This CL introduces a third mode next to the non-strict
(henceforth called 'classic mode') and 'strict mode'
which is called 'extended mode' as in the current
ES.next specification drafts. The extended mode is based on
the 'strict mode' and adds new functionality to it. This
means that most of the semantics of these two modes
coincide.
The 'extended mode' is entered instead of the 'strict mode'
during parsing when using the 'strict mode' directive
"use strict" and when the the harmony-scoping flag is
active. This should be changed once it is fully specified how the 'extended mode' is entered.
This change introduces a new 3 valued enum LanguageMode
(see globals.h) corresponding to the modes which is mostly
used by the frontend code. This includes the following
components:
* (Pre)Parser
* Compiler
* SharedFunctionInfo, Scope and ScopeInfo
* runtime functions: StoreContextSlot,
ResolvePossiblyDirectEval, InitializeVarGlobal,
DeclareGlobals
The old enum StrictModeFlag is still used in the backend
when the distinction between the 'strict mode' and the 'extended mode' does not matter. This includes:
* SetProperty runtime function, Delete builtin
* StoreIC and KeyedStoreIC
* StubCache

So far free variables references in eval code are not statically
resolved. For example in
function foo() { var x = 1; eval("y = x"); }
the variable x will get mode DYNAMIC and y will get mode DYNAMIC_GLOBAL,
i.e. free variable references trigger dynamic lookups with a fast case
handling for global variables.
The CL introduces static resolution of free variables references in eval
code. If possible variable references are resolved to bindings belonging to
outer scopes of the eval call site.
This is achieved by deserializing the outer scope chain using
Scope::DeserializeScopeChain prior to parsing the eval code similar to lazy
parsing of functions. The existing code for variable resolution is used,
however resolution starts at the first outer unresolved scope instead of
always starting at the root of the scope tree.
This is a prerequisite for statically checking validity of assignments in
the extended code as specified by the current ES.next draft which will be
introduced by a subsequent CL. More specifically section 11.13 of revision 4
of the ES.next draft reads:
* It is a Syntax Error if the AssignmentExpression is contained in extended
code and the LeftHandSideExpression is an Identifier that does not
statically resolve to a declarative environment record binding or if the
resolved binding is an immutable binding.

* Remove a couple of unused fields from the FunctionLiteral, ensure that all
the bools are packed.
* Rename SaveScope and LexicalScope in the parser.
* Use an enum to generate the numbers 0..N and the dependent count, rather
than static const ints. This is simpler to extend (coming in a future
change).

Previously the preparser always accepted natives syntax and let the
real parser throw the syntax error. In ES5, it should be an early error,
so the preparser must catch the error.
The perparser library does not expose parsing for natives syntax, it's

This change will ensure that full code with debug break slots is compiled and activated for all functions which already have activation frames.
This additional handling is only for functions which have activations on the stack, and that activation is of the full code compiled without debug break slots. In that case the full code is recompiled with debug break slots. It is ensured that the full code is compiled generating the exact same instructions - except for the additional debug break slots - as before. The return address on the stack is then patched to continue execution in the new code.
Also fixed SortedListBSearch to actually use the passed comparision function.

When creating a CompilationInfo we always have the script and can
determine if it is a natives script.
Now that all natives functions are recognized as such, many of them
are called with undefined as the receiver. We have to use different
filtering for builtins functions when printing stack traces.
Also, fixed one call of CALL_NON_FUNCTION to be correctly marked as a
method call (with fixed receiver). Now that CALL_NON_FUNCTION is
marked as a native function this caused the receiver to be undefined.

Lots of web pages have really frequently firing timers that keep the
profiler thread spinning if we require a period of JS inactivity
before suspending the profiler. While it's possible to throttle it by
increasing the sleep delay and adjusting the duration of the required
inactive period, it seemed much simpler to just stop it immediately on
exiting JS.
Stopping the profiler this way effectively turned off two optimization
heuristics: 1) eager optimization (it's reset on waking up the
profiler and now the profiler wakes up much more frequently) and 2)
optimization throttling based on JS to non-JS state ratio (the ratio
is now 100%). I removed these two heuristics and found no performance
regressions so far.

Optimized frames are now handled by the debugger. When discovering optimized frames during stack inspection in the debugger they are "deoptimized" using the normal deoptimization code and the deoptimizer output information is used to provide frame information to the debugger.
Before this change the debugger reported each optimized frame as one frame no matter the number of inlined functuions that might have been called inside of it. Also all locals where reported as undefined. Locals can still be reposted as undefined when their value is not "known" by the optimized frame.
As the structures used to calculate the output frames when deoptimizing are not GC safe the information for the debugger is copied to another structure (DeoptimizedFrameInfo) which is registered with the global deoptimizer data and processed during GC.

Only IA32 version for now. I'll start porting.
Strict mode functions are to get 'undefined' as the receiver when
called with an implicit receiver. Modes are bad! It forces us to have
checks on all function calls.
This change attempts to limit the cost by passing information about
whether or not a call is with an implicit or explicit receiver in ecx
as part of the calling convention. The cost is setting ecx on all
calls and checking ecx on entry to strict mode functions.
Implicit/explicit receiver state has to be maintained by ICs. Various
stubs have to not clobber ecx or save and restore it.
CallFunction stub needs to check if the receiver is implicit when it
doesn't know from the context.

While trying to fix Mac and Windows versions for this change:
http://codereview.chromium.org/6771047/, I figured out, that we
already store an isolate in StackFrameIterator, so we can use it in
frame objects, instead of requiring it from caller.
I've changed iterators usage to the following scheme: whenever a
caller maintains an isolate pointer, it just passes it to stack
iterator, and no more worries about passing it to frame content
accessors. If a caller uses current isolate, it can omit passing it
to iterator, in this case, an iterator will use the current isolate,
too.
There was a special case with LiveEdit, which creates
detached copies of frame objects.

The main issue was due to multiple recompilations of functions. Now
code objects are grouped by function using SFI object address.
JSFunction objects are no longer tracked, instead we track SFI object
moves. To pick a correct code version, we now sample return addresses
instead of JSFunction addresses.
tools/{linux|mac|windows}-tickprocessor scripts differentiate
between code optimization states for the same function
(using * and ~ prefixes introduced earlier).
DevTools CPU profiler treats all variants of function code as
a single function.
ll_prof treats each optimized variant as a separate entry, because
it can disassemble each one of them.

This change adds a pass over the AST that computes the
set of assigned variables for locals and parameters for each expression.
The result of this analysis is used to for two purposes:
1. Recognize variables that are trivial subexpressions. A left sub-expression
of a binary operation is trivial if it is a local variable or a parameter
and it is not assigned in the right sub-expression. In the case of a
trivial left sub-expression we evaluate the right first.
Currently only binary operations and compare operations are considered
when finding trivial left sub-expressions.
2. Recogize certain simple for-loops with a constant trip count where the loop
variable is always within smi range. If the loop count variable is not
assigned in the body of the loop (except in the update expression the
for-loop). This allows omitting smi checks on operation using the loop
count variable.

The flow graph is built by walking the AST. Edges are labeled with
instructions (AST nodes). Normal nodes have a single predecessor edge and a
single (labeled) successor edge. Branch nodes are explicit, they have a

nodes are explicit, they have a pair of predecessor edges and a single
(unlabeled) successor edge.

other Moves (eg, in the toplevel codegen, in the macro assemblers).
* Use the abstraction Drop rather than math on the stack pointer.
* Add a predicate on AST expression nodes to abstract a repeated test
whether we should us a regular (named) IC or a keyed IC.

1. Refactor the structure of VisitAssignment: The existing code is not ideal
to be extended with support for compound assignments.
2. Reuse common code for keyed property assigments: Now variables rewritten
to a property (.arguments access) are treated like normal keyed property
assignments. This allows us to remove some code duplication.

For scripts originating from a call to eval the Script object used to hold a reference to the function from where the eval was called together with the code offset within that function of the eval call. This is used by the stack trace and is part of the debugger protocol. In order to avoid storing the function the script, the position within the script and the name of the function calling eval is stored instead. This avoids holding context dependent objects in the script object.
The calculation of the position of the eval in the script holding the eval is now done when the eval script is compiled as it is not possible to postpone this unless a reference is kept to the generated code for the function calling eval.

This change re-allows non-lazy compiled function literals for top-level compilation.
There was a problem on ARM exposed through this change which was fixed as part of r3289
in fast-codegen-arm.cc (Threading and Threading2 tests failed)
It occurred before r3289 when we allocate a local context at the beginning of a function. The
code for the stack check was split up in an unintended way (load of stack check limit into r2,
and use of r2 in the actual stack check code).

We forgot resetting true-/false-label to NULL after evaluating the
condition expression in dowhile- and while-loops.
This change fixes this.
This causes an assertion to fail in VisitIfStatement whenever there is an
if-statement after a while-loop before. e.g. like in:
var i=0, j=0;
while(j<5) { j++; }
if (i ==0 ) { j++; }

context. Test contexts are used for the left subexpressions of
short-circuited boolean operators. The right subexpressions inherit
their expression context from the binary op expression.
Compilation of short-circuited operations in effect and test context
is straightforward:
effect(e0 || e1) =
test(e0, L0, L1)
L1: effect(e1)
L0:
test(e0 || e1, L0, L1) =
test(e0, L0, L2)
L2: test(e1, L0, L1)
Because the value of the first subexpression may be needed as the
value of the whole expression in a value context, we introduce a
hybrid value/test contest (the value is needed if true, but not if
false).
value(e0 || e1) =
value/test(e0, L0, L1)
L1: value(e1)
L0:
The compilation of value/test and test/value (introduced by boolean
AND) is:
value/test(e0 || e1, L0, L1) =
value/test(e0, L0, L2)
L2: value/test(e1, L0, L1)
test/value(e0 || e1, L0, L1) =
test(e0, L0, L2)
L2: test/value(e1, L0, L1)
Boolean AND is the dual. The AST nodes themselves (not their parents)
are responsible for producing the proper result (effect, value, or
control flow) depending on their context.

itself.
This allows an inherited code generation context from a parent node to
be passed arbitrarily far down the tree (eg, the subexpression of a
unary not is in the same context as the unary expression itself, the
then and else subexpressions of the ternary operator are in the same
context as the whole expression, and so forth).
We do not yet take advantage of this in the backend (eg, the right
subexpression of short-circuited OR is still compiled by using the
parent's destination location, rather than the subexpression's

Literals now have a location of temporary by default and are
responsible for moving themselves into their location like all other
expressions.
The constant location turned out not to allow us to avoid checking
subexpressions in AST interior nodes, and it turned out to require
checking after some normal calls to Visit (like for the arguments to a
call). With this change do not have to check after a call to Visit
that we got our result in the expected location.

I also added more unit tests for literals.
Right now, the fast compiler produces code very similar to
the existing code generator. We may consider different ways to
further compact the generated code for top-level code.
ARM always goes through a runtime function to initialize computed
properties in an object literal whereas IA32 and x64 use StoreIC.

in a non-test (ie, value or effect) context. (It is implicitly not in
a test context because the code generator does not support expressions
in a test context yet.)
Compilation is essentially the same as in the optimized code
generator. The expression (e0 || e1) is compiled as if it were
(let (temp = e0) temp ? temp : e1).
On ia32 and x64 a single shared ToBoolean stub is used to convert a
value to a flag. The inlined checks assumed by the stub are reordered
to compare to undefined (the common case in toplevel code?) first. On
ARM a call to the runtime is used. In the interest of code size no
checks are yet inlined on ARM.

cloned from a boilerplate object and the boilerplate objects are
lazily constructed.
Also changed argument pushing on ARM to use stm (store multiple),
which required changing the order of arguments to the runtime

Finally, changed the toplevel code generator so that stack pops to
discard a temporary became addition to the stack pointer on ia32 and

fast code generator is optimized for compilation time and code size.
Currently it is only implemented on IA32. It is potentially triggered
for any code in the global scope (including code eval'd in the global
scope). It performs a syntactic check and chooses to compile in fast
mode if the AST contains only supported constructs and matches some
other constraints.
Initially supported constructs are
* ExpressionStatement,
* ReturnStatement,
* VariableProxy (variable references) to parameters and
stack-allocated locals,
* Assignment with lhs a parameter or stack-allocated local, and
* Literal
This allows compilation of literals at the top level and not much
else.
All intermediate values are allocated to temporaries and the stack is
used for all temporaries. The extra memory traffic is a known issue.

If this fails for some reason code continues in the generic constructor stub which in turn might pass control to the runtime system.

Scripts now have a compilation type which can be host, eval or JSON. Host scripts are compiled through the API, eval scripts are compiled through call to evan and JSON scripts are compiled as a result of calling JSON.parse.
For scripts scripts compiled through eval the JavaScript function in top of the stack and the pc offset into the code is stored in the script object. This makes it possible to calculate the source position of the eval call later when requested. This information can be obtained through the script mirror object and is part of the script mirror JSON serialization for the debugger protocol.
Moved the enumeration ScripType into class Script and remamed to Type. The new compilation type enumeration is also inside the class Script.

The goal is to make possible having --prof flag always enabled in Chromium. Currently we can't do this because --prof causes compiler and gc to log code creations / moves / deletes which aren't needed until we start profiling. With LogCompiledFunctions it will be possible not to log anything until we start profiling. When started, the current map of compiled functions will be logged and compiler / gc logging will be enabled to update current state. When profling is stopped, logging will be turned off again.
