feat(gc): generated GC call-effects table + call-graph checker (RFC deferred collection S1) - #11565
Conversation

Navigate logical layers of code changes, visualize relationships, and explore their blast radius. 📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds a tool that classifies runtime helpers from target-specific runtime archives. The compiler uses generated classifications during root handling. The runtime separates non-collecting root-registry guards, and CI regenerates and checks classification tables.

The changelog should also state that safe drift warns rather than fails on pull requests. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The new call-graph parser can omit some direct calls without treating them as unknown. If such a call reaches code that can collect garbage, the generated table could incorrectly permit compiler optimizations that depend on it being non-collecting.

Correct the description of the drift policy.
The changelog says the CI jobs "fail on any difference". In test.yml, GC_EFFECTS_ALLOW_SAFE_DRIFT is set on pull_request. On a PR, only UNSAFE drift fails, and safe drift is only a warning. Main-line tiers fail on any drift. State both rules.
Proposed wording
-regenerate each table from freshly built archives and fail on any difference, with the witness path and the regenerated table as an artifact.
+regenerate each table from freshly built archives. On a PR, only UNSAFE drift fails (a committed class weaker than the archives prove); on main-line tiers any difference fails. The witness path is printed and the regenerated table is uploaded as an artifact.📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Resolve direct branch targets without relocations.
analyze_node adds direct callees only from ins.relocs. A direct call, jmp, bl, or b without a relocation therefore adds no edge and is not treated as a seed. Graph._section_target does not correct this because it runs only for entries already present in node.calls.
If such a branch targets another function in the same object and section, classification can mark the caller as Leaf and codegen can omit its required statepoint.
Resolve the target address against nodes in the same (obj, sec). Add the matching callee when it is outside the current function. Treat unresolved direct branches as seeds.

Update the generated header for #11523.
TABLE_HEADER says the #11523 CannotCollect helpers are "not Leaf". This PR adds NonCollectingRootRegistryGuard, and issue_11523_noncollecting_guard_helpers_are_provably_leaf requires at least 15 of those helpers to be Leaf. All three committed tables carry this header, so each table contradicts its own rows. Change the text to say that the helpers are Leaf again through the non-collecting guard. Then regenerate the tables.

Replace the retiring macos-14 runner.
GitHub schedules macos-14 job failures during brownouts starting October 5, 2026, and will retire the runner on November 2, 2026. This new matrix leg feeds the required gate, so those runner failures will block planned checks before the table comparison runs. Use a supported arm64 runner such as macos-15, then regenerate and check the macOS table on that runner. (github.com)

RFC deferred collection (#11528), step S1. Codegen's GC call effects for runtime helpers now come from a generated, committed table instead of the hand-maintained allowlist in
gc_call_effects.rs. A call-graph checker in CI regenerates the table from freshly built runtime archives for Linux x86-64, macOS aarch64 and Windows x86-64 (cargo xwin).scripts/gc_call_effects/):callgraph.pybuilds a symbol-level graph fromllvm-objdump -d -roverlibperry_runtime/libperry_stdlib(about 58k functions and 330k edges; about 70 s per target) and classifies every exported symbol asLeaf,AllocOnly,ThrowOnlyorReenters. Supporting files:why.pyprints the shortest witness path to the tainting seed.regen.sh <target> [--check]builds the archives and regenerates or checks a table.seeds.txtholds every seed, cut and exemption. Each entry carries a reason.self_test.pyis the self-test.core::fmtdispatch,Once::call, once_cell and perryHotKeyresolvers.io::Errorcustom-payload drop, std'sOS_FUNCTIONS, and Mach-O TLV.forbidpremises (for example, no mimalloc hook is registered) turn a reason into a check.Reenters.classify_direct_calleereads the three tables and takes the most conservative class per symbol; a symbol missing from any table isUnknown.Leaf→CannotCollect.AllocOnly→AllocNoReentry. This is unchanged: a leaf only under the researchPERRY_GC_SAFEPOINT_ONLY.ThrowOnly/Reenters→Unknown.OVERRIDESis empty, and a test asserts that any override names a symbol absent from the graph.root_reload's hand-keptNON_COLLECTINGmust now agree with the table.invokearm calls the sameclassify_direct_callee.js_array_lengthis classified AllocNoReentry but its Proxy arm runs user JS (get trap + number coercion) #11522 / fix(gc): CannotCollect helpers can collect when a GcRootRegistryGuard drop flushes a deferred GC request — enforce or remove #11523. Both runtime fixes landed on main while this PR was open (js_array_length_leafsplit;lock_gc_root_registry_noncollecting). Run against the new base, the graph gives these results:js_array_lengthis classified AllocNoReentry but its Proxy arm runs user JS (get trap + number coercion) #11522:js_array_lengthisReenters(witness:proxy_get_with_receiver), andjs_array_length_leafisLeaf.js_object_alloc_class_inline_keys*andjs_object_get_own_field_or_undefstayReenters: the graph still finds JS on their paths.GcRootRegistryGuard, so every guard's drop glue still contained the flushing arm. The graph therefore still proved all 23 helpers collecting. This PR makes the non-collecting guard a distinct type,NonCollectingRootRegistryGuard(gc/roots.rs, ~40 lines, no behaviour change), whose drop has no path toflush_deferred_gc_request. 17 of the 23 are now provablyLeaf. The other 6 reach JS or a materializing allocator on their own paths.RUST_TEST_THREADS=1 cargo test --release -p perry-runtime --lib gc::: 1504 passed.exit_gc_root_lock$) so it does not match_noncollecting.Rebase onto S2 (#11554)
S2 merged first and hand-listed its four GC-leaf IC hits in the old
CannotCollectallowlist. On rebase the generated table is authoritative and the hand list is gone. All three tables were regenerated on the new base (linux-x86_64 and windows-x86_64 viacargo xwinon perrymaster, macos-aarch64 on a Mac).regen.sh --checkreports all three identical to the archives.js_object_get_field_ic_fast,js_class_field_get_ic_fast,js_class_field_set_ic_fastandjs_put_value_set_packed_fastcome outLeafon every target. Their continuations (js_*_ic_fast_miss,js_put_value_set_packed_miss) come outReenters. A new test,ic_fast_split_hits_are_leaf_and_their_continuations_collect, pins both halves.Arena as DropTLS destructor thattls_hot::fillregisters is already theteardowncut inseeds.txt.typed_feedback::invalidate_representation_changetakes the registry throughNonCollectingRootRegistryGuard, whose drop has no path to a flush.js_inherited_read_cache_hit_f64staysReentersbecause it reaches theaccessor_hitgetter call (see Measurement). Recovering it needs a runtime split, which is a follow-up.gc-call-effects (windows-x86_64)leg failed withsymbol `PERRY_AGENT_PTRS` is already defined. On MSVC, rustc emits a thread-local shim under the static's own name, so the#[no_mangle] #[thread_local]static cannot build forx86_64-pc-windows-msvc; a minimal crate reproduces the error.PERRY_AGENT_PTRSis now#[cfg_attr(not(windows), no_mangle)]. Only ELF executables name the symbol; Windows already took the accessor call.CI

Sabotage: a plantedjs_proxy_getcall in a Leaf helper must come backReenters, and the table check must report it as UNSAFE drift.run_lint_gates.shpicks the step up; 95/96 gates pass, and the one failure is the known public-baseline red.gc-call-effects-linuxreusesgap-suite-build's archives in fast mode and builds them itself in the full tier.gc-call-effectsis a matrix:macos-aarch64builds onmacos-14;windows-x86_64builds withcargo xwinon ubuntu.ci_plan.py(PR tier for core scope, plus sweep and full) and fan intopr-gate.

js_inherited_read_cache_hit_f64(+12.9 k) reachesaccessor_hit, which calls the compiled getter. The helper returns early on accessor entries, but that guard is data-dependent, so the object code still contains the path. A runtime split into a data-only lookup would recover it (follow-up).js_typed_feedback_class_field_set_guard(+3.1 k) andjs_param_type_guardreach descriptor lookups whose register-routedbcmpcall the CFG cannot pin through a switch table.js_throw,js_get_iterator,js_async_*) are more live values across calls that were already safepoints.An earlier revision of this PR, before the fix(gc): CannotCollect helpers can collect when a GcRootRegistryGuard drop flushes a deferred GC request — enforce or remove #11523 type split, measured +23 % relocations. The 23 guard-flush helpers alone added +99 k. That is what the soundness fix costs without the runtime change.
