Problem

Fix

  • The table follows Node's FileHandleOperations: an entry ignores fd, calls the handle's method, and gives failures to the stream's callback.
  • With the built-in method, the entry calls the binding itself, as before. If the binding refuses the arguments, the entry asks the method.
  • Verified: test/js/node/fs/fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts (44 of 51 fail on main), the stream tests of fs.test.ts, 44 vendored Node tests.
  • Self-reviewed: 14 concerns raised, 13 addressed. Not done: upstream issues for rows Node never settles.

Background

  • A stream does its I/O through a table (this[kFs]). kIsPerformingIO marks an operation in flight, and _destroy waits for its callback.
  • Considered: clear the flag when the operation throws (fixes 3 of 16 rows). Also Node's promise for every chunk (9 more GC cells).

Downsides

  • An objectMode string is written at position 0, as in Node.js up to v26. Main throws, and Node.js v27 refuses it.
  • A replaced handle.read, write or writev is now called. If it throws synchronously, the stream stays open, as in Node.
  • Valid input: 3 fewer GC cells per chunk and per stream. The binary grows 1,510 bytes.
Notes

There is no issue and no user report for this. #34907 lists it under "Still different from Node ... No PR yet".

Repro 1: a second stream on a handle that the first stream closed

import fs from "node:fs";
import { open } from "node:fs/promises";
async function main() {
  const handle = await open(import.meta.filename, "r");
  for await (const chunk of fs.createReadStream(null, { fd: handle })) void chunk;
  console.log("first stream done");
  try {
    for await (const chunk of fs.createReadStream(null, { fd: handle })) void chunk;
  } catch (err) {
    console.log("caught:", err.name, err.code);
  }
  console.log("after the catch block");
}
main();
runtime output
Node.js v26.3.0, Bun 1.3.14 first stream done, caught: RangeError ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE, after the catch block
Bun 1.4.0, main first stream done, then exit code 0
this PR first stream done, caught: SystemError EBADF, after the catch block

Repro 2: a read that the handle refuses

import { open } from "node:fs/promises";
const handle = await open(import.meta.filename, "r");
const stream = handle.createReadStream();
stream.pos = -5;
const events = [];
for (const name of ["error", "end", "close"]) stream.on(name, e => events.push(name === "error" ? "error:" + e.code : name));
stream.resume();
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1000));
console.log("events:", events.join(",") || "(none)");
process.exit(0);

Node.js v26.3.0, Bun 1.3.14 and this PR print events: error:ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE,close. Bun 1.4.0 and main print events: (none). When the collector later finds the handle, main reports ERR_INVALID_STATE: A FileHandle object was closed during garbage collection (#33693).

Rows that change. A probe of 73 rows (read, write and writev on a FileHandle, a raw fd, a path, options.fs and a replaced handle method, with stream.pos, stream.fd and objectMode chunks) differs from Node v26.3.0 in 16 rows on main and in 0 rows here. The same holds when the write rows end with destroy().

row, on a live FileHandle Node v26.3.0 main this PR
read, stream.pos = -5, 1.5 or 2 ** 53 error ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE, close no event as Node
read, stream.fd = -1, "x" or 1.5 data, end, close no event as Node
write or writev, stream.fd = -1 or "x" finish, close write() or uncork() throws, no event as Node
write, objectMode string finish, close write() throws ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE, no event as Node
write, objectMode object or number. writev, objectMode strings, objects or numbers error ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE, close write() or uncork() throws, no event as Node

Other rows that now equal Node:

  • stream.fd set to the descriptor of another open file: main reads and writes that file.
  • handle.read, handle.write or handle.writev replaced after the stream exists: main does not call them. A replaced handle.writev alone: main never calls it.
  • A chunk of 2 GiB: main throws ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE from write(). Node and this PR give it to the write callback, then error, close.
  • An empty chunk on a handle opened for reading: main reports EBADF. Node and this PR finish.
  • stream.fd = "x" in the tick of construction: ERR_METHOD_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, as Node. Main: TypeError: this[kFs].open is not a function.

objectMode strings. The stream gives a string to handle.write(string, position, encoding) with 0 for the position and the length for the encoding, as Node's table does.

an objectMode string on a FileHandle stream result
Node.js v24.0.0 to v26.13.0, this PR written at position 0, then finish, close
Node.js v27 nightly (nodejs/node#66247) error ERR_UNKNOWN_ENCODING: Unknown encoding: 5, close, nothing written
Bun 1.3.14, 1.4.0, main ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE: The "cb" argument must be of type function. Received type number (5), thrown from write(), or uncaught when the chunk waits for the stream. No event, nothing written, the handle stays open
  • Position 0 holds for each string: start does not count, and a later string goes over an earlier one. stream.pos and bytesWritten count as if the strings were in sequence.
  • A string of more bytes than UTF-16 units is written. The stream then asks for a rest that does not exist and fails: ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR in Node, Error: write failed in Bun (the text in writeAll on main).
  • Two strings written before the stream is constructed go to writev, which refuses them: ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE, close, nothing written.
  • Node v27 refuses an unknown encoding in validateEncoding. In Bun fs.write, fs.writeSync and handle.write share that validator (src/js/internal/validators.ts:209), and the vendored test-fs-promises-file-handle-write.js:46 still passes a length for the encoding. The stream calls handle.write(), so it refuses strings as soon as the validator does, with no change in streams.ts. Question for a maintainer: is that port wanted now?

Not changed, on purpose

  • Rows that Node never settles either: a raw fd or a path with a bad stream.pos or stream.fd, an options.fs operation that throws, a handle method that throws synchronously. Bun 1.3.14 settled the read rows of these. With a patch in _read, _write and _writev (clear the flag and throw again) 27 of the 73 rows differ from Node, or 50 when the write rows end with destroy(), and 13 of the 16 rows above stay different.
  • The delivery of a chunk on valid input. The binding calls the stream's callback from its completion, as it does for fs.read() since node:fs: call callbacks from the native completion, not a promise reaction #43728. In a data listener a process.nextTick() therefore runs before a microtask, and a throw of the listener is an uncaughtException. Node calls back from a promise job: the microtask runs first, and the throw is an unhandledRejection. This PR keeps what main does, and a new test pins the AsyncLocalStorage store that the uncaughtException handler sees. The binding's promise arm in the read entry gives Node's order at 11.72 cells per read (main 10.73, this PR 7.72). Question for a maintainer: is Node's order wanted for these streams?
  • A method replaced on FileHandle.prototype before the stream module is first loaded is not called, as on main. A capture of the three methods in fs.promises.ts fixes that row. It also makes test/aot/parallel/library-modules/file-handle-method-under-a-computed-key fail under --compile --aot, so it is not in this PR.
  • Message texts that are not Node's: Expected ArrayBufferView[] for writev, and writev as the system call name of its EBADF.
  • writevAll gives this.pos to the table, not its pos argument, so the rest of a short writev on a stream with start goes to the wrong position. Node has the same line (lib/internal/fs/streams.js#L442 in v26.3.0). It is not part of this change.
  • A chunk whose own byteLength getter throws: Bun calls the getter twice (the table entry, then handle.write()), Node once. The stream reports the error and closes in both.

Deleted: the capture of fs.read, fs.write, fs.fsync and fs.writev in streams.ts, the comparison of fh.sync with a method that does not exist, and the $assert that stream.fd equals the descriptor of the handle in the close entry. The three entries stay three functions with explicit parameters: a rest parameter costs two arrays per chunk.

Measurements. Debug builds of main f7607a3 and of this PR, linux x64. perf, valgrind and strace are not installed in the container.

  • JS cells per FileHandle-stream chunk (Function + JSLexicalEnvironment, Promise 0 in both): read 3+3 -> 2+2, write 4+6 -> 3+5, writev batch 5+7 -> 4+6. Total cells per read 10.73 -> 7.72, per write 11.73 -> 8.72, per writev batch 18.73 -> 15.73 (bun:jsc heapStats, BUN_JSC_useGC=0, 500 operations). Node's table shape on main's build: 19.73, 20.73 and 30.73.
  • Bytecodes per chunk on the success path, from the stream's call to the native call and back: read 65 -> 43, write 72 -> 52, writev 61 -> 41. The test of the handle's method at each operation is 5 of them, the conditions on a write chunk are 9 (BUN_JSC_dumpGeneratedBytecodes=1).
  • Per FileHandle stream: -2 Function, -1 JSLexicalEnvironment. Total cells 22.66 -> 19.66 for a read stream and 20.67 -> 17.67 for a write stream (heapStats, 500 constructions).
  • Built-in JS text in a release build: +1,510 bytes (InternalModuleRegistryConstants.bin 2,752,721 -> 2,754,231, from streams.js +1,483 and shared.js +27). Host functions +0, no native file touched.
  • Per refused operation: read 23.3 cells, write 16.3 cells, writev 28.3 cells, and the callback runs on microtask job 2, 1 and 2. On main these calls throw at the caller (9.3, 9.3 and 11.3 cells).
  • System calls for 16,384 chunks of 4 KiB: read loop 16,492 -> 16,491 reads, write loop 32,768 -> 32,768 writes (/proc/self/io, which also counts the wakeups of the event loop).
  • Rows that differ from Node v26.3.0: 73-row probe 16 -> 0, and 16 -> 0 with destroy(). A probe of methods replaced late 21 of 24 -> 0. A probe of objectMode chunks and positions 67 of 107 -> 4. These 4 are rows that Node does not settle, and they differ in uncaughtException against unhandledRejection.
  • Valid-input observables against main: node.fs.async trace spans read 4 of 4 and write 2 of 2 on both. The order of data, nextTick and microtask, the event and the AsyncLocalStorage store for a throwing listener and write callback, and the stores inside listeners are identical in 3 of 3 runs.

Tests. fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts uses node:test. Its last test runs the same file under the Node.js of the CI image, as five files in test/js/node do. Two more tests are for Bun alone: the EBADF of a closed handle, and the uncaughtException with its store.

  • Node.js: the 48 shared tests pass under v24.0.0, v24.22.2, v25.9.0, v26.0.0, v26.3.0, v26.12.1 and v26.13.0. Under a v27 nightly 46 pass and the 2 objectMode string tests are skipped. Node.js v22 cannot parse the await using of the file, so the last test takes node from nodeExeAtLeast("24.0.0").
  • Main: each test was run alone on main's module texts, and 44 of the 51 fail. The 7 that pass: the 2 flush tests, the file size limit test, 2 rows of the comparison of the built-in method with a replaced one, the store test and the Node.js run. In a run of the whole file 50 fail, because a handle that main leaves open is collected during a later test.
  • Each clause of the change was removed in turn from the built module text: 42 variants, for example the descriptor of the handle, the test of the method at each operation, each condition on a write chunk, the place where the entry reads byteLength, the second attempt through the method, the error and the third argument of the binding's callback, each position, the call of handle.sync(). Every variant fails at least one test.
  • One group of tests runs each chunk shape twice, with the built-in method and with a replaced one that does the same. In Node.js that is one path. In Bun it compares the call to the binding with the method.
  • Also run on the debug build: the stream, FileHandle and callback tests of test/js/node/fs/fs.test.ts (162 pass), promises.test.js, fs-leak.test.js, the FileHandle tests of worker_threads.test.ts, 44 vendored Node tests (test-fs-*-stream*, test-fs-promises-file-handle-*, test-filehandle-*, the quic and http2 FileHandle tests, test-trace-events-fs-async.js), and test-fs-write-stream-flush.js under bun test.
  • Built with --compile --aot and compared with plain Bun: file-handle-method-under-a-computed-key, file-handle-given-to-streams-loaded-first.cjs and a program with valid and refused reads and writes. The three print the same.

The operations table of such a stream gave it the callback fs.read,
fs.write and fs.writev with the stream's own fd. Those throw for
arguments that they refuse. The stream had already marked the I/O as
in flight, so it waited for a callback that never came and did not
close.

The table now follows Node's FileHandleOperations. An entry ignores the
fd argument, calls the method of the handle, and gives a failure to the
callback. While the handle has the built-in method, the entry makes the
method's call to the binding directly. When the binding refuses the
arguments, the entry asks the method of the handle.

Status

  • Reproduced on a debug build of main f7607a3. handle.createReadStream() with stream.pos = -5 emits no event. A second fs.createReadStream(null, { fd: handle }) on a handle that the first stream closed ends the program with exit code 0 before its catch block. Node.js v26.3.0 and Bun 1.3.14 report an error in both cases.
  • With this change both cases report the error. bun bd test test/js/node/fs/fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts passes, and 44 of its 51 tests fail on main.
  • CI on 0c98ef2 is complete. fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts has no failure on any lane: 51 pass on Linux with ASAN, 50 pass and 1 skipped on Windows and on macOS (the file size limit test is for Linux). Two tests are red, and this PR touches neither:
    • test/aot/engine/ir-6.test.ts fails the same way without this change (https://buildkite.com/bun/bun/builds/135385, the last build of the commit that is now the head of main).
    • test/aot/parallel/node-http/objects-closed-in-other-ways.ts failed on macOS x64 only. The compiled program and plain Bun differ in which of four fetch calls gets a TypeError after the server freezes its response object. It has no failure on any other lane.
  • For a maintainer: should Bun refuse an objectMode string on these streams as Node.js v27 does? See node:fs: do the I/O of a FileHandle stream through the handle #47445 (comment).

Walkthrough

FileHandle-backed streams now route reads, writes, vectored writes, sync, and close through the handle or internal filesystem binding. Tests cover error and closure behavior, handle method replacement, and I/O across varied inputs.

Changes

FileHandle stream I/O

Layer / File(s) Summary
FileHandle operation dispatch
src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts, src/js/internal/shared.ts
The adapter uses binding callbacks for supported, unchanged handle methods and falls back to promise-based methods when needed. Sync and close delegate to the handle. Callback exceptions are reported as uncaught exceptions.
Stream errors and handle ownership
test/js/node/fs/fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts
Tests cover invalid operations, stream and handle closure, refused system operations, and I/O through the FileHandle when stream.fd differs or is invalid.
Method replacement and I/O behavior
test/js/node/fs/fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts
Tests cover replaceable handle methods, varied inputs and positions, flush behavior, partial writes, closed handles, callback exceptions, and conditional Node compatibility.

Add a flush-enabled FileHandle case that asserts handle.sync() runs.

The new suite in test/js/node/fs/fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts has no flush: true case and no sync assertion. The existing works with file handles test in test/js/node/test/parallel/test-fs-write-stream-flush.js checks only the write callback and the file contents. A change that replaces the FileHandle fsync delegation with an immediate callback would pass both tests.

Add a case to this suite that uses its existing setup. Spy on the handle's sync method. Create a write stream from the handle with flush: true, write data, and end the stream. Assert that the spy recorded one call before the stream closes.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the three bare catch {} blocks in fileHandleStreamRead/Write/Writev — the fallback method.$call(handle, ...) goes through the handle's async method, so the binding's synchronous argument error is re-raised as a rejection that reaches the stream callback rather than being lost. Also confirmed the readCb/writeCb/writevCb call shape matches the existing use in src/js/node/fs.ts, and that internal/fs/streams.ts has no src/js/ahead-of-time/ twin needing the same edit.

Extended reasoning...

The change rewires fs.ReadStream/WriteStream on a FileHandle in src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts to call the handle's methods (or the binding directly on the fast path) instead of captured fs.read/write/writev, exports reportUncaughtException from internal/shared.ts, and adds a 650-line node:test file. No security-sensitive surface is touched. Inline findings already cover the objectMode string path, the sync-throwing replaced method, the writevAll position, and test-harness concerns; this note only records what else was examined and ruled out.

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/internal/fs/streams.ts — Users of a FileHandle WriteStream created with start get a hole and shifted bytes in the file when a corked batch is only partially written. writevAll at src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts:776 passes this.pos, not its pos parameter, and _writev at :1002 has already advanced this.pos by the full batch size synchronously. The retry at :798 therefore writes the remainder at start+size instead of start+bytesWritten. Fix: pass the local pos (advanced at :791 by bytesWritten) to this[kFs].writev, the way writeAll at :739 does, so the remainder of a short writev lands right after the bytes already written.

    Why this was flagged

    Trigger: handle.createWriteStream({ start: 100 }), cork(), several writes totalling size N, uncork(), and the kernel writes fewer than N bytes (a file size limit as in test/js/node/fs/fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts:421, a full disk, or a pipe-like target). _writev at src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts:992 calls writevAll with this.pos = 100 and then :1002 sets this.pos = 100 + N before any callback runs. writevAll :776 issues this[kFs].writev(this.fd, chunks, this.pos, ...); on a partial write of B bytes, :791 advances the local pos to 100 + B, but the retry at :798 re-enters writevAll, which again reads this.pos (100 + N) at :776. The remaining N - B bytes land at offset 100 + N, leaving a gap of N - B unwritten bytes at [100 + B, 100 + N) and the file N - B bytes longer than expected. The base branch does have the same line, and the PR routes the new FileHandle writev entry and its new partial-write test through it, while the test at :441-454 runs without start so pos is undefined and the hole is never observed.

    Verification: writevAll (src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts:776) issues this[kFs].writev!(this.fd, chunks, this.pos, ...), reading this.pos, not its pos parameter. _writev (:992) then synchronously (:1002) runs this.pos += size before any writev callback. On a partial write the retry (:798) passes the local pos, which :776 ignores. The base has the identical lines; the diff does not touch writevAll or _writev.

Comment thread src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts Resolved
…e entry

A chunk with an own `byteLength` getter that throws made `write()` throw
out of the write entry of a FileHandle stream. `handle.write()` reads the
property inside its async function, so in Node.js the stream gets the
error and closes. The entry now reads it inside its `try`.

Tests:
- A chunk whose `byteLength` throws.
- A stream with the `flush` option calls `handle.sync` before it closes,
  when `sync` resolves and when it rejects.
- objectMode strings: each one is written at position 0, and one of more
  bytes than UTF-16 units fails after it is written. Node.js v27 refuses
  an unknown encoding, so these two are skipped there.
- The Node.js run takes `node` from `nodeExeAtLeast("24.0.0")`, gets
  `bunEnv`, and has no timeout of its own.

Review follow-up in 0c98ef2.

Changed:

  • fileHandleStreamWrite reads buffer.byteLength inside its try, so a chunk whose getter throws reaches the write callback.
  • New tests: a chunk whose byteLength throws, a stream with the flush option, objectMode strings.
  • The Node.js run of the test file takes node from nodeExeAtLeast("24.0.0"), gets bunEnv, and has no timeout of its own. The file passes under Node.js v24.0.0 to v26.13.0, and under a v27 nightly with 2 tests skipped.

Two findings have no thread:

  • flush and handle.sync() (streams.ts:262): the two new tests are in fs-filehandle-stream-ops.test.ts. The vendored test-fs-write-stream-flush.js stays a copy of Node's file. The tests expect finish, sync, close, and with a sync that rejects finish, sync, error, close. An entry that calls back without handle.sync(), or that drops its error, fails them.
  • writevAll gives this.pos to the table and not its pos argument: correct. Main has the same line, and so does Node.js: https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v26.3.0/lib/internal/fs/streams.js#L441-L442. This PR does not touch writevAll. A fix there makes Bun differ from Node on a short writev, so it is a decision of its own.

I re-reviewed after 0c98ef2 and found no new bugs; since this replaces the whole I/O table of a FileHandle stream in node:fs and the description itself leaves a callback-ordering question open for a maintainer, a human look is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

  • The second commit: buffer.byteLength now read inside the write entry's try, the Node run gated on nodeExeAtLeast("24.0.0") with bunEnv and no per-test timeout, and the objectMode-string rows pinned as Node v26 behavior with a v27 skip.
  • The three entries' fallback to method.$call(handle, ...): every built-in FileHandle method is an async function, so a refused argument or a closed handle reaches the stream callback as a rejection, never a synchronous throw.
  • fromBinding mirrors guardCallback in internal/shared.ts; binding is read per call, which is what internal/trace_events.ts needs to wrap readCb/writeCb/writevCb; internal/fs/streams.ts has no ahead-of-time/ twin to update.
Extended reasoning...

The diff reworks src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts (+187/-53) so a ReadStream/WriteStream on a FileHandle performs read, write, writev, fsync and close through the handle's own methods, with a fast path straight to the binding while the prototype method is unpatched, plus a one-line export in internal/shared.ts and a new 724-line dual-runtime test file. It touches no auth, crypto or injection surface; the sensitive part is the hot path of node:fs streams and Node-compat error delivery. No CODEOWNERS entry covers the changed files. Deferral rather than approval rests on the size and semantics of the change and on the PR's own open question to a maintainer about whether Node's promise-job callback ordering is wanted; the second commit addressed part of the earlier feedback and the remaining rows are documented as deliberate Node-matching choices.
