* To show environments stack when the current namespace is unexpected or
namespace detection is broken
* It is displayed only when RUBY_BUGREPORT_NAMESPACE_ENV=1 is specified
to fix inconsistent and wrong current namespace detections.
This includes:
* Moving load_path and related things from rb_vm_t to rb_namespace_t to simplify
accessing those values via namespace (instead of accessing either vm or ns)
* Initializing root_namespace earlier and consolidate builtin_namespace into root_namespace
* Adding VM_FRAME_FLAG_NS_REQUIRE for checkpoints to detect a namespace to load/require files
* Removing implicit refinements in the root namespace which was used to determine
the namespace to be loaded (replaced by VM_FRAME_FLAG_NS_REQUIRE)
* Removing namespaces from rb_proc_t because its namespace can be identified by lexical context
* Starting to use ep[VM_ENV_DATA_INDEX_SPECVAL] to store the current namespace when
the frame type is MAGIC_TOP or MAGIC_CLASS (block handlers don't exist in this case)
rb_profile_frames() is used by profilers in a way such that it can run
on any instruction in the binary, and it crashed previously in the
following situation in `RUBY_DEBUG` builds:

There is a small window where the control frame is invalid and fails the
assert.
The double crash also shows that in `RUBY_DEBUG` builds, the crash reporter was
previously not resilient to corrupt frame state. In release builds, it
prints more info.
Add unchecked APIs for the crash reporter and profilers so they work
as well in `RUBY_DEBUG` builds as non-debug builds.
rb_fiber_scheduler_current() may return nil depending on whether the
scheduler is being prevented for some reason, e.g., Fiber.blocking{}.

* [win32] fix compilation for windows-arm64
Credits to MSYS2 Ruby package using this patch.
* [win32] nm use full options
Fix compilation error when using MSYS2 environment.
Credits to MSYS2 Ruby package using this patch.
* [win32] detect llvm-windres (used for windows-arm64)
When adding preprocessor option for llvm-windres (using clang as
parameter), it fails. Thus, do not add this.
It's needed to be able to compile windows-arm64 version, because MSYS2
toolchain is LLVM based (instead of GCC/binutils).
* [win32] pioinfo detection for windows-arm64
This fixes "unexpected ucrtbase.dll" for native windows-arm64 ruby
binary. It does not solve issue with x64 version emulated on this
platform.
Value of pioinfo pointer can be found in ucrtbase.dll at latest adrp/add
sequence before return of _isatty function. This works for both release
and debug ucrt.
Due to the nature of aarch64 ISA (vs x86 or x64), it's needed to
disassemble instructions to retrieve offset value, which is a bit more
complicated than matching specific string patterns.
Details about adrp/add usage can be found in this blog post:

Remove rb_control_frame_t::__bp__ and optimize bmethod calls
This commit removes the __bp__ field from rb_control_frame_t. It was
introduced to help MJIT, but since MJIT was replaced by RJIT, we can use
vm_base_ptr() to compute it from the SP of the previous control frame
instead. Removing the field avoids needing to set it up when pushing new
frames.
Simply removing __bp__ would cause crashes since RJIT and YJIT used a
slightly different stack layout for bmethod calls than the interpreter.
At the moment of the call, the two layouts looked as follows:
┌────────────┐ ┌────────────┐
│ frame_base │ │ frame_base │
├────────────┤ ├────────────┤
│ ... │ │ ... │
├────────────┤ ├────────────┤
│ args │ │ args │
├────────────┤ └────────────┘<─prev_frame_sp
│ receiver │
prev_frame_sp─>└────────────┘
RJIT & YJIT interpreter
Essentially, vm_base_ptr() needs to compute the address to frame_base
given prev_frame_sp in the diagrams. The presence of the receiver
created an off-by-one situation.
Make the interpreter use the layout the JITs use for iseq-to-iseq
bmethod calls. Doing so removes unnecessary argument shifting and
vm_exec_core() re-entry from the interpreter, yielding a speed
improvement visible through `benchmark/vm_defined_method.yml`:
patched: 7578743.1 i/s
master: 4796596.3 i/s - 1.58x slower
C-to-iseq bmethod calls now store one more VALUE than before, but that
should have negligible impact on overall performance.
Note that re-entering vm_exec_core() used to be necessary for firing
TracePoint events, but that's no longer the case since
9121e57a5f.

This is useful for crash triaging. It also helps to hint extension
developers about the misuse of `rb_thread_call_without_gvl()`.
Example:
$ ./miniruby -e 'Ractor.new{Ractor.receive};
Thread.new{sleep}; Process.kill:SEGV,Process.pid'

This patch pushes dummy frames when loading code for the
profiling purpose.
The following methods push a dummy frame:
* `Kernel#require`
* `Kernel#load`
* `RubyVM::InstructionSequence.compile_file`
* `RubyVM::InstructionSequence.load_from_binary`

In the event that we are crashing due to a corrupt Ruby stack, we might
re-enter rb_vm_bugreport() due to failed assertions in
rb_backtrace_print_as_bugreport() or SDR(). In these cases we were
printing the bug report ad infinitum with unbounded recusion.
I seem to run into this every once in a while and the amount of log it
prints out is pretty distracting. On CI environments it makes the log
output unnecessarily big. Let's fix this.
`NON_SCALAR_THREAD_ID` shows `pthread_t` is non-scalar (non-pointer)
and only s390x is known platform. However, the supporting code is
very complex and it is only used for deubg print information.
So this patch removes the support of `NON_SCALAR_THREAD_ID`
and make the code simple.
`rb_thread_t` contained `native_thread_data_t` to represent
thread implementation dependent data. This patch separates
them and rename it `rb_native_thread` and point it from
`rb_thraed_t`.
Now, 1 Ruby thread (`rb_thread_t`) has 1 native thread (`rb_native_thread`).
Use ISEQ_BODY macro to get the rb_iseq_constant_body of the ISeq. Using
this macro will make it easier for us to change the allocation strategy
of rb_iseq_constant_body when using Variable Width Allocation.
