Conversation
… and promises that never settle
A macro produces a value for one call site. Each way it could instead take
down the process that runs the build, leave bad output, or stall the build is
now a located build error:
- process.exit(), process.reallyExit() and process.abort() threw nothing and
exited the process, including the program that called Bun.build(). In macro
mode they throw a TypeError.
- A returned Error was printed and the call was left in the output with its
import removed: an unbound reference at runtime. It fails the expansion like
a throw does.
- A thrown exception surfaced as the engine's Exception cell and was reported
as "cannot coerce Exception (JSType(0)) to Bun's AST". It is reported with
its message and stack, and a throw while the return value is converted (a
getter) is reported the same way.
- A sparse array ([,,1] with length = 1e9, a[2**32 - 2] = 1, an arguments
object with its length overwritten) was expanded index by index into
undefined elements until the process ran out of memory. An array is accepted
only when JSC backs its length with storage; otherwise the error names the
length and the element count.
- A promise that can never settle (new Promise(() => {}), a macro module whose
top-level await never resolves) spun the parse forever at 100% CPU. The wait
now gives up when nothing keeps the event loop alive, the condition under
which a program would have exited with the promise unsettled. JSC's deferred
work tickets count as pending so an Atomics.waitAsync timeout still resolves.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the has_pending_work refactor for the regular loop's exit condition — is_event_loop_alive still calls has_pending_work_excluding_immediates without the JSC-ticket term, so the main-loop exit semantics are unchanged. I also looked at whether Bun__JSObject__indexedStorageCovers could reject legitimate dense inputs — new Array(n), doubles, and arguments all take the butterfly/internalLength path and are covered by the positive test case.
Extended reasoning...
The two candidates in the ruled-out list were worth recording: the has_pending_work split preserves the pre-existing is_event_loop_alive behavior (JSC deferred tickets are only added in the new has_pending_work() wrapper, not in the _excluding_immediates path the main loop uses), so a program awaiting only Atomics.waitAsync at top level still exits as before. The sparse-array guard's positive path was also checked against the shapes JSC actually backs with storage. The remaining concerns — cross-loop ticket counting, VM-wide state leaking into macro idle detection, and the no-timeout Atomics.waitAsync spin — are covered by the inline findings.

…hint to a note, keep a stop from reading as idle - process.reallyExit() inside a macro names itself in the TypeError. - The sparse array error drops "Please" and carries the remedy on a note line. - wait_for_promise_until_idle re-checks the stop conditions after the tick that may have requested them, so a stop is never reported as Idle. The macro module load hands the wait outcome to Macro::init: only Idle is the top-level-await diagnostic, a stop is a plain JSError. - Bun__JSCTaskScheduler__hasPendingWork counts only tickets tagged with the VM's current loop kind: a ticket the program registered on the regular loop cannot keep a macro's wait alive. - Shorter comments.

Thanks — the follow-up commits address everything I raised: Bun__JSCTaskScheduler__hasPendingWork now filters tickets by the current loop kind, process.reallyExit() names itself in its error, the sparse-array remedy moved to a note: line, the test normalizes \ → / before asserting [dir]/index.ts, and wait_for_promise_until_idle re-checks the stop conditions after tick() so a stop is never reported as idle. I re-reviewed at ca9b16b and didn't find new issues.
Given the surface — new event-loop wait primitive, JSC butterfly/ArrayStorage inspection in Bun__JSObject__indexedStorageCovers, and behavior changes to process.exit/abort gated on loop kind — a human look is still worthwhile. The Atomics.waitAsync-with-no-timeout hang remains as noted in the PR description; that's acknowledged as out of scope.

Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR hardens macro execution against hostile inputs across four failure modes: process.exit/reallyExit/abort now throw when the VM's current loop is Macro; a returned Error or a throw during coercion is reported via uncaught_exception and fails the expansion; sparse arrays whose length outruns backed storage are rejected via a new Bun__JSObject__indexedStorageCovers C++ helper inspecting butterfly indexing shapes; and a new wait_for_promise_until_idle primitive returns Unsettled::Idle when nothing keeps the loop alive so never-settling promises fail the build instead of spinning. Ancillary changes add asan::lsan_ignore_object for tagged-pointer-owned SavedSourceMap entries and refactor is_event_loop_alive_excluding_immediates into a shared helper. Twelve new test cases in macro-test.test.ts cover each mode.
Security risks
Macros already run arbitrary user code at build time on the transpiling thread's VM; nothing here widens that surface. The new guards narrow it: process.exit no longer takes down a Bun.build() caller, and adversarial length values no longer drive unbounded allocation. Bun__JSObject__indexedStorageCovers reads JSC-internal structures but does not enter user JS (no getters, no coercions), so it does not need exception scopes. The isRunningMacro check reads VM state only. No new untrusted-input parsing, no auth/crypto/permission paths.
Level of scrutiny
High. The change touches the event loop's liveness accounting (has_pending_work, is_event_loop_alive_excluding_immediates), adds a new wait primitive with its own stop/idle ordering, inspects JSC butterfly/ArrayStorage/arguments internals directly in C++, and alters process.exit behavior conditionally. The is_event_loop_alive_excluding_immediates refactor is arithmetically equivalent to the original (sum-of-usize > 0 ↔ any disjunct true), but any drift there would affect the main loop's exit condition, not just macros. The JSC deferred-work check now takes the scheduler lock and iterates both ticket maps per idle probe — correct, but a maintainer familiar with JSCTaskScheduler's locking should confirm that's acceptable on the macro wait path.
Other factors
All five points from my earlier review were addressed in ec34aa4 and ca9b16b: loop-kind filtering in Bun__JSCTaskScheduler__hasPendingWork, the reallyExit message naming the right API, the sparse-array remedy on a note: line without "Please", \ → / normalization in the test's stderr before path assertions, and the stop re-check after tick() in wait_for_promise_until_idle. The remaining Atomics.waitAsync-no-timeout case is explicitly called out in the PR description as pre-existing and left for a follow-up requiring a deadline policy. Test coverage is thorough (both bun build CLI and Bun.build() API, dense-array negative cases, TLA vs. returned-promise stall paths, Atomics.waitAsync with timeout still awaited) and uses test.concurrent with a subprocess kill bound so regressions fail rather than hang CI. The PR description notes overlap with #40059 and #40250, which a maintainer should coordinate.
…he stack Run::run and Run::coerce recurse once per nesting level of the returned value, on a 4 MB bundler pool thread. A value nested 10000 levels deep overflowed the stack and the build died with SIGSEGV and no message. The walk now carries the parser's StackCheck and stops with a located error once the headroom is gone.

…, fail later uses of a macro that did not load, refuse process.kill on the current process A file loaded with require() runs its macros in the program's own VM. Every macro failure was reported through uncaught_exception or unhandled_rejection, which there is the fatal-error path: exit code 1 and an abandoned event loop, even when the program catches the failed require(). The error is now printed with run_error_handler, and the returned promise is marked handled before the wait so the rejection tracker does not report it a second time. This covers a throw, a returned Error, a BuildMessage or ResolveMessage, a rejected promise, and a macro module that throws while it loads. A macro whose load failed stayed in the table as a disabled entry, and every later call returned the caller unchanged: the call was left in the output with its import gone. A disabled entry now fails the expansion with a located error. process.kill() with a signal aimed at the current process throws in a macro, like process.exit() and process.abort(). A macro can still signal a child.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline nit, I re-read the pushes since my last pass: throws, returned Errors and rejections now go through run_error_handler instead of the fatal uncaught_exception path, later uses of a macro whose load failed produce a located error, and Bun__JSCTaskScheduler__hasPendingWork filters tickets by the current loop kind after the merge with main's PendingWork struct.
I also checked a host program that keeps its own loop alive (Bun.serve, setInterval) and then require()s a file whose macro never settles: has_pending_work reads the shared platform loop, so that wait still spins — the same as on base, not made worse here.
Extended reasoning...
This run's inline finding is a nit about process-group signals in Process_functionReallyKill; the note above records only what else was examined and ruled out. The event-loop, VM, C++ binding and macro-expansion changes are substantive enough that a human should still look, and the prior-round feedback was verified from the diff at src/js_parser_jsc/Macro.rs, src/jsc/bindings/JSCTaskScheduler.cpp and src/jsc/bindings/BunProcess.cpp rather than from thread-resolution metadata.

Review round of 2026-09-18 (e37bf9d): a file loaded with
require()runs its macros in the program's own VM, so reporting a macro failure throughuncaught_exception/unhandled_rejectionset exit code 1 andunhandled_error_counter, and the program's loop was abandoned even though it caught the failedrequire(). All six report sites (throw, throw while converting, returnedError,BuildMessage/ResolveMessage, rejected promise, module load rejection) now print withrun_error_handler. The returned promise is marked handled before the wait becausetick()ends withhandle_rejected_promises().MacroContext::callno longer returns the caller for a disabled entry.Process_functionReallyKillrefuses a signal above 0 aimed at the current process (pid 0, -1, own pid, and-getpgrp()throughkillReachesThisProcess, ac9730f); signal 0 and signals to children still work.Not caused by this PR: on release builds a macro result nested a few thousand levels deep passes the stack check (release frames are small), is printed, and then
bun runspins in JSC's parser. The same happens with no macro:(0, eval)("var x = " + "{v:".repeat(2900) + "1" + "}".repeat(2900))never returns, while depth 2850 parses in 13 ms.parseAssignmentExpressionre-parses a failed{/[expression as a destructuring pattern even when the failure was "Stack exhausted", so each level past the limit descends twice. That needs a WebKit change and is tracked separately.Known limits, not changed here: the platform loop has one
activecount shared by the VM's two embedded loops, so in a program (not a bundler worker) that has a listening server or a ref'd timer, a never-settling macro promise in arequire()d file still waits as before; the shared count can delay the error but cannot report a promise that something could still settle. A dense array has no element cap: it already occupies 8 bytes per slot in the JS heap, so the AST stays a constant factor of memory the macro paid for. Also: a frozen or sealed array that has holes is refused (its elements live in the sparse map and the holes have no storage; any fixed allowance for unbacked slots reopens the growth in aggregate). Theprocess.*guards test the loop kind, not whether a macro frame is on the stack, because an async macro's continuation runs inside the wait's tick. After a macro awaitsWebAssembly.compile()on a bundler worker, that worker's loop keeps a stale keep-alive (the ticket is ref'd on the macro loop and released on the regular loop), so a later never-settling macro promise on the same worker still hangs; that bookkeeping is outside this diff and is tracked separately.Reproduction on stock 1.4.1 (
