📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughJSON conversion now checks nesting depth, validates MessagePack values, and distinguishes conversion errors from buffer-capacity retries. Tests cover depth limits, network-input recovery, and nested records in Loki. ChangesJSON packing and recovery
Priority: ➖ Normal Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to After this change, a single record whose map uses a numeric, boolean, or null key can fail JSON formatting for its entire batch. Such records can come from forward clients or Lua filters, and those batches were previously delivered. The affected batches are retried and may eventually be dropped. The new Loki test will also fail on builds that use the system MessagePack library. Handle scalar keys and adjust the test before merging. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Preserve scalar map keys during MessagePack-to-JSON conversion.
msgpack2json now rejects every map key except STR, BIN, and EXT. Forward records and Lua filter results can preserve scalar MessagePack keys. The json_lines path returns NULL when any record conversion fails. The JSON-array path also returns NULL when conversion of the complete array fails. No per-record fallback exists.
The merge-base converter rendered scalar keys through the generic converter, such as {1:null}. Although that output was not valid JSON, this change prevents the formatted chunk from being delivered.
Keep the terminal error for container keys and malformed data. Quote scalar non-string keys before and after msgpack2json_scalar.
Suggested fix
- if (key->type != MSGPACK_OBJECT_STR && key->type != MSGPACK_OBJECT_BIN &&
- key->type != MSGPACK_OBJECT_EXT) {
+ if (key->type == MSGPACK_OBJECT_ARRAY ||
+ key->type == MSGPACK_OBJECT_MAP) {
errno = EINVAL;
ret = -1;
goto done;
}Add coverage for integer, boolean, and nil keys. Keep terminal-error coverage for container and malformed keys.

Keep this nesting below the default MessagePack stack or gate the test.
The tail JSON parser converts each record to MessagePack and immediately unpacks it. This record contains about 50 nested containers: 24 map-and-array pairs, the initial leaf map, and the outer record map. A MessagePack build with the default 32-entry stack rejects it before delivery.
The bundled build sets the stack size to 64, but system-library builds can retain the 32-entry default. Use a depth valid for that build or gate this test when the system library does not provide the larger stack.

Deeply nested MessagePack records can exhaust an output coroutine's stack during JSON serialization. Separately, exact-fit JSON buffers are rejected, and yyjson input conversion can exceed the MessagePack nesting budget. This PR combines the three complementary fixes.
The changes are rebased onto
masterin eight scoped commits, without merge or follow-up fix commits. Ugur's contributions retain his authorship, author dates, and sign-offs. The final #12313 implementation and its return-contract corrections are consolidated into code, internal-test, and integration-test commits. Source commits for #12444 are55e50783790e26af90b9bc907bc6cbaa6210e05fand3faf785fe1a67275294bd2a476c82191549e9e00; #12313 was reviewed through8d39b03b76c85c29fcfe3481a196da6058be87ba, with its merge commit excluded.There are no configuration changes. Public JSON conversion still returns a negative result for an insufficient buffer; only the private helper distinguishes buffer exhaustion from terminal errors. Exact-fit capacity succeeds. Integer, boolean, nil, and floating-point map keys are quoted as JSON string keys; container and malformed keys remain terminal errors. Output conversion truncates non-empty containers beyond 512 levels to JSON
null. Input conversion enforces the MessagePack nesting budget (64 for the bundled build, 32 for Ubuntu's system MessagePack package), retaining configured-parser fallback behavior. The converter and depth tests explicitly include the MessagePack nesting definitions so system-library builds compile. Ingestor tests use the shared strict memory-check harness.Validation on Linux, from

System-library verification uses Ubuntu 24.04's MessagePack 4.0.0 package extracted under
/tmp/fluent-bit-system-msgpack, configured withFLB_PREFER_SYSTEM_LIB_MSGPACK=On. The executable and pack tests build and link against that library. Both affected files also pass GCC and Clang syntax checks using the system-library compilation flags, without a command-line nesting-macro definition. Nine focused capacity, nesting, scalar-key, small-stack, and error-handling tests pass normally and under Valgrind with zero errors and no leaks.Known system-library test limitation: the existing
json_pack_empty_arrayfixture exceeds the system library's 32-level budget. The failure was previously reproduced with master's original converter when unpacking that fixture; it is separate from these changes. No bundled libraries were modified.The nested Loki fixture uses 14 map/array pairs, leaving room for the leaf, record map, and event envelope within the default system-library nesting limit. Both Loki scenarios also pass normally and under strict Valgrind against the system-MessagePack build:
