Hi David, >From your mail, "904" seems to be a typeid. It cannot be a variable computed as "n + 100 * i + ...", because it appears directly in assembler as "li r3, 904". It seems the problem is more subtle than that, reusing bogus memory and falling over a "904" that is a typeid when reading "16(r3)", which should not be possible.
This problem might be caused by randomness hard to debug, or maybe precisely by what the test is really about (see the comment at the start): the write barrier doesn't work correctly. Such a write barrier should turn out as a COND_CALL_GC_WB resop. Another path of investigation would be to check that SETINTERIORFIELD_GC behaves correctly in all cases. Right now I see that test_runner.py only checks with all arguments being boxes, and not with combinations of boxes and consts. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
