python 3.3 module test failures on FreeBSD 9 amd64
by A G Dec. 9, 2012

Dec. 9, 2012

Hello All, I am successfully compiling python 3.3 on FreeBSD 9.0 amd64 architecture. When I run the tests, I get these two test failures ( I trimmed out all the output from test cases that returned ok): test_saltedcrypt (test.test_crypt.CryptTestCase) ... FAIL ====================================================================== FAIL: test_saltedcrypt (test.test_crypt.CryptTestCase) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/home/adam/Python-3.3.0/Lib/test/test_crypt.py", line 23, in test_saltedcrypt self.assertEqual(len(pw), method.total_size) AssertionError: 60 != 13 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 4 tests in 0.063s ====================================================================== FAIL: test_setegid (test.test_os.PosixUidGidTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/home/adam/Python-3.3.0/Lib/test/test_os.py", line 1211, in test_setegid self.assertRaises(os.error, os.setegid, 0) AssertionError: OSError not raised by setegid ====================================================================== FAIL: test_setgid (test.test_os.PosixUidGidTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/home/adam/Python-3.3.0/Lib/test/test_os.py", line 1199, in test_setgid self.assertRaises(os.error, os.setgid, 0) AssertionError: OSError not raised by setgid ====================================================================== FAIL: test_setregid (test.test_os.PosixUidGidTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/home/adam/Python-3.3.0/Lib/test/test_os.py", line 1231, in test_setregid self.assertRaises(os.error, os.setregid, 0, 0) AssertionError: OSError not raised by setregid ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 124 tests in 2.035s FAILED (failures=3, skipped=23) Warning -- threading._dangling was modified by test_os test test_os failed 2 tests failed: test_crypt test_os My question is, are these known? Is it safe for me to use this compiled version of python, or will I run into problems if I use those two modules or any code that depends on those? Ideally I'd like to resolve these and submit a port for python3.3 since the most recent FreeBSD port is stuck on 3.2. Thanks! Adam

It's a micro-optimization. PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault() calls PyUnicode_EncodeLocale(unicode, "surrogateescape"), and PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize() calls PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize(s, size, "surrogateescape"). I chose to compare the address because I expect that GCC generates the same address for "surrogateescape" in PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault() and in locale_error_handler(), comparing pointers is faster than comparing the string content. I remove this micro-optimization. The code path is only used during Python startup, and I don't expect any real speedup. > I'm also getting additional warnings in PyUnicode_Format(). > > Objects/unicodeobject.c: In function 'PyUnicode_Format': > Objects/unicodeobject.c:13782:8: warning: 'arg.sign' may be used > uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] > Objects/unicodeobject.c:13893:33: note: 'arg.sign' was declared here > Objects/unicodeobject.c:13779:12: warning: 'str' may be used > uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] > Objects/unicodeobject.c:13894:15: note: 'str' was declared here These members *are* initialized, but it's even hard to me (author of this code) to check them. I rewrote how these members are initialized to make the warnings quiet but also to simplify the code. Thanks for the review! Victor PS: I hope that I really fixed the FreeBSD/Solaris issue :-p

Describing just the new behaviour or the original problem and the fix is much easier to follow. For example: - Issue #16592: stringlib_bytes_join now correctly raises MemoryError on allocation failure. - Issue #16592: stringlib_bytes_join was triggering SystemError on allocation failure. It now correctly raises MemoryError. Issue titles for actual bugs generally don't make good NEWS entries, as they're typically a summary of the problem rather than the solution (RFE's are different, as there the issue title is often a good summary of the proposed change) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan(a)gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia
