// PER_ISOLATE_* macros: We have a lot of per-isolate properties

//
// In each macro, `V` is expected to be the name of a macro or function which
// accepts the number of arguments provided in each tuple in the macro body,
// typically two. The named function will be invoked against each tuple.
//
// Make sure that any macro V defined for use with the PER_ISOLATE_* macros is
// undefined again after use.

// Private symbols are per-isolate primitives but Environment proxies them
// for the sake of convenience. Strings should be ASCII-only and have a
// "node:" prefix to avoid name clashes with third-party code.
