packages/bun-usockets/src/crypto/openssl.c— A half-closed TLS client that is still reading can have its response cut off by the idle timeout mid-body, while the non-TLS path keeps the connection alive. When the ciphertext spill stalls after the peer's FIN and the probe says healthy, openssl.c:2427 returns s without dispatching, so HttpContext.h:814 resetTimeout never runs for this socket; the idle timer keeps counting from before the stall. Fix: on the healthy-stall path either reset the socket timeout (mirror HttpContext.h:814) or dispatch writable so the HTTP layer can, keeping node:http and Bun.serve TLS behaviour in step with plain TCP.Extended reasoning...
The base closed a FIN'd TLS socket at the first spill stall (the gate returned 1). The new gate at openssl.c:2421-2422 now returns 0 for ENOBUFS/EAGAIN, so control falls to
return s;at :2427. That return skips us_dispatch_writable, so HttpContext::onWritable and its resetTimeout at HttpContext.h:814 are never reached for this stall; the plain-TCP path resets the timeout on every stall. With Bun.serve's default idleTimeout of 10s, a slow half-closed client whose spill drain keeps stalling (macOS ENOBUFS, Linux memory pressure) is closed by the idle timer once the last reset ages out, and the client sees a truncated body, which is the very truncation this PR fixes, now only on TLS. The dismissing finder called this pre-existing because non-FIN sockets took the same return, but the FIN'd population is new to this path and the PR itself asserts TLS and non-TLS get the same treatment. Population: node:https and Bun.serve TLS servers with half-closing clients under send stalls. Remedy: reset the timeout (or dispatch) on the healthy-stall return.Verification: nit. Trigger: a Bun.serve HTTPS response to a half-closed (FIN-sent, still-reading) client whose TLS ciphertext spill keeps getting zero-progress send() results (ENOBUFS on macOS / EAGAIN under Linux tcp memory pressure) on every writable event continuously for the whole uWS idleTimeout window (default 10 s).

The comment-length nit from the last pass is addressed in 45b3024, and I found no bugs in this version; because it changes when every HTTP/TLS server path decides a peer is dead, and the kqueue behaviour of the probe was derived from XNU source rather than run, a human look at the macOS side is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- The new non-libuv branch of
us_socket_stalled_write_means_peer_gone: on Linuxtcp_sendmsgcheckssk_err/SEND_SHUTDOWNbefore the zero-length copy loop, andtcp_donesetsSHUTDOWN_MASK, so a post-RST probe returns EPIPE even after an earlier failed send consumedsk_err; ENOBUFS/EAGAIN cannot come out of a zero-length send. - Platform gating:
bsd_send_probeis!_WIN32and Windows always selectsLIBUS_USE_LIBUV, so the undeclared symbol is never referenced;us_internal_send_errno_is_peer_gonesits under the same#ifndef _WIN32as its new caller;MSG_NOSIGNALis defined to 0 above the probe andSO_NOSIGPIPEis set at socket creation, so no SIGPIPE on macOS. - All three gates (HttpContext.h node:http and tryEnd paths, openssl.c spill drain) go through the single helper and no rewritten comment still describes the old libuv-only exception.
- The test's swallowed client
errorevent only hides diagnostics; the exact byte-count assertion still fails on truncation.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR rewrites us_socket_stalled_write_means_peer_gone() in packages/bun-usockets/src/socket.c so that on epoll/kqueue it no longer returns 1 unconditionally. It adds bsd_send_probe() (a zero-byte send() with MSG_NOSIGNAL|MSG_DONTWAIT and EINTR retry) in bsd.c/bsd.h, and returns peer-gone only when that probe fails with an errno that us_internal_send_errno_is_peer_gone() classifies as fatal. The libuv branch (SO_ERROR + reset probe) is unchanged. Comments in libusockets.h, openssl.c, and HttpContext.h are updated, and three in-process tests are added to test/js/node/http/node-http-syscall-fault.test.ts that inject four ENOBUFS send() results after a half-closing client sent its request and FIN, asserting the full 8 MiB body arrives for node:http, node:https and Bun.serve.
Since the previous review, commit 45b3024 shortened the prose comments that were the subject of the one earlier nit; nothing else changed in the native code.
Security risks
None specific to this change. The probe sends zero bytes from a string literal, does not read peer data, and does not alter TLS or auth logic. The only behavioural change is that a healthy half-closed peer is no longer disconnected on a transient send stall, which is the intended fix. A misclassification in the other direction (probe returning 0 on a dead peer) would only re-create the pre-#37077 writable-poll spin on kqueue, not a memory-safety or data-exposure problem.
Level of scrutiny
Moderate-to-high: this helper gates connection close in every HTTP and TLS server path, and its correctness depends on kernel semantics of a zero-length send(). I traced the Linux path (tcp_sendmsg_locked checks sk_err and SEND_SHUTDOWN before the msg_data_left loop; tcp_done sets SHUTDOWN_MASK, so the probe still returns EPIPE even after a prior failed send consumed sk_err via sock_error), and the PR author measured Linux directly. The macOS/kqueue behaviour was derived by the author from XNU's sosendcheck, not run, and the new tests only execute on fault-injection (ASAN) builds, so CI will not exercise the kqueue case that motivated #37077. That is the reason for deferring rather than approving. Platform gating checks out: bsd_send_probe is declared only for !_WIN32, Windows always picks LIBUS_USE_LIBUV via the default in libusockets.h, and the peer-gone classifier lives under the same #ifndef _WIN32 block as the new caller. MSG_NOSIGNAL is defined to 0 on macOS above the probe and sockets are created with SO_NOSIGPIPE, so the probe cannot raise SIGPIPE.
Other factors
All three call sites (HttpContext.h node:http flushed==0 guard, the Bun.serve tryEnd retry guard, and the openssl.c spill drain) route through the one helper, so the class is fixed in one place. The candidate issue about the test swallowing the client socket's error event was ruled out as a diagnostics-only concern: the exact toEqual({ body: BODY, ended: true }) assertion still fails on truncation. The test structure follows the file's existing fault-injection conventions and cannot be satisfied by the probe itself, since the probe is deliberately not a fault point. I did not have a debug build available in this environment and did not build one, so I did not re-run the tests locally.

…loses the connection us_socket_stalled_write_means_peer_gone() returned 1 unconditionally on epoll and kqueue. us_socket_write folds every send() error to 0, so one ENOBUFS or EAGAIN on a writable event after the client's FIN closed a client that had half-closed and still read, and the rest of the response was dropped (node:http, node:https and Bun.serve). The function now sends zero bytes on epoll and kqueue and reports the peer as gone only for a peer-gone errno. A zero-byte send() needs no buffer space: it returns 0 on a live connection and fails with EPIPE after a reset, also when an earlier call consumed the socket error. The libuv branch already asked the kernel and does not change. Tests: send() fails with ENOBUFS four times after the client's FIN, and the whole body still arrives over node:http, node:https and Bun.serve.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline nit, I also checked: the non-libuv bsd_send_probe branch cannot be reached on Windows (LIBUS_USE_LIBUV is always defined there, matching the !defined(_WIN32) declaration); errno is read immediately after the raw send() with no fault-injection wrapper in between, so us_internal_send_errno_is_peer_gone(errno) classifies the probe's own result; and the earlier comment-length nit was addressed in 612d404. The kqueue behaviour of the probe is argued from XNU source rather than measured, so a maintainer with a Mac may want to run the script in the PR description.
Extended reasoning...
The change replaces an unconditional "peer is gone" answer in usockets' stalled-write gate with a zero-byte send() probe on epoll/kqueue, keeping the libuv path, and adds three fault-injection tests; it touches no auth or crypto surface. Windows compile gating, errno propagation into the peer-gone classifier, and the three callers (node:http, Bun.serve tryEnd tail, TLS spill drain) were checked and are unchanged apart from comments. The remaining uncertainty is the unmeasured kqueue probe semantics and the fact that fault injection only runs on ASAN builds, which is why a human look is still worthwhile.
The half-closed client recorded nothing about a socket error. events.once() rejected on it, so a reset failed the test with the errno and without the number of body bytes that arrived. The helper now records the error code in its result, and one toEqual shows both.

The tests for a stalled send() after the client's FIN passed with no stall at all when the first send() took the whole body. Nothing in the fault injection API said whether a rule fired. socketFaultInjection.hits(syscall) returns the number of calls that the rule for that syscall changed since set() armed it. clear() keeps the count. The three tests assert that all four stalls were spent. With a 1 KiB body they now fail with 0 or 1 hits.

hits() counted every call that a rule fired on. A "short" rule fires on a call that is already short enough and leaves it alone, so the count said that such a call was changed. The count now advances only when the call is changed. The repeat accounting does not change.

Those two are 156 bytes each in the release build of 367d939 (13 bytes of wrapper, 143 bytes of host call). I expect the same forhits()and did not build a release binary of this PR. The counter infault_inject.cis compiled only with fault injection.TLS spill. It is ciphertext that the kernel did not accept yet. It drains first on a writable event, and the TLS layer returns before it dispatches to the HTTP layer while the spill is pending. So
resetTimeout()inHttpContext::onWritabledoes not run for such an event. That is the idle timeout case under Downsides. It is not specific to a FIN.History. The inference is older than #37077. It came with #35034 (node:http gate), #35088 (
