Two fixes found while reviewing #626. This PR is stacked on it, with base rye/acks-and-link-fixes, so only these two commits show; retarget to develop once #626 merges.

A region's object cache flush leaves nothing pointing at what it frees (fdda86251c)

An update whose texture entry runs past its end flushes the region's object cache through LLVOCache::removeEntry. Since LL's #1340, that also clears the region's mCacheMap, which holds the only references to its LLVOCacheEntrys. The entries were freed while still in use:

  • The update had been read from one of them. That happens in cacheFullUpdate → decodeBoundingInfo, or in createVisibleObjects → addNewObject, which was still walking the waiting list at the time.
  • The region's active, waiting and visible sets, the cache tree, the drawables' octree entries and the eviction cursor all kept bare pointers to them.
  • On develop, the update then went on to read its packer, which belonged to the freed entry.

The fix:

  • The update now asks for the removal (LLVOCache::requestRemoval). LLWorld::updateRegions carries it out before the regions' updates, when no object update is in progress.
  • Clearing a region's map first takes every entry out of whatever points at it (LLVOCacheEntry::releaseAll): the sets and waiting list are emptied, each entry leaves the cache tree and its octree entry, and is marked invalid. The references go to the batched release that saveObjectCache already uses.
  • The same clear is reached from a failed write in saveObjectCache on a region still in the world.

A full inbound packet queue leaves a reliable packet out unacked (670b85ad16)

Since LL's a1b68fb8ed, a reliable packet is acked as it comes off the socket, before it is queued. Once a priority ring was full at its cap of 8192 packets, LLPacketRing::pushPacket overwrote the oldest queued packet. That packet had already been acked, so its sender never sent it again. Its number had also been recorded, so a copy would have been treated as a duplicate.

The fix:

  • The ring now refuses a packet it has no room for.
  • bufferInboundPacket acks a reliable packet and records its number only if its ring has room. The packet left out is dropped as a lost packet would be, and its sender resends it.
  • An unreliable packet is still lost, as before, but now it is the newest rather than the oldest.
  • A packet the network impairment holds back is acked on arrival, and is still lost if it is released into a full ring.

Tests.

  • Each new test was watched failing with its defect restored. llmessage 29/29 and the viewer's 109/109 pass on Windows, and the viewer builds (RelWithDebInfo).
  • The ring test fills the low-priority ring with real UDP packets and sends one more.
  • The cache removal request and releaseAll are tested in llvocache_test. The region, LLVOVolume and LLWorld calls are not: newview_tests does not build the region.
  • Nothing has been run in world or under a sanitizer, and mac and Linux are unbuilt here.

An update whose texture entry runs past its end flushes the region's
object cache through LLVOCache::removeEntry, which since LL's #1340 also
clears the region's map of cached objects. The map holds the only
references to them, and they were freed while still in use. The update
had been read from one of them, by cacheFullUpdate's decodeBoundingInfo
or by createVisibleObjects's addNewObject, whose waiting list it was
walking; and the region's active, waiting and visible sets, the cache's
tree, the drawables' octree entries and the eviction walk's cursor kept
bare pointers to every one. On develop the update went on to read its
packer, which was the freed entry's.

The update now asks for the removal (LLVOCache::requestRemoval), and
LLWorld::updateRegions carries it out before the regions' updates,
outside any update of an object. Clearing a region's map takes every
entry out of what points at it first (LLVOCacheEntry::releaseAll): the
sets and the waiting list are emptied, each entry leaves the cache's
tree and its octree entry and is marked invalid, and the references go
to the release saveObjectCache already hands its entries to. The same
clear is reached from a failed write in saveObjectCache on a region
still in the world, at retirement or a forced disconnect.

The request and the release are tested; the region, LLVOVolume and
LLWorld, which newview_tests does not build, are not. Nothing has been
run in world or under a sanitizer.

Since LL's a1b68fb a reliable packet taken into the inbound queue is
acked as it comes off the socket, before it is queued. Once its priority
ring was full at its ceiling of 8192 packets, LLPacketRing::pushPacket
overwrote the oldest packet queued: one acked as it came in, which its
sender never sent again, and whose number was recorded, so that a copy
would have been taken for a duplicate.

The ring now refuses a packet it has no room for, and bufferInboundPacket
acks a reliable packet and records its number only where its ring has
room. The packet left out is dropped as the network might have dropped
it, and its sender sends it again. An unreliable packet is lost as one
was before, the newest now rather than the oldest. A packet the network
impairment holds back is acked as it arrives, and is still lost where
the impairment releases it into a full ring.

The test fills the low priority ring with reliable packets and sends one
more. With the ring overwriting, that one was acked, and the first was
never read, even once the last was sent again.

Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Reliable packets are no longer acknowledged when the inbound queue is full, allowing them to be retried without displacing packets already queued.
    • Cached objects are now removed through deferred cleanup when malformed updates are received, and region cache entries are released during cleanup.
    • Cache entries requested for removal are processed without duplicate requests causing repeated removals.

The packet ring now reports and enforces capacity, and inbound packet handling checks queue space before ACK and sequence tracking. Object-cache cleanup now releases associated references and supports deferred removal of requested region entries.

Changes: Inbound Packet Capacity

Layer / File(s) Summary
Packet ring capacity
indra/llmessage/llpacketring.h, indra/llmessage/llpacketring.cpp
hasRoom() reports whether the ring can accept a packet. pushPacket() returns success and refuses the incoming packet when the ring is full at its maximum size.
Inbound queue and reliable packet handling
indra/llmessage/message.cpp, indra/llmessage/tests/message_test.cpp
Inbound handling checks queue capacity before ACK and sequence tracking. Tests verify that a full queue does not acknowledge or displace a packet, and that a resent packet is handled after the queue is drained.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 670b8

The changes address cache lifetimes and queue overflow, but a malformed update followed by cached updates can leave some objects missing until another simulator update arrives. A full queue also delays acknowledgements for already-delivered packets. These narrow edge cases warrant owner awareness and follow-up.

I’m a rabbit with a packet to spare,
I check for a slot before sending it there.
Full rings now refuse what they cannot contain,
And queued cache entries are released with care.
I nibble a carrot, then hop through the queue,
While region-cache requests wait their turn too.

Minor follow-up Check the override's object ID before applying it.

3263-3265: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Check the override's object ID before applying it.

After a cache flush, a GLTF override can outlive its object. applyCacheMiscExtras then applies it to any new object that reuses the local ID, because it matches on local ID only. Skip overrides whose mObjectId differs from the object's ID. Null IDs stay valid and are still backfilled.

Suggested fix
     if (iter != mImpl->mGLTFOverridesLLSD.end())
     {
+        // The override belongs to a different object that previously held this local ID.
+        if (!iter->second.mObjectId.isNull() && iter->second.mObjectId != obj->getID())
+        {
+            return;
+        }
         // UUID can be inserted null, so backfill the UUID if it was left empty
         if (iter->second.mObjectId.isNull())

Minor follow-up Deferred cache release can discard probe hits before their objects are created.

3263-3265: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Deferred cache release can discard probe hits before their objects are created.

When a malformed volume update calls requestRemoval, the flush runs later in LLWorld::updateRegions, after idleNetwork returns. A cached object update processed in the same idleNetwork run can still hit LLViewerRegion::probeCache. A hit queues no request.

The flush in clearVOCacheFromMemory then releases every mCacheMap entry, including that hit. releaseAll removes it from the visible and waiting sets and the octree. createVisibleObjects never creates the object, and requestCacheMisses never requests its ID. The base code cleared the cache when the malformed update ran, so the later probe missed and requested the object.

The object returns only if the simulator sends another update for that ID. The impact is limited to malformed-update cases where the region handle is registered and its region is live.

The fix should either queue requests for the IDs the flush releases, or make probeCache report a miss while a removal for that region is pending. Keep the deferred release. The update in LLVOVolume may still read from the cached objects.

Minor follow-up Defer the ACK for impaired packets until their ring push succeeds.

69-72: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Defer the ACK for impaired packets until their ring push succeeds.

Packets held by ALNetImpairment are acknowledged and recorded on arrival, while the ring still has room. If the ring reaches its ceiling before the packet is released, the unchecked pushPacket call discards the packet. The sender has already received the ACK and does not retransmit it. The impairment layer is compiled out of download builds, so this affects only non-release builds where impairment is enabled. Keep the ACK and sequence record tied to the successful push, or otherwise make a rejected release retryable.

71-71: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟡 Minor | 💤 Low value

Throttle the full-ring warning in pushPacket.

When the priority ring is full, each rejected packet writes a PacketRing warning. Nothing limits that rate. Under sustained overflow, this adds one log write per inbound packet on the receive path. Count the drops and log a summary at a fixed interval instead.

Nitpick Make the region cache clear observable in the removal test.

826-829: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Make the region cache clear observable in the removal test.

The removal test stubs LLWorld::getRegionFromHandle to return nullptr. As a result, the region clear in LLVOCache::removeEntry never runs in the test. Deleting that clear leaves every assertion unchanged, so the test still passes.

Counting calls in the existing stubs does not cover this path. The clearVOCacheFromMemory stub never runs while the lookup returns nullptr. A counter in getRegionFromHandle records only the lookup, not the clear. Returning a non-null stub region is not a safe alternative, because the test build does not construct an LLViewerRegion.

Add a test seam that exposes the region clear for the removed handle. The seam must keep the production world lookup and region clear together. The test must be able to substitute an observer for the clear and assert on the handle it receives after removeRequestedEntries(). The exact seam design needs a decision from the code owners.

849-849: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Record octree detachment in the releaseAll test.

releaseAll calls removeOctreeEntry() on each entry. The test links the stub, and the stub's removeOctreeEntry() is empty. None of the test's assertions reads a value that the call changes. A regression that drops the detachment call would not fail this test. Record each call in the stub, then assert the recorded entries in the test.

Nitpick Cover a full high-priority inbound ring in this test.

777-780: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Cover a full high-priority inbound ring in this test.

The new test fills only the low-priority inbound ring. Every packet it sends uses one message number, which isHighPriorityMessage classifies as low priority. An ACK gate that checks only the low-priority ring would still pass this test.

Add a case that fills mHighPriorityInbound to the 8192-packet ceiling. Choose message-number bytes that isHighPriorityMessage classifies as high priority. Its result depends on more than the first two header bytes, so take the bytes from that function rather than from the low-priority packet. Then assert what the low-priority overflow case asserts: the next reliable packet is dropped, it is not counted in acksWaitingFor, and acksWaiting remains at the ring capacity.

Nitpick Assert the inbound sequence state after the drop.

809-821: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Assert the inbound sequence state after the drop.

The new test checks the ACK count, the buffered count, and the handled count. It does not check the circuit's inbound ID. The code comment at message.cpp says a dropped packet is "neither acked nor its number recorded," but no assertion checks the second part. If the drop path called checkPacketInID for left_out, the resend would still be handled and every current assertion would still pass.

Add an accessor to ll_test::CircuitProbe that returns the circuit's mPacketsInID. The existing friend declaration in llcircuit.h already grants access. After line 811, assert that the value equals left_out. At that point the expected next ID is left_out, and an early checkPacketInID call would advance it past left_out.

…t on release

A copy of a reliable packet already read is acked when its queue has no
room for it, as it is when there is room. It was left out unacked, and
its sender went on sending it until the queue drained. The duplicate
check, which records nothing for a packet it has not seen, now runs
before the check for room.

A packet the network impairment holds back is no longer acked, nor its
number checked, as it arrives. checkMessages does both as it reads the
packet once it is released, and a queue with no room for it then leaves
it out unacked, rather than losing a packet already acked. Its number is
checked out of order, as the impairment means it to arrive.

The warning for a packet left out is given once a second at the most,
with how many were left out since the last.

The full-queue test now fills either ring, checks the circuit's next
number after the packet left out, and sends a copy of a packet already
read into the full ring.

…to it

The removal of a region's object cache that an update asks for is
carried out at the next update of the regions, and what the region took
into its cache in between went with the rest, neither made nor asked
for again. A probe found the object cached and asked for nothing, and an
object sent whole was kept in the cache. Removing at once, as before,
left a later probe to miss and a whole object to go into a fresh cache.

Until the removal, a probe now misses and an object sent whole is asked
for again, as they would be with the cache removed.

The releaseAll test now sees each entry leave its octree entry, and the
removal test the request's state. The region's probe and full update
have no test, as newview_tests does not build the region.
