We already had IC support in PutById for the following cases:
- Changing an existing own property
- Calling a setter located in the prototype chain
This was enough to speed up code where structurally identical objects
(same shape) are processed in a loop:
```js
const arr = [{ a: 1 }, { a: 2 }, { a: 3 }];
for (let obj of arr) {
obj.a += 1;
}
```
However, creating structurally identical objects in a loop was still
slow:
```js
for (let i = 0; i < 10_000_000; i++) {
const o = {};
o.a = 1;
o.b = 2;
o.c = 3;
}
```
This change addresses that by adding a new IC type that caches both the
source and target shapes, allowing property additions to be fast-pathed
by directly jumping to the shape that already includes the new property.
Adds inline implementation for the most common case when `Value` is
already an object.
1.47x improvement on the following benchmark:
```js
const o = {};
for (let i = 0; i < 10_000_000; i++) {
o.a = 1;
o.b = 2;
o.c = 3;
}
```
This first pass only applies to the following two cases:
- Public functions returning a view type into an object they own
- Public ctors storing a view type
This catches a grand total of one (1) issue, which is fixed in
the previous commit.
After LibJS had its symbol exports optimized the targets
js, test-js, test262-runner, test-wasm, and LibWeb began to get linker
errors after the work to add Windows support for test-web and ladybird
targets. These extra JS_API annotations fix all those linker errors.
The relevant type of ArrayBuffer DataBlock is now a struct containing
both a ByteBuffer* and a size_t size, and not just a ByteBuffer*, with
the size being that of the ByteBuffer. This type of DataBlock is only
used for WebAssembly.Memory (see commit 4fd43a8f96), meaning this
change won't affect any other code. This change is required to pass one
WPT subtest in wasm/jsapi/memory/grow.any.html, since old fixed-length
SharedArrayBuffers after a WebAssembly.Memory growth should keep their
length, while the new buffer after the growth will have the updated
length.
Before porting to UTF-16, these instances held a String. The port to
UTF-16 changed them to hold the original string as a StringView, and
lazily allocated the UTF-16 message as needed. This somehow negatively
impacting the zlib.js benchmark in the Octane suite.
This ports the lexer to UTF-16 and deals with the immediate fallout up
to the AST. The AST will be dealt with in upcoming commits.
The lexer will still accept UTF-8 strings as input, and will transcode
them to UTF-16 for lexing. This doesn't actually incur a new allocation,
as we were already converting the input StringView to a ByteString for
each lexer.
One immediate logical benefit here is that we do not need to know off-
hand how many UTF-8 bytes some special code points occupy. They all
happen to be a single UTF-16 code unit. So instead of advancing the
lexer by 3 positions in some cases, we can just always advance by 1.
For the web, we allow a wobbly UTF-16 encoding (i.e. lonely surrogates
are permitted). Only in a few exceptional cases do we strictly require
valid UTF-16. As such, our `validate(AllowLonelySurrogates::Yes)` calls
will always succeed. It's a wasted effort to ever make such a check.
This patch eliminates such invocations. The validation methods will now
only check for strict UTF-16, and are only invoked when needed.
This has quite a lot of fall out. But the majority of it is just type or
UDL substitution, where the changes just fall through to other function
calls.
By changing property key storage to UTF-16, the main affected areas are:
* NativeFunction names must now be UTF-16
* Bytecode identifiers must now be UTF-16
* Module/binding names must now be UTF-16
