New issue 1963: Assertion failure in OptimizingVisitor.visit_Name https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issue/1963/assertion-failure-in
Dave Watola: Using version 2.4 of pypy, the very simple test case attached crashes with ``` #! RPython traceback: File "pypy_interpreter_pycompiler.c", line 1567, in PythonAstCompiler__compile_ast File "pypy_interpreter_astcompiler_ast_1.c", line 20718, in Module_mutate_over File "pypy_interpreter_astcompiler_ast_2.c", line 10177, in ASTVisitor__mutate_sequence File "pypy_interpreter_astcompiler_ast_1.c", line 45287, in Assign_mutate_over File "pypy_interpreter_astcompiler_ast_2.c", line 10177, in ASTVisitor__mutate_sequence File "pypy_interpreter_astcompiler_ast_1.c", line 53781, in List_mutate_over File "pypy_interpreter_astcompiler_ast_2.c", line 10177, in ASTVisitor__mutate_sequence File "pypy_interpreter_astcompiler_optimize.c", line 252, in OptimizingVisitor_visit_Name Fatal RPython error: AssertionError Abort (core dumped) ``` This test case uses macropy, which adjusts AST representation using an import hook. The crash occurs during compilation -- there is no runtime code in this case. Aside from this issue, macropy seems to work correctly with pypy. All seems well with the proposed fix below. It is not clear what is triggering this optimization, because the original and final ASTs involved do not use "None", I was able to eliminate the problem by editing OptimizingVisitor.visit_Name in pypy/interpreter/astcompiler/optimize.py and changing the guard condition on the "if" statement to include the assertion condition would provide a correct solution. i.e. ``` #!python if name.id=="None" and name.ctx ==ast.Load ``` (and then eliminate the assertion). This appears to be a safe and correct change, but I have no familiarity with the pypy code base and thought that someone else should evaluate the situation. _______________________________________________ pypy-issue mailing list pypy-issue@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-issue
