net: keep the handle reading while a socket is paused, like node

[robobun]

Problem

• A TLSSocket or net.Socket that unpipe() paused never emits 'end' or 'close' when the peer closes, so server.close(cb) never calls back. Node emits both. Bun 1.4.0 hangs.
• Socket.prototype.pause (src/js/node/net.ts) stopped the native handle, so the peer's FIN was never read. Node stops the handle only for an onread socket (net.js#L817) or when push() returns false (stream_base_commons.js#L191). Since usockets: defer eof for a paused socket that already sent FIN; stop backpressure pauses from holding the loop #33974 a stopped handle holds the FIN back.
• A usockets socket comes up reading, a Node handle comes up stopped. So pauseOnConnect was a pause issued from JS after the accept.

Fix

• pause() uses Node's condition: a connected onread socket. The sites where push() returned false still stop the handle (readStop).
• pauseOnConnect sockets are paused natively: on_open pauses a plain socket, on_handshake a TLS socket (the handshake needs the reads), each once (PAUSE_ON_CONNECT). Accepted and adopted sockets (LIBUS_SOCKET_OPEN_PAUSED: cluster primary and worker) are registered paused to begin with, so that pause is free: 2 epoll_ctl per connection instead of 4 plus a wakeup. net.ts reads server.pauseOnConnect per connection like Node and only sets the stream state and the loop hold.
• afterConnect still stops a plain socket whose stream was paused while it connected. Node skips its read(0) at the same point.
• Verified: twelve new tests (node-net, node-tls-server, node-tls-connect, cluster, socket-reconnect-live, renegotiation). Also the net, tls, http, cluster, fetch and serve suites and the vendored net, tls and cluster files on Linux, the net, tls and cluster suites on Windows (notes).

Background

• kPausedUnref (usockets: defer eof for a paused socket that already sent FIN; stop backpressure pauses from holding the loop #33974) records that a stopped handle gave up its hold on the event loop. read(), _read() and resume() start the handle and take the hold back. A plain pause() now touches neither, as in Node.
• A paused socket on kqueue keeps an EV_CLEAR read knote, so the peer's FIN or RST still reaches the dispatcher. us_poll_start_rc now gives a socket that starts paused the same knote.
• unpipe() pauses the source when its last destination goes away. Only the peer's FIN can finish such a socket.

Notes

Reproduction, from the report: a tls.Server pipes each accepted socket to an upstream net connection and back. The upstream replies and closes. inner.pipe(sock) calls sock.end(), the cleanup of sock.pipe(inner) unpipes and pauses sock. The client then closes.

node v26.3.0 : inner close; sock.isPaused=true | client data reply | client end | client close | server sock end | server sock close || server.close(): ok
bun 1.4.0    : client data reply | client end | inner close; sock.isPaused=true | client close || server.close(): HUNG
this branch  : client data reply | client end | inner close; sock.isPaused=true | client close | server sock end | server sock close || server.close(): ok

The same with plain net hangs on 1.4.0 as well, and so does a socket that is only pause()d on a later tick (no end()) whose peer then ends, for both transports. Data that arrives while paused stays in the buffer and holds 'end' back until it is read, in Node and here alike.

Loop hold, against Node v26.3.0: a socket paused after it started to read keeps the process alive (1.4.0 exited). tls.connect(...).pause() completes the handshake and keeps the process alive until then, with and without onread (1.4.0 exited after 18 ms without a handshake, the case of #35151). A plain socket paused while connecting lets the process exit (vendored test-net-connect-paused-connection.js, which fails without the afterConnect stop). An onread client paused after 'connect' but before the handshake completes it in both: the _read() queued at connect time starts the handle again.

pauseOnConnect natively. Before, pauseOnCreate (and on main, self.pause()) issued us_socket_pause on an accepted socket that had just been registered readable, and us_socket_pause arms writable interest, which fires once (#37099 is the open fix for that). Measured with an epoll_ctl interposer on a cluster primary, per accepted connection: before ADD IN, MOD OUT, a wakeup, MOD HUP|ERR, DEL; now ADD HUP|ERR, DEL. The accept loop and us_socket_from_fd register the socket that way (epoll: HUP/ERR only, the state a paused socket reaches anyway. kqueue: the EV_CLEAR read knote a paused socket keeps, added in us_poll_start_rc for a socket poll that starts without read interest; listen and connect polls are semi-sockets there, so nothing else changes. libuv: UV_DISCONNECT only, the same call a pause makes). Both ignore the bit for a TLS socket. A dialed socket does not use the bit: on_open pauses it through the ordinary pause path, which is one us_socket_pause on a rare path and keeps the connect code untouched. For a Windows named pipe the on_open pause is the real read_stop. The option is read off the listen/connect options by hand like localAddress and fdIsRawSocket, before from_generated creates the handlers cell, which is not rooted at that point and the getter can run user code. Bun.listen and Bun.connect do not grow a typed option in this PR (passing it works and means what it says; promoting it to the dictionary is a separate decision). Node's TLS pauseOnConnect reads ahead into TLSWrap (bytesRead is 5 in the tls test under Node), ours leaves the bytes in the kernel; both deliver nothing before resume().

Two states that span connections, found in review. IS_PAUSED lived on the wrapper, so a socket that was left paused and then reconnected (socket.connect() again) started its new connection, which usockets opened reading, with the flag still set: pause() was a no-op and for TLS the post handshake pause was skipped. on_open now clears it, which is the one entry point all paths (TCP, TLS, named pipe, upgrades) go through for a new connection. PAUSE_ON_CONNECT is consumed the first time it acts, because a TLS 1.2 client gets a second on_handshake after a renegotiation (which Bun dispatches together with the next application data) and paused itself again there. socket-reconnect-live.test.ts and renegotiation.test.ts pin the two. Each fails with its line removed (the reconnect test resumes only after the server's end() callback ran, so the data is queued, and after one more poll of the loop: 12 of 12 runs fail without the reset, 12 of 12 pass with it).

Review pass over the whole diff (asked for by the reporter), what it checked and what changed. Every in-tree caller of socket.pause() was compared with its Node counterpart: _http_incoming readStart/readStop and internal/http.ts are Node's lines (stream level flow control, kernel backpressure once the socket buffer fills), _http2_upgrade.ts feeds TLS from 'data' events so its pause loses nothing, the in-place tls upgrade swaps native handlers synchronously and never pauses, Ipc.ts adopts a received socket reading like Node's got(), tty and stdin build on fs.ReadStream. The remaining behavior change is therefore the Node one: after pause() bytes may land in the JS buffer, which is why Node documents pauseOnConnect for handoffs. Event order for a paused socket whose peer sends FIN or RST was traced for node, main and this branch (plain, tls, unix, shut down first, with a pending write): identical to main apart from the fixed hang; an RST while paused is reported at once by main and by this branch (Node only notices it on resume). Changes from the pass: (1) on kqueue the open-paused registration had no read knote, so an RST before resume() went unnoticed until then on macOS only; fixed in us_poll_start_rc and the dial path dropped from the bit, see above, pinned by still reports a peer reset before resume() (passes on epoll either way, the darwin lanes exercise the fix). (2) onconnection read the raw options while the tls site read the live property and the cluster worker path read the live property too; both now read server.pauseOnConnect like Node's onconnection, pinned by reads server.pauseOnConnect per connection (fails before: bytesRead 5, paused false; node prints paused true, 0). Setting the property after listen() still only changes the stream state, the native listener keeps the value it was created with, same class as allowHalfOpen. (3) onconnection wrote a pauseOnConnect expando onto every accepted handle object that nothing reads, removed. (4) pauseOnCreate sets readableFlowing = false exactly like Node's instead of calling pause(), which also emitted 'pause'. Left alone on purpose: an in-place tls upgrade of a socket that already has bytes in its JS buffer ignores them (Node does the same, pre-existing), us_socket_pause arming writable interest on every pause (#37099), and the typed option question above.

What pins what: the four end/close tests and the two paused-while-connecting tests fail on main (pause() and its connecting check). test-net-server-pause-on-connect.js (bytesRead === 0) pins the accepted socket being paused natively now that JS no longer pauses it, the cluster early-bytes test pins the primary's accept, the strengthened cluster pauseOnConnect test (write barrier, bytesRead) pins the worker's from_fd adoption, applies to a dialed socket pins the dial path, the tls test pins the post-handshake pause, node-net-paused-unix-hangup-fixture.js pins the AF_UNIX accept with a peer hangup while paused. The cluster test's barrier is the client's write callback: on loopback the bytes are in the peer's receive queue when send(2) returns, the IPC message follows it, and a signal from the accepted socket itself would need the read the test asserts does not happen. socket-syscall-fault.test.ts's parked-socket test used a plain pause() to reach a stopped handle and now uses onread mode, its expected output is unchanged. node-net.test.ts's paused-reset test does the same and pauses after the 'connect' listeners ran (on main the queued _read() restarted the handle right after that pause).

Suites. Linux, debug build, every remaining failure is unrelated and was matched against the released binary or a debug build of main: test/js/node/net/ (10 localhost resolves to ::1 here, unref survives an autoSelectFamily retry also fails on main's debug build), test/js/node/tls/ (1 localhost), test/js/node/http/ (1 localhost, 3 subprocess tests that pass with a longer timeout), test/js/node/http2/, cluster.test.ts, bun-serve-file.test.ts, websocket-server-backpressure-buffer, sql-mariadb-json, the valkey tests that pause a peer: clean. test/js/node/child_process/ (a GC test that passes with a longer timeout, a shell test that fails on the released binary too). test/js/bun/net/ (13 localhost failures, same on the released binary). serve.test.ts and bun-server.test.ts (4 and 3, same on the released binary). fetch.test.ts and websocket-server.test.ts: the extra failures against the released binary are all timeouts at load average 40 on this host and pass alone. Vendored: 139 test-net-*, 80 test-cluster-*, 16 sequential net/cluster, 186 test-tls-* (one needs bun test) pass; earlier rounds also ran 445 test-http*/test-https-* and 179 test-child-process-* with only the failures noted in the review thread. After the last round (80a1cea): node-net, socket-reconnect-live, renegotiation, node-tls-server, node-tls-connect and cluster.test.ts (238 pass, the 12 failures above), bun/net/socket.test.ts (the same 9 failures as the released binary), 40 vendored cluster handoff tests and the 4 vendored pause tests. Windows x64 (debug build of the first native head): the two vendored pause tests, the cluster, tls and net selections above (27 + 7 + 2 + 2 tests), node-net.test.ts + allowHalfOpen + bun/net/socket.test.ts (168 pass, 0 fail), and a pauseOnConnect server on a named pipe (bytesRead 0 until resume(), like node). The Windows code did not change after that.

Socket instances had a pauseOnConnect field that only SocketHandlers2.open read. Both are gone. Node's net.Socket has no such field.

Status: reported directly by a maintainer (no issue). Reproduced on bun 1.4.0 and on a debug build of main with the proxy script from the report, for tls and for plain net. As of head 80a1cea: pause() follows node (the six end/close and paused-while-connecting tests fail on main), pauseOnConnect sockets come up paused natively (asked for in review), a reused wrapper's paused state is reset per connection and the TLS pause is one-shot (review round 2), and the review pass asked for by the reporter produced round 3: the open-paused registration is limited to accepted and adopted sockets and keeps its kqueue read knote, server.pauseOnConnect is read per connection like node, a dead per-accept expando is gone, pauseOnCreate matches node's. Twelve new tests, each round's in the PR body together with what it checked and left alone. Linux and Windows runs are listed there too.

CI for 80a1cea (build 102960, finished): 178 of 179 jobs pass. The one failed job is Windows x64, on test/js/bun/http/bun-server.test.ts (a GC count), which fails the same way on main and is reported separately. The darwin lanes passed, which includes the new test for the kqueue change. Ready for a maintainer.

@Jarred-Sumner on doing pauseOnCreate natively: what it would look like, so you can say which way you want it.

What the helper does today: readStop (the same _handle.pause() main already made from these sites, plus the unref that keeps a stopped handle from holding the loop) and Duplex.prototype.pause. This PR moves no work from native to JS, it renames the call.

The native version: a listen option bit next to LIBUS_SOCKET_ALLOW_HALF_OPEN. us_internal_init_listen_socket stores it, and the accept loop in loop.c starts the accepted poll without read interest and with is_paused set, so resume() arms it through the existing us_socket_resume. Not for an SSL listener, whose handshake needs the reads (that case stays a stop after the handshake). The same bit for us_socket_from_fd, which is how a cluster worker adopts a connection. The Rust wrapper has to start with IS_PAUSED set, or resume() is a no-op. Bun.listen needs an option to carry it, since net.ts listens through Bun.listen. The gain is on the cluster primary: today each accepted connection costs an EPOLL_CTL_ADD and then the MOD of the pause, which also arms writable and wakes the loop once more (#37099 is about that arming). The JS side keeps the unref and the Duplex pause, so the helper stays and only loses the native call.

My preference is a follow-up: it touches the three event backends and adds a Bun.listen option, and this PR is the 1.4.0 regression. If you want it in this PR, say so and I will add it here.

Review round: pause() in onread mode now also checks connecting, as node does (lib/net.js#L818). Without it a TLS onread client paused right after tls.connect() unref'd its connecting handle and the process exited before the handshake, on main as well. node-tls-connect.test.ts covers the plain and the onread variant, both print only exit 0 on main. The paused-reset test in node-net.test.ts uses onread mode and pauses after the 'connect' listeners ran, so the handle is stopped when the reset arrives (before, the _read() that connect() queues restarted it right after the pause, also on main). The proxy test waits for both servers to close. The src/ comments are one line each.

Note for #39653: after this change a plain pause() no longer stops the handle, so a test that needs a natively paused socket has to use onread mode or backpressure. Its accepted-socket tests get there through the 64 KiB chunk that fills the buffer, as the two existing ones in node-tls-server.test.ts do, which pass here.

[robobun]

Done natively, as asked (b638cf2, head bc7fde4). The PR body describes the result. In short:

• usockets: LIBUS_SOCKET_OPEN_PAUSED. A listener created with it registers each accepted socket with no read interest (loop.c), us_socket_from_fd and the connect paths (context.c) do the same for their socket. TLS sockets are exempt at all three sites, they have to read to handshake. us_socket_pause is not involved any more, so the extra epoll_ctl and the writable arming per accepted connection are gone on a cluster primary.
• Rust: Flags::PAUSE_ON_CONNECT, read off the listen and connect options the way localAddress is. on_open records the state (IS_PAUSED, so resume() works), which is also what pauses a Windows named pipe, and the handshake path pauses a TLS socket once it is done.
• net.ts: pauseOnConnect goes into the Bun.listen and doConnect configs. pauseOnCreate only sets the stream state and drops the loop hold, there is no native pause call left for pauseOnConnect. The remaining JS stop is afterConnect for a stream that was paused while connecting, where Node makes the same decision by not calling read(0), since the loop hold is JS state (kPausedUnref). Say so if you want that part native too, it means moving the ref/unref bookkeeping of usockets: defer eof for a paused socket that already sent FIN; stop backpressure pauses from holding the loop #33974 down as well.

Tests: test-net-server-pause-on-connect.js now pins the native accept (JS no longer pauses), the cluster pauseOnConnect test got a write barrier and asserts bytesRead (pins from_fd in the worker), a new tls test pins the post-handshake pause, and the parked-socket fault test in test/js/bun/net uses onread mode to reach a stopped handle. Checked on Linux (suites in the body) and on a Windows x64 debug build: cluster, tls and net selections, node-net.test.ts + bun/net/socket.test.ts (168 pass), and a pauseOnConnect server on a named pipe reads nothing until resume().

The option is read by hand, so Bun.listen/Bun.connect do not grow a typed option here. Passing pauseOnConnect to them works and means what it says, promoting it to the dictionary is a separate decision.

Ran the test file from #35151 (test/js/node/tls/tls-pause-handshake.test.ts) against a debug build of this branch at 2c6c0bc, three runs.

Three of its four cases pass here: s.pause() inside the tls.Server 'connection' handler, s.pause() inside the 'secureConnection' handler, and tls.connect({ pauseOnConnect: true }). The first and the third of these fail on main (the handshake never completes). The second passes on main as well.

One case fails: server: pauseOnConnect: true. The handshake completes and the socket is handed out paused, on this branch and on main. The failing assertion is the next one. After the client writes 5 bytes, #35151 expects readableLength === 5 on the paused socket. This branch reports 0, the bytes stay in the kernel. That is the behavior the new pauseOnConnect test in this PR pins (bytesRead: 0). Node v26.3.0 reports readableLength 5 and bytesRead 5 in the same situation. Main reports 0 too, so this branch does not change that observable. A user pause() in the 'connection' handler does read ahead on this branch (the first case above sees readableLength 5), so the difference is limited to the pauseOnConnect option.

The vendored test-tls-server-parent-constructor-options.js that #35151 adds passes on this branch and on main.

So this PR covers the handshake stall from #35151 on all of its paths. #35151 stays open for the read-ahead question on pauseOnConnect, which this PR and #35151 pin in opposite directions.

I reviewed this PR and the bug hunting system found no new issues; the three findings from earlier runs (GC-unsafe getter ordering in SocketConfig::from_js, one-shot PAUSE_ON_CONNECT for TLS renegotiation, and the weakened paused-RST test) were each fixed and pinned by tests. Given the scope — low-level epoll/kqueue poll registration changes, a user-visible Socket.prototype.pause semantics change, and the acknowledged divergence with #35151 on TLS pauseOnConnect read-ahead — a human look is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

• us_poll_start_rc kqueue change — verified it only affects POLL_TYPE_SOCKET polls without read interest, so listen/connect semi-sockets and callbacks are unchanged.
• pauseOnConnect getter ordering in from_js — runs before the unrooted handlers cell exists; both callers pre-validate opts is an object.
• on_open clearing IS_PAUSED and pause_on_connect_once consuming the flag — covers reconnect and TLS 1.2 renegotiation re-dispatch.
• net.ts pause() narrowed to onread-mode only; readStop still fires on push()===false and afterConnect for a paused non-TLS dial.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR changes net.Socket.prototype.pause to match Node's semantics (only stop the native handle for an onread-mode connected socket; otherwise keep reading into the stream buffer so peer FIN/RST is still observed). It threads a new pauseOnConnect bit through Bun.listen/Bun.connect → SocketConfig → Listener/NewSocket flags → usockets, adds LIBUS_SOCKET_OPEN_PAUSED so accepted/adopted sockets can be registered without read interest from the start (saving epoll_ctl churn), and adjusts the kqueue us_poll_start_rc path so an open-paused socket still gets an EV_CLEAR read knote for FIN/RST detection. Twelve new tests plus adjustments to two existing tests whose preconditions changed.

Security risks

None identified. No auth, crypto, or permission surfaces. The kqueue/epoll changes affect which events are armed for a paused socket but do not weaken any validation. pauseOnConnect is read via get_truthy before the unrooted handlers cell exists, avoiding the GC hazard flagged and fixed earlier.

Level of scrutiny

High. This touches the core socket eventing layer across three backends (epoll, kqueue, libuv) and changes user-visible pause() behavior for every net.Socket. The kqueue us_poll_start_rc change in particular reasons about knote lifecycle (old_events=READABLE with is_repause=1 on a fresh fd) — the PR description explains this matches what a later us_socket_pause transition produces, and the darwin-specific test pins it, but the reasoning is subtle enough that a maintainer familiar with kqueue_change should confirm. The net.ts change is a Node-compat behavior change: bytes now land in the JS buffer while paused, which the PR description explicitly calls out as the Node behavior and why pauseOnConnect is documented for handoffs.

Other factors

• All three of my prior inline findings were addressed with dedicated tests (socket-reconnect-live.test.ts, renegotiation.test.ts, and the reworked paused-RST test in node-net.test.ts).
• All CodeRabbit threads are resolved.
• The PR description notes an open behavioral question vs #35151: TLS pauseOnConnect leaves bytes in the kernel (bytesRead: 0) here, while Node's TLSWrap reads ahead (bytesRead: 5). This PR pins the former; #35151 pins the latter. That is a design decision a maintainer should weigh in on.
• The PR adds pauseOnConnect as an untyped pass-through to Bun.listen/Bun.connect and explicitly defers the typed-API decision to a maintainer.
• No human reviewer has looked at this yet.
