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.
A timers/promises timer that nothing awaited did not keep the process
alive: the loop only ran when the program used the global timers, async
functions or generators. Node keeps a pending ref'd timer's process open,
and the timer heap's exit teardown releases an unref'd one only when the
loop runs, so a pending { ref: false } timer stayed live at exit. Any
timers/promises call now runs the loop.
The node-types fixture no longer attaches .then to the never-firing
unref'd timer, whose suspended continuation the sanitizer's RC audit
reports at exit. Corpus 5620 no longer orders a 1ms timeout against an
immediate, which Node itself does not order from the main module.
events.once(emitter, name) was refused. The emitter dispatches statically
emitted events to typed listeners through invokers built per argument
tuple, so the lowering takes the event's tuple from the program-wide event
table and builds a capture-free function that boxes that tuple into the
any[] Node fulfills with, and one for the 'error' tuple.
scr_events_once registers both as one-shot typed listeners behind emitted
adapters (emitterOnceAdapter). The first to fire settles the promise
(fulfilled with the arguments, or rejected with the error) and removes
the other, as in Node; awaiting 'error' itself registers only the one
listener. The shared state holds the emitter and the listener closures
weakly, so a never-fired once creates no cycle.
Options, computed or meta event names, EventTarget and stream receivers,
and events emitted with computed names or checked-dynamic listeners stay
refused. The fallback declarations type the result Promise<unknown[]>;
under @types/node (Promise<any[]>) TypeScript code narrows it to
unknown[].
timers/promises setTimeout(delay, value) and setImmediate(value) were
refused: only the void forms lowered. The value now travels as an
already-resolved promise of its own type (the Promise.resolve lowering),
and scr_tp_set_timeout_value / scr_tp_set_immediate_value copy its
settlement into the result when the timer or immediate fires, so the
result keeps the value's type. An options object literal takes `ref`;
`ref: false` unrefs the timer, so it no longer keeps the process alive.
AbortSignal options and other option forms stay refused, with their own
messages.
@types/node types setInterval as NodeJS.AsyncIterator<T>, which maps to
no IR type, so a for await loop over setInterval(delay, value) was refused
in projects with @types/node. The interval's async generator type now
comes from the iterator's type argument, and a for await loop whose head
is that call consumes it directly.
The fallback declarations type the new forms.
- server.close() closes idle keep-alive connections, and every open
connection closes after keepAliveTimeout + keepAliveTimeoutBuffer, so a
closed server whose clients keep their connections no longer stays up.
The Keep-Alive response header gives keepAliveTimeout in whole seconds
and is omitted when it is 0.
- A client request through an Agent with neither keepAlive nor a finite
maxSockets sends Connection: close.
- "socket hang up" and "aborted" errors carry code ECONNRESET, a client
head over the header limit fails with HPE_HEADER_OVERFLOW, and TLS
verification failures carry their openssl code.
- Outgoing header values keep the type they were set with: getHeader and
getHeaders answer numbers and arrays, appendHeader turns an existing
value into an array, and setHeader(name, string[]) writes one line per
element.
- Repeated incoming header fields join with ", " ("; " for cookie),
Node's single-value fields keep the first value, and set-cookie reads
as an array under @types/node, on server requests and client responses.
Fetch reads response headers line by line.
- Expect: 100-continue is answered with 100 Continue before 'request';
other expectations answer 417.
- HEAD requests and 1xx/204/304 responses send no body or length header,
and HTTP/1.0 requests without a set length get an unframed body and
Connection: close.
- The 16 KiB maxHeaderSize applies to the request target plus header
names and values (431 on the server).
- https.Agent TLS options are refused by name instead of being dropped,
and server.address() lowers for @types/node's
string | AddressInfo | null result.
Corpus 5555-5563 and the node-types http-headers-address fixture cover
each case.
The three glob entry points run a port of Node 24's
lib/internal/fs/glob.js walk in scr_glob.c: the same LIFO queue of
(path, patterns) items over the sorted directory listings, the same
lstat, stat, readdir, realpath and seen-pattern caches, the same result
set in insertion order, and the same exclusion checks, so matches come
out in Node's order. Patterns compile with the existing minimatch port.
glob_match is split into a compile step and a test step so the walk can
reuse each compiled pattern and test it segment by segment.
nocaseMagicOnly is now an option, because exclude patterns turn it off.
Patterns (a string or string array) and options (cwd as a path or
file: URL, exclude as patterns or a function, followSymlinks,
withFileTypes) are validated in Node's order with Node's errors,
including the internal assertion Node hits for a non-string cwd with
exclude patterns. withFileTypes results are Dirent rows: name,
parentPath and the type probes. parentPath follows Node's rule for each
form: the joined path for globSync, the resolved path for fs/promises
glob.
fs.glob checks the callback and validates synchronously, then delivers
string[] or the walk's error through the filesystem callback queue.
fs/promises glob lowers as the source of a for await loop. The walk runs
when the loop starts, and the matches found before an error bind before
the error is thrown, as Node's async iterator yields them first. The
older glob(3)-based fs.glob branch is removed.
Corpus 5448-5452 and a node-types fixture check the behavior against
Node.
createHash, createHmac, crypto.hash, pbkdf2, pbkdf2Sync, hkdf and hkdfSync
accept every digest crypto.getHashes() lists in Node 24: SHA-512/224,
SHA-512/256, SHA-256/192, SHA3-224 to SHA3-512, Keccak-224 to Keccak-512,
SHAKE128, SHAKE256, KECCAK-KMAC-128, KECCAK-KMAC-256, RIPEMD-160,
BLAKE2b-512, BLAKE2s-256, SM3 and MD5-SHA1. The new runtime unit
scr_hash.c implements Keccak, RIPEMD-160, BLAKE2b, BLAKE2s and SM3, and
is registered in both runtime pack matrices and the C-compile path.
Names resolve as Node 24.22 resolves them: case-insensitively, with
OpenSSL's provider aliases and object identifiers, ending at the first
NUL, and with trailing spaces allowed except on the RSA signature
aliases. "dss1" and "DSS1" are SHA-1, and createHash and crypto.hash
accept "dss1" in any case. The compiler no longer refuses literal digest
names outside SHA-1/SHA-2 and MD5; unknown names throw Node's errors at
run time.
SHAKE and KMAC digests use their default output lengths. createHmac
rejects them with Node's OpenSSL error, pbkdf2 with "xof digests not
allowed", and hkdf with "Deriving bits failed". pbkdf2 with a key length
of 0 now fails with "Deriving bits failed" as in Node 24.22, and the
callback forms pass these failures to the callback.
PBKDF2 computes the keyed HMAC states once instead of on every
iteration, and digest contexts are cleared with memset and a compiler
barrier instead of a byte loop. The Keccak permutation, the RIPEMD-160
and BLAKE2 compression functions and the SM3 rounds are unrolled with
constant indices.
Blob and File (globals and node:buffer exports) compile to native
handles in the new scr_blob.c, following Node 24.22's
lib/internal/blob.js and file.js. A Blob is a window over a shared,
immutable byte store plus the byte length of each part. Sources (strings,
typed arrays, DataView, ArrayBuffer, Buffer, other Blobs, Set and Map)
convert as a Web IDL sequence, with each non-buffer part converted to a
string, before the options are read, and are copied when the Blob is
built. The constructors throw Node's Web IDL TypeErrors and its
ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE, ERR_INVALID_ARG_VALUE and ERR_MISSING_ARGS errors,
and read and convert their options in Node's order. The type is
lowercased, or cleared when it holds a character outside U+0020..U+007E.
endings: "native" rewrites CRLF, CR and LF to the platform's line break.
File takes its name with lone surrogates replaced and lastModified as a
number (Date.now() when absent).
slice() converts its offsets as a [Clamp] long long (rounded half to
even) and keeps the parts Node's data queue keeps. text(), bytes() and
arrayBuffer() settle on the same microtask turn as in Node, which depends
on the part count. util.inspect prints Node's `Blob { size, type }` and
`File { ..., name, lastModified }` forms, with `[Blob]` past the depth
limit. String() and toString() give the class tag, JSON.stringify gives
{}, and structuredClone returns a new Blob or File over the same bytes.
instanceof works for both spellings. stream(), textStream() and the
Object.prototype members other than toString() fail at compile time.
Non-array iterables other than Set and Map throw SC2020.
Three handle-table additions support this: a structuredClone hook, a
JSON `{}` flag, and a bracketed past-depth inspect flag. scr_blob.c is an
optional unit selected by dynAsync, because the dynamic dispatch path
boxes its reads as dyn promises through scr_async_dyn.c.
Corpus 5285-5290 and a node-types fixture check the behavior against
Node.
- Preserve callback identity, receiver binding, and class references across unions and collections.
- Track record field presence independently of undefined values and improve native runtime behavior.
- Expand differential coverage and streamline CI bootstrap and compiler rebuild checks.
