- Merge origin/main (e9fb01603); the import lines at the top of
lowerer.ts conflicted and both are kept.
- Corpus 6385 gains a wrapper whose block-local `args` alias shadows an
outer one in the same function; each call forwards its own arguments.
A method call declared to return `this`, such as setEncoding, resolves to
its receiver's access path, so a 'data' listener on the stream that
`const out = child.stdout.setEncoding("utf8")` returns receives strings.
A setEncoding call that a preceding statement always evaluates (its
expression, a variable initializer, or the receiver of a method chain in
one of those) counts as preceding the listener. Only `new` and the
child_process factories (spawn, fork, exec, execFile) count as creating a
separate stream; any other call result may be a stream another binding
already holds.
6490 covers events.once with an AbortSignal: abort, an aborted signal, an
undefined signal, abort-listener order, 'removeListener' events, a
throwing 'newListener' listener and the settlement turns. 6491 covers
stream receivers (file streams, Readable.from, a destroyed PassThrough, a
Writable) and a NodeJS.ReadableStream part raced against its destination.
6492 covers races over events.once results with entries that only reject
and entries of different value types. 6493 covers stream subclasses whose
completion callbacks are typed `Function`. 6494 covers events.once over
checked-dynamic stream slots. The node-types fixture runs the race shapes
under @types/node, where events.once returns Promise<any[]>.

- matchInferSignature reads a fixed-tuple rest as its positions, so
(...args: [string, number]) needs two arguments, and a positional
any[] pattern parameter matches only when the function's parameter
there accepts an array, as TypeScript's assignability does
(corpus 6398).
- Merge origin/main (200fe8d22); node-v24-backlog.json regenerated.
- Merge origin/main (e1c27176a).
- matchInferSignature answers false when a function needs more arguments
than a fixed-parameter pattern passes, as TypeScript's assignability
does (corpus 6398).
- Record corpus costs for the programs this change adds.
- Promise.race admits a Promise<never> entry (the deadline idiom) under
any result type: it can only reject, so its fulfillment adapter traps.
A Promise<never> executor's one-parameter resolve validates against the
void inner.
- Array(n).fill(v) and new Array(n).fill(v), which the checker types as
any[], take v's type.
- Object.entries/values over an index-signature record cast to a narrower
value type check each value into the element type instead of refusing.
- dns.LookupAllOptions and the lookup-function option union that holds it
(LookupOneOptions | LookupAllOptions | number | undefined) ride
checked-dynamic storage, and dns.lookup passes a cast of a
checked-dynamic options value through unchanged.
- npm packages: a CommonJS module that names its export object through a
variable (`var ip = exports; ip.isPrivate = ...`, the ip package) is
respelled through `exports`, and tsc output that adds a default-export
object (`exports.default = { metrics: metrics_api_1.metrics }`, the
@opentelemetry/api index) keeps its named exports linked.

Node answers a Unix-socket server's address() with its path. Programs
that call listen() with a string argument now get a Unix-aware
address(): typed `string | AddressInfo | null` (the @types/node
declaration), it answers the path; typed as the AddressInfo record alone,
which cannot hold the path, it throws for such a server, as does the
composed address().port read. Every other program keeps the record-only
lowering, so their output is unchanged.

@types/node types the transform/flush completion callback's data as any
and a child stream 'data' chunk as any, and ChildProcess accepts
(code: number, signal: string) exit and close listeners through its
catch-all overload. None of these compiled: the any-typed completion
callback crashed the LLVM emitter, and the child listeners were refused.
The completion callback's data parameter is typed Buffer | string |
undefined while the option callback lowers. Child stream 'data' listeners
with an unknown or any chunk box it as a checked-dynamic value, taking
strings when a setEncoding statement on the same stream precedes the
listener and Buffers when the function never calls setEncoding on it;
other placements are refused. Exit and close listener parameters declared
number or string bind as checked-dynamic values, so the body sees the
null Node passes.

http.request, https.request and get now accept options the compiler
cannot see as an object literal: a RequestOptions variable, a literal
that spreads one, or a literal that sets socketPath. The runtime reads
the record in the ClientRequest constructor's order with Node's errors;
documented options it does not implement throw the runtime fence when
they carry a value. https adds rejectUnauthorized, ca and servername.
socketPath dials a Unix domain socket in the net unit; the agent keys
its sockets by the path as Node's getName does, and the Host header
defaults to localhost. server.listen(path[, cb]) binds a Unix socket and
removes the socket file when the server closes; a numeric string is
still a port. Errors name the path ("connect ENOENT /path", "listen
EADDRINUSE: address already in use /path"). Windows reports ENOTSUP.
A TypeScript object literal with no contextual type that spreads a
checked-dynamic value maps to the checked dynamic, so
`const options = { ...location, path, timeout }` compiles.
A socket's 'lookup' event reaches its listeners with (err, address,
family, host) for each address a host name resolves to, or once with
the lookup error, before 'connect'. Only programs that listen for
'lookup' install the lookup records; elsewhere the hook sites are a NULL
check.
server.close((err) => ...) runs the callback with undefined at 'close',
or with ERR_SERVER_NOT_RUNNING when the server was not listening; a
server that never listened now emits 'close'. IncomingMessage 'data'
listeners may take string chunks after setEncoding, and res.end()
accepts a string-or-undefined chunk.
fetch's BodyInit and HeadersInit unions, as RequestInit-derived option
types spell them under @types/node, map to the checked dynamic, and a
URLSearchParams body is sent form-encoded, as by Node.

The fallback NodeJS stream interfaces declare Node's EventEmitter listener
signature for events beyond data/end, so checked JavaScript keeps its
contextual typing for process stream listeners. The child stdin fence
fixture becomes a differential test of the forms that now compile.

Main replaced the runtime-feature scan with a rule table, the executable
unit list with a unit table and the module emission with emit-module.ts:
perfLoop becomes a rule (perf.idleTime, perf.loop*, perf.eld*), a unit
(scr_perf_loop.c) and emit-module's loop-start mark (readsLoopMetrics is
now public). The feature lists take both perfLoop and main's webcrypto.
This branch's lower-exprs.ts hunks move to expressions/property-access.ts
(histogram readings), expressions/binary.ts (`??` with a function
default) and expressions/relational.ts (`in` over class members); the
caughtRead fallback stays in lower-exprs.ts.

- TLSSocket.isSessionReused() is declared in the fallback types and lowers
to false: the TLS client never offers a cached session (no session
resumption is a documented divergence), so no handshake resumes one.
- `o[k] ??= v`, `||=` and `&&=` through a pure index-signature record with
a string key use the keyed read and write `o[k]` and `o[k] = v` lower to.
- Object.assign(instance, record) writes the record's fields into the
class instance's declared fields (same or width-compatible types;
optional source fields only when present) and answers the instance.
- Object.assign({}, instance) whose result the checker types as the class
is refused at compile time: the copy is a plain object, so the checked
cast into the class threw at run time.

Once generic wrappers compile (#1413), the code behind them is reachable.
This closes the general gaps found there:
- performance.eventLoopUtilization() and monitorEventLoopDelay()'s
IntervalHistogram (enable, disable, reset, percentile and the min, max,
mean, stddev, count and exceeds readings), under the fallback
declarations and @types/node. A new runtime unit, scr_perf_loop.c, links
only for programs that read them (the perfLoop feature): an unref'd
sampling interval records into HdrHistogram-shaped buckets, and
utilization measures active time as the main thread's CPU time since
the loop started.
- Catch bindings narrowed by a user type predicate or an assertion read
their members through the checked-dynamic value.
- `??` with a function default of a different signature takes the
optional callback's own function type and adapts the default.
- Optional calls on interface-typed receivers dispatch like the plain
protocol call.
- `any` parameters of function declarations and spelled function types
are checked-dynamic slots, and a generic instantiated at `any` takes
`unknown` there.
- `'key' in err` on Error receivers answers from the declaring subclasses.
- Object.entries over a generic record resolves
`keyof T extends never ? unknown : T[keyof T]` through the binding.

A class that extends Writable, Readable, Duplex or Transform from node:stream compiled only against the bundled Node declarations. With @types/node in the project, which nests the classes in the module's `internal` namespace, the base was refused as "not declared in the program". The recognition now accepts either declaration of the stream module's classes.

- `if (process.send)`, `Boolean(process.send)`, `!process.send` and `typeof process.send` answer whether the process has an IPC channel (a fork channel this binary opened, or NODE_CHANNEL_FD from a Node.js parent). The same holds for process.disconnect.
- In a program without fork targets, `process.send?.(...)` answers undefined, and a direct call throws Node's TypeError when there is no channel. A Node.js parent's channel has no lowering, so a call fences when it runs. `process.send!(...)` lowers like the direct call.
- process.exitCode reads answer the assigned code, or undefined. Only programs that read it record assignments, including process.exit(code) before the 'exit' listeners run. Other programs keep the untracked write.
- A stream subclass hook may declare a supertype of Node's argument (`_write(chunk: Buffer | string, ...)`): the wrapper takes Node's Buffer and widens it.
- Promise.race accepts a Promise<void> entry when the result holds undefined.
- http.RequestOptions and https.RequestOptions as declared types ride checked-dynamic storage, like SpawnOptions.
- util.promisify over a typed callback-last function value (a bound method, a declaration, an arrow) builds a native promisified function. A truthy error rejects, the value fulfills, and a synchronous throw rejects.
- The bundled Node declarations gain the callback-only generic promisify overloads. Before this, `promisify(obj.close.bind(obj))` matched crypto.randomFill's overload and reported "Expected 1-3 arguments".

jose 6.2.12 now compiles natively through its root entry (`import { jwtVerify,
errors } from "jose"`), from TypeScript and JavaScript, with chained SignJWT
builders and string durations:
- A discarded `a && b;` / `a || b;` statement whose value form fails on its own
result type (jose's secs(): `(!m || m[4] && m[1]) && invalid()`) lowers as
`if (a) b;` / `if (!a) b;`. The value form still lowers first, so statements
that compiled before are unchanged.
- In JavaScript, a number-keyed read on a `T[] | null | undefined` value outside
an optional chain (`m[2]` after a statement ruled `m` non-null) reads the
array arm like any element read: a group that did not participate is
undefined instead of a trap.
- A JavaScript fluent method whose returns all end in `this` (including comma
sequences) narrows a used call result back to the receiver's subclass. A
receiver lowered at an ancestor of the class a call needs is bridged with a
verified downcast instead of an upcast the validator rejected (the
"upcast JWTClaimsBuilder does not extend SignJWT" internal error).
- `typeof navigator` is "object" and `navigator.userAgent` is "Node.js/24", as
in Node 24, for the free name in JavaScript and under @types/node. Both fold
to literals; other members refuse by name.
- TypeScript object destructuring of an `any` result of a JavaScript function
(jose's jwtVerify) reads its members like the member reads that already
compiled.

crypto.subtle.importKey('raw', ...) for HMAC keys, HMAC sign and verify,
and the SHA-1/SHA-2 digests compile through the crypto global, with
CryptoKey values as native handles. scr_webcrypto.c is only the WebCrypto
layer (Web IDL conversion, algorithm normalization, the CryptoKey handle,
promise wrapping and Node's TypeErrors and DOMExceptions) over node:crypto's
digest core and deferred promise queue. It links only into programs that
call these methods (the new webcrypto link feature). Other algorithms, the
jwk format and the other SubtleCrypto methods are SC2020 refusals.
The real jose@6.2.12 HS256 path (SignJWT, jwtVerify) now runs natively. It
also needed four compiler fixes: object patterns of positions and length
over arrays, the Uint8Array base64/hex feature probes, a compile-time
String.fromCharCode.apply, and structuredClone of a parameter whose default
is {}.

Resolve the dns/promises libCalls against main's util.promisify(dns.lookup)
forms: main's dns.lookupPromise/scr_dns_lookup_promise keep their
promisify semantics, and node:dns/promises moves to dns.promisesLookup /
scr_dns_promises_lookup in scr_dns_promises.c. Generated compatibility
files are main's, regenerated with pnpm manifest and pnpm node-compat.

T10 and T12 of the zero-cost compatibility plan, plus the maintainer
decisions:
- Programs that name Temporal type-check against TS 7's temporal lib
(added only for them) and lower to Node 24's answers: typeof is
"undefined", globalThis.Temporal is undefined, other uses throw
ReferenceError at the root read.
- node:v8 is importable; getHeapStatistics answers allocator-derived
figures in Node's shape; other members fence with the by-design reason.
vm's refusal says why.
- node:stream/web exports the web stream globals themselves.
- node:dns/promises and dns.promises: lookup and lookupService as
promises, in the link-gated scr_dns_promises.c unit.
- eval and the Function constructor throw Node's EvalError under
--disallow-code-generation-from-strings; the corpus harness runs the
Node oracle with that flag for `// @disallow-code-generation`.
- graceful-fs is served as node:fs.
Every new lowering replaces a refusal, and the new runtime code links only
when used, so other programs compile to identical bytes (zero-cost gate).

promisify(crypto.randomBytes), pbkdf2, scrypt, hkdf, randomFill, randomInt
and generateKey, and promisify(dns.lookup) and dns.lookupService, over a
named or namespace import, now lower. A call through the binding runs the
callback form with a runtime callback that settles the returned promise
where the callback would run: fulfilled with the callback's value, or
rejected with its error. An argument error the callback form throws rejects
the promise instead, as the throw inside Node's promisify wrapper does.
The crypto promise's value follows the declared result type: a Buffer,
the filled view (the same object), a number, or a checked-dynamic value
where @types/node declares unknown (scrypt, randomFill, randomInt) and for
ArrayBuffer and KeyObject results. The runtime adds a callback closure that
owns the promise and settle adapters for each representation, next to the
existing callback forms in scr_crypto_async.c.
dns.lookup's promise fulfills with { address, family }, or the address
array with options.all, and lookupService's with { hostname, service }, as
Node's custom promisified forms do. The runtime builds the checked-dynamic
result; a declared record type is reached through an async helper that
awaits it and checks the value. The type mapper maps the promisified
lookupService result literal like the promisified exec result.
The fallback declarations gain the matching util.promisify overloads.
exec(command, callback) and exec(command, { encoding, maxBuffer },
callback) lower like execFile's callback slice. The command line runs
with /bin/sh -c, as execSync runs it, the call returns the live
ChildProcess, and the error-first callback receives the captured utf8
stdout and stderr. A non-zero exit, including the shell's 127 for a
missing command, reports Node's "Command failed: <command>\n<stderr>":
scr_exec_file takes a shell flag so the message shows the command line.
Under @types/node, child_process.ExecException maps to Error, as
ExecFileException does. Its code member is the child's numeric exit
status, which the runtime error's string code slot does not hold, so
reading it, testing it with `in`, or testing its typeof is a named
refusal.
- URLSearchParams iterators compile outside a for-of head
- URLSearchParams can be built from [string, string] tuple pairs
- querystring.stringify writes bigint values
- StringDecoder accepts an encoding known only at run time
- os.setPriority is lowered
net.SocketAddress and net.BlockList were refused at compile time. They
are now native checked-dynamic handles in scr_net.c, so their getters
and methods also work on untyped values, and they match Node 24:
- new SocketAddress(options) checks the options in Node's order
(ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE, ERR_INVALID_ARG_VALUE for the family,
ERR_SOCKET_BAD_PORT, ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE for the flow label) and throws
ERR_INVALID_ADDRESS for an address that does not parse. parse() reads
URL.parse(`http://${input}`)'s hostname and port and answers undefined
on failure; isSocketAddress(), toJSON() and util.inspect match.
- BlockList takes address, range, subnet and CIDR rules (addAddress,
addAddresses, addRange, addSubnet, addCIDR, addCIDRs), removes them
(removeAddress, removeRange, removeSubnet, removeCIDR, clear) and lists
them in Node's order: IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses, subnets, then
ranges, each newest first, with a repeated address kept once.
- check() compares across families through the IPv4-mapped IPv6 form,
as Node's SocketAddress::compare and is_in_network do, and answers
false for a string that does not parse in the given family.
- rules, size, toJSON(), fromJSON() (Node's rule patterns), isBlockList(),
PRIVATE_RANGES, instanceof and util.inspect match, with the validation
errors of lib/internal/blocklist.js.
Corpus 5659 and the node-types fixture net-blocklist.ts cover both
classes.
The compatibility registry lists the BlockList methods and
SocketAddress.parse as supported, and both classes as partial: their
structured clone and worker transfer forms are not modeled.
promisify(zlib.deflate) and the other callback one-shots (inflate,
deflateRaw, inflateRaw, gzip, gunzip, unzip) over a named or namespace
import of node:zlib now lower. A call through the binding,
gzipAsync(data, options?), runs the callback form's work on the worker
pool and returns a promise that settles where the callback would run:
fulfilled with the Buffer, or rejected with the callback form's Error
(errno, code and message). An invalid option or input rejects the promise
instead of throwing, as the throw inside Node's promisify wrapper does.
The runtime adds scr_zlib_codec_promise and its checked-dynamic twin,
which share the callback forms' options ladder and worker-pool operation
and settle a pending promise in place of the callback. The fallback
declarations gain the matching util.promisify overload.
5628-promisify-timers.ts compared a 1 ms timer with an immediate armed
at the same time. Their order depends on how much time has passed when
the loop reaches its timers phase: once the delay has elapsed, the timer
fires before the check phase. Node prints either order under load. The
test now orders three timers armed together (1, 10 and 30 ms), which
settle in deadline order. The node-types fixture does the same with two
timers.
Node's util.promisify returns the custom promisified form of setTimeout
and setImmediate, which is timers/promises' function of the same name.
A const binding of promisify over the global functions, the node:timers
named imports or the node:timers namespace members now registers that
timers/promises member as the projection, so calls through the binding
lower as the timers/promises call: they fulfill with the given value
(undefined without one) after the delay or in the check phase.
The fallback declarations gain the matching util.promisify overloads.
exec(command, callback) and exec(command, { encoding, maxBuffer },
callback) lower like execFile's callback slice. The command line runs
with /bin/sh -c, as execSync runs it, the call returns the live
ChildProcess, and the error-first callback receives the captured utf8
stdout and stderr. A non-zero exit, including the shell's 127 for a
missing command, reports Node's "Command failed: <command>\n<stderr>":
scr_exec_file takes a shell flag so the message shows the command line.
Under @types/node, child_process.ExecException maps to Error, as
ExecFileException does. Its code member is the child's numeric exit
status, which the runtime error's string code slot does not hold, so
reading it, testing it with `in`, or testing its typeof is a named
refusal.
socket.address(), socket.resetAndDestroy() and server.dropMaxConnection
were refused at compile time, and address() and resetAndDestroy() also
through untyped socket handles. They now match Node:
- address() answers { address, family, port } while the socket has a
local address, and {} while it connects or once it is destroyed. The
declared AddressInfo | {} result is a checked-dynamic value, so a type
assertion to AddressInfo narrows it.
- resetAndDestroy() closes the connection with an RST (SO_LINGER with a
zero timeout), so the peer reads ECONNRESET, and 'close' reports
hadError false. A connecting socket resets once it connects: the reset
is a once('connect') listener, so it runs at that place among the
'connect' listeners. A destroyed socket is left alone, a TLS socket
throws ERR_INVALID_HANDLE_TYPE, and the call answers the socket.
- dropMaxConnection is a stored value (undefined until set), since Node
reads it only in cluster mode.
Corpus 5657 (typed) and 5658 (untyped handles and the TLS throw) and the
node-types fixture net-reset-address.ts cover each member.
deflateSync, inflateSync, gzipSync, gunzipSync, deflateRawSync,
inflateRawSync and unzipSync, and their callback forms, accept Node's
options and run Node's processChunkSync over the zlib stream engine.
- Options (windowBits, level, memLevel, strategy, dictionary, chunkSize,
finishFlush, maxOutputLength, rejectGarbageAfterEnd) are validated at
run time with Node's ladder, shared with the stream classes; info is
refused at run time.
- Errors carry Node's errno and code; maxOutputLength reports
ERR_BUFFER_TOO_LARGE and rejectGarbageAfterEnd
ERR_TRAILING_JUNK_AFTER_STREAM_END. The default-options decoders also
read every gzip member.
- Untyped JavaScript inputs may be strings, TypedArrays, DataViews or
ArrayBuffers; other values throw Node's ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE after the
options are checked.
- Results are Buffers, as in Node: they convert to their text.
Corpus programs 5378, 5379 and 5415 cover the sync, callback and untyped
input forms.
promisify(fs.X) over a named or namespace import of node:fs lowers as
the fs/promises member of the same name for access, appendFile, chmod,
chown, copyFile, lchown, link, lstat, lutimes, mkdir, mkdtemp, readFile,
readdir, readlink, realpath, rename, rm, rmdir, stat, statfs, symlink,
truncate, unlink, utimes and writeFile. For these, Node's promisified
callback form settles with the callback's single result and rejects
with the same errors as the fs/promises call. Calls through the bound
function accept the forms the fs/promises lowering accepts and refuse
the others by name.
fs.open (an fd number where fs/promises.open gives a FileHandle),
fs.exists (a custom promisify) and fs.read/fs.write (multi-value
callbacks) remain refused.
dgram.Socket's setBroadcast, setTTL, setMulticastTTL,
setMulticastLoopback, setMulticastInterface, addMembership,
dropMembership, get/setRecvBufferSize, get/setSendBufferSize,
getSendQueueSize, getSendQueueCount and disconnect were refused at
compile time. They now lower to scr_dgram.c and match Node:
- The TTL setters and setMulticastLoopback return their argument. The
value checks run first: a TTL outside 1-255 (0-255 for multicast,
after ToInt32) throws "setTTL EINVAL" with code, errno and syscall.
- A socket that has not been bound has no descriptor yet, so the
options throw EBADF, and the buffer size methods throw Node's
ERR_SOCKET_BUFFER_SIZE SystemError.
- After close(), the members that read Node's null handle throw its
TypeError ("Cannot read properties of null (reading 'setTTL')"), and
setMulticastInterface and the membership calls throw "Not running".
- Buffer sizes must be uint32 values (ERR_SOCKET_BAD_BUFFER_SIZE), 0
reads the current size, and sizes past the int32 range fail as EINVAL.
- IPv6 interfaces and groups go to the IPv6 socket options, so a udp4
socket answers ENOPROTOOPT as in Node.
- disconnect() throws ERR_SOCKET_DGRAM_NOT_CONNECTED until 'connect' was
emitted, and dissolves the association with an AF_UNSPEC connect.
addMembership and dropMembership before bind() throw SC2020, where
Node binds the socket to an ephemeral port first; the limitations page
documents it, along with the missing info object on the buffer size
SystemError. Corpus 5655 and 5656 and the node-types fixture
dgram-options.ts cover each method.
A const binding of promisify(exec) now lowers like promisify(execFile):
each call runs the command line with /bin/sh -c, as execSync does, and
settles with { stdout, stderr }. A non-zero exit, a missing command (the
shell's 127) or a timeout rejects with Node's "Command failed: <command>\n
<stderr>" message. The options are the execFile slice: encoding utf8,
cwd, env (inline spread included), timeout, and maxBuffer accepted.
Three gaps closed for both targets along the way:
- the { stdout, stderr } result maps as a record when it is held in a
variable, passed or returned, instead of only when destructured at the
await (it is an anonymous literal in @types/node and in the fallback);
- a namespace member is a recognized target (promisify(cp.exec));
- util.promisify(...) through a namespace or default import is
recognized like the named import.
Buffer.from of strings, arrays and Uint8Arrays, Buffer.allocUnsafe and
Buffer.concat now return views into a per-thread pool slab of
Buffer.poolSize bytes (64 KiB by default) when the size is below
Buffer.poolSize >>> 1, following Node's allocate, fromStringFast and
fromArrayLike: 8-byte aligned offsets, a new slab when a request does not
fit, and the four-bytes-per-unit reservation for strings. Buffer.poolSize
can be read and set, and Buffer.allocUnsafeSlow returns an unpooled Buffer.
A slab lives while any of its views does. Its ArrayBuffer cannot be
transferred, and structuredClone of a typed array view copies the whole
ArrayBuffer and keeps the view's offset. Buffer.alloc, allocUnsafe and
allocUnsafeSlow validate sizes with Node's ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE error.
The first pooled allocation finds the startup slab, which has the
default 64 KiB size. A request it cannot hold gets a slab of the current
Buffer.poolSize, as in Node, and the room is checked after every new
slab, so a Buffer.poolSize raised before the first pooled allocation
cannot place a reservation past the end of a 64 KiB slab. A reservation
larger than a fresh slab traps instead of writing past it.
Corpus 5531 (typed) and 5532 (untyped) raise Buffer.poolSize before the
first pooled allocation and allocate just under the new threshold
through each pooled path, each case in a fresh child process, and also
shrink Buffer.poolSize and change it between allocations. The
node-types fenced fixture no longer lists Buffer.poolSize, which now
compiles.
