I've been trying to get Guile 2.2 to build and pass the tests on all of
the Debian architectures again, and at this point, the release[1]
architectures are OK except i386 and ppc64el (and armel, which is still
building...).
Initially amd64 was failing in test-out-of-memory, but changing
-fstack-protector-strong to -fno-stack-protector seemed to fix it.
However, that test is dying in the same way on ppc64el:
GC Warning: Failed to expand heap by 8388608 bytes
GC Warning: Failed to expand heap by 8388608 bytes
GC Warning: Failed to expand heap by 65536 bytes
GC Warning: Out of Memory! Heap size: 27 MiB. Returning NULL!
GC Warning: Failed to expand heap by 8388608 bytes
GC Warning: Failed to expand heap by 65536 bytes
GC Warning: Out of Memory! Heap size: 27 MiB. Returning NULL!
Warning: Unwind-only `out-of-memory' exception; skipping pre-unwind handler.
FAIL: test-out-of-memory
==================================
1 of 39 tests failed
Please report to bug-gu...@gnu.org
==================================
Makefile:2630: recipe for target 'check-TESTS' failed
Preliminary investigation suggests that test-out-of-memory makes it past
the first two tests, and dies on:
(test (lambda ()
;; This one is the kicker -- we allocate pairs until the heap
;; can't expand. This is the hardest test to deal with because
;; the error-handling machinery has no memory in which to work.
(iota #e1e8)))
The i386 build has a different problem, it never finishes sandbox.test,
hanging here at 100+% CPU:
Running rnrs-libraries.test
Running rtl-compilation.test
Running rtl.test
Running sandbox.test
I thought I'd bring this up in case either is something you've seen
before. In addition, I can reproduce both failures on Debian
porterboxes, and would be happy to help if I can.
(And of course, if it made sense, we could also mark a test as unresolved for
the moment.)
