Issue #20309 has been reported by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA). ---------------------------------------- Feature #20309: Bundled gems for Ruby 3.5 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20309 * Author: hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) * Status: Assigned * Assignee: hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) ---------------------------------------- I propose migrate the following default gems to bundled gems at Ruby 3.5. So, It means users will get warnings if users try to load them. * ostruct * irb * reline * readline (wrapper file for readline-ext and reline) * io-console * logger * fiddle * pstore * open-uri * yaml (wrapper file for psych) * win32ole I have a plan to migrate the following default gems too. But I need to more feedback from other committers about them. * rdoc * We need to change build task like download rdoc gem before document generation. * or We make document generation is optional from Ruby 3.5 * We explicitly separate `make install` and `make install-doc` * un * `ruby -run` is one of cool feature of Ruby. Should we avoid uninstalling `un` gem? * singleton * This is famous design pattern. Should we enforce users add them to their Gemfile? * forwadable * `reline` needs to add forwardable their `runtime_dependency` after migration. * weakref * I'm not sure how impact after migrating bundled gems. * fcntl * Should we integrate these constants into ruby core? I would like to migrate `ipaddr` and `uri` too. But these are used by webrick that is mock server for our test suite. We need to rewrite `webrick` with `TCPSocker` or extract `ipaddr` and `uri` dependency from `webrick` Other default gems depend on our build process or other libraries deeply. I will update this proposal if I could extract them from default gems. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:117765] [Ruby master Feature#20470] Extract Ruby's Garbage Collector
by peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu) 29 Jan '25

Issue #20470 has been reported by peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu). ---------------------------------------- Feature #20470: Extract Ruby's Garbage Collector https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20470 * Author: peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- # Extract Ruby's Garbage Collector ## Background As described in [[Feature #20351]](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20351), we are working on the ability to plug alternative garbage collector implementations into Ruby. Our goal is to allow developers and researchers to create and experiment with new implementations of garbage collectors in Ruby in a simplified way. This will also allow experimentation with different GC implementations in production systems so users can choose the best GC implementation for their workloads. ## Implementation GitHub PR: [10721](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10721) In this patch, we have split the current `gc.c` file into two files: `gc.c` and `gc_impl.c`. `gc.c` now only contains code not specific to Ruby GC. This includes code to mark objects (which the GC implementation may choose not to use) and wrappers for internal APIs that the implementation may need to use (e.g. locking the VM). `gc_impl.c` now contains the implementation of Ruby's GC. This includes marking, sweeping, compaction, and statistics. Most importantly, `gc_impl.c` only uses public APIs in Ruby and a limited set of functions exposed in `gc.c`. This allows us to build `gc_impl.c` independently of Ruby and plug Ruby's GC into itself. ## Demonstration After [checking out the branch](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10721), we can first configure with `--with-shared-gc`: ```bash $ ./configure --with-shared-gc ... $ make -j ... ``` Let's now change the slot size of the GC to 64 bytes: ```bash $ sed -i 's/$#define BASE_SLOT_SIZE$.*/\1 64/' gc_impl.c ``` We can compile `gc_impl.c` independently using the following commands for clang or gcc (you may have to change the last `-I` to match your architecture and platform): ```bash $ clang -Iinclude -I. -I.ext/include/arm64-darwin23 -undefined dynamic_lookup -g -O3 -dynamiclib -o libgc.dylib gc_impl.c $ gcc -Iinclude -I. -I.ext/include/x86_64-linux -Wl,-undefined,dynamic_lookup -fPIC -g -O3 -shared -o libgc.so gc_impl.c ``` We can see that by default, the slot size is 40 bytes and objects are 40 bytes in size: ```bash $ ./ruby -e "puts GC.stat_heap(0, :slot_size)" 40 $ ./ruby -robjspace -e "puts ObjectSpace.dump(Object.new)" {"address":"0x1054a23f0", "type":"OBJECT", "shape_id":3, "slot_size":40, "class":"0x10528fd38", "embedded":true, "ivars":0, "memsize":40, "flags":{"wb_protected":true}} ``` We can now load our new GC using the `RUBY_GC_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable (note that you may have to change the path to the DSO): ```bash $ RUBY_GC_LIBRARY_PATH=./libgc.dylib ./ruby -e "puts GC.stat_heap(0, :slot_size)" 64 $ RUBY_GC_LIBRARY_PATH=./libgc.dylib ./ruby -robjspace -e "puts ObjectSpace.dump(Object.new)" {"address":"0x1038de440", "type":"OBJECT", "shape_id":3, "slot_size":64, "class":"0x10355fc00", "embedded":true, "ivars":0, "memsize":64, "flags":{"wb_protected":true}} ``` ## Benchmark Benchmarks were ran on commit [c78cebb](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/c78cebb469fe56b45ee5daad16ae97… on Ubuntu 22.04 using [yjit-bench](https://github.com/Shopify/yjit-bench/) on commit [cc5a76e](https://github.com/Shopify/yjit-bench/commit/cc5a76ef6240113650547….

Specifically, the set of APIs that the plug-in GC has to implement is relatively large, at around 70 functions. Additionally, some of these functions are specific to the current GC. We would like to emphasize that the API is NOT stable and is subject to change. We will be working on improving this API and reducing the surface area. This will be future work and we're not working on it in this phase. ## Future plans - Refactor and improve `gc_impl.c`. - Implement alternate GC implementations, such as the Epsilon GC and [MMTk](https://www.mmtk.io/) to prove that this API allows for alternate implementations of the GC. - Reduce and improve the API of the GC implementation. - Benchmark and improve performance of the DSO API. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:118879] [Ruby master Bug#20682] Slave PTY output is lost after a child process exits in macOS
by ono-max (Naoto Ono) 27 Jan '25

Issue #20682 has been reported by ono-max (Naoto Ono). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20682: Slave PTY output is lost after a child process exits in macOS https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20682 * Author: ono-max (Naoto Ono) * Status: Open * Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- According to Launchable, the following PTY tests are flaky only on macOS. https://app.launchableinc.com/organizations/ruby/workspaces/ruby/data/test-… https://app.launchableinc.com/organizations/ruby/workspaces/ruby/data/test-… https://app.launchableinc.com/organizations/ruby/workspaces/ruby/data/test-… https://app.launchableinc.com/organizations/ruby/workspaces/ruby/data/test-… It's because the slave PTY output is lost after a child process exits in macOS. Here is the code to reproduce the problem. When I remove `sleep 3` from the code, "a" is returned. ``` require 'pty' r, w, pid = PTY.spawn('ruby', '-e', 'puts "a"') sleep 3 puts r.gets #=> Returns nil ``` Based on my investigation, this issue happens in the macOS side and it's almost same as https://github.com/pexpect/pexpect/issues/662. The cause is described as follows in the ticket: > // NOTE[macOS-S_CTTYREF]: On macOS, after a forkpty(), if the pty slave (child) // is closed before the pty master (parent) reads, the pty's buffer is cleared // thus the master (parent) reads nothing. This can happen if the child exits // before the parent has a chance to call master.read(). // // This issue has been reported to Apple, but has not been resolved: // https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/663632 // // Work around this issue by opening /dev/tty then closing it. This ultimately // causes the child's exit() to flush the slave pty's output buffer in a // blocking way. This fixes the problem on macOS 13.2 in my testing. // // Here's how the workaround works in detail: // // If we open /dev/tty, it sets the S_CTTYREF flag on the process. This flag // remains set if we close the /dev/tty file descriptor. // https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/xnu/blob/aca3beaa3dfbd42498b42c5… // Additionally, opening /dev/tty retains a reference to the pty slave. // https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/xnu/blob/aca3beaa3dfbd42498b42c5… // // When the child process exits: // // 1. All open file descriptors (including stdin/stdout/stderr which are the pty // slave) are closed. This does *not* drain unread pty slave output. // * If S_CTTYREF was set, closing the file descriptors does not close the // last reference to the pty slave, so no cleanup happens yet. // * NOTE[macOS-pty-close-loss]: If S_CTTYREF was not set, closing the file // descriptors drops the last reference to the pty slave. Unread data is // dropped. // // 2. If the S_CTTYREF flag is set on the child process, the controlling // terminal (pty slave) is closed.

[ruby-core:115117] [Ruby master Bug#19967] Already installed libruby.dylib is used for test on macOS

Issue #19967 has been reported by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada). ---------------------------------------- Bug #19967: Already installed libruby.dylib is used for test on macOS https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19967 * Author: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) * Status: Assigned * Priority: Normal * Assignee: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) * Backport: 3.0: REQUIRED, 3.1: REQUIRED, 3.2: REQUIRED ---------------------------------------- On macOS, in the case of `--enable-shared` and `--disable-load-relative`, already install libruby.dylib is used during tests if exists. This is because since [Bug #14992], `DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH` is used instead of `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH`. The latter environment variable is used preferentially, whereas the former is used as a fallback, as the name implies. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
