This commits puts the strict mode flag in the header of every bytecode
instruction. This allows us to check for strict mode without looking at
the currently running execution context.
This is only used to specify how a property is being added to an object
by Put* instructions, so let's call it PutKind.
Also add an enumeration X macro for it to prepare for upcoming
specializations.
Previously, PutById constructed a PropertyKey from the identifier,
which coerced numeric-like strings to numbers. This moves that decision
to bytecode generation: the bytecode generator now emits PutByNumericId
for numeric keys and PutById for string keys. This removes per-execution
parsing from the interpreter.
1.4x speedup on the following microbenchmark:
```js
const o = {};
for (let i = 0; i < 10_000_000; i++) {
o.a = 1;
o.b = 2;
o.c = 3;
}
```
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
`var` bindings are never in the temporal dead zone (TDZ), and so we
know accessing them will not throw.
We now take advantage of this by having a specialized environment
binding value getter that doesn't check for exceptional cases.
1.08x speedup on JetStream.
Before this change, setting a global would end up as SetLexicalBinding.
That instruction always failed to cache the access if the global was a
property of the global object.
1.14x speedup on Octane/earley-boyer.js
2.04x speedup on MicroBench/for-of.js
Note that MicroBench/for-of.js was more of a "set global" benchmark
before this. After this change, it's actually a for..of benchmark. :^)
...by avoiding `{ value, done }` iterator result value allocation. This
change applies the same otimization 81b6a11 added for `for..in` and
`for..of`.
Makes following micro benchmark go 22% faster on my computer:
```js
function f() {
const arr = [];
for (let i = 0; i < 10_000_000; i++) {
arr.push([i]);
}
let sum = 0;
for (let [i] of arr) {
sum += i;
}
}
f();
```
Introduce special instruction for `for..of` and `for..in` loop that
skips `{ value, done }` result object allocation if iterator is builtin
(array, map, set, string). This reduces GC pressure significantly and
avoids extracting the `value` and `done` properties.
This change makes this micro benchmark 48% faster on my computer:
```js
const arr = new Array(10_000_000);
let counter = 0;
for (let _ of arr) {
counter++;
}
```
Instead of returning internal generator results as ordinary JS::Objects
with properties, we now use GeneratorResult and CompletionCell which
both inherit from Cell directly and allow efficient access to state.
1.59x speedup on JetStream3/lazy-collections.js :^)
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
