node:http2: make respondWithFD() follow node with and without a statCheck

[robobun]

Problem

• stream.respondWithFD(fd) leaves headersSent false. A respond() right after it does not throw ERR_HTTP2_HEADERS_SENT. The client gets :status 200 and the stream never ends.
• respondWithFD() (src/js/node/http2.ts:3419) always waited for fs.fstat, then ran the callback of respondWithFile(). It had already closed the writable side, so after the second respond() nothing sent END_STREAM.
• That callback read from the current position of the descriptor when offset was 0. A second response from one descriptor had an empty body.

Fix

• Without a statCheck, respondWithFD() calls processRespondWithFD() before it returns. With one, fstat calls doSendFD. Both port node v26.3.0. As in node, respondWithFD() adds no content-length and does no file-type check.
• Reads are positioned at offset (default 0). For respondWithFD(), a negative offset reads from the current position, fractions truncate, and length: 0 sends no body, as in node.
• ownsFd is a parameter now and the per-stream kOwnsFd flag is gone. respondWithFile() followed by respondWithFD() on one stream no longer leaks a descriptor.
• Verified: test/js/node/http2/node-http2.test.js (9 new tests, all fail on 1.4.3). Also all 256 test-http2-*.js node tests.

Background

• respondWithFD(fd) sends an open descriptor that the caller owns. respondWithFile(path) opens the file itself and must close it.
• statCheck is a user callback that sees the fs.Stats before the headers go out. Node calls fstat only for it.
• A file response closes the user-facing writable side and pipes an fs.createReadStream into the native stream. The saved _final sends END_STREAM when the file ends.

Notes

Repro (bun file.mjs and node file.mjs, in a 'stream' handler):

st.respondWithFD(fd);
console.log(st.headersSent); // node: true, bun 1.4.3: false
st.respond(); // node: ERR_HTTP2_HEADERS_SENT, bun 1.4.3: no throw, then the client hangs after :status 200

Behavior that changes for respondWithFD(), each one checked against node v26.3.0

call	bun 1.4.3	node and this PR
respondWithFD(fd)	headersSent false, content-length added from fstat	headersSent true, no content-length
second respondWithFD(fd) with the same fd	200, content-length: 10, empty body	whole file
{ length: 0 }	whole file	empty body
{ offset: 1.5 }, { length: NaN }	uncaught ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE from the fstat callback	truncated to an integer (NaN is 0)
{ statCheck }	content-length added, third argument is the options object	no content-length, third argument is { offset, length } and it is read back after the call
{ statCheck } with a bad fd	200, then ERR_HTTP2_STREAM_ERROR	no headers, stream destroyed with EBADF
fd -1 (a closed FileHandle)	sync ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE after the writable side was closed	200, then RST_STREAM INTERNAL_ERROR
directory fd	ERR_HTTP2_SEND_FILE	200, then RST_STREAM INTERNAL_ERROR (the read fails)
FIFO fd, no options	body sent	RST_STREAM INTERNAL_ERROR (a positioned read fails). offset: -1 reads it, as in node
closed stream	no throw	throws ERR_HTTP2_INVALID_STREAM
{ offset: 3, length: Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER }	rest of the file	rest of the file (the read end is clamped, so fs.createReadStream accepts it)

A plain script with 34 of these calls (12 ranges with and without a statCheck, a statCheck that edits its third argument, one that sets content-length, three negative offsets, bad descriptors, directory descriptors) prints the same 34 lines under node v26.3.0 and under this build.

One deliberate difference from node. With a statCheck, node reads the range as offset | 0 and length | 0, which wraps at 2^31 (length: 2 ** 40 becomes 0 and node sends an empty body). processRespondWithFD uses Math.trunc for both paths, so a range past 2 GiB works. Every value below 2^31 gives the same result as node.

A statCheck that closes the stream (this.close(NGHTTP2_REFUSED_STREAM)), for both methods. Before, the HEADERS still went out on the closed stream. That was a connection error for the client, and the next request on the session failed. Now doSendFD and doSendFileFD return after statCheck when the stream is closed or destroyed, as they do when statCheck sent another response. The reset code that the client sees for such a stream is still 0 where node sends 7. That comes from close() on a stream that sent nothing (#33380).

respondWithFile()

• The range logic of doSendFileFD is not changed (length: 0 still means the whole file there, node:http2: handle an empty byte range in respondWithFile and respondWithFD #41516 covers that and the range validation).
• Two things do change. A zero-length range (an empty file) now ends the stream without a read stream. Before, fs.createReadStream threw ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE inside the fstat callback. A directory without onError now destroys the stream and sends nothing first, as node does. Before, it sent 200 first. The fstat error branch had the same 200-first emulation. It existed for respondWithFD(badFd), which does not use fstat any more.
• Regular files are read at offset with positioned reads. A file that respondWithFile() just opened is at position 0, so nothing visible changes.

Not covered here

• respond() details that the file responses inherit: status validation happens in respond() and destroys the stream where node throws (node:http2: validate the server stream :status like node #43453, node:http2: prepare the final response headers like node #43526), options.endStream is honored where node ignores it (node:http2: ignore request() options in respond(), like node #43478), onError receives header errors, and the http2.server.stream.finish diagnostics channel is published.
• respondWithFile() and respond() on a closed stream (node:http2: send RST_STREAM when a server stream is reset #33380, node:http2: check fd in respondWithFD() like node, after the stream state and the options #43550).

Other open PRs on these lines. Whichever lands second needs a rebase.

• node:http2: do not call respond() when a file response fails before the headers are sent #43463 removes the same two 200-first respond() calls from doSendFileFD. It keeps the fstat in the path without a statCheck and adds a helper that replays node's outcome there. With this PR that path does not reach fstat, so the helper has no caller.
• node:http2: check fd in respondWithFD() like node, after the stream state and the options #43550 and node:http2: send RST_STREAM when a server stream is reset #33380 add the closed-stream check to both methods. node:http2: check fd in respondWithFD() like node, after the stream state and the options #43550 also reorders the argument checks of respondWithFD().
• node:http2: handle an empty byte range in respondWithFile and respondWithFD #41516: its zero-length branch is now in processRespondWithFD, and its empty-fd case expects a content-length that respondWithFD() no longer adds.
• node:http2: throw getUnpackedSettings/respondWithFD ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE through the shared error machinery #38644 rewrites the last lines of respondWithFD() and still uses the FileHandle import that this PR removes as dead.
• node:http2: validate the server stream :status like node #43453, node:http2: prepare the final response headers like node #43526, node:http2: ignore request() options in respond(), like node #43478 and node:http2: validate the headers and options arguments like node #43491 touch the preambles of both methods or the options that reach respond().

Self-review: 8 concerns raised, 7 addressed.

• Addressed: fs.createReadStream could throw after the headers were out (fd -1). A zero-length response ran _final before the caller could add a 'wantTrailers' listener. The statCheck path still ran the callback of respondWithFile(). Descriptor ownership was read from the stream after user code ran. The new synchronous path sent headers on a closed stream. The directory branch kept the 200-first emulation. The range test asserted once at the end, so on an unfixed build its uncaught errors reached the next tests.
• From the review bots after the PR opened: a statCheck that closes the stream (fixed, see above), and a length near Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER with an offset made a read end that fs.createReadStream rejects (fixed, with a test row). Two findings were not changed, with the reason in each thread: node passes no third argument to the statCheck of respondWithFile(), and the negative content-length for an offset past the end of the file is the same on main and belongs to node:http2: handle an empty byte range in respondWithFile and respondWithFD #41516.
• A statCheck that throws in respondWithFile() left doSendFileFD before any tryClose(fd). A process that survives the uncaught exception leaked one descriptor per request (node v26.3.0 leaks it too). doSendFileFD now closes the descriptor and throws the same error again. The test for it runs in a child process.
• Rejected: matching node for options.endStream, onError on header errors and the finish diagnostics channel. They come from respond(), they were the same before this PR, and each one is a separate change.

Tests run with the debug build: test/js/node/http2/node-http2.test.js (396 pass, 6 skip, 0 fail), the 22 files under test/js/node/test/{parallel,sequential} that call respondWithFile/respondWithFD, and all 256 test/js/node/test/parallel/test-http2-*.js (one, test-http2-forget-closed-streams.js, needs about 82 s on this machine and passes alone).

Walkthrough

The HTTP/2 implementation now handles descriptor ownership explicitly. respondWithFD() preserves caller-owned descriptors, while respondWithFile() closes descriptors it opens. The tests cover ranges, validation, errors, trailers, stream state, and descriptor lifetime.

Changes

HTTP/2 file descriptor handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Explicit descriptor ownership and cleanup src/js/node/http2.ts	Descriptor ownership is passed through the send paths. Error, cancellation, and response-race paths close internally opened descriptors.
FD and file response processing src/js/node/http2.ts	File responses normalize offsets and lengths, handle zero-length and non-regular inputs, and use explicit read-stream bounds. respondWithFD() calls fstat only when statCheck is supplied and rejects closed, destroyed, or detached streams.
Response behavior and descriptor lifetime tests test/js/node/http2/node-http2.test.js	Tests cover response timing, ranges, statCheck, invalid descriptors, trailers, closed streams, directory failures, response races, and descriptor cleanup.

Status: the fix is in this PR (#43564). The branch has main (a4f1429) merged in since a2f8756 and has no conflict. It needs a maintainer review.

How I reproduced it: in a 'stream' handler, call st.respondWithFD(fd), read st.headersSent, then call st.respond().

• node v26.3.0: true, then ERR_HTTP2_HEADERS_SENT, and the client receives the file.
• bun 1.4.3 and main (26e7a4b): false, no throw, and the client waits forever after :status 200.

A second repro, one descriptor for every request: the server opens a file once and answers 20 requests on one session with stream.respondWithFD(fd).

• node v26.3.0: 20 whole responses.
• bun 1.4.3: 1 whole response and 19 with :status 200 and an empty body.
• this branch at a2f8756: 20 whole responses. The result is the same for sequential requests and for 20 at once, with no options, with offset: 0 and with a statCheck.

The new tests fail on an unfixed build: USE_SYSTEM_BUN=1 bun test test/js/node/http2/node-http2.test.js -t "respondWithFD\(\)|respondWithFile\(\)" reports 9 failures on Linux (two of the tests need /proc/self/fd and are skipped elsewhere). They pass with bun bd test.

[claude]

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked two things this diff removes: the instanceof FileHandle unwrap in respondWithFD() was dead (the typeof fd.fd === "number" unwrap at the top of the method already runs first), and dropping the idempotency guard from closeWritableForFileResponse is safe because a second processRespondWithFD on one stream hits respond()'s ERR_HTTP2_HEADERS_SENT throw and takes the catch path before the writable side is touched.

Extended reasoning...

Findings were reported inline, so this note only records what else was examined. The removed FileHandle import/unwrap in src/js/node/http2.ts is redundant with the existing fd.fd unwrap at the start of respondWithFD() (line ~3419), so FileHandle inputs still reach fs.fstat/createReadStream as a plain number. The kFileResponseFinal idempotency guard removal was checked against a double-entry scenario (respondWithFile then respondWithFD, or two respondWithFD calls): processRespondWithFD calls this.respond() first, which throws ERR_HTTP2_HEADERS_SENT (line ~3555) on the second entry, so closeWritableForFileResponse and _final.bind are never reached twice on one stream.

Beyond the inline finding, I also checked the removed FileHandle import: respondWithFD still unwraps fd.fd by duck-typing at src/js/node/http2.ts:3428 before anything else runs, so FileHandle callers are unaffected and the import was dead. The new destroyed || closed recheck after statCheck is present in both doSendFD and doSendFileFD, so the two sibling paths agree on that guard.

Extended reasoning...

The inline finding on the oversized-length range at http2.ts:3130 stands on its own. Two other things were examined and ruled out from the diff: the deleted require("node:fs/promises").$data.FileHandle import is dead because the fd argument is already unwrapped via typeof fd.fd === "number" at the top of respondWithFD (line 3428), so no FileHandle acceptance was lost; and the latest commit adds this.destroyed || this.closed after the statCheck call in both doSendFD and doSendFileFD, so a statCheck that closes the stream no longer falls through to processRespondWithFD on either path. The earlier inline notes about doSendFileFD passing options rather than statOptions to statCheck and the negative content-length for an offset past EOF are unchanged by this push and remain as previously posted.

[claude]

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):

• 🟣 src/js/node/http2.ts — pre-existing: a server that passes :status as a string ("204", "205", "304") to respondWithFD() or respondWithFile() gets no error on bun, while node throws ERR_HTTP2_PAYLOAD_FORBIDDEN. The check at http2.ts:3448-3457 compares the raw header value with === against numeric constants, so a string status never matches. respond() later coerces it (http2.ts:3636), forces endStream, and the file is then read and dropped chunk by chunk. Fix: coerce the status before the payload check in both preambles, as node does with headers[HTTP2_HEADER_STATUS] |= 0, so the string and number forms of 204/205/304 both throw. Same pattern at 2 sites (http2.ts:3389, http2.ts:3448).

  Extended reasoning...

  Handler runs stream.respondWithFD(fd, { ":status": "304" }) or stream.respondWithFile(path, { ":status": "304" }). Header objects with string values are common when a server forwards or builds headers generically.
  http2.ts:3448 reads statusCode = headers[HTTP2_HEADER_STATUS], which is the string "304".
  http2.ts:3452-3455 test statusCode === HTTP_STATUS_NO_CONTENT etc.; every comparison is false for a string, so no ERR_HTTP2_PAYLOAD_FORBIDDEN is thrown.
  http2.ts:3474 calls processRespondWithFD synchronously; http2.ts:3083 calls respond().
  http2.ts:3636 does headers[HTTP2_HEADER_STATUS] |= 0, giving 304; http2.ts:3649-3665 then force endStream, send HEADERS with END_STREAM and call this.end() at 3697, which runs the real _final.
  Back in processRespondWithFD, http2.ts:3098 rebinds _final and ends the writable again (a no-op), then http2.ts:3114-3156 opens the read stream and pipes the whole file into the sink; each chunk hits the stream.closed guard at 3131 or the native can_send_data() check (h2_frame_parser.rs:5887) and is discarded.
  Result: the peer gets a bodiless 304, the file…

  Verification: pre-existing. Trigger: a handler calls stream.respondWithFD(fd, { ":status": "304" }) (or "204"/"205"), or respondWithFile(path, { ":status": "304" }) — a string status, which node accepts and coerces. Mechanism verified in /home/claude/bun/src/js/node/http2.ts: respondWithFD reads const statusCode = headers[HTTP2_HEADER_STATUS]; at line 3448 with no coercion, then tests…

[robobun]

About the string :status finding ("204", "205", "304" pass the payload check): #43526 already covers it. It adds node's prepareResponseHeadersObject to the start of respondWithFile() and respondWithFD(), so statusCode is the coerced number before the ERR_HTTP2_PAYLOAD_FORBIDDEN check. This PR does not change how the two methods read :status, so I did not copy that change here.

Close the owned descriptor when statCheck throws.

If options.statCheck throws, doSendFileFD() exits before the following tryClose(fd) branch. The descriptor is not transferred to processRespondWithFD(), so its later autoClose handling cannot run. Catch the callback error, call tryClose(fd), and rethrow it. If the process continues, repeated requests can exhaust file descriptors.

About the finding that doSendFileFD leaks the descriptor when statCheck throws: fixed in 19e8183. The statCheck call is now in a try. On a throw, doSendFileFD closes the descriptor that respondWithFile() opened and throws the same error again, so the uncaught exception is unchanged.

A repro with an uncaughtException handler and three requests left 3 descriptors open on the file with node v26.3.0, bun 1.4.3 and this branch before the change. The new test runs that repro in a child process and expects 0.

doSendFD does not need the same change. The descriptor there belongs to the caller of respondWithFD().

[claude]

I re-reviewed the two commits pushed since my last pass and found no new bugs; because this is a behavioral rework of a node: compat path with several other open PRs on the same lines, a human look before merging is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

• The end clamp in processRespondWithFD (src/js/node/http2.ts:3122): fs.createReadStream validates end via validateInteger(end, "end", 0) with the default MAX_SAFE_INTEGER ceiling, so the clamped value is accepted and reads to EOF.
• The new try/catch around statCheck in doSendFileFD (http2.ts:3037-3043): checked the sibling doSendFD for the same gap — it never owns the descriptor, so a throwing statCheck there leaks nothing.
• The createReadStream catch at http2.ts:3125: ReadStream throws from validateInt32(fd)/validateInteger(start|end) before touching the descriptor, so tryClose(fd) there cannot double-close an owned fd.
• Non-idempotent closeWritableForFileResponse: only reachable after respond() succeeds, which sets headersSent and makes every later entry throw ERR_HTTP2_HEADERS_SENT first.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

The PR splits the single doSendFileFD in src/js/node/http2.ts into doSendFD (respondWithFD with a statCheck), doSendFileFD (respondWithFile, always owns the fd), and a shared processRespondWithFD(options, fd, headers, offset, length, ownsFd) that mirrors node's processRespondWithFD + startFilePipe. respondWithFD() without a statCheck now initiates the response synchronously and no longer calls fstat; the kOwnsFd per-stream flag becomes an explicit parameter; the dead FileHandle import is removed (the duck-typed fd.fd unwrap at the top of respondWithFD still handles FileHandles). The test file adds ~430 lines covering the sync-headers contract, an offset/length matrix with and without statCheck, bad/directory descriptors, zero-length + wantTrailers, closed-stream throws, statCheck closing the stream, and two Linux-only /proc/self/fd descriptor-leak checks.

Security risks

No auth, crypto, or credential paths are touched. The main hazard class here is descriptor lifetime: an fd opened by respondWithFile must be closed exactly once on every exit, and a caller-owned fd from respondWithFD must never be closed. I traced every exit of doSendFileFD and processRespondWithFD with ownsFd true and each either hands the fd to a ReadStream with autoClose: true or calls tryClose(fd) exactly once; the new createReadStream catch is safe because ReadStream's constructor validates fd/start/end before any fd handling. Range math is truncated with Math.trunc(x) || 0 before use, and the end value is clamped so unsafe integers cannot reach validateInteger.

Level of scrutiny

This deserves a human maintainer's look rather than an automated approval. It is a ~166-line semantic rework of user-facing node-compat behavior (sync vs. async header emission, error delivery changing from respond-then-reset to destroy(err), length: 0 now meaning an empty body for respondWithFD, content-length no longer added by respondWithFD). The PR description itself lists at least eight other open PRs that touch the same functions (#43463, #43550, #33380, #41516, #38644, #43453, #43526, #43478, #43491), so whichever lands second needs a rebase and someone coordinating these should decide ordering. Node's doSendFD uses | 0 on offset/length where this port uses Math.trunc; that only diverges for values above 2^31 and the port's behavior is the more sensible one, but it is a deliberate deviation a maintainer may want to be aware of.

Other factors

All inline findings from earlier runs were resolved by the PR author; the commits pushed since (8d4412a1, 19e8183e) do contain the corresponding code changes (the end clamp with a test row, and the statCheck try/catch with a spawned-process descriptor-count test), so I judged those threads addressed from the code rather than from the resolution metadata. The bug hunt exited on a dry streak with no findings. I did not run a debug build in this session; the PR reports the full http2 suite and all 256 test-http2-* node tests passing on the debug build, which a human reviewer can confirm via CI.

[robobun]

A note on the overlap with #43587.

After this PR, processRespondWithFD still calls options.onError when respond() rejects the headers, and it does so for respondWithFD() too. Node v26.3.0 never reads onError in respondWithFD(). The test in #43587 fails on this head at its rows with rejected headers.

If this PR lands first, I will cut #43587 down to that one condition (call onError only when ownsFd) plus its test. A header error in respondWithFile() must keep its onError call for now. respond() still rejects header values that Node accepts, for example undefined, and #41614 changes that. The notes of #43587 have the repro.

Merged main (a4f1429) into the branch in a2f8756. The branch was 138 commits behind and had one conflict.

• The conflict was in closeWritableForFileResponse (src/js/node/http2.ts). Typecheck the built-in modules (src/js) in CI #43649 changed stream._final = null to (stream as { _final: unknown })._final = null for the typecheck. This PR removed the if (final === undefined) guard, because the function has one caller now. The merged function has this PR's body and the cast of Typecheck the built-in modules (src/js) in CI #43649.
• One more line changed, types only: this.destroy(err) in processRespondWithFD is now this.destroy(err as Error). The function declares this: ServerHttp2Stream, so the typecheck that Typecheck the built-in modules (src/js) in CI #43649 added to CI rejected the unknown of the catch. tsc --noEmit -p src/js/tsconfig.json reports no error in http2.ts.
• The tests that main added to node-http2.test.js (node:http2: check session options at every entry point like node #43584, Typecheck the built-in modules (src/js) in CI #43649, node:http: the server follows Node (request body, framing, response finish, lifecycle) #43557) merged with no conflict.

Run on the debug build of a2f8756 (Linux x64, ASAN):

• test/js/node/http2/node-http2.test.js: 402 pass, 6 skip, 0 fail.
• All 256 test/js/node/test/parallel/test-http2-*.js: pass. test-http2-forget-closed-streams.js needs 91 s and passes alone.
• The 22 node tests that call respondWithFile or respondWithFD: pass.
• One descriptor served 20 times (second repro in the status comment): 20 whole responses in 6 of 6 cells. bun 1.4.3 gives 1 whole and 19 empty in 6 of 6.

The machine had a load average above 600 during these runs, so I ran the test file with --timeout 60000.
