Hi,
I've got Python embedded successfully in a program up until now as I'm
now running into weird GC related segfaults. I'm currently trying to
debug this but my understanding of CPython limits me here.
I'm creating a Tuple in C but it crashes on creating it after a while.
It doesn't make sense which makes me wonder something else must be
happening? Could be it just crashes here because the GC is cleaning up
stuff completely unrelated to the allocation of the new tuple? How can I
troubleshoot this?
I've got CPython compiled with --with-valgrind --without-pymalloc
--with-pydebug
In C I'm creating a tuple with the following method:
static PyObject *
s_py_zosc_tuple(pythonactor_t *self, zosc_t *oscmsg)
{
assert(self);
assert(oscmsg);
char *format = zosc_format(oscmsg);
PyObject *rettuple = PyTuple_New((Py_ssize_t) strlen(format) );
It segfaults here (frame 16) after 320 times (consistently)

Any pointer really appreciated.
You're creating a tuple that'll have the same number of members as the
length of a string? That looks strange to me.
How are you setting the tuple's members?
It's from a serialisation format called OSC. The string describes the
type of bytes, every character is a type.
I'm creating the tuple as follows:
PyObject *rettuple = PyTuple_New((Py_ssize_t) strlen(format) );
Then I iterate the OSC message using the format string, (just showing
handling an int (i))
char type = '0';
Py_ssize_t pos = 0;
const void *data = zosc_first(oscmsg, &type);
while(data)
{
switch (type)
{
case('i'):
{
int32_t val = 9;
int rc = zosc_pop_int32(oscmsg, &val);
assert(rc == 0);
PyObject *o = PyLong_FromLong((long)val);
assert( o );
rc = PyTuple_SetItem(rettuple, pos, o);
assert(rc == 0);
break;
}
Full code is here:
https://github.com/hku-ect/gazebosc/blob/822452dfa27201db274d37ce09e835d98fe500b2/Actors/pythonactor.c#L360
Looking at that code, you have:
PyObject *o = Py_BuildValue("s#", str, 1);
what I'd check is the type of the 1 that you're passing. Wouldn't the
compiler assume that it's an int?
The format string tells the function to expect a Py_ssize_t, but how
would the compiler know that?
Looking at https://www.mankier.com/3/zosc, it says for 'T' and 'F' "(no
value required)", but you're doing:
int rc = zosc_pop_bool(oscmsg, &bl);
If no value is required, is there a bool there to be popped?
