Fixes #48005

Problem

• The first read of process.stdout costs 23.5M user instructions over an empty process. Every CLI that reads process.stdout.isTTY pays it.
• internal/fs/streams took Writable from the node:stream barrel. It also loaded node:fs and Readable.

Fix

• internal/fs/streams, node:zlib and node:http2 load the one class they need, not the barrel. A lint checks it. node:http keeps the barrel.
• Each still extends a class that a program stored on node:stream before it loaded, read as an own property of the Stream function.
• fs.ReadStream goes below Readable at its first use. A FileSink stream never loads node:fs. The Readable operators come with the class (node:stream: define the Readable operators with the class and load them on first use #37395).
• Verified: process-stdio.test.ts, node-stream.test.js, fs.test.ts, 883 aot programs. Self-review: the third round is open (Notes).

Background

• node:stream is a barrel: it requires every stream module and sets them on the legacy Stream function, its exports object, which every stream class loads.
• readMembersThatMakingStandardErrorReads (BunProcess.cpp): what the modules behind process.stderr read, replayed by compiled programs.
• Considered a lazy barrel (Readable and node:fs stay on the path) and plain internal/streams/* requires (a stored class is then ignored).

Downsides

• First process.stdout read: 26.68M to 17.28M instructions. require("node:net") +0.44M, require("node:fs") +0.05M. Built-in JS +1771 bytes.
• Freezing the class chain of process.stdout, an fs stream, zlib.Gzip or an http2 class before node:stream loads makes every later require("node:stream") throw. Main does so for net.Socket, crypto.Hash and tls.TLSSocket.
• A replaced fs.WriteStream is no longer the class of process.stdout. A FileHandle stream no longer calls an fs.read or fs.write replaced before the stream classes load. Both as in Node.js.

Notes

Measurements (user instructions, release canary builds of main 2596ac5 and of this branch, interleaved runs, the median. Quartiles lie within 0.05M unless said): empty 3.16M both. process.stdout; pipe 26.68M to 17.28M (31 runs. Both builds have two modes 0.2M apart), file 26.71M to 17.31M, TTY 27.42M to 18.11M. process.stderr; 26.72M to 17.28M. process.stdin; 29.94M to 27.11M. process.stdout.write("x\n") 26.94M to 17.53M. require("node:stream") 20.24M to 19.57M, node:zlib 25.19M to 22.96M, node:http 36.33M to 35.59M, node:http2 58.52M to 56.13M, node:net 22.93M to 23.38M, node:fs 10.25M to 10.29M, the first read of fs.WriteStream 25.09M to 19.65M and of fs.ReadStream 25.07M to 22.19M. Per write on fs.createWriteStream(path), each write behind the callback of the one before: 16.17K to 16.16K (20,000 writes, 11 runs, noise 0.1K. Measured one commit earlier, and the write path has not changed since). Live heap objects added by the first stdout read 5403 to 3244 (bun:jsc heapStats behind a full collection). Built-in JS text (.bun_builtins) 2800321 to 2802092 bytes, size total +1515, file size equal. Wall clock, 201 interleaved runs on a machine that was not idle, one commit earlier: 20.4 ms to 16.1 ms (quartiles 18.0 to 27.3 and 14.4 to 24.0). Before the merge of main, on an idle machine: 6.71 ms to 4.79 ms (noise 0.5 ms). The counter is a small perf_event_open program. perf, valgrind, strace and bloaty are not in the container, so syscalls were not counted.

Repro. echo 'process.stdout;' > s.mjs; bun s.mjs | cat under the counter. Released 1.4.3: empty 3.1M, process.stdout; 47.5M, require("node:stream") 31.1M. The --cpu-prof in the issue puts 52% of the read under internal:stream.

What a stdout read loads now. node:events, internal/streams/{legacy, destroy, end-of-stream, add-abort-signal, state, utils, writable}, internal/{errors, primordials, validators, shared, process/next_tick_queue}, internal/fs/{file_handles, streams}. Of the 14.1M left over an empty process, node:events is about 4M and the Writable chain most of the rest.

What a program stores on node:stream. On main a built-in module takes Readable, Writable, Duplex, Transform, finished or Stream from the exports of node:stream when the module loads. A class that a program stored there before is the base class of the built-in's class. The merge commit 839ca6e took the classes from internal/streams/* in internal/fs/streams, node:zlib and node:http2, so such a class was ignored. Now the three read the member as an own property of the legacy Stream function ($getByIdDirect(Stream, "Writable") ?? require("internal/streams/writable")). The exports object of node:stream is that function, and the barrel is what sets the members. While the barrel has not loaded, the property does not exist and the module loads its one class alone. The read happens where main's read happened: at the load of the module, or at the call for the operator wrapper and the sink of http2's respondWithFile. node:http loads the barrel and reads it as on main.

One process per row, function under(B) returns a class below B that sets this.mine:

row	Node 26.3.0, 1.4.2, main 2596ac5	839ca6e	now
stream.Transform replaced, then zlib.createGzip(): z.mine, z instanceof stream.Transform	true true	undefined false	true true
stream.Readable replaced, then fs.createReadStream()	true true	undefined false	true true
stream.Writable replaced, then fs.createWriteStream()	true true	undefined false	true true
stream.Readable replaced, then the class above http2.Http2ServerRequest	true	false	true
stream.Writable replaced, then process.stdout on a file	true true	undefined false	true true
control: replaced after node:zlib has loaded	undefined false	undefined false	undefined false
control: a member put on Transform.prototype	true true	true true	true true

The column "now" is the same under bun build --compile and bun build --compile --aot. The column for 839ca6e is from the report on this PR, not from a build here. A second probe of 16 rows gives the same answers on 1.4.2, on main and on this branch. It adds finished behind close(callback) of an fs stream and of a zlib stream, an http2 client stream, http.OutgoingMessage, the socket of a ServerResponse, child.stdin, process.stdin, process.stdout on a pipe and readable.map(). In four of those rows the answer is not Node's, on main and here: http.OutgoingMessage, the socket of a ServerResponse, child.stdin and process.stdout on a pipe use the stored class, and Node does not.

A stub on node:stream. A test may store a stub under stream.Readable for a while (() => {} or {}), call fs.createWriteStream(), put the class back and call fs.createReadStream(). On Node, 1.4.2 and main the first call throws a TypeError, because the fs streams cannot stand below the stub, and the second call gives a stream, because a built-in module that threw while it loaded loads again. One commit earlier (bb8c9d2) the load kept the stub: the first call gave a stream and every later fs.createReadStream() threw. Now internal/fs/streams puts ReadStream below what lies under Readable at its load wherever node:stream is loaded, as main does, and the two rows are as on main, also in compiled executables. Where node:stream is not loaded, ReadStream goes below the library's own Readable at its first use (new, instanceof or a read of prototype), whatever a program stores under stream.Readable behind that load. That is main's answer: there the read of process.stdout loaded all of node:stream and fixed the class. Node loads its fs streams at their first use and takes stream.Readable then. 7671b94 had taken Node's answer for this case, and c12e24d took it back. With a stub under stream.Readable at the first read of process.stdin, behind a read of process.stdout, the throw landed in the native getter of process.stdin, which reports it as uncaught and keeps undefined. Main, 1.4.2 and this head give a stream there. Node's answer needs that getter changed first.

Nothing under stream.Readable. With node:stream loaded, a null or an undefined under stream.Readable, or a deleted member, counts as nothing stored: the fs streams stand below the library's own Readable, and fs.createReadStream() gives a stream before and after the class is put back. Node throws and then gives a stream. 1.4.2 and main throw at every fs.createReadStream() from then on. At df4d1a7 a null gave an object with no on(), corrected in e6509bf.

A frozen class chain. The barrel sets its members on the Stream function. A program that reaches that function through a class (Object.getPrototypeOf from fs.WriteStream up, or what a hardening helper walks from process.stdout) and freezes it before node:stream has loaded makes every later require("node:stream") throw a TypeError. One process per row, the chain of the class is frozen, then typeof require("node:stream").Readable:

the class	Node 26.3.0	1.4.2, main 2596ac5	this branch
net.Socket, crypto.Hash, tls.TLSSocket	function	TypeError	TypeError
fs.ReadStream, fs.WriteStream, the classes of process.stdin, process.stdout and process.stderr, tty.ReadStream, the class of child.stdout, zlib.Gzip, http2.Http2ServerRequest	function	function	TypeError
http.ServerResponse, http.IncomingMessage, https.Agent, readline.Interface, dgram.Socket, tty.WriteStream, worker_threads.Worker	function	function	function
control: node:stream is loaded before the freeze	function	function	function

The rows of the second line are new with this PR, because those classes no longer load the barrel. For the same reason a static that such a class inherits from Stream is undefined until node:stream loads (fs.ReadStream.pipeline, zlib.Gzip.finished), where main and Node give a function. On main net.Socket.pipeline is undefined in the same way. bb8c9d2 had taken node:http off the barrel as well, which moved the node:http rows to TypeError, and af38b05 took that back. One design removes all of these rows and was not built here: internal/streams/legacy defines each member of node:stream on Stream as an accessor that loads node:stream at its first read and then becomes a data property, as node:fs does for ReadStream on its exports. It is a change of its own, for main too, and it has to hold under --compile --aot.

A stream over a FileHandle. Calls of a replaced fs.read, fs.write or fs.writev, ten rows, one process each. Node 26.3.0 and this branch: 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0. 1.4.2 and main 2596ac5: 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 2, 0, 1, 1, 0. Rows 03 and 06 replace the function before the stream classes load. Rows 02, 08 and 09 are streams over a path, which call the exports. A program that wraps both fs.write and FileHandle.prototype.write before the stream classes load sees one call on 1.4.2 (its fs.write), one in Node (its handle method) and none here: the stream compares the handle's methods with FileHandle.prototype as it was when internal/fs/streams loaded, which is the same on main.

kFs. Every read of this[kFs] in streams.ts sits behind a branch a FileSink-backed stream never takes (streamConstruct with a numeric fd, close() and _destroy behind the sink, writeAll and writevAll behind the sink branch of _write and _writev). A stream without a sink (fs.createWriteStream(path), a stdio fd that Bun.file(fd).writer() refuses) gets kFs = require("node:fs") at construction, as before. A stream over a FileHandle takes read, write, writev and fsync as node:fs writes them (the originals registry of internal/shared), not what its exports hold at the time.

process.nextTick and the load of node:fs. node:fs keeps process.nextTick as it is when node:fs loads, for the callbacks of fs.rm, fs.cp and fs.glob. A first read of process.stdout no longer loads node:fs. A program that reads process.stdout, then replaces process.nextTick (fake timers), then loads node:fs for the first time gets those callbacks through its replacement.

bun -e. A CommonJS text given to bun -e loads the built-in module that a top-level binding names (const stream = ... loads node:stream, const fs = ... loads node:fs), on main too. The tests name their bindings standard and nodeFs.

AOT. The new readMembersThatMakingStandardErrorReads list: Object freeze, create, defineProperty, getPrototypeOf, defineProperties, assign, setPrototypeOf, is, Reflect ownKeys, getPrototypeOf, getOwnPropertyDescriptor, defineProperty, Symbol for, Promise.prototype finally. Object.keys, Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor and Number.isNaN are no longer read. The aot test of what a first read calls replaces Object.getPrototypeOf now (node:events reads it at load). process.stdout, process.stderr, console._stdout and console._stderr no longer list node:fs among the modules the host loads (runtime-dependencies.builtins.ts). The light streams of a compiled program no longer load the rest of node:stream (internal/streams/load_all): a Readable has its operators with the class.

With a release canary build of this head (c12e24d) and the compiler of #47942: test/aot/run-parallel.ts --no-erased passes 883 of 883 programs (the 442 that name a stream module, http, zlib, net, tty, readline, child_process, a standard stream or an fs stream, and the 441 others with a STATISTIC or COUNT bound). In earlier runs three programs of what-a-program-puts-in-place-is-honored that wait on timers failed while ten builds ran beside them and passed alone. One of them also fails alone on main now and then. The three programs of what-node-http-takes-off-node-stream pass as written and with erased types. At df4d1a7, 78 of 79 test files under test/aot that name a stream module, a standard stream or http passed, and the one that failed needs the engine's sources, which this container does not have (the same on main). Image functions, main to this head: standard-output-brings-no-file-handles 522 to 521, method-called-behind-a-star-of-fs 2141 to 2122, stream-operators-come-with-the-readable-class 3780 to 3782, what-is-laid-on-node-stream-behind-the-load-of-http-is-heard-by-neither 3643 to 3644. test/aot/servers/a-test-run-compiles-what-an-executable-compiles.test.ts gives express 64% and 60%, the same as main. Under --compile --aot a stub under stream.Readable at the first read of process.stdin leaves process.stdin undefined on main and here alike: the compiled program makes no whole process.stdout, so that read is the first load of the fs streams.

Other behaviour. process.stdin still comes from node:fs, so a replaced fs.ReadStream stays its class, as in Node for a file. Open PRs #47989 (one line in the operator wrapper) and #46484 (the streams.ts fast path) touch the same lines.

Suites run. Debug build of c12e24d: node-stream.test.js (160 pass), process-stdio.test.ts (29 pass), the four FileHandle rows of fs.test.ts, the barrel lint, the second-text pins. The first run behind a fresh debug build hits the 5 s limit in some rows, the second passes. Release build of c12e24d: node-stream.test.js and process-stdio.test.ts (189 pass). Release builds of main and of df4d1a7 side by side: 222 test files (node stream, fs, process, zlib, tty, http, http2, net, child_process, readline, events, worker_threads, web streams, spawn stdio) and 1887 vendored Node tests (test-stream*, test-fs-*stream*, test-filehandle-*, test-zlib*, test-http*, test-http2*, test-net-*, test-tty*, test-child-process*, and more). The failures were the same on both builds, except the new tests of this PR, which fail on main. The block of node-stream.test.js for what a program stores has sixteen rows: fs with the standard streams, zlib, http and http2 with the classes stored before the module loads and after it, the two stubs, a class stored behind a read of process.stdout, process.stdin under a stub, the three rows with nothing under stream.Readable, and node:stream behind a frozen chain of node:http. Thirteen pass on 1.4.2 and on main. The three rows with nothing under stream.Readable throw there and give a stream here.

Pre-existing in this container, not from this diff (same on main's sources, debug build): the Proxy-trap expected-output tests in test/js/node/stream and test/js/node/http (an extra constructor read in emit), the aot tests that time out in a debug build, the-first-read-of-a-standard-stream-finds-no-descriptor-left (a debug build loads modules from disk), run-time-code-lists-methods-of-standard-streams.js (the light stdin has no own _destroy since 73a2043).

Self-review. Two rounds: 21 concerns raised and 16 addressed for the first nine commits, 13 and 12 for the FileHandle commit.

Addressed:

• The numbers are against main, not 1.4.3.
• process.stdin keeps the class of node:fs.
• The lint matches top-level requires only.
• The tests observe the node:fs and Readable loads (a module that loads calls Object.defineProperty, a loaded one calls nothing under require), the fs.ReadStream statics before the first instance, the replaced-class behaviour, and stderr on a file.
• Three stale comments. node:stream: start toArray, forEach, reduce, some, every and find inside the call #47989 and node:stream: route process.stdout, process.stderr, tty.WriteStream and child.stdin writes through Writable #46484 are named.
• The originals.fs slot is declared in the registry's literal, with a test row. A control row covers streams over a raw descriptor.

Rejected:

• Landing as three sequenced PRs. The operators change is a prerequisite of this one, and node:stream: define the Readable operators with the class and load them on first use #37395 has waited three months.
• A registry probe so that a replaced fs.WriteStream stays the class of process.stdout. Node does not do it, and the probe costs a codegen macro.
• Cutting internal/primordials out of internal/errors (another 2M, a separate change).
• A fix of the handle-method order in this PR. It changes one writev into one handle.write per chunk and needs the writev arm of node:fs: do the I/O of a FileHandle stream through the handle #47445.

Self-review of the commits after the merge (open). It raised 36 points. These change what comes next:

• AOT: the next base #48120 has the same base. It changes 12 of the 13 source files of this PR and adds second texts with SHA-256 pins for internal/fs/streams, node:zlib, node:http2, internal/streams/readable and node:fs. The PR that lands second has to bring this change to those texts again.
• internal/fs/streams, node:zlib and node:http2 read the members of Stream by hand. A lazy node:stream answers in one place: each member is an accessor on Stream that loads its module at the first read, as node builtins: defer cross-module requires and load-time work #35541 drafts it. That shape also removes the frozen-chain rows. It is not built here.
• 7671b94 read stream.Readable at the first use of fs.ReadStream. With a stub there at the first read of process.stdin, behind a read of process.stdout, process.stdin stayed undefined. Main, 1.4.2 and df4d1a7 give a stream. c12e24d takes that read back. Node's answer for a class stored behind a read of process.stdout needs the process.stdin getter in BunProcess.cpp changed first: it reports a throw as uncaught and stores undefined, on main too when the stub lies there with no read of process.stdout before it.
• stream.Readable = null before the fs streams load gave an object with no on() from fs.createReadStream(). Fixed in e6509bf.
• Build 138914 passed on e9d84ab (188 jobs). It is the first build of this branch that finished since 5208745: each push before it cancelled the running build before the macOS x64 shards started. c12e24d is the next head to build.

Walkthrough

This change defers stream operator and filesystem setup, adjusts how built-in modules obtain stream classes, and changes standard-stream module loading. Regression tests cover operator behavior, stream construction, and module-loading boundaries.

Changes

Stream loading and operators

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Readable operator installation and behavior src/js/internal/stream.ts, src/js/internal/streams/readable.ts, src/js/internal/streams/operators.ts, test/js/node/stream/*, test/aot/*	Readable operators are installed on Readable.prototype and load their implementations on first call. Tests cover results, descriptors, errors, and availability without first loading node:stream.
Deferred filesystem stream setup src/js/internal/shared.ts, src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts, src/js/node/fs.ts, src/js/builtins/ProcessObjectInternals.ts, src/js/builtins/stdio.ts, src/js/internal/streams/load_all.ts, src/codegen/builtins/host/runtime-dependencies.builtins.ts, src/jsc/bindings/BunProcess.cpp, test/js/node/fs/*, test/js/node/process/process-stdio.test.ts, test/aot/the-first-read-of-a-standard-stream-calls-what-a-test-has-replaced.test.ts	Filesystem streams defer stream and filesystem setup. FileHandle-backed streams use original filesystem methods when handle methods are unmodified. Standard-output module mappings exclude node:fs; tests cover stream construction and module loads.
Built-in stream imports and loading checks src/js/node/http2.ts, src/js/node/zlib.ts, test/internal/source-lints/stream-barrel-in-builtins.test.ts, test/js/node/stream/node-stream.test.js	HTTP/2 and zlib obtain stream classes from internal modules or the legacy stream module. Tests check class selection and module-loading boundaries.

Possibly related issues

• oven-sh/bun#47408: The linked objective concerns process.stdout._handle and setBlocking(true). This change adjusts stream loading but does not add _handle.

• oven-sh/bun#37395: It changes the same Readable operator installation and implementation behavior, while this PR also changes filesystem streams and built-in stream imports.

Suggested reviewers: jarred-sumner, dylan-conway, alii

Merge Risk: Low · up to c12e2

The change has a narrow Windows handle-cleanup regression when the internal fast-path option is explicitly enabled. Normal descriptor callers are unaffected. Disable that combination before landing if feasible; the remaining lint coverage limitation is suitable for follow-up.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "process.stdout: load the Writable class, not the node:stream barrel" matches the main change. The PR stops internal/fs/streams, node:zlib, and node:http2 from loading the node:stream barrel and loads only the stream class each needs (Writable, for stdout). The title names the primary change and is specific. It does not cover the Readable operator lazy-install work, the originals registry, or the FileHandle method changes. That is expected for a short title.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

[#48005] Requirement: the first read of process.stdout or process.stderr must not load the full node:stream barrel. It must load only the Writable class and finished. Expected cost: about Node's cost or less.

Code at head c12e24d: src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts has no top-level require of node:stream or node:fs. Its import block takes Stream from internal/streams/legacy. It takes Writable from the stored Stream member when present, else from internal/streams/writable. It takes finished the same way, else from internal/streams/end-of-stream. Readable is read only from a stored member, or loaded at first ReadStream use. The stdout path builds a WriteStream that writes through a FileSink. The PR description and the kFs branches in streams.ts show that this path does not load node:fs.

Regression guard: test/internal/source-lints/stream-barrel-in-builtins.test.ts (per the change summary) rejects top-level node:stream or internal/stream requires under src/js outside a fixed list.

Tests: process-stdio.test.ts and node-stream.test.js (per the change summary) cover load order, the no-barrel check for stdout and stderr, and class relationships.

Measurement (author-reported, not re-run here): the first process.stdout read falls from 26.68M to 17.28M user instructions. The empty process is 3.16M, so the read costs about 14.1M above empty. The issue cites about 15M above empty for Node 24. Wall clock on an idle machine: 6.71 ms to 4.79 ms (author-reported).

Changes since the previous review (bb8c9d2, df4d1a7, 97a4492, cf71189, 7671b94, 33a2688, e6509bf, c12e24d) change fs.ReadStream class setup and the behavior of stubs under stream.Readable. They do not change the WriteStream path that process.stdout uses.

Limits: CI for this head has not completed. Platform-specific tests were not run here. The import block was read directly. The rest of streams.ts was not read in full.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes fall into groups. Each group serves the load-cost goal of #48005 or keeps existing behavior working after the new load order:

• Stream loading in internal/fs/streams.ts, node:zlib, node:http2, and node:http internals moves from the barrel to internal stream modules. Stored members on the legacy Stream function are still honored.
• Readable operators move onto the Readable class (readable.ts, operators.ts, stream.ts). The barrel no longer installs them on the stdout path. The PR description ties this to #37395. The issue's suggested direction also defers operators.
• stdio.ts, ProcessObjectInternals.ts, runtime-dependencies.builtins.ts, and the createOnWarning change remove node:fs and load_all from the standard-stream path.
• BunProcess.cpp read list and the AOT tests that stub Object.keys or Object.getPrototypeOf follow from the changed module-load reads.
• The originals.fs registry in internal/shared.ts keeps FileHandle streams on the node:fs functions. The PR description states that the old behavior, where replaced fs methods were called, differs from Node. Node does not call them.
• Fixes for stubs under stream.Readable and null under stream.Readable (7671b94, df4d1a7, e6509bf, c12e24d) keep fs stream creation working when a program stores a value under node:stream. They follow from reading the stored class at a new load time.
• Tests and fixtures check these changes, including the source lint, the stream-operator and process-stdio tests, and the FileHandle fixture.

The PR description discloses the compatibility differences. These include a replaced fs.WriteStream no longer being the class of process.stdout, and frozen class chains that make a later require of node:stream throw. Both follow from the load order that the fix needs.

Documentation inconsistency (not a scope issue): the PR description says the null-under-Readable fix e6509bf is not yet in this branch. The commit history at head lists e6509bf as a commit on this branch. The description is stale on this point.

Limits: the incremental diffs from earlier reviewed heads were not read line by line. The assessment relies on the whole-PR change summary and the commit subjects.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the repository template. It has both required sections, "What does this PR do?" and "How did you verify your code works?". The first section states the problem, the fix, the downsides, and the background. It also links the issue, #48005. The second section lists the suites run and the AOT results, and it notes that a self-review round is still open. Some detail is dense and sits in a collapsed Notes block, and the "How did you verify" section mixes author-run results with pre-existing container failures. Those points do not leave any required section missing or incomplete, so the check passes.

Pushed d874690 for one side effect of this branch.

Reproduced. At 5208745 a stream over a FileHandle calls an fs.read, fs.write or fs.writev that a program has put on node:fs:

const fs = require("fs");
fs.WriteStream;
let calls = 0;
const real = fs.write;
fs.write = function (...a) { calls++; return real.apply(this, a); };
fs.promises.open("y.txt", "w").then(h => h.createWriteStream().end("abc"));
process.on("exit", () => console.log(calls)); // Node 26.3.0 and 1.4.2: 0. 520874532d: 1. d874690418: 0

Ten rows of this kind, one process each:

	rows 01 to 10
Node 26.3.0	0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0
1.4.2	0,1,1,0,0,2,0,1,1,0
5208745	1,2,1,1,2,2,1,1,1,0
d874690	0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0

Change. node:fs puts the read, write, fsync and writev that it writes into the originals registry of internal/shared. fileHandleStreamFs takes them from there. The test is four rows in test/js/node/fs/fs.test.ts (4 of 4 fail at 5208745, 2 of 4 on 1.4.2). The fixture prints the same under Node 26.3.0.

Open.

• This branch conflicts with main since AOT: front end, test runs and tests for the rewritten compiler #47942 (test/expected-durations.json). It needs a merge of main. The --compile --aot numbers in the description are from the compiler before that change.
• The description now lists nine node:stream rows and one process.nextTick row that this branch moves away from Node.js. This commit does not change them.

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

Beyond the inline finding, I also checked that dropping this[kFs] for a $fastPath WriteStream cannot leave a read of it reachable: every kFs use in src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts (streamConstruct, close/closeAfterSync, the slow branches of _write/_writev) sits behind a check that the stream has no FileSink, and kWriteStreamFastPath is never cleared after construction, so the _write fallback in underscoreWriteFast is unreachable for such a stream. The hard-coded operator length table and the ReadStream.prototype setter losing statics were also looked at and judged pre-existing or nit-level. Tests were not run in this review (including the USE_SYSTEM_BUN=1 check).

Extended reasoning...

The change moves built-in modules off the node:stream barrel, lazily reparents fs.ReadStream under Readable, installs Readable operators as lazy wrappers, and routes FileHandle stream I/O through an originals.fs slot; it touches no auth, crypto or injection surface. One confirmed finding is posted inline, and this note records only the additional kFs-reachability check that was ruled out by reading.

[robobun]

Pushed two commits on top of the merge of main (839ca6e).

Reported. At 839ca6e a class that a program stores on node:stream before node:zlib, an fs stream or node:http2 first loads is no longer their base class. Node.js, 1.4.x and main use it.

function under(B) { function Mine(o) { B.call(this, o); this.mine = true; } Object.setPrototypeOf(Mine.prototype, B.prototype); Object.setPrototypeOf(Mine, B); return Mine; }
const stream = require("node:stream");
stream.Transform = under(stream.Transform);
const z = require("node:zlib").createGzip();
console.log(z.mine, z instanceof stream.Transform);
// Node 26.3.0, 1.4.2, main 2596ac5d39: true true. 839ca6ef35: undefined false. bb8c9d2647: true true

Change.

• ce4a474: internal/fs/streams, node:zlib and node:http2 read the class as an own property of the legacy Stream function when they load. That function is the exports object of node:stream, and the barrel sets the classes on it. Where the barrel has not loaded, the property does not exist and the module loads its one class alone. So the first read of process.stdout still loads no barrel.
• bb8c9d2: node:http reads Stream and Duplex the same way and no longer loads the barrel. Its three second texts make the same read and refuse a class of the program as before. This commit can be reverted alone if node:http must stay on the barrel. That state was not built here.

Checked with release canary builds of main 2596ac5 and of this branch:

• The rows of the report (zlib.createGzip(), fs.createReadStream(), fs.createWriteStream(), Http2ServerRequest, process.stdout on a file, the two controls) and 16 more rows give the answers of main. The same under bun build --compile and bun build --compile --aot.
• test/aot/run-parallel.ts --no-erased: 883 of 883 programs pass (442 that name a stream module, http, zlib, net, tty, a standard stream or an fs stream, and 441 others with a STATISTIC or COUNT bound). The three programs of what-node-http-takes-off-node-stream pass as written and with erased types.
• test/aot/servers/a-test-run-compiles-what-an-executable-compiles.test.ts failed in CI at 839ca6e (express reached 60% and 55%, the ratchet holds 62 and 58). Here express reaches 64% and 60%, the same as main.
• First read of process.stdout: 26.53M to 16.96M user instructions. require("node:http"): 36.15M to 33.76M.
• 222 test files and 1887 vendored Node tests give the same failures on both builds, except the new tests of this PR, which fail on main.

The release build has the sources of bb8c9d2 except the wording of comments in four files. The debug build is of bb8c9d2: node-stream.test.js, process-stdio.test.ts, the FileHandle rows of fs.test.ts, the barrel lint and the second-text pins pass.

The PR body has the tables and the other numbers.

Pushed two more commits (head df4d1a7). They correct two shapes that bb8c9d2 got wrong.

A stub on node:stream. A test stores a stub under stream.Readable for a while:

const stream = require("node:stream"), fs = require("node:fs");
const Readable = stream.Readable;
stream.Readable = {};                                   // or () => {}
try { fs.createWriteStream("/dev/null"); } catch (e) { console.log(e.name); }
stream.Readable = Readable;
console.log(fs.createReadStream(__filename) instanceof Readable);
// Node 26.3.0, 1.4.2, main, df4d1a7c24: TypeError, then true. bb8c9d2647: no throw, then a TypeError from every fs.createReadStream()

df4d1a7: where node:stream is loaded, internal/fs/streams puts ReadStream below what lies under Readable when the module loads, as main does. A stub fails that load, and the module loads again once the class is back. Where node:stream is not loaded, ReadStream still goes below Readable at its first use, so process.stdout loads no Readable.

A frozen class chain of node:http.

for (let p = require("http").ServerResponse; p !== Function.prototype; p = Object.getPrototypeOf(p)) Object.freeze(p);
console.log(typeof require("stream").Readable);
// Node 26.3.0, 1.4.2, main, 839ca6ef35, df4d1a7c24: function. bb8c9d2647: TypeError

af38b05 takes back bb8c9d2. node:http loads all of node:stream again, as on main, so the barrel has set its members before a program can freeze the Stream function.

Not changed. The same freeze from fs.ReadStream, fs.WriteStream, zlib.Gzip, an http2 class or the class of process.stdout still makes every later require("node:stream") throw. That is in this PR since before these commits, because those classes no longer load the barrel. Main and 1.4.2 throw the same way for net.Socket, crypto.Hash and tls.TLSSocket. The PR body names it under Downsides and has the table. The fix belongs on main as well, so it is not in this PR.

Checked with release canary builds of main 2596ac5 and of df4d1a7:

• The rows above, their four controls and the rows of the earlier report (zlib.createGzip(), fs.createReadStream(), fs.createWriteStream(), Http2ServerRequest, process.stdout on a file) give the answers of main. The same under bun build --compile and bun build --compile --aot.
• test/aot/run-parallel.ts --no-erased: 883 of 883 programs pass. test/aot/servers/a-test-run-compiles-what-an-executable-compiles.test.ts, red in CI at 839ca6e, gives express 64% and 60%, the same as main.
• First read of process.stdout: 26.68M to 17.28M user instructions.
• 222 test files and 1887 vendored Node tests give the same failures on both builds, except the new tests of this PR.
• Debug build of df4d1a7: node-stream.test.js (155 pass), process-stdio.test.ts, the FileHandle rows of fs.test.ts, the barrel lint and the second-text pins pass.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):

• 🟣 src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts — pre-existing (compat, low): a program that reads process.stdout, then stores its own class under stream.Readable, then calls fs.createReadStream() gets a stream that is not an instance of its class, where Node gives one that is. The lazy reparent at src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts:259 and the constructor at streams.ts:352 always take internal/streams/readable, because ReadableOfProgram was captured as undefined when the stdout read loaded this module. Fix: at first use, read what lies under Readable then, e.g. $getByIdDirect(Stream, "Readable") ?? require("internal/streams/readable") in both the getter and the constructor, so a class stored before the first fs.ReadStream is honoured as the PR's design says for the other classes.

  Why this was flagged

  A CLI reads process.stdout.isTTY at startup, which runs src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts and sets ReadableOfProgram (streams.ts:4) to undefined because node:stream is not loaded yet. The program then does require("node:stream").Readable = Mine (a subclass) and calls fs.createReadStream(path). The fs.ReadStream getter in src/js/node/fs.ts:1315 reads ReadStream.prototype, which runs the accessor at streams.ts:258-264; that accessor calls require("internal/streams/readable") and parents ReadStream under the built-in Readable, and the constructor at streams.ts:352 likewise calls the built-in class. The stream is therefore not instanceof Mine and Mine's constructor never runs. In Node, lib/internal/fs/streams.js loads only at the first fs stream call and takes stream.Readable at that moment, so the stored class is used. On the base branch the stdout read loaded node:stream and captured the built-in Readable eagerly, so the base ignored the stored class too; the PR's own table covers only the case where nothing read process.stdout first.

  Verification: pre-existing. Triggered when a program reads process.stdout, then assigns its own class to require("node:stream").Readable, then calls fs.createReadStream(). src/js/internal/fs/streams.ts:4 captures ReadableOfProgram at module load, which is undefined. The constructor at streams.ts:352 never re-reads what the program has since stored on Stream.Readable. On the base commit streams.ts:2 captured Readable at module load, so the base gives the same non-instance result.

[robobun]

On the finding about a class stored under stream.Readable after a read of process.stdout: taken in 7671b94. The first use of fs.ReadStream now takes what lies under stream.Readable at that time, as Node does when it loads its fs streams. The class is cached only once the chain is set, so a stub there throws at that use and the next use tries again. A new row in node-stream.test.js covers the stub, the stored class and a later instance. The nit on capturing Object.setPrototypeOf is not taken: this file calls the global at every other site, as do the other built-in modules.

[claude]

Code review completed

Nothing new to post: everything this review found is already covered by existing comments on this pull request or didn't merit a separate one.

[robobun]

One correction is ready. It is not pushed to this branch, so that build 138914 can finish.

Reported. With node:stream loaded and stream.Readable = null, fs.createReadStream() returns an object with no on(), also after the class is put back.

node:stream is loaded, then the line, then fs.createReadStream(), the class is put back, then another	Node 26.3.0	1.4.2, main	e9d84ab	with the fix
stream.Readable = null	throws, a stream	throws, throws	an object with no on(), twice	a stream, twice
stream.Readable = undefined	throws, a stream	throws, throws	a stream, twice	a stream, twice
delete stream.Readable	throws, a stream	throws, throws	a stream, twice	a stream, twice

The cause is my commit df4d1a7. A null is not undefined, so ReadStream got neither a base class nor the late parenting.

The fix is one commit on e9d84ab, on the branch robobun/f9336004/null-under-stream-readable (e6509bf). ReadableOfProgram becomes $getByIdDirect(Stream, "Readable") ?? undefined, so a null counts as nothing stored. Three rows in node-stream.test.js pin the table. On a debug build of that commit node-stream.test.js passes (159 tests). Please take the commit with the next push of this branch.

Why it is not pushed. The pipeline cancels the running build of a branch at the next push to it. Builds 138576, 138645, 138714, 138762, 138793, 138837, 138866 and 138867 of this branch all ended that way, and no build of this branch has finished since 5208745. Build 138914 (e9d84ab) has 184 of 189 jobs passed and waits for the four darwin any x64 test shards, which are queued. A push now starts that wait again.

Also found, from 7671b94 (run on a debug build of e9d84ab). A stub under stream.Readable at the first read of process.stdin, behind a read of process.stdout, loses process.stdin for the rest of the process:

void process.stdout;
const stream = require("node:stream");
const Was = stream.Readable;
stream.Readable = {};                                   // a test double
try { console.error(typeof process.stdin); } catch (e) { console.error(e.name); }
stream.Readable = Was;
console.error(typeof process.stdin);
// 1.4.2, main, df4d1a7c24: object, object. Node 26.3.0 with stdin on a file: TypeError, object.
// e9d84abdeb2: an uncaught "TypeError: Prototype value can only be an object or null" (internal:fs/streams), then undefined, undefined

The getter of ReadStream.prototype reads stream.Readable at the first use. When that use is the native getter of process.stdin, the throw is reported as uncaught and the property keeps undefined. With the library's own Readable in that branch, as at df4d1a7, the row is as on main.

Two points for a maintainer.

• AOT: the next base #48120 has the same base and changes most of the source files of this PR. It gives many of them a second text with a SHA-256 pin. The PR that lands second has to bring this change to those texts again. Which of the two lands first?
• internal/fs/streams, node:zlib and node:http2 each read the members of Stream by hand. A lazy node:stream can answer in one place: each member is defined on Stream as an accessor that loads its module at the first read, as node builtins: defer cross-module requires and load-time work #35541 drafts it with defineLazy and as node:fs does for ReadStream. That shape also removes the frozen-chain row under Downsides. It is a larger change than this PR and it is not built.

[robobun]

Build 138914 passed on e9d84ab (188 jobs). After it finished I pushed two commits in one push. The head is c12e24d.

• e6509bf: a null under stream.Readable counts as nothing stored. fs.createReadStream() gives a stream in that row, as it does for an undefined or a deleted member. Before, it gave an object with no on().
• c12e24d: takes back the getter half of 7671b94. Behind a read of process.stdout, fs.ReadStream stands below the library's own Readable again, whatever stream.Readable holds at its first use. That is the answer of main and 1.4.2.

Why the second commit: with the first-use read, this program lost process.stdin for the rest of the process. Main, 1.4.2 and df4d1a7 print object twice.

void process.stdout;
const stream = require("node:stream");
const Was = stream.Readable;
stream.Readable = {};                                   // a test double
try { console.error(typeof process.stdin); } catch (e) { console.error(e.name); }
stream.Readable = Was;
console.error(typeof process.stdin);
// e9d84abdeb2: an uncaught TypeError from internal:fs/streams, then undefined, undefined. c12e24d70e: object, object

Node's answer for a class stored behind a read of process.stdout (the class is used) can come back once the process.stdin getter in BunProcess.cpp no longer stores undefined after a throw. With that getter as it is, the first-use read turns a stub at the first read of process.stdin into a lost stdin where main keeps it. The row of 7671b94 in node-stream.test.js now pins main's answer, and a new row pins process.stdin under the stub.

Checked on c12e24d:

• Debug build: node-stream.test.js (160 pass), process-stdio.test.ts (29 pass), the FileHandle rows of fs.test.ts, the barrel lint and the second-text pins.
• Release canary build: test/aot/run-parallel.ts --no-erased passes 883 of 883 programs. a-test-run-compiles-what-an-executable-compiles.test.ts gives express 64% and 60%, as main.
• The rows of the earlier reports (a stored class, the stubs, the frozen chain of node:http) are unchanged. Under --compile --aot the program above prints undefined twice on main and here alike, because a compiled program makes no whole process.stdout.

The branch robobun/f9336004/null-under-stream-readable is deleted. Please do not push to this branch before its build finishes: a push cancels the build, and the macOS x64 shards wait about five hours for a machine.

- Around line 518-524: Update the fast-path selection for fs.createWriteStream
so the combination of $fastPath: true and windowsHandle uses normal descriptor
handling on Windows. Initialize kFs for that path so stream[kFs] is available
during close and flush handling.

Build 139107 on c12e24d finished: 187 of 188 jobs passed.

The one job that failed is windows 11 aarch64 - test-bun, in test/aot/parallel/gc/local-set-to-null-lets-go-in-a-slow-version.ts. Plain Bun printed a local: collected | KEPT there and the compiled executable printed collected | collected. The program asks what the collector keeps of a local variable. This diff does not touch it, and the failure is reported apart from this PR.

The tests of this PR (node-stream.test.js, process-stdio.test.ts, fs.test.ts, the aot programs and test files) passed on every lane, macOS x64 included.

No push is pending from my side. Open for a maintainer, as in the comment above: the order against #48120, and whether the reads of Stream members should become a lazy node:stream.
