# Summary of the JS::Value (also known as jsval) type:
#
# Viewed abstractly, JS::Value is a 64-bit discriminated union, with
# JSString *, JSObject *, IEEE 64-bit floating-point, and 32-bit integer
# branches (and a few others). (It is not actually a C++ union;
# 'discriminated union' just describes the overall effect.) Note that
# JS::Value is always 64 bits long, even on 32-bit architectures.
#
# The ECMAScript standard specifies that ECMAScript numbers are IEEE 64-bit
# floating-point values. A JS::Value can represent any JavaScript number
# value directly, without referring to additional storage, or represent an
# object, string, or other ECMAScript value, and remember which type it is.
# This may seem surprising: how can a 64-bit type hold all the 64-bit IEEE
# values, and still distinguish them from objects, strings, and so on,
# which have 64-bit addresses?
#
# This is possible for two reasons:
#
# - First, ECMAScript implementations aren't required to distinguish all
# the values the IEEE 64-bit format can represent. The IEEE format
# specifies many bitstrings representing NaN values, while ECMAScript
# requires only a single NaN value. This means we can use one IEEE NaN to
# represent ECMAScript's NaN, and use all the other IEEE NaNs to
# represent the other ECMAScript values.
#
# (IEEE says that any floating-point value whose 11-bit exponent field is
# 0x7ff (all ones) and whose 52-bit fraction field is non-zero is a NaN.
# So as long as we ensure the fraction field is non-zero, and save a NaN
# for ECMAScript, we have 2^52 values to play with.)
#
# - Second, on the only 64-bit architecture we support, x86_64, only the
# lower 48 bits of an address are significant. The upper sixteen bits are
# required to be the sign-extension of bit 48. Furthermore, user code
# always runs in "positive addresses": those in which bit 48 is zero. So
# we only actually need 47 bits to store all possible object or string
# addresses, even on 64-bit platforms.
#
# With a 52-bit fraction field, and 47 bits needed for the 'payload', we
# have up to five bits left to store a 'tag' value, to indicate which
# branch of our discriminated union is live.
#
# Thus, we define JS::Value representations in terms of the IEEE 64-bit
# floating-point format:
#
# - Any bitstring that IEEE calls a number or an infinity represents that
# ECMAScript number.
#
# - Any bitstring that IEEE calls a NaN represents either an ECMAScript NaN
# or a non-number ECMAScript value, as determined by a tag field stored
# towards the most significant end of the fraction field (exactly where
# depends on the address size). If the tag field indicates that this
# JS::Value is an object, the fraction field's least significant end
# holds the address of a JSObject; if a string, the address of a
# JSString; and so on.
#
# On the only 64-bit platform we support, x86_64, only the lower 48 bits of
# an address are significant, and only those values whose top bit is zero
# are used for user-space addresses. This means that x86_64 addresses are
# effectively 47 bits long, and thus fit nicely in the available portion of
# the fraction field.
#
#
# In detail:
#
# - jsval (Value.h) is a typedef for JS::Value.
#
# - JS::Value (Value.h) is a class with a lot of methods and a single data
# member, of type jsval_layout.
#
# - jsval_layout (Value.h) is a helper type for picking apart values. This
# is always 64 bits long, with a variant for each address size (32 bits
# or 64 bits) and endianness (little- or big-endian).
#
# jsval_layout is a union with 'asBits', 'asDouble', and 'asPtr'
# branches, and an 's' branch, which is a struct that tries to break out
# the bitfields a little for the non-double types. On 64-bit machines,
# jsval_layout also has an 'asUIntPtr' branch.
#
# On 32-bit platforms, the 's' structure has a 'tag' member at the
# exponent end of the 's' struct, and a 'payload' union at the mantissa
# end. The 'payload' union's branches are things like JSString *,
# JSObject *, and so on: the natural representations of the tags.
#
# On 64-bit platforms, the payload is 47 bits long; since C++ doesn't let
# us declare bitfields that hold unions, we can't break it down so
# neatly. In this case, we apply bit-shifting tricks to the 'asBits'
# branch of the union to extract the tag.
