This commit migrates "deno_core" from using "FuturesUnordered" to "tokio::task::JoinSet". This makes every op to be a separate Tokio task and should unlock better utilization of kqueue/epoll. There were two quirks added to this PR: - because of the fact that "JoinSet" immediately polls spawn tasks, op sanitizers can give false positives in some cases, this was alleviated by polling event loop once before running a test with "deno test", which gives canceled ops an opportunity to settle - "JsRuntimeState::waker" was moved to "OpState::waker" so that FFI API can still use threadsafe functions - without this change the registered wakers were wrong as they would not wake up the whole "JsRuntime" but the task associated with an op --------- Co-authored-by: Matt Mastracci <matthew@mastracci.com> |

deno_ffi
This crate implements dynamic library ffi.
Performance
Deno FFI calls have extremely low overhead (~1ns on M1 16GB RAM) and perform on par with native code. Deno leverages V8 fast api calls and JIT compiled bindings to achieve these high speeds.
Deno.dlopen
generates an optimized and a fallback path. Optimized paths are
triggered when V8 decides to optimize the function, hence call through the Fast
API. Fallback paths handle types like function callbacks and implement proper
error handling for unexpected types, that is not supported in Fast calls.
Optimized calls enter a JIT compiled function "trampoline" that translates Fast
API values directly for symbol calls. JIT compilation itself is super fast,
thanks to tinycc
. Currently, the optimized path is only supported on Linux and
MacOS.
