Intermediate classes in the initialize() chain set up prototypes and
define properties. Forgetting to call Base::initialize() in any
override would silently skip that setup.
This ensures that we are explicitly declaring the allocator to use when
allocating a cell(-inheriting) type, instead of silently falling back
to size-based allocation.
Since this is done in allocate_cell, this will only be detected for
types that are actively being allocated. However, since that means
they're _not_ being allocated, that means it's safe to not declare
an allocator to use for those. For example, the base TypedArray<T>,
which is never directly allocated and only the defined specializations
are ever allocated.
In our process architecture, there's only ever one JS::VM per process.
This allows us to have a VM::the() singleton getter that optimizes
down to a single global access everywhere.
Seeing 1-2% speed-up on all JS benchmarks from this.
We don't need to return two values; running an executable only ever
produces a throw completion, or a normal completion, i.e a Value.
This necessitated a few minor changes, such as adding a way to check
if a JS::Cell is a GeneratorResult.
This reverts commit c14173f651. We
should only annotate the minimum number of symbols that external
consumers actually use, so I am starting from scratch to do that
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
Instead, smuggle it in as a `void*` private data and let Javascript
aware code cast out that pointer to a VM&.
In order to make this split, rename JS::Cell to JS::CellImpl. Once we
have a LibGC, this will become GC::Cell. CellImpl then has no specific
knowledge of the VM& and Realm&. That knowledge is instead put into
JS::Cell, which inherits from CellImpl. JS::Cell is responsible for
JavaScript's realm initialization, as well as converting of the void*
private data to what it knows should be the VM&.
NanBoxedValue is intended to be a GC-allocatable type which is not
specific to javascript, towards the effort of factoring out the GC
implementation from LibJS.
