- Calculate the difference between `oldbase` and `newbase` only once outside the loop.
- To make sure they are within range, the comparison is done only once instead of twice.
The correct technique now is "Token Threading".
However, the new name was chosen because it was felt that if a different technique was added in the future, there would be no need to replace it.
Passing a proc generated by the following method to `mrb_yield()` or `mrb_yield_argv()` no longer causes `SIGSEGV`:
- C functions made into proc objects with `mrb_proc_new_cfunc()`.
- A proc object which is the top level of a program generated by `mrb_load_string_cxt()` etc. with `mrbc_context::no_exec` enabled.
See also: #5932
The `REnv` object is difficult to deal with, and it would be ideal if the user did not have to manipulate it directly.
In some previous situations, it was necessary to call `mrb_env_unshare()`, a non-API function, after `mrb_load_string()` or similar.
With this patch, it is no longer necessary for users to use `mrb_env_unshare()` directly, as it is now handled internally simply by using the `mrb_vm_ci_env_clear()` function.
Also, `mrb_vm_ci_env_set()` is demoted from the `MRB_API` function for the same reason.
ref. commit 1ab3da6f08
Move the detachment of the "env" object, now done by `mrb_top_run()` by #5904, to `mrb_vm_run()`.
This is because `mrb_vm_run()` can remove `mrb_env_unshare()` which is called from `bin/mirb`.
Also, even if the mruby VM is already running, either of the following conditions should be used to detach "env":
- If the `stack_keep` variable is 0.
- If the stack length of "env" is longer than `irep->nlocals`.
The reason for the change is that the stack beyond `irep->nlocals` is used inside the called method, and previously it was possible to reference and manipulate the state inside the method via "env".
env stack | |
main stack | top | m1 | m2 |
|<--------------->|
operable via env stack (including self)
If the problematic block is called from the `m2` method above, it is possible to replace `self` in `m1` and `m2` as well as the internal variables.
This change may cause compatibility problems, but I believe it is better to make `MRB_API`, `mrb_vm_run()` safe.
If a dangerous procedure is absolutely necessary, `mrb_vm_exec()` can still be called as before.
This is to keep the local variables of the previously created blocks consistent in case the `mrbc_context` passed to `mrb_load_exec()` is `NULL` or different.
Switching between `mrbc_context` pointers that are non `NULL` can be done safely by calling `mrbc_cleanup_local_variables()`.
Before this patch, the result of the following code is not as expected.
```console
% cat loadstr.c
#include <mruby.h>
#include <mruby/compile.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
mrb_load_string(
mrb,
"(a, b, c, d, e, f, g) = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] \n"
"$lambda = -> { p [a, b, c, d, e, f, g] }");
mrb_load_string(mrb, "$lambda.call");
mrb_close(mrb);
return 0;
}
% $(bin/mruby-config --cc --cflags --ldflags) loadstr.c $(bin/mruby-config --libs) && ./a.out
[main, nil, nil, main, nil, nil, main]
```
Also, since `mrb_env_unshare()` was not used before, the internal stack of simply detached `env` objects could show invalid addresses by `stack_extend()`.

It fixes a bug that instance_eval for immediate objects defines methods
in Object, instead of raising error.
```ruby
1.instance_eval do
def foo
p :foo
end
end
```
- Now that it is called after `cipush()`, pass in a new ci pointer.
- Removed the parameters `clsp`, `a`, and `c`, which are no longer needed since they now operate directly on `ci`.
- Change the parameter `super`, which is treated as a boolean, to `mrb_bool`.
- Leave the parameter `mid`.
Because if `prepare_missing()` raises the exception `NoMethodError`, `ci->mid` must not be set when suppressing extra information on the stack trace.
However, set `ci->mid` here, since the preparation is completed at the end of the function.
Raising a `SystemStackError` exception in an out-of-memory situation will generate backtrace information.
This can eventually lead to a `NoMemoryError` exception, and this process flow is completely undesirable.
In effect, this change means that it will include a revert of commit 0dbb9e6e41.
Transforms the value of a splat inside a return statement (similar
to an array). For example, `return *nil` should return `nil.to_a`,
while `return *1` should return `[1]`
Since `callinfo::blk` is not marked in the GC, it may be reclaimed in
the sweep phase. When it reclaimed, it will become either (a) a non Proc
object, or (b) a Proc object that happen to have the same address.
For case (a), adding `b->tt == MRB_TT_PROC` check works. We should avoid
the following `MRB_PROC_STRICT_P()` and `MRB_PROC_ENV()` operations for
non Proc objects.
For case (b), `MRB_PROC_ENV(b) == CI_ENV(&c->ci[-1])` check should work.
Unrelated Proc objects should be filtered by the check.
We don't need to clear `callinfo::blk` by `NULL` because the callinfo
struct will be discarded afterward in the `cipop()` function.
This reverts commit c28ac75a87.
This change caused SEGV in the case like the following:
```
class C
class << self
attr_accessor :a
alias :const_missing :a=
end
end
p C::CONST
```
The common parts of `OP_SEND` and `OP_SUPER` have been merged so they no longer need to be independent.
This effectively means revert commit d0e8637e30.
