Subject: [ruby-core:111724] [Ruby master Bug#18518] NoMemoryError + [FATAL] failed to allocate memory for twice 1 << large

Issue #18518 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze).


Spec fixed in https://github.com/ruby/ruby/compare/651a098ea1526b363e85fd8d3f30e9783f6c5de1...28cfc0c116b6c6e40bf3b391f026a51b3b208047, so only RangeError for when above the limit.

Bug #18518: NoMemoryError + [FATAL] failed to allocate memory for twice 1 << large
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18518#change-101124

* Author: Eregon (Benoit Daloze)
* Status: Rejected
* Priority: Normal
* ruby -v: ruby 3.0.2p107 (2021-07-07 revision 0db68f0233) [x86_64-linux]
* Backport: 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
Repro:
```ruby
exp = 2**40 # also fails with bignum e.g. 2**64

def exc
  begin
    yield
  rescue NoMemoryError => e
    p :NoMemoryError
  end
end

p exp
exc { (1 << exp) }
exc { (-1 << exp) }
exc { (bignum_value << exp) }
exc { (-bignum_value << exp) }
```

Output:
```
$ ruby -v mri_oom.rb
ruby 3.0.2p107 (2021-07-07 revision 0db68f0233) [x86_64-linux]
mri_oom.rb:7: warning: assigned but unused variable - e
1099511627776
:NoMemoryError
[FATAL] failed to allocate memory
```

3.1.0 seems fine:
```
$ ruby -v mri_oom.rb
ruby 3.1.0p0 (2021-12-25 revision fb4df44d16) [x86_64-linux]
mri_oom.rb:7: warning: assigned but unused variable - e
1099511627776
:NoMemoryError
:NoMemoryError
:NoMemoryError
:NoMemoryError
```
