Mark Dickinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: Thanks, Skip. It looks like the top priority is fixing Py_IS_INFINITY, then (still assuming that I'm not barking up entirely the wrong tree). I've opened issue 4575 for the Py_IS_INFINITY fix. I'll look at the changes to AC_CHECK_FUNCS, too. ___ Python tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue4506 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue4506] 3.0 make test failures on Solaris 10
Mark Dickinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: The segfault is a little worrying; I don't understand that at all. Skip, can you come up with a configure patch that would allow isinf to be detected on Solaris? I'll also patch Py_IS_INFINITY to make sure that it forces its argument into memory before testing it; this *should* fix the problem on platforms that don't have isinf. (Note to self: first find out whether Py_IS_INFINITY is ever applied to single precision floats, or whether we can assume the argument is always a double.) ___ Python tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue4506 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Skip Montanaro [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment:

detected on Solaris?
The plot thickens. I know squat about autoconf sorts of things so I
asked on the autoconf mailing list. Eric Drake responded (in part):
The Python ACHECK_FUNCS test should be rewritten (with proper m4
quoting) as:
AC_CHECK_FUNCS([acosh asinh atanh expm1 finite log1p])
AC_CHECK_DECLS([isinf, isnan], [], [], [[#include math.h]])
so I gave that a whirl. Whaddya know? isinf *really* isn't available,
at least not until C99 apparently. The AC_CHECK_DECLS macro generates
a conftest.c which looks like this:
#include math.h
int
main ()
{
#ifndef isinf
(void) isinf;
#endif
;
return 0;
}
which fails to compile/link on our Sol10 boxes. Turns out libm.so
doesn't export an _isinf symbol. The macro I found (in iso/math_c99.h)
doesn't expand in gcc -E output of the above code, so in my non-c99
environment I don't get to use isinf. Looks like your Py_IS_INFINITY
fix will be necessary. Eric also suggested using the gnu isinf and
isnan modules:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?
p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=m4/isinf.m4;h=1b9e45a;hb=67461c3
I'll leave that for you to decide.
In any case, the above changes to AC_CHECK_FUNCS should probably be
made.

[issue4506] 3.0 make test failures on Solaris 10
Mark Dickinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: I'm failry sure I can find a SPARC here to run it on as well. They are rather few and far between though. I don't think that's necessary. Thanks for disabusing me of my 'Solaris implies SPARC' mindset, though! There are two more pieces of information that *would* be useful: 1. What happens if you build with the '-ffloat-store' option to gcc? If my diagnosis is correct I'd expect the cmath tests to pass with this flag. (I'm not 100% sure how to make sure the '-ffloat-store' option gets passed through into the Module builds, though BASECFLAGS='-ffloat-store' ./configure seems to work for me.) 2. It looks as though the configure script isn't finding 'isinf' on Solaris 10. Any ideas why? Is there some replacement for isinf that's spelt differently? I suspect that if we were using the system lib's test for infinity instead of the Py_IS_INFINITY workaround then this problem wouldn't have come up.

[issue4506] 3.0 make test failures on Solaris 10
Mark Dickinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: Thanks for the assembly code---you're running Solaris on x86! Why didn't you say so before? :) I think I have an idea what's going on: it's the old extended-precision versus double-precision problem. The calculation of c_exp is done in extended precision in the 80-bit registers of the x87 FPU. The imaginary part of the result of c_exp(710+1.5j) is representable in extended precision, but is outside the range of double precision. So at the point of the Py_IS_INFINITY call, the comparison is done in the FPU and the value being tested isn't infinity. But sometime after that this value is forced out of the 80-bit extended precision FPU register and into memory, where it becomes a 64-bit IEEE 754 double precision infinity. I guess the printf calls force the value from register to memory earlier, so that by the time of the Py_IS_INFINITY call it's already a 64-bit double, and hence already an infinity. Now to prove my theory by turning this into a fix, somehow. It seems as though this problem isn't really specific to Solaris; I guess it's just luck that it hasn't shown up on other x86 platforms. It should certainly be fixed. For the test_math failure, there have been problems with log on other platforms, too, mostly due to strange libm behaviour. The obvious solution is to adapt the Python implementation to deal with special values itself, rather than leaving them to the platform math library. Should be a fairly straightforward change. ___ Python tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue4506 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Mark Dickinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: I think you brought up the math and cmath errors before, and I never managed to get to the bottom of the problem. I'll have another go. I don't think the (c)math test failures should be regarded as terribly serious, though; the tests are quite ridiculously strict. Could you please tell me what cmath.exp(complex(710.0, 1.5)) actually returns, if it doesn't raise OverflowError?

Mark Dickinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: (1.5802653829857376e+307+inf*j) Those values look right; except that there's some code near the end of the cexp function that's supposed to set errno to ERANGE if either the real or imaginary component of the result is infinity (and then math_1 knows to raise OverflowError as a result). It looks like that's not happening for some reason. If you have time, could you try the attached patch and report what gets printed when cmath.exp(710+1.5j) is called?
