Root and reload concat values across read_concat_spreadable.
The lookup can invoke an accessor or Proxy trap and trigger moving GC. Root both result and value with RuntimeHandleScope, reload them after the lookup, recompute raw_addr, and then call js_array_push_f64. Add regression coverage that forces GC from the getter, along with typed-array, buffer, explicit Symbol.isConcatSpreadable, empty-receiver, multiple-argument, and [...typedArray] cases; run the runtime tests with RUST_TEST_THREADS=1.

This one is real, and it is not introduced here — so I would rather not fold it into a two-line behaviour fix.
read_concat_spreadable can run a getter or a Proxy trap, so a moving GC can happen inside it and result/value/raw_addr can all go stale across the call. That is exactly the rooting invariant CLAUDE.md describes.
But the pattern predates this PR. On origin/main, append_concat_arg already computes raw_addr before the lookup and then uses it afterwards in the is_array branch — append_spread_array(result, raw_addr as *const ArrayHeader). My change adds one more consumer of an address that was already being carried across that call; it does not create the hazard.
Fixing it properly means a RuntimeHandleScope around the lookup, reloading result and value, recomputing raw_addr, and — per your note — regression coverage that forces a GC from the getter. That is a focused GC-correctness change with its own test shape, and it should be reviewable on its own rather than arriving inside a concat correctness fix where a reviewer cannot tell which change is load-bearing for which symptom.
Flagging it for a follow-up rather than silently declining it. If you would rather it ride along here, say so and I will do it with the GC-forcing test.

@jdalton, agreed. The stale-pointer hazard predates this PR, and this change does not introduce it.
A focused follow-up should root and reload result and value across read_concat_spreadable, then recompute raw_addr. It should include a getter or Proxy trap that forces moving GC.
Would you like me to open a GitHub issue for that follow-up and assign it to you?

Learning: In `crates/perry-runtime/src/array/from_concat.rs::append_concat_arg`, `read_concat_spreadable(value)` can invoke accessors or Proxy traps and trigger moving GC. The existing code computes `raw_addr` before this lookup and uses `result`, `value`, and `raw_addr` afterward. A GC-correctness follow-up must use `crate::gc::RuntimeHandleScope` to root and reload `result` and `value`, recompute `raw_addr`, and add a GC-forcing regression test. This stale-pointer pattern predates pull request `#8124`.

Timestamp: 2026-08-01T09:55:28.576Z
Learning: In `crates/perry-runtime/src/gc/tests/copying/pointer_publish_7154.rs`, when a test constructs multiple GC-managed values before a call that can allocate or invoke GC, store every value needed by that call in `js_shadow_slot_set` slots and reload every argument from `js_shadow_slot_get` at the call site. Rooting only one value is insufficient because Rust evaluates call arguments left to right and a later argument expression can evacuate an earlier raw-pointer argument. For liveness tests of a specific edge, clear unrelated shadow roots to `TAG_UNDEFINED` before collection so reachability depends exclusively on the edge under test.

Learning: For perry-runtime shipped GC configurations, allocation-triggered `gc_check_trigger()` paths do not initiate a moving collection inside runtime allocation helpers. Moving collection can occur after deferred safepoint polling or through user-code re-entry. Therefore, perry-codegen temporary-root predicates must cover helpers that can execute user code, such as `js_object_copy_own_fields` through source accessors, rather than root solely because a sequence contains repeated property-store helper calls.

Learning: In PerryTS production GC, Rust stack locals are not conservatively scanned (SkipDisabled), and raw Rust pointer locals are neither GC roots nor reliable pins. In perry-runtime helpers, if you hold an object/value represented as a NaN-boxed `f64` and you then perform an allocating or user-code-invoking operation (e.g., `crate::value::js_get_property`) that may evacuate the underlying object, root the value using `crate::gc::RuntimeHandleScope` and reload it from the rewritten handle (e.g., via `get_nanbox_f64()`) before any subsequent reuse.

The nitpick is adopted in Re-verified after the change: the concat matrix still matches node 26.5.1 across |
…ropped `[1,2].concat(new Uint8Array([3,4]))` returned `[1,2]` where node gives `[1,2,Uint8Array(2)]`. The argument disappeared silently. Two defects stacked. A typed array is NOT concat-spreadable -- IsConcatSpreadable falls back to IsArray, which is false for one -- but js_array_is_array answers true here, so append_concat_arg took the spread branch rather than appending a single element. That spread ran through js_array_concat, whose clean_arr_ptr nulls tracked typed arrays, so it contributed nothing. Neither was even reached: dense_concat_array_source cleaned the argument first, read null as 'empty dense source', and returned from the bulk path, so the spec-shaped flow never ran. Its own typed-array rejection sits BELOW that clean and was unreachable for the values it names -- the same ordering bug as PerryTS#8090, and the same shape as the subclass hazard documented in the comment directly above it. The spread accumulator is deliberately untouched: [...typedArray] must keep materializing elements, and reordering there would have traded a dropped argument for a wrong element count. Verified against node 26.5.1 across u8/i32/f64 arguments, an empty typed array, a multi-argument mix, an empty receiver, plus controls for plain concat, nested arrays, strings, Set spread and typed-array spread.
array_receiver_addr only strips the NaN-box tag and neither registry helper validates what it is handed, so gate both lookups on crate::value::addr_class::is_plausible_heap_addr rather than open-coding a floor. Same canonical predicate the typed_array_receiver funnel uses. Re-verified after the change: the concat matrix still matches node 26.5.1 across u8/i32 arguments, an empty typed array, a multi-argument mix and an empty receiver, with plain-concat, nested-array and typed-array-spread controls unchanged.
…index `u8[sym] = 5` was dropped in silence. ECMA-262 §10.4.5.5 routes a key that is not a CanonicalNumericIndexString to OrdinarySet, and a Symbol is definitionally not one — but `typed_array_set_numeric_index` could not tell the two apart. A Symbol arrives as a NaN-boxed pointer, which as an f64 is a NaN, so it took the "canonical-invalid index" arm and returned `true`: write handled. The property never existed; the same code on a plain object, a plain array and a Buffer all worked. This is what made the `@@isConcatSpreadable === true` opt-in this PR documents unreachable by assignment. `concat` already honours the flag correctly — `Object.defineProperty` gives node's answer — but the assignment form could not install it. Ask the key-kind question before either typed-array arm claims the receiver, and make the numeric arm decline a key it cannot classify. Note on test shape: the obvious end-to-end unit test PASSES WITHOUT THE FIX, because a direct call to the polymorphic helper reaches a different sub-arm than the compiled path. Measured, not assumed. The end-to-end coverage is therefore a gap test byte-compared against node; the unit test asserts the contract change, and fails without it.

Rebased onto Your fix is correct. The comment in it was not — so I made the comment true instead of changing itValidating this batch, the concat behaviour matched node on every case except one, and it was the one your own code comment claims:
Measured, it did not: I nearly filed that as a defect in this PR. It isn't.
Root causeECMA-262 §10.4.5.5 routes a key that is not a CanonicalNumericIndexString to OrdinarySet, and a Symbol is definitionally not one. if !index.is_finite() || index.fract() != 0.0 || index < 0.0 || index > u32::MAX as f64 {
// "Canonical-invalid index": coerce for side effects, then drop.
return true; // <- claims the write as handled
}A Symbol arrives as a NaN-boxed pointer, which as an That is the same shape as #8090 / #8109 / #8119 / #8120 / #8141 — a receiver-specific fast path claiming the operation before the key-kind question is asked. Your PR is another instance of the family, so it's fitting that the last piece was too. The fix asks the key-kind question before either typed-array arm claims the receiver (gated on both registries — either alone still lets the other arm claim it), and makes the numeric arm decline a key it cannot classify rather than report it handled. A note on the test, because I got it wrong firstMy first regression test was the obvious one: allocate a typed array, store a symbol key through the polymorphic helper, read it back. It passed with the fix removed. A direct call to that helper reaches a different sub-arm than the compiled path does, so it cannot witness the bug — a green test proving nothing. So the end-to-end coverage is

Validate raw addresses before typed-array registry lookups.
The new Symbol route and the new owner helper classify raw after only a low-address check. Use crate::value::addr_class::is_plausible_heap_addr before each registry lookup. This prevents non-heap values outside the low-address band from entering typed-array registry and symbol-property routing.

As per coding guidelines, raw-pointer receiver classification must use crate::value::addr_class::is_plausible_heap_addr. Based on learnings, do not bypass this canonical predicate for typed receiver routing.

A typed array is not concat-spreadable:
IsConcatSpreadablefalls back toIsArray, andArray.isArray(new Uint8Array([1]))isfalse. Soconcatshould append it as one element.js_array_is_arrayanswers true for a typed array here, soappend_concat_argtook the spread branch instead. That spread runs throughjs_array_concat, whoseclean_arr_ptrnulls every tracked typed array — contributing nothing.dense_concat_array_source, which cleans the argument first:clean_arr_ptrreturns null, thesrc.is_null()arm reports "empty dense source", and the bulk path returns early. The spec-shaped flow never ran.That function already rejects typed arrays and registered buffers — the check simply sits below the clean, making it unreachable for exactly the values it names. Same ordering bug as #8090, and the same shape as the hazard documented in the comment immediately above it:
