2022-12-22Hide RubyVM::Shape's interface as much as possible [ci skip]Takashi Kokubun
RubyVM::Shape is usually not available (you need SHAPE_DEBUG macro, which is not defined by default). So it seems confusing to leave RubyVM::Shape in the document. This hides only method definitions because, well, I can't find a way to hide things defined by rb_define_const or rb_struct_define_under. I gave up making the C-based documentation right. You should define things in Ruby instead.

2022-12-15Fix Object Movement allocation in GCMatt Valentine-House
When moving Objects between size pools we have to assign a new shape. This happened during updating references - we tried to create a new shape tree that mirrored the existing tree, but based on the root shape of the new size pool. This causes allocations to happen if the new tree doesn't already exist, potentially triggering a GC, during GC. This commit changes object movement to look for a pre-existing new tree during object movement, and if that tree does not exist, we don't move the object to the new pool. This allows us to remove the shape allocation from update references. Co-Authored-By: Peter Zhu <peter@peterzhu.ca> Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/6938
2022-12-15Transition complex objects to "too complex" shapeJemma Issroff
When an object becomes "too complex" (in other words it has too many variations in the shape tree), we transition it to use a "too complex" shape and use a hash for storing instance variables. Without this patch, there were rare cases where shape tree growth could "explode" and cause performance degradation on what would otherwise have been cached fast paths. This patch puts a limit on shape tree growth, and gracefully degrades in the rare case where there could be a factorial growth in the shape tree. For example: ```ruby class NG; end HUGE_NUMBER.times do NG.new.instance_variable_set(:"@unique_ivar_#{_1}", 1) end ``` We consider objects to be "too complex" when the object's class has more than SHAPE_MAX_VARIATIONS (currently 8) leaf nodes in the shape tree and the object introduces a new variation (a new leaf node) associated with that class. For example, new variations on instances of the following class would be considered "too complex" because those instances create more than 8 leaves in the shape tree: ```ruby class Foo; end 9.times { Foo.new.instance_variable_set(":@uniq_#{_1}", 1) } ``` However, the following class is *not* too complex because it only has one leaf in the shape tree: ```ruby class Foo def initialize @a = @b = @c = @d = @e = @f = @g = @h = @i = nil end end 9.times { Foo.new } `` This case is rare, so we don't expect this change to impact performance of most applications, but it needs to be handled.

2022-12-15Add variation_count on classesJemma Issroff
Count how many "variations" each class creates. A "variation" is a a unique ordering of instance variables on a particular class. This can also be thought of as a branch in the shape tree. For example, the following Foo class will have 2 variations: ```ruby class Foo ; end Foo.new.instance_variable_set(:@a, 1) # case 1: creates one variation Foo.new.instance_variable_set(:@b, 1) # case 2: creates another variation foo = Foo.new foo.instance_variable_set(:@a, 1) # does not create a new variation foo.instance_variable_set(:@b, 1) # does not create a new variation (a continuation of the variation in case 1) ``` We will use this number to limit the amount of shapes that a class can create and fallback to using a hash iv lookup.

2022-12-10Update shape capacity when removing ivar and rewriting shape transitionsJemma Issroff
Since edc7af48acd12666a2945f30901d16b62a39f474, we now no longer have undef ivar transitions. Instead, we rebuild the shapes table. When we do this, we need to ensure that we retain our capacities on shapes. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/6894
2022-12-08ObjectSpace.dump_all: dump shapes as wellJean Boussier
I see several arguments in doing so. First they use a non trivial amount of memory, so for various memory profiling/mapping tools it is relevant to have visibility of the space occupied by shapes. Then, some pathological code can create a tons of shape, so it is valuable to have a way to have a way to observe shapes without having to compile Ruby with `SHAPE_DEBUG=1`. And additionally it's likely much faster to dump then this way than to use `RubyVM::Shape`. There are however a few open questions: - Shapes can't respect the `since:` argument. Not sure what to do when it is provided. Would probably make sense to not dump them. - Maybe it would make more sense to have a separate `ObjectSpace.dump_shapes`? - Maybe instead `dump_all` should take a `shapes: false` argument? Additionally, `ObjectSpace.dump_shapes` is added for the use case of debugging the evolution of the shape tree. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/6868
2022-12-07Stop transitioning to UNDEF when undefining an instance variableAaron Patterson
Cases like this: ```ruby obj = Object.new loop do obj.instance_variable_set(:@foo, 1) obj.remove_instance_variable(:@foo) end ``` can cause us to use many more shapes than we want (and even run out). This commit changes the code such that when an instance variable is removed, we'll walk up the shape tree, find the shape, then rebuild any child nodes that happened to be below the "targetted for removal" IV. This also requires moving any instance variables so that indexes derived from the shape tree will work correctly.

2022-11-21Speed up shape transitionsPeter Zhu
This commit significantly speeds up shape transitions as it changes get_next_shape_internal to not perform a lookup (and instead require the caller to perform the lookup). This avoids double lookups during shape transitions. There is a significant (~2x) speedup in the following micro-benchmark: puts(Benchmark.measure do o = Object.new 100_000.times do |i| o.instance_variable_set(:"@a#{i}", 0) end end) Before: 22.393194 0.201639 22.594833 ( 22.684237) After: 11.323086 0.022284 11.345370 ( 11.389346) Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/6751
2022-11-1832 bit comparison on shape idAaron Patterson
This commit changes the shape id comparisons to use a 32 bit comparison rather than 64 bit. That means we don't need to load the shape id to a register on x86 machines. Given the following program: ```ruby class Foo def initialize @foo = 1 @bar = 1 end def read [@foo, @bar] end end foo = Foo.new foo.read foo.read foo.read foo.read foo.read puts RubyVM::YJIT.disasm(Foo.instance_method(:read)) ``` The machine code we generated _before_ this change is like this: ``` == BLOCK 1/4, ISEQ RANGE [0,3), 65 bytes ====================== # getinstancevariable 0x559a18623023: mov rax, qword ptr [r13 + 0x18] # guard object is heap 0x559a18623027: test al, 7 0x559a1862302a: jne 0x559a1862502d 0x559a18623030: cmp rax, 4 0x559a18623034: jbe 0x559a1862502d # guard shape, embedded, and T_OBJECT 0x559a1862303a: mov rcx, qword ptr [rax] 0x559a1862303d: movabs r11, 0xffff00000000201f 0x559a18623047: and rcx, r11 0x559a1862304a: movabs r11, 0xb000000002001 0x559a18623054: cmp rcx, r11 0x559a18623057: jne 0x559a18625046 0x559a1862305d: mov rax, qword ptr [rax + 0x18] 0x559a18623061: mov qword ptr [rbx], rax == BLOCK 2/4, ISEQ RANGE [3,6), 0 bytes ======================= == BLOCK 3/4, ISEQ RANGE [3,6), 47 bytes ====================== # gen_direct_jmp: fallthrough # getinstancevariable # regenerate_branch # getinstancevariable # regenerate_branch 0x559a18623064: mov rax, qword ptr [r13 + 0x18] # guard shape, embedded, and T_OBJECT 0x559a18623068: mov rcx, qword ptr [rax] 0x559a1862306b: movabs r11, 0xffff00000000201f 0x559a18623075: and rcx, r11 0x559a18623078: movabs r11, 0xb000000002001 0x559a18623082: cmp rcx, r11 0x559a18623085: jne 0x559a18625099 0x559a1862308b: mov rax, qword ptr [rax + 0x20] 0x559a1862308f: mov qword ptr [rbx + 8], rax ``` After this change, it's like this: ``` == BLOCK 1/4, ISEQ RANGE [0,3), 41 bytes ====================== # getinstancevariable 0x5560c986d023: mov rax, qword ptr [r13 + 0x18] # guard object is heap 0x5560c986d027: test al, 7 0x5560c986d02a: jne 0x5560c986f02d 0x5560c986d030: cmp rax, 4 0x5560c986d034: jbe 0x5560c986f02d # guard shape 0x5560c986d03a: cmp word ptr [rax + 6], 0x19 0x5560c986d03f: jne 0x5560c986f046 0x5560c986d045: mov rax, qword ptr [rax + 0x10] 0x5560c986d049: mov qword ptr [rbx], rax == BLOCK 2/4, ISEQ RANGE [3,6), 0 bytes ======================= == BLOCK 3/4, ISEQ RANGE [3,6), 23 bytes ====================== # gen_direct_jmp: fallthrough # getinstancevariable # regenerate_branch # getinstancevariable # regenerate_branch 0x5560c986d04c: mov rax, qword ptr [r13 + 0x18] # guard shape 0x5560c986d050: cmp word ptr [rax + 6], 0x19 0x5560c986d055: jne 0x5560c986f099 0x5560c986d05b: mov rax, qword ptr [rax + 0x18] 0x5560c986d05f: mov qword ptr [rbx + 8], rax ``` The first ivar read is a bit more complex, but the second ivar read is much simpler. I think eventually we could teach the context about the shape, then emit only one shape guard. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/6737

2022-11-15Fix buffer overrun in ivars when rebuilding shapesPeter Zhu
In rb_shape_rebuild_shape, we need to increase the capacity when capacity == next_iv_index since the next ivar will be writing at index next_iv_index. This bug can be reproduced when assertions are turned on and you run the following code: class Foo def initialize @a1 = 1 @a2 = 1 @a3 = 1 @a4 = 1 @a5 = 1 @a6 = 1 @a7 = 1 end def add_ivars @a8 = 1 @a9 = 1 end end class Bar < Foo end foo = Foo.new foo.add_ivars bar = Bar.new GC.start bar.add_ivars bar.clone You will get the following crash: Assertion Failed: object.c:301:rb_obj_copy_ivar:src_num_ivs <= shape_to_set_on_dest->capacity Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/6725

2022-11-10Transition shape when object's capacity changesJemma Issroff
This commit adds a `capacity` field to shapes, and adds shape transitions whenever an object's capacity changes. Objects which are allocated out of a bigger size pool will also make a transition from the root shape to the shape with the correct capacity for their size pool when they are allocated. This commit will allow us to remove numiv from objects completely, and will also mean we can guarantee that if two objects share shapes, their IVs are in the same positions (an embedded and extended object cannot share shapes). This will enable us to implement ivar sets in YJIT using object shapes. Co-Authored-By: Aaron Patterson <tenderlove@ruby-lang.org> Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/6699

2022-10-11Make inline cache reads / writes atomic with object shapesJemma Issroff
Prior to this commit, we were reading and writing ivar index and shape ID in inline caches in two separate instructions when getting and setting ivars. This meant there was a race condition with ractors and these caches where one ractor could change a value in the cache while another was still reading from it. This commit instead reads and writes shape ID and ivar index to inline caches atomically so there is no longer a race condition.

2022-09-28This commit implements the Object Shapes technique in CRuby.Jemma Issroff
Object Shapes is used for accessing instance variables and representing the "frozenness" of objects. Object instances have a "shape" and the shape represents some attributes of the object (currently which instance variables are set and the "frozenness"). Shapes form a tree data structure, and when a new instance variable is set on an object, that object "transitions" to a new shape in the shape tree. Each shape has an ID that is used for caching. The shape structure is independent of class, so objects of different types can have the same shape. For example: ```ruby class Foo def initialize # Starts with shape id 0 @a = 1 # transitions to shape id 1 @b = 1 # transitions to shape id 2 end end class Bar def initialize # Starts with shape id 0 @a = 1 # transitions to shape id 1 @b = 1 # transitions to shape id 2 end end foo = Foo.new # `foo` has shape id 2 bar = Bar.new # `bar` has shape id 2 ``` Both `foo` and `bar` instances have the same shape because they both set instance variables of the same name in the same order. This technique can help to improve inline cache hits as well as generate more efficient machine code in JIT compilers. This commit also adds some methods for debugging shapes on objects.
