Some of these are allocated upon initialization of the intrinsics, and
some lazily, but in neither case the getters actually return a nullptr.
This saves us a whole bunch of pointer dereferences (as NonnullGCPtr has
an `operator T&()`), and also has the interesting side effect of forcing
us to explicitly use the FunctionObject& overload of call(), as passing
a NonnullGCPtr is ambigous - it could implicitly be turned into a Value
_or_ a FunctionObject& (so we have to dereference manually).
First, this adds an overload of PrimitiveString::create for StringView.
This overload will throw an OOM completion if creating a String fails.
This is not only a bit more convenient, but it also ensures at compile
time that all PrimitiveString::create(string_view) invocations will be
handled as String and OOM-aware.
Next, this wraps all invocations to PrimitiveString::create(string_view)
with MUST_OR_THROW_OOM.
A small PrimitiveString::create(DeprecatedFlyString) overload also had
to be added to disambiguate between the StringView and DeprecatedString
overloads.
Note that as of this commit, there aren't any such throwers, and the
call site in Heap::allocate will drop exceptions on the floor. This
commit only serves to change the declaration of the overrides, make sure
they return an empty value, and to propagate OOM errors frm their base
initialize invocations.
This constructor was easily confused with a copy constructor, and it was
possible to accidentally copy-construct Objects in at least one way that
we dicovered (via generic ThrowCompletionOr construction).
This patch adds a mandatory ConstructWithPrototypeTag parameter to the
constructor to disambiguate it.
Note that js_rope_string() has been folded into this, the old name was
misleading - it would not always create a rope string, only if both
sides are not empty strings. Use a three-argument create() overload
instead.
Intrinsics, i.e. mostly constructor and prototype objects, but also
things like empty and new object shape now live on a new heap-allocated
JS::Intrinsics object, thus completing the long journey of taking all
the magic away from the global object.
This represents the Realm's [[Intrinsics]] slot in the spec and matches
its existing [[GlobalObject]] / [[GlobalEnv]] slots in terms of
architecture.
In the majority of cases it should now be possibly to fully allocate a
regular object without the global object existing, and in fact that's
what we do now - the realm is allocated before the global object, and
the intrinsics between both :^)
This is needed so that the allocated NativeFunction receives the correct
realm, usually forwarded from the Object's initialize() function, rather
than using the current realm.
This is a continuation of the previous five commits.
A first big step into the direction of no longer having to pass a realm
(or currently, a global object) trough layers upon layers of AOs!
Unlike the create() APIs we can safely assume that this is only ever
called when a running execution context and therefore current realm
exists. If not, you can always manually allocate the Error and put it in
a Completion :^)
In the spec, throw exceptions implicitly use the current realm's
intrinsics as well: https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-throw-an-exception
This is a continuation of the previous commit.
Calling initialize() is the first thing that's done after allocating a
cell on the JS heap - and in the common case of allocating an object,
that's where properties are assigned and intrinsics occasionally
accessed.
Since those are supposed to live on the realm eventually, this is
another step into that direction.
No functional changes - we can still very easily get to the global
object via `Realm::global_object()`. This is in preparation of moving
the intrinsics to the realm and no longer having to pass a global
object when allocating any object.
In a few (now, and many more in subsequent commits) places we get a
realm using `GlobalObject::associated_realm()`, this is intended to be
temporary. For example, create() functions will later receive the same
treatment and are passed a realm instead of a global object.
This is an editorial change in the ECMA-262 spec. See:
https://github.com/tc39/ecma262/commit/a90670d5
This also adds missing spec comments to the following prototypes which
were affected by this change:
Atomics.load
Atomics.store
%TypedArray%.prototype.slice
%TypedArray%.prototype.subarray
This ensures that comparison between TypedArray names will be
essentially free (just a pointer comparison), which will allow us to
efficiently implement specification steps like:
"24. If srcType is the same as targetType, then"
efficiently.
The old versions were renamed to JS_DECLARE_OLD_NATIVE_FUNCTION and
JS_DEFINE_OLD_NATIVE_FUNCTION, and will be eventually removed once all
native functions were converted to the new format.
