defined( \@foo = $obj->method) corrupts $obj when it is a loop variable in loop on Hash::Ordered objects #22710

Open djerius opened 1 month ago

djerius commented 1 month ago

Description

This is an odd one. I create an ordered hash whose values are objects via Hash::Ordered, then loop over the values, and incorrectly call

defined(\@tags = $value->method)

which, under 5.40 and not 5.38.3, corrupts $value. If I remove the call to defined, $value is not corrupted.

Steps to Reproduce

use v5.38;
use experimental 'declared_refs';

use Hash::Ordered;

package foo {
    sub new { my $class = shift; bless {}, $class }
    sub method { [] };
}

eval {
    my $hash = Hash::Ordered->new( map { $_ => foo->new } 0..1 );
    for my $value ( $hash->values ) {
        next if defined( my \@foo = $value->method );
    }
};

say "call defined: $@";

eval {
    my $hash = Hash::Ordered->new( map { $_ => foo->new } 0..1 );
    for my $value ( $hash->values ) {
        my \@foo = $value->method;
    }
};

say "don't call defined: $@";

This results in:

# Perl v5.38.2
$ perl bug.pl
call defined: 
don't call defined: 

# Perl v5.40
$ perl bug.pl
call defined: Can't locate object method "method" via package "1" (perhaps you forgot to load "1"?) at bug.pl line 15.

don't call defined:

This is perhaps something related to tied objects (which Hash::Ordered is based on)? I've experimented with looping over a simple array of objects, and the corruption does not occur.

Bisecting with the following invocation on unthreaded Linux builds ...

perl Porting/bisect.pl \
--start=v5.38.0 \
--end=v5.40.0 \
--with-module Hash::Ordered \
-- ./perl -Ilib $P5P_DIR/gh-22710-hash-ordered.pl

... where I modified @djerius's program to read:

$ cat gh-22710-hash-ordered.pl 
use v5.38;
use experimental 'declared_refs';
use Hash::Ordered;

package foo {
    sub new { my $class = shift; bless {}, $class }
    sub method { [] };
}

eval {
    my $hash = Hash::Ordered->new( map { $_ => foo->new } 0..1 );
    for my $value ( $hash->values ) {
        next if defined( my \@foo = $value->method );
    }
};

if ($@) {
    print "XXX: $@\n";
    exit 1;
}
else {
    exit 0;
}

... and that pointed to a change of behavior at 604c0355d2 last December

    make RC-stack-aware: unwrap pp_refassign()

    Remove the temporary wrapper from pp_refassign()

    Also move a couple of variable declarations into the smallest scope
    possible: mg and stash are used only by (and implicitly by)
    SvCANEXISTDELETE().

I say "change of behavior" because I don't know enough about declared_refs or Hash::Ordered to say what good behavior should be.

@iabyn, can you take a look? Thanks.
