resolver: build DirInfo without listing the directory - #48148
Startup time and memory grow with the number of entries in the cwd, in the entry script's directory, and in every ancestor. bun -e 0 takes 15 ms in an empty directory and 120 ms with 200k files in the cwd or in a parent (release build of main, Linux x64). Node is flat. macOS $TMPDIR and Windows %TEMP% often hold 100k+ entries, so test suites pay this on every spawn.
The cause is dir_info_cached_miss (src/resolver/resolver.rs). It opens every directory from / down to the target, reads the whole listing into the DirEntry cache, and then dir_info_uncached looks up five fixed names in it. run_env_loader then copied every name of the cwd listing into a Vec to find four .env* files.
Fix
The walk keeps the open fd and answers each marker question (node_modules, package.json, tsconfig.json, jsconfig.json, .bin) with one fstatat (RealFS::kind_at). The DirEntry cache gets an EntriesOption::Unlisted placeholder for a directory the walk opened but did not list. entries_at_locked and read_directory_with_iterator replace it with a listing the first time a reader needs the names, so extension probing, the routers, bun test and completions see a full listing as before. A package path under node_modules (not .bin, .bun, .pnpm) is still listed from the fd the walk holds, because the resolve that follows probes its entries.
The entry point is resolved with one stat of its normalized path (Resolver::resolve_entry_point, node's tryFile) instead of a listing of its directory. The .env loader opens the default names directly and treats ENOENT as absent. PackageManager.root_dir is the project path, probed by name. getCounters().readdir counts the listings a process read, so the tests run on every build.
Correct because every fixed-name lookup in dir_info_uncached was already followed by an open of that exact name, and because no reader of DirEntry.data can reach an Unlisted slot: the two accessors that hand out a listing upgrade it first, and get_entries_const is gone.
A DirInfo is the resolver's per-directory record: nearest package.json, tsconfig.json, whether node_modules exists, the real path. A DirEntry is a directory listing (lowercased name to Entry) that load_as_file probes for extensions. The walk came from esbuild, where one listing serves both. Here the listing is read only where a name is probed, as node's tryFile and readPackageScope do.
A cold walked directory costs 4 fstatat and 1 lstat instead of 1 or 2 getdents64, and a startup with no .env files pays 4 openat that fail with ENOENT. Release builds of the merge base and this branch, interleaved, 21 runs, median: bun -e 0 in an empty cwd 14.8 ms to 10.9 ms (noise floor 0.9 ms), bun run x 7.7 to 6.9 ms. Binary size unchanged (138,119,440 bytes both).
A script inside the large directory that imports a sibling still lists that directory once, in load_as_file: 136 ms to 126 ms with 200k entries. A stat-first load_as_file is a follow-up.
bun /dev/null and a FIFO entry now run, as in node. Main rejected them with "Module not found". bun test always visits the root in name order. Before, a root the walk had not listed was visited in readdir order. On macOS and Windows an entry path that matched only case-insensitively takes the on-disk spelling, one open and one fcntl more per process.
Notes
Release builds (bun run build:release) of the merge base 2596ac5 and this branch, Linux x64, interleaved A/B, median of 21 runs. strace, perf and hyperfine are not available in the build container, so listing counts come from getCounters().readdir.

Behaviour facts:
Case-insensitive marker match: the listing lookup was case-insensitive, but every match was followed by an open of the exact lowercase name. On a case-sensitive filesystem that open failed, on a case-insensitive one stat also matches. No delta.
init_with_runtime (auto-install) opened and listed the cwd as its "is the cwd readable" check. It now opens and closes it, which keeps test/js/bun/resolve/resolve.test.ts "auto-install init failure from an unreadable cwd" passing.
The has_stale_listing branch of the walk (a cached listing older than the resolver's generation, only reachable from a second Bun.build in one process) has no direct test.
The filesystem_router.test.ts case "reload() while Bun.build() resolves the same directory" takes 80 s on main's debug build in this container and 71 s on this branch. Its 60 s timeout is unrelated to the change.
cargo check passes for x86_64-pc-windows-msvc and aarch64-apple-darwin.
Compiled programs (test/aot/runner-suites/programs-1.test.ts): the css-loader case "a file that was deleted after it was resolved" relied on the startup listing. The executable holds the file, so its first on-disk listing happens after the unlink, and the second import reports the file as missing instead of failing to read it. The plain run still lists the directory on the first import and keeps the stale entry. The case is named in test/aot/runner-suites.programs.txt.
no test proof · iteration 4 · platform-specific test(s) that do not run on this machine, deferring to CI, which covers all platforms: test/js/bun/resolve/resolver-dir-listing.test.ts, test/cli/install/bun-pack.test.ts, test/cli/bun.test.ts

Walkthrough
The filesystem cache can retain open directories without listing entries and materialize listings when requested. Resolver startup, dotenv loading, and package-manager paths use targeted filesystem operations. Directory-listing consumers were updated, and the runtime exposes a readdir counter with tests for startup and resolution behavior.
Changes
Directory Resolution and Startup
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Unlisted directory state src/resolver/lib.rs, src/resolver/dir_info.rs, src/resolver/fs.rs
The filesystem cache adds an Unlisted state that retains a directory path and file descriptor. Locked accessors distinguish listed directories, and listing requests can materialize entries or record an error.
Resolver lookup and directory caching src/resolver/resolver.rs, src/jsc/VirtualMachine.rs
The resolver can resolve absolute entry-point paths and cache eligible open directories without listing them. Marker checks can use filesystem metadata when no listing is available.
Startup environment and package-manager paths src/bundler/transpiler.rs, src/dotenv/*, src/install/PackageManager.rs, src/install/*, src/runtime/cli/pm_view_command.rs
Dotenv loading opens selected filenames directly. The package manager stores a root path and checks lockfiles and node_modules with path operations. The package view command reads package.json from that path.
Router and command-completion code obtains listings through locked accessors. The test scanner reads root entries through the filesystem iterator and processes cached entries without the previous has_iterated guard. CLI tests cover completion output and package-root read failure handling. The AOT held-test list includes a case for a file deleted after resolution.
Listing counter and behavior tests src/jsc/Counters.*, test/bundler/bundler_compile_autoload.test.ts, test/js/bun/resolve/resolver-dir-listing.test.ts
The runtime exposes a readdir count. Tests check directory-read counts, resolver and dotenv behavior, and entry-point handling.

Severity of issue fixed: Medium
Merge Risk: Low · up to 44b10
The startup optimization is mergeable with awareness of two narrow limitations: case-mismatched entries on casefolded Linux filesystems can execute twice, and root-run permission tests can fail with a restricted temporary directory. The reported package-directory handle leak is fixed.

Explanation
The title "resolver: build DirInfo without listing the directory" matches the main change. The PR replaces full directory listings in the resolver's DirInfo construction with fixed-name fstatat probes, direct stat of the entry point, and direct open of default .env names. The title is specific and concise. It omits the .env and entry-point parts, but those are secondary to the primary change.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#48125, #47103] Requirement: startup must not scale with entries in the cwd, the entry directory, or ancestor directories. Discovery of bunfig.toml, package.json, tsconfig.json, and node_modules must still work. Evidence from the whole-PR summary: dir_info_cached_miss answers the marker names (node_modules, package.json, tsconfig.json, jsconfig.json, .bin) with one fstatat through RealFS::kind_at. A walked directory without a listing is stored as EntriesOption::Unlisted. A listing is read only when a reader needs names (entries_at_locked, read_directory_with_iterator, get_entries_listed_locked). The entry point is resolved by one stat (Resolver::resolve_entry_point). Default .env files are opened by name, and ENOENT is treated as absent. PackageManager.root_dir is probed by name. The PR reports release-build measurements: bun -e 0 with 200k cwd entries 120.2 ms to 11.3 ms, and with 200k parent entries 109.2 ms to 11.1 ms. The test file test/js/bun/resolve/resolver-dir-listing.test.ts and the getCounters().readdir counter cover the listing counts. Limit: a script that imports a sibling in a large directory still lists that directory once in load_as_file (136 ms to 126 ms). The issue gives no numeric limit for that case, and the PR names stat-first load_as_file as follow-up work. [#32389] The issue gives no expected behavior or acceptance criteria. The ancestor walk that it reports is removed for any depth. The PR does not measure a /nix/store path, so this link is inferred, not measured. Limit of this assessment: bunfig.toml is not in the marker list. The bunfig read path is taken from the prior review, which states it is read by path. The PR text does not repeat that claim, and no bunfig-specific test is listed in the PR verification. The primary requirements of #48125 and #47103 are met by the code and tests described.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changes follow from removing the eager directory listing, which implements [#48125, #47103]. Resolver core changes (EntriesOption::Unlisted, kind_at, resolve_entry_point, dir_info_uncached, readdir counter) implement the linked requirements. Readers that used get_entries_const now use get_entries_listed_locked: route loader, filesystem router, bake router, and run_command completions. Because the root listing is no longer cached, PackageManager.root_dir becomes a path with a root_dir_has_node_modules flag. pm_view_command, the security scanner, update_transitive, and auto_installer change to match. The dotenv loader opens default names directly, so DirEntryProbe and DirEntryKeys are removed. Test changes support the requirement checks: the readdir counter, the getcompletes bin test in test/cli/bun.test.ts for the .bin listing path, the bun-pack expectation moved to the first reader, and the autoload-readdir test in bundler_compile_autoload. The Scanner.rs change follows from reading the root without a cached listing. The test/aot/runner-suites.programs.txt comment change describes the deleted-after-resolution case. Side effects disclosed by the PR are consequences of the new entry-point and listing code, not unrelated work: bun test visits the root in name order; bun /dev/null and FIFO entries now run because the entry point is resolved by stat; and on macOS and Windows a case-only entry match uses the on-disk spelling. The #42921 rebase is a follow-up and is not part of this PR. No change was shown to be unrelated to the linked issues.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the repository template with both required sections, "What does this PR do?" and "How did you verify your code works?". The first section gives a detailed problem statement, the fix, the design rationale, downsides, and benchmark data. The second section lists the specific test files run, the test counts, and the platform coverage. Linked issues #48125, #47103, and #32389 are named. The description is substantive and specific, so it meets the template's requirements. The only gap is that the platform-specific tests (resolver-dir-listing, bun-pack, bun.test.ts) were deferred to CI, which the author states openly. That gap is a verification caveat, not a missing section.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked whether resolve_entry_point changes which package.json/tsconfig scope a symlinked entry file is compiled under: finalize_result looks up read_dir_info on path.name(), which is built from path.text (the path as typed), not the realpath set from cache.symlink, so a symlinked entry keeps the same scoping as every other symlinked module. Not run in this review: bun run rust:check-all for the Windows arm of RealFS::kind_at and the other #[cfg]-gated code in this change.
Extended reasoning...
The change rewires the resolver's directory walk (src/resolver/resolver.rs, src/resolver/lib.rs, src/resolver/dir_info.rs) to cache an Unlisted fd slot instead of a full listing, adds a stat-based entry point resolver called from VirtualMachine.rs, and touches the .env loader, package manager root handling, test Scanner and completions; it touches no auth or crypto surface but does change filesystem permission handling (EACCES) and fd ownership. Ten inline findings are being posted, several of them substantive (unlocked discriminant read in get_file_descriptor, fd leak on failed lazy listing, stale not-found entries slot, case-insensitive entry duplication), and the hunt stopped on max_bugs rather than running dry, so approval is off the table; this note only records one concern examined and ruled out by reading.
Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.
…ead, keep the on-disk case of the entry
An opaque ancestor keeps the empty listing it had. A listing read with
a caller's handle no longer honours a stale not-found mark. The entry
point's module key is the on-disk spelling on a case-insensitive
filesystem. The compiled-executable listing test moves to the
bundler compile suite.

Review comments at @src/install/PackageManager.rs:
- Around line 3136-3138: Update the lockfile discovery check using
bun_sys::Dir::open and lstatat so only confirmed absence of both bun.lock and
bun.lockb triggers fallback; propagate other metadata lookup errors instead of
treating them as a missing lockfile.
Review comments at @src/jsc/VirtualMachine.rs:
- Around line 5561-5565: Update the absolute-entry fast path in the code using
`resolve_entry_point` so cwd tsconfig path mappings are applied before accepting
the original entry path. When a mapping resolves to another existing file, use
that configured replacement; preserve the current fast-path behavior when no
mapping applies.
Review comments at @src/resolver/resolver.rs:
- Around line 1873-1879: Update the fast-path validation around `rfs_ref().kind`
so it verifies the entry’s actual file type is a regular file before accepting
it; reject FIFOs and openable devices rather than allowing them to reach the
loader.
- Around line 1865-1871: Update the resolver fast-path guard to route
directory-spelled import paths to the fallback resolver before `abs_buf_checked`
normalizes them; use `import_path_names_directory` if available and preserve the
existing behavior for other paths.
- Around line 3901-3902: The read_directory call in the resolver flow can leak
open_dir when it fails or the result is already cached. Update the surrounding
error and cache-hit paths to close the directory handle when it is not retained,
while preserving handles adopted by the listing; locate this flow using
read_directory and dir_entries_option.
- Around line 1886-1888: Update the abs_path selection to preserve the directory
entry’s spelling for entry filenames on case-insensitive Linux filesystems, so
the entry key matches imports such as ./main.ts and the file is evaluated only
once.
- Line 5074: Move the existing safety comment in the `if let` expression
directly next to its `unsafe` block so Clippy associates the comment with the
unsafe operation; leave the expression’s behavior unchanged.
- Around line 5033-5038: Add a regression test for stale directory listings in
the resolver tests: create an older listing without a DirInfo, add a
tsconfig.json alias, then use a newer resolver to discover the directory and
assert that the alias resolves. Ensure the test exercises reuse of the older
listing rather than only a fresh-directory lookup.
Review comments at @test/bundler/bundler_compile_autoload.test.ts:
- Around line 9-27: Set BUN_FEATURE_FLAG_INTERNAL_FOR_TESTING to "1" in the run
environment for AutoloadReadsNoDirectoryListing so the compiled executable can
import bun:internal-for-testing and check the directory-listing counter.
Review comments at @test/js/bun/resolve/resolver-dir-listing.test.ts:
- Around line 172-176: Set the child process’s BUN_ENV explicitly to development
in the run call that checks FROM_ENV, FROM_LOCAL, and FROM_PROD, so the test
consistently selects the expected dotenv files regardless of the test runner’s
environment.
- Around line 233-252: Update the fixture setup around root and script so that,
when running as nobody, every parent directory from the temporary base through
the script is searchable; create it under a traversable temporary base, or skip
the test if none is available. Preserve the existing permissions and execution
assertions.

The executable holds the file, so its first on-disk listing happens after theunlink, and the second import reports the file as missing instead of failing to read it. The plain run still lists the directory on the first import and keeps the stale entry.
