Summary

A user-defined export reader that raises can hang the whole execution.

class Slow < Taski::Task
  exports :value
  def value = raise("boom")
  def run = sleep(0.2)
end

class Root < Taski::Task
  def run = Slow.value
end

Root.run # never returns

TaskWrapper calls the export reader on behalf of the task that asked for the value. When the requester is parked on the dependency, the call happens in notify_fiber_waiters_completed, inside mark_completed, after @waiters has been cleared. If the reader raises, the exception escapes into fail_task of the dependency. The completed dependency is re-marked failed, and every waiter not yet resumed stays parked forever.

When the dependency has already completed, the same reader is called inside request_value instead, and the requester fails normally. The outcome depended on timing.

Fix

read_export_for_requester catches the reader's error and hands it to the requester's fiber:

  • In notify_fiber_waiters_completed, an error becomes a ResumeError for that waiter. The dependency stays completed, and the remaining waiters are resumed as usual.
  • request_value goes through the same method, so an already-completed dependency returns DepFailed.

Behaviour change

Before, when the dependency had already completed, the reader's error was raised outside the requester's run, so run could not rescue it. Both paths now raise it in the requester's fiber, at the point where run reads the dependency, so it can be rescued there. If run does not rescue it, the requester fails with that error as before.

Tests

test/test_export_reader_error.rb covers three cases:

  • A reader error while the requester is parked fails the requester. Before the fix this timed out.
  • A reader error after the dependency completed fails the requester.
  • The requester can rescue the reader error. Before the fix this timed out.

rake test (859 runs) and rake standard pass locally.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Errors raised while reading a task’s exported value are now reported as task failures instead of escaping unexpectedly.
    • This behavior applies both when a task is already waiting for the value and when it requests the value after the exporting task has completed.
    • Requesting tasks can still catch and handle these errors, allowing them to continue with their own recovery behavior.

A user-defined export reader is called by TaskWrapper on behalf of the
task that asked for the value. When the requester was parked on the
dependency, the reader ran inside mark_completed after @waiters had been
cleared. If it raised, the exception escaped into fail_task of the
dependency: the completed dependency was re-marked failed and every
waiter not yet resumed stayed parked, so the execution never returned.

Catch the reader's error and hand it to the requester's fiber as a
ResumeError, and do the same when the dependency had already completed,
so both paths fail (or let the requester rescue) the same way.

Walkthrough

TaskWrapper now converts export reader exceptions into dependency failures and delivers them to requester fibers. Tests cover requesters waiting for a dependency, requesters reading after completion, and requesters that rescue the error.

lib/taski/execution/task_wrapper.rb, sig/taski.rbs, test/fixtures/export_reader_error_tasks.rb, test/test_export_reader_error.rb
TaskWrapper wraps export reads in dependency results and sends reader errors to requester fibers. Fixtures and tests cover waiting reads, reads after completion, and requester-side rescue.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~12 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 65c84

The change is mergeable with a bounded test follow-up: make the late-requester test wait for dependency completion so it reliably protects the intended behavior.

bundler-audit (Security workflow) is failing, but not because of this PR. This PR does not touch Gemfile or Gemfile.lock, and the same job has failed on master in every scheduled run since at least 2026-08-24 (for example run 35596508985).

The advisories are against locked dev-dependency versions:

No open PR bumps these yet. Proposed fix, as a separate PR:

bundle update --conservative concurrent-ruby json

Locally this moves concurrent-ruby to 1.3.8 and json to 2.21.2, and bundle audit check --update then reports no vulnerabilities. I'm leaving it out of this PR to keep this PR to the fix.

Comment thread test/test_export_reader_error.rb
LateRequester relied on a 0.3s sleep to read RaisingReader only after it
completed. When the sleep lost the race it exercised the parked-waiter
path instead of request_value, and the sleep slowed the suite down.

Read a non-raising export of RaisingReader first. It only returns once
RaisingReader has completed, so the raising export is then always read
inside request_value.
