Environments created from the built-in snapshot get the builtins' code cache from that snapshot. An embedder that bootstraps an Environment from scratch (its own isolate and context, no EmbedderSnapshotData) has no way to provide one: every builtin the bootstrap touches is compiled from source in every such process, and each of them then serializes a fresh cache (SaveCodeCache) that only a later worker thread would ever consume. Add node::EmbedderBuiltinCodeCache for that case. Its entries pair a builtin id with a v8::ScriptCompiler::CachedData; Generate(context) compiles every builtin in a context of the right kind of isolate and returns them for a build step to embed, and SetBuiltinCodeCache(isolate_data, cache) attaches them to an IsolateData, next to where a snapshot's code cache lives, so that every Environment created from it afterwards starts with them. The setter runs CachedData::CompatibilityCheck() against the isolate first and returns the result, leaving the IsolateData untouched for a cache made with another V8 version, flag set or read-only snapshot. Entries from a snapshot still merge with it (RefreshCodeCache() now merges instead of assuming a single call). CreateEnvironment() plus LoadEnvironment() of an empty script goes from about 38 ms to 13 ms with a cache attached. ProcessInitializationFlags::kNoHarvestBuiltinCodeCache stops serializing caches for builtins compiled without one, for embedders that supply their own or never create workers. The default is unchanged because worker threads copy the harvested cache. A cctest generates a cache, attaches it, checks that a new Environment's bootstrap compiles from it and that a corrupted cache is refused; embedtest gains --no-harvest-builtin-code-cache for a test that a worker does or does not find a harvested cache depending on the flag.

Tests for networking related modules may also be present in other directories, but those tests do not make outbound connections. ↩︎
-
All tests inside of this directory are expected to fail. If a test doesn't fail on certain platforms, those should be skipped via
known_issues.status. ↩︎ -
The tests are for the logic in
lib/internal/main/prof_process.jsandlib/internal/v8_prof_polyfill.js. The tests confirm that the profile processor packages the correct set of scripts from V8 and introduces the correct platform specific logic. ↩︎
