Loading an extension library with ".dll" suffix on Windows was very
old behavior, and the suffix must be ".so" since 2004. See commits
removing DLEXT2 181a3a2af5 and
b76ad15ed0.
Instead, use macOS as an example, which uses ".bundle".

`Kernel#require` converts feature name objects that have the `to_path`
method such as `Pathname`, but had used the original object on error
and had resulted in an unexpected `TypeError`.
Number of lstat and stat syscalls for each 'require'd file is doubled,
because rb_realpath_internal is called from two places with the same
arguments in require_internal; once for checking the realpaths cache,
and once in load_iseq_eval when iseq is not found.
Introduce rb_realpath_internal_cached function to reuse the realpath_map
cache which memoizes rb_realpath_internal function, leading to less
syscalls and increased startup performance depending on the cost of the syscalls
in a particular environment.
Introduce Universal Parser mode for the parser.
This commit includes these changes:
* Introduce `UNIVERSAL_PARSER` macro. All of CRuby related functions
are passed via `struct rb_parser_config_struct` when this macro is enabled.
* Add CI task with 'cppflags=-DUNIVERSAL_PARSER' for ubuntu.
After [1], using ext/Setup to link some, but not all extensions failed
during linking. I did not know about this option, and had assumed that
only `--with-static-linked-ext` builds can include statically linked
extensions.
Include the support code for statically linked extensions in all
configurations like before [1]. Initialize the table lazily to minimize
footprint on builds that have no statically linked extensions.
[1]: 790cf4b6d0 "Fix autoload status of
statically linked extensions"
Rebuilding the loaded feature index slowed down with the bug fix
for #17885 in 79a4484a07. The
slowdown was extreme if realpath emulation was used, but even when
not emulated, it could be about 10x slower.
This adds loaded_features_realpath_map to rb_vm_struct. This is a
hidden hash mapping loaded feature paths to realpaths. When
rebuilding the loaded feature index, look at this hash to get
cached realpath values, and skip calling rb_check_realpath if a
cached value is found.

When loading Ruby source files, we can save the result of
successful opens as open(2)/openat(2) are a fairly expensive
syscalls. This also avoids a time-of-check-to-time-of-use
(TOCTTOU) problem.
This reduces open(2) syscalls during `require'; but should be
most apparent when users have a small $LOAD_PATH. Users with
large $LOAD_PATH will benefit less since there'll be more
open(2) failures due to ENOENT.
With `strace -c -e openat ruby -e exit' under Linux, this
results in a ~14% reduction of openat(2) syscalls
(glibc uses openat(2) to implement open(2)).
% time seconds usecs/call calls errors syscall
------ ----------- ----------- --------- --------- ----------------
0.00 0.000000 0 296 110 openat
0.00 0.000000 0 254 110 openat
Additionally, the introduction of `struct ruby_file_load_state'
may make future optimizations more apparent.
This change cannot benefit binary (.so) loading since the
dlopen(3) API requires a filename and I'm not aware of an
alternative that takes a pre-existing FD. In typical
situations, Ruby source files outnumber the mount of .so
files.

If multiple threads attemps to load the same file concurrently
it's not a circular dependency issue.
So we check that the existing ThreadShield is owner by the current
fiber before warning about circular dependencies.

Previously, for statically-linked extensions, we used
`vm->loading_table` to delay calling the init function until the
extensions are required. This caused the extensions to look like they
are in the middle of being loaded even before they're required.
(`rb_feature_p()` returned true with a loading path output.) Combined
with autoload, queries like `defined?(CONST)` and `Module#autoload?`
were confused by this and returned nil incorrectly. RubyGems uses
`defined?` to detect if OpenSSL is available and failed when OpenSSL was
available in builds using `--with-static-linked-ext`.
Use a dedicated table for the init functions instead of adding them to
the loading table. This lets us remove some logic from non-EXTSTATIC
builds.
[Bug #19115]
We use this code path when we require the same extension twice, so it's
not necessarily about the feature being statically linked. Removing this
code when there is no statically linked extensions leads to breakage.
This patch pushes dummy frames when loading code for the
profiling purpose.
The following methods push a dummy frame:
* `Kernel#require`
* `Kernel#load`
* `RubyVM::InstructionSequence.compile_file`
* `RubyVM::InstructionSequence.load_from_binary`

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.
darray was used in YJIT which required the functions to not trigger GC.
YJIT has now moved to Rust and does not use darray anymore, so we can
remove the functions that don't trigger GC and only keep the ones that
trigger GC.
In December 2021, we opened an [issue] to solicit feedback regarding the
porting of the YJIT codebase from C99 to Rust. There were some
reservations, but this project was given the go ahead by Ruby core
developers and Matz. Since then, we have successfully completed the port
of YJIT to Rust.
The new Rust version of YJIT has reached parity with the C version, in
that it passes all the CRuby tests, is able to run all of the YJIT
benchmarks, and performs similarly to the C version (because it works
the same way and largely generates the same machine code). We've even
incorporated some design improvements, such as a more fine-grained
constant invalidation mechanism which we expect will make a big
difference in Ruby on Rails applications.
Because we want to be careful, YJIT is guarded behind a configure
option:
```shell
./configure --enable-yjit # Build YJIT in release mode
./configure --enable-yjit=dev # Build YJIT in dev/debug mode
```
By default, YJIT does not get compiled and cargo/rustc is not required.
If YJIT is built in dev mode, then `cargo` is used to fetch development
dependencies, but when building in release, `cargo` is not required,
only `rustc`. At the moment YJIT requires Rust 1.60.0 or newer.
The YJIT command-line options remain mostly unchanged, and more details
about the build process are documented in `doc/yjit/yjit.md`.
The CI tests have been updated and do not take any more resources than
before.
The development history of the Rust port is available at the following
commit for interested parties:
1fd9573d8b
Our hope is that Rust YJIT will be compiled and included as a part of
system packages and compiled binaries of the Ruby 3.2 release. We do not
anticipate any major problems as Rust is well supported on every
platform which YJIT supports, but to make sure that this process works
smoothly, we would like to reach out to those who take care of building
systems packages before the 3.2 release is shipped and resolve any
issues that may come up.

[Bug #18599]
`vm->loaded_features` and `vm->loaded_features_snapshot` both share the
same root. When a feature is pushed into `loaded_features`, the sharing
is broken and `loaded_features` is copied.
So an application requiring 1000 files, will allocate 1000 arrays of
increasing size, which is very wasteful.
To avoid this, we first clear the snapshot, so that `loaded_features`
can directly be pushed into.

Using a fake (malloc) RArray is not friendly for the garbage
collector. Fake RArray does not have a heap page, so it causes Variable
Width Allocation to crash when we try to implement it on Arrays.
This commit changes feature_index from a RArray to a darray.
Previously this was being incorrectly swapped with TAG_RAISE in the next
line. This would end up checking the T_IMEMO throw_data to the exception
handling (which calls Module#===). This happened to not break existing
tests because Module#=== returned false when klass is NULL.
This commit handles throw from require correctly by jumping to the tag
retaining the TAG_THROW state.
Instead of always using a new anonymous module for Kernel#load if
the wrap argument is not false/nil, use the given module if a module
is provided.

Solaris CI still has a problem even with these commits, so it doesn't
appear to fix the issue. Reverting both 84e8e2a39bba874433b661bd378165bd03c9d6aa
and bfd2f159f0c60ef8ac5bce6042edd25a571769b7.
This appears to be only necessary on Solaris, but this commit
enables it unconditionally to test breakage. The following
commit will switch to only enabling it on Solaris.
This fixes issues with paths being loaded twice in certain cases
when symlinks are used.
It took me multiple attempts to get this working. My original
attempt tried to convert paths to realpaths before adding them
to $LOADED_FEATURES. Unfortunately, this doesn't work well
with the loaded feature index, which is based off load paths
and not realpaths. While I was able to get require working, I'm
fairly sure the loaded feature index was not being used as
expected, which would have significant performance implications.
Additionally, I was never able to get that approach working with
autoload when autoloading a non-realpath file. It also broke
some specs.
This takes a more conservative approach. Directly before loading the
file, if the file with the same realpath has been required, the
loading of the file is skipped. The realpaths are stored as
fstrings in a hidden hash.
When rebuilding the loaded feature index, the hash of realpaths
is also rebuilt. I'm guessing this makes rebuilding process
slower, but I don think that is a hot path. In general, modifying
loaded features is only done when reloading, and that tends to be
in non-production environments.
Change test_require_with_loaded_features_pop test to use 30 threads
and 300 iterations, instead of 4 threads and 1000 iterations.
I saw only sporadic failures with 4/1000, but consistent failures
30/300 threads. These failures were due to the fact that the
concurrent deletions from $LOADED_FEATURES in other threads can
result in rb_ary_entry returning nil when rebuilding the loaded
features index.
To avoid concurrency issues when rebuilding the loaded features
index, the building of the index itself is left alone, and
afterwards, a separate loop is done on a copy of the loaded feature
snapshot in order to rebuild the realpaths hash.
Fixes [Bug #17885]
Instead of relying on setting an unsetting ruby_verbose, which is
not thread-safe, restructure require_internal and load_lock to
accept a warn argument for whether to warn, and add
rb_require_internal_silent to require without warnings. Use
rb_require_internal_silent when loading encoding.
Note this does not modify ruby_debug and errinfo handling, those
remain thread-unsafe.
Also silent requires when loading transcoders.

If $LOADED_FEATURES is changed in the just required file, also the
index table needs to be updated before loaded_features_snapshot is
reset. If the snapshot is reset without updating the table, the
name of the added feature will not be found.
When attempting to require a file without an extension that has
already been required or provided with an .so extension, only
look for files with an .rb extension. There is no point in
trying to find files with an .so extension, since we already
know one has been loaded.
Previously, attempting to require such a file scanned the load
path twice, once for .rb and once for .so. Now it only scans
once for .rb. The scan once for .rb cannot be avoided, since
the .rb file would take precedence and should be loaded if it
exists.
Fixes [Bug #10902]
When looking for libraries to load with a feature name without
extension, `.rb` files are given priority. However, since the
feature index arrays were not in that order of priority, but in
the order in which they were loaded, a lower priority extension
library might be returned. In that case, the `.rb` file had to be
searched for again from the `$LOAD_PATH`, resulting in poor
performance.
