a24d627598 Extract extensions to a separate directory.
Remove extensions from the external reference table. They should never
be part of the serialized code.

Create extensions/experimental subdirectory for experimental
extensions not officially supported by V8.

f386f97476 Move part of scanner.* into scanner-base.* for reuse in preparser scanner.
Make checks.h not depend on flags.h or global.h (or anything else except
include/v8stdint.h). Only checks.cc has the dependencies (so another
implementation of checks.cc can be provided by the preparser).
Now files depending on checks.h (using ASSERT macros) can include it
directly without depending on all of v8.

decd0fed78 CPU profiler: make code events handling scalable.
I changed the implementation of a queue between the VM and processor
thread to be unbounded and lock-free, using Herb Sutter's example from
DDJ article: http://www.ddj.com/high-performance-computing/210604448
This had brought back profiling overhead to a minimum for the page
from Chromium's issue 16184.

fa7c92eaf5 First step towards making JumpTarget work on ARM. Instead
of having a list of virtual frame pointers in the jump
target we have one virtual frame, which is the frame that
all have to merge to to branch to that frame.  The virtual
frame in the JumpTarget is inside the JumpTarget, rather than
being an allocated object that is pointed to.  Unfortunately
this means that the JumpTarget class has to be able to see
the size of a VirtualFrame object to compile, which in turn
lead to a major reorganization of related .h files.  The
actual change of functionality in this change is intended
to be minimal (we now assert that the virtual frames match
when using JumpTarget instead of just assuming that they do).

dbe99e405a Introduce number type information in the virtual frame.
Each frame element gets a new attribute with number type information. A frame element can be: 

- smi 
- heap number 
- number (i.e. either of the above) 
- or something else. 

The type information is propagated along with all virtual frame operations. 
Results popped from the frame carry the number information with them.

Two optimizations in the code generator make use of the new 
information: 
- GenericBinaryOpSyub omits map checks if input operands are numbers. 
- Boolean conversion for numbers: Emit inline code for converting a number (smi or heap number) to boolean. Do not emit call to ToBoolean stub in this case.

339e49c0b2 Added first support for tracking locations of expressions in the
fast-mode code generator.

AST expression nodes are annotated with a location when doing the
initial syntactic check of the AST.  In the current implementation,
expression locations are 'temporary' (ie, allocated to the stack) or
'nowhere' (ie, the expression's value is not needed though it must be
evaluated for side effects).

For the assignment '.result = true' on IA32, we had before (with the
true value already on top of the stack):

32  mov eax,[esp]
35  mov [ebp+0xf4],eax
38  pop eax

Now:

32  pop [ebp+0xf4]


======== On x64, before:

37  movq rax,[rsp]
41  movq [rbp-0x18],rax
45  pop rax

Now:

37  pop [rbp-0x18]


======== On ARM, before (with the true value in register ip):

36  str ip, [sp, #-4]!
40  ldr ip, [sp, #+0]
44  str ip, [fp, #-12]
48  add sp, sp, #4

Now:

36  str ip, [fp, #-12]

f74e723599 Initial infrastructure for fast compilation of top-level code. The
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.

The code generated for 'true' is:

 0  push ebp
 1  mov ebp,esp
 3  push esi
 4  push edi
 5  push 0xf5cca135             ;; object: 0xf5cca135 <undefined>
10  cmp esp,[0x8277efc]
16  jnc 27  (0xf5cbbb1b)
22  call 0xf5cac960             ;; code: STUB, StackCheck, minor: 0
27  push 0xf5cca161             ;; object: 0xf5cca161 <true>
32  mov eax,[esp]
35  mov [ebp+0xf4],eax
38  pop eax
39  mov eax,[ebp+0xf4]
42  mov esp,ebp                 ;; js return
44  pop ebp
45  ret 0x4
48  mov eax,0xf5cca135          ;; object: 0xf5cca135 <undefined>

abc0bd46f6 Add initial version of retainers heap profile.
The profile is taken together with constructors profile. In theory, it
should represent a complete heap graph. However, this takes a lot of memory,
so it is reduced to a more compact, but still useful form. Namely:

 - objects are aggregated by their constructors, except for Array and Object
   instances, that are too hetereogeneous;

 - for Arrays and Objects, initially every instance is concerned, but then
   they are grouped together based on their retainer graph paths similarity (e.g.
   if two objects has the same retainer, they are considered equal);

3a472fada8 Basic infrastructure for fast two-pass compilation. A CFG is
generated in one-pass from the source AST, code is generated from the
CFG.  Enabled by the flag --multipass and disabled by default.

Rudimentary and currently only supports literal expressions and return
statements.  There are some other known limitations (e.g., missing
support for tracing).

9e8216ef22 Introduce first approximation of constructor heap profile for JS objects.
It is activated with '--log-gc' flag.

JS object size is calculated as its size + size of 'properties' and 'elements' arrays, if they are non-empty. This doesn't take maps, strings, heap numbers, and other shared objects into account.

As Soeren suggested, I've moved ZoneSplayTree from jsregexp to zone, and removed now empty jsregexp-inl header file.

e48095b87c Implement a dynamically growing memory log buffer with an upper limit.
The goal of this change is to allow longer profiling sessions and preserve memory when profiler isn't started. The buffer starts with 64K and grows until it reaches the upper limit, which is currently set to 50MB --- according to my evaluations, this is enough for at least 20 minutes of GMail profiling. As we're planning to introduce compression for the profiler log, this time boundary will be significantly increased soon.

To make possible unit testing of the new component, I've factored out Logger's utility classes into a separate source file: log-utils.h/cc. Log and LogMessageBuilder are moved there from log.cc without any semantical changes.

f4778b007f Reduce the memory used by frame elements from two words to one by
encoding the values in one word and by using an indirection table for
handles.

This reduces compilation time by roughly 10% and we should be able to make the slow case equality checking of frame elements faster as well.

a470847226 Added better version information
The current version is now held in src/version.cc in a number of defines which needs to be modified when changing version.

The following defines make up the version information:

  MAJOR_VERSION
  MINOR_VERSION
  BUILD_NUMBER
  PATCH_LEVEL
  CANDIDATE_VERSION

The first four are numbers and the fifth is a boolean. Besides these five the define

  SONAME

can be used to set a specific soname when building the a shared library (see below). This will most likely be used on stable branches where binary compatibility is ensured between different versions. This define is a string.

This version information is now read by the SCons build to support setting the soname for a Linux shared library. This requires passing the option soname=on to the SCons build.

When soname=on is specified the soname for the shared library can be set in two different ways. Either it will be the full versioned library name (e.g. libv8-1.2.2.so) or a specific soname defined in src/version.cc. Whenever a shared library is build with an soname the filename of the library will hold the full version name (e.g. libv8-1.2.2.so).

I did not update the xcode project with the new files.
