# Berry Repository Deep Architecture Analysis
## Executive Summary
Berry is a sophisticated embedded scripting language with a register-based virtual machine, one-pass compiler, and mark-sweep garbage collector. The architecture prioritizes memory efficiency and performance for embedded systems while maintaining full dynamic language capabilities.
---
## 1. CORE VIRTUAL MACHINE ARCHITECTURE
### 1.1 Virtual Machine Structure (`be_vm.h`, `be_vm.c`)
```c
struct bvm {
bglobaldesc gbldesc; // Global variable management
bvalue *stack; // Register stack (not call stack!)
bvalue *stacktop; // Stack boundary
bupval *upvalist; // Open upvalue chain for closures
bstack callstack; // Function call frames
bstack exceptstack; // Exception handling stack
bcallframe *cf; // Current call frame
bvalue *reg; // Current function base register
bvalue *top; // Current function top register
binstruction *ip; // Instruction pointer
struct bgc gc; // Garbage collector state
// ... performance counters, hooks, etc.
};
```
**Key Architectural Decisions:**
- **Register-based VM**: Unlike stack-based VMs (Python, Java), Berry uses registers for better performance
- **Unified Value System**: All values use `bvalue` structure with type tagging
- **Integrated GC**: Garbage collector is tightly integrated with VM execution
### 1.2 Value System (`be_object.h`)
```c
typedef struct bvalue {
union bvaldata v; // Value data (int, real, pointer, etc.)
int type; // Type tag (BE_INT, BE_STRING, etc.)
} bvalue;
```
**Type Hierarchy:**
```
Basic Types (not GC'd):
├── BE_NIL (0) - null value
├── BE_INT (1) - integer numbers
├── BE_REAL (2) - floating point
├── BE_BOOL (3) - boolean values
├── BE_COMPTR (4) - common pointer
└── BE_FUNCTION (6) - function reference
GC Objects (BE_GCOBJECT = 16):
├── BE_STRING (16) - string objects
├── BE_CLASS (17) - class definitions
├── BE_INSTANCE (18) - class instances
├── BE_PROTO (19) - function prototypes
├── BE_LIST (20) - dynamic arrays
├── BE_MAP (21) - hash tables
├── BE_MODULE (22) - module objects
└── BE_COMOBJ (23) - common objects
```
**Performance Optimization:**
- Simple types (int, bool, real) stored by value → no allocation overhead
- Complex types stored by reference → enables sharing and GC
- Type checking via bit manipulation for speed
---
## 2. COMPILATION SYSTEM
### 2.1 Lexical Analysis (`be_lexer.c`, `be_lexer.h`)
**Token Processing Pipeline:**
```
Source Code → Lexer → Token Stream → Parser → AST → Code Generator → Bytecode
```
**Key Features:**
- **One-pass compilation**: No separate AST construction phase
- **Integrated string interning**: Strings deduplicated during lexing
- **Error recovery**: Continues parsing after syntax errors
### 2.2 Parser (`be_parser.c`, `be_parser.h`)
**Expression Descriptor System:**
```c
typedef struct {
union {
struct { /* for suffix expressions */
unsigned int idx:9; // RK index (register/constant)
unsigned int obj:9; // object RK index
unsigned int tt:5; // object type
} ss;
breal r; // for real constants
bint i; // for integer constants
bstring *s; // for string constants
int idx; // variable index
} v;
int t, f; // true/false jump patch lists
bbyte not; // logical NOT flag
bbyte type; // expression type (ETLOCAL, ETGLOBAL, etc.)
} bexpdesc;
```
**Expression Types:**
- `ETLOCAL`: Local variables (register-allocated)
- `ETGLOBAL`: Global variables (by index)
- `ETUPVAL`: Upvalues (closure variables)
- `ETMEMBER`: Object member access (`obj.member`)
- `ETINDEX`: Array/map indexing (`obj[key]`)
- `ETREG`: Temporary registers
### 2.3 Code Generation (`be_code.c`)
**Bytecode Instruction Format:**
```
32-bit instruction = [8-bit opcode][24-bit parameters]
Parameter formats:
- A, B, C: 8-bit register/constant indices
- Bx: 16-bit constant index
- sBx: 16-bit signed offset (jumps)
```
**Register Allocation Strategy:**
- **Local variables**: Allocated to specific registers for function lifetime
- **Temporaries**: Allocated/freed dynamically during expression evaluation
- **Constants**: Stored in constant table, accessed via K(index)
---
## 3. MEMORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
### 3.1 Garbage Collection (`be_gc.c`, `be_gc.h`)
**Mark-Sweep Algorithm:**
```c
struct bgc {
bgcobject *list; // All GC objects
bgcobject *gray; // Gray objects (mark phase)
bgcobject *fixed; // Fixed objects (never collected)
struct gc16_t* pool16; // Small object pool (≤16 bytes)
struct gc32_t* pool32; // Medium object pool (17-32 bytes)
size_t usage; // Current memory usage
size_t threshold; // GC trigger threshold
bbyte steprate; // Threshold growth rate
bbyte status; // GC state
};
```
**GC Object Header:**
```c
#define bcommon_header \
struct bgcobject *next; \ // Linked list pointer
bbyte type; \ // Object type
bbyte marked // GC mark bits
```
**Tri-color Marking:**
- **White**: Unreachable (will be collected)
- **Gray**: Reachable but children not yet marked
- **Dark**: Reachable and children marked
**Memory Pools:**
- **Small objects (≤16 bytes)**: Pooled allocation for strings, small objects
- **Medium objects (17-32 bytes)**: Separate pool for medium objects
- **Large objects**: Direct malloc/free
### 3.2 String Management (`be_string.c`, `be_string.h`)
**String Interning System:**
```c
struct bstringtable {
bstring **table; // Hash table of interned strings
int size; // Table size
int count; // Number of strings
};
```
**String Types:**
- **Short strings**: Interned in global table, shared across VM
- **Long strings**: Not interned, individual objects
- **Constant strings**: Embedded in bytecode, never collected
---
## 4. BUILT-IN LIBRARY ARCHITECTURE
### 4.1 JSON Library (`be_jsonlib.c`) - **SECURITY CRITICAL**
**Recent Security Enhancements:**
```c
// Safe Unicode string length calculation
static size_t json_strlen_safe(const char *str, size_t len) {
size_t result = 0;
const char *end = str + len;
while (str < end) {
if (*str == '\\' && str + 1 < end) {
if (str[1] == 'u') {
// Unicode escape: \uXXXX → 1-3 UTF-8 bytes
result += 3; // Conservative allocation
str += 6; // Skip \uXXXX
} else {
result += 1; // Other escapes → 1 byte
str += 2; // Skip \X
}
} else {
result += 1;
str += 1;
}
}
return result;
}
```
**Security Features:**
- **Buffer overflow protection**: Proper size calculation for Unicode sequences
- **Input validation**: Rejects malformed Unicode and control characters
- **Memory limits**: MAX_JSON_STRING_LEN prevents memory exhaustion
- **Comprehensive testing**: 10 security test functions covering edge cases
### 4.2 Native Function Interface
**Function Registration:**
```c
typedef int (*bntvfunc)(bvm *vm);
// Native function descriptor
typedef struct {
const char *name;
bntvfunc function;
} bnfuncinfo;
```
**Calling Convention:**
- Arguments passed via VM stack
- Return values via `be_return()` or `be_returnvalue()`
- Error handling via exceptions
---
## 5. ADVANCED LANGUAGE FEATURES
### 5.1 Closure Implementation (`be_func.c`)
**Upvalue Management:**
```c
typedef struct bupval {
bcommon_header;
bvalue *value; // Points to stack slot or own storage
union {
bvalue val; // Closed upvalue storage
struct bupval *next; // Open upvalue chain
} u;
} bupval;
```
**Closure Lifecycle:**
1. **Open upvalues**: Point to stack slots of parent function
2. **Closing**: When parent function returns, copy values to upvalue storage
3. **Shared upvalues**: Multiple closures can share same upvalue
### 5.2 Class System (`be_class.c`)
**Class Structure:**
```c
typedef struct bclass {
bcommon_header;
bstring *name; // Class name
bclass *super; // Superclass (single inheritance)
bmap *members; // Instance methods and variables
bmap *nvar; // Native variables
// ... method tables, constructors, etc.
} bclass;
```
**Method Resolution:**
1. Check instance methods
2. Check class methods
3. Check superclass (recursive)
4. Check native methods
### 5.3 Module System (`be_module.c`)
**Module Loading Pipeline:**
```
Module Name → Path Resolution → File Loading → Compilation → Caching → Execution
```
**Module Types:**
- **Script modules**: `.be` files compiled to bytecode
- **Bytecode modules**: Pre-compiled `.bec` files
- **Native modules**: Shared libraries (`.so`, `.dll`)
---
## 6. PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATIONS
### 6.1 Register-Based VM Benefits
**Comparison with Stack-Based VMs:**
```
Stack-based (Python): Register-based (Berry):

BINARY_ADD # Single instruction
STORE_FAST 2
```
**Advantages:**
- **Fewer instructions**: Direct register operations
- **Better locality**: Registers stay in CPU cache
- **Reduced stack manipulation**: No push/pop overhead
### 6.2 Constant Folding and Optimization
**Compile-time Optimizations:**
- **Constant folding**: `2 + 3``5` at compile time

### 6.3 Memory Pool Allocation
**Small Object Optimization:**
- **Pool allocation**: Reduces malloc/free overhead
- **Size classes**: 16-byte and 32-byte pools
- **Batch allocation**: Allocate multiple objects at once
---
## 7. SECURITY ARCHITECTURE
### 7.1 Memory Safety
**Buffer Overflow Protection:**
- **Bounds checking**: All array/string accesses validated
- **Size calculation**: Conservative memory allocation
- **Input validation**: Reject malformed input early
**Integer Overflow Protection:**
- **Size limits**: Maximum object sizes enforced
- **Wraparound detection**: Check for arithmetic overflow
- **Safe arithmetic**: Use checked operations where needed
### 7.2 Sandboxing Capabilities
**Resource Limits:**

### 📊 **Data Types** (10 tests)
Type system, operations, and data structure functionality
### 🏗️ **Object-Oriented** (10 tests)
Classes, inheritance, polymorphism, and object model
### 🔄 **Control Flow** (2 tests)
Loops, conditionals, and program flow control
### 📚 **Libraries** (7 tests)
Built-in modules and standard library functionality
### 🔒 **Security** (4 tests)
Vulnerability prevention and attack resistance
### ⚡ **Performance** (1 test)
Memory management and resource optimization
## Test Quality Assurance
- **Comprehensive Coverage** - Tests cover both common usage patterns and edge cases
- **Security Focus** - Dedicated tests for vulnerability prevention and attack resistance
- **Regression Prevention** - Tests prevent reintroduction of previously fixed bugs
- **Documentation** - Each test file includes synthetic comments explaining test purpose
- **Automated Execution** - Full test suite runs via `make test` command
## Contributing
When adding new tests:
1. Follow existing naming conventions
2. Include descriptive comments explaining test purpose
3. Cover both positive and negative test cases
4. Add security tests for any new parsing or input handling code
5. Update this README with new test descriptions
## Notes
- All tests pass successfully in the current Berry implementation
- Security tests include comprehensive JSON parsing vulnerability prevention
- Test files use `.be` extension (Berry script files)
- Tests are designed to run independently and can be executed individually
