Part of #3332

Problem

• sources in a bundler source map are relative to the outdir, not to the map. For a chunk in a directory below the outdir, no entry resolves.
• Bun's stack trace for out/a/deep/entry.js names out/a/src/a/deep/thrower.ts, which does not exist.
• Cause: postProcessJSChunk.rs:801 passed output_dir as the chunk directory of generate_source_map_for_chunk (src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs:1209).

Fix

• The writer takes the chunk and derives the directory: outdir plus the directory of its naming template.
• Standalone HTML uses the HTML file's directory for an inline map. Builds without an outdir and executables keep their entries.
• Deleted: the CSS map build in post_process_css_chunk and CompileResult::Css::source_map. Nothing read them.
• Verified: 19 new tests, 15 fail on main (bundler_naming.test.ts and 6 more files), 25 suites. Self-reviewed: 22 concerns raised, 20 addressed (Notes).

Background

• ECMA-426, esbuild and Bun's reader (src/sourcemap/Mapping.rs:314) resolve a sources entry from the map's location.
• A naming template gives a chunk its path. The map is written before [hash] exists, so a stand-in is printed. A hash has no separator.
• Considered: the rule at the call sites (bundler: make sourcemap sources relative to the map file, not outdir #36601) broke executables and standalone HTML. Without an outdir it breaks code that resolves entries from the working directory.

Downsides

• Map bytes change for every chunk below an outdir root. A workaround that rewrites sources from the outdir must go.
• Per source-mapped JS chunk: +0.5k instructions of 189k. Below the root: +2.2k and 2 allocator calls. .text grows 2,048 bytes.
• Still wrong: --outfile dir/x.js with a map (bun build: never derive an output directory from the entry point #41879), the .map beside an executable. The issue's snippet has no outdir: unchanged.

Notes

Scope. @Jarred-Sumner asked for this fix with a repro that has an outdir, and stated the rule: entries relative to the .map file, as the spec and esbuild do. The text of #3332 asks for entries relative to root, and its snippet has no outdir. That shape is not changed here, so this PR does not close the issue.

Repro. Bun.build({ root, entrypoints: [root + "/a/deep/entry.ts", root + "/b/entry.ts"], outdir, sourcemap: "external" }). On main out/a/deep/entry.js.map has ../proj/a/deep/lib.ts: 0 of 5 entries resolve from the directory of their map. With this change it has ../../../proj/a/deep/lib.ts: 5 of 5.

A build without an outdir is unchanged. An earlier form of this change applied the rule there too, with the working directory as the outdir (what esbuild does for one entry point on stdout). Two findings removed it:

• Public code resolves those entries from the working directory. akan-team/akanjs (csrDevModuleCompiler.ts:337-341) states "Bun writes sources relative to the working directory" and calls path.resolve(source) on an in-memory build with [dir]/[name].[ext].
• bun build ./proj/b/entry.ts --entry-naming 'js/[name].[ext]' --sourcemap=inline > out.js: 2 of 2 entries resolve from out.js on main, 0 of 2 with the rule.

A rule for those builds is a separate decision for a maintainer.

Who is affected. A chunk whose output path has a directory below the outdir: entry points in different directories, a root above an entry point, nine or more entry points (until #38732), a directory in --entry-naming or --chunk-naming, the script chunk of an HTML import in a server build. A build with one entry point and default naming is not affected.

Users who work around the bug. lando/leia (dev/lib/build.ts:36-40) rewrites each entry with relative(dirname(artifact.path), resolve(outdir, source)). After this change that rewrite is wrong and must go. The portable form is to resolve from the directory of the map first.

Typed files. add_types_by_source_map (src/sema/driver/typed_files.rs:4080-4093) reads these maps and tries each ancestor of the output file as the base. That walk can find another module with the same name first: bun build ./src/index.ts ./src/sub/index.ts --outdir src --dts writes function util(options: Flagged) for the root util on main. The new test in bun-build-dts.test.ts covers it. The walk stays, because a build without an outdir still needs it.

Tests. 19 new tests in 7 existing files, and one assertion in an eighth. On a release build of main (34cbc70), 15 fail and 4 pass:

• test/bundler/bundler_naming.test.ts: 5 itBundled cases (entry points in directories, a directory in the entry naming, a [hash] directory, a directory in the chunk naming with splitting, an entry point outside root). All fail on main.
• test/js/bun/sourcemap/internal-sourcemap-roundtrip.test.ts: the stack trace of a chunk below the outdir for external, linked and inline maps, and --entry-naming 'js/[name].[ext]' on the CLI. All 4 fail on main. A guard: standard output keeps entries relative to the working directory.
• test/bundler/standalone.test.ts: inline and linked maps of standalone HTML. Both fail on main.
• test/bundler/bundler_html_server.test.ts: the script chunk of an HTML import in a server build, API and CLI. Both fail on main.
• test/bundler/bun-build-dts.test.ts: the typed file of a chunk in a directory has the types of both modules. Fails on main.
• test/bundler/bun-build-api.test.ts: absolute and relative outdir with external, linked and inline maps (fails on main), with two rows that pin a build without an outdir. A guard: a naming template that is too long still fails the build the same way when the chunk has a source map.
• test/bundler/bun-build-compile-sourcemap.test.ts: two guards that pin the sources of an executable's maps, for Bun.build with an outdir and for the CLI.
• test/bake/dev/production.test.ts: one added assertion on the frame of a prerender error.
• src/bundler/options.rs: a unit test that the stand-in hash keeps the directory depth of the final path.

Suites that pass on the debug build: the 8 files above, bundler_edgecase, bundler_splitting, bundler_compile, bundler_compile_splitting, bundler_html, bundler_npm, metafile, html-import-manifest, compile-sourcemap-internal, esbuild/css, css/css-modules, bun-serve-html, bake/dev/css, bake/dev/sourcemap, bake/dev-and-prod, cli/compile/compile-library, regression/issue/22003. bun run rust:test -p bun_bundler: 176 pass. cargo clippy -p bun_bundler is clean. rust:check-all passes for x86_64-pc-windows-msvc, aarch64-apple-darwin and x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.

Measurements. Release builds of main (8971677) and of this branch in one container. Tools: gdb breakpoints on the 12 mimalloc entry points, scoped by backtrace. A perf_event_open counter of user-mode instructions on one CPU, medians of 11 to 21 interleaved runs, with the spread between two runs of main beside each delta. size and nm -S. valgrind, perf and strace are not installed.

.text by function: post_process_js_chunk with the writer +3,138, write_sanitized_parent_dirs for the fixed buffer +324, the chunk task without the CSS map build -1,382.

Outputs, 29 shapes: the map bytes change in 13, each with an outdir and a map below its root. The 16 that do not change: every flat layout, every build without an outdir, both executable shapes, --outfile with an inline map. Entries that resolve from the directory of their map go from 0 of 5 to 5 of 5 for entry points in directories (external, linked, inline, relative outdir), 0 of 2 to 2 of 2 for js/[name] and [hash]/[name], 2 of 3 to 3 of 3 for chunks/[name]-[hash], 0 of 3 to 3 of 3 for an entry point outside root, 1 of 2 to 2 of 2 for standalone HTML with an inline map. The sources arrays equal esbuild 0.21.5 on 4 of 4 layouts with an outdir (main: 1 of 4).

Standalone HTML with inline maps, pages of one size, main 34cbc70 and 5c41122, medians of 9 interleaved runs. For each JS chunk this branch adds 2.0k, 1.7k, 1.9k and 2.1k instructions at 500, 1,000, 2,000 and 4,000 HTML entry points. From 2,000 to 4,000 entry points the build grows x2.204 on main and on this branch. The search for the HTML chunk starts at the chunk after the JS chunk, where compute_chunks puts it. A search from the first chunk cost 6.8 instructions for each chunk and entry point: +29.2k for each chunk at 4,000, 4.1% of the build. On main the linked-map arm of standalone HTML has that search (generateChunksInParallel.rs:787). It is not changed here. .text on this base: 137,387,607 to 137,389,655.

A naming template whose stand-in print is 4,097 bytes and whose final path is 4,091 bytes builds on both. The map is 24 directories below the outdir: main writes one ../, this branch 25.

Still wrong, with owners.

• bun build --outfile dir/x.js --sourcemap=inline: the CLI picks the output directory after linking, so the linker sees no outdir. bun build: never derive an output directory from the entry point #41879 sets it before. Issue Directories in --outfile are ignored with --sourcemap #19729 covers the linked form, which writes into the directory of the entry point.
• An executable: bun build --compile --outfile out/app --sourcemap=external writes out/app.map with entries relative to the working directory. Bun.build with compile and an outdir writes entries relative to the outdir, and the executable prints them in its stack traces. This change keeps both. Which base an executable has is not decided.
• A build without an outdir whose artifacts are in directories, and the typed-file reader for such a build.
• Client chunks of bun build --app in dist/_bun/ with an inline map. Not verified here.

Open PRs on the same lines.

• bundler: cover the chunk path, the source map and chunk references in [hash] and debugId #47285 changes the writer's call and deletes the same CSS block. They conflict in LinkerContext.rs and postProcessJSChunk.rs. Keep the chunk, chunks arguments and take its debug ID block. Once its hash covers the map, this change renames the hashed chunks below an outdir root one time, so the two fit in one release.
• bundler: print path-matched file externals relative to the output file #42034 (draft) adds the same stand-in print and Chunk::output_dir_abs. The two helpers become one when both land.
• Bun.build, bun build: use the shared directory of 9 or more entry points as the default root #38732 puts nine entry points of one directory at the outdir root.
• bun build --no-bundle: honor --sourcemap #41939 adds a sources writer for --no-bundle with its own base.
• bundler: compose source maps through an input file's sourceMappingURL map #45638 reads input maps from the directory of the map. This change should land first.

Self-review. 22 concerns raised, 20 addressed. The largest: the rule no longer applies without an outdir, the join uses join_abs_string_spill, the bake clause is gone (a bake build has no outdir) and a test pins its frame, the executable tests compare sources bytes for the API and the CLI, the CSS field is deleted with its block. Rejected:

• One Vec print in place of the pooled buffer with a Vec fallback. The pooled buffer keeps a chunk at the outdir root at 0 new allocator calls.
• A bun compile --library case. It has the writer and the reader of the --dts case.

Credit. The rule (outdir plus the directory of the naming template, with a stand-in hash) comes from #36601, which the stale sweep closed.

CI, build 136129 (5c41122). No test of this change fails on any lane (Linux glibc and musl, x64 and arm64, the ASAN lane, macOS, Windows). Three test files are red. None of them is from this diff:

In this one binary that sum is the address of the fork import slot.

The mordant check fails on bun_glob::walk_bun_glob (src/glob/lib.rs:49, from #47513), which this PR does not touch.

[claude]

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

Beyond the inline finding, I also checked two things in source_map_base_dir: a [hash] in a directory component of the naming template (the stand-in print changes the directory's name but not its depth, and the sources relative paths depend only on depth, which the new unit test in options.rs pins), and the reads of sibling chunks' template/content/entry_point from parallel post-process tasks (they go through the existing read-only GenerateChunkCtx::chunks BackRef and touch fields that are assigned before post-processing starts).

Extended reasoning...

The change rewires how the Rust bundler computes the base directory for source map sources entries (src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs, options.rs, postProcessJSChunk.rs) and deletes the CSS chunk source-map generation path wholesale, with tests across Bun.build, CLI, --compile, standalone HTML and dts. It touches no security-sensitive surface. The two concerns named above were examined and ruled out from the code; the posted inline finding is a test-hygiene nit.

Walkthrough

Source-map paths now resolve relative to the directory of the file carrying the map. The bundler derives that directory from output templates, changes JavaScript and CSS source-map handling, and adds regression tests for multiple build modes and output layouts.

Changes

Source Map Path Resolution

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Derive the source-map base directory src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs, src/bundler/options.rs	Path templates can be printed with a stand-in hash. Source-map base directories are derived from chunk output templates, including standalone HTML inline maps.
Apply source-map handling to chunks src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs, src/bundler/bundle_v2.rs, src/bundler/linker_context/*	JavaScript source-map generation receives the chunk and chunk list. CSS compile results no longer store source maps, and CSS post-processing no longer generates output source maps.
Verify source paths across build modes test/bake/dev/production.test.ts, test/bundler/*, test/js/bun/sourcemap/internal-sourcemap-roundtrip.test.ts	Tests check source paths relative to map locations or working directories across output templates, workers, standalone HTML, and sourcemap modes. Additional tests cover error frames, declaration output, and long output paths.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 5c411

The source-map path correction is mergeable after normal checks. The earlier repeated HTML lookup concern is addressed; executable external-map paths retain an existing limitation.

Explanation

The description follows the repository template. It has both required sections, "What does this PR do?" and "How did you verify your code works?". The Problem, Fix, and Background parts state the purpose and scope of the change clearly. The verification part gives concrete evidence: 19 new tests, with 15 failing on main; a bun run rust:test -p bun_bundler run with 176 passing; a clean cargo clippy; and rust:check-all passing for three targets. It also includes performance measurements and a list of known remaining gaps. The evidence note says four test files did not run locally and are deferred to CI, which is a minor gap and does not block the check. The description is long, and the Notes block carries much of the detail, but the required information is present.

Build the HTML lookup once instead of per JS chunk.

1223-1226: Minor · Performance & Scalability · Low value

Build the HTML lookup once instead of per JS chunk.

In standalone inline-source-map builds, source_map_base_dir scans the whole chunks slice for a matching HTML chunk each time it runs. It runs once per JS chunk that needs a map, so the total scan cost grows with the product of JS and HTML chunk counts. Build an entry-point-to-template lookup once in the caller and pass it in.

[robobun]

Both follow-up comments of the review are in 5c41122.

The HTML chunk lookup in source_map_base_dir. Changed. The search now starts at the chunk after the JS chunk. compute_chunks puts the HTML chunk of an entry point there, so the search ends at the first chunk. The search wraps around, so the result does not depend on that order. A lookup table is not necessary: it needs one more pass and one allocation for each link.

Instructions that this branch adds for each JS chunk, for bun build --compile --target=browser --sourcemap=inline on pages of one size (release builds, medians of 9 interleaved runs):

HTML entry points	search from the first chunk (2f2f73f)	search from the JS chunk (5c41122)
500	+5.4k	+2.0k
1,000	+8.7k	+1.7k
2,000	+16.0k	+1.9k
4,000	+29.2k	+2.1k

At 4,000 entry points the branch added 4.1% to the build. It now adds 0.3%. From 2,000 to 4,000 entry points the build grows x2.204 on main and on this branch (before: x2.240). The sources do not change.

On main, the linked-map arm of standalone HTML has the same search from the first chunk (src/bundler/linker_context/generateChunksInParallel.rs:787). This PR does not change that arm.

The Flagged assertion in bun-build-dts.test.ts. Added, with a different string. The bundler renames the second util to util2, so the typed file has function util2(options: Flagged): string {. The suggested function util(options: Flagged): string { is the wrong line that main writes for the root util. The fixed build does not write it.

[claude]

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

Beyond the inline finding, I also checked the deleted CSS source-map build in post_process_css_chunk: Content::sourcemap() (src/bundler/Chunk.rs:1637) returns None for CSS chunks, so their output_source_map was never finalized or written, and generate_isolated_hash ran before the deleted call, so chunk hashes are unchanged. The join_abs_string_spill::<platform::Auto> call is also fine on Windows — Auto is Windows, not Nt, so its debug assert cannot trip.

Extended reasoning...

The change rebases source map sources on the directory of the chunk's naming template (or the HTML chunk for standalone inline maps) in src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs, adds PathTemplate::print_with_stand_in_hash in src/bundler/options.rs, removes the never-consumed CSS source-map generation, and adds tests across eight files; it touches no security-sensitive surface. The prior nit about the undrained stdout pipe in bun-build-compile-sourcemap.test.ts was addressed in the pushed commits. The one posted finding is a pre-existing gap (--outfile dir/x.js) the PR description itself names as out of scope.

- Around line 1218-1219: Update source_map_base_dir so external source maps in
executable compile mode use the source map file’s directory as the base for
resolving sources, rather than returning None and using the working directory.
Preserve the existing behavior for other compile modes and update the test that
pins the current output layout.

@Jarred-Sumner A question on the executable case that this PR lists under "Still wrong". It needs your ruling before a change.

What are the sources of the .map beside an executable: names, or paths relative to the map?

Measured on a release build of main (34cbc70), in the project root. proj/main.ts imports proj/a/deep/where.ts.

Build	Entry of sources	Frame that the executable prints
bun compile --sourcemap=external ./proj/main.ts --outfile dist/app	proj/a/deep/where.ts	/$bunfs/root/compiled.js:2:2
bun compile --no-aot --sourcemap=external ./proj/main.ts --outfile dist/app	proj/a/deep/where.ts	proj/a/deep/where.ts:2:9
bun build --compile --sourcemap=external ./proj/main.ts --outfile dist/app	proj/a/deep/where.ts	proj/a/deep/where.ts:2:9
Bun.build({ compile: { outfile: "dist/app" } })	proj/a/deep/where.ts	proj/a/deep/where.ts:2:9
Bun.build({ compile: { outfile: "app" }, outdir: "dist" })	../proj/a/deep/where.ts	../proj/a/deep/where.ts:2:9
Bun.build({ compile: { outfile: "bin/app" }, outdir: "dist" })	../proj/a/deep/where.ts	../proj/a/deep/where.ts:2:9

The first four rows write names relative to the working directory of the build. test/aot/cli/sentry-source-map.test.ts expects that for --outfile dist/app. The last two rows follow the outdir. In the last row the map is dist/bin/app.map, and its entries resolve from neither the map nor the working directory.

Two rules are possible.

1. Names. The entries are the names that the executable prints, relative to the working directory of the build. Only the last two rows change, to proj/a/deep/where.ts. The change is one base for an executable in source_map_base_dir. The entries do not resolve from the map when the executable is in another directory.
2. Paths relative to the map (ECMA-426, the rule of this PR for bundles). Rows 2 to 4 change to ../proj/a/deep/where.ts, and the last row to ../../proj/a/deep/where.ts. The executable then embeds a second list of names, or it prints ../proj/.... The map of bun compile is the only name table of its executable. If row 1 follows the rule, a symbolicated frame of the Sentry test becomes ../billing/charge-customer.ts.

One fact for rule 1: filenameIsInApp in @sentry/core 11.10.0 reads a frame named proj/x.ts as not application code, and ../proj/x.ts as application code. CLI builds print the first form today.

Which rule do you want?

A draft of rule 2

The branch robobun/ff6293ab/compile-sourcemap-sources-base has a draft of rule 2 for bun build --compile and Bun.build. It is not a PR.

• The two entry points give the linker the directory of the executable (BundleOptions::set_compile_output_dir). The linker writes sources relative to it. It writes a second list, relative to the working directory, that the executable embeds and prints.
• Release builds of main and of the branch, 10 build shapes: 40 of 40 entries resolve from their map (main: 16 of 40), and each executable prints proj/a/deep/where.ts:2:9.
• Cost for an executable outside the working directory: +2,774 instructions per source (+3.1% of a build with 4,001 sources). Other builds: 0 added allocator calls. .text grows 3,328 bytes.
• Not done: it does not change the map of bun compile. It is not stacked on this PR, so the rule is not in source_map_base_dir, and the CLI pin of this PR ("app.map": ["proj/main.ts"]) fails with it. It reads the new option through an unsafe borrow in LinkerOptions, where resolver.opts has a safe path. The gate in set_compile_output_dir has no unit test.

A note on the merge order with #47624. That PR makes Content::Html a struct variant (Content::Html { js_chunk_index }). This branch merges with it with no textual conflict, but matches!(html.content, crate::chunk::Content::Html) in LinkerContext::source_map_base_dir then fails to compile.

Content::Html { .. } compiles on main today and after #47624, so the edit can go in now. After #47624, the search in source_map_base_dir can be one call: Chunk::get_html_chunk_for_js(chunks, chunk_index, self.graph.files.items_entry_point_chunk_index()).

[robobun]

The typed-file reader for a build without an outdir is in #47627.

• It takes the sources of each chunk from the linker. It does not resolve the sources of the source map, so it does not depend on their base.
• git merge-tree of the two branches has no conflict in either order. On a debug build of the merged tree, bun-build-dts.test.ts (with the test from this PR) and bun-build-api-dts.test.ts pass.
• bun build --dts: take the sources of each chunk from the linker, not from the sources of its source map #47627 deletes the search. If it lands first, the test here in bun-build-dts.test.ts passes without the writer change, and three statements in this body no longer hold: the count of tests that fail on main, Fails on main for that file, and The walk stays.
