Add a watchdog class which executes a timer in a separate event loop in
a separate thread that will terminate v8 execution if it expires.
Add timeout argument to functions in vm module which use the watchdog
if a non-zero timeout is specified.
Since _tickCallback and _tickDomainCallback were both called from
MakeCallback, it was possible for a callback to be called that required
a domain directly to _tickCallback.
The fix was to implement process.usingDomains(). This will set all
applicable functions to their domain counterparts, and set a flag in cc
to let MakeCallback know domain callbacks always need to be checked.
Added test in own file. It's important that the test remains isolated.
This reverts commit ea1cba6246.
The offending commit was intended to land on the v0.8 branch only, but
it accidentally got merged at some point.
Closes#5054.
It's cleaner to only load domain ticker logic when the domains are being
used. This makes execution slightly quicker in both cases, and simpler
from the spinner since there is no need to check if the latest callback
requires use of domains.
Not necessary, since we can handle the error properly on the first tick
now, even if there are event listeners, etc.
Additionally, this removes the unnecessary "_needTickCallback" from
startup, since Module.loadMain() will kick off a nextTick callback right
after it runs the main module.
Fix#4856
It seems like a good idea on the face of it, but lowWaterMarks are
actually not useful, and in practice should always be set to zero.
It would be worthwhile for writers if we actually did some kind of
writev() type of thing, but actually this just delays calling write()
and the overhead of doing a bunch of Buffer copies is not worth the
slight benefit of calling write() fewer times.
Using external memory values allows for quick communication between js
and cc land, so we can check if the js land callback needs to be run.
(this is where I meant that manually tracking nextTickQueue.length would
be helpful)
Also did some minor cleanup of removing the old Tick and
StartTickSpinner functions, and a few unneeded comments.
Conflicts:
src/node.cc
* Callbacks from spinner now calls its own function, separate from the
tickCallback logic
* MakeCallback will call a domain specific function if a domain is
detected
* _tickCallback assumes no domains, until nextTick receives a callback
with a domain. After that _tickCallback is overridden with the domain
specific implementation.
* _needTickCallback runs in startup() instead of nextTick (isaacs)
* Fix bug in _fatalException where exit would be called twice (isaacs)
* Process.domain has a default value of null
* Manually track nextTickQueue.length (will be useful later)
* Update tests to reflect internal api changes
This reverts commit 0109a9f90a.
Also included: Port all the changes to process._makeCallback into the
C++ version. Immediate nextTick, etc.
This yields a slight boost in several benchmarks. V8 is optimizing and
deoptimizing process._makeCallback repeatedly.
If the NODE_DEBUGGER_TIMEOUT environment variable is set, then use
that as the number of ms to wait for the debugger to start.
This is primarily to work around a race condition that almost never
happens in real usage with the debugger, but happens EVERY FRACKING
TIME when the debugger tests run as part of 'make test'.
Due to the nature of asyncronous programming, it's impossible to know
what will run on the next tick. Because of this, it's not correct to
maintain domain stack state between ticks
Since the _fatalException handler is only invoked after the stack is
unwound, once it exits the tick will end. The only reasonable thing to
do in that case is to exit *all* domains.
While it's true that error objects have a history of getting snake_case
properties attached by the host system, it's a point of confusion to
Node users that comes up a lot. It's still 'experimental', so best to
change this sooner rather than later.
This adds a process._fatalException method which is called into from
C++ in order to either emit the 'uncaughtException' method, or emit
'error' on the active domain.
The 'uncaughtException' event is an implementation detail that it would
be nice to deprecate one day, so exposing it as part of the domain
machinery is not ideal.
Fix#4375
When there is an error that is thrown in a nextTick function, which is
then handled by a domain or other process.on('uncaughtException')
handler, if the error handler *also* adds a nextTick and triggers
multiple MakeCallback events (ie, by doing some I/O), then it would
skip over the tickDepth check, resulting in an infinite spin.
Solution: Check the tickDepth at the start of the tick processing, and
preserve it when we are cleaning up in the error case or exiting early
in the re-entry case.
In order to make sure that tick callbacks are *eventually* handled, any
callback triggered by the underlying spinner in libuv will be processed
as if starting from a tick depth of 0.
* When the process is already dead, but the `exit` signal wasn't raised
yet, the ESRCH error should be ignored.
* When an invalid signal is specified, kill() should throw.
* Like process.kill(), child_process.kill() now preserves a `0` signal
which can be used to check the liveliness of the child process.
* process.kill() and child_process.kill() will now return true if the
signal was actually delivered, and false otherwise.
* When an `exec`-ed process is automatically killed because a time or
buffer limit is exceeded, and the kill() fails, this error should be
reported through the `exec` callback.
Fixes: #3409
In case a worker would spawn a new subprocess with process.env, NODE_UNIQUE_ID
would have been a part of the env. Making the new subprocess believe it is a
worker, this would result in some confusion if the subprocess where to listen to
a port, since the server handle request would then be relayed to the worker.
This patch removes the NODE_UNIQUE_ID flag from process.env on startup so any
subprocess spawned by a worker is a normal process with no cluster stuff.
Prevents accidental inheritance by child processes. If the child process is a
node process, it would try to set up a channel with the parent and consequently
never quit because the channel kept the event loop alive.
Fixes#3240.
This patch now reports the proper throw call site for exceptions
triggered within process.nextTick. So instead of this:
node.js:201
throw e; // process.nextTick error, or 'error' event on first tick
^
You will now see:
mydir/myscript.js:15
throw new Error('My Error');
^
From my testing this patch causes no performance regressions, but does
greatly simplify processing the nextTickQueue.
