v0.17.13: thread Writer through patch + mux for big-write consistency
The bounded-cache writeback wrapper (crate::io::Writer) was added in 0.17.10 and wired into Disc::sweep in 0.17.11, but the other two paths in the crate that write large amounts of data sequentially — Disc::patch and the MKV/M2TS mux — were still operating on raw std::fs::File. That meant the dirty-page burst pathology the wrapper exists to prevent could still bite on slow / network-attached staging during recovery and mux phases. This release plugs those gaps: - Disc::patch (disc/mod.rs:1981) now wraps the reopened ISO in Writer before any seek / write. sync_all on Writer cleanly drains the in-flight chunk before the existing fsync. - mux/resolve.rs MKV and M2TS branches wrap the output File in Writer underneath BufWriter. UHD MKV mux routinely produces 70+ GB of sequential output; the page cache no longer absorbs that as a single hot blast on slow targets. Mapfile, log, settings, history, and stream-pipeline byte buffers remain unchanged: those are either small one-shot writes (where the wrapper has zero benefit and adds a stream_position syscall) or already use bounded persistence (mapfile time-batched in 0.17.12). The principle: any path that writes substantial sequential data to a single file uses Writer; trivial writes don't.

## 0.17.13 (2026-05-09)
|
||||
|
||||
### Use `crate::io::Writer` uniformly for all binary file output
|
||||
|
||||
0.17.10 introduced the bounded-cache writeback wrapper (`sync_file_range`
|
||||
+ `posix_fadvise(DONTNEED)` per chunk) and 0.17.11 wired it into
|
||||
`Disc::sweep`. The other two big-write paths in the crate were still
|
||||
opening raw `std::fs::File` and would have hit the same dirty-page
|
||||
burst pathology against slow / network-attached staging.
|
||||
|
||||
This release threads `crate::io::Writer` through the remaining sites:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`Disc::patch`** (`disc/mod.rs:1981`): the ISO file reopened for
|
||||
Pass-N recovery now wraps in `Writer` before any seek / write.
|
||||
Recovery writes are sparse, but the wrapper costs nothing when
|
||||
there's no chunk crossing — and on heavily-damaged discs it
|
||||
matters as patch accumulates GB of recovered data.
|
||||
- **MKV mux output** (`mux/resolve.rs:243`): `BufWriter::with_capacity`
|
||||
now wraps `Writer::new(file)` instead of a raw `File`. UHD MKVs
|
||||
routinely exceed 70 GB of sequential writes; pre-0.17.13 those
|
||||
bursts went straight to the kernel writeback queue.
|
||||
- **M2TS mux output** (`mux/resolve.rs:251`): same change for
|
||||
parity with the MKV path — anyone using `m2ts://` URLs gets it
|
||||
too.
|
||||
|
||||
No new public surface. `Writer::sync_all()` is called from `Disc::patch`
|
||||
and `sweep_pipeline`'s consumer at end of pass; mux exits via Drop on
|
||||
the wrapping `BufWriter`, which propagates flush down to `Writer`'s
|
||||
final `note_progress` (kernel finishes the in-flight chunk on file
|
||||
close — there's no explicit `sync_all` for mux today, same behaviour
|
||||
as before).
|
||||

||||
