Problem

• With targets that lack logical properties, a physical longhand declared after a logical one for the same side loses to it. .a{margin-inline-start:3px;margin-left:1px} compiled for safari 8 (or chrome 60) prints .a{margin-left:1px} followed by .a:not(:is(:lang(ar), ...)){margin-left:3px} and .a:is(...){margin-right:3px}, so ltr pages get margin-left: 3px, while the source (and any browser that understands logical properties) resolves it to 1px. The same happens for padding, inset, every border-inline-* longhand and side shorthand, and the logical border-*-radius corners. Upstream lightningcss 1.30 prints the same thing, so this is inherited, not a regression.
• Cause: the minifier compiles an inline logical value into one declaration for an ltr rule and one for an rtl rule (PropertyHandlerContext::add_logical_rule, src/css/context.rs), and those rules are appended after the rule being minified, so they win over everything in it. The handlers flushed their buffered logical values the moment a physical value arrived (flush_helper_physical in src/css/properties/margin_padding.rs, flush_helper!/set_border_helper! in border.rs, property_helper! in border_radius.rs), before knowing which sides the physical declarations would set, so both direction copies were always emitted.

Fix

• While logical values are being compiled away, a physical value arriving after buffered logical ones no longer flushes them; it is buffered alongside. The physical slots can then only hold values declared after the logical ones: a logical value still flushes a physical buffer first, and every arm that stores a physical value now records the physical category (the 4-side margin/border arms did not).
• flush writes the logical values out first. Block values go into the rule itself as before, so source order still decides there. For each inline value (and each logical radius corner) the direction that maps onto a physical side set in the same buffer is skipped, via a new PropertyHandlerContext::add_directional_rule; the other direction is still emitted. This is correct because in the skipped direction the later physical declaration is what the cascade resolves to, and the skipped copy had no effect other than overriding it; in the other direction the logical value is still the last declaration for that side. .a{margin-inline-start:3px;margin-left:1px} now prints .a{margin-left:1px} plus only the rtl rules with margin-right:3px; with margin-right also declared afterwards nothing is appended at all.
• In border.rs this is done per sub-property (width/style/color) in flush_overridden_inline, which runs before the existing flush_category! and takes the affected values out of it; surviving halves are pushed as longhands and the appended rules are re-minified anyway, so border-inline-start: 3px solid red; border-left: 1px solid blue still yields a border-right: 3px solid red shorthand in the rtl rules.
• Unparsed physical declarations (margin-left: var(--x)) are written out directly rather than buffered; flush_before_unparsed writes out everything that belongs in the rule itself, keeps the compiled inline values buffered and records the sides written out ahead of them (declared_after_inline), so any number of them behave exactly like buffered physical values. The border handler additionally holds back unparsed inline logical declarations (border-inline-start: var(--b)) in unparsed_inline, as the margin handler already did through its Option<Property> slots, so a later border-left overrides them too; a declaration that overrides only part of such a value leaves it untouched, since it cannot be split.
• Values whose syntax some target rejects (1dvh for these targets) keep their fallbacks: the existing flush that keeps the previous value of a property ahead of such a value now also counts a buffered logical value that compiles into the rule itself as the previous value of the physical property: a block value, or an inline pair with equal values. So margin-block-start:3px; margin:1dvh still prints margin-top:3px; margin:1dvh, and margin-inline:3px; margin-left:1dvh still prints margin-left:3px; margin-right:3px; margin-left:1dvh (the 4-side shorthand arms drop the logical values otherwise). The physical side shorthands (border-left: 1dvh solid blue) and the 4-side border shorthand get the same check for width and color, which they lacked. A logical side shorthand gets none: its fallback would go into the ltr/rtl rules, which override the rule itself where an equal inline pair lands. The 4-side border-width/border-style/border-color arms run every fallback check before they store a side, so a fallback for a later side no longer splits the shorthand. An unequal inline value is dropped for the overridden direction regardless of the later value's syntax: keeping it is exactly what overrides the later value in every browser that does support the syntax, and a copy that both applies only in one direction and yields to the later value cannot be expressed in the rule itself. For colors, the common case of such syntax, the generated rgb fallback covers the old targets, so border-inline-start-color: red; border-left-color: lab(...) now resolves to the lab color (or its fallback) on the left everywhere.
• With targets that support logical properties nothing changes: no value is buffered across the category switch, so everything is still emitted in source order.
• Verified with the new physical declaration after a compiled logical one block in test/js/bun/css/css.test.ts (margin/padding/inset, border, border-radius: every side and corner combination, both sides declared, equal inline values, unparsed values on either side and several in a row, the 4-side shorthands, a logical value declared again afterwards, unsupported syntax, and the unaffected orders): 110 of the 173 cases fail on a build without the src/ changes (a debug build of main) and all pass with them; the remaining 63 pin output that must not change.
• bun bd test test/js/bun/css/ and test/bundler/css/ are otherwise unchanged (the nested-vendor-prefix-duplication and nth-anplusb-ident 5s timeouts reproduce on a debug build of main here too); cargo clippy -p bun_css is clean.
• Related open PRs, all compatible with this one: css: drop the logical longhands a 4-side margin/padding shorthand overrides instead of flushing them #38576 and css: drop the logical border longhands a border-width/style/color shorthand overrides instead of flushing them #38607 change the 4-side shorthand arms (this PR covers the longhand and side-shorthand case; those arms now join the buffer the same way), css: record the category when a margin, padding, inset or scroll-margin shorthand replaces the buffered values #38551 adds the same category line to the shorthand arms, css: emit unparsed border-block-* declarations when compiling logical borders #38582 fixes the unparsed border-block-* arm of flush_unparsed next to the arm changed here, css: keep !important in the rules generated for logical properties and color-scheme #38597 adds !important tracking to the context lists this PR pushes into.

Background

• Compiling logical properties: for targets without margin-inline-start and friends, the minifier rewrites block-axis properties into the physical top/bottom ones inside the same rule, and inline-axis ones into two extra rules appended after it: one matching ltr documents (:not(:lang(<rtl languages>)), emitted twice because :is() is prefixed for such targets) with the left/right mapping for ltr text, and one matching rtl documents with the opposite mapping. border-start-start-radius and the other logical corners are compiled the same way, since every corner depends on the direction. The appended rules have higher specificity and come later, so any declaration in them beats the same property in the original rule.
• Property handlers: during minification each declaration block is fed to per-family handlers (SizeHandler for margin/padding/inset, BorderHandler, BorderRadiusHandler). A handler buffers the values of its family and writes them out ("flushes") as merged shorthands when something forces it to: the end of the block, a value that cannot be merged, or, until now, any switch between physical and logical values (category). Values flushed into the rule keep the order they are emitted in; values flushed into the direction rules always end up after the rule.
• Unparsed values: declarations the parser cannot fully interpret (for example ones containing var()) are kept as Property::Unparsed with the property id and the raw tokens. The margin handler buffers logical ones in its slots like parsed values; the border handler used to write them out immediately.

Walkthrough

Changes

Logical CSS prefixing now tracks later physical declarations and emits only non-overridden LTR/RTL fallback rules for margin, padding, inset, border, and border-radius properties. Tests cover declaration ordering, unsupported values, custom properties, and supported targets.

Logical CSS prefixing

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Shared directional rule dispatch src/css/context.rs	The context uses the shared Direction type and routes properties to LTR or RTL declaration lists.
Margin and padding fallback handling src/css/properties/margin_padding.rs	SizeHandler tracks physical side overrides, preserves compatible logical values, and emits physical or directional fallback declarations.
Border fallback handling src/css/properties/border.rs	BorderHandler buffers parsed and unparsed inline declarations, tracks later physical overrides, and emits remaining logical fallbacks.
Border-radius corner precedence src/css/properties/border_radius.rs	Border-radius handling tracks physical corner overrides and suppresses affected logical fallback rules.
Prefixing regression coverage test/js/bun/css/css.test.ts	Tests cover precedence and fallback behavior for margin, padding, inset, border, and border-radius declarations.

Status: reproduced and fixed; PR is at ee84731.

Reproduced on released bun 1.4.0 and on a debug build of main with cssInternals.prefixTest(".a{margin-inline-start:3px;margin-left:1px}", "", { chrome: 60 << 16 }), which appended :lang() rules setting margin-left: 3px; the same shape reproduces for padding, inset, border-inline-* and the logical border-*-radius corners. Of the new tests in test/js/bun/css/css.test.ts, 99 of 146 fail without the src/ changes and all pass with them.

This PR may be a duplicate of:

1. css: record the category when a margin, padding, inset or scroll-margin shorthand replaces the buffered values #38551 - Its entire source change (self.category = S::SHORTHAND_CATEGORY; in margin_padding.rs and self.category = Physical; in the Property::Border arm of border.rs) is already contained verbatim, at the same locations, in this PR.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

[robobun]

Not a duplicate of #38551, but it does contain it. #38551 fixes the category leaking from one block into the next block's shorthand; this PR fixes the compiled inline values overriding a later physical declaration within one block. The fix here keeps the logical values buffered when a physical value follows them, and that is only sound if every arm storing physical values records the physical category, which is exactly the two lines #38551 adds, so they are needed here as well. If #38551 lands first this PR rebases onto it and those two lines drop out of the diff; the rest of this change (the direction-aware flush in the three handlers, the unparsed handling, and the tests) is independent of it, and #38551's tests for the cross-block case are not covered here.

[robobun]

Addressed the review findings in 811c35b and 6776599.

The equal inline pair case was a real regression against main: margin-inline: 3px; margin-left: 1dvh (and margin: 1dvh, and the border width/style/color equivalents) dropped the 3px fallback. The pair is written into the rule itself, so it is the previous value of the left and right sides. The fallback check now counts it, for margin/padding/inset and for the border longhands. Unequal pairs are still dropped for the overridden direction, as the PR body explains.

Two related changes in border.rs: the 4-side border-width/border-style/border-color arms now run every fallback check before they store a side, so border-right-width: 3px; border-width: 1dvh prints border-right-width: 3px; border-width: 1dvh instead of four longhands. The side shorthands (border-left: 1dvh solid blue) get the same width and color fallback check, which they had no equivalent of before.

The interleaved case (margin-inline-start; margin-left; margin-inline-end; margin-right) is pre-existing and the same on main. This PR does not change it.

The new block now has 163 cases. 106 fail on a debug build of main and all pass here. test/js/bun/css/ and test/bundler/css/ pass, clippy is clean.

Preserve logical fallbacks before storing border.

Property::BorderInline uses set_border_helper!, which checks width and color compatibility. Property::Border bypasses that helper, stores all four physical sides, and then resets the logical buffers.

For border-inline: 3px solid red; border: 1dvh solid blue on targets without logical-border or dvh support, the red inline fallback is discarded. The output retains only border: 1dvh solid blue.

Run the width and color compatibility checks for all four physical sides before storing and resetting the values. Alternatively, add a four-side helper for the Border shorthand and use it here.

[claude]

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the third sibling of the flush_before_unparsed gap: BorderRadiusHandler::flush_before_unparsed in src/css/properties/border_radius.rs keeps the logical corners buffered whenever any are present and being compiled, without gating on which corner the unparsed declaration sets, so an intervening unparsed corner does not lose the later-declared tracking there.

Extended reasoning...

Two findings are being posted inline (the Property::Border category-switch flush in border.rs and the keep_inline gate in margin_padding.rs/border.rs that only holds inline values back when the unparsed declaration itself sets left or right). The margin/border finding names two of the three handlers; I read the border_radius.rs port of the same helper and its keep_logical condition depends only on whether logical corners are buffered and should_compile_logical, and declared_after_logical accumulates via .or across calls, so that handler is not in the same class. The context.rs change is a type swap plus a two-arm helper with no behavioral risk. Nothing here is security-relevant; the review scope is a stateful minifier port, and with the timeline incomplete and prior review threads self-resolved, this is a note for the author rather than an approval.

Follow-up on the later review findings, in 540dca4, 07bc817 and e8af8c6.

The border shorthand now runs the width and color fallback checks on all four sides before it stores, so border-inline: 3px solid red; border: 1dvh solid #00f keeps border-left: 3px solid red; border-right: 3px solid red ahead of it. It runs only the syntax check, not the category flush: border resets every logical side, so with targets that support logical borders border-inline-start: 3px solid red; border: 1px solid #00f still prints border: 1px solid #00f as on main.

A logical side shorthand (border-inline: ...) skips the fallback check again. Its fallback would go into the ltr/rtl rules, which override the rule itself where an equal inline pair lands. border-inline-start-color: red; border-inline: 1px solid lab(...) prints the same as main.

Kept as is: contains in flush_unparsed_inline. For border-inline-start: var(--b); border-left-width: 1px, dropping border-left: var(--b) in ltr would leave the left border with width 1px and no style, so no visible border at all. Keeping it loses only the width override, which is the smaller loss. The test in the block pins that.

Pre-existing and unchanged, the same on main: the interleaved orders (margin-inline-start; margin-left; margin-inline-end; margin-right), a fallback flush inside a 4-side shorthand emitting both direction copies, an unparsed top/bottom declaration between an inline and a later physical one, and the property_helper! logical-key case (border-inline-start-color: red; border-inline-color: lab(...)).

The block now has 173 cases, 110 fail on a debug build of main, all pass here. test/js/bun/css/ and test/bundler/css/ pass, clippy is clean.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Not taken in #47025 (7942008), which consolidated the open CSS parser pull requests. It is right or harmless, but not worth its code, the bigger output or the behavior it changes.

[robobun]

Understood. The change was not taken into #47025, so this PR stays closed. The test block in this branch still documents the cases if anyone revisits the compiled logical property order later.
