Fixes #43874

Problem

• write(data, cb) and end(data, cb) on a tls.TLSSocket over a generic Duplex run cb before the Duplex completed the ciphertext write. A handler that treats end(cb) as "flushed" truncates the response. Node waits for the wrapped stream's write callback. An fd socket has the same gap: us_internal_ssl_write counts the last record batch as written while its tail sits in the loop's TLS spill, so process.exit() in cb cuts an upload by 16 to 112 KiB now and then.
• Cause: UpgradedDuplex::call_write_or_end (src/runtime/socket/UpgradedDuplex.rs:223) calls duplex.write(buffer) with no callback, and encode_and_write reports the SSL_write count, which a memory BIO always fills.

Fix

• UpgradedDuplex hands one cached callback to each duplex.write(chunk, cb) and duplex.end(null, cb), counts the writes in flight, and reports transport_idle() through the socket handle. At zero it fires the existing drain. An fd socket reports transport_idle() as us_socket_ssl_spill_pending() == 0, the check uWS's hasFullyDrained() makes. A write error fails the socket with write EPIPE on the next tick, as node's JSStreamSocket does.
• socket_body completes a write or end only when flushed_to_transport() holds, and shutdown() returns that state. net.ts parks the callback as it already does for a partial $write. A parked _final callback completes on drain, or with no error on close (node's afterShutdown). After a shutdown the drain reaches JS even when an http2 parser is attached as the socket's native writer, and the native flush (with the end-after-flush close) runs on every writable event, with or without a JS drain handler.
• Verified: 8 new cases in test/js/node/tls/node-tls-connect.test.ts, 5 fail on bun 1.4.3. Two cases in tls-syscall-fault.test.ts (short send on the last batch): write(cb) gets 0 of 65536 bytes without the fd gate, all with it, and a Bun.connect socket with only a data handler hangs after end() without the flush change. Also the tls, http2, net, http and bun/net suites and 19 vendored test-tls-* stream tests.
• Self-reviewed: 6 concerns raised, 5 addressed. Review bots: 11 more, 9 addressed, 2 pre-existing and noted (fatal-error drain completes a parked write with null, the Windows named pipe arm). Not taken: a WindowsNamedPipe arm, see Notes.

Background

• A TLSSocket over a stream with no fd runs BoringSSL over memory BIOs in UpgradedDuplex. Ciphertext leaves through duplex.write(), a JS call. Node's JSStreamSocket is the same layer.
• A Writable's boolean return does not carry completion: a small chunk stays under the highWaterMark, so write() returns true while _write has not called back.
• Considered a net.ts shim that waits on the Duplex from JS: it leaves write_buffered reporting a manufactured count and parks the callback twice. The http2 tlsSocketWrite path would stay wrong.

Downsides

• Every JSTLSSocket wrapper, fd-backed too, grows by one slot: sizeof 128 to 136, IsoSubspace cell 128 to 144 bytes.
• Per TLS $write, $end, shutdown() on an fd socket: one tag compare and a us_socket_ssl_spill_pending() call (a pointer compare on the loop's SSL data), 0 for TCP. Micro-benchmark suite (144 cases) on a local merge onto main: 142 equal, TLS writes of 64 B and 64 KiB within 0.3 %, net connect + close +1.3 % that does not scale with the iteration count. New symbols about 4.7 KB in the debug+ASAN binary, release not measured (no bloaty).
• TLS over a Duplex: write(64 B, cb) costs +7.4 % (+2,250 instructions per write, measured at 20k, 40k and 80k writes), 16 KiB +2.9 %. The completion rides the drain round trip (on_writable, the JS drain, $write("")) instead of one nextTick. This is the path whose callback was wrong.
• The callback stays in the nextTick phase (cb,A,M,B), node adds a setImmediate hop (A,M,B,cb).

Notes

Duplex path per write: 0 retained objects, 0 new Function objects (10k writes, bun:jsc heapStats, fix and canary equal). The completion callback is created once per socket and rooted in the wrapper's duplexOnWriteDone slot, so teardown() can neuter its data pointer before the native side is freed.

Write error: the Writable runs the chunk's callback inside onwriteError, before its own errorOrDestroy. A synchronous dispatch to the socket's error handler destroyed the Duplex from under it and swallowed the Duplex's 'error' (node v26 and bun 1.4.3 both emit it). The dispatch now goes through process.nextTick (the same host function, called with the socket wrapper as its argument) and reports write EPIPE, node's mapping for a stream write error (uv[UV_${err.code}] || UV_EPIPE). Probe: node prints transport 'error', write cb write EPIPE, socket 'error' write EPIPE. This branch prints the same three, the socket error one tick earlier than node.

end(cb) whose transport closes before it takes the close_notify: node's doClose cancels the shutdown with ECANCELED and afterShutdown ignores it, so cb(null) and 'finish' follow. Parking that callback in kwriteCallback gave it ERR_SOCKET_CLOSED. It has its own slot, completed with no error from onUpgradedClose (ahead of the destroy), the close handlers, and the drain.

http2 over a TLS socket on a Duplex: when the server does not negotiate h2, Http2Session calls socket.end() and then attaches its native parser in the same tick. NewSocket::on_writable used to return as soon as the native writer handled the drain, so the parked _final callback never ran (the test cell hangs without the change). After a shutdown nothing native can write any more, so the drain now falls through to JS. On main this path is reached only once _final no longer waits for a connect that already fired (#42343).

A Duplex whose write() runs the callback synchronously (a subclass override, not a Writable) completed the write inside the flush that issued it. The drain then re-entered internal_flush with the plaintext still on the buffer and sent it again, without end. call_write_or_end tracks its nesting depth, and a completion that lands inside the call defers its drain to the next tick. After a native (http2) drain, on_writable re-checks that the socket still has handlers and is attached before it falls through to the JS drain, since that drain runs JS that can close the socket.

Bun sockets with no drain handler: NewSocket::on_writable returned before internal_flush when the handlers had no drain callback, so the end-after-flush close that now waits for the spill never re-ran. The flush is native and runs on every writable event now; only the JS dispatch needs the handler.

A peer reset while a write callback is parked: main ran the callback early with success, node runs it with ECANCELED, this PR leaves it uncalled (the _write in flight is skipped by the Writable's errorBuffer). #43250 fails that parked write from _destroy with ECANCELED; with this PR it also covers TLS over a Duplex. The two are independent and compose.

Independent check of the Duplex half (local merges onto main, release and ASan): the issue's script passes, 1,772 cells (3 wrappings, slow / stuck / failing / silent _write, write / end / cork / pipeline, exit / destroy / end in the callback): 0 callbacks with a transport write outstanding against 1,360 on main, equal to node in 1,628 (the rest is older behaviour or error wording). Plain TCP and unix: equal to main in 1,524 cells, except end(data) with no drain handler and a tail the kernel did not take, where main never sends FIN and this PR closes.

Independent check of the fd half (local merges of aa64a27 and d33b1ee onto main abc26b7, release and ASan): 0 short runs of 760 with a slow reader, against 7 to 26 of 100 on main depending on the reader; the no-drain hang at aa64a27 is gone at d33b1ee; 112 ASan runs, 0 reports. #41785 edits the same lines of NewSocket::on_writable; the two merge clean onto main alone and conflict with each other.

fd TLS spill: the batch in us_internal_ssl_write flushes every 128 KiB and stops consuming when the wire blocks, but the flush after the loop can be partial while the call returns the whole length. The spill drains from the writable event before us_dispatch_writable, so the existing drain completes the parked callback once it is empty. Reported as an intermittent short upload (1 run in 40) with a slow reader and process.exit() in the write callback.

socket.shutdown() on a Bun socket now returns a boolean (always true for a socket with an fd). bun.d.ts documents it.

Design: the review proposed carrying pending inside the write_check_error result. The diff queries transport_idle() at the completion gates instead, which is the same locus without widening the fd path's return shape.

Landing order with #42350 (shutdown ends the wrapped Duplex): its duplex.end() goes through call_write_or_end, so it is counted here with no extra wiring. Its pending_shutdown replay runs before any ciphertext exists and needs none. #43806 (no SSL_write during the handshake) and #42332 (pause/resume) touch other paths.

Siblings fixed for free: tls.connect({ socket }) and new TLSSocket(socket, { isServer: true }), the TLS-over-TLS and pending-write fallbacks in net.ts that run the stream-level engine, _http2_upgrade.ts tlsSocketWrite (parks on false, completes on drain), 'finish' and writableFinished on such sockets, and raw_write. Not in scope: WindowsNamedPipe keeps transport_idle() == true (its PipeWriter completes the first write of a burst at the libuv write and parks the rest in its own buffer; the Pipe arm of transport_idle() is where a later change plugs in), _http2_upgrade.ts tlsSocketFinal (completes synchronously), pure-JS http2 transport writes.

Pre-existing failures in this container, identical on main or the released canary: node-tls-server.test.ts "SNICallback runs even when the requested servername matches the bind hostname" (ECONNREFUSED on a localhost bind), 10 cases in node-net.test.ts (same cause), socket.test.ts "should not call drain before handshake" (needs the internet), node-http-syscall-fault.test.ts "upRes.pipe(res) with res.destroy() racing a queued drain" (fails on main's source with the same build).

Repro from the issue: before end() callback fired: client has 0/1 bytes, 1635 ciphertext bytes delivered, after client has 1/1 bytes, 2068 ciphertext bytes delivered. Node v26.3.0 gives 1/1.

Walkthrough

TLS socket write and shutdown completion now reflects pending writes on wrapped duplex transports. node:net can defer final callbacks until shutdown completes or the socket closes. Tests cover delayed writes, transport errors, close during close_notify, and HTTP/2 drain handling.

[claude]

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked two paths on the new on_write_done host fn in src/runtime/socket/UpgradedDuplex.rs: a Duplex whose _write completes synchronously cannot re-enter the TLS engine from inside SSL_write, because Writable's onwrite defers both afterWrite and onwriteError to a nextTick when sync is set; and a falsy non-null completion (cb(false) / cb(0)) cannot be misread as an error, because Writable only forwards a truthy er and calls the chunk callback with no argument on success.

Extended reasoning...

The change spans the TLS-over-Duplex engine (UpgradedDuplex.rs), the socket write/end/shutdown gates (socket_body.rs), net.ts's parked shutdown callback, a new rooted wrapper slot, and new tests; it touches no auth or injection surface but does alter native lifecycle counting and error dispatch. Inline findings are being posted, so this note only records two adjacent concerns that were traced through Node's Writable implementation and ruled out.

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/runtime/socket/socket_body.rs — An http2 client over a TLSSocket that runs on a Duplex (e.g. a proxy tunnel) has its socket.end() 'finish' and end callback stuck until the peer closes when ALPN is not h2. http2.ts:5414 calls socket.end() and then setNativeSocket at :5424 in the same tick; endNT runs a tick later, shutdown() returns false because close_notify is still in the Duplex, and the callback is parked. When on_write_done fires the drain, socket_body.rs:942 hands it to the attached H2FrameParser and returns before the JS drain, so completeShutdown never runs. Fix: run the JS drain (or completeShutdown) even when a native callback is attached, or detach the native callback before ending the socket on the ALPN-mismatch path. [also at: src/runtime/socket/socket_body.rs:942 - An http2 client whose TLSSocket runs over a Duplex and whose server did not negotiate h2 never gets 'finish' or the end() callback until the peer closes. http2.ts:5414 calls socket.end() and then attaches the native parser at http2.ts:5424 in the same tick.]

  Why this was flagged

  Population: http2.connect with a createConnection that returns tls.connect({ socket: duplex }) or new TLSSocket(duplex), a common proxy-tunnel shape; trigger is the peer negotiating something other than h2. Http2Session #onConnect at http2.ts:5411-5414 calls socket.end() then, at :5422-5424, attaches the parser as the native callback of socket._handle (the JSTLSSocket from upgradeDuplexToTLS). Socket.prototype._final (net.ts:2485) defers endNT to nextTick; endNT (net.ts:393) calls shutdown(), which sends close_notify through duplex.write with in_flight=1 (UpgradedDuplex.rs:286), returns false (socket_body.rs:3205), and parks the callback at net.ts:401. When the Duplex completes the write, on_write_done (UpgradedDuplex.rs:855) calls handlers.on_writable; NewSocket::on_writable returns at socket_body.rs:942-943 because native_callback.on_writable() returns true, so neither…

  Verification: normal (narrow population: a TLSSocket over a JS Duplex that has an H2FrameParser attached as its native callback) — triggered when socket.end() reaches endNT while the Duplex still holds the close_notify chunk and the h2 parser is attached, e.g. http2's non-h2 ALPN path. Mechanism verified: - /home/claude/bun/src/js/node/http2.ts:5411-5424: #onConnect calls socket.end() (5414) when…

[robobun]

Thanks for the http2 finding. Confirmed against main's source: with the server not negotiating h2, Http2Session calls socket.end() and attaches the native parser in the same tick, and NewSocket::on_writable returned as soon as the parser handled the drain, so the parked end callback never ran. After a shutdown nothing native can write any more, so the drain now falls through to the JS handler (d5239d6). A new cell in node-tls-connect.test.ts hangs without that change and passes with it. On main the path is masked by _final waiting on a connect event that already fired (#42343).

Complete the parked shutdown callback on the native error-close path.

When end(cb) parks its _final callback in kshutdownCallback, SocketHandlers2.close can enter the native error branch and call self.destroy(...). That branch returns before completeShutdown(self, null). _destroy does not complete the parked callback, and later close handling is blocked by kclosed. The end completion callback can therefore remain pending.

The error-close returns in both close handlers now complete a parked shutdown callback after the destroy, in 96631a3. The user's end(cb) already received ERR_STREAM_DESTROYED from the Writable on that path. This balances the internal _final callback as well.

[robobun]

Rebased onto main at e2920b7. The only conflict was the import block of node-tls-connect.test.ts. One more fault-injection cell covers the face found after the last push: a TLS server that answers the peer's FIN with write + end and exits on its own now delivers the spilled tail (the early callback ran unrefAfterDrain and the loop lost its last hold while the spill waited for writable).

On 1 to 5: understood. This PR is the mechanism for 1 and is not for merge on its own. I will take 2 to 5 on top of it, starting from claude/tls-stream-engine-node-close for 1 to 3 (the on_peer_close handler in SSLWrapper, the owner's shutdown as the answer).

One question decides where that work goes. That branch sits on #44618, and the code around this PR differs there from main (attachTLSEngine, the close_notify path, transport_got_eof). Do you want the follow-up stacked on #44618's branch now, or built on main once #44618 lands? Either way I will carry the seeded differential runs you describe (peer closes first with more queued than the kernel takes, two-way traffic, paused writers, destroySoon, resets, half-open peers, three sessions deep, the handshake window) as the check, not the suites alone.

[steipete]

A concrete regression for items 2 and 3 of the plan above (close_notify reported as EOF, with the writable half still open), from our downstream TLS work in openclaw#144:

Over a Duplex with allowHalfOpen: true, the peer sends "last" and its close_notify in one chunk. The client gets 'data' and then 'end', and from a setImmediate outside the receive callback it calls write("tail"). The peer must receive "tail" before the client calls end(). A test that only calls end("tail") from the 'end' handler misses a state we hit in an intermediate implementation: the engine accepted the write after close_notify but held it until end(). Node 24.21.0 passes the case. The scenario is duplex-write-after-end in tls-half-close-transport-fixture.cjs. The same change also tests that an explicit destroy() of a TLS socket over a Duplex never reads or calls the transport's end property.

Our change predates #44618's engine consolidation and isn't a drop-in here, so I'm offering only the test cases for the follow-up branch.

[robobun]

Thanks, noted for the follow-up: the write-after-EOF case (peer's data plus close_notify in one chunk, then write("tail") from a setImmediate outside the receive callback, and the peer must see it before end()), and destroy() on a socket over a Duplex never touching the transport's end property. Both go into the differential set for items 2 and 3, with Node as the reference.

[robobun]

Item 5 of the list above ('finish' waits for the transport's end()), built and measured without items 1 to 4. The work on injected connections of http2.createSecureServer (the follow-up of #45471) needs it.

The change

Branch robobun/12858a05/tls-duplex-final, commit 4e4a628, on main 017b243: 4 lines in endNT (src/js/node/net.ts) and 4 tests in node-tls-duplex-end-verify.test.ts. The tests fail on main and pass on Node v26.3.0.

const transport = unadoptedTransport(self);
const wasOpen = transport !== undefined && !(transport instanceof Socket) && !transport.writableEnded;
(!socket || current?.[kAdoptedTLSRaw] ? current : socket)?.shutdown();
if (wasOpen && transport.writableEnded && !transport.writableFinished) return void transport.end(() => callback());
callback();

This PR has the same wait in another form (kshutdownCallback, completed when shutdown() reports the transport flushed). I did not run the tests on this PR's branch.

What it repairs alone

• write(8 MiB) then destroySoon() over a Duplex: 2,572,288 → 8,388,608 of 8,388,608 bytes.
• 20 peers that stop reading, then destroySoon(): main destroys the 20 sockets at once. With the change they stay open and each gets its 'timeout', as on Node. A destroy() then leaves 0 transports and 0 fds.
• destroy() is equal: 0 _final calls, 3 ticks, the transport destroyed inside the call.

What it does not repair alone

• Three sessions deep, each session runs over a Duplex that forwards to the session below. After destroySoon() the innermost socket of the peer reports ERR_SOCKET_CLOSED (24 of 24 scenarios). On main that socket closes clean. After end(), main already reports that error there (24 of 24). Node reports nothing.
• In the trace below, c2.end() runs in the turn of c3.destroySoon(), and the answer of s3 then fails at s2, which has closed. On Node s3 has answered before c2.end() runs. That is what items 1 to 3 describe.
• Two sessions deep report no error in 72 of 72 scenarios, with and without the change.
• A client that sends its request and end()s still gets 0 of 1,048,576 bytes from a server socket over a Duplex (item 3).

Seeded differential

360 close scenarios on Node v26.3.0 and on a debug build of main with and without the 4 lines. 281 gave the same record in two runs of every runtime. Only those count.

	main	with the change
bytes to the peer equal to Node	212	230
bytes from the peer equal to Node	221	232
events of the closing socket equal to Node	57	78
'finish' while the peer does not have all bytes (Node: 20)	68	30

• No scenario delivers fewer bytes than main. 18 deliver more to the peer, 14 more from it.
• No scenario gains or loses an 'error' on the closing socket.
• 'error' on the peer: the three-deep case (11 scenarios). In 6 scenarios over a real socket the peer reports EPIPE where it reported ECONNRESET.

Where it can go

Item 5 removes the cut. Three sessions deep it needs items 2 and 3, as the list says. It can land with them in this chain, or ahead of them as its own pull with the three-deep case as a known limit.

Notes

• The two variants are one debug build of main 017b243. The variant "main" reads the bundled net.js without the 4 lines.
• The byte counts are from tls.createServer(...).emit("connection", duplex), where the Duplex forwards to the accepted net.Socket and the server calls write(8 MiB) and destroySoon(). The listen() door and the net.Socket door deliver all bytes on main.
• Scenario dimensions: which side closes (client, server.emit("connection"), new TLSSocket(stream, { isServer })), the transport (an in-memory pair, a pair that passes 64 KiB per turn, a Duplex over a real socket, three sessions deep over Duplexes, three sessions deep over sockets), 0 to 4 MiB written before the close, 0 to 1 MiB from the peer, end() / destroySoon() / destroy() / end() then destroySoon() / none, the close issued after the handshake or in the turn that made the socket, a peer that reads, stays half-open, stops reading, ends first, destroys or resets, allowHalfOpen, an idle timeout.
• The fields of a record: the events of the closing socket, of the peer socket and of the closing socket's transport (each in its own order), the bytes each side got, which of the three is destroyed at the end, and whether all closed before the deadline.
• Every field equal to Node: 24 → 45 of 281. Node's sockets over a Duplex take allowHalfOpen from that Duplex, so the peer stays open there in most scenarios. That difference is not part of this change.
• In 13 scenarios over the slow pair the peer socket now closes. On main the stream was cut at 49,152 bytes there and the peer stayed open. On main the peer closes in 25 of the 30 such scenarios where all bytes arrive.
• The three-deep counts come from a second matrix of 144 scenarios: two or three sessions deep, client or server closes, end() / destroySoon() / destroy(), 0, 100 or 262,144 bytes, peer allowHalfOpen on or off. Bytes to the peer equal Node in 112 of 144 on both variants.
• Pinned suites with the change (bun bd test): node-tls-duplex-end-verify 119, node-tls-wrapped-socket-close 113, node-tls-connect 349 (4 more need the network), node-tls-server 218 (with a 30 s limit per test on the debug build), node-tls-upgrade 21, node-http2-upgrade 23.

Three sessions deep, c3.destroySoon(): what each layer saw

cN is the client session of layer N and sN the server session. "over cN" is the Duplex that forwards to cN.

#46335 changes the lifetime rule of DuplexUpgradeContext. Each UpgradedDuplex entry point holds a ref on the context while it runs, and a debug assertion in the handler trampolines (on_writable, on_error and the others) fails when a handler is dispatched with no ref held.

This PR adds one entry point, the on_write_done thunk, which dispatches on_writable and on_error. Whichever of the two lands second needs one line: let _keep_alive = this.keep_alive(); after the thunk reads this, as the other four thunks have in #46335.

[robobun]

@Jarred-Sumner two questions for #46380 (draft, stacked on #45673). They follow from your comment above: "Do not destroy a wrapped net.Socket at its 'finish'. That means the kernel has the bytes."

#46380 is about the fd engine. An HTTP/2 peer sends its request, then a FIN, and keeps reading. endNT sends the socket's FIN ahead of the frames that the session's parser still holds, and 'finish' destroys the socket. The peer gets 2,652,707 of 16,777,216 bytes. In #46380 the parser sends the FIN after that output.

1. May _final wait for a FIN that the handle holds? node:http2: hold the FIN behind output owed to a peer that half-closed #46380 parks the _final callback in node:net (kshutdownCallback, next to kwriteCallback) until the drain that follows the FIN. It asks the handle through a private helper, and Socket#shutdown() stays void. The other form keeps the hold native, with no net.ts change. 'finish' then comes before the kernel has the bytes.
2. Which output does the held FIN wait for? node:http2: hold the FIN behind output owed to a peer that half-closed #46380 waits until the session's buffer is empty. So it also sends what the session writes while the FIN waits. No Node version does that: Node sends what its socket had when the FIN was asked, and nothing later. The Notes of node:http2: hold the FIN behind output owed to a peer that half-closed #46380 have a table for five response shapes on Node v22.23.4 to v26.12.1.

#46380 asks for no review before #45673 has merged and these have an answer.
