[issue7406] int arithmetic relies on C signed overflow behaviour
New submission from Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com:
Much of the code in Objects/intobject.c assumes that an arithmetic
operation on signed longs will wrap modulo 2**(bits_in_long) on
overflow. However, signed overflow causes undefined behaviour according
to the C standards (e.g., C99 6.5, para. 5), and gcc is known to assume
that signed overflow never occurs in correct code, and to make use of
this assumption when optimizing.
An obvious example is found in int_add, which looks like this:
static PyObject *
int_add(PyIntObject *v, PyIntObject *w)
{
register long a, b, x;
CONVERT_TO_LONG(v, a);
CONVERT_TO_LONG(w, b);
x = a + b;
if ((x^a) = 0 || (x^b) = 0)
return PyInt_FromLong(x);
return PyLong_Type.tp_as_number-nb_add((PyObject *)v, (PyObject
*)w);
}
Here Python is relying on the line 'x = a + b' wrapping on overflow.
While this code doesn't seem to have caused any problems to date, it's
not at all inconceivable that some future version of GCC is clever
enough to figure out that (with its assumption that correct code never
includes signed overflow) the if condition is always false, so can be
optimized away. At that point, a Python interpreter built with this
version of GCC would produce incorrect results for int addition.
More generally, Python's source makes a number of assumptions about
integer arithmetic that aren't guaranteed by the C standards. Most of
these assumptions are likely to be harmless on modern machines, but the
assumptions should probably at least be documented somewhere, and
ideally also checked somewhere in the configuration, so that attempts to
port Python to machines that don't obey these assumptions complain
loudly. Namely, the source assumes at least that:
- C signed ints are represented in two's complement, not ones'
complement or sign-and-magnitude.
- the bit pattern 1000000 is not a trap representation (so
e.g., INT_MIN = -INT_MAX-1, not -INT_MAX).
- conversion from an unsigned integer type to the corresponding signed
type wraps modulo 2**(appropriate_number_of_bits).
(Relevant standard sections: C99 6.2.6.2, C99 6.3.1.3p3.)

[issue3382] Make '%F' and float.__format__('F') convert results to upper case.
Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: Thanks for looking at this, Mark. Your patch looks okay to me, but Objects/stringlib/formatter.h still has some 'F' - 'f' logic in it, although it turns out that it's wrong: #if PY_VERSION_HEX 0x0301000 /* 'F' is the same as 'f', per the PEP */ /* This is no longer the case in 3.x */ if (type == 'F') type = 'f'; #endif Note that it's missing a zero on the end, so this code is never (and I guess never was) executed. I'll remove it and add a test. It also looks like complex is still mapping 'F' to 'f'. I'll fix that, too, and add a test for it.

[issue7408] test_distutils fails on Mac OS X 10.5
David Bolen db3l@gmail.com added the comment: I don't think its OSX specific. My FreeBSD slaves (both 6.4 and 7.2) have been getting the same error recently (sounds like probably around the same time frame). The error always seems to be that member.gid (0) is not matching os.getgid (1001). The os.getgid call is correct in terms of that being the group under which the build slave is running. In digging a little deeper I think the the generated distribution is behaving correctly, just not how the test is expecting. On my FreeBSD systems (and my personal OSX 10.4 system for that matter), if I make a directory in /tmp it gets my UID, but a GID of 0 (wheel). Whether that's because my id is also in the wheel group or because of the sticky bit on /tmp I'm not totally sure. Maybe it needs both (/tmp is sticky on my Ubuntu system but my id is not in the root group, and this doesn't happen). So the files being created for the second half of this test are placed in a temporary folder with a group of wheel(0), and the files appear to get the same ownership. This doesn't happen elsewhere, but appears to be special behavior beneath tmp. Perhaps if the test did a comparison to the UID/GID of tmp_dir rather than os.getuid()/os.getgid() it would better reflect that the tarfile was being built with the same ownership as found in the filesystem. Whether that's the correct ownership is a separate question, but as long as distutils is accurately reflecting that it shouldn't be a failure on a distutils test. -- David -- nosy: +db3l ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue7408 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

What's important in distutils, is to make sure it was able to create tarballs with various uid/gid using the new tarfile feature. Right, and that part of the test (explicitly making uid/gid=0/0) is passing. It's just the default case that is failing, and only because the test's assumption doesn't match what is actually happening in the filesystem in terms of default group ownership. From Martin: David, could it be that the directories where a change of group occurs also have the s-bit set? The sticky bit should have no such effect.

[issue7408] test_distutils fails on Mac OS X 10.5
Ned Deily n...@acm.org added the comment: This does seem to be a long standing Unix*-flavor behavior difference. The open(2) man page on OS X (and presumably FreeBSD) reads: When a new file is created, it is given the group of the directory which contains it. The Linux open(2) page has: O_CREAT If the file does not exist it will be created. The owner (user ID) of the file is set to the effective user ID of the process. The group own‐ ership (group ID) is set either to the effective group ID of the process or to the group ID of the parent directory (depending on file system type and mount options, and the mode of the parent directory, see the mount options bsdgroups and sysvgroups described in mount(8)). The Open Group Base Specifications (Issue 6, 2004) for open(1) has this rationale: The POSIX.1-1990 standard required that the group ID of a newly created file be set to the group ID of its parent directory or to the effective group ID of the creating process. FIPS 151-2 required that implementations provide a way to have the group ID be set to the group ID of the containing directory, but did not prohibit implementations also supporting a way to set the group ID to the effective group ID of the creating process. Conforming applications should not assume which group ID will be used. If it matters, an application can use chown() to set the group ID after the file is created, or determine under what conditions the implementation will set the desired group ID. So the portable solution is to change the test to not assume which group ID is used. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue7408 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
