Closes #11635

Root cause: a codegen register holder, not a side table

Expr::RegisterFunctionPrototypeMethod (F.prototype.x = v, including the aliased var proto = F.prototype; proto.x = v form, for a function declaration F) lowered F first and then lowered v, and passed F's register to js_register_function_prototype_method. When v is a call that collects, an evacuating minor inside it moves the closure while the register still holds the from-space address.

In moment 2.31.0 this is proto.toIsoString = deprecate('...', toISOString$1) at module init, with proto = Duration.prototype. Duration is a function declaration in the UMD factory, captured by nested functions, so it lives in a box. Its value comes from js_box_get_bits and no root slot can re-derive it. I confirmed this in gdb on seed 3: the faulting call's func argument was spilled to -0x4f0(%rbp) above js_closure_call2 (the deprecate call), and its name operand is "toIsoString". Under native RS4GC lowering the value is a double, not an addrspace(1) pointer, so the statepoint never relocates it.

Fix (crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/static_field_meta.rs): the arm now uses with_rooted_group, the same way the neighbouring SetFunctionPrototype arm does. F is rooted across the value's lowering when that lowering can collect. The value is rooted across the registration call too, because that call is a Reenters entry and the value is the expression's result. Both are re-read below the window.

The FUNCTION_CLASS_IDS keying hazard

On main it is already handled. scan_class_side_table_roots_mut rekeys the table on evacuation (scan_function_class_id_keys_mut and rewrite_function_class_id_key_if_forwarded), and a seeded-key test covered it. I added test_function_prototype_registration_class_id_survives_a_move (gc/tests/copying_side_tables.rs), which goes through the real js_register_function_prototype_method entry. It registers, forces a copying minor, and asserts that the function moved. It then checks that a second registration and synthetic_class_id_for_function (the new F() path) through the moved address return the same class id, and that the pre-move method is still on that class. Sabotage: disabling both rekey paths turns it red (left: 3221225473, right: 3221225472, a fresh id), and the existing seeded-key test goes red with it.

Static checker

gc_root_dominance_check.py --stale-registers --moving-only already reported the shape on moment's IR (shadow lowering): 6 uses, all sink=js_register_function_prototype_method. It is only a budgeted ratchet, and --fatal-sinks did not count these uses (0) because the callee was not in RECEIVER_SINKS. I added register_function_prototype_method|get_function_prototype_method there, since both read the closure header. With that, --fatal-sinks ranks all 6. --self-test is OK.

The new witness is in the curated corpus (test_gap_gc_*), so the stale-register budget now covers this shape:

curated corpus, --stale-registers --moving-only --max-stale 2 main + witness this PR
stale uses 6 (4 × js_register_function_prototype_method), rc 1 2 (the existing store pair), rc 0

On both arms: dependency-scale stale = 10 (unchanged), curated dominance = 0 violations, curated --unrooted-allocas = 0.

Tests

  • Gap witness test-files/test_gap_gc_11635_func_proto_register_across_call.ts, registered in test-parity/gc_repsel_corpus.txt. It reproduces moment's shape: a boxed function declaration in a factory, an aliased prototype, and values from an allocating deprecate helper.
    • main: TypeError: a is not a function on the default arm, FORCE_EVACUATE, LOOP_POLLS+FORCE_EVACUATE and FORCE+VERIFY, SIGSEGV under FORCE+PROTECT_FROMSPACE, and 40/40 seeded runs fail.
    • fix: byte-identical to Node 26.5.1 on all of those arms, and 40/40 seeds pass.
  • Codegen unit test function_prototype_registration_roots_the_function_across_an_allocating_value (expr/computed_store_rooting_tests.rs). The function operand must be reloaded from a root slot below the value's allocation, with its store above it. Sabotage: it is red with the pre-fix lowering restored.

Validation (perrymaster, Linux x86_64, release with CODEGEN_UNITS=16, PERRY_NO_AUTO_OPTIMIZE=1, Node 26.5.1)

200-seed sweep at PERRY_GC_SCHEDULE_RATE=0.05 PERRY_GC_PROTECT_FROMSPACE=1, args 300 50. Each run is compared to Node's output (checksum).

workload main 295473c this PR
moment/parse_format (2.31.0) 22/200 fail (3 13 19 21 32 65 75 90 91 94 97 101 107 120 133 140 144 152 155 162 173 183, same as the issue) 0/200
qs/parse_nested (control) 0/200 0/200
dotenv/parse (control) 0/200 0/200

Subject was live: seed 3 ran 77, 92 and 94 copying minors respectively.

  • PERRY_GC_VERIFY_EVACUATION=1 over seeds 1–40 plus a FORCE_EVACUATE+VERIFY run: all three workloads match Node on both arms. VERIFY also passes on main for moment, because it cannot see a register holder.
  • Instructions (perf stat -e instructions:u, 10 interleaved runs):
    • moment module init only (args 1 0): +7,984 instructions (+0.004% median). That is ~155 registrations, each paying a temp-root store and reload.
    • moment full run: median +0.18%. Run-to-run spread is ~4% (24.9–25.9 G on main alone), so this is within noise. The change only touches module-init code.
    • qs/parse_nested: −0.009%.
  • RUST_TEST_THREADS=1 cargo test --release -p perry-runtime: 4707 passed, 1 failed. The failure is turnloop_net::tests::an_unresolvable_hostname_reports_enotfound_on_getaddrinfo ("a bogus name must fail: []"), which depends on host DNS. This PR's runtime change is test-only, so the library is identical to main.
  • cargo test --release -p perry-codegen: all pass.
  • RUSTFLAGS=-D warnings cargo check -p perry-codegen -p perry-runtime --all-targets (dev profile): clean.
  • Gap A/B vs pristine main (PERRY_SKIP_BUILD=1 PERRY_NO_AUTO_OPTIMIZE=1):
    • --filter test_gap_gc_: 57 → 58 pass.
    • --filter test_gap_class: 30 → 30.
    • --filter proto: 53 → 54.
    • The only difference is the new witness, which fails on main and passes here. The other non-passes are the same set on both arms.
  • cargo fmt --check and check_file_size.sh: clean.
  • run_lint_gates.sh (SKIP_COMPILE_GATES=1): 103 of 105 script gates passed, compile tier not run. The two failures are known: cargo xwin is not installed on this host, and public-baseline freshness is red on main. git diff was clean afterwards.

Not run

  • macOS/arm64 and Windows.
  • moment/diff_duration.
  • Full gap sweep (only the three filters above).
  • cargo test --workspace.
  • The native-lowering (--lowering native) corpus.
  • The gc_repsel_matrix.sh arms beyond the ones listed above.

The measurement mutex script named in the fix brief no longer exists on the host, so the instruction counts were taken without it (interleaved, 10 runs each).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fixed an issue where assigning methods to a function’s prototype could associate them with the wrong function if memory collection occurred during assignment.
    • Fixed cases where previously registered methods or function-related checks could fail after memory collection, including when assignments used values created by calls that allocate memory.
    • Improved reliability of prototype method assignments and subsequent use when memory collection occurs during allocation-heavy operations.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Function-prototype method registration now roots its function and method-value operands across value lowering and rereads them before registration. Regression tests cover allocating method values, closure movement, and function-class identity. The GC analysis tool classifies function-prototype registration and lookup as fatal sinks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 52499

The change addresses a stale-reference failure during function-prototype registration. The inspected code and regressions support the intended protection, and no new security boundary or attack path was identified. Validation remains limited to the examined paths.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The affected execution path is compiled function-prototype assignment when evaluating the method value can collect; the evidence does not establish an externally reachable attacker-controlled path or a broader deployment change.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The checker’s added sink names affect ranking of stale-reference reports, not runtime dispatch or a trust-boundary control.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Rooting and rereading address the stale closure operand before the runtime helper reads it, while the forced-move regression guards the related class-ID continuity invariant. These checks do not prove all execution and recovery cases.

Pushed 5a3e6bc, which lowers scripts/addr_class_ratchet_baseline.txt via addr_class_inventory.py --write-baseline. The diff only lowers counts, in 4 handle-floor files (array/generic.rs 4→3, child_process/registry.rs 1→0, date.rs 3→1, typedarray/mod.rs 5→4). This PR touches none of those files: pristine main 295473c reports the same stale baseline.

The gc-call-effects (macos-aarch64) job did not fail on table drift. It was cancelled after its build finished ("The operation was canceled" at 11m34s) and uploaded no artifact. The Linux and Windows tables regenerated by the same run are byte-identical to the committed ones. That is expected: this PR changes only codegen and test code, and the tables are derived from the linked runtime archive. So I committed no table refresh. The new push reruns the macOS job.

Assert the method value after registration.

js_register_function_prototype_method is classified as Reenters, and registration performs side-table and prototype updates after receiving the method value. The lowering rereads that value after the call, but the generated-code test checks only function operand 0. The witness uses the assignment as an expression statement, so it discards the returned method value. Its later method calls cover the stored side-table path, not the returned value.

Suggested fix
-  proto.a = deprecate("a", show);
+  const registeredA = proto.a = deprecate("a", show);
...
   out.push(d.a(), d.b(), d.c(), d.d());
+  out.push(registeredA.call(d));

Add a generated-code assertion that operand 3 is loaded from its root slot after js_register_function_prototype_method.

One triage pass over CI run 36449083258 and its sibling workflows on 5a3e6bc. I read every failing job's log. None of the failures is caused by this PR. Each one either shows the same failure on main or on unrelated PRs, or is a cancellation. The branch merges cleanly into current main (535e2f6). addr_class_inventory.py and check_test_registration.py both pass on the merged tree, so there is nothing to rebase or push.

cargo-test-perry 1–8/8: pre-existing, not one shared cause. Each shard fails a different integration test:

  • bun_module_url_aliases
  • async_hooks_lifecycle_regressions
  • camel_case_native_export_routes_to_ffi_symbol
  • issue_9619 handle_upgrade… and manual_upgrade…
  • real_fast_json_stringify_serializer
  • source_free_http_server_links_and_closes_in_both_modes
  • spread_push_is_iterator_correct_and_gc_safe_on_reused_destinations
  • write_end_callbacks_fire_in_flush_order_with_backpressure

The identical set fails on unrelated PRs' full-tier runs: 36465677226 (size/runtime-link-features) and 36463690664 (perf/s4-linear-liveness-estimator). Run 36461793664 (perf/arena-capture-boxes) shows the same set without the two issue_9619 tests. spread_push… also fails on main's cargo-test (schedule run 36498552021). Main's sweep and schedule tiers skip cargo-test-perry, so there is no main run of these shards to compare against.

parity shards 2/3/4/5/12: pre-existing. The NEW failures are:

  • test_turnloop_p6_smtp
  • test_dynamic_import_data_10104
  • test_parity_nanoid, test_parity_uuid, test_parity_validator
  • test_bun_plugin
  • test_issue_336_class_keys_collision
  • shard 5 flags the known-failures entry for test_issue_1120_fastify_buffer as stale

Every one of these also appears on 36465677226 or 36463690664.

compiler-output-regression and native-abi-evidence-packet: pre-existing. The PR's failed workloads are numeric_arrays, raw_numeric_object_fields and native_memory_fixture. Main schedule runs 36498552021 and 36530185797 fail those three plus h1_native_rep_equivalence. native-abi-evidence-packet fails only in its compiler_output packet step (the same native-abi-proof workload set) and in the report step that aggregates it.

lint: pre-existing. Only "Public benchmark evidence freshness" fails. Main's lint fails the same way in 36530185797. The addr-class ratchet is green since 5a3e6bc.

gc-moving-witnesses: pre-existing. The five NOTHING MOVED UNVER cells are identical on main schedule 36496786508 (11590_packed_loop_global_cache_rooting, call_argument_rooting, container_value_rooting ×2, string_suffix_cursor). This PR has PASS=59 against main's 58; the extra pass is the new test_gap_gc_11635 witness.

gc-ratchet: pre-existing. It shows the same regression table as main schedule 36496689576, for example 01_nursery_churn copied_objects 4,977 → 269.

native-roots-rs4gc (macOS, Windows) and gc-native-roots-complete: pre-existing. Main schedule 36435586318, at this PR's base 295473c, fails the same jobs with the same messages. On macOS it is the issue-8075-stdlib-provider link failure. On Windows it is "09_try_catch_roots compiled under RS4GC on Windows — the funclet refusal is gone".

Cancellations. The gap-suite shards and compile-smoke were cancelled. They are downstream of the failed PR tier, and main's runs cancel gap-suite the same way.

The two gap regressions on 7f85c4d (run 36571885695, test_gap_11499_class_object_static_write in shard 2 and test_gap_10480_define_property_generic_descriptor_accessors in shard 6) are pre-existing on main. This PR does not cause them.

I built main 41de9c5 and this PR's head 7f85c4d on perrymaster, each with its own target dir and a pinned PERRY_RUNTIME_DIR. Both tests diverge from Node 26.5.1 on both arms, and main's output is byte-identical to the PR's. Bisecting the class commits that just landed on main:

The symptom is that a static setter receives the class object as its value (static-read NaN instead of 20; set:class HasStatic {…} instead of set:1). Filed as #11669.
