We’re not tracking the uv_async_t anymore, right? Maybe we should add something like tracker->TrackInlineField() that allows us to keep track of MemoryRetainers that are direct members of the class…

you mean - the one represented by thread_exit_async_ ? that is replaced withAsyncRequest objects that creates uv_async_t objects, and tracks through the interface method. the async_ field in AsyncRequest is still a pointer, direct member of neither AsyncRequest nor Worker.

Neither *thread_stopper_.async_ nor *on_thread_finished_.async_ are tracked, yes, because we don’t inform the tracker about the existence of the AsyncRequest fields.

Also, side note: I’m just noticing that we have the IsolateData and Environment fields listed here as well, which I’m not sure makes sense given that they are no longer directly allocated by this object…

sorry, I don't understand. *thread_stopper_.async and *on_thread_finished_.async_ are not tracked through the tracker instance or of worker, but those are tracked through the tracker instance of AsyncRequest object (line 98):

void AsyncRequest::MemoryInfo(MemoryTracker* tracker) const {
  Mutex::ScopedLock lock(mutex_);
  if (async_ != nullptr) tracker->TrackField("async_request", *async_);
}

Isn't it enough? I hope we don't need multiple trackers for the same allocation?

For the IsolateData and Environment: I just removed those from being actively tracked by the worker and pushed in under this PR itself.

@gireeshpunathil The problem is that the memory tracker doesn’t know that it should call AsyncRequest::MemoryInfo. Currently, the way to inform it would be adding tracker->TrackField("thread_stopper_", &thread_stopper_);, but then we would end up tracking the memory for the AsyncRequest itself twice.

@gireeshpunathil Should we change this PR to use TrackInlineField now?

@addaleax - yes. Though I knew this depend on #26161 for a moment I forgot about that!
