rs. Neither fixes this cause: fix(net): preserve owed groups across history resumes #7708 changes the cache floor in expire/expired and the ask window's lower bound, and fix(net): wake replaced copies when their gap grace expires #7692 adds a test. Neither touches Answered or resolve's waker, so this fix is still needed.
  • Rerun on the merged head: cargo fmt --all --check, cargo clippy -p moq-net --all-features --all-targets -- -D warnings, cargo test -p moq-net --all-features (2847 lib tests plus doc and integration targets), sh/text.sh and quest check --base origin/main pass. MOQ_RESUME_CASES=3000 cargo test -p moq-net --all-features --release --lib model::resume_model::readers_match_the_logical_track passes on seeds 1 to 16, 777, 4242, 12345 and the default 0x6d6f71.

Iteration (head 7407f12c61)

  • Merged main twice, with no conflicts (83185bfc00, 7407f12c61). Since the last round main brought moq-dev/moq#7485 (prefix routes in origin.rs), moq-dev/moq#7728 (route-loss restart tests) and a two-line resume_model.rs change. None of them touches miss.rs, Answered, or the read and drop resolve paths. moq-dev/moq#7708 only moves the cache floor and the ask window, as noted above. moq-dev/moq#7675 and moq-dev/moq#7696 are still open and don't touch miss.rs. feat(net)!: JS tracks serve the groups readers miss (JS ranges) #7696 is JS-only, and JS fills have no waker slot that could be overwritten.
  • 2273648f8c handles the automated findings on 1cd5bec:
    • CodeRabbit (no-op poll): fixed. The new test polls drops with Waiter::noop() between the parked read and the answer, and both real waiters still wake.
    • Pullfrog (rename an_answered_fill_wakes_the_task_that_read_last): refuted. The read resolves through its idle gate (rs/moq-net/src/util/idle.rs:23), which holds one task waker, so only the task that read last wakes. With an assertion that the first task wakes too, the test fails. A doc line now says why.
    • CodeRabbit (require an end in Model::owed once instance.ended): refuted. ended means some route declared the end. With finish: false, other live routes never do, so a reader they serve correctly stays open. With the suggested arm, readers_match_the_logical_track fails on seeds 3, 7, 8 and 10, each with an unended second route (seed 7: Up i0s1, Write i0s0 g11, Join, End i0s0). Reverted.
  • Checks on 7407f12c61: cargo fmt --all --check, cargo clippy -p moq-net --all-features --all-targets --release -- -D warnings, and cargo test -p moq-net --all-features --release (2848 lib tests plus integration and doc targets) pass. MOQ_RESUME_CASES=1000 passes on seeds 1, 2, 3, 7, 777 and 12345. sh/text.sh and quest check --base origin/main passed on 2273648f8c. I built in release only, to reuse one target on this disk-limited host.

…trand it

#7542 gave a cursor's misses one waker for every fill it waits on, replaced by
whichever path resolved last. A read parked behind its idle gate and a drop
poll resolve with different waiters, so the drop poll's took over: the fill's
answer woke only it, the drop poll settled the want, and the read's gate
stayed armed on a want already gone. The read never reached the track's end.

Register each resolving waiter in a kio::WaiterList instead, so an answer
wakes every waiter that resolved since the last one, as polling each fill
directly did before #7542. The resume model passes 3000 cases on seeds 1 to
16, 777, 4242, 12345 and its default again.

The shared waiter list restores wakeups for both read and drop paths without hard-coded per-path slots. No actionable bugs found in this static review. I did not run the tests, long model or concurrency stress.

ℹ️ Fix is correct and verified — one stale test comment to update.

Reviewed changes

  • Wake every waiter a fill answer parked (rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs) — Answered.task: Mutex<Option<Waker>> becomes tasks: Mutex<kio::WaiterList>; resolve now registers its waiter (deduplicated, Waiter::noop registers nothing) and a join's answer wakes every registered waiter, restoring the pre-#7542 behavior where each resolving path was woken directly.
  • Regression tests (rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs, rs/moq-net/src/model/resume_model.rs) — a read parked on a fill wakes even when a drop poll resolved after it, plus three fixed resume-model cases.

I verified the new unit test fails without the fix (an_answered_fill_wakes_a_read_a_drop_poll_resolved_after panics at the parked read wakes) and passes with it, and that model::resume_model::regressions passes. Lock discipline is sound: wake_by_ref inserts the key before taking the tasks list, and resolve registers before taking the keys, so an answer racing a resolve is always observed by one of the two orderings.

ℹ️ Stale test name and comment describe the removed single-waker behavior

The doc comment and name of the neighboring test still assert the semantics this PR removed, which will mislead the next reader of this file.

Technical details
# Stale test name and comment

## Affected sites
- `rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs:1990-1994` — `an_answered_fill_wakes_the_task_that_read_last`'s doc still says it "wakes the task that read it last", and the name says `read_last`. After this PR an answer wakes *every* waiter registered since the last answer, not just the last one.

## Required outcome
The name and doc should describe the multi-waiter behavior. The test body already polls with two distinct waiters (`first_waiter`, then `second_waiter`), so it now incidentally exercises both waking; only the description needs updating. No behavior change.

## Suggested approach
Rename to something like `an_answered_fill_wakes_every_task_that_read` and reword the doc to "every task that read since the last answer wakes". These lines sit outside this PR's diff hunks, so this is a body note rather than an inline comment.

Walkthrough

The change replaces the single saved task waker for answered fills with a waiter list. Each resolve call registers its waiter, and the answer wakes all registered waiters. New tests cover read and drop polls, route-end behavior, and fills that give up groups. The related quest entry and planning document are removed.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 1cd5b

The waiter-list change has no established production defect, but the new end-of-track regression can pass without observing reader completion. Strengthening that assertion would improve confidence; the remaining risk is bounded.

Explanation

The title names the fix in the Misses/Answered path: a fill answer now wakes every read it parks, so a drop poll cannot strand a read. The raw summary confirms the change in rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs, where Answered stores a kio::WaiterList and an answer wakes all registered waiters, with a regression test added. The title is specific and accurate, though it is long at 77 characters.

Explanation

The description is closely related to the changeset. It explains the root cause in rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs (a single waker in Answered being overwritten by the last resolving waiter), describes the fix (replacing it with kio::WaiterList), and lists the added regression tests and cases in resume_model.rs and the removed quest planning files. Level of detail is high and the content matches the raw summary and objectives.

Nitpick Require the reader to end when the instance has ended.

1175-1175: Trivial · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Require the reader to end when the instance has ended.

In Model::owed, a None track end passes when finish is false, even if the instance has ended. The first new case ends instance 1, so this case does not check that reader 0 receives the track end that its comment describes. An omitted track end would not fail this case.

Make the None arm check instance.ended for readers without a range. Readers with a range keep the current exemption.

Suggested fix
 		match (&reader.end, finish && instance.live().next().is_some()) {
-			(None, false) | (Some(Ok(())), true) => {}
+			(None, false) if !instance.ended || reader.ranges.is_some() => {}
+			(Some(Ok(())), true) => {}
 			(Some(Ok(())), false) if instance.ended || reader.ranges.is_some() => {}

Nitpick Poll with a no-op waiter after the read parks.

2107-2107: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Low value

Poll with a no-op waiter after the read parks.

reader.poll_drop forwards its waiter to probe, which passes it to Misses::resolve. resolve registers that waiter, and a no-op registration leaves existing entries unchanged. A no-op poll between the parked read and the fill answer runs the changed path without replacing the read's registration. The test polls only with real waiters, so a change that clears real registrations on a no-op poll would still pass. The kio tests cover this at list level only.

ℹ️ No new issues in the merge-only delta; the prior review's stale test name/comment still stands.

Reviewed changes

  • Merged main into the branch, leaving the PR's own added and removed lines byte-identical to the previously reviewed head.
  • Carried forward main's quest/m1/README.md reorg; the deleted quest file stays removed with no dangling references.
  • Picked up main's #7708 changes in rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs (expire/expired cache floor, ask's lower bound, one test), which do not touch Answered or resolve's waiter, so the fix and its lock ordering remain intact.

A no-op poll must leave the real registrations in place, so the answer
still wakes the parked read and the drop poll. Also note why the
neighboring test wakes only the last task: the read resolves through its
idle gate, which holds one task waker.

Responses to the automated findings on 1cd5bec:

  • Pullfrog, stale name and doc for an_answered_fill_wakes_the_task_that_read_last: declined, since the name is still accurate. The read resolves through its idle gate's waiter (rs/moq-net/src/util/idle.rs:23), and that gate holds one task waker, the task that parked it last. So the answer wakes only that task. I tried asserting that the first task wakes too, and the test failed (the task that parked first wakes). I added a doc line saying why, so it isn't misread again.
  • CodeRabbit, poll with a no-op waiter after the read parks: fixed in 2273648f8c. an_answered_fill_wakes_a_read_a_drop_poll_resolved_after now polls drops with Waiter::noop() between the parked read and the answer, and both real waiters still wake.
  • CodeRabbit, require an end in Model::owed once the instance ended: declined. instance.ended means some route declared the end. With finish: false, other live routes never declare it, and a reader those routes serve correctly stays open. That's why the existing arm only allows Some(Ok(())) when instance.ended and doesn't require it. With the suggested arm, readers_match_the_logical_track fails on seeds 3, 7, 8 and 10. Each minimal case has a second live route that never ended, for example seed 7: Up i0s1, Write i0s0 g11, Join, End i0s0. The seed 1 regression case doesn't depend on that check: without the fix it already fails on the groups written below the end, which the stranded read then owes (the "groups 0 to 10" symptom in the description).

  • Clarified the answered-fill test's intent (rs/moq-net/src/model/track/miss.rs): its doc now explains that the read resolves through its idle gate, which holds one task waker, so only the task that parked last wakes. This resolves the prior review's stale-name note; the reasoning matches util/idle.rs and Cursor::poll_peek/poll_drop.
  • Added a no-op-waiter drop poll in the drop-poll regression test, asserting the real registrations survive. WaiterList::register ignores noop waiters, so both real waiters still wake.
  • Merged main twice with no PR-side code delta; the fix and its lock ordering are unchanged.
