fix(codegen): fill a class method's `arguments` from every passed argument by proggeramlug · Pull Request #8162 · PerryTS/perry

proggeramlug · 2026-08-15T16:40:37Z

What

A class method whose body reads arguments received an array holding
max(0, argc - declaredParams) entries instead of all of them.

class C { m(a, b) { return arguments.length } }
new C().m(1, 2, 3)   // Perry: 1     Node: 3
                     // and arguments[0] was the THIRD argument

Only a method declaring zero parameters was accidentally correct — which is
the shape every existing arguments test in the tree happens to use, including
test_gap_arguments_object_3553plus.ts and test_issue_1069_arguments_coverage.ts.
That is why this survived.

Root cause

arguments-synthesis (#677) appends a hidden trailing parameter to such a method
and marks it is_rest — which is exactly how a user ...rest is spelled. The
class-method call sites keyed off that single bit, so they bundled the synthesized
slot from declared - 1, the offset a user rest wants. The synthesized slot has
to be filled from argument 0 instead, and marked with js_array_mark_arguments_object.

The freestanding-function path (lower_call/func_ref.rs) has always emitted the
correct shape, and lower_call/property_get/static_dispatch.rs was fixed for its
own slice in #5703. Four call sites had not been:

site	reached by
`dynamic_dispatch.rs` — guarded direct call	`obj.m(…)` on a statically-known receiver
`dynamic_dispatch.rs` — per-implementor subclass arm (#5437)	a call made from inside another class method
`expr/static_method.rs` — `StaticMethodCall`	`C.m(…)`
`expr/super_method.rs` — `SuperMethodCall`	`super.m(…)`

The super.m(…) arm did no bundling at all — it passed every argument
positionally, so the callee's trailing array slot received a raw scalar. That
also mis-served a plain super.m(1, 2, 3) into m(a, ...rest).

All four now read the trailing-parameter shape off the callee's own HIR
(arguments_object is set on the synthesized parameter and on nothing else),
including the case where a method has both a real ...rest and an
arguments read — two bundles over the same argument list at different offsets,
which previously left the user rest bound to a scalar rather than an array.

Runtime dynamic dispatch (o[name](…), .call, .apply) was already correct,
because the runtime method table carries a separate has_synth_args flag. The
defect reproduced only through compile-time-resolved calls.

Why it mattered

Found bringing up a production Next.js App Route (#8040). Next.js bundles
OpenTelemetry's NoopTracer.startActiveSpan:

startActiveSpan(a, b, c, d) {
  if (arguments.length < 2) return;   // <- fired on every well-formed 3-arg call
  …
}

so tracer.trace() returned undefined without ever invoking its callback. The
route's generated handler resolved having never entered routeModule.handle, and
the request was answered with an empty body.

Verified against the app's real .next/server/chunks/2.js, driven through a
webpack-shaped require shim. Before: trace() → ret=undefined calls=0. After:
ret=OK calls=1, matching Node on all 13 probes.

Tests

Full crate suite after the change: cargo test -p perry-codegen --lib →
1016 passed; 0 failed.

crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/class_method_arguments_object_tests.rs — IR
census on the call site, in src/ so per-PR cargo-test runs it.
- positive: the bundle is filled from argument 0 (all three literals pushed for
  a 3-arg call to a 2-param method) and marked;
- negative: a user ...rest with no arguments read still bundles only its
  trailing args and is not marked — so "always bundle from 0" or "always
  mark" fails.
test-files/test_gap_arguments_in_class_method.ts — byte-for-byte against
Node, the class-method twin of the existing
test_gap_arguments_in_object_literal_method.ts (whose case 3 has asserted
this same property for object literals since Tracking: Effect framework end-to-end compat (post-#309 / #310) #321). Covers instance, static,
inherited, async, ...rest + arguments, indexing, the already-correct
dynamic/call/apply control arm, super.m(…), generator methods, and the
startActiveSpan guard shape. Verified byte-for-byte against Node 26.5.1.

Sabotage-verified — with the two source files reverted and the tests kept:

running 2 tests
test …::a_user_rest_parameter_still_bundles_only_its_trailing_arguments ... ok
test …::a_class_method_reading_arguments_is_handed_every_passed_argument ... FAILED

the class-method call site never marked its synthesized `arguments` array —
the callee receives a plain Array, so `arguments` fails every
arguments-object predicate

test result: FAILED. 1 passed; 1 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 1014 filtered out

Known adjacent gap, NOT fixed here

arguments is never synthesized for accessor bodies — set v(x) { arguments.length }
throws ReferenceError: arguments is not defined under Perry (Node: 1). That is a
lowering gap in the getter/setter path, not the call-site conflation this PR fixes,
so it is left alone and called out rather than folded in.

Refs #8040.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Fixed class methods so the arguments object consistently includes all supplied arguments, including in static, inherited, overridden, super, async, generator, and dynamically dispatched calls.
- Preserved correct behavior for missing or extra arguments, indexing, callbacks, proxy forwarding, and direct or indirect method calls.
- Ensured user-defined rest parameters continue to include only trailing arguments when used alongside arguments.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Class-method call lowering now distinguishes synthesized arguments parameters from user rest parameters. Direct, static, super, inherited, and dynamic dispatch paths bundle arguments correctly and mark synthesized arrays. Regression tests cover compiler IR and runtime behavior.

Changes

Class-method arguments handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Trailing-shape resolution and direct calls `crates/perry-codegen/src/codegen/arguments.rs`, `crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/static_method.rs`, `crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/super_method.rs`	Method metadata distinguishes synthesized `arguments` parameters from user rest parameters. Static and super calls preserve fixed arguments, bundle trailing values, and mark synthesized arguments arrays.
Dynamic and virtual dispatch bundling `crates/perry-codegen/src/lower_call/property_get/dynamic_dispatch.rs`	Dispatch metadata tracks both trailing shapes. Dynamic and virtual dispatch construct separate arrays, preserve caller argument counts, and mark synthesized arguments arrays.
Regression coverage and release record `crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/class_method_arguments_object_tests.rs`, `crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/mod.rs`, `test-files/test_gap_arguments_in_class_method.ts`, `changelog.d/8162-class-method-arguments-object.md`	Tests cover synthesized arguments objects, user rest parameters, inheritance, super calls, async and generator methods, dynamic calls, and proxy forwarding. The changelog records the affected paths.

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

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 93066

The change fixes class-method argument handling across direct, static, super, and inherited calls, with broad regression coverage, so it is otherwise mergeable; however, methods without local HIR that combine a user rest parameter with synthesized arguments may still bind arguments incorrectly and require explicit owner follow-up.

…ument `arguments`-synthesis (#677) appends a hidden trailing parameter to a class method whose body reads `arguments`, and marks it `is_rest` — which is exactly how a user `...rest` is spelled. The class-method call sites keyed off that one bit, so they bundled the synthesized slot from `declared - 1`, the offset a *user* rest wants. `m(a, b) { arguments }` called as `m(1, 2, 3)` therefore received `arguments === [3]`: length 1, and `arguments[0]` the third argument. A method declaring zero parameters was accidentally correct, which is the shape every existing `arguments` test used. The synthesized slot must instead be filled from argument 0 and marked with `js_array_mark_arguments_object`. The freestanding-function path (`lower_call/func_ref.rs`) has always done this, and `static_dispatch.rs` was fixed for its own slice in #5703. Three call sites had not been: * `dynamic_dispatch.rs`, the guarded direct call, * `dynamic_dispatch.rs`, the per-implementor subclass arm (#5437), which is the one a call made from inside another class method reaches, and * `expr/static_method.rs`, the `StaticMethodCall` path. All three now resolve the trailing-parameter shape from the callee's own HIR — `arguments_object` is set on the synthesized parameter and on nothing else — and emit accordingly, including the case where a method has both a real `...rest` and an `arguments` read: two bundles over the same argument list at different offsets, which previously left the user rest bound to a scalar. Runtime dynamic dispatch (`o[name](…)`, `.call`, `.apply`) was already correct because the runtime method table carries a separate `has_synth_args` flag, so the defect reproduced only through compile-time-resolved calls. Found bringing up a production Next.js App Route. Next.js bundles OpenTelemetry's `NoopTracer.startActiveSpan`, whose first statement is `if (arguments.length < 2) return;`. Under the conflation that guard fired on every well-formed three-argument call, so `tracer.trace()` returned `undefined` without ever invoking its callback: the route's generated handler resolved having never entered `routeModule.handle`, and the request was answered with an empty body. Refs #8040.

The `super.m(…)` arm passed every argument POSITIONALLY, so whenever the resolved parent method ends in an array-shaped slot the callee received a raw scalar there. A body reading `arguments` gets one such slot synthesized (#677), and a `...rest` declares its own; `super.m(1, 2, 3)` into `m(a, b) { arguments }` therefore bound `arguments` to the number 3 rather than to `[1, 2, 3]`. Same shape as the three sites fixed in the previous commit, so the resolver moves to `codegen/arguments.rs` where all four call sites can reach it. Refs #8040.

Scope the push scan, or correct the doc comment.

The doc comment states the count is taken "in the module-init function where the call site lives". pushes_of scans every line of the whole module IR.

The negative test relies on exact counts (== 1 and == 0). Any unrelated js_array_push_f64 carrying double 1.0 or double 3.0 elsewhere in the emitted module changes those counts. The fixture is minimal today, so the assertions hold, but they are coupled to unrelated codegen.

Either scope the scan to the module-init function body, or update the doc comment to state the scan is module-wide.

Add the two-bundle and static-method cases.

Both tests use a single trailing parameter. Two shapes the PR changes are not covered at the IR level:

synth && user_rest together. super_method.rs Line 135 and dynamic_dispatch.rs Line 589 both add a trailing_slots == 2 branch. No test drives it. module_with_tail takes one Param, so a second fixture that appends both a user rest and a synthesized arguments would cover it.

The StaticMethodCall path in expr/static_method.rs. Case (6) in test-files/test_gap_arguments_in_class_method.ts covers the runtime behavior, but there is no IR census on that call site, and that path does not implement the trailing_slots == 2 branch.

Do you want me to generate both fixtures?

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve the user-rest flag for imported class methods.

These lines return false when the resolved class has no HIR. An imported method that has both ...rest and arguments then lowers as [fixed, arguments] instead of [fixed, rest, arguments]. Preserve this flag in imported method metadata, or retain enough method HIR to resolve it. Add a cross-module regression for this method shape. The PR objective requires methods that combine arguments and ...rest to work.

Rebase moved the base to current main, so both arms were rebuilt there and the whole measurement retaken.

Also records, rather than rounds away, the fixed +80 KB per-process startup cost the change adds: it is page-granular first touch, not code size (binary +80 B, __TEXT unchanged) and not the pool data (144 B of empty Vec headers).

Six sites were NOT among those 94, because `ReleaseBoxes` falls into a pre-existing `_ => {}` catch-all there — so rustc said nothing. Three of them renumber LocalIds, which is exactly the case the variant's own doc comment declares incorrect: an unremapped `PreallocateBoxes` merely allocates a cell nobody reads, but an unremapped `ReleaseBoxes` releases a STILL-LIVE local's cell and hands it to the next allocation. None is reachable today — intra-module inlining runs before the async transform, the cross-module harvest refuses bodies containing a release, and the two max-id scans feed a `next_local_id` computed earlier — but that safety rests entirely on pipeline ordering that nothing enforces. Remapped rather than left latent: - `inline/substitute.rs` `substitute_locals_in_stmts_inner` — the neighbouring prealloc arm already remaps (issue #569); the release now does too. - `perry-hir/src/analysis.rs` `remap_local_ids_in_stmt{,_propagating}` — the canonical HIR remappers, whose own doc says to keep the variant list in sync. - `generator/per_iteration.rs` `rename_in_stmt` — a LocalId renamer inside the generator transform itself; its `each_expr_mut` helper only reaches ids that live inside an Expr, so all three bare-id-list variants were walked past. - `generator/id_scan.rs` and `deforest/walk.rs` max-id scans now include the release ids, matching the deliberate #1029/#5143 defence on the prealloc arm. - `perry-codegen/src/boxed_vars.rs` keeps NOT collecting release ids (a reclamation hint must not decide a local's representation) but says so explicitly instead of falling into the catch-all. The invariant those last two lean on — the transform never releases an id it did not also preallocate, or `emit_release_boxes` skips it and the release goes silently inert with every test still green — is now asserted in both directions (`every_released_id_is_also_preallocated`, with vacuity guards). gc_root_dominance_check.py: - The "box" immovable-source exemption rested on "boxes are never freed", which this PR falsified, while its probe only grepped for `dealloc(`/`arena_alloc(` — all of which a *recycle* path passes. The exemption stayed green on a dead premise, which the script's own docstring calls strictly worse than no exemption. Re-argued on the property #8208 actually preserves (cell memory is never returned to the allocator, so an address never stops naming box-cell memory and can never become another kind of object), and the probe now also requires the reuse path to stay quarantine-gated. Sabotage-tested: bypassing the quarantine and introducing a real `dealloc` each turn it red. - Added the three `js_*box_release` names to NONCOLLECTING. This PR had added them to `gc_call_effects.rs` only, breaking the documented one-way containment — the same one-sided drift that cost #7510 358 spurious violations. `cannot_collect_stays_a_subset_of_the_checker_authority` now machine-checks that relation instead of trusting four comments that assert it. Also refreshes the monotonicity docs the release invalidated, including the load-bearing correctness argument in `expr/literals_vars.rs` that let a `box_ptr` outlive a collecting call on the strength of "never freed". Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01AHvBYz7E6wWKv8kmvLLGpj * fix(hir,transform): scope the new id-remap arms strictly to ReleaseBoxes The previous commit grouped `ReleaseBoxes` with `PreallocateBoxes` / `PreallocateTdzBoxes` in `analysis.rs`'s two canonical remappers and in `per_iteration.rs`'s renamer. In those three places the prealloc variants were previously UNHANDLED, so the grouping quietly started remapping them too — a behaviour change to existing programs riding along inside a PR about a new statement variant. That prealloc gap is real but pre-existing and benign in its failure direction: an unremapped prealloc allocates a cell nobody reads, whereas an unremapped release frees a live local's cell. Closing it can shift codegen and deserves its own evidence, so it is documented at both sites and left alone. With this, the hardening changes alter behaviour only for `ReleaseBoxes`, which no pass in the tree can reach today — so they cannot move codegen output at all. The sites where `ReleaseBoxes` was grouped with an arm that ALREADY handled the prealloc variants (`inline/substitute.rs`, `generator/id_scan.rs`, `deforest/walk.rs`) are unaffected and keep the grouping. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01AHvBYz7E6wWKv8kmvLLGpj * docs: re-measure #8208 on 07c8040 and record the hardening Corrects the residue figure (65,906 -> 65,915 after the rebase onto #8204/#8196, neither of which moved it), and reports instructions and peak RSS together per corpus row against a stated noise floor. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01AHvBYz7E6wWKv8kmvLLGpj * docs: record the flush-boundary limitation and the exit-path coverage Adds the measured degenerate case (an await cascade with no timer or I/O never reaches the flush boundary, so releases are performed but never harvested: +1.32% instructions, +0.3 MB RSS) and the seven-shape exit-path fixture that matches the Node oracle byte-for-byte on both arms. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01AHvBYz7E6wWKv8kmvLLGpj * test(gap): pin every async exit path across the #8208 box release Behavioural half of the #8208 gate. Drives normal return, throw after an await, early return from inside a loop after a suspend, await on a rejected promise, try/finally across a suspend on both terminal arms, loop-created closures capturing a per-iteration binding across a suspend, and async-generator .return() versus a full drain — 400 iterations each — and prints values that only come out right if every cell outlived its last reader. A cell released while still reachable, or reused by a second live activation, is a wrong answer rather than a crash, which is why this asserts printed values against the Node oracle instead of merely running to completion. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01AHvBYz7E6wWKv8kmvLLGpj * docs: re-measure #8208 with both arms rebuilt at b8d32ab Rebase moved the base to current main, so both arms were rebuilt there and the whole measurement retaken. Counters are bit-identical (releases == allocs, residue constant at 65,915) and peak RSS reproduces within 0.3 MB, so none of #8204/#8196/#8211/#8212/#8162 moves this residue. Also records, rather than rounds away, the fixed +80 KB per-process startup cost the change adds: it is page-granular first touch, not code size (binary +80 B, __TEXT unchanged) and not the pool data (144 B of empty Vec headers). Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01AHvBYz7E6wWKv8kmvLLGpj * perf(runtime): thread the box reuse pool through the cells, deleting the side table The free pool was a `Vec<usize>` per kind: one 8-byte slot per pooled cell, on top of the cell. Its high-water mark is ~330 cells per unit of PEAK CONCURRENCY (measured: resident_cells/SIZE is 329-334 across a 16x sweep of the fan-out width), held for the life of the thread, so at SIZE=200 it was ~1 MB of side table and made small async workloads a net RSS REGRESSION. A free cell's own 8 bytes are dead, and every box kind is exactly pointer-sized (now asserted at compile time), so the free list is threaded through the cells themselves and costs zero side-table bytes. Overwriting the cell is why only POST-QUARANTINE cells join the list: a quarantined cell must keep the parked terminal value a stray duplicate resume reads, and `flush_released_boxes` publishing it is exactly the point at which the task queue is empty and no such resume can exist. The checker probe is updated to fail if a release ever publishes directly. The quarantine is deliberately NOT shrunk on flush: it refills to the same size every interval, and handing the buffer back cost +5.3 MB peak RSS at BATCHES=1200 in allocator churn (measured). Measured on asyncpipe, matched arms at b8d32ab (peak RSS, best-of-5): BATCHES 30 60 90 120 300 600 1200 delta MB +0.80 +0.92 -0.19 -0.19 -8.17 -25.06 -69.73 Crossover moves from ~200 batches to between 60 and 90, and the 1200 row improves from -63.8 MB to -69.7 MB. stdout is byte-identical at every size. The residual sub-crossover cost is NOT this pool -- see the changelog.
