This PR makes the guard bytes the shared contract for direct arms,super.m(),super.prop, and the wide dispatch tower. If a later change edits one copy and not the other, one direct-arm site can stop checking guard bytes that the runtime still sets.

1946-1951: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winCheck the process latch before the per-hop registry lookup in
instance_chain_parent_class_id.This helper now runs on every parent hop of instance method walks. Those walks include
lookup_class_method_in_chain,method_owner_class_id, theclass_chain_declaresinstance walk, and the runtime dispatch towers inhandle_methods.rsandcollection_methods.rs. Each hop callsclass_decl_prototype_relinked(cid). That function callsclass_decl_prototype_object(cid)first. It checks the user-override flag only after that lookup.
crates/perry-runtime/src/object/instanceof.rs(lines 868-875) gives the cost of that probe: "TLS + RwLock + map, ~130 instructions each". It also says thatany_user_prototype_override()answers the same question for the whole process in one load.object_set_static_prototype_implpublishesUSER_PROTO_OVERRIDE_EVERbefore it setsOBJECT_META_FLAG_USER_PROTO_OVERRIDE. Gating on the latch therefore cannot miss a relink.In a process that never relinks a prototype, the doc comment's claim that the check "pays nothing" holds only for walks without a parent. Every inherited-method hop still pays for the lookup.
⚡ Proposed fix

class_decl_prototype_relinked. That would coverdeclared_chain_has_relinked_prototypeand theinstanceofcallers too.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

super.m() called the body resolved along the declared extends chain, and its runtime fallback (taken once a prototype-surgery guard byte is set) resolved through the declared vtable, so a patched, deleted or getter-backed parent method never applied (#11760). typeof super.m and super.m as a value were the declared method's wrapper, super.x and super calls ignored a relinked home, and a static super.s() resolved an instance method of the same name. The runtime now reads home.[[GetPrototypeOf]]().[[Get]](key, this) where the declared lookups stop describing the chain and the runtime models it end to end (the home links somewhere other than its declared parent, or the declared chain is compiled user classes only): - super.m() falls back to it whenever its guard byte is set. - A static super call keeps the declared static lookup, which reads the class function objects, unless that lookup misses or a constructor on the way was relinked. - super.x keeps the declared lookup, which reads the prototype objects, unless a prototype on the declared chain was relinked. The relink checks run only once a user prototype override exists (one latch load). js_super_accessor_get now takes the home class id, and the resolved super.m value reads the same guard bytes as super.m(). instanceof walked declared class ids. Once a user prototype override exists, an instance whose own prototype was replaced, or whose declared chain passes a relinked class prototype before reaching the target, is answered by OrdinaryHasInstance on the live chain (#11765). The same holds for instanceof Object. C.prototype.__proto__ = X compiled to a prototype-method install named __proto__. It now performs the [[Set]], which reaches the Object.prototype accessor and relinks like Object.setPrototypeOf.

Closes #11765
What
super.nameis a property lookup on the home object's current[[Prototype]](the class prototype in an instance member, the class constructor in a static one) withthisas receiver.inst instanceof Kwalks the instance's live chain. Both followed the declaredextendschain, so after prototype surgery they disagreed with node (#11760, #11765).super.m(),typeof super.m,super.mas a value andsuper.xread the live chain. The compile-time direct route stays, behind the existing prototype-method guard byte; when the byte is set the call goes to the runtime lookup (js_super_method_call_dynamic/js_super_accessor_get, which now takes the home class id).super.s()no longer resolves an instance method of the same name at compile time.instanceof(static class id, dynamic RHS,instanceof Object, builtin-subclass walk) answers from the live chain once a user prototype override exists: one latch load otherwise. A relinked class prototype on the declared chain, or an instance whose own prototype was replaced, sends the question to OrdinaryHasInstance.Symbol.hasInstanceis untouched.C.prototype.__proto__ = Xis the Object.prototype setter: a relink, not an own property named__proto__.object/class_super_chain.rs(split out ofclass_constructors.rs, which was over the 2000-line file-size gate).Tests
