net.BoundSocket now supports Unix domain and named pipe paths (
b420cb6)
BoundSocket can now bind via path instead of only TCP host/port pairs, including Linux abstract namespace sockets via a leading \0. The API docs and tests spell out the new isPipe/address() behavior and synchronous path reservation semantics, making it possible to adopt pre-bound pipe sockets with clearer error handling.
Perfetto tracing support is wired into Node (
5bdc82d)
Node now has a Perfetto-backed tracing agent, new perfetto-specific trace event plumbing, and build/configuration support to enable it with --with-perfetto. This is a major tracing architecture change that adds a new tracing backend while preserving legacy behavior behind build-time switches.
readline.createInterface() is cheaper to construct (
9041ad0)
Interface creation now avoids per-instance closure/descriptor churn, stops mutating the user-provided input stream with history options, and only checks TERM in terminal mode. The new benchmark and refactor target hot-path overhead, so this should translate into lower allocation pressure and faster startup for readline-heavy code.
Stream iterators handle aborts and overflow more predictably (
7bee754, e383a1d)
The merge-read path now correctly rejects pending reads on cancellation, and broadcast backpressure overflow is now reported as a RangeError. These are focused correctness fixes that make async iterator stream behavior more consistent and easier to handle.
Other misc changes
- DNS tests updated to codify
ENODATAbehavior for empty-record lookups and CNAME chains. - Docs cleanup for unsupported
stream_itersyntax. - Dependency bumps and backports: googletest, histogram, amaro, and V8.
- Minor internal cleanup and trace macro compatibility fixes.
- Windows/libuv assertion fix when stopping delayed tasks.
