fix(codegen): PropertySet rejections honour sloppy mode (#9459); a write to an unread scalar-replaced field no longer stores through null (#9460) by proggeramlug · Pull Request #9519 · PerryTS/perry

proggeramlug · 2026-09-02T10:53:38Z

Two commits. The second one's issue premise did not survive contact with the repro.

#9460 — the crash never needed the exceptions

The issue said: several frozen for-of-head rejections, then a for-of on an unfrozen object, SIGSEGV — doesn't reproduce in isolation. Following the brief's sequencing, the "use strict" variant was built first on unfixed main — and exited 0, node-identical. Not because the crash needs the over-throw: because the original isolation test was confounded. The real repro is three lines, no exception anywhere:

"use strict";
const o: any = { x: 1 };
o.x = 7;                 // SIGSEGV

The condition is a write to a field nothing ever reads. The old repro printed o.x afterwards — and that read is what reserved the slot and hid the crash. "Several rejections first" was the shape it was found in, not the condition.

Root cause: let_stmt.rs scalar-replaces a non-escaping object literal and creates field slots only for fields in non_escaping_new_used_fields — which tracked reads. ctx.locals[id] is registered as an uninitialized dummy alloca; a store to a slotless field falls through to the class-field/Ptr<Shape> lanes, which load the dummy as an ObjectHeader* and store through null + 16. property_get.rs has carried the matching guard for years — its comment literally says "crashes on the dummy slot" — but the write side never got it, on three lanes (PropertySet, PutValueSet — for which the collector had no arm at all — and PropertyUpdate).

Fixed at the source: a write now reserves a slot in both collectors (#9024's rule one step further), with a property_set.rs backstop. Not exception transport, not rooting — PERRY_GC_PROTECT_FROMSPACE changes nothing; the address was never a heap object. Confirmed to survive the #9459 fix alone (still SIGSEGV) before being fixed itself.

#9459 — `Expr::PropertySet` rejections now consult strictness

+=/-=/logical-assignment, for-of heads, and destructuring in expression position lower to Expr::PropertySet, whose tail reaches a runtime entry with no strict parameter that rejects by throwing — so sloppy code crashed where node silently no-ops. (o.x++ was right via PropertyUpdate; plain o.x = 9 was right via PutValueSet; [o.x] = arr in statement position was already correct — only expression position was broken, a refinement of the issue.) The same hole existed on Expr::IndexSet's object-by-name arms — #9426 carried the flag only to the array lanes, so o[k] += 1 still threw.

Fix follows #9426's precedent: strictness comes from the context (ctx.is_strict_fn at dispatch, PutValueSet::strict at the two synthesizing sites) — not a new HIR field. The 181-site audit is why that is right and not just convenient: 181 mentions = 62 destructuring patterns + 119 constructions, of which 54 are production — and 37 of the 54 have no enclosing strictness to copy (collectors rebuilding nodes to probe, transform clones, synthesized internal stores). A stored field would have needed a default at exactly the sites where a wrong default hides. Sloppy stores route to js_put_value_set(…, 0); the class-field fast arm is kept via try_lower_sloppy_class_field_store; strict lowering is byte-identical.

Verification

Sloppy o.x += 1 on a frozen object over-throws: Expr::PropertySet carries no strictness field at all #9459 fixture (.cts, both modes): 19 lines diverging on unfixed main — all sloppy arm — byte-identical after. Covers all six compound operators, for-of heads (named/computed), destructuring in statement and expression position, o[k] +=, against frozen / sealed / non-writable own / inherited non-writable / getter-only own+inherited / inherited-setter / preventExtensions / class-field / arr.length — with short-circuit and accepted-store controls in both modes.
SIGSEGV after several frozen for-of-head rejections, then a for-of head on an UNfrozen object #9460 fixture: SIGSEGV before (and after Sloppy o.x += 1 on a frozen object over-throws: Expr::PropertySet carries no strictness field at all #9459 alone), byte-identical after; the original r_lanes.cts now matches node exactly.
perry-codegen lib 1383/0; perry-runtime lib 2974/0; targeted IR suites (typed_feedback, native_proof_regressions, scalar_replaced_slot_roots, class_field_store_pointer, shadow_slot_hygiene) 334/0.
Parity test_gap_9 filter 46/46; object filter 48/3 with all three failures pre-registered in known_failures.json, unrelated.
Every moved IR expectation explained: three tests moved, all the same cause — fixture builders hard-coding is_strict: false while their subject lives on the strict lane (the same move fix: ES module init is lowered strict (#9423); a rejected strict arr.length throws for a non-writable descriptor (#9422) #9458 made for init_is_strict). Each is now asserted on the strict lane and given a sloppy twin, so no invariant is pinned on one of two tails. One initially-vacuous assertion (matched the declare line) was caught and fixed to match the call.

Found and filed separately

#9495: strict o.x += 1 against an inherited non-writable / accessor property skips the prototype walk — no throw, the setter never runs, an own property is created. Wrong in both modes on unfixed main; this PR fixes the sloppy half as a side effect; the strict half means retargeting the typed-feedback store site that the #7480/#5093 IR gates pin, so it is its own change. The fixture carries the sloppy arm plus strict = twins as a baseline.

No version bump — maintainer bumps at merge per CLAUDE.md.

Closes #9459. Closes #9460.

…] = arr` no longer throws (PerryTS#9459) // sloppy (.cts, no "use strict") const o = {x:1}; Object.freeze(o); o.x += 1; // node: silent Perry: TypeError for (o.x of [7]) {} // node: silent Perry: TypeError [o.x] = [7]; // node: silent Perry: TypeError (expression position) o[k] += 1; // node: silent Perry: TypeError o.x++; // node: silent Perry: silent (correct, Expr::PropertyUpdate) o.x = 9; // node: silent Perry: silent (correct, Expr::PutValueSet) ES2024 6.2.5.7 (PutValue) performs Set(O, P, V, Throw) with Throw = IsStrictReference(ref), and 10.1.9 (OrdinarySet) reports `false` -- not a throw -- for a non-writable own or inherited data property, an accessor with no setter, and a new property on a non-extensible object. The reference's own strictness is what turns that `false` into a TypeError. The ordinary-object mirror of PerryTS#9394 (arrays, fixed by PerryTS#9426) and the opposite direction from PerryTS#9422 (an under-throw in strict code). A CommonJS bundle is sloppy top to bottom, so this was a hard failure: a spurious TypeError stopped a program node runs to completion. Root cause: `Expr::PropertySet` carries no strictness field at all, and its codegen tail reaches `js_typed_feedback_object_set_field_by_name_fast` -> `js_object_set_field_by_name`, which has no `strict` parameter and rejects by throwing. `o.x++` was right because it lowers to `Expr::PropertyUpdate` (carries `ctx.current_strict`); `o.x = 9` was right because it lowers to `Expr::PutValueSet` (carries `strict`). Only the spellings that lower to `Expr::PropertySet` -- compound and logical assignment, for-of heads, expression-position destructuring targets -- had no answer to give. The same hole existed on `Expr::IndexSet`'s OBJECT-by-name arms, which PerryTS#9426 left behind when it carried the flag to that node's array element lanes. The flag comes from the CONTEXT, exactly as PerryTS#9426 did for `Expr::IndexSet`: `ctx.is_strict_fn` at the ordinary dispatch, `PutValueSet::strict` at the two sites that synthesize a `PropertySet` from a `PutValue`. Deliberately not a new HIR field: `Expr::PropertySet` has 181 mentions across the workspace (119 constructions, 54 in production code), and a large minority live in collectors and transform passes that REBUILD an existing node with no strictness context to copy -- exactly where a wrong default hides. `FnCtx::is_strict_fn` is already the audited answer for the enclosing code (`Function::is_strict`, `Expr::Closure::is_strict`, `Module::init_is_strict` from PerryTS#9458, and a hard `true` for class methods). Sloppy stores route to `js_put_value_set(target, key, value, receiver, 0)` -- the receiver-aware [[Set]] sloppy `o.x = v` has always used -- so the spellings agree instead of diverging by lane. The class-field fast arm is preserved through `try_lower_sloppy_class_field_store` (PerryTS#7288/PerryTS#5094), whose PerryTS#5093 inline precheck declines every receiver whose store could be rejected, so that arm is mode-independent and only its miss needed a sloppy tail. Strict lowering is byte-identical to before. Two IR tests moved, both because their fixture builders hard-code `is_strict: false` while their subject (the typed-feedback PropertySet site, the property-id store ABI) lives on the strict lane -- the same expectation move PerryTS#9458 made when `Module::init_is_strict` landed. Each is now asserted on the strict lane AND given a sloppy twin, so neither invariant is pinned on only one of two tails. Verified byte-identical to `node --experimental-strip-types` on test-files/test_gap_9459_property_set_strictness.cts (19 lines differed on unfixed origin/main); perry-codegen --lib 1383 passed / 0 failed; targeted IR suites (typed_feedback, native_proof_regressions, scalar_replaced_slot_roots, class_field_store_pointer_test, shadow_slot_hygiene) 334 passed / 0 failed. Not changed, both pre-existing on main and documented in the fixture: `caller`/`arguments` keep their `js_object_set_field_by_name` route in both modes (that entry's poisoned-accessor handling is not a Throw-flag decision), and strict `+=` against an INHERITED rejecting receiver still skips the prototype walk -- a missing walk rather than a missing Throw flag, filed as PerryTS#9495.

…ld that is never read (PerryTS#9460) "use strict"; const o = { x: 1 }; o.x = 7; // SIGSEGV -- nothing reads o.x const p = { x: 1 }; for (p.x of [7]) {} // SIGSEGV, sloppy or strict const q = { x: 1 }; q.y++; // TypeError "Cannot assign to read only property 'y'" Three lines of ordinary code, in both modes. The fault is `str d0, [x8]` with x8 = 0x10 -- a raw field store through a NULL receiver at null + sizeof(ObjectHeader). `stmt/let_stmt.rs`'s scalar-replacement arm elides the heap allocation for a non-escaping `new` and gives each field a stack alloca. For the synthetic `__AnonShape_*` class an object literal lowers to, it creates slots only for the fields in `non_escaping_new_used_fields` -- which tracked READS only, on the argument that a store nothing ever reads is unobservable and its slot can be elided. That is true of the STORE and false of the SLOT: the same arm registers `ctx.locals[id]` as an uninitialized DUMMY alloca (the binding has stopped being an object), so a store lowering that looks up the field slot and finds none does not stop -- it falls through to the class-field / Ptr<Shape> lanes, which load that dummy as an `ObjectHeader*`. The read side has had the matching guard since the synthetic-shape work (`expr/property_get.rs`, whose comment names this exact hazard: "the generic runtime helper that crashes on the dummy slot"). The write side never got it, and needed it on THREE lanes: `Expr::PropertySet` (`o.x += 1`, `for (o.x of ...)`), `Expr::PutValueSet` (`o.x = v`, via `try_lower_sloppy_class_field_store` and the write IC), and `Expr::PropertyUpdate` (`o.y++`). So the fix is at the source, in the two collectors that decide which fields get slots, rather than in each lane: - collectors/escape_news.rs: `non_escaping_new_used_fields` counts a WRITE as a use, so a written field always has a slot. PerryTS#9024's rule one step further -- PerryTS#9024 escapes a write to an UNDECLARED property because it would have no slot; this gives a slot to a DECLARED property that would otherwise have none. It costs nothing at runtime (a store into an alloca nothing loads is removed by LLVM). The walker also had NO arm at all for `Expr::PutValueSet`, which is what `o.x = v` lowers to, so neither the written field nor the value's own nested uses were being recorded. - collectors/escape_check.rs: the `Expr::PropertyUpdate` arm gains PerryTS#9024's `class_chain_has_field` check that the `PropertySet` and `PutValueSet` arms already had. - expr/property_set.rs: a backstop mirroring `property_get.rs` -- a store to a scalar-replaced local with no field slot lowers the value for its side effects and discards the store, the same shape the `this` arm below it has always had. With the collector fixes this should no longer be reachable; kept because the failure it prevents is a null-pointer store and the read side carries the identical guard. Two corrections to the report, which said the crash "does not reproduce in isolation -- the preceding throws are required": - It reproduces in THREE LINES with no exception at all. The original isolated attempt printed `o.x` afterwards, and that read is what creates the slot and hides the crash. "Several rejections first" was the shape it was found in, not the condition. - It is NOT specific to sloppy mode, so it survives the PerryTS#9459 fix rather than being masked by it -- confirmed by running the fixture against a build with PerryTS#9459 applied and PerryTS#9460 not: still SIGSEGV, at the strict case. Neither the `perry_sjlj_try` transport (PerryTS#9323) nor a rooting hole (PerryTS#9417/PerryTS#9444/PerryTS#9445) is involved: PERRY_GC_PROTECT_FROMSPACE changes nothing, because the address was never a heap object. Verified byte-identical to `node --experimental-strip-types` on test-files/test_gap_9460_unread_scalar_field_store.cts (SIGSEGV before, clean after), and the PerryTS#9422/PerryTS#9423 investigation's original `r_lanes.cts` repro now matches node exactly.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The compiler now propagates assignment strictness through property and index stores. Sloppy writes use non-throwing receiver-aware runtime calls. Escape analysis tracks written fields and safely elides slotless scalar-replaced stores. Regression tests cover both fixes.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 28bf6

The PR corrects strict/sloppy property-write behavior and prevents invalid stores through scalar-replaced fields, but sloppy globalThis[string] writes can still throw when they should be ignored, and some optimized class-field assignments may retain stale receivers across garbage collection. These current-head correctness and runtime-safety risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Route sloppy globalThis[string] writes through js_put_value_set.

Line 481 always calls js_typed_feedback_object_set_field_by_name, which has no Throw argument. This branch runs before the new sloppy object-index routes. Therefore, a sloppy script can still throw for globalThis["x"] += 1 after x becomes non-writable.

When assignment_strict is false, call js_put_value_set with global_box as both target and receiver and Throw = 0. Keep the typed-feedback setter for strict assignments. Add a globalThis["x"] regression case.

…erryTS#9459 review) CodeRabbit on PR PerryTS#9519 flagged that the three sloppy `Expr::PropertySet` branches disagreed: the generic tail excluded `caller`/`arguments` by NAME while the class-block branch and `lower_runtime_property_set_by_name` did not. The inconsistency is real. The suggested resolution -- spread the exclusion to the other two -- is backwards, because the exclusion is not what it was believed to be protecting. The ECMAScript poison pill is keyed on the RECEIVER inside the runtime, not on the property name: - `field_set_by_name/write_helpers.rs` throws for a CLOSURE receiver; - `field_set_by_name.rs` throws for a CLASS-CONSTRUCTOR receiver. `js_put_value_set` reaches both. Verified directly rather than assumed, with a computed-key write (`f[k] = v`, `k = "caller"`) that never takes the name-keyed route: it still throws on a function and on a class constructor, and is silent on an ordinary object -- exactly node, except for the plain-function sloppy case noted below. So the name check bought nothing and cost parity. It kept an ORDINARY object whose property happens to be called `caller` on the throwing path: // sloppy .cts const o = { caller: 1 }; Object.freeze(o); o.caller += 1; // node: silent Perry (pre-fix): TypeError which is the very defect PerryTS#9459 is about, preserved by a name check on a receiver-keyed rule. Removing it makes all three sloppy branches agree and fixes that case. Strict lowering is unchanged (the branch is `if !assignment_strict`). The fixture now asserts both receiver paths in both arms: an ordinary object (frozen `.caller +=`, frozen `.arguments +=`, and a live one that must still STORE) where the poison pill must NOT apply, and a class constructor where it must -- so a future change to the sloppy tail cannot silently lose it. Also from the review, prose-only corrections to PerryTS#9460: - the escaping-receiver control escapes via `seen.push(o)` (a non-property read of the local, which `escape_check.rs` treats as an escape), not via `Object.freeze`, which the file does not call; - "every write spelling" narrowed to the representative per-lane set actually present; - `q.y++` on an extensible object is silent in node and leaves `NaN` -- the `TypeError` quoted there was PERRY's pre-fix output, mislabelled as node's. Two residuals found while doing this, both pre-existing on `main`, both filed with repros, both named in the fixture where their cases belong: - PerryTS#9525: sloppy `f.caller = v` on a plain FUNCTION throws; node is silent (`OrdinarySet` returns false on the inherited getter-only accessor) and throws only in strict. The runtime's closure poison pill is unconditional -- its comment's premise, "Perry compiles everything strict", is what PerryTS#9423/PerryTS#9458 established is untrue of a `.cts` script. It reproduces identically through the computed-key route that never touches this lowering, so it is a runtime store path, not codegen routing. - PerryTS#9542: a frozen class instance with a field named `caller`, written with `+=` in a strict arm, segfaults this module on an UNRELATED earlier statement (garbage key inside `set_field_by_name_object_tail`). Bisected with an A/B build: it reproduces at this branch's parent with the exclusion still in place, so it predates both PerryTS#9459 and this commit, and it is module-shape dependent (a reduced file with the same three statements does not crash). That one case is omitted from the fixture with a comment pointing at PerryTS#9542. Verified: both fixtures byte-identical to `node --experimental-strip-types`; perry-codegen --lib 1383 passed / 0 failed; typed_feedback 19, native_proof_regressions 287, scalar_replaced_slot_roots 11, class_field_store_pointer_test 13, shadow_slot_hygiene 4 -- 334 passed / 0 failed; parity `--filter test_gap_9` 46/46, 100%. perry-runtime is untouched by this commit, so its 2974-test lib run from the parent commit still holds.
