This change introduces HeapFunction, which is intended to be used as a
replacement for SafeFunction. The new type behaves like a regular
GC-allocated object, which means it needs to be visited from
visit_edges, and unlike SafeFunction, it does not create new roots for
captured parameters.

These cases were found with GCC's `-Wsuggest-final-{types,methods}`
warnings, which catch calls that could have been devirtualized had we
declared the functions `final` in the source.
To reproduce, Link Time Optimization needs to be enabled. The easiest
way to achieve this is to set the `CMAKE_INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION`
cache variable to `ON`. The `.incbin` directive in LibCompress' Brotli
decompressor might needs to be changed to an absolute path for this to
work.
This commit also removes a pair of unused virtual functions.
Cell::heap() and Cell::vm() needed to access member functions from
HeapBlock, and wanted to be inline, so they were moved to VM.h.
That approach will no longer work with VM.h not being included in every
file (starting from the next commit), so this commit fixes that circular
import issue by introducing secondary base classes to host the
references to Heap and VM, respectively.
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.
The goal here is to allow Cell::initialize to return a ThrowCompletion,
to handle OOM for example. Cell.h will then need to include Completion.h
which must include Value.h. This currently can't happen because Value.h
includes BigInt.h, which in turn includes Cell.h. So we would have an
include cycle.
This removes BigInt.h from Value.h, as it is forward-declarable (it is
only referred to with a reference or pointer). Then the Value overload
for Cell::Visitor::visit is moved to Cell.h, and missing BigInt.h
includes as peppered as needed.
Doing things in the destructor of a GC-allocated object isn't always
safe, in case it involves accessing other GC-allocated objects.
If they were already swept by GC, we'd be poking into freed memory.
This patch adds a separate finalization pass where GC calls finalize()
on every unmarked cell that's about to be deleted.
It's safe to access other GC objects in finalize(), even if they're
also unmarked.
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.
These are mostly minor mistakes I've encountered while working on the
removal of StringView(char const*). The usage of builder.put_string over
Format<FormatString>::format is preferrable as it will avoid the
indirection altogether when there's no formatting to be done. Similarly,
there is no need to do format(builder, "{}", number) when
builder.put_u64(number) works equally well.
Additionally a few Strings where only constant strings were used are
replaced with StringViews.
This helps make the overall codebase consistent. `class_name()` in
`Kernel` is always `StringView`, but not elsewhere.
Additionally, this results in the `strlen` (which needs to be done
when printing or other operations) always being computed at
compile-time.
This feature had bitrotted somewhat and would trigger errors because
PrimitiveStrings were "destroyed" but because of this mode they were not
removed from the string cache. Even fixing that case running test-js
with the options still failed in more places.
This isn't a complete conversion to ErrorOr<void>, but a good chunk.
The end goal here is to propagate buffer allocation failures to the
caller, and allow the use of TRY() with formatting functions.
This patch adds a `-z` option to js and test-js. When run in this mode,
garbage cells are never actually destroyed. We instead keep them around
in a special zombie state.
This allows us to validate that zombies don't get marked in future GC
scans (since there were not supposed to be any more references!) :^)
Cells get notified when they become a zombie (via did_become_zombie())
and this is used by WeakContainer cells to deregister themselves from
the heap.
Almost everything in LibJS includes Cell.h, don't force all code to
include AK/TypeCasts.h + AK/String.h. Instead include them where they
are actually used and required.
Previously, EnvironmentRecord was a JS::Object. This was done because
GlobalObject inherited from EnvironmentRecord. Now that this is no
longer the case, we can simplify things by making EnvironmentRecord
inherit from Cell directly.
This also removes the need for environment records to have a shape,
which was awkward. This will be removed in the following patch.
So far we only have two states: Live and Dead. In the future, we can
add additional states to support incremental sweeping and/or multi-
stage cell destruction.
