Problem

  • A build error stays until a restart in two cases. A client component loses "use client", or a server-imported stylesheet fails once, then builds. The stale error stops page reloads (finalize.rs:779).
  • File.failed and the bundling_failures entry of a file must change together. disconnect_and_delete_file (incremental_graph.rs:543) changes neither, insert_css_file_on_server (:1484) only the flag.
  • A still-imported component that loses "use client" can stop the dev server: panic: Server Incremental Graph is missing component for "".

Fix

  • IncrementalGraph::retract_failure clears the flag and removes the entry. It replaces three inline copies and runs at both sites.
  • The bundle that deletes a copy drops its own failure for it (finalize.rs:364). A deleted copy is no HMR root, which removes the panic. Debug builds check the rule.
  • Verified: 8 tests in test/bake/dev/bundle.test.ts and css.test.ts fail on a debug build of main and pass here. test/bake passes otherwise (Notes).
  • Self-reviewed: 47 concerns raised, 45 addressed. Rejected: free the deleted copy's code (another bug), one same-save case (needs 77fc219).

Background

Downsides

  • These errors stay, as on main: a deleted file, a stylesheet under an @import, two "use client" cases (Notes).
  • One case gets worse: a true error can show one save late.
  • Release .text: +2,304 bytes. receive_chunk: +2 instructions per client file that did not fail.
Notes

Sites. retract_failure has five callers: the client and server arms of receive_chunk, receive_css_child, disconnect_and_delete_file and insert_css_file_on_server. IncrementalResult::added_failure_for and SerializedFailure::file_owner replace two hand-written scans of failures_added. disconnect_and_delete_file also clears is_hmr_root of the deleted copy.

Where this differs from the commits on #39488.

  1. No retract in on_file_deleted. 705c392 has one line there. Vim and Neovim save a file by rename, and the watcher reports a delete. With that line on main, such a save takes the error of a failing page back. An open "Build Failed" tab then reloads at zero errors. I ran an earlier cut with that line (release, Linux x64). The tab did not show the fixed page after 8 of 20 Neovim saves and 9 of 20 Vim saves. A comment on #39488 asks which form is wanted.
  2. retract_failure uses debug_assert! for a failed file that has no failure. 705c392 keeps the release panic of two of the three inline copies. The third copy, in receive_css_child, already continues on main. A release build now clears the flag and continues. A debug build stops there, and at the new check.
  3. The deleted client copy keeps its failure when a client file still imports it. 77fc219 keeps such a copy alive at the call site and bundles it again. That change needs its own PR. This PR removes the two debug_assert!(lists.first_dep.is_none()) of disconnect_and_delete_file, so a debug build does what a release build does.
  4. 705c392 also frees the code and the source map of the deleted copy. That repairs a leak, not a failure, and needs its own test.
  5. 280dee7 also clears the stale bit in insert_css_file_on_server. Not here. On main the server record of a stylesheet stays stale. Each bundle of a file that imports the stylesheet bundles it again. With the bit cleared, three cases got worse in my runs. import text from "./styles.css" with { type: "text" } of the same file throws ReferenceError: import_styles is not defined. A save of the page no longer reports an @import of a deleted file. A stylesheet from an onLoad plugin is not made again.
  6. The drop of the pending resolution log and of the failures_added entry of the deleted copy is new.
  7. No repair at the save of a server stylesheet (d79905e). That save bundles the stylesheet alone and does not reach insert_css_file_on_server. The error goes at the next bundle of a file that imports the stylesheet. With the release default that is the next request. With BUN_ASSUME_PERFECT_INCREMENTAL=1 it is a save of the importer.

Tests. Each clause has a test that fails without it. I made one build for each clause.

  • removing 'use client' from a component that failed to build takes its build error back (separateSSRGraph true and false): the retract in disconnect_and_delete_file.
  • ... that never built ...: the pending resolution log (swap_remove in finalize.rs).
  • ... takes back the build error that the same bundle gave it: the failures_added entry (retain in finalize.rs).
  • a framework route recovers from a stylesheet that failed on its first load (two settings): the retract in insert_css_file_on_server. Without it the debug check stops the dev server: "a failure has no failed file".
  • a component that another client component imports keeps its build error when it loses 'use client': the has_importer branch. A release build of main passes this test. A debug build of main stops at debug_assert!(lists.first_dep.is_none()).
  • a component that built keeps the build error of the save that removes its 'use client': the is_hmr_root line. Without it, the trace of the kept failure stops the dev server with the panic above. A release build of main fails this test in 4 of 10 runs. A debug build of main stops at the same assert each time.

Errors that stay, as on main.

  • A deleted file.
  • A stylesheet that only an @import reaches, and that fails on its first load under a server file. The server graph has no site that inserts such a file again.
  • A component that never built, with separateSSRGraph: true. The bundle that removes "use client" does not delete its client copy.
  • A component that another client component imports. Its error stays on the deleted copy, with no file name.

The case that gets worse. A component never built for the browser. One save removes its "use client" and makes another client component import it. Main keeps the browser error, with no file name, and never takes it back. This PR drops that error. It shows again, with the file name, at the next save of the importer. The repair belongs with the change of 77fc219.

Measurements (release builds of cee9dd9 and of this PR, Linux x64).

  • .text section: 110,632,729 to 110,635,033 bytes (+2,304). Stripped bun: +4,096 bytes.
  • By symbol: finalize_bundle_inner +1,951 (it holds the inlined server arm of receive_chunk), client receive_chunk +135, insert_css_file_on_server +127, receive_css_child +31, report_html_routes_without_html +18.
  • Client arm of receive_chunk, existing file that did not fail: +2 instructions and 0 stores (objdump). The two are a bounds check and a reload of the slice pointer. The server arm has the same test of failed and 0 new stores.
  • A bundle with no failed file and no deleted client copy: no new allocation, syscall or map lookup.
  • Debug builds: one pass over the files of both graphs for each bundle.

Platforms. I ran this on Linux x64 only (debug with ASAN, and release). CI build 136658 finished with no test/bake failure on any lane (Linux, macOS, Windows). On Windows 2019 x64 and on macOS aarch64 I read the logs: bundle.test.ts and css.test.ts ran in jobs that passed. The new tests delete no file.

Suites (debug build, after the last commit): the 27 files of test/bake, the 6 test/js/bun/http/bun-serve-html*.test.ts files, bun-serve-routes.test.ts, serve-directory-routes.test.ts and test/cli/inspect/BunFrontendDevServer.test.ts. Some tests of test/bake/dev/production.test.ts time out at 5 s on the debug build, with and without this change. They pass on the release build. On a release build of main, 6 of the 8 new tests fail in each run.

Other open PRs (git merge-tree). Clean: #47062, #46901, #46983, #47016, #46846, #47046, #46990, #47017. Text conflicts: #39488 (the same helper), #47094 and #46957 (the import lines of css.test.ts).

Self-review. A review of an earlier, larger cut raised 27 concerns. 18 of them were about a rule for deleted and un-imported files, and that rule is not in this PR. A second check of this cut raised 20.

…serted again

A file has `failed` set exactly when `bundling_failures` holds its failure.
Two paths broke that rule, and the build error then stayed until a restart:

- A client component loses "use client". The server graph deletes the client
  copy of the component, and the failure of that copy stayed.
- A stylesheet that a server file imports fails on its first load.
  `insert_css_file_on_server` later wrote a new `File` over the failed one,
  and the failure stayed without its flag.

`IncrementalGraph::retract_failure` clears the flag and removes the failure at
each site that ends or resets a failed file. It replaces three inline copies.
A build with debug assertions checks the rule after each bundle.

This is the `retract_failure` item of #39488 (705c392, 280dee7), without
the retract in `on_file_deleted`.

Walkthrough

The dev server now retracts recorded build failures when graph files recover or are replaced. It tracks deleted client-file owners through chunk receipt and checks failure entries against failed files. New tests cover client-component hot reload and CSS recovery under both incremental settings.

Changes

Incremental failure lifecycle

Layer / File(s) Summary
Failure ownership and graph updates
src/runtime/bake/dev_server/serialized_failure.rs, src/runtime/bake/dev_server/mod.rs, src/runtime/bake/dev_server/incremental_graph.rs
Serialized failures expose client or server file owners. IncrementalGraph retracts failure state when files are replaced or recover, and reports whether deleted client files still have importers.
Chunk finalization and failure checks
src/runtime/bake/dev_server/finalize.rs, src/runtime/bake/dev_server/failures.rs, src/runtime/bake/dev_server/mod.rs
Chunk finalization removes failure entries for a deleted client owner. Route reporting checks added failures by owner, and debug assertions compare failed files with recorded failures.
Hot-reload and CSS regression tests
test/bake/dev/bundle.test.ts, test/bake/dev/css.test.ts
Tests cover client-component build errors during hot reload and malformed CSS recovery under both incremental settings.

Possibly related issues

  • oven-sh/bun#31908: The changes retract CSS failure state during recovery, but the issue also describes a separate route-update payload defect.
  • oven-sh/bun#43391: The changes retract failure state when files are inserted or replaced. The issue also mentions a possible alias-resolution cache cause.

Explanation

The title names the main change: a build error for a file that is demoted from client component or inserted again is taken back. The changeset adds IncrementalGraph::retract_failure, which clears the failure flag and removes the bundling_failures entry, and applies it at the affected sites. The title is specific and matches the primary fix described in the objectives and description.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The pull request description is complete and relevant. It explains the problem, the implementation, the affected cases, known limitations, and verification results. The content uses different headings from the template, but it covers the required purpose and verification information in detail.

Status

  • Reproduced on main (Linux x64): the 8 new tests in test/bake/dev/bundle.test.ts and test/bake/dev/css.test.ts fail on a debug build. On a release build, 6 of them fail in each run, and the test for the panic fails in 4 of 10 runs. The shortest case: components/Comp.ts is a "use client" file whose browser build fails with Browser build cannot import Bun builtin: "bun". Remove "use client" from it. The dev server keeps the error and the open "Build Failed" tab does not reload.
  • With this branch the 8 tests pass on both builds.
  • CI (build 136658): the build finished with no test/bake failure on any lane (Linux, macOS, Windows). The red jobs are test/aot tests and test/bundler/compile-aot-size.test.ts. They fail on main too.

🟣 pre-existing, not blocking: With separateSSRGraph, a developer whose SSR copy of a file fails while its RSC copy prints gets an error overlay the dev server can never clear, and the route is served as if clean. Both copies share one server File; incremental_graph.rs:787 retracts unconditionally, so a failure that finalize.rs:299-302 or failures.rs:378 added for the twin in this same bundle is removed from bundling_failures while staying in failures_added. Fix: guard the server-arm retract like receive_css_child does at incremental_graph.rs:1106, skipping retract_failure when added_failure_for(owner) is true, and cover the client arm at :653 the same way.
A small fix can ride a push you are already making; otherwise a short reply is enough.

Why this was flagged

Trigger: separateSSRGraph bundles the Server and Ssr parts of one path in one js_chunk; both reach dev.server_graph.receive_chunk at finalize.rs:345-362 with the same key. If the earlier-ordered part fails (print error inserted at finalize.rs:299-302, or a parse failure inserted at failures.rs:377-378), insert_failure at incremental_graph.rs:1565-1597 sets failed, adds the entry and pushes to failures_added. The later part then hits found_existing and incremental_graph.rs:787 calls retract_failure, which clears failed, removes the entry and pushes to failures_removed. index_failures at failures.rs:223-251 still sends the failure as added, so the browser overlay shows it, but bundling_failures lacks it: finalize.rs:779 treats the server as error-free, and no later bundle can retract it because retract_failure returns early at :375 when failed is false. The base inline copy did retract the same way, but this PR introduces the added_failure_for guard (:1106, mod.rs:181) and applies it only to receive_css_child, leaving :787 and :653 without it.

Verification: Pre-existing. Triggering condition: separateSSRGraph: true and a "use client" file whose Ssr-target parse fails while its Server-target reference proxy builds in the same bundle. incremental_graph.rs:787 unconditionally clears failed while failures_added still holds it. The replaced inline block (diff -769..-780) retracted unconditionally in exactly the same way.

This line keeps what main does: the inline copy also took the failure back with no guard. I leave it so in this PR.

A guard here changes the state of a file that both server graphs bundle. The file then stays failed after one copy fails and the other copy builds. I have no test that reaches that state (a parse or print failure of only one of the two copies), so I cannot show that the guard is right. It needs its own change, with a separateSSRGraph: true test.

🟣 pre-existing, not blocking: In release builds, a developer who removes "use client" from a component that another client file still imports, while that component has an unresolved import, gets an error entry with an empty file name that no later save can clear. disconnect_and_delete_file at incremental_graph.rs:576 empties the key and returns false at :580, so finalize.rs:364-374 skips dropping the pending resolution log. prepare_and_log_resolution_failures at failures.rs:136-139 then inserts a failure on the tombstoned slot. Fix: drop the resolution_failure_entries log for the client index whenever the slot is tombstoned, not only when deleted_file is Some; or do not tombstone a slot that still has importers.
A small fix can ride a push you are already making; otherwise a short reply is enough.

Why this was flagged

Trigger: release build; a save removes "use client" from a component that another client component imports, and the component has a failing import so get_log_for_resolution_failures (failures.rs:399-409) recorded a log keyed by the client index. The server arm calls disconnect_and_delete_file (incremental_graph.rs:776); has_importer is true at :551, so :569-571 skip retract_failure, :576 writes Box::default() over the key, and :580 returns false. finalize.rs:364 only cleans resolution_failure_entries when the return was true, so the log survives. finalize.rs:578 runs prepare_and_log_resolution_failures, which calls insert_failure(Index) at failures.rs:136-139 on the tombstoned slot; incremental_graph.rs:1579-1581 derives owner_display_name from the now-empty key, so the overlay shows a failure with no file name. Because the key is empty, no later receive_chunk can find the slot, so retract_failure never runs and bundling_failures stays non-empty, which blocks the reload at finalize.rs:779 forever. The base behaves the same, but the PR adds the cleanup for the sibling branch only and documents this branch as supported at :550. Remedy: swap_remove the pending log and failures_added entry for the client index whenever the slot is tombstoned.

Verification: pre-existing — acknowledged in diff: the doc comment at src/runtime/bake/dev_server/incremental_graph.rs:542 ("Returns false if a file still imports the deleted file. The slot then keeps its failure.") states this. The base's disconnect_and_delete_file (base incremental_graph.rs:527-557) does exactly the same thing on this path, so the base already produces the identical tombstoned, empty-name failure.

Correct, and the same as on main. I keep it in this PR.

In this state another client file still imports the copy, so the pending failure is a true error. To drop it hides the error. To keep it leaves it on a slot that no build finds. The repair is to keep a client copy that a client file still imports (77fc219 on #39488). That is a change of its own.

`disconnect_and_delete_file` keeps the failure of a client copy that a
client file still imports, so an importer is an input that it handles.
The test for that case now runs on every build.

Major follow-up Keep the browser error for a tombstoned client file that another changed client file imports.

549-549: Major · Stability & Availability · Heavy lift

Keep the browser error for a tombstoned client file that another changed client file imports.

The panic follows only when a changed client file imports the demoted boundary's client copy in the same bundle. An unchanged importer does not schedule the copy.

The demoted boundary's client copy keeps its is_hmr_root flag after its key is tombstoned. When a changed client importer parses that copy in the same bundle, the copy's browser resolution error is inserted under the tombstoned index. index_failures then traces that index. trace_dependencies looks up the empty key in the server graph and panics with "Server Incremental Graph is missing component".

Skipping the failure entry would hide a real browser error. A fix must keep that error and must also handle the outgoing-import and watcher removals that disconnect_and_delete_file performs before the tombstone decision.

This path already exists at the merge base. This change keeps it reachable and does not extend it.

Attribution

The defect predates this change. The merge base has the same importer-retained tombstone path. Only the no-importer branch changed.

Note: this behaviour predates this PR (already present at merge base 3f3a9ff87cdc); the change keeps it reachable.

Update the `has_importer` tombstone decision so a changed client importer’s
browser resolution error remains indexed under a key that `trace_dependencies`
can resolve in the server graph. Account for the outgoing-import and watcher
removals performed by `disconnect_and_delete_file`; do not discard the failure
or leave `index_failures` tracing a tombstoned key.
Minor follow-up Retract the failure of a deleted client copy when its last importer edge is removed.

566-569: Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Retract the failure of a deleted client copy when its last importer edge is removed.

A client file that is deleted while another client file still imports it keeps its failure in bundling_failures. Removing the last import edge does not retract that failure. The stale entry stays in build-failure responses. This behavior predates this PR, and the PR does not change the edge-removal paths.

Update the edge-removal paths so deleting a client file’s last importer edge
retracts its failure from build-failure responses. Check that the file is
tombstoned and has no remaining importer edges before calling retract_failure;
preserve failures while any importer edge remains.

The test now reads the error overlay after the save, so it fails when the
error goes or when another error takes its place.

About the two follow-up findings in the CodeRabbit review. Both describe the state of main, and this PR does not change it.

  1. The panic Server Incremental Graph is missing component for a deleted client copy that a changed client file imports in the same bundle. No change here.
  2. The failure of a deleted client copy that stays after its last importer is gone. I did not take the suggested retract at the edge removal, because it does not cover every order. From reading the code (not run): two nested components lose "use client" in one save. The slot of the inner one loses its last importer in pass 1. prepare_and_log_resolution_failures then puts its pending resolution failure on that slot, and no site takes it back.

Both states go away when the dev server keeps the client copy of a component that a client file still imports. That is 77fc219 on #39488. It is a change of its own.

A deleted client copy that a client file still imports keeps its failure.
The trace of that failure took the slot for the client half of a boundary,
looked for its server file by the empty key and stopped the dev server:
`Server Incremental Graph is missing component for ""`.

An update to my comment above: 90a7ad9 repairs item 1. A deleted client copy is no HMR root any more, so the trace of a failure that it keeps does not look for a server file by the empty key. The commit has a test for it.

Item 2 stays as it is.

I re-reviewed the latest push and found no new bugs; because this reworks how the dev server keeps File.failed and bundling_failures in step across client/server graphs, with several acknowledged cases where an error still stays, a look from someone who owns the Bake dev server would still be worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

  • The new is_hmr_root = false write on a tombstoned slot (incremental_graph.rs:576): traced both readers — trace_dependencies now recurses to the slot's importers instead of looking up the server graph by an empty key, and invalidate (:1762) only reaches a slot by path, which an empty key never matches.
  • retract_failure against the three inline copies it replaces: same clear/remove/push sequence, with the release panic in the two receive_chunk arms now a debug assert that continues.
  • insert_css_file_on_server reorder: edge_lists.push before the value write keeps the slot/edge-list lengths in step on the new-file path.
  • The five new bundle.test.ts cases and two css.test.ts cases each assert specific error text or a reload/message, and none are gated off on debug or ASAN lanes.
Extended reasoning...

The change touches five Rust files under src/runtime/bake/dev_server/ (failures, finalize, incremental_graph, mod, serialized_failure) plus two existing bake dev test files, centralizing failure retraction into IncrementalGraph::retract_failure, changing disconnect_and_delete_file and receive_chunk return types, and adding a debug-only invariant check after index_failures. It touches no auth, crypto, injection or data-exposure surface; it is dev-server state bookkeeping. The hunt exited on a dry streak and the latest commit addresses the trace panic raised on the previous push with a fix and a regression test. It is not approved because the change is a multi-commit rework of graph failure invariants rather than a simple or mechanical edit, the author's own description lists several cases where errors still persist, and earlier inline threads carry author replies but no independent resolution.

…hat a server graph bundled"

This reverts commit d490d29.

The change fixes the failure record of a plain stylesheet of a server
file. That is not about CSS modules, and #47673 changes the same
bookkeeping. A CSS module does not need it: the class-name module of a
copy rewrites the server record of that copy.
