Subject: Core Dump in random_binomial
Hello, random_binomial dumps core during make test on AIX 5.2.0.0 with Perl 5.8.8 and both 0.67 and 0.68. I'll happily debug as much as possible, but I'm not sure where to start. I had a clean make: dlink@ccb690[743] >> perl Makefile.PL Writing Makefile for Math::Random dlink@ccb690[744] >> make gcc -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE - DUSE_NATIVE_DLOPEN -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include - D_LARGE_FILES -O -DVERSION=\"0.68\" -DXS_VERSION=\"0.68\" "-I/ db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/lib/5.8.7/aix/CORE" Random.c gcc -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE - DUSE_NATIVE_DLOPEN -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include - D_LARGE_FILES -O -DVERSION=\"0.68\" -DXS_VERSION=\"0.68\" "-I/ db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/lib/5.8.7/aix/CORE" com.c gcc -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE - DUSE_NATIVE_DLOPEN -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include - D_LARGE_FILES -O -DVERSION=\"0.68\" -DXS_VERSION=\"0.68\" "-I/ db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/lib/5.8.7/aix/CORE" helper.c gcc -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE - DUSE_NATIVE_DLOPEN -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include - D_LARGE_FILES -O -DVERSION=\"0.68\" -DXS_VERSION=\"0.68\" "-I/ db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/lib/5.8.7/aix/CORE" linpack.c gcc -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE - DUSE_NATIVE_DLOPEN -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include - D_LARGE_FILES -O -DVERSION=\"0.68\" -DXS_VERSION=\"0.68\" "-I/ db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/lib/5.8.7/aix/CORE" randlib.c Running Mkbootstrap for Math::Random () chmod 644 Random.bs rm -f blib/arch/auto/Math/Random/Random.so gcc -Wl,-bhalt:4 -Wl,-bexpall -Wl,-G -Wl,-bnoentry -lc -L/usr/local/ lib Random.o com.o helper.o linpack.o randlib.o -o blib/arch/auto/Math/ Random/Random.so \ -lm \ chmod 755 blib/arch/auto/Math/Random/Random.so cp Random.bs blib/arch/auto/Math/Random/Random.bs chmod 644 blib/arch/auto/Math/Random/Random.bs Manifying blib/man3/Math::Random.3 But fail make test: dlink@ccb690[745] >> make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /db2blast/Paul/perl5.8.7/bin/perl "-Iblib/lib" "- Iblib/arch" test.pl 1..16 ok 1 random_uniform..................ok 2 random_uniform_integer..........ok 3 random_permutation..............ok 4 random_permuted_index...........ok 5 random_normal...................ok 6 random_chi_square...............ok 7 random_f........................ok 8 random_beta.....................ok 9 random_binomial.................make: *** [test_dynamic] Segmentation fault (core dumped) I am using gcc 4.0.1: dlink@ccb690[746] >> gcc -v Using built-in specs.

Hi, I replicated this on a second box, also with gcc 4.0.1, but this time with Perl 5.8.7 and AIX 5.3.0.0. On Mon Jul 10 12:22:25 2006, guest wrote: Show quoted text

Paul and I corresponded on this problem but were unable to reach a conclusion. Unfortunately, I don't have an AIX machine to test on. gcc might be performing some funky optimization; if so, compiling with -O0 (to turn off optimizations) should help. If more details become available, I will gladly take another look.
