There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it changes HTTP body-framing and connection-close semantics across both the native uWS layer and the node:http header renderer — including a deliberate wire-visible change to HTTP/1.0 end(data) — a human look would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
renderNativeHeaders: the new!chunkedByDefaultbranch andcanPersistgate track Node's_storeHeaderordering; explicit Content-Length still keeps keep-alive, explicit TE:chunked stays chunked but closes.HttpContext.h: theisDrainingBeforeClose()guards areIsNodeHttp-only, mirror the existingHTTP_NODE_PARSING_STOPPEDearly-return shape (includingus_socket_unref), and the post-uncorkcloseIfDoneAndMarkedmatches the existing close gates inHttpResponse.h.endWithoutBody()now setsHTTP_CONNECTION_CLOSEfor close-delimited bodies, symmetric withend().- New tests await framed responses / FIN with error handlers wired to reject, use
port: 0,Buffer.alloc, andtest.concurrent; the pipelining test asserts exact body length + tail rather than sleeping.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR makes res.useChunkedEncodingByDefault = false in node:http produce a close-delimited HTTP/1.1 response (no Content-Length, no Transfer-Encoding, Connection: close, body terminated by FIN), matching Node's _storeHeader. It touches three layers: the JS header renderer in src/js/node/_http_server.ts (adds Node's !useChunkedEncodingByDefault branch and a canPersist gate on keep-alive), the uWS HttpResponse.h (endWithoutBody() now marks HTTP_CONNECTION_CLOSE for close-delimited bodies, mirroring end()), HttpResponseData.h (new isDrainingBeforeClose() predicate), and HttpContext.h (refuses to dispatch a request pipelined behind a response that will close the connection, and closes after uncork if drained). Thirteen new concurrent tests assert exact wire bytes against Node v26.3.0 output.
Security risks
HTTP response framing is security-adjacent: getting the boundary between a close-delimited body and a following pipelined request wrong is exactly the class of bug that becomes response smuggling behind a proxy. The PR actually tightens this — previously a pipelined request behind a still-draining close-delimited response could be dispatched, resetting HTTP_CONNECTION_CLOSE and writing a second response into what the peer reads as body. The new guard drops those bytes and closes. The guard is scoped to IsNodeHttp so Bun.serve is unaffected. I did not find a way for the new predicate to fire while a legitimate response is still pending (it requires HTTP_RESPONSE_PENDING cleared). No new user-controlled input reaches native code without validation.
Level of scrutiny
This warrants human review. It is not a mechanical change: it alters connection-lifecycle state machines in hand-written C++ (socket refcounting, close sequencing, parser control flow returning nullptr from the request lambda) and intentionally changes observable wire behavior for HTTP/1.0 clients (one-shot end(data) loses its auto Content-Length). The PR description documents a 170-cell matrix comparison against Node and lists the pre-existing differences left untouched, which is reassuring, but the interaction between us_socket_unref, closeIfDoneAndMarked, and the corked/uncorked paths in HttpResponse.h is subtle enough that someone familiar with the uWS refcount model should confirm the us_socket_unref in the post-uncork branch is balanced against the entry ref.
Other factors
Test quality is high: test.concurrent, port: 0, await using server, error events wired to reject/settle, Buffer.alloc(n, fill) for the 8 MiB body, exact toEqual on {head, body, framing, connection} objects, and the probe-request approach means the tests fail fast on stock Bun rather than timing out. The _http_server.ts change is small and reads directly against Node's _storeHeader structure. The HttpContext.h additions follow the exact same shape as the adjacent HTTP_NODE_PARSING_STOPPED guard. No CODEOWNERS entry covers these paths specifically.

… closes the connection A complete response that closes the connection (socket.end() with buffered output, Connection: close, HTTP/1.0) keeps the socket open only to drain. A request parsed behind it reset the response state, dropped HTTP_CONNECTION_CLOSE and was answered. The FIN then came only with the keep-alive timeout. HttpResponseData::isDrainingBeforeClose() is the derived state (HTTP_CONNECTION_CLOSE set, HTTP_RESPONSE_PENDING clear). onData checks it before it parses and before it dispatches a request. When the dispatch check stops the parse, onData runs the close gate after the uncork, because no writable event may be left to do it. This is the gate from #42008 (ac32388), moved here so both changes share it. It replaces HTTP_NODE_PARSING_STOPPED in deferShutdownUntilResponseDrains, which also dropped the rest of a request body still in flight while the response was pending. deferShutdownUntilResponseDrains now defers on !hasFullyDrained(), so a TLS response that sits only in the ciphertext spill defers too.

…inish, lifecycle) (#43557) One pull request for the open `node:http` server pull requests. Each root cause is fixed once, and each pull request's tests are carried over. Node is the reference: every scenario was run under Node and under Bun from one script, and the outputs were compared. Fixes #4733 Fixes #18613 Fixes #40350 Fixes #43155 Fixes #43297 Fixes #43513 Fixes #43527 Fixes #25632 Fixes #31301 Fixes #43027 Fixes #43163 Fixes #43342 Fixes #43344 Fixes #43370 Fixes #43490 Fixes #43512 Fixes #43519 Each of these has a repro that is wrong on Bun 1.4.3, right on this branch, and the same as Node. | Issue | Not closed by this PR, because | | --- | --- | | #30501 (msal-node keeps Bun alive at exit) | Probably fixed. The repro copies the teardown of msal-node. The package itself was not run. | | #14430 (yarn: "does not support SSL") | Probably fixed. `response.hasOwnProperty("socket")` is now `true`. yarn itself was not run. | | #39681 (`server.setTimeout` callback after destroy) | Probably fixed. The repro is the deterministic case of #39686. The script in the issue depends on timing and on Windows. | | #43455 (`req.complete`, nine flows) | Partially addressed. Flows 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 are fixed, and flow 6 was already right. Flow 8 (a socket timeout while the body of an Upgrade request arrives) and flow 9 (a request that `stream.pipeline()` destroyed never reports `complete`) are not. Flow 4 differs only in `_readableState.ended`. | ### What changes for users | Area | Before | After (same as Node) | | --- | --- | --- | | `req.pause()` | The socket stops at once. `req.complete` stays `false` for a small body. | The body is received until the buffer is full. Then the socket stops. | | `res.end()` before the body arrives | `req` gets `'end'` and `'close'` at once, and the body is lost | The request completes when its body really ends | | `res.destroy()` in the middle of a body | `'end'` with bytes missing | `aborted`, then `ECONNRESET` | | `socket.destroy()` inside the `'request'` listener | The body that came with the head is dropped | That body is still delivered | | `'finish'` and the `end()` callback | Fire when `end()` buffers the bytes | Fire when the last bytes have left the socket | | A response that closes the connection | The server half-closes and waits for the peer | The socket closes right behind the FIN | | `'drain'` after a later write flushed the backlog | Lost. `pipe(res)` could hang. | Emitted | | A pipelined request whose body continues after the previous response ends | Body dropped, no response, `server.close()` hangs | Delivered | | CONNECT and Upgrade tunnel sockets | Keep reading when paused or full | Stop reading. `_read()` starts them again. | | A tunnel write that waits for a drain when the client goes away | Its callback, the callbacks of the writes behind it and the `end()` callback never run | They run with an error before `'close'` | | Upgrade request with a body, paused in its listener | The body flows away | The request keeps its body | | `ws` on a reused keep-alive socket | Writes after the Upgrade could stall | Sent | | A raw `socket.write()` behind a response that still drains (the 400 for a bad pipelined request, the reply of a `'clientError'` listener) | Lands in the middle of that response | Sent after it | | `server.close()` | Could report closed while connections were open | Waits for every connection. An idle tunnel does not keep the process alive. | | `closeAllConnections()` on a listening server | Also stops the listener and destroys tunnels and WebSockets | Destroys only the HTTP connections | | `Proxy-Connection: close` (node:http only) | Ignored. The connection stays open. | Ends the connection, like `Connection: close` | | A response larger than 16 KB, also in `Bun.serve` and over TLS | Up to 4 `send()` calls for each chunk. Slower than Node in most cases. | One write for the writes of one tick. 1.1x to 2.7x the requests per second of main, and faster than Node. | | `socket.destroy()` and then `res.end()` in a listener | (this PR, earlier) `req` ended as if it were complete | `'aborted'`, then `ECONNRESET` | | `emit('connection')` or http2 `allowHTTP1`: the response ends while the listener still reads the body | The rest of the body is dropped | The body is complete | | `httpValidation: "relaxed"`, `Content-Length` or `Transfer-Encoding` in trailers | Accepted | `HPE_INVALID_CONTENT_LENGTH`, `HPE_INVALID_TRANSFER_ENCODING` | | `req.complete` inside `'connect'`, and inside `'upgrade'` without a body | `false` | `true` | | `optimizeEmptyRequests`: `socket.parser.incoming` after the response | Keeps the request alive on an idle connection | `null` | | A HEAD or OPTIONS request with `Content-Length` | The body is dropped, and `req.complete` is `true` before it comes | The request has its body | | `res.end(chunk)` after the client went away | `finished` and `writableEnded` stay `false`, no `'prefinish'` | The response ends | | An HTTP/1.0 request with an `Expect` header | `100 Continue`, `'checkContinue'`, `'checkExpectation'` or a 417 | A plain `'request'` | | The idle sweep of `close()` and `closeIdleConnections()` | Could destroy a connection that was still receiving a request, or whose response was still draining | Closes only idle connections | ### Design | Piece | What it is | | --- | --- | | Request body state | `None / Pending / Complete / Aborted / Upgraded / Detached`. Only the last chunk sets `Complete`. One function, `leave_pending`, is the only other way out of `Pending`. | | Read flow control | One path: `push()` returning false stops the socket, `_read()` starts it. Both native pause buffers are removed: no read is copied and replayed. | | "This read is parsed" signal | `notifyWhenReadParsed()` sets a uws state bit. uws delivers a `readParsed` event after the read. It replaces a `setImmediate`. | | Close during a parse | One uws bit defers a close to the end of the current message. | | Response finish | A response is finished when it has ended and the socket has fully drained. | | Idle connection | One rule, `HttpResponse::closeIfIdle()`. A connection is idle when it receives no request (head or body) and no response is in flight, queued or undrained. The sweep of `close()` and `closeIdleConnections()` both use it. | | Idle tunnel | A tunnel at read EOF with nothing left to send. uws reports it to the server through the connection filter (`-3`, `+3`, `-4`). It still counts for `'close'`, but it does not hold the event loop, like a libuv handle in that state. | | Server `'close'` | One native close promise per `listen()`. `close()` records whether its sweep left nothing open. Then a `listen()` in the same tick cannot hold `'close'` back, as in `net.Server._emitCloseIfDrained`. | | Raw socket writes | While uws holds response bytes (its buffer, the zero-copy tail of a `res.write()`, the cork buffer), a raw write goes through `AsyncSocket::write`, the path a 1xx line takes. So the order on the wire is the order of the calls. | | Upgrade verdict | One scanner and one verdict, shared by the parser and the dispatcher. | | llhttp | Updated from 9.3.0 to 9.4.2, as Node v26.5.0 vendors it, plus one local patch (see below). Node v26.5.1 and later vendor 9.4.3. That update is not in this PR. | The parser changes also tighten request framing so that it agrees with llhttp in more cases. There is no new API surface. ### A pause holds from the next read The copy of the rest of a read (`nodeHttpPausedSpill`), its replay from a posted task and the nested parse are removed. Like in Node, the rest of the read that caused a pause is still parsed, and the socket stops at the next read. usockets reads up to 512 KB in one call. libuv reads 64 KB. | One paused, unread request (client sends 64 MB) | Bytes held | | --- | --- | | Node 25.6 | 131,018 | | This pull request | 524,234 | The price is in one case. A client sends 512 KB of small pipelined requests (19,418 of them) and never reads. Each handler answers with its own 64 KB body: | Handler | Runtime | Requests dispatched | RSS | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Answers at once | Node 26.3 | 2,425 | +177 MB | | Answers at once | main | 41 | +9 MB | | Answers at once | This PR | 2,425 | +171 MB | | Answers one tick later | Node 26.3 | 4,850 | +336 MB | | Answers one tick later | main | 2,426 | +181 MB | | Answers one tick later | This PR | 4,850 | +330 MB | Release builds on Linux x64. This PR now does what Node does. main held fewer responses, mostly for a handler that answers at once. On macOS one read can return all 512 KB. There, Bun 1.4.3 already reached +951 MB for the handler that answers one tick later, and Node reached +1,294 MB. `server.maxRequestsPerSocket` bounds it. ### Performance #### Responses larger than 16 KB are faster, and now faster than Node On main, a response that did not fit the 16 KB uWS cork buffer released the cork. After that, each piece was its own `send()`: the buffered head, the chunk-size line, the data, the `\r\n` and the last chunk. Over TLS, each 2-byte piece was also its own record. Two changes fix that, for `Bun.serve` and for node:http: | Change | Effect | | --- | --- | | A write that does not fit goes out with the cork buffer and its framing in one vectored write | No copy is added. Over TLS, the records of all the pieces share the write batch that one `SSL_write` loop already had. | | The cork buffer holds 128 KB, up from 16 KB. Only a write of 16 KB or less is copied into it, as before. | Several writes in one tick go out in one write, like in Node. A longer write still goes out without a copy. | The bytes on the wire are the same. The vectored write uses `sendmsg()` with the flags that `send()` uses. Write syscalls for one response: | Response | Node 26.3 | main | This PR | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 4 x `res.write(16 KB)` | 1 | 16 | 1 | | 40 x `res.write(2 KB)` | 1 | 16 | 1 | | `res.end(64 KB)` | 1 | 2 | 1 | | 256 KB file, `.pipe(res)` | 4 | 16 | 5 | Throughput (req/s, the mean of 2 rounds).

This PR is faster than Node in all eight. `Bun.serve`, measured on `a771572a8d`, before the larger cork buffer (req/s, the mean of 2 rounds): | Case | main | PR | Change | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Direct stream, 4 x 16 KB | 6,826 | 12,479 | +83% | | 64 KB string | 16,944 | 20,145 | +19% | | TLS, 64 KB string | 15,045 | 16,892 | +12% | | hello (control) | 83,957 | 83,137 | -1.0% | These runs are on loopback, where the kernel send buffer is 2.6 MB and the work of the receiver runs inside `send()`. That is the best case for fewer writes. A new connection over a real network takes about 46 KB in its first write on Linux. The rest waits in the socket buffer, as it would after separate writes. #### Small responses are unchanged A small response is already one `recvfrom` and one `sendto` on both builds. `perf` puts 66% of the time of a hello-world server in the kernel, on both builds. CI release builds on Linux x64: main `97246d044e` (the merge base) against this PR `8834cd0787`. Both use the same WebKit. The server runs on one pinned core. `oha` sends 64 connections for 5 s after a 2 s warm-up. There are 2 rounds, and the order of the builds alternates. "Change" compares the means of the two rounds.

The relaxed state does not consume a NUL, and the next state sent it back there. 9.4.3 has the same loop. | `llhttp.c`, noted in its `README.md` | | A node:http socket that `onData` is parsing gets the close gate of `onData`, also when a large write released the cork | `HttpResponse.h` `uncorkCompletedResponse()` | | A read that starts no message leaves an idle connection idle | `HttpContext.h` `onData` | The open review threads are fixed in `8834cd0787`: `closeAllConnections()`, `Proxy-Connection: close`, five comments cut to one line, and the test of two overlapping listeners, which now waits on events. With the generation gate in `emitCloseServer` removed, that test fails in both cases. `AsyncSocketData` keeps its bools together, which takes it from 56 to 48 bytes per socket. `http.Server` no longer extends `net.Server` (see "Not included"). The special case for it in `Ipc.ts` is gone too. `child.send(msg, httpServer)` still throws `ERR_INVALID_HANDLE_TYPE`, and its test stays. <details><summary>Changes since the first revision (2988a61)</summary> Merged with main at `c8e1f6fa5b`. The one conflict was #43708 (`req.socket` emits `'end'` and `'error'`). Its state bit `HTTP_NODE_PEER_ENDED` moved to bit 22, because bit 19 is `HTTP_NODE_NOTIFY_READ_PARSED` here. Its 15 tests run in `node-http-server-abort-events.test.ts` next to the tests of this branch (103 pass). CI on `2988a610c` had ten red tests from four causes. They are fixed: - `ed882e5e99`: `write()` to a response without a body (HEAD, 204) does not wait for unsent bytes. - `811f817704`: an idle tunnel does not hold the event loop after `server.close()`. Four vendored Node tests timed out on every platform. - `0697deec11`, `d428824c08`, `7aec062d14`: the write callback tests use a body that backs up a loopback socket, and accept what Winsock does. - `c7af1c1615`: two tests from main asserted the old `close()` contract. Review findings, each reproduced against Node v26.3.0 and fixed with a test that fails without the fix: - `d4d2b783ea`, `2cc79939bb`, `45141abca9`, `9a63dbc470`, `80a23a1822`: the idle rule. A keep-alive connection is idle again when its body ends after its response. A connection that owes a queued pipelined response, that still receives a request head or body, or whose response still drains is not idle. - `87d8904aa3`, `7eca4f7806`: `close(cb)` followed by `listen()` in the same tick reports `'close'`, also for an https server whose only connection was idle. - `3fd7b25382`: a paused pipelined request behind a response that still drains stops the connection. The first revision read 512 MiB of 512 MiB into memory. - `2d1a5e2d8d`, `33e4683a8a`, `539cb41eb9`, `197c7dfc29`, `0490e3540b`: raw socket writes stay behind every unsent response byte. The cases were a CONNECT pipelined behind a response that still drains (its `200` landed at offset 2.6 MB of a 64 MiB body), a zero-length tunnel write (it hung the tunnel), the 400 replies above, the zero-copy tail of a large `res.write()`, the cork buffer, and Windows 11, where the kernel takes the whole response and refuses the next send. - `0abd39c133`: an upgrade from the request's `'end'` listener keeps the body bytes out of the WebSocket. The connection closed with 1006 right after the 101. - `5aafc61aa6`: the callback of a small `res.write()` that the kernel refuses at the uncork runs on the drain. Reproduced on Windows 11 only. - `a29289bcc1`: a tunnel write that waits for a drain settles its callbacks when the connection closes. Known differences from Node that this PR leaves: - A handler that calls `res.end()` and then `server.close()` closes its keep-alive connection at once. Node waits for the `keepAliveTimeout`. - A pipelined Upgrade behind a response that still drains is served as a plain request. - An `end()` on a tunnel with no write pending, while the response before the CONNECT still drains, closes both directions after the flush. Node half-closes. - A raw `req.socket.write(big)` and `req.socket.end()` with no `res.end()` sends every byte but no FIN. main loses bytes here. - A CONNECT socket that is given back with `server.emit('connection', socket)` answers only the first of several pipelined requests. main answers none. - A large write from an `'upgrade'` listener stalls while the body of that Upgrade request is still pending. A second `listen()` on a listening server does not throw. Both are the same on main. - A tunnel write that fails because the client went away fails its callbacks but emits no `'error'`. Node emits `ECONNRESET`. A new `'error'` could end a process that has no listener for it. </details> <!-- robobun:evidence:begin --> --- **no test proof** · iteration 8 · platform-specific test(s) that do not run on this machine, deferring to CI, which covers all platforms: test/js/web/fetch/fetch.stream.test.ts, test/js/node/url/url.test.ts, test/js/node/tls/tls-syscall-fault.test.ts, test/js/node/net/node-net-server.test.ts, test/js/node/http/node-http.test.ts, test/js/node/http/node-http-syscall-fault.test.ts, test/js/node/http/node-http-server-close-drain.test.ts, test/js/node/http/node-http-connect.test.ts, test/js/node/http/node-http-backpressure.test.ts, test/js/node/child_process/child_process_ipc_handle.test.ts, test/js/bun/http/serve.test.ts, test/js/bun/http/serve-syscall-fault.test.ts, test/js/bun/http/bun-server.test.ts <!-- robobun:evidence:end --> --------- Co-authored-by: Jarred Sumner <jarred@jarredsumner.com> Co-authored-by: autofix-ci[bot] <114827586+autofix-ci[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

Problem
node:httpserver ignoresres.useChunkedEncodingByDefault = falsewhen the headers are implicit. Forres.write("hel"); res.end("lo")Node sendsConnection: close, a raw body and a FIN. Bun chunk-frames the body and keeps the connection alive. Found by a node/bun wire comparison, not a user report.renderNativeHeaders(src/js/node/_http_server.ts:2277) mirrors Node's_storeHeader, but read the flag only in the removed-Content-Length /writeHead()branch (node:http: fix malformed chunked responses to HTTP/1.0 clients when Content-Length is removed #34418). Its keep-alive choice lacked Node'scontLen || useChunkedEncodingByDefaultrule.HTTP_CONNECTION_CLOSE, and the second response went out inside the first body.Fix

Self-reviewed: 1 concern raised (the pipelining hole), addressed.Background
Content-Length, byTransfer-Encoding: chunked, or by the connection close. After a close-delimited body the peer reads every later byte as body.node:httpheaders in JS and frames the body in uWS. A sentinel entry makes uWS write the body raw and close once its buffer drains.Notes

Every cell that changed againstmainnow equals node.
