refactor(core): give an optional subsystem one attachment point - #1329
Conversation
The core carried 314 production cfg sites for three optional subsystems and
nobody had measured what any of them cost. agent_docs/subsystem_boundary.md now
holds the rule that decides whether a subsystem can leave the core, the
classified inventory behind it, and the numbers: turning the smallest cuttable
subsystem off is worth 48.6 KiB of stripped binary, and the plugin host costs
150.6 KiB enabled with no plugin installed, which is the measurement its own
review checklist asks for and that did not exist anywhere.
The same VoIP subsystem is 47 cfg for 46k lines in wacore, where it is one gated
mod, and 171 for a third of that here, where it is interleaved with core code.
The difference is not the subsystem, it is whether it owns its own files. So the
core gets one attachment table instead of a field and a dispatch arm per
subsystem: a subsystem parks its per-client state there and lists the
notification types it models, and the core names it in exactly two places, its
mod declaration and its table entry. tests/subsystem_boundary.rs fails on a
third, because without a guard the inventory rots on the next PR.
passkey is the vertical slice, chosen because it is the smallest subsystem with
the whole shape (two Client fields, a construction site, two dispatch arms) and
has no involvement in the hot path, so the seam can be judged on its own. It
becomes an opt-in feature, off by default; without it a passkey_prologue_request
reaches the consumer as Event::Notification, which is already what this client
does with a notification type it does not model. Its Event variants stay
compiled unconditionally: EventKind discriminants are EventInterest bit indices
consumers persist, so a cut subsystem never removes one.
voip-runtime, plugins and client-lifecycle are untouched. The rule classifies
the first as coupled (it binds into the ack fast path, and the core reads its
registry) and the other two as the seam rather than passengers.
BREAKING CHANGE: the passkey linking flow is now behind the `passkey` feature.
Migration: whatsapp-rust = { version = "0.7", features = ["passkey"] }.

Every optional feature had its own hardcoded test step, so a feature added tomorrow was tested by nobody until someone remembered to add a seventh. Six of those steps collapse into one loop over `scripts/ci/test_features.sh`, which asks cargo metadata for the package's features and drops only the ones that cannot share a build, each with the reason it cannot. Coverage goes up rather than down: 2135 tests for whatsapp-rust against 1801 before, 1993 for wacore against 1469, because `plugins`, `metrics`, `client-lifecycle`, `debug-snapshots` and `voip-encoded` were in no test job at all. `tracing-pii` can now join that run: the one assertion it invalidates, that the raw number never reaches a span field, is gated the same way `observe_redacts_phone_but_not_lid_or_group` already gates its own. The boundary document loses its `file:line` anchors. Half of them were already wrong, shifted by the commit that introduced them, which is the argument against line numbers in a document nobody recompiles. Files and symbols instead. Adds the guard for the one gap in the seam: the attachment table is consulted only where the core models nothing itself, so a core arm added later for a claimed notification type would take the stanza and the subsystem would stop seeing it without anything failing.

Suppressing the raw `Event::Notification` proved nothing: a core match arm that took the stanza suppresses it exactly the same way, so the guard could not fail on the regression it was written for. A test-only counter on the attachment table separates the two, and adding a core arm for a claimed type now fails it. The fixture's JID moves to the repository's fictional NANP form.
`IncomingCall::media` was a public field that exists only under `voip`, so the one public payload had two shapes depending on who compiled it: the exact thing the cut rule's contract test forbids, and the only violation of it in the tree. It becomes a `pub(crate)` field behind a gated accessor, the same shape `ringing_generation` beside it already uses. The struct's public fields are now identical either way; only a method comes and goes, which no external construction, match or layout depends on. Making it unconditional was the alternative and costs more than it fixes: the type carries a parsed `RelayData` from `crate::voip`, so an always-present field would link the relay parser into builds that asked for no VoIP at all.

VoIP held five `Client` fields, each with its own gate, plus the branches that
built them, tore them down, bound its ack and reported its memory. That is 29
production gates in files VoIP does not own, against 142 in the three it does.
The attachment table grows three optional hooks (connection cleanup, response
observed, retained collections), VoIP fills them, and its five fields become one
`VoipState` parked in the table. Core gates for VoIP go 29 -> 5 and `Client`
fields 5 -> 0. Two of the five that remain are the budget the boundary document
allows any subsystem: the `mod` declaration and the table entry.
The other three stay on purpose. `would_emit_pkmsg`, `register_ack_waiter` and
`should_issue_tc_token` are gated only because VoIP is their sole caller and an
ordinary build would carry them dead. Moving them into the VoIP module would
zero the counter by separating each from the Signal-session, waiter and
tc-token code it belongs with, which is worse code for a better number.
`MemoryReport` loses its three gated VoIP fields for one `subsystems` list, so
the report has one shape whatever was compiled, and gains `subsystem()` to read
one entry by the name it prints.
BREAKING CHANGE: `MemoryReport::{pending_call_link_updates, active_calls,
pending_outgoing_calls}` are gone. Migration: `report.subsystem("voip active_calls:")`
and its siblings, or read `report.subsystems` directly.

…ere to stop The inventory now reflects what the migration left: VoIP keeps three gates, all of them the same shape, and the row says why moving those helpers under the VoIP module would be worse code for a better number. `pair_code` turns out not to be a candidate at all. `pair-success` takes its lock on the shared pairing path, QR included, so that a pair-code flow being retired cannot re-mint the ADV secret between verification and completion. Cutting it would either drop that interlock or leave the core reaching into an optional subsystem, and which of those is acceptable is a protocol question. Adds the plugin host's runtime cost with no plugin installed, the half of `plugin_architecture.md`'s checklist that had no number, as a command and a table rather than a CI gate: CodSpeed keys a series by benchmark name and cannot hold two configurations of the same benchmark. `register_call_link_session` binds the subsystem lookup once instead of thirteen times.

… opened The attachment table stores state as `Arc<dyn Any>`, so `every_growable_client_field_reaches_the_memory_report` bottoms out at the erased pointer and cannot see `VoipState`'s map or registry. Moving a growable field into a subsystem would have left that guard green, undoing exactly what it is for. A sibling check walks the concrete subsystem states against their `memory` hook; adding an unreported `HashMap` to `VoipState` fails it. `tracing-pii` leaves the shared feature run. It compiles out the assertion that `record_identity_on_span` redacts, and with the dedicated `--features tracing` step gone the shared run was the only job left executing it, so enabling both meant nothing verified redaction at all. The dispatch counter becomes thread-local. As a process-global it could be satisfied by a concurrent test dispatching the same type, which is precisely the shadowing the counter exists to catch. The size table separates the two questions it was conflating: what this batch changed against the same build before it, and what a subsystem costs to turn on against the default build beside it.
Dismissed because a newer commit was pushed; Greptile will re-review the current head.
The table said before/after without saying before what. Both rows are now labelled as main against the branch, measured from the same working tree, which is also how they were taken: the CI gate's own baseline artifact is 26 merges stale, so the only trustworthy comparison is one made locally against the commit the branch actually sits on.
Dismissed because a newer commit was pushed; Greptile will re-review the current head.
`thread_local!` is a macro invocation, so rustdoc generates nothing for it and `-D warnings` turns the `///` above it into an error. Only the all-features job compiles the test target under that flag, which is why it survived the local runs.
Dismissed because a newer commit was pushed; Greptile will re-review the current head.
The seam stored each subsystem's state as `Arc<dyn Any>` and found it again by
scanning and downcasting, which left three things the compiler could have
decided as runtime questions instead: reaching the state back (an `expect` on
the VoIP side, an unreachable `Err` arm on the passkey side), two subsystems
claiming one notification type (a test), and a hook a subsystem does not fill
(a checked `Option<fn>` on every call).
A subsystem now implements one trait that carries its state as an associated
type, and a `subsystems!` list generates the core's side: a struct holding each
attached state under its real type, an `Attached` impl per attached subsystem,
and the four dispatchers. `client.subsystem::<Voip>()` returns `&VoipState`
with no `Option` and no panic, because `Attached` is implemented only for a
subsystem this build carries, so naming a detached one does not compile. A
colliding claim now fails a `const` assertion rather than a test, and an
unfilled hook is a defaulted method that costs no branch.
Erasure was not free. Dropping it takes 11.2 KiB off the `voip` build and 0.4
KiB off the default one, measured back to back on one toolchain: the `Arc` per
subsystem, its vtables, the boxed futures the hook signatures forced and the
scan that found the state again were all real bytes. The type-safe version is
the smaller one.
BREAKING: `MemoryReport::subsystems` carries `SubsystemMemory` values, whose
subsystem and collection are separate fields rather than one fused display
string. Migration: `report.subsystem("voip active_calls:")` becomes
`report.subsystem("voip", "active_calls")`.
Dismissed because a newer commit was pushed; Greptile will re-review the current head.
Review follow-ups, each verified rather than assumed. The memory report went the wrong way. This batch spent 11 KiB proving typed state beats erased state inside the core, then asked callers to look a figure up with two string literals, where a typo is a silent `None`. A subsystem now exports its collections as `SubsystemCollection` constants and its hook names them from the same constants, so `report.subsystem(voip::collections:: ACTIVE_CALLS)` is checked at compile time and the hook cannot drift from the key. `IncomingCall::set_media` was `pub` + `#[doc(hidden)]`, copied from the sibling setters. Those have callers in `whatsapp-rust`; this one has a single caller in `wacore` itself, so it is `pub(crate) fn with_media` now, consuming rather than `&mut`, which also drops the `let mut call` and the `expect(unused_mut)` at the one construction site. Test 4 claimed a gated accessor is not a second shape. It is: the accessor is gated too. What the accessor actually buys is that the two shapes differ in a method rather than a field, so code that builds, matches or destructures the payload compiles either way. The rule now says that, so the next batch does not read it as "gated accessor passes". The boundary guard counted lines without reading them, so one of the three allowed lines could be spent on a `pub use crate::<name>::Thing` and keep the count. It now requires each allowed line to be a feature gate, the `mod` declaration, or the `subsystems!` entry. Writing that check surfaced a second hole: a one-line `#[cfg(...)] pub use crate::x::Thing;` opens like a gate, so the gate arm requires the line to end as an attribute. Both directions are unit tested. `#![allow(dead_code)]` covered a whole new module to serve exactly three items, which is where real dead code hides. Measured: only the two traits and the lookup are ever dead, and only with no subsystem attached, so each carries its own `allow` with a reason and the field's blanket one turned out to be unnecessary. `expect` would be better and does not fit here: these are live the moment one subsystem is attached, so the expectation would go unfulfilled in every other build. Two docs said the same thing twice, appended instead of replaced, leaving one comment with two openings. The rationale belongs in the boundary document, which already carries it, so the duplicates are gone. `pending_call_link_join_lane` is locked through `&Client` and never shared, so it does not need an `Arc`. The striped answer lanes next to it do: they hand out an owned guard through `lock_arc`, which is what the `Arc` is for. No hook was added, and the document now says what a fifth one costs: two subsystems asking for the same point, and a measured floor for the build that does not fill it.

…e bench Two stale things in the boundary document. The `warm_group_send` table was measured on a different machine than the tree it now describes, and its absolute figures move with the box, so it silently invited a comparison it cannot support: read against the older numbers it looks like a 17% regression that is only a different runner. Re-measured both columns in one session, and the text now says that only the two columns may be compared and that CodSpeed is the instrument for the across-time question. The document never answered whether the VoIP core is runtime-free, which is why the question keeps coming back. It is, and it predates this work: `wacore::voip` is sans-IO, its feature pulls only aes-gcm and zerocopy, tokio appears in wacore under dev-dependencies alone, every tokio or webrtc mention under `wacore/src/voip/` is a doc comment, the executor is the `wacore::runtime::Runtime` trait and the socket is the `RelayTransport` seam, and CI builds the whole thing for wasm32 on every PR. What `voip-runtime` gates here is the native media plane instead, which is runtime-bound by construction.

The batch took VoIP from 29 gates outside its own files to 5 and nothing held that. `CUTTABLE` covers `passkey` alone, so the largest number here was protected only by review, which is what let the original 314 accumulate in the first place. A second, weaker guard caps the count for a subsystem that cannot be cut: 9 for `voip-runtime` outside `src/voip/`, `src/client/voip.rs` and `src/handlers/call.rs`, and raising it is meant to be a decision with a line in the document behind it. Verified by putting a `voip-runtime` field back on `Client`: the count goes to 10 and the test names the line. Production and test gates are counted together. Telling them apart needs a parser this guard does not have, and a gate that appears is worth a look either way; the comment records that 5 of the 9 are production. Two documentation fixes, both about the document drifting from what it describes. The guard section still described counting mentions, not the shape check that replaced it, because an earlier edit script asserted on its second replacement and aborted before writing the first. It now describes both guards and records the hole that is left: only lines containing the subsystem's name are examined, so an item gated by a `cfg` whose own line never says the name is invisible. That is narrow, the gate line is still counted, and it costs more code to close than it saves. The cost section leaned on stripped file size to argue a change was free. File size is quantized by section alignment, so an unchanged byte count is not evidence of unchanged codegen; `.text` and llvm-lines are, and the text now says so and points at `binary_size_ci.md` for it.

The cap matched the literal `cfg(feature = "voip-runtime")`, so a gate written as `all(feature = "voip-runtime", ...)` did not count. Two things made that worse than a hypothetical. The budget sits at exactly the current number by design, so the next gate fails the test, and the cheapest way out of that failure is to write the new gate as `all(...)`. And rustfmt already splits such a gate across lines and leaves `feature = "voip-runtime"` on one of its own, which the old spelling would not have matched in any form, single line or not. `src/voip/mod.rs` has one today; it sits inside the files VoIP owns, so the count was right, but the idiom is already local. Matching the `feature = "..."` term instead closes it, and picks up `not(feature = "...")` too, which is still core code conditioned on the subsystem. The predicate is its own function with tests on both sides, the same treatment `is_declaration` got for the equivalent escape in the cuttable guard. Verified end to end: a composite gate on a `Client` field, written the way rustfmt leaves it, now takes the count to 10 and the test names the line.

Summary
The core carried 314 production
#[cfg(feature = ...)]sites for three optional subsystems and nobody had ever measured what any of them cost, so I measured first and designed second.agent_docs/subsystem_boundary.mdnow holds a four-test cut rule for whether a subsystem can stop being part of the core, the classified inventory behind it, and the numbers. The core gets one seam: a subsystem implements a trait carrying its per-client state as an associated type and fills the hooks it needs, instead of adding aClientfield and a branch per subsystem.passkeyis cut through it and becomes opt-in;voip-runtimeis disciplined through it and drops from 29 core gates and 5Clientfields to 5 gates and none.Audit
Production
cfgonly; a gate inside amod testsblock is scaffolding, not coupling.Clientfieldsvoip-runtimepluginsclient-lifecyclepasskeyThe comparison that decided the design: the same VoIP subsystem is 47 gates for 46k lines in
wacore, where it is one gatedmod. The difference between 47 and 171 is not the subsystem, it is whether the subsystem owns its own files.Three of the four findings in the brief hold; one needs correcting.
voip-runtimeties the subsystem to a runtime. True of the shell and not of the subsystem, and the runtime-free core a crate split was supposed to unlock already exists.wacore::voipis sans-IO: its feature is["dep:aes-gcm", "dep:zerocopy"],tokioappears in wacore under[dev-dependencies]only, and every mention of tokio or webrtc underwacore/src/voip/is a doc comment (zero in code). The executor is thewacore::runtime::Runtimetrait,Sendon native and non-Sendon wasm; the socket is theRelayTransportseam. CI builds it forwasm32-unknown-unknownwith--no-default-features --features "voip,js"on every PR, which is what keeps it true. Whatvoip-runtimegates here is the native media plane, webrtc-rs DTLS/SCTP plus the libopus FFI, which is runtime-bound by construction and has acompile_error!sending wasm32 and espidf atwacore/voipinstead. That is why the crate-split axis is rejected below, and it is now recorded in the boundary document rather than only here.crate::crypto,crate::sync_markerandcrate::runtime::{Runtime, AbortHandle}.waprotoandwacore_libsignalare indeed zero (the twowaprotohits are comments).with_plugincall in the workspace isplugins/metrics, the conformance example.passkeywas already halfway there with the same shape at a thirtieth of the size.One more the brief flagged as a defect that is not one:
src/handlers/mod.rsdeclarespub mod call;without a gate on purpose. A build withoutvoip-runtimestill parses<call>stanzas and emitsIncomingCall,MissedCallandCallEndedElsewhere, andreject/terminatestill work. The optional half is the media runtime, not call signaling.The seam
A subsystem implements one trait, and the core names it once:
That list generates the core's whole side: a
Subsystemsstruct holding each attached subsystem'sStateunder its real type, anAttachedimpl per attached subsystem, and the four dispatchers.Clientgains one field, not one per subsystem, and with nothing attached the struct has no fields and every generated loop folds away.The implementing type is the whole handle, so its state, its claims and its hooks cannot drift apart the way a record of function pointers lets them. Three things that used to be runtime questions are decided by the compiler:
client.subsystem::<Voip>()returns&VoipState. NoAny, no downcast, noOption:Attachedis implemented only for a subsystem this build carries, so naming a detached one does not compile. That replaced anexpecton the VoIP side and an unreachableErrarm on the passkey side, which in turn deleted amatchinset_passkey_authenticatorwhose error branch could never run.CLAIMSis aconst, so aconstassertion rejects the build. Verified by making VoIP claimcrsc_continuation:error[E0080]: evaluation panicked: two subsystems claim the same notification type.Nonein a table, so it costs no branch instead of a checked one.memorytakes&Self::Staterather than the client, so the report cannot quietly become a second way for a subsystem to read the core, which is test 2 of the cut rule enforced by a signature. The report does not undo that with strings either: a subsystem exports its collections asSubsystemCollectionconstants and its hook names them from those same constants, soreport.subsystem(voip::collections::ACTIVE_CALLS)is compile-checked and a typo cannot become a silentNone.Four hooks is not a budget, it is what two subsystems happened to need, and the obvious way this design rots is a defaulted method per subsystem until the trait is a god object.
agent_docs/subsystem_boundary.mdnow sets the bar for a fifth: two subsystems asking for the same point, and a measured floor for the build that does not fill it.Changes
src/client/subsystem.rs(new): the seam above. One trait, onesubsystems!list, oneconstassertion.Clientgains one field and loses seven.passkey's two and VoIP's five become typed state insidesubsystems.tests/subsystem_boundary.rs(new): two guards, one per verdict. For a cuttable subsystem, the core may not name it outside itsmoddeclaration and its list entry, and each allowed line must be one of those shapes rather than merely be under budget, because otherwise one of them can be spent on apub use crate::<name>::Thing. For a disciplined one, the gate count is capped: VoIP may keep 9 outside the files it owns, which is what stops the 29-to-5 result being spent back a field at a time. Both verified negatively.a_claimed_notification_type_is_not_shadowed_by_a_core_armcatches the one gap the seam has: it is consulted only for types the core does not model, so a core arm added later would take the stanza silently. A thread-local counter separates "the subsystem handled it" from "a core arm did"; adding such an arm fails the test, verified.every_growable_subsystem_field_reaches_the_memory_report(new). TheClientwalk stops one level in, atSubsystemsitself, so a growable field added to a subsystem's state would leave the report unnoticed. Verified negatively too.cargo metadatainstead of one hardcoded step per feature. Six steps collapse into one loop, and coverage rises rather than falls: 2138 tests forwhatsapp-rustagainst 1801, 1992 forwacoreagainst 1469, becauseplugins,metrics,client-lifecycle,debug-snapshotsandvoip-encodedwere in no test job at all.scripts/ci/test_features.shcarries the exclusions and the reason each cannot share a build.passkeyis an opt-in feature, off by default. Migration:features = ["passkey"]. Without itwhatsapp_rust::passkeydoes not exist and apasskey_prologue_requestreaches the consumer asEvent::Notification, which is already what this client does with a type it does not model. This is the one change here that alters what a default build does, not just how it is laid out; flagged as such and kept deliberately.IncomingCall::mediais a gated accessor, not a public field. Migration:call.mediabecomescall.media(). The gate does not disappear (the accessor is gated too); what changes is that the two shapes differ in a method rather than a field, so code that builds, matches or destructures the payload compiles either way and only code that asks for the optional half stops. Unconditional was the alternative and costs more than it fixes: the type carries a parsedRelayData, so an always-present field would link the relay parser into builds that asked for no VoIP.MemoryReport's three gated VoIP fields become onesubsystemslist ofSubsystemMemory. Migration:report.subsystem(voip::collections::ACTIVE_CALLS), or readreport.subsystems. Same reason asmedia: the report had two shapes.Cost
Stripped
demo, release profile, the buildbinary_size_ci.mdgates on. Each row measured onmainand on the branch from one working tree, so no other commit can drift into the delta.mainhere ise0ea6dd, the base this branch was cut from; main moves, these two columns do not.voipThe
voiprow is the one to read twice. Moving fiveClientfields and their construction and teardown branches onto the seam made the VoIP build 53 KiB smaller, so attaching through it cost that subsystem nothing.11.2 KiB of that came from making the seam static rather than erased. This batch was implemented twice on purpose, first with
Arc<dyn Any>+ downcast and then with state typed by associated type, and both were built to compare:voipAn
Arc<dyn Any>per subsystem, the vtables behind it, the boxed futures the hook signatures forced and the scan that found the state again were all real bytes. Storing each state under its own type spends none of them, so the type-safe version is also the smaller one.The three stripped figures above were re-measured at this branch's head and came back unchanged, which is worth less than it looks: file size is quantized by section alignment, so an unchanged byte count is not evidence that the later commits changed no codegen. The sensitive measure says they did, slightly:
whatsapp-rustllvm-lines moved from -10,521 to -10,528 across them, against the same baseline. That is the honest shape of it, and it is why the claim here rests on llvm-lines rather than on the size ofdemo.The
Binary Sizegate agrees, and its stripped figure is deliberately not quoted: it measures the branch merged with current main, so it re-reads on every main push (it has said -52.7 KiB and -48.8 KiB on the same tree, against two different baselines). Read it from the gate's own comment. The two figures in it that do not move with the baseline arewhatsapp-rustllvm-lines -10,528 (-1.32%) and.textabout -44.8 KiB.What a subsystem costs to turn on, each against the default build beside it:

All three columns are from one session on one machine, which is the only way they may be compared:passkeyplugins, no plugin installedNo column is consistently fastest and the whole spread is 3.9%, which is what a null check on an
Option<Arc<PluginHost>>and one extraClientfield should read as. These absolutes move with the box, so they are worth nothing against a run from another machine, and this table deliberately makes no before/after claim. CodSpeed is the instrument for that, it is instruction-counted rather than wall-clock, and it is green on this head.Core footprint: VoIP gates outside its own files 29 → 5,

Arc<dyn Any>state, resolved by downcast. What this PR shipped first. It works, but it puts anexpector anOptionat every state lookup, hides the state from the report-coverage walk, and costs 11.2 KiB on thevoipbuild. An associated type gives the same decoupling with none of that.bondependency, and its stanza seam is pre-ack:plugin_architecture.mdis explicit that a claim is final and owes the ack itself. Routing an in-tree subsystem through it would change dispatch order to reuse a host that would then be a hard dependency of the subsystem.Boxper subsystem, and it does not remove themoddeclaration anyway. The trait this PR uses is neverdyn: every call names a concrete impl, so the hooks inline and auto traits still flow.inventory/linkme). Would remove the core's last gate for the price of a new dependency. The guard test makes "one gate" enforceable without it.would_emit_pkmsg,register_ack_waiterandshould_issue_tc_tokenare gated only because VoIP is their sole caller. Moving them undersrc/voip/would pass the rule's test 3 by separating each from the Signal-session, response-waiter and tc-token code it belongs with: worse code for a better number.Arcing VoIP's striped answer lanes.

Not a candidate.pair-successtakes its lock on the shared pairing path, QR included, so a pair-code flow being retired cannot re-mint the ADV secret between verification and completion.

Every count below was re-run on the current head.
Each guard was also checked negatively, since a guard that cannot fail is not one: a colliding claim fails the build, an unreported growable field in
