thread_sched_wait_events() returned thread_sched_wait_event when an interrupt was already pending at entry, without looking at the fd, and thread_io_wait() reported that as readiness: under RUBY_MN_THREADS=2, IO#wait_readable on a pipe nobody wrote to returned truthy when a trap arrived just before the wait. A wakeup for a masked interrupt (a trap arriving inside a trap handler) was reported as a timeout, so wait_readable(0.3) in a trap handler returned nil at once. Add thread_sched_wait_interrupted for both "stopped for an interrupt" cases. thread_io_wait() now runs the whole wait under one tag, handles the interrupt and waits again on the M:N scheduler until its deadline, and treats a wakeup without an event before the deadline the same way. At the deadline it probes the fd once. rb_thread_io_blocking_call() retries func for every M:N outcome but unhandled. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
What is Ruby?
Ruby is an interpreted object-oriented programming language often used for web development. It also offers many scripting features to process plain text and serialized files, or manage system tasks. It is simple, straightforward, and extensible.
Features of Ruby
- Simple Syntax
- Normal Object-oriented Features (e.g. class, method calls)
- Advanced Object-oriented Features (e.g. mix-in, singleton-method)
- Operator Overloading
- Exception Handling
- Iterators and Closures
- Garbage Collection
- Dynamic Loading of Object Files (on some architectures)
- Highly Portable (works on many Unix-like/POSIX compatible platforms as well as Windows, macOS, etc.) cf. https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/master/maintainers_md.html#label-Platform+Maintainers
