[Jarred-Sumner]

Sixteen independent commits that oven-sh/bun#44833 needs. They're easiest to review one commit at a time, and each commit message has the details. Commits 1 to 4, 7 and 9 are for USE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS), and change no behavior with it off. Commit 13 raises a limit, and commit 14 fixes a wrong result. The others are plain optimizations, with no change in behavior. Neither is behind the flag.

1. Live exports

An import binding resolves once to a slot in the exporter's module environment, and the JIT tiers read that slot directly. So a module mock can't be applied, or changed, once the importer has linked.

Exports of a record with hasLiveExports() are never cached. Every read, through an import binding or a namespace object, does liveExportsSource()->get(exportName). Getters stay getters, and setLiveExportsSource() takes effect for modules that are already linked.

Where to look:

• Resolution (resolveExportImpl). A live record resolves any name to (record, exportName), so a name the mock doesn't have fails when it's read, not at link time. Three rules for export *, all taken from Vitest, where a module is an object and export * copies the keys the target doesn't have yet:
  • A query that arrives through export * only matches names the record declares, so it doesn't shadow a sibling export *.
  • If no module exports the name, it resolves to the first live record an export * led to. So import { x } from "./barrel" still links when the barrel gets x from a module whose mock doesn't have it.
  • A live export never makes a name ambiguous. The first export * that provides the name wins.
• Re-exports (getReexportedLiveExport). Through another module's export { x } from or export *, a name the source doesn't have reads as undefined. Bun's source throws from [[Get]] for such a name, and only an import from the mock itself should see that. Otherwise Object.keys() of a barrel throws.
• Listing keys (getOwnPropertyNames). It performs [[GetOwnProperty]] on each key so that an uninitialized binding throws. It skips that for a name re-exported from a live record, which is never uninitialized: the read ran the accessors of the source, so Object.keys() of a barrel ran the getters of the mock behind it. Found in review. for...in still reads each name once, through its own [[GetOwnProperty]].
• Namespace star walk (getModuleNamespace). It stays single-pass. Names exported below a live record that has its own export * go to the resolveExport() slow path. Debug builds assert that the walk and resolveExport() agree.
• Codegen (JSScope::abstractAccess). Imports of live exports get ResolveType Dynamic and go through JSModuleEnvironment::getOwnPropertySlot. The exporter's slot is never read or written.
• Code cache (CodeCache::getUnlinkedGlobalCodeBlock). Baseline code is cached on the UnlinkedCodeBlock, which records of the same source share, and it bakes in the resolve type. So the list of live imports is part of the SourceCodeKey. An earlier version missed this, and shared Baseline code returned wrong values and crashed.
• Namespace object (JSModuleNamespaceObject). For a live record it forwards [[Get]], [[HasProperty]], [[OwnPropertyKeys]], [[Set]], [[DefineOwnProperty]] and [[Delete]] to the source, and reports its properties as configurable. So ns.x = v changes what importers of x read. Vitest allows this, because there a mocked module is a plain object, and tests rely on it. [[Set]] and [[Delete]] give the source a slot of its own: the source would mark the caller's slot cacheable, and the IC would cache that for the namespace object's structure, which doesn't change when the source does. [[Set]] with another receiver (an object that inherits from the namespace object, or Reflect.set) is an OrdinarySet: the property is defined on the receiver and the source is left alone. The namespace object of any other record is unchanged.
• Stack checks (getLiveExport, hasLiveExport, everything the namespace object forwards). The source can be, or inherit from, a namespace object backed by the same record, and that recursion never pushes a JS frame.

A VM that never creates a live record pays one load and branch per module link. A read of a live import takes about 1,350 instructions, against 14 for an ordinary import in the same loop. About 70% of that is resolveImport(), which runs once for resolve_scope and once for get_from_scope. Caching the resolution per import would remove most of it. That isn't done here, because a test reads mocked imports tens of times, not millions.

2. A Proxy in the global object's prototype chain

This removes a check that was added for security, so please read it closely.

ProgramExecutable::initializeGlobalProperties() throws a TypeError if the global object has a Proxy in its prototype chain. This compiles that check out.

• Every lookup in that function is an own-property lookup, so a Proxy further up the chain gets no trap calls. With a logging Proxy there, no trap fires for var, function, let, const or class, and declarations still work after the Proxy is revoked.
• Upstream can't reach this state, because its global object is an immutable prototype exotic object. So upstream's tests and fuzzers never cover it. Bun clears that flag, which means a running program could already install a Proxy. What's new is declaring globals while one is there.
• get_from_scope: a Proxy's [[Get]] always reports the property as found, so a missing global read as undefined. When the scope is a global object with a Proxy in its prototype chain, the slow paths now ask [[HasProperty]] first, as GetBindingValue does, and only do the [[Get]] if the name exists. missing, missing() and missing += 1 throw a ReferenceError, typeof missing is "undefined", and neither calls the get trap.
• resolve_scope: a has trap can declare a global let with the name being resolved. The slow paths now read globalLexicalBindingEpoch before the lookup, so the cached resolution is invalidated.

Known differences from V8: traps run as has, has, get, which is the spec's HasBinding, then GetBindingValue's HasProperty and Get (V8 skips the second has). Once the DFG has compiled a global that was found, it doesn't ask [[HasProperty]] again. That's also true without a Proxy, for example Object.prototype.x read in a hot loop and then deleted.

Replaces #626.

3. CodeCache::setWorkingSetMaxEntries

CodeCacheMap starts evicting at 2,000 entries. An embedder that loads the same modules into one fresh global object after another falls off a cliff there, because each global evicts the entries the next one is about to look up.

Modules per global	Hit rate
1,950	99.9%
2,200	55.1%
2,500	23.6%
5,000	0.0%

The default is unchanged, and the setter can't go below it.

4. Resolve a static import once while it is loading

Each module gets its own ModuleGraphLoadingState, and every state that reaches a record that's still New calls hostLoadImportedModule() for each request that isn't in [[LoadedModules]] yet. Each call asks the host to resolve the same specifier again.

The resolved key is now cached on the referrer until that load finishes. After that the module is in [[LoadedModules]], or the load failed and the host is asked again. Failed resolutions and dynamic import() aren't cached.

5. /(?:X)+/ as /(?:X)*/ when X can always match the empty string

YarrJIT compiles a greedy group that has a minimum. But when an iteration of such a group consumes nothing, the generated code jumps to m_abortExecution, and RegExp::matchInline runs the whole match again in the interpreter (bug 200786). A group without a minimum doesn't have the problem: m_zeroLengthMatch backtracks into the alternative that matched the empty string. So /(?:a|[ ]?)+/ always ends up in the interpreter, and /(?:a|[ ]?)*/ never does.

The two match the same text. All that the minimum adds is a required iteration that may be empty, and what follows an empty iteration is /(?:X)*/ at the same index. So /(?:X)+/ tries the end positions of /(?:X)*/ in the same order, some of them twice.

A new pass in YarrPatternConstructor, right after parsing, sets quantityMinCount to 0 for a group when all of this holds:

• It's greedy and has no maximum. A non-greedy group would rather stop before the first iteration, and an empty iteration counts against a maximum.
• Some alternative has only terms that may be skipped. An assertion may fail, so /(?:a|\b)+/ keeps its minimum.
• Nothing can observe a capture inside it. An empty required iteration sets captures that no iteration of /(?:X)*/ sets: /(a*)+/.exec("b")[1] is "" and /(a*)*/.exec("b")[1] is undefined. This is the condition checkForTerminalParentheses() already had for match-only code, now in capturesAreObservable().
• It matches forward.

The generated code and the interpreter don't change. The walk is one pass over the terms and checks the stack, like the passes next to it.

nwsapi, the selector engine of jsdom up to version 25, validates each selector given to querySelector(), matches() and closest() with such a pattern: one group with a +, whose last alternative is an optional white space class. selector.match(validator) with nwsapi 2.2.16, in the jsc shells of this PR's preview builds:

Selector	Before	After
div.a>p#b	2.4 µs	1.6 µs
A compound selector, 59 characters	33 µs	3.1 µs
A list of 8 selectors, 129 characters	347 µs	12.7 µs
A list of 9 selectors with :not(), 341 characters	937 µs	46 µs
One identifier of 400 characters	136 µs	4.2 µs

Not covered: the same shape with captures that are observed, such as /(?:(a)|b?)+/.exec(s). It still goes to the interpreter.

6. Function.prototype.call without an array

f.call(...) is compiled to a call of f, so the builtin only runs when Function.prototype.call is reached in another way. The common one is

const hasOwn = Function.prototype.call.bind(Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty);

which Node's own modules and many packages use for every builtin they call. jsdom up to version 25 has this very line, and calls hasOwn() in the brand check at the top of each DOM method and accessor.

The builtin made an arguments object, copied it to an array in a loop, and called this with @apply. The DFG inlines a bound function, and inlines this builtin under it with f as a constant this, but it can't do anything about a varargs call of f.

• Up to three arguments after thisArgument: the builtin now calls this with a fixed number of arguments. handleCall() sees a constant callee and inlines it, or its intrinsic, so hasOwn(object, key) becomes a HasOwnProperty node.
• More arguments: the new @argumentsFrom(n) emits op_create_rest where it's used. An arguments object or a rest parameter is made on entry to the function, and the DFG tier doesn't eliminate either, so merely having one in the function cost 20 ns on the fast paths.
• @alwaysInline: the function is now 123 bytes of bytecode, and the DFG tier inlines up to 80. Where the number of arguments is known, all paths but one are dead code.

Nanoseconds per call, in the jsc shells of this PR's preview builds, on a loaded machine:

	hasOwn(o, symbol), before	After	call.bind(aFunction)(o, k), before	After
All tiers	94	5.1	39	7.4
--useFTLJIT=0	126	7.3	65	9.2
--useDFGJIT=0	317	88	286	86
--useJIT=0	605	304	933	342

7. Cheaper checks for live exports

Commit 1 added checks for live exports that were a load and a branch each. Some are in loops, and it showed. User instructions against the base, with no live record anywhere:

	Commits 1 to 6	With this commit
Barrels: 500 modules that each import 10 names from a barrel of 30 barrels of 10 modules	+2.40%	+0.44%
Wide: 3,000 modules that each import 2 names from each of 5 others	−13.86%	−13.84%
Namespaces: 200 modules that import * as that barrel and 5 of its modules, and read and list them	+0.47%	−0.21%
Chains: 200 chains of 20 export { x } from	+1.02%	+0.94%
Cycles: 400 modules in rings of 8, with export * around the ring	−3.01%	−2.99%
import() of 1,500 modules, then 20,000 more of the same	+0.19%	+0.16%
name in ns, all tiers	+0.93%	+0.31%
ns.missing, all tiers	+1.12%	+0.75%
Object.keys(ns), all tiers	+1.42%	+0.39%
{ ...ns }, all tiers	+1.20%	+0.28%
Object.hasOwn(ns, name), all tiers	+1.50%	+0.14%
ns.name and an import binding, all tiers	+0.01%	+0.01%

• resolveExportImpl() reads CodeCache::hasModuleRecordWithLiveExports() once. Its loop visits every module that an export * leads to, for every name, and now tests a local before it looks at the record.
• Task::viaStarExport is now a task type, QueryViaStarExport. The field cost more than the checks did, because every task that was pushed and popped carried it.
• A namespace object knows in its constructor whether anything it reads is live. A record has live exports from the time it's created. m_isDeferredOrLive says so, and getOwnPropertySlotCommon() tests it where it tested m_isDeferred.
• The star walk of getModuleNamespace() reads hasLiveExports() once per module, not once per export entry.

Tried and dropped: a template on the flag, so that one of the two instantiations has no code for live exports. It took 5.6% more instructions than the base on the barrels. With two callers, the HashSet's add() was no longer inlined into the loop.

The 0.9% on the chains isn't from live exports. It's the cost of filling the cache of commit 4, which is what makes the wide graph 13.8% cheaper.

8. YarrJIT saves only the frame slots of the alternative that matched

Before each iteration of a group that repeats, the JIT saves the frame slots of the group's body in a ParenContext, so that it can backtrack into the iteration before. It saved all of them. Since 311786@main each alternative has slots of its own, and backtracking into an iteration goes to the alternative that matched it, by the return address. That code, and what it falls through to, only reads slots that it or that alternative wrote. So only that alternative's slots are needed.

In /(?:\w|<a big alternative>)*/ that's none for most iterations, but every character copied the slots of the big alternative, and copied them back on the way out. nwsapi's validator has a frame of 462 slots.

• An alternative that has matched stores which slots are its own, where it stores its return address. BEGIN saves those, and the ParenContext says which they were.
• The group stores "none" on entry. This is what gets copied, so unlike the return address it's never left unset.
• No layout changes. It's stored in the slot that setupDisjunctionOffsets() reserves for the interpreter's BackTrackInfoAlternative, which the JIT didn't use. That's the first slot of the group's interior, so an enclosing group saves and restores it like any other.
• If what an alternative says isn't inside its group, the group copies everything, as before. tracksLiveFrameSlots() checks every alternative. An earlier version of this commit read a field that the mirrored alternatives of a lookbehind didn't have, and /(?<=(?:a*|b*|c*)+)x/ crashed. The review bot found it. The test has that pattern.
• ARM64 copies pairs of slots in an unrolled loop, three times cheaper per slot than a loop with a count. There, only a group with 16 slots or more does this, and an alternative with a third of the slots or more says "all", which takes the old path.
• A group that doesn't do this (one alternative, or few slots) no longer copies anything for its first iteration: there's no iteration before it to backtrack into. A group like /(?:\[<a big body>\])+/ that's tried at every token and fails on its first character copied its slots out and back each time.
• tracksLiveFrameSlots() is asked once per group. It looks at every alternative, and opCompileParenthesesSubpattern() first asked it for each alternative. A repeated group of 32,000 alternatives took 7 s to compile, and 0.1 s before the commit. Now 0.13 s.
• With ENABLE(YARR_JIT_ALL_PARENS_EXPRESSIONS) off, on a CPU other than x86-64 and ARM64, the file compiles as it did: the four uses of these helpers outside of that #if are now inside one. Found in review.

9. A WebAssembly import of a re-exported live export

WebAssemblyModuleRecord::initializeImports() called getLiveExport() for every live export. For one that the imported module only re-exports, JSModuleEnvironment and the namespace object call getReexportedLiveExport(): a name the source doesn't have is undefined. Found by the review bot.

10. A greedy group in tail position needs no state from earlier iterations

checkForTerminalParentheses() marks a greedy * or + group that's the last term of the pattern. Nothing after it can fail, so nothing backtracks into an iteration that has matched, and the JIT compiles it without ParenContexts.

The same holds one level down. After the last term of an alternative of such a group comes the end of the iteration, and then another iteration or none. It also holds for the last term of a group that runs once and is in such a position. In

/(?:\w+|(?:\[[^\]]*\])+|:\w+(?:\(|\w|\))*)*/

all three groups that repeat qualify, but only the outer one was marked. markTailLoops() marks them, and the JIT compiles them with the Terminal ops.

• One thing after such a group can fail: an enclosing group rejects an iteration that matched the empty string. Then this group has matched the empty string too. So none of its iterations has completed, the one it tried has failed, and it has nothing else to try. ParenthesesSubpatternTerminalEnd hands that backtrack to the term before the group. A + group that has matched can't be in that state, so there it's an abort to the interpreter.
• A group with captures qualifies if they can't be observed: a match-only compile without backreferences, named groups or lookbehinds. checkForTerminalParentheses() refused those. nwsapi's validator has six captures and is only ever used with String.prototype.match and the g flag.
• It's a flag of its own, isTailLoop. The frame keeps its layout and the interpreter doesn't look at the flag: there, backtracking into a terminal group is a crash.
• It runs after the passes that move alternatives, so there are no marks to clear.

11. Neighbouring alternatives of one character are one character class

/(?:[0-9]|[a-z]|_)/ matches what /(?:[0-9a-z_])/ matches. Where two of the alternatives match the same character, backtracking from the first to the second only gets to the same state again. But each alternative that fails costs an input check, a comparison and a backtrack, for every character.

mergeSingleCharacterAlternatives() merges them, in groups and assertions. It leaves alone:

• Alternatives that aren't next to each other, so the order in which the others are tried stays.
• An inverted class, and a class with strings.
• A run of nothing but literals. /^(?:a|b|foo)$/ is left to the passes that are made for lists of strings.
• The alternatives of the body. How the search for the start of a match is compiled depends on them.
• What would make a class of more than 1,024 matches and ranges. A longer run becomes several classes, and two large classes stay as they were written. Both ways of building a class are quadratic: addSorted() inserts into the middle of a vector, and coalesceTables() removes from it. (?:[A]|[B]) with 260,000 interleaved code points in each took 3.0 s and takes 0.1 s. 40,000 alternatives, each a range or the character after it, took 0.33 s, and 0.05 s before the commit. They now take 0.02 s. Written as one class, those 40,000 take 0.3 s before these commits too, and that is left alone here.

If the group's last alternative is merged away, the pass sets m_isLastAlternative on the new last one, like the other passes that remove alternatives. Only the string-list code reads that flag, and a merged group is never a string list, so this doesn't affect matching.

12. A tail loop matches a run of characters without going around the loop

In the tail loop /(?:--|[\w-]|\\.)*/, take a character of [\w-] that no earlier alternative can start with: one of \w. There the earlier alternatives fail and [\w-] matches, which is an iteration. So once [\w-] has matched, a run of \w can be matched without going around the loop:

/(?:--|[\w-]\w*|\\.)*/

Nothing backtracks into a tail loop, so nothing can tell how many iterations matched the run. The run is compiled as a greedy character class. With 2.2.16's validator, an identifier of 400 characters took 12,300 instructions and takes 4,700.

matchRunsInTailLoop() goes through the alternatives in order and keeps the set of characters they can start with. It stops at the first alternative that doesn't start with a character or a class that has to match: an optional term, a group, an assertion. A set that's too large only makes the run shorter.

What the pass can cost is bounded. Both of these were found in review.

• A budget. An alternative costs time in proportion to the sizes of that set and of its class, which is N² for a loop of N alternatives. And \p{L} is 684 ranges for five characters of source. So the pass has 16,384 entries to spend, about seven times what /(?:--|\p{L}|\p{N}|\\.)*/u takes, and the alternatives that are left stay as they were written. (?:[c₁]|xy|[c₂]|xy|…)* with 95,000 classes took 36 to 52 s, and 0.3 to 0.5 s before the commit. Now 0.37 s.
• A difference of ranges. The characters of a class that no earlier alternative can start with came from a set operation, which goes through every code point of both sets: 3.7 ms for each [\S], so 59 s for 16,000 of them, and milliseconds for one in an ordinary loop. CharacterClassConstructor::appendDifference() merges the two sorted tables instead. Those 16,000 now take 0.06 to 0.08 s, and took 0.04 s before the commit.

The bounds don't change what is generated for the patterns the pass is for: /^(?:--|[\w-]|\\.)*/, /^(?:--|\p{L}|\p{N}|\\.)*/u and /^(?:--|[a-z\d-]|\\.)*/i retire the same number of instructions with and without them, to 0.004%. That is 37%, 44% and 30% fewer than before the commit.

Only in a tail loop. Anywhere else the rewrite makes (?:…|C|…)+ into (?:…|CC*|…)+, which backtracks exponentially on an input that doesn't match, unless the run is possessive. PatternTerm::m_possessive is a hint: the interpreter ignores it, and so does the JIT for a class of mixed widths. So an identifier inside […], which ] has to follow, still goes around the loop for each character.

13. Plain character classes don't count toward the pattern length limit

Parser::parse() rejects a pattern longer than maxPatternSize (1 MiB) with "regular expression too large". The limit bounds compile time and memory.

Source length is a bad estimate of compile cost when a pattern has long character classes. A class that contains only characters and ranges compiles to one sorted list, which is a single term, no matter how it's written. An astral range written with \u{...} escapes is about twenty characters long, so a pattern with only a few thousand terms can exceed 1 MiB. V8 compiles patterns like that. Its limit is on the size of the generated code: it rejects a 100,000-character literal, which Yarr accepts.

The new rule:

• A plain class counts as one character. A plain class contains only characters, character escapes and ranges, and can start with ^. sizeWithoutPlainCharacterClasses() scans the source once, and only for patterns over 1 MiB, so nothing changes for shorter patterns.
• Every other class counts at its full length, as before. That's any class containing \d \D \s \S \w \W \p \P or \q, and with the v flag any class containing a nested class, -- or &&. The table below shows what some of these cost.
• The whole source can't be longer than 4 MiB. V8 14.6 compiles a 3.9-million-character pattern made of long classes and rejects an 8-million-character one.
• A pattern that was too long outside its classes is still rejected, before anything is parsed and with the same message. LayoutTests/js/stack-overflow-regexp.js and LayoutTests/js/dom/regexp-overflow.js have patterns like that, and their expectations don't change.

Once a class contains more than characters and ranges, its length says little about its cost:

Class	Cost
[ab], [^a], [\Sa], with u or v	0.001 ms
[\p{L}x]	7 KB and 0.014 ms, because \p{L} is about 650 ranges. 100,000 distinct classes (1.5 MiB of source) used 0.7 GB and 1.4 s
[\S--a], [[\S]], with v	6 ms, because a set operation visits every code point of its operands
[[^a]], with v	12 ms

The last two rows are the same without this PR: 2,000 classes like [\S--a] are 13 KB of source and compile in 13 s.

Earlier versions of this commit

The first version (9439c8cb) just raised the limit to 16 MiB. That was wrong, because a literal or an alternation needs about 600 bytes per character to compile:

Length	Literal	Alternation of a|
1 MiB	0.7 GB, 1.3 s	0.5 GB, 1.4 s
4 MiB	2.4 GB, 4.6 s	2.1 GB, 8.6 s
8 MiB	5.0 GB, 13 s	4.2 GB, 19 s
12 MiB	aborts	6.2 GB, 26 s
16 MiB	aborts	8.3 GB, 36 s

The second version skipped the contents of every class, up to 16 MiB. That was still too permissive, because of the costs in the first table.

What plain classes cost

These 16 MiB patterns are made only of classes. They were measured on the first version, on a loaded machine. The source is now capped at 4 MiB, so no pattern gets this big anymore:

Pattern	Memory	Time
One single-character class, repeated	under 100 MB	0.3 s
Every astral code point, descending, u	127 MB	0.1 s
Every second astral code point as an escape, descending, iu (4.7 MB, and there aren't any more)	97 MB	19 s
304 classes of 55,040 BMP characters, descending	63 MB	0.4 s
609 classes of every second BMP character, descending, i	114 MB	54 s
5.6 million nested classes, v (now rejected)	153 MB	1.0 s
Class strings in one \q{...}, v (now rejected)	aborts at 6 GB

Memory use is small. Time is what can grow. Building a class is quadratic when its characters are written in descending order with gaps between them, so that they can't merge into ranges: addSorted() inserts each one at the front of a sorted vector. That's already true on main. How many characters a pattern can contain depends on how they're written, and Unicode only has room for about 556,000 of them.

These were measured with the u flag on a loaded machine. "main" is Bun on main's WebKit. "PR" is Bun on autobuild-preview-pr-781-1dcfd63c, which has the same class-building code:

Pattern	Length	Build	Time
One class, 104,000 characters as \u{...}	0.97 M	main	0.4 s
One class, 524,287 unescaped characters (the most main accepts)	1.05 M	main	9.8 s
The same pattern	1.05 M	PR	10.2 s
The same characters, ascending	1.05 M	main	0.014 s
One class, 400,000 characters as \u{...}	3.63 M	PR	5.5 s
One class, all 555,903 characters, unescaped	1.08 M	PR	12.2 s
One class, all 370,602 ranges, unescaped	1.81 M	PR	12.0 s
Four classes of 524,286 unescaped characters	4.19 M	PR	39.9 s

So a single class is at most about 25% slower than one that main already compiles, however long its source is. Four of those classes fit in 4 MiB, and they're four times as slow as one, so the time per character of source is the same as on main. Classes written in ascending order, which is what generators emit, compile in milliseconds.

14. YarrJIT frees the ParenContexts of a failed attempt before it tries the next start position

Nothing backtracks into a lookaround that has matched. So the ParenContexts that the groups inside it allocated are never freed, and they stay on the stack while the search moves on to the next start position, which allocates more. After some number of positions allocateParenContext() reaches the stack limit, the JIT code returns JITCodeFailure, and the interpreter runs the whole match again. On a longer input the interpreter reaches matchLimit, and exec() returns null for a string that has a match.

/(?=((?:ab|c)+))\1x/ on "ab".repeat(n / 2) + "yabx", where the only match is at the end. Milliseconds for one exec(), the best of five, x86-64, LTO build:

Characters	Before	After	V8 14.6
256	0.02	0.02	0.03
1,024	31	0.4	0.4
4,096	360, null	9	6
16,384	355, null	196	92

The fix. Once every body alternative has failed at a start position, no ParenContext is reachable. parenContextHead has five uses: a group stores null to it on the way in, the push reads and writes it, and so does the pop, which only runs after the group was entered in the same attempt. So the stack pointer goes back to the frame and the free list is emptied, with the two instructions the function's entry uses for the stack pointer.

Where. After the switch in generate(), where the search prefilters of a BodyAlternativeBegin converge before alternative 0's terms. It runs once per candidate position and not in the skip loops. A path that doesn't pass there keeps its contexts until the next one that does, as before. So a missed path costs stack and never correctness.

Only for a pattern with such a group inside a lookaround. Everywhere else backtracking frees every context. Emitted for every pattern with ParenContexts, the three instructions cost this much, in instructions retired, on patterns that gain nothing. Two runs of one binary differ by 0.001%.

Pattern, on 10,000 characters of words	For every pattern	As committed
/(?:(q)|z)+!/, fails at once at each position	+4.80%	0.00%
/(?:(\w)|-)+!/	+1.91%	0.00%
/(?:([a-m])|([n-z]))+\d/	+1.37%	0.00%
/(?:(\w+) )+sit/, matches early	0.00%	0.00%

Not fixed. Within one attempt a lookaround inside a loop still piles up contexts, one set per iteration. And the interpreter on its own still reaches matchLimit on these inputs, so the new test is skipped where the JIT is off.

15. CallData::Type is word-sized

CallData starts with a one-byte Type and seven bytes of padding. JSC::call() builds one on the stack, so callData.type = Type::JS compiles to movb $0x2,-0x40(%rbp): a one-byte store into whatever an earlier call wrote to that slot. If that was the address of a cell, its low byte changes, and the word now points into the first cell of the same 256-byte range. Conservative scanning accepts interior pointers, so it marks that cell.

Bun ran into this in test/js/bun/gc/a-failed-stream-is-collected.test.ts (oven-sh/bun#44833). The prologue of Interpreter::executeCall() saved a register with the address of the function that drains process.nextTick(), 0x…76bc0. Later calls from the event loop ran 0x30 bytes deeper, JSC::call() put its CallData on that slot, and the word became 0x…76b02, which is inside a stream's write callback, allocated six cells earlier. The event loop calls back at the same depth every time, so nothing overwrote the word, and the stream was never collected.

With a breakpoint after the movb that changes nothing, the stream survived in 33 of 60 runs. With the same breakpoint setting the whole word to 2, it survived in 0 of 60. In release builds of Bun without and with this commit, run in alternating blocks of 100 on a loaded machine, it survived in 37 of 1,000 runs and in 0 of 1,000.

enum class Type : uintptr_t turns the store into a movq. sizeof(CallData) is still 24. All 215 uses of CallData::Type in JavaScriptCore are comparisons, assignments and case labels, and no assembly or JIT code reads the field.

The two bools of native share a word with js.scope, and they are still one byte each. They are 0 or 1, so a stale pointer under them becomes an address in the first 0x102 bytes of a 64 KB-aligned block. That is inside MarkedBlock::Header, and MarkedBlock::isAtom() rejects every atom before m_startAtom.

16. Interpreter::executeCall reserves no stack for bound functions

executeCall() inlines executeCallImpl() twice, and LTO also inlines executeBoundCall(), with its MarkedArgumentBuffer and a third copy. Every call from native code into JavaScript has this frame on the stack, and a plain call writes less than half of it. Conservative scanning reads the rest with whatever earlier calls wrote there. An event loop calls back at the same depth every time, so nothing overwrites such a word.

Measured in an x86-64 build of Bun, by filling the frame with a pattern after the prologue and reading it back at call vmEntryToJavaScript:

	Before	After
Frame	392 bytes	216 bytes
Local words	43	21
Never written by a call of a plain JavaScript function	23 (184 bytes)	1 (8 bytes)

The word of section 15 was in one of those gaps in setImmediate turns (rbp-0x80). With that fixed, a build of oven-sh/bun#44833 with other frame sizes failed the same test through two more gaps: a stale pointer to the stream's native handle, at rbp-0xf8 in callbacks of process.nextTick() and at rbp-0x178 in callbacks of setImmediate(). Filling the frame with the pattern got the stream collected in the next turn.

Starting every thread 5 ms late makes the race in that test deterministic. With 8 allocation offsets, the JIT on and off, and 40 runs each, the stream survived in 640 of 640 runs before this commit and in 0 of 640 after it.

All handling of bound functions is now in executeBoundCall(), which is NEVER_INLINE, as enterNativeFunctionUnderValidation() already is for this reason. A call of a bound function without bound arguments from native code costs one more call.

Testing

• JSC stress tests pass in this repo's CI on the amd64 and arm64 LTO builds.
• Bun's test suite passes on every platform against this branch (bun test: Vitest compatibility bun#44833).
• Mocks behind barrels, against Vitest 5.0.3. A generator writes random module DAGs (export *, export { a as b } from, overlapping names) with no ambiguous name, then mocks about a third of the modules with a sync factory, an async factory or importOriginal. One test file per graph records every module's namespace and every import { name } binding, including names that don't exist. Over 800 graphs and 19,886 values, Bun matches Vitest on 799 graphs, with and without --isolate. Without the three export * rules and getReexportedLiveExport(), 543 of the 800 test files fail to link. The graph that differs has its own export { c } from that finds nothing next to an export * that has a c: resolveExportImpl's IndirectFallback picks the star, and Vitest keeps the undefined. The generator's importOriginal factories keep every name of the original. The names of such a mock are fixed at link time, before the factory can run. So a name it adds isn't re-exported by export *, and a name it leaves out is still re-exported, as undefined, and shadows a later export * that has it. Bun's docs list both as differences from Vitest.
• Writes to a mocked module, against Vitest 5.0.3. Assignment, Object.assign, Object.defineProperty, a new property, vi.spyOn and delete, on the object from vi.importMock(), import * as and import(), each followed by a read through another module's import binding. All 18 results match, with and without --isolate. So do 14 results of writes with another receiver (7 before the receiver was looked at). With a source that inherits from the record's own namespace object, the writes that walk the prototype chain throw a RangeError, also with the JIT off and with exception-check validation. 200,000 deletes of a missing name, then 200,000 rounds of write, read, delete and in at the same sites, give no wrong result by default, without the DFG, without the FTL, with all thresholds scaled by 0.02 and with exception-check validation. With the caller's DeletePropertySlot passed on, as in e07ed4a9, every one of those deletes is a cached miss that deletes nothing.
• Star-export resolution (on 19e25e38, before the rules above). A generator writes random module graphs: 3 to 30 modules joined by export *, with name collisions, renames, export * as, defaults and cycles, about 40% of them live. It imports every module as a namespace and every name as a binding. Over 720 seeds the output matches a build where resolveExport() is the only authority, and the debug assertion never fires. With the second walk disabled, the assertion fires on the first graph.
• JIT configurations. Four test sets (bindings, exotic-object operations on the namespace, a top-level-await cycle, live and ordinary imports of the same source) pass under eight configurations: no JIT, LOL, no lazy module function declarations, bytecode optimizer with validation, type and control-flow profilers, forced IC failure, no lazy executables, low FTL thresholds. 42 seeds of the generator also pass with a GC every 7 slow-path allocations.
• [[HasProperty]] before [[Get]]. 15 trap behaviors (throwing, lying, deleting or adding the name, defining it on the global, removing the Proxy, running a program that declares globals, reading another global, GC, revoking) × 12 kinds of read, each in a loop of up to 20,000 iterations. Ten configurations: default, no JIT, Baseline only, no FTL, all thresholds scaled by 0.02 without concurrent compilation, three of those again with exception-check validation, and a GC every 7 and every 23 slow-path allocations. No assertion or crash. Compared with Node 26.3 cell by cell, 175 of the 180 agree without the DFG and 167 with it. With [[HasProperty]] asked after [[Get]], as in the earlier heads, it was 157, and no cell that agreed then differs now. Of the 5, four are the receiver that a getter on the Proxy's target sees, which this PR doesn't touch, and one is a transitional state inside with. The others are the DFG difference described above.
• jsdom and node:vm. Bun's new node:vm tests pass (none did before). An 18-probe script on the newest jsdom prints what Node prints. The missing-global cases match Node for both kinds of vm context, including a 300,000-iteration loop.
• Cost of the star walk. import * as of a barrel of modules with 10 names each, release builds of Bun. The machine was loaded, so the times are noisy. With no live record, the whole process's instruction count is within 2.6% of a build without this PR.

export * count	No live record	Live record, before the single-pass fix	Live record, now	Live record with its own export *, now
100	10 ms	62 ms	10 ms	15 ms
300	29 ms	172 ms	33 ms	34 ms
1,000	126 ms	3,834 ms	93 ms	137 ms

• A correction, Oct 17. The numbers that stood here for the random patterns were far too high. The generators drew from seed = (seed * 1103515245 + 12345) & 0x7fffffff. In JavaScript that product isn't exact, and the sequence falls into a cycle after a few hundred patterns. The "2,000 patterns" of commit 5 were 567 different ones. Of the "34,000 patterns" of commits 8 and 10 to 12, the 23,100 whose lists are left were 123 different ones. Every campaign below was run again with mulberry32, on the heads of Oct 17, with the last seeds of each on a62268b4. The head differs from that by the two notes at the end of History. Each driver now prints how many different patterns it ran. A pattern that V8 doesn't finish quickly is dropped.

• Commit 5, the claim itself, on V8. A generator writes random X (nested groups, every quantifier, classes) with random text before and after the group, and compares (?:X)+ with (?:X)* on about 125 short strings, with exec() and with match() and the g flag. 25,094 patterns over 6 seeds, including {2,}, {3,} and a group nested in another repeated group: no difference in 6,282,125 comparisons. Each excluded case differs 28,000 to 346,000 times in the same generator: non-greedy, a maximum, a capturing group, a capture inside, empty only through an assertion, never empty.

• Commit 5, before against after. Another generator writes patterns around this shape, with captures, back references, lookaheads, lookbehinds and assertions. For each pattern and each of i, u, y and no flag it records exec, test, match, replace, search and split on 46 8-bit and 16-bit strings. 8,189 patterns: the head with the JIT, the head with --useRegExpJIT=0 and V8 give the same results. The jsc before these commits differs on one: /(?:(.{2}|( *A{1,} {2}|)[ab]+){2,}?[^a]\s{2}|(?:(?:|){2,}|){2,}[^a]*?(?:||()\3{0,2}é+))*(?=b)/ finds nothing in "AbéB" there, with and without the JIT, where V8 and the head match "A".

• Commits 5 and 6, JIT configurations. The two new stress tests pass with no FTL, no DFG, no JIT, eager compilation, low tier-up thresholds without concurrent compilation, --validateGraph=1 --validateBytecode=1, a GC every 13 slow-path allocations, and no RegExp JIT. They also pass before these commits and on V8, because nothing observable changes. Bun's tests check the optimizations themselves: that no interpreter bytecode is compiled for such a pattern, and that the DFG graph has a HasOwnProperty node.

• Commits 8 and 10 to 12, against V8, the JIT before them and the interpreter. Two generators write patterns around these shapes. One puts repeated groups with several alternatives in front of something that can fail, inside each other, and in lookbehinds. The other puts them in tail position, with single-character alternatives, classes, inverted classes and escapes. A pattern that takes V8 more than 8 ms is dropped. Each pattern is compiled with no flag, i, u and y, and what exec, test, match with g, replace, search and split give on about 50 strings of up to 8 characters is recorded. 17 seeds, 25,117 patterns, 100,000 regular expressions: no difference between V8, this branch with the JIT, this branch with --useRegExpJIT=0, and the JIT before every commit here.

• A positive control for that. The first push of commit 8 (a2e54822) had a memory-safety bug, described under commit 8. The first generator finds it, and the new stress test crashes on it.

• Commits 8 and 10 to 12, stress tests. regexp-repeated-group-saves-the-alternative-that-matched.js and regexp-greedy-group-in-tail-position.js have 874 lines of patterns with the results V8 gives. They pass with and without the RegExp JIT, before these commits too (nothing changes but the speed), and on ARM64 in CI.

• One failure in CI on an earlier head (75994819): stress/sampling-profiler-line-column.js in ftl-eager, 1 of about 120,000 runs. It uses no regular expression. Run 250 times on a loaded machine it fails 11 times at commit 10 and 9 times at commit 12, with no samples collected. The head's run has no failure.

• What a large pattern costs to compile, commits 5, 8 and 10 to 14. 31 shapes, each at 250, 1,000, 4,000 and 16,000 repetitions, compiled and run once on an input that fails at once, against the jsc before every commit here: many alternatives (capturing, named, lazy, counted, with inner loops, with back references, with lookarounds), in and out of tail position, nested groups, groups and lookarounds one after another, many body alternatives, wide, inverted and \p{} classes, characters and classes mixed, i and u. Counted in instructions retired at 16,000, 28 of the 31 are within 6% of what they took or below it. The other three are at 1.16 to 1.43 there, and within 4% at 2,000, 8,000, 32,000 and 64,000. (?:(?:…a?)+)+ nested 2,000 deep takes 3 ms, where it took 2.2 s. This is what found the bound of commit 8, and that of commit 11 before the review did.

• Commits 11 and 12, around the bounds. A generator writes alternations of 10 to 2,500 characters and small classes whose sizes fall around 1,024 entries and around the end of the budget, with and without literals between them, and groups of a few classes of 100 to 800 entries. The code points come from a window, so that they fall before, inside, next to and after each other's ranges. Four flag sets, 25 inputs made of members and others. 6 seeds, 848 patterns: no difference between V8, the JIT, --useRegExpJIT=0 and the jsc before every commit here, on every line that all of them finished. A few of these patterns backtrack for a minute on a string of 17 characters, as long before these commits as after, and 5 s in V8. A run stops at 400 s, so 3,183 of the 3,389 lines were compared on V8 and both JITs, and 2,792 on the interpreter too.

• Commits 8, 11 and 12, stress tests for the bounds. regexp-repeated-group-with-many-alternatives.js, regexp-many-single-character-alternatives.js and regexp-tail-loop-with-many-alternatives.js check what matches below each bound, at it and far above it. Without the bounds the first took 15 s with four groups of 24,000 alternatives, and the third didn't end in 100 s with a loop of 25,000. They now have 16,000 and 12,000, and run in about 0.1 s.

• appendDifference(). The same algorithm written out in JavaScript agrees with a brute-force difference on 400,000 random pairs of tables, with matches inside ranges in the excluded one. Three deliberate mistakes in it each give over 160,000 wrong answers.

• Commit 14, against V8, the JIT before it and the interpreter. A generator writes lookarounds that hold repeated groups, at the top of a pattern and inside other repeated groups, with back references, several body alternatives, and a tail that fails at most start positions. Half of the patterns have one way to match and get inputs of up to 210 characters. The other half are ambiguous and get inputs of up to 12. Five flag sets (i, u, y, m, none), with exec, test, replace, matchAll, and exec from the middle for y. 19 seeds, 28,485 patterns, 26,004 of them with a lookaround. The first 8 seeds ran on a build that frees the contexts in every pattern that has them, which asks more of the argument above.

  • Before and after differ on one pattern, which is this bug: on 205 characters the JIT before answers null after 230 ms, as the interpreter does. The JIT after finds the match in 13 ms, as V8 does.
  • Three patterns differ from V8 on every jsc, with and without the JIT. The one that was reduced: /(?<=((?:b|ab|(a)b)+))$/.exec("ab") captures "b" here and "ab" in V8. Going backwards, b is tried first and matches, and no second iteration can. The other two have the same b|ab in a lookbehind.

• Commit 14, stress test. regexp-lookaround-releases-paren-contexts.js has 10 patterns whose only match comes after 1,920 to 4,320 characters that fail: each kind of lookaround, g, u, i, several body alternatives, one that is only tried at the start, 16-bit input. All 10 return null before the commit. Each run of characters is a quarter longer than the shortest one for which that happens. An 11th pattern has a lookahead inside a repeated group, and checks that the groups outside the lookahead don't lose their captures. It matches before the commit too. V8 gives the same results.

• Commit 13. regexp-long-source.js compiles a pattern over 1 MiB made of long classes with lookaheads and backreferences, with giu and v, and checks what it matches. V8 gives the same matches. It also has a pattern for each way a class can start or end, and for each construct that makes a class count at its full length, at the start of the class and at the end. Two of them are also in an unterminated class. CI runs it in every JSC test configuration. Before that, sizeWithoutPlainCharacterClasses() was compiled standalone for 8-bit and 16-bit characters, and it agreed with a JavaScript port on 200,000 random patterns. The test passes on a build of this branch when that port computes the size, and fails with a port of either earlier version of the rule.

Not tested: test262, workers, the inspector.

History

Force-pushed on Oct 14 to squash six work-in-progress commits into these four, rebase them onto the WebKit commit Bun's main pins, and rewrite the comments. The code is token-for-token the same as the previous heads (19e25e38, then f45e1c67 after merging main), which the tests above ran on, except for seven renamed internal identifiers and one deleted unused helper (SyntheticSourceProvider::createWithLiveExports).

Force-pushed again later that day, with changes that came out of the review threads:

• Commit 1: the last two export * rules and getReexportedLiveExport().
• Commit 1: a BunTranspiledModule provider or a record of a prelinked graph with live exports is now a RELEASE_ASSERT. Bun never creates either, and the half-support for them is gone.
• Commit 2: [[HasProperty]] is asked before [[Get]], not after.

And once more that day: in commit 1, the namespace object of a live record forwards [[Set]], [[DefineOwnProperty]] and [[Delete]] to the source. Before, the first two failed as they do for any namespace object, and [[Delete]] only reported whether the source had the name. The first push of this (e07ed4a9) passed the caller's DeletePropertySlot to the source, which let the delete IC cache a stale answer. The next one (5857472e) fixes that. The one after it comes out of the review threads: [[Set]] looks at the receiver, and resolveImport() reports requestedModule for a prelinked importer of a live export too.

Two commits added later on Oct 14: 5 and 6. Commits 1 to 4 are unchanged.

Six commits added on Oct 15: 7 to 12. Commits 1 to 6 are unchanged. Commit 7 was first a template (see there), and commit 8 was first pushed with the bug described there. Neither of those heads was ever pinned by Bun.

Rebased later on Oct 15 onto 4556ec7c. #798 adds to SourceProvider.h and JSModuleLoader.cpp at the same places as the first commit here. Both additions are kept, and nothing else differs.

Oct 17: commit 14 added. Commits 8, 11 and 12 got bounds on what they can cost to compile, and tests for them: two found in review, one by timing large patterns, one by both. What they generate is unchanged. Commits 9, 10 and 13 have new parents, and commit 10 carries commit 8's three changed lines. They are otherwise unchanged. Later that day, from two notes in review: commit 1 no longer reads a re-exported live export to list keys, and commit 8 compiles with ENABLE(YARR_JIT_ALL_PARENS_EXPRESSIONS) off. Every commit has a new hash for that. The numbers for the random patterns under Testing were corrected, as described there.

Oct 26: merged main twice to pick up the AOT work (#757 and #903, then 982277c9). The first merge had conflicts in five files, where live exports and AOT module records are checked in the same places. Both checks are kept, and a live record is never an AOT record. Tail loops are off in the YARR_FOR_IMAGE build of YarrJIT. The second merge had no conflicts. Commit 13's rule was replaced, in two follow-up commits (see section 13). Four small commits came out of review: resolveExport() pushes an AOT module's export * targets as QueryViaStarExport, so a live record behind an AOT barrel only claims the names it declares. mergeSingleCharacterAlternatives() restores m_isLastAlternative, the Function.prototype.call test tells undefined from null, and some comments were reworded.

Oct 27: merged main again for the AOT follow-up #912. There were no conflicts. It changes three files that this PR changes, all in AOT-only branches, and its new code asks a module for a re-exported name by name, which is the right query for a live record. Four stress tests needed 300 to 760 ms, and JSTests/README.md allows 200. They now need 90 to 190 ms, and the two that fail on main still do, for every pattern. Merged main once more for #916 and #917, which change no file that this PR changes. Then merged fcc1ea09 (more AOT work). It had one conflict, in JSMicrotask.cpp: both sides add a block at the top of moduleLoadStep(), and both blocks are kept. Its other changes to files of this PR are AOT-only, and it calls no function whose signature this PR changes. Oct 28: merged main for #886 and #926, without conflicts. Its new RELEASE_ASSERT(!m_failureReason) isn't affected: this PR adds no failure reason. dropMinimumOfGroupsThatCanAlwaysMatchEmpty() now reports TooManyDisjunctions when it runs out of stack. It reported PatternTooLarge, which changed the error of a pattern nested 150,000 deep from a RangeError to a SyntaxError.

Oct 29: merged main at f495db1d and at 8c6c963e, both without conflicts. The first changes three files that this PR changes (JSMicrotask.cpp, JSModuleLoader.cpp, YarrJIT.cpp), the second only JSTests/BUN-TEST-DIFFERENCES.md, which now lists the nine stress tests this branch adds. Commits 15 and 16 added.

Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):

• 🔴 Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSObjectInlines.h — DOM-style code with a Proxy in the global's prototype chain reads a vanished global as undefined in DFG/FTL code while LLInt/Baseline throw ReferenceError. The new [[HasProperty]] check at JSObjectInlines.h:259 runs only in the get_from_scope slow paths. Once CommonSlowPaths.cpp:1490 sees the Proxy's has trap answer true the op becomes GlobalProperty, and DFGByteCodeParser.cpp:10735 compiles that to GetByIdFlush, which never asks has. Fix: make all four tiers agree for a global whose chain holds a Proxy, e.g. give the DFG GlobalProperty fallback the same hasProperty check. Partly pre-existing for ordinary prototypes; the base refused such programs.

  Why this was flagged

  Trigger: a global object whose prototype chain holds a Proxy (the PR's jsdom window case), and a hot function that reads the bare name foo. On first execution the LLInt op_resolve_scope slow path (Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/CommonSlowPaths.cpp:1488-1496) calls globalObject->hasProperty, the Proxy's has trap returns true, and metadata.m_resolveType is set to GlobalProperty; the slot is never cacheable, so metadata.m_structureID stays null. In LLInt/Baseline every later read takes the get_from_scope slow path and the new code at Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSObjectInlines.h:259-263 re-asks hasProperty, so after the element is removed foo throws a ReferenceError. When the function tiers up, Source/JavaScriptCore/dfg/DFGByteCodeParser.cpp:10717-10737 sees GlobalProperty with a null structure and emits GetByIdFlush on the global object, which only runs the Proxy's get trap and yields undefined with no ReferenceError. On the base branch ProgramExecutable.cpp:120-127 refused to start any program with such a chain, so neither behaviour was reachable.

  Verification: CommonSlowPaths.cpp:1488-1496: when the Proxy's has trap returns true, metadata.m_resolveType becomes GlobalProperty. The status.state() != Simple branch at DFGByteCodeParser.cpp:10731-10736 emits GetByIdFlush, a plain [[Get]] that never consults [[HasProperty]] and never throws ReferenceError. On the base branch all tiers consistently returned the get-trap value.

Walkthrough

Bun-specific live exports now flow through module creation, export resolution, property access, WebAssembly imports, and executable caching. Scope lookup paths use a shared property-slot helper. The changes also update Function.prototype.call and RegExp parsing, JIT compilation, and stress tests.

Changes

Live module exports

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Provider setup and module loading Source/JavaScriptCore/parser/SourceProvider.h, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/SyntheticModuleRecord.*, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSModuleLoader.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSMicrotask.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/AbstractModuleRecord.h	Source providers carry a live-exports flag, synthetic modules select live or read-once exports, and module loading caches resolved requests during graph loading.
Live export resolution and import bindings Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/AbstractModuleRecord.*, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSModuleRecord.*, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSScope.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/ModuleProgramExecutable.*	Module records resolve live exports by name and record live-export import metadata. Executable creation receives names of imports that resolve to live exports.
Live export property access Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSModuleEnvironment.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSModuleNamespaceObject.*, Source/JavaScriptCore/wasm/js/WebAssemblyModuleRecord.cpp	Module environments, namespace operations, and WebAssembly imports read or test live exports through their source objects.
Live imports and executable caching Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/CodeCache.*, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/ModuleProgramExecutable.*, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSModuleRecord.*	Executable cache keys include live-import names. Cache lookup and bytecode storage account for those names. Bun builds can configure the code-cache pruning limit.

Bun scope lookup

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Scope property lookup and cache epochs Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/CommonSlowPathsInlines.h, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/CommonSlowPaths.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/dfg/DFGOperations.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/jit/JITOperations.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/llint/LLIntSlowPaths.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/lol/LOLJITOperations.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/ProgramExecutable.cpp	Scope lookup call sites use a shared property-slot helper. Bun builds capture global lexical-binding epochs before scope resolution. The global prototype-chain proxy check is disabled in Bun builds.

Function.prototype.call

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Call implementation and validation Source/JavaScriptCore/builtins/FunctionPrototype.js, Source/JavaScriptCore/bytecode/BytecodeIntrinsicRegistry.h, Source/JavaScriptCore/bytecompiler/NodesCodegen.cpp, JSTests/stress/function-prototype-call-not-called-as-a-method.js	The call builtin uses direct invocation for short argument lists and argumentsFrom for longer lists. The test covers call forms, argument handling, errors, and large argument counts.

RegExp parsing and JIT

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Pattern size and compilation transformations Source/JavaScriptCore/yarr/YarrParser.h, Source/JavaScriptCore/yarr/YarrPattern.cpp, Source/JavaScriptCore/yarr/YarrPattern.h	Pattern-size checks account for plain character classes. Compilation adds character-class subtraction, single-character alternative merging, tail-loop marking, and empty-match minimum handling.
JIT frame contexts and terminal loops Source/JavaScriptCore/yarr/YarrJIT.cpp	The JIT tracks live frame slots, releases lookaround contexts, and routes terminal backtracking for tail-loop groups.
RegExp stress coverage JSTests/stress/regexp-*	Stress tests cover tail-position and empty-match groups, source-size limits, lookaround contexts, large alternative sets, and repeated-group behavior.

Priority: Normal

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 03984

A failed module load can reuse a stale resolution on retry, and some large Legacy regular expressions may be rejected. These are narrow issues, but they and the stress-test configuration violation warrant owner follow-up before or shortly after merge.

Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/AbstractModuleRecord.cpp:429-430
🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Resolve prelinked bindings by export name when the target has live exports.

A prelinked binding can name a local slot that differs from its export name. For example, export { foo as alias } gives this path foo, while the live source is read by alias in resolveExportByName (Lines 1190-1192). A prelinked import or re-export then reads the wrong live property. When target->hasLiveExports(), resolve importNameSid against the target instead of returning resolvedLocalSid. This pre-existing shortcut becomes incorrect for the new live-export mode.

[claude]

I reviewed the latest push and didn't find any new bugs. Because this is a large change to module resolution and linking that also compiles out the Proxy-in-global-prototype-chain check, a human look is still worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

• The reordered live claim in resolveExportImpl (now ahead of the resolveSet dedupe), the !m_prelinked assert in setHasLiveExports, and the second namespace walk that moves names below a live record to the resolveExport slow path; the debug spot-check against resolveExportImpl covers the cases I traced.
• The new get_from_scope wrapper in CommonSlowPathsInlines.h asks [[HasProperty]] before [[Get]] on all four slow paths (LLInt, Baseline, DFG, LOL), and tryCacheGetFromScopeGlobal still requires slotBase == globalObject, so a value found through the Proxy is never cached as GlobalProperty; the three resolve_scope slow paths that cache GlobalProperty read the epoch before the lookup.
• resolvedRequests is dropped on rejection in moduleLoadStep and in finishLoadingImportedModule, so a failed load asks the host again; dynamic import() payloads are not memoized.
• Non-Bun build: the unguarded members (liveImports, exporterHasLiveExports, FetchFromDisk) only reference unguarded declarations, and setWorkingSetMaxEntries is now inside the guard. The RELEASE_ASSERT on a null generator result for a live synthetic provider is an embedder contract, not a defect.

Extended reasoning...

The diff spans 25 files in Source/JavaScriptCore: live-export module records (AbstractModuleRecord, JSModuleEnvironment, JSModuleNamespaceObject, JSScope, JSModuleRecord, CodeCache keying by live imports), removal of the Proxy-in-global-prototype-chain TypeError in ProgramExecutable plus has-before-get on the get_from_scope slow paths, a configurable CodeCacheMap entry limit, and memoized static-import resolution in JSModuleLoader. The security-sensitive surface is the removed Proxy check, mitigated by own-property lookups during global declaration and the new [[HasProperty]]-first slow path, but it is a deliberate deviation from upstream. The bug hunt ran dry with no findings on this push, and the push changes several things earlier inline threads pointed at; still, several earlier threads remain open, the change is large and intricate, and no tests are included in this repo, which decided defer over approve.

I reviewed the latest push, including the new fifth commit, and didn't find any bugs; because this PR is large and removes a security check, a human look is still worthwhile. One thing for that reviewer: the new Yarr commit (618814f, compiling (?:X)+ as (?:X)*) is not under USE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS) and is not in the PR description, so the "four commits, no behavior change with the flag off" framing no longer covers everything on the branch.

What was reviewed

• YarrPattern.cpp rewrite: checked the equivalence conditions (greedy, unbounded, forward, no observable captures, assertions not treated as skippable) and that compile() checks the recursion-limit error after the pass; the new stress test fails by throwing and covers lookbehind, capture and assertion cases.
• Earlier threads on the CodeCache.h guard, the BunTranspiledModule live-exports path and resolvedRequests memo: current code guards the setter, RELEASE_ASSERTs the provider type, and clears the memo in finishLoadingImportedModule.
• Live-export resolution, namespace forwarding and the get_from_scope/resolve_scope slow paths in LLInt, Baseline, DFG and LOL: nothing new found this run.

Extended reasoning...

The diff is five commits, +1062/-47 across 27 JavaScriptCore files: live module exports (AbstractModuleRecord, JSModuleNamespaceObject, JSModuleEnvironment, CodeCache keying), removal of the Proxy-in-global-prototype-chain TypeError with new HasProperty-first get_from_scope slow paths in four tiers, a configurable CodeCache limit, static-import resolution memoization, and an ungated Yarr pattern optimization added in the newest push. It touches a security-relevant surface: the Proxy check removal lets proxy traps run during global declaration and scope resolution, and the Yarr change alters regex compilation for every build configuration. The bug hunt ran dry with no findings and the previously flagged compile guard and loader issues appear addressed in the current code, but the size, the security-check removal, the undocumented fifth commit, and the many author-resolved threads mean a human should still review rather than auto-approve.

[claude]

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline finding on the new stress test, I also checked the new @ argumentsFrom intrinsic (Source/JavaScriptCore/bytecompiler/NodesCodegen.cpp) for wrong rest-array sizing after an OSR exit when used more than once or beside a rest parameter — it lowers to op_create_rest, which carries its own skip count per emission, and its only user is the single call in Function.prototype.call, so this is not affected.

Extended reasoning...

The two commits pushed since the last review add a Yarr pattern rewrite for greedy groups that can match empty and a reworked Function.prototype.call built-in backed by a new argumentsFrom bytecode intrinsic; neither touches auth, crypto or input parsing surfaces beyond the regexp compiler. The one surviving finding is a test-budget nit, and the argumentsFrom candidate was ruled out from the single-use lowering to op_create_rest.

Code review found no issues

[claude]

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the new live-slot transfer in the YarrJIT commit for scratch-register clobbering: at ParenthesesSubpatternBegin regT0 (currParenContextReg) is dead once it has been stored into the new context's next pointer, and on the backtrack path newParenContextReg is reloaded from the popped context after restoreParenContext, so passing them as scratch2GPR is safe. The earlier non-Bun build concern in CodeCache.h is no longer present: setWorkingSetMaxEntries and the live-exports accessors now sit inside the USE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS) block.

Extended reasoning...

This run covers the eight commits in the range, with two new commits since the last review (the live-exports zero-cost gate and the YarrJIT live-frame-slot save). The ruled-out items are limited to the register allocation of emitLiveFrameSlotsTransfer's callers in Source/JavaScriptCore/yarr/YarrJIT.cpp and the guard placement in Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/CodeCache.h; the lookbehind mirrored-alternative issue remains as an inline finding.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline finding on CallData.h, I also checked the new word-sized CallData::Type for layout dependents: no offlineasm, JIT offset (OBJECT_OFFSETOF), or uint8_t cast in Source/JavaScriptCore reads the field by its old one-byte size, and sizeof(CallData) stays at 24 bytes, so the change is self-contained.

Extended reasoning...

Since the last review the branch gained a merge from main and one commit widening CallData::Type from uint8_t to uintptr_t in Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/CallData.h so that JSC::call's stack-built CallData overwrites a whole stale word rather than one byte of it. The only confirmed finding this run is the pre-existing sibling of that fix (the one-byte isBoundFunction/isWasm fields over the js.scope word), posted inline. The ruled-out check here was whether anything else in the engine depends on the previous one-byte layout; nothing does. The PR as a whole remains large and semantics-heavy (live module exports, Yarr JIT changes) with an incomplete timeline, so it is not a candidate for automated approval.

Still open from earlier reviews (1):

• Unresolved: 1 minor or pre-existing.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):

• 🟣 Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/CallData.h — pre-existing: A long-running Bun process can still keep a dead cell alive forever through a corrupted stale stack word, by the same mechanism commit 2957847 fixes for type. CallData.h:53-54 keeps isBoundFunction and isWasm as one-byte fields over the word that js.scope (CallData.h:58) occupies, so a Native CallData written into a slot that last held a JS CallData changes only the low two bytes of a JSScope pointer and leaves a word that conservative scanning marks as another cell. Fix: make a fresh CallData write all 24 bytes, for every getCallData producer (24 sites), e.g. initialize the union in the CallData() constructor (js = { nullptr, nullptr } or zero-fill) or make the two bools word-sized like type.

  Why this was flagged

  An event loop calls JSC::call (CallData.cpp:53) at one stack depth for a JS function, which writes a JSScope* into js.scope at offset 16 of the CallData slot (CallData.h:58). A later call at the same depth for a host function runs JSFunction::getCallDataInline (JSFunctionInlines.h:316-319): it writes type, function, and then two one-byte stores isBoundFunction at offset 16 and isWasm at offset 17; the other six bytes of that word keep the stale JSScope pointer. ConservativeRoots::genericAddPointer (ConservativeRoots.cpp:161-214) takes MarkedBlock::blockFor of that word and, if the block is in the heap set, cellAligns and marks the live cell there, so the first cell of that block stays alive in every collection as long as the slot is not overwritten. Commit 2957847 fixes exactly this for the type byte but leaves the sibling byte fields; on the base branch the same happens through either field, so this is pre-existing. Nothing clears the union: CallData() at CallData.h:49 initializes only type.

  Verification: pre-existing; commit 2957847 fixes this only for type. CallData.h:53-54 put isBoundFunction at offset 16 and isWasm at 17, over js.scope (line 58); CallData() { } (line 49) leaves the union uninitialized. JSFunctionInlines.h:315-322 makes two one-byte stores there, leaving (scope & ~0xFFFF) plus a small offset on the stack, and ConservativeRoots.cpp:161-214 marks the first live cell of that block in every collection.
