… program (PerryTS#9402) `claude auto-mode defaults | head -2` exited 141 (128 + SIGPIPE) under Perry and 0 under Node, deterministically. Every pipeline that stops reading early hit it: `| head`, `| grep -q`, `| less` then `q`, a client that closed its socket. A Perry program has its own C `main`, emitted by codegen, so it never runs Rust's `std::rt` startup — and that startup is where an ordinary Rust binary gets SIGPIPE set to SIG_IGN. The compiled program therefore inherited the signal's default disposition and died mid-write, with no JS-visible event and nothing to catch. Node ignores the signal and lets the failing write(2) return EPIPE to the writer instead. `ignore_sigpipe_at_startup()` installs SIG_IGN once per process and only over SIG_DFL, so an embedder's own disposition and a later `process.on('SIGPIPE')` are both untouched. It is called from `js_gc_init`, the first runtime call of every `main` / `perry_module_init`, so every compiled program gets it before a byte can be written. Unix only: Windows has no SIGPIPE. Ignoring the signal alone would have traded exit 141 for exit 134 — `std`'s `println!` turns the resulting EPIPE into a panic and Perry builds with `panic = "abort"`. Node's console is specified never to throw, so the `console.*` family's print macros are shadowed with writers that drop the write error. The shadowing is confined to the `builtins` tree, alongside the existing harmonyos hilog override; diagnostics elsewhere keep `std`'s macros. `fs.writeSync(1, …)` to a closed pipe now throws EPIPE, matching Node — write errors still reach JavaScript rather than being swallowed. test-files/test_gap_9402_sigpipe_truncating_consumer.ts re-runs itself through bash, pipes 50000 lines into `head -2` and reports the WRITER's status. Byte-compared against node 26.5.1: node `writer-status=0`; a compiler built from unfixed origin/main reports `writer-status=141`; with this change, identical to node.
…TS#9401) `claude -p $'\xff\xfe\x80abc\xc3\x28'` died with SIGABRT and a raw Rust backtrace — "panicked at library/std/src/env.rs:878:51: called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value" — where Node prints the program's own output. `std::env::args()` panics on an argument that is not valid Unicode, and non-UTF-8 filenames are ordinary on Linux, so anything that passes a path through reached it. Node decodes argv leniently: every invalid byte becomes U+FFFD. Verified against node 26.5.1 — `$'\xff\xfe\x80abc\xc3\x28'` arrives as the eight code points fffd fffd fffd 61 62 63 fffd 28, byte-for-byte `String::from_utf8_lossy`. One `process_args_lossy()` over `std::env::args_os()` now backs every argv reader in the runtime, so a single bad byte cannot resurrect the abort in a path nobody thought to check. There were NINE, all reachable, and the panic was not confined to `process.argv`: - os.rs `js_process_argv` — `process.argv` - node_submodules/trace_events.rs — reads argv from `js_gc_init`, so the process died before a line of JavaScript ran, whatever the program did - process/permission.rs (x3) — the permission-model flag scan - process/report.rs (x2) — `process.report` - process/attributes.rs — `process.title` - cluster.rs (x2) — cluster exec-path defaulting - child_process/options.rs — self-launch detection in `spawn` - process.rs `process_argv0_string` — `process.argv0` / `execPath` Three more outside the runtime, same shape, same fix: perry-stdlib and perry-ext-commander (`program.parse()` with no explicit argv), and the compiler CLI's own arguments in perry/src/{main,update_policy}.rs, so `perry compile` on a non-UTF-8 path reports a diagnostic instead of a backtrace. `std::env::var()` needs no equivalent change: it returns Err for a non-Unicode value rather than panicking, and the runtime has no `env::var(..).unwrap()`. test-files/test_gap_9401_non_utf8_argv.ts re-runs itself through `sh` (which is byte-oriented, so it can build an argument the source file cannot contain) and prints the decoded length, code points and UTF-8 bytes. Byte-compared against node 26.5.1: a compiler built from unfixed origin/main reports `child-status: null / child-signal: SIGABRT`; with this change, identical to node. Not touched, same shape, reported rather than changed: perry-ui-gtk4 src/tray.rs, perry-ui-macos src/app.rs, perry-ui src/bin/styling-matrix.rs.
…de (PerryTS#9394) const a = [1]; Object.freeze(a); a[0] = 9; // node silent, Perry TypeError const a2 = [1]; Object.freeze(a2); a2[5] = 9; // node silent, Perry TypeError Object.defineProperty(a3, 0, {writable:false}); a3[0]=9; // node silent, Perry TypeError Object.preventExtensions(a4); a4[5] = 9; // node silent, Perry TypeError const o = {x:1}; Object.freeze(o); o.x = 9; // node silent, Perry silent (correct) ES2024 6.2.5.7 (PutValue) calls Set(O, P, V, Throw) with Throw = IsStrictReference, so a failed [[Set]] throws ONLY in strict mode — for an Array exactly as for the ordinary object that was already right. A CommonJS bundle is sloppy code from top to bottom, which is where this surfaced. Introduced by PerryTS#9326 (the merge of PerryTS#9297, live again via PerryTS#9370). That change is right about what it set out to fix — an inherited accessor must run, an inherited non-writable index must reject — but it reached the rejection by routing the cold element-store continuation through the STRICT runtime entry unconditionally. The inline store guard declines exactly the receivers whose write can be rejected (frozen, sealed, non-extensible, descriptor-bearing, prototype-sensitive), so every one of those shapes arrived there and threw. The fix carries the assignment's own Throw flag, which codegen already had and already passes to the ordinary-object [[Set]] and to `js_dyn_index_set_strict`. Finding the target is unchanged in both modes — the PerryTS#9220 inherited-descriptor walk still runs, so a prototype setter still fires on a sloppy assignment; only the rejection differs. - codegen: `assignment_strict` reaches `js_typed_feedback_array_index_set_fallback_boxed` and `js_typed_feedback_array_set_index_or_string` (one new trailing i32 each). - array/indexing.rs: the strict entry's body is strictness-parameterised (`js_array_set_f64_extend_sloppy` is the sloppy twin); `array_spec_set` takes Throw and returns the receiver unchanged instead of throwing when it is false. Array mutators keep Throw = true: their own algorithms specify it regardless of the calling code. - value/dyn_index.rs: `js_dyn_index_set_strict` already carried the flag and its array arm forced true; it now uses it. The realloc arm in expr/index.rs deliberately keeps the strict entry: it runs only for a receiver the guard already accepted, which cannot reject. test-files/test_gap_9394_array_element_store_strictness.cts is a `.cts`, so it is a CommonJS script in BOTH runtimes, with a sloppy arm and a "use strict" arm. BOTH ARMS ARE ASSERTED. Asserting only the throw is precisely what let this through: PerryTS#9326 shipped with a 64-check differential and a 205-line gap fixture, all green, none of it sloppy code. Byte-compared against node 26.5.1; a compiler built from unfixed origin/main reports TypeError for six sloppy cases where node is silent, and with this change is identical to node. PerryTS#9326's own fixture (test_gap_9220_9221_array_proto_paths.ts, an ES module and therefore strict) is unchanged and still byte-identical to node. Unit tests assert both arms too: `element_store_rejection_throws_only_in_strict_mode`, and PerryTS#9326's `typed_feedback_array_set_guards_reject_frozen_arrays`, which now asserts the silent sloppy call alongside the strict throw. Both were confirmed to FAIL with the sloppy entry rewired to the strict one. Three pieces of test infrastructure had to admit a `.cts` fixture at all, each of which would have made it a DARK TEST: the suite's `find … -name '*.ts'` does not match `foo.cts`, so the harness never selected it (`--filter test_gap_9394` selected 0 tests before, and PASSes after); `basename … .ts` named it `…strictness.c`; and `.gitignore` re-included only `.ts`/`.tsx` under test-files/, so it could not be committed. Not addressed here, found while writing the fixture: Perry emits `js_put_value_set(..., strict = 0)` at EVERY property-set site, so a rejected strict ordinary-object write is silent where Node throws — the mirror-image gap on the object path.

* fix(runtime): ignore SIGPIPE so a truncating consumer cannot kill the program (#9402) `claude auto-mode defaults | head -2` exited 141 (128 + SIGPIPE) under Perry and 0 under Node, deterministically. Every pipeline that stops reading early hit it: `| head`, `| grep -q`, `| less` then `q`, a client that closed its socket. A Perry program has its own C `main`, emitted by codegen, so it never runs Rust's `std::rt` startup — and that startup is where an ordinary Rust binary gets SIGPIPE set to SIG_IGN. The compiled program therefore inherited the signal's default disposition and died mid-write, with no JS-visible event and nothing to catch. Node ignores the signal and lets the failing write(2) return EPIPE to the writer instead. `ignore_sigpipe_at_startup()` installs SIG_IGN once per process and only over SIG_DFL, so an embedder's own disposition and a later `process.on('SIGPIPE')` are both untouched. It is called from `js_gc_init`, the first runtime call of every `main` / `perry_module_init`, so every compiled program gets it before a byte can be written. Unix only: Windows has no SIGPIPE. Ignoring the signal alone would have traded exit 141 for exit 134 — `std`'s `println!` turns the resulting EPIPE into a panic and Perry builds with `panic = "abort"`. Node's console is specified never to throw, so the `console.*` family's print macros are shadowed with writers that drop the write error. The shadowing is confined to the `builtins` tree, alongside the existing harmonyos hilog override; diagnostics elsewhere keep `std`'s macros. `fs.writeSync(1, …)` to a closed pipe now throws EPIPE, matching Node — write errors still reach JavaScript rather than being swallowed. test-files/test_gap_9402_sigpipe_truncating_consumer.ts re-runs itself through bash, pipes 50000 lines into `head -2` and reports the WRITER's status. Byte-compared against node 26.5.1: node `writer-status=0`; a compiler built from unfixed origin/main reports `writer-status=141`; with this change, identical to node. * fix(runtime): a non-UTF-8 argv byte must not abort the process (#9401) `claude -p $'\xff\xfe\x80abc\xc3\x28'` died with SIGABRT and a raw Rust backtrace — "panicked at library/std/src/env.rs:878:51: called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value" — where Node prints the program's own output. `std::env::args()` panics on an argument that is not valid Unicode, and non-UTF-8 filenames are ordinary on Linux, so anything that passes a path through reached it. Node decodes argv leniently: every invalid byte becomes U+FFFD. Verified against node 26.5.1 — `$'\xff\xfe\x80abc\xc3\x28'` arrives as the eight code points fffd fffd fffd 61 62 63 fffd 28, byte-for-byte `String::from_utf8_lossy`. One `process_args_lossy()` over `std::env::args_os()` now backs every argv reader in the runtime, so a single bad byte cannot resurrect the abort in a path nobody thought to check. There were NINE, all reachable, and the panic was not confined to `process.argv`: - os.rs `js_process_argv` — `process.argv` - node_submodules/trace_events.rs — reads argv from `js_gc_init`, so the process died before a line of JavaScript ran, whatever the program did - process/permission.rs (x3) — the permission-model flag scan - process/report.rs (x2) — `process.report` - process/attributes.rs — `process.title` - cluster.rs (x2) — cluster exec-path defaulting - child_process/options.rs — self-launch detection in `spawn` - process.rs `process_argv0_string` — `process.argv0` / `execPath` Three more outside the runtime, same shape, same fix: perry-stdlib and perry-ext-commander (`program.parse()` with no explicit argv), and the compiler CLI's own arguments in perry/src/{main,update_policy}.rs, so `perry compile` on a non-UTF-8 path reports a diagnostic instead of a backtrace. `std::env::var()` needs no equivalent change: it returns Err for a non-Unicode value rather than panicking, and the runtime has no `env::var(..).unwrap()`. test-files/test_gap_9401_non_utf8_argv.ts re-runs itself through `sh` (which is byte-oriented, so it can build an argument the source file cannot contain) and prints the decoded length, code points and UTF-8 bytes. Byte-compared against node 26.5.1: a compiler built from unfixed origin/main reports `child-status: null / child-signal: SIGABRT`; with this change, identical to node. Not touched, same shape, reported rather than changed: perry-ui-gtk4 src/tray.rs, perry-ui-macos src/app.rs, perry-ui src/bin/styling-matrix.rs. --------- Co-authored-by: Ralph Küpper <ralph@skelpo.com>

…de (from #9418) (#9426) * fix(runtime): a rejected array element write throws only in strict mode (#9394) const a = [1]; Object.freeze(a); a[0] = 9; // node silent, Perry TypeError const a2 = [1]; Object.freeze(a2); a2[5] = 9; // node silent, Perry TypeError Object.defineProperty(a3, 0, {writable:false}); a3[0]=9; // node silent, Perry TypeError Object.preventExtensions(a4); a4[5] = 9; // node silent, Perry TypeError const o = {x:1}; Object.freeze(o); o.x = 9; // node silent, Perry silent (correct) ES2024 6.2.5.7 (PutValue) calls Set(O, P, V, Throw) with Throw = IsStrictReference, so a failed [[Set]] throws ONLY in strict mode — for an Array exactly as for the ordinary object that was already right. A CommonJS bundle is sloppy code from top to bottom, which is where this surfaced. Introduced by #9326 (the merge of #9297, live again via #9370). That change is right about what it set out to fix — an inherited accessor must run, an inherited non-writable index must reject — but it reached the rejection by routing the cold element-store continuation through the STRICT runtime entry unconditionally. The inline store guard declines exactly the receivers whose write can be rejected (frozen, sealed, non-extensible, descriptor-bearing, prototype-sensitive), so every one of those shapes arrived there and threw. The fix carries the assignment's own Throw flag, which codegen already had and already passes to the ordinary-object [[Set]] and to `js_dyn_index_set_strict`. Finding the target is unchanged in both modes — the #9220 inherited-descriptor walk still runs, so a prototype setter still fires on a sloppy assignment; only the rejection differs. - codegen: `assignment_strict` reaches `js_typed_feedback_array_index_set_fallback_boxed` and `js_typed_feedback_array_set_index_or_string` (one new trailing i32 each). - array/indexing.rs: the strict entry's body is strictness-parameterised (`js_array_set_f64_extend_sloppy` is the sloppy twin); `array_spec_set` takes Throw and returns the receiver unchanged instead of throwing when it is false. Array mutators keep Throw = true: their own algorithms specify it regardless of the calling code. - value/dyn_index.rs: `js_dyn_index_set_strict` already carried the flag and its array arm forced true; it now uses it. The realloc arm in expr/index.rs deliberately keeps the strict entry: it runs only for a receiver the guard already accepted, which cannot reject. test-files/test_gap_9394_array_element_store_strictness.cts is a `.cts`, so it is a CommonJS script in BOTH runtimes, with a sloppy arm and a "use strict" arm. BOTH ARMS ARE ASSERTED. Asserting only the throw is precisely what let this through: #9326 shipped with a 64-check differential and a 205-line gap fixture, all green, none of it sloppy code. Byte-compared against node 26.5.1; a compiler built from unfixed origin/main reports TypeError for six sloppy cases where node is silent, and with this change is identical to node. #9326's own fixture (test_gap_9220_9221_array_proto_paths.ts, an ES module and therefore strict) is unchanged and still byte-identical to node. Unit tests assert both arms too: `element_store_rejection_throws_only_in_strict_mode`, and #9326's `typed_feedback_array_set_guards_reject_frozen_arrays`, which now asserts the silent sloppy call alongside the strict throw. Both were confirmed to FAIL with the sloppy entry rewired to the strict one. Three pieces of test infrastructure had to admit a `.cts` fixture at all, each of which would have made it a DARK TEST: the suite's `find … -name '*.ts'` does not match `foo.cts`, so the harness never selected it (`--filter test_gap_9394` selected 0 tests before, and PASSes after); `basename … .ts` named it `…strictness.c`; and `.gitignore` re-included only `.ts`/`.tsx` under test-files/, so it could not be committed. Not addressed here, found while writing the fixture: Perry emits `js_put_value_set(..., strict = 0)` at EVERY property-set site, so a rejected strict ordinary-object write is silent where Node throws — the mirror-image gap on the object path. * refactor(runtime): one exit for prototype-handled array stores #9394's two sloppy-mode no-op returns took indexing.rs from 7 raw-handle sites to 9, over its ceiling. Routing every prototype-handled path through a single exit re-derives the receiver once instead of three times, which is fewer real re-reads rather than a wrapper that only hides them. --------- Co-authored-by: Ralph Küpper <ralph@skelpo.com>

All three commits are now on For the third I did the restructure I suggested rather than handing it back. Every path the inherited property fully handles now leaves through a single exit, so the receiver is re-derived once instead of three times — genuinely fewer re-reads, which is what brought Semantics checked rather than assumed: strict mode still throws |

Three independent correctness fixes found by a differential stress-test of claude-code, one commit each.
cargo test -p perry-runtime --lib -- --test-threads=1: 2919 passed, 0 failed. All three fixtures byte-identical tonode --experimental-strip-types, and each demonstrated failing on a compiler built from unfixedorigin/mainbefore the fix.#9402 — SIGPIPE killed every compiled program
The root cause is structural, not a missing line. A perry program has its own C
mainemitted by codegen, so it never runs Rust'sstd::rtstartup — which is exactly where an ordinary Rust binary getsSIGPIPEset toSIG_IGN. Every compiled program inherited the default disposition and died mid-write on any truncating consumer (| head,| grep -q,| lessand quit).Fix:
ignore_sigpipe_at_startup()inos/signal.rs, called fromjs_gc_init— the first runtime call of everymain/perry_module_init, so every program gets it. Installed once and only overSIG_DFL, so an embedder's disposition and a laterprocess.on('SIGPIPE')are untouched.The half a one-liner would have missed: ignoring the signal alone trades exit 141 for exit 134, because
std'sprintln!panics on the resultingEPIPEand perry buildspanic = "abort". Node's console never throws (node -e 'for(;;)console.log(1)' | head -2→ rc 0), so theconsole.*family's macros are shadowed inbuiltins/mod.rswith writers that drop the write error. Runtime diagnostics keepstd's macros.Write errors still surface where node surfaces them:
fs.writeSync(1, …)into a closed pipe throwsEPIPEin both. Residual, documented in the changelog:process.stdout.writeswallowsEPIPEwhere node emits an'error'event and exits 1 — stream plumbing, not signals.Test re-runs itself through bash and pipes 50,000 lines into
head -2, reporting the writer's status: node 0, unfixed main 141, fixed 0.#9401 — a non-UTF-8 argv byte aborted the process

Oneprocess_args_lossy()overargs_os()now backs every reader.The grep turned up nine sites in the runtime, all reachable — and

perry-stdlib/commander.rs,perry-ext-commander, and the compiler CLI itself); three UI-crate sites of the same shape reported rather than touched.env::var()needs nothing — it returnsErrfor non-Unicode, and there are nounwraps on it.Test re-runs itself through
sh(byte-oriented, so it can build an argument the source file cannot contain): unfixed main giveschild-signal: SIGABRT; fixed matches node.#9394 — sloppy-mode array element stores threw
Root cause: #9326 switched the cold element-store continuation to
js_array_set_index_or_string_strictunconditionally. The inline store guard declines exactly the receivers whose write can be rejected — frozen, sealed, non-extensible, descriptor-bearing, prototype-sensitive — so every rejectable shape arrived there and threw, regardless of the assignment's strictness.Fix: carry the assignment's own
Throwflag, which codegen already had and already passes tojs_put_value_set. Target-finding is unchanged in both modes — #9220's inherited-descriptor walk still runs, so a prototype setter still fires on a sloppy assignment; only the rejection differs. Array mutators keepThrow = true, as their own algorithms specify.The fixture is a
.ctsso it is CommonJS in both runtimes, with a sloppy arm and a"use strict"arm — both asserted, since asserting only the throw is what let this through. #9326's own fixture is ESM (therefore strict) and is unchanged and still byte-identical. Two unit tests, both confirmed to fail when the sloppy entry is rewired to the strict one.Three findings handed off rather than folded in
1. The
.ctsfixture would have been a dark test three times over.run_parity_tests.shdiscovers withfind … -name '*.ts', which does not matchfoo.cts—--filter test_gap_9394selected 0 tests and reported success;basename … .tsnamed it…strictness.c; and.gitignorere-included only.ts/.tsxundertest-files/, so it could not be committed. All three fixed here. Any future fixture whose semantics depend on the module goal would have hit this.2. Perry never throws on a rejected strict ordinary-object write — the mirror image of #9394 on the object path. Codegen emits
js_put_value_set(..., strict = 0)at every property-set site, so"use strict"; Object.freeze(o); o.x = 9is silent where node throws. Deliberately out of scope here; deserves its own issue.3. Module-init code is lowered with
is_strict_fn: falseeven for an ESM. It happens not to bite #9394 becausea[i] = vcarries real strictness throughExpr::PutValueSet, but anyExpr::IndexSetproduced by another lowering (for-heads, destructuring) reads the wrong strictness at module top level.Summary by CodeRabbit
