30 // [SMDOC] Debugger builder API
32 // Helping embedding code build objects for Debugger
33 // -------------------------------------------------
35 // Some Debugger API features lean on the embedding application to construct
36 // their result values. For example, Debugger.Frame.prototype.scriptEntryReason
37 // calls hooks provided by the embedding to construct values explaining why it
38 // invoked JavaScript; if F is a frame called from a mouse click event handler,
39 // F.scriptEntryReason would return an object of the form:
41 // { eventType: "mousedown", event: <object> }
43 // where <object> is a Debugger.Object whose referent is the event being
44 // dispatched.
46 // However, Debugger implements a trust boundary. Debuggee code may be
47 // considered untrusted; debugger code needs to be protected from debuggee
48 // getters, setters, proxies, Object.watch watchpoints, and any other feature
49 // that might accidentally cause debugger code to set the debuggee running. The
50 // Debugger API tries to make it easy to write safe debugger code by only
51 // offering access to debuggee objects via Debugger.Object instances, which
52 // ensure that only those operations whose explicit purpose is to invoke
53 // debuggee code do so. But this protective membrane is only helpful if we
54 // interpose Debugger.Object instances in all the necessary spots.
56 // SpiderMonkey's compartment system also implements a trust boundary. The
57 // debuggee and debugger are always in different compartments. Inter-compartment
58 // work requires carefully tracking which compartment each JSObject or JS::Value
59 // belongs to, and ensuring that is is correctly wrapped for each operation.
61 // It seems precarious to expect the embedding's hooks to implement these trust
62 // boundaries. Instead, the JS::dbg::Builder API segregates the code which
63 // constructs trusted objects from that which deals with untrusted objects.
64 // Trusted objects have an entirely different C++ type, so code that improperly
65 // mixes trusted and untrusted objects is caught at compile time.
67 // In the structure shown above, there are two trusted objects, and one
68 // untrusted object:
70 // - The overall object, with the 'eventType' and 'event' properties, is a
71 // trusted object. We're going to return it to D.F.p.scriptEntryReason's
72 // caller, which will handle it directly.
74 // - The Debugger.Object instance appearing as the value of the 'event' property
75 // is a trusted object. It belongs to the same Debugger instance as the
76 // Debugger.Frame instance whose scriptEntryReason accessor was called, and
77 // presents a safe reflection-oriented API for inspecting its referent, which
78 // is:
80 // - The actual event object, an untrusted object, and the referent of the
81 // Debugger.Object above. (Content can do things like replacing accessors on
82 // Event.prototype.)
84 // Using JS::dbg::Builder, all objects and values the embedding deals with
85 // directly are considered untrusted, and are assumed to be debuggee values. The
86 // only way to construct trusted objects is to use Builder's own methods, which
87 // return a separate Object type. The only way to set a property on a trusted
88 // object is through that Object type. The actual trusted object is never
89 // exposed to the embedding.
91 // So, for example, the embedding might use code like the following to construct
92 // the object shown above, given a Builder passed to it by Debugger:
94 // bool
95 // MyScriptEntryReason::explain(JSContext* cx,
96 // Builder& builder,
97 // Builder::Object& result)
98 // {
99 // JSObject* eventObject = ... obtain debuggee event object somehow ...;
100 // if (!eventObject) {
101 // return false;
102 // }
103 // result = builder.newObject(cx);
104 // return result &&
105 // result.defineProperty(cx, "eventType",
106 // SafelyFetchType(eventObject)) &&
107 // result.defineProperty(cx, "event", eventObject);
108 // }
111 // Object::defineProperty also accepts an Object as the value to store on the
112 // property. By its type, we know that the value is trusted, so we set it
113 // directly as the property's value, without interposing a Debugger.Object
114 // wrapper. This allows the embedding to builted nested structures of trusted
115 // objects.
117 // The Builder and Builder::Object methods take care of doing whatever
118 // compartment switching and wrapping are necessary to construct the trusted
119 // values in the Debugger's compartment.
121 // The Object type is self-rooting. Construction, assignment, and destruction
122 // all properly root the referent object.
