# \Ractor is an Actor-model abstraction for Ruby that provides thread-safe parallel execution. # # Ractor.new makes a new \Ractor, which can run in parallel. # # # The simplest ractor # r = Ractor.new {puts "I am in Ractor!"} # r.take # wait for it to finish # # Here, "I am in Ractor!" is printed # # Ractors do not share all objects with each other. There are two main benefits to this: across ractors, thread-safety # concerns such as data-races and race-conditions are not possible. The other benefit is parallelism. # # To achieve this, object sharing is limited across ractors. # For example, unlike in threads, ractors can't access all the objects available in other ractors. Even objects normally # available through variables in the outer scope are prohibited from being used across ractors. # # a = 1 # r = Ractor.new {puts "I am in Ractor! a=#{a}"} # # fails immediately with # # ArgumentError (can not isolate a Proc because it accesses outer variables (a).) # # The object must be explicitly shared: # a = 1 # r = Ractor.new(a) { |a1| puts "I am in Ractor! a=#{a1}"} # # On CRuby (the default implementation), Global Virtual Machine Lock (GVL) is held per ractor, so # ractors can perform in parallel without locking each other. This is unlike the situation with threads # on CRuby. # # Instead of accessing shared state, objects should be passed to and from ractors by # sending and receiving them as messages. # # a = 1 # r = Ractor.new do # a_in_ractor = receive # receive blocks until somebody passes a message # puts "I am in Ractor! a=#{a_in_ractor}" # end # r.send(a) # pass it # r.take # # Here, "I am in Ractor! a=1" is printed # # There are two pairs of methods for sending/receiving messages: # # * Ractor#send and Ractor.receive for when the _sender_ knows the receiver (push); # * Ractor.yield and Ractor#take for when the _receiver_ knows the sender (pull); # # In addition to that, any arguments passed to Ractor.new are passed to the block and available there # as if received by Ractor.receive, and the last block value is sent outside of the # ractor as if sent by Ractor.yield. # # A little demonstration of a classic ping-pong: # # server = Ractor.new(name: "server") do # puts "Server starts: #{self.inspect}" # puts "Server sends: ping" # Ractor.yield 'ping' # The server doesn't know the receiver and sends to whoever interested # received = Ractor.receive # The server doesn't know the sender and receives from whoever sent # puts "Server received: #{received}" # end # # client = Ractor.new(server) do |srv| # The server is sent to the client, and available as srv # puts "Client starts: #{self.inspect}" # received = srv.take # The client takes a message from the server # puts "Client received from " \ # "#{srv.inspect}: #{received}" # puts "Client sends to " \ # "#{srv.inspect}: pong" # srv.send 'pong' # The client sends a message to the server # end # # [client, server].each(&:take) # Wait until they both finish # # This will output something like: # # Server starts: # # Server sends: ping # Client starts: # # Client received from #: ping # Client sends to #: pong # Server received: pong # # Ractors receive their messages via the incoming port, and send them # to the outgoing port. Either one can be disabled with Ractor#close_incoming and # Ractor#close_outgoing, respectively. When a ractor terminates, its ports are closed # automatically. # # == Shareable and unshareable objects # # When an object is sent to and from a ractor, it's important to understand whether the # object is shareable or unshareable. Most Ruby objects are unshareable objects. Even # frozen objects can be unshareable if they contain (through their instance variables) unfrozen # objects. # # Shareable objects are those which can be used by several threads without compromising # thread-safety, for example numbers, +true+ and +false+. Ractor.shareable? allows you to check this, # and Ractor.make_shareable tries to make the object shareable if it's not already, and gives an error # if it can't do it. # # Ractor.shareable?(1) #=> true -- numbers and other immutable basic values are shareable # Ractor.shareable?('foo') #=> false, unless the string is frozen due to # frozen_string_literal: true # Ractor.shareable?('foo'.freeze) #=> true # Ractor.shareable?([Object.new].freeze) #=> false, inner object is unfrozen # # ary = ['hello', 'world'] # ary.frozen? #=> false # ary[0].frozen? #=> false # Ractor.make_shareable(ary) # ary.frozen? #=> true # ary[0].frozen? #=> true # ary[1].frozen? #=> true # # When a shareable object is sent (via #send or Ractor.yield), no additional processing occurs # on it. It just becomes usable by both ractors. When an unshareable object is sent, it can be # either _copied_ or _moved_. The first is the default, and it copies the object fully by # deep cloning (Object#clone) the non-shareable parts of its structure. # # data = ['foo', 'bar'.freeze] # r = Ractor.new do # data2 = Ractor.receive # puts "In ractor: #{data2.object_id}, #{data2[0].object_id}, #{data2[1].object_id}" # end # r.send(data) # r.take # puts "Outside : #{data.object_id}, #{data[0].object_id}, #{data[1].object_id}" # # This will output something like: # # In ractor: 340, 360, 320 # Outside : 380, 400, 320 # # Note that the object ids of the array and the non-frozen string inside the array have changed in # the ractor because they are different objects. The second array's element, which is a # shareable frozen string, is the same object. # # Deep cloning of objects may be slow, and sometimes impossible. Alternatively, move: true may # be used during sending. This will move the unshareable object to the receiving ractor, making it # inaccessible to the sending ractor. # # data = ['foo', 'bar'] # r = Ractor.new do # data_in_ractor = Ractor.receive # puts "In ractor: #{data_in_ractor.object_id}, #{data_in_ractor[0].object_id}" # end # r.send(data, move: true) # r.take # puts "Outside: moved? #{Ractor::MovedObject === data}" # puts "Outside: #{data.inspect}" # # This will output: # # In ractor: 100, 120 # Outside: moved? true # test.rb:9:in `method_missing': can not send any methods to a moved object (Ractor::MovedError) # # Notice that even +inspect+ (and more basic methods like __id__) is inaccessible # on a moved object. # # Class and Module objects are shareable so the class/module definitions are shared between ractors. # \Ractor objects are also shareable. All operations on shareable objects are thread-safe, so the thread-safety property # will be kept. We can not define mutable shareable objects in Ruby, but C extensions can introduce them. # # It is prohibited to access (get) instance variables of shareable objects in other ractors if the values of the # variables aren't shareable. This can occur because modules/classes are shareable, but they can have # instance variables whose values are not. In non-main ractors, it's also prohibited to set instance # variables on classes/modules (even if the value is shareable). # # class C # class << self # attr_accessor :tricky # end # end # # C.tricky = "unshareable".dup # # r = Ractor.new(C) do |cls| # puts "I see #{cls}" # puts "I can't see #{cls.tricky}" # cls.tricky = true # doesn't get here, but this would also raise an error # end # r.take # # I see C # # can not access instance variables of classes/modules from non-main Ractors (RuntimeError) # # Ractors can access constants if they are shareable. The main \Ractor is the only one that can # access non-shareable constants. # # GOOD = 'good'.freeze # BAD = 'bad'.dup # # r = Ractor.new do # puts "GOOD=#{GOOD}" # puts "BAD=#{BAD}" # end # r.take # # GOOD=good # # can not access non-shareable objects in constant Object::BAD by non-main Ractor. (NameError) # # # Consider the same C class from above # # r = Ractor.new do # puts "I see #{C}" # puts "I can't see #{C.tricky}" # end # r.take # # I see C # # can not access instance variables of classes/modules from non-main Ractors (RuntimeError) # # See also the description of # shareable_constant_value pragma in # {Comments syntax}[rdoc-ref:syntax/comments.rdoc] explanation. # # == Ractors vs threads # # Each ractor has its own main Thread. New threads can be created from inside ractors # (and, on CRuby, they share the GVL with other threads of this ractor). # # r = Ractor.new do # a = 1 # Thread.new {puts "Thread in ractor: a=#{a}"}.join # end # r.take # # Here "Thread in ractor: a=1" will be printed # # == Note on code examples # # In the examples below, sometimes we use the following method to wait for ractors that # are not currently blocked to finish (or to make progress). # # def wait # sleep(0.1) # end # # It is **only for demonstration purposes** and shouldn't be used in a real code. # Most of the time, #take is used to wait for ractors to finish. # # == Reference # # See {Ractor design doc}[rdoc-ref:ractor.md] for more details. # class Ractor # # call-seq: # Ractor.new(*args, name: nil) {|*args| block } -> ractor # # Create a new \Ractor with args and a block. # # The given block (Proc) will be isolated (can't access any outer variables). +self+ # inside the block will refer to the current \Ractor. # # r = Ractor.new { puts "Hi, I am #{self.inspect}" } # r.take # # Prints "Hi, I am #" # # Any +args+ passed are propagated to the block arguments by the same rules as # objects sent via #send/Ractor.receive.
