MsgBlock is the unit of storage in the file store — a single append-only
block file containing sequentially written binary message records. Blocks
are sealed (read-only) when they reach a configurable byte-size limit.
Key features:
- Write: appends MessageRecord-encoded messages with auto-incrementing
sequence numbers and configurable first sequence offset
- Read: positional I/O via RandomAccess.Read for concurrent reader safety
- Delete: soft-delete with on-disk persistence (re-encodes flags byte +
checksum so deletions survive recovery)
- Recovery: rebuilds in-memory index by scanning block file using
MessageRecord.MeasureRecord for record boundary detection
- Thread safety: ReaderWriterLockSlim allows concurrent reads during writes
Also adds MessageRecord.MeasureRecord() — computes a record's byte length
by parsing varint field headers without full decode, needed for sequential
record scanning during block recovery.
Reference: golang/nats-server/server/filestore.go:217-267 (msgBlock struct)
12 tests covering write, read, delete, seal, recovery, concurrency,
and custom sequence offsets.
Add MessageRecord class with Encode/Decode for the binary wire format
used in JetStream file store blocks. Uses varint-encoded lengths,
XxHash64 checksums, and a flags byte for deletion markers.
Go reference: filestore.go:6720-6724, 8180-8250, 8770-8777
13 tests covering round-trip, headers, checksum validation, corruption
detection, varint encoding, deleted flag, empty/large payloads.
Add 60 tests in JsClusterConsumerReplicationTests covering consumer
creation, fetch/delivery, ack tracking, leader failover, state
consistency, and edge cases. Ported from Go jetstream_cluster_2_test.go.
Adds two new test files covering Task 10 of the full Go parity plan:
JsClusterAdvancedTests.cs (27 tests):
- Large 7-node cluster with R5 stream
- Stream with 20+ subjects and wildcard '>' subject
- 1000-message publish to R3 and R1 streams
- Stream state accuracy after 1000 messages
- 10 streams with mixed replica counts
- Create/publish/delete/recreate cycle (3x)
- Consumer on 1000-message stream with batch fetch
- AckAll for all 1000 messages
- Stream info consistency after 50 interleaved ops
- Meta state after creating and deleting 10 streams
- 5 independent consumers with correct pending counts
- Consumer with wildcard filter subject
- Stream update adding subjects after publishes
- Stream purge then republish
- Fetch empty after purge
- Stream delete cascades consumer removal
- Node removal preserves data reads
- Node restart lifecycle markers
- Leader stepdown with monotonic sequence verification
- Stream info after stepdown with 1000 messages
JsClusterLongRunningTests.cs (15 tests, [Trait("Category", "LongRunning")]):
- 5000 messages in R3 stream maintain consistency
- 100 sequential fetches of 50 messages each
- 50 consumers on same stream all see all messages
- 20 streams in 5-node cluster all independent
- Publish-ack-fetch cycle 100 times
- 10 stepdowns during continuous publishing
- Alternating publish and stepdown (20 iterations)
- Create-publish-delete 20 streams sequentially
- Consumer ack tracking after 10 leader failovers
- Fetch with batch=1 iterated 500 times
- Mixed operations across 5 streams
- Rapid meta stepdowns (20) with version verification
- 10000 small messages in R1 stream
- Stream with max_messages=100 enforces limit after 1000 publishes
- Consumer on max-messages stream tracks correct pending
All 42 tests pass (27 advanced + 15 long-running).
Adds 97 tests across two new files covering stream replication semantics
(R1/R3 creation, replica group size, publish preservation, state accuracy,
purge, update, delete, max limits, subjects, wildcards, storage type) and
placement semantics (replica caps at cluster size, various cluster sizes,
concurrent creation, stepdown resilience, long names, re-create after delete).
Adds a unified JetStreamClusterFixture consolidating the capabilities of all 7
per-suite fixtures (ClusterFormationFixture, ClusterStreamFixture, LeaderFailoverFixture, etc.)
into a single reusable helper for Tasks 6-10. Includes new Go-parity helpers
(WaitOnStreamLeaderAsync, WaitOnConsumerLeaderAsync, GetConsumerLeaderId,
StepDownMetaLeader, SimulateNodeRestart, RemoveNode) matching jetstream_helpers_test.go.
27 smoke tests verify all capabilities pass.
Replace Deflate+XOR with IronSnappy S2 block compression and ChaCha20-Poly1305 / AES-256-GCM
AEAD encryption, matching golang/nats-server/server/filestore.go. Introduces FSV2 envelope
format alongside existing FSV1 for backward compatibility. Adds 55 new tests across
S2CodecTests, AeadEncryptorTests, and FileStoreV2Tests covering all 6 cipher×compression
permutations, tamper detection, and legacy format round-trips.
Stream lifecycle, publish/ack, consumer delivery, retention policy,
API endpoints, cluster formation, and leader failover tests ported
from Go nats-server reference. 1006 total tests passing.
