fix(gc): count empty across handle wrappers as debt - #9208
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe raw-handle debt checker now counts empty ChangesRaw handle debt cleanup
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The PR strengthens GC-handle enforcement, but the current implementation still risks stale-pointer writes during module updates and incorrect script metadata lookup after garbage collection, while the checker misses some no-op wrappers. These correctness gaps should be fixed before merge. Suggested reviewers: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Register script metadata with the final object pointer.
make_script inserts metadata before string_value, set_field, and cached_data_buffer. If GC moves the rooted object during these calls, script_metadata uses the returned pointer and misses the map entry. The run methods then return undefined, and createCachedData falls back to hash 0. Insert the metadata after the field writes within the final with_mut_ptr.

Root the module before string_value allocates
set_status calls string_value(status), which allocates through string_storage_alloc. The surrounding with_hmut passes a raw pointer through RuntimeHandle::with_mut_ptr, which does not refresh that pointer during the callback. set_field roots the module only after its arguments are evaluated. If the allocation moves the module, both writes can use a stale address. Root the module at the start of set_status, and use its refreshed pointer for each write.

Count comment-only empty closures.
PAT misses valid no-op closures such as || /* no-op */ () and || { /* no-op */ }. count() scans raw Rust text, so these wrappers are treated as debt-free by the ratchet. Use Rust-aware comment stripping or syntax-aware matching, and add a comment-only form to must_match.

Merged. Closes #9152, which I filed after finding these wrappers while reviewing #9103 — and this is the right resolution rather than the one I could have pushed for. I'd raised it as "these sites are vacuous"; the fix is better than deleting them, because it makes the gate able to see the shape. An Checked the matcher for under-counting, because that's a scanner's dangerous failure direction — a regex that silently stops matching reports zero and passes forever. Your self-test already asserts both directions with turbofish, multiline Ran all three CI invocations, not just one, since
So the 17 removals genuinely landed without buying headroom, which is the claim worth verifying. Validation: |
