Three failure paths in the snapshot cache were invisible. All three drop or
misreport config delivery, and none of them could be counted.
1. A resource that fails to marshal is dropped from the snapshot.
resources.go:32, simple.go:398 and simple.go:479 each did:
out, err := item.Resource.MarshalVTStrict()
if err != nil {
fmt.Printf("failed to MarshalVTStrict resource %s: %v\n", ...)
continue
}
The resource never enters the snapshot, so it is never pushed, and a proxy
already holding it sees it removed on the next diff. The only trace was an
unstructured stdout line - unreadable in an environment logging ~55k lines/min
against a one-minute kubelet buffer.
These now go through reportMarshalError, which logs via the cache's own logger
and calls the new OnResourceMarshalError hook. The hook is nil by default, so
this adds no dependency and no behaviour change; xlr8 can set it once at
startup to get a counter.
2. A send on a closed response channel reported "no state change".
respondDelta recovered the panic without naming its return values, so it
returned (nil, nil) - which respondDeltaWatches reads as "no change, keep the
watch" and CreateDeltaWatch reads as "delayedResponse, register the watch".
Both then hold a watch against a stream nobody will read from, and it looks
exactly like a healthy idle watch.
The returns are now named and the recover sets ErrResponseChannelClosed, which
both callers already log via Errorf. Deliberately distinct from the full-channel
case, which keeps returning (nil, nil) because retrying there is correct.
Note this makes the condition visible but does not change what the callers do
with it: CreateDeltaWatch still registers a delayed watch on a dead channel.
That is a behaviour change and wants its own PR.
3. ConstructVersionMap reported "%!w(<nil>)" instead of the cause.
if r.Version == "" {
return fmt.Errorf("failed to get resource version: %w", err)
}
err is the already-checked GetResponseTypeURL error and is nil here, so %w
rendered the literal "%!w(<nil>)" and the actual cause - which resource, of
which type - was never reported. Callers log this and carry on with a partial
VersionMap.
Also replaces six latency fmt.Printf calls with cache.log.Debugf. Upstream
v0.12.0 has zero fmt.Print in pkg/; this fork had ten.
Verified RED: dropping the named returns fails TestRespondDeltaReportsAClosedChannel
with "err = <nil>, want ErrResponseChannelClosed".
Test status on origin/nexus before this change: pkg/cache/v3 has 13 failing
tests and pkg/server/v3 does not build. The failing set is unchanged here.
TestSnapshotCache is separately flaky at baseline - 3 failures in 8 runs -
because MarshalVTStrict serialises proto map fields in Go's randomised map
order, so cached resource bytes are non-deterministic for any resource with a
map field. Reported, not fixed here.

Thread the snapshot type URL into marshal-error reporting.
NewSnapshot and NewSnapshotWithTTLs receive typ from a map keyed by resource type URL, but they discard it before calling IndexAndMarshalResourcesByName. A marshal failure then reports typeURL == "". Because the free function has no logger, OnResourceMarshalError is the only report and cannot classify the failure by type URL.
Pass typ through an internal type-aware helper before reporting. Keep the existing public helper signatures compatible. Batch and single upserts already pass typ.

Remove watches after ErrResponseChannelClosed.
When respondDelta returns ErrResponseChannelClosed, CreateDeltaWatch still treats the nil response as delayed and registers a watch. respondDeltaWatches also keeps the existing watch. In non-ADS mode, it returns before processing later watches. Future updates can retry the closed channel.
Treat this error as terminal. Do not register a new watch, delete the affected existing watch, and continue processing other non-ADS watches.
Suggested fix
response, err := cache.respondDelta(context.Background(), snapshot, request, value, state)
if err != nil {
cache.log.Errorf("failed to respond with delta response: %s", err)
+ if err == ErrResponseChannelClosed {
+ return nil, false
+ }

Three failure paths in the snapshot cache were invisible. Each one drops or misreports config delivery, and none of them could be counted. Found while profiling xlr8 for ShareChat/nexus#927.
