Description

I'd like to report that a Rails app with Rack::Deflater enabled responds with a zero-length body on Ruby 2.6.0, to a request with Accept-encoding: gzip request header. It seems to happen at least on x86_64-linux (Ubuntu 18.04.1; see below for procedure for a reproduction) as well as on universal.x86_64-darwin17 (macOS High Sierra 10.13.6; tested about a half year ago). I suspect some kind of change in behavior of pipe or named pipe is causing this.

1: Prepare a Rails app, enable Rack::Deflater, and run the server

$ rbenv install 2.6.0-dev
$ mkdir ruby26-rails-deflater
$ cd ruby26-rails-deflater
$ echo 2.6.0-dev > .ruby-version
$ ruby --version
ruby 2.6.0dev (2018-11-28 trunk 66081) [x86_64-linux]
$ cat <<_END > Gemfile
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '~> 5.2.1'
_END
$ bundle install --path=vendor/bundle
$ bundle exec rails new test-deflater
$ cd test-deflater
$ sed -ie '/config.load_defaults 5.2/a config.middleware.use Rack::Deflater' \
config/application.rb
$ bundle exec rails s

2: Send a request

From another terminal, run the curl command. The 0 in the last line represents the first chunked response body with zero-length. I expect to see the "Yay! You're on Rails!" response body.

$ curl -H 'Accept-encoding: gzip' -v http://localhost:3000 --raw

Puma logs doesn't show anything out of ordinary:

Puma responds as expected without compression:
