As the start index is already passed it is easy to calculate the "at start" boolean in generated code. Also as direct entry has been implemented this needs to be done in generated code anyway, and therefore might as well be moved to the generated code for RegExp. The "at start" value is now calcualted as a local variable on the native RegExp frame based on the value of the start index argument.
The x64 version have been tested on both Linux and 64-bit Windows Vista.
For ARM I have tested cctest/test-regexp on ARM hardware, but the rest of the tests have only been run on the ARM simulator.

When a function is called with a value type as the receiver this is now boxed as an object.
This is a low-impact solution where the receiver is only boxed when required. For IC calls to the V8 builtins values are not boxed and as most of the functions on String.prototype, Number.prototype and Boolean.prototype are sitting there most IC calls on values will not need any boxing of the receiver.
For calls which are not IC calls but calls through the CallFunctionStub a flag is used to determine whether the receiver might be a value and only when that is the case will the receiver be boxed.
No changtes to Function.call and Function.apply - they already boxed values. According to the ES5 spec the receiver should not be boxed for these functions, but current browsers have not adopted that change yet.

Calls to RegExp no longer have to be via a call to the runtime system. A new stub have been added which can handle this call in generated code. The stub checks all the parameters and creates RegExp entry frame in the same way as it is created by the runtime system. Bailout to the runtime system is done whenever an uncommon situation is encountered or when the static data used is not initialized. After running the native RegExp code the last match info is updated like in the runtime system.
Currently only ASCII strings are handled.
Added another argument to the RegExp entry frame. It indicated whether the call is direct from JavaScript code or through the runtime system. This information is used when RegExp execution is interrupted. If an interruption happens when RegExp code is called directly a retry is issued causing the interruption to be handled via the runtime system. The reason for this is that the direct call to RegExp code does not support garbage collection.

The hash field still encodes the array index of the string if it has one. If an array index is encoded in the hash field the string length is added to the top bits of the hash field to avoid a hash value of zero.
On 32-bit this causes an additional 4 bytes to be used for all string objects. On 64-bit this will be half on average dur to pointer alignment.

In the generated code for function.apply there was a loop checking the stack limit for interruption. This loop would call into the runtime system to handle interuption and keep running until there was no interruption. However if the interuption was debug break the runtime system would never clear the interruption as debug break is prevented in builtins are prevented and the assumption here was that returning with the debug break flag set would move execution forward.
Renamed initial_jslimit and initial_climit to real_jslimit and real_climit. Renamed a few external references related to the stack limit as well.
Exposed the real stack limit to generated code to make the stack check when entering function.apply use the real stack limit and not the stack limit which is changed to signal interruption.

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.

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

On ia32 and x64 a single shared ToBoolean stub is used to convert a

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

This is very similar to the code previously generated except we do not
generate deferred code for the case where we call the runtime.
On ARM we use the stm instruction to make pushing the arguments more compact.

The alignment of new space has to match the alignment in the snapshot,
but the max committed amount of memory does not.
For now, we assume that the default semispace size is always used in a
snapshot.

specification under development. The optimizations are patterned after
those previously done for CanvasPixelArray. This CL adds all of the
necessary framework but continues to use the generic KeyedLoadIC and
KeyedStoreIC code, to create a baseline for benchmarking purposes. The
next CL will add the optimized ICs to ic-ia32.cc and ic-x64.cc.
These new CanvasArray types have different semantics than
CanvasPixelArray; out-of-range values are clamped via C cast
semantics, which is cheaper than the clamping behavior specified by
CanvasPixelArray. Out-of-range indices raise exceptions instead of
being silently ignored.
As part of this work, pulled FloatingPointHelper::AllocateHeapNumber
up to MacroAssembler on ia32 and x64 platforms. Slightly refactored
KeyedLoadIC and KeyedStoreIC. Fixed encoding for fistp_d on x64 and
added a few more instructions that are needed for the new ICs. The
test cases in test-api.cc have been verified by hand to exercise all
of the generated code paths in the forthcoming specialized ICs.

constant known at compile time. Do not ever use the stack to
materialize (non-function-argument) constants. Currently, constants
are only the non-materialized, non-function literals in the AST.
It is a known issue that there is no test coverage for the cases of
assigning a non-literal to a variable and returning a literal. Those
code paths are unreachable and tests will be added when they become
reachable.
For the code '.result = true', we had previously on ia32:
27 push 0xf5c28161 ;; object: 0xf5c28161 <true>
32 pop [ebp+0xf4]
Now:
27 mov eax,0xf5c26161 ;; object: 0xf5c26161 <true>

37 pop [rbp-0x18]

The generated code for ARM did not include the extra memory traffic.
It was already eliminated by the ARM assembler's push/pop elimination.

Slots appear only indirectly in the AST (through variables linked to
variable proxies). Slots are shared among variable references, so
putting compilation-time state on them is potentially a source of
bugs. Avoid it for now.

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):

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

while, and for loops.
Previously they were distinguished by a type field, which required
runtime asserts to avoid invalid nodes (since not all loop types have
the same internal structure). Now they C++ type system is used to
require well-formed loop ASTs.
Because they do not share compilation code, we had very large
functions in the code generators that merely did a runtime dispatch to
a specific implementation based on the type.

The calls to GenericBinaryStub can now pass the arguments in registers instead of on the stack. It is supported for ADD, SUB, MUL and DIV. The convention in GenericBinaryStub is not changed so the left operand is passed in edx and the right one in eax. When the stub contains smi code arguments are always passed on the stack as the smi code has to have left and right operands on eax and ebx, so moving from edx,eax to eax,ebx is not worth it and the smi code also trashes the registers so if arguments where passed in registers they would have to be saved on the stack anyway.
Added flags to disable the use of certain Intel CPU features to make it easier to test different code paths.

The construction of arrays when using the the Array function either as a constructor or a normal function is now handled fully in generated code in most cases. Only when Array is called with one argument which is either negative or abowe JSObject::kInitialMaxFastElementArray (which is currently 1000) or if the allocated object cannot fit in the room left in new space is the runtime system entered.
Two new native code built-in functions are added one for normal invocation and one for the construct call. The existing C++ builtin is renamed, but kept. When the normal invocation cannot be handled in generated code the C++ builtin is called. When the construct invocation cannot be handled in native code the generic construct stub is called (which will end up in the C++ builtin through a construct trampoline).
One thing that might be changed is preserving esi (constructor function) during the handling of a construct call. We know precisily what function we where calling anyway and can just reload it. This could remove the parameter construct_call to ArrayNativeCode and remove the handling of this from that function.
The X64 and ARM implementations are not part of this changelist.

This only wins us around 1% in performance, but it makes the code more
compact. We don't currently have a way to represent in the virtual

reason code continues in the generic constructor stub which in turn might pass

During parsing functions are analyzed for statements of the form this.x = ...;. These assignments are categorized in two types: simple and non simple. The simple ones are where the right hand side is known to be either a constant or an argument to the function. If a function only contains statements of this type the property names are collected and for the simple assignments the index of the argument or the constant value assigned are stored as well.
When the initial map for a function is created and the function consists of only this type of assignemnts the initial map is created with a descriptor array describing these properties which will be known to always exist in an object created from the function.
The information on this property assignments is not collected during pre-parsing so if compiling using pre-parse data these optimization hints are not available.
Next step will be to use the information collected for the simple assignments to generate constructor code which will create and initialize the object from this information without calling the code for the function.

Encode whether or not the stub should use sse3 instructions in the

will have sse3 disabled, but they will not be found when sse3 is
