This makes behavior the same as super in instance_eval in method
in class. The reason this wasn't implemented before is that
there is a check to determine if the self in the current context
is of the expected class, and a module itself can be included
in multiple classes, so it doesn't have an expected class.
Implementing this requires giving iclasses knowledge of which
class created them, so that super call in the module method
knows the expected class for super calls. This reference
is called includer, and should only be set for iclasses.
Note that the approach Ruby uses in this check is not robust. If
you instance_eval another object of the same class and call super,
instead of an TypeError, you get super called with the
instance_eval receiver instead of the method receiver. Truly
fixing super would require keeping a reference to the super object
(method receiver) in each frame where scope has changed, and using
that instead of current self when calling super.
Fixes [Bug #11636]
This commit introduces an "inline ivar cache" struct. The reason we
need this is so compaction can differentiate from an ivar cache and a
regular inline cache. Regular inline caches contain references to
`VALUE` and ivar caches just contain references to the ivar index. With
this new struct we can easily update references for inline caches (but
not inline var caches as they just contain an int)
Asynchronous events such as signal trap, finalization timing,
thread switching and so on are managed by "interrupt_flag".
Ruby's threads check this flag periodically and if a thread
does not check this flag, above events doesn't happen.
This checking is CHECK_INTS() (related) macro and it is placed
at some places (laeve instruction and so on). However, at the end
of C methods, C blocks (IMEMO_IFUNC) etc there are no checking
and it can introduce uninterruptible thread.
To modify this situation, we decide to place CHECK_INTS() at
vm_pop_frame(). It increases interrupt checking points.
[Bug #16366]
This patch can introduce unexpected events...
By this change, the following code prints only one warning.
```
def foo(**opt); end
100.times { foo({kw:1}) }
```
A global variable `st_table *caller_to_callees` is a map from caller to
a set of callee methods. It remembers that a warning is already printed
for each pair of caller and callee.
[Feature #16289]
opt_invokebuiltin_delegate and opt_invokebuiltin_delegate_leave
invokes builtin functions with same parameters of the method.
This technique eliminate stack push operations. However, delegation
parameters should be completely same as given parameters.
(e.g. `def foo(a, b, c) __builtin_foo(a, b, c)` is okay, but
__builtin_foo(b, c) is not allowed)
This patch relaxes this restriction. ISeq has a local variables
table which includes parameters. For example, the method defined
as `def foo(a, b, c) x=y=nil`, then local variables table contains
[a, b, c, x, y]. If calling builtin-function with arguments which
are sub-array of the lvar table, use opt_invokebuiltin_delegate
instruction with start index. For example, `__builtin_foo(b, c)`,
`__builtin_bar(c, x, y)` is okay, and so on.
rb_vm_lvar_exposed() is prepared for __builtin_inline!(), needed for
mini_builtin.c and builtin.c. However, it's only on builtin.c.
So move it to make it as a part of VM.
Fixes [Bug #16332]
Constant access was changed to no longer allow top-level constant access
through `nil`, but `defined?` wasn't changed at the same time to stay
consistent.
Use a separate defined type to distinguish between a constant
referenced from the current lexical scope and one referenced from
another namespace.
vm_invoke_builtin() accesses VM stack via cfp->sp. However, MJIT
can use their own stack. To access them appropriately, we need to
use STACK_ADDR_FROM_TOP().
A method which has keyword parameters has an implicit local variable
to specify which keywords are (un)specified.
vm_call_iseq_setup_kwparm_nokwarg() is special function to invoke
a ISeq method without any keyword arguments. However, it should
also initialize the special local var. Without this initialization,
the implicit lvar can points a freed (T_NONE) object.
Support loading builtin features written in Ruby, which implement
with C builtin functions.
[Feature #16254]
Several features:
(1) Load .rb file at boottime with native binary.
Now, prelude.rb is loaded at boottime. However, this file is contained
into the interpreter as a text format and we need to compile it.
This patch contains a feature to load from binary format.
(2) __builtin_func() in Ruby call func() written in C.
In Ruby file, we can write `__builtin_func()` like method call.
However this is not a method call, but special syntax to call
a function `func()` written in C. C functions should be defined
in a file (same compile unit) which load this .rb file.
Functions (`func` in above example) should be defined with
(a) 1st parameter: rb_execution_context_t *ec
(b) rest parameters (0 to 15).
(c) VALUE return type.
This is very similar requirements for functions used by
rb_define_method(), however `rb_execution_context_t *ec`
is new requirement.
(3) automatic C code generation from .rb files.
tool/mk_builtin_loader.rb creates a C code to load .rb files
needed by miniruby and ruby command. This script is run by
BASERUBY, so *.rb should be written in BASERUBY compatbile
syntax. This script load a .rb file and find all of __builtin_
prefix method calls, and generate a part of C code to export
functions.
tool/mk_builtin_binary.rb creates a C code which contains
binary compiled Ruby files needed by ruby command.
Prior to this changeset, majority of inline cache mishits resulted
into the same method entry when rb_callable_method_entry() resolves
a method search. Let's not call the function at the first place on
such situations.
In doing so we extend the struct rb_call_cache from 44 bytes (in
case of 64 bit machine) to 64 bytes, and fill the gap with
secondary class serial(s). Call cache's class serials now behavies
as a LRU cache.

Noticed that rb_method_basic_definition_p is frequently called.
Its callers include vm_caller_setup_args_block(),
rb_hash_default_value(), rb_num_neative_int_p(), and a lot more.
It seems worth caching the method resolution part. Majority of
rb_method_basic_definion_p() usages take fixed class and fixed

This mirrors the behavior when manually splatting a hash. This
mirrors the changes made in setup_parameters_complex in
6081ddd6e6, so that splatting to a
non-iseq method works the same as splatting to an iseq method.
To perform a regular method call, the VM needs two structs,
`rb_call_info` and `rb_call_cache`. At the moment, we allocate these two
structures in separate buffers. In the worst case, the CPU needs to read
4 cache lines to complete a method call. Putting the two structures
together reduces the maximum number of cache line reads to 2.
Combining the structures also saves 8 bytes per call site as the current
layout uses separate two pointers for the call info and the call cache.
This saves about 2 MiB on Discourse.
This change improves the Optcarrot benchmark at least 3%. For more
details, see attached bugs.ruby-lang.org ticket.
Complications:
- A new instruction attribute `comptime_sp_inc` is introduced to
calculate SP increase at compile time without using call caches. At
compile time, a `TS_CALLDATA` operand points to a call info struct, but
at runtime, the same operand points to a call data struct. Instruction
that explicitly define `sp_inc` also need to define `comptime_sp_inc`.
- MJIT code for copying call cache becomes slightly more complicated.
- This changes the bytecode format, which might break existing tools.
[Misc #16258]
This reverts commits: 10d6a3aca78ba48c1b85fba8627dc1dd883de5ba6c6a25feca167e6b48f17cb96d41a53207979278595b3c4fdd1521f7cf89c11c5e69accf336082033632a812c0f56506be0d86427a3219 .
The reason for the revert is that we observe ABA problem around
inline method cache. When a cache misshits, we search for a
method entry. And if the entry is identical to what was cached
before, we reuse the cache. But the commits we are reverting here
introduced situations where a method entry is freed, then the
identical memory region is used for another method entry. An
inline method cache cannot detect that ABA.
Here is a code that reproduce such situation:
```ruby
require 'prime'
class << Integer
alias org_sqrt sqrt
def sqrt(n)
raise
end
GC.stress = true
Prime.each(7*37){} rescue nil # <- Here we populate CC
class << Object.new; end
# These adjacent remove-then-alias maneuver
# frees a method entry, then immediately
# reuses it for another.
remove_method :sqrt
alias sqrt org_sqrt
end
Prime.each(7*37).to_a # <- SEGV
```
return directly in class/module is an error, so return in
proc in class/module should also be an error. I believe the
previous behavior was an unintentional oversight during the
addition of top-level return in 2.4.
At last, not only myself but also your compiler are fully confident
that the method entries pointed from call caches are immutable. We
don't have to worry about silent updates. Just delete the branch
that is now always false.

vm2_poly_same_method 2.142M 2.070M i/s - 6.000M times in 2.801148s 2.898994s

Now that we have eliminated most destructive operations over the
rb_method_entry_t / rb_callable_method_entry_t, let's make them
mostly immutabe and mark them const.
One exception is rb_export_method(), which destructively modifies
visibilities of method entries. I have left that operation as is
because I suspect that destructiveness is the nature of that
function.
Tired of rb_method_entry_create(..., rb_method_definition_create(
..., &(rb_method_foo_t) {...})) maneuver. Provide a function that
does the thing to reduce copy&paste.
The deleted function was to destructively overwrite existing method
entries, which is now considered to be a bad idea. Delete it, and
assign a newly created method entry instead.
Before this changeset rb_method_definition_create only allocated a
memory region and we had to destructively initialize it later.
That is not a good design so we change the API to return a complete
struct instead.
Most (if not all) of the fields of rb_method_definition_t are never
meant to be modified once after they are stored. Marking them const
makes it possible for compilers to warn on unintended modifications.
If a method accepts no keywords and was called with a keyword, an
ArgumentError was not always issued previously. Force methods that
accept no keywords to go through setup_parameters_complex so that
an ArgumentError is raised if keywords are provided.
This approach uses a flag bit on the final hash object in the regular splat,
as opposed to a previous approach that used a VM frame flag. The hash flag
approach is less invasive, and handles some cases that the VM frame flag
approach does not, such as saving the argument splat array and splatting it
later:
ruby2_keywords def foo(*args)
@args = args
bar
end
def bar
baz(*@args)
end
def baz(*args, **kw)
[args, kw]
end
foo(a:1) #=> [[], {a: 1}]
foo({a: 1}, **{}) #=> [[{a: 1}], {}]
foo({a: 1}) #=> 2.7: [[], {a: 1}] # and warning
foo({a: 1}) #=> 3.0: [[{a: 1}], {}]
It doesn't handle some cases that the VM frame flag handles, such as when
the final hash object is replaced using Hash#merge, but those cases are
probably less common and are unlikely to properly support keyword
argument separation.
Use ruby2_keywords to handle argument delegation in the delegate library.
