Summary

#9020 made ordered Map/Set deletes O(1) by tombstoning entries in place and moved the squeeze into the raw-index readers (js_map_entry_key_at / js_set_value_at) as a "self-heal": the first raw read that observed a hole compacted the whole collection. The for…of fast path reads raw slots on every step, so a loop that deletes while iterating paid one full compaction per delete — 50,000 entries with 12,500 deletes inside the walk took 13–32 s against node's 0.07 s (quadratic in n), while the identical deletes with no iterator open cost 0.5 s.

It was also a correctness bug. Every raw-index cursor (the fast path and the iterator objects) recovered from a squeeze by re-finding the last returned key and, when that key was itself deleted, reading cursor-1 — which assumes exactly ONE hole was squeezed. Deleting several already-visited entries plus the current one in a single body skipped entries, and enough holes ended the loop early:

const m = new Map(); for (let i = 0; i < 40; i++) m.set("k" + i, i);
const seen = [];
for (const [k] of m) { seen.push(k); if (k === "k20") for (let i = 0; i <= 20; i++) m.delete("k" + i); }
// node: 40 entries visited        perry (main): stops at k20 — 19 entries never visited

Map and Set, both walkers.

Fix

The way V8 transitions ordered-hash-table iterators. Every squeeze (compact_*, and clear while a walk may be open) records the raw indices it removed in a per-collection log and bumps a compaction_epoch in the header (offset 36 for MapHeader, 28 for SetHeader — both in existing padding, so no other offset moves and the codegen-pinned used offset test still passes). A cursor carries the epoch it last synchronised with; one call per step (js_map_cursor_next / js_set_cursor_next) rebases it — down by exactly the removed count below it, in order, through every record since — then steps over tombstones and returns the next live raw index.

This is exact by the walk's own invariant (the yielded entries are precisely the live entries below the cursor), needs no key lookup, and no "iteration active" registration that a break, return or abandoned generator could leak. The readers no longer compact at all; the codegen inline entry read is bounded by the raw extent instead of requiring a dense buffer; the iterator objects keep the epoch in their former size-sentinel field 3. clear() inside a walk is recorded as a prefix squeeze, so the cursor restarts at 0 and sees later appends, as the spec's in-place emptying of [[MapData]] requires. Log depth is bounded at 32 records per collection (a cursor that old is stepped over holes without rebase; reaching it needs one loop body to force 32 squeezes of the same collection).

Numbers

Quiet host (Node 26.5.1), warm, 50,000 entries / 12,500 mutations inside the walk:

variant node before after
delete+re-add during for…of, mixed keys 0.07 s 13.38 s 0.02 s
same, string keys 0.07 s 32.36 s 0.02 s
Set, delete+re-add during for…of 0.08 s 8.14 s 0.02 s
bench_map_set_tombstone_churn row 0.07 s 14.5 s (152×) 0.01–0.02 s

Every during-iteration variant now costs the same as its no-iterator control.

Tests / validation

  • Runtime unit tests: the no-compaction read contract, the exact multi-hole rebase, successive squeezes + clear, address reuse — Map and Set. The one test that pinned the old self-heal (raw_indexed_access_self_heals_by_compacting) is rewritten to pin the new contract; map::tests::ordered_delete_repairs_mixed_side_indexes_and_preserves_order walks live entries through the cursor instead of assuming raw == live.
  • test-files/test_gap_map_set_multi_delete_during_iteration.ts: fast path, iterator objects, re-add, clear, 1/3/21-hole Map+Set, and a 50k churn — node-differential.
  • RUST_TEST_THREADS=1 cargo test --release -p perry-runtime: 2979 passed, 0 failed. perry-hir / perry-codegen suites green. cargo clippy --workspace: 0 warnings. scripts/run_lint_gates.sh: 60/60 (the two new perry_thread_local! holders are classified in gc_runtime_root_holders.json).
  • GC arms over the new fixture — PERRY_GC_FORCE_EVACUATE=1 PERRY_GC_VERIFY_EVACUATION=1, PERRY_GC_SCHEDULE_SEED=1, from-space protect (depth 800), PERRY_GC_VERIFY_MARK=1 — all match node (the log side table is re-keyed by map_header_moved_for_gc / set_header_moved_for_gc and pruned by the dead-owner sweep).
  • Every Map/Set/for-of/iterator fixture under test-files/ re-run against node: 87/87 relevant match.

Not changed: forEach's "suppress compaction while active" registration (correct, unwinding already wired through the exception savepoints; could adopt the same rebase later), and the js_map_entries/keys/values materialisers, which still compact first and are O(n) by nature.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fixed Map and Set iteration when entries are deleted, re-added, or cleared during traversal.
    • Iteration now preserves insertion order, visits each eligible entry once, and avoids prematurely ending or skipping loops.
    • Improved performance for large mutation-heavy iterations by preventing repeated compaction.
    • Added support for reliable iteration across internal collection changes and garbage collection.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Map and Set iteration now uses bounded compaction logs and epoch-based cursor rebasing. Raw readers no longer compact collections. Compiler fast paths and iterator objects use cursor helpers. Tests cover mutation, clearing, re-addition, address reuse, and repeated compactions.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9b399

This PR substantially improves Map/Set mutation-during-iteration performance, but merge readiness remains moderate because callback-driven forEach mutation may still skip entries and long-lived iterators may become inaccurate after the bounded mutation history is exceeded; a conflicting runtime assertion and maintainer-owned release metadata also need resolution.

Held back from today's merge train — this regresses an invariant #9504 landed a few hours ago, and the attribution is clean:

build array::collection_tag_tests::a_tombstoned_collection_never_hands_a_hole_to_an_indexed_read
origin/main passes
origin/main + this PR alone FAILS
assertion `left != right` failed: set[0] must never be the raw hole sentinel
  left: 9222246136947933200

That value is TAG_HOLE — an indexed read on a tombstoned Set hands the raw hole sentinel back out, which is exactly the leak class #9504 ("the hole-leak family — Set/Map raw reads, pop, typeof/String…") closed. Your branch predates that merge, so this is almost certainly a rebase interaction rather than a flaw in the O(1)-iteration design itself: the new mutation-during-for…of storage needs to preserve the hole-normalisation #9504 added on the raw-read paths.

Everything else from today's queue is merged; this is the only hold. The failing test is seconds to run:

Happy to re-validate as soon as a rebased revision passes it.

…step and never skips an entry

PerryTS#9020 made ordered Map/Set deletes O(1) by tombstoning entries in place and
moved the squeeze that used to run per delete into the raw-index readers
(`js_map_entry_key_at` / `js_set_value_at`) as a "self-heal": the first raw
read that observed a hole compacted the whole collection. The for…of fast
path reads raw slots on every step, so a loop that deletes while iterating
paid one full compaction per delete — 50,000 entries with 12,500 deletes
inside the walk took 13–32 s against node's 0.07 s (quadratic in n), while
the identical deletes with no iterator open cost 0.5 s.

It was also a correctness bug. Every raw-index cursor (the fast path and
the iterator objects) recovered from a squeeze by re-finding the last
returned key and, when that key was itself deleted, reading `cursor-1` —
which assumes exactly ONE hole was squeezed. Deleting several already
visited entries plus the current one in a single body skipped entries, and
enough holes ended the loop early: 40 entries, k0..k20 deleted at k20,
perry visited 21, node 40. Map and Set, both walkers.

Fixed the way V8 transitions ordered-hash-table iterators. Every squeeze
(`compact_*`, and `clear` while a walk may be open) records the raw indices
it removed in a per-collection log and bumps a `compaction_epoch` in the
header (offset 36 for MapHeader, 28 for SetHeader — both in existing
padding, so no other offset or the codegen-pinned `used` moves). A cursor
carries the epoch it last synchronised with; one call per step
(`js_map_cursor_next` / `js_set_cursor_next`) rebases it — down by exactly
the removed count below it, in order, through every record since — then
steps over tombstones and returns the next live raw index. This is exact by
the walk's own invariant (the yielded entries are precisely the live entries
below the cursor), needs no key lookup and no "iteration active"
registration that a break, return or abandoned generator could leak, and
the readers no longer compact at all. The codegen inline entry read is
bounded by the raw extent instead of requiring a dense buffer; the iterator
objects keep the epoch in their former size-sentinel field 3. `clear()`
inside a walk is recorded as a prefix squeeze, so the cursor restarts at 0
and sees later appends, as the spec's in-place emptying requires. Log depth
is bounded at 32 records per collection.

Quiet-host numbers (node 26.5.1), warm: delete+re-add during for…of over
50k entries 13.38 s -> 0.02 s (mixed keys), 32.36 s -> 0.02 s (string
keys); Set 8.14 s -> 0.02 s; the bench_map_set_tombstone_churn row from
152x node to ~5x faster than node. Every during-iteration variant now costs
the same as its no-iterator control.

Tests: runtime unit tests for the no-compaction read contract, the exact
multi-hole rebase, successive squeezes + clear, and address reuse (Map and
Set); the one test that pinned the old self-heal is rewritten to pin the
new contract; `test_gap_map_set_multi_delete_during_iteration.ts` covers
the fast path, the iterator objects, re-add, clear and a 50k churn,
node-differential. Validation: perry-runtime 2979 passed / 0 failed

schedule / from-space protect / VERIFY_MARK arms over the new fixture all
match node.
…twins, budget the squeeze history

Rebased onto main. PerryTS#9504 (merged after this branch's base) made the array-like
`set[i]` / `map[i]` read go through `js_set_value_at` / `js_map_entry_key_at`
and rely on their compaction to make raw index == live index — the exact
compaction the first revision removed for the walkers, so
`a_tombstoned_collection_never_hands_a_hole_to_an_indexed_read` failed on the
merge. Two contracts wanted one function; they are now two:

* `js_map_entry_key_at` / `js_map_entry_value_at` / `js_set_value_at` stay the
  LIVE-index accessors PerryTS#9504 named them: squeeze first, never hand out a hole,
  and the squeeze is now recorded in the compaction log, so a for…of cursor
  open on the same collection rebases exactly instead of skipping.
* the walkers read through new RAW twins (`js_map_entry_key_raw_at`,
  `js_map_entry_value_raw_at`, `js_set_value_raw_at`): bounded by the raw
  extent, never compacting; the codegen MapEntryKeyAt / MapEntryValueAt /
  SetValueAt fallbacks name them.

Review also caught that the 32-record history cap was the wrong shape: the
grow-path squeeze (`ensure_capacity` at used == capacity with a hole) fires
once per delete+re-add pair on a full collection, so one loop body reaches 33
records trivially. History is now budgeted by retained removed-index count,
`max(4096, capacity)` per collection, a `clear()` record truncates everything
before it, and a forty-squeezes-in-one-body test (Map and Set, at full
capacity) pins exactness across the window. The version bump is dropped per
the contributor rule.

Validation on the rebased tree: perry-runtime 3012 passed / 0 failed
(release, single-threaded) including PerryTS#9504's test; Node-differential match on
the new fixture, the existing Map/Set iteration fixture, and PerryTS#9504's
hole-leak-family fixtures; cargo clippy --workspace 0 warnings; cargo fmt
--all --check clean.

140-144: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Trimming the oldest record makes a rebase silently inexact instead of detectably stale.

The loop drops the oldest record and its removal count. A cursor that last synchronized before the dropped record then moves down by too few slots. rebase_map_cursor cannot tell that case from an exact one, so the walk re-visits already-yielded entries.

The doc comment at Lines 79-91 describes the budget as the exactness window. That is accurate, but the failure mode is silent duplication rather than an error. Consider recording the epoch of the oldest retained record, and treating a loop_epoch older than it as "restart at 0" instead of a partial rebase. Restarting yields a bounded, spec-shaped result for an already out-of-budget mutation burst.

895-912: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy lift

The Set compaction log duplicates the Map one line for line.

SetRemovedSlots, SetCompactionRecord, SET_COMPACTION_LOG_MIN_BUDGET, SetCompactionLog, note_set_compaction, rebase_set_cursor and set_cursor_next_raw differ from their crate::map twins only in the header type, the hole constant, and the element stride. That is roughly 150 duplicated lines carrying identical arithmetic. Two copies means every future fix to the rebase rule must land twice.

Consider hoisting the log into one module that is generic over a small trait supplying the epoch field accessor, the hole bits, and the extent. Both collections would then share count_below, the budget trimming, and the rebase loop.

Also note that this file declares two separate impl SetRemovedSlots blocks, at Lines 905-912 and Lines 941-949, for one type. Merge them.

This assertion pins the hole-leaking contract that the #9504 invariant test forbids.

The test asserts that js_map_entry_key_raw_at returns MAP_HOLE_KEY_BITS for a tombstoned raw index, and the message states that only the cursor ever reads it. The reported failure of array::collection_tag_tests::a_tombstoned_collection_never_hands_a_hole_to_an_indexed_read shows that another reader also reaches the raw accessor. The two tests assert opposite contracts, so one of them must change.

If you normalize the hole in the raw accessors, as suggested on crates/perry-runtime/src/map.rs Line 2916, update this assertion to expect crate::value::TAG_UNDEFINED. The surrounding claim the test really needs — that the raw read leaves used, size and the epoch untouched — is asserted separately at Lines 195-205 and stays valid either way.

Update the assertion for js_map_entry_key_raw_at in the tombstone test to expect
crate::value::TAG_UNDEFINED rather than MAP_HOLE_KEY_BITS, while leaving the
separate used, size, and epoch invariants unchanged.

Defer compaction during active forEach walks

If a callback deletes an earlier entry and then reads map[j] or set[j], the live-index accessor compacts the collection while js_map_foreach_impl or js_set_foreach_impl still uses the old raw counter. The walk can then skip live entries. Guard the map accessors at crates/perry-runtime/src/map.rs:2902 and :2943 with !map_foreach_is_active(map), and guard the Set accessor at crates/perry-runtime/src/set.rs:1882 with !set_foreach_is_active(set). The existing outermost-walk cleanup can perform the deferred compaction.

Landed via #9547 (rebase-merge, your authorship preserved). The updated head's live-index-reader design passes the #9504 hole-leak invariant explicitly; the walker IR proof was updated to the raw twins as a train fix.

Rebased onto main and re-validated — the attribution was right, and it was a contract collision with #9504 rather than the design: #9504 made the set[i] / map[i] arm read through js_set_value_at / js_map_entry_key_at and rely on their compaction, which this branch had removed for the walkers. Those accessors are now the live-index readers again (they compact, and the squeeze is recorded in the compaction log so an open for…of cursor rebases exactly); the walkers read through new *_raw_at twins that never compact. a_tombstoned_collection_never_hands_a_hole_to_an_indexed_read passes, along with the rest of the runtime suite (3012 / 0, single-threaded release) and #9504's fixtures (test_gap_9462_hole_leak_family, 9463, 9398) node-differentially.

Also took CodeRabbit's point on the 32-record history cap — the grow-path squeeze (ensure_capacity at used == capacity with a hole) makes 33 squeezes in one body trivially reachable on a full collection — so history is now budgeted by retained removed-index count (max(4096, capacity)), clear() truncates it, and a forty-squeezes-in-one-body regression (Map and Set) pins the window. Version bump dropped per the contributor rule.

The three red lint gates (local_binding_type_audit, shape_descriptor_census, gc_root_dominance_check --audit-poll-reach) and the earlier Check formatting failure reproduce identically on pristine main@959bbab08a — stale allowlist/census after the #9515 splits, the new concat_site.rs poll-reach edge, and a since-formatted line in native_module_dispatch.rs this branch never touches. Details in 9b39982914's message.

…tead of shifting the walk

#9504 made the array-like `map[i]` / `set[i]` read a live-index accessor: it
squeezes tombstones so raw index == live index and never hands out a hole.
`forEach` walks the raw entries with a counter that the delete-path squeeze
defers around (the walk registers itself) — but the accessor's squeeze had no
such guard. A callback that deleted already-visited entries and then read
`map[j]` compacted the buffer under the walk's counter, shifting the survivors
below it: with two earlier entries deleted, two later ones were never visited
(18 of 20, Map and Set).

While a walk is active the accessor now defers the squeeze exactly as the
delete path does and resolves the live index by stepping over the tombstones
(O(idx), on a path that is rare by construction); the outermost walk's
completion performs the deferred squeeze as before. Outside a walk the
accessor squeezes as #9504 specified, and #9504's
`a_tombstoned_collection_never_hands_a_hole_to_an_indexed_read` stays green.
The for…of fast path is unaffected: its cursor rebases through the compaction
log (#9513), so a squeeze under it was already exact.

Found by the automated review on #9513, reproduced on merged main.

Tests: `a_live_index_read_inside_foreach_defers_the_squeeze_and_skips_nothing`
for Map and Set (every entry visited once; live values read mid-walk; layout
left alone during the walk, squeezed on completion; the accessor still
squeezes outside a walk) and `test_gap_foreach_live_index_read_no_skip.ts`
(single and nested walks), node-differential. perry-runtime 3018 passed /
0 failed (release, single-threaded); #9504's and #9513's fixtures still match
node; cargo fmt --all --check clean; no clippy warning in the touched files.
