From 17e3f8ef627bb61d2dc3ac5e382f2c883258064a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lukasz Raczylo Date: Sat, 23 May 2026 11:31:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] fix: snapshot patterns for refresh-tracker and metadata URLs MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Two related lock-free snapshot refactors addressing the remaining post-v1.0.16 code-review findings. 1. refreshAttemptTracker: per-field atomic.Load/Store -> atomic.Value snapshot of *attemptState (refresh_coordinator.go). Previously each tracker held five independently-atomic fields. The cooldown-exit reset wrote cooldownEndNano = 0 first, then separately stored attempts = 1 and windowStartNano = now. A concurrent isInCooldown call could observe cooldownEndNano = 0 (reset just completed) with attempts still at MaxRefreshAttempts, immediately triggering a fresh cooldown — a benign double-trigger race that nonetheless meant the state machine had observable intermediate states. New design: state is a *attemptState (immutable) published via atomic.Value. All transitions (record/success/failure/window-reset/ cooldown-enter/cooldown-exit) go through mutateState, which runs a CAS loop: load current snapshot -> construct fresh snapshot -> CompareAndSwap. Either the entire new state publishes or none of it does — no intermediate visibility, no cross-field race. Under Yaegi this collapses 3-5 per-field atomic dispatches into one atomic.Value.Load on the read path. Write paths pay an extra allocation for the new snapshot but avoid the cross-field hazard. 2. MetadataSnapshot: hot-path readers use atomic.Value instead of metadataMu.RLock (middleware.go, types.go, main.go, utilities.go). middleware.ServeHTTP previously took metadataMu.RLock on every non-bypass request to read the single field issuerURL. Under Yaegi each RLock acquisition costs 1-5ms of interpreter dispatch. updateMetadataEndpoints now also publishes an immutable *MetadataSnapshot via atomic.Value; the hot-path reader loads it in one op via t.metadataSnap(). Falls back to the legacy metadataMu.RLock pattern when the snapshot is unpublished (some test setups initialize the struct fields directly without going through updateMetadataEndpoints). Less-frequent callers (helpers, logout, token_introspection) still take metadataMu.RLock and are unchanged. The snapshot strictly subsets the metadataMu-protected fields, so those readers see identical data. Note on atomic.Pointer[T]: this would have been the cleaner type but yaegi v0.16.1's stdlib (used by traefik:v3.7.1) exposes only the legacy unsafe.Pointer-based atomic primitives — no generic Pointer[T]. atomic.Value provides the same semantics via interface{} + type assert. All tests pass with -race; golangci-lint clean. --- main.go | 13 +++ middleware.go | 19 ++++- refresh_coordinator.go | 190 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- types.go | 27 ++++++ utilities.go | 13 +++ 5 files changed, 207 insertions(+), 55 deletions(-) diff --git a/main.go b/main.go index f56a79f..5b8fc31 100644 --- a/main.go +++ b/main.go @@ -517,6 +517,19 @@ func (t *TraefikOidc) updateMetadataEndpoints(metadata *ProviderMetadata) { introspectionURL := t.introspectionURL registrationURL := t.registrationURL + // Publish the read-mostly URL bundle atomically.
