Subject: [PATCH] child_process,cluster: allow using V8 serialization API
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Add an `serialization` option that allows child process IPC to
use the (typically more powerful) V8 serialization API.

Fixes: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/10965

+## Advanced Serialization

+
+Child processes support a serialization mechanism for IPC that is based on the
+[serialization API of the `v8` module][v8.serdes], based on the
+[HTML structured clone algorithm][]. This is generally more powerful and
+supports more built-in JavaScript object types, such as `BigInt`, `Map`
+and `Set`, `ArrayBuffer` and `TypedArray`, `Buffer`, `Error`, `RegExp` etc.
+
+However, this format is not a full superset of JSON, and e.g. properties set on
+objects of such built-in types will not be passed on through the serialization
+step. Additionally, performance may not be equivalent to that of JSON, depending
+on the structure of the passed data.
+Therefore, this feature requires opting in by setting the
+`serialization` option to `'advanced'` when calling [`child_process.spawn()`][]
+or [`child_process.fork()`][].
