Problem description

When using zeus to run a ruby project in an effort to cache dependency loading it gets stuck when calling require 'rubocop' on Ruby 3.0 and 3.1. Everything works fine on Ruby 2.6.

When looking at strace output of the stuck process it shows a writev call that receives an EAGAIN right before the process gets to its stuck state:

[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/number_conversion.rb", iov_len=115}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = 116
[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/numbered_parameter_assignment.rb", iov_len=127}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = 128
[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/or_assignment_to_constant.rb", iov_len=123}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = 124
[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/ordered_magic_comments.rb", iov_len=120}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = 121
[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/out_of_range_regexp_ref.rb", iov_len=121}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = 122
[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/parentheses_as_grouped_expression"..., iov_len=131}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = 132

[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/percent_symbol_array.rb", iov_len=118}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = 119
[pid 24872] writev(14, [{iov_base="/home/jelte/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/gems/rubocop-1.23.0/lib/rubocop/cop/lint/raise_exception.rb", iov_len=113}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 2) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
[pid 24872] getpid()                    = 24872
[pid 24872] ppoll([{fd=14, events=POLLOUT}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 2, NULL, NULL, 8 <unfinished ...>
[pid 24859] <... futex resumed> )       = -1 ETIMEDOUT (Connection timed out)
[pid 24859] select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {tv_sec=0, tv_usec=20}) = 0 (Timeout)
[pid 24859] futex(0x605f38, FUTEX_WAIT, 0, {tv_sec=60, tv_nsec=0}

The exact file at which the process receives the EAGAIN and is stuck is consistent across runs with the same Ruby version (at least on my machine). For 3.1.0 it's raise_exception.rb and for 3.0.3 it's redundant_dir_glob_sort.rb

How to reproduce

See this example repo for minimal steps on how to reproduce this: https://github.com/JelteF/ruby-zeus-bug

Expectation

For Ruby to not get stuck after receiving EAGAIN on the writev call.

I looked into this a bit more. And I'm pretty sure this is related to the introduction of the fiber scheduler.
