fix(props): revive two dead A/B gates, and derive w:g2 addressing from the IR - #1311
Merged
Conversation
`apply_props` keeps only codes in the interest set, so a prop read without being watched never sees the server's value: it returns the registry default now and on every future connect, with nothing logged. Both of these default to false, so both gated paths were unreachable in production. - enable_spam_report_iq_with_privacy_token (4991), read in spam_report: the report never carried the reported contact's tctoken, so a report about a privacy-restricted account was rejected. - profile_scraping_privacy_token_in_about_usync (20798), read in the contacts usync: per-user tctokens were never attached, so the status of a privacy-restricted contact came back empty. This is the third time a shipped gate has been dead this way, after receipt_mode_bitmask_enabled, so the fix is two guards rather than two list entries. `is_enabled` and `get_int` now debug_assert that the prop is watched -- they are the accessors that substitute a default, while `get` returns Option and tells the caller. And because a gate is usually added precisely because its path is hard to reach, a test scans src/ for prop constants and checks each against WATCHED, which catches the mismatch without the path having to run. Verified the scan fails on the pre-fix tree, naming both props and their call sites.
The group addressing audit was done by hand and left behind a test whose expectations were hand-written, with a doc admitting it was a regression lock rather than a derivation because the IR was not available at test time. It is available at generation time, and the codegen was not reading the IQ index at all. The emitter now binds requests by (module, exported function) and emits one constant per bound request, so the test checks our specs against a value upstream owns. When WhatsApp moves a request between g.us and the group JID, the next sync flips the constant and the test fails, instead of the change surfacing as a request the server never answers -- the whole failure mode here is silent, since a misaddressed stanza is well-formed and simply goes unanswered. Keyed by module and function together, and ambiguity is fatal, because resetGroupInviteCode appears twice in WAWebGroupInviteJob resolving to different targets. That one stays hand-asserted with the reason recorded next to it; binding either overload would pin a coin flip. Scoped to w:g2 deliberately: every entry in every other namespace resolves to s.whatsapp.net, bar four newsletter builders whatspec cannot resolve, so a constant elsewhere would restate what the namespace already guarantees. Twelve requests bound, up from the nine the hand-written test covered. The lock gains the iq/index.json digest at the rev it already pins.

Review caught two gaps.
The scan looked for an identifier following `web::`, so a grouped
`use ...::web::{FOO}` left the call site saying only `FOO` and the read
went unseen. Matching bare names against the registry instead is worse:
it flags `GROUP_CALL_MAX_PARTICIPANTS`, a usize derived from a flag, and
the `PLACEHOLDER_MESSAGE_RESEND` proto enum variant, neither of which
reads anything. So the key is now the argument to a cache accessor,
reduced to its last path segment -- the thing that actually consults the
cache, which a qualified path and a bare name both reach. Both forms are
covered by tests, decoys included.
`wacore/src/iq/targets.rs` was missing from the offline stamp check in
committed_artifacts.rs, which is the only thing that notices an artifact
left over from another build when `--check` cannot reach the network.
That list is repeated from the codegen's `build()` because it lives in a
binary crate an integration test cannot import; the reason is now written
down next to it.

Two shipped feature gates were dead in production, and the follow-up to #1310's hand audit. Related by theme: both are failures with no symptom, and both are now guarded by something mechanical rather than by remembering.
1. Two A/B gates could never turn on
AbPropsCache::apply_propskeeps only codes in its interest set, seeded fromiq::props::WATCHED, and discards everything else during parsing. So a prop read without being watched is not a prop that reads stale — its server value was thrown away, and the read returns the registry default now and on every future connect. Nothing errors, nothing logs.Two were in that state, both defaulting to
false, so both gated paths were unreachable no matter what the server sent:enable_spam_report_iq_with_privacy_token(4991)src/spam_report.rsprofile_scraping_privacy_token_in_about_usync(20798)src/features/contacts.rsBoth mirror WA Web (
OutSpamTCTokenMixin,USyncStatusProtocol.getUserElement), and in both cases the code that reads the flag is correct — what was missing sits in another file.I checked the other direction too: every entry currently in
WATCHEDis genuinely read, so there is no dead weight to trim.2. Two guards, because this is the third time
receipt_mode_bitmask_enabledwas the same bug in #1308. A third occurrence is not a case for two more list entries.At read time.
is_enabledandget_intnowdebug_assertthat the prop is watched. They are the accessors that silently substitute a default;getreturnsOptionand tells the caller the value is absent, so it is left alone.At test time. The assert only fires if something exercises the gated path, and a gate usually exists because the path is hard to reach — neither of these two is covered by any test. So
tests/ab_prop_watch_coverage.rsscanssrc/and checks each flag read againstWATCHED, catching the mismatch without the path having to run. The scan is textual on purpose: the failure being guarded is a name appearing in one file and not another, which is exactly what text sees.What it keys on is the read — the argument to a cache accessor, reduced to its last path segment — rather than the flag's name. Review surfaced why that matters in both directions. Looking for a
web::prefix is too tight: a groupeduse ...::web::{FOO}leaves the call site saying onlyFOO. Matching registry names is too loose: it flagsGROUP_CALL_MAX_PARTICIPANTS(ausizederived from a flag once) and thePLACEHOLDER_MESSAGE_RESENDproto enum variant, neither of which reads anything. The accessor argument is neither, and both forms are covered by tests, decoys included.Verified against the pre-fix tree, where it fails with:
One residual limit, stated in the module doc: a flag bound to a differently-named local constant first would still escape the scan. Nothing does that today, and the runtime
debug_assertcovers it if anything ever does.3.
w:g2addressing now comes from the IQ index#1310 audited group IQ targets by hand and left a test whose expectations were hand-written, with a doc conceding it was a regression lock rather than a derivation "because the IR is not available at test time". It is available at generation time — and the codegen was not reading the IQ index at all.
The same failure mode as the props above, in a different place: a
w:g2request sent tog.uswhen the server wants the group JID is a well-formed stanza that is simply never answered. No error, no nack, just a caller that waits out its timeout. Nothing in the shape of the stanza says which of the two it should be.So a new emitter binds requests by
(module, exportedFunction)and emits one constant each:The test checks our specs against those, so a request upstream moves between targets flips the constant on the next sync and fails the build. Twelve requests bound, up from the nine the hand-written test covered. I confirmed the test is not vacuous by flipping
LEAVE_GROUPand watching it fail.Two decisions worth stating
Ambiguity is fatal, and not hypothetically.
resetGroupInviteCodeappears twice inWAWebGroupInviteJob, once resolving togroup_jidand once tog.us— the trap I hit in #1310. Keying by module and function still does not disambiguate it, so the emitter refuses it, andGetGroupInviteLinkIqstays hand-asserted with the reason recorded beside it. Binding either overload would pin a coin flip.w:g2only. I checked every other namespace: all resolve tos.whatsapp.net, except fournewsletterbuilders whatspec cannot resolve at all. A constant elsewhere would either restate what the namespace already guarantees or pin a target nobody read.The lock gains the
iq/index.jsondigest at the commit it already pins; no re-pin, no version change.targets.rsis also added to the offline stamp check incommitted_artifacts.rs, which is what notices an artifact left over from another build when--checkcannot reach the network.Validation
The workspace commands exclude
whatsapp-rust-voip-cli, whosealsa-sysbuild script has no system dependency here.--skip-proto-descbecause this container has noprotoc; the.protois untouched.Semver Checks is red, and I read the log rather than assuming: all six findings are in
waproto—message_keyonEncryptMessageOutputand itsView/OwnedViewtwins,a_i_rich_response_content_itemonAIRichResponseContentItemMetadata, and theMESSAGE_KEYconst intags.rs. They are pre-existing drift from an earlier proto regeneration, identical to the findings on #1308 and #1310; the run fails onwaprotoand exits before reachingwacore. Nothing this PR touches appears. (An earlier draft of this section guessed that the newwacore::iq::targetsmodule would contribute — it does not, since adding a module is not a breaking change.)
