comprehensive test coverage, and integration with existing pack/unpack
dispatch.

Reorganize switch statement cases in pack and unpack functions by grouping
formats with similar function signatures together. This improves branch
prediction and CPU pipeline efficiency by reducing branch misprediction
overhead in the hot dispatch paths.
Key improvements:
- Pack dispatch: grouped by signature patterns (integer, float, string)
- Unpack dispatch: optimized both COUNT2 and element-by-element switches
- Better instruction cache usage through logical code organization
- Enhanced branch prediction for frequently used format combinations
- Maintained full backward compatibility with all existing functionality

Replace massive 40+ case switch statement in read_tmpl() with direct
format_table[256] lookup for standard format characters. This eliminates
branch prediction overhead and reduces function size from 290 to ~90 lines.
Key improvements:
- O(1) format character resolution vs O(n) switch traversal
- Preserved runtime-dependent format handling (I, i, J, j)
- Maintained full backward compatibility with all existing tests
- Better instruction cache usage with smaller function size
- Consistent template parsing performance across format types

length via length of mrb_bint_to_s(..., 2).

Refactor mrb_ary_sample to use mrb_alloca for the 'idx' array. This
ensures that the memory is automatically freed when the C function
returns, preventing a memory leak if an exception is raised during
array manipulation.

- Replace modulo with rejection sampling in rand_i() to remove modulo bias.
This yields uniform integers in [0, max) and ensures Fisher–Yates
shuffles are truly uniform.
- Speed up Random#bytes by writing 4 bytes per PRNG call (pack a uint32_t)
and add a negative-size check (raise ArgumentError).
- Minor shuffle! tweak: hoist RARRAY_PTR/length out of the loop to avoid
repeated lookups.
- Lower GC pressure in Array#sample(n): collect unique indices in a small
C buffer, then push array elements directly, avoiding temporary Ruby
integers.
Behavioral notes:
- rand(n) and methods depending on it now have unbiased distributions.
- Random#bytes(size) now explicitly rejects negative sizes.
- Other semantics remain unchanged.

This commit refactors the `io_s_popen` function to improve readability

more manageable functions, and the platform-specific code has been
separated.

Replace separate symflags array with LSB pointer tagging to store
symbol literal flags directly in string pointers. This eliminates
the need for a separate symflags allocation, saving 1/8 of symbol
table memory overhead (282 bytes measured improvement).
Key changes:
- Add LSB tagging helper functions (symtbl_get_ptr, symtbl_is_literal,
symtbl_tag_literal)
- Store literal flag in LSB of mrb->symtbl[i] pointers (LSB=1 for
literals)
- Remove symflags field from mrb_sym_hash_table struct
- Update all symbol access functions to use proper pointer untagging
- Maintain mrb_ro_data_p() detection for platform compatibility
- Fix potential crashes by ensuring untagged pointers in memory
operations
Works in both linear and hash table modes. All 1717 tests pass.
Memory usage reduced by 282 bytes compared to original implementation.

- Reduces mrb_state size by 1KB per instance (1068->36 bytes in symbol fields)
- Configurable threshold via MRB_SYMBOL_LINEAR_THRESHOLD in mrbconf.h

The internal helper functions for array set operations now use a
stack-allocated `ary_set_t` instead of a heap-allocated one. This avoids
an unnecessary memory allocation for each call to `&`, `|`, `-`, `uniq!`,
and `intersect?`, improving performance by reducing overhead.

Rename KHASH_SMALL_THRESHOLD to KHASH_SMALL_LIMIT for brevity and clarity.
The shorter name is more concise while maintaining clear meaning as the
upper bound for small table optimization.

Rename KHASH_DEFAULT_SIZE to KHASH_INITIAL_SIZE for clearer meaning.
The name "initial" better conveys that this is the starting size for
new hash tables, while "default" could be ambiguous.

Move kh_alloc_##name from public API to internal helper kh__alloc_##name
since it's only used internally within khash implementation.
Changes:
- Remove kh_alloc_##name from KHASH_DECLARE
- Add kh__alloc_##name as static inline in KHASH_DEFINE
- Update internal calls to use kh__alloc_##name
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Rename internal helper functions from kh_ to kh__ prefix while correctly
organizing the API boundary:
KHASH_DECLARE (public interface):
- kh_keys_##name, kh_vals_##name, kh_flags_##name (used by kh_exist macro)
KHASH_DEFINE (internal helpers with kh__ prefix):
- kh__kv_size_##name, kh__htable_size_##name
- kh__mark_occupied_##name, kh__mark_deleted_##name
- kh__key_idx_##name, kh__next_probe_##name
- kh__insert_key_##name, kh__clear_flags_##name
- kh__is_small_##name, kh__get_small_##name
- kh__rebuild_##name, kh__put_small_##name
This clearly separates public API functions from internal implementation
helpers while ensuring kh_flags_##name remains accessible to the public
kh_exist macro.

Added kh_next_probe_##name() helper function to encapsulate the repeated
linear probing step calculation pattern.
Replaced 2 instances of manual probing calculation:
- k = (k+(++step)) & khash_mask(h) -> k = kh_next_probe_##name(k, &step, h)
This eliminates the duplicated bit manipulation pattern and makes the
probing logic more readable and less error-prone.
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Added kh_rebuild_##name() helper function that consolidates the complete
"save-allocate-rehash-cleanup" pattern shared between kh_resize and
kh_put_small functions.
The helper intelligently handles both scenarios:
- Small table conversion: iterates by size
- Hash table resize: iterates by buckets with flag checks
This eliminates approximately 25 lines of duplicated code across the
two functions while maintaining identical functionality.
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Removed kh_alloc_small_##name() function and inlined its body into the
single call site in kh_init_data_##name(). This eliminates unnecessary
function call overhead and reduces code complexity.
The function was only 2 lines and called once, making it an ideal
candidate for inlining.

Renamed size calculation helpers for clarity:
- kh_data_size_##name() -> kh_kv_size_##name() (keys and values only)
- Added kh_htable_size_##name() (complete hash table including flags)
Updated all usages and simplified patterns:
- kh_kv_size_##name(n) + n/4 -> kh_htable_size_##name(n)
The new names clearly distinguish between:
- kv_size: just the key-value data
- htable_size: complete hash table allocation (data + flags)
This eliminates confusion and makes the code more self-documenting.
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Added kh_key_idx_##name() helper function to encapsulate the repeated
pattern of calculating bucket index from key hash.
Replaced 2 instances of manual hash calculation:
- __hash_func(mrb,key) & khash_mask(h) → kh_key_idx_##name(mrb, key, h)
This eliminates the duplicated hash-and-mask pattern and makes the code
more readable by clearly expressing the intent (get bucket index for key).
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Added two helper functions to encapsulate repeated flag manipulation patterns:
- kh_mark_occupied_##name(): clears both empty and deleted bits
- kh_mark_deleted_##name(): sets the deleted bit
Replaced 3 instances of manual bit manipulation with calls to these helpers:
- ed_flags[del_k/4] &= ~__m_del[del_k%4] → kh_mark_occupied_##name(h, del_k)
- ed_flags[k/4] &= ~__m_empty[k%4] → kh_mark_occupied_##name(h, k)
- ed_flags[x/4] |= __m_del[x%4] → kh_mark_deleted_##name(h, x)
This eliminates error-prone bit operations, improves readability, and makes
the flag state transitions self-documenting.
