Description

Link to the code that reproduces this issue

https://github.com/WooWan/yarn-pnp-sourcemap-repro/tree/main

To Reproduce
  1. Start the application in development (yarn dev)
  2. Open Chrome DevTools → Sources tab
  3. Look for next/dist/client/components/app-router.js
  4. Instead of seeing original .ts source files, the bundled .js files are shown
Current vs. Expected behavior

Current: In Yarn PnP mode, DevTools shows .js files instead of original .ts sources for Next.js internal runti
+me files (next/dist/client/, next/dist/shared/lib/, next/dist/pages/). inputSourceMap is not passed to the SWC
+ loader, so source map chaining is broken.

Expected: DevTools should show .ts source files, same as non-PnP mode.

Research direction

Start with the linked yarn-pnp-sourcemap-repro repository and reproduce the problem with yarn dev, then inspect next/dist/client/components/app-router.js in Chrome DevTools. Trace the Webpack/SWC source-map handling for Next.js internal runtime files and verify that done means DevTools shows the original .ts sources in Yarn PnP mode, matching non-PnP behavior.
