New submission from Gregory P. Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I disabled the Lib/bsddb/test/test_lock.py test03_set_timeout test as it crashes the interpreter when compiled in debug mode with an UNREF test. It appears to happen on all platforms according to the buildbots.
This is not a new problem, it exists in 2.5 if a backport the recent updates to this test. I did a little bit of debugging and it looks like the UNREF failure occurs when the call to DBEnv.lock_get is has exited and Python is freeing the internal callargs tuple passed as arguments to the method. A pointer in the callargs._ob_prev structure had the 0xdbdbdbdb value which I believe is a sign of BerkeleyDB overwriting the memory. Jesus, can you look into this one? ---------- components: Extension Modules messages: 66845 nosy: gregory.p.smith, jcea priority: high severity: normal status: open title: bsddb.db.DBEnv.lock_get test_lock.test03_set_timeout crashes type: crash versions: Python 2.5, Python 2.6 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2858> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
