[issue14779] test_buffer fails on OS X universal 64-/32-bit builds

2012-05-12 Thread Stefan Krah

Stefan Krah stefan-use...@bytereef.org added the comment:

Apparently the AS/400 had 128 bit pointers and IBM's System i still has them:

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.programming.garbage-collection.boehmgc/651
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27019425


So I'll leave the SIZEOF_VOID_P test as the preferred method. Perhaps
the best way to sidestep all these issues would be to write a small
C module for getting type sizes.

2012-05-11 Thread Stefan Krah

Stefan Krah stefan-use...@bytereef.org added the comment:

The sysconfig docs say: configuration variables relevant for the
current platform

If get_config_var('SIZEOF_VOID_P') is meaningless for universal builds,
then IMO it should return None. None would then mean either not found
or irrelevant.

Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr added the comment:

Well, no need to ever use SIZEOF_VOID_P. sys.maxsize should always tell you 
whether the build is 32-bit or 64-bit.

2012-05-11 Thread Stefan Krah

Stefan Krah stefan-use...@bytereef.org added the comment:

The tests for arrays with suboffsets literally need sizeof(void *).

I don't think C guarantees SIZEOF_VOID_P == SIZEOF_SIZE_T. If HAVE_SSIZE_T
is defined in pyport.h, AFAICS no such check is made.

Of course these concerns may be entirely theoretical. :)

[issue14779] test_buffer fails on OS X universal 64-/32-bit builds

2012-05-10 Thread Ned Deily

New submission from Ned Deily n...@acm.org:

test_buffer can fail when run on an OS X 64-/32-bit universal build of Python 
is run in 32-bit mode.

$ /usr/local/bin/python3.3 -m test test_buffer
[1/1] test_buffer
1 test OK.
$ /usr/local/bin/python3.3-32 -m test -v test_buffer
== CPython 3.3.0a3 (v3.3.0a3:0b53b70a40a0, May 1 2012, 11:39:35) [GCC 4.2.1 
(Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)]
==   Darwin-11.4.0-x86_64-i386-64bit little-endian
==   /private/var/folders/fm/9wjgctqx61n796zt88qmmnxcgn/T/test_python_56263

dont_write_bytecode=0, no_user_site=0, no_site=0, ignore_environment=0, 
verbose=0, bytes_warning=0, quiet=0, hash_randomization=1)
[1/1] test_buffer

test_ndarray_multidim (test.test_buffer.TestBufferProtocol) ... FAIL
test_ndarray_slice_assign_single (test.test_buffer.TestBufferProtocol) ... FAIL
[...]

The test is incorrectly testing a compile-time configuration variable which is 
not meaningful for universal builds since each architecture can have different 
values.  Further, the platform.architecture fallback test is also unreliable; 
as noted in the docs for the platform module, sys.maxsize should be used for 
run-time tests.  The attached patch fixes the test for OS X.
