Hi MXNet folks, This is Junyu and I am writing this email hoping to get more clarifications about the Segmentation Fault issue described in https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/19360. I understand that the issue was fixed by PR #19378 <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/19378> but looks like it has been reverted recently via PR #20998 <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/20998>, causing the Seg Fault issue to surface again in 1.9 branches. We are trying to upgrade MXNet from 1.8.0 to 1.9.1 but we are blocked because GPU tests are failing due to the resurrection of the issue. I verified in my forked repo that, after reverting PR #20998 the GPU tests are green again with 1.9.1.
I also notice that there's a Feature Request #19379 <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/19379> to come up with a better solution but it seems like it's still work in progress. We would like to know if it is possible to revert PR#20998 <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/20998> to unblock us while you are working on an alternative solution for the issue? Or will the alternative solution be presented any time soon? We would really appreciate it if you could clarify more on how the issue will be handled as the next step. -- Thanks, Junyu C
