…e iterator (PerryTS#10362) Base: 33690c5 (main, includes the PerryTS#10348 fix from PerryTS#10352). gc_child_slots built a 152-byte HeapChildSlotIterator for every traced object, 40 bytes of it a lifted ShapeDescriptor (PerryTS#8122). Two by-value moves of that iterator compiled to out-of-line 152-byte memcpy calls inside visit_gc_layout_slot_descriptors: * the Array and Closure arms' `Option::map(..).unwrap_or_else(..)` temporary, copied into the caller's slot (62% of the calls); * `for .. in child_slots` in the Masked arm, which moved the iterator into the loop (35%). On the PerryTS#10362 retained-graph fixture that was 6,181,945 memcpy calls of exactly 152 bytes (counted with an LD_PRELOAD shim). After this change: 6. * object/shapes.rs: ShapeRecordRef, a Copy handle to one live slab record (live bound, keys word, keys slot). shape_record_by_id and object_shape_record make the same slab probe as the descriptor lookups, without lifting a copy. note_old_generation_carrier and note_full_trace_carrier take the handle. ShapeDescriptor::record_ref() adapts the one caller that holds a descriptor. keys_slot() is now used only by tests, so it is cfg(test). * object/gc_slots.rs: gc_shape_keys_edge_slot and gc_field_slot_range take the handle. * gc/layout.rs: the iterator carries Option<ShapeRecordRef> (8 bytes; the iterator is now 120). The `_from` mask helpers take the handle. gc_child_slots' Array and Closure arms build the iterator directly in the return slot with let-else, as the ObjectFields arm already did. * gc/layout_slot_visit.rs: the Masked arm iterates `&mut child_slots`. Still one shape-table probe per receiver (PerryTS#8122). The handle is read at the same points the lifted copy was: the carrier notes and the keys edge, before any visit. It relies on the same record-address validity the carrier notes already write through (PerryTS#9706). The PerryTS#8112 old_carrier/ephemeron gate and the PerryTS#9726 full-trace note are unchanged. instructions:u, min of 5, same host, base (main 33690c5) vs this: gc3 12,572,092,967 -> 12,275,653,370 -2.36% w1000 1,090,107,336 -> 1,081,645,123 -0.78% w5000 2,049,860,743 -> 2,018,013,960 -1.55% w20000 5,094,775,666 -> 4,994,573,033 -1.97% oldyoung 1,525,484,973 -> 1,503,383,712 -1.45% alloc-only 320,266,130 -> 320,266,017 0.00% All outputs match node byte for byte.

…#10362) Base: 6c9e2a6 (PR PerryTS#10371's head), which this stacks on. `layout_transfer` runs for every evacuated object on every copying minor, both old-generation evacuations and `js_array_grow`. All four callers copy the source header's `_reserved` into the destination first — the minor through `reserved_with_copied_survival_age`, which rewrites only the age bits — so every layout fact a header carries has already arrived: the layout state, `GC_LAYOUT_ALL_POINTERS`, the raw-f64 / holes flags, `GC_ARRAY_ELEMENT_SHAPE` and `GC_OBJ_TYPED_LAYOUT_INTACT`. The funnel re-derived that half anyway, per object: two header classifications, a rewrite of bits that were already equal, an out-of-line call per array and per object, the PerryTS#7510 flag-and-filter gate evaluated twice, and — for every intact object — a ShapeId-keyed `SHAPE_LAYOUTS` probe whose answer a relocation cannot change. Measured with gdb `stepi` on the PerryTS#10362 retained-graph fixture: 160 instructions per moved array, 245 per moved object, 518M in total (4.2% of the run), none of which reached a side-table record. Both per-object maps held one key (`PERRY_LAYOUT_DIAG`). The contract the callers always satisfied is now the funnel's stated contract, asserted in test and debug builds, and the funnel moves only what a header cannot carry: the element-shape record (PerryTS#7480), the residual static-prototype owner registry (PerryTS#9304), and the per-object `TYPED_LAYOUTS` / `LAYOUT_SLOT_MASKS` entries (PerryTS#7510). Each is gated inline by the bit or latch that governs it, and the record moves themselves live in a `#[cold]` slow path. * `gc/layout/transfer.rs` (new): the funnel, its gates and the contract assertion. `gc/layout.rs` drops to 1919 lines, off the 2000-line cap. * `gc/layout_tables.rs`: `per_object_layouts_may_hold_either` answers the PerryTS#7510 gate for both maps and both addresses in one hot-slot resolution. * `object/prototype_chain.rs`: the registry latch is readable without the call. * `array/header.rs`, `array/element_shape.rs`: `transfer_array_numeric_layout` and `clear_element_shape_ptr` were only ever called by the header half of the funnel and are deleted. That also drops a spurious `invalidate_representation_change` a hole-tolerant array took on every move (the transfer cleared the flag it was about to set again); the counter feeds `PERRY_TYPED_FEEDBACK_TRACE` output only. Behaviour: one change, the lazy intact downgrade. The bit is a fact of the object and of two tables a move does not touch, so re-asking at move time could only downgrade objects that happen to move. The state it cleared — intact while no descriptor is reachable — is legal and handled: `shape_install_shared` poisons a shape's shared entry and leaves "any still-INTACT siblings" to fall back, PerryTS#8115 clears the bit at the first contradicting store, the trace falls back to `GC_LAYOUT_UNKNOWN` and scans every slot, and the query helpers answer "no descriptor". An unmoved sibling keeps its bit today, so nothing could have depended on the move clearing it. `test_poisoned_shape_intact_and_per_object_record_survive_a_copying_minor` builds that exact state and drives it through a real copying minor: the moved receiver keeps the bit, answers every query as it did before the move, and its child survives and is rewritten, while the sibling that poisoned the shape keeps its per-object record across the move. It fails on the parent commit (the old funnel clears the bit) and fails again under a sabotaged funnel that does not move the per-object records. `test_layout_transfer_requires_the_relocation_header_copy` pins the contract. instructions:u, min of 5, base 6c9e2a6 vs this: gc3 12,275,577,365 -> 11,880,548,143 -3.22% w1000 1,081,647,372 -> 1,054,559,901 -2.50% w5000 2,018,014,139 -> 1,919,532,121 -4.88% w20000 4,994,632,943 -> 4,797,474,484 -3.95% oldyoung 1,503,368,405 -> 1,471,395,073 -2.13% alloc-only 320,266,214 -> 320,265,756 0.00% That is 154 instructions per relocation on gc3 (2,560,042 relocations on both arms, counted with uprobes), and 71% of the ceiling a full knockout of the funnel measured.

Migrate lazy-array prototype owners during relocation.
GC_TYPE_LAZY_ARRAY is not meta-capable, so object_set_static_prototype_impl stores its explicit prototype in the residual address-keyed registry. Lazy arrays are movable, but layout_header_for_user returns None for their GcLayoutSlotKind::None, so layout_transfer exits before the prototype migration gate. The lazy-array move hook migrates only tape state. A relocated lazy array can therefore lose its explicit prototype.
Move object_static_prototype_owner_moved(old_user, new_user) into a relocation path that also handles GC_TYPE_LAZY_ARRAY, such as its GcMoveHookKind::LazyArrayTape hook. Keep transfer_element_shape restricted to GC_TYPE_ARRAY; widening the current is_array gate alone cannot bypass the early return.

Resolving #10381's conflict with #10387 in `array/mod.rs` dropped `transfer_array_numeric_layout` (deleted by #10381 along with its only caller) and kept `reclassify_array_numeric_layout_from_slots` (added by #10387). One fewer symbol refills the list differently, so rustfmt rewraps it. Whitespace only.

#10362 follow-up) Base: e6dcb62 (main, v0.5.1587). `Object.setPrototypeOf` stores a shaped object's prototype in that object's meta record and everything else — every receiver `meta_capable_object` turns away — in the residual address-keyed registry (`object::prototype_chain`). That entry owes the collector two things: a rekey when the owner's address changes, and its value treated as a child edge so the prototype is retained and rewritten. Both were wired to two kinds by hand: the rekey to ordinary objects (the `ObjectOverflowFields` move hook) and to arrays (below the layout-kind return in the relocation funnel), the value visit to the Array and Object arms of the rewrite descriptor. The registry's population is not those two kinds. A lazy JSON array, Map, Set, Error, Promise, Date, RegExp or Temporal cell reaches the recorder through `Object.setPrototypeOf`, and a closure through `dyn_eval`. Every one of those is movable, none was rekeyed, and none had its prototype value traced. So the entry stayed under the address the owner had just left, the dead-owner prune dropped it on the next collection, and the prototype was gone: var a = JSON.parse(text); // >= 1 KB top-level array: lazy Object.setPrototypeOf(a, proto); Object.getPrototypeOf(a) === proto // true, then false after one minor Reported by CodeRabbit against #10381 for `GC_TYPE_LAZY_ARRAY`. It is older than #10381 — the pre-#10381 funnel returns on the same layout-kind check — and it is not confined to lazy arrays: a runtime survey of every movable kind found Map, Set, Error, Promise, Date and RegExp losing the entry the same way, with arrays and ordinary objects as the controls that kept theirs. Both obligations now follow the registry's population, which `prototype_chain::residual_prototype_owner_type` states once: every kind except the four that can never be a receiver (strings and bigints are primitives, meta records and compiled regex programs are internal). * `gc/layout/transfer.rs` rekeys before the layout-kind return, for every owner kind, behind the registry's own latch. The array-arm and move-hook copies are deleted, so there is one home instead of two partial ones. * `gc/layout_slot_visit.rs` emits the recorded value as a child edge ahead of the kind arms — no arm's early return can skip it — for the same population. * Rekeying alone would have been worse than the bug: the entry would follow the owner while still naming the prototype's pre-collection address. The survey measured exactly that between the two halves. `gc/tests/residual_prototype_relocation.rs` is the witness. One test drives a nursery lazy array through the real `Object.setPrototypeOf` and a real copying minor that provably moves both it and its prototype; the other runs every movable owner kind with the prototype held by nothing but the registry entry, so it also pins retention. Both fail on the parent commit, and each half of the fix has its own sabotage: removing the rekey fails them at "the registry entry did not follow its owner", restricting the value visit to arrays and objects fails them at "the recorded prototype still names its pre-collection address". instructions:u, min of 5, base vs this: gc3 11,755,950,680 -> 11,770,591,001 +0.12% w1000 1,045,688,901 -> 1,046,210,601 +0.05% w5000 1,886,469,457 -> 1,888,582,673 +0.11% w20000 4,727,860,476 -> 4,735,365,693 +0.16% oldyoung 1,454,672,934 -> 1,455,225,497 +0.04% alloc-only 320,198,430 -> 320,203,034 +0.00% protoreloc 1,519,990,848 -> 1,521,552,668 +0.10% (and correct only here) latched 1,913,984,987 -> 1,927,027,915 +0.68% `latched` is the priced case: a program that has re-prototyped a non-object at all, churning Errors, Maps and Dates. Every traced cell of an owner-capable kind then takes the registry's global mutex and a SipHash probe, which is what arrays and ordinary objects have always paid. Removing that price means giving the exotic cells their prototypes back in their own meta records (they all have one since #8891) instead of in an address-keyed table — a storage change worth its own design pass, not this fix.

…#10362) The registry holding an explicit [[Prototype]] for a non-meta-capable owner was gated only by OBJECT_PROTOTYPES_NONEMPTY, a process-global latch. One re-prototyped object anywhere armed it for the rest of the run, after which every traced owner-capable cell paid a lock plus a SipHash probe to ask a question that is false for almost all of them. A latch is a cliff: it turns the fast path off for every cell at once, invisibly to any benchmark that does not contain the trigger. Bit 6 of _reserved is OBJ_FLAG_NULL_PROTO, which has exactly one setter (returning *mut ObjectHeader) and seven readers, every one provably unreachable with a non-GC_TYPE_OBJECT cell: three by an explicit obj_type check, three by a converter that returns None first, one by a preceding conjunct in the same && chain. The registry excludes GC_TYPE_OBJECT by construction, so the bit is free across the registry's whole population, not only for arrays -- which is why both existing witnesses exercise it, one of them a lazy array that an array-scoped bit would have missed. GC_RESIDUAL_PROTO_OWNER is set at the single funnel, under the registry lock and before the insert: the proof is published before the fact it guards. It is never cleared, and that is sound. Entries outlive owners only when the owner is dead; the prune touches only dead owners; both rekey paths keep the entry while _reserved rides the move (#10381's contract, enforced by assert_relocation_copied_the_header). One writer under one lock writes both, so the dangerous direction -- entry present, bit absent -- has no producer. A GC_TYPE_OBJECT owner that reaches the registry anyway keeps the latch-only gate, since bit 6 means something else there. The latch stays as the first test -- one byte load, false for any process that never re-prototyped a non-object -- and the bit is the second, which is what stops an ARMED process paying per traced cell. Sabotage: with the setter made a process-wide no-op, both existing witnesses in gc/tests/residual_prototype_relocation.rs fail at their real verdicts, the registry entry no longer following the lazy header nor the array owner. The bit is load-bearing, not decorative. Measured on main 9df5075, exact instruction counts: the fixture that arms the latch -0.408%, and three that do not are flat (+0.015%, -0.060%, -0.021%). Attributed: -94.3M RandomState::hash_one, -58.2M SipHash write, -36.9M run_copied_minor_attempt, -30.0M transfer_residual_prototype. pointer_slots_read is identical between arms: the collector does bit-identical work.

Stacked on #10371 — until that merges this PR's diff contains its two commits. The commit to review here is the last one,
perf(gc): relocation moves only address-keyed layout records.Part of #10362.
Problem
layout_transferruns once per relocated object (2,560,042 times on #10362's retained-graph fixture) and re-derives header facts the caller has already copied. All four relocation paths — the copying nursery'smove_young, both old-gen evacuations, andjs_array_grow— copy the source header's_reservedinto the destination before calling (the minor throughreserved_with_copied_survival_age, which rewrites only the age bits). So the layout state,GC_LAYOUT_ALL_POINTERS, the raw-f64/holes flags,GC_ARRAY_ELEMENT_SHAPEandGC_OBJ_TYPED_LAYOUT_INTACThave already arrived by construction.It also re-resolved the intact bit through a ShapeId-keyed
SHAPE_LAYOUTSprobe per object. Measured: 160 instructions per moved array, 245 per moved object, 518M total (4.2% of the run) — of which zero reached a side-table record, because both per-object maps held one key.Fix
The funnel now moves only what cannot ride a header: a record keyed by the object's address. Three gates, answered from the header word and one hot thread-local slot, with the record moves behind a
#[cold]path that runs 1,213 times out of 2,560,042 relocations (0.05%):TYPED_LAYOUTS/LAYOUT_SLOT_MASKSentries, gated by perf(gc): layout side tables are 34% of object construction — the construction/death half of #5094 (allocation is 7.7%) #7510's emptiness flag and address filter.transfer_array_numeric_layoutandclear_element_shape_ptrlose their last callers and are deleted. Newgc/layout/transfer.rs(171 lines), which also takesgc/layout.rsoff the 2000-line cap (1919).Why the intact bit is not re-derived
GC_OBJ_TYPED_LAYOUT_INTACTasks whether a canonical typed descriptor is reachable. Its inputs — the stamped ShapeId (copied verbatim with the payload),SHAPE_LAYOUTS, the registered typed-shape registry (#8405) and the per-object map — are all unchanged by a relocation. Re-asking at move time could therefore only apply a lazy downgrade, and only to objects that happen to move.The state that downgrade cleared is legal and already handled:
shape_install_sharedpoisons a shape's shared entry and deliberately leaves still-INTACT siblings to fall back, #8115 clears the bit at the first contradicting store, and the trace path resolves no mask, setsGC_LAYOUT_UNKNOWNand scans every slot. An unmoved sibling in that state keeps its bit today, so an argument needing the move to clear it would already be broken for every object that does not move.Numbers (instructions:u, min of 5; base = #10371 head)
154 instructions per relocation, 71% of the −555.7M ceiling a full knockout of the function measures. Both arms perform 2,560,042 relocations (uprobes). Peak RSS unchanged.
cycles:ppbehaves as predicted:layout_transfer's 12.03% share does not become saved time, it moves tomark_addr(3.72 → 9.28). That share was mostly memory-stall skid after the to-space copy — see the analysis on #10362. The instruction counts are the honest metric here.Soundness
test_poisoned_shape_intact_and_per_object_record_survive_a_copying_minorbuilds an INTACT receiver whose shape's shared descriptor is poisoned, plus the sibling that poisoned it (which falls back to a per-object record), and runs both through a real copying minor.SHAPE_LAYOUTSand clears the bit;test_layout_transfer_requires_the_relocation_header_copypins the contract; the assertion iscfg(any(test, debug_assertions))so it is live in--releasetest runs.Gates

invalidate_representation_changecould not fire under the contract. It did, for hole-tolerant arrays: the numeric transfer cleared theRAW_F64|HOLESpair and setHOLESagain. Deleting that function drops the self-inflicted invalidation; its only consumer is typed-feedback trace output, not a decision.layout_transferis now fully inlined, so no symbol remains for per-call counts via gdb; the per-relocation figure comes from the A/B.Unconditional, no env knob, no off-state.
