Before795d1c289, nested rule-set evaluation reused the parent rule match cache. In practice, this meant these fields leaked across nested evaluation: - SourceAddressMatch - SourcePortMatch - DestinationAddressMatch - DestinationPortMatch - DidMatch That leak had two opposite effects. First, it made included rule-sets partially behave like the docs' "merged" semantics. For example, if an outer route rule had: rule_set = ["geosite-additional-!cn"] ip_cidr = 104.26.10.0/24 and the inline rule-set matched `domain_suffix = speedtest.net`, the inner match could set `DestinationAddressMatch = true` and the outer rule would then pass its destination-address group check. This is why some `rule_set + ip_cidr` combinations used to work. But the same leak also polluted sibling rules and sibling rule-sets. A branch could partially match one group, then fail later, and still leave that group cache set for the next branch. This broke cases such as gh-3485: with `rule_set = [test1, test2]`, `test1` could touch destination-address cache before an AdGuard `@@` exclusion made the whole branch fail, and `test2` would then run against dirty state.795d1c289fixed that by cloning metadata for nested rule-set/rule evaluation and resetting the rule match cache for each branch. That stopped sibling pollution, but it also removed the only mechanism by which a successful nested branch could affect the parent rule's grouped matching state. As a result, nested rule-sets became pure boolean sub-items against the outer rule. The previous example stopped working: the inner `domain_suffix = speedtest.net` still matched, but the outer rule no longer observed any destination-address-group success, so it fell through to `final`. This change makes the semantics explicit instead of relying on cache side effects: - `rule_set: ["a", "b"]` is OR - rules inside one rule-set are OR - each nested branch is evaluated in isolation - failed branches contribute no grouped match state - a successful branch contributes its grouped match state back to the parent rule - grouped state from different rule-sets must not be combined together to satisfy one outer rule In other words, rule-sets now behave as "OR branches whose successful group matches merge into the outer rule", which matches the documented intent without reintroducing cross-branch cache leakage.
