emailUsedByOtherInbounds and emailsUsedByOtherInbounds always queried
through database.GetDB(), yet five callers run them inside a transaction:
both node traffic sync sweeps (setRemoteTrafficLocked), the inbound edit
stats sync (updateClientTraffics) and both email-drop branches of
UpdateInboundClient. Each call needed a second pool connection while the
transaction held row locks on client_traffics/node_client_traffics. On
PostgreSQL, once subscription fetches (UPDATE client_traffics SET
last_sub_fetch) blocked on those locks filled the rest of the 25-connection
pool, the lookup waited forever, the transaction never ended, and the panel
hung until restart.
Both helpers now take the *gorm.DB to query on; transactional callers pass
tx and the rest pass the pool handle they already hold. The new tests cap
the pool at one connection, so any query that escapes the transaction
blocks; each went red before the fix on SQLite and (node sync) on a live
PostgreSQL 16, and passes after.
Closes#6789
Client CRUD latency scaled with the number of client-inbound edges rather
than with the size of the change. On a 5k-client / 8-inbound / ~56k-edge
PostgreSQL panel, creating one client took 60-120s (#6252).
Two independent causes, both confirmed by the reporter's pg_stat_statements
and reproduced locally at their topology.
SyncInbound deleted every client_inbounds row for an inbound and re-inserted
the whole set, so a one-client edit rewrote thousands of unrelated rows. The
dominant caller was not user CRUD: the node traffic poll re-syncs every node
inbound from its snapshot every 5s, so the panel churned the entire
membership table continuously in the background. SyncInbound now reads the
current links and writes only the difference - insert missing, update a
changed flow_override, delete departed. Callers are unchanged, so every
reconciliation path benefits, and the four hot client CRUD paths additionally
pass only the clients they touched via ApplyInboundClientDelta.
The insert needs clause.OnConflict: the unconditional delete it replaces also
serialized concurrent syncs of one inbound, and the node poll commits in its
own transaction outside the serialized writer, where a duplicate key would
abort the whole poll on PostgreSQL.
Identity and membership questions expanded every inbound's settings.clients
JSON - 5.75s per call under the reporter's load. They now read the indexed
clients and client_inbounds tables, which every read path already trusts,
over just the emails being checked. A LOWER(email) expression index keeps
the case-insensitive matching indexed; a struct tag cannot declare one.
Measured on PostgreSQL 17 at 8 inbounds x 6000 clients, rows written to
client_inbounds per operation, before -> after:
create across 8 inbounds 48008 ins / 48000 del -> 8 ins / 0 del
update the client 48008 ins / 48008 del -> 0 ins / 0 del
detach from 4 inbounds 24000 ins / 24004 del -> 0 ins / 4 del
delete the client 24000 ins / 24004 del -> 0 ins / 4 del
Two behavior changes worth naming. An email seen with two different subIds
across two inbounds' JSON used to be locked so that no add could claim it,
including the one with the correct subId; the clients row now adjudicates.
And on an install whose settings JSON holds an email with no matching link,
"is this email on another inbound" now answers no, so deleting it elsewhere
purges its traffic rows; compactOrphans and the startup heal already
converge such drift.
Every added test was verified against a hand-written mutation of this change,
so none of them pass regardless of the fix. One mutation survives on purpose:
swapping OnConflict DoUpdates for DoNothing is only observable when two
transactions race the same row, and a timing-dependent test would be flaky.
Per-node batching of remote pushes and the metadata-only inbounds list from
the same report are deliberately not in this change.
