Conversation
A BunFile stats lazily. When the first stat failed because the file did not exist yet, resolve_size() cached size 0 on the blob. Every later exists(), text(), bytes(), stream() and .size on that handle answered from the cached 0, and Bun.write(handle, Bun.file(src)) used it as the copy length and wrote 0 bytes. exists() also answered from the first successful stat forever, so a deleted file still reported true. resolve_size() now leaves the size unresolved when the stat fails, so the next access stats again. The .size getter still reports 0 for a missing file, but does not cache it. exists() stats the store on every call and no longer resolves the blob size. resolve_file_stat() clears the cached mode, size and mtime when the stat fails.

I reviewed this PR and the automated bug-hunting pass found no issues. Because it changes the caching semantics of Blob's size/stat state — the MAX_SIZE sentinel now flows further through resolve_size/resolved_size/get_size, and exists() now stats unconditionally — a maintainer look would still be worthwhile, particularly given the overlap with the broader redesign in #33659.
What was reviewed:
- Traced
get_sizeafter the change for regular files, pipes, and failed stats — pipes still reportInfinity(viaseekable = Some(false)), missing files report0without caching it. - Confirmed
get_exists(the JS.exists()) wrapsget_exists_sync, so both paths pick up the fix; S3 still returnsfalse. - Checked
resolved_size's only caller (ByteBlobLoader::setup) and theErrarm ofresolve_file_stat— the reset values match a freshFileStore's defaults.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR touches src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs (five functions: get_exists_sync, get_size, resolve_size, resolved_size, resolve_file_stat) and adds seven regression tests to test/js/bun/util/bun-file.test.ts. The core change is that a failed stat no longer caches size = 0 on the blob (it stays at the MAX_SIZE sentinel so the next access re-stats), exists() now stats on every call instead of once, and resolve_file_stat resets mode/max_size/seekable/last_modified on error so a store that had a good stat and then loses the file answers like a fresh handle. resolve_file_stat was also deduplicated across the path/fd arms.
Security risks
None identified. No new inputs are parsed, no trust boundaries change. The extra syscall in exists() is a stat on a path the caller already provided.
Level of scrutiny
This is a semantic change to core runtime behavior in a ~6000-line file that many code paths depend on. The MAX_SIZE sentinel now survives resolve_size() for missing files, and every consumer of that sentinel had to be re-checked (the PR body enumerates them: RequestContext HEAD, from_blob_copy_ref, FormData, structured clone). resolved_size() now returns MAX_SIZE instead of 0 for a failed-stat file store; the PR argues that arm is dead because ByteBlobLoader only uses byte stores, which I confirmed is the sole caller but did not trace every construction path of ByteBlobLoader. .exists() doing an unconditional stat is a deliberate perf-for-correctness trade. These are the kinds of cross-cutting invariant changes a maintainer should sign off on.
Other factors
- Two open GitHub issues (#4930, #22484) are fixed with direct reproductions in the test suite. The PR body lists 18 test suites run against the debug build.
- CodeRabbit raised three points, all addressed: the ENOTDIR test now asserts the exact per-platform code (b67b250), a
lastModifiedreset assertion was added (2920f8f), and the "swallowed non-ENOENT errors" comment was rebutted (pre-existing behavior;exists()and.sizeare documented to have no error channel). - Three
github-actionscomment-cop notices remain open on lines 1293/2289/6119. Each flagged comment is one or two lines, not a paragraph; one (line 2263, replied to by robobun) predates the PR. These look like linter noise rather than actionable feedback. - A broader redesign (#33659: re-stat on every
.size/.lastModified, explicit-size flag) overlaps with this scope. This PR is described as the subset suggested in review of #25702, which is a design decision a maintainer should confirm.

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it changes core Bun.file() stat/size caching semantics in Blob.rs — a path that underpins serve, streams, FormData, structuredClone and Bun.write — and because it overlaps with the broader re-stat work in #33659, a maintainer look would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
get_sizerewrite: verified failed-stat → 0 (uncached), pipe → Infinity, and the Bytes/regular-file paths are semantically unchanged from before.resolve_file_statrefactor:bun_sys::stat/fstatreturncore::result::Result, so plainOk/Errmatching is correct; theErr(_)reset restores the fresh-handle state.resolved_size()File arm: only caller isByteBlobLoader::setup(byte stores only), so the change to keep the size unresolved is dead in practice and now mirrorsresolve_size().get_exists_syncuses the tag-dispatch + freshdata_mut()re-read pattern that the neighbouring Stacked-Borrows comment prescribes.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Two files: src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs (~60 lines net) and test/js/bun/util/bun-file.test.ts (7 new tests). The runtime change stops resolve_size() from caching size = 0 on a blob when the stat fails, makes get_exists_sync() stat unconditionally via resolve_file_stat (not resolve_size), rewrites the get_size fallback to distinguish a failed stat (seekable.is_none() → 0, uncached) from a pipe (→ Infinity), and makes resolve_file_stat reset the store's cached mode/max_size/seekable/last_modified on any stat error. Fixes #4930 and #22484.
Security risks
None identified. No untrusted-input parsing, no auth/crypto, no new syscall surface (still bun_sys::stat/fstat). The change reduces a silent-wrong-result class: reads on a handle whose stat failed now open the file and report the real errno instead of returning empty.
Level of scrutiny
High. Blob.rs is the backing for Bun.file(), which is used by Bun.serve file responses, Bun.write file-to-file, Response/Request bodies, FormData, structured clone, and streams. The PR description enumerates these callers and I spot-checked the claim that resolved_size() has one caller (ByteBlobLoader::setup) and that get_exists routes through get_exists_sync. I also traced the get_size cases before/after — behaviour is preserved for every reachable state, with the one intended difference that a failed stat's 0 is now returned without being cached on self.size.
Other factors
- The PR is described as a subset of #33659, taken from review feedback on #25702. A maintainer is best placed to decide whether to land this subset now or fold it into #33659.
exists()now stats on every call. That matches its doc comment and the CodeRabbit-recorded learning from #33659 that per-access stat is intentional, but it is a user-visible perf change for hot loops.- All CodeRabbit and comment-cop threads are resolved; the bug-hunting pass found nothing. Tests use

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it changes the caching semantics of Bun.file()'s stat/size machinery in Blob.rs (exists() now re-stats on every call, resolve_size() no longer caches 0 on a failed stat, resolve_file_stat() now resets cached fields on error), a human look would still be worthwhile — particularly to reconcile with the broader #33659.
What was reviewed:
- Traced
get_sizefallback: failed-stat still reports 0, pipes still report Infinity, seekable files unchanged. - Verified

tempDir+describe.concurrentper the file's convention.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR touches two files: src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs (5 functions changed: get_exists_sync, get_size, resolve_size, resolved_size, resolve_file_stat) and test/js/bun/util/bun-file.test.ts (8 new tests in a describe.concurrent block). It fixes three linked issues (#4930, #22484, #23902) by stopping a failed stat from being cached as "size 0" on a BunFile handle, and by making exists() re-stat on every call instead of answering from the first result.
Security risks
None identified. The change does not touch input parsing, auth, permissions, or path handling. It only alters when a stat result is cached on an in-memory blob and what is reported for a failed stat. The error-handling change (resetting cached fields on Err(_)) makes state more conservative, not less.
Level of scrutiny
This is a semantic behavior change to a core runtime API used by reads, streams, Bun.write file-to-file copy, HTTP serving (HEAD content-length), FormData, and structured clone. The PR description audits those callers, and I spot-checked the resolved_size() claim (only ByteBlobLoader calls it, only on the Bytes arm) and the get_size fallback logic (failed stat → 0 uncached, pipe → Infinity, both preserved). The change looks correct and the tests are thorough. But it is not a mechanical or obvious change: exists() now stats unconditionally (a per-call syscall where before it could answer from cache), and resolve_file_stat now clears previously-good cached metadata on any stat failure. Those are the intended fixes, but they are the kind of policy decision a maintainer should confirm — especially given the PR itself notes it is a subset of #33659, an open broader redesign of the same machinery.
Other factors
All prior bot review threads (CodeRabbit, github-actions comment-cop) are resolved, with fix commits (b67b250, e071cc2, 2920f8f) that shortened comments and tightened the ENOTDIR assertion per platform. The bug-hunting system found nothing. There are no prior human reviews and no prior claude[bot] reviews. The tests follow harness conventions (tempDir with await using matching the file, isWindows branch for the ENOTDIR/ENOENT platform difference, hermetic, no sleeps). Given the scope (core Blob.rs) and the relationship to an in-flight broader PR, deferring to a human is the right call.

I reviewed this PR and the bug-hunting pass found no issues. Because it changes user-visible Bun.file() stat-caching semantics (exists() re-stats every call, failed stats now clear the store cache, resolve_size() leaves the size unresolved) and the description explicitly scopes what is fixed here vs. deferred to #37877/#33360/#33652, a maintainer sign-off on that slicing would be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
get_sizefallthrough for failed-stat vs. pipe — missing file still reports 0, pipe still Infinity, 0-byte regular file unchanged.- Callers of
resolve_size()that now seeMAX_SIZEinstead of 0 for a missing file:get_size_for_bindings(still returnsu64::MAX), the HEAD path inRequestContext.rs(stillcontent-length: 0), structured-clone serialize (size is written before the resolve). resolved_size()File-arm change is unreachable in practice —ByteBlobLoader::setupis only called forBytesstores viafrom_blob_copy_ref.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Two files: src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs (four functions — get_exists_sync, get_size, resolve_size, resolved_size, plus resolve_file_stat) and 10 new tests in test/js/bun/util/bun-file.test.ts. The core change: a failed stat no longer caches size = 0 on the blob, exists() calls resolve_file_stat on every invocation instead of once, and resolve_file_stat now resets the cached mode/max_size/seekable/last_modified on the Err arm so a store that once had a good stat behaves like a fresh handle after the file disappears.
Security risks
None identified. This is metadata caching for lazily-opened files; no auth, crypto, or untrusted-input parsing is touched. The change moves in the direction of surfacing real errnos on later reads rather than silently returning empty content.
Level of scrutiny
Moderate-to-high. Bun.file is a hot, widely-used API and resolve_size() has several callers (structured clone, FormData, HEAD in RequestContext, get_size_for_bindings, wasm streaming, Body) that now see MAX_SIZE instead of 0 for a failed stat. I traced the ones the description called out and they map MAX_SIZE to the same observable result as before (0 content-length, ENOENT on open, u64::MAX for bindings). The resolved_size() File arm is only reachable via ByteBlobLoader::setup, which from_blob_copy_ref invokes exclusively for Bytes stores.
Other factors
The description is explicit about which linked issues this closes (#22484, #23902) versus leaves to #37877 (a resolved size from a successful stat still caps the file-to-file copy) and #33360/#33652. #33659 was closed in favor of this narrower shape. That is a design-scoping decision — whether .size/.lastModified should re-stat on every read, and whether exists() should refresh the store's max_size cache (it does) — that a maintainer should confirm rather than an automated approval. All prior review threads on the PR (coderabbit, comment-cop) are resolved; no human reviewer has weighed in yet.
Resolve the two conflicts in src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs from #40478, which replaced StoreRef::data_mut() with Store::data_mut(store) and StoreRef with RefPtr<Store>. The PR logic is unchanged.

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it changes the caching semantics of Bun.file()'s stat/size resolution — a shared helper with several downstream consumers (HEAD in RequestContext, FormData, structuredClone, write_file_internal, ByteBlobLoader) — a human look would still be worthwhile.
Checked: get_exists_sync now stats via resolve_file_stat without touching self.size, so a failed stat leaves the blob unresolved and mode = 0 yields false; the new get_size MAX_SIZE branch correctly maps seekable.is_none() → 0 and pipes → Infinity; resolved_size()'s file arm is only reached from ByteBlobLoader::setup under Data::Bytes, so its changed fallthrough is dead in practice; the Err arm of resolve_file_stat resets to fresh-store defaults so ISREG(0) is false and the next resolve_size re-stats.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Two files: src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs (~70 lines net) and test/js/bun/util/bun-file.test.ts (+210 lines, 10 new tests). The runtime change touches four functions on Blob: get_exists_sync, get_size, resolve_size, resolved_size, and the free function resolve_file_stat. The core semantic shift is that a failed stat no longer caches size = 0 on the blob (it stays MAX_SIZE = unresolved), and exists() re-stats on every call instead of reusing the first result. resolve_file_stat also gained an Err arm that resets the store's cached fields to fresh defaults, and its path/fd branches were deduplicated.
Security risks
None identified. No new untrusted-input parsing, no new allocation sizing from external data, no auth/crypto. The change narrows what gets cached; it does not widen any trust boundary.
Level of scrutiny
High. Bun.file() is one of the most widely used runtime APIs, and resolve_size() feeds the byte limit into reads, copies, HEAD content-length, FormData, and structured clone. The PR description carefully enumerates each of these callers and how they handle the newly-possible MAX_SIZE after resolve, and I spot-checked ByteBlobLoader::setup (only reached for byte stores, so the file-arm change in resolved_size is consistency-only) and from_blob_copy_ref (file arm reads blob.size directly, already handles MAX_SIZE). But this is exactly the class of change — a shared helper's contract shifting from "0 on failure" to "unresolved on failure" — where a maintainer who knows every consumer should confirm nothing was missed.
Other factors
- CI on head 8c039e1: 178/179 green; the one red job fails identically on main and is unrelated.
- All coderabbit and comment-cop threads are resolved. One comment-cop re-fired after the merge on the pre-existing Stacked-Borrows comment at line 2252-2257; the diff only rewords one clause of it, and robobun already noted this predates the PR.
- Test coverage is thorough (create-after-miss, delete-after-hit, ENOTDIR, fd variant, slice, structuredClone, both #4930 copy shapes, #23902 grow-after-exists), all verified to fail on 1.4.0.
- The PR explicitly scopes out related-but-separate fixes (#37877, #33360, #33652) with a clear boundary.

After the file is written,exists()staysfalse,text()is"", andBun.write(handle, Bun.file(src))writes 0 bytes (CallingBunFile.existsmakesBun.writewrite nothing #4930).resolve_size()(src/runtime/webcore/Blob.rs:2296before this change) cachessize = 0on the blob when the stat fails. Every read and copy then uses that 0 as its length.exists()also kept its first successful stat. A deleted file stayedtrue(await BunFile.exists()does not change #22484), and the cached size capped later reads:text()afterwrite()returned the old length (BunFile.text()does not return correct content after BunFile.write()#23902).Fix
resolve_size()leaves the size unresolved when the stat fails. The next access stats again..sizestill reports0for a missing file. Pipes still reportInfinity.exists()stats on every call and no longer resolves the blob size. So it cannot cap later reads or copies, andexists()on a slice works.resolve_file_stat()clears the cached stat fields when the stat fails, so a deleted file (or a closed fd) reportsfalse, and.sizestats again.test/js/bun/util/bun-file.test.ts(10 new tests, all fail on 1.4.0) and the repros from CallingBunFile.existsmakesBun.writewrite nothing #4930,await BunFile.exists()does not change #22484, BunFile.text()does not return correct content after BunFile.write()#23902 and Bun.write do short write when copying file #22456. The neighbour suites are listed in Notes.Background
BunFileis aBlobwhose store points at a path or fd. The store caches one stat. The blob has its ownoffsetandsizewindow.size == MAX_SIZEmeans "not resolved", and reads treat it as the whole file.resolve_size()copies the stat size into the window. fix(blob): don't set size to 0 for non-seekable files in resolveSize() #27852 stopped it from caching 0 for pipes. This change does the same for a failed stat.Blobcache and truncation inBun.write#25702 asked for this shape. Bun.file: make exists()/size/lastModified reflect the current filesystem state #33659, a broader version that re-stats on every.sizeand.lastModifiedread, is closed in favour of this PR.Fixes #22484
Fixes #23902
#4930: its
exists()and missing-destination repros pass here.Bun.write(handle, Bun.file(src))after.sizeon an existing destination is still capped. #37877 removes that cap, so #4930 is left to that PR.Notes
Behaviour before and after, same handle:

Two consequences of "like a fresh store":.lastModifiedof a deleted file is the same value a fresh handle reports (the sentinel that #33652 changes to 0), and awrite()through a handle whose last stat failed takes the same path a fresh handle takes. The two write paths create files with different default modes (WRITE_PERMISSIONS, 0o664, in the fast path,DEFAULT_PERMISSIONinWriteFile, see #32885). That difference exists before this change and is only visible with a permissive umask.Not changed here: a size that was resolved from a successful stat stays on the handle. So
.size, then append to the file, then.text()still reads the old length, andBun.write(handle, Bun.file(src))after.sizeon an existing destination still copies the old length (#37877).exists()fills the store's stat cache, so a.sizeread afterexists()reports the size from that stat, as before. #33360 stops the read paths from using that size as a limit. A.sizeor.lastModifiedthat re-stats on every read was proposed in #33659 and has no open PR now.Known interaction:
write_file_internal(Blob.rs:4907) resetslast_modifiedwhen a write starts, so that the next.lastModifiedread stats again. Any stat during the write consumes that reset. Before this change a.lastModifiedread during the write did that (40 of 40 runs stale afterwards on 1.4.0). With this changeexists()during the write does it too (38 of 40 runs). The fix for both is the one the comment at that line describes: reset when the write completes. It is not part of this change.Callers of
resolve_size()that now see a still-unresolved size for a missing file: the HEAD path inRequestContext.rsalready mapsMAX_SIZEtocontent-length: 0.from_blob_copy_refmaps it to no limit, and the open fails with ENOENT as before. FormData passes it toreadFile, which opens first and fails with ENOENT as before. Structured clone writes the size before it resolves. The file-to-file copy inwrite_file_internalpassesdestination_blob.sizewithout resolving it, so a destination that went throughexists()no longer caps the copy (#4930, #22456).ByteBlobLoaderis the only user ofresolved_size(), and only for byte stores. Its file arm was changed to matchresolve_size().The tests of #33659 were run against this build before it was closed. Its
exists()cases pass. Its.sizeand.lastModifiedrefresh cases, itsslice(-N)case and itslastModifiedsentinel cases (#33652) fail, as expected: they are outside this change.Suites run with the debug build:
