Summary

On a cache hit, the callback-style provide() of CacheFacade and ItemCacheFacade returned the cached value from inside its get callback and never called callback, so a caller waiting on a hit never got an answer. webpack itself calls only providePromise; the callback form is public API for plugins.

// before (lib/cache/CacheFacade.js, both provide methods)
if (cacheEntry !== undefined) return cacheEntry;
// after
if (cacheEntry !== undefined) return callback(null, cacheEntry);

What kind of change does this PR introduce?

fix

Did you add tests for your changes?

Yes. The two hit-path tests in test/unitCases/CacheFacade.unittest.js timed out before the fix and pass after it. All 39 tests in the three cache files pass.

Does this PR introduce a breaking change?

No. A cache hit now calls back the way a miss always did.

If relevant, what needs to be documented once your changes are merged or what have you already documented?

n/a

Use of AI

Claude Code found the bug while typing the cache, wrote the failing test first, then the fix and the coverage tests, and checked them with yarn lint and the targeted unit tests. The author reviewed it.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Callback-style cache lookups now invoke the callback with the cached value on a cache hit, while continuing to skip computation.
  • Developer Tools
    • Type coverage reports clarify when inferred any types were not compared and distinguish that from a report with no changes.
  • Tests
    • Expanded coverage for cache hits and misses, error handling, multi-item cache results, and pack restoration and selection, including cases involving snapshots and changed dependencies.

Walkthrough

The patch changes cache-hit callbacks in two cache facade methods. It adds tests for cache APIs, multi-item cache resolution, and pack restoration. It also updates the type-coverage no-change message to reflect whether inferred any counts were compared.

Changes: Cache facade callbacks

Layer / File(s) Summary
Provide callback behavior
lib/cache/CacheFacade.js, test/unitCases/CacheFacade.unittest.js, .changeset/221-cache-facade-provide-hit.md
Both provide methods now call back with the cached entry on a hit. Tests cover hits, misses, and errors for callback and promise APIs. The changeset documents the callback behavior.

Multi-item cache tests

Layer / File(s) Summary
Multi-item result selection
test/unitCases/MultiItemCache.unittest.js
Tests assert that getPromise() resolves with the second item when it contains data, or with undefined when all tested items return undefined.

Pack file cache tests

Layer / File(s) Summary
Pack restoration and selection
test/unitCases/PackFileCacheStrategy.unittest.js
Tests cover restored pack metadata and lazy content, deserialization formats, snapshot checks, and re-resolution outcomes.

Type-coverage reporting

Layer / File(s) Summary
No-change report wording
tooling/type-coverage.js
The no-change message distinguishes whether inferred any counts were compared.

Possibly related PRs

  • webpack/webpack#23021: Changes the type-coverage report to compare inferred any counts with --base-any.
  • webpack/webpack#23016: Introduces the base-comparison type-coverage report that this patch further updates.

The title uses valid Conventional Commit syntax, uses the allowed type fix, and clearly describes the cache-hit callback change. The branch prefix is not provided, so the required type-to-branch-prefix match cannot be verified.

Comparing base (cbe037d) to head (83b31b1). Merging this pull request will not change the code webpack generates.

What moved Tests Assets Gzip Raw Test edit

Read Changed, test untouched first: the test is byte-identical on both sides, so webpack generated the difference. Changed, test edited moved partly because the test did — Test edit is how many bytes the test gained, and a bundle that grew by less is not a regression. New and Deleted are whole files, not deltas — a new asset was created, not grown, so it reads gray (⚪ added) — and adding tests cannot bury a real change. Gzip decides, because that is what users download; raw is the tiebreak, and brotli and zstd are per asset below.
