Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The compiler now synchronizes promoted loop state before admitted throws, preserving catch-visible values while retaining the optimized path. The change is mergeable with owner awareness, but an inaccurate regression-test note about fast-path usage should be corrected or explicitly accepted. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Correct the fast-path statement.
Line 153 says this loop is no longer admitted. throwPre and throwValue throw LocalGet operands, which the updated Stmt::Throw matcher admits to the packed fast path. State that the loop is admitted again and that the throw-site writeback preserves the catch-visible values.

Please hold this one — I have found a latent wrong answer in it and am fixing it. The flush itself is correct; the admission predicate guarding it is not tight enough.
const evil: any = { valueOf(): number { throw new Error("from valueOf"); } };
…
if (arr[i] === 40) throw (evil + two);
c++; s += arr[i];
// this PR: c=0 s=0 node: c=40 s=780No Error construction involved, so it is not about the constructed-operand work — it is this PR's own admission rule. The fix is a dedicated predicate for a thrown operand: a bare Updating shortly with that predicate plus the regression case. |
… the fast path (7.99 -> 0.95 ns) The parent commit took `throw` back out of the packed-f64 versioned loop because PerryTS#9185 admitted it without emitting the loop-carried writeback on the unwind edge, which was a silent wrong answer. This puts the fast path back by fixing the actual defect. `PackedAccumulatorScope::finish` covers the fall-through exit and the side-exit trampolines cover a mid-iteration deopt, but both are blocks the clone BRANCHES to, which is how `break` and `continue` reach them. An unwind reaches neither: under invoke-EH `js_throw` leaves for the landing pad from inside the call itself, so a `catch` sees whatever is in the real slot at that moment. `flush_packed_accumulator_locals` emits the stores at the throw site, between lowering the operand (which may read or write an accumulator through the redirect) and the throw. It covers both promoted representations. A `+=` accumulator lives in a DOUBLE alloca; a `c++` counter lives in a separate i32 slot and converts back with `sitofp`. A flush walking only the float table would leave `c` stale while `s` looked right, so the added test asserts both. Unlike `finish` this does not unregister the redirects — lowering continues inside the clone afterwards. Iteration is sorted because the side tables are hash-keyed and IR order must not depend on hash order; __text is byte-identical across repeated builds of the same source. The admission now also checks the thrown operand the way `Stmt::Return` checks its value. PerryTS#9185 admitted any throw and leaned on `stmt_array_length_effect` to reject the constructing ones, which states the requirement in a weaker place. Measured on the quiet host (Mac mini, load 1.5), 5 reps x 3 runs, stable to 0.01 ns: with_throw 7.99 -> 0.95 ns/op (node 1.10) 8.4x, now 1.16x FASTER than node with_break 0.95 -> 0.95 (node 1.11) no_throw 0.95 -> 0.95 (node 1.10) The tests were verified to guard the flush rather than merely pass beside it: with the flush call disabled, both regression tests fail (`s` reads 0 instead of 780, `c` reads 0 instead of 40) and pass again once restored. Size: __text +192 B (+0.002%). Fixes PerryTS#9210. Refs PerryTS#9151, PerryTS#9185.

Merged. This is the real fix that #9215 was holding the door for, and it does what the revert couldn't: restores the fast path instead of giving it up. Verified both halves, because either alone would be a wrong merge. It's correct. All ten shapes from the #9215 investigation match node 26.5.1:
The nested row is the one I'd single out. On the broken compiler it gave 17594 — a partial flush, short by 52, not a zero. That's the dangerous shape, because 17594 looks like an answer while 0 announces itself. A fix validated only on the zero-valued rows could have left it standing, so it's worth keeping in the regression set permanently. Credit to the peer who found that row. It's actually enabled. A fix that's correct because the optimization silently stayed off would pass every one of those rows, so I IR-diffed
So the fast path is genuinely back for the admissible case and the constructing throw still isn't admitted. Validation: For the record on how this got here: I merged #9185, and my review of it specifically hunted the unwind hazard and cleared it on the wrong distinction — I checked that a |

…4 PRs through this hole in one day) (#9256) * docs(contributing): do not cancel the CI run of the PR being merged A cancelled job is neither a pass nor a failure, and two protections go quiet together: pr-gate never reports (so the required context is absent rather than red, which is what invites the bypass), and the changelog fragment check — a step inside lint, conditioned on pull_request — is skipped silently, so the omission stays invisible until release notes are cut. Both were observed on the same day. #9169 merged with lint failing and five jobs cancelled, breaking method dispatch and property lookup on main for four and a half hours (#9247). #9215, #9230 and #9235 each merged with lint CANCELLED; all three touched crates/, none carried a fragment, and the work is absent from its release notes. States explicitly that the gate is correct and should not be changed: gate in test.yml runs if: always() and treats cancelled as failure, exactly so a cancelled dependency cannot read as green. Every incident has been a bypass of a working gate. Docs only. * docs(contributing): teach 'pr-gate present and passing', not 'nothing red' A gate that never ran is absent from the status list, so it reads as clean under any failure filter — the same way CANCELLED does. 'pr-gate: pass' is a positive assertion that the fan-in ran and every dependency was success or skipped; '0 failing' is satisfied equally by a PR whose gate never executed. Extends the note to release automation, where the same hole exists one level up: a skipped or absent required context satisfies 'not failing', so the dispatch condition has to require conclusion == success. --------- Co-authored-by: Ralph Küpper <ralph@skelpo.com>
….5.1519 (#9255) #9215, #9230 and #9235 merged without changelog fragments, so the v0.5.1519 notes carry no mention of the change. Only one entry is actually missing: #9215 and #9230 fix a regression from #9185 that was introduced and repaired entirely within the unreleased window, so no released version ever exhibited it and describing it as a fix would tell readers their current version is affected when none ever was. The fragment states the shipping release explicitly, so folding it into the next set of notes reads as a correction rather than as a new change. Docs only; no code, and no effect on the frozen v0.5.1519 candidate. Co-authored-by: Ralph Küpper <ralph@skelpo.com>

Fixes #9210. Supersedes #9215 — this branch contains that revert as its first commit, so merging this alone resolves the wrong answer currently on
