A distributed union spread evaluates its source before the dispatch, so
the properties written before the spread run after it. When the source
may have effects (a call that changes a value an earlier property reads),
those properties must now be constants; otherwise the literal takes the
checked-dynamic merge, which keeps Node's order.
A listener registered under an unrestricted event name was not recorded
in the program's event scan. A prefixed or suffixed emit with no matching
pattern listener was then lowered to `false` without dispatching, so the
any-name listener never ran. The scan now records such registrations, and
computed-name emits dispatch whenever one exists.
The same registrations can place a listener of any signature in the
bucket of a literal event. listeners(), rawListeners() and
events.getEventListeners() of a literal event returned that bucket typed
by the event's tuple, so calling an element passed the listener arguments
of other types. These calls are now refused once the program registers a
listener under an unrestricted name, as they already are for pattern
registrations.
A top-level return in a CommonJS module compiles when declarations follow
it. When the return is taken, only code that already exists can observe the
bindings it skips: functions and classes created before the return, and
function declarations after it. A module where one of them reads a binding
declared after the return, or that assigns exports after it, still stops
with SC1090.
assert.strictEqual and assert.notStrictEqual compare a nullable number,
string or boolean (`number | null`, `string | null`) with a scalar, null or
undefined through the checked-dynamic SameValue compare, which reports
Node's failure messages. notStrictEqual of another nullable value, such as
`child.stdin`, against null or undefined tests the value's tag.
An initializer-less JavaScript `let` whose writes all agree also takes
their type when the writes are calls declared in the standard library, such
as `spawn(...)`, and at file scope. A runtime handle that a closure
captures takes the handle or undefined. Inside a nested function, a member
read on it (`c.address()`, `child.stdin`) reads the handle and throws
Node's TypeError while the binding is still undefined; other reads there
take the checked-dynamic value.
- Worker programs run strip-mined typed-array loops in blocks of 128
iterations when the program's code is compiled for x86-64-v3 or above,
or with --cpu-dispatch. At that level the vectorized loop over bytes
takes 128 iterations a step, so in blocks of 64 its vector code never
ran.
- In --cpu-dispatch builds, the LLVM helper gives an x86-64-v3 copy the
optimized code of its baseline copy when the v3 code has vectors of at
most 128 bits, none wider, and no rounding or bit-count intrinsic in a
loop. Its direct calls go to the callees' x86-64-v3 copies. The text
partitioner places each x86-64-v3 copy with its baseline copy, so the
two are optimized in one partition.
process.memoryUsage() reported external and arrayBuffers as 0. arrayBuffers
is now the storage of the ArrayBuffers, typed arrays, Buffers, DataViews
and SharedArrayBuffers the program holds, and external the same storage
without SharedArrayBuffers, as Node splits them. A view over existing
storage adds nothing. v8.getHeapStatistics().external_memory reads the
same figure as external.
Each ScrBytes owner records the bytes it counts in the struct's padding,
so ScrBytes stays 64 bytes and the offsets compiled code reads hold; a
static assertion pins them. Owners are counted in a per-instance counter,
because their reference counts are not atomic and they are released on
their instance's thread. Shared storage moves its owner's count to a
process-wide atomic counter, since any thread may release it.
Under the synchronous output model nothing is ever queued: Node emits
'drain' only after a write() returned false, and these writes never
return false. The process streams therefore describe a stream whose
writes complete synchronously, and the members a flush idiom probes are
constants:
- writableHighWaterMark is 65536 (Node's default for a pipe, a file and
a TTY);
- writableNeedDrain is false;
- writableLength stays 0.
`on`/`once`/`addListener`/`off`/`removeListener`/`prependListener`/
`prependOnceListener` of "drain" evaluate their receiver and listener and
register nothing: the event cannot fire, and the listener table is not
observable (listenerCount/listeners/eventNames on the process streams
stay refused).
`events.once(process.stdout | process.stderr, "drain")` lowers to
`events.pendingForever`, a fresh promise that never settles, which is
Node's behavior for a stream no write asked to drain; it holds no loop
handle, so a program awaiting it still exits.
The fallback declarations gain writableHighWaterMark, writableNeedDrain
and the event methods, so typed programs can ask.
Corpus: `tests/corpus/process-stream-drain.ts`; the diagnostics fixture
`process-stream-listener-count.ts` pins that reading the listener table
stays refused.

Reading `process.stdout.write` as a value, `write.bind(stream)`, and
`process.stdout.write = fn` now reach the runtime stream object's write
slot in TypeScript, and a program that replaces an output write method
calls its typed writes through that slot (SC8020 refuses the combination
with Node islands until H2 shares the stream object with them).

A path family read by untyped code is a plain object holding Node's
members in Node's order, built once per family and kept in the
builtin-module registry. Object.keys, Object.entries, Object.assign,
spreads, for-in and own-property checks over it see those members.
path.posix.posix and the cross-family members refer to the registered
objects; the registry releases their members at exit through the objects'
own storage.
Every builtin function value that becomes untyped boxes as its checked
twin, under the builtin's name and length, after lowering: a module
object's member, an assertion's argument, and a read of a binding whose
only stores are that builtin (a const local, or a module-level binding).
`ns.join === path.posix.join` holds for an untyped path namespace, and
`const join = path.join` passed to an untyped function compares equal to
path.join and validates its arguments with Node's errors.
The lowerer journals the checked-twin table (each builtin's data, display
name and location), so a unit replayed from the journal keeps its twins.
A profile merged with --sparse has no record of the functions its
training never ran, so a build with it optimized them as without a
profile, and on tsc-ts they are 72% of the program's IR. The block-count
file a recording build writes now also names those functions, with an
entry count of zero and no blocks. A --profile-use build that reads the
file gives such a function an entry count of 0 and the cold attribute,
as it does for a mismatched function the file records as never run, so
LLVM optimizes it for size and places it with the other unlikely code.
A function the file does not name, such as one added since the profile
was collected, keeps no counts.
In TypeScript, tee(), pipeTo() and pipeThrough() on a ReadableStream were
refused with SC2020, and the WritableStream constructor and a
TransformStream with a transformer had no lowering, while JavaScript
programs reach all of them through the web stream classes
(scr_webstreams.c).
A TypeScript program that uses one of them now builds its ReadableStream,
WritableStream and TransformStream values with those classes, as
JavaScript does, and %main installs them, so a native stream such as a
Response body answers the three methods through its web view. A program
that uses only getReader(), cancel(), locked and the identity transform
keeps the native streams and builds to the same binary.
The fallback declarations gain UnderlyingSink and Transformer, the
WritableStream constructor takes a sink and the TransformStream
constructor a transformer and queuing strategies, and their controllers
map to checked-dynamic handles. The fetch profile lists the three methods
as static with the new static-web-streams fetch fixture as their
differential evidence, and keeps them in the set that links the classes.
The surface manifest is regenerated, and the surface-manifest probe that
kept tee() and pipeTo() fenced now fences values() and the async
iterator.
Adds the static-web-streams fixture and the corpus program
web-streams-typed-pipes.ts, with its corpus cost and order baseline.
fs.watchFile(path[, options], listener) polls the resolved path every
`interval` milliseconds (5007 by default, `persistent` by default) and
calls its listener with (current, previous) Stats when a poll sees a
difference. The first poll only records the baseline, a path that cannot
be stat'd polls as all-zero Stats, and a stat failure that repeats for
the same errno is not re-reported. One poller per RESOLVED path is
shared by every listener on it, and fs.unwatchFile(path[, listener])
removes the last listener registered with that callback, or every
listener when called without one. The call is a statement, since Node's
StatWatcher has no lowering, and bigint: true is refused.
The implementation is scr_watch_file.c, a new gated runtime unit
switched by moduleUsesFsWatchFile, so programs that do not poll link
none of it. The feature travels the usual chain (runtime-features,
executable-features, the native link info, the executable cache keys,
the runtime-pack matrix) and the validator learns that
fs.unwatchFile's trailing listener slot may be omitted.
Evidence:
- tests/corpus/fs-watch-file-names.ts and fs-watch-file-polling.ts match
Node on stdout, stderr and exit status in the plain and sanitized lanes
- 1564-fs-watch.ts, 1751-options-record-stance.ts and the `fs` corpus stay
green; the new order baselines and corpus cost files are recorded

The forms the first slice answers now lower: x.toLocaleString() (and an
explicit undefined locale) to icu.numFormatDefault, the argument-free
Date#toLocaleString/toLocaleTimeString to the ICU date formatters, and
Intl.Segmenter({ granularity: "word" }) to the ICU word iterator (a
literal language tag is the locale; the empty string is the default).
Sentence segmentation keeps its refusing construction in JavaScript
dependencies, the grapheme segmenter stays the engine-free fast path,
and the code notes the deletion I4 schedules.
The refusals that named these forms follow: the four stdlib hints, the
Intl identifier hint, the Date method hint and the Segmenter option
messages list what lowers and what still does not (locale negotiation,
options bags, toLocaleDateString, formatter values). The library mode
refuses the icu.* libCalls, whose ambient locale state and data file a
library archive cannot carry, and the ambient process.config comment says
what a compiled binary can honestly answer.
An argument that IS undefined (exactly undefined, or void) means the
absent form and lowers; one whose type merely includes undefined may hold
a locale or an options bag at run time, and the constructor cannot read
either, so it is refused rather than silently treated as absent.

path.posix, path.win32 and the bare path module are one module object
each, the handle process.getBuiltinModule answers, so require('path/posix'),
path.posix and the target platform's bare path compare as Node's do, a
namespace beside other values in one slot is untyped, and path[family]
reads that object. Functions read through them take checked arguments:
each string parameter passes Node's validateString under its own name
(basename's suffix first), resolve validates paths[i] only as far as its
last-first walk reads them, parse answers an untyped { root, dir, base,
ext, name }, format follows _format over any object, and
toNamespacedPath answers a non-string as it is. A JavaScript call whose
arguments are not strings, or omit one, goes through the same checks.
Typed slots keep the typed function values.
path.win32.relative lowercases both resolved paths with
String.prototype.toLowerCase and walks them by UTF-16 unit, comparing
segments instead when lowercasing changed a length, as Node does. It
folded ASCII only, so a path with İ or Ⱥ in a different case gave a
longer relative path. The function moves into its own runtime unit,
scr_path_win32_relative.c, which links with the regex unit whose case
mapping it uses. scr_path.c stays free of it, so library and
cross-target builds that link the path functions without the regex unit
still link.
A JavaScript binding whose inferred type holds a union of functions and
arrays (a test table of [fn, cases] rows, or one destructured row) takes
the checked-dynamic kind that dynFallbackType gives the unmappable
spellings of such tables. Its rows keep their functions' names, and
for-of, forEach and destructuring read the items as untyped values.
TypeScript bindings keep their typed layout.
With --exceptions=rare, recursive functions and functions up to three
calls above a throw also propagate exceptions by unwinding on Linux, so
calls to them need no pending-flag test. Functions with a throw of their
own keep the flag. The default, common, keeps the current rules, and
builds without the flag emit the same code as before.
The option is part of the executable cache key; the bootstrap's cached
route leaves builds with it to the full compiler, and coverage and
library builds refuse it.
Each partition's source file name was the program entry's absolute path,
and profiles name a module's local functions after it. Since programs keep
partition-local functions internal (#2449), a profile collected in one
directory missed those functions in builds from any other: a native
compiler profile collected on main named 27% of its records, holding 2.2%
of its counts, after the checkout's path. Modules now carry the entry's
file name. The partition cache key still includes the full path.
A block-count file annotated every function the profile left without
counts, including functions the profile has no record of. The recovered
count could then exceed the mismatched functions it annotated and hide the
stale-profile warning for mismatched functions left without counts. Only
functions the profile annotation tagged as mismatched are annotated now, so
the recovered count stays among the mismatched ones.
A profile annotates a function only while its control flow hashes as it did
when the profile was collected, so compiler and source changes leave the
changed functions without counts. A --profile-use build now reads a
block-count file beside the profile (app.blocks beside app.profdata). Right
after the annotation before inlining, the helper aligns each uncounted
function's blocks with its recorded blocks by label kind and successor
count. Paired blocks take their recorded counts and their edges the recorded
edge counts, by target or, between targets whose labels changed, by
position. LLVM's flow inference fills in the rest, avoiding the edges the
function's own llvm.expect weights make unlikely. The helper then sets the
entry count, branch weights and hot or cold attribute as the profile
annotation does.
SCRIPTC_RECORD_PROFILE_BLOCKS names the file a --profile-use build writes
for the functions its profile annotates; such a build reuses no cached
artifacts. The block file keys every cache, the build report counts the
functions it annotated, and the staleness warning counts only the functions
left without counts. A single-module build with a context-sensitive profile
no longer counts annotated, mismatched and missing functions a second time
after inlining. scripts/refresh-cli-profile.mjs records the file in the
second phase and build-native-cli.mts reads it beside the profile.
In JavaScript, a Response or Request body answered getReader, cancel and
locked, and every other ReadableStream member was undefined: tee,
pipeTo, pipeThrough, values and for await threw TypeErrors where Node's
body is a ReadableStream.
In programs that link the web stream classes, the body's handle now
stands for a ReadableStream once any other member is used
(sf_stream_web_view): a stream with a zero high-water mark whose native
source reads the body (scr_webstream_readable_over). From then on every
member goes to it, the class's method values and getters run on it
through the alias's view (scr_dyn_handle_class_receiver), and text(),
clone(), new Response(body) and fetch uploads read the body through it,
so its lock and bodyUsed follow it as in Node. A body locked when the
view is made keeps the view locked until the lock is released. Once
only the view's source holds the body, the body lets the view go.
The compiler links the classes into a program whose JavaScript reads a
ReadableStream member that the fetch profile lists as unsupported by the
native stream, or iterates a ReadableStream with for await, and that
names none of the classes: %main calls webstream.install first.
Programs without web streams build to the same binaries as before.
Adds corpus programs fetch-body-web-stream-linked.mjs,
fetch-body-web-stream-unlinked.mjs and fetch-body-web-stream-network.mjs,
with their corpus costs and preflight/order baselines.
Typed records checked from frozen untyped values stay frozen, as the
objects they copy are. A sloppy-mode function called with undefined or null
as this receives the global object that globalThis reads.
The record check reads the source's integrity with a query that answers for
every value: a proxy answers as its target, and values without a modeled
integrity level, which Object.freeze refuses, are not frozen. Object.isFrozen
keeps its refusal of those values.
Native timers and an island's Node timers run on the hosted libuv loop but are not merged into one order, so callbacks from the two sides can run in a different order than in Node and the order can vary between runs.
