The guarded element read for a dynamically-typed receiver emitted ~50 basic
blocks and ~343 pre-RS4GC instructions per `a[i]`: eight typed-array
element-kind arms behind a seven-block kind dispatch, the whole shape-carried
Array-subclass IC tower (identity, dense-tail family token, spilled `length`,
spilled elements), the elements-backed subclass probe, the lazy-JSON-array
probe, four runtime calls and six `js_number_coerce` arms. On
`prettier/plugins/flow.mjs` that tower is 55% of all emitted IR across 10,778
sites, for a program that neither constructs a typed array nor subclasses
`Array`.
The site now keeps four guarded arms and one out-of-line call, 20 blocks and
173 instructions:
* the receiver tag / heap-band and canonical-index checks plus the managed
`GcHeader` load, and the packed ordinary `GC_TYPE_ARRAY` arm — byte
identical to before;
* the typed-array arm, collapsed onto the four ELEMENT WIDTHS the header
already stores instead of the nine element kinds. `tav.w4` resolves
`Int32Array`/`Uint32Array`/`Float32Array` from ONE load with two `select`s;
* the elements-backed Array-subclass probe (`ObjectMeta.elements`) — byte
identical;
* `js_packed_arraylike_index_get`, the same call the old `arrlike.ic.miss`
block made, as the single exit for everything else.
Every removed arm was an acceleration of a decision that helper already makes,
and it is still handed the site's own cache slot, so neither the answer nor the
primed cache words move. The one arm it did NOT already make, PerryTS#10114's
lazy-JSON-array probe, moved into the helper — a `JSON.parse` result still
skips the `js_array_get_f64` -> `lazy_get` chain without every read site
paying three blocks for the proof.
The shape-carried IC tower (15 of the 50 blocks) is removable because it cannot
hit in the shipped configuration: its hit needs a primed layout cache, and
`build_dense_layout` is reached only when `elements_of(obj)` is null, which the
default elements store makes false for every Array subclass.
Measured on the OpenCode corpus (5 interleaved rounds, quiet host):
prettier-flow `.text` -12.67% (38,113,543 -> 33,284,398), babel-parser -0.68%,
babel-types-validators unchanged; `.perry_gcmap` within +-0.14%; O0-fallback
units unchanged. No workload regressed: every shared row is within -0.43% ..
+0.07% retired instructions and -1.1% .. +0.2% peak RSS, while a dynamically

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Use an atomic load for PERRY_TA_VIEW_GUARD.
LlBlock::load emits a plain LLVM load. PERRY_TA_VIEW_GUARD is an AtomicU64 updated with relaxed atomic operations, and worker threads can run concurrently. The plain load therefore does not provide the required atomic access and can race with guard updates. Use the existing atomic helper:
let view_guard = blk.load_atomic_monotonic(I64, "`@PERRY_TA_VIEW_GUARD`", 8);🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Add Float16 guard coverage and remove the duplicate call.
KIND_FLOAT16 is supported, but this test only constructs BigInt kinds. The codegen test at crates/perry-codegen/src/expr/index_get_claim_tests.rs:593-615 checks for an exit call, not that tav.kind_guard rejects kind 11 with kind <= 8. Add a regression-sensitive assertion for that guard. Do not add Float16 to the BigInt-only is_bigint() loop.
Both calls invoke js_packed_arraylike_index_get with identical arguments. They therefore exercise the same exit path. Rename the test to describe BigInt coverage and remove the "dispatcher" call and assertion.

Problem
The inline guarded element read for a dynamically typed receiver (
expr/index_get/inline_dyn_typed_array.rs) emits ~51 basic blocks and ~345 pre-RS4GC IR instructions pera[i]site: a typed-array-view path with eight element-kind arms and seven kind-dispatch blocks, the shape-carried Array-subclass IC (shape / identity / exact / family token / bounds / length-spill / spill), the elements-backed probe, the lazy-JSON probe, and two runtime call sites. On prettier/plugins/flow.mjs that tower is 55 % of all IR (10,778 sites); prettier never touches a typed array, yet every site carries the eight-kind ladder.Change
Keep inline, byte-identical: the receiver header/brand checks, the packed dense-Array arm (bounds + element load, holes), and the elements-backed array-like probe — the tier that actually fires for
class X extends Arrayin the shipped configuration. Move out of line: the shape-carried subclass IC tower (its hit needs a primed layout cache whose only writer is unreachable whilearray_subclass_elements_enabled()is on, so those 15 blocks per site never fired), the lazy-JSON probe (folded intojs_packed_arraylike_index_get, which was already the miss target), and the length-spill / spill paths. The typed-array ladder collapses from eight element kinds onto the four element widths the header already stores (w8,w4with signedness and float form resolved by twoselects from one load,w2,w1), and the brand test is oneicmpon the already-loaded tag as #10118 made it.No new runtime symbol: a dedicated
…_slowentry with a coercion flag was built, measured, and deleted — its flag setup cost every miss +0.1–0.4 % instructions on ordinary workloads. The single exit is the existing dispatcher; a number context wraps it injs_number_coerceexactly as before.Per site: 51 → 21 blocks, 345 → 173 IR instructions, 2 → 1 runtime calls. The kept arms are instruction-for-instruction identical (registers normalised), pinned by a codegen test that asserts the exact ordered block list, one dispatcher call,
tav.w4= 1 load + 2 selects, and that no inline arm touches the site's cache slot.Correctness fix found during the rebase:
js_lazy_array_index_proberequires a live, unforwardedGC_TYPE_LAZY_ARRAYpointer, a proof the deleted inline tier supplied from its header check. Folding it into the dispatcher moved the obligation without the proof, and #10098 makes lazy arrays movable; the dispatcher now testsGC_FLAG_FORWARDEDand lets a forwarded receiver fall through tojs_array_get_f64, whose pointer cleaning resolves the forward. Nothing between the header read and the probe can collect, so no scope is needed.New runtime tests (
array/index_get_exit_tests.rs, 10): every element kind at three indices (a wrong-width load cannot pass), lane-width isolation, BigInt/Float16 tag preservation, a raised view guard, ordinary arrays and holes, lazy JSON arrays, an Array subclass whose cache actually primes, a spilled-lengthsubclass, plain and non-pointer receivers, boxed-element ToNumber — each a differential againstjs_dyn_index_get/js_typed_array_geton value and primed cache words.Evidence (x86-64, perrymaster, base = origin/main @ 64f5249, which already carries #10186 / #10189 / #10196)
