Resulting in a massive rename across almost everywhere! Alongside the
namespace change, we now have the following names:
* JS::NonnullGCPtr -> GC::Ref
* JS::GCPtr -> GC::Ptr
* JS::HeapFunction -> GC::Function
* JS::CellImpl -> GC::Cell
* JS::Handle -> GC::Root
Roughly 7% of test-js runtime was spent creating FlyStrings from string
literals. This patch frontloads that work and caches all the commonly
used names in LibJS on a CommonPropertyNames struct that hangs off VM.
More work on decoupling the general runtime from Interpreter. The goal
is becoming clearer. Interpreter should be one possible way to execute
code inside a VM. In the future we might have other ways :^)
To make sure that everything is set up correctly in objects before we
start adding properties to them, we split cell allocation into 3 steps:
1. Allocate a cell of appropriate size from the Heap
2. Call the C++ constructor on the cell
3. Call initialize() on the constructed object
The job of initialize() is to define all the initial properties.
Doing it in a second pass guarantees that the Object has a valid Shape
and can find its own GlobalObject.
More work towards supporting multiple global objects. Native C++ code
now get a GlobalObject& and don't have to ask the Interpreter for it.
I've added macros for declaring and defining native callbacks since
this was pretty tedious and this makes it easier next time we want to
change any of these signatures.
Objects should get the GlobalObject from themselves instead. However,
it's not yet available during construction so this only switches code
that happens after construction.
To support multiple global objects, Interpreter needs to stop holding
on to "the" global object and let each object graph own their global.
Previously, the Object class had many different types of functions for
each action. For example: get_by_index, get(PropertyName),
get(FlyString). This is a bit verbose, so these methods have been
shortened to simply use the PropertyName structure. The methods then
internally call _by_index if necessary. Note that the _by_index
have been made private to enforce this change.
Secondly, a clear distinction has been made between "putting" and
"defining" an object property. "Putting" should mean modifying a
(potentially) already existing property. This is akin to doing "a.b =
'foo'".
This implies two things about put operations:
- They will search the prototype chain for setters and call them, if
necessary.
- If no property exists with a particular key, the put operation
should create a new property with the default attributes
(configurable, writable, and enumerable).
In contrast, "defining" a property should completely overwrite any
existing value without calling setters (if that property is
configurable, of course).
Thus, all of the many JS objects have had any "put" calls changed to
"define_property" calls. Additionally, "put_native_function" and
"put_native_property" have had their "put" replaced with "define".
Finally, "put_own_property" has been made private, as all necessary
functionality should be exposed with the put and define_property
methods.
This patch is unfortunately rather large and might make some things feel
bloated, but it is necessary to fix a few flaws in LibJS, primarily
blindly coercing values to numbers without exception checks - i.e.
interpreter.argument(0).to_i32(); // can fail!!!
Some examples where the interpreter would actually crash:
var o = { toString: () => { throw Error() } };
+o;
o - 1;
"foo".charAt(o);
"bar".repeat(o);
To fix this, we now have the following...
to_double(Interpreter&)
to_i32()
to_i32(Interpreter&)
to_size_t()
to_size_t(Interpreter&)
...and a whole lot of exception checking.
There's intentionally no to_double(), use as_double() directly instead.
This way we still can use these convenient utility functions but don't
need to check for exceptions if we are sure the value already is a
number.
Fixes#2267.
Added the ability to include a u8 attributes parameter with all of the
various put methods in the Object class. They can be omitted, in which
case it defaults to "Writable | Enumerable | Configurable", just like
before this commit.
All of the attribute values for each property were gathered from
SpiderMonkey in the Firefox console. Some properties (e.g. all of the
canvas element properties) have undefined property descriptors... not
quite sure what that means. Those were left as the default specified
above.
The output of FunctionPrototype::to_string is now more in line
with the output in Firefox. The builtin constructors have been
extended to include their function name in the output.
