… GOAWAY The inbound engine decodes and drops a PUSH_PROMISE once the parser has written a GOAWAY, like nghttp2's session_allow_incoming_new_stream check. It reserves no stream and sends nothing. The flag reaches the engine between reads, which is when nghttp2 serializes a submitted GOAWAY. HEADERS that would open an even stream on such a client are decoded and dropped too, so the response to a dropped promise cannot open a stream that close() then waits for. After close(), the JS layer refuses a PUSH_PROMISE that follows in the same read with RST_STREAM(REFUSED_STREAM), as node's onSessionHeaders does.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline findings, two adjacent concerns were checked and ruled out: RST_STREAM arriving on a discarded promised id still fails the session as an idle-stream error (matching node's behaviour per the PR's own table), and an Ignored header block skips the post-decode rejected/malformed teardown only in the same way the pre-existing Refused and StreamClosed dispositions already do (connection.rs:1247-1268), so it does not weaken an existing limit.
Extended reasoning...
Findings were reported inline, so this body records only what else was examined. The handle_push_promise ignore path still routes the block through finish_or_park_header_block, whose decode loop enforces max_list_size/max_pairs and HPACK errors (COMPRESSION_ERROR GOAWAY) before the disposition check; the early return false for Ignored mirrors the existing Refused and StreamClosed arms, so the change introduces no new bypass relative to those. The RST_STREAM-on-discarded-id path is untouched by the diff and remains an idle-stream connection error, which the PR description itself documents as node's behaviour.

src/runtime/api/bun/h2_frame_parser.rs— Clients on a JS transport still get a 'stream' event for a PUSH_PROMISE the peer sends in reply to their goaway(); node discards it. The drain loop at h2_frame_parser.rs:3678-3685 feeds rewrite_tail into the engine with the goaway_sent snapshot taken at 3572, before goaway() ran. Fix: refresh engine.goaway_sent from the cell before every receive() of queued tail bytes (3685 and the combined path at 3662), since those bytes are the peer's answer to the GOAWAY already on the wire. nghttp2 sets GOAWAY_SENT when it serializes the frame, before the transport write, so node processes the reply with the flag set. [also at: src/runtime/api/bun/h2_frame_parser.rs:3572 - Clients on a JS-backed transport still get a session 'stream' event for a push the server sent after reading their goaway(), so the fix does not apply to them.]Extended reasoning...
A client uses createConnection with a Duplex whose peer runs in-process (duplexPair, an http2-over-anything tunnel, a test harness). A 'response' listener calls session.goaway(). H2FrameParser::send_go_away at 2207 sets the cell and writes the GOAWAY; the JS write handler pushes it to the peer synchronously. The peer's 'data' handler runs synchronously (push into a flowing Readable with an empty buffer) and writes PUSH_PROMISE back. That lands in rewrite_read at 3553 while the engine cell is borrowed, so 3560-3562 queue it into rewrite_tail. The outer receive returns; the loop at 3678 takes the tail and calls engine.receive at 3685. engine.goaway_sent was copied once at 3572, before goaway() ran, so it is still false. handle_push_promise at connection.rs:1730 reads ignored = false, reserves the stream, on_push_promise fires, JS streamPush at http2.ts:4977 sees #closeCalled false (goaway, not close) and emits 'stream'. On node the GOAWAY is serialized in SendPendingData before the JS transport write, so GOAWAY_SENT is set when the reply arrives and the…
Verification: pre-existing (the base branch accepts every PUSH_PROMISE after goaway(); this PR's fix simply does not reach the reentrant-tail path, so merging makes nothing worse — but the compat gap the PR claims to close stays open on JS transports). Trigger: a client over a JS Duplex (createConnection/duplexPair) whose in-process peer answers the GOAWAY synchronously with a PUSH_PROMISE while the outer…
rewrite_read drains the bytes that a re-entrant read() queued without a new copy of the GOAWAY flag. Over a JS transport the peer's answer to the GOAWAY can arrive that way, when a later call in the same listener flushes the GOAWAY. The drain loop now copies the flag before each receive().
node's RST_STREAM(REFUSED_STREAM) for a stream that it refuses after close() never reaches the wire: nghttp2 closes that stream when it sends the GOAWAY, which is queued first. The streamPush handler now refuses the stream without a frame, and the same-read close() case asserts that the client writes no RST_STREAM.

On the three findings of the review:
The later note about the close() refusal test is also answered in its thread: node never puts that RST_STREAM on the wire, so 3f1349d refuses the stream without a frame and the test asserts that no RST_STREAM leaves. All 11 new cases pass on node v26.3.0 and on the debug build. 9 fail on bun 1.4.3. |

Problem
node:http2client that sent GOAWAY (close()orgoaway()) still accepts a PUSH_PROMISE. Bun emits the session'stream'event and delivers the push. node v26.3.0 emits nothing. Afterclose(), a promise with no response keeps the session open.Connection::handle_push_promise(src/runtime/api/bun/h2/connection.rs:1648) always reserves the promised stream. The engine does not see the GOAWAY, becauseH2FrameParser::send_go_awaywrites it.Fix
send_go_awaysets a flag, andrewrite_readcopies it toConnection::goaway_sentbefore each read. Thenhandle_push_promisedecodes the block and drops it: no stream, no'stream'event, no reply. nghttp2 does the same: "We just discard PUSH_PROMISE after GOAWAY was sent".close()waited for. node fails the session there (see Notes).close(), thestreamPushhandler refuses the push, like node'sonSessionHeaders. It sends no frame.test/js/node/http2/h2-conformance.test.ts(11 new cases: 9 fail on 1.4.3, 11 pass on node v26.3.0). Alsotest/js/node/http2/and 256 nodetest-http2-*tests. Self-reviewed: 5 concerns raised, 4 addressed.Background
Connectionis the inbound HTTP/2 engine.H2FrameParserembeds it, encodes the outbound frames, and calls the JS handlers (streamPush).Notes
Repro. A raw TCP HTTP/2 server waits for the client's GOAWAY. Then it writes, in one
socket.write: SETTINGS ACK, PUSH_PROMISE (parent 1, promised 2), HEADERS END_STREAM on 1. The client callsclient.goaway()orclient.close()in its'connect'listener while request stream 1 is open.On node and on this branch the client writes nothing but its GOAWAY.
The new tests on node v26.3.0. I ran the eleven test bodies of the new
describeblock on node v26.3.0 without changes, with a small stand-in forbun:test(describe,test.each,expect().toEqualonassert.deepStrictEqual, a 5 s limit per test). Result: 11 pass. bun 1.4.3: 9 fail, 2 pass. The two that pass pin behaviour that must not change: thegoaway()same-read case, and the order of the two refusals afterclose(). This branch: 11 pass.What node does, by frame that follows the client's GOAWAY (same raw server, frames in a later read than the GOAWAY):
'stream'event'stream'event'stream'eventERR_HTTP2_ERROR"Protocol error", the request failsrstCode=8The one difference from node: HEADERS on the id of a dropped promise. nghttp2 does not record the dropped id, so the pushed response is HEADERS on an idle stream and node fails the session ("request HEADERS: client received request"). This engine has no idle check for client HEADERS. It opens a fresh entry for HEADERS on an id that it does not know,
on_stream_opencalls the JSstreamStarthandler, and that handler builds aClientHttp2Streamthat user code never receives and counts it in#connections.close()waits for that count. So with only the PUSH_PROMISE part of this change,close()never finished when the server sent the pushed response behind the promise. A server does that when it has not read the GOAWAY yet. The two cases "the response to a discarded PUSH_PROMISE leaves no stream open" time out without thehandle_headerspart. They assert only what node and bun both do (no pushed stream, the request settles, the session closes), so they pass on node too. RFC 9113 section 6.8 allows the discard. Each DATA frame on that id still gets RST_STREAM(STREAM_CLOSED), which is whathandle_datadoes for DATA on every stream with no entry. #42467 changes that for all such streams. #43534 (engine) and #42369 (JS) stop HEADERS from opening a client stream in general. When one of them is in, the guard here has no effect and can go.When the flag takes effect. nghttp2 raises
NGHTTP2_GOAWAY_SENTwhen it serializes the GOAWAY, and node does that after the read in whichgoaway()ran. So a PUSH_PROMISE later in the same read is still accepted. The engine flag is copied once per read for that reason, and the case "goaway() from a 'response' listener still accepts a PUSH_PROMISE in the same read" pins it over aduplexPair, where one write is exactly one read. Afterclose()node refuses a new stream in JS at once (session.closedinonSessionHeaders). Over TCP node runs the'response'listener between the frames of one read, as bun does, so the case "close() from a 'response' listener refuses ..." gives the same events on both. node queues RST_STREAM(REFUSED_STREAM) for that stream, but the frame never reaches the wire: the GOAWAY is queued first, and when nghttp2 sends it, it closes every incoming stream above the GOAWAY's last-stream-id. So thestreamPushhandler refuses the stream without a frame, and the case asserts that the client writes no RST_STREAM.Reads that re-enter a dispatch. Over a JS transport (
createConnection) the peer's answer to the GOAWAY can reach the parser inside the listener that calledgoaway(), when a later call there (settings(),request()) flushes the GOAWAY.rewrite_readqueues those bytes and drains them after the current batch. The drain loop copies the flag again before eachreceive(), because those bytes are a later read. The case "goaway() from a 'response' listener discards a PUSH_PROMISE that answers the GOAWAY" covers it.Order of the two refusals after
close(). ThestreamPushhandler checksmaxReservedRemoteStreams(CANCEL) before it checks for a closed session (REFUSED_STREAM). node has the same order, because nghttp2 applies the limit before node's JS layer sees the stream. A PUSH_PROMISE that meets both conditions gets RST_STREAM(CANCEL) on node v26.3.0 and on this branch. The case "close() from a 'response' listener leaves a PUSH_PROMISE over maxReservedRemoteStreams to CANCEL" covers it. With the two checks swapped it fails withExpected: 8, Received: 7.Self-review. Five concerns came back. Addressed: three of the first eight tests asserted behaviour that node does not have (now all nine pass on node). The flag took effect in the middle of a read, which changed the
goaway()same-read case away from node (now per read, with a test). The engine read the flag through a newSinkmethod that two open PRs also add (now a plainConnectionfield, andBlockDisposition::Ignoredhas the name and meaning that #43475 uses). The order of the checks had no test for an idle parent (added). Not changed: the review asked to fold this into draft #43475 and to drop thehandle_headersguard in favour of #43534. #43475 is the server call site of the same nghttp2 rule and is in rework. It can readConnection::goaway_sentand reuseIgnoredas they are. The guard stays because this PR must not makeclose()hang on its own (see above).Other PRs in the same function. nghttp2 checks the parent's parity, then the sent GOAWAY, then the promised id, then an idle parent. #43585 (parent checks) and #37563 (promised id order) add the checks around this one. The idle parent case above fails if the idle check runs before the GOAWAY check. An even parent after GOAWAY is a connection error on node and is dropped here until #43585 adds the parity check in front. #36230 adds the same
goaway_sentcell toH2FrameParser.Not in this PR.
