What does this PR do?

A module loaded with import(URL.createObjectURL(Bun.file("rel.js"))) used the path as typed for its source URL. It is now resolved against the working directory when the module loads, like a file loaded by its path.

That URL is the key of the module's source map and the base for the map's sources, its .map file and the module's import(). With a relative path:

  • The original source was looked up in the working directory, not beside the file, so the frame and the code frame named the wrong orig.ts.
  • a/rel.js and b/rel.js, each loaded as rel.js after a process.chdir(), shared one map.
  • A .map file was not found after process.chdir().
  • import("./dep") in the module resolved from the filesystem root.

Two neighbours:

  • No directory. For an in-memory blob or a plugin's virtual module, the "directory" of the source URL was used as an absolute path, which dropped a character: orig.ts was opened as /rig.ts. sources are now looked up in the working directory, which is how the frame prints them.
  • __dirname. A CommonJS blob module loaded with import() got a slice of its own blob: URL ("blo"), and a debug build aborted on a long path. It is now "", as with require().

__filename, module.id and import.meta do not change. Frames, ENOENT messages, the type: "file" export and HTMLBundle.index now show the absolute path.

Not changed: static import and require() in a blob module still resolve from the blob: key. .. is collapsed as path.resolve does.

Follow-up to #46825.

How did you verify your code works?

Eight new tests fail on a debug build of main and pass here. Reverting any one of the three source files alone fails at least one. bun bd test on inspect-error.test.js, blob.test.ts and test/js/bun/sourcemap: 569 pass. Under strace, /rig.ts and /ub/orig.ts are no longer opened. Not run on Windows.

…e source URL

`import(URL.createObjectURL(Bun.file("rel.js")))` used the path as typed for the
module's source URL. That string is the key of the module's source map, and the
base for the map's `sources`, its `.map` file and the module's `import()`.

With a relative path:
- the original source was looked up in the working directory, not beside the file
- two files with the same relative path in two working directories shared one map
- a `.map` file was not found after `process.chdir()`
- `import("./dep")` in the module resolved from the filesystem root

The path is now resolved against the working directory when the module is loaded.

Two neighbours of that:
- A module with no directory (an in-memory blob, a plugin's virtual module) had
  its source URL's "directory" used as an absolute path, which dropped the first
  character: `orig.ts` was opened as `/rig.ts`. `sources` are now looked up in
  the working directory, which is how the frame already prints them.
- A CommonJS blob module loaded with `import()` got a slice of its `blob:` URL as
  `__dirname`, as long as the file's directory. It is now `""`, as with `require()`.

Walkthrough

Blob-backed module paths and CommonJS require-map directories now use updated path resolution. Source-map lookup selects its base directory based on whether the module filename is absolute. Tests cover blob imports and source-map frames across relative paths and working-directory changes.

Changes

Module Path Resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Blob paths and CommonJS directory handling
src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs, src/jsc/bindings/JSCommonJSModule.cpp, test/js/web/fetch/blob.test.ts
Relative file-backed blob paths resolve against the top-level directory when resolution succeeds and meets the path-length limit. CommonJS dirname handling checks that the require-map key starts with the source URL directory prefix. Tests cover relative dependencies and import() and require() results for blob URLs.
Source-map lookup and frame tests
src/sourcemap/Mapping.rs, test/js/bun/util/inspect-error.test.js
Absolute module filenames use their containing directory for source-map lookup. Non-absolute filenames use the top-level directory. Tests cover inline and separate maps, working-directory changes, and frames from file-backed modules.

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

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

  • 🟡 src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs — Existing users who import() a relative Bun.file() blob of a CommonJS .js file inside a "type": "module" package get different exports after upgrading. The now-absolute path.text makes is_absolute(dir) true at src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs:4078, so read_dir_info finds the package.json and the source is tagged PackageJsonTypeModule. In createCommonJSModule that tag sets ignoreESModuleAnnotation (src/jsc/bindings/JSCommonJSModule.cpp:1609), so a module with exports.__esModule = true; exports.default = fn now gives the whole exports object as the default import where the base gave fn. Fix: either keep blob modules on the content-detected Javascript tag, or document and test the interop change for .js blobs under type: module and type: commonjs in the same PR.

    Why this was flagged

    A project with package.json "type": "module" (or any ancestor, since enclosing_package_json is used at src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs:4082) runs await import(URL.createObjectURL(Bun.file("gen/out.js"))) where out.js is a transpiled CommonJS file with an __esModule marker. On the base path.text was the relative gen/out.js, so bun_paths::is_absolute(dir) at jsc_hooks.rs:4078 was false, package_json was None, module_type was Unknown, and the module got tag Javascript. After the change blob_module_path (jsc_hooks.rs:4165-4186) returns the absolute path, the branch at jsc_hooks.rs:4078 is taken, the package's module_type == Esm yields ResolvedSourceTag::PackageJsonTypeModule (jsc_hooks.rs:2984, 3232), and createCommonJSModule sets ignoreESModuleAnnotation = true at src/jsc/bindings/JSCommonJSModule.cpp:1609. The importer's default binding is now the raw exports object instead of exports.default; property reads such as mod.default() throw TypeError.

    Verification: blob_module_path (src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs:4165-4186) now returns the absolute path for a relative Bun.file() blob. ignoreESModuleAnnotation = source.tag == ResolvedSourceTagPackageJSONTypeModule (src/jsc/bindings/JSCommonJSModule.cpp:1609), so default is the whole exports object instead of exports.default. On the base, is_absolute false, tag Javascript.

### What does this PR do?

Printing an Error could read a source-map file name that had just been
freed, and put the stale bytes in the printed stack. This fixes that bug
and makes the mistake behind it a compile error.

**The bug.** For a stack frame whose URL is not an absolute path,
`Lookup::display_source_url_if_needed` returned a string that borrowed
the map's own `sources` entry. The printer reads the Error's own `cause`
between remapping the frames and printing them. A `cause` getter that
loads the same file again replaces the map, which frees its names.
`require(URL.createObjectURL(Bun.file("rel.js")))` gives such a URL.

- AddressSanitizer build: `heap-use-after-free` under
`print_stack_trace`.
- Release 1.4.4: the frame prints as `(\^@\^VnO�\^B\^@:1:1)` instead of
`(orig.ts:1:1)`.
- `Bun.inspect`, `console.log`, `console.error` and an uncaught throw
are affected.

**The root cause.** `bun_core::String` is the owned type, but
`String::borrow_utf8`, `from_bytes` and `ascii` were safe functions that
took a `&[u8]` and dropped its lifetime. `StringView<'a>` already
existed for borrowing.

- Those three constructors are removed. Borrowing goes through
`StringView<'a>`, which derefs to `&String`.
- `String::clone` copies the bytes a view borrows. It was a bitwise
copy, so `view.clone()` and `thread_isolated_copy()` returned a dangling
string.
- `create_static_external*` take `&'static`. `create_external` is
`unsafe`. Both lose `is_latin1`: `false` read past the end of the slice,
and every caller passed `true`.
- New: `StringOrView<'a>`, a `String` field that may hold borrowed `'a`
bytes instead of a ref. It is what a C++ `BunString` slot really is. It
derefs to `&String`, drops the ref if it has one, and has no `DerefMut`.
- New: `String::from_static_bytes`, `StringView::ascii`,
`StringView::as_strings`.

**What the compiler then flagged** (112 call sites; most became a
`StringView` with no other change):

- `ZigException`, `ZigStackTrace`, `ZigStackFrame` and `Holder` get a
lifetime, and their strings are `StringOrView<'a>`. C++ fills them with
refs, the dev server fills them with slices of the request body, and
`remap_zig_exception` fills the source lines with slices of the source
text. The caller owns that text and passes `&'a mut Utf8Bytes`, so the
compiler checks that it outlives the holder.
`ZigStackTrace::from_frames` keeps its frame buffer borrowed.
- `Route`, `JSS3Error` and the npmrc test object get a lifetime.
- `ResolvedSource` and `SystemError` own their strings. C++ wraps a
borrowed ASCII string it receives by value with `createWithoutCopying`,
so those borrows could outlive the Rust frame.
- `bun bake` production moves each server chunk's bytes into the string
that JavaScriptCore loads. The chunk was aliased by a string that
JavaScriptCore keeps for the module's life, but `PerThread`, which owned
the bytes, drops before the VM.

**Cost, read from the code.** A value that ends up as a JS string is
still copied once: C++ shares an owned impl and copies a borrowed one,
so `clone_utf8` + share replaces borrow + copy (`process.argv`,
`os.homedir()`, UDP `rinfo.address`, the `fs` `SystemError`, the
inspector's bundle-failed payload). What costs more than on `main`:

- The relative arm of `display_source_url_if_needed` copies the name.
That is the fix.
- `AsyncModule` copies `source_url`. The alias it replaces dangled once
the `AsyncModule` was freed.
- `from_static_bytes` (the `bun:wrap` source, a compiled module's
bytecode origin path) makes a `WTF::ExternalStringImpl`: one more small
allocation than `createWithoutCopying`, once per module load, freed with
the string.
- `PerThread::init` boxes one more key per server chunk.
- Cloning a view copies its bytes. It was free, and dangling.

What costs less: a builtin's resolved path is `String::static_`. In the
module loader (`transferToWTFString`) a repeated import finds the atom
and allocates nothing, where `main` made a `createWithoutCopying` header
each time. The JS resolve APIs (`into_js`) copy it once, as on `main`.

**Not changed here.**
- `String::create_uninitialized_latin1` / `_utf16` return a `&'static
mut` slice that lives only as long as the string. Same kind of lie, 24
callers in hot paths, so it needs its own PR.
- A relative `Bun.file()` path behind a `blob:` URL stays the module's
source URL: #46842.

**Also in the diff.** `test/js/web/websocket/proxy-test-utils.ts`
carries the change from #46170 unmodified. It fixes a flaky
`ws-proxy.test.ts` case on Windows 2019 x64 that turned this PR's CI red
and also fails on other branches.

### How did you verify your code works?

- **The bug no longer compiles.** Putting `String::borrow_utf8(display)`
back gives E0599. `Some(StringView::borrow_utf8(display))` gives E0308,
`expected String, found StringView<'_>`. Changing the return type to
`StringView<'_>` gives a lifetime error.
- **Neither do these.** Declaring the source text after the holder that
borrows its lines: E0597. Freeing the request body before the dev server
prints its frames: E0505. Clearing the frame `Vec` while the trace
points at it: E0499.
- **No leak.** C++ stores an owned ref in source line 0 for an error
with `lineText`. 1200 inspects of an error with a fresh 1 MB `lineText`
grow RSS by 8 MB (debug build, ASAN quarantine at 1 MB).
- `a cause getter that loads the throwing file again` in
`test/js/bun/util/inspect-error.test.js` covers the four printers and
`error.stack`. It fails with `USE_SYSTEM_BUN=1 bun test` and passes with
`bun bd test` (46 pass). The repro reports the use-after-free on a debug
build of `main`.
- `stringViewCloneOutlivesBytes` in `test/internal/bindgen.test.ts`
frees the bytes before it returns the clone. `stringViewEcho` now goes
through `String::clone` for Latin-1 and UTF-16 views (226 pass).
- An A/B probe of the touched behaviour gives the same output on release
1.4.4 and on this branch: `process.argv`, `os.homedir()`, brace
expansion, `Transpiler.scan`, `dns.getServers()`, UDP `rinfo`, timer
warnings, JSON IPC, builtin resolution (all 182 alias keys through five
resolve APIs), `bun:wrap`, the valkey URL, error printing with non-ASCII
source lines, system errors, redirects, S3 errors, CLI errors.
- 36 related test files on a debug + ASAN build, with no ASAN report.
The failures are environmental: no `USER`, no IPv6, no DNS, 5 s timeouts
that pass with a longer limit, and a leak fixture that only knows an
ASAN build by the name `bun-asan`. `native-plugin.test.ts` did not run
locally (its setup hook timed out on a download).
- `cargo check --workspace --all-targets`, `bun run rust:clippy`, `cargo
fmt --check`, the source lints, and `rust:check-all` for
`x86_64-pc-windows-msvc` and `aarch64-apple-darwin`. `mordant` was not
run locally.

`\sub\rel.js` counts as absolute on Windows but depends on the current drive, so
it was left as typed. It now gets the drive of the working directory.

Also corrects the comment on the `blob_store_path` hook: the slice can be interned.

buildkite/bun is red on 49ad316 (#137870, finished), and none of the 40 failing tests is from this PR.

38 of them fail on main too. They are test/aot/* and test/bundler/compile-aot-size.test.ts. The same 38 fail in each of main's last four finished builds (#137822 at b1305dd, the commit merged here, then #137645, #137628, #137481). I found no small fix to port: the open PR that covers these tests is #47942, a rewrite of the AOT front end.

The other two fail only on x64-asan, a lane main's builds do not run, so I compared them with other branches' builds from the same two days:

  • test/js/web/request/request-clone-leak.test.ts: new Request(test #1) measured an RSS delta of exactly 64 MB on each of the attempts I read, against toBeLessThan(64). It fails the same way in builds of unrelated branches (#137852, #137863, #137868, #137869) and is reported flaky in nine more. The test never loads a blob: module, so it does not reach this diff. I have not looked for what moved the number. The test's own comment puts the unfixed leak at 100+ MB, so isASAN ? 80 : 30 would stop the failure and still catch it. I left that out of this PR.
  • test/aot/three-layers-agree.test.ts: one of its compiled runs ended with exit code 134 where 0 was expected. It also fails in #137846 and is reported flaky in 19 of the 58 other builds I looked at.

What this PR touches passes, including on both Windows lanes: inspect-error.test.js 52 pass, 1 skip (the POSIX-only case), 0 fail, which includes the new case for a path without a drive letter, and blob.test.ts 161 pass, 0 fail.

I cannot re-run BuildKite jobs from here, and a re-run would not change the 38.
