Draft. #46528 carries this change with another mechanism: it records the write and moves the deadline when the timer fires. This head refreshes the timer on each write. It waits for the answer to the order note.

Problem

  • A node:http server with a socket inactivity timeout cuts a response that it writes: server.setTimeout(100) with a write every 40 ms gives curl 200 of 800 bytes and (18) transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining. Node delivers all 800.
  • Only socket._unrefTimer() refreshes the timer (src/js/node/_http_server.ts:1979). No response write calls it.

Fix

  • socket.setTimeout() hands the armed Timeout to the native connection. The five write entries in NodeHTTPResponse.rs refresh it.
  • Bytes of a pending write that leave count too. uWS records them in AsyncSocketData::backlogMoved. A writable event and _onTimeout() read it.
  • Verified: test/js/node/http/node-http-server-timeouts.test.ts (38 new tests, 33 fail on main), test/js/node/http/, 164 vendored Node tests.
  • Self-reviewed: this mechanism must not ship (see above). 9 concerns about the code are open (Notes).

Background

  • Each connection has one inactivity timer, a JS setTimeout that server.timeout, keepAliveTimeout and setTimeout() arm.
  • A pending write is what the kernel did not take. uWS sends it at the next writable event, or at the start of the next write.

Downsides

  • Over https a response can be cut where Node delivers it (Notes, self-review 1).
  • +2,732 bytes of text (release). A 16-byte res.write(): +567 instructions with a timeout (1,832 to 2,399), +9 without. A keep-alive GET: +828 and +61.
  • Each uWS socket pays 3 instructions per send of pending bytes.
Notes

The repro. Run the server with bun and with node. Then run curl -sS -o /dev/null -w '%{size_download} bytes\n' http://127.0.0.1:3000/.

import http from "node:http";
const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
  let sent = 0;
  const interval = setInterval(() => {
    res.write(Buffer.alloc(100, "a"));
    if ((sent += 100) === 800) {
      clearInterval(interval);
      res.end();
    }
  }, 40);
  res.on("close", () => clearInterval(interval));
});
server.setTimeout(100); // the connection is never idle for 100 ms
server.listen(3000, "127.0.0.1");

A release build of main (2596ac5) gives curl: (18) transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining and 200 bytes (4 of 5 runs, 100 bytes in one). fetch() gets ECONNRESET: The socket connection was closed unexpectedly. Node v26.3.0 and this branch give 800 bytes. The rows below use a raw TCP client. Rows 06 and 07 pass a callback fn.

row armed with Node v26.3.0 main this branch
01 server.setTimeout(100) 800 of 800 200 of 800 800 of 800
02 server.timeout = 100 800 of 800 200 of 800 800 of 800
03 res.setTimeout(100) 800 of 800 200 of 800 800 of 800
04 req.setTimeout(100) 800 of 800 200 of 800 800 of 800
05 req.socket.setTimeout(100) 800 of 800 200 of 800 800 of 800
06 server.setTimeout(100, fn) 800, fn never runs 800, fn runs once 800, fn never runs
07 res.setTimeout(100, fn) 800, fn never runs 800, fn runs once 800, fn never runs
08 server.setTimeout(1000) 800 of 800 800 of 800 800 of 800
09 no timeout 800 of 800 800 of 800 800 of 800
10 the response stalls after 100 bytes cut at 100 cut at 100 cut at 100

Which single call restarts the timer. server.setTimeout(800), keepAliveTimeout = 0, one call 400 ms after the request. 'timeout' 800 ms after the call: counted. 400 ms after it: not counted. main counts none of the 20.

call Node v26.3.0 this branch
write('x'), write('') (first and later), write('x', cb) (first and later), end() that sends the last chunk, end('y'), flushHeaders(), writeProcessing(), writeContinue(), flushHeaders() on HEAD counted counted
writeHead() alone, end() behind a complete Content-Length body, write('x') on HEAD (first and later), write('x') on 204, a write() that throws not counted not counted
a second flushHeaders(), flushHeaders() after a write() counted not counted
write('x', cb) on HEAD not counted counted

The last two rows are not from this PR. flushHeaders() returns early once the head is out, where Node sends an empty chunk to the socket. write(chunk, cb) on a HEAD response sends the head at that call, where Node holds it until end().

Where the timer is refreshed.

  • A write that the server starts: write_or_end, flush_headers (the call that sends the head), write_continue, write_informational and write_whole_response in NodeHTTPResponse.rs. A write behind one that is still pending does not refresh. Node queues such a write and does not call _writeGeneric for it (net.js#L1019).
  • Bytes of a pending write that leave at a writable event: HttpContext::onWritable (the node:http instantiation only) refreshes when backlogMoved is set, by its own flush or by a write() before it. The zero-copy tail in NodeHTTPResponse::on_drain and the tunnel buffer in JSNodeHTTPServerSocket::onDrain refresh too. Node does this in onWriteComplete (stream_base_commons.js#L101).
  • Bytes of a pending write that leave inside a later write() call: AsyncSocket::write() sends what is pending before its own bytes. That send and the one in flush() set backlogMoved. HttpResponse::spillBodyTail sets it for a zero-copy tail that it sends directly. A handler that writes again and again without a wait for 'drain', to a reader that is slow, gets no writable event from the kernel for a long time: Linux reports one only when a third of the send buffer is free. Then only the record shows that bytes left.
  • The state bit HTTP_NODE_TRACKS_ACTIVITY is set while the connection holds a timer. It is connection-scoped, like HTTP_NODE_HALF_CLOSED, so a new response on the connection keeps it.

When the timer fires. _onTimeout() asks holdTimeoutBackOnce(pending), where Node compares the write queue size with the one of the last expiry (net.js#L596-L611).

  • It holds 'timeout' back when bytes of a pending write left since the last refresh or the last expiry. It also holds it back at the first expiry that finds a write pending. So a period without progress ends in 'timeout' at the second expiry.
  • Over https the TLS layer takes a batch of records and keeps the ciphertext that the kernel does not take (us_socket_ssl_spill_pending). The server then holds no byte of the write. The expiry counts that ciphertext as a pending write, and a changed size as progress. A refresh of the timer and a hand-over take the size again.
  • _onTimeout() emits nothing for a connection that has closed natively and whose 'close' is not out yet. That holds under the keep-alive timeout too. main emits 'timeout' there.

Against Node, with a write pending. Timeout 400 ms. SO_SNDBUF 64 KB at the server (under Node the listening socket is inherited with it). The reader is a python client with SO_RCVBUF 16 KB that takes 4 KB every 2 ms. 3 s a run, 10 runs a shape, release builds. The table counts the runs with a 'timeout'.

what the handler writes Node v26.3.0 main this branch
16 KB every 5 ms, no wait for 'drain' 0 of 10 10 of 10, at 400 ms 0 of 10
64 KB every 10 ms, no wait for 'drain' 0 of 10 10 of 10 0 of 10
one 64 MiB write, then 12 bytes every 50 ms 0 of 10 10 of 10 0 of 10
16 KB every 5 ms over https 10 of 10, at 2.1 to 2.9 s 10 of 10 0 of 10
scenario Node v26.3.0 this branch
the peer never reads, one 64 MiB write, then a ping every T/8, T = 300 ms 'timeout' at 602 to 604 ms 600 to 602 ms
the same, and socket.setTimeout(300) is called when the write is pending 602 ms behind the call 602 ms
16 KB every 5 ms for 700 ms, then nothing, the response stays open: 'timeout' behind the last write call, 8 runs 736 to 855 ms, one run 1,515 727 to 943 ms, one run 1,147

In the last row main emits 'timeout' 0 to 5 ms behind the last write, and 680 to 848 KB of 992 to 1,248 KB arrive.

The keep-alive timer. onResponseFinishHandleSocket takes back a timer that the request had armed (socket.timeout !== 0) and sets kKeepAliveTimeoutSet before it arms the keep-alive timeout. setTimeout() hands a timer over only outside the keep-alive state, and _onTimeout() does not call holdTimeoutBackOnce() under it. The keep-alive arm no longer trusts the timer of an armed timeout with the same interval: that timer can have fired with a 'timeout' listener that kept the socket. On main the idle connection then stays open for good (server.timeout equal to keepAliveTimeout + keepAliveTimeoutBuffer, first 'timeout' survived, then res.end()). Node closes it one keep-alive timeout later, and so does this branch. The two own keys @keepAliveTimeoutSet and @socketTimeoutTimer now appear in the other order on a socket of a server without a timeout. The two .expected.txt files record that, and nothing else changed in them. For the same reason a server socket that a program froze after the answer now throws its first TypeError in onResponseFinishHandleSocket, where that key is written, and no longer in setTimeout().

Second text. src/js/ahead-of-time/node/_http_server.ts has the same change, for bun build --compile --aot. The guard of its fast road in finishExchange has the second case in which finishConnection calls setTimeout(): an armed timeout. The repro built that way prints 800 of 800 bytes. test/internal/second-texts-of-modules.test.ts passes. test/aot/parallel/node-http/objects-closed-proxies-without-traps.ts prints which function throws on a frozen server socket: 17 rows of its stored output now name onResponseFinishHandleSocket (see "The keep-alive timer").

Measurements. Release builds of main (2596ac5) and of this branch, --lto=off --rust-lto=off. Instructions are those of the main thread in user space, read with perf_event_open in the process between request 20,000 and 120,000 (write 200,000 and 1,200,000), the median of 3 runs. Runs of one build differ by up to 120 for a GET and by 3 for a write.

what main this branch
size: text 131,826,030 131,828,762 (+2,732)
size: data, bss 677,952 and 1,862,160 the same
sizeof(AsyncSocketData), sizeof(HttpResponseData) of a node:http connection, sizeof(WebSocketData) 48, 280, 152 the same
sizeof(JSNodeHTTPServerSocket), and its GC cell 208, cell 208 208, cell 208
AsyncSocket::write() and flush(), instructions +3 at each send of pending bytes (testl, setg, orb), no branch, nothing without pending bytes
host functions on the connection prototype 31 33
keep-alive GET, no timeout: instructions 21,170 21,231 (+61)
keep-alive GET, server.setTimeout(120000) 24,783 25,611 (+828)
res.write() of 16 bytes, no timeout 1,833 1,841 (+9)
res.write() of 16 bytes, server.setTimeout(120000) 1,832 2,399 (+567)
holdTimeoutBackOnce() calls at an expiry of the keep-alive timer 0 0
holdTimeoutBackOnce() calls at an expiry of an armed timeout 0 1
reads of handle.closed in _onTimeout() at an expiry 0 1

The new fields of JSNodeHTTPServerSocket (m_inactivityTimer, lastTLSSpill, one flag bit) fit because m_pipelinedResponsesLock moved into padding.

CPU time, process.cpuUsage() of the server process, pinned to one core, client in a process of its own, 15 rounds of main, branch, main. The delta is the median over the rounds of the branch run minus the mean of its two main runs. The noise is the median difference of those two main runs.

what main this branch delta noise
1,000,000 res.write() of 16 bytes, no timeout, per write 0.2017 µs 0.2047 µs +0.0022 0.0055
the same with server.setTimeout(120000) 0.2064 µs 0.2577 µs +0.0521 0.0093
100,000 keep-alive GETs, no timeout, per request 10.81 µs 11.18 µs +0.31 0.22
the same with server.setTimeout(120000) 11.69 µs 11.91 µs +0.14 0.37

The third row is above its noise, and 61 instructions do not explain 0.3 µs. A build of main with 768 bytes of code that nothing calls measured +0.14 µs in the same A/B, so a part of it is where the linker puts the code.

Other designs. A review compared these before this head was written.

design why not
send pending bytes only at writable events while a timeout is armed, as Node does every later write is copied into the buffer until the event loop turns: a burst of 128 MiB in one turn arrives 2.2 times later
compare a byte count in JS when the timer fires it does not see a pending write that a later call completed, and it compares framed bytes with body bytes
refresh at the Rust write entry when the buffer shrank it reaches one of six kinds of write entry, and adds a send to each write
mark a short send in uSockets every socket kind writes a bit that only node:http reads, and whole sends are missed
a time stamp at each JS write site that is read when the timer fires (the first version of this PR) this is the mechanism of #46528. This PR left it for the native path, which the self-review below rejects

Differences from Node that stay.

  • A repeated flushHeaders() does not count, and res.write(chunk, cb) on a HEAD response does (see the table of calls).
  • Over https Node emits 'timeout' for a slow reader where this branch emits none (10 of 10 runs against 0 of 10). Here every change of what the TLS layer holds counts.
  • Bytes that a later write() sends are counted at the next writable event. When the kernel reports none, because the peer stopped reading, they are counted at the next expiry. 'timeout' then comes up to one period later than in Node.
  • Over https, ciphertext of a write that leaves completely inside one period is not counted, so 'timeout' can come sooner than in Node (self-review 1).
  • socket.write() on a tunnel (CONNECT, upgrade) refreshes on every call, as on main.
  • A user-patched socket._unrefTimer is not called for response writes. It is not called for them on main either.

Self-review. A review of head a79f34f says that the change is wanted and that this mechanism must not ship. #46528 has the rule as a record that is read when the timer fires, and none of the native parts of this head exist on that branch. On a release build of its head (edb9ce8), 35 of the 38 new tests of this PR pass unchanged, and the repro prints 800 of 800 bytes. The three tests that fail there are in the order note. The review also found these in the code of this head. None is fixed:

  1. Over https the expiry compares two samples of what the TLS layer holds. Ciphertext of a write that leaves completely inside one period is never counted. With server.timeout = 400, socket buffers of 4 KB, four res.write() of 100 KB 600 ms apart and a reader that takes 4 KB every 10 ms, https emits 'timeout' at 401 to 416 ms in 10 of 10 runs. http completes, and so does Node over https.
  2. A refresh at a partial flush arms a timer again that has fired. After a 'timeout' that a listener survived, this head emits 'timeout' once per stall of the same write. Node and main emit one.
  3. The first expiry is held back whenever a write is pending. Node holds it back only when the kernel took a part of that write.
  4. The https side of the write entries has no test.
  5. The second text (--aot) has no test of its own: four one-line changes of it pass every program.
  6. Seven clauses of the native change can each be removed with all 54 tests green.
  7. The tests of a pending write never ran on Windows, and the reason that the comment gives for the skip was not observed.
  8. No test forces a collection while the native connection holds the Timeout.
  9. spillBodyTail() records progress for a tail that it only copied into the cork buffer.

The gate block below is from the first version of this PR (2 files).

Tests. The file has 54 tests, 38 of them new. 33 of the new ones fail on a release build of main. The other 5 pass there by design: they guard against a fix that counts a call that puts nothing on the connection (writeHead(), end() behind a complete body, writes to a HEAD response, to a 204 response, and writes that throw). The timing checks are one-sided or compare against a reference timer in the same timer heap, so a slow machine cannot change their result. The tests of a pending write set small kernel buffers (setSocketOptions of bun:internal-for-testing) and are skipped on Windows, where the kernel takes a whole body at once. The test of the TLS layer runs over a Unix socket, whose send buffer is all that the kernel holds, behind a relay that takes the ciphertext at an exact pace. Each new test waits for its server to close, so no connection is left to the exit of the process. The file takes 10.3 s on a release build.

Related. #46528 (open) lists this change as "#43753, in part". Its _http_server.ts has the mechanism of the first version of this PR, on a req.socket that is a plain net.Socket there. #43744 (reads that the native parser consumes without a JS callback) can use the same state bit: one refresh in HttpContext::onData. No test of Node's own suite covers a response that writes past the timeout.

Suites run on this head.

  • Release build: node-http-server-timeouts.test.ts (54 pass, 12 runs, 6 of them under CPU load). All of test/js/node/http/ in one process: 1,540 pass, 4 fail. One is node-http-inspect-response.test.ts, which fails only when the whole directory runs in one process, on main too. Three are rows of probes/node-http-probes.test.ts that take longer than the 5 s test timeout on this machine: alone the file fails 7 rows here and 13 on a release build of main. 164 vendored Node tests pass (test-http-*timeout*, test-http-keep-alive*, test-https-*timeout*, test-http-server-*, test-http-outgoing-*, test-http-pipeline*, test-http-upgrade*, test-http-connect*, test-http-write*, test-http-flush*, test-http-response-*, test-http-head-*, test-http-chunk*, test-http-1.0*). serve.test.ts, bun-server.test.ts, fetch-backpressure.test.ts, node-http-backpressure.test.ts and node-http.test.ts give the same counts as a release build of main.
  • Debug build (ASAN): node-http-server-timeouts.test.ts (54 pass), also 5 runs with LeakSanitizer as the ASAN lane runs it. test/internal/second-texts-of-modules.test.ts. Two programs of test/aot/parallel/node-http (a-keep-alive-timeout-of-minus-one.cjs, objects-closed-proxies-without-traps.ts).
  • Not run here: macOS and Windows. In CI build 139410 (a79f34f) the file passed on the seven Linux lanes, both Windows lanes and darwin aarch64. darwin x64 did not run.

Earlier versions of this PR. The first version recorded performance.now() at each JS write site and moved _idleStart of the timer at expiry. It did not see a drain. The second (4a922e7) moved the refresh into the native write path and refreshed at each drain of the event loop. It did not see the bytes that a later write() sends, so a handler that does not wait for 'drain' still got 'timeout' with a slow reader (30 of 40 runs of the first table). b41aca6 added the record, and ed93ca2 the read at a writable event. a79f34f changes a test only.

…y timeout

A write on a ServerResponse goes through the native response handle and
never reached the socket's inactivity timer, so server.timeout,
req.setTimeout(), res.setTimeout() and socket.setTimeout() fired in the
middle of a response that was still streaming.

Record when a response last wrote to the connection and let the timer
expiry move its deadline to that write. A write after a 'timeout' that
kept the socket open starts the timer again, like timer.refresh() does
in Node.js.
…d writes

A write to a response without a body (HEAD, 204, 304) never reaches the
socket in Node.js, so it is no activity for the inactivity timeout.

The tests now pin the exact deadline with a reference timer, cover
socket.setTimeout(), and cover a handler that keeps writing to a HEAD
response.

Status: draft. #46528 carries this change with another mechanism, and a review of this head says that the mechanism here must not ship. The order note on #46528 has the result of this PR's tests on that branch (35 of the 38 new tests pass) and asks which order is wanted. This PR waits for that answer.

How to reproduce. Save as repro.mjs. Run it with bun and with node.

import http from "node:http";
const server = http.createServer(async (req, res) => {
  res.writeHead(200, { "Content-Length": 800 });
  for (let i = 0; i < 8 && !res.destroyed; i++) { res.write("x".repeat(100)); await new Promise(f => setTimeout(f, 40)); }
  res.end();
});
server.setTimeout(100); // the connection is never idle for 100 ms: a write goes out every 40 ms
server.listen(0, "127.0.0.1", () => {
  http.get({ host: "127.0.0.1", port: server.address().port }, res => {
    let n = 0; const done = how => { console.log(how, n, "of 800 bytes"); process.exit(0); };
    res.on("data", c => { n += c.length; }).on("end", () => done("end,")).on("error", e => done(e.code + ","));
  });
});
runtime output
bun 1.3.13 end, 800 of 800 bytes
bun 1.4.2 ECONNRESET, 300 of 800 bytes
main (2596ac5, release build) ECONNRESET, 300 of 800 bytes
Node v26.3.0 end, 800 of 800 bytes
#46528 (edb9ce8, release build) end, 800 of 800 bytes

Walkthrough

The HTTP server connects socket inactivity timers to response activity. Native socket bindings track timers and pending-write progress. JavaScript timeout handling coordinates regular and keep-alive timers. Tests cover timeout behavior during writes, drains, and idle connections.

Changes

HTTP timeout activity

Layer / File(s) Summary
Native socket timer support
packages/bun-uws/src/HttpResponseData.h, packages/bun-uws/src/AsyncSocketData.h, packages/bun-uws/src/AsyncSocket.h, packages/bun-uws/src/HttpContext.h, packages/bun-uws/src/HttpResponse.h, src/uws_sys/Response.rs, src/js/private.d.ts, src/jsc/bindings/node/JSNodeHTTPServerSocket.*, src/jsc/bindings/node/JSNodeHTTPServerSocketPrototype.cpp, src/runtime/timer/Timer.rs
The native socket binding stores and refreshes inactivity timers and tracks pending-write progress. Connection state records when node:http activity tracking is enabled. The socket prototype exposes methods to set the timer and hold a timeout once.
JavaScript timeout orchestration
src/js/node/_http_server.ts, src/js/ahead-of-time/node/_http_server.ts, test/js/node/http/node-http-own-keys-through-an-exchange.expected.txt, test/js/node/http/node-http-own-values-through-an-exchange.expected.txt, test/aot/parallel/node-http/objects-closed-proxies-without-traps.ts
The server connects regular timeouts to the native socket timer and clears that timer when disabling the timeout. Pending writes can hold a timeout once. Keep-alive handling removes regular timers and updates timer state before rearming.
Response activity refresh and validation
src/runtime/server/NodeHTTPResponse.rs, test/js/node/http/node-http-server-timeouts.test.ts
Response writes and successful drain progress refresh the inactivity timer when activity tracking is enabled. Tests cover timeout setup, response operations, pending writes, slow drains, and keep-alive connections.

Explanation

The title "node:http: refresh the socket inactivity timer in the native write path" matches the main change. The PR makes native response writes (NodeHTTPResponse.rs and the uWS layer) refresh the node:http inactivity timer, so a server with an armed timeout no longer cuts a response it is still writing. The title is specific and concise, and it names the subsystem and the mechanism.

the inactivity timeout. A handler that retried such a write kept its

Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):

  • 🔴 src/js/node/_http_server.ts — Operators who rely on server.timeout as a slow-read guard lose it: a handler that keeps calling res.write() to a client that stopped reading is never timed out, and the uWS backpressure buffer grows without bound. write() at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:3447 stamps kLastResponseWrite before handle.write, even when the result is negative and the chunk only landed in the per-socket buffer. Fix: count a write as activity only when the transport accepted bytes (result >= 0), leaving the drain callback in allowWritesToContinue to mark progress on buffered writes; same pattern at _send (3632). Node buffers such chunks without _unrefTimer() and emits 'timeout' once writeQueueSize stops changing. [also at: src/js/node/_http_server.ts:3474 - Operators lose the stall protection server.timeout / res.setTimeout gave: a client that stops reading keeps its connection and a growing send buffer forever if the handler keeps calling res.write().]

    Why this was flagged

    A server arms server.timeout (or socket.setTimeout) and a handler streams with setInterval(() => res.write(...)) without honouring the false return value, which is how most SSE and log-tail handlers are written. The peer stops reading but keeps the TCP connection open (zero receive window, a…

    Verification: normal — acknowledged in diff: the PR description's "Downsides" line says "Servers that used server.timeout to cap a response that keeps writing lose that cap", but it frames this as Node parity; for a peer that stopped reading that bound is not accurate, because Node still emits 'timeout' there (Writable buffers writes while state.writing is set, so they never reach… | normal —…

  • 🟡 src/js/node/_http_server.ts — Handlers that ping a slow client by calling res.flushHeaders() again get 'timeout' (and by default a destroyed socket) where Node keeps the connection. The early return at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:3752 fires before noteResponseWrite at 3763 once the header block is out, so the second call records no activity. Node's flushHeaders always calls _send('') which reaches socket.write and _unrefTimer. Fix: count every flushHeaders call that Node writes through, e.g. move noteResponseWrite above the idempotency return (still gated on kHandle and not queued), so all write entry points, including repeated informational and header flushes, refresh the inactivity timer.

    Why this was flagged

    A handler with server.timeout or res.setTimeout(T) armed calls res.flushHeaders() at t0, then again at t0 + T/2 with no body write in between (a keep-alive nudge while waiting on upstream). ServerResponse.prototype.flushHeaders at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:3752 returns when headerState is already…

    Verification: nit / pre-existing — acknowledged in diff: the PR description's self-review says "A second flushHeaders() refreshes the timer in Node. Here it returns early and records nothing." and that claim is accurate. Trigger: a handler with server.timeout / socket.setTimeout armed calls res.flushHeaders() again after the header block is already out (or after any res.write) with no other write inside…

  • 🟡 src/js/node/_http_server.ts — Operators with server.timeout armed and keepAliveTimeout = 0 keep idle connections open later than Node after a fixed-length or body-less response. src/js/node/_http_server.ts:3321 stamps the write mark on every end(), even when the header block is already out, the body is not chunked and end() carries no chunk. Node's end() writes nothing to the socket in that case, so its 'timeout' fires at the last real write plus the timeout. Here it fires at end() plus the timeout. Fix: only count end() when it reaches the socket, i.e. stamp after the native writeHeadAndEnd/handle.end call at 3281/3318 and skip the stamp on the no-bytes branch at 3317; the same rule then also covers HEAD/204/304 after flushHeaders.

    Why this was flagged

    A handler sets Content-Length, calls res.write() for the whole body at t0, then calls res.end() with no chunk at t1 (after some await), with server.timeout = T and server.keepAliveTimeout = 0. ServerResponse.prototype.end at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:3321 calls noteResponseWrite(this) before any…

    Verification: nit. acknowledged in diff: the PR description's "Self-review, the 4 concerns that stay" says "res.end() always counts as a write. Node's end() does not reach the socket when the header block is out, the body is not chunked and end() brings no chunk ... The 'timeout' can then come later than in Node, by at most the time between the last write and end(), and only when no keep-alive timeout…

  • 🟣 src/js/node/_http_server.ts — pre-existing: a response whose single large res.write() is still draining to a slow client is cut by 'timeout' at server.timeout, while Node keeps waiting as long as the write makes progress. The guard in _onTimeout at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:1752 reads response.writableLength, but the native NodeHTTPResponse only exposes bufferedAmount (src/runtime/server/server.classes.ts:192), so the check is always false and the PR's write-activity tracking does not cover it (nothing stamps kLastResponseWrite while a buffered write drains without a 'drain' callback). … [also at: src/js/node/_http_server.ts:1757 - pre-existing: a server whose one large response write is still draining to a slow client gets 'timeout' at server.timeout and the default handler cuts the response, where Node waits while the write makes progress.]

    Why this was flagged

    A handler does one res.write() of several MB to a client that reads slowly, with server.timeout = 300. The write is accepted natively and buffered; no further res.write()/'drain' happens for a while, so noteResponseWrite at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:3037 is not called again. When the socket timer…

    Verification: pre-existing (acknowledged in PR description, not in the diff: "Not from this PR, and not fixed here: _onTimeout() ... reads handle.response.writableLength. The native response has bufferedAmount and no writableLength, so the check is always false" — the stated bound, 'timeout' at ~347 ms with and without the PR, is consistent with the code). Trigger: a handler issues one res.write()…

  • 🟣 src/js/node/_http_server.ts — A kept-alive connection whose idle timer was re-armed for a short remaining interval keeps that short timer through the next request; with server.timeout = 0 it then re-fires every remaining ms (:1453-1455) for the whole request, a busy timer loop during long handlers. The shortened timer is created at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:1471 with interval = previous idle-to-finish gap, and request arrival at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:714 leaves it in the slot; the new mark branch at :1482-1491 sits between these paths and only consumes the mark on a full-length timer. Fix: at request arrival with server.timeout = 0, drop or restore the timer to the keep-alive interval instead of leaving a short one to be refreshed in place.

    Why this was flagged

    Trigger: default config (server.timeout = 0, keepAliveTimeout = 5000), a client that sends requests back-to-back on one connection, then a slow handler. Response 1 finishes at E1 and arms the timer for total (src/js/node/_http_server.ts:2485). Request 2 arrives; kKeepAliveTimeoutSet is cleared and socket.timeout = 0 at src/js/node/_http_server.ts:714, timer left. Response 2 finishes at E2 and takes the fast path at :2482-2483. The timer fires at E1 + total, the keep-alive branch computes remaining = E2 - E1 (a few ms for a fast cycle) and replaces the timer with one of that interval at :1471. Request 3 arrives before it fires, socket.timeout = 0 again. When the short timer fires during request 3, the branch at :1453-1455 refreshes it in place at its short interval, so the loop wakes every few ms until response 3 finishes and :1969-1972 replaces it. The dismissal calls this pre-existing; the lines are unchanged, but this PR adds the branch at :1482-1491 in the same function without addressing the short timer, and the branch itself can refresh a remaining timer at :1488 when a stale…

    Verification: pre-existing (and small/bounded): the mechanism checks out in the code, but every line it runs through is unchanged base code and the PR's new branch is inert on this path. Trace (server.timeout = 0, keepAliveTimeout = 5000 → total = 6000): - Response N-1 finishes at E1: socket.setTimeout(total) (src/js/node/_http_server.ts:2485) arms a timer with deadline E1+total; kKeepAliveIdleStart = E1,…

Comment thread src/js/node/_http_server.ts Resolved
A client that stops reading must still be timed out while the handler
keeps calling res.write(). Only a write that the transport accepts, and
the drain of a backed-up one, count for the inactivity timeout.

performance.now is bound at load like Date.now, and the streaming tests
no longer depend on the scheduling of the machine.

Reply to the review findings that are outside the diff:

Backpressured writes counted as activity (the red one). Valid, and fixed in e45cb54. I reproduced it with a client that never reads and a handler that calls res.write(256 KB) every 50 ms with server.timeout = 300:

runtime result
Node v26.3.0 'timeout' at 1159 ms, socket destroyed
main 'timeout' at 311 ms
this PR before the fix never timed out (75 writes, all returned false)
this PR now 'timeout' at 1127 ms

noteResponseWrite() now takes the result of the native write and records nothing when it is negative, which means that the chunk only reached the backpressure buffer. _send() passes its result too. The drain callback (allowWritesToContinue) still records, like Node's onWriteComplete. New test: "a write to a peer that stopped reading does not restart the timer". It fails when the result < 0 check is removed.

A second flushHeaders(). Left as it is. It is listed in the PR notes. Node writes '' to the socket there. The case needs a handler that calls flushHeaders() again, with nothing else written inside the window.

end() without bytes. Left as it is, also listed in the notes. It can only make the 'timeout' later than in Node, by at most the time between the last write and end(), and only with keepAliveTimeout = 0.

The _onTimeout() guard that reads response.writableLength. It is on main already and it is not fixed here. The PR notes describe it with a probe. With the backpressure fix above it now also decides one more case: a writer that outruns a slow but steady reader never sees its buffer drain, so nothing records progress and 'timeout' fires. Node holds that connection while writeQueueSize changes. main cuts the same connection at the timeout, so this PR does not make it worse.

The short keep-alive timer that is refreshed during the next request. It is on main already, and the new branch does not run on that path: with server.timeout = 0 the function returns at its first check. It needs a request that arrives inside the few milliseconds of the re-armed remainder, after a full idle period. I left it alone to keep this PR to the write side.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Both points from my earlier review are addressed in e45cb54 (performance.now bound at module load; the streaming tests now measure from the last write instead of asserting event order). Beyond the inline nit, I also checked: a stale kLastResponseWrite left over from a previous request on a kept-alive socket cannot shorten the period, since it always predates the arming of the timer that fires and so sinceWrite >= socket.timeout; the result < 0 gate matches the native contract (uWS appends the whole chunk under backpressure and reports written = length, so a backed-up non-empty write returns a strictly negative number); and the _idleStart write in the expiry callback takes effect because refresh() makes the timer ACTIVE again before set_idle_start moves the heap entry. Given this changes node:http timeout semantics and manipulates the timer heap from inside the timer's own callback, a maintainer look is still worthwhile.

Extended reasoning...

The change touches src/js/node/_http_server.ts (about 50 lines: a monotonic clock binding, two socket symbols, a noteResponseWrite helper wired into every response write path, and a new re-arm branch in onSocketTimeoutTimerExpired that refreshes the timer and back-dates _idleStart) plus roughly 250 lines of timing-based tests. It touches no security-sensitive surface. The prior review's two comments were addressed by the latest commit, and the remaining inline finding is a test-ergonomics nit. Not approving because the fix changes user-visible node:http timeout behavior, relies on the timer-heap _idleStart setter from inside the timer callback, and interacts with the existing keep-alive idle-start fast path, which a maintainer familiar with that path should weigh.

Each awaited 'timeout' now races a promise that rejects on the client's
'error' or 'close', so a regression that closes the connection without a
'timeout' reports the cause and does not wait for the test timeout.

The latest commits address the points I raised earlier (bound performanceNow, one-sided timing assertions, lost(client) rejecting on error/close), and this pass found no bugs. Because the fix changes user-visible server.timeout semantics for streaming responses and adds per-write work on the hot path, a maintainer should still weigh the trade-off.

What was reviewed:

  • The refresh(); _idleStart -= sinceWrite re-arm in onSocketTimeoutTimerExpired: TimeoutObject.set_idle_start moves the heap entry to idleStart + interval on an ACTIVE timer, so the moved deadline is honored, and the branch sits after the keep-alive kKeepAliveIdleStart path so an ended response with a keep-alive timeout still expires on the keep-alive budget.
  • noteResponseWrite call sites: the result < 0 guard covers write/_send; end, flushHeaders, 1xx paths and the drain callback pass no result, and each runs only after the native call returns.
  • Stale kLastResponseWrite after a swallowed 'timeout' or a later setTimeout(0): the sinceWrite < socket.timeout check makes an old mark fall through to _onTimeout rather than silently re-arming.
Extended reasoning...

The PR touches src/js/node/_http_server.ts (53 lines) to record the time of each accepted ServerResponse write and, when the per-socket inactivity timer fires, re-arm it so the deadline becomes last write + timeout, plus a new describe block of 14 concurrent timing tests in test/js/node/http/node-http-server-timeouts.test.ts. It touches no auth, crypto, or injection surface; the sensitive part is a timer-heap manipulation (timer._idleStart -= sinceWrite inside the timer's own callback) whose native setter I confirmed reschedules an active timer. Both of my earlier inline threads were addressed by later commits (e45cb54, f276904, 670efcd) and the bug hunt ran dry, but the change deliberately alters observable server.timeout behavior for long-streaming responses and adds a performance.now() per write when a timeout is armed, which is a product/perf trade-off a maintainer should confirm rather than something I can approve outright.

The response paths of src/js/node/_http_server.ts are taken from main. The next commit replaces the write-site mechanism of this branch with a native one.
A server with a socket inactivity timeout (server.timeout,
server.setTimeout, req/res/socket.setTimeout) cut a response that it
was still writing: only socket._unrefTimer() moved the timer, and no
response write called it.

socket.setTimeout() now hands the armed Timeout to the native
connection (JSNodeHTTPServerSocket). The write entries of
NodeHTTPResponse refresh it, and so does each drain that moves bytes of
a pending write (the uWS buffer, the zero-copy tail, the tunnel
buffer). _onTimeout() holds 'timeout' back once while a write is
pending, so a peer that stops reading is timed out at the second
expiry, as in Node.

The keep-alive timer is never handed over. A server without a timeout
makes no new native call and tests one state bit per native write.

assertion, but ensure later writes cannot refresh the inactivity timer because
an earlier write remains pending.

from each data event to detect a \r\n\r\n terminator split across events, and
include the retained bytes when calculating the terminator position so header
bytes are not counted as body bytes.
- Around line 664-666: Update the timeout test around the Promise.race of
firstTimeout and lost(client) to track whether the response completes, and only
accept the timing result after confirming completion; handle legitimate
mid-stream idle timeouts separately so they do not count as completed responses.

I reviewed the rewritten version of this PR (4a922e7) and did not find any bugs, but a human look is still worthwhile: the mechanism changed completely since the last review (the native handle now holds the armed Timeout and refreshes it from the uWS/Rust/C++ write paths, instead of the JS-side noteResponseWrite()/performance.now() approach the PR description still describes), it spans uWS state bits, C++, Rust and both _http_server.ts twins, and src/js/private.d.ts falls under the *.d.ts CODEOWNERS rule.

What was reviewed:

  • The new HTTP_NODE_TRACKS_ACTIVITY bit (1<<24) and the newly mirrored HTTP_ANCIENT_REQUEST/HTTP_NO_BODY_STATUS/HTTP_CLOSE_DELIMITED values match HttpResponseData.h; m_inactivityTimer is a WriteBarrier visited in visitChildrenImpl and cleared in detach()/onUpgraded(); do_refresh runs no JS and no-ops on a cleared timer, so a stale handed-over timer is harmless.
  • The HEAD/204 res.write(chunk, callback) path: the discarded chunk is not counted (HTTP_NO_BODY_STATUS is set from the NUL-sentinel header for HEAD), and the following flushHeaders() only counts once because uWS sets HTTP_WRITE_CALLED on the first head flush.
  • One thing worth weighing: onResponseFinishHandleSocket now always goes through socket.setTimeout(total) (a refresh()) when server.timeout is armed, where the base took the no-refresh fast path when the interval already matched; it is needed for the fired-timer case the new test covers, but it is one extra timer-heap op per response for servers with server.timeout === keepAliveTimeout + buffer.
  • Not run here: the new test file and test/internal/second-texts-of-modules.test.ts (the AOT twin's recorded SHA-256 does match the evaluated file by my own hash of it).
Extended reasoning...

The latest push replaces the previous JS-timestamp design with a native one: a new connection-scoped uWS state bit, a WriteBarrier-held Timeout on JSNodeHTTPServerSocket with setInactivityTimer/holdTimeoutBackOnce prototype methods, a Bun__Timer__refreshTimeout export, note_write_dispatched calls at every NodeHTTPResponse write entry plus drain-progress hooks in HttpContext::onWritable, onDrain and the pinned-write path, and matching changes in both _http_server.ts twins. It touches no security-sensitive surface (no auth, parsing of untrusted input, or TLS logic), only timer bookkeeping for node:http server sockets. The decisive facts against approving are that the change is a cross-layer redesign landed in one commit after three earlier review rounds, the PR description no longer matches the code, and src/js/private.d.ts is covered by the *.d.ts CODEOWNERS entry; the bug hunt ran dry with no findings and my own reading found the state-bit mirror, GC rooting and lifecycle clears consistent.

…rror in the second text

- A server socket that a program has frozen throws in
  onResponseFinishHandleSocket, which writes kKeepAliveTimeoutSet before
  it arms the keep-alive timer. The stored output of
  test/aot/parallel/node-http/objects-closed-proxies-without-traps.ts
  has that in 17 rows.
- _onTimeout() reads bufferedAmount with `?? 0` in both texts of the
  module, in place of a non-null assertion behind an optional chain.
- The test of a peer that stops reading sets a 64 KB send buffer, and
  readSlowly() finds a blank line that lies across two chunks.

…activity timer fires

A write() call that finds bytes pending sends them before its own
(AsyncSocket::write). Nothing counted those bytes, so a handler that
writes without waiting for 'drain' to a slow reader got 'timeout' at the
second expiry while its bytes left.

AsyncSocket now records in AsyncSocketData::backlogMoved that bytes of
its buffer reached the kernel, in flush() and in write().
HttpResponse::spillBodyTail records the part of a zero-copy tail that it
sends directly. socket._onTimeout() asks the native connection, which
reads and clears the record: bytes that left since the last look hold
'timeout' back, and so does the first look at a pending write. For TLS
the look also counts the ciphertext that the TLS layer still holds.

_onTimeout() emits nothing for a connection that has closed natively
and whose 'close' is not out yet, and it makes no native call under the
keep-alive timeout.

flush_headers() reads the state of the response only for a head that
write_head() rendered while a timeout was armed.

The lock of the pipelined responses moves into padding of
JSNodeHTTPServerSocket, so the object is 208 bytes again, as on main.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline nits, I also checked two things on this push and ruled them out: the self.writer().unwrap() added in write_or_end (src/runtime/server/NodeHTTPResponse.rs:2234) sits behind the writer().is_none() early return at :2150 with no JS re-entry between them, and the two _http_server.ts texts carry the same _onTimeout/setTimeout/keep-alive hand-back logic (the AOT text additionally mirrors it in finishConnection and widens the finishExchange fast-path guard to match). A res.end(body) to a stalled client firing 'timeout' sooner than Node was also examined and ruled out, since holdTimeoutBackOnce grants the second period. Not run here: the new test file, and BUN_JSC_validateExceptionChecks=1 over the new native paths.

Extended reasoning...

Four inline nits are posted on this push (TLS spill staleness in holdTimeoutBackOnce, backlogMoved carried across responses, a vacuous reset test, and the handle.closed guard missing on the keep-alive branch); this note only records what else was examined and ruled out in this run. The hunt ended on max_bugs, so no approval.

Comment thread src/js/node/_http_server.ts Resolved
…et is writable again

- HttpContext::onWritable refreshes the socket inactivity timer when bytes of
  a pending write left since the last refresh, in its own flush or in a write()
  before it. An idle connection then gets 'timeout' one period behind those
  bytes, and no longer at the second expiry behind the first write.
- A refresh of the timer and a hand-over take the size of the TLS spill again,
  so ciphertext that left before them is no progress at the next expiry.
- _onTimeout() returns for a connection that has closed under the keep-alive
  timeout too.
- Tests: the test of the TLS spill runs over a Unix socket behind a relay that
  takes the ciphertext at an exact pace. The tests of a reset prove that the
  timer came due behind the close. Each new test waits for its server to close.

I reviewed the latest push (ed93ca2) and found no bugs; it addresses all four points from my previous inline comments, so those threads can be closed. Because the change spans uWS, the C++ socket binding, Rust and both JS texts, a human look is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

  • The four earlier findings against the new code: forgetWriteProgress() re-baselines lastTLSSpill on refresh and hand-over; HttpContext::onWritable now consumes backlogMoved even with nothing buffered; the handle.closed return in _onTimeout() now precedes the keep-alive branch in both _http_server.ts texts; the reset tests assert expiriesBehindTheClose: 1 so they no longer pass vacuously.
  • The AOT twin carries the matching edit and a new source hash, but I did not run test/internal/second-texts-of-modules.test.ts or the timing tests to confirm either.
Extended reasoning...

The PR makes node:http response writes and drain progress refresh an armed socket inactivity timer, adding a backlogMoved flag in uWS AsyncSocketData, a HTTP_NODE_TRACKS_ACTIVITY state bit mirrored into Response.rs, a WriteBarrier-rooted timer plus holdTimeoutBackOnce/forgetWriteProgress on JSNodeHTTPServerSocket, a Bun__Timer__refreshTimeout export, refresh calls at five write entries in NodeHTTPResponse.rs, and matching JS changes in both _http_server.ts texts with 942 lines of new tests. It touches no auth, crypto or input-parsing surface; the TLS-specific part only reads the pending spill size. The latest commit resolves every inline finding from the previous run and this run's hunt ran dry, but the change is large and crosses four languages and the uWS hot path, which is why it is deferred rather than approved.

…that stops

The test read through a client that pauses itself by a budget, and it stopped
half a period behind the first expiry of the timer. On macOS no byte left the
server between that expiry and the stop in one CI run, so 'timeout' came half
a period behind the stop. The test now takes 16 KB of the paused client from
the kernel every 20 ms, and it stops one and a half periods behind the write.

I re-reviewed the two pushes since my last pass (ed93ca2, a79f34f) and found no new bugs; the four inline nits from that pass are addressed in the code (forgetWriteProgress() re-baselines the TLS spill on refresh and hand-over, HttpContext::onWritable consumes backlogMoved even with nothing buffered, and the handle.closed return now sits ahead of the keep-alive branch in both _http_server.ts copies). Because the change spans the uWS socket layout and writable path, the C++ socket binding and the Rust write entries, a maintainer look is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

  • m_inactivityTimer: appended in visitChildrenImpl, cleared in detach() and onUpgraded(); the two new prototype methods read their argument with getObject()/toBoolean, so no user code runs under them.
  • Bun__Timer__refreshTimeout: do_refresh returns a JSValue and cannot leave a pending exception; the state bits added to uws_sys/Response.rs (1<<8, 1<<9, 1<<10, 1<<24) match HttpResponseData.h, and HTTP_NODE_TRACKS_ACTIVITY is in HTTP_CONNECTION_SCOPED.
  • Not run: the build, the new test file, and BUN_JSC_validateExceptionChecks=1; reading cannot settle how the timing-based tests behave on the debug/ASAN lane.
Extended reasoning...

The branch adds a backlogMoved flag and a connection-scoped state bit to uWS, a GC-visited inactivity-timer slot plus two JS-visible methods on JSNodeHTTPServerSocket, a Bun__Timer__refreshTimeout export, timer refreshes at the five write entries in NodeHTTPResponse.rs, matching edits in both _http_server.ts copies, and a 939-line test file. It touches no auth, crypto or input-parsing surface; the user-reachable arguments are read with non-throwing accessors. The two pushes since the last review address the four open inline threads, which were resolved only by this bot's own session, and the bug hunt ran dry. The size and the cross-layer reach (uWS header layout with a static_assert, C++ GC barriers, Rust FFI, two builtin copies) keep this from being a change a human need not look at, and no test or exception-check run was part of this review.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @packages/bun-uws/src/HttpResponse.h:
- Around line 925-928: Update the `backlogMoved` check after `Super::write` so
it is set only when bytes have actually made socket progress, not merely because
the reported buffered amount is below `bufferedBefore + data.length()`. Use the
existing reliable signal for bytes leaving the cork buffer; preserve the
inactivity timeout behavior when uncorking sends nothing.

Review comments at @src/js/ahead-of-time/node/_http_server.ts:
- Around line 4988-4989: Update the response-finish timeout check around
finishConnection so a reused connection’s socket.timeout getter is read only
once; reuse that value for the condition rather than triggering a second read.
Preserve the ordinary path’s observable read behavior and existing
short-circuiting.

Review comments at @src/jsc/bindings/node/JSNodeHTTPServerSocket.cpp:
- Around line 542-545: Update the TLS spill activity tracking around
us_socket_ssl_spill_pending so ciphertext drainage refreshes the inactivity
timer, including when spill is created and fully drained between observations.
Record drainage at the point bytes leave rather than relying only on comparing
spill snapshots, which can both be zero.
- Around line 527-529: Update the write-progress and inactivity-timer handling
near `forgetWriteProgress()` so completing a backpressured tail clears the stale
`backlogMoved` state even when no writable event follows. Ensure a later
pipelined request cannot inherit that state and delay the next inactivity
timeout, while preserving the existing behavior when a write is still buffered.

Review comments at @src/runtime/server/NodeHTTPResponse.rs:
- Around line 1037-1038: Update the header-dispatch activity tracking around
`tracks_node_activity()` and `HEAD_UNDER_INACTIVITY_TIMER` so the first dispatch
refreshes the inactivity timer even when a 204 response’s initial `res.write()`
has no callback. Preserve the existing behavior that later discarded writes do
not count as activity.

Review comments at @test/js/node/http/node-http-server-timeouts.test.ts:
- Around line 515-519: Make the reset race deterministic in the test around
resetAndDestroy and the /busy request: replace the fixed 10 ms sleep with an
observable signal that confirms /busy is ready on the server before triggering
the reset. Retain the timeout-expiry assertion.
- Around line 1335-1336: Add a TLS deadline case alongside the existing
slow-reader coverage that leaves the response open after the first body arrives
and does not call writeLast(). Measure the deadline from the final ciphertext
drain, and assert delivery still occurs when expected so the test detects
regressions in reporting that drain.

Track spilled bytes after they leave the cork buffer.

When a stalled pinned tail fits in the cork buffer, this comparison marks it as progress even if uncorking sends nothing. The marker can defer the inactivity timeout by another period. Track actual socket progress instead.

Avoid reading socket.timeout twice during response finish.

On a reused connection, a timeout getter can return zero on its first read and throw on its second. The compiled path can then throw during response finish, while the ordinary path reads it once. Preserve the ordinary path’s observable read behavior.

4989:
Update the response-finish timeout check around finishConnection so a reused
connection’s socket.timeout getter is read only once; reuse that value for the
condition rather than triggering a second read. Preserve the ordinary path’s
observable read behavior and existing short-circuiting.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr

Stale write progress can delay the inactivity timeout.

If a second response write completes a backpressured tail and no writable event follows, backlogMoved remains set. A later pipelined request refreshes the timer without clearing it. The next expiry can then be held for one extra inactivity period, even though no write remains buffered.

527 - 529:
Update the write-progress and inactivity-timer handling near
`forgetWriteProgress()` so completing a backpressured tail clears the stale
`backlogMoved` state even when no writable event follows. Ensure a later
pipelined request cannot inherit that state and delay the next inactivity
timeout, while preserving the existing behavior when a write is still buffered.

Refresh the timer when TLS spill bytes drain.

If a direct HTTPS write creates spill that drains before the first expiry, both spill observations are zero. The timeout can then fire less than one inactivity period after the last send and abort an open response. Track ciphertext drainage as activity and refresh the timer when bytes leave.

created and fully drained between observations. Record drainage at the point
bytes leave rather than relying only on comparing spill snapshots, which can
both be zero.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr

Count the first header dispatch as activity.

For a 204 response, a first res.write() without a callback can send header bytes without refreshing the inactivity timer. The connection can then time out shortly afterward. Count that initial dispatch without counting later discarded writes.

Update the header-dispatch activity tracking around `tracks_node_activity()` and
`HEAD_UNDER_INACTIVITY_TIMER` so the first dispatch refreshes the inactivity
timer even when a 204 response’s initial `res.write()` has no callback. Preserve
the existing behavior that later discarded writes do not count as activity.

Make the reset race deterministic.

If the reset is processed before /busy becomes ready, the close task can cancel the timer before it expires. The test then fails with zero expiries even when timeout handling is correct. Establish the required ordering without relying on the 10 ms sleep, while retaining the expiry assertion.

}

// The native connection says when it has closed.

Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Add a TLS deadline case that does not write after the first body.

The current test calls writeLast() after the first body arrives. That write refreshes the inactivity timer, and the deadline is measured from it. A regression that stops reporting the final ciphertext drain can still pass this assertion.

Add a case that leaves the response open and does not write after the first body. Measure the deadline from the point where the final ciphertext drains. The HTTPS slow-reader cases close the response before they check delivery. The deadline case for the last pending bytes uses HTTP and later writes. No existing test covers this path.

Test-only change

This change adds coverage only. It does not change the production drain logic.
