[issue24741] Hangs and errors while testing on Ubuntu/Intel
R. David Murray added the comment: You are on your own for AIX debugging, I'm afraid. You can try the #python-dev channel on freenode for questions about how things work in general. If you find real problems with the python code you can open new issues (we have accepted patches for AIX when they were not AIX specific or were adjustments to existing AIX conditionals...we need an AIX buildbot to provide real AIX support). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24741 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue24741] Hangs and errors while testing on Ubuntu/Intel
REIX Tony added the comment: Hum I'm now building Python 2.7.10 RPMs on AIX. The .spec file works fine. However, when adding make test in the .spec file, I've got the tests blocked in test_io. The same with 2.7.6 . Going into the directory and trying make quicktest, it is now blocked after test_signal : # ps -edf | grep python root 154010881 0 11:54:03 pts/1 4:49 ./python -Wd -3 -E -tt ./Lib/test/regrtest.py -l Retrying with 2.7.6, it is blocked again with test_io. OK. Either it is a general issue with Python tests, or there is an issue on AIX.

[issue24741] Hangs and errors while testing on Ubuntu/Intel
REIX Tony added the comment: Thnaks for the information. I'm surprised that: $ make test Go.res3 21 makes issues that do not appear with: $ nohup make test Go.res3 21 Anyway, we know the root cause now, and there is a work-around. So, closing the defect is OK for me. About the comment Python has been used on AIX by other, I'm sure that Python2 has been ported on AIX. About Python3, I have found no one for AIX. I'll have another look. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24741 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Stefan Krah added the comment: $ make test Go.res3 21 The test suite does seem to behave poorly when run in the background: I'm getting constant swapping, excessive kworker activity, and indeed, one hang. With nohup prepended at least the tests have finished now. I'm not sure if the tests are meant to be run in the background. -- nosy: +skrah status: pending - open ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24741 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

R. David Murray added the comment: We certainly don't regularly test running them that way :) It might be interesting to make it possible, if it doesn't require too many changes to the tests. Excessive swapping seems like an odd symptom; I'm sure the explanation will be interesting if someone decides to figure it out. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24741 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

R. David Murray added the comment: Let's close it, since we've identified the problem and it is not something we currently support. If someone finds this and wants to work on it they can open a new issue. (It reopened because I had it set to pending...I didn't close it because I thought someone else might have some relevant insight, as proved to be the case...) -- resolution: - not a bug stage: - resolved status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24741 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

R. David Murray added the comment: Since Ubuntu is one of the platforms that gets thoroughly tested and neither the buildbots nor other users have reported issues, your best source for help on this is probably either the python-list mailing list, or an Ubuntu forum. FYI the 3.4 buildbots are currently testing 3.4 tip, which will eventually become 3.4.4. Also, Python has been used on AIX by others, have you already looked for an existing distribution? If you find you really have identified bugs in python, you can update this issue. -- nosy: +r.david.murray status: open - pending ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue24741 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
