When scanning for potential heap pointers during conservative GC,
we look for any value that is an address somewhere inside a heap cell.
However, we were failing to account for the slack at the end of a
block (which occurs whenever the block storage size isn't an exact
multiple of the cell size.) Pointers inside the trailing slack were
misidentified as pointers into "last_cell+1".
Instead of skipping over them, we would treat this garbage data as a
live cell and try to mark it. I believe this is the test-js crash that
has been terrorizing Travis for a while. :^)
Editors now communicate with the c++ language server when openning and
editing c++ source files, and go through the language server to get
autocomplete suggestions.
The language server keeps track of the content of currently edited
files by receiving updates about edit actions.
Also, C++ autocompletion is no longer tied to HackStudio itself and
moved to be part of the language server.
Each JS global object has its own "console", so it makes more sense to
store it in GlobalObject.
We'll need some smartness later to bundle up console messages from all
the different frames that make up a page later, but this works for now.
This is the origin timestamp of the same monotonic clock used for the
performance.now() timestamp.
I got a little confused while implementing this, since the numbers are
very low. That's because it uses the CLOCK_MONOTONIC system clock,
which we start counting from 0 at boot. :^)
This patch introduces the HighResolutionTime namespace which is home to
the Performance object (exposed via window.performance)
performance.now() is currently the only function, and it returns the
number of milliseconds since the window object was constructed. :^)
More work on decoupling the general runtime from Interpreter. The goal
is becoming clearer. Interpreter should be one possible way to execute
code inside a VM. In the future we might have other ways :^)
Okay, my vision here is improving. Interpreter should be a thing that
executes an AST. The scope stack is irrelevant to the VM proper,
so we can move that to the Interpreter. Same with execute_statement().
This patch moves the exception state, call stack and scope stack from
Interpreter to VM. I'm doing this to help myself discover what the
split between Interpreter and VM should be, by shuffling things around
and seeing what falls where.
With these changes, we no longer have a persistent lexical environment
for the current global object on the Interpreter's call stack. Instead,
we push/pop that environment on Interpreter::run() enter/exit.
Since it should only be used to find the global "this", and not for
variable storage (that goes directly into the global object instead!),
I had to insert some short-circuiting when walking the environment
parent chain during variable lookup.
Note that this is a "stepping stone" commit, not a final design.
