bundler(splitting): files run in different orders do not share a chunk - #44820
Conversation
…nt that can load it first A chunk prints its files in one order. Two entry points that can each be the first to load it can evaluate those files in different orders, and then one of them ran the wrong order with no diagnostic. Where the orders differ, the files become lazy `__esm` wrappers and each importer calls what it imports, where it imports it. What such an entry point evaluates afterwards from another chunk is wrapped too, so that it does not run ahead. A wrapped file now runs its imports in source order, and waits for the async ones once, after the last import.
…s what has changed Wrapping a file changes which entry points load it only when the file is `"sideEffects": false`. Without such a file one round finds everything.

No change in behavior. Also pins the load order in a test that starts two `import()`s at once: the one that evaluates first now decides, as from source.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked two of the refactors for behavior drift: the LoadConditions move out of merge_small_chunks in src/bundler/linker_context/mergeSmallChunks.rs is a verbatim lift (only the temp-arena slices became Vecs), and the assign_entry_bits split in src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs that drops the static/dynamic branch is equivalent on the first run (a static AutoBitSet was already empty) and the unconditional re-init is what the second run needs.
Extended reasoning...
The PR adds a new linker pass (wrapOrderConflicts.rs) and reworks wrapper emission and entry-bit assignment in LinkerContext.rs; it touches no security-sensitive surface. Six confirmed findings are posted inline, so a human review is already signalled; this note only records the two refactors I verified as behavior-preserving so a reviewer need not re-derive them.
Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.
… the bytecode snapshot `e_call_mut`, `e_await_mut`, `s_expr_mut` and `AutoBitSet::needs_dynamic` have no caller left. The bundle of `libraries.js` prints the calls of its wrappers in source order now, so its hash moves on every platform at once.
…s, pin files without a wrapper symbol
- `export * from` an async wrapper printed `init_x()` and nothing waited for it,
so an importer could read its bindings before they were set.
- An async import starts in its place. When a later import throws, the `await`
is not reached, so the call prints as `init_x()?.catch(() => {})`.
- An AST that the parser did not make has no wrapper symbol. Its group stays
unwrapped.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Beyond the inline finding, I also checked whether a CommonJS-wrapped file that statically imports a shared top-level-await module in a conflicting group could end up with an await init_x() inside its sync __commonJS closure (resolveChunkOrderConflicts.rs:308) — the pass does not change the importer's async flag, which LinkerGraph already propagates over static imports before this pass runs, so that shape is the same as a scan-time __esm wrap and is not introduced here.
Extended reasoning...
The change adds a new linker pass (resolveChunkOrderConflicts.rs), a wrap_files_as_esm helper in LinkerContext.rs, a rewrite of InsideWrapperPrefix ordering, and extracts EntryLoadGraph/compute_entry_bits; it touches no security-sensitive surface. One confirmed finding (the --compile --bytecode --splitting TLA regression at generateCodeForFileInChunkJS.rs:525) is posted inline, so human review is already signalled; this note only records the one additional candidate ruled out this run.
… top-level await With `--bytecode` the bundler makes each chunk's module record. `has_tla` came only from an `await` in the source of an unwrapped file, so a chunk whose only top-level await is `await init_x()` was evaluated as a sync module: the code after it never ran, and the process exited with 0. The two places that make such an `await` set the flag now.
… is async
`propagate_async_dependencies` was one post-order walk. In a cycle it read the
flag of a file it had not finished yet, and never looked again, so a file could
stay sync while the file it imports became async. Its wrapper then printed as
`__esm(() => { await init_x(); })`, a SyntaxError. The flag goes from each async
file to its importers now, and a build with no top-level await returns at once.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed the latest pushes and found no new bugs; the code now handles each point raised in my earlier inline comments (pinned groups for files without a wrapper ref, the async export *, the ?.catch(() => {}) handler, has_tla on linker-made awaits, and the importer-directed async propagation). Because this adds a new linker pass and changes the printed shape of every wrapper prefix, not only under --splitting, a human look is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
resolveChunkOrderConflicts.rsend to end: group keying by load class, the order comparison cursor, pin/lazy propagation along per-loader group orders, Tarjan SCC, and theeach_ptrwalk (distinct*mut EvaluationOrderper task, read-only context).wrap_files_as_esmagainstscan_imports_and_exportsstep 6 via the sharedadd_wrapper_dependency, including__promiseAlluse counting and the re-drained tree-shake worklist.EntryLoadGraphextraction frommerge_small_chunks— a mechanical move, logic unchanged.InsideWrapperPrefixrewrite: trailing calls folded into the singleawait, and the newpropagate_async_dependenciesworklist, which is monotone and terminates.
Extended reasoning...
The PR adds a new code-splitting linker pass (resolveChunkOrderConflicts.rs, ~550 lines), splits compute_entry_bits out of tree shaking, adds wrap_files_as_esm and add_wrapper_dependency to LinkerContext.rs, rewrites InsideWrapperPrefix so wrapper init calls print in source order with a single trailing await, replaces propagate_async_dependencies with an importer-directed worklist, moves EntryLoadGraph out of mergeSmallChunks.rs, and sets has_tla for linker-generated awaits; tests cover splitting, edgecase, compile and compile-splitting lanes. It touches no security-sensitive surface (no auth, crypto, or untrusted-input parsing); the risk is bundler output correctness. Approval is not appropriate because the change is large, alters output for every bundle with async wrapped imports regardless of splitting, and contains new unsafe raw-pointer parallelism; all earlier findings were addressed by later commits, so the body acknowledges that and asks for a human look rather than restating them.
…not run An unwrapped file runs when its chunk loads. A wrapper runs where it is called, and only an `import` that names it printed a call. A file reached through `export *` in a tree-shaken `"sideEffects": false` barrel, or through an `import` that tree shaking dropped, was never called: its bindings stayed undefined and its side effects were lost. The order model and the printer now share one definition of what an `import` statement runs.
…e what it requires The order of an entry point listed a file after everything it leads to. A split `require()` runs in the middle of the file, so what it loads comes after the file has started. When the file became a wrapper, the required module stayed as it was and ran when its chunk loaded, ahead of the file.
…does
A wrapped file that reaches a top-level await was `__esm(async () => { ... })`,
and its importers awaited the promise. That is close to module evaluation, and
differs where it shows: a file with no `await` of its own ran a microtask late,
an importer of one file of an import cycle did not wait for the cycle, and the
parents of an async file ran by the depth of their promises.
`__esmAsync(imports, body, hasTLA)` keeps what the specification keeps per module
(cycle root, pending dependencies, async parents, evaluation order) and runs each
body when the specification would. Code outside of a wrapper waits with
`await __esmWait(init_a, init_b)`, once, after the last of its imports. Files that
reach no top-level await keep `__esm`. `__promiseAll` has no user left.
- An unwrapped file whose `await` comes before a wrapper holds its call up, so it
becomes a wrapper too, also in the chunk of the one entry point that loads it.
- `import()` of an async wrapper starts it in a later job, as from source.
- A `__commonJS` wrapper cannot wait: an `import` of an async file in a CommonJS
file is a build error. It printed `await` in a sync function before.
- `find_files_to_wrap` is split by phase, and `wrap_files_as_esm` moves next to it.
The walk that lays out a chunk placed a file where it first reached it. Reached through an ESM wrapper that does not run it, a file of the entry point's own chunk printed ahead of the call of that wrapper, and its own imports ran first. In an import cycle that enters the cycle at another file. The walk goes through such a file now, as the calls do, and places it where an `import` runs it.
`entry.js` awaits `import("./b.js")`, and `b.js` imports `entry.js`. Bun runs
that from source, and the bundle ran it too. With `__esmAsync` it never ended:
`b.js` waited for `entry.js`, as the specification says.
- `import()` of an async wrapper starts it inside the call again. A file that
starts that way waits neither for the body that made the call nor for what is
in progress above it.
- A module that is ready and waits for its turn can get another parent. It
releases that parent when it has run.
- A file that waits for two wrappers, where the second throws at once, no longer
runs as a module when the first ends.
- An `import` in a CommonJS file is an error only where it calls an async
wrapper. The check ran before tree shaking and rejected dead imports.
`gather` looked each parent up in the list of ready modules, so N modules that wait for one top-level await took N * N comparisons. A mark on the module says which list has it. 20,000 such modules: 260 ms to 162 ms.

src/bundler/linker_context/mergeSmallChunks.rs— With --splitting and --min-chunk-size, a module can now run for an entry that never imports it, ahead of that entry's own code; the base printed no such call. A file whose import of a "sideEffects": false barrel now printsinit_w()(wrappers_behind_import) is still judged side-effect free at mergeSmallChunks.rs:83, and top_level_inits (:145) records no init for it, so rule 2 folds it into a chunk loaded by more entries without the needs_init guard. Fix: make loading_file_side_effects and top_level_inits consult wrappers_behind_import (count those wrappers as inits or as side effects); the same predicate also feeds inert_chunks (computeCrossChunkDependencies.rs:369) and chunk_of_file ordering (findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rs:30).Why this was flagged
Build

The {d1,d2} group is pure with empty needs_init, so rule 2 folds u.js into w's chunk {worker,d1,d2}. worker.js imports that chunk, so the chunk top level runsinit_w()and logs "w" before "before"; on the base branch (where u.js printed nothing for the import) the order is "before", "w", "1".Verification: Triggers with
--splitting --min-chunk-size, when an unwrapped file that mergeSmallChunks judges pure imports a non-live"sideEffects": falsebarrel (export * from) that re-exports from an__esm-wrapped module. mergeSmallChunks.rs:80-83 returnstruefor a Stmt record whose target haswrap == WrapKind::Nonewithout consultingwrappers_behind_import, so the group haspure == trueandneeds_init == [].
Removes `__esmAsync` and `__esmWait`, which evaluated the wrappers of async
modules in `runtime.js`. `runtime.js`, the printer and `import()` are as on main.
A file prints `init_x()` where each `import` is, and one `await` of the async
wrappers after the last:
init_a();
init_c()?.catch(() => {});
init_e();
await __promiseAll([init_c(), init_d()]);
- Every file that prints `__promiseAll` records the use, in one place. Only a
file that was a wrapper from the start did.
- An async wrapper in an import cycle ends before the file where the cycle
started. A file outside of the cycle also waits for the files where it can start.
- An `import` of an async file in a CommonJS file is no build error anymore. One
that tree shaking dropped stays dropped.
- A file that only a wrapper imports, and that the wrapper does not run, prints
where the walk first reaches it.
A file with no `await` of its own that reaches one can still run a few
microtasks later than from source. The docs say so.
…` at load of a wrapper is lazy - A file outside of an async import cycle waits for the wrappers where the cycle can start. The cycles came from a walk that also follows `import()`, so a page that imports an async file, and that the file loads with `import()`, counted as a cycle with it. An importer of the file then ran the page at startup. The cycles are now made of the `init_x()` calls that `import` statements print. - The wrappers that a file waits for are recorded once per file, and the file prints that list. - A shared file that calls a split `require()` at load can be in a chunk that runs ahead of the chunk of what it requires. When that is a wrapper, `init_x` was not defined yet. The file becomes a wrapper too.

src/bundler/LinkerGraph.rs— nit: the SAFETY argument forunsafe impl Sync for LinkerGraphno longer lists every field workers read, so the invariant it states is incomplete. The block at LinkerGraph.rs:268-287 enumerates the columns that are frozen before fan-out, but the newwrappers_behind_importandawaited_wrappersmaps (:261-265) are read on worker threads by generate_code_for_file_in_chunk_js (generateCodeForFileInChunkJS.rs:523) and should_include_part (LinkerContext.rs:517-520). Fix: add both maps to the list of fields populated before fan-out and only read by workers, so the SAFETY text matches what the code shares.Why this was flagged
src/bundler/LinkerGraph.rs:261-265 adds two HashMap fields to LinkerGraph. They are filled by find_wrappers_behind_imports (src/bundler/linker_context/findWrappersBehindImports.rs:154-158, :263-265) before chunk generation, then read concurrently by worker tasks in generate_code_for_file_in_chunk_js (src/bundler/linker_context/generateCodeForFileInChunkJS.rs:523), append_calls_of_wrappers_behind_import (src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs:2459-2462) and should_include_part (src/bundler/LinkerContext.rs:517-520).

The enumerated list at :275-277 does not include the two new maps, yet they are read on worker threads at generateCodeForFileInChunkJS.rs:523 and LinkerContext.rs:517-520. The maps are frozen before fan-out, so soundness holds.
…o not share a chunk Replaces the approach of this branch. Everything that it changed is as on main again: wrappers, tree shaking, the code generator, the layout of a chunk. A chunk prints its files in one order. Files shared a chunk when the same entry points load them. Now those entry points also have to run them back to back in the same order. Each chunk already imports the other chunks in its own order, so the engine runs the files in the order of each program. - Only files that run something when they load count, and files that import one of those. Only the entry points that can load the files first count. - A group with such a file in an import cycle stays as it is. - The rule applies after `--min-chunk-size` has folded chunks. - The imports of an entry point's chunk are ranked from the file of the entry point, which is in another chunk when another entry point imports it. - `EntryLoadGraph` moves out of `merge_small_chunks`, unchanged.
dylan-conway
changed the title
- The file of an entry point that another entry point imports is a file of a shared chunk like the others. It was left out of the rule, so it stayed behind with the runtime and imported the chunks that were split off: `__export is not a function`. - The imports of an entry point's chunk are ranked from the file of the entry point only when that file was split off. Ranking them always changed where a load enters a cycle through a `require()` at load, in builds with no split. - A file that only declares counts as a file of its chunk again when the imports of the chunk are ranked.

src/bundler/linker_context/findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rs— With --splitting --target=bun, an entry whose imported file does a top-level split require() can now run shared files in the wrong order; the base ran them right for it. reached_chunks_in_order skips CROSS_CHUNK_REQUIRE records at findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rs:911, so once the new pass splits a shared group into run chunks, the entry's cross-chunk import order ignores what the require() evaluates mid-load, while the split pass and EntryWalk order by Edge::LoadNow. Fix: rank the chunks a split require() loads at the call's position, e.g. walk with for_each_edge and enter the required entry's file in place on Edge::LoadNow; only chunks in imports_from_other_chunks are sorted, so reaching the target's own chunk is harmless.Why this was flagged
Build with --splitting --target=bun --format=esm, entries a.js =
import "./f.js"; import "./t1.js"; import "./t2.js"; console.log("a")and b.js =import "./t1.js"; import "./t2.js"; console.log("b"), f.js =require("./d.js"), d.js =import "./t2.js"; import "./t1.js"; export const d = 1, t2.js =globalThis.P = "P"; console.log("t2"), t1.js =console.log("t1", globalThis.P). The require gets CROSS_CHUNK_REQUIRE (bundle_v2.rs:2251) and d becomes a dynamic entry. EvaluationOrder::compute follows the LoadNow edge (splitChunksByEvaluationOrder.rs:353-356), so a's order is [t2, t1], b's is [t1, t2], and the pass puts t2 and t1 in two chunks. In reached_chunks_in_order for a's chunk, f's require record fails!c.is_external_dynamic_importat findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rs:911, so d's imports are never entered, giving reached = [chunk_t1, chunk_t2]. computeCrossChunkDependencies.rs:668-677 sorts a's chunk imports by that rank, so a printst1 undefined,t2,a. On the base branch, where the one shared chunk is laid out by a's EntryWalk, which does follow LoadNow, a printst2,t1 P,a. b.js is fixed by the PR; a.js is broken by it.Verification:
reached_chunks_in_order(findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rs:911) only pushes records where!c.is_external_dynamic_import, so therequire("./d.js")edge inf.jsis never followed. By contrast,EntryWalk::walk(lines 683-689) andEvaluationOrder::compute(splitChunksByEvaluationOrder.rs:353-356) do followLoadNowedges. The PR fixes entry b but regresses entry a, which was correct on base.
…ks the split-off chunks The chunk of such an entry point has no file to rank its imports from, so it lists them by chunk index. That worked where the chunk of its file imported the shared chunk for a runtime helper. After a split the helper is in another chunk, and the file ran ahead of what it imports. The imports are ranked from the file of the entry point whenever the entry point loads a split-off chunk. A group is not split when such a file is in an import cycle, where the order of the imports decides where the cycle is entered.
A group stays in one chunk, as on main, when one of its files that count: - reaches a top-level await. A chunk imports another for the bindings that it uses, so a file that imports an async file for its side effects did not wait for it. - imports a wrapped file. The call of the wrapper prints where the `import` is, ahead of the files that the next `import` runs. The `import` of a chunk runs ahead of all the code of a chunk.
…t off A split `require()` that runs at load runs files ahead of the imports that follow it. The imports of a chunk are not ranked by that, so after a split an entry point imported the chunks in another order than it runs the files. Such a group stays in one chunk, as on main. No tracked file is loaded by a `require()` now, so the walk that lists them follows `import` statements only.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed the latest push (through 753a6da) and found no new bugs; since this adds a linker pass that changes how chunk keys are formed under --splitting, a human look would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- The run assignment in splitChunksByEvaluationOrder.rs: a run of files that every order evaluates back to back can still be cut when another group's run starts between them — this yields extra chunks, not a wrong order, so it was not flagged.
- The chunk_of_file remap and the new RANKS_IMPORTS_FROM_ENTRY_POINT_FILE root in findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rs: checked whether a shared file whose only live statements are bare imports could now be run early by one entry — the ordering it ends up with matches the base.
- The EntryLoadGraph hoist out of merge_small_chunks: compared against the old inline logic; the load_class computation is unchanged apart from the moved state.
Extended reasoning...
The change adds a new code-splitting pass (splitChunksByEvaluationOrder.rs, ~385 lines) that appends a per-file run number to the JS chunk key in computeChunks.rs, adds a chunk flag in Chunk.rs consumed by findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rs, and hoists the load-class logic of mergeSmallChunks.rs into a reusable EntryLoadGraph struct, plus 13 itBundled tests, docs and a README section. It touches no security-sensitive surface (no auth, crypto, or untrusted-input parsing). The bug hunt on this push ran dry with no findings, but the change is large and reshapes chunk assignment across every --splitting build, and inline threads from the previous push remain open without independent resolution, so approval is not appropriate.
Still open from earlier reviews (2):
- Unresolved: 2 minor or pre-existing.
The numbers of the runs came from the order of one entry point. With `--min-chunk-size`, a file can fold into a group that this entry point does not import it from. It got no number, so it stayed with the files that do not count, and imported a chunk that was split off. When that chunk also used one of those files, the two chunks imported each other, and one ran ahead of the `var`s of the other.
What does this PR do?
With
bun build --splitting, a chunk that two entry points share can run its modules in the wrong order for one of them.

index.jsneedsp,qandworker.jsneedsq,p, so no order of one chunk is right for both.The change
One rule for which files share a chunk:
Each chunk already imports the other chunks in its own evaluation order, so the engine runs the files in the order of each program. Here
p.jsandq.jsget a chunk each. There are no new wrappers, andruntime.js, the printer, tree shaking and the layout of a chunk do not change.splitChunksByEvaluationOrder.rs(new) gives each file a number thatcompute_chunksadds to the chunk key.loading_file_has_no_side_effects), and files that import one of those. Files that only declare never split a chunk.load_class, which moves out ofmerge_small_chunksintoEntryLoadGraph, unchanged.--min-chunk-sizehas folded chunks.findAllImportedPartsInJSOrder.rstook "same entry bits" to mean "same chunk". They also look at the chunk now.a.jsabove, whichworker.jsimports). The chunk of the entry point then has no file to rank its imports from, and lists them by chunk index. When it loads a split-off chunk, they are ranked from the file of the entry point.Each of these does nothing when no chunk is split, so such a build prints what it prints on
main.Behavior changes
import()s that are in flight at once, whose targets run shared modules in different orders: the target that evaluates first decides the order, as from source. Onmainthe order was fixed at build time.Not fixed
mainwhen one of its counted files is in an import cycle, reaches a top-level await, or imports a wrapped file (a CommonJS module), or when a splitrequire()loads the group. Chunks import each other for the bindings that they use, not for everyimportof their files, and all the imports of a chunk run ahead of its code. So in a cycle the chunks do not run in the order of the files, a chunk does not wait for an async chunk that it only imports for its side effects, and therequire_x()that prints where animportis cannot run between two chunks. And the imports of a chunk are not ranked by what a splitrequire()runs at load.main.main.An earlier version of this PR turned the files into
__esmwrappers. That is gone, with everything that it needed.How did you verify your code works?
20 new tests in
bundler_splitting.test.ts(splitting/SharedFilesIn*). On a release build ofmain, 11 fail: the example above in six configurations, twoimport()targets, files that stay together, an entry point whose file is in another chunk, files that a fold puts in one chunk, and a file that folds into a group that is split. The other 9 say that nothing changes: one order, declarations only, files that are already loaded, an import cycle, entry points that import each other, the imports of an entry point's chunk, a top-level await, an import of a CommonJS module, arequire()at load. The last seven each failed on an earlier head of this approach.On a release build of the head,
bundler_splitting,esbuild/splittingandbundler_compile_splitting: 275 pass, 0 fail. All oftest/bundler: no test fails that does not fail on a build ofmainhere.31 small graphs (51 entry points) from earlier review and fuzzing, each run from source under Node 22, from a bundle of
mainand from a bundle of the head: 10 entry points are wrong onmainand right here, none the other way around.A differential fuzzer (not in the repo) builds random module graphs with
mainand with this branch, runs every entry point from both bundles, and compares with the source. On the head, 2,250 graphs and 9,409 comparisons: 30 are wrong onmainand right here, none the other way around. So were the two rounds of 2,250 graphs before, on the two heads before. The files of these graphs are small, so--min-chunk-sizefolds few of them. Without--splittingthe two never differ.Three rounds of 2,250 graphs on earlier heads found ten graphs that were right on
mainand wrong there, from five causes. Review found two more. Each cause has a test above, and all ten graphs now print whatmainprints or what the source prints.300 more graphs with
--splitting, on the head: 278 bundles have the bytes ofmain. Of the entry points of the other 22, 17 are wrong onmainand right here, none the other way around.Not run: build time, a debug build, Linux, Windows.
