The OutOfOrderBuffer had a deadlock issue where: 1. Buffer fills with 8 pages from workers 2. Next expected page (e.g., page 0) is missing 3. All workers block trying to push more pages 4. Deadlock because no one can push page 0 Fix: Implement smarter backpressure that: - Blocks when buffer is full AND next expected page is missing - Allows push if we're pushing the missing next expected page - Allows push if next expected page is already in buffer Also add pop_next_in_order_blocking() for multi-threaded scenarios. Acceptance criteria: - Unit test: push pages 3,1,4,1,5,9,2,6 -> pop in 0..=9 order PASS - Backpressure test: 9th push blocks until page 0 arrives PASS - Concurrency stress test: 8 workers + 1 consumer, 1000 pages PASS - finish() test: producer finished, heap drained -> pop returns None PASS Closes: pdftract-31bum Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

pdftract-core
The core Rust library for PDF text extraction. This crate provides the parsing, layout analysis, font encoding recovery, and text extraction primitives used by the CLI (pdftract-cli) and Python bindings (pdftract-py).
Cargo.lock Policy
This workspace checks in Cargo.lock at the repository root. This is unconventional for library crates—the Cargo Book historically suggested that only binary crates should check in lockfiles, allowing library consumers to resolve their own dependency versions.
pdftract departs from this convention for release reproducibility:
-
SLSA Level 3 provenance requires that every milestone tag produces byte-identical artifacts across builds. Without a checked-in lockfile, two runs of
cargo buildon the same commit can resolve different transitive dependency versions, producing different binary hashes. -
Multi-output artifacts—this workspace produces Rust crates (
pdftract-core,pdftract-cli), Python wheels (pdftract-py), and Docker images. All must be built from the same dependency tree. -
Supply-chain security—the lockfile pins checksums for all transitive dependencies, enabling
cargo auditto detect yanked or compromised crates. -
Downstream consumers can still ignore the lockfile if needed. Cargo allows
cargo build --frozenwith a local lockfile override, or consumers can vendor the crate with their own dependency resolution.
The tradeoff—occasional merge conflicts when PRs update overlapping dependencies—is worth the guarantee of reproducible releases. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the lockfile-update workflow.
