Issue #21534 has been updated by jaruga (Jun Aruga). Subject changed from ppc64le bootstraptest/test_ractor.rb aborted (core dumped) on configure cppflags=-DRUBY_DEBUG to ppc64le bootstraptest/test_ractor.rb aborted (core dumped) on configure cppflags=-DRUBY_DEBUG and -O3 I want to lower my priority for this task, because the issue only can happen on the configuring with cppflags=-DRUBY_DEBUG and -O3. The case is not a typical workflow. And if I find the root cause of this issue, I need to prepare a minimal reproducer in the C language level to report this issue to GCC project. I suspect this may be a GCC ppc64le bug. However, it looks hard to find the minimal reproducer especially when the issue is related to Ractor, a parallel execution. ---------------------------------------- Bug #21534: ppc64le bootstraptest/test_ractor.rb aborted (core dumped) on configure cppflags=-DRUBY_DEBUG and -O3 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21534#change-114490 * Author: jaruga (Jun Aruga) * Status: Open * Assignee: ractor * Backport: 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- I am seeing the following errors in the Ubuntu 24.04 noble server "Ubuntu (ppc64le)" on RubyCI on the relatively latest master branch commit `f3206cc79bec2fd852e81ec56de59f0a67ab32b7`. Originally I found the errors at <https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/13972#issuecomment-3160768404>. ## Reproducing the errors ``` $ grep ^VERSION /etc/os-release VERSION_ID="24.04" VERSION="24.04.3 LTS (Noble Numbat)" VERSION_CODENAME=noble $ uname -m ppc64le $ uname -r 6.8.0-71-generic ``` ``` $ pwd /home/jaruga/git/ruby/ruby ``` The following `configure` script's options comes from the `.github/workflows/ubuntu.yml`. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/24d0b458cd6ccde1e052c1db15af120def349693/.... ``` $ ./autogen.sh $ ./configure -C --disable-install-doc cppflags=-DRUBY_DEBUG $ make -j4 ``` Then the 2 assertions in the following tests always fail. ``` $ make btest BTESTS=bootstraptest/test_ractor.rb ... #65 test_ractor.rb:1016: ... #92 test_ractor.rb:1451: ... FAIL 2/147 tests failed make: *** [uncommon.mk:913: yes-btest] Error 1 ``` ``` $ make btest-ruby BTESTS=bootstraptest/test_ractor.rb ... #65 test_ractor.rb:1016: ... #92 test_ractor.rb:1451: ... FAIL 2/145 tests failed make: *** [uncommon.mk:921: yes-btest-ruby] Error 1 ``` And the `test_ractor_1.rb` is a minimal reproducer so far I found for the 1st failing assertion. ``` $ cat test_ractor_1.rb # Ractor.count counts = [] counts << Ractor.count p counts.inspect ractors = (1..2).map { Ractor.new { Ractor.receive } } counts << Ractor.count p counts.inspect ractors[0].send('End 0').join sleep 0.1 until ractors[0].inspect =~ /terminated/ counts << Ractor.count p counts.inspect ractors[1].send('End 1').join sleep 0.1 until ractors[1].inspect =~ /terminated/ counts << Ractor.count p counts.inspect ``` Then the following test fails once in 2 or 3 times. Below is a passing case. ``` $ make run TESTRUN_SCRIPT=test_ractor_1.rb ./miniruby -I./lib -I. -I.ext/common -r./powerpc64le-linux-fake test_ractor_1.rb "[1]" test_ractor_1.rb:6: warning: Ractor is experimental, and the behavior may change in future versions of Ruby! Also there are many implementation issues. "[1, 3]" "[1, 3, 2]" "[1, 3, 2, 1]" ``` Below is a failing (aborting) case. ``` $ make run TESTRUN_SCRIPT=test_ractor_1.rb ./miniruby -I./lib -I. -I.ext/common -r./powerpc64le-linux-fake test_ractor_1.rb "[1]" test_ractor_1.rb:6: warning: Ractor is experimental, and the behavior may change in future versions of Ruby!
