libuv dispatches its callbacks from inside uv_run, and every handler they reach enters/exits the event loop on its own, so on Windows the outermost exit - the microtask checkpoint - ran on libuv's dispatch frame. A promise reaction queued by an I/O callback that then drives the loop again (waitForPromise: bun:test's expect(promise).resolves, for one) nested a second uv_run inside the callback, under a dispatch that still reads the socket/handle it dispatched on once the callback returns. That is the use-after-free test/bake/deinitialization.test.ts keeps hitting on Windows. us_loop_run and us_loop_pump now bracket uv_run with EventLoop::enter() / exit() when the loop belongs to a jsc::EventLoop whose VM is alive. Each callback's own enter/exit is then a nested pair, no checkpoint runs inside uv_run, and the callbacks' nextTicks and promise reactions run once uv_run has returned - so a continuation that drives the loop does it sequentially rather than nested. This covers microtask-driven re-entry only; a callback whose own body drives the loop still nests.
…ck closed The event-loop scope around uv_run only moves microtask-driven re-entry out of it. A callback whose own body drives the loop again - bun:test's un-awaited expect(promise).resolves inside a socket data() handler, process.exit()'s drain - still nests uv_run inside the outer run's dispatch, and that dispatch reads what it dispatched on once the callback returns. Two things a nested run freed under it on Windows: - The closed usockets socket. us_internal_loop_post already defers freeing the loop's closed sockets while loop->data.tick_depth > 1; the epoll/kqueue ticks maintain tick_depth, the libuv backend never did. us_loop_run / us_loop_pump now count it in the same bracket as the scope. - The libuv handle under it. uv_run completes handle closes (endgame: unlink, then the close callback that frees the handle) right after the check phase. A poll closed from its own poll_cb had its close completed by the nested run; once poll_cb returned, uv__fast_poll_process_poll_req found it "closing, nothing outstanding" again and queued the endgame a second time - close callback twice, uv__handle_close on an unlinked handle, and the us_poll_start_rc / allocator free-list crashes that follow. check_cb (which runs immediately before uv__process_endgames) now takes the queued endgames off the loop while tick_depth > 1 and hands them back at the outermost tick. New socket.test.ts case: a Bun.connect socket terminate()d inside data() followed by nested event-loop ticks and same-size-class allocation churn; it segfaulted every run on a Windows release build with the scope alone.

Guard the churn connections against connect failures.
The churn connections at line 37 have no error handler and no rejection handling. If any Bun.connect fails, Promise.all(churn) at line 45 rejects and the test fails. A connect failure is unrelated to the regression under test, so this can produce a spurious failure on a loaded CI machine.
Swallow the churn failures. The churn only needs to allocate and free sockets.
As per coding guidelines: "CRITICAL: Do not write flaky tests."

Relax the stdout banner assertion.
The regex is fully anchored and requires a trailing "\n". It couples this regression test to the exact bun test banner format. Two failure modes are unrelated to the regression under test:
- The runner adds or reorders banner text.
- The output ends with
"\r\n"on Windows.\S+cannot match\r, so the anchored\)\n$does not match.
This PR targets Windows, so the test must be reliable there. Assert only that the banner is present.

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Since it's explicitly framed as an alternative to #39910 for comparison, and it changes microtask-checkpoint timing on Windows while reaching into libuv's internal endgame_handles list, a maintainer should weigh the design trade-off before this lands.
Checked: the held_endgames list splice/restore ordering (queued → held on nest, held → queued at outermost, UV_HANDLE_ENDGAME_QUEUED stays set so uv__want_endgame won't double-queue); the Rust InternalLoopData mirror stays layout-consistent with the new trailing held_endgames field; tick_while_paused calling uv_run directly was examined and ruled out (debugger-only, no JS re-entry).
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR reworks how Bun's Windows (libuv) event-loop backend handles re-entrant uv_run calls. It brackets every uv_run in us_loop_run/us_loop_pump with EventLoop::enter()/exit() (via two new Bun__JSEventLoop__enter/exit FFI exports) and a tick_depth counter, then intercepts libuv's endgame queue in check_cb: while nested, closing handles are moved off uv_loop->endgame_handles onto a new loop->data.held_endgames list so the inner uv__process_endgames cannot free a handle the outer dispatch frame will still read; the outermost tick puts them back. It touches libuv.c, the C loop_data.h struct and its Rust mirror, adds two Rust host exports in event_loop.rs, and ships a subprocess fixture + socket.test.ts case reproducing the UAF.
Security risks
None identified. This is internal event-loop plumbing with no untrusted-input parsing, auth, or network-protocol surface. The risk class here is memory safety (UAF, double-close), which is what the change is fixing; the bug hunter found no new issues in that class.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is core event-loop machinery on a memory-safety-critical path, it directly manipulates vendored libuv internals (endgame_handles / endgame_next are not public libuv API), and it deliberately changes observable semantics on Windows relative to POSIX/Node (one microtask checkpoint per uv_run instead of per I/O callback). Most importantly, the PR description itself frames this as one of two competing designs ("an alternative shape for the Windows re-entrancy fix in #39910, for comparison") — that is a maintainer decision, not something an automated review should settle.
Other factors
The test coverage is solid (spawned fixture that reliably crashed on main, plus the broad suite list in the description). The struct-mirror change is append-only at the tail under #ifdef LIBUS_USE_LIBUV / #[cfg(windows)], so existing field offsets are undisturbed. The endgame hold/release logic was traced against uv__want_endgame's UV_HANDLE_ENDGAME_QUEUED guard and looks correct (held handles keep the flag, so a re-queue is a no-op). Given the explicit design-comparison framing and the depth of the change, deferring to a human is the right call.

…was being dispatched (#40034) ### Problem - A request whose connection closes while its handler is still being dispatched never aborts: `request.signal` stays silent, a pending body read never settles, `pendingRequests` stays at 1. If its `Promise<Response>` settles later, rendering hits a freed socket: `heap-use-after-free ... in us_socket_group` (`socket.c:77`), a segfault on a release build. - Cause: the `RequestContext` subscribes to the close (uWS `onAborted`) only in `to_async()` (`RequestContext.rs:2323`), at the end of the dispatch. A close dispatched before that finds no subscriber, and subscribing to a closed socket is a no-op (`libuwsockets.cpp:1535`). - `server.stop(true)` inside the handler closes the socket right there: a `POST` whose body is still arriving is then parked forever and the `stop()` promise never resolves. Anything that runs the event loop from inside the handler does the same, which is the CI hang of "a request's abort listener closing an open ServerWebSocket" (`websocket-server.test.ts`): its `expect().rejects` waits inside the handler's microtask checkpoint. ### Fix - `set_abort_handler()` runs `on_abort` itself when the socket is already closed, after the `url` and headers snapshot `to_async()` would have made. `should_render_missing()` treats a closed socket like a detached one, so a request without a body reaches it too instead of rendering a 204 into the dead socket. - `on_response()` and the `error()` path check for the close once their callback has returned, before anything is rendered, and `do_render_stream` subscribes before it attaches the stream body. These cover the nested event loop case; they have no tests here (see notes). - Correct because uSockets keeps a closed socket allocated until the outermost tick ends, and `on_abort` finds the state the uWS callback would have found. Teardown inside the frame uses the existing `defer_deinit_until_callback_completes` path. - Verified: `test/js/bun/http/serve-pending-promise-abort-leak.test.ts`, "server.stop(true) inside the handler of a GET / a POST with its body in flight aborts it". Both fail on main on Linux and Windows. The flaky test: 34 of 40 loaded runs hang on a release build without this fix, 0 of 40 with it. ### Background - `on_abort` is the only teardown for a connection that dies before the response starts. It fires `request.signal`, detaches `resp`, and releases the refs. - The dispatch frame is the synchronous path from uWS's request callback through the handler, `on_response()`, `error()`, and `to_async()`. - `AnyResponse::is_closed()` is new. It is always false for HTTP/3, where `us_quic_on_close` frees the stream at once, so that path is unchanged. <details><summary>Notes</summary> Tests for the nested event loop case were removed at review: they closed the connection from inside the handler and waited for it synchronously, with `expect().resolves` or with `Bun.build()` and a plugin whose `setup()` returns a promise, and they could not run on Windows, where the libuv backend frees the closed socket inside the nested run and uWS's own dispatch segfaults on it (with or without this fix, see #40021). The `on_response()`, `error()` and `do_render_stream` checks are kept for that case. A plain script that segfaults on main and prints "aborted" with the fix: ```ts const server = Bun.serve({ port: 0, async fetch(req) { req.signal.addEventListener("abort", () => console.log("aborted")); client.end(); const result = await Bun.build({ entrypoints: ["./entry.ts"], plugins: [{ name: "slow-setup", setup: () => clientClosed }], }); return new Response(await result.outputs[0].text()); }, }); const client = connect(server.port, "127.0.0.1", () => client.write("GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: x\r\n\r\n")); const clientClosed = new Promise<void>(resolve => client.once("close", () => resolve())); ``` Nested event loop runs reachable from user code, checked with a timer that fires during the call: `Bun.build()` with a plugin whose `setup()` returns a promise (`JSBundler.rs`, `wait_for_promise`), `require()` of a file that uses an async macro and `Bun.Transpiler.transformSync()` with one (`Macro.rs`), and bun:test's `expect().resolves` / `.rejects`. `Bun.spawnSync` runs an isolated loop and does not count. ASAN stack on main for the late resolve: `handle_resolve` -> `render` -> `do_render_blob` -> `uws_res_cork` -> `AsyncSocket::isCorked` -> `us_socket_group`, freed by `us_internal_free_closed_sockets` in `us_internal_loop_post`. `server.stop(true)` path on main: `on_response()` returns early on the server's terminated flag. `should_render_missing()` then rendered a 204 into the closed socket for a request without a body, and sent one with a body in flight down `to_async()`, which parked it forever (its `req.text()` never settled and the `stop()` promise never resolved). Now both go through `set_abort_handler()` and abort, like an in-flight async request does when `stop(true)` closes its socket. CI: the flaky annotation lists the websocket test in 139 of the last 400 builds (8 of 8 on main) in about 18 hours, on every platform. A copy of the test with a watchdog showed the fetch rejected and then nothing: the process held three socket fds (listener, both ends of the WebSocket), uSockets had closed the `/abort-me` server socket, but the abort listener never ran. Why it is load dependent: `wait_for_promise` runs `tick()` first and polls I/O only if the promise is still pending. Unloaded, the HTTP thread's failure task has usually arrived before the wait starts, so the nested run never polls I/O and the outer loop dispatches the RST after `to_async()`. Under load the nested run polls. The debug build is slow enough on the JS thread that it rarely reproduces either way (0 of 12 unfixed), which is why the A/B uses release builds of this tree with and without `src/`. Cost: one flag load per request in `on_response()`, one more per `error()` call and per `should_render_missing()`. Suites run on the debug build: `serve.test.ts`, `bun-server.test.ts`, `serve-http3.test.ts`, `bun-serve-routes`, `bun-serve-file`, `bun-serve-propagate-errors`, `serve-direct-readable-stream`, `serve-async-stream-client-abort`, `serve-error-handler-stream`, `serve-stream-body-error`, `serve-response-stream-sink-leak`, `serve-stream-reject-flush-leak`, `serve-body-leak`, `serve-response-gc-backpressure-abort`, `websocket-server.test.ts`, `bake/deinitialization.test.ts`, `bake/dev/request-cookies.test.ts`, `bun-serve-html.test.ts`. Failures identical on main in this container: `serve.test.ts` requestIP v6, root range port, #6583, /bun:info; `bun-server.test.ts` source map stream, rejected promise logging, abruptly close upload (all `localhost`/IPv6); the `websocket-server.test.ts` send() benchmark timeout (#39370), which starves its siblings on the debug build. </details> <!-- robobun:evidence:begin --> --- **[review]** gate passed · iteration 1 · 4 files touched <details><summary>fails on main (without fix)</summary> ```console ASAN without fix: 2 FAILED $ BUN_DEBUG_QUIET_LOGS=1 bun scripts/build.ts --profile=debug --quiet test "--reporter=junit" "--reporter-outfile=/tmp/mechgate.xml" test/js/bun/http/serve-pending-promise-abort-leak.test.ts bun test v1.4.1 (4448a2e) test/js/bun/http/serve-pending-promise-abort-leak.test.ts: (pass) RequestContext is freed when client aborts before Promise<Response> settles [1915.23ms] (pass) Promise<Response> still works normally when not aborted [34.15ms] (pass) resolve() inside abort handler is handled safely [32.14ms] (pass) streaming 413 detaches the response so a late resolve/reject is a no-op [7613.11ms] (pass) chunked request body consumed as a ReadableStream is capped at maxRequestBodySize [743.87ms] (pass) client abort frees the context even while the resolve function stays reachable [63.89ms] (pass) client abort while a direct stream pull() is parked frees the context and rejects a pending req.text() read [89.71ms] (pass) client abort while a direct stream pull() is parked frees the context and rejects a pending for await (req.body) read [72.37ms] (pass) client abort while a direct stream pull() is parked frees the context and rejects a pending req.textStream() read [66 ...

What does this PR do?
An alternative shape for the Windows re-entrancy fix in #39910, for comparison: instead of changing what the poll's owner does, put one event-loop scope around
uv_runitself.Commit 1 — the scope.
us_loop_run/us_loop_pumpbracketuv_runwithEventLoop::enter()/exit()when the loop belongs to ajsc::EventLoopwith a live VM. Every JS callback libuv dispatches is then a nested scope, so no microtask checkpoint runs insideuv_run; the callbacks' nextTicks/promise reactions run once it returns. A continuation that drives the loop again (waitForPromise) becomes a sequentialuv_runinstead of one nested under libuv's dispatch. Microtask-driven re-entry only.Commit 2 — synchronous re-entry. A callback whose own body drives the loop (un-awaited
expect(p).resolves,process.exit()'s drain) still nests. The same bracket now countstick_depth(as the epoll/kqueue ticks do), and a nested tick leaves what the outer dispatch may still read for the outermost tick to free: closed sockets (us_internal_loop_post, existing check) and closing libuv handles —check_cb, which runs right beforeuv__process_endgames, takes queued endgames off the loop whiletick_depth > 1and puts them back at the outermost tick.Knowingly different from POSIX/Node: one checkpoint per
uv_runrather than per I/O callback (socket B'sdatacan run before socket A's promise reactions); dispatchers that drain explicitly (Bun.serve, node:http) still drain insideuv_run.How did you verify your code works?
