Previously it would bypass the `FL_ABLE` check, but
since shapes introduction, it started having a different
behavior than `OBJ_FREEZE`, as it would onyl set the `FL_FREEZE`
flag, but not update the shape.
I have no indication of this causing a bug yet, but it seems
like a trap waiting to happen.
[Feature #20205]
As a path toward enabling frozen string literals by default in the future,
this commit introduce "chilled strings". From a user perspective chilled
strings pretend to be frozen, but on the first attempt to mutate them,
they lose their frozen status and emit a warning rather than to raise a
`FrozenError`.
Implementation wise, `rb_compile_option_struct.frozen_string_literal` is
no longer a boolean but a tri-state of `enabled/disabled/unset`.
When code is compiled with frozen string literals neither explictly enabled
or disabled, string literals are compiled with a new `putchilledstring`
instruction. This instruction is identical to `putstring` except it marks
the String with the `STR_CHILLED (FL_USER3)` and `FL_FREEZE` flags.
Chilled strings have the `FL_FREEZE` flag as to minimize the need to check
for chilled strings across the codebase, and to improve compatibility with
C extensions.
Notes:
- `String#freeze`: clears the chilled flag.
- `String#-@`: acts as if the string was mutable.
- `String#+@`: acts as if the string was mutable.
- `String#clone`: copies the chilled flag.

This `st_table` is used to both mark and pin classes
defined from the C API. But `vm->mark_object_ary` already
does both much more efficiently.
Currently a Ruby process starts with 252 rooted classes,
which uses `7224B` in an `st_table` or `2016B` in an `RArray`.
So a baseline of 5kB saved, but since `mark_object_ary` is
preallocated with `1024` slots but only use `405` of them,
it's a net `7kB` save.
`vm->mark_object_ary` is also being refactored.
Prior to this changes, `mark_object_ary` was a regular `RArray`, but
since this allows for references to be moved, it was marked a second
time from `rb_vm_mark()` to pin these objects.
This has the detrimental effect of marking these references on every
minors even though it's a mostly append only list.
But using a custom TypedData we can save from having to mark
all the references on minor GC runs.
Addtionally, immediate values are now ignored and not appended
to `vm->mark_object_ary` as it's just wasted space.
This frees FL_USER0 on both T_MODULE and T_CLASS.
Note: prior to this, FL_SINGLETON was never set on T_MODULE,
so checking for `FL_SINGLETON` without first checking that
`FL_TYPE` was `T_CLASS` was valid. That's no longer the case.
[Bug #20311]
`rb_define_class_under` assumes it's called from C and that the
reference might be held in a C global variable, so it adds the
class to the VM root.
In the case of `Struct.new('Name')` it's wasteful and make
the struct immortal.
We should set the m_tbl right after allocation before anything that can
trigger GC to avoid clone_p from becoming old and needing to fire write
barriers.

Closes [Feature #19729]
Previously 2 bits of the flags on each RVALUE are reserved to store the
number of GC cycles that each object has survived. This commit
introduces a new bit array on the heap page, called age_bits, to store
that information instead.
This patch still reserves one of the age bits in the flags (the old
FL_PROMOTED0 bit, now renamed FL_PROMOTED).
This is set to 0 for young objects and 1 for old objects, and is used as
a performance optimisation for the write barrier. Fetching the age_bits
from the heap page and doing the required math to calculate if the
object was old or not would slow down the write barrier. So we keep this
bit synced in the flags for fast access.
This reverts commit 10621f7cb9.
This was reverted because the gc integrity build started failing. We
have figured out a fix so I'm reopening the PR.
Original commit message:
Fix cvar caching when class is cloned
The class variable cache that was added in
ruby#4544 changed the behavior of class
variables on cloned classes. As reported when a class is cloned AND a
class variable was set, and the class variable was read from the
original class, reading a class variable from the cloned class would
return the value from the original class.
This was happening because the IC (inline cache) is stored on the ISEQ
which is shared between the original and cloned class, therefore they
share the cache too.
To fix this we are now storing the `cref` in the cache so that we can
check if it's equal to the current `cref`. If it's different we don't
want to read from the cache. If it's the same we do. Cloned classes
don't share the same cref with their original class.
This will need to be backported to 3.1 in addition to 3.2 since the bug
exists in both versions.
We also added a marking function which was missing.

Given that signleton classes don't have an allocator,
we can re-use these bytes to store the attached object
in `rb_classext_struct` without making it larger.
Right now the attached object is stored as an instance variable
and all the call sites that either get or set it have to know how it's
stored.
It's preferable to hide this implementation detail behind accessors
so that it is easier to change how it's stored.
When a class with a class variable is cloned we need to also copy the
cvar cache table from the original table to the clone. I found this bug
while working on fixing [Bug #19379]. While this does not fix that bug
directly it is still a required change to fix another bug revealed by
the fix in https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/7265
This needs to be backported to 3.2.x and 3.1.x.

Previously, when we froze an object, we froze
`RCLASS_ORIGIN(object.singleton_class)`, which didn't freeze
`object.singleton_class` when it has some prepended modules.
Origin iclass are internal objects and users can't interact with
them through Kernel#freeze?, Kernel#freeze, or any mutation method
that checks the frozen status. So we shouldn't touch the origin
iclasses when the frozen status should be visible.
[Bug #19169]
In 274870bd5434ab64ac3a3c9db9aa27d262c1d6d6 we gained the ability to
make an educated guess at the max_iv_count of a class based on its
initialize method. This commit makes subclasses inherit their super's
max_iv_count, which makes the estimate work in cases that the subclass
does not have an initialize method.
This commit adds a `capacity` field to shapes, and adds shape
transitions whenever an object's capacity changes. Objects which are
allocated out of a bigger size pool will also make a transition from the
root shape to the shape with the correct capacity for their size pool
when they are allocated.
This commit will allow us to remove numiv from objects completely, and
will also mean we can guarantee that if two objects share shapes, their
IVs are in the same positions (an embedded and extended object cannot
share shapes). This will enable us to implement ivar sets in YJIT using
object shapes.

* Avoid RCLASS_IV_TBL in marshal.c
* Avoid RCLASS_IV_TBL for class names
* Avoid RCLASS_IV_TBL for autoload
* Avoid RCLASS_IV_TBL for class variables
* Avoid copying RCLASS_IV_TBL onto ICLASSes
* Use object shapes for Class and Module IVs
Before object shapes, we were using class serial to invalidate
inline caches. Now that we use shape_id for inline cache keys,
the class serial is unnecessary.

Implements [Feature #12084]
Returns the object for which the receiver is the singleton class, or
raises TypeError if the receiver is not a singleton class.
rb_ary_tmp_new suggests that the array is temporary in some way, but
that's not true, it just creates an array that's hidden and not on the
transient heap. This commit renames it to rb_ary_hidden_new.
While walking over the list of subclasses for `include` and friends, we
check whether the subclass is a garbage object. After the check, we
allocate objects which might trigger GC and make the subclass garbage,
even though before the allocation the subclass was not garbage. This is
a sort of time-of-check-time-of-use issue.
Fix this by saving the weak reference to a local variable, upgrading it
to a strong reference while we do the allocation. It makes the code look
slightly nicer even if it doesn't fix any runtime issues.
Previously in some when classes were duped (specifically those with a
prepended module), they would not correctly have their "superclasses"
array or depth filled in.
This could cause ancestry checks (like is_a? and Module comparisons) to
return incorrect results.
This happened because rb_mod_init_copy builds origin classes in an order
that doesn't have the super linked list fully connected until it's
finished. This commit fixes the previous issue by calling
rb_class_update_superclasses before returning the cloned class. This is
similar to what's already done in make_metaclass.
This commit reintroduces finer-grained constant cache invalidation.
After 8008fb7 got merged, it was causing issues on token-threaded
builds (such as on Windows).
The issue was that when you're iterating through instruction sequences
and using the translator functions to get back the instruction structs,
you're either using `rb_vm_insn_null_translator` or
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` depending if it's a direct-threading build.
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` does some normalization to always return to
you the non-trace version of whatever instruction you're looking at.
`rb_vm_insn_null_translator` does not do that normalization.
This means that when you're looping through the instructions if you're
trying to do an opcode comparison, it can change depending on the type
of threading that you're using. This can be very confusing. So, this
commit creates a new translator function
`rb_vm_insn_normalizing_translator` to always return the non-trace
version so that opcode comparisons don't have to worry about different
configurations.
