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.
Here's a reasonably faithful implementation of ECMAScript 2021 18.2.5.
Some corner cases are not covered, I've left them as FIXME's in the
included unit test.
Also I had to tweak JS::Value::to_i32() to always convert infinity to
zero, which is in accordance with ToInt32 AFAICT.
The current implementation is not entirely correct yet. Two classes have
been added:
- TypedArrayConstructor, which the various typed array constructors now
inherit from. Calling or constructing this class (from JS, that is)
directly is not possible, we might want to move this abstract class
functionality to NativeFunction at a later point.
- TypedArrayPrototype, which the various typed array prototypes now have
as their own prototype. This will be the place where most of the
functionality is being shared.
Relevant parts from the spec:
22.2.1 The %TypedArray% Intrinsic Object
The %TypedArray% intrinsic object:
- is a constructor function object that all of the TypedArray
constructor objects inherit from.
- along with its corresponding prototype object, provides common
properties that are inherited by all TypedArray constructors and their
instances.
22.2.2 Properties of the %TypedArray% Intrinsic Object
The %TypedArray% intrinsic object:
- has a [[Prototype]] internal slot whose value is %Function.prototype%.
22.2.2.3 %TypedArray%.prototype
The initial value of %TypedArray%.prototype is the %TypedArray%
prototype object.
22.2.6 Properties of the TypedArray Constructors
Each TypedArray constructor:
- has a [[Prototype]] internal slot whose value is %TypedArray%.
22.2.6.2 TypedArray.prototype
The initial value of TypedArray.prototype is the corresponding
TypedArray prototype intrinsic object (22.2.7).
22.2.7 Properties of the TypedArray Prototype Objects
Each TypedArray prototype object:
- has a [[Prototype]] internal slot whose value is %TypedArray.prototype%.
22.2.7.2 TypedArray.prototype.constructor
The initial value of a TypedArray.prototype.constructor is the
corresponding %TypedArray% intrinsic object.
This patch adds six of the standard type arrays and tries to share as
much code as possible:
- Uint8Array
- Uint16Array
- Uint32Array
- Int8Array
- Int16Array
- Int32Array
Proxy is an "exotic object" and doesn't have its own prototype. Use the
regular object prototype instead, but most stuff is happening on the
target object anyway. :^)
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. :^)
As the global object is constructed and initialized in a different way
than most other objects we were not setting its prototype! This made
things like "globalThis.toString()" fail unexpectedly.
Instead of performing a prototype transition for every new object we
create via {}, prebake the object returned by Object::create_empty()
with a shape with ObjectPrototype as the prototype.
We also prebake the shape for the object assigned to the "prototype"
property of new ScriptFunction objects, since those are extremely
common and that code broke from this change anyway.
This avoid a large number of transitions and is a small speed-up on
test-js.
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.
There's no point in trying to achieve shape sharing for global objects,
so we can simply make the shape unique from the start and avoid making
a transition chain.
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.
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 :^)
Taking a big step towards a world of multiple global object, this patch
adds a new JS::VM object that houses the JS::Heap.
This means that the Heap moves out of Interpreter, and the same Heap
can now be used by multiple Interpreters, and can also outlive them.
The VM keeps a stack of Interpreter pointers. We push/pop on this
stack when entering/exiting execution with a given Interpreter.
This allows us to make this change without disturbing too much of
the existing code.
There is still a 1-to-1 relationship between Interpreter and the
global object. This will change in the future.
Ultimately, the goal here is to make Interpreter a transient object
that only needs to exist while you execute some code. Getting there
will take a lot more work though. :^)
Note that in LibWeb, the global JS::VM is called main_thread_vm(),
to distinguish it from future worker VM's.
With the addition of symbol keys, work can now be done on starting to
implement the well-known symbol functionality. The most important of
these well-known symbols is by far Symbol.iterator.
This patch adds IteratorPrototype, as well as ArrayIterator and
ArrayIteratorPrototype. In the future, sometime after StringIterator has
also been added, this will allow us to use Symbol.iterator directly in
for..of loops, enabling the use of custom iterator objects. Also makes
adding iterator support to native objects much easier (as will have to
be done for Map and Set, when they get added).
Divide the Object constructor into three variants:
- The regular one (takes an Object& prototype)
- One for use by GlobalObject
- One for use by objects without a prototype (e.g ObjectPrototype)
To make sure that everything is set up correctly in objects before we
start adding properties to them, we split cell allocation into 3 steps:
1. Allocate a cell of appropriate size from the Heap
2. Call the C++ constructor on the cell
3. Call initialize() on the constructed object
The job of initialize() is to define all the initial properties.
Doing it in a second pass guarantees that the Object has a valid Shape
and can find its own GlobalObject.
More work towards supporting multiple global objects. Native C++ code
now get a GlobalObject& and don't have to ask the Interpreter for it.
I've added macros for declaring and defining native callbacks since
this was pretty tedious and this makes it easier next time we want to
change any of these signatures.
We need to move towards supporting multiple global objects, which will
be a large refactoring. To keep it manageable, let's do it in steps,
starting with giving Object a way to find the GlobalObject it lives
inside by asking its Shape for it.
This adds regex parsing/lexing, as well as a relatively empty
RegExpObject. The purpose of this patch is to allow the engine to not
get hung up on parsing regexes. This will aid in finding new syntax
errors (say, from google or twitter) without having to replace all of
their regexes first!
Includes all traps except the following: [[Call]], [[Construct]],
[[OwnPropertyKeys]].
An important implication of this commit is that any call to any virtual
Object method has the potential to throw an exception. These methods
were not checked in this commit -- a future commit will have to protect
these various method calls throughout the codebase.
Previously, the Object class had many different types of functions for
each action. For example: get_by_index, get(PropertyName),
get(FlyString). This is a bit verbose, so these methods have been
shortened to simply use the PropertyName structure. The methods then
internally call _by_index if necessary. Note that the _by_index
have been made private to enforce this change.
Secondly, a clear distinction has been made between "putting" and
"defining" an object property. "Putting" should mean modifying a
(potentially) already existing property. This is akin to doing "a.b =
'foo'".
This implies two things about put operations:
- They will search the prototype chain for setters and call them, if
necessary.
- If no property exists with a particular key, the put operation
should create a new property with the default attributes
(configurable, writable, and enumerable).
In contrast, "defining" a property should completely overwrite any
existing value without calling setters (if that property is
configurable, of course).
Thus, all of the many JS objects have had any "put" calls changed to
"define_property" calls. Additionally, "put_native_function" and
"put_native_property" have had their "put" replaced with "define".
Finally, "put_own_property" has been made private, as all necessary
functionality should be exposed with the put and define_property
methods.
This saves us both a bit of time and accuracy, as Serenity's strtod()
still is a little bit off sometimes - and stringifying the result and
parsing it again just increases that offset.
This patch is unfortunately rather large and might make some things feel
bloated, but it is necessary to fix a few flaws in LibJS, primarily
blindly coercing values to numbers without exception checks - i.e.
interpreter.argument(0).to_i32(); // can fail!!!
Some examples where the interpreter would actually crash:
var o = { toString: () => { throw Error() } };
+o;
o - 1;
"foo".charAt(o);
"bar".repeat(o);
To fix this, we now have the following...
to_double(Interpreter&)
to_i32()
to_i32(Interpreter&)
to_size_t()
to_size_t(Interpreter&)
...and a whole lot of exception checking.
There's intentionally no to_double(), use as_double() directly instead.
This way we still can use these convenient utility functions but don't
need to check for exceptions if we are sure the value already is a
number.
Fixes#2267.
This commit adds the following classes: SymbolObject, SymbolConstructor,
SymbolPrototype, and Symbol. This commit does not introduce any
new functionality to the Object class, so they cannot be used as
property keys in objects.
Added the ability to include a u8 attributes parameter with all of the
various put methods in the Object class. They can be omitted, in which
case it defaults to "Writable | Enumerable | Configurable", just like
before this commit.
All of the attribute values for each property were gathered from
SpiderMonkey in the Firefox console. Some properties (e.g. all of the
canvas element properties) have undefined property descriptors... not
quite sure what that means. Those were left as the default specified
above.
Everyone who constructs an Object must now pass a prototype object when
applicable. There's still a fair amount of code that passes something
fetched from the Interpreter, but this brings us closer to being able
to detach prototypes from Interpreter eventually.
