Issue #20853 has been reported by keelerm84 (Matthew Keeler). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20853: Hash key retrieval after Process.warmup https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20853 * Author: keelerm84 (Matthew Keeler) * Status: Open * ruby -v: ruby 3.3.5 (2024-09-03 revision ef084cc8f4) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- This was first reported as an issue against the [LaunchDarkly SDK](https://github.com/launchdarkly/ruby-server-sdk/issues/282) and [Sidekiq SDKs](https://github.com/sidekiq/sidekiq/issues/6279) as an issue in Ruby 3.3.1. I can still in Ruby 3.3.5. **Overview of behavior** The LaunchDarkly SDK maintains a hash of feature and segment information. This hash is indexed by 2 keys which are themselves hashes. They are defined as: ``` FEATURES = { namespace: "features", priority: 1, get_dependency_keys: lambda { |flag| (flag[:prerequisites] || []).map { |p| p[:key] } }, }.freeze SEGMENTS = { namespace: "segments", priority: 0, }.freeze ``` When running the attached script, we often see an error indicating that the flag is not found. If you comment out the `Process.warmup` line, this error will go away. The `require 'active_support/all'` directive is not strictly necessary. Including it causes the failure to more frequently occur, presumably due to the increase work in the warmup phase. **Hash key and access** When debugging the LaunchDarkly code, I noticed some odd behavior. Even though the hash seems populated, the FEATURES key could not index into it correctly. Below is a bit of code, modified from the SDK, to show how we are trying to interact with the hash. The puts are added to clarify the issue. ```ruby def get(kind, key) @lock.with_read_lock do @items.keys.each do |k| puts "##### Does #{kind[:namespace]} match the key #{k}? #{k == kind} #{k.eql?(kind)} #{k.hash == kind.hash}" end puts "###### Does @items include it? #{@items.include?(kind)}" coll = @items[kind] f = coll.nil? ? nil : coll[key.to_sym] (f.nil? || f[:deleted]) ? nil : f end end ``` *Running without Process.warmup* If we run the attached script without the `Process.warmup` call, we will see that the keys align with the FEATURES key we provided. Additionally, the hash does see that the key exists, resulting in an evaluation result of true at the end. That output follows. ```shell ##### Does features match the key {:namespace=>"segments", :priority=>0}? false false false ##### Does features match the key {:namespace=>"features", :priority=>1, :get_dependency_keys=>#<Proc:0x00007ee6174f9738 /home/mkeeler/code/launchdarkly/ruby-server-sdk.git/main/lib/ldclient-rb/in_memory_store.rb:17 (lambda)>}? true true true ###### Does @items include it? true true ``` *Running with Process.warmup* If you enable the `Process.warmup` option, and run the script a few times, you will see output similar to the following. Note that while the keys are `==`, `eql?`, and their `.hash` values are equal, the hash does not see that the FEATURES key exists. ```shell ##### Does features match the key {:namespace=>"segments", :priority=>0}? false false false ##### Does features match the key {:namespace=>"features", :priority=>1, :get_dependency_keys=>#<Proc:0x0000774f1cbfd730 /home/mkeeler/code/launchdarkly/ruby-server-sdk.git/main/lib/ldclient-rb/in_memory_store.rb:17 (lambda)>}? true true true ###### Does @items include it? false I, [2024-10-30T14:34:33.842145 #974568] INFO -- : [LDClient] Unknown feature flag "sample-feature". Returning default value false ``` **Workarounds** We have worked around this issue by replacing these keys with classes. You can refer to the [PR here](https://github.com/launchdarkly/ruby-server-sdk/pull/301/files) for those details. You can also resolve this by triggering a `rehash` on the hash after the `Process.warmup` has run. ---Files-------------------------------- main.rb (630 Bytes) Gemfile (96 Bytes) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
