What does this PR do?

Brings 7 open pull requests together on current main. Each fixes something that main does and Bun 1.4.3 does not. Nothing is rewritten: each is the squashed diff of that pull request's head, and each description lists its own downsides.

PR What it changes
#46372 install: read the value of an alias-keyed override under the alias name
#46367 install: rebind cached package ids before the second resolve pass
#46276 install: keep an optional git, GitHub or tarball dependency on its locked package while it is read again
#46406 bun patch: keep the checkout that bun link linked into node_modules
#45697 install: make a bin that loses its .bin name executable. bunx: stop when the project's copy cannot run
#46361 pack: apply the ignore files of a bundled linked folder whose package.json does not load
#44878 Keep the bun: prefix of an import that names no builtin, in bundles and at run time

The later commits add and then take out pull requests for faults that 1.4.3 has too. The tree is the same as after the seventh commit.

Conflicts

File Between Resolution
src/install/PackageManager/install_with_manager.rs #46276 and #46367 both add a name to one use list. Both are kept
src/jsc/RuntimeTranspilerCache.rs #44878 and main main is at cache version 42, so this change is version 43

Behavior changes

PR Before After
#45697 bunx <pkg> runs the registry's copy when the project's own bin file is missing or not executable it stops: exit 126, or exit 1
#46372 "my-alias@npm:pkg@^1": "catalog:" reads the catalog entry of pkg it reads the entry of my-alias. The same for workspace:*
#44878 an unknown bun:name is looked up as name it stays bun:name

How did you verify your code works?

  • Not built locally. CI is the first build of the combination.
  • Every test of the 7 pull requests comes along.
  • Four files are touched by two of them. Outside the use list above, their hunks are in different functions, or far apart in install_with_manager().
  • No conflict markers are left, and Prettier passes on every changed file.

Closes #46372
Closes #46367
Closes #46276

Walkthrough

This PR changes bun: specifier handling, package installation and update behavior, override resolution, project binary lookup, patch-folder checks, and bundled-folder packing. It also adds HashMap::retain and updates documentation and tests for these behaviors.

Changes

bun: specifier resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Builtin lookup and import handling
src/resolve_builtins/HardcodedModule.rs, src/bundler/*, src/jsc/RuntimeTranspiler*
Recognized bun: Node builtin names resolve to builtin paths. Unrecognized names retain the prefix. The transpiler cache format version changes to 43.
Resolution coverage
test/bundler/bundler_bun.test.ts, test/cli/install/bun-add.test.ts, test/js/bun/*, test/js/node/missing-module.test.js
Tests cover unknown specifiers across bundling, runtime loading, plugins, mocks, and auto-install. Builtin cases continue to load as Node builtins.

Installer refresh and lockfile recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Refresh state and eligibility
src/install/lockfile*, src/install/PackageManager/PackageManagerEnqueue.rs, src/install/PackageManager/PackageManagerResolution.rs
Lockfile state tracks dependencies being refreshed. Eligible optional Git, GitHub, and tarball dependencies can retain their locked resolutions while their sources are read again.
Update and enqueue handling
src/install/PackageManager/install_with_manager.rs, src/install/PackageManager/processDependencyList.rs, src/install/PackageManager/runTasks.rs, src/install/PackageInstaller.rs, src/install/PackageManager/PopulatePackageCache.rs, src/install/isolated_install.rs, src/install/update_transitive.rs, src/collections/zig_hash_map.rs
Update paths rebind cached package IDs after lockfile cleanup and propagate local-tarball enqueue errors. Failed refreshes clear refreshing state. Updates can warn about retained packages not checked for updates.
Refresh and cleanup tests
test/cli/install/bun-install-retry.test.ts, test/cli/install/overrides.test.ts, docs/pm/cli/update.mdx
Tests cover unavailable sources, update selection, lockfile cleanup, and scope replanning. Documentation describes optional dependency behavior when a source cannot be fetched.

Override and alias resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Rule identity and value resolution
src/install/lockfile/OverrideMap.rs, src/install/PackageManager/PackageManagerEnqueue.rs, src/install/audit_fix.rs, src/install/dedupe.rs, docs/pm/overrides.mdx
Override processing uses the rule dependency’s name and value when resolving catalog entries and audit pins. Documentation describes override values and npm-alias selectors.
Alias override tests
test/cli/install/bun-audit.test.ts, test/cli/install/bun-install-lifecycle-scripts.test.ts, test/cli/install/nested-overrides.test.ts, test/cli/install/overrides.test.ts
Tests cover catalog and workspace values, tarball and dist-tag rules, audit fixes, lifecycle trust, migration, and lockfile behavior for alias-keyed overrides.

Project binary installation and execution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Install-time executable preparation
src/install/bin.rs, test/cli/install/bun-install-registry.test.ts
Non-Windows bin files receive executable mode and shebang normalization even when another package has claimed the destination.
Project bin lookup
src/runtime/cli/bunx_command.rs, test/cli/install/bunx.test.ts, test/cli/install/bun-install-native-binlink.test.ts, docs/pm/bunx.mdx
Project lookup distinguishes runnable, non-executable, unresolved, and absent bins. Tests cover project packages, workspaces, and install-script cases.

Package patch folder ownership

Layer / File(s) Summary
Managed-folder checks and tests
src/install/PackageManager/patchPackage.rs, test/cli/install/bun-patch.test.ts
Patch operations identify project-managed folders and eligible links. Tests cover linked checkouts, refused paths, and nested project packages.

Bundled linked-folder packing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Manifest-aware and directory packing
src/runtime/cli/pack_command.rs, test/cli/install/bun-pack.test.ts
Bundled folders are packed using manifest metadata when available and directory handling when it is not. Tests cover manifest and ignore-file cases.

Beyond the inline finding on the UDP IP_RECVERR removal, I also checked that the console rewrite (#45571) does not change Bun.inspect("str") or single-argument console.log("str") quoting: the len == 1 fast path in format2 still routes a lone string through print_string with quote_strings intact, so only the multi-argument path now treats the first primitive string as the format string. The bunx exit-126/exit-1 change and the Windows per-thread stack reserve change are intentional behavior changes already called out in the description, not regressions.

Extended reasoning...

This PR squashes 16 independent fixes into one 106-file, ~7k-line diff spanning the installer, bunx, pack, the bundler's bun: prefix handling, node:http, util.inspect, console formatting, usockets UDP, and Windows thread stack sizes. The only security-adjacent surface is the --ca/--cafile SSL_CTX construction moving to the main thread, which was not flagged. One confirmed finding (the IP_RECVERR removal breaking the quic ASAN leak test premise) is posted inline; this note records the console-quoting concern I verified as not a regression via the single-argument fast path in src/jsc/ConsoleObject.rs.

Run the independent install cases concurrently.

Each .each case uses its own temporary project, cache, and temp directory. The cases do not share mutable test state. Use test.concurrent or describe.concurrent so the six installs can run in parallel.

Make the new bundled-linked-folder tests concurrent.

Every test in this describe creates its own tempDir and spawns its own bun process. The tests share no state, so they can run concurrently. Use describe.concurrent (or test.concurrent.each) in place of the sequential describe and test.each forms. This also covers the bun install and dry-run cases.

As per path instructions: "Prefer concurrent tests over sequential tests: When multiple tests in the same file spawn processes or write files, make them concurrent with test.concurrent or describe.concurrent".

### What does this PR do?

For a package on `nativeDependencies` or on the built-in list, `bun
install` links `node_modules/.bin/<name>` into the platform package. It
also skips the install script that replaces the package's own bin file.
`bunx` used that link only when the package's own file was not
executable (#46455). When the file is executable, as in the tarball of
esbuild, `bunx` ran that stub.

The lookup that makes this choice, `find_in_project`, was added after
1.4.3.

A platform package here is one of the package's `optionalDependencies`
that has an `os` and a `cpu`. `bun install` links a bin into no other
package.

With the package installed in the project, on macOS and Linux:

| Command | `.bin/<name>` is in | Own bin file | Before | After |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `bunx <pkg>`, bin name differs from the package name | a platform
package | `0755` | stub | platform binary |
| `bunx -p <pkg> <bin>` | a platform package | `0755` | stub | platform
binary |
| both of the above | a platform package | `0644` | platform binary |
platform binary |
| both of the above, `node_modules` is a link to a folder of another
name, hoisted linker | a platform package | `0755` | stub | platform
binary |
| the same | a platform package | `0644` | `is not executable`, exit
code 126 | platform binary |
| both of the above | an optional dependency without `os` and `cpu` |
`0755` | own file | own file |
| both of the above | an unrelated package | `0755` | own file | own
file |
| `bunx <pkg>`, bin has the name of the package | any | any |
`.bin/<name>` | `.bin/<name>` |

The fix is the `is_in_platform_package` check in `find_in_project`. It
now runs before the package's own file is considered. It finds the
optional dependency by its name in the real path of the link, not by the
text `/node_modules/`.

Windows is not affected. There `bunx` returns the `.bin` shim before
this code.

### Behavior changes

| `.bin/<name>` is in | Own bin file | Before | After |
|---|---|---|---|
| a platform package | links out of the package | `bunx` goes on to its
own cache | `bunx` runs `.bin/<name>` |
| an optional dependency without `os` and `cpu` | not executable |
`bunx` runs `.bin/<name>` | `is not executable`, exit code 126 |

### How did you verify your code works?

- `bunx runs the platform-specific bin with linker <linker> and
node_modules <layout>` in `bun-install-native-binlink.test.ts` runs with
the stub at `0644` and `0755`, for both linkers, with `node_modules` a
folder and a link. Without this change the `0755` runs fail with `ERROR:
Using main package bin` and exit code 1.
- `after an install, a package whose optional dependency got the entry
in .bin` in `bunx.test.ts` is new. It covers the own file at `0755` and
at `0644`.
- I made the layouts of the link and of the optional dependency by hand
too. They gave the "Before" results above on a build without the fix for
them.
- Both files passed on macOS arm64 at the first commit. After that I ran
only these tests and their neighbors. The rest, and Linux, are left to
CI.
