Every `new Worker()` runs the whole internal bootstrap (realm, node, web
exposure, thread and process-state switches) in its fresh isolate,
compiling ~80 builtins with the code cache; only the main thread
deserializes its principal context from the built-in snapshot. That
bootstrap is about half of a worker's cold start.
The bootstrapped principal context in the snapshot is nearly
thread-neutral: the worker-side switch scripts (is_not_main_thread,
does_not_own_process_state) are written as overrides of the main-thread
ones, and the per-thread values of the `worker` binding were the only
thread-specific data baked into the context. Let a worker deserialize
that same context and EnvSerializeInfo and apply the two worker-side
switches on top:
- worker binding: threadId, threadName, isMainThread, isInternalThread,
ownsProcessState and resourceLimits become lazy properties of the
per-isolate template, computed from the Environment on first read.
- CreateEnvironment(): when a worker (its IsolateData has a Worker)
passes an empty context, deserialize kNodeMainContextIndex and run
internal/bootstrap/switches/is_not_main_thread and, unless the worker
owns process state, does_not_own_process_state after
InitializeMainContext().
- Worker::Run(): take that path when the embedded built-in snapshot is
in use (not an embedder's or a --snapshot-blob one, which has run
application code), browser globals are not disabled and
--no-worker-snapshot was not given; otherwise bootstrap as before.
- is_not_main_thread.js: also delete _debugPause and the profiler idle
notifier helpers that is_main_thread.js installs.
- pre_execution: run the snapshot's deserialize callbacks (Buffer pool,
default resolver, cached cwd) on worker threads too, now that a worker
can come from a snapshot.
- --[no-]worker-snapshot per-isolate option, documented.
Sequential new Worker() -> 'online' -> terminate goes from ~20.9 ms to
~10.3 ms per worker on x64 Linux; --no-worker-snapshot restores the old
number.

Contexts that are not deserialized from the built-in snapshot -- worker
threads, and the main context of embedders that create their own
isolate or of `node --no-node-snapshot` -- compile (with the code cache
at best) every builtin the bootstrap touches, so each eagerly required
builtin is startup time (~0.15-0.4 ms apiece). A number of them are only
required eagerly so that they end up in the snapshot, or for features
the bootstrap path never uses.
Load lazily what those paths do not need:
- is_main_thread.js: preload util, url, the ESM loader (translators,
resolver, module_job/map, source maps, node:module, vm modules, mime,
data_url, the TypeScript stripper), internal/blob and
internal/dns/utils only while building a snapshot; they load on first
use otherwise.
- fs: internal/blob (+ internal/encoding and its tables) is only used
by fs.openAsBlob().
- internal/url: internal/data_url (+ internal/mime) is only used by the
Buffer-returning file URL helpers.
- internal/process/execution, the CommonJS loader, esm/translators and
esm/load: the TypeScript stripper and data: URL helpers are only
needed for TypeScript sources / data: URLs.
- pre_execution: internal/dns/utils (+ internal/net) is only needed up
front to validate an explicit --dns-result-order or to register the
resolver's snapshot serializer; the default order becomes the
variable's initializer.
- internal/worker: event_loop_utilization and error_serdes are only
needed once a sub-worker's ELU is read or it reports an error.
- worker_threads: `locks` is defined lazily, like util's lazy exports.
Main-thread startup with the snapshot is unchanged (the same modules
are preloaded into it; the bootstrap-modules test lists are adjusted).
A bare worker compiles 95 -> 83 builtins (cold start -5%); without the
snapshot an empty CommonJS entry point compiles 76 -> 59 builtins and an
empty ES module entry point 76 -> 69.

Decided to take a short break from the work on QUIC
to implement a DTLS API. Very experimental at this
point but the basic API is there (inspired by the
QUIC API work).
The implementation is based on OpenSSL's built-in
DTLS support and no other dependencies are required.
DTLS is a datagram-based version of TLS that is used
for things like WebRTC and CoAP. It provides similar
security guarantees as TLS but is designed to work over
UDP instead of TCP.
This shouldn't be considered ready for production
but it is a good starting point for experimentation
and feedback.
```bash
./configure --experimental-dtls
make -j{nproc}
./node --experimental-dtls my-dtls-app.js

Implement QuotaExceededError as a DOMException-derived interface per the
WebIDL specification update.
QuotaExceededError is now a proper constructor exposed as a global
[Exposed=*] interface that extends DOMException with optional `quota`
and `requested` attributes (both nullable doubles, defaulting to null).
The constructor validates that quota and requested are finite,
non-negative, and that requested is not less than quota when both are
provided.
QuotaExceededError is [Serializable] and supports structuredClone,
preserving the quota and requested values across the serialization
boundary.
Callers updated:
- crypto.getRandomValues() now throws a QuotaExceededError instance
- WebStorage (C++) now constructs QuotaExceededError directly

Replace the domain-based error handling with AsyncLocalStorage and
setUncaughtExceptionCaptureCallback. This removes the REPL's dependency
on the deprecated domain module while preserving all existing behavior:
- Synchronous errors during eval are caught and displayed
- Async errors (setTimeout, promises, etc.) are caught via the
uncaught exception capture callback
- Top-level await errors are caught and displayed
- The REPL continues operating after errors
- Multiple REPL instances can coexist with errors routed correctly
Changes:
- Use AsyncLocalStorage to track which REPL instance owns an async
context, replacing domain's automatic async tracking
- Add setupExceptionCapture() to install
setUncaughtExceptionCaptureCallback for catching async errors and
routing them to the correct REPL
- Extract error handling logic into REPLServer.prototype._handleError()
- Wrap eval execution in replContext.run() for async context tracking
- Update newListener protection to check AsyncLocalStorage context
- Throw ERR_INVALID_ARG_VALUE if options.domain is passed

`v8::Module::IsGraphAsync()` traverses the dependencies to find if they
contain TLA each time. `ModuleWrap.hasAsyncGraph` caches the result
and exposes the property to JS land so that the presence of the property
`module.hasAsyncGraph` can be consistent.
This also allows C++ access of cached `hasAsyncGraph`.
This merges the `intantiateSync`/`instantiate` and
`getNamespaceSync`/`getNamespace` as they are always sync.

Split `module.link(linker)` into two synchronous step
`sourceTextModule.linkRequests()` and
`sourceTextModule.instantiate()`. This allows creating vm modules and
resolving the dependencies in a complete synchronous procedure.
This also makes `syntheticModule.link()` redundant. The link step for a
SyntheticModule is no-op and is already taken care in the constructor
by initializing the binding slots with the given export names.

Skipping source maps in `node_modules` improves the general

skip source maps in `node_modules` if it is needed. This moves
all source maps related API to `node:module` and this a step to

to replace the use of `ref()` and `unref()` methods defined directly
on individual API objects. The existing `ref()` and `unref()` methods
will be marked as legacy and won't be removed but new APIs should use
`process.ref()` and `process.unref()` instead.
