2020-08-13 Thread Stefan Krah
Stefan Krah added the comment: We need more information. Is this 64-bit AIX? How much physical memory does the machine have? Linux also has over-allocation and the default for ulimit is unlimited. But it does not attempt to over-allocate such an outrageous amount of memory. Neither do

Stefan Krah added the comment: The test (size > (size_t)PY_SSIZE_T_MAX)) has nothing to do with it. Within Python, most sizes are ssize_t, so a value larger than SSIZE_MAX is suspicious. AIX is an unsupported platform. Realistically, if people want AIX to be supported, someone has to g

Stefan Krah added the comment: Thank you, David! Now that I can test on AIX, I can confirm that the data limit is the culprit: libmpdec deliberately calls malloc(52631578947368422ULL) in the maxprec tests, which is supposed to fail, but succeeds. However, instead of freezing the machine

Stefan Krah added the comment: To recap for people who find this: The problem occurs because of AIX's extreme over-allocation and is specific to the 64-bit build. Workarounds: 1) Something like ulimit -d 800. 2) xlc: LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64 -q64 -bmaxdata:0x8"
