Refactor str_succ_bang for in-place modification

This commit refactors the str_succ_bang function in mrbgems/mruby-string-ext/src/string.c to perform string succession in-place. The previous implementation used an intermediate temporary string, which incurred memory and performance overhead. This change aims to reduce memory usage and improve performance by modifying the string buffer directly, using mrb_str_resize and memmove when prepending characters is necessary (e.g., '9' -> '10'). Formatting changes (newlines before 'else') have also been applied as per user request.

- Array pattern matching ([ec67fd9](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/ec67fd9))
- Hash pattern matching ([2147263](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/2147263))
- Find pattern matching (`[*pre, target, *post]`) ([6c4d98b](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/6c4d98b))
- Pin operator (`^variable`) ([1de6340](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/1de6340))
- Guard clauses (`if`/`unless` conditions) ([07ac110](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/07ac110))
- One-line pattern matching (`expr in pattern`) ([e76ce24](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/e76ce24))
- Brace-less hash pattern support ([e8096bf](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/e8096bf))
-
-## Other Language Changes

-tables stored in `.rodata` instead of heap-allocated hash tables. Method
-definitions no longer consume heap memory, significantly reducing memory
-footprint for embedded use.

-String, Array, Hash, Numeric, Integer, Float, NilClass, TrueClass,
-FalseClass, Range, Symbol, Exception, Proc.
-
-Extension gems converted: mruby-string-ext, mruby-array-ext, mruby-set,
-mruby-struct, mruby-class-ext, mruby-numeric-ext, mruby-random,
-mruby-kernel-ext, mruby-complex, mruby-rational, mruby-io, mruby-socket,

-New super-instructions that fuse common opcode sequences to reduce bytecode size and improve performance:
-
- `OP_SEND0`/`OP_SSEND0`: Zero-argument method call, avoiding argument count setup ([9123ef4](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/9123ef4))
- `OP_TDEF`/`OP_SDEF`: Fused method definition combining TCLASS/SCLASS+METHOD+DEF into single instruction, saving 4 bytes per method ([8d4f47e](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/8d4f47e))
- `OP_GETIDX0`: Fast path for `array[0]` and `Array#first` access ([680f7ec](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/680f7ec))
- `OP_ADDILV`/`OP_SUBILV`: Local variable increment/decrement fusion for `i += n` patterns ([43f64b9](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/43f64b9))
- `OP_RETSELF`: Single-byte instruction for `return self` pattern ([a71db8c](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/a71db8c))
- `OP_RETNIL`: Single-byte instruction for `return nil` pattern ([64e30bf](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/64e30bf))
- `OP_RETTRUE`/`OP_RETFALSE`: Single-byte instructions for `return true`/`return false` patterns ([0b15727](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/0b15727))
- `OP_MATCHERR`: Pattern matching error with conditional execution ([944168a](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/944168a))
- `OP_BLKCALL`: Direct block call for `yield`, bypassing method dispatch (13-17% faster) ([3aa2872](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/3aa2872))
-
-Other optimizations:
-
- 1.5x stack growth instead of linear growth for reduced reallocations ([f7988c93](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/f7988c93))
- Skip keyword argument hash duplication ([5970e350](https://github.com/mruby/mruby/commit/5970e350))

 ## Reporting a Vulnerability

-To report a security vulnerability, please email the mruby team at <matz@ruby.or.jp>. We appreciate your efforts to disclose your findings responsibly.
+If you have any security concern, contact <matz@ruby.or.jp>.

 ## Scope

-mruby is an embeddable Ruby implementation. Its security model is designed for integration into a host application, which is responsible for sandboxing and resource management. This policy defines what we consider a security vulnerability within the mruby interpreter itself.
+We consider the following issues as vulnerabilities:

-### High Priority Security Vulnerabilities
+- Remote code execution
+- Crash caused by a valid Ruby script

-We consider the following issues to be **high priority security vulnerabilities**:
+We _don't_ consider the following issues as vulnerabilities:

- **Remote Code Execution (RCE)**: The ability to execute arbitrary machine code or shell commands from within a Ruby script, beyond the intended execution scope of the script itself.
-
-### Lower Priority: Crashes (Preferably Report as Bugs)
-
-We **accept but deprioritize** the following issues. We recommend reporting them as **bug reports** on our issue tracker rather than security reports:
-
- **VM Crash on Valid Ruby Code**: Segmentation faults, assertion failures, or other interpreter crashes triggered by syntactically and semantically valid Ruby scripts.
-  - _Recommendation_: Please report these as bugs on our issue tracker.
-  - _Rationale_: While we will fix these issues, they typically only result in denial of service (DoS), not arbitrary code execution. They are lower priority than RCE vulnerabilities.
-  - _Note_: This does not include standard Ruby exceptions like `TypeError` or `ZeroDivisionError`, which are expected behavior.
-  - _Example_: A segmentation fault when running `[1, 2, 3].map { |x| x * 2 }` is best reported as a bug.
-
-### Out of Scope: Not Considered Security Vulnerabilities
-
-We do **not** consider the following issues to be security vulnerabilities:
-
- **Resource Exhaustion**: Infinite loops, excessive memory allocation, or high CPU usage originating from a Ruby script.
-  - _Rationale_: The host application is responsible for implementing resource limits, sandboxing, and execution timeouts. mruby provides the execution engine; the host provides the constraints.
-  - _Example_: `loop {}` or `"a" * (2**30)` are not vulnerabilities, even if they lead to memory or CPU exhaustion.
-
- **Crashes from Malformed Bytecode**: Crashes resulting from loading or executing corrupted or intentionally malformed `.mrb` files.
-  - _Rationale_: mruby's bytecode format is not a security boundary. Applications should only execute bytecode from trusted sources.
-  - _Example_: A crash discovered by fuzzing `.mrb` files is not considered a vulnerability.
-
- **Crashes from C API Misuse**: Crashes caused by incorrect usage of mruby's C API from the embedding application.
-  - _Rationale_: The C API is a trusted interface for developers. The caller is responsible for adhering to the API contract (e.g., not passing `NULL` pointers, managing object lifetimes correctly).
-  - _Example_: Calling `mrb_funcall()` with an invalid `mrb_state*` pointer is not a vulnerability.
-
- **Theoretical Undefined Behavior (UB)**: Issues reported by tools like ASAN, UBSan, or Valgrind that do not lead to a demonstrable crash or exploitable behavior in practice.
-  - _Rationale_: While we strive for clean, well-defined code, our focus is on practical security impact. We prioritize fixing UB that is exploitable over issues that are purely theoretical.
-  - _Example_: An integer overflow in an intermediate calculation that gets handled correctly before affecting program output or control flow.
-
- **Warnings on Large Memory Allocations**: Tooling warnings related to large memory allocations that do not result in a crash.
-  - _Rationale_: mruby is designed to handle `malloc(3)` returning `NULL` on large allocation requests. This is considered graceful error handling, not a vulnerability.
-
-### Summary
-
- **High Priority Security Reports**: Remote code execution vulnerabilities.
- **Accepted (but preferably as bug reports)**: VM crashes from valid Ruby code.
- **Not Accepted as Security Issues**: Resource exhaustion, malformed bytecode, C API misuse, theoretical undefined behavior, or allocation warnings.
+- Runtime C undefined behavior (including integer overflow)
+- Crash caused by misused API
+- Crash caused by modified compiled binary
+- ASAN/Valgrind warning for too big memory allocation

-<!-- summary: About Amalgamation (Single-File Build) -->
-
-# Amalgamation
-
-Amalgamation combines all mruby source files into a single `mruby.c` and
-`mruby.h` for easy embedding, similar to SQLite's distribution model.
-
-## Benefits
-
- **Simple integration**: Just two files to add to your project
- **Single compilation unit**: Enables better compiler optimization
- **No build system required**: Compile directly with any C compiler
- **Portable**: No external dependencies beyond standard C library
-  (but see [Platform-Dependent Gems](#platform-dependent-gems) below)
-
-## Generating Amalgamation
-
-```console
-rake amalgam
-```
-
-Output files are generated in `build/<target>/amalgam/`:
-
- `mruby.h` - All headers concatenated in dependency order
- `mruby.c` - All sources concatenated (core + gems + mrblib)
-
-### With Custom Configuration
-
-The amalgamation includes gems specified in your build configuration:
-
-```console
-MRUBY_CONFIG=build_config/minimal.rb rake amalgam
-```
-
-## Using the Amalgamation
-
-### Basic Usage
-
-```c
-#include "mruby.h"
-
-int main(void) {
-  mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
-  mrb_load_string(mrb, "puts 'Hello from mruby!'");
-  mrb_close(mrb);
-  return 0;
-}
-```
-
-### Compiling
-
-```console
-gcc -I./build/host/amalgam your_app.c ./build/host/amalgam/mruby.c -o your_app -lm
-```
-
-For optimized builds:
-
-```console
-gcc -O2 -DNDEBUG -I./build/host/amalgam your_app.c ./build/host/amalgam/mruby.c -o your_app -lm
-```
-
-## Gem Compatibility
-
-### Known Working Gems
-
-The following gems work with amalgamation:
-
- `mruby-compiler` - Required for `mrb_load_string`
- `mruby-eval` - `eval`, `Binding`
- `mruby-array-ext`, `mruby-string-ext`, `mruby-hash-ext`
- `mruby-numeric-ext`, `mruby-range-ext`, `mruby-symbol-ext`
- `mruby-proc-ext`, `mruby-kernel-ext`, `mruby-object-ext`, `mruby-class-ext`
- `mruby-enum-ext`, `mruby-compar-ext`
- `mruby-error`, `mruby-math`, `mruby-struct`
- `mruby-bigint`, `mruby-rational`, `mruby-complex`
- `mruby-io` (with `hal-posix-io`)
- `mruby-task` (with `hal-posix-task`)
-
-### Platform-Dependent Gems
-
-Gems that use a HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) include
-platform-specific code in the amalgamation. For example, if
-`mruby-io` selects `hal-posix-io` on Linux, the generated `mruby.c`
-contains POSIX-specific code and cannot be compiled on Windows.
-
-If you need amalgamated files for multiple platforms, generate them
-separately for each target platform (or cross-build configuration).
-
-### Excluded Gems
-
-Binary gems (`mruby-bin-*`) are automatically excluded as they contain
-their own `main()` function. The amalgamation produces a library, not
-an executable.
-
-## Example Configuration
-
-A minimal configuration for amalgamation:
-
-```ruby
-# build_config/amalgam.rb
-MRuby::Build.new do |conf|
-  conf.toolchain :gcc
-

-## Output Sizes
-
-Typical sizes depend on included gems:
-
- `mruby.h`: 200-500 KB
- `mruby.c`: 2-4 MB
-
-## Technical Details
-
-### Header Processing
-
- Include guards are stripped to allow concatenation
- Headers are ordered by dependency (foundation types first)
- Internal includes are commented out (already in `mruby.h`)
-
-### Source Processing
-
- Sources are concatenated in proper initialization order
- X-macro headers (like `mruby/ops.h`) are inlined at each use
- Local includes (`.cstub` files) are automatically inlined
- Generated files (`mrblib.c`, `gem_init.c`) are included
-
-### Gem Defines
-
-Gems that add preprocessor defines affecting core structures are
-automatically detected and included at the top of `mruby.h`.
-Supported patterns: `MRB_USE_*`, `MRB_UTF8_*`, `HAVE_MRUBY_*`.
-
-### Build Order
-
-1. Core sources (`src/*.c`)
-2. Gem sources (`mrbgems/*/src/*.c` or `core/*.c`)
-3. Generated mrblib (`build/*/mrblib/mrblib.c`)
-4. Gem initialization (`build/*/mrbgems/gem_init.c`)

-## Headers
-
-```c
-#include <mruby.h>            /* core types, state, class/method definition */
-#include <mruby/compile.h>    /* mrb_load_string, mrb_load_file */
-#include <mruby/string.h>     /* string operations */
-#include <mruby/array.h>      /* array operations */

-
-## State Management
-
-```c
-mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();       /* create state with all gems */
-mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open_core();  /* create state without gems */
-mrb_close(mrb);                    /* close and free state */
-```
-
-`mrb_open()` returns `NULL` on allocation failure. Always check the
-return value.
-
-## Values
-
-All Ruby values are represented as `mrb_value` in C.
-
-### Creating Values
-
-```c
-mrb_nil_value()                          /* nil */
-mrb_true_value()                         /* true */
-mrb_false_value()                        /* false */
-mrb_bool_value(mrb_bool b)              /* true or false */
-mrb_fixnum_value(mrb_int i)             /* Integer */
-mrb_float_value(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_float f)  /* Float */
-mrb_symbol_value(mrb_sym sym)           /* Symbol */
-mrb_obj_value(void *p)                  /* object pointer to value */
-mrb_cptr_value(mrb_state *mrb, void *p) /* C pointer */
-```
-
-### Type Checking
-
-```c
-mrb_type(v)          /* returns enum mrb_vtype */
-mrb_nil_p(v)         /* true if nil */
-mrb_integer_p(v)     /* true if Integer */
-mrb_float_p(v)       /* true if Float */
-mrb_symbol_p(v)      /* true if Symbol */
-mrb_string_p(v)      /* true if String */
-mrb_array_p(v)       /* true if Array */
-mrb_hash_p(v)        /* true if Hash */
-mrb_true_p(v)        /* true if true */
-mrb_false_p(v)       /* true if false */
-mrb_undef_p(v)       /* true if undefined */
-mrb_immediate_p(v)   /* true if not a heap object */
-```
-
-### Extracting C Values
-
-```c
-mrb_integer(v)               /* mrb_int from Integer value */
-mrb_float(v)                 /* mrb_float from Float value */
-mrb_symbol(v)                /* mrb_sym from Symbol value */
-mrb_ptr(v)                   /* void* from object value */
-mrb_str_to_cstr(mrb, v)     /* const char* from String value */
-```
-

-## Defining Classes and Modules
-
-```c
-/* Define a class under Object */
-struct RClass *my_class = mrb_define_class(mrb, "MyClass", mrb->object_class);
-
-/* Define a class under another class/module */
-struct RClass *inner = mrb_define_class_under(mrb, outer, "Inner", mrb->object_class);
-
-/* Define a module */
-struct RClass *my_mod = mrb_define_module(mrb, "MyModule");
-struct RClass *inner_mod = mrb_define_module_under(mrb, outer, "InnerMod");
-
-/* Include/prepend a module */
-mrb_include_module(mrb, my_class, my_mod);
-mrb_prepend_module(mrb, my_class, my_mod);
-
-/* Look up existing class/module */
-struct RClass *c = mrb_class_get(mrb, "String");
-struct RClass *m = mrb_module_get(mrb, "Kernel");
-
-/* Define a constant */
-mrb_define_const(mrb, my_class, "VERSION", mrb_str_new_lit(mrb, "1.0"));
-```
-
-## Defining Methods
-
-All C methods have the same signature:
-
-```c
-static mrb_value
-my_method(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value self)
-{
-  /* self is the receiver */
-  return mrb_nil_value();
-}
-```
-
-Register with:
-
-```c
-mrb_define_method(mrb, klass, "name", my_method, MRB_ARGS_NONE());
-mrb_define_class_method(mrb, klass, "name", my_method, MRB_ARGS_REQ(1));
-mrb_define_module_function(mrb, mod, "name", my_method, MRB_ARGS_ANY());
-```
-
-### Argument Specifiers
-
-| Macro | Meaning |
-| ----- | ------- |
-| `MRB_ARGS_NONE()` | No arguments |
-| `MRB_ARGS_REQ(n)` | `n` required arguments |
-| `MRB_ARGS_OPT(n)` | `n` optional arguments |
-| `MRB_ARGS_ARG(r,o)` | `r` required + `o` optional |
-| `MRB_ARGS_REST()` | Splat (`*args`) |
-| `MRB_ARGS_BLOCK()` | Block (`&block`) |
-| `MRB_ARGS_ANY()` | Any number (same as REST) |
-| `MRB_ARGS_KEY(n,rest)` | `n` keyword args, `rest`=1 for `**kw` |
-
-These can be combined with `|`:
-
-```c
-MRB_ARGS_REQ(1) | MRB_ARGS_OPT(2) | MRB_ARGS_BLOCK()
-```
-
-## Parsing Arguments
-
-`mrb_get_args()` extracts arguments from the Ruby call stack:
-
-```c
-mrb_int mrb_get_args(mrb_state *mrb, const char *format, ...);
-```
-
-### Format Specifiers
-
-| Spec | Ruby Type | C Type(s) | Notes |
-| ---- | --------- | --------- | ----- |
-| `o` | any | `mrb_value` | No type check |
-| `i` | Numeric | `mrb_int` | Coerces to integer |
-| `f` | Numeric | `mrb_float` | Coerces to float |
-| `b` | any | `mrb_bool` | Truthiness |
-| `n` | String/Symbol | `mrb_sym` | Converts to symbol |
-| `s` | String | `const char*, mrb_int` | Pointer + length |
-| `z` | String | `const char*` | Null-terminated |
-| `S` | String | `mrb_value` | String value |
-| `A` | Array | `mrb_value` | Array value |
-| `H` | Hash | `mrb_value` | Hash value |
-| `C` | Class | `mrb_value` | Class/Module value |
-| `c` | Class | `struct RClass*` | Class pointer |
-| `a` | Array | `const mrb_value*, mrb_int` | Array pointer + length |
-| `d` | C Data | `void*` | Requires `mrb_data_type*` |
-| `&` | Block | `mrb_value` | Block argument |
-| `*` | rest | `const mrb_value*, mrb_int` | Rest arguments |
-| `\|` | — | — | Following args are optional |
-| `?` | — | `mrb_bool` | Was previous optional arg given? |
-| `:` | keywords | `mrb_kwargs` | Keyword arguments |
-
-Adding `!` to `S`, `A`, `H`, `C`, `c`, `s`, `z`, `a`, `d` allows `nil`
-(returns NULL/zero for nil).
-
-### Examples
-
-```c
-/* def method(name, count) */
-const char *name; mrb_int len, count;
-mrb_get_args(mrb, "si", &name, &len, &count);
-
-/* def method(required, optional=nil) */
-mrb_value req, opt = mrb_nil_value();
-mrb_get_args(mrb, "o|o", &req, &opt);
-
-/* def method(*args) */
-const mrb_value *args; mrb_int argc;
-mrb_get_args(mrb, "*", &args, &argc);
-
-/* def method(&block) */
-mrb_value block;
-mrb_get_args(mrb, "&", &block);
-
-/* def method(name:, age: 0) */
-mrb_sym kw_names[] = { mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "name"), mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "age") };
-mrb_value kw_values[2];
-mrb_kwargs kw = { 2, 1, kw_names, kw_values, NULL };
-mrb_get_args(mrb, ":", &kw);
-/* kw_values[0] = name (required), kw_values[1] = age (optional, undef if not given) */
-```
-
-## Calling Ruby Methods from C
-
-```c
-/* Call obj.method(arg1, arg2) */
-mrb_funcall(mrb, obj, "method", 2, arg1, arg2);
-
-/* Call with symbol (faster, no string lookup) */
-mrb_funcall_id(mrb, obj, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "method"), 2, arg1, arg2);
-
-/* Call with argv array */
-mrb_value argv[] = { arg1, arg2 };
-mrb_funcall_argv(mrb, obj, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "method"), 2, argv);
-
-/* Call with block */
-mrb_funcall_with_block(mrb, obj, mid, argc, argv, block);
-
-/* Yield to block */
-mrb_yield(mrb, block, arg);
-mrb_yield_argv(mrb, block, argc, argv);
-```
-
-## String Operations
-
-```c
-/* Creation */
-mrb_str_new_lit(mrb, "hello")              /* from string literal */
-mrb_str_new(mrb, ptr, len)                 /* from pointer + length */
-mrb_str_new_cstr(mrb, cstr)               /* from null-terminated C string */
-mrb_str_new_static(mrb, ptr, len)          /* from static data (no copy) */
-
-/* Access */
-RSTRING_PTR(str)                           /* char* pointer */
-RSTRING_LEN(str)                           /* length */
-mrb_str_to_cstr(mrb, str)                 /* null-terminated (may copy) */
-
-/* Modification */
-mrb_str_cat(mrb, str, ptr, len)            /* append bytes */
-mrb_str_cat_cstr(mrb, str, cstr)           /* append C string */
-mrb_str_cat_str(mrb, str, str2)            /* append String */
-
-/* Comparison */
-mrb_str_equal(mrb, str1, str2)             /* equality */
-mrb_str_cmp(mrb, str1, str2)              /* comparison (-1, 0, 1) */
-```
-
-## Array Operations
-
-```c
-/* Creation */
-mrb_ary_new(mrb)                           /* empty array */
-mrb_ary_new_capa(mrb, capa)               /* preallocated */
-mrb_ary_new_from_values(mrb, n, vals)     /* from C array */
-
-/* Access */
-RARRAY_PTR(ary)                            /* mrb_value* pointer */
-RARRAY_LEN(ary)                            /* length */
-mrb_ary_entry(ary, idx)                    /* get element (no mrb needed) */
-
-/* Modification */
-mrb_ary_push(mrb, ary, val)               /* append */
-mrb_ary_pop(mrb, ary)                     /* remove last */
-mrb_ary_shift(mrb, ary)                   /* remove first */
-mrb_ary_unshift(mrb, ary, val)            /* prepend */
-mrb_ary_set(mrb, ary, idx, val)           /* set element */
-mrb_ary_splice(mrb, ary, pos, len, rpl)   /* splice */
-mrb_ary_concat(mrb, ary, other)           /* extend */
-```
-
-## Hash Operations
-
-```c
-/* Creation */
-mrb_hash_new(mrb)                          /* empty hash */
-
-/* Access */
-mrb_hash_get(mrb, hash, key)              /* get value */
-mrb_hash_fetch(mrb, hash, key, def)       /* get with default */
-mrb_hash_key_p(mrb, hash, key)            /* key exists? */
-mrb_hash_empty_p(mrb, hash)               /* empty? */
-mrb_hash_size(mrb, hash)                  /* number of entries */
-
-/* Modification */
-mrb_hash_set(mrb, hash, key, val)         /* set key-value */
-mrb_hash_delete_key(mrb, hash, key)       /* delete key */
-mrb_hash_merge(mrb, hash1, hash2)         /* merge hash2 into hash1 */
-
-/* Iteration */
-mrb_hash_keys(mrb, hash)                  /* Array of keys */
-mrb_hash_values(mrb, hash)                /* Array of values */
-```
-
-## Wrapping C Structures
-
-To expose a C struct to Ruby, use `mrb_data_type` and `Data_Wrap_Struct`:
-
-```c
-/* 1. Define the data type with a name and destructor */
-static void point_free(mrb_state *mrb, void *p) {
-  mrb_free(mrb, p);
-}
-
-static const mrb_data_type point_type = {
-  "Point", point_free
-};
-
-/* 2. Allocate and initialize */
-static mrb_value
-point_init(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value self)
-{
-  mrb_float x, y;
-  mrb_get_args(mrb, "ff", &x, &y);
-
-  double *data = (double*)mrb_malloc(mrb, sizeof(double) * 2);
-  data[0] = x;
-  data[1] = y;
-
-  DATA_PTR(self) = data;
-  DATA_TYPE(self) = &point_type;
-
-  return self;
-}
-
-/* 3. Access the wrapped data */
-static mrb_value
-point_x(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value self)
-{
-  double *data = (double*)mrb_data_get_ptr(mrb, self, &point_type);
-  return mrb_float_value(mrb, data[0]);
-}
-
-/* 4. Register the class */
-struct RClass *point = mrb_define_class(mrb, "Point", mrb->object_class);
-MRB_SET_INSTANCE_TT(point, MRB_TT_CDATA);
-mrb_define_method(mrb, point, "initialize", point_init, MRB_ARGS_REQ(2));
-mrb_define_method(mrb, point, "x", point_x, MRB_ARGS_NONE());
-```
-
-## Exception Handling
-
-### Raising Exceptions
-
-```c
-mrb_raise(mrb, E_RUNTIME_ERROR, "something went wrong");
-mrb_raisef(mrb, E_ARGUMENT_ERROR, "expected %d, got %d", expected, actual);
-mrb_raise(mrb, E_TYPE_ERROR, "wrong type");
-```
-
-Common exception classes: `E_RUNTIME_ERROR`, `E_TYPE_ERROR`,
-`E_ARGUMENT_ERROR`, `E_RANGE_ERROR`, `E_NAME_ERROR`,
-`E_NOMETHOD_ERROR`, `E_NOTIMP_ERROR`, `E_KEY_ERROR`.
-
-### Catching Exceptions
-
-```c
-/* Check after mrb_load_string or mrb_funcall */
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_string(mrb, code);
-if (mrb->exc) {
-  mrb_print_error(mrb);
-  mrb->exc = NULL;  /* clear exception */
-}
-```
-
-### Protected Execution
-
-`mrb_protect()` executes a function under protection. If an
-exception is raised, it is captured as a return value instead of
-propagating:
-
-```c
-static mrb_value
-safe_operation(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value data)
-{
-  /* This function might raise an exception */
-  return mrb_funcall(mrb, data, "do_something", 0);
-}
-
-mrb_bool error;
-mrb_value result = mrb_protect(mrb, safe_operation, data, &error);
-if (error) {
-  /* result contains the exception object; mrb->exc is cleared */
-  mrb_value inspect = mrb_inspect(mrb, result);
-  fprintf(stderr, "Error: %s\n", mrb_str_to_cstr(mrb, inspect));
-}
-```
-
-**Note:** `mrb_protect` clears `mrb->exc` after catching the
-exception. The exception is returned as `result`. Do not use
-`mrb_print_error()` after `mrb_protect` — it reads `mrb->exc`
-which is already `NULL`.
-
-For lower-level protection with a `void*` callback:
-
-```c
-static mrb_value
-body(mrb_state *mrb, void *userdata)
-{
-  /* ... */
-}
-
-mrb_bool error;
-mrb_value result = mrb_protect_error(mrb, body, userdata, &error);
-```
-
-### Rescue
-
-`mrb_rescue()` catches `StandardError` (like Ruby's `rescue`):
-
-```c
-static mrb_value
-body_func(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value body_data)
-{
-  return mrb_funcall(mrb, body_data, "risky_method", 0);
-}
-
-static mrb_value
-rescue_func(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value rescue_data)
-{
-  /* handle error, rescue_data is the data passed in */
-  return mrb_nil_value();
-}
-
-mrb_value result = mrb_rescue(mrb, body_func, body_data,
-                              rescue_func, rescue_data);
-```
-
-To rescue specific exception classes:
-
-```c
-struct RClass *classes[] = {
-  E_ARGUMENT_ERROR,
-  mrb_class_get(mrb, "IOError")
-};
-mrb_value result = mrb_rescue_exceptions(mrb, body_func, body_data,
-                                         rescue_func, rescue_data,
-                                         2, classes);
-```
-
-### Ensure
-
-`mrb_ensure()` guarantees cleanup runs regardless of exceptions
-(like Ruby's `ensure`):
-
-```c
-static mrb_value
-body_func(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value data)
-{
-  return mrb_funcall(mrb, data, "process", 0);
-}
-
-static mrb_value
-cleanup_func(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value data)
-{
-  mrb_funcall(mrb, data, "close", 0);
-  return mrb_nil_value();
-}
-
-mrb_value result = mrb_ensure(mrb, body_func, body_data,
-                              cleanup_func, cleanup_data);
-```
-
-The ensure function always executes. If the body raises an
-exception, the ensure runs and then the exception is re-raised.
-
-### Error State Management
-
-```c
-mrb_bool mrb_check_error(mrb_state *mrb);  /* check and clear mrb->exc */
-void mrb_clear_error(mrb_state *mrb);      /* clear mrb->exc */
-```
-
-## Method Visibility
-
-```c
-/* Public (default) */
-mrb_define_method(mrb, klass, "name", func, MRB_ARGS_NONE());
-
-/* Private - only callable without explicit receiver */
-mrb_define_private_method(mrb, klass, "name", func, MRB_ARGS_NONE());
-
-/* Class method (singleton method on the class object) */
-mrb_define_class_method(mrb, klass, "name", func, MRB_ARGS_NONE());
-
-/* Module function (both module method and private instance method) */
-mrb_define_module_function(mrb, mod, "name", func, MRB_ARGS_NONE());
-
-/* Singleton method on a specific object */
-mrb_define_singleton_method(mrb, obj, "name", func, MRB_ARGS_NONE());
-
-/* Method alias: alias new_name old_name */
-mrb_define_alias(mrb, klass, "new_name", "old_name");
-
-/* Remove a method */
-mrb_undef_method(mrb, klass, "name");
-mrb_undef_class_method(mrb, klass, "name");
-```
-
-All `_method` variants have `_id` counterparts that accept
-`mrb_sym` instead of `const char*` for better performance.
-
-## Proc and Block Handling
-
-### Creating Procs from C Functions
-
-```c
-/* Simple C function proc */
-struct RProc *proc = mrb_proc_new_cfunc(mrb, my_func);
-
-/* C closure with captured local variables */
-struct RProc *proc = mrb_closure_new_cfunc(mrb, my_func, nlocals);
-```
-
-### C Functions with Environment (requires mruby-proc-ext)
-
-Store values in a proc's environment, accessible from the C
-function:
-
-```c
-mrb_value env_values[] = { mrb_fixnum_value(42) };
-struct RProc *proc = mrb_proc_new_cfunc_with_env(mrb, my_func, 1, env_values);
-
-/* Inside my_func, retrieve environment values */
-static mrb_value my_func(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value self)
-{
-  mrb_value val = mrb_proc_cfunc_env_get(mrb, 0); /* index 0 */
-  return val;
-}
-```
-
-## Fiber API
-
-```c
-#include <mruby.h>    /* fiber types and functions */
-```
-
-### Creating and Using Fibers
-
-```c
-/* Create a fiber from a proc */
-mrb_value fiber = mrb_fiber_new(mrb, proc);
-
-/* Resume the fiber with arguments */
-mrb_value args[] = { mrb_fixnum_value(1) };
-mrb_value result = mrb_fiber_resume(mrb, fiber, 1, args);
-
-/* Check if fiber is still alive */
-mrb_bool alive = mrb_test(mrb_fiber_alive_p(mrb, fiber));
-```
-
-### Yielding from C
-
-`mrb_fiber_yield()` can only be used as the return value of a C
-function — no code may execute after it:
-
-```c
-static mrb_value
-my_yield_method(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value self)
-{
-  mrb_value yield_args[] = { mrb_str_new_lit(mrb, "yielded") };
-  return mrb_fiber_yield(mrb, 1, yield_args);  /* must be returned directly */
-}
-```
-
-### Fiber States
-
-| State | Meaning |
-| ----- | ------- |
-| `MRB_FIBER_CREATED` | Created but not yet resumed |
-| `MRB_FIBER_RUNNING` | Currently executing |
-| `MRB_FIBER_RESUMED` | Resumed another fiber |
-| `MRB_FIBER_SUSPENDED` | Yielded, waiting to resume |
-| `MRB_FIBER_TRANSFERRED` | Transferred via `Fiber#transfer` |
-| `MRB_FIBER_TERMINATED` | Finished execution |
-
-**Limitation:** fibers cannot yield across C function boundaries.
-You cannot call `mrb_fiber_yield` from within a C-implemented
-method, except via `mrb_fiber_yield` at function return.
-
-## Compilation Contexts
-
-For advanced compilation control, use `mrb_ccontext`:
-
-```c
-#include <mruby/compile.h>
-
-mrb_ccontext *cxt = mrb_ccontext_new(mrb);
-
-/* Set source filename for error messages and debug info */
-mrb_ccontext_filename(mrb, cxt, "my_script.rb");
-
-/* Compile and execute with context */
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_string_cxt(mrb, "1 + 2", cxt);
-
-/* Clean up */
-mrb_ccontext_free(mrb, cxt);
-```
-
-### Context Options
-
-The `mrb_ccontext` structure provides several flags:
-
-| Field | Purpose |
-| ----- | ------- |
-| `capture_errors` | Collect parse errors instead of raising |
-| `no_exec` | Compile without executing (get RProc) |
-| `no_optimize` | Disable peephole optimizations |
-| `no_ext_ops` | Disable extended operand instructions |
-| `keep_lv` | Preserve local variables across loads |
-
-### Loading with Context
-
-```c
-mrb_load_string_cxt(mrb, code, cxt);         /* string + context */
-mrb_load_nstring_cxt(mrb, code, len, cxt);   /* with explicit length */
-mrb_load_file_cxt(mrb, fp, cxt);             /* file + context */
-mrb_load_detect_file_cxt(mrb, fp, cxt);      /* auto-detect .mrb or .rb */
-```
-
-## Precompiled Bytecode
-
-Load `.mrb` files compiled by `mrbc`:
-
-```c
-#include <mruby/irep.h>
-
-/* From byte array (generated by mrbc -B) */
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_irep(mrb, bytecode);
-
-/* From buffer with explicit size (safer, bounds-checked) */
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_irep_buf(mrb, buf, size);
-
-/* From file */
-FILE *fp = fopen("script.mrb", "rb");
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_irep_file(mrb, fp);
-fclose(fp);
-
-/* Load without executing (returns irep for inspection) */
-mrb_irep *irep = mrb_read_irep(mrb, bytecode);
-```
-
-All `_irep` loading functions have `_cxt` variants that accept
-a compilation context.
-
-### Deployment Pattern
-
-Ahead-of-time compilation eliminates the need for the compiler gem
-at runtime:
-
-```shell
-# Compile to C array
-mrbc -Bscript_bytecode script.rb
-
-# This generates a C header with:
-# const uint8_t script_bytecode[];
-```
-
-```c
-#include "script.mrb.h"
-
-mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open_core();  /* no compiler needed */
-mrb_load_irep(mrb, script_bytecode);
-```
-
-**Important:** wrap bytecode loading in arena save/restore when
-loading multiple scripts:
-
-```c
-int ai = mrb_gc_arena_save(mrb);
-mrb_load_irep(mrb, script1);
-mrb_gc_arena_restore(mrb, ai);
-
-ai = mrb_gc_arena_save(mrb);
-mrb_load_irep(mrb, script2);
-mrb_gc_arena_restore(mrb, ai);
-```
-
-## Symbols
-
-```c
-/* Create symbol from string */
-mrb_sym sym = mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "name");         /* from literal */
-mrb_sym sym = mrb_intern_cstr(mrb, cstr);          /* from C string */
-mrb_sym sym = mrb_intern(mrb, ptr, len);           /* from pointer + length */
-
-/* Symbol to string */
-const char *name = mrb_sym_name(mrb, sym);
-mrb_int len;
-const char *name = mrb_sym_name_len(mrb, sym, &len);
-```
-
-## Instance Variables
-
-```c
-/* Get/set instance variables on an object */
-mrb_iv_get(mrb, obj, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "@x"));
-mrb_iv_set(mrb, obj, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "@x"), val);
-mrb_iv_defined(mrb, obj, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "@x"));
-mrb_iv_remove(mrb, obj, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "@x"));
-```
-
-## Global Variables
-
-```c
-mrb_gv_get(mrb, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "$verbose"));
-mrb_gv_set(mrb, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "$verbose"), mrb_true_value());
-```
-
-## Class Variables
-
-```c
-mrb_cv_get(mrb, klass, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "@@count"));
-mrb_cv_set(mrb, klass, mrb_intern_lit(mrb, "@@count"), mrb_fixnum_value(0));
-```
-
-## Loading and Executing Code
-
-```c
-/* Load and execute a string (requires mruby-compiler gem) */
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_string(mrb, "1 + 2");
-
-/* Load and execute a file */
-FILE *f = fopen("script.rb", "r");
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_file(mrb, f);
-fclose(f);
-
-/* Load precompiled bytecode (no compiler needed) */
-mrb_value result = mrb_load_irep(mrb, bytecode_array);
-```
-
-## GC Arena
-
-When creating many temporary Ruby objects in C, use the GC arena to
-prevent them from being collected prematurely:
-
-```c
-int ai = mrb_gc_arena_save(mrb);
-/* create temporary objects here */
-mrb_gc_arena_restore(mrb, ai);
-```
-
-See [gc-arena-howto.md](gc-arena-howto.md) for details.
-
-## Memory Allocation
-
-```c
-void *p = mrb_malloc(mrb, size);           /* raises on failure */
-void *p = mrb_calloc(mrb, nmemb, size);    /* zero-initialized */
-void *p = mrb_realloc(mrb, ptr, size);     /* resize */
-mrb_free(mrb, p);                          /* free */
-
-/* NULL-returning variants (for custom error handling) */
-void *p = mrb_malloc_simple(mrb, size);
-void *p = mrb_realloc_simple(mrb, ptr, size);
-```
-
-## Type Conversion
-
-```c
-mrb_obj_as_string(mrb, val)      /* to_s */
-mrb_inspect(mrb, val)            /* inspect */
-mrb_any_to_s(mrb, val)           /* default to_s */
-mrb_str_to_integer(mrb, str, base, badcheck)  /* String to Integer */
-mrb_str_to_dbl(mrb, str, badcheck)            /* String to Float */
-mrb_ensure_float_type(mrb, val)               /* ensure Float */
-```
-
-## Object Comparison
-
-```c
-mrb_equal(mrb, a, b)    /* Ruby == */
-mrb_eql(mrb, a, b)      /* Ruby eql? */
-mrb_obj_eq(mrb, a, b)   /* Ruby equal? (identity) */
-mrb_cmp(mrb, a, b)      /* Ruby <=> (returns mrb_int) */
-```
-
-## Object Inspection
-
-```c
-mrb_obj_classname(mrb, obj)          /* class name as C string */
-mrb_obj_class(mrb, obj)              /* class as RClass* */
-mrb_obj_is_kind_of(mrb, obj, klass)  /* is_a? / kind_of? */
-mrb_obj_respond_to(mrb, klass, mid)  /* respond_to? */
-mrb_obj_id(obj)                      /* object_id */
-mrb_obj_freeze(mrb, obj)             /* freeze */
-mrb_obj_dup(mrb, obj)                /* dup */
-```
-
-## Compile-Time Flags
-
-When compiling C code that uses mruby, you must use the same flags as
-the library was built with. Use `mruby-config` to get them:
-
-```console
-$ build/host/bin/mruby-config --cflags    # compiler flags
-$ build/host/bin/mruby-config --ldflags   # linker flags
-$ build/host/bin/mruby-config --libs      # libraries
-```
-
-Key macros that affect ABI:
-
-| Macro | Effect |
-| ----- | ------ |
-| `MRB_NO_BOXING` | Struct-based values (larger, debuggable) |
-| `MRB_WORD_BOXING` | Single-word values (fast, 32-bit safe) |
-| `MRB_NAN_BOXING` | NaN-tagged values (default on 32-bit) |
-| `MRB_NO_FLOAT` | Disable Float support |
-| `MRB_INT64` | 64-bit integers |
-| `MRB_USE_FLOAT32` | 32-bit floats |
-
-Mismatching these between library and application causes silent
-data corruption.

-
-# Getting Started with mruby
-
-This guide walks you through building mruby, running your first Ruby program,
-and embedding mruby in a C application.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-You need:
-
- C compiler (`gcc` or `clang`)
- Ruby 2.5 or later (for the build system)
- `rake` (bundled with Ruby)
- `git` (optional, for cloning the source)
-
-## Building mruby
-
-Clone the repository and build:
-
-```console
-$ git clone https://github.com/mruby/mruby.git
-$ cd mruby
-$ rake
-```
-
-This compiles the default configuration and produces:
-
- `bin/mruby` — Ruby script interpreter
- `bin/mirb` — interactive Ruby shell
- `bin/mrbc` — bytecode compiler
- `build/host/lib/libmruby.a` — library for embedding
-
-## Running Ruby Code
-
-### Interactive shell
-
-```console
-$ bin/mirb
-mirb - Pair interactive mruby
-> puts "Hello, mruby!"
-Hello, mruby!
- => nil
-> 1 + 2
- => 3
-```
-
-### Running a script file
-
-Create `hello.rb`:
-
-```ruby
-puts "Hello from mruby!"
-```
-
-Run it:
-
-```console
-$ bin/mruby hello.rb
-Hello from mruby!
-```
-
-### One-liner
-
-```console
-$ bin/mruby -e 'puts "Hello!"'
-Hello!
-```
-
-## Compiling to Bytecode
-
-mruby can compile Ruby scripts to bytecode (`.mrb` files) for faster
-loading and deployment without source code:
-
-```console
-$ bin/mrbc hello.rb        # produces hello.mrb
-$ bin/mruby -b hello.mrb   # run bytecode
-Hello from mruby!
-```
-
-You can also generate C source from Ruby scripts:
-
-```console
-$ bin/mrbc -Bhello_code hello.rb   # produces hello.c with byte array
-```
-
-This generates a C file with a `const uint8_t hello_code[]` array that
-can be loaded with `mrb_load_irep()` in your C application.
-
-## Embedding mruby in C
-
-The primary use case of mruby is embedding in C/C++ applications.
-
-### Minimal example
-
-Create `embed.c`:
-
-```c
-#include <mruby.h>
-#include <mruby/compile.h>
-
-int main(void)
-{
-  mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
-  if (!mrb) return 1;
-
-  mrb_load_string(mrb, "puts 'Hello from embedded mruby!'");
-  if (mrb->exc) {
-    mrb_print_error(mrb);
-  }
-
-  mrb_close(mrb);
-  return 0;
-}
-```
-
-### Compile and link
-
-Use `mruby-config` to get the correct compiler and linker flags:
-
-```console
-$ gcc -I include `build/host/bin/mruby-config --cflags` embed.c \
-    `build/host/bin/mruby-config --ldflags --libs` -o embed
-$ ./embed
-Hello from embedded mruby!
-```
-
-**Important**: Always use `mruby-config --cflags` when compiling code
-that uses mruby. The build configuration may define macros (such as
-`MRB_NO_BOXING` or `MRB_USE_BIGINT`) that change the internal data
-layout. Compiling without these flags causes silent data corruption.
-
-### Calling Ruby from C
-
-```c
-#include <stdio.h>
-#include <mruby.h>
-#include <mruby/compile.h>
-#include <mruby/string.h>
-
-int main(void)
-{
-  mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
-
-  /* Define a Ruby method */
-  mrb_load_string(mrb, "def greet(name) \"Hello, #{name}!\" end");
-
-  /* Call it from C */
-  mrb_value result = mrb_funcall(mrb, mrb_top_self(mrb),
-                                 "greet", 1, mrb_str_new_lit(mrb, "World"));
-  printf("%s\n", mrb_str_to_cstr(mrb, result));
-
-  mrb_close(mrb);
-  return 0;
-}
-```
-
-### Defining C functions callable from Ruby
-
-```c
-#include <mruby.h>
-#include <mruby/compile.h>
-
-static mrb_value
-my_add(mrb_state *mrb, mrb_value self)
-{
-  mrb_int a, b;
-  mrb_get_args(mrb, "ii", &a, &b);
-  return mrb_fixnum_value(a + b);
-}
-
-int main(void)
-{
-  mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
-
-  /* Define method on Kernel (available everywhere) */
-  mrb_define_method(mrb, mrb->kernel_module, "my_add",
-                    my_add, MRB_ARGS_REQ(2));
-
-  mrb_load_string(mrb, "puts my_add(3, 4)");  /* prints 7 */
-
-  mrb_close(mrb);
-  return 0;
-}
-```
-
-## Loading Precompiled Bytecode
-
-For deployment without the compiler gem, precompile your Ruby code:
-
-```console
-$ bin/mrbc -Bruby_code app.rb
-```
-
-Then load in C:
-
-```c
-#include <mruby.h>
-#include <mruby/irep.h>
-#include "app.c"  /* contains ruby_code[] */
-
-int main(void)
-{
-  mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
-  mrb_load_irep(mrb, ruby_code);
-  if (mrb->exc) {
-    mrb_print_error(mrb);
-  }
-  mrb_close(mrb);
-  return 0;
-}
-```
-
-This approach does not require the `mruby-compiler` gem, resulting in
-a smaller binary.
-
-## Customizing the Build
-
-mruby's functionality is controlled by the build configuration file.
-The default is `build_config/default.rb`.
-
-### Using a custom configuration
-
-```console
-$ MRUBY_CONFIG=build_config/minimal.rb rake
-```
-
-### Selecting gems
-
-Gems add features to mruby. A minimal configuration:
-
-```ruby
-MRuby::Build.new do |conf|
-  conf.toolchain :gcc
-
-  # Core language extensions
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-array-ext'
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-string-ext'
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-hash-ext'
-
-  # Tools
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-bin-mruby'   # mruby command
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-bin-mirb'    # interactive shell
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-bin-mrbc'    # bytecode compiler
-
-  # Compiler (needed for mrb_load_string)
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-compiler'
-end
-```
-
-### Using a gembox
-
-Gemboxes are predefined collections of gems:
-
-```ruby
-MRuby::Build.new do |conf|
-  conf.toolchain :gcc
-  conf.gembox 'default'    # standard set of gems
-end
-```
-
-## Amalgamation (Single-File Build)
-
-For the simplest integration, use amalgamation to combine all mruby
-source into a single `mruby.c` and `mruby.h`:
-
-```console
-$ rake amalgam
-$ gcc -I build/host/amalgam your_app.c build/host/amalgam/mruby.c -o your_app -lm
-```
-
-See [amalgamation.md](amalgamation.md) for details.

-# mruby Language Features
-
-This guide describes the Ruby language features supported by mruby 4.0.
-mruby implements a subset of the Ruby language, optimized for embedded use.
-For a list of specific behavioral differences, see
-[limitations.md](../limitations.md).
-
-**If you are coming from CRuby**, note these major differences upfront:
-
- No `require` or `load` — all code is linked at build time
- No `defined?` keyword — use `respond_to?`, `const_defined?`, etc.
- No refinements (`refine`, `using`)
- No `Encoding` class — UTF-8 opt-in via `MRB_UTF8_STRING`
- Fibers cannot yield across C function boundaries
- Integer size varies by platform and boxing mode
- Operators cannot be overridden by user code

-  handle_arg_error(e)
-rescue StandardError => e
-  handle_error(e)
-ensure
-  cleanup
-end
-
-raise "something went wrong"
-raise ArgumentError, "bad argument"
-```
-
-**Note:** `raise` without arguments in a `rescue` clause does not
-re-raise the current exception. Capture and re-raise explicitly:
-
-```ruby
-begin
-  risky_operation
-rescue => e
-  log(e)
-  raise e  # explicit re-raise required
-end
-```
-
-### Strings
-
-```ruby
-"double-quoted with #{interpolation}"
-'single-quoted literal'
-heredoc = <<~HEREDOC
-  indented heredoc
-  with #{interpolation}
-HEREDOC
-```
-
-### Regular Expressions
-
-Regular expressions require an external gem such as `mruby-regexp-pcre`
-or `mruby-onig-regexp`. Without a regexp gem, `Regexp` literals
-(`/pattern/`) are not available.
-
-### Pattern Matching (Limited)
-
-Only rightward assignment with simple variable binding is supported:
-
-```ruby
-expr => var   # assigns expr to var
-```
-
-`case/in` syntax, array/hash patterns, guard clauses, pin operator,
-find patterns, and alternative patterns are **not** supported.
-
-## Numeric Types
-
-mruby's numeric type sizes depend on the boxing mode and platform.
-
-### Integer
-
-| Configuration | Range |
-| ------------- | ----- |
-| 64-bit word boxing (default on 64-bit) | roughly +/- 2^62 |
-| 32-bit word boxing (default on 32-bit) | roughly +/- 2^30 |
-| NaN boxing (64-bit only) | -2^31 to 2^31-1 |
-
-Integer overflow raises a `RangeError` unless the `mruby-bigint` gem
-is included, in which case integers automatically promote to
-arbitrary precision.
-
-### Float
-
-By default, `Float` uses 64-bit `double`. Compile-time options:
-
- `MRB_USE_FLOAT32`: use 32-bit `float` instead
- `MRB_NO_FLOAT`: disable floating-point entirely
-
-With word boxing on 64-bit, many float values are stored inline
-(without heap allocation) using a rotation encoding.
-
-### Additional Numeric Types (via gems)
-
- **Rational** (`mruby-rational`): exact rational arithmetic
- **Complex** (`mruby-complex`): complex number support
- **Bigint** (`mruby-bigint`): arbitrary-precision integers
-

-
-## Key Differences from CRuby
-
-### No Runtime Loading
-
-mruby has no `require` or `load`. All code (gems, libraries) is
-linked at build time. To add functionality, include the appropriate
-gem in your build configuration:
-
-```ruby
-MRuby::Build.new do |conf|
-  conf.gem :core => "mruby-time"
-end
-```
-
-### No `defined?` Keyword
-
-The `defined?` keyword raises `NameError` instead of returning a
-type string or `nil`. Use alternatives:
-
-```ruby
-# Instead of: defined?(Foo)
-Object.const_defined?(:Foo)
-
-# Instead of: defined?(@var)
-instance_variable_defined?(:@var)
-
-# Instead of: defined?(method_name)
-respond_to?(:method_name)
-```
-
-### Fiber Limitations
-
-Fibers cannot cross C function boundaries. You cannot yield from a
-fiber inside a C-implemented method. Only `mrb_fiber_yield` at
-function return is supported.
-
-### Array and String Subclasses
-
-`Array` and `String` do not support instance variables to reduce memory.
-This means subclassing `Array` or `String` and adding `@fields` will raise an error.
-
-### Operator Overriding
-
-Operators of primitive classes cannot be overridden by user code. 
-Redefining `String#+` has no effect on the behavior of the `+` __operator__.
-
-### Module Loading Hooks
-
-`include`/`prepend`/`extend` do not call `append_features`/
-`prepend_features`/`extend_object` hooks. The module is included
-directly.
-
-### Small Hash Optimization
-
-For small hashes, `#hash` is not called on keys. Custom `#hash`
-methods may not execute for small hash tables.
-
-### No Refinements
-
-Module refinements (`refine`, `using`) are not supported.
-
-### No Encoding Class
-
-There is no `Encoding` class. String encoding is either pure bytes
-or UTF-8 (opt-in via `MRB_UTF8_STRING` compile flag).
-
-### `nil?` in Conditionals
-
-Redefining `nil?` has no effect on conditional expressions.
-The VM uses direct nil checks for performance.
-
-### Integer Precision
-
-Integer size varies by boxing mode (see [Numeric Types](#numeric-types)
-above). Code relying on 64-bit integer precision may behave
-differently on 32-bit or NaN boxing configurations.
-
-## Build-Time Configuration
-
-Key compile-time macros that affect language behavior:
-
-| Macro | Effect |
-| ----- | ------ |
-| `MRB_NO_FLOAT` | Remove all float support |
-| `MRB_USE_FLOAT32` | Use 32-bit float instead of double |
-| `MRB_UTF8_STRING` | Enable UTF-8 string handling |
-| `MRB_INT32` | Force 32-bit integer |
-| `MRB_INT64` | Force 64-bit integer |
-| `MRB_STR_LENGTH_MAX` | Max string length (default 1MB) |
-| `MRB_ARY_LENGTH_MAX` | Max array length (default 2^17) |
-
-See [mrbconf.md](mrbconf.md) for the complete list of configuration
-macros.

-## 3. Heap Regions: Contiguous Memory for GC
-
-By default, mruby allocates GC heap pages individually via `malloc()`.
-On embedded targets with multiple memory banks (e.g., STM32 CCM+SRAM,
-ESP32 PSRAM+IRAM), you may want to place heap pages in a specific
-memory region. `mrb_gc_add_region()` lets you provide a contiguous
-buffer that mruby carves into heap pages.
-
-### API
-
-```c
-#include <mruby/gc.h>
-
-int mrb_gc_add_region(mrb_state *mrb, void *start, size_t size);
-```
-
- **`start`**: pointer to a contiguous memory buffer.
- **`size`**: size of the buffer in bytes.
- **Returns**: number of heap pages carved from the buffer, or 0 if
-  the buffer is too small.
-
-The buffer is aligned internally to pointer size. Each page is
-approximately 40 KB on 64-bit systems (24 KB on 32-bit). The caller
-retains ownership of the buffer and must keep it valid for the
-lifetime of the `mrb_state`.
-
-### Example: Static buffer
-
-```c
-#include <mruby.h>
-#include <mruby/gc.h>
-
-/* 256 KB static buffer -- about 6 pages on 64-bit */
-static char heap_buf[256 * 1024];
-
-int main(void)
-{
-  mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
-  int pages = mrb_gc_add_region(mrb, heap_buf, sizeof(heap_buf));
-  /* pages are immediately available for object allocation */
-
-  /* ... use mrb ... */
-
-  mrb_close(mrb);  /* region pages are cleaned up; buffer is not freed */
-  return 0;
-}
-```
-
-### Example: MCU with multiple RAM banks
-
-```c
-/* STM32 with 64 KB CCM and 128 KB SRAM */
-extern char __ccm_start[], __ccm_end[];   /* linker symbols */
-extern char __sram_start[], __sram_end[];
-
-mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
-mrb_gc_add_region(mrb, __ccm_start, __ccm_end - __ccm_start);
-mrb_gc_add_region(mrb, __sram_start, __sram_end - __sram_start);
-```
-
-### How it works
-
-When `mrb_gc_add_region()` is called, mruby:
-
-1. Aligns the buffer start to pointer size.
-2. Divides the buffer into `mrb_heap_page`-sized chunks.
-3. Initializes each page's freelist and links it into the GC heap.
-4. Records the region in a descriptor for O(1) pointer-to-page mapping.
-
-Region pages participate in the normal GC cycle (mark-and-sweep) like
-any other heap page. The only differences are:
-
- **Never freed**: the GC will not call `free()` on region pages, even
-  if all objects on a page are dead. The page stays in the heap with an
-  empty freelist, ready for reuse.
- **Fallback**: when all region pages are full, mruby falls back to
-  `malloc()` for new pages as usual.
- **Cleanup**: `mrb_close()` frees the internal region descriptor but
-  does not free the buffer itself.
-
-### Sizing
-
-The page size is controlled by `MRB_HEAP_PAGE_SIZE` (default: 1024 slots).
-Each page occupies:
-
-| Platform | Slot size | Page size (approx)  |
-|----------|-----------|---------------------|
-| 64-bit   | 40 bytes  | ~41 KB              |
-| 32-bit   | 24 bytes  | ~25 KB              |
-
-To estimate pages for a given buffer: `pages = buffer_size / sizeof(mrb_heap_page)`.
-Each page provides `MRB_HEAP_PAGE_SIZE` object slots.

-# ROM Method Tables
-
-ROM method tables allow C methods to be registered using static data
-stored in ROM (read-only memory) rather than heap-allocated RAM. This
-saves significant memory on embedded systems where RAM is scarce.
-
-## Motivation
-
-In a default mruby build, `mrb_open()` builds ~40 classes with ~700+
-method entries at startup. Each method entry is heap-allocated via
-individual `mrb_define_method_id()` calls. On a constrained MCU, this
-consumes ~14KB of RAM for method table metadata alone.
-
-ROM method tables eliminate this cost by placing method metadata in
-static `const` data at compile time. Only runtime mutations (e.g.,
-reopening a class to add methods) trigger heap allocation.

-## Architecture
-
-### Chained Layers
-
-Each class has a method table (`mt`) pointer to a linked list of
-`mrb_mt_tbl` layers:
-
-```
-String.mt -> [mutable layer] -> [string_ext ROM] -> [string_core ROM] -> NULL
-```
-
-**Lookup** walks the chain front-to-back, returning the first match.
-The method cache makes repeated lookups O(1), so the chain walk
-only occurs on cache misses.
-
-**Mutation** uses copy-on-write (COW): if the top layer is read-only,
-a new mutable layer is created in front of it. The ROM data is never
-modified.
-
-```
-Before: String.mt -> [string_ext ROM] -> [string_core ROM] -> NULL
-
-After String.define_method(:foo):
-         String.mt -> [mutable: foo] -> [string_ext ROM] -> [string_core ROM] -> NULL
-```
-
-### Memory Layout
-
-Each `mrb_mt_tbl` stores method entries as an array of `mrb_mt_entry`
-structs, each combining a function pointer, a symbol key, and flags:
-
-```
-ptr -> [ entry[0] | entry[1] | ... | entry[N-1] ]
-       |<-- mrb_mt_entry: { val, key, flags } -->|
-```
-
-Values are `union mrb_mt_ptr` (function pointer or proc pointer). Keys
-are pure `mrb_sym` (no flag encoding). Flags are a separate `uint32_t`
-field that stores visibility, func/proc type, and argument spec.
-
-Entries are searched linearly, so source code order does not matter.
-The method cache makes repeated lookups O(1), so the linear scan
-only occurs on cache misses.
-
-### Per-State Wrappers
-
-The `const mrb_mt_entry[]` arrays are truly static and shared across
-the process. However, the `mrb_mt_tbl` wrapper (which carries the
-`next` pointer for chaining) is heap-allocated per `mrb_state` by
-`MRB_MT_INIT_ROM()`. This allows multiple `mrb_state` instances in
-the same process to each have independent method table chains, even
-when linking to the same const entries.
-
-## How to Define a ROM Method Table
-
-### Step 1: Define the Static Data
-
-Include `<mruby/class.h>` (which provides `mrb_mt_entry`,
-`MRB_MT_ENTRY()`, and flag constants) and define the ROM entries:
-
-```c
-#include <mruby/class.h>
-#include <mruby/presym.h>
-
-static const mrb_mt_entry my_rom_entries[] = {
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(my_method_a,  MRB_SYM(method_a), MRB_ARGS_REQ(1)),
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(my_method_b,  MRB_SYM(method_b), MRB_ARGS_NONE()),
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(my_method_eq, MRB_OPSYM(eq),     MRB_ARGS_REQ(1)),
-};
-```
-
-### Step 2: Register in the Init Function
-
-Replace `mrb_define_method_id()` calls with a single
-`MRB_MT_INIT_ROM()` call:
-
-```c
-void
-mrb_mruby_mygem_gem_init(mrb_state *mrb)
-{
-  struct RClass *c = mrb_define_class_id(mrb, MRB_SYM(MyClass), mrb->object_class);
-  MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, c, my_rom_entries);
-}
-```
-
-`MRB_MT_INIT_ROM()` allocates a per-state wrapper and pushes the ROM
-layer onto the class's method table chain.
-
-### Step 3: Verify
-
-Build and run the test suite. ROM tables are semantically transparent
-to Ruby code.
-
-## Reference
-
-### Data Types
-
-Defined in `include/mruby/class.h`:
-
-```c
-union mrb_mt_ptr {
-  const struct RProc *proc;
-  mrb_func_t func;
-};
-
-typedef struct mrb_mt_entry {
-  union mrb_mt_ptr val;
-  mrb_sym key;              /* pure symbol ID (no flags packed) */
-  uint32_t flags;           /* method flags + aspec */
-} mrb_mt_entry;
-
-typedef struct mrb_mt_tbl {
-  int             size;
-  int             alloc;       /* bit 30: MRB_MT_READONLY_BIT */
-  mrb_mt_entry   *ptr;
-  struct mrb_mt_tbl  *next;    /* next (lower-priority) layer, or NULL */
-} mrb_mt_tbl;
-```
-
-### Macros
-
-```c
-/* ROM table entry: 3rd param is MRB_ARGS_*() optionally OR'd with
-   MRB_MT_PRIVATE.  The macro OR's in MRB_MT_FUNC automatically. */
-#define MRB_MT_ENTRY(fn, sym, flags) \
-  { { .func = (fn) }, (sym), (flags) | MRB_MT_FUNC }
-
-/* Extract aspec from combined flags */
-#define MRB_MT_ASPEC(flags) ((mrb_aspec)((flags) & 0xffffff))
-
-/* Allocate a per-state ROM wrapper and push onto class method chain */
-#define MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, cls, entries) \
-  mrb_mt_init_rom(mrb, cls, entries, \
-                  (int)(sizeof(entries)/sizeof(entries[0])))
-```
-
-### Flags
-
-| Flag             | Value   | Description                         |
-| ---------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------- |
-| `MRB_MT_FUNC`    | (1<<24) | C function (auto-set by macro)      |
-| `MRB_MT_PUBLIC`  | 0       | Public visibility (default)         |
-| `MRB_MT_PRIVATE` | (1<<25) | Private visibility (in entry param) |
-
-The third parameter to `MRB_MT_ENTRY()` is an `MRB_ARGS_*()`
-expression optionally OR'd with `MRB_MT_PRIVATE`. The aspec value
-occupies bits 0-23 and the visibility flag occupies bit 25; these
-ranges do not overlap, so the values are simply OR'd together.
-`MRB_MT_FUNC` is set automatically. The no-arg optimization is
-derived at runtime from `aspec == 0` (`MRB_ARGS_NONE()`).
-
-**How to write entries:**
-
- **`MRB_MT_ENTRY(fn, sym, MRB_ARGS_*(...))`**: Public method.
- **`MRB_MT_ENTRY(fn, sym, MRB_ARGS_*(...) | MRB_MT_PRIVATE)`**:
-  Private method.
- Use the same `MRB_ARGS_*()` macros as `mrb_define_method_id()`.
-
-### Symbol Macros
-
-Use the presym macros for keys. See `doc/guides/symbol.md` for the
-full list:
-
-```c
-MRB_SYM(size)       /* size */
-MRB_SYM_B(chomp)    /* chomp! */
-MRB_SYM_Q(frozen)   /* frozen? */
-MRB_SYM_E(name)     /* name= */
-MRB_OPSYM(add)      /* + */
-MRB_OPSYM(eq)       /* == */
-MRB_OPSYM(aref)     /* [] */
-MRB_OPSYM(aset)     /* []= */
-MRB_OPSYM(cmp)      /* <=> */
-MRB_IVSYM(name)     /* @name */
-```
-
-### API
-
-```c
-void mrb_mt_init_rom(mrb_state *mrb, struct RClass *c,
-                     const mrb_mt_entry *entries, int size);
-```
-
-Allocates a per-state `mrb_mt_tbl` wrapper for the const entries and
-pushes it onto the class's method table chain. The wrapper is tracked
-in `mrb->rom_mt` and freed at `mrb_close()`. Use the `MRB_MT_INIT_ROM`
-macro to auto-compute the size. Multiple calls push additional layers,
-which is how extension gems add methods to core classes.
-
-## Entry Correspondence
-
-Each `MRB_MT_ENTRY()` bundles a function pointer with its method name
-and flags in a single line. Their order in the source code does not
-matter, but keeping related methods
-together improves readability.
-
-**Method aliases** (two names for the same function) are expressed as
-separate entries sharing the same function pointer:
-
-```c
-static const mrb_mt_entry str_rom_entries[] = {
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(mrb_str_size, MRB_SYM(size),   MRB_ARGS_NONE()),
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(mrb_str_size, MRB_SYM(length), MRB_ARGS_NONE()),
-};
-```
-
-## Conditional Methods
-
-Methods that depend on build configuration (e.g., `MRB_NO_FLOAT`) can
-use `#ifdef` directly inside the ROM entries array. The `sizeof` in
-`MRB_MT_INIT_ROM()` automatically adjusts to the number of entries
-that survive preprocessing:
-
-```c
-static const mrb_mt_entry integer_rom_entries[] = {
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(int_to_s, MRB_SYM(to_s), MRB_ARGS_OPT(1)),
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(int_add,  MRB_OPSYM(add), MRB_ARGS_REQ(1)),
-#ifndef MRB_NO_FLOAT
-  MRB_MT_ENTRY(int_to_f, MRB_SYM(to_f), MRB_ARGS_NONE()),
-#endif
-};
-```
-
-For conditional methods on a **different class**, use a separate ROM
-table wrapped in the `#ifdef`:
-
-```c
-#ifndef MRB_NO_FLOAT
-static const mrb_mt_entry float_rom_entries[] = { ... };
-#endif
-
-void mrb_init_numeric(mrb_state *mrb) {
-  MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, integer, integer_rom_entries);
-#ifndef MRB_NO_FLOAT
-  MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, fl, float_rom_entries);
-#endif
-}
-```
-
-## Extension Gems
-
-Extension gems use exactly the same pattern. Since gems are
-initialized after core, calling `MRB_MT_INIT_ROM()` pushes the gem's
-ROM layer in front of the core ROM layer:
-
-```c
-/* mrbgems/mruby-string-ext/src/string.c */
-
-static const mrb_mt_entry string_ext_rom_entries[] = { ... };
-
-void mrb_mruby_string_ext_gem_init(mrb_state *mrb)
-{
-  struct RClass *s = mrb->string_class;
-  MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, s, string_ext_rom_entries);
-}
-```
-
-After initialization, String's method table chain looks like:
-
-```
-String.mt -> [string_ext ROM, 53 methods]
-          -> [string_core ROM, 46 methods]
-          -> NULL
-```
-
-A gem may also define ROM tables for multiple classes:
-
-```c
-void mrb_mruby_mygem_gem_init(mrb_state *mrb)
-{
-  MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, mrb->string_class, string_mygem_rom_entries);
-  MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, mrb->integer_class, integer_mygem_rom_entries);
-}
-```
-
-## Methods That Cannot Use ROM Tables
-
-Some methods must remain as `mrb_define_method_id()` calls:
-
- **Class methods** (`mrb_define_class_method_id()`): ROM tables
-  register instance methods only.
- **Module functions** (`mrb_define_module_function_id()`): Same
-  reason.
- **Methods requiring `mrb_state*` at definition time**: For example,
-  methods that create frozen RProc objects during init.
- **Methods on dynamically created classes**: Classes created at
-  init time (not stored in `mrb->xxx_class`) that require
-  `mrb_define_class()` to obtain the class pointer.
- **Cross-class methods** (methods on a class the gem does not own):
-  Each ROM table adds a 16-byte `mrb_mt_tbl` layer to the target
-  class's chain. For 1-2 methods, this overhead exceeds the savings.
-  Use `mrb_define_method_id()` instead -- cross-class methods share
-  the target class's existing mutable layer.
-
-These methods are added after `MRB_MT_INIT_ROM()` and go into the
-mutable layer that sits in front of the ROM chain.
-
-## Runtime Behavior
-
-### Open Classes (COW)
-
-Ruby's open classes work transparently. When a Ruby program or C code
-adds a method to a class with a ROM table, the COW mechanism creates a
-mutable layer:
-
-```ruby
-class String
-  def my_custom_method
-    42
-  end
-end
-"hello".my_custom_method  #=> 42
-"hello".size              #=> 5 (still found in ROM layer)
-```
-
-### Method Removal
-
-`remove_method` works on ROM methods using a tombstone marker. When a
-method in a ROM layer is removed, a special entry (`MRB_MT_FUNC` flag with
-`func=NULL`) is inserted into the mutable layer. The `mt_get()` lookup
-treats this marker as "not found" and stops searching the chain,
-effectively hiding the ROM entry. Unlike `undef_method` (which blocks
-superclass lookup), `remove_method`'s tombstone allows the superclass
-method to be found.
-
-`undef_method` uses a different tombstone (`proc=NULL` without
-`MRB_MT_FUNC`), which is returned by `mt_get()` so the caller raises
-NoMethodError without searching the superclass.
-
-### Class Duplication
-
-`Class.dup` shares the ROM chain. The duplicated class gets an empty
-mutable layer pointing to the same ROM layers as the original. No ROM
-data is copied.
-
-### Garbage Collection
-
-ROM layers are skipped during GC mark and sweep phases. Only mutable
-layers are scanned for live RProc references and freed when the class
-is collected. ROM wrappers are freed at `mrb_close()` via the
-`mrb->rom_mt` tracking list.
-
-### Memory Measurement
-
-`mrb_class_mt_memsize()` reports only mutable layer memory. ROM
-wrappers are tracked separately and not counted per-class.
-
-## Converting Existing Code
-
-To convert existing `mrb_define_method_id()` calls to a ROM table:
-
-1. **Count** the number of method definitions that can be converted.
-
-2. **Create** the ROM entries array using `MRB_MT_ENTRY()`.
-
-3. **Move** each `mrb_define_method_id()` call into the entries:
-   - `MRB_MT_ENTRY(func, sym, aspec)` where:
-     - `func` is the function pointer
-     - `sym` is the symbol macro (e.g., `MRB_SYM(name)`)
-     - `aspec` is the original `MRB_ARGS_*()` macro
-   - For private methods, OR `MRB_MT_PRIVATE` into the aspec:
-     `MRB_MT_ENTRY(func, sym, aspec | MRB_MT_PRIVATE)`
-
-4. **Replace** the calls with `MRB_MT_INIT_ROM(mrb, c, entries)`.
-
-5. **Keep** any methods that cannot be converted (see above) as
-   individual `mrb_define_method_id()` calls after the ROM init.
-
-6. **Build and test**: `rake CONFIG=host-debug -j24 all test:run:serial`
-

-## Overview
-
-mruby's execution pipeline:
-
-```text
-Ruby source → Parser → AST → Code Generator → Bytecode (irep)
-                                                    ↓
-                                                   VM → Result
-```
-
-The design priority is **memory > performance > readability**.
-
-## Object Model
-
-All heap-allocated Ruby objects share a common header (`MRB_OBJECT_HEADER`):
-
-```text
-struct RBasic (8 bytes on 64-bit)
-┌──────────────┬─────┬──────────┬────────┬───────┐
-│ RClass *c    │ tt  │ gc_color │ frozen │ flags │
-│ (class ptr)  │ 8b  │ 3b       │ 1b     │ 20b   │
-└──────────────┴─────┴──────────┴────────┴───────┘
-```
-
-All object structs embed this header via `MRB_OBJECT_HEADER`:
-
-| Struct | Ruby Type | Extra Fields |
-| ------ | --------- | ------------ |
-| `RObject` | Object instances | `iv` (instance variables) |
-| `RClass` | Class/Module | `iv`, `mt` (method table), `super` |
-| `RString` | String | embedded or heap buffer, length |
-| `RArray` | Array | embedded or heap buffer, length |
-| `RHash` | Hash | hash table or k-v array |
-| `RProc` | Proc/Lambda | `irep` or C function, environment |
-| `RData` | C data wrapper | `void *data`, `mrb_data_type` |
-| `RFiber` | Fiber | `mrb_context` |
-| `RException` | Exception | `iv` |
-
-Immediate values (Integer, Symbol, `true`, `false`, `nil`) are encoded
-directly in `mrb_value` without heap allocation. The encoding depends on
-the boxing mode (see [boxing.md](boxing.md)).
-
-Objects must fit within 5 words (`mrb_static_assert_object_size`).
-
-## Virtual Machine
-
-The VM is register-based, using two stacks: a **value stack** for
-registers (locals, temporaries, arguments) and a **call info stack**
-for tracking method/block call frames. Each method call pushes a
-`mrb_callinfo` frame with the method symbol, proc, PC, and argument
-counts.
-
-The dispatch loop in `mrb_vm_run()` decodes opcodes and operates on
-registers. Method dispatch looks up the receiver's class method table
-(with a per-state method cache), then either calls a C function
-directly or pushes a new call frame for Ruby methods.
-
-Exception handling uses `setjmp`/`longjmp` (or C++ exceptions if
-configured). Rescue/ensure handler tables are stored in each irep
-and searched during stack unwinding.
-
-See [vm.md](vm.md) for detailed VM internals, [opcode.md](opcode.md)
-for the full instruction set.
-
-## Garbage Collector
-
-The GC uses **tri-color incremental mark-and-sweep** with an optional
-**generational mode**. Objects are colored white (unmarked), gray
-(marked, children pending), black (fully marked), or red (static/ROM).
-
-The three-phase cycle (root scan, incremental marking, sweep) runs
-in small steps between VM instructions to avoid long pauses. Write
-barriers (`mrb_field_write_barrier`, `mrb_write_barrier`) maintain
-correctness during incremental marking.
-
-The GC arena protects newly created objects in C code. Heap regions
-(`mrb_gc_add_region`) support embedded systems with fixed memory banks.
-
-See [gc.md](gc.md) for detailed GC internals,
-[../guides/gc-arena-howto.md](../guides/gc-arena-howto.md) for arena
-usage patterns, [../guides/memory.md](../guides/memory.md) for memory
-management.
-
-## Compiler Pipeline
-
-The compiler transforms Ruby source code through three stages:
-
-1. **Parser** (`parse.y`): Lrama/Bison grammar produces an AST of
-   `mrb_ast_node` structures, tracking lexer state and local scopes.
-2. **Code Generator** (`codegen.c`): walks the AST and emits bytecode
-   into `mrb_irep` structures (instruction sequence, literal pool,
-   symbol table, child ireps).
-3. **Execution**: the irep is wrapped in an `RProc` and executed by
-   the VM, or serialized to `.mrb` binary format.
-
-Alternative loading paths include `mrb_load_string()` (compile and
-run), `mrb_load_irep()` (load precompiled bytecode), and `mrbc`
-(ahead-of-time compilation).
-
-See [compiler.md](compiler.md) for detailed compiler internals,
-[opcode.md](opcode.md) for the instruction set.

-`MRB_WORDBOX_NO_INLINE_FLOAT`.
-
-### 32-bit Considerations
-
-On 32-bit platforms with 64-bit `double` (the common case),
-`MRB_WORDBOX_NO_INLINE_FLOAT` is automatically defined because a
-64-bit double cannot fit in a 32-bit word. All floats are
-heap-allocated as `RFloat` objects.
-
-The `RFloat` struct uses a `char[]` buffer instead of a `double`
-field to avoid alignment issues, since GC heap slots (RVALUE) on
-32-bit have only 4-byte alignment but `double` requires 8-byte.
-Accessor functions `mrb_rfloat_value()` and `mrb_rfloat_set()` use
-`memcpy` for safe access.
+On 64-bit platforms (unless `MRB_WORDBOX_NO_FLOAT_TRUNCATE`), float values are also packed in the `mrb_value`. In that case, we drop least significant 2 bits from mantissa.
+If you need full precision for floating-point numbers, define `MRB_WORDBOX_NO_FLOAT_TRUNCATE`.

 ## No Boxing

 No boxing represents `mrb_value` by the C struct with `type` and the value union. This is the most portable (but inefficient) representation. No boxing can be specified by `MRB_NO_BOXING`, and it's default for debugging configuration (e.g. `host-debug`).

-# Compiler Pipeline Internals
-
-This document describes mruby's compilation pipeline for developers
-working on the parser, code generator, or bytecode format.
-
-**Read this if you are:** adding new syntax or modifying the parser,
-debugging codegen issues (wrong registers, missing opcodes),
-working with the `.mrb` binary format, or understanding how Ruby
-constructs map to bytecode.
-

-```
-
-## Stage 1: Lexer and Parser
-
-The lexer and parser are combined in a single Lrama/Bison grammar
-file: `mrbgems/mruby-compiler/core/parse.y`.
-
-### Parser State
-
-The parser maintains extensive state in `mrb_parser_state`:
-
- **lstate**: current lexer state (EXPR\_BEG, EXPR\_END, EXPR\_ARG,
-  EXPR\_DOT, EXPR\_FNAME, etc.). Controls how tokens like `+`/`-`
-  are interpreted (sign vs operator) and whether newlines are
-  significant.
- **locals**: stack of local variable lists (one per scope), stored
-  as cons-lists of symbols.
- **lex\_strterm**: string/heredoc parsing state for handling nested
-  interpolation.
- **cond\_stack**, **cmdarg\_stack**: bit stacks tracking
-  conditional and command argument contexts.
- **tree**: root AST node after successful parse.
- **error\_buffer**: accumulated parse errors.
-
-### AST Nodes
-
-The parser produces an AST using two node types:
-
- **Cons-list nodes**: traditional binary tree pairs (car/cdr)
- **Variable-sized nodes**: have a header with `node_type`, `lineno`,
-  and `filename_index`
-
-Key node types include `NODE_SCOPE` (new variable scope),
-`NODE_STMTS` (statement sequence), `NODE_IF`, `NODE_WHILE`,
-`NODE_CALL` (method call), `NODE_DEF` (method definition),
-`NODE_CLASS`, `NODE_RESCUE`, `NODE_ENSURE`, etc. See
-`mrbgems/mruby-compiler/core/node.h` for the complete list.
-
-### Local Variable Tracking
-
-Local variables are tracked per-scope during parsing:
-
- `local_add(sym)`: register a new local variable in current scope
- `local_var_p(sym)`: check if a symbol is a local variable (affects
-  whether an identifier is parsed as a method call or variable
-  reference)
-
-## Stage 2: Code Generator
-
-The code generator (`mrbgems/mruby-compiler/core/codegen.c`) walks
-the AST and emits bytecode into `mrb_irep` structures.
-
-### Codegen Scope
-
-Each lexical scope (method, block, class body) has its own
-`codegen_scope`:
-
-```text
-codegen_scope
-+-- sp             current register index (stack pointer)
-+-- pc             current instruction count
-+-- nlocals        number of local variables
-+-- nregs          maximum register index used
-+-- lv             local variable list
-+-- iseq[]         instruction sequence (grows dynamically)
-+-- pool[]         literal pool (strings, numbers)
-+-- syms[]         symbol table (method/variable names)
-+-- reps[]         child ireps (nested methods/blocks)
-+-- catch_table[]  exception handler entries
-+-- loop           current loop context stack
-+-- prev           parent scope
-+-- mscope         true if method/module/class scope
-```
-
-Scopes nest for blocks, method definitions, and class/module bodies.
-Each scope produces one `mrb_irep`.
-
-### Register Allocation
-
-The code generator uses a simple stack-based register allocator:
-
- Register 0 is always `self`
- Registers 1..nlocals-1 are local variables (in declaration order)
- Registers nlocals..nregs-1 are temporaries
-
-`push()` increments `sp` and tracks the high-water mark in `nregs`.
-`pop()` decrements `sp`. The allocator is linear - it does not
-reuse temporaries within an expression.
-
-### Instruction Emission
-
-Instructions are emitted via helper functions:
-
- `genop_0(opcode)`: no operands
- `genop_1(opcode, a)`: one operand (auto-extends with OP\_EXT1
-  if a > 255)
- `genop_2(opcode, a, b)`: two operands (auto-extends with
-  OP\_EXT1/2/3 as needed)
- `genop_3(opcode, a, b, c)`: three operands
- `genop_W(opcode, a)`: 24-bit operand
- `genop_2S(opcode, a, b)`: one 8-bit + one 16-bit operand
-
-### Peephole Optimization
-
-The code generator performs limited peephole optimizations, such as
-removing redundant `OP_MOVE` instructions and combining consecutive
-literal loads. Optimization is disabled at jump targets and when
-`no_optimize` is set in the compilation context.
-
-### Loop Context
-
-Loop constructs (`while`, `until`, `for`, blocks) push a
-`loopinfo` structure that tracks jump destinations:
-
- `pc0`: destination for `next`
- `pc1`: destination for `redo`
- `pc2`: destination for `break`
-
-Loop types (`LOOP_NORMAL`, `LOOP_BLOCK`, `LOOP_FOR`, `LOOP_BEGIN`,
-`LOOP_RESCUE`) determine how `break`/`next`/`redo` behave.
-
-## IRep Structure
-
-The compiled bytecode is stored in `mrb_irep` (Instruction
-REPresentation):
-
-```text
-mrb_irep
-+-- iseq[]      instruction sequence (mrb_code array)
-+-- pool[]      literal pool (mrb_irep_pool entries)
-+-- syms[]      symbol table (mrb_sym array)
-+-- reps[]      child ireps (nested scopes)
-+-- lv[]        local variable names (for debugging)
-+-- nlocals     local variable count
-+-- nregs       register count (locals + temporaries)
-+-- ilen        instruction count
-+-- plen        pool entry count
-+-- slen        symbol count
-+-- rlen        child irep count
-+-- clen        catch handler count
-+-- debug_info  source file/line mapping
-```
-
-### Literal Pool
-
-Pool entries store constants referenced by instructions:
-
-| Type | Tag | Description |
-| ---- | --- | ----------- |
-| `IREP_TT_STR` | 0 | Dynamic string (heap allocated) |
-| `IREP_TT_SSTR` | 2 | Static string (read-only) |
-| `IREP_TT_INT32` | 1 | 32-bit integer |
-| `IREP_TT_INT64` | 3 | 64-bit integer |
-| `IREP_TT_FLOAT` | 5 | Floating-point number |
-| `IREP_TT_BIGINT` | 7 | Arbitrary-precision integer |
-
-The code generator deduplicates pool entries: identical strings
-and equal numeric values share the same pool index.
-
-### Catch Handler Table
-
-Exception handler entries are appended after the instruction
-sequence in memory:
-
-```text
-mrb_irep_catch_handler
-+-- type       MRB_CATCH_RESCUE (0) or MRB_CATCH_ENSURE (1)
-+-- begin[4]   start PC of protected range
-+-- end[4]     end PC of protected range
-+-- target[4]  jump target when handler fires
-```
-
-During exception unwinding, handlers are searched in reverse order
-(last to first) for the current PC.
-
-## Operand Encoding
-
-Standard instructions use 8-bit operands. When a value exceeds
-255, extension prefixes widen operands to 16 bits:
-
-| Prefix | Effect |
-| ------ | ------ |
-| `OP_EXT1` | First operand (a) becomes 16-bit |
-| `OP_EXT2` | Second operand (b) becomes 16-bit |
-| `OP_EXT3` | Both a and b become 16-bit |
-
-Instruction formats:
-
-| Format | Layout | Size |
-| ------ | ------ | ---- |
-| Z | opcode only | 1 byte |
-| B | opcode + a(8) | 2 bytes |
-| BB | opcode + a(8) + b(8) | 3 bytes |
-| BBB | opcode + a(8) + b(8) + c(8) | 4 bytes |
-| BS | opcode + a(8) + b(16) | 4 bytes |
-| BSS | opcode + a(8) + b(16) + c(16) | 6 bytes |
-| S | opcode + a(16) | 3 bytes |
-| W | opcode + a(24) | 4 bytes |
-
-See [opcode.md](opcode.md) for the full instruction table.
-
-## OP\_ENTER: Argument Specification
-
-`OP_ENTER` encodes a method's argument layout in a 24-bit value
-(W format). The bit fields are defined by the `MRB_ARGS_*` macros:
-
-```text
-Bits 23       no-block flag
-Bits 18-22    required argument count (5 bits, 0-31)
-Bits 13-17    optional argument count (5 bits, 0-31)
-Bit  12       rest argument flag (*args)
-Bits 7-11     post-rest argument count (5 bits, 0-31)
-Bits 2-6      keyword argument count (5 bits, 0-31)
-Bit  1        keyword rest flag (**kwargs)
-Bit  0        block argument flag (&block)
-```
-
-Example: `def foo(a, b=1, *rest, &block)` produces an aspec with
-1 required, 1 optional, rest flag set, and block flag set.
-
-## Presym: Compile-Time Symbols
-
-The presym system pre-allocates symbol IDs at build time for
-frequently used method names and operators. This avoids runtime
-string interning for common symbols.
-
-Generated by `lib/mruby/presym.rb`, the presym table maps symbol
-names to compile-time constants:
-
-| Macro | Example | Symbol |
-| ----- | ------- | ------ |
-| `MRB_SYM(name)` | `MRB_SYM(initialize)` | `:initialize` |
-| `MRB_SYM_B(name)` | `MRB_SYM_B(map)` | `:map!` |
-| `MRB_SYM_Q(name)` | `MRB_SYM_Q(nil)` | `:nil?` |
-| `MRB_SYM_E(name)` | `MRB_SYM_E(name)` | `:name=` |
-| `MRB_OPSYM(op)` | `MRB_OPSYM(add)` | `:+` |
-| `MRB_IVSYM(name)` | `MRB_IVSYM(name)` | `:@name` |
-| `MRB_CVSYM(name)` | `MRB_CVSYM(count)` | `:@@count` |
-| `MRB_GVSYM(name)` | `MRB_GVSYM(stdout)` | `:$stdout` |
-
-## Binary Format (.mrb)
-
-Precompiled bytecode is stored in the RITE binary format:
-
-```text
-Header: "RITE" magic + version ("0400") + CRC + size
-Section IREP: instruction sequences, pools, symbols
-Section DBG:  debug info (optional, filename/line mapping)
-Section LVAR: local variable names (optional)
-Footer: "END\0"
-```
-
-Loading functions:
-
- `mrb_load_irep(mrb, bin)`: load and execute from byte array
- `mrb_load_irep_buf(mrb, buf, len)`: load with explicit size
-  (safer)
- `mrb_read_irep(mrb, bin)`: load without executing (returns
-  `mrb_irep*`)
- `mrb_load_irep_file(mrb, fp)`: load from file
-
-The `mrbc` command-line tool performs ahead-of-time compilation:
-
-```shell
-mrbc -o output.mrb source.rb      # binary format
-mrbc -Boutput source.rb           # C array format
-```
-
-## Compilation Limits
-
-| Limit | Value |
-| ----- | ----- |
-| Max nesting depth | 256 (`MRB_CODEGEN_LEVEL_MAX`) |
-| Max local variables | 255 (uint16 `nlocals`) |
-| Max symbols per irep | 65535 |
-| Max operand (standard) | 255 (8-bit) |
-| Max operand (extended) | 65535 (16-bit) |

-# Garbage Collector Internals
-
-This document describes the internals of mruby's garbage collector
-for developers working on `src/gc.c` and related code.
-
-**Read this if you are:** modifying core data structures that hold
-object references (and need to add write barriers), debugging
-memory leaks or GC-related crashes, tuning GC performance for an
-embedded target, or working on the GC code itself.
-
-**For user-facing GC docs**, see
-[gc-arena-howto.md](../guides/gc-arena-howto.md) (arena usage in C
-extensions) and [memory.md](../guides/memory.md) (heap regions).
-
-## Overview
-
-mruby uses a **tri-color incremental mark-and-sweep** garbage collector
-with an optional **generational mode**. The collector runs in small
-incremental steps between VM instruction execution, avoiding long
-pauses.
-
-## Tri-Color Model
-
-Every heap-allocated object has a color stored in
-`RBasic::gc_color` (3 bits):
-
-| Color | Value | Meaning |
-| ----- | ----- | ------- |
-| White (A or B) | 1 or 2 | Unmarked, candidate for collection |
-| Gray | 0 | Marked, but children not yet scanned |
-| Black | 4 | Fully marked and scanned |
-| Red | 7 | Static/ROM object, never collected |
-
-The GC uses two white types (A and B) in a flip-flop scheme. At the
-start of each GC cycle, the meaning of "current white" is flipped by
-XORing the white bits. This avoids recoloring all live objects at
-cycle boundaries, which is an O(1) operation instead of O(n).
-
-```c
-#define is_dead(s, o) \
-  (((o)->gc_color & other_white_part(s) & GC_WHITES) || \
-   (o)->tt == MRB_TT_FREE)
-```
-
-An object is dead if it still carries the previous cycle's white color.
-
-## Heap Structure
-
-### Heap Pages
-
-Objects are allocated from fixed-size heap pages:
-
-```text
-mrb_heap_page
-+-- freelist        linked list of free slots
-+-- next            next page in heap list
-+-- free_next       next page with free slots
-+-- old             old generation flag (generational mode)
-+-- region          true if carved from a contiguous region
-+-- objects[MRB_HEAP_PAGE_SIZE]   RVALUE array (default 1024)
-```
-
-Each page holds `MRB_HEAP_PAGE_SIZE` objects (default 1024). On
-64-bit systems, a page is approximately 40 KB (40 bytes per slot).
-
-### RVALUE Union
-
-All mruby object types share the same slot size via a C union:
-
-```text
-RVALUE = union of {
-  RBasic, RObject, RClass, RString, RArray, RHash,
-  RRange, RData, RProc, REnv, RFiber, RException, ...
-  struct { RBasic header; RVALUE *next; }  (free slot)
-}
-```
-
-Free slots use the union space for a freelist pointer.
-
-### Freelist
-
-Each page maintains a singly-linked freelist of available slots.
-Allocation pops from the freelist; deallocation during sweep
-prepends to the freelist. The GC tracks pages with free slots in
-`gc->free_heaps` for fast allocation.
-
-### Heap Regions
-
-For embedded systems with fixed memory banks, `mrb_gc_add_region()`
-carves heap pages from a user-provided contiguous buffer:
-
-```c
-static uint8_t heap_buf[64 * 1024];
-mrb_gc_add_region(mrb, heap_buf, sizeof(heap_buf));
-```
-
-Region pages are never freed by the GC (even if all objects die).
-When region pages are exhausted, allocation falls back to `malloc()`.
-
-## GC Phases
-
-The GC operates as a three-state machine:
-
-```text
-GC_STATE_ROOT --> GC_STATE_MARK --> GC_STATE_SWEEP --> GC_STATE_ROOT
-```
-
-### Root Scan (GC\_STATE\_ROOT)
-
-Marks objects directly reachable from the VM:
-
-1. Global variables (`mrb_gc_mark_gv`)
-2. GC arena (`gc->arena[0..arena_idx-1]`)
-3. All built-in classes (Object, Class, Module, etc.)
-4. Top-level self (`mrb->top_self`)
-5. Current exception (`mrb->exc`)
-6. Execution contexts (VM stacks, call info stacks, active fibers)
-7. Task queues (if `MRB_USE_TASK_SCHEDULER` is defined)
-
-After root scanning, the white color is flipped.
-
-### Incremental Marking (GC\_STATE\_MARK)
-
-Gray objects are popped from the gray stack and their children
-marked. Each step processes a limited number of objects:
-
-```text
-limit = (GC_STEP_SIZE / 100) * step_ratio
-```
-
-With default `step_ratio = 200` and `GC_STEP_SIZE = 1024`, the
-limit is 2048 objects per step.
-
-When the gray stack is exhausted, the final marking phase re-marks
-the arena and global variables to catch objects created during
-marking, then transitions to sweep.
-
-### Sweep (GC\_STATE\_SWEEP)
-
-Iterates through heap pages. For each object:
-
- If dead (previous cycle's white): call `obj_free()`, return
-  slot to freelist
- If alive: paint with current white for the next cycle
-
-Sweep is also incremental: `gc->sweeps` tracks the current page
-position between steps.
-
-## Gray Stack
-
-The gray stack is a fixed-size array of object pointers:
-
-```c
-struct RBasic *gray_stack[MRB_GRAY_STACK_SIZE];  /* default 1024 */
-size_t gray_stack_top;
-mrb_bool gray_overflow;
-```
-
-When the stack overflows, `gray_overflow` is set to `TRUE`. During
-marking, `gc_gray_rescan()` scans the entire heap to find any gray
-objects that could not be pushed. This guarantees correctness at the
-cost of a full heap scan.
-
-## Write Barriers
-
-During incremental marking, a black (fully marked) object storing
-a reference to a white (unmarked) object creates a dangerous edge
-that could lead to premature collection. Write barriers prevent this.
-
-### Field Write Barrier
-
-Used when assigning a specific field:
-
-```c
-mrb_field_write_barrier(mrb, parent, child);
-```
-
-If `parent` is black and `child` is white:
-
- During marking or generational mode: paint `child` gray (add to
-  gray stack for scanning)
- During sweep: paint `parent` with current white (demote it for
-  next cycle)
-
-### General Write Barrier
-
-Used when an object has been modified but the specific child is
-not known:
-
-```c
-mrb_write_barrier(mrb, obj);
-```
-
-Paints `obj` gray and pushes it onto the gray stack for re-scanning.
-
-## GC Arena
-
-The arena protects newly created objects from collection before
-they are stored in a reachable location. Every `mrb_obj_alloc()`
-automatically pushes the new object onto the arena.
-
-C extensions must save and restore the arena index when creating
-many temporary objects to prevent arena overflow:
-
-```c
-int ai = mrb_gc_arena_save(mrb);
-/* create temporary objects */
-mrb_gc_arena_restore(mrb, ai);
-```
-
-### Fixed vs Dynamic Arena
-
- **Dynamic** (default): arena grows by 1.5x when full. Risk of
-  unbounded growth if arena is not properly managed.
- **Fixed** (`MRB_GC_FIXED_ARENA`): raises an exception on overflow.
-  Arena size is `MRB_GC_ARENA_SIZE` (default 100).
-
-### Permanent Registration
-
-For long-lived C objects that must survive indefinitely:
-
-```c
-mrb_gc_register(mrb, obj);    /* add to permanent root */
-mrb_gc_unregister(mrb, obj);  /* remove from root */
-```
-
-These store objects in a global array that is always marked as
-part of the root set.
-
-See [gc-arena-howto.md](../guides/gc-arena-howto.md) for detailed
-usage patterns.
-
-## Generational Mode
-
-When enabled (default, unless `MRB_GC_TURN_OFF_GENERATIONAL` is
-defined), the GC classifies objects into young and old generations.
-
-### Minor GC
-
-Only processes young objects. Pages where all objects are old are
-marked with `page->old = TRUE` and skipped entirely during sweep.
-Minor GC always runs to completion in a single step.
-
-### Major GC
-
-A full mark-and-sweep cycle that processes all objects. Triggered
-when `gc->live > gc->oldgen_threshold`. Major GC runs
-incrementally, like the non-generational collector.
-
-After a major GC completes, the collector reverts to minor GC mode.
-The old-generation threshold is recalculated:
-
-```text
-oldgen_threshold = live_after_mark * MAJOR_GC_INC_RATIO / 100
-```
-
-With `MAJOR_GC_INC_RATIO = 120`, a major GC triggers when live
-objects exceed 120% of the last major GC's survivors.
-
-### Transitioning Between Modes
-
-```c
-mrb_gc_generational_mode_set(mrb, TRUE);   /* enable */
-mrb_gc_generational_mode_set(mrb, FALSE);  /* disable */
-```
-
-From Ruby: `GC.generational_mode = true/false`.
-
-## Object Allocation
-
-`mrb_obj_alloc()` is the core allocation function:
-
-1. If `MRB_GC_STRESS` is defined, run a full GC
-2. If `gc->live >= gc->threshold`, run `mrb_incremental_gc()`
-3. Ensure arena has space (`gc_arena_keep`)
-4. Pop an object from the freelist of `gc->free_heaps`
-5. If no free pages, allocate a new page (`add_heap`)
-6. Initialize the object (zero fill, set type and class)
-7. Paint with current white color
-8. Push onto arena (`gc_protect`)
-9. Increment `gc->live`
-
-## Object Freeing
-
-`obj_free()` performs type-specific cleanup:
-
- **Objects/Exceptions**: free instance variable tables
- **Classes**: free method tables and instance variable tables
- **Arrays**: free heap buffer (if not embedded/shared)
- **Hashes**: free hash table
- **Strings**: free heap buffer (if not embedded/shared)
- **Data objects**: call user-provided `dfree` callback
- **Procs**: decrement irep reference count
- **Fibers**: free context (stacks)
-
-The object's type is set to `MRB_TT_FREE` after freeing.
-
-## Triggering GC
-
-### Automatic
-
-GC runs automatically when `gc->live >= gc->threshold` during
-object allocation. After each cycle:
-
-```text
-threshold = (live_after_mark / 100) * interval_ratio
-minimum: GC_STEP_SIZE (1024)
-```
-
-With default `interval_ratio = 200`, GC triggers when live objects
-roughly double.
-
-### Manual
-
-```c
-mrb_full_gc(mrb);          /* force complete GC cycle */
-mrb_garbage_collect(mrb);  /* public API wrapper */
-```
-
-From Ruby: `GC.start`.
-
-## Configuration
-
-### Compile-Time
-
-| Macro | Default | Description |
-| ----- | ------- | ----------- |
-| `MRB_HEAP_PAGE_SIZE` | 1024 | Objects per heap page |
-| `MRB_GRAY_STACK_SIZE` | 1024 | Gray stack capacity |
-| `MRB_GC_ARENA_SIZE` | 100 | Arena size (fixed mode) or initial size |
-| `MRB_GC_FIXED_ARENA` | off | Use fixed-size arena |
-| `MRB_GC_TURN_OFF_GENERATIONAL` | off | Disable generational mode |
-| `MRB_GC_STRESS` | off | Full GC on every allocation (debug) |
-| `MRB_USE_MALLOC_TRIM` | off | Call `malloc_trim()` after full GC |
-
-### Runtime
-
-From Ruby code:
-
-```ruby
-GC.interval_ratio = 200   # threshold = live * ratio / 100
-GC.step_ratio = 200       # objects per incremental step
-GC.generational_mode = true
-GC.start                   # force full GC
-GC.enable                  # re-enable GC
-GC.disable                 # disable GC
-```

 <!-- summary: About mruby Virtual Machine Instructions -->

-# mruby Bytecode
+# The new bytecode

-mruby uses 8-bit instruction opcodes. Each instruction is a single byte,
-allowing up to 256 opcodes. Instructions can take 0 to 3 operands.
+We will reimplement the VM to use 8bit instruction code. By
+bytecode, we mean real byte code. The whole purpose is
+reducing the memory consumption of mruby VM.

-## Operands
+# Instructions

-The size of operands can be either 8 bits, 16 bits, or 24 bits.
-In the instruction table below, the operand type field describes
-the size of each operand.
+Instructions are bytes. There can be 256 instructions. Currently, we
+have 106 instructions. Instructions can take 0 to 3 operands.

- `Z`: no operand
- `B`: 8 bits
- `S`: 16 bits
- `W`: 24 bits
+## operands

-If the first and second operands are of type `B` (8 bits), they may be
-extended to 16 bits by the operand extension instruction immediately
+The size of operands can be either 8bits, 16bits or 24bits.
+In the table.1 below, the third field describes the size
+of operands.
+
+- B: 8bit
+- S: 16bit
+- W: 24bit
+
+If the first and second operands are of type `B` (8bits), they may be
+extended to 16bits by the operand extension instruction immediately
 preceding them.

-## Notes
-
-### OP_SEND0 / OP_SSEND0
-
-These are optimized versions of `OP_SEND` / `OP_SSEND` for zero-argument
-method calls (no operand `c` needed).
-
-### OP_RETSELF / OP_RETNIL / OP_RETTRUE / OP_RETFALSE
-
-These are optimized return instructions that avoid loading a value into
-a register before returning. Common patterns like `attr_reader` methods
-(`return self.@x`) and predicate methods (`return true`/`return false`)
-benefit from these specialized opcodes.
-
-### OP_BLKCALL
-
-Direct block invocation that bypasses method dispatch. Used when calling
-a block argument directly (e.g., `yield` or `block.call`).
-
-### OP_ADDILV / OP_SUBILV
-
-Optimized integer increment/decrement that keeps operands for method
-call fallback when the receiver is not a Fixnum.
-
-### OP_TDEF / OP_SDEF
-
-Optimized method definition. `OP_TDEF` defines a method on the
-`target_class` directly from an irep without creating an intermediate
-`RProc`. `OP_SDEF` does the same for singleton methods.
-
-### OP_MATCHERR
-
-Raises `NoMatchingPatternError` when a pattern match fails. Used by
-the `case`/`in` pattern matching syntax.
-
-### OP_GETIDX / OP_GETIDX0 / OP_SETIDX Optimization
-
-These instructions optimize `[]` and `[]=` access for Array, Hash, and String.
-
-**OP_GETIDX** uses direct function calls:
-
- `Array`: `mrb_ary_entry()` (integer index only)
- `Hash`: `mrb_hash_get()`
- `String`: `mrb_str_aref()` (integer/string/range index)
-
-**OP_GETIDX0** is a specialized variant for index 0 (e.g., `ary[0]`).
-
-**OP_SETIDX** uses direct function calls:
-
- `Array`: `mrb_ary_set()` (integer index only)
- `Hash`: `mrb_hash_set()`
-
-**Fallback to method dispatch** occurs when:
-
- Object is a subclass (e.g., `MyArray < Array`)
- Object has a singleton class (singleton methods defined)
- Index type is not supported (e.g., non-integer for Array)
-
-This allows subclasses to override `[]`/`[]=` while base classes remain optimized.

-# Virtual Machine Internals
-
-This document describes mruby's virtual machine for developers
-working on `src/vm.c` and related code.
-
-**Read this if you are:** debugging method dispatch or call frame
-issues, working on exception handling, implementing new opcodes,
-modifying fiber/coroutine behavior, or optimizing the dispatch loop.
-
-For the instruction set, see [opcode.md](opcode.md). For the
-compiler that generates bytecode, see [compiler.md](compiler.md).
-
-## Execution Model
-
-mruby uses a **register-based VM**. Local variables and temporaries
-occupy fixed register slots determined at compile time. Each method
-call gets its own register window on a shared value stack.
-
-## Execution Context
-
-The VM state is stored in `mrb_context`:
-
-```text
-mrb_context
-+-- stbase..stend    value stack (mrb_value[])
-+-- cibase..ciend    call info stack (mrb_callinfo[])
-+-- ci               current call frame pointer
-+-- status           fiber state
-+-- prev             previous context (fiber chain)
-+-- vmexec           VM execution state flag
-```
-
-The value stack and call info stack grow independently. Each fiber
-has its own `mrb_context`.
-
-### Stack Sizing
-
- Initial value stack: 128 entries (`STACK_INIT_SIZE`)
- Initial call info stack: 32 entries (`CALLINFO_INIT_SIZE`)
- Growth factor: 1.5x (or 2x with `MRB_STACK_EXTEND_DOUBLING`)
- Minimum growth: 128 entries (`MRB_STACK_GROWTH`)
- Max stack depth: `MRB_STACK_MAX` (0x40000 - 128)
- Max call depth: `MRB_CALL_LEVEL_MAX` (512, or 128 with ASAN)
-
-Exceeding either limit raises `SystemStackError`.
-
-When the value stack is reallocated, all `REnv` objects and
-`mrb_callinfo` stack pointers are adjusted by the delta
-(`envadjust` function).
-
-## Call Frames
-
-Each method or block call pushes a `mrb_callinfo` frame:
-
-```text
-mrb_callinfo
-+-- n:4          positional argument count (0-14, 15 = varargs)
-+-- nk:4         keyword argument count (0-14, 15 = varargs)
-+-- cci          call context info (NONE, DIRECT, SKIP, RESUMED)
-+-- vis          visibility flags (public/private/protected)
-+-- mid          method symbol
-+-- proc         current RProc
-+-- blk          block argument (RProc*)
-+-- stack        pointer into value stack
-+-- pc           program counter (bytecode position)
-+-- u.env        closure environment (REnv*)
-+-- u.target_class  receiver's class
-```
-
-### Stack Layout Per Frame
-
-```text
-ci->stack:
-  [0]      self (receiver)
-  [1..n]   positional arguments
-  [n+1..]  keyword argument pairs (key, value, key, value, ...)
-  [bidx]   block argument
-  [bidx+1..] local variables and temporaries
-```
-
-### Argument Count Encoding
-
-The `n` and `nk` fields are 4 bits each (0-15). When `n == 15`,
-positional arguments are packed into a single Array in register 1.
-When `nk == 15`, keyword arguments are packed into a single Hash.
-
-The block index is calculated by `mrb_bidx(n, nk)`:
-
-```text
-if n == 15: n = 1 (array)
-if nk == 15: n += 1 (hash)
-else: n += nk * 2 (key-value pairs)
-return n + 1 (skip self)
-```
-
-### Call Context Info (cci)
-
-| Value | Name | Meaning |
-| ----- | ---- | ------- |
-| 0 | `CINFO_NONE` | Normal VM-to-VM call |
-| 1 | `CINFO_DIRECT` | Explicit VM call (block, lambda.call) |
-| 2 | `CINFO_SKIP` | Skip frame in stack traces |
-| 3 | `CINFO_RESUMED` | Fiber resumed (stop execution) |
-
-## Dispatch Loop
-
-The main loop in `mrb_vm_run()` decodes and dispatches opcodes.
-Two dispatch strategies are available:
-
- **Computed goto** (default on GCC/Clang): a jump table of label
-  addresses (`optable[]`) for direct dispatch. Faster due to
-  better branch prediction.
- **Switch-based** (`MRB_USE_VM_SWITCH_DISPATCH`): a standard
-  `switch(insn)` statement. Default on MSVC and other compilers.
-
-The dispatch loop is wrapped in `MRB_TRY`/`MRB_CATCH` for exception
-handling (see [Exception Handling](#exception-handling)).
-
-## Method Dispatch
-
-When `OP_SEND` (or `OP_SSEND`, `OP_SUPER`) executes:
-
-### 1. Prepare Arguments
-
-Determine argument layout. If argument count < 15, the fast path
-uses inline registers. Otherwise, arguments are packed into an
-Array (varargs mode).
-
-### 2. Push Call Frame
-
-```c
-ci = cipush(mrb, a, CINFO_DIRECT, NULL, NULL, blk, mid, argc);
-```
-
-The new frame's stack starts at the previous frame's stack + `a`
-(the receiver's register index).
-
-### 3. Method Lookup
-
-The lookup sequence:
-
-1. **Method cache check**: hash table lookup by `(class, mid)`.
-   Default cache size: `MRB_METHOD_CACHE_SIZE` (256 entries).
-2. **Method table walk**: if cache misses, search the receiver's
-   class method table (`mt`), then walk the superclass chain.
-3. **Cache store**: on successful lookup, store in the cache.
-
-The method cache is invalidated when classes are modified
-(`mrb_mc_clear_by_class`).
-
-### 4. Invoke
-
- **Ruby method** (irep-based): extend the stack to `irep->nregs`,
-  set `ci->pc` to `irep->iseq`, and jump to the new bytecode.
- **C function**: call `func(mrb, recv)` directly, then pop the
-  call frame and store the return value.
-
-### 5. Visibility Check
-
-Private methods are only callable without an explicit receiver.
-Protected methods are callable from the same class hierarchy.
-Violations raise `NoMethodError`.
-
-## Exception Handling
-
-### setjmp/longjmp
-
-By default, mruby uses `setjmp`/`longjmp` for exception control
-flow:
-
-```c
-MRB_TRY(&c_jmp) {
-  mrb->jmp = &c_jmp;
-  /* dispatch loop */
-}
-MRB_CATCH(&c_jmp) {
-  /* handle exception */
-}
-MRB_END_EXC(&c_jmp);
-```
-
-With `MRB_USE_CXX_EXCEPTION`, C++ `try`/`catch` is used instead.
-
-### Handler Table
-
-Each irep contains a catch handler table (appended after iseq in
-memory) with entries for `rescue` and `ensure` blocks:
-
-```text
-mrb_irep_catch_handler
-+-- type       RESCUE (0) or ENSURE (1)
-+-- begin[4]   start PC of protected range
-+-- end[4]     end PC of protected range
-+-- target[4]  jump target when handler matches
-```
-
-### Unwinding Process
-
-When an exception occurs:
-
-1. Search the current irep's catch handler table (reverse order)
-   for a handler covering the current PC
-2. If an `ensure` handler is found: execute it (may re-raise)
-3. If a `rescue` handler is found: jump to handler code
-4. If no handler: pop the call frame (`cipop`) and repeat with
-   the parent frame
-5. `CINFO_DIRECT` frames are destroyed during propagation
-
-## Block and Closure Handling
-
-### REnv (Environment)
-
-Closures capture their enclosing scope's variables through `REnv`:
-
-```text
-REnv
-+-- stack      pointer to captured variable values
-+-- cxt        owning context (NULL if detached from stack)
-+-- mid        method symbol
-+-- flags      length, block index, visibility
-```
-
-While the defining scope is active, `REnv::stack` points directly
-into the VM value stack (shared). This avoids copying.
-
-### Environment Unsharing
-
-When a closure outlives its defining scope, `mrb_env_unshare()`
-copies the captured variables from the stack to a heap-allocated
-buffer:
-
-```c
-mrb_env_unshare(mrb, env, noraise);
-```
-
-After unsharing, `MRB_ENV_CLOSE(env)` sets `cxt = NULL` to indicate
-the environment is detached. A write barrier is issued for GC
-correctness.
-
-### Proc Types
-
-| Flag | Meaning |
-| ---- | ------- |
-| `MRB_PROC_CFUNC_FL` | C function (not irep-based) |
-| `MRB_PROC_STRICT` | Lambda (strict argument check) |
-| `MRB_PROC_ORPHAN` | No environment attachment |
-| `MRB_PROC_ENVSET` | Has captured environment |
-| `MRB_PROC_SCOPE` | Defines a new variable scope |
-
-## Fiber Switching
-
-Fibers are lightweight coroutines. Each fiber has its own
-`mrb_context` with separate value and call info stacks.
-
-### Fiber States
-
-```text
-CREATED --> RUNNING --> SUSPENDED --> TERMINATED
-                |           ^
-                +-----------+
-                  (yield/resume)
-            TRANSFERRED (via Fiber#transfer)
-```
-
-### Context Switch
-
-On `Fiber#resume`:
-
-1. Save current context state
-2. Set `mrb->c` to the fiber's context
-3. Push arguments onto the fiber's stack
-4. Continue execution in the fiber
-
-On `Fiber.yield`:
-
-1. Save fiber context
-2. Restore the parent context (`mrb->c = c->prev`)
-3. Return yield values to the parent
-
-### Fiber Termination
-
-When a fiber completes (`fiber_terminate`):
-
-1. Unshare any environments that reference the fiber's stack
-2. Set status to `TERMINATED`
-3. Free the fiber's stacks
-4. Switch to the previous context
-
-### C Function Boundary
-
-Fibers cannot yield across C function boundaries. You cannot call
-`Fiber.yield` from within a C-implemented method (except via
-`mrb_fiber_yield` at return). This is because C call frames cannot
-be suspended and resumed.
-
-## GC Integration
-
-The VM saves the arena index at the start of the dispatch loop:
-
-```c
-int ai = mrb_gc_arena_save(mrb);
-```
-
-After each C function call, the arena is shrunk back:
-
-```c
-mrb_gc_arena_shrink(mrb, ai);
-```
-
-This prevents temporary objects created by C functions from
-accumulating in the arena.
-
-Write barriers are issued when environments are detached or closed,
-ensuring the incremental GC correctly tracks live references.

-
-## Pattern Matching
-
-Pattern matching is only partially supported in mruby. Currently, only the rightward assignment operator (`=>`) with simple variable binding is implemented.
-
-```ruby
-expr => var  # Supported: assigns expr to var
-```
-
-#### CRuby
-
-Full pattern matching with `case/in` syntax and various pattern types:
-
-```ruby
-case [1, 2, 3]
-in [a, b, c]
-  puts "#{a}, #{b}, #{c}"  # => "1, 2, 3"
-end
-
-case {name: "Alice", age: 30}
-in {name:, age:}
-  puts "#{name} is #{age}"  # => "Alice is 30"
-end
-```
-
-#### mruby
-
-Only rightward assignment with simple variable binding:
-
-```ruby
-[1, 2, 3] => x
-puts x  # => [1, 2, 3]
-```
-
-The following are **not supported**:
-
- `case/in` syntax
- Array patterns: `in [a, b, c]`
- Hash patterns: `in {name:, age:}`
- Guard clauses: `in pattern if condition`
- Pin operator: `in ^variable`
- Find patterns: `in [*, x, *]`
- Alternative patterns: `in pattern1 | pattern2`
- Boolean pattern check: `value in pattern`
-
-Note: mruby does provide `Array#deconstruct` and `Hash#deconstruct_keys` methods for future pattern matching compatibility.
-
-## No Refinements
-
-Module refinements (`refine`, `using`) are not supported in mruby.
-
-## No `Encoding` Class
-
-mruby does not have an `Encoding` class. Strings are treated as
-byte sequences by default. UTF-8 aware string operations can be
-enabled with the `MRB_UTF8_STRING` compile flag.
-
-## Integer Precision Varies by Boxing Mode
-
-Integer size depends on the value boxing configuration:
-
-| Configuration | Integer range |
-| ------------- | ------------- |
-| Word boxing, 64-bit (default) | roughly +/- 2^62 |
-| Word boxing, 32-bit (default) | roughly +/- 2^30 |
-| NaN boxing (64-bit only) | -2^31 to 2^31-1 |
-
-Code relying on 64-bit integer precision may behave differently
-across configurations. The `mruby-bigint` gem provides
-arbitrary-precision integers when included.
-
-## No `ObjectSpace.each_object` by Default
-
-`ObjectSpace` is only available via the `mruby-objectspace` gem
-(included in the `stdlib` gembox). Even with the gem,
-`ObjectSpace.each_object` has limited functionality compared
-to CRuby.

- *  Calls `func` via `mrb_protect_error()` and then always executes the user block exactly once.
- *  Even if a global jump (similar to a Ruby exception) occurs within `func`, the block will be executed,
- *  and after the block's completion, the global jump will be re-thrown.
- *
- *  By checking `mrb->exc != NULL` within the block, you can determine if a global jump occurred in `func`.
- *
- *  If you want to suppress the global jump and continue processing, use `mrb_clear_error(mrb); break;`.
- *

- *  - `result_var`: Pre-defined mrb_value type variable (to receive `func`'s return value)
- *  - `func`: Function to call (compatible with `mrb_protect_error_func`)
- *  - `data`: User data to pass to `func`
- *
- *  Example:
- *
- *      mrb_value result;
- *      MRB_ENSURE(mrb, result, body_func, userdata) {
- *        // This block is always executed (equivalent to Ruby's ensure)

-# hal-posix-task
-
-POSIX Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) implementation for mruby-task.
-
-## Description
-
-Provides timer and interrupt support for the mruby-task cooperative scheduler on POSIX-compliant platforms. Uses `SIGALRM` and `setitimer()` for periodic timer ticks, and `sigprocmask()` for interrupt protection.
-
-## Supported Platforms
-
- Linux
- macOS
- BSD (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD)
- Other POSIX-compliant Unix systems
-
-## Requirements
-
- POSIX-compliant operating system
- Signal support (`SIGALRM`, `sigaction`, `sigprocmask`)
- Timer support (`setitimer`, `ITIMER_REAL`)
-
-## Usage
-
-### Explicit HAL Selection (Recommended)
-
-```ruby
-MRuby::Build.new do |conf|
-  # ... other configuration ...
-
-  # Specify POSIX HAL - automatically brings in mruby-task
-  conf.gem core: 'hal-posix-task'
-end
-```
-
-### Auto-detection (Development)
-
-```ruby
-MRuby::Build.new do |conf|
-  # ... other configuration ...
-
-  # Auto-detects and selects hal-posix-task on POSIX platforms
-  conf.gem core: 'mruby-task'
-end
-```
-
-## Implementation Details
-
-### Timer Mechanism
-
- Uses `setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, ...)` to generate periodic `SIGALRM` signals
- Timer interval configured by `MRB_TICK_UNIT` (default: 4ms)
- Signal handler calls `mrb_tick()` for all registered VM instances
-
-### Interrupt Protection
-
- Critical sections protected using `sigprocmask()` to block `SIGALRM`
- Prevents race conditions during task queue modifications
- Supports nested critical sections through signal masking
-
-### Multi-VM Support
-
- Supports up to `MRB_TASK_MAX_VMS` concurrent mruby VM instances (default: 8)
- Single shared timer ticks all registered VMs
- Per-VM task counters optimize timer usage (timer disabled when idle)
-
-### Timer Optimization
-
-The implementation dynamically enables/disables the timer based on task state:
-
- **Timer enabled** when: Multiple ready tasks OR any waiting tasks exist
- **Timer disabled** when: Single task or all tasks dormant/suspended
- Reduces CPU usage and power consumption when scheduler is idle
-
-## Configuration
-
-Override these macros in your build config if needed:
-
-```ruby
-conf.gem core: 'hal-posix-task' do |spec|
-  # Custom tick interval (10ms instead of default 4ms)
-  spec.build.defines << 'MRB_TICK_UNIT=10'
-
-  # Custom timeslice (5 ticks instead of default 3)
-  spec.build.defines << 'MRB_TIMESLICE_TICK_COUNT=5'
-
-  # More concurrent VMs (16 instead of default 8)
-  spec.build.defines << 'MRB_TASK_MAX_VMS=16'
-end
-```
-
-## Known Limitations
-
- `SIGALRM` conflicts with other code using the same signal
- Timer resolution limited by platform (typically 1-10ms)
- Signal delivery may be delayed under heavy system load
- Not suitable for hard real-time requirements
-

- `hal-win-task` - Windows HAL implementation
