    [wasm] Remove the state from tasks of an AsyncCompileJob · adad7e6e
    Andreas Haas authored
    There exists a hidden assumption in V8 that neither foreground nor
    background tasks own any memory. For asynchronous WebAssembly
    compilation this assumption was wrong, which causes crashes when V8 shut
    down before the compilation finished.
    
    With this CL I change the way asynchrous compilation happens. In the
    existing implementation each compilation stage provided its own task
    which could be spawned either in foreground or background. With this CL
    each stage only provides a state, and a generic CompileTask executes on
    that state. There exists exactly one state at a time.
    
    To have exactly one state at a time I combined the stages
    ExecuteCompilationUnits and FinishCompilationUnits to a single stage. In
    addition I removed the WaitForBackgroundTasks stage and added a
    CancelableTaskManager to the AsyncCompileJob instead to do the waiting.
