This patch adds two macros to declare per-type allocators:
- JS_DECLARE_ALLOCATOR(TypeName)
- JS_DEFINE_ALLOCATOR(TypeName)
When used, they add a type-specific CellAllocator that the Heap will
delegate allocation requests to.
The result of this is that GC objects of the same type always end up
within the same HeapBlock, drastically reducing the ability to perform
type confusion attacks.
It also improves HeapBlock utilization, since each block now has cells
sized exactly to the type used within that block. (Previously we only
had a handful of block sizes available, and most GC allocations ended
up with a large amount of slack in their tails.)
There is a small performance hit from this, but I'm sure we can make
up for it elsewhere.
Note that the old size-based allocators still exist, and we fall back
to them for any type that doesn't have its own CellAllocator.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
This is an editorial change in the Temporal spec.
See: 983902e
We already had these defined as structs, but now they're properly
defined in the spec (opposed to the previous anonymous records), and we
don't have to make up our own names anymore :^)
Note that while we're usually not including 'record' in the name, in
this case the 'Duration Record' has a name clash with the Duration
object. Additionally, later editorial changes introduce CreateFooRecord
AOs, so let's just go with FooRecord structs here.
This is especially helpful where we already pass StringView literals
and only compare them with others, e.g. overflow and largest/smallest
unit, in which case there's no need to actually allocate a string.
This is Abstract Operation is required for the majority of
InstantConstructor's and InstantPrototype's methods.
The implementation is not entirely complete, (specifically 2 of the
underlying required abstract operations, ParseTemporalTimeZoneString
and ParseISODateTime are missing the required lexing, and as such are
TODO()-ed) but the majority of it is done.
