With the bug, memoryview doesn't round properly float: rounds to zero rather than rounding to nearest. It's not a critical crash or critical security vulnerability :-) Anyway, I wrote a fix: PR 11593. My fix is to workaround the GCC compiler bug using volatile but only on ppc64. My change only impacts the 'f' type on ppc64 when compiled by GCC. Other architectures, compilers and types are unaffected and so have no impact on performances. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35752> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
