Issue #17849 has been updated by ioquatix (Samuel Williams). The fiber scheduler redefines `Timeout` to only well defined wait points. We could also do the same for other options likes `Thread#raise` etc. ---------------------------------------- Feature #17849: Fix Timeout.timeout so that it can be used in threaded Web servers https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17849#change-94068 * Author: duerst (Martin D端rst) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) ---------------------------------------- Making this a separate issue from #17837 Eregon (Benoit Daloze) wrote in https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17837#note-10 (which is about timeouts for regular expressions): > I think fixing Timeout.timeout might be possible. > The main/major issue is it can trigger within `ensure`, right?
