Untyped obj[i] element access on an ordinary Array no longer goes out of line for its common case.

Part of #10513
Part of #10514
Part of #10718

What changed

Instruction counts (qb2, perf stat -e instructions:u, two-N differential, PERRY_NO_AUTO_OPTIMIZE=1)

Both arms were built on qb2 from d57f5139f with an identical -p set. The base arm is a pristine worktree at d57f5139f.

Microbenches are the issue repros (per element op):

Package workloads use scripts/package_bench.py run --modes instr (instructions per iteration; Perry output byte-identical to Node 26.5.1 at both N):

The cost to typed arrays reached through any is +7 instructions per untyped store (the kind-cache compare that now precedes the Array arm), +3.4% on the synthetic u16any loop. The trade was deliberate: the alternative order cost Array stores ~20 instructions each.

Correctness

  • New gap test test_gap_10513_untyped_array_element_access.ts. It covers dense stores of every value kind, holes, growth through locals/fields/push, sparse writes past the end, OOB and non-canonical keys (negative, fractional, NaN, string, Symbol, 2^32−2), frozen/sealed/non-extensible arrays (strict throws), named props / accessors / read-only descriptors, Object.setPrototypeOf with an indexed setter on the chain, Object.setPrototypeOf(a, null), Array.prototype indexed-accessor pollution, typed arrays / SharedArrayBuffer views / ArrayBuffer views / Buffer through the same sites, arguments, and read-modify-write through a re-read grown field. It is byte-identical to Node 26.5.1 on base and on this PR: it guards the new tier and is not a fix-proof, since behaviour is unchanged.
  • Full gap sweep A/B on qb2 (1084 test_gap_*, base vs this PR, each against Node 26.5.1): no test differs between the arms. 32 network tests first showed DIFF on the branch arm only, from a missing libperry_ext_http.a in my arm plus fixed-port collisions in a parallel sweep. All 32 match when rerun serially with the ext archives built.
  • cargo test --release -p perry-codegen: all pass. Three IR-shape claim tests were updated for the new blocks (index_get_claim_tests block list 21→24; index_set_barrier_tests deref→deref.follow). One run showed a single failure in a 291-test suite that did not reproduce in 3 reruns.
  • RUST_TEST_THREADS=1 cargo test --release -p perry-runtime: pass.
  • GC:
    • scripts/gc_root_dominance_corpus.sh plus the checker in both gated modes (--moving-only with 40/40 seeded violations caught, and --unrooted-allocas): 0 violations. The corpus was extended with the gap test and the four microbenches.
    • Seeded GC stress (PERRY_GC_SCHEDULE_SEED ×5, PERRY_GC_SCHEDULE_RATE=0.2, PERRY_GC_SCHEDULE_ALLOC_KB=0, PERRY_GC_PROTECT_FROMSPACE=1, depth 64; the from-space quarantine was confirmed armed via retired_set=#N): the gap test and the any/am1/pushed benches match Node on every seed.
    • Pre-existing, not from this PR: the perf: reads of an Array grown by a[i] = v or push are 54× slower than Node (binding keeps the forwarded old head; every inline read bails out) #10514 bench's grown / grown_typed variants (a module-global let d = [] grown at top level) SIGSEGV under the seeded schedule on base d57f5139f as well. The fault is a stale from-space deref reported by the quarantine. I have not diagnosed it further.
  • gc_store_site_inventory.py: emit_guarded_inbounds_array_store_keyed is registered as a stem forwarder, and the new dynarr.set stem has an IR witness in barrier_stem_census_tests.rs.
  • SKIP_COMPILE_GATES=1 scripts/run_lint_gates.sh: 91 of 94 script gates passed; the compile tier was not run. The two failures that are not mine: cargo xwin is not installed on qb2, and "Public benchmark evidence freshness" is red on main.

Not run

  • No macOS or Windows build.
  • No full cargo test --workspace.
  • No wall-clock numbers (qb2 counts instructions only).

Relationship to other work

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Performance

    • Untyped writes to ordinary arrays can now use a guarded fast path for in-bounds elements.
    • Untyped reads can better handle arrays after they grow, and packed-number loops can refresh array references before accessing elements.
    • Reported benchmark results show fewer instructions per iteration for two workloads, and a reduction from 564 to 73 instructions per element for one grown-array read.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Added coverage for untyped array access across arrays, typed arrays, buffers, and other indexed values, including edge cases such as sparse elements and frozen arrays.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Dynamic Array reads now follow a validated forwarding target. Untyped stores can use a guarded in-bounds ordinary-Array path. Packed range-loop guards refresh eligible local bindings that contain forwarded Arrays.

Changes

Dynamic array access

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolve forwarded arrays on dynamic reads
crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_get/inline_dyn_typed_array.rs, crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_get_claim_tests.rs
Integral-indexed reads follow a forwarding target only after validating its heap address and Array header. IR tests expect the additional forwarding blocks.
Guard canonical indices and Array stores
crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_set_guarded.rs, crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_set.rs, crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/write_barrier.rs, crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_set_barrier_tests.rs
Guarded stores accept precomputed or canonicalized indices. They check the Array brand before forwarding and bounds checks. Write-barrier and string-addref work is conditional on the supplied store facts.
Route untyped stores through guarded Array handling
crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_set_typed_array.rs, crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_set.rs, crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/barrier_stem_census_tests.rs, scripts/gc_store_site_inventory.py, test-files/test_gap_10513_untyped_array_element_access.ts, changelog.d/11588-untyped-array-element-access.md
The dynamic store helper can route stores through typed-array or guarded ordinary-Array handling. Guard misses use strict runtime assignment. The added tests cover untyped indexed access across Arrays and other indexed objects.
Refresh forwarded packed-loop bindings
crates/perry-codegen/src/stmt/loops.rs
Packed range-loop guards refresh eligible local Array bindings when they contain a forwarded Array, then load the refreshed binding for guard evaluation.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ace01

Some Array stores and packed loops may miss the new optimizations. The change remains mergeable with these performance limitations understood or corrected.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to ace01

Common array operations now take a direct path around runtime checks. The normal guards and fallback appear to preserve behavior, but the safety of one newly direct memory read is not fully established.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: The new direct read of a forwarded Array target relies on its pointer denoting a tracked allocation, but its inline address-range and header checks do not establish that property. The runtime resolver does. A memory-safety impact would require a malformed or otherwise untrusted forwarding target; its reachability from JavaScript was not established.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The affected sink is a direct header and element read in compiled Array access, so any reachable ownership violation would affect the executing process's memory safety. The evidence does not establish an independently attackable tenant, service, or environment boundary.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A malformed in-range forwarding target could reach an unchecked header read where the runtime resolver would reject an untracked target. No evidence establishes that JavaScript input can create that target; no exploit path is verified.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Normal forwarding publication writes a target user address into the stub; GC copying obtains its new target from an arena allocation. The inline read rejects out-of-range, non-Array, and still-forwarded targets, while failures retain the runtime dispatcher.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Establish and test the provenance invariant for every forwarding-target writer, including Array growth, or require tracked-allocation validation before the new direct target-header read.

Ready to merge once CI is clean. Part of #10513/#10514/#10718: untyped plain-Array stores go inline through the guarded store, untyped reads follow one growth-forwarding hop inline, and grown number[] locals regain the packed fast loop. node-forge rsa_sign −50%, big.js −42%, bignumber.js −21%, decimal.js −17%; #10514 grown read goes from 564 to 73 instructions. Stated cost: about +7 instructions per untyped typed-array store (+3.4% on a synthetic Uint16Array loop). The full 1,084-test gap sweep shows no base-vs-branch differences; root-dominance and GC stress are clean. Independent of #11589.

`emit_dyn_index_set_typed_array` to check both the receiver address and that the
cached kind denotes a typed array before branching to `ta_idx`. Route
negative-cache entries, including ordinary Arrays, to `array_idx` so they retain

emit_packed_range_receiver_forwarding_repair to use the emitted target’s heap
ceiling, matching the runtime’s HEAP_MAX instead of the hard-coded 2^47 limit.

Check the cached kind before selecting the typed-array arm.

A negative cache entry for an ordinary Array has the same receiver address but stores tag 0xFF. The outer guard checks only the address, so it enters the typed-array helper. That helper rejects 0xFF and calls js_dyn_index_set_strict, which bypasses the new guarded Array store and loses the fast path. A prior untyped read can populate this negative entry.

Suggested fix
         let entry_val = blk.load(I64, &entry_ptr);
         let entry_addr = blk.lshr(I64, &entry_val, "8");
+        let entry_kind = blk.and(I64, &entry_val, "255");
+        let is_typed_array = blk.icmp_ule(I64, &entry_kind, "11");
         // A cache entry names a heap address, so a non-pointer box whose low
         // 48 bits collide with one still fails the full guard in `dynarr.ta`.
-        let cached_typed_array = blk.icmp_eq(I64, &entry_addr, &raw);
+        let address_match = blk.icmp_eq(I64, &entry_addr, &raw);
+        let cached_typed_array = blk.and(I1, &address_match, &is_typed_array);
         blk.cond_br(&cached_typed_array, &ta_label, &array_label);

Update the `PERRY_TA_KIND_CACHE` guard in `emit_dyn_index_set_typed_array` to
check both the receiver address and that the cached kind denotes a typed array
before branching to `ta_idx`. Route negative-cache entries, including ordinary
Arrays, to `array_idx` so they retain the guarded Array store path.

Use the emitted target’s heap ceiling in the forwarding repair.

On AArch64 Linux and Android, valid heap addresses can use the full 48-bit range, including 0x0000_e000_.... The repair accepts only addresses below 2^47. A grown local Array whose forwarded head is in the upper range therefore skips js_array_refresh_local_head, reloads the forwarded binding, and remains on the packed loop’s slow path.

Derive this bound from the emitted target, matching the runtime’s HEAP_MAX, instead of hard-coding the x86-64 limit.

FYI: the pre-existing grown / grown_typed SIGSEGV that this PR's body records (#11590) is root-caused and fixed in #11599. The packed-f64 range loop cached a module-global receiver in a bare alloca double that evacuation never rewrote. The slow clone polls and grows the array through that cache.

The two PRs merge cleanly (git merge-tree), and this PR needs no change. One interaction to be aware of: for a module-global receiver, emit_packed_range_receiver_forwarding_repair writes the healed head into ctx.locals[array_id], and that is the cache slot. #11599 makes that slot a GC root, so the healed head is rewritten on evacuation too.

…o count literals

#11588 (forwarding hop, +3 blocks) and #11589 (byte-view arm, +3 blocks)
each bumped the coupled-coercion test's hardcoded block count from 21 to
24; merged, the site has 27 blocks and the literal was stale. The codegen
is correct: the byte-view arm yields a uitofp byte (a Number by
construction, like the typed-array width arms) and the forwarding hop
yields no value.

Both tests now compare against one shared DYNAMIC_INDEX_SITE_BLOCKS list
(the full ordered shape, stronger than a length), and the coupled test
additionally asserts the u8 and tav.w* arms never coerce.
