A native addon inside a virtual file system could not be require()d: dlopen() and LoadLibrary() open a shared object by path, and a VFS path has no inode for them to open. Read the addon's bytes from the VFS and load them from a private, self-cleaning image instead, using the smallest on-disk footprint each platform allows: on Linux an anonymous memfd loaded through /proc/self/fd, so the bytes never reach the file system; on other POSIX platforms a file in a 0700 mkdtemp() directory, unlinked right after loading, with the mapping keeping it alive; on Windows a temp file opened FILE_FLAG_DELETE_ON_CLOSE whose handle is held until exit. This is internal. process.dlopen() keeps its documented (module, filename[, flags]) signature and ignores anything further; the bytes are passed to a dlopenBinary() reachable only through the process_methods binding, which the VFS hook calls for VFS paths. Addons on the real file system are untouched and load directly.

Tests for networking related modules may also be present in other directories, but those tests do not make outbound connections. ↩︎
-
All tests inside of this directory are expected to fail. If a test doesn't fail on certain platforms, those should be skipped via
known_issues.status. ↩︎ -
The tests are for the logic in
lib/internal/main/prof_process.jsandlib/internal/v8_prof_polyfill.js. The tests confirm that the profile processor packages the correct set of scripts from V8 and introduces the correct platform specific logic. ↩︎
