fix(runtime,stdlib,codegen,ext): short (SSO) strings at native string entry points (#11519)

[proggeramlug]

Part of #11519

Follow-up to #11468 / #11486 (#11430). A string of up to 5 bytes built at runtime (String(n), a template, "a" + "b", JSON.parse) is stored inline in the NaN-box (SHORT_STRING_TAG, 0x7FF9) with no StringHeader behind it. Native entry points that unbox a string argument with bits & POINTER_MASK read its characters as an address (segfault); ones that check the heap tag 0x7FFF only read it as "not a string" (wrong answer).

How the sites were found

1. Differential sweep. Every gap test that passes on main was rewritten so each short string literal passed as a call argument became a runtime-built string ("hex" → __S("hex"), with __S = s => s.charAt(0) + s.slice(1)), then compared against Node 26.5.1. 810 tests had such a literal; 65 diverged. Re-run on a pristine build of the branch point (94177cc), the SSO-caused ones reproduce there.
2. Static scan. Every function in the runtime-side crates that casts masked bits to *StringHeader, or reads a StringHeader behind a heap-only string test, with no SSO handling in its body; and every codegen call that passes an unbox_to_i64 result to a runtime parameter declared as a string. This became the new ratchet (below).

What changed (about 40 entry points, ~150 unbox sites)

Segfaults fixed: Date.parse(s); execSync/spawnSync/exec/spawn commands; JSON.parse(s, reviver); new AggregateError(e, s); new EvalError(s)/new URIError(s); new StringDecoder(s) (its SSO decoder tested tag 0x7FFA, i.e. BIGINT_TAG); Uint8Array.fromHex/fromBase64/setFromHex/setFromBase64; new URLSearchParams(s) and legacy url.parse(s); async_hooks.createHook({ init: s }) (the closure probes masked any NaN-box tag, SSO included); node:net event names and BlockList strings in ext-net and the stdlib net bridge; an array-typed field that holds a short string at runtime (b.items[-1]).

Wrong answers fixed: new Date(s), new Date(y, s); typed-array stores of a string; Array.from(s, fn) / an Array.from alias (came back empty); Buffer#hasOwnProperty(s)/propertyIsEnumerable(s); KeyObject.export({ format: s }); File lastModified; Symbol[s] well-known lookup; (s as any).length via the dynamic getter; perry/thread truthiness; Temporal string arguments (Temporal.Now.plainDateISO(s)); AbortSignal.addEventListener(s); node:http event names (the exchange hung), res.end(String(n)), header values, writeHead status message, request method, setEncoding.

Mechanism.

• Runtime readers borrow the bytes through a new allocation-free crate::string::with_string_value_bytes (closure form of str_bytes_from_jsvalue).
• Natives that only read a *const StringHeader during the call get js_ffi_arg_ptr's scratch copy (fix(codegen,runtime): crypto natives accept an SSO string argument; hash.update(String(n)) no longer segfaults (#11430 follow-up) #11486); the ext crates reach it through a new perry_ffi::string_arg_ptr, next to a new JsValue::to_owned_string.
• ABI change: js_aggregateerror_new_full(errors, message, options) now takes message as a NaN-boxed f64 and coerces it (runtime, codegen decl and wasm32/runtime_abi.tsv together); it also roots its operands across the iterable walk and the allocation. EvalError/URIError go through the existing js_error_new_kind_from_value.
• Codegen: Date.parse, the reviver form of JSON.parse, the child_process commands, fetch's method, crypto.sha256/md5 and the (currently unconstructed) Expr::StringAt/StringCodePointAt arms use unbox_ffi_str_arg; new StringDecoder(enc) passes raw NaN-box bits; the array runtime-key read branches to js_dyn_index_get for an SSO receiver (expr/helpers.rs, keeping index_get.rs under the 2000-line cap).

Guard: scripts/sso_unbox_inventory.py (new lint step)

Ratchets three shapes per crate against scripts/sso_unbox_baseline.txt:

• mask-cast: masked bits cast to *StringHeader in a function with no SSO handling. 68 on the branch point, 49 now.
• heap-tag-only: a StringHeader read behind a heap-only string test (== STRING_TAG, .is_string(), .as_string_ptr(), …) with no SSO handling. 69 (new rule, baseline only).
• codegen-str-arg: an unbox_to_i64 result passed to a runtime parameter declared as a string. 9 on the branch point, 0 now.

The remaining counts are debt, not all bugs: keys read back out of an object's keys array are always heap strings, for example. The self-test plants each shape (a == 0x7FFF reader, an unguarded cast, a user-value unbox_to_i64 into a string param) and checks that a literal-handle operand, an object operand in a non-string position, SSO-aware code, comments and cfg(test) code are not counted. I sabotage-checked it: disabling the SSO-marker filter or the codegen binding lookup makes --self-test fail. It does not follow an unbox_to_i64 through a local wrapper function (child_process's slot_ptr was one; fixed by hand), and it does not see a string passed as an i64 from a hand-written ext dispatcher (unbox_to_i64(args[0]) in ext-net). Both are named in the script's docstring as limits.

string_payload_access_baseline.txt is lowered 348 → 337 (the fixes removed 11 open-coded payload offsets).

Validation

Arms: branch point 94177cc vs this branch, both CARGO_PROFILE_RELEASE_CODEGEN_UNITS=16 cargo build --release -p perry -p perry-runtime-static -p perry-stdlib-static (+ -p perry-ext-http -p perry-ext-events -p perry-ext-net, ext archives built from each arm's own sources), PERRY_NO_AUTO_OPTIMIZE=1, PERRY_RUNTIME_DIR pinned per arm, Linux x86_64, Node 26.5.1.

• 7 new gap tests (rebased build re-run: all 7 pass, as do both test_gap_11430_*) (test_gap_11519_*: date/typed-array, misc args, child_process, http, buffer/options, builtins, net/url): all fail on the branch point (5 segfault, 1 hangs, 1 wrong output) and all pass on this branch. The http test's base failure is SSO-caused: the same program with heap strings passes on the base arm. Both test_gap_11430_* tests still pass.
• Differential sweep: of the 65 divergent rewritten tests, all but the ones listed under "Not fixed" now match Node.
• Full gap suite (own per-test runner, not the harness), on this branch rebased onto main be39bbf: 1118 tests; 25 not runnable under Node (NODE_FAIL); 1071 match Node; 22 differ. 19 of the 22 are in gap_snapshot.json's known-failing list; the other 3 (test_gap_console_methods, which prints wall-clock timings, test_gap_zlib_3285_params, test_gap_zlib_4917_level) fail identically on the branch-point build (the zlib outputs are byte-identical across the two arms).
• RUST_TEST_THREADS=1 cargo test --release -p perry-runtime: 4698 passed, 0 failed.
• cargo test --release -p perry-codegen: 2304 passed, 0 failed.
• cargo test --release -p perry-stdlib (RUST_TEST_THREADS=1): 241 passed, 0 failed. Multi-threaded, common::handle_lifecycle::tests::a_million_mixed_common_and_ffi_cycles_never_exhaust_the_band failed once and passed 3/3 alone; this PR does not touch that module.
• cargo test --release -p perry-ffi -p perry-ext-net -p perry-ext-http -p perry-ext-events: 322 passed, 0 failed.
• RUSTFLAGS='-D warnings' cargo check --all-targets (dev profile) for perry, perry-runtime, perry-stdlib, perry-codegen, perry-ffi, perry-ext-{http,net,events}: clean. cargo fmt --check: clean. check_file_size.sh: OK.
• SKIP_COMPILE_GATES=1 scripts/run_lint_gates.sh: 102 of 103 script gates pass; the one failure is the known-red "Public benchmark evidence freshness". Compile tier not run.

Instruction A/B (perf stat -e instructions:u, differential: (I(1.2M iters) − I(200k iters)) / 1M, best of 3, cgu16 archives on both arms):

probe	base /iter	this PR /iter	Δ
new Date(iso) + Date.parse(iso) (heap string)	2217.3	2185.5	−1.4%
typed-array store through an untyped setter (f64 + u8)	691.0	691.0	0
new URLSearchParams(init).get()	24702.3	24693.1	−0.04%
params.get() + params.has()	23371.8	23353.9	−0.08%
control, untouched path (Map + JSON.stringify)	4709.0	4665.0	−0.9%

The control's −0.9% is the cgu16 partitioning noise band on this host. An earlier revision of url::get_string_content measured +0.45% on the URLSearchParams probes; keeping its heap arm identical to the old body with the SSO arm out of line removed that.

Not fixed (still open under #11519)

• (arrayBuffer as any).toString(sso) returns the hex of the bytes where Node returns "[object ArrayBuffer]" (the heap-string argument gives the right answer); in test_gap_10927 rewritten.
• (sso as string)[Symbol.iterator] === String.prototype[Symbol.iterator] is false through a typed-string receiver helper (test_gap_9815 rewritten).
• The mask-cast / heap-tag-only baseline entries were triaged only where the sweep or a probe reached them; the rest are recorded debt.
• Separately found, not SSO: a statically typed Uint8Array element store of any string (heap or inline) writes 0 (u8[0] = "7"), so the gap test drives that store through an untyped setter.

Not run

• The parity harness (run_parity_tests.sh) itself; the full-suite result above is from a per-test runner comparing stdout to Node.
• macOS, Windows, cargo xwin check.
• The compile tier of run_lint_gates.sh.
• Package acceptance (pg etc.).
• A plain --release (cgu=1) instruction A/B.

Suites this change can affect without touching them

• crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_get_claim_tests.rs asserts aidx.runtime_key shapes; they still pass (the runtime-key read now contains an SSO branch).
• Any IR-shape test that looked for js_evalerror_new, js_urierror_new or a masked js_aggregateerror_new_full argument (none found).

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds support for inline short strings in runtime conversions, codegen, and HTTP and network native entry points. It also adds regression probes and a lint inventory that checks for selected SSO-unsafe string-unboxing patterns.

Changes

SSO string access

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Shared string access and FFI conversions crates/perry-ffi/src/jsvalue.rs, crates/perry-ffi/src/lib.rs, crates/perry-runtime/src/string/mod.rs	JsValue::to_owned_string, string_arg_ptr, and with_string_value_bytes provide conversions or byte access for heap and inline strings. The FFI crate re-exports string_arg_ptr.
Runtime string consumers crates/perry-runtime/src/{array/from_concat.rs,buffer/u8_codec.rs,child_process/registry.rs,date.rs,object/buffer_dispatch.rs,string/mod.rs,symbol/constructors.rs,temporal/*,thread.rs,typedarray/mod.rs,url/mod.rs,value/dynamic_object.rs,cluster.rs,fs/stream.rs,validators.rs}, crates/perry-stdlib/src/{fetch_blob.rs,string_decoder.rs}	Runtime conversion, property, buffer, date, URL, symbol, Temporal, and truthiness paths now recognize inline strings. Closure-pointer extraction excludes the inline-string tag.
HTTP and network native argument handling crates/perry-ext-events/src/messages.rs, crates/perry-ext-http/src/{agent.rs,client_dispatch_ext.rs,client_request_surface.rs,lib.rs,server/*,tls_client.rs}, crates/perry-ext-net/src/dispatch.rs, crates/perry-stdlib/src/common/{dispatch/fastify_net_zlib.rs,dispatch_http.rs,net_method_values.rs}	Changed extension and standard-library dispatch paths use owned-string conversion or FFI string-argument conversion for applicable inputs. HTTP header merging and several HTTP string fields also recognize short strings.
Codegen string arguments and indexing crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/{array_methods.rs,child_proc.rs,env_clones.rs,helpers.rs,index_get.rs,instance_misc1.rs,logical_collections.rs,misc_methods.rs,string_regex_proc.rs,mod.rs}, crates/perry-codegen/src/lower_call/builtin.rs, crates/perry-codegen/src/runtime_decls/strings_part2.rs, crates/perry-runtime/src/error.rs	Codegen uses SSO-aware conversions for changed string arguments and indexing. AggregateError and EvalError/URIError construction pass NaN-boxed values to runtime constructors.
Regression cases and inventory .github/workflows/test.yml, changelog.d/11627-sso-string-entry-points.md, scripts/sso_unbox_*, scripts/string_payload_access_baseline.txt, test-files/test_gap_11519_*_short_strings.ts	New regression probes cover short strings across multiple APIs. The lint job runs the inventory self-test and scan against committed baselines.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 5eee8

This change fixes crashes and wrong results when native APIs receive short strings. However, constructing an AggregateError with a cause option can corrupt memory if garbage collection runs at the wrong moment. Empty strings stored in numeric typed arrays also become NaN instead of 0. The AggregateError problem should be fixed before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 5eee8

Short strings now work across sensitive native operations. Existing command validation and TLS verification appear to remain in place, but the lifetime guarantee for temporary native string arguments has not been established across every new caller.

Retained concerns

• Medium · security · inferred: New native call paths rely on a temporary short-string header that is overwritten after 16 further same-thread conversions. A consumer that rereads its pointer after sufficient reentry could use a different argument value. Inspected consumers have not shown a reachable violation, but the invariant is not established for all new callers.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The affected authority is that of a program using these native operations: its command execution, networking, and TLS inputs can now include runtime-built short strings. The examined changes do not establish new authority beyond those operations.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

• inferred — A nested sequence of 16 short-string conversions could overwrite an earlier borrowed argument before a delayed native read, potentially changing a sensitive operation's input. No examined caller demonstrates that sequence; this is an unresolved contract risk, not a verified exploit path.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — Child-process commands remain subject to the existing string-argument validation before conversion; accepting an inline representation does not remove that gate.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• inferred — Copying arguments into owned strings before registration or callback execution contains scratch-slot reuse in the inspected listener paths, but the expanded native-call surface has not been exhaustively checked for delayed pointer reads.

Hardening Proposals

• proposed — Establish the borrow invariant for each new native pointer consumer, including rereads after callbacks or nested conversions; exercise scratch-slot wraparound and reentry where an argument cannot be copied immediately.

Reload the error and options after the cause-key allocation.

apply_cause_from_options allocates the "cause" string before it reads options or writes through err. Line 866 extracts both values from handles before that allocation. If GC moves either object, the helper can read a stale options pointer or write through a stale error pointer. Pass the handles into the helper and reload them after the allocation, before js_dyn_index_get and error_set_cause. Based on learnings, Perry production GC does not scan Rust stack locals as roots; helpers must reload values from RuntimeHandleScope after an operation that can collect.

Handle the empty string as 0 in jsvalue_to_f64.

ToNumber of "" or of a whitespace-only string is 0. At line 1169, s.trim().parse::<f64>() fails on an empty string, so this path returns NaN. The change now sends SSO strings through this path. "" is always SSO, so new Float64Array([""]) stores NaN where Node stores 0. jsvalue_to_number in date.rs and blob_to_number handle this case already.

Proposed fix

             std::str::from_utf8(bytes)
                 .ok()

Capture the complete codegen argument list.

CALL_RE can stop at the ] in an indexed reference such as &args[0]). The captured arguments then omit later tuples, so scan_codegen can miss a later unbox_to_i64 result passed to a string-pointer parameter.

Require )] as the argument-list terminator. Add a PLANTED_CODEGEN self-test with &args[0] as the first argument and an unbox_to_i64 result in the string position.

🐛 Suggested fix

-CALL_RE = re.compile(r'"([A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*)"\s*,\s*&\[(.*?)\]\s*,?\s*\)', re.S)
+CALL_RE = re.compile(r'"([A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*)"\s*,\s*&\[(.*?\))\s*\]\s*,?\s*\)', re.S)

Review comment at @scripts/sso_unbox_inventory.py at line 103:
Update CALL_RE so an indexed reference such as &args[0] does not terminate
argument capture before the complete codegen argument list; ensure scan_codegen
sees later tuples. Add a PLANTED_CODEGEN self-test with &args[0] first and an
unbox_to_i64 result in the string position.
