node:fs: calling writeFileSync/appendFileSync with negative 0 causes an assertion failure

Version

v26.8.1

Platform

Linux nixdesk 6.18.48 #1-NixOS SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Aug 28 06:22:54 UTC 2026 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Subsystem

fs

What steps will reproduce the bug?

require("node:fs").writeFileSync(-0, "")

or

require("node:fs").appendFileSync(-0, "")

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

it always happens on my machine. i have not tried on any other computer or os

What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?

for it to do the same thing as positive zero i assume

What do you see instead?

❯ echo 'require("node:fs").writeFileSync(-0, "")' | node -

  #  node[264400]: void node::fs::WriteFileUtf8(const v8::FunctionCallbackInfo<v8::Value>&) at ../../src/node_file.cc:2764
  #  Assertion failed: (*path) != nullptr

No response

Inizia da src/node_file.cc, intorno all’asserzione WriteFileUtf8 segnalata alla riga 2764, usando le riproduzioni writeFileSync(-0, "") e appendFileSync(-0, ""). Traccia il modo in cui le API fs gestiscono l’argomento del percorso e aggiungi la copertura per lo zero negativo; il lavoro è completato quando nessuna delle due chiamate interrompe l’esecuzione ed entrambe si comportano come lo zero positivo.
