The pull-request #6371 was tight integration of mpz and bint functions.
The mpz functions take `struct RBigint*` instead of `mpz_t*`. It
decrease maintainability, in my opinion. This commit initializes `mpz_t`
from `struct RBigint*` in bint functions, so that we can keep separation
of function roles.
Both functions are only called from mpz_init_set_str(). We can assume
- mpz_t is modifiable
- mpz_t is positive
- n is positive and small (n <= 36)
Those new definitions consume less memory and are slightly faster.
We tried many times to implement the Karatsuba method to improve the
performance of multiplication of large multi-precision integers. But it
did not speed up in all cases due to the cost of memory allocation. We
decided to go back to the basic multiplication method.
If anyone wants to take on the challenge of improving the performance of
multiplication, we welcome it.
To mark `MRB_PROC_ORPHAN` we need to keep track of passed block, even
after the assignment to the block argument. And `yield` should use the
original block; #5786, #5791, #6369
The callinfo refers blk since #5786 but not marked at the time. Later we
added reclamation check by #5791 but its repeated heap scans decrease
the performance drastically in some cases. So the original @dearblue's
solution should be taken
Probably we need to always keep the original block at the bottom of
arguments. And the explicit block argument should be a normal local
variable. We will investigate it later.
This reverts commit e76bebe836 (#6309).
Because it crashes limited to gcc13 -O3.
ref. #6358.
Also, benchmark tests have shown that revert tends to be preferable in this time.
Validate GitHub Actions with pre-commit.
Remove the Super-Linter GitHub Actions check.
It is more useful to run "actionlint" with pre-commit
since the hooks run on our local machines on git commit.
We also run pre-commit on GitHub.
Whereas the Super-Linter tests only run on GitHub.

The new version gives more accurate values for decimal number
representation that are not divisible in binary representations, for
example `0.3`.
The function uses `long double` for precision. Please report if `long
double` causes problems on any platform (especially microcontrollers).
Ref #6182
The `mrb_get_argv()` function and the `*` specifier of `mrb_get_args()` get the address of the argument.
At this time, if it is passed in the form of a splat argument, it will be an address to an element of an array object.
After getting the pointer to the array object, the caller may call `mrb_vm_exec()` directly or indirectly.
At this time, a splat argument with the class set can be retrieved as an array object by searching with `ObjectSpace.each_object`.
If changes are made as array objects, addresses on the heap as arrays may become invalid, or objects in the array may be recycled by the GC.
When the caller references the changed address in a subsequent operation, use-after-free is established.
This patch assigns `NULL` as the class of the array object so that it cannot be detected by `ObjectSpace.each_object` from the Ruby side.
