test(bundler): build the native-plugin addon once and bundle the files the test writes - #36084
test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts compiles its addon twice. bun i runs node-gyp rebuild because the fixture has a binding.gyp. build:napi follows, and the first test repeats both.
Most tests bundle the wrong entrypoint: their relative echo > index.ts misses the tempdir that Bun.build reads. The "100 concurrent files" tests bundle one JSON module. The loader tests pass with the onBeforeParse line deleted.
Fix
Install with --ignore-scripts and build the addon once, with -j max. Drop the unused @types/bun and typescript.
Write each fixture under a unique absolute path, with one outdir per test. The suite runs with describe.concurrent, and the regex stress test stays serial.
Assert the exact stdout, stderr and exit code of each bundle. The loader tests assert the rewritten module or the emitted asset bytes.
Verified: bun bd test test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts, median of 6 interleaved runs: 9.33 s before, 5.83 s after (debug), 2.51 s to 0.95 s (release 1.4.3). CI: below all three main runs on 5 of 7 lanes, see Notes. No other suite ran.
Background
A native plugin is an N-API addon. build.onBeforeParse calls its C function on a bundler thread for each matching file. The fixture plugin counts "foo" and rewrites it to "qoo".
Every Bun.build in a process queues on one bundle thread. The regex stress test needs its loop to overlap its own build, so it runs serially.
CI skips this file on Windows (test/expectations.txt:24). I did not run it there.
Notes
Timing, all values (measured at 31baafb. The head 326a13d differs only in a comment, and it passes 3 of 3 debug runs and 3 of 3 release runs)
Same machine (linux x64), same debug build of main at 449877f, runs interleaved. "Before" is the test file of main. Both sides use the fixture plugin of this PR, because the test imports it from its own directory.
Repeat runs at 31baafb: 23 of 23 debug runs pass, and 33 of 33 release runs pass.
One debug run of an instrumented copy of the test file of main failed here, out of 26 runs of that file. I did not capture why.
expect() calls on the debug build: 39 before, 68 after. The file has 21 tests, one more than before.
Measured at an earlier revision (eb04ac3), not repeated: with a cold install cache the debug run takes 12.46 and 12.28 s before, 6.49 and 6.84 s after. The install cache holds 51 MB before and 13 MB after.
CI
Build 132951 ran on the current head, 326a13d. 158 of its 160 test jobs passed. The shard logs show that this file ran on 9 POSIX lanes, in shards that passed, and it is in no failure or flake report. It did not run on Windows. The build is red for two tests that this PR does not touch. ws-proxy.test.ts fails on Windows 2019, and it is also red on main (build 132844). node-http-uaf.test.ts timed out on darwin x64, in a shard that did not run this file.
Build 132902 ran on 39742e4, before -j max and the serial regex test. All 181 jobs passed, and the file ran and passed on 9 POSIX lanes.
The like-for-like numbers are from 132951. There the file ran inside the parallel batch, as it does on main (80 to 822 files, 3 or 4 workers).

It is one PR run per lane. Seven lanes ran the file in the batch. On 5 of them the PR run is below all three main runs. On the two ubuntu lanes it is about equal to the fastest main run and below the other two.
Two lanes ran the file alone in 132951, so they are not like for like. The ASAN lane is not in these main builds: 3.54 s, and 3.25 s in 132902. Darwin x64: 2.48 s with 21 tests passed, and 2.02 s in 132902.
Build 132902 is not comparable with main. It ran the file alone on every lane (2.02 to 4.35 s), because the runner starts modified test files first and alone (scripts/runner.node.ts:1332). The compile was then the first one on the agent: 2.24 s for the 27 lines of not_a_plugin.cc on debian 13 x64. I do not know why 132951 did not treat the file as modified.
-j max (1644311) shows no gain where I can compare. On the ASAN lane the two compiles took 1.87 s one after the other in 132902, and 2.05 to 2.18 s together in 132951. Locally the difference is inside the noise (0.75 to 0.80 s without, 0.70 to 1.13 s with). I kept it because the implicit rebuild on main also compiles the two files in parallel.
The regex stress test
The test runs 10000 filter.test calls on the JS thread while the bundler threads use a clone of the same filter. The probe is the foo count of the plugin: it shows whether the .ts files passed the filter before the loop ended. Whole-file runs, 6 each.
With 12 builds queued ahead, a loop after Bun.build() never overlaps (0 of 20, standalone probe). That is the case under describe.concurrent.
A loop inside onLoad ends before defer() resolves. The JSON files reach the bundler threads only after that, so only stuff.ts can overlap.
On release builds the loop of main ends before the bundler first uses the filter. This PR does not change that.
Evidence for the Problem bullets (all on main at 449877f)
A probe in each "100 concurrent files" test prints outputJsons.length=1.
A probe in each loader test prints the same bundle for all seven: lmao.json and index.ts, one output, no asset.
With the build.onBeforeParse line removed from the loader tests, 7 of 7 pass on main. With this PR, 7 of 8 fail. Only the PNG case passes, because bun.png holds no "foo".
bun i in a copy of the fixture prints $ node-gyp rebuild and leaves two .node files. With --ignore-scripts it leaves none. The CI log of main (build 132844, debian 13 x64) shows the same sequence: 2 implicit rebuilds, 4 compile lines, 4 make runs, 2 of them with nothing to do.
Five tests (logging an error, versioning, plugin crashes, function pointer, first plugin) wrote a prelude that never reached the build. They keep the shared index.ts. So they bundle what they bundle on main, and their onLoad handler for lmao.json stays live.
The entries that main tries to write cannot pass as written. An unused import values is dropped from a .ts file, so the count is 8 and not 9. A line (() => values)(); after a line with no semicolon throws TypeError: console.log(JSON.stringify(lmao99_default)) is not a function. The loader fixtures have no default export. The new entries use values;, semicolons and export default.
With --ignore-scripts this file no longer runs the implicit node-gyp rebuild of bun install. test/cli/install/bun-install-lifecycle-scripts.test.ts tests that behaviour directly.
The fixture plugin (native_plugin.cc) scanned with strstr and compared a cursor into its copy against the end of the original buffer. It now bounds both scans by the source length. It rewrites every "foo", also one after a NUL byte. Only this test uses the fixture.
The PNG case cannot tell whether the plugin ran. It asserts that the asset comes out byte for byte. The new .bin case covers the plugin: it fails when the plugin does not run. It holds a NUL byte with a "foo" on each side, so it also fails when the plugin stops at the NUL.
The spawned scripts are named crash-fixture.ts and json-entry-fixture.ts, as test/CLAUDE.md asks.
describe.concurrent starts every test timer at once while Bun.build calls queue on one bundle thread. On the debug ASAN build here the slowest test takes 2.0 s against the 5 s default, and CI runs with 90 s.
Considered a build without node-gyp. It needs Node headers and a compiler lookup per platform.
Corrections
To earlier statements on this revision:
An earlier body gave 8.50 s to 5.09 s and 2.33 s to 0.97 s, with 29 of 29 and 37 of 37 repeat runs. Those were measured at eb04ac3. Five commits followed. The numbers above are for the current head.
A reply on this PR said that the loop inside onLoad runs while the bundler thread matches the same filter against the other files. The measurement above does not support that. 31baafb replaces that change.
An earlier body implied a CI gain by giving only local numbers. A later one said that CI showed no gain, and that the cause was the sequential compile. The first statement had no CI data behind it. The second came from build 132902, where the file ran first and alone, and its stated cause was an inference that the ASAN numbers do not support. The CI section above has the numbers.
An earlier body named build 132947 as the first CI run with -j max. A push canceled that build after 8 minutes. The run is 132951.
The first body gave 9.1, 9.4, 11.9 s before and 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 s after. Those runs were not interleaved, and the "after" values were the best of several series. The command was the debug binary with --timeout 120000, not plain bun bd test.
"39 to 382 expect() calls" counted a loop over 100 lines in three tests.
My CI comment said that the file passed on every lane. I posted it 25 minutes before the build finished, and CI does not run this file on Windows. The build logs now confirm 10 of 10 POSIX lanes.
The July revision removed an onLoad registration from four tests. It also kept not.toContain("foo"), which can match the random tempdir name in a bundle comment. This revision restores the first and removes the second.
The July revision removed only the duplicate build in the first test. It did not find the implicit node-gyp rebuild.
Also
A self-review in July raised 3 concerns, all about the file-loader case. One was addressed then. This revision addresses the other two.
The branch holds a merge of main, with no force-push.
no test proof · iteration 0 · platform-specific test(s) that do not run on this machine, deferring to CI, which covers all platforms: test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts
The first test re-ran 'bun i && node-gyp build' even though beforeAll had
just done it. The beforeEach added in a3cbf97 chdir'd to a fresh empty
directory, so every 'echo > index.ts' in the suite wrote to that throwaway
dir while Bun.build kept reading the original tempdir/index.ts; the three
"100 concurrent files" tests bundled a single JSON import instead of 100,
and all seven loader tests bundled the wrong entrypoint so onBeforeParse
never saw the file under test.
Drop the redundant rebuild and the chdir churn, write every fixture with
an absolute path, give each test its own entrypoint and outdir, load the
napi module once in beforeAll, and run the suite under describe.concurrent
so the subprocess spawns overlap. The restored loader tests now assert the
plugin actually rewrote 'foo' to 'qoo' in the bundle output rather than
only checking build.success.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The native plugin scans source bytes within their explicit length and replaces non-overlapping occurrences of foo with qoo. The tests check build and runtime results, crash output, garbage-collection behavior, and rewriting or emitting added-file inputs.
The scanner searches the source’s explicit byte length, counts non-overlapping matches, and replaces the first byte of each match with q.
Shared test harness test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts
The suite uses isolated output directories and entrypoints. It installs dependencies with scripts disabled before building native addons and adds helpers to run bundles and generate JSON-module entries.
Native plugin test scenarios test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts
Tests assert build logs, success, stdout, stderr, and exit codes. The crash test captures stderr and exit status from a spawned build script. A GC-lifetime test checks inline external finalization during and after a build.
Added-file and threaded build coverage test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts
Fixtures cover JS, TS, JSX, TSX, TOML, text, PNG, and binary data. Assertions check inlined output and emitted asset bytes, including bytes after a NUL. The serial regex/thread test checks filter matches while a build is pending.

No bugs found. This is a substantial test rewrite (~400 lines) that both restructures for concurrency and materially changes what the assertions check, so it's worth a maintainer glance rather than a bot approval.
What was reviewed:
Verified per-test isolation under describe.concurrent: each test uses a distinct entry/outdir and its own external; setThrowsErrors/setWillCrash/counts are per-External in native_plugin.cc, not module-global.
Confirmed the removed onLoad({filter: /\.json/}) handlers in the error/versioning/crash/badfree tests were dead — those entries no longer import any .json.
Checked the new loader-test assertions against plugin_impl_with_needle ("foo" → "qoo", first char replaced) and that the .ts filter also matching the entry file is harmless (entry contains no "foo").
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Test-only refactor of test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts. Removes a redundant bun i && build:napi, drops process.chdir + shell echo fixture writing in favor of Bun.write(path.join(tempdir, ...)), gives every test its own entrypoint/outdir, hoists the napi require into beforeAll, moves the suite to describe.concurrent, and strengthens assertions (100-file tests now assert 100 outputs; loader tests now assert the foo→qoo rewrite appears in the bundled output). No production code touched.
Security risks
None. Test-only; no new external inputs, no auth/crypto/permissions.
Level of scrutiny
Medium. It's test-only, but not mechanical: it changes what each test actually exercises (previously the beforeEach chdir made most fixture writes go to a throwaway dir, so the 100-file and loader tests were bundling the wrong entry). The strengthened assertions and the describe.concurrent isolation story are the parts a human should sanity-check.
Other factors
I traced native_plugin.cc to confirm all mutable state (throws_an_error, simulate_crash, foo_count, compilation_ctx_freed_count) hangs off the per-test External, so concurrent Bun.build calls sharing the module handle don't cross-talk.
The removed await on Bun.file(...bun.png) is a no-op removal (awaiting a BunFile returns itself); Bun.write(path, BunFile) still copies.
compilation_ctx_free prints to the test-process stdout, not to any subprocess whose stderr is now asserted empty, so the new expect(stderr).toBe("") checks are safe.
PR description reports 15/15 consecutive passes on debug+ASAN; wall time roughly halved and expect() count went from 39 to 382, which matches the coverage-restoration claim.
Deferring rather than approving because the diff is large and reshapes the test contracts enough that someone familiar with the native-plugin API should confirm the new assertions (especially expect(text).not.toContain("foo") in the loader tests) match the intended guarantees across platforms.
The fallback assertion toContain("loader") matched the entry's own source
comment regardless of the asset, and the explanatory comment wrongly said
onBeforeParse skips the file loader (it runs; the PNG just has no 'foo'
before its first NUL byte). Rename the PNG fixture to a unique basename,
assert the emitted asset exists and is referenced from the entry output.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
I didn't find any bugs, but this is a ~400-line test refactor that switches the whole suite to describe.concurrent with a shared tempdir and shared napiModule, so it's worth a human sanity-check before merging.
What was reviewed:
Traced every test's fixture writes — each uses a unique entry name, unique json_files* dir, and unique dist-* outdir; no path collides under concurrent execution.
Verified the loader-test rewrite: plugin_impl sets cursor[0] = 'q' (native_plugin.cc:133), so the new expectTransformed: "…qoo…" assertions match; the .ts case's own entry (entry_loader_ts.ts) matches the filter but contains no "foo", so not.toContain("foo") holds.
Checked that tests still using the shared index.ts/lmao.json only read them, never write, and that per-test externals keep native counter state isolated.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR refactors test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts (test-only, no runtime code touched). It removes the process.chdir-based fixture pattern that had silently neutered several tests since Jan 2025, gives every test its own entry file and outdir under one shared tempdir, loads the napi module once in beforeAll, replaces Bun.$ shell echoes with Bun.write/Bun.spawn, and switches the suite to describe.concurrent. It also strengthens assertions: the three 100-file tests now assert outputJsons.length === 100, and the seven per-loader tests now assert the plugin's foo→qoo rewrite is present in the bundled output rather than just result.success.
Security risks
None. This is a test file; it does not touch runtime, parsing, auth, or network code. The bun i against the public registry in beforeAll is pre-existing.
Level of scrutiny
Medium. It's test-only, but it is a large diff and the serial→concurrent switch is the kind of change that can introduce order-dependent flakes on slower/different-core-count CI runners even when 15 local runs pass. I traced the shared state: all concurrent tests write to disjoint filenames, each creates its own napi external (counters are per-external atomics in native_plugin.cc), and the two subprocess-based tests (gc_safe, json_entry) load their own napiModule instance so their global counters can't interfere with the in-process tests. I did not find a race, but a maintainer who knows this suite should confirm the concurrency assumption.
Other factors
The refactor fixes a real coverage gap the PR description documents convincingly (the old beforeEach chdir meant echo > index.ts wrote to a throwaway dir).
Removed dead onLoad handlers in the error-path tests are genuinely unreachable (those builds throw before any .json is loaded).
The dropped await on getCompilationCtxFreedCount is correct — it's a synchronous native call.
The commit message mentions a prior review round ("fix file-loader assertion and comment per review"), so someone has already looked at an earlier revision, but no reviewer comments are visible on the timeline.
Given the size and the concurrency change, I'm deferring rather than approving.
Status: reopened on 2026-10-26. The head is 326a13d, and it waits for a maintainer review.
CI: build 132951 finished. native-plugin.test.ts ran on 9 POSIX lanes, in shards that passed, and it is in no failure or flake report. CI does not run it on Windows. The build is red for two tests that this PR does not touch: ws-proxy.test.ts on Windows 2019, which is also red on main (build 132844), and node-http-uaf.test.ts on darwin x64, which timed out in a shard that did not run this file. The PR body has the per-lane times.
How to reproduce the problem on main:
Run bun i in a copy of the test fixture (package.json, binding.gyp, the two .cc files). It prints $ node-gyp rebuild and builds both addons before build:napi runs.
Add console.error(outputJsons.length) to a "100 concurrent files" test. It prints 1.
Delete the build.onBeforeParse line in the loader tests. All seven still pass.
Correction (2026-10-26): an earlier version of this comment said that native-plugin.test.ts passed on every lane of build 83284. I posted that 25 minutes before the build finished, and I had only checked that the file was absent from the failure list. The build logs now show that the file ran and passed on all 10 POSIX lanes. CI does not run this file on Windows (test/expectations.txt:24). The earlier comment also called two other failures known flakes. I only knew that they passed on retry.
…tests write
The file compiled the addon twice and ran node-gyp configure four times.
`bun i` runs `node-gyp rebuild` by itself when a binding.gyp is present,
`build:napi` ran after it, and the first test repeated both. Install with
--ignore-scripts and build once in beforeAll.
The fixture package.json listed @types/bun and typescript. Nothing uses
them. Remove them.
From the second test on, the relative `echo > index.ts` writes did not
reach the tempdir that Bun.build reads. The three "100 concurrent files"
tests bundled one JSON module. The seven loader tests bundled the shared
index.ts and never the loader fixture. Write each fixture with an
absolute path under a unique name.
The tests that only differ from the shared index.ts by a prelude that was
never used keep the shared index.ts, so they bundle what they bundled
before.
Give each test its own outdir and run the suite with describe.concurrent.
Assert the exact stdout, stderr and exit code of each bundle. The loader
tests assert the rewritten module or the emitted asset bytes. Add one
file-loader case where the plugin rewrites the asset.

Oct 26, 2026
It merges main and applies the change to the current file.
It removes a larger cost that the July revision did not find. bun i runs node-gyp rebuild because the fixture has a binding.gyp, so main compiles the addon twice and configures it four times.
It restores four onLoad registrations that the July revision removed. It also removes an assertion that could match the random tempdir name in a bundle comment.
Each test that only lost an unused prelude keeps the shared index.ts, so it bundles what it bundles on main.
The PR body has the new numbers, the evidence for each claim, and a list of corrections to what I wrote in July. I also corrected my earlier CI comment above in place.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):
🟡 test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:774 — Developers whose temp-directory path contains "foo" get six permanently failing loader tests after merging, where the base only asserted success. The new negative check expect(text).not.toContain("foo") at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:774 scans the whole bundled artifact, and the bundler prefixes every module with a // <path> comment that is relative to the test process cwd, so it spells out the tempdir path. Fix: restrict the "foo" check to module code (drop lines starting with // before asserting, or assert not.toContain('"HELLO foo FRIENDS"') / the toml value) so path components never satisfy it.
Why this was flagged
Each loader test writes its fixture under tempdir, which is fs.mkdtempSync(join(realpath(os.tmpdir()), "native-plugins_")) at test/harness.ts:428, and on CI the runner additionally sets TMPDIR to a mkdtemp "buntmp-" dir (scripts/runner.node.mjs:1414-1420). Bun.build emits a // <pretty> comment before each module's code (src/bundler/linker_context/postProcessJSChunk.rs:631-673); pretty is relative_platform_buf(top_level_dir, path) at src/bundler/bundle_v2.rs:7493-7505 with top_level_dir = process cwd. Since the PR removed process.chdir, the comment reads e.g. // ../../tmp/buntmp-XXXXXX/native-plugins_XXXXXX/loader.ts on Linux. Whenever any of those components contains "foo" (a username such as "foobar" or a mkdtemp suffix), test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:774 fails for js, ts, jsx, tsx, toml and text even though the plugin rewrote the source correctly. On the base branch the loader tests asserted only result.success, so this environment dependence did not exist.
Verification: nit — triggers when the resolved temp directory path contains the substring "foo"; then all six loader tests fail on the new assertion even though the plugin worked. test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:771-774 scans the entire bundled artifact. src/bundler/linker_context/postProcessJSChunk.rs:631-687 emit a // path comment spelling out the tempdir path. The base branch only asserted result.success.
🟡 test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:12 — Developers running bun bd test on a debug build can see late tests in this file time out at the 5s default, which never happened on the base branch. test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:12 switches to describe.concurrent, so every test's timer starts at once, yet all in-process Bun.build calls still queue on the single bundle thread (src/bundler/BundleThread.rs:213-237 pops completions one at a time). The last-served test's 5s window now covers every earlier build, including three 100-module builds with deferred onLoad hooks. Fix: keep each test's timeout tied to its own work, e.g. run the three 100-file builds serially (plain describe) or raise the file-level timeout with a stated reason.
Why this was flagged
Trigger: a debug or debug+ASAN build of bun running this file locally through bun bd test test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts, where the per-test timeout is the 5000ms default (the CI runner overrides it to 90s via scripts/runner.node.mjs:1607, so CI hides this). Under describe.concurrent at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:12 all ~16 tests start together and their timers run while they wait. Each Bun.build is pushed to the BundleThread singleton and processed strictly sequentially in the loop at src/bundler/BundleThread.rs:213-237. So the test served last waits for every other build, including entry_many.ts, entry_regex.ts and entry_noext.ts (100 JSON modules each with a deferred onLoad). On the base branch tests were serial and each timer covered only its own build. A slower laptop or ASAN on macOS can push the queued tail test over 5s and fail it with a timeout. Remedy: keep the heavy builds serial or set an explicit, justified timeout.
Verification: test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:12 describe.concurrent("native-plugins", ...) with 20 it(...) entries; each entry's deadline is armed at start (src/runtime/test_runner/Execution.rs:615-617). Default per-test timeout is 5000ms (src/options_types/context.rs:477); CI overrides it (scripts/runner.node.mjs:1607). src/bundler/BundleThread.rs:213-237 pops completions in a loop and calls generate_in_new_thread synchronously, so the last-served test's 5s window covers every earlier build.
🟡 test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:781 — nit: a regression that stops onBeforeParse firing for file-loader modules would still pass this suite, because the file-loader case never observes the plugin. The else branch at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:778-780 only checks that an asset was emitted and referenced, which the bundler does with no plugin registered at all. Fix: make the file-loader case fail when the plugin does not run, e.g. write probe_asset.png with bytes containing "foo" before any NUL (the file loader never parses them) and assert the emitted asset's text contains "qoo" and not "foo". That works because process_files_to_copy at src/bundler/bundle_v2.rs:4143 emits the plugin-replaced source.contents as the asset. [also at: test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:780 - nit: Maintainers get a "works with file loader" case that still passes if onBeforeParse never fires for the file loader, so a regression there goes unnoticed.]
Why this was flagged
The "works with file loader" case at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:744 registers onBeforeParse with filter /.png$/ and no external, then takes the else branch at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:775-781. That branch asserts only that result.outputs contains an asset ending in .png and that the entry text references its basename. Both facts hold for a plain Bun.build with no plugins, so the assertions cannot distinguish "plugin ran and found no foo" from "plugin never invoked for the file loader". The base branch's version only asserted result.success, so this is pre-existing weakness that the PR's stated purpose ("restore lost coverage", loader tests should observe the foo->qoo rewrite) leaves open for this one loader. A stronger fixture is available: src/bundler/ParseTask.rs:1255 hashes source.contents for Loader::File and src/bundler/bundle_v2.rs:4143 moves source.contents into the OutputFile, so an asset whose bytes contain "foo" before the first NUL would be emitted with "qoo" when the plugin ran and with "foo" when it did not.
Verification: The "works with file loader" entry (:700-704) has no expectTransformed, so the test takes the else branch at :775-781, whose only assertions are expect(asset).toBeDefined() and expect(text).toContain(path.basename(asset!.path)). Hence a regression that stopped onBeforeParse firing for file-loader modules would still pass this suite.
🟡 test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:420 — nit: The spawned helper script is renamed to build_crash.ts, but test/CLAUDE.md asks that files a test spawns end in *-fixture.ts so they are recognisable as fixtures. Fix: since the file is being renamed anyway, write it as build_crash-fixture.ts (and update the cmd path at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:425).
Why this was flagged
The diff renames the subprocess script from build.ts to build_crash.ts at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:420 and spawns it at :425. test/CLAUDE.md states that a file spawned as a Bun process should end in *-fixture.ts. The rename touched the name but did not adopt the convention, so a maintainer scanning the tempdir cannot tell the fixture from a bundled entry. No runtime consequence; style only.
Verification: nit. Triggering condition: whenever the rename lands as written. The diff writes await Bun.write(path.join(tempdir, "build_crash.ts"), build_code); at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:420 and spawns it at :425. The new name does not follow the *-fixture.ts convention in test/CLAUDE.md:98. Nothing breaks at runtime: the test behaves identically.
🟣 test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:761 — Six new loader tests now hand plugin_impl 14-36 byte buffers, so a stray "foo" in adjacent heap bytes can corrupt the test process heap and crash the whole file. native_plugin.cc:131-139 strstr's a malloc(source_len) copy that has no NUL terminator and bounds the scan with cursor + 3 < end, where end points into the original source allocation, not the copy. For loader.toml (hello = "foo"\n, 14 bytes) the cursor is 2 bytes from the copy's end and the compare is cross-allocation, so strstr reads chunk padding and metadata; a match writes 'q' there. Fix: bound both loops by source_len of the buffer being scanned (memmem or a NUL-terminated copy) in native_plugin.cc.
Why this was flagged
Trigger: any of the six transformed-loader cases registered at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:743-761, which call plugin_impl with no external on tiny fixtures (hello = "foo"\n, HELLO foo FRIENDS\n). In native_plugin.cc:131-139 the second loop does new_source = malloc(result->source_len) (no NUL), rewrites the first match, advances 3, then checks cursor + 3 < end where end was computed from result->source_ptr (a different allocation at native_plugin.cc:115). That pointer comparison across allocations is undefined and in practice ordered by address, so when the copy sits below the original the loop calls strstr on bytes past the 14-byte copy until it hits a NUL. If those bytes contain "foo", cursor[0] = 'q' writes outside the copy, corrupting heap metadata and crashing bun test. The base branch only reached this with index.ts (~300 bytes) and stuff.ts, where the rewrite ended well inside the buffer; the new fixtures put the cursor within 2-12 bytes of the allocation end. Remedy: bound both scans by the scanned buffer's own length (memmem) or NUL-terminate the copy.
Verification: pre-existing. test/bundler/native_plugin.cc line 113 end points into the original buffer; the line 126 copy has no NUL terminator; lines 131-139 loop with if (cursor + 3 < end), so strstr scans past the copy's end and a "foo" there gets cursor[0] = 'q' written out of bounds. The base drives the same path with needs_foo.json and stuff.ts, so merging leaves the base no worse.
The fixture plugin searched with strstr and compared a cursor into the
copy against the end of the original buffer. Bound both scans by the
source length so short or binary sources never read past the copy.
Name the spawned scripts *-fixture.ts.
Thanks for the review. Status of each finding, against 5457ae4:
not.toContain("foo") on the whole bundle: already gone in eb04ac3. The loader tests assert the rewritten value (HELLO qoo FRIENDS, "qoo") and nothing about foo.
File loader case never observes the plugin: the PNG case checks the bytes come out unchanged. The .bin case next to it holds foo on both sides of a NUL byte and asserts both become qoo. It fails when the plugin does not run.
strstr past the end of the copy in native_plugin.cc: fixed in 5457ae4. Both scans are now bounded by the source length with a memcmp loop, so a NUL byte no longer stops the scan either. The .bin expectation now rewrites the second foo too.
Fixture names: renamed to crash-fixture.ts and json-entry-fixture.ts.
describe.concurrent and the 5 s default: on the debug ASAN build here the slowest test is 2.0 s, and the CI runner passes 90 s. I left the structure as it is. The beforeAll hook (node-gyp compile) is the part that exceeds 5 s locally, and it does so on main as well.

🟡 test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts — nit: the regex-vs-bundler-thread stress test no longer overlaps its own build, so a regression in the cloned filter RegExp would pass here where the base at least had a window to catch it. Under describe.concurrent the 10000-iteration loop at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:226 runs right after its Bun.build is enqueued, but that build sits behind the earlier tests' builds in the single bundle thread's FIFO queue, so the bundler never touches filter while the loop runs. Fix: keep the stress test exercising the JS thread and the bundler on the same filter at the same time, e.g. mark this one test it.serial so the bundle thread is idle when it enqueues, or await a signal (an onLoad hop) that the build has started before running the loop.
Why this was flagged
Bun.build calls from one process are queued to one bundle thread and run one at a time (src/bundler/BundleThread.rs:243-273, thread_main pops the queue and runs generate_in_new_thread synchronously). bun:test starts the tests of a concurrent group in order up to max_concurrency (20, 5 under ASAN)…
Verification: Under describe.concurrent the regex test's build is enqueued behind earlier tests' builds on the bundle thread, and the 10000-iteration filter.test loop at test/bundler/native-plugin.test.ts:226-229 runs synchronously, so the bundle thread never calls FilterRegExp::match while the loop runs. On the base the test ran serially and the idle bundle thread parsed while the loop ran.
… test
Under describe.concurrent the loop after Bun.build() ran before the
build reached the bundler thread. The loop now runs in the onLoad
callback, while the bundler thread matches the same filter.
Agreed, the loop after Bun.build() had no overlap under describe.concurrent. 39742e4 moves the filter.test loop into the onLoad callback of the same test. That callback runs on the JS thread while the bundler thread is still parsing the other files and matching the same filter. It runs 100 times per JSON file, and the test asserts 10000 matches, so it also proves that every onLoad fired. The group stays concurrent. On the debug ASAN build the file still takes 6.3 s.
In CI the two C++ compiles are most of this file's time. On debian 13
x64 (build 132902) they take 2.24 s and 1.17 s of 4.35 s, one after the
other. The implicit `node-gyp rebuild` that `main` runs compiles them in
parallel, so one sequential build costs about as much as the two builds
on `main`. Pass `-j max` to `node-gyp build`.
…r Bun.build()
39742e4 moved the `filter.test` loop into the onLoad callback. Every
loop there ends before `defer()` resolves, and the JSON files reach the
bundler threads only after that. The one file that can overlap is
stuff.ts.
Measured with the plugin's foo count as a probe, whole-file runs on the
debug ASAN build:
- main (serial suite): both .ts files pass the filter while the loop
runs in 5 of 5 completed runs. A sixth run failed before the probe
line, and I did not capture why. A standalone probe gives 20 of 20.
- loop in onLoad under describe.concurrent: stuff.ts is still pending
at 1 to 3 of 200 loop boundaries in 3 of 6 runs, and at none in the
other 3.
- this commit: 6 of 6 runs, as on main.
Restore the loop from main and mark the test `it.serial`, after the
concurrent tests. Every Bun.build in the process queues on one bundle
thread, so the loop must not wait behind other builds.
Two follow-up commits, and one correction to my reply above about the regex stress test.
Correction. I wrote that the loop inside onLoad runs while the bundler thread matches the same filter against the other files. I measured it, and that is not what happens. Every loop ends before defer() resolves, and the JSON files reach the bundler threads only after that. Only stuff.ts can overlap.
The probe is the foo count of the plugin, read on the JS thread in whole-file runs. 31baafb restores the loop from main and marks that one test it.serial, after the concurrent tests. That costs about 0.5 s on the debug build.
CI time. Build 132902 passed, but on the Linux lanes it shows no gain over main. The two C++ compiles are most of the time: 2.24 s and 1.17 s of 4.35 s on debian 13 x64. My explicit node-gyp build ran them one after the other. The implicit rebuild on main runs them in parallel. 1644311 adds -j max. Build 132947 is the first CI run with it, and I will put its numbers in the PR body.
The PR body has the per-lane table and the rest of the evidence.
