Fixes #9192. Differential vs node --experimental-strip-types, 136 checks: 47 divergences before, 19 after, 0 regressions.

Root cause

Perry has no real exotic-object prototype chain for arrays — an array's chain is implicit and hardcoded as Array.prototype → Object.prototype. Object.setPrototypeOf(arr, p) does record p and does latch the process-wide PERRY_ARRAY_INDEX_FAST_PATH_INVALIDATED, but nothing then reads the record when p is not an array. So perry paid the full global deopt for a case it did not implement.

The bug is symmetric, and both halves are silent: the array inherits nothing from its new prototype, and keeps inheriting everything from the old onetypeof a.map stayed "function" where node says "undefined".

The issue named only the first of two hardcodes. array_custom_array_prototype (indexed lookups) returned None unless the recorded prototype was itself GC_TYPE_ARRAY. The second is array_prototype_property_value (field_get_set/accessors.rs), which hardcodes Array.prototype and is the single fallback for the array arms of js_object_get_field_by_name, js_object_has_property, and via them Reflect.get/has and the for-in re-check. That second hardcode is what made the named-property, constructor, in-by-name and "methods should be gone" cases wrong.

And it means named properties never resolved even from an array prototype — the shape #9192 calls "the one that already works" only worked for indices. i2.tagged returned undefined. That is now fixed and pinned.

What changed

7 files, +377/−38, all behind the existing recorded-prototype gate.

  • array/indexing.rs — one classification, ArrayCustomProto::{Null, Array, Other}, replaces the array-only probe and drives array_spec_get, array_spec_has_index, array_oob_prototype_get and array_spec_set. The Array lane is bit-for-bit the old code (test262 copyWithin/coerced-values-start-change-*). Other resolves through resolve_inherited_field_from_prototype with the array bound as receiver, so prototype accessors see the right this and further hops are walked. Null inherits nothing and suppresses the implicit Array.prototype/Object.prototype tail. Proxy prototypes deliberately keep their dedicated handling — routing them here too would invoke the has trap twice, which is observable.
  • field_get_set/accessors.rsarray_prototype_property_value consults the recorded prototype before its hardcoded Array.prototype.
  • field_get_set/has_property.rs — new prototype_value_has_property: the [[HasProperty]] an ArrayHeader receiver cannot reach through ordinary_has_property.
  • get_field_by_name_tail.rsarr.__proto__ is the array's [[Prototype]]; arr.constructor resolves through a recorded chain instead of short-circuiting to global Array.
  • native_call_method/handle_methods.rsarr.first() dispatches through the recorded chain.
  • symbol/get.rs — the explicit-prototype symbol walk accepts an array receiver (address-only; chain hops still require a real GC_TYPE_OBJECT).

Cost for a default-prototype array: one extra object_static_prototype probe (an Acquire load on an empty-registry latch) on the named-property-miss path, plus a byte compare for __proto__. The hot element path is cheaper — a duplicate prototype probe was deleted from js_array_get_f64's hole branch, which array_oob_prototype_get already did.

The 19 residuals, scoped by control

Controls run each residual with an array prototype as well as an object one, so "pre-existing" is measured rather than asserted.

14 of 19 are pre-existing and not #9192 — they reproduce identically with an array prototype, and are filed separately:

  • arr[i] = v never observes an inherited index accessor: the strict store's fast lanes bypass array_spec_set entirely.
  • Array.prototype.{join,indexOf,map,forEach}.call(arr) does not fill holes through any custom prototype.

5 are #9192-family and remain, both "perry does more" rather than wrong values: Symbol.iterator is still present on a retargeted array (symbol inheritance is fixed; suppressing the built-in iterator when Array.prototype leaves the chain is not), and for…in omits the prototype's own index key — which control C3b traces to key ordering on the prototype object, not to arrays.

The fixture can fail

test-files/test_gap_9192_array_object_prototype.ts. Built the compiler from the pristine-main tree and compiled the fixture with it: 14 of its 36 output lines diverge from node — e.g. A elem: undefined undefined 3, B inherited: undefined [object Object] undefined false, I array proto: protoSix true undefined 2 function. With the fix it is byte-identical to node, in both the auto-optimize and --no-auto-optimize configurations.

Tests

  • cargo test --release -p perry-runtime --lib -- --test-threads=1: 2852 passed, 0 failed, 4 ignored.
  • Gap suite (603 tests): 592 pass, 0 compile failures, 0 crashes. All array/prototype fixtures pass, including test_gap_typed_arrays and test_gap_array_proto_grow_hole_read. Of 11 parity_fail: 5 are pre-existing gap_snapshot.json entries, 5 are node-side ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND in a fresh worktree with no node_modules, and 1 is byte-identical to node when re-run standalone (a suite flake under load).
  • rustfmt --check clean; scripts/check_test_registration.py green.

On the latch

Untouched, and this fix does not let it stay unlatched — the recorded prototype must still be consulted per read. What changed is that the deopt now buys correct semantics instead of nothing, and the per-array condition is genuinely per-array, so the separate free-bit-13 idea is unaffected and better justified.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Arrays now correctly inherit indexed, named, symbol, accessor, and method properties after their prototype is changed.
    • Prototype operations involving Object.setPrototypeOf, __proto__, and Reflect.setPrototypeOf now behave consistently.
    • Custom null, object, array, and restored default prototypes are handled correctly, including array holes and constructor lookup.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for custom array prototypes, inheritance chains, accessors, and subclass-style methods.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to fb90c

This PR changes array prototype resolution across indexed, named, symbol, reflective, and method operations. At the current head, some custom prototype cases can still return incorrect values, bypass shadowing properties, dispatch the wrong method, or lose prototype behavior after garbage-collector relocation. These are bounded runtime correctness risks that require fixes or explicit owner acceptance before merge.

Honor own and inherited "__proto__" properties.

This branch runs before own-property and custom-prototype lookup. Object.defineProperty(arr, "__proto__", { value: 1 }), or the same property on the recorded prototype, must shadow the inherited Object.prototype accessor. The current code always returns the internal prototype instead.

Resolve the ordinary property lookup first. Call js_object_get_prototype_of only when the inherited Object.prototype.__proto__ accessor wins.

Do not fall through after a non-callable prototype match.

If a custom prototype defines map: 1, dispatch_handle_proto_method resolves that property but returns None because it is not a closure. The subsequent built-in map arm then runs instead of reporting a non-callable invocation.

Distinguish a missing property from a resolved non-callable property. Preserve the resolved value so the normal call validation can report the required TypeError.

Root the array receiver during custom method dispatch.

dispatch_handle_proto_method allocates the key and can run user code in resolve_inherited_field, but it retains handle_id, object, the key, the resolved closure, and the saved implicit this as bare values. A moving collection can relocate those values before reuse. This new array path can then resolve with a stale address or restore stale this.

Create a RuntimeHandleScope inside dispatch_handle_proto_method. Root and reload the receiver, key, resolved value, and saved this around every allocating or user-code call.

Based on learnings, root a NaN-boxed value before an operation that can evacuate its object and reload it from its handle before reuse.

Continue symbol lookup through array prototype hops.

receiver_ptr_from_value_bits accepts an array only for the initial receiver. A later GC_TYPE_ARRAY prototype fails this object-only check and terminates the walk. For Object.setPrototypeOf(arr, []), lookup cannot continue from that array to Array.prototype, so inherited symbols such as Symbol.iterator can be missed.

Allow arrays and lazy arrays as chain owners. Keep resolve_proto_chain_symbol restricted to genuine object headers.

…inherited nothing

`Object.setPrototypeOf(arr, {7: "inherited", foo: "bar"})` recorded the
retarget — latching the process-wide array-index deoptimisation for it — and
then declined to consult it. `array_custom_array_prototype`
(array/indexing.rs) accepted a recorded `[[Prototype]]` only when the
prototype was ITSELF a `GC_TYPE_ARRAY`, and the named-property fallback
(`array_prototype_property_value`) hardcoded `Array.prototype`. So a
retargeted array inherited NOTHING from its new prototype while still
inheriting everything from the old one: `a[7]` and `a.foo` were `undefined`,
`7 in a` was `false`, and `typeof a.map` was still `"function"`. Silent wrong
values, no crash. Perry paid the full deoptimisation for a case it did not
implement.

Measured against `node --experimental-strip-types` with a 136-check
differential probe: 47 divergences before, 19 after — and 8 of the 19 are
pre-existing gaps that reproduce identically with an ARRAY prototype (the
shape that "already worked"), so they are not this bug.

What changed, all behind the existing recorded-prototype gate so an array
with the default chain is untouched:

* `array/indexing.rs` — one classification (`ArrayCustomProto::{Null, Array,
  Other}`) replaces the array-only probe, and drives `array_spec_get`,
  `array_spec_has_index`, `array_oob_prototype_get` (the hot OOB/hole read)
  and `array_spec_set`. The `Array` lane is bit-for-bit the old one (test262
  copyWithin/coerced-values-start-change-*); `Other` resolves through the
  generic object machinery with the array as the receiver, so a prototype
  index accessor sees the right `this` and further hops
  (`Object.create(Array.prototype)`) are walked; `Null` inherits nothing and
  suppresses the implicit `Array.prototype`/`Object.prototype` tail.
* `field_get_set/accessors.rs` — `array_prototype_property_value` consults a
  recorded prototype before falling back to `Array.prototype`. This is what
  makes `a.foo` resolve AND `typeof a.map` become `"undefined"`, and it also
  fixes named properties on an ARRAY prototype, which never worked either.
* `field_get_set/has_property.rs` — `prototype_value_has_property`, the
  `[[HasProperty]]` an `ArrayHeader` receiver cannot reach through
  `ordinary_has_property`.
* `field_get_set/get_field_by_name_tail.rs` — `arr.__proto__` is the array's
  `[[Prototype]]`; `arr.constructor` resolves through a recorded chain
  instead of short-circuiting to the global `Array`.
* `native_call_method/handle_methods.rs` — `arr.first()` dispatches through
  the recorded chain (the ES5 `MyList.prototype = Object.create(
  Array.prototype)` idiom), reusing the Wall-10 handle-prototype walker.
* `symbol/get.rs` — the explicit-prototype symbol walk accepts an array
  receiver, so `arr[SYM]` inherits from a retargeted prototype.

Fixture: `test-files/test_gap_9192_array_object_prototype.ts`, byte-compared
against node. It FAILS on unmodified main (14 of its 36 lines diverge,
every group) and passes identically with the fix. The only existing coverage
of array prototype retargeting, `test_gap_typed_arrays.ts:38`, uses an array
as the prototype — the one shape that already worked.

Tests: `cargo test -p perry-runtime --lib` 2852 passed / 0 failed;
gap suite 592/603 with 0 compile failures and 0 crashes (the 11 failures are
5 pre-existing snapshot entries, 5 node-side missing-npm-module failures in
this worktree, and one suite flake that is byte-identical when re-run
standalone).

…cate; split two files at the cap

The raw-pointer branch used a 0x10000 floor where HANDLE_BAND_MAX is 0x100000,
so it admitted handle-band values and handed them to a dereference; both new
is_valid_obj_ptr guards were unpaired (PerryTS#6279). Splits array/indexing.rs and
get_field_by_name_tail.rs, which crossed the 2000-line cap.

Merged, with a correctness fix pushed onto the branch.

47 → 19 divergences is a big win and the diagnosis is right: an array with a retargeted [[Prototype]] was answering __proto__ and constructor off the implicit array chain while Object.getPrototypeOf answered off the side table, so the two disagreed about the same object.

The defect I fixed is an address-class one, and it's the kind that reads as fine. The new raw-pointer branch was:

} else if top16 == 0 && proto_bits > 0x10000 {
    proto_bits as usize

HANDLE_BAND_MAX is 0x100000 — an order of magnitude above that floor. So values in (0x10000, 0x100000] are handle-band values, and this branch accepted them as raw object pointers and handed them straight to a dereference. 0x10000 looks like a plausible "not a small integer" floor, which is exactly why the ratchet exists. Both new is_valid_obj_ptr guards were also unpaired, which #6279 flags for the same reason: that predicate alone cannot separate a handle from a pointer.

addr_class_inventory.py caught all three (lone-valid-obj-ptr ×2, handle-floor ×1). I replaced the literal floor with crate::value::addr_class::is_above_handle_band and paired both guards with it. Worth noting the gate found this and reading the code did not — I'd read that branch twice before the ratchet told me the constant was wrong.

Also split two files that this PR pushed over the 2000-line cap: array/indexing.rs (2049) and get_field_by_name_tail.rs (2012). Your __proto__/constructor logic moved into object/field_get_set/array_retargeted_proto.rs as two named helpers, which reads better than inline arms anyway; the array-side split moved two test modules and two test-only helpers out, with explicit named re-exports so the existing super::indexing::… paths keep resolving (a glob would not propagate).

Validation: differential probe against node 26.5.1 — Object.setPrototypeOf(arr, base) then greet(), tag, length, indexing, Array.isArray, getPrototypeOf, __proto__, constructor, typeof map/push; a null-prototype array; and restoring Array.prototype and confirming map, constructor and __proto__ all come back. Byte-identical. perry-runtime 2867 passed / 0 failed at RUST_TEST_THREADS=1; perry-codegen 31 suites / 0 failures; all 60 lint gates green.

Validated alongside #9213, #9214, #9216, #9224 and #9230.

* fix(runtime,codegen): #9410 — an Error subclass has a .stack and an [object Error] tag

`class A extends Error {}` produced instances whose `.stack` was `undefined`
and whose `Object.prototype.toString` tag was `[object Object]`. The base
class was always fine, so only subclasses were affected — and the claude-code
bundle has 93 of them and 106 `.stack` reads, which is why `claude doctor`
prints ` -     at <anonymous>` (120 bytes) under perry where node prints ~10
real frames (14,573 bytes). No error, just a missing trace.

One root cause behind both symptoms: an Error subclass instance is
deliberately an ordinary GC_TYPE_OBJECT class instance rather than a
GC_TYPE_ERROR ErrorHeader (so the subclass's own fields have somewhere to
live). `alloc_error` — the only site that fills `ErrorHeader.stack` — is
therefore never reached, `Error.prototype` carries no `stack` to inherit, and
`js_object_to_string`'s `[object Error]` branch keys on the same GC header
byte.

The registry that answers "does this class_id extend a builtin Error?" already
existed and was already consulted by `instanceof Error`,
`util.types.isNativeError`, `Error.prototype.toString`'s subclass arm and
prototype-chain resolution. Neither the tag nor the stack asked it.

- to_string_tag.rs: tag an `extends_builtin_error` instance "Error", set
  before the `Symbol.toStringTag` hook so a subclass's own tag still wins
  (§20.1.3.6 consults the tag property last).
- error.rs: `js_error_subclass_capture_stack` installs the own,
  non-enumerable, configurable `stack` accessor node installs. The FRAME is
  captured at the construction site; the `name: message` head is formatted on
  read, because `constructor(m) { super(m); this.name = "X" }` assigns after
  `super()` returns and node reports the assigned name. `prepareStackTrace`
  still wins; the setter redefines `stack` as a data property so
  `err.stack = ""` keeps working.
- class_constructors.rs, this_super_call.rs, new.rs: call it from the four
  sites that already stamped `message`/`name` and stopped there. In the
  dynamic-`new` replay it moves above the message guard, which returns early
  for `new X()` with no argument — exactly the instances that would otherwise
  still have no trace.

test-files/test_gap_9410_error_subclass_stack.ts byte-matches node across nine
subclass shapes plus controls. Demonstrated failing on a compiler built from
unfixed origin/main.

* fix(codegen): #9412 — a CommonJS entry keeps Node's ticks-first ordering

    require("path");                 // delete this line and perry matched node
    const o = [];
    process.nextTick(() => o.push("nextTick"));
    Promise.resolve().then(() => o.push("p1"));
    (async () => { await null; o.push("await"); })();
    setTimeout(() => console.log(JSON.stringify(o)), 20);
    // node:  ["nextTick","p1","await"]
    // perry: ["p1","await","nextTick"]   (5/5 deterministic)

The deferral itself is right, and measurement says so: node 26 runs the same
file as .cjs -> ["nextTick","p1","await"], as .mjs -> ["p1","await","nextTick"].
An ES module evaluates inside its module job's promise chain, so its first tick
drain lands after the promise queue — which is what `js_mark_entry_module_esm`
(#788) models. It was being applied to the wrong module kind.

Entry codegen asked "is this an ES module?" as `imports or exports or
top-level await`. A bare `require(` with no top-level `import` classifies the
entry as CommonJS, and `cjs_wrap` then rewrites it to ESM — injecting
`import { createRequire as __perry_cjs_create_require } from 'node:module'`
and `export default _cjs`. Both halves became true for every CommonJS program.
The `require("path")` itself contributes no import; it folds to a
native-module reference. Every real bundle requires a builtin and every
minimal fixture doesn't, so the ordering was right in exactly the programs a
test suite contains.

- collectors/cjs_scaffolding.rs: `is_cjs_wrapped_module`, keyed on the local
  name the wrap's synthetic `createRequire` import binds — recognised from the
  HIR, so a template change degrades to "not wrapped" rather than to a wrong
  answer, and a user's own `import { createRequire } from 'node:module'` is
  not mistaken for it (the match is on the alias, not the specifier).
- codegen/entry.rs: gate only the `js_mark_entry_module_esm` call on it. The
  `is_esm_entry` below keeps its meaning for GlobalDeclarationInstantiation —
  a CommonJS module's top-level functions are not global-object properties
  either — and that predicate is mirrored in perry-hir's `lower_module_fn`,
  which runs before the wrap flag is knowable here.
- cjs_wrap/preamble_canary_tests.rs: a template canary in the #7139/#7152
  family, plus a negative control so the fix cannot drift the other way.

test-parity/node-suite/globals/process-next-tick-require-order.ts byte-matches
node as a .cts CommonJS copy (the runner's existing retry);
test-files/test_gap_9412_entry_tick_order.ts pins the ESM side so the fix
cannot become "stop deferring, always". Both demonstrated failing / passing as
appropriate on a compiler built from unfixed origin/main.

* test: #9411 — cover `#x in o` from a static method, static block and arrow

#9411 reports `class A { #x = 1; static has(o) { return #x in o } }` answering
`false` for `A.has(new A())`. It does not reproduce on origin/main
(367f9aa, x86_64 Linux) in any of ~25 shapes: the exact snippet, .ts/.js/
.mjs/.cjs, a CJS-wrapped entry, `perry compile` / bare `perry` / `perry run`,
with and without the on-disk cache, duplicate class names in sibling scopes /
blocks / IIFE module wrappers, a cross-module import, `export default`, a
namespace, a conditional class expression, private methods/getters/setters,
static private fields, subclass instances, a field with no initializer, a
field assigned only in the constructor, a static arrow field, a map callback /
async / generator static method, and a frozen, sealed or bulk-allocated
receiver. See the issue for the full matrix.

What the existing fixtures did NOT cover is the shape the issue names — the
brand check evaluated from a STATIC method — so this adds it. Both
test_private_name_brand_check.ts and test_issue_5893_private_brand_freshness.ts
only exercise `#x in o` from an instance method (or a static field's brand
from a static method), and neither covers `#method` / accessor brands from a
static method, a static block, a subclass instance, or a superclass brand seen
through a subclass instance.

Byte-matches node 26 today; it is coverage, not a regression test for a fix.
The two asymmetries between the brand check and the private-field READ that
would produce exactly the reported `false` are noted on the issue:
`js_private_brand_check` returns false for `declaring_class_id == 0` where
`js_private_guard` is permissive, and a `Some(false)` evaluation-brand verdict
short-circuits the per-field marker fallback.

* fix(runtime): route error-subclass stack handles through the rooting combinators

Each site classified by whether its callee can collect: js_object_set_field_by_name_nonenum
and ensure_key_in_keys_array can allocate or run JS, so they use across_*;
own_key_present and js_closure_set_capture_bits cannot, so with_const_ptr.
Also pairs every is_valid_obj_ptr with is_above_handle_band (#9219).
