Mix the full class ID into the cache index.
entry_index shifts class_id by 43 and selects product bits 40 through 48. Therefore, only class-ID bits 0 through 5 can affect the selected slot. The synthetic allocator used by js_object_create increments IDs by one, so distinct receivers with IDs 64 apart are reachable. For a fixed shape and key, alternating those receivers can replace the direct-mapped entry and cause a miss and re-prime on every alternation.
Hash a mixed full-width class ID before folding it into h. Add coverage that crosses 64 receiver class IDs.
Proposed fix
fn entry_index(class_id: u32, shape: u32, key_ptr: usize) -> usize {
+ let class_hash = (class_id as u64).wrapping_mul(0xD6E8_FEB8_6659_FD93);
// Interned key pointers are 8- or 16-byte aligned, so their low bits are
// zeros; fold the middle bits down before masking.

… it exists to serve #10834 is live in main (train 247, v0.5.1626) and makes inherited reads SLOWER than before it. Same binary, one environment variable apart: | fixture | `PERRY_INHERITED_IC=0` | cache on | | |---|---|---|---| | 8 `Object.create` receivers via an array | 1525.00 | 1600.00 | **+75** | | one `Object.create` receiver, no own keys | 1375.00 | 1481.00 | **+106** | The cache was pure overhead: the probe ran on every read, never served, and the chain walk proceeded unchanged. The counters say why, and they rule out the obvious guess. All four inherited counters read ZERO on the single-receiver fixture — including `declines` — so the prime was never CALLED, not merely refused. Two independent defects: ## A. The prime site is gated on the wrong miss reason `get_field_ic_miss_impl` primes only under `matches!(miss_reason, R::NotOwn)`. A receiver with no keys array reports `ObjectNoKeys` and returns from an earlier arm, several hundred lines before the prime. `Object.create(p)` with nothing of its own is exactly that shape, and it is the most common inherited-read receiver there is. `ObjectNoKeys` means the object has NO own properties at all, so "the key is not an own property" — the precondition the prime needs — holds there MORE strongly than it does under `NotOwn`. The fix primes in that arm and then continues past the cache rather than through it, so the lookup at the top of the function is not repeated. ## B. The slot index ignored the class id `js_object_create` mints a FRESH synthetic class id on every call, so N receivers built by `Object.create(p)` have N different class ids and ONE identical shape. `entry_index` hashed only (shape, key), so all N landed in the same direct-mapped slot and evicted one another. An entry compares `recv_class_id`, so every read missed, re-walked and re-primed: inherited: hits=0 primes=6295655 (ten million reads, eight receivers) A full chain walk PLUS an entry write per read. The fix hashes the class id into the index, so the eight receivers occupy eight slots. ## Result | fixture | main-247 | this | node | |---|---|---|---| | 8 receivers via array | 1600.00 | **494.00** | 19.1 | | single keyless receiver | 1481.00 | **427.00** | 9.0 | `perf stat -x, -e instructions:u`, min of 3, fitted 500 k -> 5 M, two trees whose binaries `cmp` different, output identical to node on both. Counters after: `hits=50108984 primes=1` for the keyless receiver and `hits=57043013 primes=8` for the eight — exactly one prime per receiver, then hits. So this is not a repair to parity; it is the win #10834 was supposed to deliver, on the shapes it was missing entirely. ## Why the original measurement missed both #10834's fixtures give the receiver an own property and mutate it in the loop (`O.x = k`, added to keep the loop honest against node's optimiser). That one incidental detail puts the read on the `NotOwn` path, so defect A never fires, and uses a single receiver, so defect B never fires. On that shape the cache genuinely is a 43% win — 2246 off, 1264 on — which is why the reported numbers were real and generalised badly. ## Tests Two runtime tests, driven through `js_object_get_field_ic` — the real entry the compiled code calls — because both defects live in the miss handler's routing and a test that calls the cache's own functions cannot see either. Against this commit with the two source fixes reverted and the tests kept: a_receiver_with_no_own_keys_is_cached panicked: a keyless receiver never reached the prime, so the cache can never serve this shape and its probe is pure overhead on every read several_object_create_receivers_do_not_evict_each_other panicked: primed 64 times for 8 receivers: every read is re-priming, so the site pays a full chain walk AND an entry write per read `cargo test -p perry-runtime -- --test-threads=1`: 4162 passed, 0 failed.

Pushed a stronger version of The polarity is not the bug and I have not weakened it. #10842's walk refuses to record a hop that the Rather than relax the hit bound by one, the test now accounts for every read: That is stricter than what it replaced, not looser. The old Must-fail property preserved and sharpened. With just the two source fixes reverted and the tests kept:

#10860's prime call sits inside get_field_ic_miss_impl's existing unsafe block (ic_miss.rs:874), so its own unsafe is unused_unsafe. CI's warnings job runs -D warnings and would have rejected the tree.

Landed as v0.5.1628 — merge commit Force-merged at the owner's request, on a targeted audit plus this PR's own regression tests rather than a full train sweep, because the regression is live: 2442 instructions per read on a keyless three-level chain.

All three are in the landing commit. Audit notes. Thanks for catching this — #10834 was mine (train 246), and its measurement generalised badly for exactly the reason you identified: the fixtures gave the receiver an own property and mutated it in the loop, which put every read on the |

The counters say why, and they rule out the obvious guess. All four inherited
counters read ZERO on the single-receiver fixture — including
declines— sothe prime was never CALLED, not merely refused. Two independent defects:
A. The prime site is gated on the wrong miss reason

ObjectNoKeysand returns from anearlier arm, several hundred lines before the prime.
Object.create(p)withnothing of its own is exactly that shape, and it is the most common
inherited-read receiver there is.
ObjectNoKeysmeans the object has NO own properties at all, so "the key isnot an own property" — the precondition the prime needs — holds there MORE
strongly than it does under
NotOwn. The fix primes in that arm and thencontinues past the cache rather than through it, so the lookup at the top of
the function is not repeated.

into the index, so the eight receivers occupy eight slots.
Result
The shipped cost is much worse at depth than the one-level fixtures show.
A keyless three-level chain costs 2442 instructions per read on main today —
because the cache never primes, so every read re-walks all three hops, and the
per-hop cost that #10834's cache was supposed to remove is paid in full on
every one. That row is the strongest reason to take this in the next train
rather than the one after.

hits=50108984 primes=1for the keyless receiver andhits=57043013 primes=8for the eight — exactly one prime per receiver, thenhits. So this is not a repair to parity; it is the win #10834 was supposed to
deliver, on the shapes it was missing entirely.
Why the original measurement missed both
#10834's fixtures give the receiver an own property and mutate it in the loop
(
O.x = k, added to keep the loop honest against node's optimiser). That oneincidental detail puts the read on the
NotOwnpath, so defect A never fires,and uses a single receiver, so defect B never fires. On that shape the cache
genuinely is a 43% win — 2246 off, 1264 on — which is why the reported numbers
were real and generalised badly.
Tests
Two runtime tests, driven through
js_object_get_field_ic— the real entry thecompiled code calls — because both defects live in the miss handler's routing
and a test that calls the cache's own functions cannot see either.
