The fix for this was to port the "don't create unnecessary FooObject
for property access on primitives" optimization from Reference,
which also brings us the correct behavior.
Since we no longer need to create or leave var environments directly
in bytecode, we can streamline the two instructions by making them
always operate on the lexical environment.
Instead of implementing this AO in bytecode, we now have an instruction
for it that simply invokes the C++ implementation.
This allows us to simplify Bytecode::Generator quite a bit by removing
all the variable scope tracking.
We use generators in bytecode to approximate async functions, but the
code generated by AwaitExpressions did not have the value processing
paths that Yield requires, eg the `generator.throw()` path, which is
used by AsyncFunctionDriverWrapper to signal Promise rejections.
This uses a newly added instruction `ScheduleJump`
This instruction tells the finally proceeding it, that instead of
jumping to it's next block it should jump to the designated block.
This includes an Error::create overload to create an Error from a UTF-8
StringView. If creating a String from that view fails, the factory will
return an OOM InternalError instead. VM::throw_completion can also make
use of this overload via its perfect forwarding.
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 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.
Three standalone Cell creation functions remain in the JS namespace:
- js_bigint()
- js_string()
- js_symbol()
All of them are leftovers from early iterations when LibJS still took
inspiration from JSC, which itself has jsString(). Nowadays, we pretty
much exclusively use static create() functions to construct types
allocated on the JS heap, and there's no reason to not do the same for
these.
Also change the return type from BigInt* to NonnullGCPtr<BigInt> while
we're here.
This is patch 1/3, replacement of js_string() and js_symbol() follow.
This makes more sense as an Object method rather than living within the
VM class for no good reason. Most of the other 7.3.xx AOs already work
the same way.
Also add spec comments while we're here.
This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
This gives us better debug output when analysing calls to `undefined`
and also fixes multiple test-js cases expecting an
`(evaluated from $Expression)` in the error message.
This also refactors out the generation of that string, to avoid code
duplication with the AST interpreter.
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 :^)
