Python tests fails with a core dump when xapian available as a module and compile with Sun cc

[aug04acc]

Building Python 2.4.3 on Solaris 9 with the Sun Studio 11 (Sun C 5.8) and additional modules pysqlite 1.1.7, Xapian 0.9.6 crashes the Python "make test" in several tests. Below first the instructions how Python, pysqlite and Xapian was build are given, then the output of the Python "make test" and finally the stack trace. The effective of this core dump is, that the application roundup 1.1.2 will not run because the generation of the Xapian based index fails.

I forgot to mention, build everything with gcc works fine. But it creates issues distributing the binaries to other machines. The behavior is identical on Solaris 9 Sparc and Solaris 10 HW 01/6 x86.

[olly]

Could you try to cut this down to something which doesn't involve sqllite or roundup? i.e. just a simple python script using the xapian python bindings.

[aug04acc]

Calling the example

chmod +x /usr/share/doc/xapian-bindings/python/examples/simpleindex.py

/usr/share/doc/xapian-bindings/python/examples/simpleindex.py dada

creates a core dump. See the details "xapian_solaris_sun_c_build_20060830.txt" how I build it. The analysis of the core file is in the attachments "xapian_core_dbx_20060830" and "xapian_core_pstack_20060830".

[olly]

Two initial comments:

./configure --prefix=/usr --without-gcc

There is no "--without-gcc" option (but configure ignores any --with-X, --without-X, --enable-X, or --disable-X which it doesn't recognise so this doesn't give an error).

##- Fix the trailing commas in version.h cp -p include/xapian/version.h include/xapian/version.h.orig sed 's/ ,$//' include/xapian/version.h.orig > include/xapian/version.h

This shouldn't be necessary (and I've just committed a fix) - please report build problems rather than just working around them!

I'm looking at the other files now.

[olly]

It's failing trying to assign from a static std::string to a std::string.

I suspect the issue is that the constructors on static objects aren't getting called so the static std::string is never initialised. This should happen when python loads the xapian shared library, but I guess it doesn't when compiled with the Sun C++ compiler. I'm afraid I don't know much about how the Sun C++ compiler handles such things. In this case, we could rework to avoid the static string, but I suspect there other instances we can't easily get rid of.

You could try linking python using the C++ compiler. Or if that doesn't help, perhaps try statically linking Xapian and the SWIG glue into python.

Thanks for your help. I am currently applying the latest Sun patches for Solaris 10 x86. There are some patches related to the compiler

119964-07 SunOS 5.10_x86: Shared library patch for C++_x86 120759-08 Sun Studio 11_x86: Sun Compiler Common patch for x86 backend 121018-04 Sun Studio 11_x86: Patch for Sun C++ 5.8 compiler 121016-03 Sun Studio 11_x86: Patch for Sun C_x86 5.8 Compiler 121616-02 Sun Studio 11_x86: Patch for Sun dbx 7.5_x86 Debugger 120762-02 Sun Studio 11_x86: Patch for Performance Analyzer Tools

I let you know if this changes things.

You say, the Sun c++ compiler does not correctly initialise constructors for static objects. If I would open a call to Sun service, do you have a small example code that would explain this behavior?

[aug04acc]

Updating the system with the mentioned patches did not change the behavior. I re-compiled everthing from scratch and still it core dumps the same way.

One comment on the work-arounds I used for the build on Solaris 9 or 10. It would be great if the reference to the standard library '-lm' could be included by the configure script. I used

LDFLAGS="-lm"; export LDFLAGS

instead.

Does this problem still occur with 1.0.6?

The "-lm" issue should be fixed when we move to libtool 2.2.x (probably with Xapian 1.1.0) as that has better support for Sun C++, including fixing this particular issue.

No feedback from the original reporter for 2 months, so resolving as "incomplete".

configuration file for "pkgbuild"

configuration file for "pkgbuild"

.spec file for pkgbuild for xapian-core

.spec file for pkgbuild for xapian-bindings

This was the feedback given in April 2008 to the status of the reported problem.

The problem is fixed indeed with version 1.0.6. Still '-lm' has to be added, as you mention. This is easily added, but to a rushing user it is an extra burdon.

I compiled the sources on Solaris 9 with Sun Studio 12. This might has helped too, since Sun claims that Sun Studio 12 is more gcc compliant. Since I do not have the knowledge I really can't tell. Basically the compilation is now

PATH=/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin; export PATH CC=cc; export CC CXX=CC; export CXX LDFLAGS="%_ldflags -lm"; export LDFLAGS

./configure --prefix=%{_prefix} \

--bindir=%{_bindir} \ --libdir=%{_libdir} \ --sysconfdir=%{_sysconfdir} \ --includedir=%{_includedir} \ --mandir=%{_mandir} \ --infodir=%{_infodir} \ --disable-static \ --docdir=%{_docdir}/%{name}/ \ --without-gcc \ --enable-shared

make

Details you can find in the attach two .spec files which I have used on Solaris to build the Solaris packages for xapian-core and xapian-bindings. I used pkgbuild, which is a tool developed and used for the JDK on OpenSolaris?. Pkgbuild takes an RPM spec file and produces a Solaris Sys V package, which is quite handy.

I'd not seen this feedback before - thanks for resending it.

We're going to use libtool 2.2 for Xapian 1.1 which should fix the -lm issue, but I'm reluctant to upgrade the 1.0.x branch to a new major libtool release at this point in the release cycle.

It would probably be useful to other users if we could make these build files available, but they say they are (C) Sun with no licence so we can't really assume we are able to distribute them. I think the references to Gnome need replacing too, but I'm not sure what section the package should have as I don't know what the available values are.

"--without-gcc" doesn't mean anything to our configure scripts incidentally, but it will just be ignored, so it's not harmful.

Sorry for the late reply. But I was on vacation and then quite busy.

I did contact Sun about the copyrights in the spec or inc files. Their reply was, since those files are on the openSolaris repository they are free software under the COMMON DEVELOPMENT AND DISTRIBUTION LICENSE (CDDL) and an OSI-approved open source license. Any removal of Copyright or the reference to GNOME, JDK, etc. they didn't want to accept.

Since the '.inc' are created in the context of the JDK desktop (GNOME-based) those files have the reference to this environment as you have seen.

To give you a chance to publish those files without those copyrights and reference, I have created '.spec'-files which are without any reference to the JDK environment. Those are limited adapted for x86 Solaris. The compile and linker options for SPARC would be different. In the file "installing_build_xapian_solaris10.txt" I explain how I did set up a Solaris 10 05/8 x86 machine with Studio 12. Furthermore it includes the building and installation of pkgbuild (the building tool for .spec files) and the building and installation of xapian.

I have also added a howto for your wiki. Since I didn't know exactly where and how to add a new wiki page (it does not fit as a FAQ), I just add it here in case you want to use it.

The mentioned information I have sent to nobody@…. I don't see how I can add attachment in this interface.
