timer: remove unsafe from the timer module

[Jarred-Sumner]

What

Same programme as #40055 / #40135 / #40136 / #40139, applied to timers. src/runtime/timer/: mod.rs 89 → 0, timer_object_internals.rs 54 → 0, WTFTimer.rs 28 → 0, Timer.rs 15 → 0, ImmediateObject.rs 4 → 0, EventLoopDelayMonitor.rs 5 → 0, DateHeaderTimer.rs 3 → 0 (each of the first three keeps one unsafe extern "C" { safe fn … } decl for a Bun C++ symbol). The unsafe that remains for timers is the tag→container recovery in src/runtime/dispatch.rs and the intrusive heap internals in bun_io/bun_event_loop, which is where it belongs.

How:

• The heap owns membership. bun_io::heap: links are private Cells, HeapNode::heap(&self), Intrusive is &self-based; only insert/remove stay unsafe fn (liveness). bun_event_loop::TimerHeap wraps it for EventLoopTimer: it is the sole writer of a slot's links and in_heap, so double-insert / remove-from-the-wrong-heap are refused (debug-asserted) instead of corrupting the heap; insert/remove/delete_min/peek/find_max/count/to_vec are safe.
• EventLoopTimer: tag/heap/in_heap are private (new(tag, state, next), tag(), in_heap()); pub unsafe trait TimerOwner is emitted by impl_timer_owner! (the invocation asserts: slot tagged for its dispatch arm, unlinked before drop/move); TimerRef is the handle timer::All traffics in — built from (&Owner, field accessor) with whole-owner provenance (asserts the slot lies inside the owner), exposes deadline/state only, no Deref, no access to tag or links. EventLoopTimer::fire and the __bun_fire_timer extern are gone; dispatch::fire_timer(TimerRef, ..) is the one container-of site.
• TimeoutObject / ImmediateObject derive RefCounted, hold the armed-timer ref in heap_ref: Cell<Option<RefPtr<Self>>> (set where ref_() was, released where deref() was), share trait TimerObject, and their host fns that may release refs take this: ThisPtr<Self> (codegen support cherry-picked byte-for-byte from socket, timer, sql, redis: replace unsafe with typed ownership #40139). Maps is typed (IdMap<T> = ArrayHashMap<i32, BackRef<T, Mut>>).
• timer::All is &self throughout (jsc_hooks::timer_all(); timer_all_mut removed); WTFTimer externs, Bun__Timer__getNextID, Bun__internal_ensureDateHeaderTimerIsEnabled, Timer_{enable,disable}EventLoopDelayMonitoring are HOST_EXPORTs; FakeTimers is &self; bun_libuv_sys::Timer::{get_due_in, update_loop_time}; JsCell::from_mut.

Two pre-existing bugs surfaced by the stricter heap: DevServerMemoryVisualizerTick's fire arm never cleared its slot's state, so the next update() called remove() on an unlinked node (popped an unrelated root in release / asserted in debug) — now a refused no-op; WTFTimer::is_active/seconds_until_timer read the slot unlocked while GC threads write it under the lock — now locked.

Testing

Debug+ASAN: web timers (setTimeout/setInterval/setImmediate/setImmediate2/microtask/clearImmediate-gc/timer-gc-roots/timer-heap-race/performance-entries), js/node/timers, 36 test-timers-*.js node parallel tests, fake-timers (516), in-process-cron, sleep, bun-serve-date, perf_hooks + test-performance-eventloopdelay.js, abort, cli/test/isolation, socket, node-http, fetch, worker, serve — all pass except cases that fail identically on a main debug build (the four RSS-threshold timer "leak" fixtures whose isASAN check keys on the executable name — native TimeoutObject counts verified at 0 after GC; serve uid-0 port case; fetch root-permission cases; the LSAN dispatchAfter suppression that needs a symbolizer; the worker message-flood test whose 30 ms budget is shorter than debug worker startup). Hand-driven: clear/refresh/_repeat-inside-callback, 1e5 immediates, unref exit, Bun.sleep, AbortSignal.timeout, numeric-id clear, Symbol.dispose. clippy clean on every touched crate; rust-check-all windows-msvc + apple-darwin clean.

Walkthrough

The pull request refactors Bun’s timer subsystem around shared timer state, typed TimerRef handles, interior-mutability-based heaps, typed dispatch, and reference-counted timer objects. Runtime timer clients now use the shared registry instead of mutable raw-pointer access.

Changes

Timer subsystem refactor

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Heap and timer-reference contracts src/io/heap.rs, src/event_loop/EventLoopTimer.rs, src/install/..., src/jsc/AbortSignal.rs	Intrusive heaps use shared references and Cell-backed links. TimerRef, TimerHeap, and TimerOwner manage embedded timer slots and heap membership.
Typed host receivers src/jsc/host_fn.rs, src/jsc_macros/lib.rs, src/codegen/generate-classes.ts	Shared-this thunks use pointer-based helpers. HostReceiver supports shared references and ThisPtr receivers.
Timer object ownership and dispatch src/runtime/timer/*, src/runtime/dispatch.rs, src/libuv_sys/libuv.rs	Timer objects use RefPtr, JsCell, BackRef, and typed VM references. Timer firing, cancellation, rescheduling, and WTF timer handling use typed paths.
Shared timer registry integrations src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs, src/runtime/api/*, src/runtime/bake/*, src/runtime/dns_jsc/*, src/runtime/node/*, src/runtime/socket/*, src/runtime/test_runner/*	Timer clients use timer_all() and TimerRef for insertion, removal, updates, teardown, and fake-timer execution.

Suggested reviewers: robobun, alii, dylan-conway

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 63302

The timer refactor still contains concrete merge-readiness risks: some ThisPtr callback paths can fail to compile, uninitialized timers can crash in release builds, and numeric timer IDs can cancel the wrong timer type. These issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Verified ef8905b addressed the three earlier comments: JsCell::from_mut is deleted; drain_due_wtf_timers now calls fire_wtf_timer directly and the wtf_arm/wtf_disarm tag asserts moved under the lock; All::remove is a no-op for InHeap::None and the DevServerMemoryVisualizerTick arm sets FIRED, so the two state == ACTIVE-gated remove() sites in hmr_socket.rs/DevServer::drop are now harmless.

Extended reasoning...

The follow-up commit ef8905b resolves all three items from the earlier review pass. Confirmed by diffing c241d54..ef8905b and re-checking the current tree: src/ptr/js_cell.rs no longer defines from_mut; dispatch.rs gained fire_wtf_timer (called directly from drain_due_wtf_timers, so the WTF slot is never read unlocked to dispatch on tag) and the DevServerMemoryVisualizerTick arm now sets state = FIRED; timer/mod.rs moved the debug_assert!(timer.tag() == WTFTimer) inside the wtf_timers lock in both wtf_arm and wtf_disarm, and All::remove's InHeap::None arm is now {} (no debug_assert), which makes the remaining state == ACTIVE guards at hmr_socket.rs:308-314 and DevServer::drop safe even though they weren't switched to in_heap(). The one remaining inline nit (now-unreachable WTFTimer arm in fire_timer and the write-only repeat field) is a hygiene byproduct of that same fix and has no runtime effect. This PR remains a large, memory-safety-sensitive refactor of the intrusive timer heap, refcount ownership, and cross-thread WTFTimer paths, so human review is still warranted.

[claude]

c938c20 addresses the last round (WTFTimer arm now unreachable!(), stale doc comment updated, write-only repeat field dropped) — nothing further from the automated pass. Given the scope (intrusive heap rewrite to Cell-based links, the new TimerOwner/TimerRef/TimerHeap layer, the TimeoutObject/ImmediateObject refcount model moving to heap_ref: Cell<Option<RefPtr<Self>>>, and the cross-thread WTFTimer slot-access rules), a human look is still warranted.

Checked this run: the fire refcount balance around _pin = ref_guard() vs. heap_ref for the setInterval FIRED/ACTIVE arms and the t._repeat promotion path matches the old ref_()/deref() pairing; All::remove's InHeap::None no-op now covers every state == ACTIVE guard site; for_each's explicit-stack traversal is behavior-equivalent to the old recursion for count/find_max.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR is the timer-module instalment of a broader unsafe-removal programme (#40055/#40135/#40136/#40139). It touches 35 files across four layers: the intrusive pairing heap in bun_io (links become private Cells, HeapNode::heap goes &self, HeapContext::less takes &T), a new TimerHeap/TimerRef/TimerOwner layer in bun_event_loop that owns membership bookkeeping and refuses double-insert/wrong-heap-remove, the timer::All state moving to &self + interior mutability throughout, and TimeoutObject/ImmediateObject switching from manual ref_()/deref() to #[derive(RefCounted)] with the scheduled-timer ref held in heap_ref: Cell<Option<RefPtr<Self>>>. ~20 call sites (subprocess, cron, DevServer, DNS, QUIC, sockets, test runner, fake timers) are updated to construct TimerRefs. Codegen and host_fn gain ThisPtr<Self>-receiver support so host methods that may drop the last ref don't hold &self.

Security risks

None user-facing. The risk surface here is memory safety: intrusive-heap link integrity, refcount balance on every fire/cancel/refresh path, and cross-thread access to the WTFTimer slot. The PR tightens all three (heap refuses misuse instead of corrupting; ref ownership is a typed Option<RefPtr> instead of implicit; WTF slot reads now happen only under the lock or not at all).

Level of scrutiny

High — this is core event-loop machinery. drain_timers/fire run for every setTimeout/setInterval in every Bun process, the intrusive heap backs both timers and lifecycle-script scheduling, and the refcount transitions are the exact class REVIEW.md flags most often. The design choices (why TimerRef carries whole-owner provenance via project, why heap_ref is a Cell<Option<RefPtr>> rather than a bare count, why WTF timers get their own fire_wtf_timer path) are sound but non-obvious enough that a maintainer should confirm they match the direction of the earlier PRs in the series.

Other factors

Three prior review rounds on this PR were all addressed promptly (ef8905b, c938c20). The PR description lists extensive debug+ASAN test coverage across web/node timers, fake-timers, cron, perf_hooks, abort, sockets, workers. No new findings this run; the specific concerns I re-checked (setInterval refcount balance in fire, the remove no-op semantics vs. every state == ACTIVE guard, for_each traversal equivalence) held up. Deferring solely on scope, not on any open concern.

[claude]

I re-reviewed after 0b98025 (which addresses the last leftover-let _ = state nit in auto_tick_active) and found no further issues — all four earlier rounds of feedback are now resolved in the diff. Given the scope (new TimerOwner/TimerRef/TimerHeap abstraction, the &self-only All, the heap_ref: Cell<Option<RefPtr<Self>>> refcount rework, cross-thread WTFTimer locking, and the codegen/host_fn macro changes for ThisPtr<Self> receivers), a human pass over the design is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed: the bun_io::heap Cell-link rewrite for behaviour preservation vs. the old &mut version; TimerHeap's in_heap bookkeeping so double-insert/wrong-heap-remove refuse instead of corrupting; the heap_ref acquire/release balance across every fire/cancel/reschedule/run_immediate_task path against the old ref_()/deref() sites; TimerRef::project's provenance re-derivation; and that every WTF-slot access is now under wtf_timers.lock() or address-only after ef8905b.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

35 files. The core is src/runtime/timer/ (mod.rs, timer_object_internals.rs, WTFTimer.rs, Timer.rs, TimeoutObject.rs, ImmediateObject.rs, DateHeaderTimer.rs, EventLoopDelayMonitor.rs) plus the intrusive-heap primitive in src/io/heap.rs and its typed wrapper TimerHeap in src/event_loop/EventLoopTimer.rs. src/runtime/dispatch.rs is the tag→container_of match that fires timers. Everything else is call-site migration (*mut EventLoopTimer → TimerRef, timer_all_mut() → timer_all()) across ~20 timer owners (Subprocess, DevServer, cron, DNS, QUIC, sockets, test runner, …), plus codegen support (generate-classes.ts, jsc_macros/lib.rs, host_fn.rs) for ThisPtr<Self> as a host-fn receiver.

Security risks

None identified. This is an internal memory-safety refactor with no user-facing API surface, no parsing of untrusted input, no auth/crypto/permissions. The risk class is UAF/aliasing/refcount-imbalance, not security in the injection/bypass sense.

Level of scrutiny

High. This is production-critical hot-path code: every setTimeout/setInterval/setImmediate, the event-loop poll deadline, the HTTP Date: header timer, and JSC's GC scheduling timers all flow through it. The refactor replaces raw-pointer refcounting (ref_()/deref()) with RefPtr held in a Cell, replaces &mut All with &self + interior mutability throughout, and rewrites the intrusive pairing heap to use Cell links so it never forms &mut T. Each of those is a place where a subtle mismatch (a missed deref, a &mut held across re-entry, a heap link written outside TimerHeap) would be a UAF or a hang. The PR also introduces cross-cutting abstractions (TimerOwner/TimerRef, HostReceiver) that a maintainer should sign off on.

Other factors

Four prior review rounds surfaced: (1) two memory_visualizer_timer guards that would still debug-assert on remove-after-fire — fixed by making All::remove a safe no-op for unlinked slots and marking the fire arm FIRED; (2) an unlocked t.tag() read on a WTF slot in fire_timer — fixed by a dedicated fire_wtf_timer that never reads the slot, with the tag asserts moved under the lock; (3) dead JsCell::from_mut — deleted; (4) the now-unreachable WTFTimer arm in fire_timer and write-only WTFTimer::repeat — replaced with unreachable!() / deleted; (5) the leftover cfg(not(unix)) suppression in auto_tick_active — deleted in 0b98025. All are confirmed present in the current diff. The PR description reports extensive debug+ASAN test coverage across web timers, node timers, fake-timers, cron, perf_hooks, abort, sockets, fetch, workers, and serve, plus rust:check-all on Windows and macOS. That said, no new automated tests ship in this PR (it is a behaviour-preserving refactor), and the TimerOwner/TimerRef design and the ThisPtr<Self>-receiver codegen change are architectural decisions that warrant maintainer review rather than bot approval.

296-306: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

The numeric-id path ignores kind, so clearImmediate(<number>) can cancel a timeout or interval.

The numeric arm resolves the id through remove_timer_by_id, which searches maps.set_timeout and maps.set_interval only, then breaks to the shared TimerObject::cancel(timer) at Line 383. It never compares kind. When kind == Kind::SetImmediate, a JS call such as clearImmediate(5) therefore cancels the setTimeout/setInterval whose id is 5. In Node.js, clearImmediate with a number is a no-op.

The object arm below already enforces the kind restriction, so only the numeric and string arms are affected.

🐛 Proposed fix: reject numeric ids for `clearImmediate`

Re the outside-diff items: numeric/string clearImmediate(id) cancelling a timeout with the same id was pre-existing (same on main and 1.4.0; Node ignores it) — fixed in 1abc4d6 with an early return for Kind::SetImmediate on non-object ids, plus a test in setImmediate.test.js that fails on 1.4.0. rust-check-all windows-msvc re-run after these edits: clean.

[claude]

I re-reviewed after the seven follow-up commits and didn't find any new bugs — all five earlier inline findings are addressed (WTFTimer now fires without reading its slot, the fire_timer WTFTimer arm is unreachable!(), the write-only repeat flag and dead JsCell::from_mut are gone, All::remove is a safe no-op for unlinked slots, and the leftover cfg(not(unix)) suppression in auto_tick_active is deleted). Given the scope — intrusive-heap rewrite, refcount ownership moves, cross-thread WTFTimer locking, ~20 container-of dispatch arms — a human pass is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed in the latest push (1abc4d6):

• clearImmediate primitive-id guard at Timer.rs:298 — placed before both the number and string branches, so clearImmediate(+t) and clearImmediate("123") no longer reach remove_timer_by_id; the object path is untouched.
• The new setImmediate.test.js case awaits real fire events via Promise.withResolvers (no sleep) and covers both numeric and string ids against both timeout and interval.
• QuicEndpoint::timer_ref() is a pure dedupe of four identical TimerRef::new sites; the WTFTimer timers field doc now states the teardown-order constraint that cancel/Drop already enforce.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR removes unsafe from the timer subsystem by introducing a TimerOwner/TimerRef/TimerHeap abstraction over the intrusive pairing heap, making EventLoopTimer's links/tag/in_heap private, moving container recovery to a single tag-dispatch site in dispatch.rs, and rewriting timer::All and timer_object_internals to traffic in TimerRef instead of *mut EventLoopTimer. About twenty timer-owning call sites (Subprocess, Cron, DevServer/HMR, DNS, QUIC, sockets, FakeTimers, AbortSignal, PackageManager, test runner, etc.) are ported to impl_timer_owner! + TimerRef. Net ~1800 lines removed. Since my last review, seven commits landed: 26bd3ab makes WTFTimer fire without reading its slot and makes All::remove a no-op for unlinked slots; b517348 makes the fire_timer WTFTimer arm unreachable!() and drops the write-only repeat flag; 7776636 removes the dead cfg(not(unix)) suppression; 8b46489/c1113589 rebase id-map/RefPtr ownership onto merged PRs; 1abc4d6 adds the clearImmediate primitive-id guard, a QuicEndpoint::timer_ref helper, and WTFTimer teardown-order docs.

Security risks

No direct security surface (auth/crypto/parsing untrusted input). The risk profile is memory safety: intrusive heap link management, container_of recovery from TimerRef, refcount balance on TimeoutObject/ImmediateObject (heap_ref: Cell<Option<RefPtr<Self>>>), and cross-thread access to WTFTimer slots under wtf_timers. The follow-up commits address the specific aliasing hazard I flagged (reading a WTFTimer slot's tag with the lock dropped) by dispatching WTF timers directly and adding an InHeap::Wtf variant, and address the unlinked-remove hazard by making All::remove a refused no-op. I did not find new issues in the latest push.

Level of scrutiny

High. This is REVIEW.md's most-blocked category — intrusive data structures, one named owner per allocation, refcounts balanced on every terminal path, re-entrancy through user JS callbacks, and cross-thread JS-heap affinity are all in play across ~4600 changed lines. The unsafe trait TimerOwner contract and the single container_of site in dispatch.rs concentrate the invariants, but each of the ~20 impl_timer_owner! sites and each dispatch arm needs to satisfy "slot tagged for its arm, unlinked before drop/move". A maintainer should sign off on the abstraction shape and spot-check a few dispatch arms end to end.

Other factors

All five of my earlier inline findings are verifiably addressed in the current diff (grepped each). The three coderabbitai threads on Timer.rs / WTFTimer.rs / endpoint.rs were resolved by a non-author after commit 1abc4d6, which directly addresses them. The PR description reports debug+ASAN passes across the timer/fake-timer/abort/serve/socket suites and rust:check-all clean on windows-msvc + apple-darwin. The new clearImmediate test follows harness conventions (awaits events, Promise.withResolvers, added to the existing file). No outstanding CHANGES_REQUESTED reviews. Not approving because the scope and memory-safety surface are well beyond the "simple, mechanical, or obvious" bar.

receiver condition, ensuring the generated call passes the ThisPtr argument
instead of using the Free arm.

In `@src/libuv_sys/libuv.rs`:
- Around line 1512-1514: Replace the debug-only loop initialization check in
both timer methods that call uv_timer_get_due_in and uv_update_time with a
release-enforced initialized-and-live-loop precondition, either by making both
methods unsafe and documenting that contract or by validating the loop before
each FFI call; prevent uninitialized timers from reaching libuv.
