Recently, `TestRubyLiteral#test_float` fails randomly.
```
1) Error:
TestRubyLiteral#test_float:
ArgumentError: SyntaxError#path changed: "(eval at /home/chkbuild/chkbuild/tmp/build/20240527T050036Z/ruby/test/ruby/test_literal.rb:642)"->"(eval at /home/chkbuild/chkbuild/tmp/build/20240527T050036Z/ruby/test/ruby/test_literal.rb:642)"

According to Launchable, the first failure was on Apr 30.
This is just when 528c4501f4 was
committed. I don't know if the change is really the cause, but I want to
revert it once to see if the random failure disappears.
With embedded strings we often have some space left in the slot, which
we can use to store the string Hash code.
It's probably only worth it for string literals, as they are the ones
likely to be used as hash keys.
We chose to store the Hash code right after the string terminator as to
make it easy/fast to compute, and not require one more union in RString.

ast_alloc uses TypedData_Make_Struct, which allocates a rb_ast_t. But it
is overwritten when we set the DATA_PTR so the original memory is leaked.
For example:
10.times do
100_000.times do
eval("")
end
puts `ps -o rss= -p #{$$}`
end

This patch moves `ast->node_buffer->config` to `ast->config` aiming to improve readability and maintainability of the source.
## Background
We could not add the `config` field to the `rb_ast_t *` due to the five-word restriction of the IMEMO object.
But it is now doable by merging https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10618
## About assigning `&rb_global_parser_config` to `ast->config` in `ast_alloc()`
The approach of not setting `ast->config` in `ast_alloc()` means that the client, CRuby in this scenario, that directly calls `ast_alloc()` will be responsible for releasing it if a resource that is passed to AST needs to be released.
However, we have put on hold whether we can guarantee the above so far, thus, this patch looks like that.
```
// ruby_parser.c
static VALUE
ast_alloc(void)
{
rb_ast_t *ast;
VALUE vast = TypedData_Make_Struct(0, rb_ast_t, &ast_data_type, ast);
#ifdef UNIVERSAL_PARSER
ast = (rb_ast_t *)DATA_PTR(vast);
ast->config = &rb_global_parser_config;
#endif
return vast;
}
```
This patch adds `int line_count` field to `rb_ast_body_t` structure.
Instead, we no longer cast `script_lines` to Fixnum.
## Background
Ref https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10618
In the PR above, we have decoupled IMEMO from `rb_ast_t`.
This means we could lift the five-words-restriction of the structure
that forced us to unionize `rb_ast_t *` and `FIXNUM` in one field.
## Relating refactor
- Remove the second parameter of `rb_ruby_ast_new()` function
## Attention
I will remove a code that assigns -1 to line_count, in `rb_binding_add_dynavars()`
of vm.c, because I don't think it is necessary.
But I will make another PR for this so that we can atomically revert
in case I was wrong (See the comment on the code)
This patch removes the `VALUE flags` member from the `rb_ast_t` structure making `rb_ast_t` no longer an IMEMO object.
## Background
We are trying to make the Ruby parser generated from parse.y a universal parser that can be used by other implementations such as mruby.
To achieve this, it is necessary to exclude VALUE and IMEMO from parse.y, AST, and NODE.
## Summary (file by file)
- `rubyparser.h`
- Remove the `VALUE flags` member from `rb_ast_t`
- `ruby_parser.c` and `internal/ruby_parser.h`
- Use TypedData_Make_Struct VALUE which wraps `rb_ast_t` `in ast_alloc()` so that GC can manage it
- You can retrieve `rb_ast_t` from the VALUE by `rb_ruby_ast_data_get()`
- Change the return type of `rb_parser_compile_XXXX()` functions from `rb_ast_t *` to `VALUE`
- rb_ruby_ast_new() which internally `calls ast_alloc()` is to create VALUE vast outside ruby_parser.c
- `iseq.c` and `vm_core.h`
- Amend the first parameter of `rb_iseq_new_XXXX()` functions from `rb_ast_body_t *` to `VALUE`
- This keeps the VALUE of AST on the machine stack to prevent being removed by GC
- `ast.c`
- Almost all change is replacement `rb_ast_t *ast` with `VALUE vast` (sorry for the big diff)
- Fix `node_memsize()`
- Now it includes `rb_ast_local_table_link`, `tokens` and script_lines
- `compile.c`, `load.c`, `node.c`, `parse.y`, `proc.c`, `ruby.c`, `template/prelude.c.tmpl`, `vm.c` and `vm_eval.c`
- Follow-up due to the above changes
- `imemo.{c|h}`
- If an object with `imemo_ast` appears, considers it a bug

Refactor parser compile functions to reduce the dependence
on ruby functions.
This commit includes these changes
1. Refactor `gets`, `input` and `gets_` of `parser_params`
Parser needs two different data structure to get next line, function (`gets`) and input data (`input`).
However `gets_` is used for both function (`call`) and input data (`ptr`).
`call` is used for managing general callback function when `rb_ruby_parser_compile_generic` is used.
`ptr` is used for managing the current pointer on String when `parser_compile_string` is used.
This commit changes parser to used only `gets` and `input` then removes `gets_`.
2. Move parser_compile functions and `gets` functions from parse.y to ruby_parser.c
This change reduces the dependence on ruby functions from parser.
3. Change ruby_parser and ripper to take care of `VALUE input` GC mark
Move the responsibility of calling `rb_gc_mark` for `VALUE input` from parser to ruby_parser and ripper.
`input` is arbitrary data pointer from the viewpoint of parser.
4. Introduce rb_parser_compile_array function
Caller of `rb_parser_compile_generic` needs to take care about GC because ruby_parser doesn’t know
about the detail of `lex_gets` and `input`.
Introduce `rb_parser_compile_array` to reduce the complexity of ast.c.
This patch is part of universal parser work.
## Summary
- Decouple VALUE from members below:
- `(struct parser_params *)->debug_lines`
- `(rb_ast_t *)->body.script_lines`
- Instead, they are now `rb_parser_ary_t *`
- They can also be a `(VALUE)FIXNUM` as before to hold line count
- `ISEQ_BODY(iseq)->variable.script_lines` remains VALUE
- In order to do this,
- Add `VALUE script_lines` param to `rb_iseq_new_with_opt()`
- Introduce `rb_parser_build_script_lines_from()` to convert `rb_parser_ary_t *` into `VALUE`
## Other details
- Extend `rb_parser_ary_t *`. It previously could only store `rb_parser_ast_token *`, now can store script_lines, too
- Change tactics of building the top-level `SCRIPT_LINES__` in `yycompile0()`
- Before: While parsing, each line of the script is added to `SCRIPT_LINES__[path]`
- After: After `yyparse(p)`, `SCRIPT_LINES__[path]` will be built from `p->debug_lines`
- Remove the second parameter of `rb_parser_set_script_lines()` to make it simple
- Introduce `script_lines_free()` to be called from `rb_ast_free()` because the GC no longer takes care of the script_lines
- Introduce `rb_parser_string_deep_copy()` in parse.y to maintain script_lines when `rb_ruby_parser_free()` called
- With regard to this, please see *Future tasks* below
## Future tasks
- Decouple IMEMO from `rb_ast_t *`
- This lifts the five-members-restriction of Ruby object,
- So we will be able to move the ownership of the `lex.string_buffer` from parser to AST
- Then we remove `rb_parser_string_deep_copy()` to make the whole thing simple
The `rb_fstring(rb_enc_str_new())` pattern is inneficient because:
- It passes a mutable string to `rb_fstring` so if it has to be interned
it will first be duped.
- It an equivalent interned string already exists, we allocated the string
for nothing.
With `rb_enc_interned_str` we either directly get the pre-existing string
with 0 allocations, or efficiently directly intern the one we create
without first duping it.
This patch suggests relocating the code dealing with `SCRIPT_LINES__` from ast.c to ruby_parser.c.
## Background
- I guess `AbstractSyntaxTree.of` method used to use `SCRIPT_LINES__` internally for some reason before
- However, now it appears `SCRIPT_LINES__` is no longer used meaningfully by the method
- As evidence of this, (and as my patch shows,) removing the function call of `rb_script_lines_for()` from `ast_s_of()` does not affect the result of `test/ruby/test_ast.rb`
Given the above, I think two possibilities can be considered:
- (A) `AbstractSyntaxTree.of` has not needed `SCRIPT_LINES__` already (I pick this)
- (B) We lack a test case of `AbstractSyntaxTree.of` that needs to use `SCRIPT_LINES__`
## Besides,
The current implementation causes strange behavior:
```console
ruby -e"SCRIPT_LINES__ = {__FILE__ => []}; puts RubyVM::AbstractSyntaxTree.of(->{ 1 + 2 }, keep_script_lines: true).script_lines"
=> `-e:1:in '<main>': undefined method 'script_lines' for nil (NoMethodError)`
```
I think this is a bug because `AbstractSyntaxTree.of` is not supposed to return `nil` even in this case.
This happens due to the ast.c's dependence on `SCRIPT_LINES__`.
And at the end of the `ast_s_of()`, `node_find()` can not find the target child node obviously because it doesn't make sense to look for a corresponding node made from the parameter of `AbstractSyntaxTree.of` in the AST tree made from the value of `{__FILE__ => []}`
## Solution
Since I think it's good enough `SCRIPT_LINES__` to be only referred by ruby.c, I chose the possibility "(A)" and wrote this patch which moves `rb_script_lines_for()` from ast.c to ruby_parser.c.
So as the result:
- `ast_s_of()` function no longer look up `SCRIPT_LINES__`
- Even so, this patched code passes the existing tests
- The strange behavior above no longer happens (I also added a test for it)
Please correct me if I miss something🙏
This commit simplifies warnings for hash keys duplication and when clause duplication,
based on the discussion of https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20331.
Warnings are reported only when strings are same to ohters.
- Introduce `rb_parser_ary_t` structure to partly eliminate RArray from parse.y
- In this patch, `parser_params->tokens` and `parser_params->ast->node_buffer->tokens` are now `rb_parser_ary_t *`
- Instead, `ast_node_all_tokens()` internally creates a Ruby Array object from the `rb_parser_ary_t`
- Also, delete `rb_ast_tokens()` and `rb_ast_set_tokens()` in node.c
- Implement `rb_parser_str_escape()`
- This is a port of the `rb_str_escape()` function in string.c
- `rb_parser_str_escape()` does not depend on `VALUE` (RString)
- Instead, it uses `rb_parser_stirng_t *`
- This function works when --dump=y option passed
- Because WIP of the universal parser, similar functions like `rb_parser_tokens_free()` exist in both node.c and parse.y. Refactoring them may be needed in some way in the future
- Although we considered redesigning the structure: `ast->node_buffer->tokens` into `ast->tokens`, we leave it as it is because `rb_ast_t` is an imemo. (We will address it in the future)
Rather than exposing that an imemo has a flag and four fields, this
changes the implementation to only expose one field (the klass) and
fills the rest with 0. The type will have to fill in the values themselves.
