I reviewed this PR across four iterations and the last round found no further issues; all prior findings are addressed and resolved. Because it changes RequestContext refcounting across every termination path and adds a non-GC-visited JSValue field cleared during sweep, a human look at the lifetime invariants would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- Ref balance: each
create_promise_cellref is released exactly once via a settle reaction,reclaim_promise_cell, or the deferred destructor task; settle reactions clearpromise_cellbefore anyend*()runs so the reclaim inside them is a no-op. - The at-most-one-cell invariant (debug-asserted) — traced handler → pump → flush → error-handler ordering; each prior cell is
take()n and the field cleared before the nextcreate_promise_cell. on_abortordering: reclaim runs afterend_request_streamingin both branches so aUsed(textStream) body is rejected viarequest_body_readable_stream_refbeforefinalize_without_deinitdrops it.clear_remembered_cellduring GC sweep is a plainCell<JSValue>write on a context the unreleased claim keeps alive; no JSC heap access.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Adds a promise_cell: Cell<JSValue> field to RequestContext that remembers the live NativePromiseContext cell holding one ref on the context. Introduces create_promise_cell (wraps the four existing ref_() + NativePromiseContext::create sites), reclaim_promise_cell (takes the cell's stored pointer and derefs), and promise_cell_collected (clears the field from the cell's C++ destructor during GC sweep). reclaim_promise_cell is called from on_abort (both sink and non-sink branches, ordered after end_request_streaming), end, end_stream, end_without_body, force_close, end_already_responded_stream, and the WebSocket upgrade path in server_body.rs. The sink branch of on_abort now also calls end_request_streaming so a Used body is rejected before its stream ref is dropped. Six new tests cover abort with a held resolve, three body-consumption modes under a parked direct-stream pull, async upgrade with a parked handler promise, and a 413 with a parked handler promise.
Security risks
None identified. This is a resource-lifetime fix with no input parsing, auth, or data-exposure surface. The main risk class is memory safety (double-deref, use-after-free of the JSValue cell, or a dangling promise_cell read), not security in the auth/injection sense.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is refcounting on RequestContext — the pool-backed, ref-counted core of Bun.serve — across every termination path, plus a deliberately non-GC-visited JSValue field whose liveness relies on the promise reaction rooting the cell and whose destructor writes into a native struct during GC sweep. REVIEW.md calls native memory safety the most-blocked category. The at-most-one-outstanding-cell invariant is only debug_asserted; in release a violation would silently overwrite the field and orphan a ref. The PR description walks through why each cell is taken before the next is created (handler → pump → flush → error), and I traced those transitions, but this is exactly the kind of invariant a maintainer familiar with the streaming pump/flush lifecycle should confirm.
Other factors
The PR has been through four automated review rounds on this thread; each raised concrete issues (missing upgrade reclaim, sink-branch not ending request streaming for Used bodies, dead any_js_calls wrapper, test dedup, cleanup-after-assertions, stale comments) and each was fixed with a follow-up commit and a regression test where applicable. The evidence log shows all six new tests fail on the unfixed debug build and pass on both debug+ASAN and release with the fix. The author also ran the broader serve/stream/abort/websocket/worker/html-rewriter suites and enumerated pre-existing failures that reproduce on baseline. Given the breadth of termination paths touched and the GC-sweep interaction, I'm deferring rather than auto-approving.
…wn tests Three tests. A fetch() abort while a direct stream's pull() is parked on a resolver that user state holds, followed by a release of the resolvers: the late settle is a no-op and pendingRequests stays at 0. And the two stop() orderings where the server is stopped and collected before the parked pull() is released. All three fail without the teardown at abort (pendingRequests stays at the parked count) and pass with it.
|
Pushed 1307ddd. It adds the three parked pull() scenarios from #36567 to the test file:
All three fail on stock bun (pendingRequests stays at the parked count) and pass on this branch. The added tests ran 10 times each on a debug build with no failure. One timing note for the reviewer. The count reaches 0 when on_abort returns. A microtask that the abort event itself queues still reads 1. An ordinary aborted streaming response has the same timing on main today. The added tests poll on later macrotasks, without GC. #36567 is closed. This change covers its case without the counter offset. |

I reviewed this PR across several rounds and the current revision has no new findings from me — all earlier comments (ordering vs. is_dead_request, upgrade reclaim, dead any_js_calls wrapper, test dedup, try/finally cleanup) have been addressed. Because this changes refcount lifecycle across every RequestContext termination path and adds a GC-sweep write into a native struct, a human look is still worthwhile.

Extended reasoning...
Overview
Adds a promise_cell: Cell<JSValue> field to RequestContext remembering the live NativePromiseContext cell, and a reclaim_promise_cell() that take()s and derefs it. Every termination path now reclaims: on_abort (both sink and non-sink branches, ordered after end_request_streaming), end, end_stream, end_without_body, end_already_responded_stream, force_close, and the WebSocket upgrade in server_body.rs. The four ref_() + NativePromiseContext::create() call sites are folded into create_promise_cell(). The cell's C++ destructor now calls back to promise_cell_collected() (a plain Cell write) so the field never dangles across a sweep. The sink branch of on_abort additionally calls end_request_streaming() so a Used body (textStream()) is rejected before finalize_without_deinit drops the stream ref. ~250 lines of new tests cover abort-with-held-resolve, three body-consumption modes under a parked pull(), async upgrade, chunked 413, and late-settle-after-server-teardown.
Security risks
None identified. This is lifecycle/resource management inside the server; no new user-controlled data reaches parsing, allocation sizing, or auth. The change strictly tightens teardown (releases earlier than before).
Level of scrutiny
High. This is refcount lifecycle in Bun.serve's hot request path, with a new GC-sweep → native-field-write interaction and a deref() added to six termination paths. An imbalance here is a UAF or a leak in production servers. The PR's own history shows how easy it is to get the ordering wrong: an earlier revision reclaimed before is_dead_request and hung parked textStream() reads. The at-most-one-cell-outstanding invariant is asserted only in debug builds; a violation in release would silently leak one ref (the original bug, scoped to that one cell), not corrupt memory, but it depends on the stated sequencing of handler → pump → flush → error-handler cells holding.
Other factors
The bug-hunting system found nothing on the current revision. All prior inline comments (mine, CodeRabbit's, and the comment-cop bot's) are resolved with corresponding fix commits. The evidence block shows the six new tests fail on unfixed debug+ASAN and pass on the PR build (release and ASAN). The PR description enumerates the pre-existing suite failures reproduced on baseline. Given the GC/refcount subtlety and that the fix landed only after a real ordering regression was caught in review, I'm deferring rather than approving.

Is there a way to write the test without Bun.sleep, without timers, and by waiting on a condition instead? Such as a FinalizationRegistry on the returned Promise?

Done in fa4a83e. The file now has no
A FinalizationRegistry on the handler promise cannot fire in these tests by design: the held resolve keeps the promise reachable so that GC can never be the thing that frees the context. The GC-collection path (promise dropped, cell destructor releases the ref) is still covered by the existing subprocess fixture test. The one remaining |

I reviewed this PR across several rounds and the current revision (fa4a83e) has no outstanding findings — all earlier inline comments are addressed. Because the change adds refcount manipulation to every RequestContext termination path, stores a non-GC-visited JSValue whose lifetime is guarded by a sweep-time destructor write, and reorders on_abort's sink branch, a human look at the memory-safety invariants would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- Refcount balance: each
create_promise_cellcall site's claim is released exactly once via settle-reactiontake()orreclaim_promise_cell(); the debug assert enforces at-most-one outstanding claim, and the PR notes trace the handler→pump→flush→error-handler cell handoff. promise_celldangling: the field is cleared in every settle reaction, inreclaim_promise_cell, and by the cell's C++ destructor viaclear_remembered_cellduring sweep — the unreleased claim keeps the context alive through that write.- Reentrancy at reclaim sites: every
reclaim_promise_cell()call runs while a separate ref is held (_ref/pinnedinon_abort, the base ref beforederef()inend_already_responded_streamandon_upgrade, liverespin theend*family). - Test hygiene: no timers/sleeps remain; teardown waits on
server.stop(); clients close infinally; the three body-consumer variants are onetest.each.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR fixes a RequestContext leak in Bun.serve: when a handler returns a never-settling promise (or a direct stream parks in pull()), the NativePromiseContext cell's ref pins the context until GC collects the promise, and at VM teardown that deref is skipped entirely. The fix has each context remember its outstanding cell in a new promise_cell: Cell<JSValue> field and reclaim the cell's ref eagerly at every termination path (on_abort both branches, end/end_stream/end_without_body/force_close/end_already_responded_stream, and WebSocket on_upgrade). It also adds end_request_streaming() to on_abort's sink branch so a Used body's parked read is rejected before finalize_without_deinit drops the stream ref that carries the rejection. Four files touched; ~120 native lines and ~370 test lines.
Security risks
None identified. This is lifecycle/refcount management on server-side request contexts; no parsing of untrusted input, no auth or permission surface. The relevant risk class is memory safety (double-deref, UAF via a dangling JSValue, or a missed reclaim leaving the leak in place on some path), not a security boundary.
Level of scrutiny
High. This lands squarely in REVIEW.md's most-blocked category (native memory safety): it adds a deref() at seven termination sites, stores a raw JSValue in a field that is deliberately not GC-visited (relying on the promise reaction to root the cell and on the cell's destructor to clear the field before it can dangle), and writes to a Rust struct from inside JSC's sweep phase. Each of those invariants is documented and the tests exercise late-settle-after-teardown for abort, upgrade, 413, and the parked-pull() pump promise, but the correctness argument spans GC timing, refcount ordering, and the interaction with is_dead_request/finalize_without_deinit. That is not something an automated pass should sign off on alone.
Other factors
- The PR has been through seven rounds of automated inline review on this thread; every comment is resolved, and the last two commits (1307ddd, fa4a83e) are test-only refinements (adding the #36567 scenarios and replacing sleep-polling with condition awaits).
- Test coverage is strong: nine new tests, verified fail-before/pass-after on both ASAN-debug and release builds per the gate evidence, plus the existing serve/body/websocket/worker suites re-run.
- No human reviewer has weighed in yet. Given the subtlety of the
promise_celllifetime contract (not GC-visited; cleared during sweep; at-most-one-outstanding asserted only in debug) and the number of reclaim call sites, a maintainer should confirm the design before merge.
…ghten its assertions The streaming 413 fixture waited for pendingRequests to reach 1. Since #39743 the 413 path frees the context at once, so that wait never ended and each case spun through 100 rounds of Bun.gc(true) plus a 10ms sleep. The fixture keeps its child process (the late settle was a heap-use-after-free before #30077) but now waits for the client socket to close, which is after uSockets freed the server socket, and prints one JSON line per case. The abort-loop fixture was leak-only, so it moves in-process, including the http2 variant from #40137. It holds every parked promise, so GC cannot free a context and server.stop() resolves only if each abort did. On bun 1.4.0, which predates #39743, the test times out. Every test owns its server or child, so all 17 run as test.concurrent. The per-test timeouts are gone. Assertions check values: the full 413 response, the body rejection message, pendingRequests 0 and no error() call after a late settle, the exact AbortError, the WebSocket event order, and toEqual on each child's output. Debug build under the same load: 17.0s to 5.4s.
… mid-stream (#41080) ### Problem - A client disconnect from a streaming `Response` leaves its body holding a strong GC ref on the `ReadableStream`. hono's `streamSSE` maps that stream back to its `Context`, which holds the `Response`, so the ref closes a cycle through a GC root: every SSE disconnect leaks the `Response`, the `Request`, the stream, and the handler closure. bun 1.4.0 is clean; every canary since #39743 (2026-08-20) leaks. - Cause: `on_abort` reclaims the stream pump's promise cell and frees the context (`RequestContext.rs:1516`). The pump's settle reaction then finds no context, so `handle_resolve_stream` / `handle_reject_stream` never detach the stream from the body. The `Strong` that `do_render_stream` stored there (`RequestContext.rs:2239`) is never released. ### Fix - `finalize_without_deinit` detaches the body stream from the `Response` and marks the body used, as the settle handlers do. Every context teardown goes through it. - Correct because the stream is done by then: the sink abort ran the source's `cancel()`, nothing reads it any more. Only the body's hold on it remained. - Verified: `test/js/bun/http/serve-pending-promise-abort-leak.test.ts`, 2 new tests (sync and async handler); without the fix 8 of 8 streams stay alive. Also `serve.test.ts`, `bun-server.test.ts`, and the `serve-*` stream, abort, and leak files. ### Background - A streaming `Response` is sent by a pump whose promise the context subscribes to through a `NativePromiseContext` cell. The settle handlers tear the sink down and clean the body. - #39743 made `on_abort` reclaim that cell so an aborted request is freed at abort time instead of at GC. The settle still runs later, as a no-op. - `Body::Value::Locked` holds a `readable_stream::Strong` on the stream, a GC root until the body is detached or the `Response` is collected. <details><summary>Notes</summary> Found while following up on #41011: with the SSE loops now ending promptly, the reporter's app churned reconnects faster and the growth became obvious. Measured with hono 4.12.28 and an async middleware: 600 disconnects add about 17,000 live objects (about 28 per disconnect) that survive `Bun.gc(true)`, on the canary before #41011 (a6c4cc2) and after it (2bf11c5) alike; bun 1.4.0, 1.3.14 and 1.3.0 stay flat. A heap snapshot shows the retained `ReadableStream` under a `StrongRootBlock` and the `Context` under `(GC roots)` (the ephemeron value), with `#res` and `#rawRequest` hanging off it. The minimal repro needs the stream to reach the `Response`; without that, the `Response` is collected and its body drops the `Strong`. So a plain `new Response(stream)` handler does not show it, and hono does. With a sync handler hono returns the `Response` directly and the leak did not reproduce in the hono harness, but the minimal repro leaks for both sync and async handlers. Both shapes are in the test. Known failures on this container that also fail on main: `serve.test.ts` root range port and `/bun:info` loopback, and `bun-server.test.ts` IPv6 listen. </details>
…t when pull() returns (#42957) ### Problem - Over HTTP/1.1, a direct stream whose `pull()` calls `end()` from a later microtask and then never returns keeps its request forever. `server.pendingRequests` climbs and a graceful `server.stop()` never resolves. #42844 fixed HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 only. - The cause is `readDirectStream` (`src/jsc/bindings/webcore/streams/BunStreamSource.cpp:758`). For an async `pull()`, the sink's owner got a promise that settles when `pull()` settles. A sync `pull()` got one that settles when the controller closes. - Each owner waited the same way: a `fetch()` upload and `HTMLRewriter` never finished. `bytes()` and `arrayBuffer()` wait in a different function (#42950). ### Fix - An async `pull()` now gets the same close promise. It settles at `end()`, `close()`, `close(error)`, or a peer abort. The `pull()` reactions only close a controller that `pull()` left open. - The close promise is rejected as handled. `server.stop(true)` in the microtask drain after the attach rejects it before the request subscribes. Main exits with code 1 there for a sync `pull()`. - Correct because `end()` and `close()` detach the controller first. Nothing `pull()` does later reaches the sink. - Verified: `test/js/bun/http/serve-direct-readable-stream.test.ts` (19 cases fail on main), `test/js/workerd/html-rewriter.test.js` (2). Other suites: Notes. Self-reviewed: 6 concerns raised, 6 addressed. ### Background - A direct stream (`type: "direct"`) calls `pull(controller)` once. The controller writes straight into a native sink, such as the `Bun.serve` response sink. - The sink's owner (for `Bun.serve`, the `RequestContext`) gets a promise from `assignToStream`. When it settles, the owner tears the sink down and releases itself. - `end()` and `close()` detach the controller. Then `directStreamOnClose` settles the close promise. <details><summary>Notes</summary> - Origin: a fuzz-ledger note, no user report. The shape needs a `pull()` that outlives its own `end()`. Repro, one file: ```js const server = Bun.serve({ port: 0, fetch: () => new Response(new ReadableStream({ type: "direct", async pull(c) { c.write("streamed"); await Promise.resolve(); c.end(); await new Promise(() => {}); } })) }); for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) console.log(await (await fetch(server.url)).text(), server.pendingRequests); await server.stop(); console.log("stopped", server.pendingRequests); ``` 1.4.3 and main a8e4e90: `streamed 1`, `streamed 2`, `streamed 3`, then `stop()` never resolves. This branch: `streamed 0` three times, then `stopped 0`. - The same stream shape on 1.4.3: a `fetch()` upload hangs when `end()` comes in the first tick of `pull()` or later. `HTMLRewriter.transform()` hangs when `end()` comes after an await. `text()`, `blob()`, reader loops, `Bun.write` and `Bun.spawn({ stdin })` already settle at `end()`. - Not fixed here: `consumeDirectStreamToArrayBuffer` (`BunStreamConsumers.cpp:1114`) also returns a promise derived from an async `pull()`. So `Response.bytes()`, `Response.arrayBuffer()`, `Bun.readableStreamToBytes` and `Bun.readableStreamToArrayBuffer` still wait for `pull()` to return. #42950 fixes that function. The contract matrix names those consumers in `waitsForPullToReturn` and skips only the three `pullNeverReturns` shapes for them. The PR that lands second removes that set. - Why this layer and not a notification from the sink to its `RequestContext`, which the notes of #42844 proposed. That fixes only `Bun.serve`. The sink would call its owner from inside `end_from_js(&mut self)`, and the owner frees the sink when its last ref goes, so the release needs a deferral. The close promise already is that deferred notification, and a sync `pull()` uses it today. The `on_abort` arm from #42844 stays: it covers a response that the sink ends from a native callback (`onWritable`), where HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 free the stream before the reaction runs. - What changes for an async `pull()`. A clean `end()` or `close()`: the owner resolves at the call, not when `pull()` settles. `close(error)`: the owner rejects with the error at the call. A peer abort while `pull()` is pending: the owner's promise rejects with the abort reason then, as it already did for a sync `pull()`. Before, it resolved when `pull()` settled. `Bun.serve` has reclaimed its claim by then, and `fetch()` checks its aborted flag. A `pull()` that closes the controller in its first tick: `readDirectStream` returns `undefined`, or a rejected and handled promise for `close(error)`, exactly as for a sync `pull()`. - What does not change. `pull()` that resolves without `close()`/`end()` ends the controller and then resolves the owner. `pull()` that rejects while the controller is open closes it with the reason and rejects the owner with the raw reason. An `end()` that throws in that implicit close rejects the owner. A rejection after a clean close is dropped. - Visible consequence: a graceful `stop()` no longer waits for work that `pull()` does after `end()`. The response is complete at that point, and HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 already release the request there since #42844. - Tests that pinned the old behaviour as a precondition (from #39510). "closing the connection after the request was released" and "requestIP()/timeout() after the response completed and the client left" sampled `pendingWhileParked: 1` while `pull()` was parked after `close()`. They now pin 0. "stop(true) after the response completed still releases the parked request" opened the gate before it awaited the stop. It is now "... does not wait for the parked pull()" and samples the stop with the gate shut. - `live_resp()` and `ended_response` stay. The window they guard (the sink ended the response, the context is still alive) is now one microtask checkpoint, not "until `pull()` settles". - #36567 once changed `readDirectStream` for the aborted-request case and reverted it over the abort-then-reject path. #39743 solved that case in `on_abort`. `serve-stream-reject-flush-leak.test.ts`, the test that change broke, passes here. - The new backpressure cases use one buffered write below the high water mark plus `end()` in the same tick. That makes a single `tryEnd()` of 32 MB to a client that does not read, so `end()` parks on the drain. The request then waits for the drain only. These two cases are skipped on Windows. It takes the first write of a response whole, whatever its size (probed up to 250 MB on main), so one `tryEnd()` never parks there. - Suites run on the debug ASAN build, all green except where noted: `serve-direct-readable-stream` (169), `html-rewriter` (186), `html-rewriter-leak`, `streams.test.js` (596), `serve-http2` (93), `serve-http3` (72), `serve-http2-lifecycle`, `serve-protocols`, `serve-stream-body-error`, `serve-error-handler-stream`, `serve-stream-reject-flush-leak`, `serve-pending-promise-abort-leak`, `serve-async-stream-client-abort`, `serve-response-gc-backpressure-abort`, `serve-response-stream-sink-leak`, `serve-body-leak`, `serve-reused-response`, `async-iterator-stream`, `bun-server`, `body-stream` (9086), `body.test`, `fetch-abort-stream-body`, `body-stream-excess`, `fetch-gzip`, `fetch-http3-client`, `fetch-http3-adversarial`, `spawn-stdin-readable-stream`, `spawn.test`, `node-stream`, `web-stream-state`, `s3.test`, `bun-install-streaming-extract`. `serve.test`, `fetch.test`, `fetch.stream.test`, `bun-write.test`, `streams-leak` and `AsyncLocalStorage.test` have failures in this container.

Problem
Bun.servehandler returns a promise that never settles, or a direct stream parks insidepull(), the end of the request does not free its context. TheNativePromiseContextcell's ref keeps the context parked until GC collects the promise: the pool slot, the body slot, the stream refs, the sink, andserver.pendingRequestsall stay held. At VM teardown the cell's deref is skipped on purpose, so the context is never torn down.on_abortalso returns beforeend_request_streaming, so a pending body read (request.text()ortextStream()) on a cut-off upload stays unrejected.Fix

A later settle reaction gets null fromtake()and no-ops, which the reactions already tolerate.on_abort(both branches), the end family (end,end_stream,end_without_body,force_close,end_already_responded_stream), andserver.upgrade(). The 413 path and the upgrade need this because they disarmonAborted, soon_abortcan never run after them.on_abortorders the reclaim afterend_request_streaming, and its sink branch now callsend_request_streamingitself. AUsedbody (textStream()) can only be rejected through a stream ref thatfinalize_without_deinitdrops without erroring.take(). The cell's destructor clears it during sweep, so the field never dangles.Background
NativePromiseContext(src/jsc/bindings/NativePromiseContext.h) is a GC cell that carries one native ref across a promise reaction. A settle reactiontake()s the pointer and derefs. If the promise is collected unsettled, the cell's destructor releases the ref on the next tick.RequestContextderef is not sweep-safe.server.pendingRequestscounts contexts between creation anddeinit, so each parked context kept it incremented.Related: #36567 (closed: its accounting special case is not needed with this change, and its scenarios are pinned here), #39660, #37513.
Notes
create_promise_cellasserts this in debug builds.Cell<JSValue>write on the context, which the unreleased claim keeps alive (pool slots survive teardown for exactly this case, Bun.serve: free a Worker's RequestContext pools when its VM is torn down #37513).on_abort(stream destroyed after a successfulend()) leaves the field alone: the promise settles normally there.pendingRequestsis now 0 right after the abort, with noBun.gc(true).on_abortbeforeis_dead_request. That dropped the claim's ref too early,finalize_without_deinitcleared the body stream ref without erroring it, and a parkedtextStream()read hung (body.test.ts "rejects when the client aborts mid-upload server-side"). The reclaim now runs afterend_request_streaming.for await (req.body)staysLocked, sodeinitstill rejects it throughend_request_streaming. Only aUsedbody (textStream()) needs the sink-branch call. Tests cover both.server.upgrade()while the handler promise parks with a reachable resolve. A sync upgrade has no cell, and a settled handler releases the claim throughtake().[review] gate passed · iteration 0 · 4 files touched

When a request handler or stream promise never settles, the NativePromiseContext cell created to observe it holds a reference on the request context, so an aborted request's context could only be torn down when GC collected the promise, and never at VM teardown since the deferred dereference is skipped during the sweep. This left aborted requests holding their pool slot, body, streams, sink, and a reference to the server indefinitely. The fix has the request context remember its outstanding promise cell and reclaim it, taking the cell's claim and dereferencing, on abort and every other term…
