I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it reworks the HTTP/3 response state machine across several entry points (deferred header block + endAfterDrain + markDone interactions) in native code, a human look at the state transitions is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed
- Traced every
sendBufferedHeaderscaller (flushHeaders,endWithoutBody, bothinternalEndbranches,drain) through the newheadersDeferredpath — each either setsendAfterDrainitself or falls through to the new backpressure guard, so body bytes and FIN cannot precede the retried block. - Checked that
drain()resending withendStream=falseis equivalent to the originalendStream=truebecauseendAfterDraintriggersus_quic_stream_shutdown()afterward, matching whatus_quic_stream_send_headersdoes withend_stream. - Confirmed the offset-encoded
hdrs/hdrBufsurvive a refusal (resolved into a local copy; buffers only cleared on the non-retry path), andheadersDeferredis reset inHttp3ResponseData::reset(). - Tests:
port: 0,bunExe/bunEnv, no sleeps, stdout asserted before exit code, debug-only case gated onisDebug; each case uses a fresh connection so a warm one can't mask the refusal.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR fixes #33082: over HTTP/3, Expect: 100-continue on the first request of a connection made lsquic refuse the final HEADERS block because the interim 100 block was still stashed, and sendBufferedHeaders dropped that failure and cleared its buffers. The fix threads a US_QUIC_SEND_HEADERS_RETRY sentinel out of us_quic_stream_send_headers (quic.c/quic.h), and in Http3Response.h keeps the refused block, sets a new headersDeferred flag on Http3ResponseData, gates write(), endWithoutBody(), sendTerminatingChunk(), and internalEnd() on it so body bytes and FIN queue behind the block, and has drain() retry the send before flushing body/backpressure. Nine new test cases in serve-http3.test.ts cover seven response shapes as first-request-of-connection, a node:quic wire-ordering assertion, and a debug-only check that lsquic actually logs the refusal.
Security risks
None identified. The change is server-side response ordering; no new parsing of client-controlled data, no auth/crypto/permission surface. The errno = 0 clear before lsquic_stream_send_headers narrows (rather than widens) which failures are treated as retryable.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is native C/C++ in the QUIC/HTTP3 stack — REVIEW.md's most-blocked category — and it edits a state machine with several entry points that must all agree on the new invariant (headers-before-body when deferred). I traced each entry point manually and the PR description's per-entry-point breakdown matches the code, but the double markDone() on the deferred no-body path (once from endWithoutBody/internalEnd, once from drain()'s endAfterDrain branch) and the HTTP_WRITE_CALLED flag being set even when the send deferred are the kind of subtleties a maintainer familiar with the Rust-side onWritable contract should confirm are intended. markDone is idempotent and us_quic_stream_shutdown_read is a no-op after the first call, so I don't see a defect — it just isn't a mechanical change.
Other factors
The test suite is thorough and follows repo conventions (concurrent, port: 0, no network, no sleeps, bunExe/bunEnv, stdout asserted before exit code, test.skipIf(!isDebug) for the log-scraping case). The PR description is unusually detailed, cites the lsquic API contract for the retry semantics, explicitly lists what is not fixed (hard -1 still ignored, 100 still not proactively flushed), and states the fail-before behavior on canary. The bug hunt exited on dry_streak with no findings and no ruled-out candidates. Given the native state-machine surface, deferring rather than approving is the right call under the guidelines.

### Problem
- `Bun.serve({ http3: true })` sends its automatic `100 Continue` only
with the final response. A client that waits for the 100 waits its full
timeout: curl with `Expect: 100-continue` takes 1.01 s over
`--http3-only`, 7 ms over HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2.
- `fetch()` over HTTP/3 with a streamed request body does not reach the
server until the first chunk exists, so a body whose first chunk waits
for the server never gets there. HTTP/1.1 sends the request headers at
once.
- Cause: `lsquic_stream_send_headers` only buffers.
`us_quic_stream_send_informational`
(`packages/bun-usockets/src/quic.c:1125`) and
`us_quic_stream_send_headers` without `end_stream` (`quic.c:1136`) leave
the flush to the next body write.
### Fix
- Both writers call `us_quic_flush_from_on_write`, which asks for
`on_write`. `us_quic_on_write` flushes after `on_stream_writable`.
- Correct because `on_write` runs in the write phase of the same
`process_conns`, after lsquic wrote a held-back block. A response that
the handler wrote at once is behind the 100 by then. Both still leave in
one STREAM frame.
- Verified: `test/js/bun/http/serve-http3.test.ts` (2 new) and
`test/js/web/fetch/fetch-http3-client.test.ts` (1 new) time out without
it. Also `fetch-http3-*`, `serve-protocols`, `test/js/node/quic/`.
- Self-reviewed: 7 concerns raised, 7 addressed (Notes).
### Background
- lsquic buffers stream writes until a packet is full, the stream ends,
or a flush. `process_conns` runs read callbacks (the request handlers),
then write callbacks.
- On a new connection lsquic holds a header block back until its QPACK
encoder stream is out. A flush then does nothing. lsquic calls
`on_write` right after it writes it.
- Stacked on #42860: without it, a 100 in its own packet makes a reader
lose a final response with no body.
<details><summary>Notes</summary>
**No user reported this.** It was found while #42805 was in work. Reach:
the experimental `http3: true`, a client that sets `Expect` itself over
HTTP/3 and waits (curl does, `fetch()` does not), and a handler that
reads the body before it answers. The cost is the client's expect
timeout on each request, and the request still succeeds. The second
writer costs more: a `fetch()` body whose first chunk depends on the
server hangs until the idle timeout and rejects with `HTTP3StreamReset`.
**curl 8.14.1, 64 KB POST with `Expect: 100-continue`, three runs
each:**
| | `--http3-only` | `--http2` | `--http1.1` |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| canary 09bb546 | 1.012 s, 1.012 s, 1.010 s | 7 ms, 6 ms, 7 ms | 6
ms, 5 ms, 7 ms |
| this PR (debug build) | 0.337 s, 0.021 s, 0.017 s | 11 ms | 10 to 13
ms |
Without `Expect`, `--http3-only` takes 8 ms on canary. The first
debug-build run includes the first handshake of that process.
**Why the flush is in `on_write` and not in the two writers.**
- On the first request of a connection, `lsquic_qeh_write_headers`
returns `QWH_PARTIAL` and `send_headers_ietf` stashes the block.
`sm_n_buffered` is 0, so `lsquic_stream_flush` logs `flushing 0 bytes:
noop`. `on_write_header_wrapper` writes the block later and then calls
the user's `on_write`. The second server test covers this (lsquic debug
log: `stashed 4 bytes of header block`, once per run).
- A handler that answers in the same call writes its response in the
read phase. A flush at send time puts the 100 in its own STREAM frame
ahead of it. A flush in `on_write` keeps today's single frame
(`generated STREAM frame: stream 4, offset: 0, size: 55, fin: 1`).
**The flag is taken before the callback.** The `fetch()` client sends
its request from inside `on_stream_writable`. A block sent there is
flushed by the next `on_write`: lsquic calls it at once because
want-write is set again, or after it wrote a held-back block. No user of
`quic.c` clears want-write.
**Cost on the response path.** A response that ends in the same call
cancels the want-write in `stream_shutdown_write`, so no extra
`on_write` runs. A streamed response gets one extra `on_write`, and
`drain()` does nothing there without backpressure.
**Other details.**
- `pending_write_bytes++` in `us_quic_stream_send_informational` covers
a call from outside an lsquic callback (`uws_h3_res_write_continue`).
`us_quic_stream_send_headers` already bumps it.
- lsquic calls `on_close` and destroys a stream only from the service
phase of its tick, so the stream is valid after `on_stream_writable`
returns. A flush on a stream that the callback shut down is a no-op
(`EBADF`).
- Response headers are not a third site. `Bun.serve` has no HTTP/3
caller of `flushHeaders()`, and it sends response headers with the first
chunk on HTTP/1.1 too (701 ms on both for a first chunk that is 700 ms
late).
**#42805 (for #33082).** The two PRs change different functions and pass
together: merged locally, `serve-http3` has 74 passes. Its body says the
fix for the late 100 "needs this retry path". That is the case where the
handler answers while lsquic still holds the 100 back: lsquic refuses
the final block there, with and without this PR. This PR does not change
that case. If the maintainers take the alternative that #42805 offers
and remove the automatic 100 for HTTP/3, the 1xx half of this PR has no
caller left. The request-headers half still stands.
**`node:quic`** has its own header writer with the same gap when a
stream is opened before the handshake completes. It is tracked in #42866
and not changed here. The new-connection test takes `stream.writer`
before `sendHeaders`, as the `server.stop()` test in the same file does,
so it does not depend on that bug.
**With #42860 and this PR**, a busy `node:quic` client that receives the
100 and a later 204 in one batch gets `info 100`, `headers 204` (3 of 3
runs). Without #42860 it lost `headers 204` against this server (0 of
3).
**Suites run on the debug build:** `serve-http3` (65),
`fetch-http3-client` (61), `fetch-http3-adversarial` (27),
`fetch-http3-cold-post` (2), `fetch-http3-syscall-fault` (7),
`serve-protocols` (20), `quic-stream` (6), `quic-endpoint` (7),
`quic-sni` (6), and the other files that use HTTP/3:
`serve-http2-lifecycle` (23), `serve-direct-readable-stream` (149),
`body-stream` (9086). With the sources of #42860, the three new tests
time out.
`fetch-backpressure.test.ts` does not pass on the debug build in my
container: the HTTP/3 receive-backpressure tests time out and the S3
tests fail. It fails the same way there with the sources of
`origin/main`, and it passes in CI.

…t behind a pending 100 Continue lsquic keeps one outgoing header block per stream. On the first request of a QUIC connection it stashes the 100 Continue block, because the QPACK encoder stream has not sent its type byte yet. It then refuses the final header block with -1 and errno EAGAIN. Http3Response dropped that result, cleared its header buffer and wrote the body, so the client saw DATA after the 100 and reset the stream (HTTP3StreamReset). us_quic_stream_send_headers now reports the refusal as US_QUIC_SEND_HEADERS_RETRY. Http3Response keeps the block in hdrBuf/hdrs, holds body bytes and the FIN behind it, and sends the block from drain() when the stream is writable again. Fixes #33082
…ontinue case A streamed response to a POST whose body the handler never reads leaks the request context over HTTP/3 on main. That fault does not involve the header block resend, and LeakSanitizer reports it at exit. The case keeps the ReadableStream response and reads the body first.
…continue cases The request-context leak that this shape hit over HTTP/3 is fixed on main (#42844), so the case no longer has to read the request body first. Both shapes stay.

I reviewed the pushed version of this PR and did not find any bugs, but a human look is still worthwhile: the fix's correctness rests on lsquic's on_write ordering contract (final block resent only after the stashed 100 block is flushed), which I could not confirm against the vendored lsquic source in this checkout.
What was reviewed:
- Every
Http3Responsesend path (write,end/tryEnd,endWithoutBody,sendTerminatingChunk,drain) gates onheadersDeferredconsistently;tryEndreturns false without buffering so the Rust side retries fromonWritable. - The empty-body/204 path calls
markDonetwice (once atinternalEnd, again fromdrain); it is flag-only plus a repeated read-side shutdown, so idempotent. sendBufferedHeadersnow resolves offsets in a copied vector, sohdrs/hdrBufare intact for the resend;reset()clears the new flag.- Candidate "DATA before final HEADERS when the resent block is itself stashed" was considered; the resend runs from
on_writeafter the encoder stream drained, so the block goes out inline, but this is the lsquic-dependent assumption a human should weigh.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR touches the HTTP/3 server response path in three native layers: packages/bun-usockets/src/quic.c (maps lsquic's -1/EAGAIN from lsquic_stream_send_headers to a new US_QUIC_SEND_HEADERS_RETRY sentinel, clearing errno first), packages/bun-uws/src/Http3ResponseData.h (new headersDeferred flag, reset in reset()), and packages/bun-uws/src/Http3Response.h (sendBufferedHeaders resolves header offsets into a copied WTF::Vector, defers on RETRY, and drain() resends before flushing body backpressure; all send entry points treat headersDeferred like existing backpressure). Tests extend test/js/bun/http/serve-http3.test.ts with an 8-shape test.each matrix, a node:quic ordering test, and a debug-only lsquic-log test.
Security risks
No auth, crypto or input-parsing surface is changed. The only new external-data-driven behavior is a retry on a specific errno; a hard -1 is still ignored as before (the author states this is reported separately). No new allocation sized from peer data — the copied header vector is bounded by the server's own headers.
Level of scrutiny
This is stateful native protocol code with a new lifecycle flag and a retry path whose correctness depends on lsquic guaranteeing that the user's on_write fires only after the stashed 100 block has been written. The vendored lsquic tree is not present in this shallow checkout, so that contract could only be taken from the PR's citation of apiref.rst, not verified from source. That, plus the fact that this is a server-side HTTP/3 change that could alter wire ordering, warrants a human review rather than automated approval. Within what could be checked: every sibling send path was audited for consistent gating; tryEnd's optional path returns false without buffering (so the Rust caller retries after onWritable); the empty-body path's double markDone is idempotent; reset() clears the new flag; the copied vector fixes the prior in-place pointer rewrite so the deferred block remains resendable.
Other factors
Two earlier runs of this system posted "no issues" on prior pushed versions; three commits have since been pushed (the fix plus two test adjustments), so this run re-examined the full diff. The test additions follow harness conventions (Buffer.alloc for the large body, describe.concurrent, port: 0, concurrent pipe draining, toEqual on combined objects, skipIf(!isDebug) with a stated reason). The one investigated candidate — DATA emitted before the final HEADERS if the resent block is itself stashed — is ruled out under the assumed lsquic contract but is exactly the point a maintainer familiar with lsquic should confirm.

🟣 pre-existing, not blocking: Pre-existing, left as the base does it: when lsquic hard-refuses the final header block (-1, e.g. headers over lsquic's 64 KB block buffer or a closed stream), the response is still treated as sent. sendBufferedHeaders at Http3Response.h:224 only branches on US_QUIC_SEND_HEADERS_RETRY; r == -1 falls through to hdrBuf.shrink(0) at Http3Response.h:232, and the no-body callers then markDone without a FIN, since quic.c:1220 shuts the stream down only when r == 0. Fix: on r == -1, reset or close the stream (us_quic_stream_reset) and markDone so the holder sees the failure, instead of discarding the block and continuing as if it were sent; the same applies to the retry in drain() at Http3Response.h:186.
A small fix can ride a push you are already making; otherwise a short reply is enough.
Why this was flagged
A handler on Bun.serve({ http3: true }) sets response headers that lsquic cannot encode into one block (lsquic's send_headers_ietf uses a 64 KB buffer and returns -1), or responds on a stream lsquic has already shut. us_quic_stream_send_headers at packages/bun-usockets/src/quic.c:1216-1220 returns -1 and does not call lsquic_stream_shutdown. sendBufferedHeaders at packages/bun-uws/src/Http3Response.h:222-233 checks only r == US_QUIC_SEND_HEADERS_RETRY, so -1 falls through to hdrBuf.shrink(0)/hdrs.shrink(0): the block is gone. internalEnd at Http3Response.h:247-250 and endWithoutBody at Http3Response.h:116-118 then call markDone; no HEADERS and no FIN ever go out, so the client waits until the QUIC idle timeout. The base branch behaves the same way (the diff keeps if (end_stream && r == 0)), so this is pre-existing, filed because the diff now inspects r and still swallows -1.
Verification: packages/bun-usockets/src/quic.c:1216-1220 — if (end_stream && r == 0) lsquic_stream_shutdown(s->stream, 1); — so a hard -1 performs no shutdown and no flush. packages/bun-uws/src/Http3Response.h:222-233 — only if (r == US_QUIC_SEND_HEADERS_RETRY) is handled; -1 falls through to d->hdrBuf.shrink(0); d->hdrs.shrink(0); and the callers proceed as if sent. Base branch behaviour is identical.
Fixes #33082
Problem
Bun.serve({ http3: true })resets a request withExpect: 100-continuewhen it is the first request of a QUIC connection:HTTP3StreamReset. A response with no body (204,"") hangs.100block and refuses the final block:cannot send headers while previous header block is pending(-1,errno EAGAIN).sendBufferedHeaders(packages/bun-uws/src/Http3Response.h:206) drops that result and clears the header buffer. The body follows the100with no final HEADERS.Fix
us_quic_stream_send_headersreturnsUS_QUIC_SEND_HEADERS_RETRYfor the refusal. It clearserrnofirst, because the UDP socket leaves staleEAGAINvalues.Http3Responsekeeps the refused block and setsheadersDeferred. Body bytes wait inbackpressure, a FIN waits inendAfterDrain.drain()sends the block first.on_writeonly after it wrote the stashed block, so the wire order is100, final HEADERS, DATA.

Http3Responsemirrors uWSHttpResponse. It buffers response headers into one HEADERS frame.Http3ContextanswersExpect: 100-continuewithHEADERS(:status 100)before it routes the request. http3: flush a header block when no body bytes follow it #42867 sends it at once.drain()runs from lsquic'son_write. It writesbackpressure, then the FIN ifendAfterDrainis set.Notes
Why the
100block is stashed. The client's SETTINGS and its first request arrive in one flight. lsquic handles SETTINGS, creates the outgoing QPACK encoder stream and queues its 1 type byte. The request handler runs in the same read pass, before any write event.lsquic_qeh_write_headerssees the queued byte and returnsQWH_PARTIAL, sosend_headers_ietfstashes the block (SSHS_ENC_SENDING). A warm connection has flushed the encoder stream, so the100goes out inline and nothing is refused.lsquic debug log, server side, unfixed main:

vendor/lsquic/docs/apiref.rst(lsquic_stream_send_headers): a second call before the pending block is flushed "fails with -1 and sets errno to EAGAIN", and applications that send "an informational response followed by the final response, should serialize those calls and retry after LSQUIC has flushed the previous header block".lsquic_stream_wantwriteonly saves the flag while a block is pending, andon_write_header_wrappercalls the user'son_writeafterstream_hblock_sent, so the resend runs right after the100is written.endAfterDrainfor the FIN. lsquic ignoreseosfor IETF QUIC.end_streaminus_quic_stream_send_headersis the send pluslsquic_stream_shutdown(stream, 1).

src/andpackages/from main: 9 of 10 fail. 5 cases reject withHTTP3StreamReset, the empty-body and 204 cases time out, the node:quic case gets no final HEADERS, and the debug-only case fails with them. The string-body case that reads the request body first depends on timing on an unfixed build: it passed in this debug run, and the same shape rejects 3 of 3 on a release build of that commit. Before the rebase, release canary 09bb546 failed the same cases. The debug-only case is skipped on release builds. It checks that lsquic still logs the refusal, so a lsquic update that stops stashing the100fails there and does not let the other cases pass without the resend.Not changed here.
-1fromus_quic_stream_send_headersis still ignored. Response headers over 64 KB hit that path and spin the server. Reported separately.100is fixed on main by http3: flush a header block when no body bytes follow it #42867 (with http3: deliver every header block that lsquic decodes while a stream is read #42860): a client that waits for the100now gets it at once. That change does not reach this bug. A client that sends its body at once (fetch) still has its final block refused behind the pending100on main. This branch is rebased on both, and main's two waiting-client cases pass on it.RequestContext::on_buffered_body_chunk). It did not involve this change, and Bun.serve: end the request when an HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 stream closes after a streamed response #42844 fixed it on main. The ReadableStream cases cover both shapes: with and without a read of the request body.100for HTTP/3 (Http3Context.h:38). That also stops the reset, but HTTP/3 then never answersExpect, unlike HTTP/1 and HTTP/2. If that is preferred, close this PR and take the fetch-based test cases.STREAM_HEADERS_SENTis set, soCOMMON_WRITE_CHECKSno longer blockslsquic_stream_writewhile a later block that lsquic accepted is still stashed, andsm_write_availno longer advancesSSHS_ENC_SENDING. The resend runs after the encoder stream drained, so it does not reach this. It is an upstream limit for any second header block.Self-review: ran a review of the diff. It asked for the wording above about the unflushed
