`extra_fd` was leaked if `fd_set_cloexec` fails -- I can't think of any
chance of that happening here, but just in case.
Coverity Scan found this issue.
So that it doesn't get included in the generated binaries for builds
that don't support loading shared GC modules

Do not release GVL around get{pwuid,pwnam,grgid,grnam} calls,
as doing so is not thread-safe. Another C extension could have
a concurrent call, and derefencing the returned pointer from
these calls could result in a segfault.
Have rb_home_dir_of call rb_getpwdirnam_for_login if available,
so it can use getpwnam_r and release GVL in a thread-safe manner.
This is related to GVL releasing work in [Bug #20587].
[Feature #20590]
For better of for worse, fork(2) remain the primary provider of
parallelism in Ruby programs. Even though it's frowned uppon in
many circles, and a lot of literature will simply state that only
async-signal safe APIs are safe to use after `fork()`, in practice
most APIs work well as long as you are careful about not forking
while another thread is holding a pthread mutex.
One of the APIs that is known cause fork safety issues is `getaddrinfo`.
If you fork while another thread is inside `getaddrinfo`, a mutex
may be left locked in the child, with no way to unlock it.
I think we could reduce the impact of these problem by preventing
in for the most notorious and common cases, by locking around
`fork(2)` and known unsafe APIs with a read-write lock.
- Extract functions to check not-found conditions
- Set the length to the result of `rb_getlogin`
- Reentrant versions return an error numeber but not `errno`
- Check maybe-undefined macros with `defined`
The macro SafeStringValue() became just StringValue() in c5c05460ac2,
and it is deprecated nowadays.
This patch replaces remaining macro usage. Some occurrences are left in
ext/stringio and ext/win32ole, they should be fixed upstream.
The macro itself is not deleted, because it may be used in extensions.
Revert "Remove deprecated code to fix RUBY_DEBUG build failures"
This reverts commit 9614bea2cd59902a051a7387e354e23a52fe5396.
And changed 3.4 to 3.5. To be fixed properly later.
* Allows macOS users to use M:N threads (and technically FreeBSD, though it has not been verified on FreeBSD)
* Include sys/event.h header check for macros, and include sys/event.h when present
* Rename epoll_fd to more generic kq_fd (Kernel event Queue) for use by both epoll and kqueue
* MAP_STACK is not available on macOS so conditionall apply it to mmap flags
* Set fd to close on exec
* Log debug messages specific to kqueue and epoll on creation
* close_invalidate raises an error for the kqueue fd on child process fork. It's unclear rn if that's a bug, or if it's kqueue specific behavior
Use kq with rb_thread_wait_for_single_fd
* Only platforms with `USE_POLL` (linux) had changes applied to take advantage of kernel event queues. It needed to be applied to the `select` so that kqueue could be properly applied
* Clean up kqueue specific code and make sure only flags that were actually set are removed (or an error is raised)
* Also handle kevent specific errnos, since most don't apply from epoll to kqueue
* Use the more platform standard close-on-exec approach of `fcntl` and `FD_CLOEXEC`. The io-event gem uses `ioctl`, but fcntl seems to be the recommended choice. It is also what Go, Bun, and Libuv use
* We're making changes in this file anyways - may as well fix a couple spelling mistakes while here
Make sure FD_CLOEXEC carries over in dup
* Otherwise the kqueue descriptor should have FD_CLOEXEC, but doesn't and fails in assert_close_on_exec
This patch introduce M:N thread scheduler for Ractor system.
In general, M:N thread scheduler employs N native threads (OS threads)
to manage M user-level threads (Ruby threads in this case).
On the Ruby interpreter, 1 native thread is provided for 1 Ractor
and all Ruby threads are managed by the native thread.
From Ruby 1.9, the interpreter uses 1:1 thread scheduler which means
1 Ruby thread has 1 native thread. M:N scheduler change this strategy.
Because of compatibility issue (and stableness issue of the implementation)
main Ractor doesn't use M:N scheduler on default. On the other words,
threads on the main Ractor will be managed with 1:1 thread scheduler.
There are additional settings by environment variables:
`RUBY_MN_THREADS=1` enables M:N thread scheduler on the main ractor.
Note that non-main ractors use the M:N scheduler without this
configuration. With this configuration, single ractor applications
run threads on M:1 thread scheduler (green threads, user-level threads).
`RUBY_MAX_CPU=n` specifies maximum number of native threads for
M:N scheduler (default: 8).
This patch will be reverted soon if non-easy issues are found.
[Bug #19842]
`Process::Status#&` and `Process::Status#>>` are provided only for
the backward compatibility with older Ruby than 1.8 where `$?` was
a `Fixnum`, and the knowledge about internals of system dependent
macros is necessary to use them. Modern programs and libraries
should not need these methods.
