Give only the focused terminal its own event stream - #15135
azooz2003-bit wants to merge 2 commits into
Conversation
Two regressions behind the per-terminal stream reconnect loop: - the event queue reassigns surface lanes by output recency, so 30 terminals printing in the background reassign every lane; - IrxSurfaceEventLanes checks the lane limit before awaiting the open, so concurrent opens all pass it. Both tests fail on this commit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per-terminal event streams (#14699) assigned lanes by output recency. With more active terminals than lanes, background output reassigned lanes on every frame, reopening 40 to 60 streams per connection, each starting with a full screen. The writer's own LRU checked its limit before awaiting the open, so concurrent opens overshot it, and closed streams kept holding the phone's 40 slots until it read them. Once the slots ran out every terminal's output stalled and the phone redialed, about once a minute. Lane assignment now has one owner, the connection's event queue, driven by focus: the surface the phone last opened an input lane for or sent input to holds the lane, and every other surface rides the shared events stream. A focus change releases the old lane: its queued frames are dropped, its stream is reset so the unsent backlog is discarded, and it continues on the shared stream from a full frame. Focus keys are canonicalized because the input lane and the render-grid events spell surface IDs differently. IrxSurfaceEventLanes no longer evicts. Opens still waiting for credit count toward its limit, a send over the limit throws laneLimit, and release() refuses later sends below the released generation so an in-flight frame cannot reopen a stream for a surface that lost focus.

Release and focus writer calls run in unordered detached Tasks.
Each focusSurfaceLane call starts a new unstructured Task. Two quick focus changes, A→B and then B→A, create two Tasks. Swift does not order unstructured Tasks that target the same actor. The writer can therefore run noteInteractiveSurface("B") after noteInteractiveSurface("A"). In that case the transport marks the wrong surface as focused, and that surface gets the wrong stream priority. The queue owns the order of focus decisions, but the writer applies them in no fixed order.
Serialize the writer calls through one ordered path. For example, append each release and focus to an AsyncStream that one long-lived Task consumes. Alternatively, await the writer calls inline. An inline await is valid only if a slow release cannot block the caller.

Summary
Phones connected to a Mac with many active terminals reconnected about once a minute. #14699 gave each terminal's output its own QUIC stream, and the Mac assigned those streams by output recency. With more active terminals than streams (for example about 30 on a nightly Mac), background output kept reassigning streams, so every connection opened 40 to 60 streams in its first seconds, each starting with a full screen (8 to 12 MB of catch-up over the relay). A closed stream holds one of the phone's 40 slots until the phone reads it to the end, so the slots ran out, new opens timed out after 5 s, all terminal output stalled, and the phone redialed. Separately,
IrxSurfaceEventLaneschecked its lane limit before waiting for the open, so concurrent opens went past its cap of 16 (27 to 28 were seen open).Only the terminal the user is looking at now gets its own stream. The connection's event queue owns lane assignment and follows focus: the surface the phone last opened an input lane for (it does this on mount) or sent input to holds the lane, and every other terminal rides the shared events stream as it did before #14699. When focus moves, the old surface is released: its queued frames are dropped, its stream is reset so the unsent backlog is discarded, and it continues on the shared stream from one full frame. Focus keys are canonicalized, because the input lane and render-grid events spell surface IDs differently.
IrxSurfaceEventLanesno longer evicts: opens still waiting for credit count toward its limit, a send over the limit throwslaneLimit, andreleaserefuses later sends below the released generation so a frame already in flight cannot reopen a stream for a surface that lost focus.This is a Mac-only change; current phones need no update. A follow-up will have the phone tell the Mac which terminals are on screen, so background terminals can pause instead of streaming on the shared stream (today the phone discards frames for terminals it is not showing).
Testing
IrxSurfaceEventLanesTests/pendingOpensCountTowardTheLaneLimit(package,swift testinPackages/Shared/CmuxIrxTransport): 5 concurrent opens against a limit of 2 all reached the opener before the fix; after it, 2 open and 3 are refused.MobileHostSurfaceEventLaneTests/backgroundOutputNeverReassignsSurfaceLanes(app-host, CI): 30 terminals printing for 3 rounds. I also compiled the realMobileHostConnectionEventQueue.swiftinto a standalone harness with the same assertions: before the fix all 30 surfaces took a lane and all 30 were reassigned; after it none are.releasesemantics.

Fixed: The iOS app no longer reconnects every minute or so when the Mac has many terminals producing output
🤖 Generated with Claude Code
Summary by cubic
Fixes the iOS app reconnecting roughly once a minute on Macs with many active terminals by giving only the focused terminal its own event stream.
Previously, every terminal's output rode its own QUIC stream, with lanes assigned by output recency. With more active terminals than streams, background output kept reassigning streams, opening 40 to 60 per connection — each starting with a full screen of catch-up — until the phone's stream credit ran out, output stalled, and the phone redialed. Now lane assignment follows focus: the surface the phone last opened an input lane for or sent input to holds the lane, and every other terminal rides the shared events stream. When focus moves, the old surface's queued frames are dropped, its stream is reset to discard the unsent backlog, and it continues on the shared stream from one full frame. Focus keys are canonicalized because the input lane and render-grid events spell surface IDs differently.
IrxSurfaceEventLanesno longer evicts lanes by write recency. Opens still waiting for stream credit count toward the limit, sends over it throwlaneLimit, andreleaserefuses frames below the released generation so an in-flight frame cannot reopen a stream for a surface that lost focus.This is Mac-only; current phones need no update. A follow-up will have the phone report which terminals are on screen so background terminals can pause instead of streaming on the shared lane.
