55 * Given P independent, non-unique properties each of size S words mapped by
56 * all scopes in a runtime, construct a property tree of N nodes each of size
57 * S+L words (L for tree linkage). A nominal L value is 2 for leftmost-child
58 * and right-sibling links. We hope that the N < P by enough that the space
59 * overhead of L, and the overhead of scope entries pointing at property tree
62 * The tree construction goes as follows. If any empty scope in the runtime
63 * has a property X added to it, find or create a node under the tree root
64 * labeled X, and set scope->lastProp to point at that node. If any non-empty
65 * scope whose most recently added property is labeled Y has another property
66 * labeled Z added, find or create a node for Z under the node that was added
67 * for Y, and set scope->lastProp to point at that node.
69 * A property is labeled by its members' values: id, getter, setter, slot,
70 * attributes, tiny or short id, and a field telling for..in order. Note that
71 * labels are not unique in the tree, but they are unique among a node's kids
72 * (barring rare and benign multi-threaded race condition outcomes, see below)
73 * and along any ancestor line from the tree root to a given leaf node (except
74 * for the hard case of duplicate formal parameters to a function).
76 * Thus the root of the tree represents all empty scopes, and the first ply
77 * of the tree represents all scopes containing one property, etc. Each node
78 * in the tree can stand for any number of scopes having the same ordered set
79 * of properties, where that node was the last added to the scope. (We need
80 * not store the root of the tree as a node, and do not -- all we need are
83 * Sidebar on for..in loop order: ECMA requires no particular order, but this
84 * implementation has promised and delivered property definition order, and
85 * compatibility is king. We could use an order number per property, which
86 * would require a sort in js_Enumerate, and an entry order generation number
87 * per scope. An order number beats a list, which should be doubly-linked for
88 * O(1) delete. An even better scheme is to use a parent link in the property
89 * tree, so that the ancestor line can be iterated from scope->lastProp when
90 * filling in a JSIdArray from back to front. This parent link also helps the
91 * GC to sweep properties iteratively.
93 * What if a property Y is deleted from a scope? If Y is the last property in
94 * the scope, we simply adjust the scope's lastProp member after we remove the
95 * scope's hash-table entry pointing at that property node. The parent link
96 * mentioned in the for..in sidebar above makes this adjustment O(1). But if
97 * Y comes between X and Z in the scope, then we might have to "fork" the tree
98 * at X, leaving X->Y->Z in case other scopes have those properties added in
99 * that order; and to finish the fork, we'd add a node labeled Z with the path
100 * X->Z, if it doesn't exist. This could lead to lots of extra nodes, and to
101 * O(n^2) growth when deleting lots of properties.
103 * Rather, for O(1) growth all around, we should share the path X->Y->Z among
104 * scopes having those three properties added in that order, and among scopes
105 * having only X->Z where Y was deleted. All such scopes have a lastProp that
106 * points to the Z child of Y. But a scope in which Y was deleted does not
107 * have a table entry for Y, and when iterating that scope by traversing the
108 * ancestor line from Z, we will have to test for a table entry for each node,
109 * skipping nodes that lack entries.
111 * What if we add Y again? X->Y->Z->Y is wrong and we'll enumerate Y twice.
112 * Therefore we must fork in such a case, if not earlier. Because delete is
113 * "bursty", we should not fork eagerly. Delaying a fork till we are at risk
114 * of adding Y after it was deleted already requires a flag in the JSScope, to
115 * wit, SCOPE_MIDDLE_DELETE.
117 * What about thread safety? If the property tree operations done by requests
118 * are find-node and insert-node, then the only hazard is duplicate insertion.
119 * This is harmless except for minor bloat. When all requests have ended or
120 * been suspended, the GC is free to sweep the tree after marking all nodes
121 * reachable from scopes, performing remove-node operations as needed.
123 * Is the property tree worth it compared to property storage in each table's
124 * entries? To decide, we must find the relation <> between the words used
125 * with a property tree and the words required without a tree.
127 * Model all scopes as one super-scope of capacity T entries (T a power of 2).
128 * Let alpha be the load factor of this double hash-table. With the property
129 * tree, each entry in the table is a word-sized pointer to a node that can be
130 * shared by many scopes. But all such pointers are overhead compared to the
131 * situation without the property tree, where the table stores property nodes
132 * directly, as entries each of size S words. With the property tree, we need
133 * L=2 extra words per node for siblings and kids pointers. Without the tree,
134 * (1-alpha)*S*T words are wasted on free or removed sentinel-entries required
139 * (property tree) <> (no property tree)
141 * N*(S+L) + T <> P*S + (1-alpha)*S*T
142 * N*(S+L) + alpha*T + (1-alpha)*T <> P*S + (1-alpha)*S*T
144 * Note that P is alpha*T by definition, so
146 * N*(S+L) + P + (1-alpha)*T <> P*S + (1-alpha)*S*T
147 * N*(S+L) <> P*S - P + (1-alpha)*S*T - (1-alpha)*T
148 * N*(S+L) <> (P + (1-alpha)*T) * (S-1)
149 * N*(S+L) <> (P + (1-alpha)*P/alpha) * (S-1)
150 * N*(S+L) <> P * (1/alpha) * (S-1)
152 * Let N = P*beta for a compression ratio beta, beta <= 1:
154 * P*beta*(S+L) <> P * (1/alpha) * (S-1)
155 * beta*(S+L) <> (S-1)/alpha
156 * beta <> (S-1)/((S+L)*alpha)
158 * For S = 6 (32-bit architectures) and L = 2, the property tree wins iff
162 * We ensure that alpha <= .75, so the property tree wins if beta < .83_. An
163 * average beta from recent Mozilla browser startups was around .6.
165 * Can we reduce L? Observe that the property tree degenerates into a list of
166 * lists if at most one property Y follows X in all scopes. In or near such a
167 * case, we waste a word on the right-sibling link outside of the root ply of
168 * the tree. Note also that the root ply tends to be large, so O(n^2) growth
169 * searching it is likely, indicating the need for hashing (but with increased
170 * thread safety costs).
172 * If only K out of N nodes in the property tree have more than one child, we
173 * could eliminate the sibling link and overlay a children list or hash-table
174 * pointer on the leftmost-child link (which would then be either null or an
175 * only-child link; the overlay could be tagged in the low bit of the pointer,
176 * or flagged elsewhere in the property tree node, although such a flag must
177 * not be considered when comparing node labels during tree search).
179 * For such a system, L = 1 + (K * averageChildrenTableSize) / N instead of 2.
180 * If K << N, L approaches 1 and the property tree wins if beta < .95.
182 * We observe that fan-out below the root ply of the property tree appears to
183 * have extremely low degree (see the MeterPropertyTree code that histograms
184 * child-counts in jsscope.c), so instead of a hash-table we use a linked list
185 * of child node pointer arrays ("kid chunks"). The details are isolated in
186 * jsscope.c; others must treat JSScopeProperty.kids as opaque. We leave it
187 * strongly typed for debug-ability of the common (null or one-kid) cases.
189 * One final twist (can you stand it?): the mean number of entries per scope
190 * in Mozilla is < 5, with a large standard deviation (~8). Instead of always
191 * allocating scope->table, we leave it null while initializing all the other
192 * scope members as if it were non-null and minimal-length. Until a property
193 * is added that crosses the threshold of 6 or more entries for hashing, or
194 * until a "middle delete" occurs, we use linear search from scope->lastProp
195 * to find a given id, and save on the space overhead of a hash table.
