[Bug #20631] Workaround for macOS 15.0 fork crash

2024-10-10T04:40:59+00:00

macOS 15.0 24A5331b seems to have a weird issue that
`CFStringCreateWithBytesNoCopy` does not return `NSTaggedPointerString`
instance for the first call. This issue is fixed in macOS 15.1 but we
need to workaround it for macOS 15.0.

Introduce `rb_io_blocking_region` which takes `struct rb_io` argument. (#11795)

2024-10-05T02:10:12+00:00

This does not change any actual behaviour, but provides a choke point for blocking IO operations.

* Update `IO::Buffer` to use `rb_io_blocking_region`.

* Update `File` to use `rb_io_blocking_region`.

* Update `IO` to use `rb_io_blocking_region`.

8350b48cfa7d344d9e2dc9748c26607c1b89d7df introduced a memory leak bug.

Will fix [Bug #20773]
`loop { File.realpath("foo") }` caused memory leak.

Extract `mutable_CFString_new`

From duplicate code in `rb_CFString_class_initialize_before_fork` and
`rb_str_append_normalized_ospath`.

Release GVL for get{pwnam,pwuid,grgid,grnam}_r calls in process.c

2024-09-12T14:24:02+00:00

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].

Check getlogin return value before passing to strcasecmp

2024-08-22T02:20:47+00:00

getlogin can return NULL, and this can avoid a segfault
in that case.

Mentioned as an issue in comment to bug 20586.

Fix `utimesat` availability condition

2024-07-18T02:20:17+00:00

As `__has_attribute` macro is always defined in internal/compilers.h,
gcc warns `-Wunguarded-availability-new` as unknown option.  Check if
the warning option is usable instead.
