All Tier 1 (CRITICAL) and nearly all Tier 2 (HIGH) gaps closed by
the 27-task production gaps plan. Updated priority summary, test
counts (5,914 methods / ~6,532 parameterized), and overview.
Implements ProcessImplicitRoute and ForwardNewRouteInfoToKnownServers on RouteManager,
and ProcessImplicitGateway on GatewayManager, mirroring Go server/route.go and
server/gateway.go INFO gossip-based peer discovery. Adds ConnectUrls to ServerInfo
and introduces GatewayInfo model. 12 new unit tests in ImplicitDiscoveryTests.
Implements SignalHandler (PosixSignalRegistration for SIGHUP) and
ReloadFromOptionsAsync/ReloadFromOptionsResult on ConfigReloader for
in-memory options comparison without reading a config file.
Ports Go server/signal_unix.go handleSignals and server/reload.go Reload.
Add optional IStreamStore backing to MqttSessionStore and MqttRetainedStore,
enabling session and retained message state to survive process restarts via
JetStream persistence. Includes ConnectAsync/SaveSessionAsync for session
lifecycle, SetRetainedAsync/GetRetainedAsync with cleared-topic tombstone
tracking, and 4 new parity tests covering persist/restart/clear semantics.
Adds StallGate nested class inside NatsClient that blocks producers when
the outbound buffer exceeds 75% of maxPending capacity, modelling Go's
stc channel and stalledRoute handling in server/client.go.
Exposes public RecordFailure/RecordSuccess/GetRetryDelay (no-jitter, deterministic)
on MirrorCoordinator, plus RecordSourceSeq with HasGap/GapStart/GapEnd properties
and SetError/ClearError/HasError/ErrorMessage for error state. Makes IsDuplicate
and RecordMsgId public on SourceCoordinator and adds PruneDedupWindow(DateTimeOffset)
for explicit-cutoff dedup window pruning. Adds 5 unit tests in MirrorSourceRetryTests.
Implements Interest retention policy logic that tracks which consumers
are interested in each message subject and whether they have acknowledged
delivery, retaining messages until all interested consumers have acked.
Go reference: stream.go checkInterestState/noInterest.
Add AssignPinId, ValidatePinId, and UnassignPinId to PriorityGroupManager,
plus CurrentPinId tracking on PriorityGroup, porting Go consumer.go
(setPinnedTimer, assignNewPinId) pin ID semantics. Covered by 7 new tests.
Adds PauseUntilUtc to ConsumerHandle, a new Pause(DateTime) overload,
Resume, IsPaused, and GetPauseUntil to ConsumerManager. A System.Threading.Timer
fires when the deadline passes and calls AutoResume, raising OnAutoResumed so
tests can synchronise via SemaphoreSlim instead of Task.Delay. ConsumerManager
now implements IDisposable to clean up outstanding timers. Timer is also
cancelled on explicit Resume and Delete.
Go reference: consumer.go (pauseConsumer / resumeConsumer / isPaused).
Implements a FIFO pull-request queue (WaitingRequestQueue) with per-request
mutable batch countdown and byte budget tracking, plus RemoveExpired cleanup.
Complements the existing priority-based PullRequestWaitQueue for pull consumer delivery.
Go reference: consumer.go waitQueue / processNextMsgRequest (lines 4276-4450).
Add RedeliveryTracker constructor overload, Register(ulong, string) for
tracker-based ack-wait, ProcessAck(ulong) payload-free overload, GetDeadline,
CanRegister for maxAckPending enforcement, ParseAckType static parser, and
AckType enum. All existing API signatures are preserved; 9 new tests added in
AckProcessorEnhancedTests.cs with no regressions to existing 10 tests.
Add new constructor, Schedule(DateTimeOffset), GetDue(DateTimeOffset),
IncrementDeliveryCount, IsMaxDeliveries(), and GetBackoffDelay() to
RedeliveryTracker without breaking existing API. Uses PriorityQueue<ulong,
DateTimeOffset> for deadline-ordered dispatch mirroring Go consumer.go rdq.
Add ProcessLeaderChange(bool) method and OnLeaderChange event to JetStreamMetaGroup.
Refactor StepDown() to delegate inflight clearing through ProcessLeaderChange,
enabling subscribers to react to leadership transitions.
Go reference: jetstream_cluster.go:7001-7074 processLeaderChange.
Replace the simple string-keyed inflight dictionaries with account-scoped
ConcurrentDictionary<string, Dictionary<string, InflightInfo>> structures.
Adds InflightInfo record with OpsCount for duplicate proposal tracking,
TrackInflight/RemoveInflight/IsInflight methods for streams and consumers,
and ClearAllInflight(). Updates existing Propose* methods to use $G account.
Go reference: jetstream_cluster.go:1193-1278.
Add 5 validated Process* methods to JetStreamMetaGroup for stream and
consumer assignment processing: ProcessStreamAssignment, ProcessUpdateStreamAssignment,
ProcessStreamRemoval, ProcessConsumerAssignment, and ProcessConsumerRemoval.
Each returns a bool indicating success, with validation guards matching
Go reference jetstream_cluster.go:4541-5925. Includes 12 new unit tests.
Implements the background loop (Go: monitorCluster) that reads RaftLogEntry
items from a channel and dispatches assignStream, removeStream, assignConsumer,
removeConsumer, and snapshot operations to JetStreamMetaGroup.
- Add five public mutation helpers to JetStreamMetaGroup (AddStreamAssignment,
RemoveStreamAssignment, AddConsumerAssignment, RemoveConsumerAssignment,
ReplaceAllAssignments) used by the monitor path
- JetStreamClusterMonitor: async loop over ChannelReader<RaftLogEntry>, JSON
dispatch, ILogger injection with NullLogger default, malformed entries logged
and skipped rather than aborting the loop
- WaitForProcessedAsync uses Monitor.PulseAll for race-free test synchronisation
with no Task.Delay — satisfies slopwatch SW003/SW004 rules
- 10 new targeted tests all pass; 1101 cluster regression tests unchanged
Implements binary codec for meta-group snapshots: 2-byte little-endian version
header followed by S2-compressed JSON of the stream assignment map. Adds
[JsonObjectCreationHandling(Populate)] to StreamAssignment.Consumers so the
getter-only dictionary is populated in-place during deserialization. 8 tests
covering round-trip, compression ratio, field fidelity, multi-consumer restore,
version rejection, and truncation guard.
Go reference: jetstream_cluster.go:2075-2145 (encodeMetaSnapshot/decodeMetaSnapshot)
Adds BeginJointConsensus, CommitJointConsensus, and CalculateJointQuorum to
RaftNode per Raft paper Section 4. During a joint configuration transition
quorum requires majority from BOTH Cold and Cnew; CommitJointConsensus
finalizes Cnew as the sole active configuration. The existing single-phase
ProposeAddPeerAsync/ProposeRemovePeerAsync are unchanged. Includes 16 new
tests covering flag behaviour, quorum boundaries, idempotent commit, and
backward-compatibility with the existing membership API.
- SyncAsync: remove redundant FlushAsync, use single Flush(flushToDisk:true)
- ComputeCrc: use incremental Crc32.Append to avoid contiguous buffer heap allocation
- Load: cast pos+length to long to guard against int overflow in bounds check
- AppendAsync: delegate to WriteEntryTo (DRY — eliminates duplicated record-building logic)
- Load: extract ParseEntries static helper to eliminate goto pattern with early returns
- Entries: change return type from IEnumerable to IReadOnlyList for index access and Count property
- RaftNode.PersistAsync: remove redundant term.txt write (meta.json now owns term+votedFor)
- RaftWalTests: tighten ShouldBeGreaterThanOrEqualTo(1) -> ShouldBe(1) in truncation/CRC tests;
use .Count property directly on IReadOnlyList instead of .Count() LINQ extension
Implements a binary write-ahead log (RaftWal) for durable RAFT entry
storage, replacing in-memory-only semantics. The WAL uses a magic header
("NWAL" + version), length-prefixed records with per-record CRC32
integrity checking, and CompactAsync with atomic temp-file rename.
Load() tolerates truncated or corrupt tail records for crash safety.
Also fixes RaftNode to persist and reload TermState.VotedFor via a
meta.json file alongside term.txt, ensuring vote durability across
restarts. Falls back gracefully to legacy term.txt when meta.json is
absent.
6 new tests in RaftWalTests: persist/recover, compact, truncation
tolerance, VotedFor round-trip, empty WAL, and CRC corruption.
All 458 Raft tests pass.
Complete IStreamStore Batch 2 — all remaining interface methods now have
FileStore implementations:
- EncodedStreamState: placeholder returning empty (full codec in Task 9)
- UpdateConfig: no-op placeholder for config hot-reload
- ResetState: no-op (state derived from blocks on construction)
- Delete(bool): now calls Stop() first and matches interface signature
Complete IStreamStore Batch 1 — all core operations now have FileStore
implementations instead of throwing NotSupportedException:
- StoreRawMsg: caller-specified seq/ts for replication/mirroring
- LoadPrevMsg: backward scan for message before given sequence
- Type: returns StorageType.File
- Stop: flush + dispose blocks, reject further writes
14 new tests in FileStoreStreamStoreTests.
Add FlushAllPending() to FileStore — flushes active MsgBlock to disk and
writes a stream.state checkpoint atomically (write-to-temp + rename).
Go ref: filestore.go:5783 (flushPendingWritesUnlocked / writeFullState).
5 new tests in FileStoreCrashRecoveryTests: flush, state file, idempotent,
TTL recovery, truncated block handling.
Add FlushAllPending() to FileStore, fulfilling the IStreamStore interface
contract. The method flushes the active MsgBlock to disk and atomically
writes a stream.state checkpoint using write-to-temp + rename, matching
Go's flushPendingWritesUnlocked / writeFullState pattern.
Add FileStoreCrashRecoveryTests with 5 tests covering:
- FlushAllPending flushes block data to .blk file
- FlushAllPending writes a valid atomic stream.state JSON checkpoint
- FlushAllPending is idempotent (second call overwrites with latest state)
- Recovery prunes messages backdated past the MaxAgeMs cutoff
- Recovery handles a tail-truncated block without throwing
Reference: golang/nats-server/server/filestore.go:5783-5842
Code quality review feedback: Should.Throw<Exception> was too broad,
changed to Should.Throw<InvalidDataException> to match the actual
exception type thrown when AEAD decryption fails with wrong key.
Add FileStoreEncryptionTests covering ChaCha20-Poly1305 and AES-GCM
round-trips and wrong-key rejection for the FSV2 AEAD path. Fix
RestorePayload to wrap CryptographicException from AEAD decryption as
InvalidDataException so RecoverBlocks correctly propagates key-mismatch
failures instead of silently swallowing them.
Drop redundant columns now that test_mappings is the single source of truth:
- go_tests: drop dotnet_test, dotnet_file
- dotnet_tests: drop go_test
- VACUUM to reclaim space
Multi-strategy matching:
- Source comment references (// Go: TestXxx): +1,477 mappings
- In-body Go test name references: +249 mappings
- Name similarity with keyword overlap: +368 mappings
- File-context + lower threshold for parity files: +133 mappings
Final state:
- 4,250 / 5,808 dotnet tests mapped (73.2%), up from 2,485 (42.8%)
- 1,558 remaining are genuinely original .NET tests with no Go equivalent
- 59,516 total test_mappings rows
- Fix dotnet_tests scan to handle [Theory]+[InlineData] patterns (was
extracting "InlineData" as test name instead of actual method)
- Rebuild test_mappings with multi-strategy matching: exact path, basename,
class-level, wildcard prefix (ClassName.Prefix*), (N tests) patterns,
fuzzy word overlap, and 31 hand-mapped renames
- All 2,646 mapped Go tests now have entries in test_mappings (was 177 missing)
- 2,485 dotnet tests linked back to Go tests, 5,808 total
- 57,289 total mapping rows
Rewrote structuregaps.md with function-by-function gap analysis
comparing current .NET implementation against Go reference.
Added design doc for Tier 1+2 gap closure across 4 phases:
FileStore+RAFT → JetStream Cluster → Consumer/Stream → Client/MQTT/Config.
StreamManager.Capture now accounts for full message size (subject +
payload + 16-byte overhead) when checking MaxBytes, matching Go's
memStoreMsgSize. PullConsumerEngine uses stream FirstSeq instead of
hardcoded 1 for DeliverAll after purge. Fix 6 tests with Go parity
assertions and updated MaxBytes values.
Add long_running, real_network, test_project, and failing columns to
dotnet_tests table. Set test_project for all 3,491 rows. Mark 9 known
failing tests. Fix slopwatch hook to use absolute path.
Now that MemStore uses Unix epoch timestamps (13a3f81), restore the
original Go MaxAge values that were previously omitted as workarounds:
- JsCluster2: MaxAgeMs=500 (Go: 500ms)
- JsCluster34: MaxAgeMs=5000 (Go: 5s)
DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks * 100L overflows long (Ticks ~6.38e17, x100 =
6.38e19 > long.MaxValue 9.22e18), producing corrupted timestamps that
cause PruneExpiredMessages to immediately expire all messages when
MaxAgeMs is set. Use Unix epoch offset to match Go's time.Now().UnixNano().
