The try-open_timeout-then-fallback-to-timeout introduced in 1903ced works well, but when it errors due to any reason in Rubies which do not support `open_timeout`, it spits the rescued ArgumentError that is unrelated to user code and not actionable. Net::HTTP.start('foo.bar', 80) /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1691:in 'TCPSocket#initialize': Failed to open TCP connection to foo.bar:80 (getaddrinfo(3): nodename nor servname provided, or not known) (Socket::ResolutionError) from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1691:in 'IO.open' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1691:in 'block in Net::HTTP#connect' from /.../timeout-0.4.4/lib/timeout.rb:188:in 'block in Timeout.timeout' from /.../timeout-0.4.4/lib/timeout.rb:195:in 'Timeout.timeout' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1690:in 'Net::HTTP#connect' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1655:in 'Net::HTTP#do_start' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1635:in 'Net::HTTP#start' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1064:in 'Net::HTTP.start' (snip) /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1682:in 'TCPSocket#initialize': unknown keyword: :open_timeout (ArgumentError) sock = TCPSocket.open(conn_addr, conn_port, @local_host, @local_port, open_timeout: @open_timeout) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1682:in 'IO.open' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1682:in 'Net::HTTP#connect' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1655:in 'Net::HTTP#do_start' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1635:in 'Net::HTTP#start' from /.../net-http-0.8.0/lib/net/http.rb:1064:in 'Net::HTTP.start' (snip) ... 8 levels... This patch suppresses the ArgumentError by moving the retry out of the rescue clause.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Nice, that's even simpler, no recursive call just moving the Timeout.timeout outside the rescue and using an early return
