fix(runtime): no Rust frame is ever a longjmp target — cc --help segfault fixed, parity gate back online (#9305) - #9323
Conversation
…rryTS#9305) rustc cannot express returns_twice, so a raw setjmp in a Rust frame is compiled under LLVM's one-return assumption — stack slots live only into the longjmp path get colored into unrelated normal-path temporaries. run_microtasks crashed exactly this way (cached TLS base spill reused by the task-record copy loop). No Rust frame is a longjmp target anymore: perry_sjlj_try (C, compiled with real setjmp semantics) is the only twice-returning frame, and Rust callers use exception::arm_trap_and_run / catch_js_throw. The one remaining raw setjmp (gc/roots.rs register snapshot) never longjmps and is documented as such. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014knX724SYDogwzsXybCGxp
…rt unit tests Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014knX724SYDogwzsXybCGxp
…trampoline (PerryTS#9305) Same hazard class as the runtime sites: raw setjmp in a Rust frame is compiled without returns_twice. perry-stdlib goes through exception::catch_js_throw; perry-ext-fastify (no Cargo dep on perry-runtime by design) declares the perry_sjlj_try C symbol directly and mirrors arm_trap_and_run locally. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014knX724SYDogwzsXybCGxp
…erryTS#9305 fallout) The transport fix unmasked this second regression: js_regex_to_rust spells ECMAScript's ASCII \b/\B as (?-iu:\b) (PerryTS#9263), which the regex crate accepts but fancy-regex rejects (NonUnicodeUnsupported). Any lookaround/backreference pattern with a word boundary was a SyntaxError — cli.js's marked html-block regex among them; its throw inside a microtask was the longjmp that the miscompiled runner turned into the --help SIGSEGV. build_fancy_regex now rewrites the translator's marker (unambiguous — '(?-iu:' cannot survive from user input) into the one-char-lookaround boundary spelling the i+u path already uses. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014knX724SYDogwzsXybCGxp
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe runtime now arms longjmp-capable exception traps through a compiled C trampoline and centralizes Rust-side exception capture. Microtask and callback paths use the new helpers. The regex builder rewrites incompatible ASCII word-boundary markers. Regression tests cover both fixes. ChangesC-trampoline exception transport
Fancy-regex word-boundary compatibility
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR fixes the crash and regex failure, but a remaining EventLoop throw path can repeat microtask accounting, rejection handling, and timer processing, causing incorrect runtime behavior; unused imports can also break warning-deny builds. The generic exception helper requires owner awareness because non-local throws bypass Rust destructor cleanup, so the PR is not merge-ready until the phase-handling issue is resolved.

Describe the compile failure consistently.
Lines 3-6 state that fancy-regex rejected the pattern. Line 7 instead says the pattern lost word boundaries. The pattern did not compile, so it could not run with missing boundary semantics. Replace this wording with a statement that affected patterns raised SyntaxError before matching.
Based on learnings, changelog fragments must describe the final shipped behavior as one coherent release-note entry.

Leftover use std::os::raw::c_int; in four test modules. Each catch_runtime_throw helper now delegates to catch_js_throw, so the c_int type used by the removed setjmp call is no longer referenced. rustc reports unused_imports in all four modules, which fails any build that denies warnings. The sibling files in this layer (combinators.rs, domain.rs, querystring.rs, streams.rs) already dropped the import.

Make the post-drain phases idempotent, or move them out of pump_protected. In MicrotaskDrainMode::EventLoop, the drain_queued_microtasks_count() call after js_callback_timer_tick() invokes callbacks without an inner trap. A throw there reaches the outer arm_trap_and_run, which re-enters pump_protected and decrements MICROTASK_RUN_DEPTH.jobs a second time. This can consume the enclosing pump's count and rerun process_rejections() and the timer phase. Keep the jobs decrement, rejection processing, and timer phases outside the re-armed region, or guard them with caller-frame state.

Correct the comment: this case does not use queueMicrotask.
The comment describes a queueMicrotask callback and "the queued-microtask context restore". The code below uses Promise.resolve().then(...), which is the same shape as the chain at Lines 24-30. The distinguishing property of this case is that it produces a second landing in the same drain, which the comment also states.
Either fix the comment or switch the case to a real queueMicrotask callback if that path is meant to be covered.

Merged. I verified the structural claim independently rather than taking the census on trust, since "no Rust frame is ever a longjmp target" is the whole guarantee here.
The trampoline itself is textbook: Verification on my side: Two things I appreciated in the writeup. Correcting the issue's own analysis by measurement — machine-code-identical |
Fixes #9305, the release blocker:
cc --helpsegfaulted deterministically on main, taking the byte-parity-vs-node gate offline for every runtime measurement. It was two stacked regressions, fixed in separate commits.cc --helpis now rc=0, 9,175 bytes, byte-identical to node, 5/5 runs.Regression 1 — the crash: a setjmp miscompile that no source-level fix could reach
The confirmed coloring (differential disassembly of the preserved good/bad pair):
run_microtasksspills the compiler-cached TLS base (mov %fs:0x0,%rax→0x38(%rsp)) beforesetjmp; the task-record copy loop stores into the same slot on the normal path; the longjmp-return branch reloads it and faults. The corrupted value is a compiler temporary with no source name — so the existing #8937-style discipline of re-reading TLS after a landing could never fix this class. That settled the fix choice.A correction to the issue's analysis, established by measurement: the good and bad builds have machine-code-identical
run_microtasks(normalized diff = addresses only). The bisect window did not change the coloring — the hazard is old and latent in every build. gdb counters during--help: good build = 7 slot-clobbers, 0 longjmp landings; bad build = 5 clobbers, 1 landing → SIGSEGV. What the window introduced was the throw (regression 2 below).The fix: structural, by construction
No Rust frame is ever a longjmp target. A 10-line C trampoline
perry_sjlj_try(compiled viaccin build.rs, bundled intolibperry_runtime.a) is the only framesetjmpreturns twice into; Rust arms exclusively throughexception::arm_trap_and_run/catch_js_throwand sees a single-return call. rustc cannot expressreturns_twice(the attribute was removed from the language), so the one twice-returning frame is compiled by a C compiler that knows setjmp's contract — making LLVM's assumptions valid for current and future sites alike. ~39 sites converted (30 runtime, 7 stdlib, 2 ext-fastify).Proven by census, not assertion:
objdump -drover the whole runtime archive shows exactly two setjmp-family relocations — the trampoline (sole longjmp target, textbook-safe disasm) and the GC register-snapshot's setjmp (never longjmp'd; documented as the deliberate exception). The app binary contains exactly onecall _setjmp@plt.run_microtaskscontains no setjmp at all.run_microtasks' protected region becamepump_protected(...)with a re-arm loop, so a throw from rejection plumbing lands in a live frame — the placement rule is documented onarm_trap_and_run. Also fixed in passing:ranwas itself a modified-after-setjmp local (formally indeterminate after a landing); now deterministic behind&mut.A fast reproducer, forever
The coloring lives in the prebuilt archive, so it is app-independent:
test_issue_9305_throw_in_microtask.tsSIGSEGVs 3/3 in seconds on the pristine base with the same disasm signature, and is pinned by an integration test. No cc compile is ever needed to regress-test this again.Regression 2 — unmasked by fixing the crash: fancy-regex rejects #9263's
\bmarkerWith the crash gone,
--helpexited 1:SyntaxError: Invalid regular expressionon marked's html-block regex. #9263 spells ASCII\b/\Bas(?-iu:\b)— valid for the linearregexcrate, but fancy-regex's parser rejects theuflag. So any lookbehind/backreference pattern containing a word boundary was a SyntaxError; cli.js builds exactly such a regex inside a promise chain — which is the throw-in-microtask that detonated regression 1. Confirmed pre-existing on the pristine base.Fix (separate commit):
build_fancy_regexrewrites the translator-only marker into the one-char-lookaround boundary spelling.(?-iu:cannot survive from user input — it is a JS SyntaxError — so the rewrite can only ever see the translator's own output. The linear fast path is untouched; a unit test pins compile+match including the full marked pattern.Verification
