Follow-up to #9066, carrying the review-round changes that were in flight when the PR merged (plus the review's own findings). The regex-engine cfg fix landed in #9066 via the maintainer's commit; everything else is here.

The write-only storage bug (the "squeeze loses survivor values" report)

Root-caused: not the squeeze, and not the values — they sat intact in the overflow spill the whole time (verified slot-by-slot: ov6=Some(11.0) ov7=Some(22.0) ov8=Some(33.0) while every by-name read returned undefined). The Map/Set-iterator arm in the by-name GET tail ended with if key_bytes != b"next" { return undefined } — every non-next property read short-circuited without consulting own fields, so #9066's storage was write-only through that lane. Some compiled reads worked via IC lanes, which is why single-property probes (and the PR's own gap cases) passed while the 12-property/10-delete shape failed.

The arm now lives in accessors::map_set_iterator_property with own-field shadowing first (ordinary [[Get]] order — an own return patch now also shadows the synthetic binding), and get_field_by_name_tail.rs comes back under the 2000-line cap (1981, was exactly 2000).

The other two items

  • Present-but-undefined own next (CodeRabbit's inline find on fix(runtime): reserve iterator raw-field floor so own .next patches stop corrupting state (#9019) #9066): it.next = undefined is present and non-callable — GetV yields the stored undefined and Call throws. The dispatcher probe adds a bytes-based keys presence scan (no allocation; an unpatched iterator's keys edge is null, so the hot path pays one null check) and throws per IteratorNext instead of silently running the builtin advance.
  • Seed-failure hardening: if the reserved-floor seed cannot allocate, the by-name append and the defineProperty keys claim now DROP the write instead of proceeding unseeded onto field 0.

Validation

  • test-files/test_gap_iterator_patched_next.ts extended to 16 cases (N: 12 adds + 10 deletes with survivor-value assertions across the hole-squeeze; O: own return shadowing; P: it.next = undefined throws under for…of) — byte-identical against the pinned Node 26.5.1 oracle, on a base that includes perf(runtime): preserve shared shape index across delete #9067's shared-shape-index-across-delete work.
  • RUST_TEST_THREADS=1 cargo test -p perry-runtime --lib: 2793 passed, 0 failed (6 reserved_floor tests incl. user_properties_read_back_through_the_get_path_at_scale, the exact reviewer repro shape).
  • cargo check -p perry (the feature-off configuration that caught the cfg break): clean.
  • raw_handle_debt.py bare run: 964 vs baseline 967, all ceilings; no new bare reads.
  • Full gap suite on this head (pinned Node 26.5.1): effective 574/585. The run initially reported 26 compile failures; every one traced to a single local-harness artifact — the changelog-fragment commit landed after the PERRY_BIN build, so the per-test auto-optimize arm built archives stamped with the newer HEAD commit and Perry's runtime-coherence check refused the pair ("runtime library does not match this Perry compiler"). Rebuilt at HEAD, all 26 pass through the harness, including the entire http/net/fetch/wasm set and both zlib tests. The 11 residual failures are all pre-existing and accounted: the 5 gap_snapshot.json known-fails, the 5 npm-package local-env fails, and set_map_foreach_fused_receiver (Set/Map forEach with mid-iteration delete visits holes and skips entries (gap test red on main) #9072, pre-existing on main).
  • scripts/run_lint_gates.sh: all 60 gates green on this head.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Fixed property reads on Map and Set iterators so custom properties can be retrieved correctly.
    • Custom properties now properly override built-in iterator methods.
    • Explicitly setting an iterator’s next property to undefined now correctly raises a TypeError.
    • Prevented property writes from being lost when reserved storage cannot be initialized.
    • Preserved custom properties and iteration behavior after properties are deleted.
  • Tests

    • Added regression coverage for custom iterator properties, method overrides, deletion scenarios, and invalid next overrides.

…d next throws

Follow-up to #9066 (review items that did not make the merge):

- The Map/Set-iterator arm in the by-name GET tail answered undefined for
  every non-next key without consulting own fields, which made the
  reserved-floor storage write-only: 12 stored properties all read back
  undefined, and hole-squeeze survivors appeared to lose values that sat
  intact in the overflow spill the whole time (some compiled reads worked
  via IC lanes, masking it for single-property probes). The arm now lives
  in accessors::map_set_iterator_property with own-field shadowing first
  — ordinary [[Get]] order, so an own return patch also shadows the
  synthetic binding — and the tail file returns under the size cap.

- An own next EXPLICITLY assigned undefined is present-but-non-callable:
  the dispatcher probe adds a bytes-based keys presence scan (no
  allocation; an unpatched iterator pays one null check) and throws per
  IteratorNext instead of silently running the builtin advance.

- If the reserved-floor seed cannot allocate, the by-name append and the
  defineProperty keys claim DROP the write instead of proceeding unseeded
  onto field 0 (the backing-collection pointer).

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR updates Map/Set iterator property reads, preserves own-property shadowing, prevents unseeded reserved-floor writes, and distinguishes an absent next property from an own next set to undefined. Unit and integration tests cover these cases.

Changes

Iterator property semantics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Iterator GET dispatch and shadowing
crates/perry-runtime/src/object/field_get_set/accessors.rs, crates/perry-runtime/src/object/field_get_set/get_field_by_name_tail.rs, crates/perry-runtime/src/object/reserved_floor.rs, changelog.d/9075-iterator-own-prop-reads.md
The Map/Set iterator GET path checks own data fields before synthetic methods. The next key falls through to generic resolution. Own return and other stored properties now read back correctly.
Reserved-floor storage and readback
crates/perry-runtime/src/object/field_set_by_name/tail.rs, crates/perry-runtime/src/object/object_ops/keys_array.rs, crates/perry-runtime/src/object/reserved_floor.rs, test-files/test_gap_iterator_patched_next.ts
Reserved-floor writes stop when key seeding fails. Tests cover property readback after deletion and hole squeezing, backing-field preservation, and continued iteration.
Own next property presence
crates/perry-runtime/src/object/iterator_prototypes.rs, test-files/test_gap_iterator_patched_next.ts
The iterator checks own-key presence when lookup returns undefined. An own next = undefined value now follows the non-callable error path instead of the built-in iterator path.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to a9177

Iterator properties installed through accessors may currently be bypassed in favor of synthetic methods, so code relying on getters such as it.return could observe incorrect behavior. The risk is localized and mergeable with explicit owner follow-up; the remaining changelog issue is cosmetic.

Preserve own accessor precedence before synthetic methods.

map_set_iterator_property checks only own data fields before binding return, throw, and @@iterator. An accessor installed with Object.defineProperty is skipped, so it.return can return the synthetic method instead of invoking the getter. Check the own accessor descriptor before synthetic dispatch. Add a regression test with Object.defineProperty(it, "return", { get: () => 1234 }).

Merged. The core observation is a good one and worth restating, because it is the kind of thing that reads as correct right up until you write the test:

it.next = undefined is PRESENT but non-callable, which the value read alone cannot distinguish from absence.

That is exactly right per the spec — GetV yields the stored undefined, and Call then throws — and a != TAG_UNDEFINED check collapses the two cases into "absent", silently falling back to the builtin advance. Reaching for a keys-array presence scan instead of the value is the right discriminator.

Extracting the GET arm into accessors::map_set_iterator_property preserves the resolution order exactly — I diffed it arm by arm: own field first (the new part), then the return/throw/@@iterator binds, nextNone so the generic scans keep iterator.next.call(other) brand-checking, and every other key → Some(undefined) as before. The write-only bug it fixes is a nice catch: returning undefined for every non-next key without consulting own fields meant stored properties could never be read back, so #9066's seeded storage looked like it was losing values when they were sitting in the overflow spill the whole time.

The own_present hot path costs what the comment says. Rust's || short-circuits, so for an unpatched iterator (own is undefined) the block does run — one object_keys_array call and a null check, no allocation — and for a patched one it is skipped entirely.

A/B against main, 15 shapes, node v26.5.1:

shape main this PR
5 it.next = undefined; it.next() returns {value:1,done:false} TypeError
6 it.next = undefined; for…of it iterates [1,2,3] TypeError
11 own return shadows the synthetic undefined 1234
10 typeof it.return "function" "function" (node: "undefined")

Rows wrong: main 4/15 → this PR 1/15, no regressions.

Row 10 is not yours — the return/throw/@@iterator bind arm is copied verbatim from main and behaves identically on both sides. It is a real (small) spec gap though: %SetIteratorPrototype% has no return, so node answers "undefined" where we synthesize a bound method. Filed as #9086 so it doesn't get lost in the extraction.

Validation: runtime 2816 passed (RUST_TEST_THREADS=1), codegen 1347, perry --bins 1066, fmt clean, run_lint_gates.sh all 60 gates passed; 2 CI-only skipped.
