From 7ff565a0684fc517d675f2216a1e12fc7cee368b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John O'Keefe Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2026 12:31:32 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] docs: Fix 12 critical issues in Phase 0.5 fsnotify implementation MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit CRITICAL FIXES (would cause test failures): 1. Integration test timing: 5s → 12s - Test waited 5s but implementation uses 10s batch delay - Would fail intermittently detecting all 20 files 2. Race condition in fileStability map access - Lock released between check and insert (lines 342-352) - Concurrent calls could create duplicate map entries - Fixed by holding lock during entire function 3. Missing concurrency protection in scanDirectory() - Multiple scans of same directory could run simultaneously - Could cause race conditions in fileStability map - Fixed with activeScans map to prevent duplicate scans MAJOR FIXES (production issues under load): 4. Unbounded goroutine spawn - Spawns unlimited goroutines for directory scans - 100 changed directories = 100 concurrent scans = 1000s of goroutines - Fixed with semaphore limiting concurrent scans to 10 - You correctly identified this as the same problem Phase 1 job queue solved 5. Memory leak in fileStability map - Entries never cleaned up if waitForFileStability() called concurrently - Fixed by proper lock pattern and cleanup on all code paths 6. No initial scan of root folders - Only watches for NEW changes, misses existing files - Fixed by adding performInitialScan() function MEDIUM FIXES (edge cases / code quality): 7. Removed unused batchTimeout variable - Was declared but never actually used 8. Completed smart event merging - Added sibling directory consolidation logic - Prevents redundant scans of sibling folders 9. Clarified subdirectory handling - Updated comment to explain subdirs trigger own events - scanDirectory() doesn't walk into them (by design) 10. Added cleanup on shutdown - New Close() method cleans up all maps - Waits for active scans with 5-second timeout 11. Test timing: 11s → 15s - Prevents flaky tests under load 12. Added database error handling - Checks libraryID.Valid before scanning - Handles orphaned folders gracefully NEW CODE ADDED: - scanSemaphore chan struct{} - limits concurrent scans to 10 - activeScans map[string]bool - prevents duplicate scans - activeScansMu sync.Mutex - protects activeScans - performInitialScan() - scans root folders on startup - Close() method - cleanup and graceful shutdown ARCHITECTURAL IMPROVEMENT: - Semaphore pattern (from Phase 1 job queue) applied at directory level - Higher concurrency limit (10 directory scans vs 3 library scans) - Prevents resource exhaustion while maintaining parallelism - All map entries properly cleaned up (no memory leaks) - Graceful shutdown with timeout Document size: 3,130 lines (increased from 2,974 lines) Total changes: 191 insertions, 35 deletions --- COMPLETE_INFRASTRUCTURE_ENHANCEMENT_PLAN.md | 226 +++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 191 insertions(+), 35 deletions(-) diff --git a/COMPLETE_INFRASTRUCTURE_ENHANCEMENT_PLAN.md b/COMPLETE_INFRASTRUCTURE_ENHANCEMENT_PLAN.md index 9682ad1..48b5982 100644 --- a/COMPLETE_INFRASTRUCTURE_ENHANCEMENT_PLAN.md +++ b/COMPLETE_INFRASTRUCTURE_ENHANCEMENT_PLAN.md @@ -60,10 +60,14 @@ Watch directories (not individual files) with file stability checks + smart even - `dirtyDirsMu sync.RWMutex` field - protects dirtyDirs map - `fileStability map[string]time.Time` field - tracks files waiting for mtime stabilization - `fileStabilityMu sync.RWMutex` field - protects fileStability map +- `scanSemaphore chan struct{}` field - limits concurrent directory scans (max 10) +- `activeScans sync.WaitGroup` field - tracks running scans for graceful shutdown +- `activeScansMu sync.Mutex` field - protects activeScans map - `markDirectoryDirty()` function - thread-safe directory marking with smart merging -- `processDirtyDirectories()` function - 10-second batch scanner +- `processDirtyDirectories()` function - 10-second batch scanner with semaphore - `waitForFileStability()` function - polls mtime until stable (Audiobookshelf approach) - `scanDirectory()` function - targeted single-directory scan +- `performInitialScan()` function - scans all root folders on startup - `watching atomic.Bool` field - prevents duplicate WatchChanges() calls - Unit tests in `internal/services/media_scanner_test.go` - Integration tests in `cmd/server/tests/fsnotify_integration_test.go` @@ -95,6 +99,9 @@ type MediaScanner struct { dirtyDirsMu sync.RWMutex // NEW - protects dirtyDirs fileStability map[string]time.Time // NEW - tracks files waiting for stable mtime fileStabilityMu sync.RWMutex // NEW - protects fileStability + scanSemaphore chan struct{} // NEW - limits concurrent scans (max 10) + activeScans map[string]bool // NEW - tracks currently scanning directories + activeScansMu sync.Mutex // NEW - protects activeScans pollInterval time.Duration watching atomic.Bool // NEW - prevents duplicate calls @@ -129,7 +136,9 @@ func NewMediaScanner(db *database.Queries) *MediaScanner { db: db, watcher: watcher, dirtyDirs: make(map[string]time.Time), - fileStability: make(map[string]time.Time), // NEW - for mtime stability checks + fileStability: make(map[string]time.Time), + scanSemaphore: make(chan struct{}, 10), // Max 10 concurrent directory scans + activeScans: make(map[string]bool), pollInterval: 60 * time.Second, // ... rest of existing initialization } @@ -160,6 +169,9 @@ func (s *MediaScanner) WatchChanges(ctx context.Context) error { s.watching.Store(false) }() + // Perform initial scan of all root folders + go s.performInitialScan(ctx) + // Start directory processor go s.processDirtyDirectories(ctx) @@ -172,7 +184,7 @@ func (s *MediaScanner) WatchChanges(ctx context.Context) error { select { case event, ok := <-s.watcher.Events: if !ok { return } - + // Add new directories to watcher if event.Has(fsnotify.Create) { if info, err := os.Stat(event.Name); err == nil && info.IsDir() { @@ -250,6 +262,18 @@ func (s *MediaScanner) markDirectoryDirty(dirPath string) { } } + // NEW: Check for sibling directories and consolidate to parent + parentDir = filepath.Dir(dirPath) + for existingDir := range s.dirtyDirs { + existingParent := filepath.Dir(existingDir) + if existingParent == parentDir && existingParent != dirPath && existingParent != "." { + // Found a sibling!
