Fixes #10137.

Dynamic HTTP-server dispatch fabricated a stack InlineArgsHeader and passed it through parse_listen_args. After the accessor conversion in #10077, that buffer reaches js_array_get, whose receiver contract requires a managed runtime array. Instrumenting the original HTTP/2 fixture shows both the stored numeric zero and the stored callback pointer returning the canonical NaN bits 7ff8000000000000. The requested ephemeral port is lost, the default port is selected, and the completion callback remains unset.

Share overload parsing between real managed arrays and borrowed values, and let the HTTP/HTTPS/HTTP2 bind implementations accept the parsed arguments internally. Dynamic dispatch consumes its existing argument slice directly. Bun.serve had the same fabricated-array pattern and now passes its rooted options value through the shared parser. Exported listen signatures stay compatible, and real arrays still use the offset-aware accessor. No GC or codegen array-layout changes are needed.

Validation:

  • Original test_gap_gc_http2_pending_event_callback_rooting.ts: Node exits successfully; baseline Perry times out after 10 seconds without output. With this fix, Perry finishes in 0.55 seconds and matches all three settings/ping/close callback lines.
  • All 89 HTTP extension unit tests pass with RUST_TEST_THREADS=1, including new borrowed-argument overload checks and a managed-array control that proves its shifted queue offset is live.
  • Four native HTTP/HTTPS cases match Node 26.5.1: numeric port/host/backlog and options-object overloads, ephemeral binding, callback delivery, close callbacks, and chaining. HTTPS uses a temporary self-signed certificate.
  • Both existing Bun.serve integration fixtures pass when compiled and run with coherent local archives: request/error/lifecycle handling and explicit TLS rejection.
  • Original full HTTP/2 fixture passes protected-from-space GC stress in default O0 and compact Oz modes. Each run records 111 copying minors, 18,826 moved objects, and 60,000 loop polls; retired-memory protection and evacuation verification are enabled.
  • Coherent compiler/runtime/stdlib/net/http archive build, Node-pin check, and diff checks pass. pre-tag-check.sh --quick passes every check except inherited public benchmark freshness; its artifact, verifier, and all 66 relevant input paths are unchanged from base d8bfa28a38.

Temporary argument tracing is removed. No version bump.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fixed dynamic server.listen() argument handling for HTTP, HTTPS, and HTTP/2 servers.
    • Port, host, backlog, callback, and shifted-argument overloads now resolve correctly instead of producing invalid values.
    • Improved compatibility for HTTP/2 settings, ping, and close behavior to match expected Node.js behavior.
    • Bun.serve listening configuration now uses the same reliable overload handling.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The listen argument parser now accepts borrowed values and managed arrays. Dynamic dispatch and Bun.serve pass parsed ListenArgs directly to HTTP, HTTPS, and HTTP/2 server implementations. Tests cover shifted arrays and borrowed overload values.

Changes

HTTP listen argument handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared listen argument parsing
crates/perry-ext-http/src/server/types.rs
Listen overload resolution is shared by managed-array and borrowed-value inputs. Tests validate callback, port, host, backlog, and shifted-array handling.
Parsed arguments in server implementations
crates/perry-ext-http/src/server/server.rs, crates/perry-ext-http/src/server/https_server.rs, crates/perry-ext-http/src/server/http2_server.rs
The FFI entry points parse listen arguments and delegate binding and accept-loop work to helpers receiving ListenArgs.
Direct dispatcher and Bun.serve wiring
crates/perry-ext-http/src/server/handle_dispatch.rs, crates/perry-ext-http/src/server/bun_server.rs, changelog.d/10238-http-listen-arguments.md
Dynamic dispatch and Bun.serve no longer fabricate array-shaped argument buffers. They parse values and call the server helpers directly. The changelog records the fix.

Root the copied object options before extracting the host.

Bun.serve roots options, but parse_listen_values copies options.get() into ListenArgs.opts. listen_http_server copies this value to opts_f64. extract_port then calls json_stringify for pointer values. This operation can allocate and invoke toJSON callbacks, so a moving GC can update options while leaving opts_f64 stale. extract_host can then read obsolete pointer bits.

Root parsed.opts in listen_http_server with TransientRootScope. Pass opts_root.get() to extract_port, then reload the root and pass opts_root.get() to extract_host. Add a forced-GC Bun.serve({ port, host }) test.
