Unhandled rejections in workers should not fire an error
event on the Worker
object
#12221
Comments
Classic workers were implemented in denoland#11338, which also enabled the WPT tests in the `workers` directory. However, the rest of WPT worker tests were not enabled because a number of them were hanging due to web-platform-tests/wpt#29777. Now that that WPT issue is fixed, the bulk of worker tests can be enabled. There are still a few tests that hang, and so haven't been enabled. In particular: - The following tests seem to hang because a promise fails to resolve. We can detect such cases in non-worker tests because the process will exit without calling the WPT completion callback, but in worker tests the worker message ops will keep the event loop running. This will be fixed when we add timeouts to WPT tests (denoland#9460). - `/fetch/api/basic/error-after-response.any.worker.html` - `/html/webappapis/microtask-queuing/queue-microtask-exceptions.any.worker.html` - `/webmessaging/message-channels/worker-post-after-close.any.worker.html` - `/webmessaging/message-channels/worker.any.worker.html` - `/websockets/Create-on-worker-shutdown.any.worker.html` - The following tests apparently hang because a promise rejection is never handled, which will kill the process in the main thread but not in workers (denoland#12221). - `/streams/readable-streams/async-iterator.any.worker.html` - `/workers/interfaces/WorkerUtils/importScripts/report-error-setTimeout-cross-origin.sub.any.worker.html` - `/workers/interfaces/WorkerUtils/importScripts/report-error-setTimeout-redirect-to-cross-origin.sub.any.worker.html` - `/workers/interfaces/WorkerUtils/importScripts/report-error-setTimeout-same-origin.sub.any.worker.html`

Most differences are intentional, but we can improve points 2 and 3.

That SGTM.
Having the process exit at some point after the async error is thrown is enough to prevent the hangs. (The real cause of the hangs is that WPT will not try to use |
Experimented with dispatching an error event for sync errors (so that it works more similar to browser) in #12242 . There seems to be some issues wrt to main worker exiting too early. Essentially due to Lines 267 to 268 in 34a1554
As the main thread exits under error, the handler code in the worker would simply die abruptly halfway since its thread handle is getting dropped along with it and cause the isolate to terminate. I wonder if blocking the main worker until the sync error handler code in the target worker is completed is acceptable by any chance? |

Is there any update ? Suffering from the same issue. |
I have the same problem. |
@nayeemrmn You wrote "most differences are intentional". What is the rationale behind those differences? |
Browsers won't close tabs on JS errors for example, but for a backend runtime we want to exit on errors as is standard |
This issue might be about something more complicated than what I'm dealing with, but in case it's helpful to others, here's a workaround to prevent // in worker script:
self.addEventListener("unhandledrejection", (event) => {
console.error("Unhandled rejection:", event.reason);
event.preventDefault();
self.close();
}); The |
The HTML spec defines steps for reporting runtime script errors (with the
error
event) and unhandled promise rejections (with theunhandledrejection
event). Both mechanisms are fairly similar, but they differ on what happens when an error or rejection happens inside a dedicated worker and is not caught by the corresponding event. Unhandled promise rejections will simply be reported to the console, as they would in a window agent, and never make it outside of the worker – while script errors will fire anerror
event to the correspondingWorker
object in the parent agent.Deno doesn't (yet?) implement the
unhandledrejection
event, and an unhandled rejection on the main thread will kill the process. However, an unhandled rejection in a worker will instead fire anerror
event on the correspondingWorker
object – which shouldn't happen per the spec. Arguably the process should be killed, as it would if it happened on the main thread.This is causing some worker tests to hang forever in #12222.
Here's a test to compare the behavior in Deno and in browsers.
All browsers fire the
unhandledrejection
event inside the worker, report the error, and don't fire any event in the main thread:While Deno will report the error inside the worker, fire the
error
event on the main thread'sworker
object, and then die because the error wasn't handled:(This screenshot uses Deno canary – 1.14.1 would panic because of #11342.)
