bun:test: store a spy on a native custom value the way an assignment does - #47883
spyOn(Error, "prepareStackTrace") turns a writable data property into a getter with no setter. A store throws TypeError: Attempted to assign to readonly property., and the engine never calls the spy.
So do Module.prototype.require, globalThis.onmessage, onerror and 51 constructor properties.
Cause: spyOn (JSMockFunction.cpp, bun test: Vitest compatibility #44833, not released) installs GetterSetter(getter, undefined) where the property is no plain value.
Fix
spyOn gives the spy to the native setter of the object's own custom value, as a store does. mockRestore() gives it the original. Native code then calls the spy.
Verified: test/js/bun/test/mock-fn.test.js (18 tests, main fails all), capture-stack-trace.test.js, one --aot test. Self-reviewed: 8 concerns raised, 6 addressed. One was not reproduced, one needs a loader change.
Background
A custom value is a data property to script. Native code computes it with a C++ getter, and sometimes a C++ setter.
@Jarred-Sumner, please rule on the design. The 9-line alternative is a data-property spy that native code never calls.
Downsides
bun test --aot: jest.requireActual() keeps calling a restored spy on Module.prototype.require. A compiled require() takes 1,412 ns (24 before). Plain stores do so on main.
Release .text +768 B. A plain spyOn() and mockRestore() pair: 2,677 instructions, as on main.
Notes
The design choice. Three ways to spy on an own custom value that has a native setter. Debug builds of main 675ee5b97b, of the 9-line alternative, and of this PR:

This PR: the spy goes to the native setter.
A TypeError for these properties that names the store holder[key] = mock(holder[key]), and a data property for the others. It is loud where option 3 is silent.
A data property for all of them (descriptor.isDataDescriptor() in the Value arm, 9 lines). The table shows what it leaves.
Node.js v26.3.0 with @vitest/spy 4.1.9 gives a data property and 1 call for a stack and for a require(). Node.js has no globalThis.onmessage. A plain store of mock(original) already gets these calls on main. What the spy adds is mockRestore(), restoreAllMocks() and the restore at the end of a test file.
Which properties take which route.
Native setter: Error.prepareStackTrace, Module.prototype.require, globalThis.onmessage and onerror once a function is stored, and module.exports of a compiled CommonJS file under --aot.
Data property: the constructor of 51 prototypes such as URL.prototype, console.Console when spyOn is its first read, and every object that only inherits a custom value. mockRestore() puts the native getter back, or deletes the own property.
A frozen holder takes the same routes. A spy already replaces a method of a frozen object.
A scan of 3,884 function-valued data properties of built-in objects: spyOn changes the kind of 53 on main and of 0 with this PR.
Not covered.
Module._resolveFilename and Module.runMain are native accessors, not custom values. Their spy keeps the setter (bun test: Vitest compatibility #44833). The loader does not call a spy on Module._resolveFilename (0 calls, a plain store gets 2), on main and here.
A holder behind a Proxy: after spyOn(new Proxy(Error, {}), "prepareStackTrace") and mockRestore() the native getter and setter are gone for the process. The engine ignores a later store. Main does the same.
Object.defineProperty or delete under the spy leaves native code on the spy until mockRestore(). mockRestore() then puts the native getter and setter back.
A value that is not a function. spyOn(module, "exports") on a compiled CommonJS file whose exports are an object throws under --aot, as on main. A plain run makes a value spy.
bun test --aot. The two items of the first Downsides bullet are in the loader of compiled runs, not in spyOn. This PR makes a spy reach them.
Stale function: Module.prototype.require = f, a jest.requireActual(), Module.prototype.require = original, a second jest.requireActual(). On main under --aot the second call still runs f. Plain bun test runs the original. With a restored Jest spy in the place of f, the call returns undefined.
Slow path: setterRequireFunction tells the compiled loader that require is replaced on every store, also when the original comes back. Module._resolveFilename tells it that the original is back. In an experiment the same answer for require brought the compiled path back (debug build: 4,455 ns per call, 178,165 ns without). The setter has no reference to the original to compare with: in a compiled run the builtin is another function object. node:module: watch Module._resolveFilename and Module.prototype.require as data properties #47763 deletes this setter.
The compiled run agrees with the plain run for what the new test prints: a stack, a require() of a compiled file, the exports of a compiled CommonJS file, console.Console, delete under the spy.
node:module: make Module the class of CommonJS module objects #47848 makes CommonJS module objects inherit Module.prototype. With this PR a store m.require = fn on such an object under the spy makes an own property. The test stores on Object.create(Module.prototype). The PR that lands second can add the new Module(id) form.
Self-review. 8 concerns raised, 6 addressed.
Addressed in the code: the fallback for a setter that refuses is deleted. The ReadOnly test is deleted, so a frozen holder takes the native setter too. The comment in modules.builtins.ts is one line.
Addressed in this text: what the alternative loses, the limit of the native-setter route, the slow require() after a restore under --aot.
Not reproduced: "a stack that is first read after its frames returned does not reach the spy". 12 runs on the debug and release builds gave 1 call each.
Not fixed here: the stale function of jest.requireActual() under --aot. It needs a change in the compiled loader.
After review.
A spy on the getter or setter that sits on top of the spy stays when the lower spy is restored first. It puts the native getter and setter back when it is restored itself.
Each inner test of the --aot test asserts the calls and the state after the restore. One calls jest.requireActual() after the restore of the spy on Module.prototype.require. The shared helper of that file requires exit code 0 of the plain run. All 47 tests of the file pass with it.
Measurements (linux x64, main 675ee5b97b).
GC cells per spy on a custom value: data property route Function +0, GetterSetter +0 (main +2, +1). Native setter route InternalFieldTuple +1 (main Function +2, GetterSetter +1).
sizeof(JSMockFunction) 200 bytes and 15 GC-visited slots, both as on main.
Native setter calls for one unused spyOn() and mockRestore(): 2 (main 0). Native getter calls per spyOn(): 2 (main 2).
Structures of Module.prototype across spyOn() and mockRestore(): 1 (main 3, and require moved behind _compile). The data property route still moves constructor to the end of the own keys on restore, as on main.
Per symbol: spyOn +355 B, putBackOriginal +330 B, the default formatter -33 B. The table of built-ins for --aot is byte-identical.
Idle spy on Error.prepareStackTrace and six library calls that capture a stack on a non-Error object (axios, node-fetch, verror, bluebird, depd, http-errors): 0 throw. Without the formatter change 4 throw First argument must be an Error object.
Instruction counts are stepi counts in gdb on release builds. The time per require() is a loop of 2,000,000 calls on the release builds.

Error.captureStackTrace() takes any object and hands it to
Error.prepareStackTrace. A callback that calls the default formatter
with its own arguments passed that object on, and the default formatter
threw "First argument must be an Error object".
The default formatter now formats any object, as V8 does. A value that
is not an object still throws a TypeError.

…t does
Native code keeps some function-valued properties as a JSC custom
value: a native getter, and sometimes a native setter, behind what
script sees as a writable data property. spyOn(object, key) replaced
such a property with an accessor that had a getter and no setter. Under
the spy a strict store threw a TypeError, a store on an object that
inherits the property threw or was dropped, and native code never
called the spy.
Where the object's own custom value has a native setter, spyOn now
calls that setter with the spy, as a store does, and mockRestore()
calls it with the original value. These are Error.prepareStackTrace,
Module.prototype.require, globalThis.onmessage and onerror, and the
exports of a compiled CommonJS module. The engine, the module loader
and event dispatch then call the spy.
Where a custom value has no setter (the constructor of 51 prototypes,
console.Console on its first read) or the object only inherits it, the
spy is a data property, which is what a store makes there.
Status: ready for review. The fix and the review follow-ups are pushed (31c7d8622b). A maintainer decides the design question in the PR body.
CI (build 137417): one test is red here and not on main: test/bundler/compile-trim-capabilities.test.ts, on the macOS lanes. The reported bytes show a false alarm of the scan, not a call. The scan (test/bundler/what-an-executable-can-call.ts) reads the whole __TEXT segment of a Mach-O file as instructions, and both reported places are data:
macOS x64, dlopen at 0x107108351. The e8 in front of it is the first byte of a RemovedRange record (src/trim/removable_features/state.rs:23), which --trim writes into the executable. The bytes decode as { start: -12664856, size: 32, feature: 128, reserved: 0 }. The record in front of it has size 16 and feature 139. The start of the next record is 40 more.
macOS arm64, posix_spawn at 0x106fe1aec. The word 17d6e066 reads as a b to a place 10.78 MB back. llvm-mc with every AArch64 feature decodes none of the 4 words in front of it, and not the word behind it.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
The PR updates spyOn installation and restoration for custom property values, including native setters. It also changes the default Error.prepareStackTrace formatter to accept object arguments and adds tests for both changes.
Changes
Native property spies
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Install and restore spies on custom values src/codegen/builtins/host/modules.builtins.ts, src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp
spyOn writes spies through native setters when present and records the original custom storage and value for restoration. For other data properties, it stores the mock while preserving descriptor flags. Restoration handles both paths.
Tests cover native-setter and other custom-value spies, observed calls, property attributes, and restoration across plain, AOT, and Bun-only cases.
Default stack formatter
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Format stacks for object arguments src/jsc/bindings/FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp, test/js/node/v8/capture-stack-trace.test.js
The default formatter accepts any object instead of requiring an ErrorInstance. Tests cover plain and error-like objects, and verify that non-object arguments produce a TypeError.

Explanation
The title names the main change: spyOn on a native custom value now stores the spy the way an assignment does. The changeset matches this. The spy goes to the native setter when one exists, and the change is in JSMockFunction.cpp with matching tests. The title is specific and omits the default Error.prepareStackTrace formatter change, which is expected.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#41151, #46393] Both issues concern the default Error.prepareStackTrace rejecting non-Error objects from Error.captureStackTrace when a delegating wrapper calls it. In src/jsc/bindings/FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp (+3/-2), jsFunctionDefaultErrorPrepareStackTrace now reads callFrame->argument(0).getObject() instead of requiring an ErrorInstance. Plain objects and objects inheriting from Error.prototype are therefore accepted, as #46393 requests. The #41151 custom error shape (a CustomError.prototype = new Error() instance passed to Error.captureStackTrace(this, this.constructor)) reaches the same formatter path. Non-object arguments still throw TypeError. The added tests in test/js/node/v8/capture-stack-trace.test.js (+40) install a delegating formatter and cover plain objects, ES5-style errors, prototype-less objects, direct formatting, and rejection of undefined, null, numbers, and strings. The reviewed summary shows no change to this formatter path since the previous review. Limit: the required behavior is established from the summary and the author's reported test runs. I did not run the tests.

Explanation
The linked issues do not mention spyOn, mock restoration, native setters, or Module.prototype.require. The changes below implement a separate spyOn design. They do not implement the requirements of #41151 or #46393: (1) src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp (+63/-3) adds native-setter routing, custom-data-property restoration, and descriptor handling in spyOn and mockRestore(). (2) src/codegen/builtins/host/modules.builtins.ts (+1) adds a comment that documents this native-setter routing. (3) test/js/bun/test/mock-fn.test.js (+309) tests spy behavior on Error.prepareStackTrace, Module.prototype.require, global event handlers, constructors, frozen holders, inherited properties, and cleanup. (4) test/aot/tests-replace-members-of-built-ins.test.ts (+61) tests spies on native-setter values under --aot, including console.Console and CommonJS exports, and changes expectCompiledToRunAsPlain to require exit code 0. The PR description states that this work fixes a separate problem: spyOn on a custom value installs a getter without a setter. The description also lists unresolved --aot limits, including a stale require function after restoration. The formatter change is in scope. The spy work is not, because the linked issues do not require it. The author's statement that an idle spy needs the formatter change explains why the formatter change is needed. It does not explain why the spy changes are needed for #41151 or #46393.
Resolution
Move the spyOn and restoration changes in src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp, the comment in src/codegen/builtins/host/modules.builtins.ts, the spy tests in test/js/bun/test/mock-fn.test.js, and the additions to test/aot/tests-replace-members-of-built-ins.test.ts to a separate pull request. Link that pull request to the issue for the spyOn native-custom-value behavior. Keep the FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp change and the additions to test/js/node/v8/capture-stack-trace.test.js in this pull request. If a spy test in mock-fn.test.js checks only the formatter with an idle spy, move it to capture-stack-trace.test.js and keep it here.

Unverified finding
We couldn't verify this from the code. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Restoration passes the original function through the setter again, but may not restore setter-maintained override state. The supplied Module.prototype.require setter signals willChangeRequireOverride(..., true) on a write; doing so on both installation and restoration could leave compiled require() on its override path after the original function is back.
Compiled module loading remains slower after restoration despite the property and callable value appearing restored.
This can occur when: An AOT program spies on Module.prototype.require, restores it, then repeatedly calls compiled require().

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline findings, I also checked GC rooting of the new InternalFieldTuple that stashes the custom cell and original value — it lands in m_spyOriginal, a WriteBarrier visited in visitChildren, so it is not a dangling reference; and the native-setter call in spyOn is followed by an exception check, so a throwing setter propagates rather than leaving a half-installed spy. Spying on a frozen holder (both the native-setter and the setter-less route) was also examined and does not trip the install path.
Extended reasoning...
The change adds a custom-value branch to spyOn in src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp (native setter route plus a plain-data-property fallback) with a matching restore branch in putBackOriginal, relaxes the first-argument check of the default Error.prepareStackTrace in src/jsc/bindings/FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp, and adds tests. It touches no security-sensitive surface. Four confirmed findings are posted inline (idle-spy stack text differences, --aot require restore state, value-spy restore clobbering a getter spy, and non-callable exports under --aot), so a human needs to weigh them; this note only records what else was checked and ruled out.
Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):
🟣 src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp — Under bun test --aot, spyOn(module, "exports") on a CommonJS file whose exports is an object throws, while the same test passes in a plain run. The new custom-value route at JSMockFunction.cpp:3263 sits after the callable check at JSMockFunction.cpp:3231, so a data descriptor whose value is not a function still hits "Cannot spy on the exports property because it is not a function; object given instead". A plain run sees a plain data property and installs a value spy. Fix: for a data descriptor backed by a custom value, accept a non-callable value the way easymode does (pushImpl ReturnValue, then the native setter or putDirect), so compiled and plain runs agree for object and function exports alike.
Why this was flagged
Trigger: bun test --aot with greet.cjs containing module.exports = { greet() {} } and a test calling spyOn(require.cache[path], "exports"). Under --aot the module object has exports as a CustomGetterSetter with CustomValue (src/jsc/bindings/BunCompiledModules.cpp:632-633), so getPropertySlot at JSMockFunction.cpp:3091 is not a value slot and the call goes to hardmode. JSMockFunction.cpp:3229 reads the object and JSMockFunction.cpp:3231 throws because it is not callable, before the new data-descriptor branch at JSMockFunction.cpp:3263 can run. In a plain run exports is an ordinary data property, so easymode at JSMockFunction.cpp:3148 installs a value spy via pushImpl ReturnValue at JSMockFunction.cpp:3196. The base branch throws too, but this PR adds the custom-value route for exactly this property and the new test test/aot/tests-replace-members-of-built-ins.test.ts only uses a function export; the dominant form module.exports = {...} is the sibling input left out.
Verification: Trigger: bun test --aot with a CommonJS file whose module.exports is a non-function value and spyOn(require.cache[path], "exports"). Hardmode reads the value at src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp:3229 and throws at :3231-3235 when it is not callable, before the custom-value route at :3263-3285. The base commit has the identical throw at base :3208-3213.

🟡 (optional) Tests that spy on Error.prepareStackTrace with no implementation now get different error.stack text, and no error.line/column, for every error in the process. The idle spy calls jsFunctionDefaultErrorPrepareStackTrace (FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp:808), which formats through CallSite::formatAsString instead of the native formatter. Fix: make the default formatter produce the native path's output for an ErrorInstance (same frame text, and line/column/sourceURL set), e.g. by delegating to Bun::formatStackTrace while the error still carries its frames. The PR lists this as a downside (24 of 38 frame kinds); on the base branch the engine never reached the spy, so stack text was unchanged.
Why this was flagged
A test calls spyOn(Error, "prepareStackTrace") and leaves it idle, which JSMockFunction.cpp:3268 now hands to errorConstructorPrepareStackTraceSetter, so m_errorConstructorPrepareStackTraceValue becomes the spy. Every later error.stack read goes through computeErrorInfoWithPrepareStackTrace (FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp:510-599), which builds CallSite objects and never writes the line, column or sourceURL out-params that the native path sets at FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp:415-419, so materializeErrorInfoIfNeeded stores 0/empty for error.line, error.column and error.sourceURL. The spy then calls jsFunctionDefaultErrorPrepareStackTrace (FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp:808), whose frames come from CallSite::formatAsString (CallSite.cpp:138-217): it never emits the "async " prefix the native formatter writes at FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp:453-455. On the base branch the spy was installed as a getter and the engine read m_errorConstructorPrepareStackTraceValue directly, so stack text and error.line were the native ones.
Verification: JSMockFunction.cpp:3268 hands the mock to errorConstructorPrepareStackTraceSetter, which stores it in m_errorConstructorPrepareStackTraceValue. FormatStackTraceForJS.cpp:628-634 then takes computeErrorInfoWithPrepareStackTrace (510-599), which never assigns line, column or sourceURL; the native path sets them at 415-419. On base the field stayed empty and stacks under the idle spy were formatted natively.

Confirmed. This PR does not change it.
With this PR a spy with no implementation is a stored formatter, so it has the effects of one. On main (675ee5b97b), Error.prepareStackTrace = (e, s) => original(e, s) gives the same result: 24 of 38 probed frame kinds print other text, error.line and error.column are 0, and error.sourceURL is absent. I measured both on main and on this branch. The PR body has it under Downsides.
The difference between the default formatter and the path without a formatter is #46494. A default formatter that prints what the native path prints belongs to that issue. It helps every wrapper, not only a spy.

🟡 (optional) Under bun test --aot, restoring a spy on Module.prototype.require leaves the compiled loader in its overridden mode, so every later require() stays on the slow path and, per the PR notes, a later jest.requireActual() returns undefined. The restore at JSMockFunction.cpp:1023 hands the original to setterRequireFunction, which passes isOverridden = true to willChangeRequireOverride (NodeModuleModule.cpp:615) whatever the value is. Fix: a restore must tell the loader the original is back, e.g. detect the builtin require in setterRequireFunction and pass !isOriginal, as setNodeModuleResolveFilename does at NodeModuleModule.cpp:438-450. The PR text calls this a loader issue; the flag is set in this repo.
Why this was flagged
A test run with bun test --aot calls spyOn(Module.prototype, "require") and later mockRestore(), restoreAllMocks() or reaches the end of the file. On the base branch spyOn installed an accessor and never reached setterRequireFunction, so the compiled loader stayed in its compiled require path and jest.requireActual() kept working. With this change spyOn at JSMockFunction.cpp:3268 and the restore at JSMockFunction.cpp:1023 both go through putThroughNativeSetter into setterRequireFunction (NodeModuleModule.cpp:608-623), which calls Bun::willChangeRequireOverride(globalObject, JSC::AOT::RequireOverride::RequireFunction, true) unconditionally at NodeModuleModule.cpp:615, even when the value stored is the original builtin. The PR description measures the result: a compiled require() takes 1,412 ns after the restore instead of 24 ns, and a jest.requireActual() made during the spy followed by one after the restore returns undefined because the loader keeps calling the restored spy, which has no implementation.
Verification: Restore at src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp:1023 hands the original back through the same native setter. setterRequireFunction, src/jsc/modules/NodeModuleModule.cpp:608-623, calls Bun::willChangeRequireOverride with true (line 615), whatever value is stored. So a restore of the spy tells the compiled loader "require is overridden" even though the original has just been reinstated.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Confirmed. It is in Downsides: a compiled require() takes 1,412 ns after the restore and 24 ns before.
I tried the suggested change. With willChangeRequireOverride(..., false) when the original comes back, the compiled path is back (debug build: 4,455 ns per call, 178,165 ns without the change). It does not repair the second item. jest.requireActual() still calls the function of the first store. On main under --aot, Module.prototype.require = f followed by Module.prototype.require = original leaves it on f too.
setterRequireFunction cannot recognise the original the way setNodeModuleResolveFilename does. The original is a builtin JavaScript function, not a host function. In a compiled run the builtin has no FunctionExecutable to compare (commonJSOverridableRequireCodeGenerator returns { nullptr, id, ... } there). So the setter needs a reference to the function of the realm on the global object.
I left the setter as it is for two reasons. The change has no effect that a test can assert without a time measurement. And #47763 deletes this setter. If a maintainer wants it in this PR, it is one field on the global object and three lines in the setter.
… restored
A spy on the getter or setter can go on top of a spy that a native
setter holds. mockRestore() of the lower spy put the native getter and
setter back, which removed the upper spy while it still reported itself
installed. The upper spy now stays until it is restored itself, and
puts the native getter and setter back then.
In the test of compiled runs each inner test asserts the calls it
prints, and the plain run has to exit with 0.
Answers to the first review round. The follow-up commit is 0f5c20a.
Changed
A spy on the getter or setter that sits on top of the spy now stays when the lower spy is restored first. Before, mockRestore() of the lower spy removed it, and it still reported itself installed.
In the test of compiled runs each inner test asserts the calls it prints. A test where the spy is called in neither run now fails.
expectCompiledToRunAsPlain requires exit code 0 of the plain run. All 47 tests of test/aot/tests-replace-members-of-built-ins.test.ts pass with it.
spyOn(module, "exports") under --aot when the exports are an object: main throws the same TypeError, and a plain run makes a value spy. I confirmed both on main and on this branch. A value spy for a custom value that is not a function also changes spyOn(globalThis, "onmessage") while it is null, and every other custom value of that kind. That is a separate decision, so this PR does not take it. The PR body lists the case under "Not covered".
The stack text and error.line under a spy with no implementation, and the loader state after a restore under --aot: both are confirmed and answered in their threads. Both are in Downsides with numbers.
Assert the restored value and attributes in the AOT fixtures.
The "exports of a CommonJS file" and "a value with no setter behind it" fixtures log their post-restore state without asserting it. expectCompiledToRunAsPlain compares only stdout, results, and exit code between the plain and compiled runs. If a restore leaves the spy installed or changes the property attributes, both runs print the same wrong value, and the test still passes. The stack-formatter and require() fixtures in this hunk log post-restore state the same way. Apply the same assertion pattern to them.
For the console.Console fixture, capture the attributes before the spy is installed, as the other fixtures do:
Suggested fix
test("a value with no setter behind it", () => {
+ const attributes = attributesOf(console, "Console");
const spy = spyOn(console, "Console");
@@
spy.mockRestore();
- console.log(attributesOf(console, "Console"), console.Console.name);+ expect(attributesOf(console, "Console")).toBe(attributes);

1902:
In the AOT fixtures for CommonJS exports, the value with no setter, stack
formatting, and require(), replace post-restore logging with assertions that
verify the restored behavior and property attributes against the pre-spy state.
In the console.Console fixture, capture its attributes before spyOn and assert
they are restored after mockRestore; preserve the existing fixture structure and
expected behavior.
Cover jest.requireActual() after the Module.prototype.require spy is restored.
The test checks spy calls only through uses.separator(). It never calls jest.requireActual() after mockRestore(), so it cannot detect a restored spy that still receives calls on that path. The test passes on the current head. If the loader still dispatches to the restored spy, as the PR description reports, this assertion can fail until the loader change lands.
The fixture imports only expect, spyOn, and test. The suggested addition also needs jest, so import it explicitly.

…f spies
Each inner test printed the state after the restore and left the check
to the comparison with the plain run. A restore that is wrong in both
runs passed. The inner tests now assert it, and one calls
jest.requireActual() after the restore of the spy on
Module.prototype.require.
Answers to the review of 0f5c20a. The follow-up commit is 31c7d86 (tests only).
State after the restore in the compiled-run test: each inner test now asserts it. The formatter test checks that the restored spy gets no call and that the attributes are back. The exports test checks uses.greet("b"), the calls and the attributes. The require() test checks that the restored spy gets no call. Main fails 3 of the 4 inner tests in a plain run.
console.Console: the test does not read the attributes before the spy. That read runs the lazy getter, which replaces itself with a plain value, and this test is there for a spy that is the first reader. It compares the descriptor after the restore with the expected one.
jest.requireActual() after the restore: added in the suggested form. It passes in the plain run and in the compiled run: the restored spy gets 0 calls. The form that fails is a different one: one jest.requireActual() call while the spy is installed, and one more after the restore. That is the loader item in Downsides. Plain stores give the same result on main under --aot, so a test for that form cannot pass with this PR.

Downsides
bun test --aot:jest.requireActual()keeps calling a restored spy onModule.prototype.require. A compiledrequire()takes 1,412 ns (24 before). Plain stores do so on main.Error.prepareStackTraceacts as a stored formatter (A wrapper that only calls the defaultError.prepareStackTracechanges stack frames #46494). A stack read costs 17,726 instructions (8,948 without). 24 of 38 frame kinds print other text, witherror.line0..text+768 B. A plainspyOn()andmockRestore()pair: 2,677 instructions, as on main.Notes
The design choice. Three ways to spy on an own custom value that has a native setter. Debug builds of main

It is loud where option 3 is silent.descriptor.isDataDescriptor()in theValuearm, 9 lines). The table shows what it leaves.Node.js v26.3.0 with @vitest/spy 4.1.9 gives a data property and 1 call for a stack and for a
require(). Node.js has noglobalThis.onmessage. A plain store ofmock(original)already gets these calls on main. What the spy adds ismockRestore(),restoreAllMocks()and the restore at the end of a test file.Which properties take which route.

Module._resolveFilenameandModule.runMainare native accessors, not custom values. Their spy keeps the setter (bun test: Vitest compatibility #44833).

The native-setter route then servesonmessage,onerrorand the compiledmodule.exports.Module.prototype. With this PR a storem.require = fnon such an object under the spy makes an own property.
