Since get() returns an empty Optional if the index is not present, we
can combine these two into a single get() operation and save the cost of
a virtual call.
Instead of looking these up in the VM execution context stack whenever
we need them, we now just cache them in the interpreter when entering
a new call frame.
The exisiting fast path only permits for valid i32 values.
On https://cyxx.github.io/another_js, this eliminates the runtime of
typed_array_set_element, and reduces the runtime of put_by_value from
11.1% to 7.7%.
This patch moves us away from the accumulator-based bytecode format to
one with explicit source and destination registers.
The new format has multiple benefits:
- ~25% faster on the Kraken and Octane benchmarks :^)
- Fewer instructions to accomplish the same thing
- Much easier for humans to read(!)
Because this change requires a fundamental shift in how bytecode is
generated, it is quite comprehensive.
Main implementation mechanism: generate_bytecode() virtual function now
takes an optional "preferred dst" operand, which allows callers to
communicate when they have an operand that would be optimal for the
result to go into. It also returns an optional "actual dst" operand,
which is where the completion value (if any) of the AST node is stored
after the node has "executed".
One thing of note that's new: because instructions can now take locals
as operands, this means we got rid of the GetLocal instruction.
A side-effect of that is we have to think about the temporal deadzone
(TDZ) a bit differently for locals (GetLocal would previously check
for empty values and interpret that as a TDZ access and throw).
We now insert special ThrowIfTDZ instructions in places where a local
access may be in the TDZ, to maintain the correct behavior.
There are a number of progressions and regressions from this test:
A number of async generator tests have been accidentally fixed while
converting the implementation to the new bytecode format. It didn't
seem useful to preserve bugs in the original code when converting it.
Some "does eval() return the correct completion value" tests have
regressed, in particular ones related to propagating the appropriate
completion after control flow statements like continue and break.
These are all fairly obscure issues, and I believe we can continue
working on them separately.
The net test262 result is a progression though. :^)
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

This patch makes IteratorRecord an Object. Although it's not exposed to
author code, this does allow us to store it in a VM register.
Now that we can store it in a VM register, we don't need to convert it
back and forth between IteratorRecord and Object when accessing it from
bytecode.
The big win here is avoiding 3 [[Get]] accesses on every iteration step
of for..of loops. There are also a bunch of smaller efficiencies gained.
20% speed-up on this microbenchmark:
function go(a) {
for (const p of a) {
}
}
const a = [];
a.length = 1_000_000;
go(a);
(Instead of MarkedVector<Value>.) This is a step towards not storing
argument lists in MarkedVector<Value> at all. Note that they still end
up in MarkedVectors since that's what ExecutionContext has.
This patch makes it possible for JS::Object::internal_set() to populate
a CacheablePropertyMetadata, and uses this to implement a basic
monomorphic cache for the most common form of property write access.
There are a lot of native C++ functions that will be used by both the
bytecode interpreter and jitted code. Let's put them in their own file
instead of having them in Interpreter.cpp.
