This CL renames a number of things related to the V8 sandbox. Mainly, what used to be under V8_HEAP_SANDBOX is now under V8_SANDBOXED_EXTERNAL_POINTERS, while the previous V8 VirtualMemoryCage is now simply the V8 Sandbox: V8_VIRTUAL_MEMORY_CAGE => V8_SANDBOX V8_HEAP_SANDBOX => V8_SANDBOXED_EXTERNAL_POINTERS V8_CAGED_POINTERS => V8_SANDBOXED_POINTERS V8VirtualMemoryCage => Sandbox CagedPointer => SandboxedPointer fake cage => partially reserved sandbox src/security => src/sandbox This naming scheme should simplify things: the sandbox is now the large region of virtual address space inside which V8 mainly operates and which should be considered untrusted. Mechanisms like sandboxed pointers are then used to attempt to prevent escapes from the sandbox (i.e. corruption of memory outside of it). Furthermore, the new naming scheme avoids the confusion with the various other "cages" in V8, in particular, the VirtualMemoryCage class, by dropping that name entirely. Future sandbox features are developed under their own V8_SANDBOX_X flag, and will, once final, be merged into V8_SANDBOX. Current future features are sandboxed external pointers (using the external pointer table), and sandboxed pointers (pointers guaranteed to point into the sandbox, e.g. because they are encoded as offsets). This CL then also introduces a new build flag, v8_enable_sandbox_future, which enables all future features.
