[ruby-core:114403] [Ruby master Feature#19840] [Proposal] Expand Find pattern to Multiple Find

Issue #19840 has been reported by FlickGradley (Nick Bradley). ---------------------------------------- Feature #19840: [Proposal] Expand Find pattern to Multiple Find https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19840 * Author: FlickGradley (Nick Bradley) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- Hello! I love Ruby's pattern matching features. I would like to propose an expansion of the Find pattern which allows the selection of multiple matching elements of an array. I often find myself dealing with data like this: ``` ruby { results: [{ id: 1, name: "foo" }, { id: 2, name: "bar" }, ... ] } ``` My problem is that I need to retrieve all the `id` values from the nested array of hashes, and I don't know how many there will be in advance. It seems that the Find pattern could be expanded from allowing `pattern` (matching a single element) to `*pattern`. Examples: ``` ruby # Base case case { results: [{ id: 1, name: "foo" }, { id: 2, name: "bar" }] } in results: [*{ id: ids }] "matched: #{ids}" else "not matched" end #=> matched: [1, 2] # With * at the end (rest of args) - same result case { results: [{ id: 1, name: "foo" }, { id: 2, name: "bar" }] } in results: [*{ id: ids }, *] "matched: #{ids}" else "not matched" end #=> matched: [1, 2] # When one element doesn't match and there is no *rest case { results: [{ name: "foo" }, { id: 2, name: "bar" }] } in results: [*{ id: ids }] "matched: #{ids}" else "not matched" end #=> not matched ``` Similarly, `*Constant` could work to pull out types with an As pattern: ``` ruby case [1, 2, 3, "string"] in *Integer => nums, * "matched: #{nums}" else "not matched" end #=> matched: [1, 2, 3] ``` Other patterns would work in the same way. Essentially, this expands the concept of `*` in pattern matching to mean "a variable number of `things matching subpattern`". Today, the only pattern supported by `*` is a variable binding - but it could be any of the other subpatterns as well. This proposal does imply that this would work: ``` ruby a = 2 [1, 2, 2, 3] in [*, *^a, *] #=> true ``` To me, the `*` represents the variable number of matches, so the syntax makes intuitive sense. But others may have different opinions about `*^` being adjacent. It may also imply this would work, though we could restrict the number of non-variable patterns (in other words, patterns that have the possibility of not matching) to 1 per Array so that this isn't possible.. I'm not sure something like this would be useful or clear. ``` ruby a = 2 [1, 2, "hello", "ruby"] in [*Integer, *String] #=> true ``` This feature feels like the missing piece of the Find pattern to me - I often want to "Find Multiple". If others agree, I would be happy to contribute by working on this feature and creating a pull request. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:115911] [Ruby master Bug#20089] Fiber#kill transfers to root fiber

Issue #20089 has been reported by rmosolgo (Robert Mosolgo). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20089: Fiber#kill transfers to root fiber https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20089 * Author: rmosolgo (Robert Mosolgo) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.3.0 (2023-12-25 revision 5124f9ac75) [x86_64-darwin22] * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- I was hoping to use `Fiber#kill` to clean up formerly `.transfer`-d Fibers and work around https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20081, but I found that `Fiber#kill` has a similar control flow jump behavior. Is this on purpose, or a bug? Here's a script to test the behavior: ```ruby manager = Fiber.new do worker = Fiber.new do puts "2. Begin Worker" manager.transfer puts "This should never print -- killed" end puts "1. Transfer to Worker" worker.transfer puts "3. Killing Worker" worker.kill puts "4. Finished manager" end manager.transfer puts "5. Finished script" ``` I expected items `1` through `5` to be printed in order, but in fact, `4` is never printed: ``` $ ruby fiber_transfer_test.rb 1. Transfer to Worker 2. Begin Worker 3. Killing Worker 5. Finished script ``` It seems like `worker.kill` is transferring control to the top-level fiber instead of giving it back to `manager`. I also tried having the thread kill _itself_, hoping it would return to the fiber that originally `.transfer`ed to it, but it also seems to jump out: ```ruby manager = Fiber.new do worker = Fiber.new do puts "2. Begin Worker" manager.transfer Fiber.current.kill puts "This should never print -- killed" end puts "1. Transfer to Worker" worker.transfer puts "3. Killing Worker" worker.transfer puts "4. Finished manager" end manager.transfer puts "5. Finished script" ``` Prints: ``` 1. Transfer to Worker 2. Begin Worker 3. Killing Worker 5. Finished script ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:115649] [Ruby master Bug#20050] Segfault on Ruby 3.2.2 on x86_64 Darwin 20 (maybe in Array#hash)

Issue #20050 has been reported by martinemde (Martin Emde). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20050: Segfault on Ruby 3.2.2 on x86_64 Darwin 20 (maybe in Array#hash) https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20050 * Author: martinemde (Martin Emde) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.2.2 (2023-03-30 revision e51014f9c0) [x86_64-darwin20] * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Hi, In the rubygems & bundler repositories we've now had two segfaults in the same exact code within days of merging a change to that code, both on ruby 3.2.2 on darwin20. 1. https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/actions/runs/7110489973/job/1935706778… 2. https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/actions/runs/7131889001/job/1942130416… The specific error seems to happen when calculating the hash of the array in Gem::NameTuple#hash. The array contents that is being `.hash`ed both times should be exactly: `["has_metadata", "1.0", "ruby"]`. If I'm reading this correctly, this indicates that the crash is related either to creating this hash or storing this hash in the hash table (I'm not quite sure which is triggering the crash). An excerpt of the C backtrace shows the same backtrace for both crashes: ``` -- C level backtrace information ------------------------------------------- /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(rb_vm_bugreport+0x7c4) [0x10cb0f994] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(rb_bug_for_fatal_signal+0x1d0) [0x10c9158c0] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(sigsegv+0x5b) [0x10ca609ab] /usr/lib/system/libsystem_platform.dylib(_sigtramp+0x1d) [0x7ff810c14dfd] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(rb_id_table_lookup+0x16) [0x10caa2a56] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(callable_method_entry_or_negative+0x5e) [0x10cae9c8e] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(rb_check_funcall_basic_kw+0x129) [0x10caf0039] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(obj_any_hash+0x3c) [0x10c94bd2c] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(any_hash+0x52) [0x10c94bc12] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(rb_st_add_direct+0x1d) [0x10ca69b7d] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(ar_try_convert_table+0x85) [0x10c94d015] /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/Ruby/3.2.2/x64/lib/libruby.3.2.dylib(rb_hash_aset+0x18f) [0x10c94e26f] ``` I'm not sure how to follow this instruction in this case on GitHub actions: "Don't forget to include the Crash Report log file under DiagnosticReports directory in bug reports." I have not been able to reproduce this locally with the same version of ruby (but I'm on darwin22 instead of 20). I will follow up if we continue to see this same crash. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #20102 has been reported by ioquatix (Samuel Williams). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20102: Introduce `Fiber#resuming?` https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20102 * Author: ioquatix (Samuel Williams) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: ioquatix (Samuel Williams) * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- There are some tricky edge cases when using `Fibre#raise` and `Fiber#kill`, e.g. ```ruby fiber = nil killer = Fiber.new do fiber.raise("Stop") end fiber = Fiber.new do killer.resume end fiber.resume # 4:in `raise': attempt to raise a resuming fiber (FiberError) # 4:in `block in <main>' ``` Async has to deal with this edge case explicitly by rescuing the exception: https://github.com/socketry/async/blob/ffd019d9c1d547926a28fe8f36bf7bfe91d8… I'd like to avoid doing that and instead just ask "Can I kill/raise on this fiber right now?" which is determined by whether the fiber itself can be resumed or transferred to. To address this, I'd like to introduce `Fiber#resuming?`: ```c /* * call-seq: fiber.resumed? -> true or false * * Whether the fiber is currently resumed. */ VALUE rb_fiber_resuming_p(VALUE fiber_value) { struct rb_fiber_struct *fiber = fiber_ptr(fiber_value); if (FIBER_TERMINATED_P(fiber)) return RUBY_Qfalse; return RBOOL(fiber->resuming_fiber); } ``` See the PR: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/9382 -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:113782] [Ruby master Bug#19716] SystemStackError occurs too easily on Alpine Linux (due to small stack size reported by pthread_attr_getstacksize on musl libc)

Issue #19716 has been reported by alexdowad (Alex Dowad). ---------------------------------------- Bug #19716: SystemStackError occurs too easily on Alpine Linux (due to small stack size reported by pthread_attr_getstacksize on musl libc) https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19716 * Author: alexdowad (Alex Dowad) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.1.4p223 (2023-03-30 revision 957bb7cb81) [x86_64-linux-musl] * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- This is the same problem previously reported against Ruby 2.5 in https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14387. I just ran into the same problem on Ruby 3.1.4, built on Alpine Linux 3.16. @hsbt stated in the previous thread (https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14387#note-28) > If you have this issue with Ruby 3.2, please file it with another issue. I hacked `stack_check` in gc.c to print the values of `STACK_START` and `STACK_END` on stack overflow; on the Alpine 3.16 host where this problem just occurred, the values printed were: > Start=0x7ffd0bf4f000, End=0x7ffd0bf32530 ...which shows that Ruby thinks the stack size is only 131072 bytes. On the other hand, `ulimit -s` shows a stack size limit of 8192kb. This Ruby 3.1.4 was built from unmodified source code downloaded from https://cache.ruby-lang.org; the build was configured using `CFLAGS='-march=native' ./configure --disable-install-doc`. The invocation of Ruby which blew the stack was `bundle exec rake db:migrate`, on a mid-sized Rails project. Regarding @ncopa's patch from #14387, @wanabe listed some things which should be done before it is merged into mainline Ruby: > Okay, The patch needs one or more proofs of its behaviour, like that: > > Original issue [ruby-dev:50421] has gone away. > Standard test codes run well. > test-all > ruby/spec > getrlimit works on some situations like: > on single thread > with multiple threads > with RLIMIT_STACK environment variable > getrlimit code of musl is implemented correctly as expected. > (But It's doubtful whether it can be. I guess that a proof of code soundness is very difficult.) > Some "real world" applications can work. > I think it is better example that that application(s) can't work without the patch. I am happy to help cover some of these points if the Ruby development team is still interested in merging @ncopa's patch. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
