Bug #16366
closed.count on endless range causes infinite loop
Added by duffyjp (Jacob Duffy) almost 5 years ago. Updated almost 5 years ago.
Description
Out of curiosity, I tried:
(1..).count
Which resulted in an unkillable 100% CPU irb session.
I expected either an exception or maybe Infinity
Thanks

Sounds like a bug - counting to infinity is not easy. :)

I don't think infinite loop is a bug, but having no chance to ^C
is definitely wrong. Must be able to interrupt.

Attached is a patch that allows interrupting the iteration. It uses rb_thread_check_ints
in each loop iteration for Range#count calls (unless a block is passed, as the block case is already interruptable).
Updated by matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) almost 5 years ago
Enumerable#count
should aware of interrupts. Besides this case, #count
should return Infinity
(we may need to define Range#count
).

check interrupts at each frame pop timing.
Asynchronous events such as signal trap, finalization timing,
thread switching and so on are managed by "interrupt_flag".
Ruby's threads check this flag periodically and if a thread
does not check this flag, above events doesn't happen.
This checking is CHECK_INTS() (related) macro and it is placed
at some places (laeve instruction and so on). However, at the end
of C methods, C blocks (IMEMO_IFUNC) etc there are no checking
and it can introduce uninterruptible thread.
To modify this situation, we decide to place CHECK_INTS() at
vm_pop_frame(). It increases interrupt checking points.
[Bug #16366]
This patch can introduce unexpected events...
Updated by ko1 (Koichi Sasada) almost 5 years ago
I introduce general solution.
Notes:
- there are no "(1..).count" test. can anyone write it?
- My fix can introduce additional problems because it increases interrupt points. Please report us if you find a problem on your app.
- My fix can introduce additional overhead (checking interrupts). I tried to reduce this overhead by rewriting checking code, however, the original code (no modification code) is fastest :p
