perf(codegen): constructed throw operands keep the packed fast path (7.99 → 0.95 ns, 8.1× vs node) - #9235
Conversation
|
Rebased now that #9230 has merged — only the constructed-throw commit remains, and the conflict is gone. Diff is 2 files / +492 / −2. Worth flagging the ordering consequence: the const evil: any = { valueOf(): number { throw new Error("from valueOf"); } };
const two: any = 2;
let s = 0, c = 0;
try { for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) { if (arr[i] === 40) throw (evil + two); c++; s += arr[i]; } }
catch (e) { /* main: c=0 s=0 — node: c=40 s=780 */ }

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughPacked-loop throw analysis now admits only operands that cannot unwind and preserves array-length checks for intrinsic Error construction. Integration tests cover safe and unsafe operands, accumulator writeback, and shadowed constructors. Dynamic negation now performs ChangesPacked-loop throw handling
Dynamic numeric negation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This PR changes packed-loop exception handling, but some admitted operands can still execute user-defined getters or throw before loop state is synchronized, leading to stale accumulator values or incorrect iteration bounds in generated programs. The regression suite may also pass without exercising the optimized path unless that mode is forced. These are concrete correctness and validation risks that should be fixed before merging.

- Around line 5383-5385: Update the Expr::IndexGet admission check to accept
packed-array reads only when the object is the local arr_id and the index is
exactly the proven counter_id; remove the broader
expr_is_coercion_free_primitive check so arbitrary primitive indices cannot
qualify.
- Around line 8333-8335: Update the Expr::ErrorNewWithOptions handling in the
loop length-preservation walker so it is not treated as length-preserving when
options.cause may invoke user code; only accept it when that read is proven
side-effect-free, preventing lower_for from caching a stale arr.length bound.
- Line 5326: Update the throw-operand handling around Expr::LocalGet to reject

Reject TDZ-sensitive local reads.
Expr::LocalGet(_) can call js_box_get_bits for a TDZ-seeded boxed lexical binding. That call can raise ReferenceError before Stmt::Throw calls flush_packed_accumulator_locals, so the catch block can observe stale packed accumulators. Exclude TDZ-sensitive locals from throw_operand_cannot_unwind, or flush before lowering the operand.

Restrict packed-array reads to the proven in-bounds index.
This accepts arr[999], arr[-1], and arr["x"] when the index expression is primitive. Those reads can resolve an indexed Array.prototype getter. The getter can throw before the flush, or mutate state that the packed clone does not model.
Require the index to be the proven loop counter for this admission.

matches!(object.as_ref(), Expr::LocalGet(id) if *id == arr_id)

Do not mark ErrorNewWithOptions as length-preserving.
js_error_new_kind_with_options_from_value dynamically reads options.cause. A getter can set arr.length = 3. The current walker returns true after walking only message and options, so lower_for can cache arr.length and use the stale bound for later iterations. Reject this expression unless the cause read is proven not to execute user code.

…7.99 -> 0.95 ns, 8.1x vs node)
Builds on the writeback fix in the parent commit. That made a throw safe;
this makes the common validation shape FAST, and closes a hole the parent
still had.
`if (bad) throw new Error("…")` stayed on the generic path at 7.99 ns/op.
Two gates had to open together, which is why neither showed an effect
alone: the length hoist rejected the construction node, AND the admission
rejected the operand. Opening both puts every throw shape at 0.95.
The hole. The writeback is emitted AT the throw site, after the operand is
lowered, so an operand that unwinds ON ITS OWN skips it and leaves the
accumulators stale — PerryTS#9185's defect one level deeper. Two expressions can
unwind without looking like calls:
const evil = { toString() { throw new Error("x") } };
throw new Error(evil); // stringifying the message dispatches
throw (evil + two); // `+` dispatches to valueOf/toString
Both gave `c=0 s=0` where node gives `c=40 s=780`. The second needs no
Error at all and was reachable through the parent commit's own admission
rule, which accepted `Expr::Binary` over locals.
`throw_operand_cannot_unwind` replaces that rule. Throwing a value coerces
nothing, so a bare local stays admissible whatever it holds; anything that
COERCES — arithmetic, concatenation, an Error message being stringified —
must be `expr_is_coercion_free_primitive`: literals, the loop counter, an
element of the packed array (a genuine double by the clone's own guard),
and arithmetic over those. Deliberately syntactic, and deliberately
narrower than `expr_is_packed_f64_loop_safe`, whose question is "can the
clone keep running" rather than "can this unwind".
Error identity is not decided here: HIR emits the Error nodes only for the
INTRINSIC constructor (`lower_new` gates on `!shadowed_by_user_binding`),
so a user `class Error` lowers to `Expr::New` and is still rejected. Four
shadowing forms are covered by tests. `ErrorNewWithCause`/`WithOptions`
stay out — their options object is read at runtime and can carry getters.
Measured on the quiet host (Mac mini, load 1.5), 5 reps x 2 runs, stable
to 0.01 ns/op — perry now beats node on every shape in this benchmark:
new Error("bad") 7.99 -> 0.95 node 7.71 8.1x FASTER
new Error("bad " + i) 7.99 -> 0.95 node 7.75 8.2x
new Error() 7.99 -> 0.95 node 7.75 8.2x

js_dynamic_neg negated the raw NaN-boxed bits after its BigInt arm, so an
object operand never had valueOf called: -{ valueOf() { throw … } } answered
NaN while +x, ~x and x * 2 on the same object all threw. Routes Neg's
non-numeric lowering through the helper, mirroring Pos. Pre-existing; surfaced
by this PR's own a_unary_operand_whose_valueof_throws test.

Merged, with one fix pushed onto the branch — for a bug your own new test caught, which is the best possible argument for the test. On the "two gates" finding: worth stating plainly, because it's the general lesson. You opened each gate separately, measured no change, and concluded the first was a no-op. Two gates in series both have to open before anything moves, so measuring them one at a time reports "no effect" for a change that is doing exactly what it should. That's the same shape as a vacuous A/B — the measurement is real, the conclusion isn't — and it's worth remembering next time a codegen gate "does nothing." Verified the widening is real rather than trusting the ns figure. IR markers for a summing loop:
So the constructed case genuinely joins the fast path. On the latent hole: I could not reproduce it on What I fixed: I confirmed this is not from my Validation: #9230 was already merged before this arrived, so its commit rebased out as already-applied; this branch's remaining content is the widening plus the writeback fix. |
…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>
Closes #9232. Supersedes #9230 — this branch contains that commit and then fixes a latent wrong answer in it, so please take this one rather than merging #9230 on its own.
Two gates, and why neither showed an effect alone
if (bad) throw new Error("…")sat at 7.99 ns/op. The length hoist rejected the construction node and the admission rejected the operand. I opened each separately, measured no change, and wrongly concluded the first was a no-op — they only move together. Opening both puts every throw shape at 0.95.The hole this also fixes
#9230's writeback is emitted at the throw site, after the operand is lowered. An operand that unwinds on its own therefore skips it, leaving the accumulators stale — #9185's defect one level deeper. Two expressions can unwind without looking like calls:
Both returned
c=0 s=0where node givesc=40 s=780. The second involves no Error construction at all and was reachable through #9230's own admission rule, which acceptedExpr::Binaryover two locals — so that PR needed this fix regardless of the perf work.throw_operand_cannot_unwindreplaces it. Throwing a value coerces nothing, so a bare local stays admissible whatever it holds; anything that coerces must beexpr_is_coercion_free_primitive— literals, the loop counter, an element of the packed array (a genuine double by the clone's own guard), and arithmetic over those. Syntactic on purpose, and narrower thanexpr_is_packed_f64_loop_safe, whose question is "can the clone keep running", not "can this unwind".Error identity is not decided here: HIR emits these nodes only for the intrinsic constructor (
lower_newgates on!shadowed_by_user_binding), so a userclass Errorlowers toExpr::Newand is still rejected — four shadowing forms are tested.ErrorNewWithCause/WithOptionsstay out, since their options object is read at runtime and can carry getters.Numbers
