A module that failed to build is emitted as a `throw` (or, for an asset or a wasm binary, as the message itself), and that message ends in the stack of the build that raised it: absolute paths, and webpack's own files at the lines they sat on. So the output names the machine that built it, and moves whenever an unrelated edit shifts a line in `lib/`. The stack stays — without it nothing says where a value that is not an error came from — but it is written relative to the context, and a position is kept only where a second build names the same one: not in webpack's own sources, a hook's generated function or the engine. What reads such a failure has to be handed an error, and three places were not: a factory tap that failed with a string reported an internal `TypeError` instead of the value, a plugin hook's became an empty message, and a chunk render's a null one. `toError` names the value instead, and the boundaries that already wrapped one now share it.
Two boundaries the first pass missed, both found in review. The css a failed module generates was the one branch still emitting `error.message` as it stood, so a `.css` asset kept the absolute path its stack named while every other type had lost it. And `markModuleAsErrored` took whatever it was handed: a `beforeSnapshot` tap failing with a string set `module.error` to that string, and the build died on `error.module = module` with a `TypeError` naming neither the module nor what the tap said. It wraps now, as the other boundaries do, so the value is reported and the build carries on.
Codecov named both: a sync WebAssembly module that fails to build, whose asset is the message, and a generator from before `generateError`, where `NormalModule` writes the throw itself. Each case asserts the frame it emits is the loader's own, written relative to the context.

The bun and node 10 jobs failed, and each named something the first pass only got right on a current v8. Bun writes a frame's file as a `file://` URL, so nothing shortened it and the absolute path stood; its engine frames read `native` rather than `node:`, so they kept a position that moves; and `captureStackTrace` with a boundary elides every frame there, which left the message with no stack at all. The frames this file adds are now cut by name, the file is read through `fileUrlToPath`, and `native` joins the engine's own. The assertions went with it: each one pinned how v8 spells a frame, down to the function name it infers, which node 10 and bun both spell otherwise. They state what the change owes instead — the project's own file with its position, webpack's own without one, and no absolute path.
The case drove the generator without reading what it wrote, and its matcher took any path where webpack shortens the one it names. It reads the emitted asset back now: the loader's own frame, relative, with its position, and no absolute path on the stack.

Summary
A module that failed to build is emitted as a
throw(or, for an asset or a wasm binary, as the message itself), and that message ends in the stack of the build that raised it — absolute paths, and webpack's own files at the lines they sat on — so the output names the machine that built it and moves whenever an unrelated edit shifts a line inlib/(which is what theCode Sizejob reported on #22116). The stack stays, because without it nothing says where a value that is not an error came from, but it is written relative to the context and keeps a position only where a second build names the same one.Auditing what reads such a failure turned up three boundaries handed a value that is not an error: a factory tap failing with a string reported an internal
TypeErrorfromModuleNotFoundErrorinstead of the value, a plugin hook's became an empty message, and a chunk render's anullone.toErrornames the value instead, and the boundaries that already wrapped one now share it.What kind of change does this PR introduce?
fix
Did you add tests for your changes?
Yes —
test/configCases/errors/factorize-non-error/(red without the fix, with that exactTypeError), assertions intest/configCases/errors/module-parse-error/index.jsandtest/configCases/asset-modules/process-result-non-error/index.js, plustest/ErrorHelpers.unittest.js,test/Generator.unittest.jsand a case intest/Compiler.test.jsfor the hook boundary.Does this PR introduce a breaking change?
No.
Generator.throwBuildErrorCodetakes the request shortener as an optional third argument, so existing callers are unaffected.If relevant, what needs to be documented once your changes are merged or what have you already documented?
