Summary

  • scan every perry-ext-net Rust source for .is_open = true transitions and require the same receiver to set has_opened = true in the same block
  • reject receiver syntax the checker cannot prove and cover four transitions plus three already-open SocketState initializers, with a seven-site floor so scanner drift cannot produce an empty green result
  • identity-pin the intentional already-aborted TLS exception by path, function, and receiver, with stale and ambiguous exceptions failing the gate
  • add hermetic mutation self-tests and run the audit in the required lint job

Fixes #11056

Testing

  • python3 scripts/check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant.py --self-test
  • self-tests distinguish matches! expression initializers from struct patterns and reject missing has_opened: true in the expression argument
  • python3 scripts/check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant.py --list
  • python3 scripts/check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant.py
  • actual-tree mutation checks: removed a real transition pair, removed an initializer pair, and paired the TLS exception; all three invalid states were rejected
  • python3 -m py_compile scripts/check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant.py
  • scripts/run_lint_gates.sh --self-test
  • scripts/check_file_size.sh
  • SKIP_COMPILE_GATES=1 BASE_SHA=origin/main scripts/run_lint_gates.sh (83/84 runnable commands pass; only the public benchmark freshness failure tracked by ci: the lint gate cannot pass — Cargo.toml is a tracked public-benchmark input, so every merge train invalidates it (red on main; merged PRs are red too) #10799 remains and reproduces on clean main)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • CI now checks that network socket state remains consistent when sockets open, including during initialization.
    • The check accounts for a synthetic TLS-abort case where the socket does not open and validates its own behavior.
    • Coverage also includes nested code blocks, multiline strings, and patterns that should not be treated as socket initializations, helping catch incorrect state transitions across varied code structures.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The checker scans is_open = true assignments and is_open: true initializers. It checks same-block has_opened: true coverage, validates a named TLS exception, and runs its self-test and audit in CI.

Changes

Socket-Open Audit

Layer / File(s) Summary
Socket-open site detection
scripts/check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant.py
The scanner identifies assignments and initializers, tracks containing blocks, and excludes struct-pattern matches. It also handles raw newlines in strings.
Invariant validation and tests
scripts/check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant.py, scripts/ext_net_socket_open_exceptions.json
The evaluator checks assignments and initializers, counts scanned sites, and reports initializer sites that are unprovable or lack direct same-block has_opened: true. Self-tests cover nested blocks, initializer validation, multiline strings, and struct-pattern exclusion. The exception registry names the synthetic TLS abort path.
CI integration
.github/workflows/test.yml
The lint job runs the checker’s self-test and then the invariant audit in a step gated on !cancelled().

assignment only when its innermost enclosing block is the same block as the
receiver’s assignment; nested-block matches must not satisfy the invariant. Add
a self-test confirming an assignment inside a nested `if` triggers the

initializers that set is_open to true, not just assignments; verify each such
initializer also sets has_opened to true, or reject initializer forms the
checker cannot safely analyze.

Exclude turbofish commas when locating matches! arguments.

When a matches! expression uses Result::<SocketState, ()>::Ok(SocketState { is_open: true, ..base }) as its first argument, is_struct_pattern counts the generic-argument comma as a macro separator. It then classifies the initializer as a pattern, and scan_source skips it before checking has_opened: true. A missing field can pass the audit if the remaining sites still meet the seven-site floor. Split macro arguments without treating turbofish commas as separators, and add this case to self_test.

Held from merge train 259: this gate does not pass on current main.

check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant FAILED:
  - crates/perry-ext-net/src/turnloop_io.rs:425: s.is_open=true in on_connect
    does not set s.has_opened=true in the same block and has no documented exception

The gate is right that the pairing matters, and this is exactly the invariant #11056 asked for. But on_connect does set has_opened — just not in the same block. That arrangement is deliberate, from #10354's connect-flags fix: has_opened = true and connecting = false are written after the direct_tls branch, so a failed begin_client_upgrade returns early without recording the socket as opened. Both are set immediately before push_event(Connect), so the flags and the JS-visible event are consistent at the same tick.

So please don't resolve this with an exception entry. An exception would assert "this site legitimately leaves has_opened false", which is false here, and it would mask a genuine regression at that site later — unlike tls.rs's schedule_tls_abort, where leaving it false is correct because that socket never opens.

Two honest options:

  1. Widen the rule to same-FUNCTION-before-the-event pairing rather than same-block. That matches what the invariant actually protects (no observer sees is_open without has_opened), and it keeps the early-return-on-failure structure legal.
  2. Ask turnloop: replace tokio as Perry's event loop (P0–P8) #10354's author to move the is_open = true write down to join the other two after the TLS branch. Arguably more correct anyway — a socket whose TLS upgrade fails shouldn't be marked open at all — but it changes landed runtime behaviour, so it needs their call, not a gate's.

I'd take (1) as the gate change and file (2) as a separate question. Either way the gate must be green on main before it lands, or every subsequent PR inherits a red required context. Ping me and it rides the next train.

Your new gate has caught something, and it needs a design call from you before I can put this PR in a train.

On merge train 261 (this PR cherry-picked onto current main) the gate fails:

check_ext_net_socket_open_invariant FAILED:
  - crates/perry-ext-net/src/turnloop_io.rs:425: s.is_open=true in on_connect
    does not set s.has_opened=true in the same block and has no documented exception

Why your own CI was green. This PR's merge-base is f5cfbff882 (v0.5.1638), which predates #10354 (v0.5.1639). crates/perry-ext-net/src/turnloop_io.rs did not exist at that base — so the gate ran against a tree that did not contain its subject, and passed vacuously. That is the fourth of the four ways a gate can be unable to fail, from CLAUDE.md: the gate runs but its subject never did. Worth a rebase on principle, independent of the finding.

The finding itself is a false positive, but only just. on_connect on main does set both flags — it sets has_opened = true; connecting = false in a second block further down the same function, and that placement is deliberate, with a 20-line comment saying why: the direct-TLS branch between the two blocks can fail and return early, and a socket being destroyed must not be recorded as opened. So the invariant holds; your same-block rule cannot express it.

I would rather not paper this over with an exception entry, and I think you will agree once you see why. An entry keyed (turnloop_io.rs, on_connect, s) would silence the gate — and would keep silencing it if someone later deleted the second block. That is exactly the bug the gate exists to catch: I root-caused it during #10354's landing, where on_connect set is_open alone, leaving connecting true forever so readyState never left "opening". An exception here removes the protection precisely where it was earned.

So the question is yours: can the rule pair an is_open = true with a has_opened = true elsewhere in the same function, provided both are on the receiver and at least one is unconditional — rather than requiring the same block? That keeps the real failure (no assignment at all, anywhere) red, and admits this shape without an exemption.

I have dropped this PR from train 261 and taken the rest. Everything else about it is green, and the self-test is thorough (pair, missing, exception, stale, scope, nesting, masking, syntax, initializer, struct patterns, ambiguity) — this is a good gate, which is why I would like it to be able to stay armed here.
