Profiling in clustered environments doesn't work out of the box.
By default, V8 writes the profile data of all processes to a single
v8.log.
Running that log file through a tick processor produces bogus numbers
because many events won't match up with the recorded memory mappings
and you end up with graphs where 80+% of ticks is unaccounted for.
Fixing the tick processor to deal with multi-process output is not very
useful because the processes may be running wildly disparate workloads.
That's why we fix up the command line arguments to include
a "--logfile=v8-%p.log" argument (where %p is expanded to the PID)
unless it already contains a --logfile argument.
Fixes#4617.
Keeping list of all sockets that were sent to child process causes memory
leak and thus unacceptable (see #4587). However `server.close()` should
still work properly.
This commit introduces two options:
* child.send(socket, { track: true }) - will send socket and track its status.
You should use it when you want to receive `close` event on sent sockets.
* child.send(socket) - will send socket without tracking it status. This
performs much better, because of smaller number of RTT between master and
child.
With both of these options `server.close()` will wait for all sent
sockets to get closed.

This commit introduces two options:
* child.send(socket, { track: true }) - will send socket and track its status.
You should use it when you want `server.connections` to be a reliable
number, and receive `close` event on sent sockets.
* child.send(socket) - will send socket without tracking it status. This
performs much better, because of smaller number of RTT between master and

Unfortunately, it's just too slow to do this in events.js. Users will
just have to live with not having events named __proto__ or toString.

This test starts two clustered HTTP servers on the same port.
It expects the first cluster to succeed and the second cluster
to fail with EADDRINUSE.
Reapplies commit cacd3ae, accidentally reverted in a2851b6.
Reject negative offsets in SlowBuffer::MakeFastBuffer(), it allows
the creation of buffers that point to arbitrary addresses.

V8 seems to be particularly slow converting an undefined value to false
in BooleanValue.
Revert this when we upgrade to V8 3.17, or whenever the fix discussed
in http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2487 lands in V8.
Problem 1: If stream.push() triggers a 'readable' event, and the user
calls `read(n)` with some n > the highWaterMark, then the push() will
return false (indicating that they should not push any more), but no
future 'readable' event is coming (because we're above the
highWaterMark).
Solution: return true from push() when needReadable is set.
Problem 2: A read(n) for n != 0, after the stream had encountered an
EOF, would not trigger the 'end' event if the EOF was pushed in
synchronously by the _read() function.
Solution: Check for ended in stream.read() and schedule an end event if
the length now equals 0.
Fix#4585
Improved assert check order of execution and added additional checks on
parameters to ensure no bad values make it through (e.g. negative offset
values).
Improvements:
* floating point operations are approx 4x's faster
* Now write quiet NaN's
* all read/write on floating point now done in C, so no more need for
lib/buffer_ieee754.js
* float values have more accurate min/max value checks
* add additional benchmarks for buffers read/write
* created benchmark/_bench_timer.js which is a simple library that
can be included into any benchmark and provides an intelligent tracker
for sync and async tests
* add benchmarks for DataView set methods
* add checks and tests to make sure offset is greater than 0
Make tools/install.py work with python 2.5
2.5 is still fairly widespread and does not include a json lib as
standard. Most python folk will have simplejson if they are in that
boat.
In general it seems a bit tricky to solve this perfectly...
There was previously an assert() in there, but this part of the code is
so high-volume that the added cost made a measurable dent in http_simple.
Just checking inline is fine, though, and prevents a lot of potential
hazards.
Say that a stream's current read queue has 101 bytes in it, and the
underlying resource has ended (ie, reached EOF).
If you do something like this:
stream.read(100); // leave a byte behind
stream.read(0); // read(0) for some reason
then the read(0) will get 0 from the howMuchToRead function. Since the
stream was ended, this was incorrectly treating the 0 as a "there is no
more in the buffer", and emitting 'end' before that last byte was read.
Why have the read(0) in the first place? We do this in some cases to
trigger the last few bytes of a net socket (such as a child process's
stdio pipes). This was causing issues when piping a `git archive` job
to a file: the resulting tarball was incomplete, because it occasionally
was not getting the last chunk.

Fixes#4586.
Remove compiler switches from $(TOPLEVEL)/deps/v8/build/common.gypi,
we set them globally in $(TOPLEVEL)/common.gypi.
Commit 7b4d95a introduced the switches again, resulting in V8 getting
built without any optimizations.
This commit is essentially a rehash of commit 4b8629d.
