New submission from Damian:
Hi. While porting a library of mine (https://stem.torproject.org/) to python 3
I've been reliably encountering a python segmentation fault while running its
integration tests. After many hours of head scratching I've narrowed the repro
to the following script...
========================================
import queue
import socket
class Demo(object):
def __init__(self, control_socket_file):
demo_queue = queue.Queue()
try:
raise ValueError()
except ValueError as exc:
demo_queue.put(exc)
for i in range(20):
control_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
control_socket.connect(("www.google.com", 80))
control_socket_file = control_socket.makefile(mode = "rw", newline = "")
Demo(control_socket_file)
========================================
atagar@morrigan:~$ python3 --version
Python 3.2
atagar@morrigan:~$ python3 demo.py
Segmentation fault
========================================
Yes, I realise that the script is stupidly convoluted but it was the minimal
amount of code I could get to in order to reproduce the problem. Some things to
note...
* You must have an object that gets a reference to an open socket based file.
* You need to have a try/catch block and enqueue that exception. If you get rid
of the try/catch or enqueue something else then no segfault for you.
* The segfault isn't entirely reliable (seems so happen half the time or so),
hence the loop.
While this repro script is pointless, it's the last issue preventing me from
moving to python 3. At this point I'm out of idea so help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks! -Damian

PS. If the advice is 'upgrade python, 3.2 had some segfault bugs' then a
pointer to those bugs would be appreciated. I've sunk quite a few hours into
this issue so it would be nice to finally figure out what's up.
