Pypy 3.9 segfaults while rewriting test assertions

  • [x] a detailed description of the bug or problem you are having

When testing the project I work on in CI I frequently see a segfault in pytest's test assert rewriting when running with pypy 3.9. (I haven't yet seen it with 3.10, but I only just added that to CI.)

Thanks for the report! I think this is probably a PyPy bug, but let's see if we can narrow it down a bit before we report it upstream.

Since it seems to happen while rewriting assertions, I expect it's possible to trigger this with a single test file, and there's good tooling to analyse what's happening from there.

  • Do you have a reproducible example? The goal here is a local shell command which reliably triggers the segfault, even if we have to run pytest many times in a loop - debugging when you have to wait for CI each time is... not fun, and being unable to trust your observations is even worse.
  • Let's try to narrow down which files are implicated. Can you run pytest on (roughly) half of your test suite, and bisect that way? Alternatively, you could patch pytest to print what module it's about to rewrite (with flush=True) and then see what's printed just before the segfault.
  • Try simplifying the environment and removing dependencies. This is much easier once you have a single file; at that point try deleting chunks of code, imports, etc. with the goal of reproducing in a virtual environment with no proprietary code - that confirms it's an OSS bug somewhere, and lets us try to debug it too.

Zac-HD avatar Jul 04 '23 18:07 Zac-HD

Sigh, I've spent the whole evening trying to replicate locally and every time the test suite has just passed without triggering the segfault. I've also tried running the github action locally using https://github.com/nektos/act and also gotten nowhere. I'm not sure where to go from here. :disappointed:

LilyFoote avatar Jul 04 '23 21:07 LilyFoote

Thank you for trying! This is the worst kind of bug, to be clear, https://github.com/HypothesisWorks/hypothesis/issues/3028 got us stuck for several months before we actually worked it out.

Maybe it's dependent on something about the virtualization setup, or on the hardware architecture of your CI runners? Do you know what the physical CPU is on those machines?

Zac-HD avatar Jul 04 '23 21:07 Zac-HD

Perhaps trying to get something like gdb -ex "set debuginfod enabled on" -ex r -ex bt -ex q --args $(which python) -m pytest to run on GitHub Actions could help, since it hopefully will end up displaying a C stacktrace.

The-Compiler avatar Jul 04 '23 21:07 The-Compiler

I can now confirm I see this sometimes with pypy 3.10.

@Zac-HD I think the physical cpu is AMD, but I don't know specifics beyond that.

I have also added the gdb command @The-Compiler recommended and I got this:

Run gdb -ex "set debuginfod enabled on" -ex r -ex bt -ex q --args $(which python) -m coverage run -m pytest --ignore=tests/simplepoll

Yeah, that looks like it crashes somewhere deep inside PyPy internals. I'm not really familiar with them, unfortunately. Perhaps it would make more sense to report this there?

The-Compiler avatar Jul 05 '23 18:07 The-Compiler

I have reported this to the pypy project, with some further investigation of my own: https://foss.heptapod.net/pypy/pypy/-/issues/3960

LilyFoote avatar Jul 07 '23 10:07 LilyFoote

thanks for investigating this, @LilyFoote! that gdb traceback is actually helpful to me! I'm going to try to find out what exactly is crashing.

it's likely something like: pytest assert rewriting produces an AST that is slightly different than what PyPy's ast-to-bytecode compiler expects. and instead of reporting that error sensibly, pypy just segfaults.

cfbolz avatar Jul 07 '23 10:07 cfbolz

is there any chance we could try to pretty-print the AST in the CI run that segfaults, before it is passed into compile in the last line of _rewrite_test here?: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/blob/main/src/_pytest/assertion/rewrite.py#L342

cfbolz avatar Jul 07 '23 10:07 cfbolz

I trying to get this using a fork of pytest and @LilyFoote's reproducer repo, waiting for results here: https://github.com/cfbolz/pypy-segfault/actions/runs/5485589082/jobs/9994579372

cfbolz avatar Jul 07 '23 10:07 cfbolz

@cfbolz You'll need to enable buildjet: https://buildjet.com/for-github-actions/docs/getting-started/run-your-first-workflow

Thankfully, they have a $5 credit so you don't need to pay until that runs out.

LilyFoote avatar Jul 07 '23 11:07 LilyFoote

ah, I see. they still want a credit card, which I don't have. if I open a PR on your repo with my changes, we could run it on your repo, if that's ok for you @LilyFoote?

cfbolz avatar Jul 07 '23 11:07 cfbolz

open one in any case: https://github.com/LilyFoote/pypy-segfault/pull/1

cfbolz avatar Jul 07 '23 11:07 cfbolz

(I work with @LilyFoote )

Just in case it's useful to anyone reading through this thread and considering investigating further, Adam from Buildjet did mention the following to us via email:

I'm not sure if our expertise can help with debugging this problem, but we are more than happy to provide free credits to anyone willing to figure it out. Just let me know what account to apply it for, or tell them to message me about, I'll add a large amount of free credits to their account. For context, on the <32vCPU runners, we use AMD 5950x CPUs, and they're accompanied by ECC RAM. Best, Adam

Best email seems to be: [email protected]

wilhelmklopp avatar Aug 23 '23 12:08 wilhelmklopp

Unsure if this is the same thing, but I'm seeing very similar errors on vanilla EC2 instances. Occasional (but consistent) segfaults - and once also this:

    from base_service.tests.calculator.test_helpers import AllProducts
pypy3-venv/lib/pypy3.9/site-packages/_pytest/assertion/rewrite.py:163: in exec_module
    source_stat, co = _rewrite_test(fn, self.config)
pypy3-venv/lib/pypy3.9/site-packages/_pytest/assertion/rewrite.py:347: in _rewrite_test
    co = compile(tree, strfn, "exec", dont_inherit=True)
E   TypeError: expected some sort of stmt, got <ast.Name object at 0x00000000126c74c0>

which seems to chime with the theory about slightly different ast representations.

I'm using pytest_xdist and pytest_randomly which means the subset of tests executed in each process changes between test runs. I assume this error occurs only when the subset is just right

olliemath avatar Sep 11 '23 18:09 olliemath

Trio's encountered this in python 3.10 on GitHub Actions with pypy 7.3.13: https://github.com/python-trio/trio/actions/runs/6952653687/job/18916563822. Not sure if this helps anything but this shows it can happen w/ GitHub Actions and with the 3.10 build. I'll see if I can reproduce this in act!

EDIT: unfortunately I don't seem to be able to reproduce this.

A5rocks avatar Nov 22 '23 04:11 A5rocks

@A5rocks oh that's great! all my attempts to reproduce locally this or understand what's going on has failed so far. if you found a way to get the problem locally, that would be fantastic.

cfbolz avatar Nov 22 '23 09:11 cfbolz

I've reproduced this with a print(ast.dump(tree)). I just don't know which tree might have caused it: https://github.com/A5rocks/trio/actions/runs/7054713178/job/19204406549

A5rocks avatar Dec 01 '23 02:12 A5rocks

unfortunately I am still not making any progress on this :-(. My attempts to reproduce this locally have all not worked so far. if I take the dumped ASTs and call rewrite_asserts on them, that works fine. @A5rocks did you manage to get it to fail in act?

cfbolz avatar Jan 09 '24 11:01 cfbolz

I realized I was being stupid and that the GH actions run I posted before printed the ast after rewrite_asserts. You can see that ast.dump is in the stack trace, so it's erroring on printing the bad ast.

So I made it print before in https://github.com/A5rocks/trio/actions/runs/7439290913/job/20239062451 but then I tried reproducing locally by running rewrite_asserts on the final AST printed a bunch and then running ast.dump but it didn't segfault. I'm on Windows and didn't feel like setting up WSL at the time though.

A5rocks avatar Jan 09 '24 15:01 A5rocks

have reported this to the pypy project, with some further investigation of my own: https://foss.heptapod.net/pypy/pypy/-/issues/3960

fwiw, PyPy has moved to github, so the upstream issue is now at https://github.com/pypy/pypy/issues/3959

just to give a brief update, I am finally making progress on the bug. it's very likely not related to pytest at all, but a bug in pypy's GC(!) that just accidentally seems to manifest in pytest AST rewriting (in several projects). I hope to get a fix merged in the next week or two.

Awesome!! I'd love to see a write up of the problem once you've fixed it.
