Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change aligns DNS error errno behavior with Node, but the new regression tests rely on external DNS resolution and may be flaky or produce misleading results across environments. Merge readiness is therefore moderate until the tests use a deterministic local fixture or this limitation is explicitly accepted; additional getnameinfo coverage is a follow-up concern. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4✅ Passed checks (4 passed)

Use a hermetic DNS fixture.
These tests query the configured DNS resolver for invalid.invalid. Results and latency depend on network access and resolver configuration. Use an in-process DNS fixture or an existing local resolver harness for deterministic c-ares and getaddrinfo errors.
As per coding guidelines: tests must be hermetic and avoid external services.

Cover the getnameinfo exception.
The new branch preserves numeric errno for both getaddrinfo and getnameinfo, but these tests cover only c-ares resolveAny and getaddrinfo-backed dns.lookup. Add a dns.lookupService error case, or reuse an existing getnameinfo fixture, and assert that numeric errno remains.
As per coding guidelines: tests must cover the complete relevant variant matrix, including sibling APIs.

Thank you for the fix and the tests. An earlier PR for the same issue is already open: #37323. It makes the decision one layer down, where the native code builds the error, so it also covers the errors that do not pass through One detail that affects the approach here: the native error builder defines Your promise API and |
Fixes #37320
Node's \DNSException\ leaves \�rrno\ unset for c-ares query errors (e.g. \dns.resolveAny): only getaddrinfo / getnameinfo (libuv) errors carry a numeric errno. Bun surfaced the raw ARES_* number (e.g. \�rrno: 4) on all dns errors.
\withTranslatedError\ now removes the numeric \�rrno\ for non-getaddrinfo / non-getnameinfo syscalls, so resolve-family errors match Node:
\\js
// node
dns.promises.resolveAny('invalid.invalid') // -> errno: undefined, code: ENOTFOUND
// bun before
dns.promises.resolveAny('invalid.invalid') // -> errno: 4, code: ENOTFOUND
\\
\dns.lookup\ errors keep their numeric errno. Added tests: resolve-family errors have no errno (promises + callback), lookup errors keep a numeric errno.
New tests fail pre-fix on 1.3.14 (errno: 4 present); lookup errno test passes either way.
