feat: upgrade @ladybugdb/core to 0.15.2 and remove segfault workarounds#374
Conversation
The upstream fix (ladybug-nodejs#1) resolves the child QueryResult lifetime segfault, making .close() safe on all platforms. This removes 6 workaround sites: - Remove `dangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrors` from vitest config - Remove platform-conditional .close() guards in global-setup and test helper - Delete test/setup.ts (process._getActiveHandles unref hack) - Replace no-op cleanup in test-indexed-db.ts with real adapter close - Fix pool adapter closeOne() to properly close connections with shared Database refcount guard and orphaned connection handling in checkin() - Update segfault-related comments across the codebase Also bumps @ladybugdb/wasm-core to ^0.15.2 in gitnexus-web for consistency.

The N-API destructor ordering crash during worker fork exit on macOS is independent of the QueryResult lifetime fix in 0.15.2. Tests pass, but the exit triggers a crash. Keep the flag with an updated comment explaining the actual cause. Can be removed once LadybugDB fixes all destructor ordering issues upstream.

Code Review
Overall: Solid upgrade that properly addresses the N-API segfault workarounds. The move from "let the OS reclaim on exit" to explicit .close() calls is a meaningful reliability improvement.
Key Changes Reviewed
Pool connection lifecycle (lbug-adapter.ts)
- The new
closedflag onPoolEntryis the right pattern. Connections checked out during eviction get closed oncheckin()instead of being silently orphaned. This fixes a real resource leak. closeOne()now properly closes available connections before decrementing the shared DB refcount. The ordering is correct: close connections first, then conditionally close the DB when refCount hits 0.
Test cleanup
- Removing the platform-gated
.close()calls (previously Windows-only) and making cleanup universal is the correct call given the 0.15.2 fixes. - Deleting
test/setup.tsentirely is clean. The_getActiveHandlesunref hack was always fragile.
Notes
-
dangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrorsstill present - The comment explains why (vitest forks + N-API destructor ordering at exit). This is reasonable as a transient workaround, but the TODO should be tracked somewhere to avoid it becoming permanent. Consider filing an issue upstream. -
try { conn.close(); } catch {}pattern - Used in several places (closeOne, checkin). Silent catches are fine here since these are cleanup paths where failure is non-actionable, but a debug-level log would help diagnose issues if they recur. -
Race window in
closeOne- Between settingentry.closed = trueandpool.delete(repoId), a concurrentcheckout()could grab a connection fromentry.availablethat is about to be closed in the loop. Theavailable.length = 0at the end mitigates this, but since the close loop iterates the array while checkout might.pop()from it, there is a narrow window. Since this is single-threaded Node.js and there are no awaits in the loop, this is safe in practice, but worth a comment. -
tree-sitter-swiftremoved from lockfile - Looks like an unrelated cleanup that landed in this PR. Not a problem, just noting it.

Code Review
Clean upgrade — removes the segfault workarounds that were papered over the N-API destructor bug in @ladybugdb/core 0.15.1. A few notes:
Key Observations
-
Connection pool
closedflag — The newclosedfield onPoolEntrywith thecheckin()orphan-close logic is a good pattern. One edge case: if a connection is checked out, the entry is closed (LRU eviction), and thencheckincloses the connection — but ifcloseOneis called again for the same repoId before checkin happens (e.g. rapid re-init),pool.delete(repoId)already ran, socheckinwould need to handle a missing pool entry. Currently it receives theentryobject directly (not looked up by key), so this is actually safe. Just noting the reasoning for future readers. -
Database refCount close —
closeOnenow decrementsshared.refCountand closes the Database when it hits 0. The previous code only decremented without closing. This is correct now that the N-API destructors are fixed, but thedangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrors: truein vitest.config.ts is still there with a TODO — make sure that gets tracked. -
Removed
test/setup.ts— The oldafterAllthat unref'd active handles is gone. This is correct since 0.15.2 handles cleanup properly, but verify CI passes on all platforms (the comment invitest.config.tsmentions macOS still has destructor ordering issues at exit). -
tree-sitter-swiftremoved from package.json — This seems unrelated to the ladybugdb upgrade. Is this intentional? If Swift parsing support is being dropped, it should probably be its own commit or at least mentioned in the PR description.
Good
- Test helpers now properly close resources instead of relying on process exit, which is the right approach.
- The prebuilt platform binaries in optionalDependencies should eliminate the cmake-js build step on CI.
- Comments explain why
dangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrorsis still needed (exit-time destructor ordering, not the fixed QueryResult lifetime issue).
Looks good. Minor question on the tree-sitter-swift removal.
- Update `npm test` to run all tests (unit + integration + lbug-db) via `vitest run` instead of `vitest run test/unit` - Add `test:unit` script for running unit tests only - Remove `ci-integration.yml` — the per-file lbug-db process isolation is no longer needed with `dangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrors` and `fileParallelism: false` handling fork exit issues - Update `ci-unit-tests.yml` to run all tests with build + coverage - Simplify `ci.yml` gate (two jobs: quality + tests) - Simplify `ci-report.yml` (single coverage artifact, no merge step)
os.homedir() checks USERPROFILE on Windows, not HOME.

Code Review
Overall: Major quality-of-life upgrade. Bumps @ladybugdb/core to 0.15.2, removes segfault workarounds, merges the CI integration test matrix into a single test job, and properly closes native handles. This is a significant reduction in CI complexity and tech debt.
Key Changes
Native handle cleanup is now correct. The closeOne() function properly:
- Marks the pool entry as
closedto prevent orphaned connections - Closes available connections immediately
- Handles in-flight connections via
checkin()(detectsentry.closedand closes on return) - Reference-counts the shared Database and only closes when
refCount === 0
This is a clean fix for a real resource leak / crash pattern.
CI simplification is well-structured. Merging unit + integration into a single tests workflow reduces the matrix from 3 OS x 4 groups = 12 jobs to 3 OS x 1 = 3 jobs, which should cut CI cost and time significantly. The ci-report.yml changes consistently rename unit/integration to the unified tests naming.
Concerns
-
dangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrorsis still enabled invitest.config.ts. The TODO says "remove once LadybugDB fixes all N-API destructor ordering issues." Now that 0.15.2 fixes the segfault-on-close path, is this flag still needed? If the main segfault was thecloseSync()destructor bug, this upgrade might have fixed it. Worth testing a CI run with the flag removed to see if it passes clean. -
tree-sitter-swiftwas removed frompackage.jsondependencies (line in the lockfile diff). If this is intentional, the PR description should mention it. If any Swift parsing tests exist, they would silently fail or skip. -
Integration test coverage reporting is gone. The old CI ran integration tests separately with
--coverageand merged coverage. The new unifiednpx vitest runwith coverage should cover both, but thetest:integrationscript still exists in package.json. This could confuse contributors who runnpm run test:integrationlocally and expect it to still work as a standalone command. -
Potential race in
closeOne()+checkin()interaction: IfcloseOne()is called while a connection is checked out,entry.closed = trueis set. Whencheckin()runs later, it checksentry.closedand closes the connection. ButcloseOne()also callspool.delete(repoId), so theentryobject is orphaned from the pool. This works becausecheckin()receives theentryreference directly (not via pool lookup), but it's worth a comment noting this contract.
No security issues found. The resource cleanup improvements are a net positive for stability.
On macOS, N-API destructors crash fork workers on exit. With isolate: true (default), vitest recycles the fork between files, triggering the crash after each file. After several crashes, the remaining lbug-db files never execute. isolate: false keeps all 8 lbug-db files in a single fork — the fork only exits once after all files complete, and that single exit crash is caught by dangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrors.
Vitest v4 requires unique groupOrder when projects have different maxWorkers (lbug-db has fileParallelism: false → maxWorkers: 1).
global-setup.ts called conn.close() and db.close() without await —
these return Promise<void> in @ladybugdb/core 0.15.2. The setup
function returned before the DB was fully closed, so vitest forks
hit a stale file lock when opening the same DB path, crashing the
lbug-db worker before any test ran.
isolate: false caused native state corruption after 2-3 open/close
cycles in the same fork (vitest-specific, not reproducible in plain
Node.js). Without it, each file gets its own module scope and the
N-API destructor crash at fork exit is caught by
dangerouslyIgnoreUnhandledErrors.
Also fixes fire-and-forget close() calls in the pool adapter —
try/catch around an async close() never catches rejections; changed
to .catch(() => {}) for proper unhandled-rejection prevention.
Before: 0/8 lbug-db files ran on macOS CI (fork crash).
After: 8/8 pass, 84 files, 3077 tests, zero errors.
…flect correct symbol counts and relationships
…peration validation
The old ci-report.yml used workflow_run which always runs code from the default branch (main). This meant the PR comment used main's stale report template that still referenced the old unit/integration split architecture — causing "Merge coverage reports" failures. Moving the report inline to ci.yml means it runs from the PR branch and uses the current report template. The report now shows: - per-platform status (Ubuntu/Windows/macOS columns) - unified test counts from the single vitest run - coverage with base branch (main) delta comparison - commit SHA for traceability Also removes the save-pr-meta job since the report no longer needs a separate workflow_run trigger.
