Summary

Repro (from #96692): enable the Nav Inspector, click a <Link prefetch={true}>, close the inspector, navigate home, re-enable it, and click the same link. The app hung in a pending "Compiling..." state while firing prefetch requests in an infinite loop (~30/sec).

The Instant Navigation Testing lock restricted navigation reads to entries created within the current lock scope (ownedEntries), enforced as a post-hoc filter after the cache lookup. But the segment cache resolves lookups by most-specific-match, so a previous scope's runtime-prefetch entries at concrete param keypaths kept winning the lookup, the filter kept rejecting them, and the locked prefetch created its replacement at a more generic keypath that could never win — every scheduler pass discarded and refetched forever.

Rather than patch the filter, this replaces the ownedEntries mechanism:

  • Each lock scope owns a private segment CacheMap that starts empty and is discarded at release, so a captured navigation structurally observes only data fetched under the lock — cross-scope shadowing becomes impossible by construction.
  • The map is an explicit capability bound when work is created: a prefetch task captures its map when scheduled (PrefetchTask.segmentCacheMap — the single place that consults lock state), a locked navigation inherits its driving task's map, and everything else — unlocked navigations, hydration, refreshes, traversals, server actions and patches — binds to the shared map. Reads and response writes receive the map explicitly, so a request that straddles a scope boundary still writes into the map its entries live in.

In production builds without the testing API this compiles down to the previous single-map behavior.

Includes the failing test from #96692 (thanks @samselikoff), hardened to use the retry-based panel-reopen helper the sibling tests use.

Verification

  • pnpm test-dev-turbo test/development/app-dir/instant-navs-devtools/instant-navs-devtools.test.ts (32/32, includes the new regression test)
  • pnpm test-dev-webpack test/development/app-dir/instant-navs-devtools/instant-navs-devtools.test.ts -t "repeat clicks"
  • pnpm test-dev-turbo test/e2e/app-dir/instant-navigation-testing-api/instant-navigation-testing-api.test.ts
  • pnpm test-start-turbo test/e2e/app-dir/instant-navigation-testing-api/instant-navigation-testing-api.test.ts
  • pnpm test-start-turbo test/e2e/app-dir/segment-cache/basic/segment-cache-basic.test.ts (production paths unregressed)

Repro: enable the Nav Inspector, click a <Link prefetch={true}>, close
the inspector, navigate home, re-enable it, and click the same link.
The app hung in a pending state while firing prefetch requests in an
infinite loop.

The Instant Navigation Testing lock restricted navigation reads to
entries created within the current lock scope (ownedEntries), enforced
as a post-hoc filter after the cache lookup. But the segment cache
resolves lookups by most-specific-match, so a previous scope's
runtime-prefetch entries at concrete param keypaths kept winning the
lookup, the filter kept rejecting them, and the locked prefetch created
its replacement at a more generic keypath that could never win — every
scheduler pass discarded and refetched forever.

Rather than patch the filter, this replaces the ownedEntries mechanism:

- Each lock scope owns a private segment CacheMap that starts empty and
  is discarded at release, so a captured navigation structurally
  observes only data fetched under the lock.
- The map is an explicit capability bound when work is created: a
  prefetch task captures its map when scheduled (the single place that
  consults lock state), a locked navigation inherits its driving task's
  map, and everything else — unlocked navigations, hydration, refreshes,
  traversals, server actions and patches — binds to the shared map.
  Reads and response writes receive the map explicitly, so a request
  that straddles a scope boundary still writes into the map its entries
  live in.

Includes the regression test from the original repro, hardened to use
the retry-based panel-reopen helper the sibling tests use.

@acdlite
acdlite requested a review from samselikoff August 10, 2026 18:47
The Instant Navigation Testing lock's per-entry ref-counting
(pendingCount / trackNavigationLockPrefetchEntry) is redundant now that
a prefetch task only completes after a full pass observes every segment
response it registered on via blockTaskOnPendingResponse. Replace it
with a single resolve (resolveNavigationLockPrefetch) fired when the
locked navigation's driving task completes, and delete the
track-on-reuse fork of readOrCreateSegmentCacheEntry along with the
navigationLockPrefetch threading through the scheduler and cache.

Also close a gap in the completion invariant this now relies on: an
InlinedIntoChild entry read into a bundle chain was never blocked on if
the chain was dropped before being pinged, so a task could complete
while that entry's response was still in flight. Block on Pending
entries at read time in accumulateSegmentBundle.
