CI / shellcheck + selftests (pull_request) Successful in 1m17s
`unshare_mutable_paths`' comment recorded that upstream had stopped rewriting `dep-<target>` in place, on a measurement taken against 1.100.0-nightly. It had not. Two unrelated cargo changes landed within four days of each other and between them moved the switch that turns the behaviour on and the path it writes to: - cargo PR #17382 (2026-08-22) demoted `-Z checksum-freshness` to a gate and gave `build.fingerprint` the choice, defaulting to `mtime`. Setting only the gate is accepted and does nothing, which is exactly the result that was read as a withdrawal. - build-dir layout v2 (cargo PR #17354, stable 1.100.0 on 2026-11-12, nightly default since 1.99) moved the file from `.fingerprint/<unit>/dep-*` to `build/<pkg>/<hash>/fingerprint/dep-*`. Measured 2026-08-26 on 1.100.0-nightly (e8cb624d5): same toolchain, same clone procedure, one env var apart — with the gate alone a `cp -al` clone mutates only the build/ and *.d families; add `CARGO_BUILD_FINGERPRINT=content` and the source's dep-info file is mutated through the shared inode again. The hazard is intact. So the suite now exports both switches, and its strongest scenario runs again on current nightlies — verified passing against both layouts. Its control note learned the v2 path too: it looked for the v1 path only, and so printed "does NOT rewrite ... in place" three lines beneath a listing that showed the rewrite. Every claim these comments make is now dated and cited, because the defect being fixed is a comment that cited one measurement and silently stopped reproducing. Layout v2 also drags the artifacts under `build/`, which collapses this function's real-copy set from 21.3% of a target dir to 99.998%. That is a live cost, not a correctness problem, and it is filed as gitdan-actions#14 rather than fixed here. Part of daniel/gitdan#62.

# CROSS-REPO CONTRACT: the dot-prefixed names left in a cache root
|
|
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
#
|
|
# The volume these scripts write into is also swept by a host-level arbiter
|
|
# that runs outside any job and outside this repo: daniel/gitdan's
|
|
# `scripts/ci-cache-reclaim.sh`. It reclaims the dot-prefixed trees a killed
|
|
# job strands here, and it reads the reader markers below to decide whether one
|
|
# of those trees is still live. Its `LEFTOVER NAMING CONTRACT` block is the
|
|
# canonical description of the arrangement; what follows is the producing
|
|
# side's half — which names this repo creates, and what changing one obliges.
|
|
#
|
|
# Created directly under a cache root:
|
|
#
|
|
# .stage-<tag> cache-lib.sh, hardlink_clone_into(): the tree a
|
|
# clone is built in before the atomic rename that
|
|
# gives it its real name. <tag> is unique per job
|
|
# per run, so a job killed before the rename
|
|
# strands a whole hardlink clone under a name no
|
|
# later run reuses. Nothing in this repo sweeps it.
|
|
# .publish-new-<tag> publish-snapshot.sh: the staged snapshot, between
|
|
# its clone and the swap. Strands the same way.
|
|
# .publish-old-<key>-<tag> publish-snapshot.sh: the rotated-away generation,
|
|
# kept while a reader still holds it and swept by
|
|
# the next publish of the same key — if there ever
|
|
# is one. A merged or renamed branch never
|
|
# publishes again, and its last one stays.
|
|
# .evicting-<name>-<pid> prune-cache.sh, evict_dir(): a cache renamed
|
|
# aside so the decision to unlink it can be retaken
|
|
# after the rename. Swept at the start of every
|
|
# prune pass, so it only strands when this repo's
|
|
# workflow stops running at all.
|
|
# .reading-<source>-<tag> cache-lib.sh, reader_lock_acquire(): NOT garbage.
|
|
# It is the live-reader signal the arbiter reads,
|
|
# and the one shape it must never delete — removing
|
|
# one clears the way to unlink a tree out from
|
|
# under an in-flight walk, which is the silent
|
|
# truncation this whole interlock exists to
|
|
# prevent.
|
|
#
|
|
# THE RULE, which the arbiter states as its own: no new dot-prefixed entry
|
|
# under a cache root without a matching prefix in that script. ADDING a shape
|
|
# counts exactly as much as renaming one, because that script enumerates by
|
|
# explicit prefix rather than by dotglob — deliberately, since a dotglob would
|
|
# pull reader markers into the candidate stream alongside the trees they
|
|
# protect. A shape it has not been told about is not handled conservatively, it
|
|
# is invisible: an unreclaimed staging tree is a full clone of a multi-GB
|
|
# target dir on the one volume whose entire problem is disk.
|
|
#
|
|
# The two `.publish-*` names predate the contract and were outside it when this
|
|
# block was written — the rule catching an uncovered shape on its first
|
|
# application. `.publish-new-` is the one that mattered: it is tagged per job
|
|
# per run exactly as `.stage-` is, so a publisher killed before the swap
|
|
# strands a tree under a name no later run of that script matches, which is
|
|
# precisely the shape only the arbiter can reach. Bringing both in is tracked
|
|
# as daniel/gitdan#30.
|
|
#
|
|
# The two lists are meant to be the same length: the five names above, and the
|
|
# prefix constants that script DECLARES — not the subset it enumerates as
|
|
# reclaim candidates, which is smaller because `.reading-` is read and never
|
|
# swept. A shape here without a constant there is one side having changed
|
|
# without telling the other, and it is cheapest to notice by counting.
|
|
#
|
|
# The two staleness constants the arbiter mirrors are part of the same
|
|
# contract, and that half has a direction to it — see CACHE_READ_STALE_SECONDS
|
|
# below and STALE_LOCK_SECONDS in prune-cache.sh.

|

# A cache key names a REF. What a target directory holds is the product of a
|
|
# ref and a BUILD CONFIGURATION, and the two are not the same thing: emowheel
|
|
# builds the same ref twice on every push, once for the host and once for
|
|
# wasm32, in two jobs that run concurrently. Keyed on the ref alone both
|
|
# resolve to one CARGO_TARGET_DIR, and Cargo's build-directory lock is
|
|
# exclusive — so the second job sits on `Blocking waiting for file lock on
|
|
# build directory` for the length of the first, holding a runner capacity slot
|
|
# while doing nothing (daniel/gitdan#60).
|
|
#
|
|
# A lineage is that second dimension, and it is expressed as ONE DIRECTORY
|
|
# LEVEL above the per-ref directories rather than as a suffix on the key:
|
|
#
|
|
# <cache-root>/target-<key> no lineage (the flat layout)
|
|
# <cache-root>/<lineage>/target-<key> a lineage
|
|
#
|
|
# Nesting rather than suffixing is what keeps every existing reader correct
|
|
# without teaching any of them a new name shape. `prune-cache.sh` resolves
|
|
# liveness by recomputing `target-<cache_key(branch)>` for every branch on
|
|
# origin and evicting whatever does not match — a suffixed `target-<key>-wasm32`
|
|
# matches nothing, so it would be classified dead and unconditionally evicted
|
|
# on every single run. The host-level arbiter in daniel/gitdan reads the same
|
|
# shape (its BRANCH_DIR_RE), and a suffixed name falls out of it too: not
|
|
# evicted there, but never a candidate either, so a whole lineage becomes
|
|
# invisible to the global disk budget. Nesting leaves both matchers reading
|
|
# exactly the names they already read, one directory deeper.
|
|
#
|
|
# ONE LEVEL, AND NOT TWO. The arbiter walks a volume to CI_CACHE_MAX_DEPTH,
|
|
# which is 2 — `_data/target-<key>` and `_data/<lineage>/target-<key>`. It is
|
|
# kept tight there on purpose (a deeper walk starts meeting Cargo's own
|
|
# `incremental/<crate>-<hash>` directories, which match the same name shape and
|
|
# must never be evicted individually), so a lineage is a single path component
|
|
# and validate_cache_lineage refuses one containing a slash.
|
|
|
|
# Directory names daniel/gitdan's ci-cache-reclaim.sh refuses to descend into
|
|
# (its CI_CACHE_NODESCEND_NAMES). A lineage named one of these puts its whole

# truncating write. Measured directly (Linux, ext4, cargo 1.9x nightly:

|
# the artifact built from base's sources. When B merges and base next builds,
|
|
# Cargo reads that dep file, finds the checksums match the (now merged)

# only UNLOCKS the feature, and `build.fingerprint` SELECTS it, defaulting

# Measured on cargo 1.100.0-nightly (e8cb624d5 2026-08-22): with the gate
|
|
# alone a `cp -al` clone mutates only the build/ and *.d families; add
|
|
# `CARGO_BUILD_FINGERPRINT=content` and the source's dep-info file is
|
|
# mutated through the shared inode again. Same toolchain, same clone, one
|
|
# env var apart. The hazard was never removed — it was switched off.
|
|
#
|
|
# 2. THE PATH MOVED. Build-dir layout v2 (`-Z build-dir-new-layout`, cargo
|
|
# 1.91) became the nightly default in cargo 1.99 (PR #17258) and was
|
|
# stabilised by PR #17354, merged 2026-08-18, shipping in cargo 1.100.0
|
|
# stable on 2026-11-12. Under v2 there is no `<profile>/.fingerprint` and
|
|
# no `<profile>/deps` at all: everything is regrouped per build unit under
|
|
# `<profile>/build/<pkg>/<hash>/{fingerprint,out,run}/`, artifacts
|
|
# included. Bracketed locally: cargo 1.97.1 and 1.98.0-nightly write v1,
|
|
# 1.100.0-nightly writes v2.
|
|
#
|
|
# The `-name .fingerprint` clause below therefore matches nothing under a v2
|
|
# Cargo, and the dep-info file is covered only because the `-name build` clause
|
|
# happens to swallow its new home. That is belt-and-braces by accident, not by
|
|
# design — and the same accident makes this function real-copy essentially the
|
|
# whole tree, because the artifacts moved under `build/` too. Measured on one
|
|
# scratch crate (serde + serde_json + regex), same sources both ways:
|
|
#
|
|
# cargo 1.97.1 (layout v1) 27.0 MB unshared of 126.7 MB — 21.3%
|
|
# 1.100.0-nightly (layout v2) 105.9 MB unshared of 105.9 MB — 99.998%
|
|
#
|
|
# So the guard still holds and the saving does not. Deliberately NOT fixed
|
|
# here: adjusting the selection is a change to what gets hardlinked on every
|
|
# consumer, which wants its own change and its own review, and the deadline is
|
|
# cargo 1.100.0 stable on 2026-11-12. Tracked as gitdan-actions#14.
|
|
#
|
|
# The historical v1 figure this block used to quote stands as measured: on a
|
|
# 6.9 GB Bevy workspace target dir the unshared set was .fingerprint 22 MB +
|
|
# build/ 237 MB + a handful of dep-info files — about 3.7% of the tree, against
|
|
# 100% for a plain `cp -a`. It describes layout v1 only.
|
|
#
|
|
# `incremental/` is deliberately left shared: rustc writes each incremental
|
|
# session to a fresh `s-*-working` directory and finalises it with a rename,
|
|
# and garbage-collects old sessions by unlinking directory entries — neither
|
|
# of which mutates a shared inode. CI should still set CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0,

# A hardlink clone reads its source over many seconds. The publish side
|
|
# rotates a snapshot with two renames and then unlinks the generation it
|
|
# rotated away — and unlinking entries out from under an in-flight directory
|
|
# walk is what produces a SILENTLY truncated clone: `cp -al` reports the
|
|
# entries it manages to stat, and simply never sees a subdirectory that was
|
|
# unlinked before it read the parent's listing. Exit status alone does not
|
|
# catch that case.
|
|
#
|
|
# So the two sides interlock through a marker file, and the ordering is what
|
|
# makes it sound rather than probabilistic:
|
|
#
|
|
# Consumer: create .reading-<snap>-<tag> -> stat <snap> -> cp -al
|
|
# Publisher: mv <snap> aside -> mv new into place -> scan for markers
|
|
# -> unlink the rotated-away generation
|
|
#
|
|
# If a consumer's `stat` resolved to the OLD generation, that stat happened
|
|
# before the publisher's first rename, so its marker — created strictly
|
|
# earlier still — was already on disk before the publisher's scan, which
|
|
# happens strictly after that rename. The publisher therefore cannot miss it.
|
|
# A consumer that creates its marker after the scan necessarily resolves the
|
|
# path to the NEW generation, which is not the one being unlinked.
|
|
#
|
|
# The wait is bounded (CACHE_READ_GRACE_SECONDS). Exceeding it does not force
|
|
# the unlink: reclamation of that generation is DEFERRED to a later publish
|
|
# instead. The residual is therefore disk, not correctness.

# it), and its copies must be GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO this one. Raise this for
|
|
# longer jobs while that one stays at 7200 and the arbiter reads a marker whose
|
|
# owner still considers it live as stale, then deletes the tree under an
|
|
# in-flight clone; its minimum-age guard does not back-stop that, because a
|
|
# clone holding a three-hour-old marker has a staging tree roughly three hours
|
|
# old too, so both of its guards pass. Raise theirs first. Lowering this one

# The staging + rename is what closes the concurrent-seed race structurally
|
|
# rather than by runner topology: a second job sharing this cache key either
|
|
# sees DST absent (and stages its own clone, losing the rename harmlessly) or
|
|
# sees it complete. There is no observable half-populated state, because a
|
|
# directory rename is atomic and DST is never written through.
|
|
#
|
|
# The rename is necessary but NOT sufficient, and that gap is what this
|
|
# function's retry loop closes. An atomic rename of a TRUNCATED tree publishes
|
|
# a truncated tree atomically. Three things can truncate one:
|
|
#
|
|
# * `cp -al` failing partway (a source entry vanished after readdir listed
|
|
# it) — caught by checking its exit status, which is why that status is
|
|
# read into a variable here rather than left to an ambient `set -e` the
|
|
# CALL SITES suppress anyway by invoking this function as a condition;
|
|
# * `cp -al` succeeding while having silently never seen a subtree that was
|
|
# unlinked before it read the parent's listing — caught only by the entry
|
|
# count, since there is no error to report;
|
|
# * the source being replaced wholesale mid-walk, so the clone splices two
|
|
# generations — caught by comparing the source directory's inode before
|
|
# and after.
|
|
#
|
|
# All three are verified on every attempt and a failing one restarts the
|
|
# clone; a tree that fails the last attempt is deleted and reported, never
|
|
# renamed into place. Combined with the reader marker (held across the copy,
|
|
# which is what stops the publish side unlinking underneath it in the first
|
|
# place), a partial tree cannot reach DST.
|
|
#
|
|
# `lock-id`, when given, writes this job's cache lock INTO the staging tree so
|
|
# the directory already carries it the instant it appears under its final
