We planned to have multiple VMs run side-by-side. The API here was a preparation of that feature. The topic branch was eventually abandoned, and we now have Ractor. This file is kind of obsolescent.

Typedef Documentation

◆ ruby_vm_t

typedef struct rb_vm_struct ruby_vm_t

The opaque struct to hold VM internals.

Its fields are intentionally hidden from extension libraries because it changes drastically time to time.

Definition at line 1 of file vm.h.

Function Documentation

◆ ruby_free_at_exit_p()

bool ruby_free_at_exit_p ( void )

Returns whether the Ruby VM will free all memory at shutdown.

Returns: true if free-at-exit is enabled, false otherwise.

Definition at line 4500 of file vm.c.

◆ ruby_vm_at_exit()

void ruby_vm_at_exit ( void(*)(ruby_vm_t *) func )

ruby_vm_at_exit registers a function func to be invoked when a VM passed away.

Functions registered this way runs in reverse order of registration, just like END {} block does. The difference is its timing to be triggered. ruby_vm_at_exit functions runs when a VM passed away, while END {} blocks runs just before a VM is passing away.

You cannot register a function to another VM than where you are in. So where to register is intuitive, omitted. OTOH the argument func cannot know which VM it is in because at the time of invocation, the VM has already died and there is no execution context. The VM itself is passed as the first argument to it.

Parameters

[in] func the function to register.

Definition at line 878 of file vm.c.

◆ ruby_vm_destruct()

int ruby_vm_destruct ( ruby_vm_t * vm )

Destructs the passed VM.

You don't have to call this API directly now, because there is no way to create one. There is only one VM at one time. ruby_stop() should just suffice.
