Instead of returning HeapBlock memory to the kernel (or a non-type
specific shared cache), we now keep a BlockAllocator per CellAllocator
and implement "deallocation" by basically informing the kernel that we
don't need the physical memory right now.
This is done with MADV_FREE or MADV_DONTNEED if available, but for other
platforms (including SerenityOS) we munmap and then re-mmap the memory
to achieve the same effect. It's definitely clunky, so I've added a
FIXME about implementing the madvise options on SerenityOS too.
The important outcome of this change is that GC types that use a
type-specific allocator become immune to use-after-free type confusion
attacks, since their virtual addresses will only ever be re-used for
the same exact type again and again.
Fixes#22274
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 commit is auto-generated:

$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
Previously these handlers duplicated code and used formats that
were different from the one Error.prototype.stack uses.
Now they use the same Error::stack_string function, which accepts
a new parameter for compacting stack traces with repeating frames.
If we invoke the exit native function from within the exit builtin, the
native call will then invoke global destructors. This ultimately ends up
deleting the JS::NativeFunction that defines the exit builtin, thus we
try to delete the AK::Function held inside the NativeFunction while that
AK::Function is executing. This is explicitly forbidden by AK::Function.
Instead, simply set a flag to exit the REPL after the builtin executes.
These functions all have a very common case that can be dealt with a
very simple inline check, often avoiding the need to call an out-of-line
function. This patch moves the common case to inline functions in a new
ValueInlines.h header (necessary due to header dependency issues..)
8% speed-up on the entire Kraken benchmark :^)
This works by adding source start/end offset to every bytecode
instruction. In the future we can make this more efficient by keeping
a map of bytecode ranges to source ranges in the Executable instead,
but let's just get traces working first.

Since Core::Object properties are really only used by GML now that the
Inspector is long gone, there's no need for these to pollute
Core::Object.
This patch adds a new GUI::Object class to hold properties, and makes
it the new base class of GUI::Window, GUI::Widget and GUI::Layout.
The "instantiate an object by name" mechanism that GML uses is also
hoisted into GUI::Object as well.
These passes have not been shown to actually optimize any JS, and tests
have become very flaky with optimizations enabled. Until some measurable
benefit is shown, remove the optimization passes to reduce overhead of
maintaining bytecode operations and to reduce CI churn. The framework
for optimizations will live on in git history, and can be restored once
proven useful.
The JS::VM now owns the one Bytecode::Interpreter. We no longer have
multiple bytecode interpreters, and there is no concept of a "current"
bytecode interpreter.
If you ask for VM::bytecode_interpreter_if_exists(), it will return null
if we're not running the program in "bytecode enabled" mode.
If you ask for VM::bytecode_interpreter(), it will return a bytecode
interpreter in all modes. This is used for situations where even the AST
interpreter switches to bytecode mode (generators, etc.)
Don't try to implement this AO in bytecode. Instead, the bytecode
Interpreter class now has a run() API with the same inputs as the AST
interpreter. It sets up the necessary environments etc, including
invoking the GlobalDeclarationInstantiation AO.
Similar to POSIX read, the basic read and write functions of AK::Stream
do not have a lower limit of how much data they read or write (apart
from "none at all").
Rename the functions to "read some [data]" and "write some [data]" (with
"data" being omitted, since everything here is reading and writing data)
to make them sufficiently distinct from the functions that ensure to
use the entire buffer (which should be the go-to function for most
usages).
No functional changes, just a lot of new FIXMEs.
Instead of just calling JS::Value::to_string_without_side_effects() when
printing values to the console, have all the console clients use
the same JS::Print that the REPL does to print values.
This method leaves some things to be desired as far as OOM hardening
goes, however. We should be able to create a String in a way that
doesn't OOM on failure so hard.
Previously, we only saved the REPL history when the interpreter was
shutdown with a signal. This change ensures that we save the history
when a user uses `exit()`.
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.
`Stream` will be qualified as `AK::Stream` until we remove the
`Core::Stream` namespace. `IODevice` now reuses the `SeekMode` that is
defined by `SeekableStream`, since defining its own would require us to
qualify it with `AK::SeekMode` everywhere.
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.
Having an alias function that only wraps another one is silly, and
keeping the more obvious name should flush out more uses of deprecated
strings.
No behavior change.
This generally seems like a better name, especially if we somehow also
need a better name for "read the entire buffer, but not the entire file"
somewhere down the line.
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.
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.
