Review comments at @scripts/build/codegen.ts:
- Around line 879-889: Add a configure-time collision check where `stems` are
derived from `sources.bindgen`. Reject any duplicate generated stem and include
both conflicting `.bind.ts` source paths and the generated stem in the error;
keep the existing output generation unchanged for unique stems.
Review comments at @src/codegen/bindgen-lib-internal.ts:
- Line 1113: Update FunctionDefinition to sort signatures by requiredCount in
descending order, matching the generated dispatcher’s selection key; also revise
the nearby ordering comment to describe most required arguments first.
Review comments at @src/jsc/bindgen.rs:
- Around line 339-353: Update the detached-buffer check in JsValue::with_bytes
to use ArrayBuffer::is_detached(), while preserving the existing shared-buffer
rejection. This must return None for detached buffers, including those with a
null pointer and zero length.
Review comments at @test/internal/bindgen.test.ts:
- Around line 97-100: In the repeated-string cases in the bindgen test, replace
`.repeat` with `Buffer.alloc(count, fill).toString()` for the ASCII values
`"a"`, `"b"`, and `"x"`. Keep `.repeat` for the multibyte `"é"` and `"你"` values
so their character counts remain unchanged.

Replaces bindgen v1 (
src/codegen/bindgen.ts,bindgen-lib*.ts) and bindgen v2 (src/codegen/bindgenv2/) with one generator that also does classes, and ports every user of the two. It is meant to be the one the remaining Rust binding mechanisms (.classes.ts,#[host_fn],$rust/$newRustFunction, hand-declared externs) move to. The body of a binding is always Rust: functions written in C++ ($cpp/$newCppFunction, hand-written host functions) are not covered.A
.bind.tsschema generates the C++ that checks and converts arguments with JSC's own API, the Rust that receives them already converted (v1 and v2 generated no Rust: the Rust side was copied by hand), and the TypeScript typessrc/jssees.docs/project/bindgen.mdxis rewritten and describes all of it.The type vocabulary is v2's (
b.union,b.enumeration,.loose,.nullable,altNames) and the class vocabulary is.classes.ts's (construct,proto,cache,passThis,privateSymbol,builtin), except:klassstaticvalues,x_get_cached/x_set_cachedinternalFields,x_field/set_x_fieldcache: trueexport const Foo = b.enumeration("Foo", ..)export const Foo = b.enumeration(..).nullable.loose.falsyAsNull.loosemeans "coerce" everywhere elseb.String/t.UTF8String,b.ArrayBufferb.string/b.string.utf8,b.bufferSource/.bytes/.arrayBufferbuiltin: "globScanCodeGenerator"builtin: trueinternalName: "onOpen"rustName: "on_open"rustPathSSLConfig+userFacingName: "TLSOptions"TLSOptionsbun.d.ts), which is what errors call it$bindgenFn$bindgenBugs fixed

Safety
The Rust a binding is written against is
bun_jsc::bindgen(src/jsc/bindgen.rs). Three rules, enforced by the borrow checker:&mut JsScope<'a>.JsScope, so rule 1 cannot happen while it is live.JsLocal<'a>, aJSValuetied to the host call. It cannot be stored in a struct, captured by a task or sent to a thread. AStrong, or one of the class'sinternalFields, which the GC visits, holds one longer.Everything a body is lent takes its lifetime from the call: the generated thunk makes each
&[u8],JsLocalandJsWrapperwith the call's&JsHeap<'a>, so a body that declares&'static [u8]does not compile.Three known gaps:
value.to_js()gives back a plainJSValue, which is as storable as it is today;Vec<JsLocal>compiles although the GC does not look inside it; and a capability limits what goes through this API, while the older one has other ways to a&JSGlobalObject(VirtualMachine::get().global()).What the borrow checker cannot see is what happens in the generated C++ between converting an argument and entering Rust, where a later conversion can run JavaScript. There, each dictionary member is read right before it is converted; the pointer and length of
b.bufferSource.bytesare read after every other argument is converted; andb.string.utf8holds theGCOwnedDataScopethatJSString::view()returns, so JSC keeps the characters alive, the base's for a substring.What a function may do is a parameter it is given (
capabilityin the schema): nothing,&JsHeap<'a>(allocate, describe an error) or&mut JsScope<'a>(run JS). The less it can do, the more it is handed directly: a method that cannot run JS gets&self/&mut selfand&[u8]; one that can gets aJsWrapper<'a, Self>and borrows the payload for as long as nothing else can run..withValueon an argument gives both forms, the converted one for now and the value itself for whatever holds it longer.Choosing between types
A union and a set of overloads follow one rule: a value goes to the first alternative, in written order, that takes its kind. The kinds are what JSC can tell apart without running JavaScript, cheapest first: the bits of the value (
undefined,null, boolean, number), the type byte in the cell's header (string,Stringobject, array,ArrayBuffer, view, BigInt), then theClassInfoof a class. A type that coerces or reports its own error (a dictionary, an enumeration,.loose, a range,b.any) takes every kind, so it goes last. A type that refuses some values of its kinds (a shared buffer, a detachedBlob) passes those on to the next alternative.From that the generator writes one decision per union or per overloaded argument (examples 4 to 6 above): whether the value is a cell, once; tests on the type byte, then class checks; no test for a kind that is treated as everything else is. An alternative or a signature that no value can reach is an error when the schema is loaded. Nothing looks at the number of arguments: one that was not passed is
undefined, for a conversion and for choosing a signature alike.b.overloadsis for functions, not yet for the methods of a class.Strings as UTF-8, dictionaries and unions are converted in the place they end up in.
JSStringUTF8Viewis neither copyable nor movable, so the compiler holds every schema to that.Classes
The Rust struct is stored inside the JS cell (
Bun::Bindgen::JSWrapper<Traits>), after its internal fields, so a wrapper and its payload have one lifetime and one allocation. The Rust constructor runs before the cell exists, and nothing runs between the allocation and the write of the payload. The collector reads the internal fields and nothing else: no Rust runs on its threads, so there is nohasPendingActivityorestimatedSizecallback to get wrong.The receiver check reads the cell and nothing else. A wrapper has the type byte
Globalready had (JSDOMWrapperType), every cell with that byte is aJSDestructibleObject, and that holds itsClassInfo, sodynamicDowncastis a byte compare and a pointer compare with noStructureload.Performance
Measured on CI's own release binaries (
bun-linux-x64): the merge basef2405c382(build 126282) against52f5c7a0e(build 126343). Each operation runs N and 4N times in fresh processes underperf stat; the difference divided by 3N is the cost per call, without startup or JIT warm-up. Minimum of 7 interleaved rounds, pinned to a core reserved with a systemd cpuset, its SMT sibling idle,BUN_JSC_useConcurrentJIT=0. The control is the merge base against a copy of itself: within 0.1% on instructions except the twoBun.gcrows (0.4% and 2.3%), within 3.3% on cycles. Every operation printed the same result on both binaries.server.reload({ socket }), 7 handlers andbinaryTypeglob.match, 14 ASCII charactersnew Bun.Glob(pattern)glob.match, UTF-16glob.match, Latin-1glob.scanSync({ 6 options }), empty directoryBun.listen(..).stop()Module._stat, UTF-16 pathglob.scanSync({ cwd }), 4 filesos.homedir()glob.scanSync(cwd), empty directoryos.getPriority(pid)Module._stat, ASCII pathBun.gc(true)with 200,000 liveGlobsos.version()Bun.$.braces(str, options)os.setPriority(priority)glob.match, 200 ASCII charactersos.userInfo({ encoding })No different from the merge base, that is, inside the control's spread on cycles:

Globtakes 143 to 144 bytes where it took 203 to 205 (500,000 of them, 7 runs of each binary). The anonymous memory of an empty script is the same, 6,132 to 6,136 kB on all three binaries.Where it comes from:
Identifiers made once per VM. v1 and v2 calledIdentifier::fromStringper member per call;Globlooked each option up by name from Rust.JSObject::getDirect, which is the whole answer because the lookup stops beforeObject.prototype. Each is read right before it is converted, and whether the shortcut still holds is asked each time.b.string.utf8is the string's own bytes when it is 8-bit ASCII, otherwise a 128-byte buffer in the frame. A body that stores the string asks forb.string.utf8.ownedinstead and gets aUtf8Bytes<'static>that shares the buffer. The view is built in its final slot and cannot be moved.JSC::Weakhandle per object for every collection to walk, with ahasPendingActivitycall into Rust for each object not marked yet.os.totalmemare one function with no calls between them, as they were with v1.What it costs:

Every generated struct that crosses the ABI has its size and alignment asserted on both sides.bindgen v2's C++ converter library is kept: it is what fixes the error messages. What only generated code uses is in
src/jsc/bindings/Bindgen/, inBun::Bindgen; the three headersJSDOMConvert*.hbuilds on (BunIDLConvertBase.h,BunIDLConvertContext.h,BunIDLHumanReadable.h) stay beside it.Behaviour changes

test/internal/bindgen.test.ts, throughsrc/jsc/bindgen_test.bind.ts. A*_test.bind.tsschema is only part of a build with assertions (a debug build, CI's ASAN lane), so none of it ships: a release binary has no symbol and no string of it, and the file skips there. Strings (ASCII, Latin-1, UTF-16, ropes, unpaired surrogates,Stringobjects), 19 kinds of object as a dictionary that must all give the same answer, a pollutedObject.prototype, mutation between reads, by a getter and by a conversion, order and count of getter calls, buffers that are detached, shrunk or grown by a callback or by a later argument's conversion, shared memory, unions, arrays, thrown values. For classes: receiver checks, subclassing,Reflect.construct, a listener that re-enters the object, cached getters, a class withoutconstruct, a payload that holds aStrongon another object, and that the Rust value is dropped on collection. What that schema does not use (.falsyAsNull,.validateInteger,fromJS,privateSymbol,builtin) is covered by the suites of the APIs that do.test/js/node/os/os.test.js,test/js/bun/shell/brace.test.ts,test/js/bun/glob/proto.test.ts,test/js/bun/net/socket.test.ts,test/js/node/module/node-module-module.test.js.
