[issue27480] Cannot link _crypt and _nis modules on a host with glibc-2.12
Martin Mokrejs added the comment: Interesting, using the system-wide RedHat stuff I can compile vanilla Python-3.4.5. See attached nohup.out. I tried to stick to the same configure arguments as Gentoo's package manager used. I also tried to compile the vanilla tarball under Gentoo::Prefix and wow, it also went through (as fat as _crypt is concerned).

[issue27480] Cannot link _crypt and _nis modules on a host with glibc-2.12
Martin Mokrejs added the comment: Ah, thank you for a quick answer. The problem is not with a Gentoo, the problem is with python which needs too new libc or libnss or libcrypt. I am re-opening, why cannot I compile newer python version on glibc-2.12 host?

[issue18843] Py_FatalError (msg=0x7f0e3b373232 bad leading pad byte) at Python-2.7.5/Python/pythonrun.c:1689
Martin Mokrejs added the comment: Hi, I think I should report back what I found on the hardware side. While memory testing tools like memtest86+ and other did not find any error, the built in Dell ePSA test suite likely does compute a checksum of tested memory regions. It reported some addresses/regions as failed, sadly nobody seems to know details of the failing tests. On repeated testing different memory regions were reported, so I never understood whether that is a bad CPU cache or something randomizing the issue observed. At least, only one of the two SO-DIMMs caused the problems so lets conclude it was partly baked up and failing randomly. At that time it seemed the cause was either bad CPU producing just too much heat or the fan. Fan was replaced, max temps went down from 92 oC to 82 oC. Two months later I faced more and more often that an external HDMI-connected display did not receive signal, so even the CPU got replaced. I got another drop in max temperatures, now max are about 70 oC. Cool! Back to python, the random crashes of my apps stopped after the memory module being replaced, actually who pair was replaced. I started to dream about linux kernel making mirroring inside memory for failure resiliency but there is nothing like that available. In summary, this lesson was hard and showed that there are no good tools to test hardware. Checksums should be used always and bits tested for fading over the time. The mirroring trick could have also uncovered a failing memory or CPU. Seems there is still way to go to a perfect computer. Thanks to everybody for their efforts on this issue. Whether python takes something from this lesson is up to you. -- status: pending - open ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue18843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

The above what I had originally. Yesterday I tried even:
# cat /etc/portage/env/pydebug.conf
EXTRA_ECONF=--with-pydebug --without-pymalloc --with-valgrind
#
but I don't know what the valgrind option really does and, whether that means:
a) python will run itself under valgrind, don't both doing it yourself
b) you don't have to bother with uncommenting the lines in valgrind.supp
c) make install will install the valgrind.supp but you have to edit it on
your own
d) you may use valgrind but don't use other tool replacing malloc(), like
electric fence, DUMA, etc.
Or some combination of them? :( The Readme.valgrind does not answer this at all.
I let DUMA inspect emerge boost run overnight but my computer stopped
responding (16GB RAM).
I tried only gcc-4.7.3 and python-2.7.5-r2.
CFLAGS=-ggdb -pipe -msse -msse2 -msse3 -mssse3 -msse4.1 -msse4.2 -msse4 -mavx
-maes -mpclmul -mpopcnt -march=corei7-avx
CXXFLAGS=${CFLAGS}
Per comment from Charles-François, so you mean that this single-bit change
won't be caught by valgrind, right? Why does not memtest86+ detect that? Could
python when compiled with the --with-pydebug print also physical, hardware
address of the wrong value? That would be really helpful here! Thanks.

[issue18859] README.valgrind should mention --with-valgrind
Martin Mokrejs added the comment: Moreover, it should explain what that really does. One could think of several answers or even their combinations what this configure flag will really do: a) python will run itself under valgrind, don't bother ever doing it yourself b) you don't have to bother with uncommenting the lines in valgrind.supp c) make install will install the valgrind.supp but you have to edit it on your own d) you may use valgrind but don't use other tool replacing malloc(), like electric fence, DUMA, etc. You should be quite verbose how (in)compatible is this with other tools. Or some combination of them? valgrind docs say it won't work if a binary lacks debug symbols (wasn't compiled with -g). Initially I got mislead I though I have to convert my blah.py to blah.c using cython, compile that with gcc -ggdb blah.c and then I may run valgrind on the binary. In the end, I don't understand why everybody has to remove the comment symbols from the valgrind-python.supp file at all. Why isn't that by default enabled? I also suggest you mention right in the file other handy information because people quite likely get on this path while chasing memory corruption issues, maybe broken hardware: 1. Mention that python uses 256kB chunks by default. 2. Mention there exists --without-pymalloc as Tim explained me in http://bugs.python.org/issue18843#msg196492 3. Explain how to interpret those stacktraces one could get: http://bugs.python.org/issue18843#msg196481 Thank you! -- nosy: +mmokrejs ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue18859 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Hmm, but I did not add -DPy_LIMITED_API=1. Python 2.7.5 can be compiled using
same configuration. Going back to the build.log file I see:
configure --prefix=/usr --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
--mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share
--sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --libdir=/usr/lib64 --with-fpectl

--with-libc= --enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions --with-system-expat
--with-system-ffi --with-pydebug --without-pymalloc --with-valgrind
I specified only --with-pydebug --without-pymalloc --with-valgrind. So where
does the limited API come from? Bug in configure.ac?

[issue18843] Py_FatalError (msg=0x7f0e3b373232 bad leading pad byte) at Python-2.7.5/Python/pythonrun.c:1689
Martin Mokrejs added the comment: I think it would be of tremendous help if python reported the physical memory address though do not know how much work is that for you. I already said that, I wonder why memtest86+ could not find an error, I even tried other tools for that. Could --with-pydebug immediately after writing those pad bytes try to read them back, just to make sure they are readable? Theoretically one could catch the wrong bit of memory immediately. It is random, I think CPU must be fully loaded for a long while, plus something unknown has to kick in. Maybe that has to heat up the memory modules to cause the failure. My motherboard is already 3rd but doubt it is at fault, except that the SandyBridge chip is bad by design. Was replaced few days ago with CPU cooler (was the main reason for technician to come). I take that replacing motherboard was a nice offer from Dell. I would instead think that maybe CPU is heating too much. BIOS is weird. ACPI and PCIe ASPM are exploiting Linux kernel hotplug support and PCI developers are puzzled. I experience that SandyBridge resets e.g. its USB2.0 controller if there was a hotplug even on some of its other root ports (express card was inserted/ejected). But in overall I don't think it is a bad deal and it works. These exceptional glitches are I think a software error or BIOS error. It just wouldn't be running all the days and nights. No, it is not overheated, at least not now with the replaced cooler. I can put in other memory module (with which I bought the laptop from Dell). Other than that, hmm ... I could take out the hard drive and attach it to some other computer, boot from Live-DVD ... the problem is I need a lot of RAM for some of my stuff and it would have to be relatively same CPU type (I compiled binaries with avx). Yes, the emerge crash definitely was another case, I could hope to get that happen on even 1GB RAM machine, sure. I just don't have a testcase for that to trigger. I tried to stitch something but no, I probably coded something not going in the right direction. If you would have the time to stitch down some test for me to execute with the garbage collector calls, it would be probably the best. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue18843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Martin Mokrejs added the comment: Yes, I have rebuilt all python modules but even gdb exited on startup due to python ABI change. I am using Gentoo Linux (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482348) and unless python-updater forgot to include some package in the listing of those needed to be recompiled, I am sane. And becuase gdb could not even start up I *hope* those no recompiled yet would NOT work AT ALL. Thanks for clarification, I thought that I might reach some internal number (the serial number as you say) in python and run out of some internal counters on objects. Actually, I hit these issues because I wondered why some of my application tests fail. Although all tests crunch a really lot of data they merely do the same in the end: draw charts using matplotlib which uses numpy. I have huge lists which I recently converted to generators (if possible) and now I even use imap(), izip(), ifilter() from itertools. One of the crashed tests has 153 levels in gdb stacktrace and few lines from the very top/outer already had the izip() objects. But the tests which crashed are not so huge like others, maybe take just 1/10 of the size of others, so I wonder why these failed. I think some crashes are related to me deleting explictly a huge list in my code even before leaving a function. Or maybe returning such lists between child/parent functions? Could valgring or something else help to find who is overwriting data of others? But I don't have experience with using it. I think this _figure.clear() crash could be manifestation of python deleting a wrong object/pointer. Some ugly for loops over lists took ... don't know how much but in total even 26GB of RAM was reserved by the process (most of it also as residual memory requirement). With itertools() I got down 10x. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue18843 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue17207] string format precision misbehaving
New submission from Martin Mokrejs:
Hi,
I don't know if this is related to issue8040 or not. I find the 2.7 string
formatting behavior inconsistent. I found out sometimes I have to divide my
number by 100 so that the percentage values get printed correctly. Somehow,
when a percent sign appears in the formatting definition python magically
multiplies the number by 100. But sometimes not. This is not specified in
http://docs.python.org/2/library/stdtypes.html#string-formatting so I really do
not like this whole thing, sorry to say that.
Some examples, which should have been posted in the Library reference doc above.

1) Would somebody please document the behavior?
2) Would somebody explain how can I print 12.67% (I want precision of 2 places
after the decimal dot).
3) Why sometimes using float() fixes the behavior (likely converting int() to
float()?
4) But why does the scientific exponential notation sometimes come out?
5) Finally, it would be nice if the python 2.7 docs contained how to format
floats to 2 places after the dot using the old syntax:
float=%f % (12.77)
I would like to get just 12.77 out. I can use round() but that is not what I
am asking for. I want to change just the formatting of the output:
round(12.77, 2)
12.77
Thank you

[issue15416] 3 * [] gives a list of 3 cross-referenced lists, a[1]='blah' writes in to ALL three!
Martin Mokrejs added the comment: For the sake of internet archives, the following could be included in the FAQ you referred to: http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/BuildingArrays import numpy as np a=np.array(5*[False],bool) a array([False, False, False, False, False], dtype=bool) a[4]=1 a array([False, False, False, False, True], dtype=bool) But thanks for the link, it helped me at that time. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15416 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue15416] 3 * [] gives a list of 3 cross-referenced lists, a[1]='blash
New submission from Martin Mokrejs mmokr...@users.sourceforge.net:
Hi,
I thought that I can easily create a list of, say 3, nested lists:
$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, May 17 2012, 21:10:41)
[GCC 4.5.3] on linux2
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
3 * [[]]
[[], [], []]
a=3 * [[]]
a[0]
[]
a[1].append('sdds')
a
[['sdds'], ['sdds'], ['sdds']]
a[0].append('xxx')
a
[['sdds', 'xxx'], ['sdds', 'xxx'], ['sdds', 'xxx']]
The below works as expected.
a=[[], [], []]
a
[[], [], []]
a[0]
[]
a[1]
[]
a[1].append('sdds')
a[0].append('xxx')
a
[['xxx'], ['sdds'], []]
Of course, I want to do like:
a = len(b) * [] # to get a list of individual hashes
c = len(b) * [0] # to get a list of indvidual counters

[issue3235] Improve subprocess module usage
New submission from Martin Mokrejs [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Although I do appreciate that you try to improve python it is not clear to me from http://docs.python.org/lib/module-subprocess.html: 1. Why the old functions have been deprecated 2. I can pipe together two processes. But how can I use pipe to feed the first process of the two? The example at http://docs.python.org/lib/node535.html is not sufficient. Show how to bind together cat(1) and tr(1). Cat should read from STDIN and pass the same to STDOUT, being read by tr(1). 3. Nowhere is explained what this magic really does: output = p2.communicate()[0] I figured out the result is e.g. a string of '\n' separated lines. What is not clear whether at this very moment the processes get started and whether one can still write on input to them. It seems not, the p1.stdin has to be already populated with data.
