This fixes issues with paths being loaded twice in certain cases when symlinks are used. It took me multiple attempts to get this working. My original attempt tried to convert paths to realpaths before adding them to $LOADED_FEATURES. Unfortunately, this doesn't work well with the loaded feature index, which is based off load paths and not realpaths. While I was able to get require working, I'm fairly sure the loaded feature index was not being used as expected, which would have significant performance implications. Additionally, I was never able to get that approach working with autoload when autoloading a non-realpath file. It also broke some specs. This takes a more conservative approach. Directly before loading the file, if the file with the same realpath has been required, the loading of the file is skipped. The realpaths are stored as fstrings in a hidden hash. When rebuilding the loaded feature index, the hash of realpaths is also rebuilt. I'm guessing this makes rebuilding process slower, but I don think that is a hot path. In general, modifying loaded features is only done when reloading, and that tends to be in non-production environments. Change test_require_with_loaded_features_pop test to use 30 threads and 300 iterations, instead of 4 threads and 1000 iterations. I saw only sporadic failures with 4/1000, but consistent failures 30/300 threads. These failures were due to the fact that the concurrent deletions from $LOADED_FEATURES in other threads can result in rb_ary_entry returning nil when rebuilding the loaded features index. To avoid concurrency issues when rebuilding the loaded features index, the building of the index itself is left alone, and afterwards, a separate loop is done on a copy of the loaded feature snapshot in order to rebuild the realpaths hash.

What's Ruby
Ruby is an interpreted object-oriented programming language often used for web development. It also offers many scripting features to process plain text and serialized files, or manage system tasks. It is simple, straightforward, and extensible.
Features of Ruby
- Simple Syntax
- Normal Object-oriented Features (e.g. class, method calls)
- Advanced Object-oriented Features (e.g. mix-in, singleton-method)
- Operator Overloading
- Exception Handling
- Iterators and Closures
- Garbage Collection
- Dynamic Loading of Object Files (on some architectures)
- Highly Portable (works on many Unix-like/POSIX compatible platforms as well as Windows, macOS, etc.) cf. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/doc/contributing.rdoc#label-Platform+Maintainers
How to get Ruby
For a complete list of ways to install Ruby, including using third-party tools like rvm, see:
https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/
Git
The mirror of the Ruby source tree can be checked out with the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/ruby/ruby.git
There are some other branches under development. Try the following command to see the list of branches:
$ git ls-remote https://github.com/ruby/ruby.git
You may also want to use https://git.ruby-lang.org/ruby.git (actual master of Ruby source) if you are a committer.
Subversion
Stable branches for older Ruby versions can be checked out with also the following command:
$ svn co https://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/branches/ruby_2_6/ ruby
Try the following command to see the list of branches:
$ svn ls https://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/branches/

Requirements to build from repository
- GNU or BSD make
- C99 compiler
- autoconf 2.67 or higher
- automake 1.15 or higher
- bison 2.3 or higher
- Ruby 2.2 or higher
When building from a released version, only a C99 compiler and GNU or BSD make is required.
How to compile and install
-
If you want to use Microsoft Visual C++ to compile Ruby, read win32/README.win32 instead of this document.
-
Run
./autogen.shto generate configure, when you build the source checked out from the Git repository. -
Run
./configure, which will generateconfig.handMakefile.Some C compiler flags may be added by default depending on your environment. Specify
optflags=..andwarnflags=..as necessary to override them. -
Edit
include/ruby/defines.hif you need. Usually this step will not be needed. -
Optional: Remove comment mark(
#) before the module names fromext/Setup.This step is only necessary if you want to link modules statically.
If you don't want to compile dynamic extensions (probably on architectures which do not allow dynamic loading), remove comment mark from the line "
#option nodynamic" inext/Setup.Usually this step will not be needed.
-
Run
make.- On Mac, set RUBY_CODESIGN environment variable with a signing identity.
It uses the identity to sign
rubybinary. See also codesign(1).
- On Mac, set RUBY_CODESIGN environment variable with a signing identity.
It uses the identity to sign
-
Optionally, run '
make check' to check whether the compiled Ruby interpreter works well. If you see the message "check succeeded", your Ruby works as it should (hopefully). -
Run '
make install'.This command will create the following directories and install files into them.
${DESTDIR}${prefix}/bin${DESTDIR}${prefix}/include/ruby-${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/include/ruby-${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/${PLATFORM}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/${PLATFORM}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/site_ruby${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/site_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/site_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/${PLATFORM}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/${PLATFORM}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/lib/ruby/gems/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}${DESTDIR}${prefix}/share/man/man1${DESTDIR}${prefix}/share/ri/${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${TEENY}/system
If Ruby's API version is 'x.y.z', the
${MAJOR}is 'x', the${MINOR}is 'y', and the${TEENY}is 'z'.NOTE: teeny of the API version may be different from one of Ruby's program version
You may have to be a super user to install Ruby.
If you fail to compile Ruby, please send the detailed error report with the error log and machine/OS type, to help others.
Some extension libraries may not get compiled because of lack of necessary
external libraries and/or headers, then you will need to run 'make distclean-ext'
to remove old configuration after installing them in such case.
