Instead of allocating these in a mixture of ways, we now always put
them on the malloc heap, and keep an intrusive linked list of them
that we can iterate for GC marking purposes.
This patch adds two macros to declare per-type allocators:
- JS_DECLARE_ALLOCATOR(TypeName)
- JS_DEFINE_ALLOCATOR(TypeName)
When used, they add a type-specific CellAllocator that the Heap will
delegate allocation requests to.
The result of this is that GC objects of the same type always end up
within the same HeapBlock, drastically reducing the ability to perform
type confusion attacks.
It also improves HeapBlock utilization, since each block now has cells
sized exactly to the type used within that block. (Previously we only
had a handful of block sizes available, and most GC allocations ended
up with a large amount of slack in their tails.)
There is a small performance hit from this, but I'm sure we can make
up for it elsewhere.
Note that the old size-based allocators still exist, and we fall back
to them for any type that doesn't have its own CellAllocator.
Stop worrying about tiny OOMs. Work towards #20449.
While going through these, I also changed the function signature in many
places where returning ThrowCompletionOr<T> is no longer necessary.
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.
A struct with three raw pointers to other GC'd types is a pretty big
liability, let's just turn this into a Cell itself.
This comes with the additional benefit of being able to capture it in
a lambda effortlessly, without having to create handles for individual
members.
