Ref counting for Singular rings
Python makes no guarantees that destructors are called if circular references are involved. This patch implements an extra Python proxy layer that correctly refcounts Singular rings. In contrast to our earlier code, it will release the singular rings once they are no longer in use. This triggers various issues in Sage/libSingular that are dealt with in the follow-up ticket #10903
Historic discussion
As described for the Sage on Gentoo project, there is a problem in how parts of sage use __deallocate__
in their Cython code. I've actually traced an instance of groebner_strategy.pyx causing segmentation faults under Python 2.7.
What happens is that the garbage collector invokes the tp_clear function for the object. Its implementation is provided by Cython, and one of its effects is that every python reference will be set to None
. A bit later on, tp_dealloc is called and invokes the __deallocate__
method. By that time, _parent
is None
, so accessing _parent._ring
is a bad idea, and in this case it turns out to be null.
Others have had similar problems before. There are crude workarounds floating around. I guess a proper solution would be twaking cython to allow custom code in the tp_clear function. In other words, have a "magic" mehod __clear__
similar to the magic __deallocate__
. But I'll wait for comments here first, before taking this to cython upstream. Perhaps people with more experience have better solutions to offer. And I won't mind if you decide to take this to Cython devs yourselves.

Thanks for your input Volker. I think we should definitely put some work in libs/singular to have some del and dealloc functions. I think the current state of things in there is a bit messy. I remember reading about del in the python doc about garbage collection and wondering why singular_ring_delete in libs/singular/rings.pyx wasn't a del method instead as its intent is clear.
comment:4 Changed 11 years ago by
Just to clarify, right now Cython extension classes do not call the Python destructor __del__
upon finalization, so Sage can't rely on this mechanism. I'm not quite sure if it is an intentional thing or if the Cython devs just haven't gotten around to implementing it. Maybe we can hack on that on Sage Days 31 since both Robert and Burcin will be around :-)
comment:5 Changed 11 years ago by
OK, well something as to be done about this if we want to move to python-2.7. I think this problem is probably the biggest issue in the way of #9958 there are a few other things to look at but that's the only one producing a segfault.
comment:6 Changed 11 years ago by
I notice that PyTypeObject has a member tp_del
which is not included in the documentation. So perhaps it's as simple as associating a function with that slot. Otoh, perhaps there is a reason that member isn't documented. The single reply to Python issue 4934 doesn't rule out that possibility.

For the record this works with sage-on-gentoo with python-2.7.1 so as far as I am concerned it works as advertised so far. I can do a review against a vanilla sage using python-2.6 later this week provided that I get the all clear to go back to work (we got a couple more earthquakes down here - the magnitude 6 one was scary but very few people got hurt).
What is the "workaround hg bundle" Martin? I can reformat things if needed.

It's what I perceived to be the hg equivalent of a "bzr send": a file which describes a number of hg commits inclusing metadata, so that other hg users can pull from it. See hg manual for unbundle and related documentation.

This patch works fine for me too on sage-on-gentoo with python-2.7.1. I have applied this patch to the vanilla sage-4.7.1.alpha2 (python-2.6.4.p10) spkg and all long tests pass. I have also applied the patch along with the patches and required spkgs in ticket #9958 to the sage-4.7.1.alpha2 (python-2.7.1) spkg and all the tests that failed without this patch because of segfaults, i.e.
sage -t -force_lib "devel/sage/sage/schemes/generic/scheme.py"
sage -t -force_lib "devel/sage/sage/rings/morphism.pyx"
sage -t -force_lib "devel/sage/sage/rings/homset.py"
now pass.

As it is, the patch is spectacularly ugly. I agree that it works, but we should investigate alternatives. It is not a particularly pressing issue since Sage is not going to switch to Python-2.7 this week. I'll have a closer look at it with Burcin duing this week at SD31.
comment:14 Changed 11 years ago by
I am ok with this. I don't plan to push python-2.7.1 in 4.7.1. I would like most of the other pending bits and pieces that will make testing easier to be in 4.7.1 however. It would be nice if at least some testing could be done in 4.7.2 and really land it by the next release.

I agree, that's why I titled the patch "workaround" instead of "solution". I can't think of a way to address this in sage alone, though, as in my opinion a proper solution would entail modifications to cython as discussed above.

In the case at hand we don't really need the Cython class GroebnerStrategy._parent
, only the C struct GroebnerStrategy._parent._ring
is used in __deallocate__()
. I've made a minimal patch that adds a cdef ring *_parent_ring
data member to GroebnerStrategy
to keep track of the ring only. Because it refers to a C struct, it is safe to access it the Cython destructor. Because parents are immutable we don't have to worry about the ring *
pointer becoming invalid.
The patch should fix the crash, but I don't have a Sage-on-Python-2.7 install to test it. Can somebody give it a try?

Can you explain this in more detail? Why does the parent object being immutable help in keeping the pointer valid? Do you mean that the parent cython object doesn't change it's ring member? That is correct, but not enough to make the approach safe: if you don't keep a reference to the parent python object around, python might decide to garbage-collect that first, leading to a call to the singula function rDelete. I guess that function at least frees the memory, so if you are unlucky, some thread will overwrite the memory that ring points to with completely different data. Of course, in most cases you'd be lucky, so you wouldn't notice the problem. But unless singular does some reference counting of its own in such a way that a rDelete call on the parent won't have immediate effect, your approach isn't safe.

Here, the new patch doesn't solve the segfault problems when applied to sage-on-gentoo. In testing vanilla Sage with python-2.7.1 I've been patching the Sage spkg and then building. So my sage-main isn't a pristine sage-4.7.1.alpha2 with python-2.7.1. However the last patch that I've applied is the bug11339a patch. So, I cloned Sage to the patchset just prior to this last patch, apply the new patch and issued 'sage -ba'. The 3 tests listed #comment:11 all segfault. Let me know if you think my results are "overly" tainted.

Does it depend on other patches that are post 4.7.1.alpha2? The feedback so far is that it doesn't work but I noticed there was some work in singular and rings in alpha3 and alpha4. Would it rely on any of these fixes?

By immutable I meant that the ring of the Parent object can't change. But I wasn't aware that the parent is part of the cycle that the garbage collector is trying to break, then it won't work of course.
Actually, if the cycle is Parent <-> GroebnerStrategy? then I don't understand Martin's orginal patch. By manually increasing the refcount of Parent by one, the garbage collector should conclude that an external reference is keeping the cycle alive, right? Hence __dealloc__
would never be run. This fixes the crash, of course, but at the cost of leaking memory?
I'm leaning towards refcounting the libsingular rings in C. This would be rather easy to implement, I think.
Also, Burcin told me that the need to explicitly reset the ring after the groebner strategy is going to go away in the future. But I would wager that Sage is going to transition to Python 3 first ;-)

I'm not sure there really is a cycle. I had interpreted the situation in such a way that tp_clear will be called for unreachable objects just in case there might be some kind of cycle between them. So there might be no actual cycle involved at all, or it might be with some other member object. One requirement is that the function does cut all cycles, which should work as the parent shouldn't be referring back to the Gröbner strategy. So by keeping the reference in one direction, we satisfy tp_clear and still manage to finalize things. As a bonus, we ensure their finalization in the correct order.
But I might be completely off target with my above understanding. Someone with intricate knowledge of python, its evolution, as well as cython, might know better.
Until then, someone could add breakpoints to see if the finalizer is executed with my patch in place. Don't have the time just now, but might do it myself in a week or so if you remind me.
comment:23 Changed 11 years ago by
The Python docs say "The tp_clear
member function is used to break reference cycles in cyclic garbage detected by the garbage collector.", so there must have been a cycle involving the GroebnerStrategy
instance.
I looked a bit at the source and we definitely have cycles ideal<->GroebnerStrategy
. Both refer to the parent ring, and this explains why tp_clear
was called on GroebnerStrategy
. I haven't found a place where the parent refers back to the cycle. In this situation Martin's patch should work as we can get rid of the cycle while the parent has positive refcount. It could be that Python 2.7 got smarter and deletes the parent together with the cycle while Python 2.6 first deleted the cycle and only then noticed that nothing else refers to the parent any more. This would explain why Martin's patch works but my attempt of blindly accessing the ring C structure fails on Python 2.7.
There is a lot of stuff that could conceivably create a larger cycle involving the parent even though I haven't found one. For one, the parent keeps a reference to the "one" element. Even then, I think it is too dangerous to make the hidden assumption that there are no complete cycles involving the parents. Somebody is bound to trip over this sooner or later.
comment:24 Changed 11 years ago by
We got this crash in the parent destructor, but look whats in the element destructor:
def __dealloc__(self): # TODO: Warn otherwise! # for some mysterious reason, various things may be NULL in some cases if self._parent is not <ParentWithBase>None and (<MPolynomialRing_libsingular>self._parent)._ring != NULL and self._poly != NULL: p_Delete(&self._poly, (<MPolynomialRing_libsingular>self._parent)._ring)

I had similar problems, but I thought I fixed them and it did pass tests on my machine. In my experience, they always go away if we leak the ring (which is essentially what we did before) instead of cleaning up after we are done with it. I have a suspicion that, although almost all take a ring as argument, some Singular functions require currRing
to be set. This is why I added the inlined _check_ring()
function to each MPolynomial_libsingular
method to make sure that we have the right currRing
.
I've added a superfluous p_Normalize
call to MPolynomial_libsingular.__dealloc__
, this is likely the point where you are crashing. You'll get a more useful backtrace if you paste the offending doctest into sage -gdb
and then use "bt".
Maybe somebody who is more familiar with the Singular api can chime in and explain precisely where you have to call rChangeCurrRing
and where you don't need to.

OK, I applied both the singular_rings and singular_polynomials patches to the 4.7.1.alpha2 that I have and built Sage as in comment:18 . As noted above this is not a pristine 4.7.1.alpha2, but has other python-2.7 related patches included; tickets #11377, #11244, #9958, #11376 and #10764. There are no segfaults. The testsuite looks like the results when the bug11339a.patch was applied. And I don't get the Killed doctest mentioned by François. Now with just the singular_rings patch I also get no segfaults or crashes. Should I get a crash? I can't see that any of the applied patches could affect things. I will build from scratch, just to make sure.

Since we can even add "-verbose" I should add this bit of output:
Trying: test_consistency(Integer(1)) # long time (80s on sage.math, 2011)###line 3337:_sage_ >>> test_consistency(1) # long time (80s on sage.math, 2011) Expecting: True Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007fffd79c2d47 in p_Copy (p=0x1, r=0x7ffff445fc38) at pInline2.h:441 441 pInline2.h: No such file or directory. in pInline2.h
So it looks like the segfault is after the test has completed, probably when sage is quitting as happened to Steve when he tried to run the test while disabling the garbage collection (before we had any patches what so ever).

I've just completed the testsuite after building vanilla sage-4.7.1.alpha2 from scratch. The patches from tickets #11377, #11244, #9958, #11376 and #10764 along with the patches of this ticket were used to create a patched sage-4.7.1.alpha2 spkg before the build. The results are identical to those reported earlier. There are no segfaults and no Killed/crashed tests.
On my sage-on-gentoo install on x86 in prefix there no segfaults; however, I have one Killed/crashed doctest which I didn't have when using the bug11339a patch.

Hi, first: thanks for cleaning up the mess that no-doubt I made.
I had similar problems, but I thought I fixed them and it did pass tests on my machine. In my experience, they always go away if we leak the ring (which is essentially what we did before) instead of cleaning up after we are done with it.
Ah, this might also explain #5949 then.
I have a suspicion that, although almost all take a ring as argument, some Singular functions require
currRing
to be set.
The API is as follows: pXXX
does assume the currRing
to be set, whereas p_XXX
does not. However, sometimes there are bugs, i.e. you call p_XXX
and it crashes unless currRing
is set.
This is why I added the inlined
_check_ring()
function to eachMPolynomial_libsingular
method to make sure that we have the rightcurrRing
.
TBH, I don't like this blanket approach, did you run into specific problems? If so, I'd add a check to those functions instead of hiding bugs by forcing the ring.

I guessed that much, but a documented list of exceptions to that rule might be nice :-)

In principle I agree, but its probably more productive to first produce a working version and then see if it still works if we remove the blanket rChangeCurrRing
. Right now I'm not sure if that is the underlying problem. I didn't find any 100% reliable testcase but in some cases adding the extra ring switch fixed segfaults, but only to reappear in other places.

The updated polynomials patch fixes another place where potentially the wrong singular ring was used, which would explain the data corruption. Please give it a try!
I'm pretty sure that p_Normalize
requires currRing
to be set. In the polynomials destructor, I have
### If you suspect that the poly data was corrupted, then this is a good way to trigger a segfault: rChangeCurrRing(self._parent_ring) p_Normalize(self._poly, self._parent_ring)
This is useful for debugging because p_Normalize
will touch all coefficients of the polynomial. The destructor is typically called long after the actual computations so it is very likely that the currRing
has changed by then. If I reverse the order of the two lines, then I get segfaults all over the Sage library. However, because it relies on the finalization order, they are usually in varying places and often disappear if you just paste the doctest into Sage.

My vanilla sage-4.7.1.alpha2 has no segfaults or Killed/crashed tests with the new patch. The patch seems to cure the doctest failure (option.pyx) I had on my sage-on-gentoo install on x86. However on amd64 (sage-on-gentoo) I have a Segmentation fault with the doctest
sage -t -long -force_lib devel/sage-main/sage/schemes/elliptic_curves/ell_curve_isogeny.py
I'll attach files of the Segmentation fault and debug/backtrace.

I built a sage spkg with Singular's polynomials debugging turned on (PDEBUG=2
) and now Singular spits out tons of memory allocation errors during Sage startup (turns out Sage does some high-degree polynomial computations during startup). Can somebody who understands Singular better comment on whether those are real errors?
http://www.stp.dias.ie/~vbraun/Sage/spkg/singularDEBUG-3-1-1-4.p9.spkg
Note that its not as easy as turning on SAGE_DEBUG
; the Singular spkg-install does set a configure option in that case but its not doing anything. I also had to fix up an instance where an #ifdef PDEBUG
replaced a libSingular function by a macro.

The omalloc error gets triggered by fraction field conversions. If you take out some stuff from ell_curve_isogeny.py then you can start up Sage just fine. I'll attach a patch for debugging purposes.
The omalloc errors appear with or without my patches on this ticket, by the way.
comment:42 Changed 11 years ago by
Just for the record while I am working on stuff. It seems there are no problems on amd64 all the problems seem to arise on the x86 side. So I upgraded to 4.7.1.alpha3 and ran the long tests on my 2003 x86 box. 16 hours later I have three doctests crashes that may be related (currently setting proper debugging on that box) and i seem to have lost the test.log :P - just great. Anyway I'll have a look at the extra debugging in libsingular. If there is a problem with omalloc could we switch to the system malloc? I think there is an option for that (whether it is working or not is another matter).

One was: sage/modular/modform/element.py, now that I have started to include debugging info it seems to behave, may be it was the load.

OK back to singular problems. On my OS X (10.5.8 32bits) box I got another test crash:

and the following backtrace

This is with 4.7.1.alpha4. I'll try again on the linux x86 box this weekend (and not lose the logs this time). It may be the last test I run on that box for a while.

Something is wrong with atlas-3.9.x and linbox.
I built libSingular with debugging turned on, but that shows lots and lots of errors. I'm not sure if all of them are actual bugs, but I think its likely that they are the origin of the segfaults. See https://groups.google.com/d/msg/libsingular-devel/cfzQEgjxB8o/dvb2Efc-7pIJ

I know about that. I have known about a similar problem with iml for longer https://github.com/cschwan/sage-on-gentoo/issues/3. Both iml and linbox fail after calling a routine called (or including the words) ChineseRemainder? which uses results from calls to cblas_dgemv and cblas_dgemm but this comment really belongs to #10508.

The line number is weird, otherwise doesn't Jeroen merge script add stuff to make sure there is proper metadata in the patch?
Note also that we are playing a "wack a mole" game here. You fix things in one place and suddenly you get a new failure in another. So refreshing Volker's patch is just the beginning....

With the singular SPKG and the patches (both of them) from #10903 I get no segfaults for the long tests on both x86 and amd64. However, there is one test on x86 that usually takes a very long time that now fails. It may be singular-related.

It looks singular related but it doesn't immediately ring a bell. I'd guess some strategically placed rChangeCurrRing
would fix the issue, but the problem is to find where to put it.

- Description modified (diff)
- Status changed from needs_work to needs_review
- Summary changed from Illegal use of __deallocate__ in cython (pyx) code to Refcounting for Cython rings
I am setting this bug to Needs Review. The two patches here will correctly refcount the Singular rings, and the reviewer should focus on that aspect. They also make Sage crash because of issues in the libSingular interface. The latter will be dealt with in #10903. Please report any crashes in Sage on #10903, and not here.

I read the patch and we're reasonably certain we caught all bugs these patches uncovered (not introduced!), so: positive review.

This seems to conflict with #11856.

You should run the tests with your patches applied on top of sage-4.7.2.alpha3. At least with the alpha3-prerelease, I get some doctest errors, for example sage -t "devel/sage-main/sage/misc/sageinspect.py"
.
So, it seems it would have been better to change this patch, not #11856 and #11068. Too bad.

The doctest failure in sage/misc/sageinspect (would have been nice if it would have used its own module as a doctest example btw) is fixed in #10903. There are no doctest failures if you use sage-4.7.2.alpha3 + #11339 + #10903. Really the two tickets should be one but thats not how it panned out historically.

So we have a cyclic dependency now...
Somehow matches the ticket's title.

Question to the release manager: How are the odds that both #11339/#10903 and #11856 (which both fix critical bugs) will be merged into sage-4.7.2?
If #11339/#10903 are ready to be merged then I guess one can easily modify #11856 so that it matches (it is just a different line break in one hunk). And #11068 was shifted to sage-4.7.3 anyway, so, it can wait.

The point was to have a cdef class, but sageinspect is pure Python, so it wouldn't have been a good example.

Jeroen said that Singular will go into sage-4.7.2 on sage-release. This should be #11339 + #10903 + #11856, preferably in that order.
Exactly. Just make sure you clearly state the order in which patches have to be applied. The "cyclic" dependency is not really a problem as these tickets will be merged together anyway.

I'll implement merging strongly connected components... ;-)

The documentation is fairly clear, you are only allowed to touch C data structures in
__dealloc__
: http://docs.cython.org/src/userguide/special_methods.html#finalization-method-deallocReally, this shows the difference between the C++ and the Python object model. In Python, executing constructors/destructors in derived classes is optional and leaves a lot of freedom to the programmer. Because of the garbage collection you can allocate resources wherever you want. By comparison, C++ is very strict and essentially forces you to use RAII. This is why there is no try/finally in C++. Which is why there is necessarily some tension in Cython between C++ and Python object instantiation/finalization.
Having said that, it seems like the cleanest solution would be if Cython would also call the Python destructor
__del__
according to the normal Python rules (why__clear__
?). Then the Python and C++ object model could just peacefully coexist. The lifetime of a cdef class would be
