Nevermind. I did misinterpret your code. I'm ok either.

Feature #11607: [PATCH] fiddle: release GVL for ffi_call
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11607#change-54575

* Author: Eric Wong
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: Aaron Patterson
----------------------------------------
Some external functions I wish to call may take a long time
and unnecessarily block other threads.  This may lead to performance
regressions for fast functions as releasing/acquiring the GVL is not
cheap, but can improve performance for long-running functions
in multi-threaded applications.

This also means we must reacquire the GVL when calling Ruby-defined
callbacks for Fiddle::Closure, meaning we must detect whether the
current thread has the GVL by exporting ruby_thread_has_gvl_p
in internal.h
