📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe Next App Route release fixture now detects route-handler bypasses and supports configurable verifier passes per cold start. It validates positive settings, reports total batches, preserves forced-GC checks, and documents the new defaults and overrides. ChangesNext route verification
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The release fixture now performs deeper default verification and adds a hard bypass diagnostic, but the new default is currently failing, so merge should wait for the underlying fix or an explicit temporary pin; host cleanup and request-ID tracking also need owner follow-up.

… per cold start a knob (default 10) in the release App Route fixture Port the armed perry-host.js from tests/fixtures/next-app-route (byte-identical) into tests/release/packages/next-app-route and grep every cold-start log for 'generated handler bypassed' as a hard failure — the guard's only signal is the host log, verify.mjs exits 0 when it fires. Replace the hard-coded two verifier runs per cold start with PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_VERIFIERS_PER_START (default 10), so the default run is 10 cold starts x 10 passes = 100 batches, matching #8040's 100-iteration bullet and tests/test_next_app_route_dylib.sh. With the default this fixture is red on today's main because of #8163; =2 recovers the previous coverage.
Per-cold-start passes buy restart/ABI/parity/bypass-guard coverage at ~2-3 copying minors per fresh process; collection depth in one warm process is PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_WARM_PASSES (#8215). Neither substitutes for the other.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Reap the server before fail exits.
Several failure paths in run_cold_start call fail before the normal cleanup_server call. Because fail exits the shell, the background host can remain running after a failed cold start. The new bypass diagnostic makes this path reachable even when verifier passes return zero.
Install trap cleanup_server EXIT after cleanup_server is defined, or call cleanup_server before each failure.

Balance the request-ID ledger on every terminal path.
If work rejects, the rejection path leaves the ID in enteredRequestIds. A later bypass with the same ID can pass the guard. Concurrent requests with the same ID can also produce a false bypass because Set stores one entry.
Use a per-ID count and decrement it on fulfillment and rejection. verify.mjs uses unique IDs only and does not cover these cases.

Part of #8040 (DoD audit, 2026-08-16). Test-only,
tests/release/packages/next-app-route/only.(a) The
routeModule.handlebypass guard, armed and gatedperry-host.jsis now byte-identical totests/fixtures/next-app-route/perry-host.js(#8161): it wrapsrouteModule.handle, records the request id that passes through it, and logs<id>: generated handler bypassed routeModule.handlefor any request whose response was produced without entering the generatedAppRouteRouteModule.handle. That was already run against this fixture onmain3c95020f8(10 cold × 2 verifiers PASS, 0 guard fires in 520 batches — #8040 comment).The guard's signal lives only in the host log: it throws inside a
.then()after the response is already sent, soverify.mjsstill exits 0 when it fires (measured in #8161: 22 log hits, exit 0, with the wrapper removed).fixture.shtherefore greps every cold-start log forgenerated handler bypassedas a hard failure, in the existing forbidden-diagnostic check (now oneFORBIDDEN_DIAGNOSTICSregex, with the matching lines echoed beforefail). Sabotage-checked without a rebuild: a log with a plantedError: 7: generated handler bypassed routeModule.handleline matches the regex (would fail), a cleanREADY+PASS: 21 …log does not.(b)
PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_VERIFIERS_PER_START, default 10The two hard-coded
verify.mjsruns per cold start (cold verifier 1/warm verifier 2) become a loop overPERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_VERIFIERS_PER_START(positive integer, default 10), labelledcold verifier 1/N/warm verifier k/N. The default is now 10 cold starts × 10 passes = 100 batches, the same shape astests/test_next_app_route_dylib.shand #8040's "100-iteration run of the 20-way concurrent request batch" bullet. The[6/7],[7/7]andPASSlines print the totals.The forced-evacuation arm (
PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_FORCED_GC=1, off by default, #8163) is untouched apart from inheriting the loop; the header comment describes the new default, the guard, and the state below.Plainly: with the default 10 this fixture is intermittently RED on today's
mainThat is the knob doing its job. #8163's last comment ("Reproduces under DEFAULT GC") measured 8 of 500 batches losing one response against a warm process with no GC knobs at all — every failure right after a
[gc-copy-minor] ran … in_place=falseline,TypeError: value is not a functionin the host log, empty body inverify.mjs. Two passes per process finished before the first copying minor (~pass 3 in a fresh process), which is exactly why this fixture read green while #8040's 100-iteration bullet was red.PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_VERIFIERS_PER_START=2recovers the previous coverage and passes.So this is expected to merge after #8163's fix (or with the release harness pinning
=2until then) — owner's call on the order.Two regimes, two knobs (coordination with #8215)
This knob and #8215's
PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_WARM_PASSEScover different regimes, and neither substitutes for the other:PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_VERIFIERS_PER_START(this PR) — restart / ABI / parity / bypass-guard coverage across N fresh processes. Each 10-pass process runs ~2–3 copying minors (the first lands around pass 3; measured directly in this PR's validation: every 10-pass cold start logged 3[gc-copy-minor] ranlines underPERRY_GC_DIAG=1), so the default is genuinely sensitive to per-collection bugs — a fresh process just lives permanently in the early/small-heap regime.PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_WARM_PASSES(test(next): add the warm-process soak arm #8163's residual needs #8215) — collection depth in ONE process, where the heap grows and the minor cadence accelerates (8–9 passes between minors early, tightening to 2–3 by pass ~99). Only a warm process reaches that regime.#8215 touches the same
[6/7]region offixture.sh; this PR's diff there is deliberately small, and I will rebase in whichever direction the owner decides. Whichever of #8210/#8215 lands second must not drop the other's knob — they are complementary, not alternatives.Validation (bench mini, macOS arm64,
perryfrom aperry-devbuild ofmain-equivalent07c8040bf,PERRY_MODULE_JOBS=2,PERRY_GC_DIAG=1on the serving arms)All three arms ran the full
fixture.shend to end (npm ci +next build+ oracle + provider archives + app dylib + serving) at branch commit0c65f41b4; the one later commit is comment-only (verified: zero non-comment diff lines infixture.sh).PERRY_LLVM_INPROCESS=0was set for the app compile — see "not this PR's bug" below.PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_VERIFIERS_PER_START=2PASS next-app-route (20 batches, forced-evacuation arm not run — #8163), 10 cold starts x 2, 0 guard firesnormal cold start 0: warm verifier 3/10 failed,verify.mjsUnexpected end of JSON input[gc-copy-minor] ran→ 2TypeError: value is not a function, 0 bypass firesTypeErrors, 0 bypass firesVerifier pass 3 is exactly where the first copying minor of a fresh process lands, so the failing batch matches #8163's cadence data precisely. The
=2arm passing plus the default arm failing on the first collection is the knob's whole point: the old hard-coded 2 passes ended before the collector ever moved an object.Guard sabotage check (no rebuild): the fixture's
FORBIDDEN_DIAGNOSTICSregex was run against a log with a plantedError: 7: generated handler bypassed routeModule.handleline (matches → run fails) and against a cleanREADY+PASS: 21 …log (no match). The armed-host + this grep combination also has live evidence from the sibling gate: 0 guard fires across all serving runs.Mini log paths:
~/perry-bench.noindex/tmp-8040-knob/ext-v2.log,ext-v10.log,ext-v10-b.log, per-cold-start host logs under~/perry-bench.noindex/tmp-8040-knob/logs-ext-v10*/perry-normal-0.log, fixture build logs in~/perry-bench.noindex/build-knob/.Re-validated after rebasing onto
mainwith #8211 (forced arm now ON by default)#8211 flipped
PERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_FORCED_GCto default 1, so the forced arms now run through this PR's new verifier loop. Rebased ontoc926cf142, rebuiltperryfrom the rebased tree, and re-ran atPERRY_NEXT_ROUTE_VERIFIERS_PER_START=2:exit 0. All five forced cold starts passed
scripts/gc_evacuation_liveness_assert.pythrough the new loop — the subject was live (440 copying minors, ~198k objects copied each), not merely "nothing threw". Log:~/perry-bench.noindex/tmp-8040-knob/rebased-v2.log, per-cold-start logs inlogs-rebased-v2/. Rebase conflict resolution kept #8211's post-fix wording and this PR's$VERIFIERS_PER_START/$TOTAL_BATCHESparameterization; the header now describes #8163 as reopened on the default-GC residual rather than fixed.The default-10 arms above were measured before #8211 landed. #8211 fixed the two forced-arm holders; the default-GC residual it left is now named and has a fix in flight (#8220,
js_headers_for_each's hoisted closure pointer incrates/perry-stdlib/src/fetch/headers.rs:460plus eight sibling sites — 8 from-space faults → 0, 3 failures/300 warm passes → 0). So the expected merge order is: #8220 first, then this PR's default-10 goes green. I did not re-measure the default-10 arms on top of #8220.Not this PR's bug:
