Issue #19326 has been reported by sdwolfz (Codruț Gușoi). ---------------------------------------- Feature #19326: Please add a better API for passing a Proc to a Ractor https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19326 * Author: sdwolfz (Codruț Gușoi) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- Example 1: ```ruby class Worker def initialize(&block) @block = block end def run Ractor.new(@block, &:call) end end worker = Worker.new { 1 } puts worker.run.take ``` Errors with: ``` <internal:ractor>:271:in `new': allocator undefined for Proc (TypeError) from scripts/run.rb:9:in `run' from scripts/run.rb:14:in `<main>' ``` Example 2: ```ruby class Worker def initialize(&block) @block = Ractor.make_shareable(block) end def run Ractor.new(@block, &:call) end end worker = Worker.new { 1 } puts worker.run.take ``` Errors with: ``` <internal:ractor>:820:in `make_shareable': Proc's self is not shareable: #<Proc:0x00007f00394c38b8 scripts/run.rb:13> (Ractor::IsolationError) from scripts/run.rb:5:in `initialize' from scripts/run.rb:13:in `new' from scripts/run.rb:13:in `<main>' ``` Example 3: ```ruby class Worker def initialize(&block) @block = Ractor.make_shareable(block) end def run Ractor.new(@block, &:call) end end worker = Ractor.current.instance_eval { Worker.new { 1 } } puts worker.run.take ``` Works, but having `Ractor.current.instance_eval` as a wrapper around the block is not ideal, as Ractor is supposed to be only an implementation detail in Worker. I know about https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18243 and the discussion around `proc.bind(nil)`. That would actually be ideal, as for the purposes if why I want this functionality I don't care what `self` is in a block, and the less it has access to the better. The general idea is to have a Ractor be able to lazily execute an arbitrary proc. And all the bindings it would need would be passed explicitly, either through `args` in the constructor or through `send`/`receive`, so `self` would really not matter. The benefit: this would make it so concurrent code can be more easily be implemented with Ractors as currently you can execute an arbitrary proc by passing it to a Thread (but you don't get the nice data isolation). -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:113180] [Ruby master Feature#19588] Allow Comparable#clamp(min, max) to accept nil as a specification

Issue #19588 has been reported by kyanagi (Kouhei Yanagita). ---------------------------------------- Feature #19588: Allow Comparable#clamp(min, max) to accept nil as a specification https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19588 * Author: kyanagi (Kouhei Yanagita) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- `Comparable#clamp(min, max)` (with two arguments) accepts `nil`. This behaves the same as beginless/endless Range. ~~~ruby 5.clamp(nil, 0) # => 0 5.clamp(10, nil) # => 10 5.clamp(..0) # => 0 5.clamp(10..) # => 10 ~~~ This behavior is not documented. Presumably, this was not introduced intentionally. The old Rubies did not accept accept a `Range` argument. In Ruby 2.7, accepting `Range` as an argument was introduced. At that time, the approach of passing `nil` as a two-argument method was also discussed but not adopted, and using Range was chosen instead. https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14784 However, in Ruby 3.0, the behavior of `clamp` has changed to accept `nil`. This change is not documented in the NEWS or the documentation for `clamp`, and I believe that it was not an intentional change. ~~~ % docker run -it --rm rubylang/all-ruby env ALL_RUBY_SINCE=ruby-2.4.0 ./all-ruby -e "p 5.clamp(0, nil)" ruby-2.4.0 -e:1:in `clamp': comparison of Integer with nil failed (ArgumentError) from -e:1:in `<main>' exit 1 ... ruby-2.7.8 -e:1:in `clamp': comparison of Integer with nil failed (ArgumentError) from -e:1:in `<main>' exit 1 ruby-3.0.0-preview1 5 ... ruby-3.2.2 5 ~~~ It seems that https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/a93da4970be44a473b7b42e7516eb2663dece2c3 brought about this change. How about making the current behavior a specification? It has been three years since the behavior changed, and I don't see much point in prohibiting `nil` now. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #19362 has been reported by zverok (Victor Shepelev). ---------------------------------------- Bug #19362: #dup on Proc doesn't call initialize_dup https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19362 * Author: zverok (Victor Shepelev) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Backport: 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- In #17545, `#dup` had changed to create an instance of the subclass. It, though, doesn't invoke `initialize_dup` of the subclass, unlike other standard classes. ```ruby class MyAry < Array def initialize_dup(...) p(self.class, ...) super end end class MyString < String def initialize_dup(...) p(self.class, ...) super end end class MyProc < Proc def initialize_dup(...) p(self.class, ...) super end end MyString.new('test').dup # prints MyString, "test" MyAry.new(['test']).dup # prints MyAry, ["test"] MyProc.new { 'test' }.dup # doesn't print anything ``` This makes the change in #17545 useless: while inheriting from core classes is indeed marginal, one of author's intention might be carrying additional information with the Proc instance, and bypassing `#initialize_dup` makes it impossible to maintain this information. It seems that actually `#initialize_dup` is also invoked on the core classes themselves, but ignored on `Proc`. ```ruby class Array def initialize_dup(...) p(self.class, ...) super end end class String def initialize_dup(...) p(self.class, ...) super end end class Proc def initialize_dup(...) p(self.class, ...) super end end 'test'.dup # prints String, "test" ['test'].dup # prints Array, ["test"] Proc.new { 'test' }.dup # doesn't print anything ``` Which is an even more marginal problem but still an inconsistency. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:112944] [Ruby master Feature#19541] Proposal: Generate frame unwinding info for YJIT code
by kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) 19 Oct '23

19 Oct '23

Issue #19541 has been reported by kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis). ---------------------------------------- Feature #19541: Proposal: Generate frame unwinding info for YJIT code https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19541 * Author: kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- ## What is being propsed? Currently, Ruby crashes with yjit generated code on the stack, `rb_print_backtrace()` is unable to actually show any frames underneath the yjit code. For example, if you send SIGSEGV to a Ruby process running yjit, this is what you see: ``` /ruby/miniruby(rb_print_backtrace+0xc) [0xaaaad0276884] /ruby/vm_dump.c:785 /ruby/miniruby(rb_vm_bugreport) /ruby/vm_dump.c:1093 /ruby/miniruby(rb_bug_for_fatal_signal+0xd0) [0xaaaad0075580] /ruby/error.c:813 /ruby/miniruby(sigsegv+0x5c) [0xaaaad01bedac] /ruby/signal.c:919 linux-vdso.so.1(__kernel_rt_sigreturn+0x0) [0xffff91a3e8bc] /ruby/miniruby(map<(usize, yjit::backend::ir::Insn), (usize, yjit::backend::ir::Insn), yjit::backend::ir::{impl#17}::next_mapped::{closure_env#0}>+0x8c) [0xaaaad03b8b00] /rustc/897e37553bba8b42751c67658967889d11ecd120/library/core/src/option.rs:929 /ruby/miniruby(next_mapped+0x3c) [0xaaaad0291dc0] src/backend/ir.rs:1225 /ruby/miniruby(arm64_split+0x114) [0xaaaad0287744] src/backend/arm64/mod.rs:359 /ruby/miniruby(compile_with_regs+0x80) [0xaaaad028bf84] src/backend/arm64/mod.rs:1106 /ruby/miniruby(compile+0xc4) [0xaaaad0291ae0] src/backend/ir.rs:1158 /ruby/miniruby(gen_single_block+0xe44) [0xaaaad02b1f88] src/codegen.rs:854 /ruby/miniruby(gen_block_series_body+0x9c) [0xaaaad03b0250] src/core.rs:1698 /ruby/miniruby(gen_block_series+0x50) [0xaaaad03b0100] src/core.rs:1676 /ruby/miniruby(branch_stub_hit_body+0x80c) [0xaaaad03b1f68] src/core.rs:2021 /ruby/miniruby({closure#0}+0x28) [0xaaaad02eb86c] src/core.rs:1924 /ruby/miniruby(do_call<yjit::core::branch_stub_hit::{closure_env#0}, *const u8>+0x98) [0xaaaad035ba3c] /rustc/897e37553bba8b42751c67658967889d11ecd120/library/std/src/panicking.rs:492 [0xaaaad035c9b4] ``` (n.b. - I compiled Ruby with `-fasynchronous-unwind-tables –rdynamic –g` in cflags to make sure gcc generates appropriate unwind info & keeps the symbol tables). Likewise, if you attach gdb to a Ruby process with yjit enabled, gdb can't show thread backtraces through yjit-generated code either. My proposal is that YJIT generate sufficient unwinding and debug information on all platforms to allow both `rb_print_backtrace()` and the platform's debugger (gdb/lldb/WinDbg) to show: * Full stack traces all the way back to `main`. That is, it should be possible to see frames _underneath_ `[0xaaaad035c9b4]` from the backtrace above. * Names for the dynamically generated yjit blocks (e.g. instead of `[0xaaaad035c9b4]`, we should see something like `yjit$$name_of_ruby_method`, where `name_of_ruby_method` is the `label` for the iseq this is JIT'd code for). ## Motivation I have a few motivations for wanting this. Firstly, I feel this functionality is independently useful. When Ruby crashes, the more information we can get, the more likely we are to find the root cause. Likewise, the same principle applies to debugging with gdb - you can get a fuller understanding of what the process is doing if you see the whole stack. I have often found attaching gdb to the Ruby interpreter helps in understanding problems in Ruby code or C extensions and is something I do relatively frequently; yjit breaking that will definitely be inconvenient for me! ## Implementation I have a draft implementation here on how I'd implement this: . It's currently missing tests & platform support (it only works on Linux aarch64). Also, it implements unwind info generation, so unwinding can work _through_ yjit code, but it does not currently emit symbols to give _names_ to those yjit frames. My PR contains a document which explains how the Linux interfaces for registering unwind info for JIT'd code work, so I won't duplicate that information here. The biggest implementation question I had is around the use of Rust crates. Currently, I prototyped my implementation using the gimli & object crates, for generating DWARF info and ELF binaries. However, the yjit build does purposefully does not use cargo & external crates for release builds. There are a few different ways we could go here: * Don't use the gimli & object crates; instead, re-implement all debug info & object file generation code in yjit. * Don't use the crates; instead, link againt C libraries to provide this functionality & call them from Rust (perhaps some combination of libelf, libdw, libbfd, or llvm might do what we need) * Use cargo after all for the release build & download the crates at build-time * Use cargo for the release build, but vendor everything, so the build doesn't need to download anything * Only make unwind info generation available in dev mode where cargo is used, and so mark the gimli/object dependencies as optional in Cargo.toml. We'd need to decide on one of these approaches for this proposal to work. I don't really have a strong sense of the pros/cons of each. (Side note - my PR actually depends on a _fork_ of gimli - I've been discussing adding the needed interfaces upstream here: https://github.com/gimli-rs/gimli/issues/648) ## Benchmarks I ran the yit-bench suite on my branch and compared it to Ruby master: * My branch: https://gist.github.com/KJTsanaktsidis/5741a9f64e5cd75cdf5fedd846091a4f * Ruby master: https://gist.github.com/KJTsanaktsidis/592d3ebcf98f6745dfa3efbd30a25acf This is a (very simple) comparison: ``` -------------- ------------ ------------ --------------- bench yjit (ms) branch (ms) branch/yjit (%) activerecord 97.5 98.5 101.03% hexapdf 2415.3 2458.2 101.78% liquid-c 61.9 63.1 101.94% liquid-render 135.3 135.0 99.78% mail 104.6 105.5 100.86% psych-load 1887.1 1922.0 101.85% railsbench 1544.4 1556.0 100.75% ruby-lsp 88.4 89.5 101.24% sequel 147.5 151.1 102.44% binarytrees 303 305.6 100.86% chunky_png 1075.8 1079.4 100.33% erubi 392.9 392.3 99.85% erubi_rails 14.7 14.7 100.00% etanni 792.3 791.4 99.89% fannkuchredux 3815.9 3813.6 99.94% lee 1030.2 1039.2 100.87% nbody 49.2 49.3 100.20% optcarrot 4142 4143.3 100.03% ruby-json 2860.7 2874.0 100.46% rubykon 7906.6 7904.2 99.97% 30k_ifelse 348.7 345.4 99.05% 30k_methods 828.6 831.8 100.39% cfunc_itself 28.8 28.9 100.35% fib 34.4 34.5 100.29% getivar 115.5 109.7 94.98% keyword_args 37.7 38.0 100.80% respond_to 26 26.1 100.38% setivar 33.8 33.5 99.11% setivar_object 208.7 194.3 93.10% str_concat 52.6 52.2 99.24% throw 23.8 24.1 101.26% -------------- ------------ ------------ --------------- ``` It seems like the performance impact of generating and registering the debug info is marginal. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:112326] [Ruby master Feature#19430] Contribution wanted: DNS lookup by c-ares library
by mame (Yusuke Endoh) 19 Oct '23

19 Oct '23

Issue #19430 has been reported by mame (Yusuke Endoh). ---------------------------------------- Feature #19430: Contribution wanted: DNS lookup by c-ares library https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19430 * Author: mame (Yusuke Endoh) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal ---------------------------------------- ## Problem At the present time, Ruby uses `getaddrinfo(3)` to resolve names. Because this function is synchronous, we cannot interrupt the thread performing name resolution until the DNS server returns a response. We can see this behavior by setting blackhole.webpagetest.org (72.66.115.13) as a DNS server, which swallows all packets, and resolving any name: ``` # cat /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 72.66.115.13 # ./local/bin/ruby -rsocket -e 'Addrinfo.getaddrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", 80)' ^C^C^C^C ``` As we see, Ctrl+C does not stop ruby. The current workaround that users can take is to do name resolution in a Ruby thread. ```ruby Thread.new { Addrinfo.getaddrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", 80) }.value ``` The thread that calls this code is interruptible. (Note that the newly created thread itself will be stuck until the DNS lookup exceeds the time out.) ## Proposal We can solve this problem by using c-ares, which is an asynchronous name resolver, as a backend of `Addrinfo.getaddrinfo`, etc. (@sorah told me about this library, thanks!) https://c-ares.org/ I have created a PoC patch. https://github.com/mame/ruby/commit/547806146993bbc25984011d423dcc0f913b211c By applying this patch, we can interrupt `Addrinfo.getaddrinfo` by Ctrl+C. ``` # cat /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 72.66.115.13 # ./local/bin/ruby -rsocket -e 'Addrinfo.getaddrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", 80)' ^C-e:1:in `getaddrinfo': Interrupt from -e:1:in `<main>' ``` ## Discussion ### About c-ares According to the site of c-ares, some major tools including libcurl, Wireshark, and Apache Arrow are already using c-ares. In the language interpreter, node.js seems to be using c-ares. I am honestly not sure about the compatibility of c-ares with `getaddrinfo(3)`. I guess there is no major incompatibility because I have not experienced any name resolution problem of curl. @akr (who is the author and maintainer of Ruby's socket library) suggested to check if OS-specific name resolution, e.g., WINS on Windows, NIS on Solaris, etc., is supported. He also said that it may be acceptable even if they are not supported. Whether to bundle c-ares source code with ruby would require further discussion. If this proposal is accepted, then c-ares will become a de facto essential dependency for practical use, like gmp, in my opinion. Incidentally, node.js bundles c-ares: https://github.com/nodejs/node/tree/main/deps/cares ### Alternative approaches Recent glibc provides `getaddrinfo_a(3)` which performs asynchronous name resolution. However, this function has a fatal problem of being incompatible with `fork(2)`, which is heavily used in the Ruby ecosystem. In fact, the attempt to use `getaddrinfo_a(3)` (#17134) has been revert because it fails rails tests. (#17220) Another alternative is to have a worker pthread inside Ruby that calls getaddrinfo(3). Instead of calling getaddrinfo(3) directly, `Addrinfo.getaddrinfo` would ask the worker to resolve a name and wait for a response. This method should be able to implement cancellation. (Simply put, this means reimplementation of getaddrinfo_a(3) on our own, taking into account of `fork(2).) This has the advantages: not adding dependencies on external libraries and not having compatibility issues with `getaddrinfo(3)`. However, it is considerably more difficult to implement and maintain. An internal pthread may have a non-trivial impact on the execution efficiency and memory usage. Also, we may need to implement a mechanism to dynamically change the number of workers depending on the load. It would be ideal if we could try and evaluate both approaches. But my current impression is that using c-ares is the quickest and best compromise. ## Contribution wanted I have made it up to the PoC, but don't have much time to complete this. @naruse suggested me to create a ticket asking for contributions. Is anyone interested in this? * This patch changes `rsock_getaddrinfo` to accept a timeout argument. There are several places where Qnil is passed as a timeout (where I add `// TODO` in the PoC). We need to consider what timeout we should pass. * This cares only `getaddrinfo`, but we also need to care `getnameinfo` (and something else if any). There may be some issues I'm not aware of. * I have not yet tested this PoC seriously. It would be great if we could evaluate it with some real apps. Also, it would be great to hear from someone who knows more about c-ares. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #19624 has been reported by pineman (João Pinheiro). ---------------------------------------- Bug #19624: Backticks - IO object leakage https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19624 * Author: pineman (João Pinheiro) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.2.2 (2023-03-30 revision e51014f9c0) [arm64-darwin22] * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Hi, This code works on ruby 3.0.6: ```ruby `echo` ObjectSpace.each_object(IO) do |io| if ![STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR].include?(io) io.close end end ``` but raises `IOError` on 3.2.2: ``` minimal-repro-case.rb:8:in `close': uninitialized stream (IOError) ``` I found it started failing on ruby 3.1.0 and after, on macOS and Linux. This code is useful for closing unneeded IO objects in forked processes. It looks like backticks is 'leaking' IO objects, waiting for GC, and it didn't used to in 3.1.0. In ruby 3.1.0, inside `rb_f_backquote`, `rb_gc_force_recycle` was removed in favor of `RB_GC_GUARD`. I wonder if this has something to do with the problem. Is this code incorrect since ruby 3.1.0 or is it a bug in ruby? Thanks. ---Files-------------------------------- minimal-repro-case.rb (109 Bytes) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #19297 has been reported by vo.x (Vit Ondruch). ---------------------------------------- Bug #19297: Don't download content from internet to execute Ruby test suite https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19297 * Author: vo.x (Vit Ondruch) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.2.0 (2022-12-25 revision a528908271) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Trying to build Ruby 3.2.0 for Fedora and execute its test suite via `make check` as we always did [1], the test suite suddenly fails (while it was working with commit:git|c5eefb7f37): ~~~ ... snip ... C-API Util function ruby_strtod - converts a string to a double and returns the remaining string - returns 0 and the full string if there's no numerical value Finished in 45.737677 seconds 3827 files, 31635 examples, 177877 expectations, 0 failures, 0 errors, 0 tagged ./miniruby -I/builddir/build/BUILD/ruby-3.2.0/lib -I. -I.ext/common /builddir/build/BUILD/ruby-3.2.0/tool/runruby.rb --extout=.ext -- --disable-gems -C "/builddir/build/BUILD/ruby-3.2.0" bin/gem install --no-document \ --install-dir .bundle --conservative "bundler" "rake" "rspec:~> 3" #"ruby-prof" ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'bundler' (>= 0), here is why: Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - SocketError: Failed to open TCP connection to rubygems.org:443 (getaddrinfo: Temporary failure in name resolution) (https://rubygems.org/specs.4.8.gz) ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'rspec' (~> 3), here is why: Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - SocketError: Failed to open TCP connection to rubygems.org:443 (getaddrinfo: Temporary failure in name resolution) (https://rubygems.org/specs.4.8.gz) make: Leaving directory '/builddir/build/BUILD/ruby-3.2.0/redhat-linux-build' make: *** [uncommon.mk:1464: yes-test-syntax-suggest-prepare] Error 2 ~~~ This is obviously due to the test suite trying to download `rspec` from the internet, while Fedora builders does not have internet access (and won't ever have for security reasons). If I am not mistaken, this is caused by commit:git|cae53842735237ccf71a13873fd0d1ae7f165582. Now 1) Can this be fixed? 2) Can the tarball be always self contained?
