fix(worker): isolate and wrapper lifetime fixes around startup and teardown - #478

…ardown A throwing onclose run from the entry script read the worker isolate before it was published and crashed. Terminate() used the worker isolate with no synchronization against the worker thread deleting its runtime. EndWrapperLifetime kept using the wrapper after dispatching nsworkerended, whose listeners can shut the runtime down and delete it.

GetWorkerIsolate()returnsworkerIsolate_withoutworkerIsolateMutex_.BackgroundLooper()withdraws the pointer under that mutex before deleting the worker runtime. Because the mutex is private, a caller cannot hold it for the full use of the returnedv8::Isolate*. A cross-thread caller can therefore use the isolate after teardown.The repository has no callers for this getter. Remove it. If a caller is required, replace it with an operation that holds
workerIsolateMutex_for the complete isolate use.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

@coderabbitai, pushed a second commit. The While at it I looked at the other piece of worker state the parent thread touches during teardown, the message queue. |

…eardown Push() and Signal() read the run loop source and run loop with no lock while Terminate(), on another thread, invalidates and releases the source. They now go through the mutex Terminate() holds, and the worker thread terminates its queue before it leaves, since the queue borrows that thread's run loop. Also removes the unused GetWorkerIsolate() getter, which handed out the isolate without the mutex that now guards it.

A worker whose entry script sets a throwing
oncloseand then callsclose()crashes the app:CloseWorkerCallbackreports the error throughCallOnErrorHandlers, which readworkerIsolate_. That field is only published once the worker's startup function returns, so during the entry it is still null andCaches::Get(nullptr)faults.CallOnErrorHandlersandReportEntryEvaluationRejectionnow take the isolate from their caller, which is running on it. The new spec crashes the TestRunner without the fix.Two more lifetime problems in the same file, found while reading how that field is used. Neither has a spec: one needs a preempted thread, the other needs the runtime shut down mid-suite.
Terminate()readworkerIsolate_on the parent thread and then calledRequestTermination()andTerminateExecution()on it with nothing holding the isolate alive. If the worker has just published the isolate and seesisTerminating_before entering its run loop, it goes straight to deleting its runtime while the parent may still be between the read and the use. The worker now publishes and withdraws the pointer under a mutex andTerminate()holds it across the use. Only the winner of theisTerminating_exchange takes it, and the worker holds it just for the two assignments, so the heap-limit callback callingTerminate()from inside a GC on the worker thread cannot deadlock on it. Once the worker is insideCFRunLoopRunthe old code was already safe, since the loop only stops throughqueue_.Terminate(), which runs after the isolate use.EndWrapperLifetime()dispatchednsworkerendedand then calledthis->UnrootWorkerObject(). A listener that callsshutdownRuntime(supported from inside a JS callback, seeDisposeIsolateWhenPossible) runs~Runtimeon the same thread, and its disposal walk deletes this wrapper, because the worker has already publishedisDisposed_by the time the notification is posted. It now reads what the dispatch needs up front and checks theselfRef_token again before touchingthis.Summary by CodeRabbit
