If a function has the following properties:
- uses only local variables and registers
- does not use `this`
- does not use `new.target`
- does not use `super`
- does not use direct eval() calls
then it is possible to entirely skip function environment allocation
because it will never be used
This change adds gathering of information whether a function needs to
access `this` from environment and updates `prepare_for_ordinary_call()`
to skip allocation when possible.
For now, this optimisation is too aggressively blocked; e.g. if `this`
is used in a function scope, then all functions in outer scopes have to
allocate an environment. It could be improved in the future, although
this implementation already allows skipping >80% of environment
allocations on Discord, GitHub and Twitter.
This does two things:
* Clear exceptions when transferring control out of a finalizer
Otherwise they would resurface at the end of the next finalizer
(see test the new test case), or at the end of a function
* Pop one scheduled jump when transferring control out of a finalizer
This removes one old FIXME
Before this change both ExecutionContext and CallFrame were created
before executing function/module/script with a couple exceptions:
- executable created for default function argument evaluation has to
run in function's execution context.
- `execute_ast_node()` where executable compiled for ASTNode has to be
executed in running execution context.
This change moves all members previously owned by CallFrame into
ExecutionContext, and makes two exceptions where an executable that does
not have a corresponding execution context saves and restores registers
before running.
Now, all execution state lives in a single entity, which makes it a bit
easier to reason about and opens opportunities for optimizations, such
as moving registers and local variables into a single array.
For this case to work correctly in the current bytecode world:
func(a, a++)
We have to put the function arguments in temporaries instead of allowing
the postfix increment to modify `a` in place.
This fixes a problem where jQuery.each() would skip over items.
The following command was used to clang-format these files:
clang-format-18 -i $(find . \
-not \( -path "./\.*" -prune \) \
-not \( -path "./Base/*" -prune \) \
-not \( -path "./Build/*" -prune \) \
-not \( -path "./Toolchain/*" -prune \) \
-not \( -path "./Ports/*" -prune \) \
-type f -name "*.cpp" -o -name "*.mm" -o -name "*.h")
There are a couple of weird cases where clang-format now thinks that a
pointer access in an initializer list, e.g. `m_member(ptr->foo)`, is a
lambda return statement, and it puts spaces around the `->`.
This allows to skip iterating through all allocated blocks in
`find_min_and_max_block_addresses()`.
With this change `collect_garbage()` in profiles of Discord goes down
from 17% to 8%.
There's no need to capture things as Handle when using HeapFunction.
In this case, it was even creating a strong reference cycle, which ended
up leaking.
currently crashes with an assertion failure in `String::repeated` if
malloc can't serve a `count * input_size` sized request, so add
`String::repeated_with_error` to propagate the error.
These changes are compatible with clang-format 16 and will be mandatory
when we eventually bump clang-format version. So, since there are no
real downsides, let's commit them now.
When running with --log-all-js-exceptions, we will print the message
and backtrace for every single JS exception that is thrown, not just
the ones nobody caught.
This can sometimes be very helpful in debugging sites that swallow
important exceptions.
This fixes the relevant warnings when running LibJSGCVerifier. Note that
the analysis is only performed over LibJS-adjacent code, but could be
performed over the entire codebase. That will have to wait for a future
commit.
This lets us avoid false positives when a GCPtr-wrapped member is only
a weak reference which is automatically updated by the GC when the
member's gc state is updated.
This avoids the potential for unwanted implicit conversions to bool.
It doesn't prevent if (m_ptr) checks though, as that invokes an explicit
conversion to bool. This is how std::unique_ptr and std::optional work.
When a PutById / PutByValue bytecode operation results in accessing a
nullish object, we now include the name of the property and the object
being accessed in the exception message (if available). This should make
it easier to debug live websites.
For example, the following errors would all previously produce a generic
error message of "ToObject on null or undefined":
> foo = null
> foo.bar = 1
Uncaught exception:
[TypeError] Cannot access property "bar" on null object "foo"
at <unknown>
> foo = { bar: undefined }
> foo.bar.baz = 1
Uncaught exception:
[TypeError] Cannot access property "baz" on undefined object "foo.bar"
at <unknown>
Note we certainly don't capture all possible nullish property write
accesses here. This just covers cases I've seen most on live websites;
we can cover more cases as they arise.
