[ruby-core:102087] [Ruby master Bug#17540] A segfault due to Clang/LLVM optimization on 32-bit ARM Linux

Issue #17540 has been updated by shyouhei (Shyouhei Urabe).


Mmm… That sounds like an LLVM issue.  At least in the latest C++, `volatile` is deprecated.  I don’t think that fix works for extension libraries written in that language.

----------------------------------------
When built with `optflags=-O3` (which is the default), `ruby -e "pp Thread.main"` causes a segfault, which seems to be worked around by the following change:
```
--- a/include/ruby/internal/fl_type.h
+++ b/include/ruby/internal/fl_type.h

 RBIMPL_ATTR_PURE_UNLESS_DEBUG()

+RB_FL_TEST_RAW(volatile VALUE obj, VALUE flags)
 {
     RBIMPL_ASSERT_OR_ASSUME(RB_FL_ABLE(obj));
     return RBASIC(obj)->flags & flags;
```

There might be a bug in the optimizer of Clang/LLVM (version 11.0.1).
