Can we have a microbenchmark which illustrates the effect of this change for ClonedArguments? And can you measure the perf effect on that? ClonedArguments is used when `arguments` in strict mode, so, it is one of the frequently used critical object. We need to keep performance for this.

I've deferred fixing putByIndex() to a follow-up; new patch fixes only non-index put(), with following microbenchmark results:

This is awesome. r=me

This is a bit incorrect, but the incorrectness is unobservable.

"Hello".length = 42;

This should be an error when we are assigning this value to StringObject materialized from "Hello". But we avoid materializing it (that's important optimization), and we are querying to StringPrototype first.
And since StringPrototype has the same "length" property, we are anyway throwing an error.

Can we have an explicit test for this? ("Hello".length = 42 in sloppy and strict modes) And can we have FIXME comment about it here?

Let's make it

scope.release();
customSetter(globalObject, JSValue::encode(slot.thisValue()), JSValue::encode(value), propertyName);
return true;

> Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSObject.cpp:831
> +                    RELEASE_AND_RETURN(scope, customSetter(globalObject, JSValue::encode(obj), JSValue::encode(value), propertyName));

Should we return true too?

This is awesome.

One optimization idea I think. Should we check `structure->typeInfo().overridesPut()` even for the originating object?
Let's consider a case,

[A: object, which overrides put] -[[Prototype]]-> [B: object, which does not override put]

In that case, when calling A::put, we are already in A::put. And then we can consider whether we can use fast-path put or not. At that point, I think we do not need to check OverridesPut for the initial object since we already called A::put, is my understanding correct?
RegExpObject, ErrorInstance, JSFunction, TypedArrays, and Arguments objects are the cases.

(If we do this optimization, we also need to take care for Object.assign case since that function directly calls it.)

Can we remove `Context context() const { return static_cast<Context>(m_context); }`'s cast?

Can we make it a bit? (`bool m_isTaintedByOpaqueObject : 1`). And we need to put `false` initialization in the constructor.

> Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/PutPropertySlot.h:142
>      uint8_t m_context;

Can we use Context instead of uint8_t?

Many thanks for reviewing this, Yusuke!
Your comments were extremely helpful and led me to discovering a several bugs.

Added JSTests/stress/put-to-primitive.js

> And can we have FIXME comment about it here?

I've added an inline check for string & "length" instead, which is fine considering new primitive wrappers are unlikely to be exotic.

Fixed (and for JSRemoteDOMWindow::put() as well).
Nice, it's now aligned with userland Accessor.

I don't think so: a CustomValue handles writability on its own, without toggling PropertyAttribute::ReadOnly (for performance reasons),
so it may return `false` + throw an exception. A good example of that is RegExp's "lastIndex" setter.

Yes, absolutely. putInlineSlow() has the same assumption: once ordinary put() is reached, all special properties were already handled.
This is a great suggestion that led me to discovering two flaws in handling of non-reified static properties:
  1. We can't handle them only in putInlineSlow() since an object may not have read-only properties / accessors / put() override.
  2. Reflect.set called on receiver should also correctly handle non-reified static functions (preserve attributes) / accessors (throw).

putInlineFastReplacingStaticPropertyIfNeeded() was introduced to fix those; test coverage was expanded.

> RegExpObject, ErrorInstance, JSFunction, TypedArrays, and Arguments objects are the cases.

This will benefit pretty much all built-ins by using putInlineFast() at least for %BuiltIn%.prototype -> Object.prototype segment of the [[Set]].
Most built-ins' prototypes are exotic or have read-only symbols though.

Object.assign calls canPerformFastPutInline() only on JSFinalObjects, so no tweaking required.
