Fixes #45252

Problem

• worker.terminate() while the worker is inside an N-API addon's module Init (import 'sharp' in a Worker) aborts the process: panic: NAPI FATAL ERROR: Error::Error napi_define_properties.
• NAPI_PREAMBLE (src/jsc/bindings/napi.cpp:101) checked for a pending exception with JSC's RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION, which services the VM's traps. It threw the termination into the VM under addon frames. The readers reported an exception the addon could not clear, and node-addon-api escalated to napi_fatal_error.

Fix

• One entry check, NapiEnv::entryStatus, for NAPI_PREAMBLE, NAPI_PREAMBLE_NO_THROW_SCOPE_GATED and the Rust preamble!. It reads the exception slot raw, in Node's order: a readable exception, then the can_call_into_js() gate. A pending termination answers as the closed gate does.
• napi_is_exception_pending and napi_get_and_clear_last_exception never report a termination. Node delivers one only where script runs. Every trampoline an addon returns to already services the trap.
• Verified: test/napi/napi.test.ts, "worker.terminate() during gated calls" (4 cases, the fixture's probe line compared to node's) and "inside script entered from an addon" (2 Bun-only cases). Stock bun fails all 6. Also the napi, v8, ffi/cc and @napi-rs suites, and the sharp repro.
• Self-reviewed: 2 concerns raised, 2 addressed (a deterministic test for the readers, and a redundant latch check removed). The napi_run_script latch path is left as is: it is a mid-body site, and napi: test what napi_get_and_clear_last_exception hands out after a failed napi_run_script #41704 owns what that latch holds.

Background

• V8 never delivers a termination inside a native API call. JSC's RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION does. Bun's ungated value constructors already avoid it with DeferTraps. The gate's timing matches Node.
• Considered fixing the readers only: napi_throw then answers napi_pending_exception where a NAPI_VERSION >= 10 addon expects napi_cannot_run_js. DeferTraps over gated bodies makes script the addon enters un-terminable.
• PR napi/v8: never leave a JS exception on the VM while addon code runs #40249 (@dylan-conway) reads the slot raw in the same places, inside a larger boundary model that also converts the mid-body checks. This PR takes those two edits and adds the gate-status mapping. napi/v8: never leave a JS exception on the VM while addon code runs #40249 can then rebase on top as the follow-up for the rest.

Downsides

• About 95 mid-body JSC checks in napi.cpp (18 NAPI_CHECK_TO_OBJECT, the NAPI_RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION family, napi_define_properties:1043 among them), the Rust JsResult wrappers and 43 V8-shim sites still service the trap. A call already inside its body when the stop lands answers with that check's status (napi_object_expected or napi_pending_exception), nothing pending. The next call is refused at entry. node-addon-api survives both.
• Per call, nothing new: the napi_set_named_property entry path (napi.cpp at -O3, objdump) is 34 instructions, 13 loads, 9 branches before and after. napi.cpp.o text 156686 to 155807 bytes. Release binaries were not built here.
• Readers' exception-present path: napi_is_exception_pending 45 to 51 instructions, napi_get_and_clear_last_exception 73 to 75.

Notes

Repro (/tmp/repro45252, the reporter's files): release bun aborts within a few dozen iterations of bun main2.ts 300 20 200. Under the debug build sharp loads in 2 to 3 s, so bun-debug main2.ts 50 1200 3200. Both run clean with this change. The pipeline variant (terminate after ready, while resize jobs run) also aborted on main from napi_async_work::run_from_js and NapiClass_ConstructorFunction frames and runs clean now.

Node's can_call_into_js() is false once is_stopping is set, and Environment::ExitEnv sets that from the parent thread at terminate() time. Bun's VmHandle::stop() does the same (Open -> Stopping).

The order of the entry check is Node's NAPI_PREAMBLE: last_exception first, then the gate. Bun keeps the exception on the VM slot instead of a latch, so the slot read stands in for last_exception. A pending termination maps to napi_cannot_run_js for NAPI_VERSION >= 10, else napi_pending_exception.

throwErrorWithCStrings lost its own slot check: the gated preamble of napi_throw_*_error runs the entry check first. The six NAPI_PREAMBLE_NO_THROW_SCOPE_GATED functions that re-checked the slot through a ThrowScope right after the gate (node_api_create_buffer_from_arraybuffer, napi_create_dataview, napi_create_buffer, napi_create_buffer_copy, napi_run_script, napi_create_bigint_words) lost that second, trap-servicing check for the same reason. So did node_api_create_external_sharedarraybuffer's latch re-check after NAPI_PREAMBLE.

conclude_deferred (napi_resolve_deferred / napi_reject_deferred) runs the entry check inside complete_in_context, after the context liveness check, where the gate check already was. A null deferred now answers napi_invalid_arg, as Node's CHECK_ARG does, instead of a null dereference (review finding).

The trampolines with a trap-servicing check after the addon returns: BunProcess.cpp:784, napi.cpp executePendingNapiModule, NapiClass.cpp:68, napi_body.rs tsfn call_js and async-work complete.

Measurements: napi.cpp compiled alone with the debug build's compile command minus sanitizers, -O0, -g, ASSERT_ENABLED, BUN_DEBUG, plus -O3 -DNDEBUG, before and after. On the napi_set_named_property entry path the m_trapBits load and branch become the m_exception load and branch. The Rust preamble drops from two FFI calls to one. No allocation or syscall is added (the check reads three fields).

Readers and a termination thrown in script: Node's v8impl::TryCatch stores null as last_exception for a termination, so Node reports an exception pending and hands out null. Bun reports nothing pending and leaves the termination on the VM, consistent with the entry check. The "inside script entered from an addon" cases pin that, Bun only.

The v10 fixture makes no node-addon-api call: node-addon-api 8.0.0 (the version in test/napi/napi-app) swallows only napi_pending_exception in ThrowAsJavaScriptException, so a NAPI_VERSION=10 addon built with NODE_API_SWALLOW_UNTHROWABLE_EXCEPTIONS aborts on Node too with that version. The raw probe line (status 23, napi_throw 23, nothing pending) is what newer node-addon-api checks for. The fixture probes the gate's refusal: a call already inside its body when the stop lands is answered by a mid-body check (see Downsides), and the next call is the gate's answer. The probe file stays in the test's directory, so a crash still leaves the line in the failure.

Noted for later, out of scope here: mid-body JSC checks under a node:vm timeout (Open state); the V8 shim's RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION sites; executePendingNapiModule lacks the throwPendingException() the dlopen path has.

Two node-napi-tests files (test_finalizer/test_fatal_finalize.js, test_reference/test.js) time out at 5 s under the debug build on main as well.

Walkthrough

C++ and Rust N-API entry checks now combine pending-exception and VM termination status. Exception readers omit VM termination exceptions. New tests cover worker termination during addon initialization, gated calls, and script execution for N-API versions 9 and 10.

Changes

N-API termination handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Unified N-API entry status src/jsc/bindings/napi.h, src/jsc/bindings/napi.cpp, src/runtime/napi/napi_body.rs	C++ and Rust preambles now use a combined entry-status check. The check distinguishes pending exceptions, VM termination exceptions, and a closed JavaScript-call gate.
Termination results and scoped APIs src/jsc/bindings/napi.cpp, src/runtime/napi/napi_body.rs	N-API exception readers omit VM termination exceptions. Several APIs remove additional entry-time exception checks. Deferred settlement uses the combined entry-status check before settlement.
Worker termination probes test/napi/napi-app/binding.gyp, test/napi/napi-app/terminate_probe_addon.cpp, test/napi/napi-app/terminate-probe-worker.js, test/napi/napi-app/module.js, test/napi/napi.test.ts	N-API v9 and v10 probe addons record gate and exception results during worker termination. Tests cover termination during addon initialization and method calls, and termination during script execution.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #45252 requires worker termination during N-API addon initialization to stop the worker without aborting the process. NapiEnv::entryStatus reads the VM exception slot without servicing termination, then applies the call gate. The C++ preambles and Rust preamble! use this check. The new tests cover N-API versions 9 and 10 during module initialization and gated method calls, including process survival and the expected refusal status. The tests also cover the reported addon-entered script case.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changed entry checks, exception readers, Rust preamble, probe addon, and tests directly support issue #45252. The removal of duplicate trap-servicing checks prevents termination from becoming a readable addon exception. The deferred-settlement null check and unified entry status support the same N-API entry behavior. The PR leaves documented mid-body checks and the napi_run_script latch path unchanged. No unrelated change is demonstrated.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the C ABI rename: NapiEnv__entryStatus is declared in src/runtime/napi/napi_body.rs and defined in src/jsc/bindings/napi.cpp with matching signatures, and no callers of the removed NapiEnv__hasPendingException / NapiEnv__checkCanCallIntoJS exports, NAPI_RETURN_IF_CANNOT_CALL_INTO_JS macro, or has_pending_exception / check_can_call_into_js helpers remain under src/. The six NAPI_RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION_WITH_SCOPE deletions each sit directly after a gated preamble that now performs the same slot read, so no entry check was lost there.

Extended reasoning...

The change replaces the two-step N-API entry check with a single NapiEnv::entryStatus in napi.h, rewires the C++ preamble macros, the Rust preamble! and conclude_deferred to it, makes the two exception readers ignore termination exceptions, and adds a terminate-probe addon fixture plus tests. It touches no auth, crypto, or injection surface, but it alters process-abort behavior under worker termination for every N-API addon, and six verified findings are posted inline, so a human look is warranted regardless of this note.

Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.

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

• 🟣 src/jsc/bindings/napi.cpp — Addons that run script through napi_run_script still get a worker.terminate() handed back as a readable pending exception, the state this PR exists to remove. napi.cpp:3063 latches the termination JSC::Exception returned by JSC::evaluate into m_pendingException. From then on napi.h:527 answers every gated call with napi_pending_exception (NAPI_VERSION>=10 included, where Node answers napi_cannot_run_js), napi.cpp:1359 reports an exception pending, and napi.cpp:1395-1397 hands the Exception cell itself out to the addon. Fix: at napi.cpp:3063 do not latch a termination exception (leave it on the VM, return cannotCallIntoJSStatus()), so napi_run_script joins the gated-call matrix the PR tests.

  Why this was flagged

  Trigger: a Worker calls an addon that evaluates script via napi_run_script, and worker.terminate() (or a vm timeout) lands while that script runs. JSC::evaluate at napi.cpp:3060 returns the termination in returnedException, and napi.cpp:3063 stores that JSC::Exception cell with env->scheduleException. The new entry check at napi.h:527 returns napi_pending_exception on m_pendingException before it ever looks at the termination branch at napi.h:531, so a NAPI_VERSION>=10 addon gets napi_pending_exception instead of napi_cannot_run_js, and napi_is_exception_pending at napi.cpp:1359 says true. node-addon-api then calls napi_get_and_clear_last_exception, which at napi.cpp:1395-1397 falls through to the latch and returns the raw JSC::Exception cell as a napi_value. The base latched the same way, but this PR's gated-call test matrix (test/napi/napi.test.ts 'worker.terminate() during gated calls') leaves this gated site uncovered. Remedy: skip the latch for vm.isTerminationException(returnedException) at napi.cpp:3063 and return cannotCallIntoJSStatus().

  Verification: Pre-existing. src/jsc/bindings/napi.cpp:3060-3064 latches whatever JSC::evaluate returns in returnedException, including the termination exception, into m_pendingException. napi.h:527-529 checks m_pendingException before the termination mapping at napi.h:530-534, so gated calls answer napi_pending_exception; napi.cpp:1359 reports an exception pending; napi.cpp:1395-1397 hands the Exception cell to the addon. The diff does not touch the latch.

src/runtime/napi/napi_body.rs:1710
🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add an owner for a deferred refused by terminal termination.

conclude_deferred leaves deferred allocated when entry_status() refuses inside a live context. complete_in_context does not reclaim it. A caller that cannot retry therefore leaks Deferred and its JSPromiseStrong.

Do not consume the pointer based only on the returned status. For N-API versions below 10, terminal termination and a pending exception both return napi_pending_exception. The Node-API contract guarantees release after successful settlement, but does not establish that a failed settlement is retryable. Define ownership for refused settlement while distinguishing terminal termination from a retryable pending exception.
