This is one of the major reasons DeltaBlue is slow with Baseline right now. |CreateThis| for constructing calls ends up assigning the same TypeObject to prototype objects which should have different types.

Comment on attachment 717298 [details] [diff] [review] Patch Review of attachment 717298 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- I have a couple concerns with this patch: - It will be extremely rare for UseNewType to return true, and I think it would be cleaner if Baseline just didn't attach a stub in this case rather than add machinery so that the stub can construct 'this' objects with singleton type. - The InvokeConstructor call made in DoCallFallback when there is not yet a stub doesn't look like it will create a singleton type for the new object. The UseNewType bits seem to be ignored by this function when entering baseline or Ion code, and while the interpreter calls UseNewTypeAtEntry, that function just looks at StackFrames and will probably behave incorrectly when the previous frame is an Ion activation. This is more invasive, but I think it would be better if the newType flag was passed through InvokeConstructor, that jitcode is not entered when newType is set, and the interpreter uses the passed in flag.

Good eye on catching that oversight. I agree with most of your commentary, but I'm not sure about the suggested idea of threading the flag through the family of Invoke functions, through RunScript, and into Interpreter. For such a rarely used flag that is largely tangential to real execution semantics, adding it in as an explicit argument seems to give it more explicit mention than it justifies. Here's a new patch that computes that info within |RunScript| and passes it into |js::Interpret| (as well as the entry functions to Ion and Baseline). I'm posting two patches: The first changes RunScript to use a ScriptIter to calculate the newScript flag, and pass it into Ion, Baseline, and the Interpreter. This necessitate adding a newScript boolean argment to js::Interpret. The second patch changes newScript to be a bit on the flag field of the StackFrame object. This allows eliminating newScript as an argument from many functions. If this looks OK, I can push the second patch into inbound, and the first into baseline.

There are two copies of the arguments: one in "reverse" order in the baseline frame proper, and a copy (in correct order) in the stub frame. The pointer passed to the C++ function is hte latter. The value array in the stub frame aren't traced. This is not an issue right now because the args are kept live from their traced roots in the BaselineFrame, but the copied array won't be stable once we have a moving GC.
