+# Doclite — Critical Bug Report
+
+> Generated by reviewing all Go source files in `doclite/`, `doclite.go`, and `sharedlib/docliteexport.go`.
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This report documents **13 bugs** discovered across the doclite embedded document database codebase. The bugs span data integrity issues, concurrency hazards, missing error handling, and API inconsistencies.
+
+| Severity | Count | Key Impact |
+|----------|-------|------------|
+| **CRITICAL** | 3 | Silent data loss, incorrect API behavior, unbounded resource usage |
+| **HIGH** | 5 | Panics, data corruption on reload, race conditions |
+| **MEDIUM** | 3 | Silent failures, incomplete persistence, incorrect query results |
+| **LOW** | 2 | Deprecated API usage, inconsistent API behavior |
+
+**Most urgent fix:** Bug #1 (`UpdateOneDoc` in `sharedlib/docliteexport.go`) — any caller using the shared library's update function is silently deleting documents instead of updating them.
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Fix Priority
+
+Given the interdependencies between bugs, the following order is recommended for fixes:
+
+1. **Bug #1** (`UpdateOneDoc`) — Data loss; fix immediately as any shared-library consumer is affected.
+2. **Bug #6** (`diskInitBtree`) — Data corruption on reload; affects data persistence reliability.
+3. **Bug #7** (Pool ID reuse) — Data loss on insert; compounding issue with #6.
+4. **Bug #4** (`indexOfNodes` panic) — Runtime crash; easy one-line guard clause.
+5. **Bug #5** (`DeleteAll` range) — Data corruption; off-by-one on deletion boundary.
+6. **Bug #8** (`cutOverflowfile` race) — Data corruption under concurrency.
+7. **Bug #2** (`NextObject` recursion) — Incorrect query results for cursor users.
+8. **Bug #11** (`FindNodes` pointer aliasing) — Incorrect query results.
+9. **Bug #3** (`BtreeMaxSize`) — Resource exhaustion protection.
+10. **Bug #9** (`getMeta` error) — Silent failure on corrupted files.
+11. **Bug #10** (`Save` vs `Close`) — Incomplete persistence.
+12. **Bug #13** (`DeleteOne` commit) — API inconsistency.
+13. **Bug #12** (deprecated `os.SEEK_SET`) — Code hygiene.
+
+---
+
+## CRITICAL
+
+### 1. `sharedlib/docliteexport.go` — `UpdateOneDoc` does not update, only deletes
+
+- **Severity:** CRITICAL
+- **Function:** `UpdateOneDoc(id int64, doc string, name string)`
+- **Issue:** The function calls `collection.DeleteOne(id)` and completely ignores the `doc` parameter. It should unmarshal `doc` and call `collection.UpdateOneDoc` (or the underlying tree's `Update`) to persist the new document data. As written, the "update" operation silently deletes the document.
+- **Fix:** Unmarshal `doc` into a `map[string]interface{}` and call `collection.UpdateOneDoc(id, document)` instead of `collection.DeleteOne(id)`.
+
+```go
+func UpdateOneDoc(id int64, doc string, name string) {
+    collection := getColFromName(name)
+    document := make(map[string]interface{})
+    err := json.Unmarshal([]byte(doc), &document)
+    if err != nil {
+        return
+    }
+    collection.UpdateOneDoc(id, document)
+}
+```
+
+### 2. `doclite/cursor.go` — `NextObject` calls `Next()` instead of `NextObject()` recursively
+
+- **Severity:** CRITICAL
+- **Function:** `Cursor.NextObject(object interface{}) interface{}`
+- **Issue:** When the current cache cursor is exhausted and there are more cache cursors to serve, the method calls `return c.Next()` instead of `return c.NextObject(object)`. This discards the `object` parameter across cache cursor boundaries, returning raw filter matches (maps) instead of unmarshaled struct instances.
+- **Fix:** Change `return c.Next()` to `return c.NextObject(object)` on the recursive call.
+
+```go
+func (c *Cursor) NextObject(object interface{}) interface{} {
+    ...
+    if doc == nil {
+        c.cacheCursors = c.cacheCursors[1:]
+        if len(c.cacheCursors) > 0 {
+            c.servingCacheCursor = c.cacheCursors[0]
+            return c.NextObject(object)  // was: return c.Next()
+        }
+    }
+    ...
+}
+```
+
+### 3. `doclite/btree.go` — `BtreeMaxSize` constant defined but never enforced
+
+- **Severity:** CRITICAL
+- **Function:** `Btree` struct, constant `BtreeMaxSize = 10000000`
+- **Issue:** The constant `BtreeMaxSize` is defined at the package level, suggesting a safety limit on B-tree size. However, it is never checked during `Insert` or `addRoot`. The B-tree can grow unboundedly, potentially causing disk exhaustion or integer overflow in offset calculations.
+- **Fix:** Add a check in `Insert` or `addRoot` that returns an error when `NumDocuments` or number of roots approaches `BtreeMaxSize`.
+
+```go
+func (t *Btree) addRoot(node *Node) error {
+    if int(t.NumDocuments) >= BtreeMaxSize {
+        return errors.New("btree max size exceeded")
+    }
+    // ... existing logic
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## HIGH
+
+### 4. `doclite/utils.go` — `indexOfNodes` panics when nodes slice is empty
+
+- **Severity:** HIGH
+- **Function:** `indexOfNodes(key int64, nodes []*Node, nodesLen int) int`
+- **Issue:** If `nodes` is empty and `nodesLen` is 0, the function sets `mid = 0` and then accesses `nodes[mid]` in the second `for` loop (`nodes[mid].document.id`), causing an index-out-of-range panic. This can be triggered via `findFitingNode` when a Btree has no roots.
+- **Fix:** Add a guard clause at the top of the function:
+
+```go
+func indexOfNodes(key int64, nodes []*Node, nodesLen int) int {
+    if nodesLen == 0 {
+        return 0
+    }
+    // ... existing logic
+}
+```
+
+### 5. `doclite/cache.go` — `DeleteAll` iterates one past the valid child range
+
+- **Severity:** HIGH
+- **Function:** `Cache.DeleteAll(filter interface{}, doc interface{}) []int64`
+- **Issue:** The loop uses `for i := 0; i <= c.node.numChildren` (inclusive bound, starting at 0). When `i == 0`, it fetches `c.node.document.id + 0` which is the root node itself, potentially treating the root as a deletable document. The valid children are at offsets `1..numChildren`.
+- **Fix:** Change the loop to start at `i := 1`:
+
+```go
+for i := 1; i <= c.node.numChildren; i++ {
+    n, err := c.get(c.node.document.id + int64(i))
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+### 6. `doclite/btree.go` — `diskInitBtree` calculates wrong number of children for last root when `NumDocuments % MinKeys == 0`
+
+- **Severity:** HIGH
+- **Function:** `Btree.diskInitBtree()`
+- **Issue:** When `NumDocuments` is exactly divisible by `MinKeys`, the last root's `numChildren` is set to `int(t.NumDocuments % int64(MinKeys))` which equals `0`. However, the last root page should have `MinKeys` children in this case. This causes all documents in the last root page to be invisible on reload.
+- **Fix:** Use `MinKeys` when the remainder is 0:
+
+```go
+if i+1 == t.NumRoots {
+    remainder := int(t.NumDocuments % int64(MinKeys))
+    if remainder == 0 {
+        node.numChildren = MinKeys
+    } else {
+        node.numChildren = remainder
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### 7. `doclite/btree.go` — Pool-based ID reuse in `Insert` can cause duplicate root creation or data loss
+
+- **Severity:** HIGH
+- **Function:** `Btree.Insert(data []byte) int64`
+- **Issue:** When an ID is reused from the pool and `(id-1) % MinKeys == 0`, the code calls `t.Update(id, data)` instead of `t.addRoot(node)`. However, if the original root for that slot was already split/replaced, the target root node may no longer exist, leading to a "not found" error or silent data loss.
+- **Fix:** Add explicit error handling and validation when updating a reused root-slot ID. Ensure the target root still exists before calling `Update`, or recreate the root if needed.
+
+```go
+if fromPool {
+    err := t.Update(id, data)
+    if err != nil {
+        // Handle missing root — may need to create a new one
+        return -1
+    }
+} else {
+    t.addRoot(node)
+}
+```
+
+### 8. `doclite/files.go` — `cutOverflowfile` has a race condition with `readWriteMutex`
+
+- **Severity:** HIGH
+- **Function:** `Cache.cutOverflowfile(start, end int64)`
+- **Issue:** The function calls `c.db.overflowfile.Seek(end, os.SEEK_SET)` before acquiring `readWriteMutex`. The subsequent `read()` and `write()` calls pass `lock=false`, so they don't re-acquire the lock. However, the `Seek` before the lock is not atomic with the subsequent reads/writes — another goroutine could seek the file to a different position in between, corrupting the overflow file. Additionally, since `read()` and `write()` use `ReadAt`/`WriteAt` with explicit offsets, the `Seek` call is redundant and potentially harmful.
+- **Fix:** Acquire `readWriteMutex` before the `Seek` call, or refactor to remove the `Seek` call entirely since `read()`/`write()` use explicit offsets.
+
+```go
+func (c *Cache) cutOverflowfile(start, end int64) {
+    readWriteMutex.Lock()
+    defer readWriteMutex.Unlock()
+    // Remove the Seek call — read()/write() use ReadAt/WriteAt with explicit offsets
+    buf := make([]byte, 1000)
+    for {
+        r, err := read(c.db.overflowfile, end, buf, false)
+        // ...
+    }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## MEDIUM
+
+### 9. `doclite/db.go` — `getMeta` ignores read errors
+
+- **Severity:** MEDIUM
+- **Function:** `DB.getMeta() *Meta`
+- **Issue:** `db.file.Read(buf)` is called without checking its return value or error. A truncated or corrupted file would silently produce partial metadata, leading to undefined behavior throughout the application.
+- **Fix:** Check the error return from `Read` and handle it:
+
+```go
+func (db *DB) getMeta() *Meta {
+    buf := make([]byte, metaDataLen)
+    db.file.Seek(0, os.SEEK_SET)
+    _, err := db.file.Read(buf)
+    if err != nil {
+        fmt.Printf("warning: failed to read metadata: %v\n", err)
+    }
+    db.metadata = &Meta{}
+    bson.Unmarshal(buf[:], db.metadata)
+    return db.metadata
+}
+```
+
+### 10. `doclite/db.go` — `Save` method is missing `bringBackOverflow()` call present in `Close`
+
+- **Severity:** MEDIUM
+- **Function:** `DB.Save()` and `DB.Close()`
+- **Issue:** Both methods contain nearly identical logic for saving the root tree and metadata. However, `Save()` is missing the `bringBackOverflow()` call that `Close()` has. This means data saved mid-session via `Save()` may not include overflow data, violating user expectations — users calling `Save()` expect a complete, consistent snapshot.
+- **Fix:** Refactor `Save()` to also call `bringBackOverflow()`, or clearly document that `Save()` is incomplete and `Close()` should be used for a full persistent snapshot.
+
+### 11. `doclite/cache.go` — `FindNodes` returns pointers to the same `object` variable
+
+- **Severity:** MEDIUM
+- **Function:** `Cache.FindNodes(filter, object interface{}, start int) ([]interface{}, int)`
+- **Issue:** All matching documents are unmarshaled into the same `object` variable, and that same reference is appended to the `nodes` slice. This means the returned slice contains multiple pointers to the same (last unmarshaled) object. Users iterating cursor results will see identical data for every match.
+- **Fix:** Create a new instance of the object type for each match using reflection, or return raw byte data (`[]byte`) instead of unmarshaled objects.
+
+```go
+// Create a new instance for each match
+objType := reflect.TypeOf(object)
+if objType.Kind() == reflect.Ptr {
+    objType = objType.Elem()
+}
+newObj := reflect.New(objType).Interface()
+err = json.Unmarshal(buf, newObj)
+// ...
+nodes = append(nodes, newObj)
+```
+
+---
+
+## LOW
+
+### 12. `doclite/db.go`, `doclite/files.go` — Uses deprecated `os.SEEK_SET` constant
+
+- **Severity:** LOW
+- **Files:** `doclite/db.go`, `doclite/files.go`
+- **Issue:** `os.SEEK_SET` has been deprecated since Go 1.9 in favor of `io.SeekStart`. While still functional, this generates compiler warnings and may break in future Go versions.
+- **Fix:** Replace all occurrences of `os.SEEK_SET` with `io.SeekStart`.
+
+### 13. `doclite.go` — `DeleteOne` does not commit changes
+
+- **Severity:** LOW
+- **Function:** `Collection.DeleteOne(id int64)`
+- **Issue:** Unlike `Insert` which calls `defer c.Commit()`, `DeleteOne` does not call `Commit()`. Users must manually call `Commit()` after deletion, or changes may be lost if the process exits. This inconsistency is surprising and error-prone.
+- **Fix:** Either add `defer c.Commit()` to `DeleteOne` for consistency with `Insert`, or clearly document in the API that `Commit()` must be called manually after delete operations.
+
+```go
+func (c *Collection) DeleteOne(id int64) {
+    c.tree.Delete(id)
+    c.Commit()
+}
+```
