This reverts commit 29c1eab9. Reason for revert: Causes Blink test failures: https://ci.chromium.org/p/v8/builders/ci/V8%20Blink%20Linux/4222 Original change's description: > [builtins] Clean up the use of class_name / ES5 [[Class]] > > Before ES2015, the ES spec had a [[Class]] internal slot for all > objects, which Object.prototype.toString() would use to figure the > returned string. Post-ES2015, the [[Class]] slot was removed in spec for > all objects, with the @@toStringTag well-known symbol the proper way to > change Object.prototype.toString() output. > > At the time, spec-identical handling without the use of [[Class]] was > implemented in V8 for all objects other than API objects, where issues > with the Web IDL spec [1] prevented Blink, and hence V8, to totally > migrate to @@toStringTag. However, since 2016 [2] Blink has been setting > @@toStringTag on API class prototypes to manage the > Object.prototype.toString() output, so the legacy [[Class]] handling in > V8 has not been necessary for the past couple of years. > > This CL removes the remaining legacy [[Class]] handling in > Object.prototype.toString(), JSReceiver::class_name(), and > GetConstructorName(). However, it does not remove the class_name field > in FunctionTemplateInfo, as it is still used for the `name` property of > created functions. > > This CL also cleans up other places in the codebase that still reference > [[Class]]. > > This change should have minimal impact on web-compatibility. For the > change to be observable, a script must do one of the following: > > 1. delete APIConstructor.prototype[Symbol.toStringTag]; > 2. Object.setPrototypeOf(apiObject, somethingElse); > > Before this CL, these changes will not change the apiObject.toString() > output. But after this CL, they will make apiObject.toString() show > "[object Object]" (in the first case) or the @@toStringTag of the other > prototype (in the latter case). > > However, both are deemed unlikely. @@toStringTag is not well-known > feature of JavaScript, nor does it get tampered much on API > constructors. In the second case, setting the prototype of an API object > would effectly render the object useless, as all its methods (including > property getters/setters) would no longer be accessible. > > Currently, @@toStringTag-based API object branding is not yet > implemented by other browsers. This V8 bug in particular has been an > impediment to standardizing toString behavior. Fixing this bug will > unblock [3] and lead to a better Web IDL spec, and better toString() > compatibility for all. > > [1]: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=28244 > [2]: https://crrev.com/909c0d7d5a53c8526ded351683c65ea7d17531d4 > [3]: https://github.com/heycam/webidl/pull/357 > > Bug: chromium:793406 > Cq-Include-Trybots: luci.chromium.try:linux-rel > Change-Id: Iceded24e37afa2646ec385d5018909f55b177f93 > Reviewed-on: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/v8/v8/+/2146996 > Commit-Queue: Timothy Gu <timothygu@chromium.org> > Reviewed-by: Toon Verwaest <verwaest@chromium.org> > Cr-Commit-Position: refs/heads/master@{#67327} TBR=verwaest@chromium.org,timothygu@chromium.org Change-Id: I678d2ffc1064b1d1ddb62024cc23c6c41b216ef4 No-Presubmit: true No-Tree-Checks: true No-Try: true Bug: chromium:793406 Cq-Include-Trybots: luci.chromium.try:linux-rel Reviewed-on: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/v8/v8/+/2163956Reviewed-by: Bill Budge <bbudge@chromium.org> Commit-Queue: Bill Budge <bbudge@chromium.org> Cr-Commit-Position: refs/heads/master@{#67349}
