ruby crash in rb_gc_mark

Description

ruby crashes on me fairly regularly while working on a rails app. It happens after a file has changed and the guard gem fires up some tests. It appears to be happening when running rubycritic via guard:

running flog smells

running reek smells

It should be marking miss failure.
Could you give us the way to reproduce it?

I can confirm having the same issue. It's intermediate but reproducible, and affects both 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 versions.

The setup is simple:

  • OS X (macOS 10.12.5 with latest patches)
  • XCode command line tools (also latest)
  • rbenv with ruby-install (installed via Homebrew)

The guard Ruby gem is installed and run using fsnotify events to trigger builds, and it would randomly crash Ruby interpreter. Sometimes at the very beginning, sometimes after running a while.

Since I test against multiple Ruby versions, I can confirm that this does not happen on 2.2.6 and 2.3.3, only 2.4.x family is affected.

If you can modify MRI source code, please try to change RGENGC_CHECK_MODE in gc.c to 2 and run your program on your modified MRI again.
It will inserts many assertions and it may help.

Thanks,
Koichi

Is this same to #13605 and fixed at r59063?

I get the same error running the Pry rspec suite.

[BUG] rb_gc_mark(): 0x000000036d2bc8 is T_NONE

The value 0x000000036d2bc8 varies.

Using ruby 2.4.2p161 (2017-07-23 revision 59409) [x86_64-linux]

When I change RGENGC_CHECK_MODE in gc.c to 2, it fails every time and I get this output

could you with check recent trunk (2.5dev)? I'm not sure recent 2.4 has backport patch (r59063).

Updated by djellemah (John Anderson) about 7 years ago

I see r59063 went into ruby_2_4 yesterday.

I've been running the Pry rspec suite repeatedly with

ruby 2.5.0dev (2017-08-05 trunk 59519) [x86_64-linux]

ruby 2.4.2p181 (2017-08-05 revision 59520) [x86_64-linux]

and I don't get the crash.

Thanks :-)
