proxy mirror and mirror jobs now take pkg:swift PURLs whose namespace
is the registry scope, such as pkg:swift/apple/swift-nio@2.62.0 for
apple.swift-nio. The source archive is fetched from upstream.swift,
checked against the SHA-256 checksum in the release metadata and cached
under the key the archive route serves. PURLs whose namespace is a
source repository URL don't name a registry identity and are refused.
Unversioned PURLs list releases from upstream.swift.
SwiftPM reads the release list and Package.swift before it downloads
an archive, and the handler passed both through uncached, so a mirrored
release still couldn't be resolved with the upstream down. With
cache_metadata the handler now keeps them in the metadata cache along
with their Link header, which carries release list pages and the
version-specific manifests, and serves them when the upstream fails.
Manifests are keyed by tools version, so the 5.8 of an alternate link
and the 5.8.0 SwiftPM requests share a key. The mirror stores every
release list page and each manifest a release links.
With cooldown on, the RubyGems compact index and versions API, the Hex
package and Hex API entry, and conda's repodata.json were fetched with
plain HTTP requests on every client request: no TTL, no revalidation,
no coalescing and no stale fallback, even with cache_metadata.
Gem and Hex now read both documents through the metadata cache and
filter the cached copies. The filtered result goes through the rewrite
cache and is served with an ETag. When the times document is older than
the index and misses a version, it is fetched again; if that fails the
version is left out. Conda filters a fresh stored repodata.json as it
reads it from storage, uses the metadata cache otherwise, and remembers
the ETag of the filtered copy until a withheld entry leaves cooldown.
* Conan 2 downloads recipe and package files from /v2/conans/.../revisions/{rrev}/files/{file} and .../packages/{id}/revisions/{prev}/files/{file}, but the handler only cached the invalid /v1/files and /v2/files paths, so archives were never stored. This adds the real routes and drops the old ones; manifests and conaninfo.txt stay in the metadata cache.
* Conan 2.25 can also compress archives with xz or zstd (conan_package.txz, conan_package.tzst and so on), so cache those too.
* Store Conan archives under plain name and version, like pkg:conan/zlib@1.3.1, with the revisions and any user/channel in the filename. The old name/version@user/channel with one version per revision never matched a denylist entry or what scanners look up.
TestRelayRoutes fails intermittently on CI with "write: connection reset
by peer" at the upstream handler's final Flush, on /hex/packages/demo and
/gem/info/demo.
Those two routes are the only ones in the table that fan out a second
upstream request: with cooldown enabled, the hex and gem handlers fetch
version timestamps concurrently with the artifact. The test server answers
that sidecar request with the same 64 KiB chunked 502, but the handler
returns as soon as it sees a non-200 and closes the body unread, so the
proxy drops the connection while the test server is still writing to it.
Whether the reset lands before or after the Flush is a scheduling race,
which is why it only surfaces on loaded runners.
The flush error says nothing about the response under test, which is
asserted on the downstream side, so stop reporting it.
