[ruby-core:115912] [Ruby master Bug#20090] Anonymous arguments are now syntax errors in unambiguous cases

Issue #20090 has been reported by willcosgrove (Will Cosgrove). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20090: Anonymous arguments are now syntax errors in unambiguous cases https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20090 * Author: willcosgrove (Will Cosgrove) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.3.0 (2023-12-25 revision 5124f9ac75) [arm64-darwin23] * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- It looks like the changes that were made in #19370 may have gone further than intended. It's also possible I'm misunderstanding what decision was made. But it was my understanding that the goal was to make ambiguous cases a syntax error. The test cases added are all testing the ambiguous cases: ```rb assert_syntax_error("def b(&) ->(&) {c(&)} end", /anonymous block parameter is also used/) # ... assert_syntax_error("def b(*) ->(*) {c(*)} end", /anonymous rest parameter is also used/) assert_syntax_error("def b(a, *) ->(*) {c(1, *)} end", /anonymous rest parameter is also used/) assert_syntax_error("def b(*) ->(a, *) {c(*)} end", /anonymous rest parameter is also used/) # ... assert_syntax_error("def b(**) ->(**) {c(**)} end", /anonymous keyword rest parameter is also used/) assert_syntax_error("def b(k:, **) ->(**) {c(k: 1, **)} end", /anonymous keyword rest parameter is also used/) assert_syntax_error("def b(**) ->(k:, **) {c(**)} end", /anonymous keyword rest parameter is also used/) ``` However it is now also producing syntax errors in all of these cases: ```rb def b(&) -> { c(&) } end def b(*) -> { c(*) } end def b(a, *) -> { c(1, *) } end def b(*) ->(a) { c(a, *) } end def b(**) -> { c(**) } end def b(k:, **) -> { c(k: 1, **) } end def b(**) ->(k:) { c(k:, **) } end ``` Again, it's possible I misunderstood the scope of the previous change. But it would be sad to lose the unambiguous case, as I've used that pattern quite a bit in my own projects. This is my first time opening an issue here, so I apologize in advance if I've done anything non-standard. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:116356] [Ruby master Bug#20198] Threaded DNS resolver does not propagate errno to the calling thread

Issue #20198 has been reported by kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20198: Threaded DNS resolver does not propagate errno to the calling thread https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20198 * Author: kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- If we get a return value of `EAI_SYSTEM` from `getaddrinfo`, we transform that into an appropriate `Errno::` exception on the Ruby side. However, because we now run the actual call to `getaddrinfo` in a thread, we lose that `errno` value (because `errno` is thread-local). So, what we actually raise in case of `EAI_SYSTEM` is just the last error which happened on the calling thread - e.g. this `ECHILD` which presumably got set in the bowels of pthreads somewhere: ``` 1) Socket::IPSocket#getaddress raises an error on unknown hostnames ERROR Expected SocketError but got: Errno::ECHILD (No child processes - getaddrinfo) /home/runner/work/ruby/ruby/src/spec/ruby/library/socket/ipsocket/getaddress_spec.rb:22:in `getaddress' /home/runner/work/ruby/ruby/src/spec/ruby/library/socket/ipsocket/getaddress_spec.rb:22:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>' /home/runner/work/ruby/ruby/src/spec/ruby/library/socket/ipsocket/getaddress_spec.rb:21:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>' /home/runner/work/ruby/ruby/src/spec/ruby/library/socket/ipsocket/getaddress_spec.rb:4:in `<top (required)>' ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:117155] [Ruby master Feature#4247] New features for Array#sample, Array#choice
by mame (Yusuke Endoh) 14 Mar '24

14 Mar '24

Issue #4247 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh). Status changed from Assigned to Rejected Assignee deleted (mame (Yusuke Endoh)) We discussed this at the dev meeting. No one remembered the discussion from over 10 years ago, so we discussed it anew and concluded that this was a no-go. A naive API design could be `ary.sample(k, weights: [Float])`, but this would be an O(ary.size * k) time-consuming algorithm. There are many more efficient algorithms for weighted sampling. (We read Julia's [StatsBase.jl](https://juliastats.org/StatsBase.jl/stable/sampling/) and Python's [random](https://docs.python.org/3.13/library/random.html).) However, these require additional information, such as the sum of the weights, cumulative weight table, the need to build the table in advance, etc. We want to avoid an API design that only allows slow algorithm, but it seems overkill to introduce an API that allows advanced algorithms as a built-in feature. We concluded that it would be better to make a gem, instead of a built-in feature, for such things. ---------------------------------------- Feature #4247: New features for Array#sample, Array#choice https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/4247#change-107242 * Author: oj (Yoji Ojima) * Status: Rejected ---------------------------------------- =begin We are planning to add the following features of the random sampling to Array. 1. Weighted random sampling. 2. Sampling with replacement. 3. Iteration. It is discussed in ruby-dev (Feature #3647 and #4147). API will be: Array#sample([size, [opt]]) - Random selection without replacement. - Returns a new array when size is specified. - opt: weight: proc or array random: Random instance Array#choice([size, [opt]]) - Random selection with replacement. - Returns a new array when size is specified. - opt: same as above. Array#each_sample([opt]) - Random selection iterator without replacement. - Choose a random element and yield it. - Returns an Enumerator if a block is not given. - opt: same as above. Array#each_choice([opt]) - Random selection iterator with replacement. - Choose a random element and yield it. - Returns an Enumerator if a block is not given. - opt: same as above.

[ruby-core:116684] [Ruby master Feature#20261] Add symbol alternatives to '' and nil for IO line separators

[ruby-core:116987] [Ruby master Bug#20310] ASAN fake stacks need to be marked during GC for non-current execution context
by kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) 14 Mar '24

Issue #20310 has been reported by kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20310: ASAN fake stacks need to be marked during GC for non-current execution context https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20310 * Author: kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) * Status: Assigned * Assignee: kjtsanaktsidis (KJ Tsanaktsidis) * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- When ASAN (address sanitizer) is enabled, the compiler does not necessarily store all local variables on the real machine stack; instead, locals can be stored in per-frame heap allocated memory which ASAN uses to detect things like stack-use-after-return ("fake stacks"). A pointer to the fake stack is left on the real machine stack, so it's possible to discover these fake stacks during GC and mark locals stored there as well. At the moment, Ruby is currently marking these fake stacks for the current execution context which triggered GC, as part of `mark_current_machine_context`: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/fe0b704df5553bdd59e90650ffbbfac785a2e48a/…. However, there are other machine stacks which also need to be marked like this: * Machine stacks for other threads which did not trigger GC are marked in `rb_execution_context_mark` here: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/fe0b704df5553bdd59e90650ffbbfac785a2e48a/… * Machine stacks for fibers are marked in `cont_mark` here: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/fe0b704df5553bdd59e90650ffbbfac785a2e48a/… We need to make these two kinds of stacks perform the same ASAN fake stack marking as `mark_current_machine_context` does. (P.S. - `callcc` continuations are another kind of machine stack which get marked, but ASAN is not compatible with callcc, so this doesn't really matter). (P.S. - it appears to me that the currently-switched-to fiber will have its stack marked _twice_; once in `rb_execution_context_mark` or `mark_current_machine_context, and once in `cont_mark`; if this is true, I will fix this too) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:116963] [Ruby master Feature#20306] Add rb_free_at_exit_p

Issue #20306 has been reported by peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu). ---------------------------------------- Feature #20306: Add rb_free_at_exit_p https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20306 * Author: peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- GitHub PR: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10104 From ticket [#20290](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20290#note-6), I found that C extensions could use ruby_vm_at_exit to register hooks to free memory at shutdown. However, they cannot determine whether they should free all memory during shutdown to mirror the behavior of Ruby when RUBY_FREE_AT_EXIT is set. This ticket proposes a new API called rb_free_at_exit_p that returns true when RUBY_FREE_AT_EXIT is set, and false otherwise. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:116909] [Ruby master Feature#20293] Add `Warning.categories` method that returns the warning category names
by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) 14 Mar '24

Issue #20293 has been reported by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada). ---------------------------------------- Feature #20293: Add `Warning.categories` method that returns the warning category names https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20293 * Author: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- I propose a new method `Warning.categories`. This would be useful (or necessary) for tests mainly. Currently, `EnvUtil.capture_global_values` saves the original warning settings as followings: ```ruby @original_warning = defined?(Warning.[]) ? %i[deprecated experimental].to_h {|i| [i, Warning[i]]} : nil ``` But this is wrong now; `performance` is missing. So we need: ```ruby @original_warning = if defined?(Warning.[]) # 2.7+ %i[deprecated experimental performance].to_h do |i| [i, begin Warning[i]; rescue ArgumentError; end] end.compact end ``` That means this list is version dependent and we will need to maintain this list in future. We need another surefire way. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
