Allowing the name to be passed to the ARGS_THIS macro will make it easier to share code with the Uint8Array implementation. PR-URL: #1825 Reviewed-By: Ben Noordhuis <info@bnoordhuis.nl>

With V8 4.4 removing the external array data API currently used by Buffer, the new implementation uses the Uint8Array to back Buffer. Buffers now have a maximum size of Smi::kMaxLength, as defined by V8. Which is ~2 GB on 64 bit and ~1 GB on 32 bit. The flag --use-old-buffer allows using the old Buffer implementation. This flag will be removed once V8 4.4 has landed. The two JS Buffer implementations have been split into two files for simplicity. Use getter to return expected .parent/.offset values for backwards compatibility. PR-URL: #1825 Reviewed-By: Ben Noordhuis <info@bnoordhuis.nl>

Instead of aborting in case of internal failure, return an empty Local<Object>. Using the MaybeLocal<T> API, users must check their return values. PR-URL: #1825 Reviewed-By: Ben Noordhuis <info@bnoordhuis.nl>

Address comments and deprecations left in source files. These changes include: * Remove the deprecated API. * Change Buffer::New() that did a copy of the data to Buffer::Copy() * Change Buffer::Use() to Buffer::New() PR-URL: #1825 Reviewed-By: Ben Noordhuis <info@bnoordhuis.nl>

New Buffer implementation allows greater than kMaxLength to be created. So instead check if the passed value is a valid Smi. PR-URL: #1825 Reviewed-By: Ben Noordhuis <info@bnoordhuis.nl>

The GlobalPropertyQueryCallback was changed in 2010 to return an integer instead of a boolean: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/v8-users/OOjHJrix-cU This integer communicates the property descriptors of the property, instead of just its presence or absence. However, the original contextify code was probably written before this change, and it was not updated when porting to Node.js. Credit to @smikes for the test and the original PR of #885.

By using the new SetHandler API instead of SetNamedPropertyHandler, we can intercept symbols now. This forces us to use Maybes and MaybeLocals more, since this new API does not have a non-maybe variant.

This allows users to provide a callback that handles potential errors resulting from a `socket.send` call. The original behavior of emitting the error event on the socket is preserved.

Modifies the dgram send() method to not emit errors when a DNS lookup fails if there is a callback. Given that the same UDP socket can be used to send messages to different hosts, the socket can be reused even if one of those send() fails. This slightly changes the behavior of a stable API, so that it behaves as users would expect to. This is based on nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#7738, which landed in 77266d7.

Fix Buffer.concat() so a copy is always returned regardless of the number of buffers that were passed. Previously if the array length was one then the same same buffer was returned. This created a special case for the user where there was a chance mutating the buffer returned by .concat() could mutate the buffer passed in. Also fixes an inconsistency when throwing if an array member was not a Buffer instance. For example: Buffer.concat([42]); // Returns 42 Buffer.concat([42, 1]); // Throws a TypeError Now .concat() will always throw if an array member is not a Buffer instance.

Currently, each cluster worker is assigned an ever increasing --debug-port argument. A long running cluster application that does not use the debugger can run into errors related to the port range. This commit mitigates the problem by only setting the debug port if the master is started with debug arguments, or the user explicitly defines debug arguments for the worker. This commit also adds a new debug port offset counter that is only incremented when a worker is created that utilizes debugging.

Upgrade the bundled V8 and update code in src/ and lib/ to the new API. Notable backwards incompatible changes are the removal of the smalloc module and dropped support for CESU-8 decoding. CESU-8 support can be brought back if necessary by doing UTF-8 decoding ourselves. This commit includes https://codereview.chromium.org/1192973004 to fix a build error on python 2.6 systems. The original commit log follows: Use optparse in js2c.py for python compatibility Without this change, V8 won't build on RHEL/CentOS 6 because the distro python is too old to know about the argparse module.
