Summary

This change moves suppression tracking into the diagnostics channel runtime
using a per-async-context storage so suppression state survives Promise/timer
boundaries. It introduces a lazy AsyncLocalStorage-based context for suppression,
wires per-subscription/store opt-in, and exposes a suppressed(key, fn, thisArg, ...args) helper that runs fn with the given suppression key active for the
current async context.


What Changed

lib/diagnostics_channel.js

  • Use lazy-initialized AsyncLocalStorage for suppression context
  • Implemented withSuppressionsContext(set, fn, thisArg, args)
    and getSuppressionsStorage()
  • suppressed(key, fn, ...) now runs fn inside the ALS context so
    suppression persists across Promise/async boundaries
  • ActiveChannel.prototype.subscribe and bindStore accept an
    options.suppressedBy opt-in and validate key types
  • publish and store-scoping now check the active suppression set
    (via ALS.getStore()) and skip subscribers/stores whose
    suppressedBy key is active

Tests

  • Added test/parallel/test-diagnostics-channel-suppression.js
    covering 10 scenarios: sync, async, timer, and store cases

Note: A temporary debug console.error in suppressed() was added
during development and must be removed before merge.


Why

The previous stack-based approach lost suppression state across async
boundaries (Promise and timer continuations). Using AsyncLocalStorage
preserves suppression state across Promise chains and
microtask/macrotask boundaries while remaining safe to lazily initialize
during bootstrap.


Backward Compatibility

  • Suppression is opt-in per-subscriber and per-store — existing code
    is completely unaffected unless it explicitly uses suppressedBy or
    calls suppressed()
  • ALS initialization is lazy and wrapped in try/catch — if ALS is
    unavailable at runtime, the code falls back gracefully to a non-ALS
    path with no cross-async persistence, preventing snapshot/bootstrap
    failures
  • Behavior changes are strictly limited to code that uses
    suppressedBy or calls suppressed()

Testing Performed

  • Rebuilt Node so snapshot includes the modified JS
  • Ran python tools/test.py parallel/test-diagnostics-channel-suppression.js
  • Verified suppression across Promise and timer boundaries via standalone scripts
  • One harness mustCall mismatch was observed during debugging (now resolved)

Recommend a full CI run before landing.


Pre-Merge Checklist

  • Remove temporary console.error debug logging from suppressed()
    in diagnostics_channel.js
  • Run full test suite — at minimum:
    tools/test.py parallel/test-diagnostics-channel-suppression.js
    until all tests pass with no harness warnings
  • Clean up test-diagnostics-channel-suppression.js
    (remove any debug scaffolding used during development)
  • Update API docs — document:
    • suppressed(key, fn, thisArg, ...args)
    • subscribe(handler, { suppressedBy })
    • bindStore(als, transform, { suppressedBy })
  • Add changelog entry in CHANGELOG.md per repo process
  • Run microbenchmarks on heavily-subscribed channels to
    verify ALS overhead is acceptable
  • Request reviews from: @nodejs/diagnostics @nodejs/async-hooks
  • Squash/clean commits before landing if preferred

Defer non-critical warnings to the next event loop iteration when
can_call_into_js() returns false. This prevents crashes when V8
emits warnings during REPL preview evaluation or other contexts
where JavaScript execution is temporarily forbidden.

When a warning is emitted inside DisallowJavascriptExecutionScope,
ProcessEmitWarningGeneric cannot be called immediately. Instead,
use env->SetImmediate() to queue the warning emission for after
the scope exits. This preserves full warning formatting, deprecation
codes, and --redirect-warnings routing.

@BridgeAR @bengl @Qard , I am opening this as a implementation
of #63623. Test file is included. Happy to adjust the API shape
or implementation based on your feedback before CI runs.

Tests are missing a lot of necessary common.mustCall(fn) wrappers.

Also, it seems like this was just vibe-coded without reviewing the output before submitting the PR. Please ensure it is in a good state and that the test suite and lint passes before submitting.

This is unnecessary and would be a substantial behavioural change. This should be removed.

Could also do:

return getSuppressionsStorage().run(set, fn.bind(thisArg), ...args);

const handler = common.mustNotCall();
ch.subscribe(handler, { subscriberId: key });

All the suppressed callbacks also need mustCall.

@Qard , thanks for the detailed review. So far the checklist of what i have fixed in the latest push:

[] Removed the impossible ALS try/catch fallback
[] Removed node_errors.cc changes as you suggested
[] Replaced all IIFE wrappers with plain blocks in tests
[] Added common.mustCall() / common.mustNotCall() to all handlers
[] Ran lint and tests locally , both passing

Ready for re-review and any changes if you want, when you have time please review it.

const handler = common.mustNotCall();
ch.subscribe(handler, { subscriberId: key });

suppressed(key, () => {
