When an object becomes "too complex" (in other words it has too many
variations in the shape tree), we transition it to use a "too complex"
shape and use a hash for storing instance variables.
Without this patch, there were rare cases where shape tree growth could
"explode" and cause performance degradation on what would otherwise have
been cached fast paths.
This patch puts a limit on shape tree growth, and gracefully degrades in
the rare case where there could be a factorial growth in the shape tree.
For example:
```ruby
class NG; end
HUGE_NUMBER.times do
NG.new.instance_variable_set(:"@unique_ivar_#{_1}", 1)
end
```
We consider objects to be "too complex" when the object's class has more
than SHAPE_MAX_VARIATIONS (currently 8) leaf nodes in the shape tree and
the object introduces a new variation (a new leaf node) associated with
that class.
For example, new variations on instances of the following class would be
considered "too complex" because those instances create more than 8
leaves in the shape tree:
```ruby
class Foo; end
9.times { Foo.new.instance_variable_set(":@uniq_#{_1}", 1) }
```
However, the following class is *not* too complex because it only has
one leaf in the shape tree:
```ruby
class Foo
def initialize
@a = @b = @c = @d = @e = @f = @g = @h = @i = nil
end
end
9.times { Foo.new }
``
This case is rare, so we don't expect this change to impact performance
of most applications, but it needs to be handled.

`USE_RUBY_DEBUG_LOG` was only defined when `RUBY_DEVEL` is defined.
This patch removes this dependency (`USE_RUBY_DEBUG_LOG` is defined
independently from `RUBY_DEVEL`).
Do not commit a patch which enables `USE_RUBY_DEBUG_LOG`.
accessing theap needs complicating synchronization but it reduce
performance on multi-ractor mode. So simply stop using theap
on multi-ractor mode. In future, theap should be replaced with
more cleaver memory strategy.
transient_heap_evacuate() evacuates all living objects from theap
to malloc mangaed memory. This evacuation can run in any ractors
in parallel with other ractor's execution and it is danger.
To stop such danger parallel execution, use rb_vm_barrier() to
stop all other ractors.
* `GC.auto_compact=`, `GC.auto_compact` can be used to control when
compaction runs. Setting `auto_compact=` to true will cause
compaction to occurr duing major collections. At the moment,
compaction adds significant overhead to major collections, so please
test first!
[Feature #17176]
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.
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).
Looking at gc.c, rb_aligned_malloc contains `return NULL;` so it
has to be taken care of. Note however that posix_memalign(3posix)
does _not_ set errno.
This changeset basically replaces `ruby_xmalloc(x * y)` into
`ruby_xmalloc2(x, y)`. Some convenient functions are also
provided for instance `rb_xmalloc_mul_add(x, y, z)` which allocates
x * y + z byes.
`transient_heap_evacuate()` disables GC using `rb_gc_disable()`
to prohibt GC invocation because of new allocation for evacuated
memory. However, `rb_gc_disable()` sweep all rest of unswept pages.
We don't need to cancel lazy sweep so this patch introduce
`rb_gc_disable_no_rest()` which doesn't cancel lazy sweep.
This header is poisoned to detect unintentional buffer overrun.
However in this (and forthcoming) function, we are intentionally
looking at the header. We have to unpoison before anything.
For some reason symbols (or classes) are being overridden in trunk

* internal.h: rename the following names:
* li_table -> ar_table. "li" means linear (from linear search),
but we use the word "array" (from data layout).
* RHASH_ARRAY -> RHASH_AR_TABLE. AR_TABLE is more clear.
* rb_hash_array_* -> rb_hash_ar_table_*.
* RHASH_TABLE_P() -> RHASH_ST_TABLE_P(). more clear.
* RHASH_CLEAR() -> RHASH_ST_CLEAR().
* hash.c: rename "linear_" prefix functions to "ar_" prefix.
* hash.c (linear_init_table): rename to ar_alloc_table.
* debug_counter.h: rename obj_hash_array to obj_hash_ar.

These APIs are much like <valgrind/memcheck.h>. Use them to
fine-grain annotate the usage of our memory.

No automatic type promotion is expected for variadic arguments.
You have to do it by hand.

* hash.c, internal.h: support theap for small Hash.
Introduce RHASH_ARRAY (li_table) besides st_table and small Hash
(<=8 entries) are managed by an array data structure.
This array data can be managed by theap.
If st_table is needed, then converting array data to st_table data.
For st_table using code, we prepare "stlike" APIs which accepts hash value
and are very similar to st_ APIs.
This work is based on the GSoC achievement

* variable.c: now instance variable space has theap supports.
obj_ivar_heap_alloc() tries to acquire memory from theap.
* debug_counter.h: add some counters for theap.

* transient_heap.c, transient_heap.h: implement TransientHeap (theap).
theap is designed for Ruby's object system. theap is like Eden heap
on generational GC terminology. theap allocation is very fast because
it only needs to bump up pointer and deallocation is also fast because
we don't do anything. However we need to evacuate (Copy GC terminology)
if theap memory is long-lived. Evacuation logic is needed for each type.
See [Bug #14858] for details.
* array.c: Now, theap for T_ARRAY is supported.
ary_heap_alloc() tries to allocate memory area from theap. If this trial
sccesses, this array has theap ptr and RARRAY_TRANSIENT_FLAG is turned on.
We don't need to free theap ptr.
* ruby.h: RARRAY_CONST_PTR() returns malloc'ed memory area. It menas that
if ary is allocated at theap, force evacuation to malloc'ed memory.
It makes programs slow, but very compatible with current code because
theap memory can be evacuated (theap memory will be recycled).
If you want to get transient heap ptr, use RARRAY_CONST_PTR_TRANSIENT()
instead of RARRAY_CONST_PTR(). If you can't understand when evacuation
will occur, use RARRAY_CONST_PTR().
