[PATCH] lib/net/protocol.rb: avoid exceptions in rbuf_fill

Added by normalperson (Eric Wong) almost 13 years ago. Updated over 2 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Target version:
-
[ruby-core:35636]

Description

Blindly hitting IO#read_nonblock() and raising is expensive due
to two factors:

  1. method cache being scanned/cleared when the IO::WaitReadable
    extended class is GC-ed
  2. backtrace generation

This reduces the likelyhood of an IO::WaitReadable exception,
but spurious wakeup can still occur due to bad TCP checksums.

This optimization only applies to non-OpenSSL sockets. I am
using IO#wait here instead of IO.select() since IO#wait is not
available on OpenSSL sockets.
