Good day,
Thanks to handy hints from Martin Morgan, I ran R under gdb and checked for any
numeric overflow. We pinpointed the cause:
(gdb) info locals
i = 0
j = 10738
m = 200000
n = 50000
ans = 0x55555b332790
aa = 0x55555b3327c0
There is a line of C code in dgeMatrix.c for (i = 0; i < m; i++) aa[i] += xx[i
+ j * m];
i + j * m are all int, and overflow
(lldb) print 0 + 10738 * 200000
(int) $5 = -2147367296
So, either the code should check that this doesn't occur, or be adjusted to
allow for large indexes.
If anyone is interested, this is in the context of single-cell ATAC-seq data,
which typically has about 200000 genomic regions (rows) and perhaps 100000
biological cells (columns).
