What does this PR do?

150 separate changes, one commit each, and eight commits more. Commit 151 adds four comments that the review of part 1 asked for. Commit 152 reverts change 16 of part 5, which broke the release link. Commits 153 and 154 merge main. Commit 155 puts the null panic of part 2's change 4 back in place, for CI's size test (see the end). Commits 156 to 158 are nits from the reviews. The changes were prepared as five PRs. This description keeps them apart as five parts, and each part numbers its own changes:

Part Commits Where unsafe blocks unsafe fn unsafe impl
1 1 to 37 bun_sys, the paths, the standalone graph, the crash handler and bun_core −96 −24 −22
2 38 to 72 the uWS bindings, the HTTP client, DNS and the servers −89 −19 −3
3 73 to 99 the intrusive helpers, the image codecs, the shell, the timers and the package manager −87 −49 −17
4 100 to 118 bun_jsc, the thread pools and bun_io −41 −13 0
5 119 to 150 the Web APIs, node:fs, node:quic, the resolver and the bundler −109 −25 −8
153 main deleted two functions that parts 1 and 5 had taken a block out of +2 0 0
All −420 −130 −50

They follow #47291, #47317, #47338, #47382, #47393, #47414, #47871, #47893, #47895, #47901, #47940 and #47944 and work the same way: signatures name the type and the lifetime that the value already has, hand-written pointer code becomes plain ownership and borrows that the compiler checks, and what was never needed is deleted.

Together: 420 fewer unsafe blocks, 130 fewer unsafe fns, 50 fewer unsafe impls and six unsafe traits fewer, +2965/−6806 over 265 files. No safe function became unsafe, and no wrapper type was added. Where the compiled code changes lists every place where the program does more work than before, or less.

The commits can be reviewed one at a time. The message of each says what its change rests on: the call sites and the C or C++ lines that it relies on.

Part 1: bun_sys, the paths, the standalone graph, the crash handler and bun_core (commits 1 to 37)

36 bun_core: AtomicCell<T> is an AtomicU8 and a PhantomData<T> −23 −16 −5
37 Five exported C strings are &[u8; N]; remove SyncCStr and CStrPtr 0 0 −2
  • Nothing that users can see changes. Outside src/: a comment in the uninit-assumed-init source lint named a function that change 2 deletes, the inventory of the vm-thread-door source lint loses the entry of a removed unsafe impl (change 37), and Cargo.lock loses one edge between two workspace crates (change 23).
  • AtomicCell shrinks from 24 unsafe blocks to one (changes 35 and 36). Seven of its eight users hold a pointer or a bool and use AtomicPtr or AtomicBool. What is left is an AtomicU8 with a PhantomData<T>, and the compiler proves what unsafe trait Atom asked each implementor to promise.
  • The two futex wrappers are safe fns (change 3). Each passes its own command, so every argument that the kernel reads for that command is one that the wrapper passes.
  • System calls that take only integers and references are safe fns: flock and futimens (change 5), geteuid, listen, fallocate and socketpair (7), if_indextoname (8), getauxval (17), sigemptyset and pthread_sigmask (25). Each message says what the C side reads and writes and what it does with a bad value.
  • Other imports that are safe fns or safe statics: one of the module loader (change 19), two of xxHash64 (20), two statics that global_asm! defines in the same file (21) and Bun__ttySetMode (31).
  • Parts of seven changes are compiled only for Windows, macOS or FreeBSD: 1 (the Windows width of AtomicFd), 4 (sin_len), 11 (the Windows impl), 12 (as_mut_ptr), 29 (Closer and WriteFileWindows), 35 (win_watcher.rs) and 37 (set_thread_name on macOS and FreeBSD).

Part 2: the uWS bindings, the HTTP client, DNS and the servers (commits 38 to 72)

1 uws_sys: response callbacks get *mut U and AnyResponse on every transport −10 −1 0

8 uws_sys: sni_resolve takes Option<OwnedSslCtx> −1 0 0
9 uws_sys: us_quic_stream_header returns Option<&Header> −1 0 0
10 uws_sys: route and upgrade thunks take &mut handles; thunk::handle_mut goes −1 −1 0
11 uws_sys: the UDP data callback gets &PacketBuffer −3 0 0
12 socket: the hand-written UpgradedDuplex__* and WindowsNamedPipe__* shims take a reference −6 0 0
13 http_jsc: Bun__Fetch{Redirect,RequestMode,CacheMode}__toJS are safe fn −3 0 0
14 http: take_protos, take_server_name and get_tls_hostname use SSLConfig's own helpers −3 0 0
15 http: preconnect takes the href it has to free as a Vec<u8> −3 −1 0
16 http: us_socket_session_sink is a safe fn, on_new_session borrows the sink once −2 0 0
17 http: ProxyTunnel keeps what changes in cells and is reached through &ProxyTunnel −6 0 0
18 dns: the four *Request::init return the promise with the request −6 0 0
19 ipc: SendQueue::run_deferred takes the ref of its task as a RefPtr<SendQueue> −3 −2 0
20 jsc: the stop_active_handles_for_vm_teardown hook takes &mut VirtualMachine −1 −2 0

32 sema: the mi_process_info stand-in has the signature of its import −1 −1 0
33 sourcemap: release_value calls Arc::decrement_strong_count itself −1 −1 0
34 js_printer: print_commonjs_export_identifier keeps the key as a plain &[u8] 0 0 0
35 uws_sys: BodyReaderMixin owns its handler −11 −9 0
  • Nothing that users can see changes, and no file under test/ changes.
  • One C++ function changes (change 35): uws_res_clear_handlers_of returns false on a closed socket, where it does nothing, and true otherwise.
  • The dev server's request-body reader owns its handler (change 35). read_body was a safe function that took a raw pointer, and each handler freed itself through unsafe fns. The reader holds the handler, no code of the handler runs while uWS can reach the allocation, and on_body(&mut self, ..) has nothing to promise.
  • Four changes end an aliasing or contract bug that had no visible effect.
    • Change 1: for the idle-timeout warning, the HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 thunks made a &mut to a static AtomicBool.
    • Change 8: sni_resolve was a safe function that freed whatever SSL_CTX pointer it was given.
    • Change 17: raw_as_mut, a safe function, made a &mut ProxyTunnel of any pointer, and was also used under callbacks that run while the tunnel's wrapper field is borrowed.
    • Change 35: if uWS ended a body while it closed the socket, the request could be freed and then used by the abort handler. That needs a CONNECT request, and both routes are POST.
  • Functions that C or C++ calls have typed parameters: the twelve response callbacks (change 1), the four us_ssl_wrapper_* exports (2), the route and upgrade thunks (10), the UDP data callback (11), six shims for a TLS socket over a duplex or a named pipe (12), the teardown hook (20) and the out-parameter of Bun__addrinfo_get (21). Each message names the call sites and what they pass.
  • Imports that are safe fns: us_fault_hit (change 7), us_quic_stream_header, which returns Option<&Header> (9), three toJS functions of fetch's enums (13) and us_socket_session_sink (16).
  • The proxy tunnel keeps what changes in cells (change 17) and is reached through &ProxyTunnel. on_writable and receive, which need a reference count of their own for the length of the call, take a RefPtr by value.
  • Parts of two changes are compiled only for Windows or macOS: 12 (the three named-pipe shims) and 18 (the libuv and dns_sd callers of GetAddrInfoRequest::init).

Part 3: the intrusive helpers, the image codecs, the shell, the timers and the package manager (commits 73 to 99)

Two types are new, both in change 4: TjInstance, an opaque handle made with opaque_ffi! like the other handles, and SetParam, an enum in place of five constants.

# Change Blocks unsafe fn unsafe impl
1 bun_core: intrusive_field! checks the type of the field it names −1 0 −1
2 threading: UnboundedQueue finds the link through IntrusiveField<Link<T>> −18 −23 −15
3 ptr: WeakPtr<T> finds its count through IntrusiveField<WeakPtrData> −3 −4 0
4 image: jpeg::Handle holds the TurboJPEG instance as &'static mut TjInstance −9 0 0
5 image: the drop guards own the libwebp demuxer and mux as &mut −3 0 0
6 uws_sys: on_websocket_upgrade takes res: &mut NewAppResponse<SSL> −3 0 0
7 shell: PipeReaderState::Done and BufferedIoState::Closed carry no buffer −3 −1 0
8 shell: PipeReader::process is a Cell −2 0 0
9 timer: TimerHeap::peek_next and find_max_next lend the deadline, not a pointer to the timer −7 0 0
10 bake: BakeProdLoad takes &PerThread, BakeRenderRoutesForProdStatic returns &mut JSPromise −2 0 0
11 bake: on_file_update borrows the acquired event once −3 0 0
12 subprocess: take_pending_start_writer returns the claimed ref as a RefPtr −1 0 0
13 timer: the two empty uv close callbacks are safe fns 0 −2 0
14 install: split manager.lockfile off with &raw mut *manager.lockfile −5 0 0
15 install: NetworkTask::write_init takes the HiveSlot claim −3 −1 0
16 install: PackageInstaller reaches the progress bar through manager −2 0 0
17 install: the isolated install borrows manager.progress where it uses it −1 0 0
18 install: read_package_json_from_disk splits off only the lockfile −1 0 0
19 install: PackageManager::init reborrows the new manager once −3 0 0
20 cli: the Fuzzilli compile loop stops with std::process::abort() −1 0 0
21 cli: the upgrade test helpers keep the temp dir HANDLE in an AtomicPtr −2 0 0
22 uws_sys: the five IP address getters take &mut [u8; 16] −5 0 0
23 cares_sys: ares_set_local_ip6 and ares_get_servers_ports are safe fn −2 0 0
24 socket: Bun__WebSocket__freeSSLConfig takes the Box −1 −1 0
25 http: drop unsafe impl Send for HpackHandle 0 0 −1
26 libuv_sys: fs_t::ptr_as is a safe fn −3 −1 0
27 http: the H3 client's quic callbacks take &mut quic::Socket / &mut quic::Stream −3 −16 0
  • Nothing that users can see changes. Only Rust files under src/ change: no test and no C or C++ file.
  • One macro says where an intrusive field is (changes 1 to 3). intrusive_field! refuses at compile time a field of another type than the one it names. It replaces the 14 hand-written unsafe impl Linked of UnboundedQueue and the three impls of HasWeakPtrData.
  • The timer heap lends the deadline (change 9). Eight users dereferenced the pointer that peek or find_max gave them, only to read the deadline. peek_next and find_max_next return Option<&Timespec>, borrowed from the heap. Where the heap is reached through a reference or a lock guard, as in six of the eight, the compiler refuses a read of it after insert, remove or delete_min, or once the guard is gone. The other two reach the heap through a raw pointer and copy the value at once. The dereference itself is in these two functions, where it was in eight places.
  • Seven changes end an aliasing or contract bug that had no visible effect.
    • Safe functions trusted an offset or a pointer: IntrusiveField::field_mut (change 1), WeakPtr::get and its Drop, through a safe trait (3), udp::Socket::bound_ip and remote_ip (22), and qsocket_arg, qstream_arg, quic_stream_mut and quic_socket_mut (27). No caller gave them a bad one.
    • Two &mut overlapped: the isolated install kept a &mut Progress over the whole pass (17).
    • The comments of Bun__WebSocket__freeSSLConfig allowed null, which Box::from_raw does not. C++ tests for null first (24).
    • Windows only: two test helpers that may run on different threads shared a RacyCell (21).
  • The shell keeps a pipe's read buffer until the PipeReader is freed (change 7). It was shrunk and moved into PipeReaderState::Done, where on_close_io or a change of state freed it. Nothing read it there: the output comes from buffered_output. on_reader_error drops the old state after it has built the new error, and on_close_io drops the slot's Rc before it stores Ignore.
  • One more difference: C is told a buffer length of 16 instead of 64 or 1,024, and only compares it with the length of the address (change 22).
  • Debug assertions. One goes, which compared the peeked timer with the popped one (change 9). One comes (18).
  • Functions that C or C++ calls have typed parameters: BakeProdLoad takes &PerThread (change 10), Bun__WebSocket__freeSSLConfig the Box (24), the eight quic callbacks of the H3 client &mut quic::Socket or &mut quic::Stream (27). 16 of the 49 unsafe fns are the fn-pointer types of these callbacks. Each message names the call sites and what they pass.
  • 15 imports are safe fns: five of TurboJPEG (change 4), three of libwebp (5), the five IP address getters (22), two of c-ares (23). Each message cites the C lines it relies on. tj3Set takes its parameter as an enum of the five that this code sets, because TJPARAM_STOPONWARNING would not be safe: with it, a header parse that follows a failed one writes past an array in libjpeg. The functions that free stay unsafe.
  • Compiled only elsewhere: changes 13, 21 and 26 for Windows, 20 for a build with Fuzzilli, and parts of 2 (fs_events.rs, macOS), 7 and 9 (Windows) and 11 (one call, not on Linux).

Part 4: bun_jsc, the thread pools and bun_io (commits 100 to 118)

One type is new: MustFinish, a zero-sized struct that holds a debug assertion and has no unsafe (change 6).

# Change Blocks unsafe fn unsafe impl
1 jsc: JsHeap::bun_vm() for bindgen bodies that want only the VM −7 0 0
2 jsc: a Worker's argv and execArgv entries are Option<&WTFStringImplStruct> −5 −2 0
3 jsc: RefString owns its bytes as a Box<[u8]> −2 −1 0
4 jsc: VirtualMachine::bun_watcher points at the Watcher −2 0 0
5 jsc: the disarm_all_timers_for_vm_teardown hook is a fn() −1 −2 0
6 jsc: the drop check of Completion is a zero-sized field −1 0 0
7 jsc: promise_ptr is an Option<&Cell<*mut JSInternalPromise>> −1 0 0
8 jsc: a Worker's VM owns its env loader −1 0 0
9 jsc: Bun__AOT__tryReservePagesForNewThread is a safe fn that takes &mut *mut c_void −1 0 0
10 jsc: RuntimeTranspilerStore::run_from_js_thread takes the &VM it needs −1 0 0
11 jsc: Bun__TestReporterAgentEnable takes &mut TestReporterHandle −1 0 0
12 jsc: the compile cache hashes with hashers::SHA256::hash −1 0 0
13 io: HeapContext::less takes &T −3 −3 0
14 threading: WorkPool::go schedules its task with schedule_new −2 −1 0
15 bun_core: errno is a Cell<c_int> lent by with_errno −2 0 0
16 threading: the IO thread pool is a OnceLock<ThreadPool> −1 0 0
17 mimalloc_sys: mi_heap_visit_blocks names what its visitor is given −1 0 0
18 io: start_with_pipe and set_pipe take the Box<uv::Pipe> they adopt −7 −3 0
19 sys: drop two Windows statics that nothing reads, and take_environ −1 −1 0
  • One read through a null pointer ends (change 2). Nothing else that users can see changes. An entry of a Worker's argv or execArgv is null if it was a Symbol whose descriptive string cannot be built. worker_option_string, a safe function, read its length all the same, for the Worker's process.argv and process.execArgv and for the positional variables of a shell script there. It returns the empty string.
  • No file under test/ and no C or C++ file changes. Outside src/: one line of docs/project/bindgen.mdx (change 1).
  • A Worker's VM owns its env loader (change 8), so the loader is freed earlier: by the last step of VirtualMachine::destroy, not by shutdown after exit_and_free has returned. A Worker that is terminated before its VM starts does not box the loader. Where init_worker fails, the loader is no longer leaked (the thread panics on that error, as before).
  • The IO thread pool is a OnceLock (change 16). Nothing ever tore it down. release(), the count and the mutex go, and so do Disk's Drop and a debug assertion against one release() too many. A bug ends with them: two threads that raced to make the pool were counted as one user, and once both had released, the next acquire() would have written a new pool over the one whose threads were still running.
  • Three more changes end an aliasing or contract bug that had no visible effect.
    • Change 10: run_from_js_thread made a &VirtualMachine while &mut self, a field of that VM, was live. Two other overlaps stay, and the message names them.
    • Change 11: test_reporter_agent_enable, a safe function, made a &mut from any pointer.
    • Change 18 (Windows): FileSink::create_with_pipe, a safe function, dereferenced a raw pointer.
  • One contract is rewritten. All::disarm_all_for_vm_teardown loses "never on a VM that keeps running" from # Safety, which is about behaviour, not memory, and its hook is a safe fn() (change 5).
  • Functions that C or C++ calls have typed parameters: Bun__TestReporterAgentEnable takes &mut TestReporterHandle (change 11), and the visitor of mi_heap_visit_blocks takes &mi_heap_area_t and &mut usize (17). Each message names the call sites and what they pass.
  • Imports: Bun__AOT__tryReservePagesForNewThread is a safe fn (change 9). libc's accessor of errno is declared to return &'static Cell<c_int>, which with_errno lends to a closure and never returns (15).
  • Compiled only elsewhere: changes 18 and 19 for Windows, and one arm of a test hook in change 1.

Part 5: the Web APIs, node:fs, node:quic, the resolver and the bundler (commits 119 to 150)

One type is new: StreamingCompiler, an opaque handle made with opaque_ffi! like the other handles (change 5). intrusive_field! writes an unsafe impl for each of the three zlib streams, in place of an unsafe fn (17).

# Change Blocks unsafe fn unsafe impl
1 jsc: a new FetchHeaders comes back from C++ as the HeadersRef that owns it −10 −1 0
2 webcore: delete the unused export BlobArrayBuffer_deallocator −1 0 0
3 jsc: jsc_host_abi! takes a plain fn 0 −6 0

12 node: whoever holds a ref on a StatWatcher holds a RefPtr −7 −2 0
13 node: StatWatcherScheduler's pool pass and shutdown read through the RefPtr they adopt 0 0 0
14 runtime, jsc: ten timer owners drop their unused from_timer_ptr 0 0 0
15 node: FSWatchTaskPosix batches Events without a needs_free flag −1 0 0
16 node: NewAsyncCpTask::run_from_js_thread takes the dispatcher's global (reverted by commit 152) 0 0 0
17 node: CompressionStreamImpl finds its task through IntrusiveField<JsCell<WorkPoolTask>> −1 −2 0
18 node: Bun__mkdirp makes its own NodeFS −1 0 0
19 node:quic: the lsquic vtable names its context types −6 −2 0
20 node:quic: the connection and stream callbacks take &QuicSession / &QuicStream, not an Option −1 0 0
21 node: the FSEvents callbacks take &FSEventsLoop −2 0 0
22 node: the FSEvents thread handle lives in the mutex that guards it −2 0 0
23 node: UVFSRequest::run_from_js_thread takes self: Box<Self>, and destroy becomes Drop −3 −2 0
24 node: the Windows PathWatcher::emit takes &self −1 0 0

26 bundler: Worker::get takes the ThreadPool −9 −1 0
27 bundler: get_ast takes &BundleOptions, get_empty_ast and get_empty_css_ast take &Define −4 0 0
28 ast: Symbol.import_item_status is a Cell −3 0 0
29 js_parser: ScopeOrder and Part.scopes hold the StoreRef<Scope> they are made from −1 0 0
30 bundler: relative_paths_list_ptr is declared with bss_string_list! 0 0 −2
31 ast: ImportRecord is Clone, and the CSS import order clones its list of records −2 0 0
32 bundler, resolver: delete six Send/Sync impls that nothing asks for or leans on 0 0 −6
  • Nothing that users can see changes, and no file under test/ changes.
  • One C++ header changes (change 18): Bun__mkdirp loses its JSGlobalObject* parameter in BunJSCModule.h, in the declaration and the call.
  • Two leaks end. Every VM that called startSamplingProfiler(dir) kept a boxed NodeFS and a path buffer that nothing freed (change 18). A new FetchHeaders was forgotten if the exception check after the C++ call threw, as it does for a pending worker.terminate(), or if clone_this was called with an exception pending (1).
  • Aliasing and contract bugs that had no visible effect end.
    • Safe functions released a ref (FetchHeaders::deref, change 1) or dereferenced or freed a raw pointer: CompressionStreamCoder__destroy (4), the wasm streaming path (5), ReadFileToJs::call (10), ref_ and deref of StatWatcher and its scheduler (12, 13), get_ast and the two get_empty_* (27).
    • S3BlobStatTask::start lent s3::stat parts of a task that s3::stat can free before it returns (7). A hop could free a StatWatcher through a pointer made from &self (12).
    • clone_into overwrote a Request without dropping it (9). The CSS import order made a second Vec header over one buffer, which is always empty (31).
  • What is released earlier or later. The 27 early returns of new Request(..) release the body slot, compute the value to return (six throw there), then release URL, headers and signal. It was headers, URL, signal, body slot, value (change 9). A file read frees its buffer after the throw or after js_empty_string, not before, on three paths (10, 11). A failed S3 download frees its error body earlier (8). An initial stat hop hands its ref to the queue: one atomic increment and decrement fewer (12). S3BlobStatTask::start takes its ref later and StatWatcher::init earlier (7, 12).
  • One change needs the location-sensitive borrow checker (change 25), which is the default of the pinned nightly. With -Zpolonius=off, two of its three functions are rejected (E0505, E0499).
  • One singleton can be made twice (change 30): threads that race on the first dupe each make the list of relative paths, and a loser's list is never freed, as for every other bss_*! singleton.
  • Functions that C or C++ calls have typed parameters: CompressionStreamCoder__destroy (change 4), the wasm streaming export (5), the 24 slots of the lsquic vtable (19, 20), the two FSEvents callbacks (21). The six imports that make a FetchHeaders return a HeadersRef (1), the 13 exports of jsc_host_abi! are plain fns (3), and splice is a safe fn (6).
  • Two known problems stay: on Windows, on a loop that is already closed for tasks, a UVFSRequest is freed inside the uv callback, before uv_fs_req_cleanup (change 23 leaves that as it is), and two CSS chunk tasks can add to the bundle's Log at once (32, a FIXME).
  • Compiled only elsewhere: changes 21 and 22 for macOS, 23 and 24 for Windows, and parts of 3 (the sysv64 arm) and 14 (WindowsNamedPipe).

Where the compiled code changes

I compared the release assembly (x86-64 Linux, --emit=asm) of all 135 crates of the workspace, main against the final commit. For 36 of them the files are the same byte for byte. The other 99 I compared function by function, with names demangled and labels normalised. In 54 of the 99 (11,400 functions) no function differs: what differs is debug information and the hashes in symbol names. 45 crates differ:

Three quarters of the functions that differ (1,852 of 2,458) differ only in a constant or a name. Most hold an offset into a type that lost a field, changed size or has its fields in another order: VirtualMachine, RuntimeHooks, Symbol, LinkerContext, semver's Group, WebWorker, FSWatcher, PackageInstaller, the shell's PipeReader and the dyn Host vtable of the React Compiler. The others call a function under another name, or hold the message of AnyResponse's null panic (128). In C++, uws_res_clear_handlers_of sets a return value (part 2, change 35), and one call of Bun__mkdirp passes one argument fewer (part 5, change 18).

The table is for the whole PR. The notes below were written part by part, each from a comparison of that part's first and last commit, and "change 7" in them is row 7 of that part's table. Commit 155 came after them: 43 functions of bun_uws_sys and 87 of bun_runtime have one panic site more than the notes say (3 or 4 instructions, 10 in on_defer). What Linux does not compile is not in this assembly. Each part lists it above.

Where the program does more than before

Part 1:

  • The first use of a path scratch buffer on a thread (change 14). The three slots are OnceCells. The path that finds a slot filled is the same instructions. On a thread's first use of a slot, the allocation sits in the cold OnceCell::try_init (24 to 36 instructions, one copy in each of 7 crates), which is a call, and which tests after the allocation that the slot is still empty. That is three calls and three tests per thread. relative_platform, relative_buf_z, relative_normalized and the functions they are inlined into have 2 to 7 call sites and at least one panic site fewer each, because the allocation moved out of them.
  • The rlimits in the crash handler (change 24). suppress_core_dumps_if_necessary goes from 16 to 32 instructions, with 3 more branches and 2 more calls: it calls bun_sys::posix::getrlimit and setrlimit, which copy the two limits into Rlimit and, on failure, read errno and build an error that is dropped. It runs once, when a crash is being reported or core dumps are turned off. suppress_reporting and unsupported_uv_function are 12 shorter because it is no longer inlined into them. getrlimit_nofile (20) is nofile_limit (25), and the two copies of handle_root_error that call it are 10 shorter.
  • The interface name of a UDP sender (change 8). on_data finds the end of the name with slice_to_nul, which searches the 17 bytes of the buffer and checks the index it found against the length. strlen searched without a bound. That is 11 more instructions, with one more branch and one more panic site. Only a packet whose sender has an IPv6 scope id gets there, right after if_indextoname, which makes three system calls.
  • fstat and isatty on a UDP socket's fd (change 6) go through bun_sys. fstat retries on EINTR, and dgramGuessHandleType drops the error that it can return, which is two more tests.
  • File and HashedString are larger. File of the standalone graph grows from 192 to 200 bytes (change 16), one per embedded file. HashedString grows from 16 to 24 bytes and Pattern from 32 to 40 (change 30), on the stack only: Pattern::init is 14 instructions longer and match_page_with_allocator 4, all moves.

Part 2:

  • Three tests in the body reader (change 35): the bool that clear_handlers_of returns and a second is_empty, once per request body, and a second test of last per chunk. Only the dev server's /_bun/report_error and /_bun/unref get there.
  • One more argument (change 29). maybe_compile_pending and maybe_compile_node get the arena as an argument on every call, also on calls that return before they compile anything. No function is longer for it: the two visit_stmts are 1 instruction shorter, and compile_pending is 5 shorter, with one virtual call fewer.

Part 3:

  • One call for each network task (change 15). get_network_task (35 to 66) holds the claim of the slot and the stores of write_init. Its three callers had both inline and now call it, with the task id as a second argument: enqueue_manifest_download −52, start_manifest_task −51, generate_network_task_for_tarball −33. Claim and stores are the same. The call is new, once for each manifest or tarball that is requested. Together: 1,892 to 1,787.
  • The release of a StaticPipeWriter is a call (change 12). The decrement, the test and the free at zero were inline in three places. They are one function of 44 instructions, the drop glue of RefPtr<StaticPipeWriter<Subprocess>> (only after), reached twice from close_io and once from on_process_exit (534 to 507). A decrement that does not reach zero costs a call or jump, three pushes and three pops more, when a Bun.spawn child whose stdin is a buffer exits or has its streams closed.
  • Larger stack frames (changes 7 and 12). The functions that are inlined (see the comment linked below) bring their temporaries: Yield::run reserves 952 bytes instead of 680, finish_after_state_set 520 instead of 352, Subprocess::close_io 88 where it reserved none.
  • Six instructions of code, no work (change 24). sql_hooks::ssl_config_free (only after) has the same body as Bun__WebSocket__freeSSLConfig and was a second name of it. Now that one takes a Box, the compiler does not merge them.
  • Other builds (from the source, not from this assembly). With debug assertions, byte_add checks its precondition on each access to a queue link (change 2) or a weak count (3), a compare and a branch where the build is optimised and calls in a debug build, and RefPtr::from_raw checks the refcount's canary (12). A debug build also tests a bool in a new debug_assert! (18), runs the null test of opaque_mut in three places (27) and calls WebPData::new (5). A Fuzzilli build reaches libc::abort() through std::process::abort(): at least one call more, once (20). On Windows, close_temp_dir_handle uses an atomic exchange instead of a load and a store (21).

Part 4:

  • A null test per entry of a Worker's argv and execArgv (change 2): one test and one branch in Bun__Process__createArgv (293 to 295), Bun__Process__createExecArgv (988 to 990) and the shell's Interpreter::next_node (2 of its 13). They run in a Worker only, when process.argv or process.execArgv is made and once per shell interpreter that expands a positional variable.
  • The collect in parse_worker_exec_argv_flags (change 2) is 107 instructions with filter_map and was 83 with filter and map. It has one more branch per entry: the copy is tested as the closure's Option and as the iterator's. Its caller is 10 shorter (145 to 135). It runs when a Worker is created with its own execArgv, if may_refuse_options().
  • Starting a Worker's VM (change 8). The thread's entry function, which inlines start_vm, goes from 945 to 961 with 2 more branches and 5 more call sites. Per Worker it loads and tests the owned_env_loader of the ..Default::default() temporary, which is None: one load, one test, one branch. That test and the drop of a Some are there twice (9 instructions each), and the drop, with 2 calls, never runs. A Worker that is already terminated drops the loader here, not in shutdown (74 to 63). The six copies that the function makes are the same.
  • One more jump per SHA-256 in the compile cache (change 12). hashers::SHA256::hash is not inlined. It is one jump to SHA256. fetch (481), persist_pass (3,085) and read_cache_file (800) keep their length. Each hashes a whole module's source or bytecode.
  • The first use of the IO thread pool (change 16), once per process (on Linux only under a testing flag), builds the pool in a closure that Once::call calls through a pointer. acquire (80) is replaced by get (10), OnceLock::initialize (20) and that closure twice (55 each with an unwrap_failed, one is the FnOnce shim): the +60 and the 2 panic sites of bun_threading.
  • A string too long for create_external (change 3): ref_counted_string (244 to 235) calls free_ref_string where it freed inline, one call and two tests more.
  • Without optimisation (from the source, not this assembly): one more call for heap.bun_vm() (change 1), three more and a second store of the callback in WorkPool::go (14), calls of the closure, Cell::get and Cell::set in with_errno (15).

Part 5:

  • Bun__mkdirp (change 18; 89 to 60 instructions) pops a path buffer from the thread's pool and pushes it back, two calls, where after a VM's first call it made a thread-local lookup, a compare and a load. Only startSamplingProfiler(dir) of bun:jsc calls it.
  • Request (change 9). clone copies the 104-byte struct that clone_with_url returns to a temporary and then into the box: 36 moves for each request.clone(), where it stored a dummy (14 instructions) and clone_into wrote in place. construct_into returns its Request by value in the same way. new Request(request) drops the request under construction: four tests on empty fields.
  • FetchHeaders (change 1). With an exception pending after the C++ call, clone_this (26 to 28) releases the clone, and create_from_js (26 to 29) tests for null and releases. The Ok paths are the same.
  • The text of a file read (change 11). Where JSC adopts the buffer, owned hands owned_latin1_into_js three words, not two, and that tests the length for zero, which cannot hold: 8 more instructions, one a branch, for each such file.text(). No call is added: to_external_value is inlined into it.
  • blob.json() in memory (change 10) calls Blob::shared_view in bun_jsc. That work was inline in Blob::to_json (152 to 109).
  • An S3 download (change 8). on_response (217 to 205) compares the buffer's length on every call, loads request_error for every report, and moves the error body out on a failure (six words written).
  • Each bundle (change 26): BundleV2 takes 2,216 bytes, not 2,208, and init_without_starting_threads (+2) stores a placeholder and the pool.
  • Scope entries of 12 bytes (change 29). An index times 12 is a lea and a shift, not one shift: both visit_stmts and _parse::<false>, +1. The loop of prepare_for_visit_pass (+6; _parse::<true>, which inlines it, +18) moves each entry through the stack: 5 more instructions for each scope, no branch. Both parse_typescript_enum_stmt (+2; +3 in parse_stmts_up_to of bun_runtime, which inlines it) count entries with a compare and an sbb, not an add of the tag.
  • External @imports (change 31). Without conditions, Vec::clone loads the length, finds zero and builds an empty header, where three words were copied. Visitor::visit (816 to 885; 5 branches, 2 calls, a panic site) holds clone's allocation and copy loop twice, with conditions in place of with_capacity and a loop of push. Neither is entered: the list is always empty.
  • The first dupe (change 30). Threads that race there each make a list of 181,320 bytes, and a loser's is never freed. LazyLock made one.
  • Other builds (from the source). A debug build asserts in RefPtr::new that the count is 1 and checks its canary in from_raw and clone (changes 12, 13). On macOS init also returns the thread handle, and shutdown takes it (22).

Where it does less

Part 1:

  • QuietWriter is an fd (change 1): an fd is copied instead of 32 bytes, Source::init is 12 instructions shorter, and one function of the output sink is gone.
  • Semver (change 27): List is 8 bytes smaller and Group 16. Clone no longer walks each chain a second time. bun_semver is 83 instructions, 8 branches and 12 compares shorter. Most of the 337 functions of bun_install that differ only in a constant hold a Group.
  • Joining paths (change 2): join_string_buf_t::<u8, _> (521 to 531 instructions, 8 copies) is replaced by join_string_buf_t_same::<u8, _>, which is 11 to 22 shorter.
  • Glob errors (change 26): handle_sys_err_with_path (56 to 58 instructions, 5 copies) is gone, and the functions that held its call sites are 7 to 50 shorter.
  • The page size (change 6) is read from the OnceLock of bun_alloc::page_size instead of by a call to sysconf. Ten functions of bun_exe_format have one to three tests of the OnceLock each, 15 in all, each in place of a libc call. map_zero_pages (72) is a function of its own, where it was inlined into move_down and grow, which are 65 and 37 shorter.
  • The standalone graph (change 16): the body of LazySourceMap::load (219 to 34) moved into the closure that OnceLock runs once (221). drop_glue::<File> tests the OnceLock (7 more instructions). set (56 to 35) is one get_or_init, and the three OnceLock helpers behind it are 83 instructions longer together; it runs once. More than a dozen functions that index the files are 1 or 2 instructions shorter, because a stride of 200 bytes is one imul where 192 was a lea and a shift.
  • hostent_with_ttls_to_js_response (change 4) is 20 shorter: one zeroed sockaddr fewer.
  • Watcher (change 35): three 8-byte cells became three bytes.
  • DEFAULT_LOG_LEVEL (change 36) is one byte instead of eight. Log::init loads it with the same instruction.

Part 2:

  • Response callbacks (change 1). The adapter functions that any_response_register_cb! stamped for each handler and transport are gone. Fifteen thunks of bun_runtime, 433 instructions, have no successor.
  • The dev server's body reader (change 35): the functions of the reader and its two handlers that exist on one side only add up to 724 instructions before and 470 after, and the two on_body are 4 shorter. After a failure the reader makes four calls into C++ instead of five or six. On success it makes one, as before.
  • preconnect (change 15): bun_http::preconnect goes from 265 to 150 instructions, Preconnect::on_result from 47 to 28 and Bun.fetch.preconnect from 232 to 223. The URL is not cloned, and the buffer is not shrunk into a boxed slice.
  • The proxy tunnel (change 17): twelve functions of bun_http are 1 to 6 instructions shorter, among them receive (30 to 24) and on_writable (91 to 85). on_close and the four copies of HTTPClient::on_writable have one branch fewer. 23 more have the same length with other registers or offsets.
  • The task of the IPC queue (change 19): the decrement and the test for zero sit in drop_glue::<RefPtr<SendQueue>> (74), which takes the place of drop_glue::<Box<SendQueue>> (66). Its callers run_task::handle and spawn_maybe_sync are 6 and 4 shorter, with 3 and 2 branches fewer.
  • The lexer (change 30): Lexer::next is 21 instructions shorter (3,736 to 3,715), with the same number of branches and compares.
  • The AST stores (change 28): ASTMemoryAllocator::pop is 8 shorter, Scope::drop 4, with one branch fewer.
  • The UDP callback of node:quic (change 11) has two branches fewer. It is 2 instructions longer (950 to 952).

Part 3:

  • The shell's pipes (change 7). The shell code is 230 instructions shorter in all. on_reader_done (91 to 47) does not move the read buffer or shrink it with into_boxed_slice. on_close_io, inlined into finish_after_state_set, decrements the Rc and stores Ignore without looking into the reader. A SubprocExec is 24 bytes instead of 80 and owns no vectors: Cmd::transition_to_exec is 105 shorter, with 7 calls to mi_free and 18 branches fewer, Cmd::deinit and the drop glue of Node 31 each. on_reader_error (89 to 64) has no Done payload to free. An Rc<PipeReader> takes 432 bytes instead of 440.
  • IP addresses (change 22): 20 functions, 97 instructions. In bun_uws_sys, us_socket_t::local_address and remote_address (58 to 52) do not clamp a slice's length to i32::MAX, and h3::ListenSocket::get_local_address (37 to 22) does not convert it to c_int, which could panic. Their callers clear 16 bytes with one store instead of 64 with four, and all but the UDP getters pass no length: 13 functions of bun_runtime (−3 to −8) and, in bun_http_jsc, WebSocketProxyTunnel::remote_address (−8) and bun__websocketclient__remote_address (−4). The server's hostname getter does not memset 1,024 bytes (−3).
  • WebSocket upgrades (change 6). The four on_upgrade thunks of Bun.serve lose the null test of res (−2). The two of the dev server lose two, on the paths that answer 403, and the call of null_handle, which panics (−5).
  • The package manager. install_hoisted_packages (−4) does not store the address of progress (changes 14 and 16). get_or_put, which inlines read_package_json_from_disk, loads the lockfile pointer in one place for both parse calls and repeats one clean-up block less (−17; change 18). install_isolated_packages (−1) does not keep the address of progress over the pass (17).

Part 4:

  • The import watcher (change 4). install_bun_watcher (33, with a 16-byte allocation) is three stores in enable_hot_module_reloading. teardown (508 to 502) has one free fewer (and one argument, change 5), each use one load fewer. The +42 of bun_watcher is Watcher::snapshot_package_json: the 33 instructions of ImportWatcher::snapshot_package_json in bun_jsc, with index_of inlined. TranspilerJob::run (3,321 to 3,261) had the old one inlined and calls the new one: one call for three.
  • The IO thread pool, once it exists (change 16). get() runs 5 instructions with one load, acquire() ran 16 with a lock cmpxchg. The lock dec of release() is gone from BundleV2::deinit_without_freeing_arena (262 to 257) and from drop_glue::<Disk> (4 shorter, one branch fewer) in bun_runtime, bun_sema_driver, bun_aot, bun_lint_driver, bun_lint_graph and bun_sema_baselines.
  • promise_ptr (change 7). async_module::Queue::enqueue (210 to 204) loses a tag test and its unwrap_failed.
  • A Worker without the field (change 8). WebWorker__create (2,175 to 2,172) does not store it, and shutdown (74 to 63) does not swap, test and free it.

Part 5:

  • File reads and Blob (changes 10, 11): 510 instructions fewer in 40 functions. The six ReadFileToJs::call (521), four of which picked an instantiation at run time, are six owned and six stored (386).
  • new Request(..) (change 9): Bun__Bindgen__RequestClass__construct goes from 1,389 to 1,158, 48 branches and 26 calls fewer. cleanup (44) is gone, and no return tests success or compares the two slots.
  • node:quic (change 20): 19 callbacks do not test their first argument (−72 in all), and on_stream_read (265 to 253) has no drain loop.
  • fs.watch (change 15): a task takes 432 bytes, not 496, and enqueue copies 384, not 448, for each batch.
  • Headers (change 1): create_empty, create_from_uws and create_from_h3 (10 to 1) are a jump: no null test. FetchTasklet::on_resolve (−5) and proxy_connect_error (−4) lose an expect.
  • The parser (changes 28, 29): push_scope_for_visit_pass (148 to 140) loses one null test for each scope, discard_scopes_up_to (90 to 84) one test of two, parse_class (610 to 600) an expect. push_scope_for_parse_pass and P::init store no tag. 21 functions that make a Symbol, three in bun_lint_react_compiler, clear two adjacent bytes with one store.
  • The bundler: worker_pool() is one load less (change 26). get_ast (4,044 to 4,035) has one branch fewer (27). dupe and its copies in Linker::link and AsyncModule::on_done (−5 each) make one Acquire load and a null test, not a load and test of the Once and a load of the pointer (30).
  • The resolver (change 25): read_directory (487 to 473) builds and drops no empty DirEntry, and neither does its copy in the test scanner's read_dir_with_name (−4). The one call more is a repeated BSSStringList::append.
  • fs.watchFile (change 12): InitialStatTask::run_owned (100 to 94) and the watchFile binding (714 to 708) lose a null test or an expect each.

Same work in another place or order, and differences that are the compiler's choice: those 43 notes are in a comment below, because this description is at the size limit.

The comparison covers x86-64 Linux only, one crate at a time. The build that ships also inlines across crates when it links, on most targets also across Rust and C++ (see the end).

How did you verify your code works?

  • Static checks on the final commit: cargo fmt --check, cargo clippy --workspace (0 warnings), the source lints, and cargo check --workspace --release for Linux, Windows, macOS and FreeBSD.
  • Each part was tested when it was finished, on a build that also held the parts before it. Its 30 test files ran on a debug build with ASAN, all started at once and each stopped after 50 seconds. What came after that:
    • Two changes of part 1 were dropped, which had marked epoll_ctl and mi_stats_print_out safe fn.
    • Four changes were narrowed. sigaddset stays an unsafe import (part 1, change 25). tj3Set takes a SetParam, and WebPDemuxReleaseChunkIterator stays an unsafe import (part 3, changes 4 and 5). on_close_detached stays an unsafe fn (part 5, change 19, and change 20 follows it). The other 145 patches stayed as they were.
    • I compared the release assembly of all crates before and after these together, and no function differs.
    • Last, 33 comments wider than 100 columns were re-wrapped.
  • The release link failed in CI on commit 151, on seven platforms: too little could be removed with the --trim feature Shell. Change 16 of part 5 had given the ShellAsyncCpTask arm of run_task, an entry point of Shell, the same body as a closure in on_subtask_done. The linker folded the two, and the link keeps a folded entry point and all that it reaches. Commit 152 reverts the change. The same link on Linux x64 (--trimmable=true) fails in the same way on commit 151, and no feature fails it on commits 152 to 155, 157 and 158.
  • Commits 153 and 154 merge main, at 2596ac5 and 89452d2: AOT: front end, test runs and tests for the rewritten compiler #47942 conflicted in four files, AOT: bun compile, build output, module mocks, fixes and new names #48436 in one of them again. Their messages say how. For some names that are not normalized, find now finds a file where main's finds none (154's message). Outside those five files the lines that this PR adds and removes are the same as before.
    • A debug build of each merge and one of its main print the same for: json() and the other readers of 28 blobs, files, requests and responses; an executable with an asset, a Worker and a source map; --compile --aot, also started with --aot-program-file; bun test with --parallel, --bail, --aot and --coverage. For 154 also: files above the root of a compiled program, and names that are not normalized.
    • Of 30 and 20 test files for those areas 33 pass and 14 were cut off after 50 seconds. No failure is a merge's: each fails on main's build too, passes alone, or asks for something that the machine lacks.
  • compile-aot-size.test.ts failed in CI on commit 154: an --aot hello world mapped 12,144 bytes more than on main, 2,296 over its bound. CI links Linux x64 with LTO across Rust and C++, as no check above does. With change 4 of part 2 that LTO inlined 14 AnyResponse methods at 283 more call sites. Commit 155 undoes that: linked the same way, the hello world maps 4,040 bytes fewer than on main. Debug builds of 157 and of main answer 72 requests and 3 WebSocket sessions alike, and 14 of 16 server test files pass (2 were cut off). CI passed on 158 (build 139831), as on 153 (138414): all 188 jobs, with no failing file.

Part 1:

  • Miri with Tree Borrows on eight of the crates these commits touch, all of their tests: bun_paths (35), bun_threading (7), bun_semver (6), bun_base64 (3), bun_ptr (21), bun_pod (12), bun_ast (22, one of them new) and bun_hash (10). All pass.
  • 30 test files:
    • 23 files pass completely, 1,869 tests: relative, join and resolve of node:path, os.test.js, udp_socket, dgram, glob/match, semver, hash, filesystem_router, bun-file-read, bun-write, atob, fs.watch, watch, terminal, cp, dir, transpiler-cache, test-test, framework-router, run-crash-handler and bun-build-compile-sourcemap.
    • resolve.test.ts passes 111 tests and fails 1, the same one as on a debug build without these commits. It needs a package that I did not have.
    • 6 files were stopped at 50 seconds: bundler_compile, bun-build-compile, glob/scan, spawn, worker_threads and process.
      • In process.test.js three tests had failed by then, the same three as without these commits (the ICU version, the host's Node version, getgroups).
      • In glob/scan.test.ts one had. It scans all of test/ while the other 29 files create and delete files there. Alone it passes, with and without these commits.
      • No test had failed in the other four.

Part 2:

  • The body reader (change 35), driven by hand on a debug build with ASAN, against a dev server: 15 requests over raw TCP to /_bun/unref and /_bun/report_error, seven runs. They send valid, malformed, chunked and oversized bodies, and they close the connection before the body and in the middle of it. The statuses and body lengths are the same as in five runs on a build without these commits, the server still answers afterwards and stops cleanly, and ASAN reports nothing.
  • 30 test files:
    • 22 files of Bun's own tests pass completely, 3,711 tests: bun-server, serve-listen, bun-serve-routes, serve-http2, bun-serve-ssl, serve-response-gc-backpressure-abort, serve-async-stream-client-abort, websocket-server, tcp-server, node-tls-server, node-tls-upgrade, fetch-preconnect, fetch.tls, proxy-stress-errors, proxy-stress-lifecycle, spawn.ipc, css.test.ts, xml, jsonc, coverage, transpiler.test.js and udp_socket.
    • Node's test-quic-alpn passes.
    • resolve-dns passes 63 tests and fails 30, and socket.test.ts passes 195 and fails 1: the same 31 as on a build without these commits. They need a DNS server, which I did not have.
    • proxy.test.ts did not load, because it imports a package that I did not have.
    • 4 files were stopped at 50 seconds: serve-http2-lifecycle, serve-http3, hot and node-tls-connect. In node-tls-connect two tests had failed by then, the same two as without these commits. No test had failed in the other three.

Part 3:

  • The check in intrusive_field! (change 1), tried on 42 small programs against the real bun_core. 28 wrong uses are rejected: a wrong field or type, a wrapper around the right type, a changed or left-out lifetime, a union, a packed struct, a private field behind Deref, an unsizing coercion. 14 right uses are accepted with the workspace's lints denied.
  • Miri with tree borrows: the tests of bun_ptr (21) and bun_threading (7) pass with changes 1 to 3.
  • The lifetimes of the WebP demuxer (change 5), tried in decode: dropping the bytes under the guard, writing to them, moving the demuxer out of the block, and dropping the demuxer while the chunk iterator lives all compiled before and are errors now.
  • 30 test files:
    • 18 files pass completely, 1,067 tests: image, image-adversarial, websocket-server, websocket-client, udp_socket, fetch-http3-client, bun-link, test-timers, timer-heap-race, fs.watchFile, node/fs/cp, spawn-pipe-start-error, spawn-stdin-pipe-fd-leak, and the shell's file-io, epipe, shelloutput, shell-cmdsub-crash and shell-pipe-read-fault.
    • 3 files fail exactly the tests that they fail on a build without these commits: node-dns (144 pass, 28 fail: they need a DNS server, which I did not have), bake/dev/hot (all 12: they import a package that I did not have) and setInterval (7 pass, and the leak test runs into its 30 seconds).
    • 9 files were stopped at 50 seconds: bunshell, spawn, setTimeout, node-http2, bake/dev/production, bun-add, bun-workspaces, hoist and isolated-install. No test had failed by then.

Part 4:

  • Miri with tree borrows: the 7 tests of bun_threading pass with changes 14 and 16.
  • 30 test files, twice:
    • 21 files pass completely, 642 tests: worker-late-completion, worker_destruction, cli/hot/watch, cli/watch/watch, test-changed, test-reporter, transpiler-cache, cli/run/env, bun-jsc, heapStats-mimalloc, process-memory-pressure, import-meta, node-module-module, no-addons, path/join, path/resolve, web-crypto, crypto-random, fetch-file-upload, quic-endpoint and dns-lookup-keepalive.
    • resolve.test.ts passes 111 tests and fails 1, the same one as on a build without these commits: it imports a package that I did not have.
    • worker.test.ts passes 43 tests and fails 1 in both runs. "worker with event listeners doesn't close event loop" gives a child process one second, and with 30 files at once the child was stopped at that limit. By itself the test passes, 4 times of 4.
    • 7 files were stopped at 50 seconds: hot, bun-build-api, process, node-tls-server, worker_threads, setTimeout and worker-terminate-lifetime. By then three tests of process had failed, the same three as without these commits (the ICU version, the Node version on the host, process.getgroups). In the first run one test of setTimeout had failed: "Bun.sleep(Date) fulfills after Date" measured 41 ms where it expects 50. It did not fail in the second run, and by itself it passes, 6 times of 6. No test had failed in the other five.

Part 5:

  • 30 test files:
    • 24 files pass completely, 2,427 tests: headers, blob, response, request, wasm-streaming, streams, compression, filesink, bun-file, bun-write, s3-list-objects, s3-stream-cancel-leak, fs.watchFile, fs/cp, the shell's cp, zlib, zlib-reset-race, bun-jsc, quic-endpoint, quic-stream, quic-sni, bundler_defer, esbuild/css and transpiler.
    • resolve.test.ts passes 111 tests and fails 1, the same one as on a build without these commits: it imports a package that I did not have.
    • bundler_edgecase stops after two tests, because it imports a package that I did not have.
    • 4 files were stopped at 50 seconds: fetch, fs.watch, bundler_splitting and request-clone-leak. By then one test of request-clone-leak had failed: new Request(test #1) allows 64 MB of growth and measured 68 MB. Side by side with a build without these commits, it measured 68 MB here and 69 MB there. No test had failed in the other three.
    • In a second run fs.watch (51 tests) passes completely.

…icFd`

`QuietWriter` was a 32-byte `[*mut (); 4]` that bun_core could not look
into. bun_sys kept the fd in the first word and read and wrote it through
pointer casts (`qw_fd`, `qw_set_fd`). `Fd` is a bun_core type, so there was
nothing to erase: the struct has one public field, `fd`.
`quiet_writer_from_fd` applies the two old casts in one expression
(`fd.native() as usize as _`, the identity on POSIX), and the other arms
read `qw.fd`. The sink method `quiet_writer_fd`, `context_handle` and
`ZEROED` have no user left and are removed.

With one fd to hold, `SCOPED_FILE_WRITER` is an `AtomicFd` like
`STDOUT_STREAM` and `STDERR_STREAM`, loaded and stored with `Relaxed`, in
place of a `RacyCell` that four `unsafe` blocks read and wrote. It starts
at 0, which is what the zeroed blob decoded to.

At run time one fd is copied where 32 bytes were, `_scoped_use_ansi` reads
the fd itself instead of calling the sink for it, and the static is
accessed with relaxed atomic loads and stores.
`join_string_buf_t` was generic over the output unit but took `u8` parts,
so that a `u16` instance could transcode them. Its one caller,
`join_string_buf`, asks for `u8`. To hand its uninitialised scratch to
`PathChar::write_u8_part(&mut [T], ..)` it forged a `&mut [T]` over it with
`from_raw_parts_mut`.

For `u8` the function is `join_string_buf_t_same` line for line, except
that `_same` copies each part with `write_copy_of_slice` on the
`MaybeUninit` slice. `join_string_buf` calls that one.
`join_string_buf_t` and `write_u8_part` (two impls, no other user) are
removed.

The same bytes land at the same offsets. The scratch is sliced once as
`[written..written + part.len()]` where it was sliced as `[written..]` and
then `[..part.len()]`.
…ommand

`linux::futex_3arg` and `linux::futex_4arg` were `unsafe fn`s over raw
pointers that took the command as a `FutexOp`. Each had one caller and one
command: `wake` in threading/Futex.rs passed WAKE and a `*const AtomicU32`,
`wait` passed WAIT, a `&AtomicU32` and a local `timespec`.

The wrappers are named after their commands and pass them themselves, so every
argument the kernel reads for that command is one the wrapper passes.
`FutexOp` and `FutexCmd` have no user left and are deleted; REQUEUE,
WAIT_BITSET and WAKE_BITSET were never named outside the enum.

- `futex_wait(&AtomicU32, u32, Option<&timespec>)`: the kernel reads the word
  and the timeout, and the references say that both are live.
- `futex_wake(*const AtomicU32, u32)` keeps a raw pointer, because `wake_raw`
  may pass the address of a word that is already freed. For WAKE on a private
  futex the kernel uses the address as a key and does not access the word, so
  the worst a wrong address can cause is a spurious wake-up or none.

Neither has anything left to ask of its caller. The `libc::syscall` blocks
stay. The same values go to the same syscall.
…, `as_in6`

Five blocks cast around an API that already serves them.

`Display for Address` read `sin_addr` and `sin6_addr` through pointer casts
to byte arrays, because `bun_libuv_sys::sockaddr_in` was said to hold a
`[u8; 4]`. It re-exports the `ws2_32` structs, which have
`in_addr { s_addr: u32 }` and `in6_addr { s6_addr: [u8; 16] }` like libc.
Text that every platform compiles already reads both:
`bun_dns::address_to_string` reads `s_addr`, and
`is_all_loopback_of_one_family` in runtime/dns_jsc/dns.rs reads `s6_addr`. So
does `Display`: `s_addr.to_ne_bytes()` and `s6_addr`.

`hostent_with_ttls_to_js_response` filled a zeroed `sockaddr_in`/`in6` by
hand and copied it with `unsafe { Address::init_posix(..) }`, "because
Address only exposes init_posix". `Address::from_ip` is safe and lays out
the same family, address, port 0, flowinfo 0 and scope 0. On macOS and
FreeBSD it also sets `sin_len`/`sin6_len` to the struct size where the old
code left 0; the address only goes to `address_to_string`, which does not
read it.

`network_interfaces_posix` tested `family() == AF_INET6` and then cast
`as_sockaddr()`; `as_in6()` makes that test and returns the reference.
…e safe wrapper

Three wrappers in `posix_impl` called the `libc` crate's declarations in
`unsafe` blocks, although what they pass carries no contract.

`safe_libc` already imports `pipe(&mut [c_int; 2])`,
`getrlimit(.., &mut rlimit)` and the integer-only calls as `safe fn`s. Two join
it:

- `flock(fd, op)`: two integers. A bad fd is EBADF, an unknown op EINVAL.
- `futimens(fd, &[timespec; 2])`: libc and the kernel read two `timespec`s,
  which is what the reference points at. Every field value is accepted or
  answered with EINVAL.

`sendfile` (Linux, Android) calls `linux_syscall::sendfile`, the safe wrapper
in this crate that every other Linux call site uses. It returns -1 and sets
`errno` like libc's.

What differs: `flock` and `futimens` are the same libc symbols with the same
values. `sendfile` enters the kernel through libc's `syscall(SYS_sendfile, ..)`
instead of libc's `sendfile`, with the same four values.
…_sys` and `bun_core`

Three `unsafe` blocks called libc for something a safe function of a crate
they already depend on does.

`dgram_guess_handle_type`:
- `libc::isatty(fd) == 1` is the body of `bun_sys::isatty`.
- a zeroed `libc::stat` filled by `libc::fstat` becomes `bun_sys::fstat`.
  Its error path builds a `bun_sys::Error` with two empty boxes: it does not
  allocate or log, and the error is dropped at once. What differs: the
  `stat` is not zeroed first and comes back by value, EINTR is retried, and
  on Linux the call is bun_sys's direct syscall, which asserts `fd != -1`
  (the function has already returned for every negative fd).

`MappedFile::page_size` asked `sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE)` on every call.
`bun_core::page_size()` asks once and keeps the answer in a `OnceLock`.
…` imports

Five call sites outside bun_sys wrapped a libc call in `unsafe` although no
argument value can make the call misbehave.

New imports, one per symbol:
- `bun_sys::c::geteuid()`, beside `getuid` and `getgid`: no arguments, reads
  the process's credentials, cannot fail. Used by `extract_owner_uid`.
- `listen(fd, backlog)` in udp_socket.rs's extern block, beside `ntohs`: two
  integers. A bad fd is EBADF, one that is not a listening kind of socket
  ENOTSOCK or EOPNOTSUPP, and the kernel clamps the backlog. Used by
  `dgram_listen_fd`.

Imports that `safe_libc` already had, made `pub` and re-exported from
`bun_sys::c` like `fchmod` and `posix_fadvise`:
- `fallocate(fd, mode, off, len)` (Linux, Android): four integers; a bad fd,
  mode or range is EBADF, EOPNOTSUPP, EINVAL or EFBIG. Used by
  `fill_behind_end` and `copy_into_mapping_of_empty_file`.
- `socketpair(domain, ty, proto, &mut [c_int; 2])`: three integers the
  kernel validates, and room for the two descriptors it writes. Used by
  `create_socket_pair`, which passes the array it has instead of
  `as_mut_ptr()`.

The same libc symbols are called with the same values.
…ZE + 1]`

`on_data` has a zeroed `[u8; IF_NAMESIZE + 1]` and passed its
`as_mut_ptr()` to the `libc` crate's `if_indextoname` in an `unsafe` block.
The import is declared in the file's extern block instead, as a `safe fn`
whose second parameter is a reference to that array.

POSIX asks for a buffer of at least `IF_NAMESIZE` bytes and the function
writes no more than that, so the reference covers every write. The index is
an integer: one that names no interface returns null. The result is only
tested for null.

The next statement read the name back with `ffi::cstr` on the array's pointer,
in a second `unsafe` block. It calls `bun_core::slice_to_nul(&buffer)`, which
stops at the first NUL or at the end of the array. The last byte of the array is
never written, so the two give the same bytes.

The same libc symbol is called with the same values. The search for the NUL is
`index_of_char_usize` over 17 bytes where it was `strlen`, and `slice_to_nul`
checks the index it found against the length: `on_data` is 11 instructions
longer, with one more branch and one more panic site. Only a packet whose sender
has an IPv6 scope id gets there.
Nothing needs them. The only place that stores a `DynLib` is
`FFI::dylib: JsCell<Option<DynLib>>` in runtime/ffi/ffi_body.rs, and
`JsCell<T>` is `Send + Sync` for every `T`. Every other use in that file is
a local that stays on its thread. The workspace compiles without the two
impls on Linux, and no other target names the type anywhere else.
Nothing needs them. `Name` (POSIX) is a pointer and a length into the
iterator's buffer, valid until the next `next()`. It only appears as a field
of `IteratorResult`, which no struct stores: callers read the entry on the
thread that called `next()` and copy the name if they keep it.
`WrappedIterator` and its `State` hold no `Name`, so the types that own an
iterator keep their auto traits. The workspace compiles without the two
impls on Linux, and every place that iterates a directory is compiled there.
The impl (one for unix, one for Windows) served a single line: the
transpiler cache zeroed a `[PlatformIoVecConst; 4]` and then stored the
metadata entry, which is always present, in slot 0. The array is built from
that entry instead, `[platform_iovec_const_create(metadata_bytes); 4]`, and
the count starts at 1. The type is `Copy`, and only `vecs_buf[..vecs_i]` is
read, so the copies in the slots that stay unused are never looked at.

At run time the array starts as four copies of the first entry, where it
was 64 zero bytes followed by a store of that entry.
It was an `unsafe fn` over a pointer and a length whose one caller, the
Linux `dir_iterator::State::next`, passed `buf.as_mut_ptr()` and
`BUF_SIZE`. It takes the buffer as a slice of `MaybeUninit<u8>`: the kernel
writes at most `buf.len()` bytes into memory the borrow covers, and a bad
fd is EBADF, so nothing is left for the caller to promise.

To lend such a slice, `AlignedBuf` holds `[MaybeUninit<u8>; BUF_SIZE]`
instead of `MaybeUninit<[u8; BUF_SIZE]>`: same size and alignment, still
uninitialised. `as_mut_ptr` and `filled` keep their signatures and bodies;
`as_mut_ptr` has no user left on Linux and Android, so it is compiled for
the other targets only.

The `libc::syscall` block stays and gets the same pointer and length.
There `OSPathSliceZ` is `ZStr`, and the arm was a second copy of
`exists_z`'s body, `unsafe { libc::access(path.as_ptr(), F_OK) == 0 }`.
It calls `exists_z(path)`, which lives in the same crate.
The three thread-local scratch slots were a `Cell<*mut PathBuffer>` that is
null until first use, filled with `heap::into_raw(Box::new(..))` and freed by a
hand-written `Drop` with `heap::take`: a lazily filled box spelled out by hand.
The slot is a `OnceCell` of the box, still one pointer wide. `lazy_path_buf`
fills it with `get_or_init`, and the `Drop` impl with its `unsafe` block goes,
because the box frees itself.

The block that turns the pointer into the `&'static mut PathBuffer` the callers
get stays as it was. The pointer comes from the `UnsafeCell` in the box.

The steps are the same: read the slot, allocate and store if it is empty, hand
out the buffer, and free it at thread exit if there is one. The path that finds
the slot filled is the same instructions. What is added is on a thread's first
use of a slot, three times per thread: the allocation sits in the cold
`OnceCell::try_init`, which is a call, and which tests after the allocation that
the slot is still empty.
The field was a `*mut [u8]` built with `slice_to_mut`, as if JSC patched it
in place like `File::bytecode`. Nothing writes it. The one place that reads
its bytes, the module loader hook in jsc_hooks.rs, turned it into a
`&'static [u8]` in an `unsafe` block and passed that to
`ModuleInfoDeserialized::create_with_table`, which keeps the slice and only
reads it. `to_bytes` appends each module's info as a range of its own, apart
from every bytecode range.

`from_bytes` takes it with `slice_to`, in the block that makes the other
read-only subslices. `slice_to` answers `b""` for a length of 0, so the `if`
around it goes. The hook reads the field. `prefetch_startup_pages` uses only
its address and length. The reference is formed when the graph is read, not
when the module is loaded.

The comments that listed module_info with the writable ranges name only the
bytecode.
…ph is handed out as `&'static`

After startup the graph was written through a `&mut` in one place:
`LazySourceMap::load(&mut self)` replaced its own enum variant under a
process-wide `INIT_LOCK`. Its `OnceLock` fields were filled after startup too,
and still are, but through `&self`. For that one write the singleton was an
`UnsafeCell` with a hand-written `Sync`; `get`, `set`, `from_executable`,
`from_descriptor`, `from_descriptors`, `from_payload` and `from_bytes_alloc`
carried `*mut StandaloneModuleGraph`; and the source map hook formed a `&mut
Graph` through `find(&mut self)` while the VM, the workers and the resolver hold
`&'static Graph`.

`LazySourceMap` is a struct of the serialized bytes (`None`: the file has no
map) and a `OnceLock<Option<Arc<ParsedSourceMap>>>`. `load(&self)` returns
`None` for a file without a map and is otherwise `get_or_init(..).clone()`, the
shape of `File::to_wtf_string`, around the body of the old `Serialized` arm. It
answers what it answered:
- no map: `None`;
- not parsed yet: parses, keeps one `Arc`, returns a clone of it;
- parsed: a clone of that same `Arc`;
- bytes that do not parse: `None`, on this call and on every later one, without
  parsing again.
When two threads ask for one file, one of them parses and the other waits and
gets the same `Arc` (or `None`), as under the lock.

The file's own `OnceLock` replaces the global lock. Loads of different files do
not wait for each other any more; the parse reads only the file's bytes and
allocates. Loading a parsed map takes one acquire load where it took a lock and
an unlock. `File` grows by 8 bytes: 192 to 200 on x86_64 Linux
(`LazySourceMap`: 24 to 32).

`INSTANCE` is a `OnceLock<StandaloneModuleGraph>`, which the graph's own
`Send`/`Sync` impls allow, and the seven functions above carry `&'static
StandaloneModuleGraph`, except `get`, which goes: `get_ref` is `INSTANCE.get()`.
`set` is `get_or_init`: it still keeps the first graph and drops a second one.
`find(&self)` ends in `lookup_file`, whose two `cfg` arms are those of the
deleted `find_assume_standalone_path(&mut self)` with `get` for `get_mut`.

Gone: `Instance` and its `unsafe impl Sync`, five `unsafe` blocks (`get_ref`,
`from_payload`, `boot_standalone`, `load_standalone_sourcemap`, one test) and
`INIT_LOCK`.
…auxval` is a `safe fn`

`Bun__getStandaloneModuleGraphELFVaddr` was a `safe fn` that returned
`*mut u64 // align(1)`. `get_data` tested the pointer for null and both callers
read it with `read_unaligned` in an `unsafe` block.

The C++ (src/jsc/bindings/c-bindings.cpp) is `return &BUN_COMPILED.size;`, the
first member of a global that is never null and is 8-byte aligned:

    #define BLOB_HEADER_ALIGNMENT 8
    struct BlobHeader { uint64_t size; uint8_t data[]; }
        __attribute__((aligned(BLOB_HEADER_ALIGNMENT)));
    extern "C" BlobHeader __attribute__((section(".bun"),
        aligned(BLOB_HEADER_ALIGNMENT), used)) BUN_COMPILED = { 0 };

Linux, Android and FreeBSD share that text. Nothing in src/ or packages/ writes
the global in a running process: `bun build --compile` patches the 8 bytes in
the file it produces (exe_format/elf_payload.rs, `write_payload_headers`), and
the only other user, `Bun__askForAddressSpaceToStart` in BunAOTRuntime.cpp,
reads it with a plain `*`. So the getter returns `&'static u64`. The null test
goes, the two reads are aligned 8-byte loads where the source asked for
unaligned ones, and `find_loaded_module` gets the reference's address. The macOS
getter can return null and stays as it is.

`Bun__sizeOfPayloadWithCompiledProgram` also called `libc::getauxval` twice in a
block. It takes one integer by value, looks it up in the vector the kernel gave
the process, and answers 0 for a type that is not there, so the caller has
nothing to uphold. It is declared `safe fn` in the module's `extern` block,
under the `cfg` of its caller because FreeBSD has no `getauxval`, with the
signature the `libc` crate has, like `gettid`, `getpid` and `kill` elsewhere.
`try_read` walks the entry point records as `&[u8; RECORD_SIZE]` chunks and
copied each one out with `read_unaligned` in an `unsafe` block, whose comment
said that every bit pattern is a valid record. `impl_pod!` in place of
`impl_no_uninit!` has rustc prove that for both record types, and
`bun_core::read_prefix(bytes)?` makes the copy.

`read_prefix` is `#[inline(always)]` and tests `bytes.len() < size_of::<T>()`.
Here the length is that of the array type, `RECORD_SIZE`, and the `const`
assertion above the macro says that
`size_of::<CompiledEntryPointRecord>() == RECORD_SIZE`. The test compares two
constants, and the `?` never returns.

The read of the header record stays in its block: its slice comes from
`Payload::bytes`, so its length is a constant only where that call is inlined.
…&JSModuleLoader`

`IdentifierArray::shared(&VM, usize)` passed its reference on as `*const VM`
inside an `unsafe` block. The C++ (`Bun__VM__sharedModuleInfoIdentifiers` in
BunAnalyzeTranspiledModule.cpp) takes `VM&` and a `size_t`, grows
`clientData(vm)->sharedModuleInfoIdentifiers`, a `Vector<Identifier>`
(BunClientData.h), to `count` if it is shorter, and returns its data pointer.
Any `count` is served or crashes on purpose: `Vector::growImpl`
(WTF/wtf/Vector.h) ends in `allocateBuffer<Crash>`, which calls `CRASH()` for a
capacity that `isValidCapacityForVector` refuses. `VM` is `!Send + !Sync`. The
result is a raw pointer, and every read of it is still inside an `unsafe fn`
(`is_null`, `set`) or an `unsafe` block (the `JSModuleRecordExt` shims). So the
import is `safe fn(&VM, usize)`, like `JSC__IdentifierArray__create` below it,
and the block goes.

`zig__ModuleInfoDeserialized__toJSModuleRecord`, `to_js_module_record` and
`JSModuleRecord::create` are safe functions that took `*mut JSModuleLoader`
while every other pointer they take is a reference (five in the first two, four
in `create`). `create` hands them to C++ under the comment "all pointer args
derive from valid references", which did not hold for the loader. C++ calls the
export in two places, and both pass the `this` of a running `JSModuleLoader`
member function:
- `Bun__analyzeTranspiledModule` in BunAnalyzeTranspiledModule.cpp, whose one
  caller, in JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSModuleLoader.cpp, passes `this`;
- `createEmbeddedModuleRecord` in ZigGlobalObject.cpp, called by
  `StandaloneGlobalObject::moduleLoaderFetch` and by `collectStandaloneClosure`,
  which that function also calls, each time with its own `loader`.
  `moduleLoaderFetch` is reached only through the method table, from
  JSModuleLoader.cpp, which passes `this`.
The three take `&JSModuleLoader`, a zero-sized opaque type, and `create` passes
`as_mut_ptr()`, which returns the reference's own address. In the C ABI
`&JSModuleLoader` and `*mut JSModuleLoader` are both one pointer argument, so
its place does not change; the export's parameter now also carries `nonnull`.

`JSC_JSModuleRecord__create` stays an unsafe import. Its last two counts go to
`OrderedHashTable::reserveInitialCapacity`, and `bucketCountForKeyCount`
(WTF/wtf/OrderedHashTable.h) shifts its `uint32_t` to 0 and loops for ever on a
count above 2^30.
…safe fn`

`XxHash64State::new` and `digest` cast their own storage to `*mut u8` and
`*const u8` and called the kernel in an `unsafe` block. The state is `#[repr(C,
align(8))]` over `[u64; 10]`, and src/jsc/bindings/xxhash3.cpp:659-660 asserts
that the C++ `XXH64State` has that size and alignment, so a reference to the
state says all that the two functions need:

- `highway_xxhash64_reset` (xxhash3.cpp:685) calls `XXH64_reset` (:434): a
  `memset` of `sizeof(XXH64State)` and four stores. It reads nothing.
- `highway_xxhash64_digest` (:695) calls `XXH64_digest` (:494), which reads the
  fields and passes the 32-byte buffer and `memsize` to `XXH64_finalize` (:341).
  That starts with `len &= 31`, so it reads at most 31 bytes of the buffer
  whatever the state holds. It writes nothing.

They take `&mut XxHash64State` and `&XxHash64State`. The struct's address is
that of its only field, so the same pointer is passed. `highway_xxhash64_update`
takes a pointer and a length as well, so it stays an unsafe import; its state
parameter is `&mut XxHash64State` like that of `reset`.

bun-sema's weak stand-ins (src/sema/standalone/native.rs:412 and :461) keep
their raw pointers. The first writes one whole 80-byte state, the second slices
its buffer with a bounds check.
…me file are `safe static`

`note()` in crash_handler/build_id.rs and `state()` in
trim/removable_features/state.rs each borrowed an extern static in an `unsafe`
block. Both symbols are defined just above their declaration, by the
`global_asm!` of the target (Mach-O, PE, or ELF):

- `Bun__buildIdNote` (build_id.rs:7, :19, :32): three `.long`, `.asciz "Bun"`
  and `.zero 16`, the 32 bytes of `[u8; NOTE_SIZE]`.
- `Bun__removableFeatureState` (state.rs:43, :54, :65): `.p2align 3`, 8 bytes of
  magic and `.zero 528`. The `const` assertion above them says that
  `RemovableFeatureState` has size 536 and alignment 8. Its fields are integers
  and byte arrays, so every bit pattern is a value.

The six sections are read-only (`__TEXT`, `"dr"`, `"a"`), and no code in src/
stores to either symbol. The C++ that reads them declares them `const`
(ZigGlobalObject.cpp, JavaScriptCore/aot/runtime/AOTRemovableFeature.h).

Reading them has no precondition, so the declarations say `safe static` and
take the `SAFETY` comments. The two accessors stay, because Miri has its own
arm of each, and return `&NOTE` and `&STATE`.
…`u8`

`decode` read `char_to_index`, a `[u8; 256]`, with
`get_unchecked(c as usize)`, where `c` is a `u8`. An index widened from a `u8`
is at most 255, so the bounds check of `self.char_to_index[c as usize]` compares
a value of that range with the constant 256. `Base64DecoderWithIgnore::decode`,
further down, indexes the same table in the same way.
Nothing makes a `z_stream` through the trait. `ZStream::new` in bun_zlib is the
only place that builds one, and it writes a struct literal with the allocator
functions filled in. bun_zlib is the only crate that depends on bun_zlib_sys,
and it does not re-export the type.

The impl was the crate's only use of `bun_core`, so that dependency goes as
well.
…trlimit`

`handle_root_error` and `suppress_core_dumps_if_necessary` called
`libc::getrlimit` and `libc::setrlimit` in three `unsafe` blocks, under comments
saying that `bun_sys::posix` has no rlimit functions. It has them, over the same
two libc symbols declared `safe fn` with reference parameters, and the resolver
already uses them.

What differs: the call goes through a function of another crate. Failure is `rc
< 0` instead of `rc != 0` (both calls return 0 or -1). On failure `errno` is
read and a `bun_sys::Error` is built and dropped, also for `setrlimit`, whose
result was not looked at. The two limits are copied into `Rlimit { cur: u64,
max: u64 }`, and back for `setrlimit`. On FreeBSD `rlim_t` is `i64`, so there
the limit is compared and printed as `u64`.

One old comment gave async-signal-safety as a reason for libc. The two `bun_sys`
functions do not allocate, lock or log on any path: the two `Box<[u8]>` fields
of the `Error` are empty, and an empty boxed slice reaches the allocator neither
when it is made nor when it is dropped. Neither of the two crash_handler
functions is called from the signal handler.

The helper in `handle_root_error` returns the soft limit, the one field that its
three callers read, so the third falls back to 0 instead of a zeroed struct.
`suppress_core_dumps_if_necessary` tested `cur > 0 || cur == RLIM_INFINITY`.
`RLIM_INFINITY` is greater than 0 on every target, so the second half never
decided anything and is gone.

`libc::rlimit` leaves the `Zeroable` list of `bun_pod`, since these were the
places that zero-initialized one. `Rlimit` loses its `impl_zeroable!`, which
nothing used.
…r references

Four `unsafe` blocks held only `libc::sigemptyset(&raw mut act.sa_mask)` on a
local `sigaction`. A fifth, in `crash`, filled a local `sigset_t` with
`sigemptyset` and `sigaddset` and gave it to `pthread_sigmask` with a null old
set.

Each of the three reads or writes one `sigset_t` behind each non-null pointer.
They are declared beside `_exit` and `raise` with `&mut sigset_t`, `&sigset_t`
and `Option<&mut sigset_t>`, which put that into the types, as `clock_gettime`
in `bun_core` and `getrlimit` in `bun_sys` do.

For `sigemptyset` and `pthread_sigmask` the pointers are all that a caller can
get wrong, so they are `safe fn`s. `how` is a plain integer, and POSIX requires
`EINVAL` for one that is none of its three constants; musl tests it itself, the
others leave it to the kernel.

`sigaddset` stays an unsafe import. POSIX only says that it may fail with
`EINVAL` for a `signum` that is no signal number, and a libc that does not test
it shifts by it. Its call keeps a block of its own, on the ground that
`terminal_signal` answers with one of libc's constants.

On Linux with glibc or musl, without ASAN and with `ENABLE(AOT)`,
`pthread_sigmask` resolves to Bun's own definition
(src/jsc/bindings/BunSignalActions.cpp). For a caller
inside the executable it hands `how`, `set` and `previousSet` on untouched to
the function that `dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, ..)` found.

The same symbols are called with the same arguments in the same order.
…h_path` on the path they hold

`GlobWalker::handle_sys_err_with_path` copied the failing path into
`self.path_buf` with `ptr::copy` and then called
`err.with_path(&self.path_buf[..len])`, which boxes a copy of those bytes
anyway. The four callers box the path they already hold, and the function is
gone.

Nothing else read the copy. `walker.path_buf` is read in two places,
`Iterator::init` and the symlink arm of `Iterator::next`, and each writes the
path and its NUL into the buffer before it reads them back. The `min` with the
length of the buffer never cut anything: all four paths are `ZStr`s that lie in
a `PathBuffer` together with their NUL, so they are shorter than it.

What differs: three error paths lose a memmove. In the fourth, the symlink arm,
source and destination were the same address and the copy was skipped; what ends
there is `self.path_buf.as_mut_ptr()`, a `&mut PathBuffer` over the very bytes
that the `&ZStr` argument borrowed.
… back-pointers

`List.tail` and `Group.tail` were `Option<NonNull<_>>` into the chains that the
same struct owns. Only `and_range` and `or_range` followed them, in three
`unsafe` blocks, and only while a `Group` was being built. For that they stayed
in every finished `Group`, needed four hand-written `Send` and `Sync` impls, and
made `Clone` walk each chain a second time to find its own last nodes.

Both fields are gone. `parse_with` keeps a private `Tail` in a local: `&mut` to
the first range of the last `List`, to the empty `next` of the last `Query` of
that `List`, to the empty `next` of that `List`, and one flag that says what
`self.tail.is_some() || self.head.tail.is_some()` said. `and_range` and
`or_range` take it by value and return the next one instead of a `Result` that
was always `Ok(())`. They test the same ranges, allocate the same boxes and
store them in the same slots, so any sequence of calls builds the same chains.

`Group.tail` was `Some` exactly when `Group.head.next` was, and `List.tail`
exactly when `List.head.next` was, so the two conditions in `GroupFormatter`
that read the fields read those instead. The first of them is then
`Group::is_empty` word for word, and calls it. `eql` never read them. `Clone for
Group` is derived, and `Group` and `List` are `Send + Sync` by themselves.

`Group::or_range` was `pub` for one caller, `any_of` in the `n` lint plugin,
which becomes `Group::any_of`. The test that compared the `tail` fields of a
clone goes with the fields. `List` is 8 bytes smaller and `Group` 16.
`RUNNER` was a `RacyCell<Option<NonNull<TestRunner>>>` and `WORKER_CMDS` a
`RacyCell<Option<*mut WorkerCommands>>`, so every read and write of the two
pointers was an `unsafe` block of its own. Both are now `AtomicPtr`, null for
`None`, loaded and stored with `Relaxed`. Seven blocks go. The blocks that
dereference a loaded pointer stay: `Jest::runner`, the users of
`Jest::runner_ptr`, `worker_emit_test_done` and `worker_ends_at_bail`.

Each access is a relaxed atomic load or store of the pointer where it was a
plain one. `WORKER_CMDS` is one pointer tested against null instead of a
discriminant and a pointer. `exec` stores `&raw mut reporter.jest` instead of
`NonNull::from(&mut reporter.jest)`.
`bun_io` had two `unsafe trait`s of its own, `IntrusiveIoRequest` and (on
Windows) `IntrusiveUvFs`. Each was a `const` offset, an `unsafe fn` that calls
`container_of` with it, and a macro that stamps the `unsafe impl`.

None of the five call sites is generic, so none needs a trait. They use
`bun_core::from_field_ptr!(T, io_request, ptr)`, which expands to the same
`container_of` call with the same `offset_of!`. `ReadFile::on_request_readable`
already recovers the same field that way. Both traits, both macros and the four
impls they stamped (`ReadFile`, `WriteFile`, and on Windows `Closer` and
`WriteFileWindows`) are deleted. The call sites keep their `unsafe` blocks.

Type-level only: the same constant goes to the same `container_of`.
`HashedString` was `{ pub ptr: *const u8, pub len: u32, hash: u32 }` with a safe
`str()` that rebuilt the slice with `from_raw_parts`. Nothing tied the value to
the buffer it pointed into, and safe code could set `ptr` and `len` to anything.

Its only user is `bun_router::pattern`. Every `Pattern` there is a local of
`match_`, `validate` or a test, built from a slice that outlives it. So the
borrow is written down: `HashedString<'a> { str: &'a [u8], hash: u32 }`,
`Value<'a>`, `Pattern<'a>`, and `Pattern::init`, `init_unhashed` and
`init_maybe_hash` return `Pattern<'_>`. The `unsafe` block in `str()` goes.
`#[repr(C)]` goes too: no C or C++ code names the type.

What differs: the length stays a `usize` instead of being cut to `u32` and
widened again (route paths fit in `u16`, so the value is the same).
`HashedString` is 24 bytes instead of 16, and `Pattern` 40 instead of 32; both
only live on the stack. `EMPTY` points at an empty slice instead of
`0xDEADBEEF`.

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

Beyond the inline note, I also checked two of the behavior-preservation points in this sweep and they hold up: the new Tail::or_range/and_range cursor in src/semver/SemverQuery.rs reproduces the old Group::or_range/List::and_range overwrite-vs-append conditions exactly (grown covers both the Group tail and the head List tail the old checks read), and dropping the explicit RLIM_INFINITY branch in suppress_core_dumps_if_necessary is fine because bun_sys::posix::Rlimit::cur is a u64 and RLIM_INFINITY casts to a nonzero value on every unix target, so cur > 0 still catches it.

Extended reasoning...

A 60-file, 36-commit unsafe-reduction refactor across bun_sys, bun_core (AtomicCell rewrite), semver, the standalone module graph, the crash handler and the test runner statics; it touches no auth, crypto or input-parsing surface beyond the semver range parser. It is too large and too deep in memory-safety-sensitive code to approve on an automated pass, and one inline finding is being posted, so this note only records what was additionally examined and ruled out.

Walkthrough

This pull request updates Rust ownership, data, atomic, and FFI interfaces across compiler, runtime, networking, and system code. It replaces selected raw-pointer operations with references or owned handles and updates affected callers.

Changes

Rust API and ownership refactoring

Layer / File(s) Summary
Core data and compiler contracts
src/bun_core/*, src/ast/*, src/bundler/*, src/js_parser/*, src/paths/*, src/resolver/*, src/standalone_graph/*, src/semver/*, src/css/*, src/parsers/*
Core and compiler data structures now use lifetime-bound slices, BackRef/StoreRef handles, Cell state, and shared references in place of selected raw pointers. Bundler worker and pool access, AST allocator tracking, query construction, and standalone graph APIs use updated interfaces.
Runtime state and web data ownership
src/jsc/*, src/runtime/*, src/watcher/*, src/http/*, src/install/*, src/io/*
Runtime task, watcher, worker, subprocess, and proxy-tunnel paths use updated atomic pointers, RefPtr ownership, and callback signatures. Blob read and conversion paths distinguish owned buffers from store-backed bytes. Request and response header paths use FetchHeaders and an owning HeadersRef wrapper.
System and FFI contracts
src/sys/*, src/uws_sys/*, src/runtime/node/quic/*, src/runtime/image/*, src/cares_sys/*, src/libuv_sys/*
System-call and networking bindings use typed references, fixed-size address buffers, and safe wrappers. QUIC and uWS callbacks pass typed references, and image-codec handles use typed opaque references. Supporting tests, documentation, and dependency declarations are updated.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Return an empty set from Group::any_of when the iterator is empty.

With no ranges, any_of returns Group::default(). That group has an unset first range, so Group::satisfies accepts every stable version. An empty disjunction should match no version. The module's null_set already represents the empty set.

src/semver/SemverQuery.rs:493-495
Minor · Functional Correctness · Poor tradeoff

Keep a comparator-free first alternative in Tail::or_range.

Tail::or_range overwrites the first slot whenever it has no left comparator. A match-all alternative such as Range::default() is then lost. A later caret range replaces it, so a version such as 2.0.0 that only the match-all alternative accepts is rejected. Only Group::any_of reaches this path, and its only production caller passes caret ranges with concrete versions. The base Group::or_range uses the same overwrite condition, so this behavior is inherited rather than new.

Possible direction

No safe localized edit is established. A comparator-free Range is also the default Group head, so the code cannot distinguish an empty placeholder from a real match-all alternative without a new state flag.

Included review availability: This review used your included allowance. Your plan provides up to 10 included reviews per hour; 9 remain after this review.

`Jest::RUNNER`, `WORKER_CMDS`, `SCOPED_FILE_WRITER` and `TEMPDIR_HANDLE` were
cells whose SAFETY comments named the thread that touches them. Earlier commits
here made them atomics that are loaded and stored with `Relaxed`, and dropped
those comments with the `unsafe` blocks. REVIEW.md asks for a comment on every
ordering weaker than `SeqCst`, so each declaration says why:

- `RUNNER` and `WORKER_CMDS` are stored and loaded on one thread.
- `SCOPED_FILE_WRITER` holds a descriptor number and `TEMPDIR_HANDLE` a HANDLE.
  No memory is published through either.

These are the only `Relaxed` orderings that this series adds. Comments only.

Where the compiled code changes, continued. The description is at the size limit, so the notes on two of its four kinds of difference are here: 21 places where the program does the same work in another place or order, and 22 where the compiler made another choice for the same work. "Change 7" under "Part 3" is row 7 of the table of part 3 in the description. The figures are instructions on x86-64 Linux, from one comparison for each part.

Same work, in another place or order

Part 1:

  • bun_sys::sendfile enters the kernel through libc's syscall(SYS_sendfile, ..) instead of libc's sendfile (change 5): 2 more instructions.
  • RuntimeTranspilerCache::put fills its four iovecs with copies of the first entry instead of zeroes (change 11): 2 more instructions.
  • Jest::RUNNER and WORKER_CMDS are loaded and stored with relaxed atomics, which are plain movs on x86-64, and WORKER_CMDS is one word instead of two (change 28). Jest::runner (22 instructions) was a function of its own and is inlined at its four call sites, in Expect::snapshot, Expect::inline_snapshot and TestCommand::run. Nineteen functions of the test runner differ in more than a constant or a name, most by 0 to 8 instructions. Expect::snapshot is 67 shorter, the binding of toMatchFileSnapshot is 22 longer and the binding of the hooks 14. None has a new callee.
  • AtomicBool::load tests the byte against 0 where the cell compared it with 1 (change 35).
  • Since the merges of main (commits 153 and 154): find_assume_standalone_path (265 instructions since AOT: bun compile, build output, module mocks, fixes and new names #48436) is gone (change 16). That leaves key_of_file_above_root (286) one caller, lookup_file, which holds it inline (141 to 389).

Part 2:

  • The promise of a DNS request (change 18) is read in init instead of in each caller: GetAddrInfoRequest::init has one call more (+4), Bun.dns.lookup one fewer (−5).
  • The thread's coverage map (change 31) is looked up in the two callers of find (+20 and +24) instead of in find (−33).
  • take_protos and take_server_name (change 14) clear the field after the copy instead of before, which costs one more saved register (+5 each).
  • do_preconnect (change 15) passes an empty Vec, three words in place of one byte, and copies its URL argument with a memcpy (+9). preconnect itself has two calls fewer.

Part 3:

  • close_out (change 7), 93 instructions, only before, is inlined at both call sites in Cmd::buffered_output_close (245 to 326): 338 to 326 together. The 20 branches and 4 calls that the caller gains are those of the two copies. Each copy stores one byte, where close_out took the reader's buffer, freed the old vector and stored three words.
  • take_captured_error (change 7), 86 instructions, only before, is inlined into its two callers, Yield::run (2,154 to 2,256) and finish_after_state_set (164 to 194): 2,404 to 2,450 together. The 8 calls and the panic site that each gains, for a failed allocation, are the callee's. The copies test state in place and free no Done payload.
  • Writable::finalize and a closure of close_io (change 12), 114 and 45 instructions, only before, had two call sites each in Subprocess::close_io, with and without a claimed reference. The two paths are now one, which tests at its end whether there is a reference, and both callees are inlined into it (148 to 214). The 10 calls it gains are theirs. With on_process_exit and the drop glue: 841 to 765.
  • on_scripts_error (change 16) does not read self.progress, and the compiler passes it summary and manager instead of self: four loads fewer, one argument more (119 to 120). The loads are on the error paths of its callers, spawn_scripts (79 to 82, with one more register move where there is no error) and enqueue_lifecycle_scripts_for_trusted (678 to 691). The latter also passes the stack arguments of three calls with push: 7 pushes and 4 stack adjustments for 4 stores.

Part 4:

  • RefString (change 3) is 32 bytes instead of 48. clear_ref_string (70) is inlined into free_ref_string (23 to 85, 10 more branches, 3 bounds-check sites in place of one unwrap_failed): 93 before, 85 after. leak() (13) is two loads at its call sites in the FileSystemRouter getters and MatchedRoute::get_src (2 to 5 shorter each).
  • vm.jsc_vm for the transpiler store (change 10). Its load, null test and cold call of null_handle are in the RuntimeTranspilerStore arm of run_task (348 to 351, one more branch and call site). No other arm differs. run_from_js_thread had the load and the test three times (801 to 802, 3 branches fewer).
  • WorkPool::go (change 14) is inlined into its two users, getaddrinfo (543) and OldModules::remove in bun_install (70), which keep their length: one allocation, one call of schedule, one store of the callback, after the other fields. The callbacks (7 and 17) have another name.
  • init_bake and init_with_module_graph (change 8) are 3 longer, all moves: log and the loader are no longer neighbours in InitOptions, so one 16-byte copy is two of 8.
  • A failed socketpair (change 15). <i32 as GetErrno>::get_errno (26, only before) tested its argument for −1 and then read errno. Its one caller, createSocketPair (95 to 98), makes that test itself and calls the rest, bun_errno::last_error (22, only after).

Part 5:

  • Callees now inlined.
    • to_string_with_bytes::<Transfer> (126) is in Blob::to_string (+106, 21 branches), its two array-buffer siblings (43, 59) in to_array_buffer_view (+7, +12), ToJsonWithBytesFn::owned in its wrap::call (+7). That of Uint8Array (+3) saves one more register, because it frees the buffer after the throw (10, 11).
    • Request::clone (77) is in Request__clone (+43), Bun__Bindgen__RequestPrototype__clone (+47) and the server's fetch binding (+42) (9).
    • s3_store is in S3BlobStatTask::start (123 to 116) and get_presign_url_from (351 to 344, with its panic site) (7).
    • clean_entries (208, unrolled) is a loop in enqueue (+19, 7 branches) and in deinit (59), now a function of its own, which release_unrun (14 to 1) jumps to (15). The dispatcher's copy of release_unrun is 13 shorter too.
  • The load of the pool (change 26) moves from Worker::get (163 to 160) into its callers, seven of which are 1 longer: one load for each task, as before. create, once for each thread and pool, loads self.ctx instead of storing it.
  • Also on one side only: clone_into (156) and clone_with_url (174) (9), three more Lifetime instantiations and to_json_with_bytes (10), create_node_fs (18), BlobArrayBuffer_deallocator (2), seven LazyLock closures in three crates and relative_paths_list_ptr::slow (30), 15 merged BabyVec functions (29), and the coder's deref, which is the drop glue of its RefPtr with the same body (4).

Differences that are the compiler's choice, with the same work

Part 1:

  • setRawMode (59 to 76) has the call to Bun__ttySetMode twice, once for each value of its argument (change 31).
  • process_inotify_event_batch (803 to 829), WorkspaceMap::process_names_array (4,259 to 4,352), edit_after_resolve_slow (+19), relative_platform_buf (+18), Plan::make of bun_format (+14), is_in_range (+12) and Rule::parse (+10) differ in register allocation, in stack slots and in how often a clean-up block or a panic call is repeated. None has a new callee or a new check.
  • from_bytes of the standalone graph (2,326 to 2,322) lays its blocks out in another order and tests two bits of its flags word once more each. It runs once, when a compiled executable starts.
  • dir_info::ref_at_index (39) is a function of its own and BSSMapInner::slot_at (28) is inlined, where it was the other way round (change 35).

Part 2:

  • mi_process_info of the standalone type checker (change 32) makes the same eight null tests and stores in the source. The compiler emits 21 instructions instead of 27, with five branches fewer.
  • Resolver::reverse (+6) has its call to ares_gethostbyaddr twice (change 18), and ErrorReportRequest::on_body one of its panic calls (change 35).
  • resumeSNI (two copies), and first_call, two on_data trampolines and one on_handshake trampoline of the HTTP client, are one instruction longer.
  • Since commit 155: the dev server's on_defer (417 to 423) repeats a short block at the end of two others, where it jumped to it. cork of NodeHTTPResponse (113 to 114) calls uws_res_cork in both HTTP/1 arms, where one arm jumped to the other's call. Neither has a new branch or compare. Until then the shorter null panic of change 4 had made both shorter than on main.

Part 3:

  • PackageManager::init (2,275 to 2,285; change 19): register moves, reloads from the stack on error returns and one repeated clean-up block, with its call to __rust_dealloc.
  • StatWatcherScheduler::work_pool_callback (425 to 426) is the one user of UnboundedQueue that differs (change 2): one value is stored to the stack later, with one more move. The queue's loads and exchanges are the same.
  • ClientContext::connect (372 to 373; change 27) repeats a movb $1, %al before a jump, where it jumped to the one that was there. No null test is added.
  • Bun__FakeTimers__runStep (679; change 9) swaps two registers.
  • The other four functions of the same length differ in offsets, in the order of their blocks or in the width of a compare. BufferedIoState's drop (change 7; 14, only before) had no call site.

Part 4:

  • Interpreter::next_node (3,446 to 3,459, 2 more compares): beyond the null test, one more copy of the block that appends a slice to the output, and moves.
  • TestCommand::exec (11,498): the changed lines are a load that became a register move (change 4). The rest is stack slots.
  • Five functions that read errno (change 15) differ, with the same callees: SendFile::write in bun_http (103 to 97, 2 more branches), the IO thread's entry in bun_io (266 to 267) and three of the same length (bun_sys::realpath, throw_listen_failed and the inotify thread's entry, whose blocks are in another order). with_errno and errno() are inlined everywhere, and packets_out of the QUIC endpoint is the same.
  • A Vec<&[u8]> collect next to the one of change 2 (75) has another name.

Part 5:

  • match_imports_with_exports_for_file (+4; change 28): the cold block of a failed expect stands twice, hence the call and panic site. No test or load is new.
  • work_pool_callback (426 to 433; 12) inlines restat, so the bool costs no test. The block that frees a failed stat's paths stands on both exits, before the hop is posted.
  • Request::clone_headers (+2; 1) stores the tag on each of three exits, and tests it and copies the pointer as before. Response::clone_init_headers is inlined into callers that differ in a name.
  • run_with_source_code (+2; 27), task_callback_wrap (+4) and the macro thread's entry (+2) spill more. finish_from_bake_dev_server and generate_chunks_in_parallel (−6 each; 26), ContextParameter::of (−5; 28) and a few more (−1 or −2) have moves fewer. None has a new callee.
  • The 16 functions of the same length differ in offsets, in registers or in the order of their blocks.

7b1aa72: four commits on the second merge. The first fixes the size test that failed in build 139781.

  • What failed: test/bundler/compile-aot-size.test.ts, "hello world maps no more bytes than it did", on Debian 13 x64 and Ubuntu 25.04 x64. The numbers are from the logs of the jobs:

    A hello world built with main (139772) 3a3faf6 (139781) bound
    --compile --aot 68,430,152 68,442,296 +12,144 68,440,000
    --compile --aot --trim 25,975,112 25,970,872 −4,240 25,990,000
  • The cause was this PR: change 4 of part 2 (565a53a).

    • OpaqueHandle::as_handle panicked in place on a null handle, with its own message in each arm of a dispatcher. opaque_deref_mut calls the shared cold null_handle(). That made every AnyResponse method 15 bytes shorter.
    • CI links Linux x64 with LTO across Rust, Bun's C++ and JSC. There the smallest methods came under the inliner's threshold, and 14 of them lost 283 call sites between them. The largest: should_close_connection 182 to 80, has_responded 89 to 33, is_closed 41 to 16, clear_on_writable 25 to 3, close_if_done_and_marked 29 to 8, clear_aborted 19 to 0, clear_timeout 19 to 2 and clear_on_data 40 to 28.
    • Each copy is a four-way match with a jump table of its own. Nearly all are in the HTTP server, which --trim removes from a hello world, so only the first measure went up.
    • It cost size only. Each of those places made one call fewer.
  • The fix is commit 155 (6a53a5a). as_handle comes back as a private safe fn: the assert! that main has, then opaque_deref_mut, whose own null test folds. The trait, its unsafe block and its three unsafe impls stay deleted. So the counts stay: 420 unsafe blocks, 130 unsafe fns and 50 unsafe impls fewer than main.

  • Measured: I linked the trimmable release build with --lto=on on one machine (Linux x64, with the system's ICU, so it is smaller than CI's). In bytes against main:

    3a3faf6 7b1aa72
    hello world, --aot +16,440 −4,040
    hello world, --aot --trim +56 −4,040
    .text −448 −14,784
    .rodata +8,256 +64
    entries of jump tables +938 +8

    With the fix, two AnyResponse methods have fewer call sites than on main, three between them.

  • CI agrees. In builds 139824, on commit 157, and 139831, on commit 158, the test passes on both Linux x64 jobs. The hello world maps 68,421,816 bytes, 8,336 fewer than on main and 18,184 under the bound. With --trim it maps 25,970,872, as in 139781.

  • The bound is untouched. main is 9,848 bytes under it. The comment over it gives 67,894,605 as the measure when it was last set. Three other branches that were built on today's main fail the same test (builds 139774, 139780 and 139784), one or both bounds each.

  • Two corrections. Earlier versions of this comment estimated that main was less than a page under the bound, and put the difference down to the page boundaries at which code is cut out. Both were wrong. My first comparison had LTO over the Rust crates only, and there this PR makes the executable smaller.

  • Commits 156 and 157 are the two nits that I had promised in review threads. The get_mut() of the bundler's pool is written in deinit_without_freeing_arena, and the box of the JSON tape goes through heap::release. Commit 158 follows my own review of commits 155 to 157: four comments say more or say it rightly, and take_tape takes the box back with heap::take. Commits 156 to 158 change no code: no function differs in the assembly of any crate, and .text of the LTO build is the same byte for byte, but for the commit hash that two functions hold.

  • Checked on 7b1aa72:

    • cargo fmt --check, clippy (0 warnings), the source lints, and cargo check --release for Linux, Windows, macOS and FreeBSD.
    • The trimmable release link on Linux x64, with LTO: no feature fails its check.
    • The assembly table in the description is new. Against 3a3faf6, 43 functions of bun_uws_sys and 87 of bun_runtime have one panic site more, and no other function differs but for the commit hash in one.
    • A debug build of commit 157 and one of main print the same for 24 requests and a WebSocket session, each over TCP, over TLS and in development mode: static routes, files, ranges, streams, handlers that throw or reject, a missing response, Connection: close, redirects and upgrades.
    • On that build, 14 of 16 test files for the server and for JSON pass completely, 1,210 tests. serve-http3 and node-http were cut off after 50 seconds.
  • Build 139831 on it passed: all 188 jobs, with no failing file.

    • The four macOS x64 test jobs ran last, from 21:34Z to 22:18Z on 10 Nov. Before that they had expired at 19:05Z, at 20:05Z and at 21:06Z before a machine had taken them, and were queued again each time. GitHub showed the build as failed in between. The same jobs expired in 19 of the 38 other builds from 139812 to 139851, all of other branches, between 17:05Z and 19:05Z.
    • Binary size: none of the 12 release binaries is larger than main's in 139772. The targets that are linked with LTO across Rust and C++ moved most against 139781: bun-linux-x64 from +3.9 KB to −16.1 KB, bun-linux-x64-musl from 0.0 to −20.0 KB, bun-darwin-x64 from +1.1 KB to −32.0 KB and bun-windows-x64 from −6.0 KB to −24.0 KB.
    • 8 files passed on a retry, or alone after they failed in the parallel batch. Earlier versions of this comment said 2. That was wrong: it was 6 then, and I had read only the first entry of each of the build's two lists. The macOS x64 jobs added format.test.ts and gc-controller-cadence.test.ts. I looked each up in the 250 other builds that I had gone through (139560 to 139810, all of main or of other people's branches). Each is there with the same test: compiled-code-mapping.test.ts in 1, format.test.ts in 3, wasm-memory-dropped.test.ts in 10 (main's 139772 among them), history-of-interface-and-repl.test.ts in 12, fetch-leak.test.ts in 18, process-stdin.test.ts in 32, mock-module-runs-3.test.ts in 43 and gc-controller-cadence.test.ts in 107 (main's 139578 among them).
      • The two rarest, in full. format.test.ts: "exits with 0 if the reader closes the pipe early" gets ENOTCONN for a write to standard output, here and in 139624, 139665 and 139769, always on macOS. compiled-code-mapping.test.ts: the 15 addresses at which three runs map a compiled program must all differ. 14 differ here, and 12 in 139624. This PR changes no mmap call: the only two changed lines that name it are deleted comments.
    • Build 139824, on commit 157, had finished 157 of its 188 jobs with no failing file when the push of commit 158 cancelled it.

The second merge: 3a3faf6 merged main at 89452d2. #48436 had conflicted with this PR in one file.

  • How it was resolved is in the message of the merge commit. find_assume_standalone_path(&mut self) stays removed, as in the first merge. main gave it a second fallback, for a file above the root of a compiled program, and gave lookup_file the same one, which is what find calls in this PR.
    • The two can part for a name below the root that is not normalized, where the first fallback gives the key of a folder and the second that of a file. The removed function then found nothing, and lookup_file finds the file. find has one caller, the source-map lookup for a stack frame.
    • I built that case: an --aot executable in which <root>/pub/../sub is such a name, and a frame that carries it through //# sourceURL=. A build of main and one of the merge print the same stack, because an asset has no source map.
    • In the other 264 files the lines that this PR adds and removes are the same as before the merge. Nothing that is new on main had to be adapted.
  • The counts stayed: 420 unsafe blocks, 130 unsafe fns and 50 unsafe impls fewer than that main.
  • Checked on the merge commit:
    • cargo fmt --check, clippy (0 warnings), the source lints, and cargo check --release for Linux, Windows, macOS and FreeBSD.
    • The trimmable release link on Linux x64: no feature fails its check.
    • A debug build of the merge and one of main print the same for all that is listed under the first merge below. They also do for compiled programs, plain and --aot, with files above the root, assets that are found by their base names and names that are not normalized.
  • Build 139781 of 3a3faf6 failed in that one file, which passes in main's build of 89452d2 (139772). 184 of the 188 jobs finished, and no other file failed.
    • The other four are the macOS x64 tests. They expired at 16:05Z on 10 Nov before a machine had taken them, as on 7 and 8 Nov. They were queued again, and the next push cancelled them.
    • 6 files passed on a retry, or alone after they failed in the parallel batch. I looked each up in 250 other builds (139560 to 139810), all of main or of other people's branches. Each is there too: bun-audit.test.ts in 3, structured-clone-fastpath.test.ts in 7, bun-install-git-deps.test.ts in 8, wasm-memory-dropped.test.ts in 10, node-net.test.ts in 17 with the same test, and no-orphans.test.ts in 31. main's 139772 has the fourth and the fifth.

The first merge: 0ca2d30 merged main at 2596ac5. #47942 had conflicted with this PR in four files.

  • How the conflicts were resolved is in the message of the merge commit. In short:
    • main deleted worker_ends_at_bail, from_descriptors, read_image and the to_json_source path of Blob, so this PR's changes to them are gone too.
    • find_assume_standalone_path(&mut self) stays removed. main gave it a fallback for an asset that is named at the root, and gave lookup_file the same one, which is what find calls in this PR.
    • from_descriptor_at and load_program_file are new on main. They return &'static references, like their neighbours in this PR.
    • Outside those five files, the lines that this PR adds and removes are the same as before the merge.
  • The counts: against that main the PR removed 420 unsafe blocks, two fewer than before. worker_ends_at_bail and ToJsonSourceWithBytesFn had lost one each.
  • Checked on the merge commit:
    • cargo fmt --check, clippy (0 warnings), the source lints, and cargo check --release for Linux, Windows, macOS and FreeBSD.
    • The trimmable release link on Linux x64: no feature fails its check.
    • A debug build of the merge and one of main print the same for json() and the other readers of 28 blobs, files, requests and responses, for an executable with an asset, a Worker and a source map, for --compile --aot (also started with --aot-program-file), and for bun test with --parallel, --bail, --aot and --coverage.
  • Build 138414 of 0ca2d30 passed: all 188 jobs, with no failing file.
    • The four macOS x64 test jobs ran on their third attempt. The first two expired, at 23:05Z on 7 Nov and at 01:05Z on 8 Nov, before a machine had taken them, and GitHub showed the build as failed in between. The same jobs expired in 24 other builds of that evening (138380 to 138416), all of other branches.
    • All 14 build-bun jobs pass, so the release links on every platform.
    • main's own build of 2596ac5 (138398) failed in one file, test/aot/parallel/gc/local-set-to-null-lets-go-in-a-slow-version.ts, which passes here.
    • 7 files passed on a retry, or alone after they failed in the parallel batch. I looked each up in 239 other builds (138200 to 138439), all of main or of other people's branches. Each is there with the same test: mock-module-runs-3.test.ts in 6, process.test.js in 10, heavy-test-files-run-apart.test.ts in 18, jsonl-parse-chunk-utf8.test.ts in 22, fetch-leak.test.ts in 26 (138398 among them), filesink.test.ts in 47 and bun-serve-html.test.ts in 71.
    • Binary size: each of the 12 release binaries is within 16.1 KB of main's in 138398.

Before the merge: build 137656 of 9614e6f. All 188 jobs ran, and nothing failed or needed a retry only there.

  • 38 files failed, the 38 that failed on main at b1007f1 (build 137645): all under test/aot/ but for test/bundler/compile-aot-size.test.ts.
  • 37 files passed on a retry, or alone after they failed in the parallel batch, 30 of them under test/aot/. I looked each up in 215 other builds (137440 to 137655, 137329 and 137212), and counted only builds of main and of other people's branches. Each file failed or was retried in at least 3 of them. The rarest were websocket-server.test.ts ("drain", 3 builds) and compile.test.ts ("writes what bun build --compile --aot writes", 4 builds), with the same test and the same timeout there.
  • Binary size: each of the 12 release binaries was within 16.2 KB of main's.

Before that: the release link failed on d77d905, and that was this PR's. In build 137652 the step "link bun-profile (trimmable)" failed on seven platforms: too little could be removed with Shell. Change 16 of part 5 had given the ShellAsyncCpTask arm of run_task, an entry point of that feature, the same body as a closure in on_subtask_done. The linker folded the two, and the trimmable link keeps a folded entry point and all that it reaches. 9614e6f reverts the change.

On the two follow-ups in CodeRabbit's review. Both describe what the code did before this PR, and neither is changed here.

  • Group::any_of of no ranges gives a group that matches every stable version (SemverQuery.rs). The function moved here from the lint plugin n/semver.rs with the behaviour it had: it starts from Group::default() and adds each range. Its one caller always passes at least one range.
  • Tail::or_range overwrites a first alternative that has no comparator. So did Group::or_range, on the same condition: nothing appended yet, and no left comparator in the first slot.

I re-reviewed after d77d905 and found no bugs; the ordering comments on RUNNER, WORKER_CMDS, SCOPED_FILE_WRITER and TEMPDIR_HANDLE address my earlier nit. Because this is 37 changes across 60 files that rewrite unsafe code in bun_sys, bun_core, the io loop and the standalone graph, a human look is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

  • AtomicCell<T> as AtomicU8 + PhantomData<T>: the const size assert plus NoUninit + Send bound covers the old Atom contract; transmute_copy only sees bytes written from a valid T.
  • Standalone graph: File::module_info as &'static [u8] is only read (jsc_hooks.rs parse path, address_span), and LazySourceMap::load keeps the old None-on-invalid-blob result via the OnceLock.
  • Futex, getdents64 and empty_masks_ptr: the safe wrappers pass their own command/length and wrapping_add(1) stays inside the 2-element static.
Extended reasoning...

The PR removes 96 unsafe blocks, 24 unsafe fns and 22 unsafe impls across bun_sys, bun_core, the io loop, the crash handler, the standalone module graph and several leaf crates, mostly by converting raw-pointer FFI and cell code into typed references, safe fn imports and std atomics; it touches no injection, auth or data-exposure surface, but it is squarely memory-safety code. The bug hunt ran dry with no findings, and the only prior inline nit (undocumented Relaxed orderings) was addressed by the latest commit. The size (60 files, 37 logical changes) and the unsafe/FFI nature of the edits, plus an incomplete conversation history, are what keep this at defer rather than approve.

…er's global"

This reverts commit 23b298a, which broke the release link.

With it, the `ShellAsyncCpTask` arm of `run_task` and the closure that
`on_subtask_done` posts to a mini loop have the same body: take the box and
call `finish_shell`. The linker folds the two functions into one. The arm's
function is an entry point of the removable feature `Shell`, and the trimmable
link keeps an entry point that is folded with other code. With it stays all
that `finish_shell` reaches, which is the shell's interpreter. Only 0.09 MB
could be removed with `Shell`, where src/trim/features/bun.def asks for
0.20 MB, so the link failed with `FeatureBelowMinimum`.

Before that commit the two differed: the arm returned the `JsResult` of
`run_from_js_thread`, and the closure dropped it.

One `unsafe` block comes back, and so does the entry of node_fs.rs in the
jsresult-swallow inventory.

Code review found no issues

No high-confidence issues detected in this change.

`main` has the rewritten ahead-of-time compiler now (#47942). Four files
conflicted:

- `runner.rs`: `main` deleted `worker_ends_at_bail`, so this branch's change
  to it goes too.
- `Blob.rs`: `main` removed `to_json_source`, `ToJsonSourceWithBytesFn` and
  the `JsonSource` action, so this branch's changes to them go too.
  `to_json_with_bytes` keeps its `&[u8]`, and throws the error that `main`
  now makes in place.
- `StandaloneModuleGraph.rs`: `find_assume_standalone_path(&mut self)` stays
  removed. `main` taught it to find an asset that is named at the root, and
  taught `lookup_file` the same, which is what `find` calls on this branch.
  `key_of_asset_named_at_root` answers `None` without a compiled program, so
  the two look up the same files.
- `compiled_program.rs`: `main` deleted `from_descriptors` and `read_image`
  and added `from_descriptor_at`. It returns `&'static StandaloneModuleGraph`,
  as `from_descriptor` does on this branch.

One function that is new on `main` is adapted: `load_program_file` in
`run_compiled.rs` returns `&'static Graph`, which is what `boot_standalone`
takes on this branch.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @src/bundler/linker.rs:
- Line 33: Serialize initialization of relative_paths_list_ptr so concurrent
runtime-import linking performs the allocation only once. Use the project’s
established one-time initialization mechanism around the list setup, ensuring
all workers reuse the initialized list and no losing initializer retains a
separate allocation.

Review comments at @src/install/PackageManager/runTasks.rs:
- Around line 1839-1841: The manager back-reference created with
ParentRef::from_ref_mut in the network-task enqueue path can become invalid
after a whole-manager mutable reborrow. Change the state captured by
NetworkTask::write_init so NetworkTask::notify can access completion state
through a stable, valid reference across those reborrows; preserve the existing
enqueue and completion behavior.

Review comments at @src/io/PipeReader.rs:
- Around line 1291-1293: Update start_with_pipe to ensure the uv::Pipe is
initialized before transferring ownership to Source::Pipe; reject an
uninitialized pipe without dropping it through uv_close. If initialization
cannot be safely validated, make the pipe-taking methods unsafe and state the
caller’s initialization requirement.

Review comments at @src/jsc/bindgen.rs:
- Around line 56-59: Update JsHeap::bun_vm and the existing VM escape paths so
JavaScript execution remains tied to an active JsScope borrow rather than
exposing a 'static VirtualMachine. Ensure with_bytes cannot invoke a JavaScript
callback while its borrowed slice is in use, and preserve this guarantee across
every path that exposes the VM.

Review comments at @src/jsc/RuntimeTranspilerStore.rs:
- Around line 860-863: Update the watcher access around `iw.assume_mut()` and
`add_file` so synchronization is acquired before creating a mutable reference
and prevents the watcher thread and transpile jobs from holding mutable
references to the same allocation concurrently. Preserve file registration
behavior while ensuring the lock protects access to the `Watcher` itself, not
only its watchlist operations.

Review comments at @src/runtime/webcore/Request.rs:
- Around line 1042-1045: Update the `Request` constructor shortcut around
`clone_with_url` to calculate the cloned request’s retained URL and body memory
estimate before creating its JSC wrapper, and ensure that estimate is reported
to JSC. Preserve the existing URL selection and body cleanup behavior.

Review comments at @src/uws_sys/quic/Stream.rs:
- Around line 41-43: Update Stream::socket and the safe mutable-access path
through Socket::opaque_mut so streams sharing a connection cannot obtain
overlapping mutable access to the same extension slot. Enforce exclusivity at
the connection level; returning a raw socket pointer alone does not resolve the
aliasing risk while opaque_mut remains safely callable.

Review comments at @src/uws_sys/udp.rs:
- Around line 303-308: The safe UDP packet getters can pass invalid indices to
unchecked native helpers, risking undefined behavior. Update get_peer and the
related packet getters to enforce 0 ≤ index < packet_count by carrying the count
into a checked API, or make the getters and their FFI declarations unsafe with
documented index requirements; preserve the existing pointer-lifetime and
alignment guarantees.

`main` finds a file above the root directory of a compiled program now
(#48436). One file conflicted:

- `StandaloneModuleGraph.rs`: `find_assume_standalone_path(&mut self)` stays
  removed. `main` gave it a second fallback, `key_of_file_above_root`, and
  gave `lookup_file` the same one, which is what `find` calls on this branch.
  `key_of_file_above_root` answers `None` without a compiled program.

  The two are not written alike. The removed function looked up the first key
  that either fallback gave. `lookup_file` goes on to the second fallback
  where the first one's key is no file, which is so for the key of a folder.
  They part only for a name below the root that is not normalized:
  `key_of_asset_named_at_root` wants the root in front, and
  `key_of_file_above_root` answers `None` for a normalized name below it.
  `find` has one caller, `load_standalone_sourcemap`, which passes the source
  URL of a stack frame.

In every other file the lines that this branch adds and removes are the same
as before the merge, and nothing that is new on `main` had to be adapted.

- Around line 1364-1366: Update start_with_pipe and set_pipe to enforce the
empty-source invariant in release builds: have start_with_pipe close the current
source through the existing cleanup path and propagate any error before
installing the pipe, and make set_pipe use a hard assertion before replacing the
source.

Review comments at @src/parsers/json_stage2.rs:
- Line 100: Replace the bare Box::leak used for the empty JsonTape with
bun_core::heap::release while retaining root_ptr() to preserve mutable
provenance; update the safety comment in take_tape to describe the heap::release
ownership.

Review comments at @src/runtime/bake/dev_server/error_report_request.rs:
- Line 69: Update the request’s dev back-reference to preserve the mutable
borrow provenance: change its field type to BackRef<DevServer, bun_ptr::Mut> and
initialize it with BackRef::new_mut(dev), matching the pattern in
UnrefSourceMapRequest::run.

Review comments at @src/runtime/bake/router/pattern.rs:
- Around line 401-407: The `Part<'static>` return type does not enforce the
router-bound lifetime described by the safety comment. Keep the current unsafe
API and documented rule; do not expand this change into a lifetime-bound type
redesign, which the comment presents only as a future consideration.

`compile-aot-size.test.ts` fails on this branch. On Linux x64 a hello world
built with `--compile --aot` maps 68,442,296 bytes: 12,144 more than on `main`,
and 2,296 over the test's bound.

The cause is 565a53a. `OpaqueHandle::as_handle` panicked in place, with its
own message in each arm of a dispatcher. `opaque_deref_mut` calls the shared
cold `null_handle()`, which makes every `AnyResponse` method 15 bytes shorter.
Where the link optimizes across Rust and C++, as in CI on Linux x64, that is
enough for LLVM to inline the smallest of them. 14 methods lose 283 call sites
between them: `should_close_connection` goes from 182 to 80 and `has_responded`
from 89 to 33. Each copy is a four-way `match` with a jump table of its own.

`as_handle` comes back as a private safe fn: the `assert!` that `main` has, then
`opaque_deref_mut`, whose own null test folds. The message names `AnyResponse`,
because the trait that it named is gone. The trait, its `unsafe` block and its
three `unsafe impl`s stay deleted. `grow_request_window`, which called
`opaque_deref_mut` on `main`, and the four calls in `dev_server/http.rs` stay as
they are.

Trimmable release builds with `--lto=on` on Linux x64, in bytes against `main`.
They link the system's ICU, so they are smaller than CI's:

                                before    with this commit
    hello world, --aot         +16,440              -4,040
    hello world, --aot --trim      +56              -4,040
    .text                         -448             -14,784
    .rodata                     +8,256                 +64
    jump-table entries            +938                  +8

With it, 2 of the methods have fewer call sites than on `main`, 3 between them.
`Graph::pool_mut` was a safe fn whose `unsafe` block rested on what its one
caller does first: `deinit_without_freeing_arena` waits for the source map tasks
and the IO tasks before it takes the pool. The `get_mut()` and its `SAFETY`
comment move into that function, and `pool_mut` goes.

The compiled code is the same.
`Parser::new` wrote `Box::leak` for a box that `take_tape` takes back, from the
caller or from `Drop`. `heap::release` is the name for that: its doc comment
keeps a bare `Box::leak` for what is never freed.

The compiled code is the same.
From a review of 6a53a5a, 2b0d810 and 607944e:

- `as_handle`: the doc comment names what the inlining costs. Without that, the
  `assert!` in front of a fn that tests for null itself looks redundant.
- `any_dispatch!`: its comment names `as_handle`, which is what the macro calls,
  and counts the four arms that the macro has. It said three.
- `deinit_without_freeing_arena`: the `SAFETY` comment also says what keeps the
  parse tasks away from the pool. `Graph::pool`, which it points to, names this
  function where it named a `deinit` that does not exist.
- `take_tape` takes the box back with `heap::take`, like the other users of
  `heap::release`. Both calls are written `bun_core::heap::..`, like the other
  566 lines that name the module. The `use` was the only one in the tree.

The compiled code is the same.
