To make some kind of Ractor related extensions, some functions
should be exposed.
* include/ruby/thread_native.h
* rb_native_mutex_*
* rb_native_cond_*
* include/ruby/ractor.h
* RB_OBJ_SHAREABLE_P(obj)
* rb_ractor_shareable_p(obj)
* rb_ractor_std*()
* rb_cRactor
and rm ractor_pub.h
and rename srcdir/ractor.h to srcdir/ractor_core.h
(to avoid conflict with include/ruby/ractor.h)
This commit introduces Ractor mechanism to run Ruby program in
parallel. See doc/ractor.md for more details about Ractor.
See ticket [Feature #17100] to see the implementation details
and discussions.
[Feature #17100]
This commit does not complete the implementation. You can find
many bugs on using Ractor. Also the specification will be changed
so that this feature is experimental. You will see a warning when
you make the first Ractor with `Ractor.new`.
I hope this feature can help programmers from thread-safety issues.
Before this commit, iclasses were "shady", or not protected by write
barriers. Because of that, the GC needs to spend more time marking these
objects than otherwise.
Applications that make heavy use of modules should see reduction in GC
time as they have a significant number of live iclasses on the heap.
- Put logic for iclass method table ownership into a function
- Remove calls to WB_UNPROTECT and insert write barriers for iclasses
This commit relies on the following invariant: for any non oirigin
iclass `I`, `RCLASS_M_TBL(I) == RCLASS_M_TBL(RBasic(I)->klass)`. This
invariant did not hold prior to 98286e9 for classes and modules that
have prepended modules.
[Feature #16984]
98286e9850 made it so that
`Module#include` allocates an origin iclass on each use. Since `include`
is widely used, the extra allocation can contribute significantly to
memory usage.
Instead of always allocating in anticipation of prepend, this change
takes a different approach. The new setup inserts a origin iclass into
the super chains of all the children of the module when prepend happens
for the first time.
rb_ensure_origin is made static again since now that adding an origin
now means walking over all usages, we want to limit the number of places
where we do it.
(I was not aware of this because I use clang, but) it seems gcc cannot
detect reachablility of this point. It renders an unused variable
warning, which is a false positive. Let us suppress the compiler.
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/runs/816997191#step:9:62
This fixes various issues when a module is included in or prepended
to a module or class, and then refined, or refined and then included
or prepended to a module or class.
Implement by renaming ensure_origin to rb_ensure_origin, making it
non-static, and calling it when refining a module.
Fix Module#initialize_copy to handle origins correctly. Previously,
Module#initialize_copy did not handle origins correctly. For example,
this code:
```ruby
module B; end
class A
def b; 2 end
prepend B
end
a = A.dup.new
class A
def b; 1 end
end
p a.b
```
Printed 1 instead of 2. This is because the super chain for
a.singleton_class was:
```
a.singleton_class
A.dup
B(iclass)
B(iclass origin)
A(origin) # not A.dup(origin)
```
The B iclasses would not be modified, so the includer entry would be
still be set to A and not A.dup.
This modifies things so that if the class/module has an origin,
all iclasses between the class/module and the origin are duplicated
and have the correct includer entry set, and the correct origin
is created.
This requires other changes to make sure all tests still pass:
* rb_undef_methods_from doesn't automatically handle classes with
origins, so pass it the origin for Comparable when undefing
methods in Complex. This fixed a failure in the Complex tests.
* When adding a method, the method cache was not cleared
correctly if klass has an origin. Clear the method cache for
the klass before switching to the origin of klass. This fixed
failures in the autoload tests related to overridding require,
without breaking the optimization tests. Also clear the method
cache for both the module and origin when removing a method.
* Module#include? is fixed to skip origin iclasses.
* Refinements are fixed to use the origin class of the module that
has an origin.
* RCLASS_REFINED_BY_ANY is removed as it was only used in a single
place and is no longer needed.
* Marshal#dump is fixed to skip iclass origins.
* rb_method_entry_make is fixed to handled overridden optimized
methods for modules that have origins.
Fixes [Bug #16852]
Since 0c2d81dada, not all trace events are cleared during VM teardown.
This causes a crash when there is a tracepoint for
`RUBY_INTERNAL_EVENT_GC_EXIT` active during teardown.
The commit looks like a refactoring commit so I think this change was
unintentional.
[Bug #16682]
This patch contains several ideas:
(1) Disposable inline method cache (IMC) for race-free inline method cache
* Making call-cache (CC) as a RVALUE (GC target object) and allocate new
CC on cache miss.
* This technique allows race-free access from parallel processing
elements like RCU.
(2) Introduce per-Class method cache (pCMC)
* Instead of fixed-size global method cache (GMC), pCMC allows flexible
cache size.
* Caching CCs reduces CC allocation and allow sharing CC's fast-path
between same call-info (CI) call-sites.
(3) Invalidate an inline method cache by invalidating corresponding method
entries (MEs)
* Instead of using class serials, we set "invalidated" flag for method
entry itself to represent cache invalidation.
* Compare with using class serials, the impact of method modification
(add/overwrite/delete) is small.
* Updating class serials invalidate all method caches of the class and
sub-classes.
* Proposed approach only invalidate the method cache of only one ME.
See [Feature #16614] for more details.
This removes the warnings added in 2.7, and changes the behavior
so that a final positional hash is not treated as keywords or
vice-versa.
To handle the arg_setup_block splat case correctly with keyword
arguments, we need to check if we are taking a keyword hash.
That case didn't have a test, but it affects real-world code,
so add a test for it.
This removes rb_empty_keyword_given_p() and related code, as
that is not needed in Ruby 3. The empty keyword case is the
same as the no keyword case in Ruby 3.
This changes rb_scan_args to implement keyword argument
separation for C functions when the : character is used.
For backwards compatibility, it returns a duped hash.
This is a bad idea for performance, but not duping the hash
breaks at least Enumerator::ArithmeticSequence#inspect.
Instead of having RB_PASS_CALLED_KEYWORDS be a number,
simplify the code by just making it be rb_keyword_given_p().
Saves comitters' daily life by avoid #include-ing everything from
internal.h to make each file do so instead. This would significantly
speed up incremental builds.
We take the following inclusion order in this changeset:
1. "ruby/config.h", where _GNU_SOURCE is defined (must be the very
first thing among everything).
2. RUBY_EXTCONF_H if any.
3. Standard C headers, sorted alphabetically.
4. Other system headers, maybe guarded by #ifdef
5. Everything else, sorted alphabetically.
Exceptions are those win32-related headers, which tend not be self-
containing (headers have inclusion order dependencies).
After the previous commit, this was still broken. The reason it
was broken is that a refined module that hasn't been prepended to
yet keeps the refined methods in the module's method table. When
prepending, the module's method table is moved to the origin
iclass, and then the refined methods are moved from the method
table to a new method table in the module itself.
Unfortunately, that means that if a class has included the module,
prepending breaks the refinements, because when the methods are
moved from the origin iclass method table to the module method
table, they are removed from the method table from the iclass
created when the module was included earlier.
Fix this by always creating an origin class when including a
module that has any refinements, even if the refinements are
not currently used. I wasn't sure the best way to do that.
The approach I choose was to use an object flag. The flag is
set on the module when Module#refine is called, and if the
flag is present when the module is included in another module
or class, an origin iclass is created for the module.
Fixes [Bug #13446]
This removes the security features added by $SAFE = 1, and warns for access
or modification of $SAFE from Ruby-level, as well as warning when calling
all public C functions related to $SAFE.
This modifies some internal functions that took a safe level argument
to no longer take the argument.
rb_require_safe now warns, rb_require_string has been added as a
version that takes a VALUE and does not warn.
One public C function that still takes a safe level argument and that
this doesn't warn for is rb_eval_cmd. We may want to consider
adding an alternative method that does not take a safe level argument,
and warn for rb_eval_cmd.
It is not safe to set this in C functions that can be called from
other C functions, as in the non argument-delegation case, you
can end up calling a Ruby method with a flag indicating keywords
are set without passing keywords.
Introduce some new *_kw functions that take a kw_splat flag and
use these functions to set RB_PASS_CALLED_KEYWORDS in places where
we know we are delegating methods (e.g. Class#new, Method#call)
Remove rb_add_empty_keyword, and instead of calling that every
place you need to add empty keyword hashes, run that code in
a single static function in vm_eval.c.
Add 4 defines to include/ruby/ruby.h, these are to be used as
int kw_splat values when calling the various rb_*_kw functions:
RB_NO_KEYWORDS :: Do not pass keywords
RB_PASS_KEYWORDS :: Pass final argument (which should be hash) as keywords
RB_PASS_EMPTY_KEYWORDS :: Add an empty hash to arguments and pass as keywords
RB_PASS_CALLED_KEYWORDS :: Passes same keyword type as current method was
called with (for method delegation)
rb_empty_keyword_given_p needs to stay. It is required if argument
delegation is done but delayed to a later point, which Enumerator
does.
Use RB_PASS_CALLED_KEYWORDS in rb_call_super to correctly
delegate keyword arguments to super method.
Also add keyword argument separation warnings for Class#new and Method#call.
To allow for keyword argument to required positional hash converstion in
cfuncs, add a vm frame flag indicating the cfunc was called with an empty
keyword hash (which was removed before calling the cfunc). The cfunc can
check this frame flag and add back an empty hash if it is passing its
arguments to another Ruby method. Add rb_empty_keyword_given_p function
for checking if called with an empty keyword hash, and
rb_add_empty_keyword for adding back an empty hash to argv.
All of this empty keyword argument support is only for 2.7. It will be
removed in 3.0 as Ruby 3 will not convert empty keyword arguments to
required positional hash arguments. Comment all of the relevent code
to make it obvious this is expected to be removed.
Add rb_funcallv_kw as an public C-API function, just like rb_funcallv
but with a keyword flag. This is used by rb_obj_call_init (internals
of Class#new). This also required expected call_type enum with
CALL_FCALL_KW, similar to the recent addition of CALL_PUBLIC_KW.
Add rb_vm_call_kw as a internal function, used by call_method_data
(internals of Method#call and UnboundMethod#bind_call). Add tests
for UnboundMethod#bind_call keyword handling.
Compilation of extension libraries written in C++ are reportedly
broken due to https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/2404
The root cause of this issue was that the definition of ANYARGS
differ between C and C++, and that of C++ is incompatible with the
updated ones.
We are using the incompatibility against itself. In C++ two distinct
function prototypes can be overloaded. We provide the old, ANYARGSed
prototypes in addition to the current granular ones; and let the
older ones warn about types.
for simplicity and consistency.
Now SUPPORT_JOKE needs to be prefixed with OPT_ to make the config
visible in `RubyVM::VmOptsH`, and the inconsistency was introduced.
As it has never been available for override in configure (no #ifndef
guard), it should be fine to rename the config.
We can check the function pointer passed to rb_define_global_function
like we do so in rb_define_method. It turns out that almost anybody
is misunderstanding the API.
After 5e86b005c0, I now think ANYARGS is
dangerous and should be extinct. This commit uses rb_gvar_getter_t /
rb_gvar_setter_t for rb_define_hooked_variable /
rb_define_virtual_variable which revealed lots of function prototype
inconsistencies. Some of them were literally decades old, going back
to dda5dc00cf.
After 5e86b005c0, I now think ANYARGS is
dangerous and should be extinct. This commit deletes ANYARGS from
rb_ensure, which also revealed many arity / type mismatches.
After 5e86b005c0, I now think ANYARGS is
dangerous and should be extinct. This commit deletes ANYARGS from
rb_rescue / rb_rescue2, which revealed many arity / type mismatches.
* Make it clear as possible that RubyVM is MRI-specific and only exists on MRI
* See [Bug #15743].
