The channel server had several concurrency issues found by the race
detector during isolation testing:
- acceptClients could send on a closed acceptConns channel during
shutdown, causing a panic. Replace close(acceptConns) with a done
channel and select-based shutdown signaling in both acceptClients
and manageSessions.
- invalidateSessions read isShuttingDown and iterated sessions without
holding the lock. Rewrite with ticker + done channel select and
snapshot sessions under lock before processing timeouts.
- sendLoop/recvLoop accessed global _config.ErupeConfig.LoopDelay
which races with tests modifying the global. Use the per-server
erupeConfig instead.
- logoutPlayer panicked on DB errors and crashed on nil DB (no-db
test scenarios). Guard with nil check and log errors instead.
- Shutdown was not idempotent, double-calling caused double-close
panic on done channel.
Add 5 channel isolation tests verifying independent shutdown,
listener failure, session panic recovery, cross-channel registry
after shutdown, and stage isolation.
Enable multiple Erupe instances to share a single PostgreSQL database
without destroying each other's state, fix existing data races in
cross-channel access, and lay groundwork for future distributed
channel server deployments.
Phase 1 — DB safety:
- Scope DELETE FROM servers/sign_sessions to this instance's server IDs
- Fix ci++ bug where failed channel start shifted subsequent IDs
Phase 2 — Fix data races in cross-channel access:
- Lock sessions map in FindSessionByCharID and DisconnectUser
- Lock stagesLock in handleMsgSysLockGlobalSema
- Snapshot sessions/stages under lock in TransitMessage types 1-4
- Lock channel when finding mail notification targets
Phase 3 — ChannelRegistry interface:
- Define ChannelRegistry interface with 7 cross-channel operations
- Implement LocalChannelRegistry with proper locking
- Add SessionSnapshot/StageSnapshot immutable copy types
- Delegate WorldcastMHF, FindSessionByCharID, DisconnectUser to Registry
- Migrate LockGlobalSema and guild mail handlers to use Registry
- Add comprehensive tests including concurrent access
Phase 4 — Per-channel enable/disable:
- Add Enabled *bool to EntranceChannelInfo (nil defaults to true)
- Skip disabled channels in startup loop, preserving ID stability
- Add IsEnabled() helper with backward-compatible default
- Update config.example.json with Enabled field
