This allows us to remove the BoundFunction::m_name field, which we
were initializing with a formatted FlyString on every function binding,
despite never using it for anything.
We were doing way too much computation every time an ESFO was
instantiated. This was particularly sad, since the results of these
computations were identical every time!
This patch adds a new SharedFunctionInstanceData object that gets
shared between all instances of an ESFO instantiated from some kind of
AST FunctionNode.
~5% speedup on Speedometer 2.1 :^)
The special empty value (that we use for array holes, Optional<Value>
when empty and a few other other placeholder/sentinel tasks) still
exists, but you now create one via JS::js_special_empty_value() and
check for it with Value::is_special_empty_value().
The main idea here is to make it very unlikely to accidentally create an
unexpected special empty value.
If a class field initializer is just a simple literal, we can skip
creating (and calling) a wrapper function for it entirely.
1.44x speedup on JetStream3/raytrace-private-class-fields.js
1.53x speedup on JetStream3/raytrace-public-class-fields.js
Instead of making a copy of the Vector<FunctionParameter> from the AST
every time we instantiate an ECMAScriptFunctionObject, we now keep the
parameters in a ref-counted FunctionParameters object.
This reduces memory usage, and also allows us to cache the bytecode
executables for default parameter expressions without recompiling them
for every instantiation. :^)
Resulting in a massive rename across almost everywhere! Alongside the
namespace change, we now have the following names:
* JS::NonnullGCPtr -> GC::Ref
* JS::GCPtr -> GC::Ptr
* JS::HeapFunction -> GC::Function
* JS::CellImpl -> GC::Cell
* JS::Handle -> GC::Root
This fixes an issue where a badly-timed garbage collection could swallow
a static field initializer.
Caught by running test262 in GC-on-every-allocation mode.
...and don't let them leak out of their evaluation contexts.
Also keep the exceptions separate from the actual values.
This greatly reduces the number of assertions hit while entering random
data into a sheet.
This was used for a feature where you could pass a vector of arguments
to enter_scope(). Since that way of passing arguments was not GC-aware
(as vectors use C++ heap storage), let's avoid using it and make sure
everything that needs to stay alive is either on the stack or in traced
storage instead.
This changes the remaining uses of the following functions across LibJS:
- String::format() => String::formatted()
- dbg() => dbgln()
- printf() => out(), outln()
- fprintf() => warnln()
I also removed the relevant 'LogStream& operator<<' overloads as they're
not needed anymore.
with statements evaluate an expression and put the result of it at the
"front" of the scope chain. This is implemented by creating a WithScope
object and placing it in front of the VM's current call frame's scope.
Both GlobalObject and LexicalEnvironment now inherit from ScopeObject,
and the VM's call frames point to a ScopeObject chain rather than just
a LexicalEnvironment chain.
This gives us much more flexibility to implement things like "with",
and also unifies some of the code paths that previously required
special handling of the global object.
There's a bunch of more cleanup that can be done in the wake of this
change, and there might be some oversights in the handling of the
"super" keyword, but this generally seems like a good architectural
improvement. :^)
This adds a new MetaProperty AST node which will be used for
'new.target' and 'import.meta' meta properties. The parser now
distinguishes between "in function context" and "in arrow function
context" (which is required for this).
When encountering TokenType::New we will attempt to parse it as meta
property and resort to regular new expression parsing if that fails,
much like the parsing of labelled statements.
Otherwise we crash the interpreter when an exception is thrown during
evaluation of the while or do/while test expression - which is easily
caused by a ReferenceError - e.g.:
while (someUndefinedVariable) {
// ...
}
Roughly 7% of test-js runtime was spent creating FlyStrings from string
literals. This patch frontloads that work and caches all the commonly
used names in LibJS on a CommonPropertyNames struct that hangs off VM.
Previously, when a loop detected an unwind of type ScopeType::Function
(which means a return statement was executed inside of the loop), it
would just return undefined. This set the VM's last_value to undefined,
when it should have been the returned value. This patch makes all loop
statements return the appropriate value in the above case.
Since blocks can't be strict by themselves, it makes no sense for them
to store whether or not they are strict. Strict-ness is now stored in
the Program and FunctionNode ASTNodes. Fixes issue #3641
