a54a4ada5c Changed the global object representation.The global object is now always in dictionary (slow) mode with each of its properties stored in a cell object. A cell object has one field containing the actual value for the property. Inline caches for access to global properties which uses direct to the cell are now created for load, store and call to properties of the global object. When properties of the global object are deleted the cell for that property is kept with an indcation of that the property is deleted.Added counters to track the use of the global property inline caches.Added additional information on IC's in the disassembler.

30a0a7de43 Split nested namespaces declaration in two lines in accordance with C++ Style Guide.
This issue was raised by Brett Wilson while reviewing my changelist for readability. Craig Silverstein (one of C++ SG maintainers) confirmed that we should declare one namespace per line. Our way of namespaces closing seems not violating style guides (there is no clear agreement on it), so I left it intact.

8dffcb9efa Flush ICs when adding setters to an object or setting a __proto__ to
an object that holds a setter.  If there are no store ics then no
flushing is done.  The implementation has been tweaked so that no ICs
are cleared during normal context creation.
This may cost us some performance but I'm submitting it as it is and
if there are problems we can either decide to be smarter about when,
what and/or how we clear, or back this change out altogether.

d131ecf3dd Changed the debugger API to allow only one debug event listener to be registered. The public API now only has SetDebugEventListener instead of AddDebugEventListener and RemoveDebugEventListener.
Moved the registrered debug event listener from the context to a global handle in the Debugger class. Storing it in the context did not make much sense.

Changed a lot of tests to handle the API change.

42ef2c3d77 Split window support from V8.
Here is a description of the background and design of split window in Chrome and V8:
https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/Doc?id=chhjkpg_47fwddxbfr

This change list splits the window object into two parts: 1) an inner window object used as the global object of contexts; 2) an outer window object exposed to JavaScript and accessible by the name 'window'. Firefox did it awhile ago, here are some discussions: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko:SplitWindow. One additional benefit of splitting window in Chrome is that accessing global variables don't need security checks anymore, it can improve applications that use many global variables.

V8 support of split window:
  There are a small number of changes on V8 api to support split window:
Security context is removed from V8, so does related API functions;
A global object can be detached from its context and reused by a new context;
Access checks on an object template can be turned on/off by default;
An object can turn on its access checks later;

  V8 has a new object type, ApiGlobalObject, which is the outer window object type. The existing JSGlobalObject becomes the inner window object type. Security checks are moved from JSGlobalObject to ApiGlobalObject. ApiGlobalObject is the one exposed to JavaScript, it is accessible through Context::Global(). ApiGlobalObject's prototype is set to JSGlobalObject so that property lookups are forwarded to JSGlobalObject. ApiGlobalObject forwards all other property access requests to JSGlobalObject, such as SetProperty, DeleteProperty, etc.

  Security token is moved to a global context, and ApiGlobalObject has a reference to its global context. JSGlobalObject has a reference to its global context as well. When accessing properties on a global object in JavaScript, the domain security check is performed by comparing the security token of the lexical context (Top::global_context()) to the token of global object's context. The check is only needed when the receiver is a window object, such as 'window.document'. Accessing global variables, such as 'var foo = 3; foo' does not need checks because the receiver is the inner window object.

  When an outer window is detached from its global context (when a frame navigates away from a page), it is completely detached from the inner window. A new context is created for the new page, and the outer global object is reused. At this point, the access check on the DOMWindow wrapper of the old context is turned on. The code in old context is still able to access DOMWindow properties, but it has to go through domain security checks.


It is debatable on how to implement the outer window object. Currently each property access function has to check if the receiver is ApiGlobalObject type. This approach might be error-prone that one may forget to check the receiver when adding new functions. It is unlikely a performance issue because accessing global variables are more common than 'window.foo' style coding.

I am still working on the ARM port, and I'd like to hear comments and suggestions on the best way to support it in V8.

70dcba4024 Exclude the bit-field bits from string hash codes. String hash codes
are always odd if the bit-field bits are included.

Modified a couple of debugger tests that relied on the ordering of
elements in descriptor arrays.  Descriptor arrays are sorted by
hash-code values, so the order changes if we change the hash code.

b5a72a1645 Generalized the EvalCache into a CompilationCache and enabled
it for scripts too. In the context of Chromium, this should 
have a very positive impact on memory consumption for web apps
that run multiple tabs from the same domain with a lot of the
same JavaScript code.

For now, the cache retirement policy is really simple:
Whenever a mark-sweep collection is started we clear the
cache. This guarantees that this change will not have a
huge negative impact on memory consumption, but it may
not be ideal. We should consider a more sophisticated LRU
scheme.

ebfa9d37b6 Added a EvalCache that caches eval'ed scripts and compiled function boilerplate.
The cache is a hashtable that takes String as key and JSFunction as the value.

Caches are cleared before mark-compact GC's.

Currently I don't put caps on cache size, string size, etc.

This cuts date-parse-totfe.js runtime by half.

388c1094b7 * Split up code_space into old_data_space and code_space.
* Make old_data_space non-executable on OSs and hardware that support it.
* Rename old_space to old_pointer_space (can contain pointers, esp. to new space).
* Ensure that individual pages allocated for old_space are only executable when
they are for code objects.
* Ensure Space::Setup can cope with non-aligned memory.
* Make some methods on Spaces virtual.  Make a way to iterate over all spaces.
* Replace executability flag with Executability enum in order to make intent at
call site clearer.
* Fix serialization/deserialization to allocate write barrier memory for large
arrays.

968facb9ff - Fixed issue when building samples and cctests on 64-bit machines.
- Fixed mozilla test breakage caused by python's obscure module
  loading rules.
- Made sure test.py propagates test failures out as the exit code of
  the script.
- Remove runtime calls to get number constants. Remove Heap roots for
  some special numbers.
- Fix typo in accessors.h.
- Changes CopyMap to not copy descriptors.  Adds
  CopyMapRemoveTransitions that copies non-transition descriptors.
  Changes interface of DescriptorArray::Copy operations to simplify
  them.

05bbf90b3a Changed shell sample to take flags directly from the command-line. Added api call that implements this.
Added better test support.

Added load, quit and version functions to the shell sample so it's easier to run benchmarks and tests.

31e7138e1a Improved performance of garbage collection by changing the way we use the marking stack in the event of stack overflow during full garbage collection and by changing the way we mark roots.
Cleaned up ARM version by removing top of stack caching and by introducing push/pop elimination.

Cleaned up the way runtime functions are called to allow runtime calls with no arguments.

Changed Windows build options to make sure that exceptions are disabled and that optimization flags are enabled.

Added first version of Visual Studio project files.

769cc962a0 Improved performance of unary addition by avoiding runtime calls.
Fixed the handling of '>' and '<=' to use right-to-left conversion and left-to-right evaluation as specified by ECMA-262.

Fixed a branch elimination bug on the ARM platform where incorrect code was generated because of overly aggressive branch elimination.

Improved performance of code that repeatedly assigns the same function to the same property of different objects with the same map.

Untangled DEBUG and ENABLE_DISASSEMBLER defines.  The disassembler no longer expects DEBUG to be defined.

Added platform-nullos.cc to serve as the basis for new platform implementations.

7276f14ca7 Changed all text files to have native svn:eol-style.
Added a few samples and support for building them. The samples include a simple shell that can be used to benchmark and test V8.

Changed V8::GetVersion to return the version as a string.

Added source for lazily loaded scripts to snapshots and made serialization non-destructive.

Improved ARM support by fixing the write barrier code to use aligned loads and stores and by removing premature locals optimization that relied on broken support for callee-saved registers (removed).

Refactored the code for marking live objects during garbage collection and the code for allocating objects in paged spaces. Introduced an abstraction for the map word of a heap-allocated object and changed the memory allocator to allocate executable memory only for spaces that may contain code objects.

Moved StringBuilder to utils.h and ScopedLock to platform.h, where they can be used by debugging and logging modules. Added thread-safe message queues for dealing with debugger events.

Fixed the source code reported by toString for certain builtin empty functions and made sure that the prototype property of a function is enumerable.

Improved performance of converting values to condition flags in generated code.

Merged disassembler-{arch} files.
