Hi Timothy,

Disarchive 0.2.0 occasionally fails two tests:

  FAIL: tests/kinds/octal.scm - [prop] Writing is reversible
  FAIL: tests/kinds/octal.scm - [prop] Serializing is reversible

(Thanks, Quickcheck! :-))

I added ‘pk’ calls like so:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(test-assert "[prop] Writing is reversible"
  (quickcheck
   (property ((octal $octal))
     (test-when (valid-octal? octal)
       (begin
         (equal? (pk 'oct octal) (pk 'decode (decode-octal (encode-octal octal)))))))))

(test-assert "[prop] Serializing is reversible"
  (quickcheck
   (property ((octal $octal))
     (test-when (valid-octal? octal)
       (equal? (pk 'OCT octal) (pk 'DECODE (serdeser -octal- octal)))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and got this output:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;;; (oct #<<unstructured-octal> value: 0 source: #<<zero-string> value: "\U0f94a4\u0912\U025627\U10e96a\u9576\u2077\u048f\U0f2f60\U0f744b" trailer: #vu8(172 156 23 48 25 29 159 226 210)>>)

I’m not sure where the exception comes from though.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

These two tests have a bit of a problem.  They occasionally fail by
“giving up”, which is when too many test cases are discarded rather than
used.  (This happens because you might write a generator for a superset
of the values you’re interested in, and then filter out some values with
“test-when”.)  I don’t think this is happening here, though.  You would
see something like “Gave up! Passed only 0 ests [sic].”

I can’t seem to reproduce this.  I’ve run the test suite many, many
times, but I also tried:

    ,use (disarchive kinds octal)
    ,use (disarchive kinds zero-string)
    ,use (disarchive serialization)
    (define the-zero-string
      (make-zero-string
       "\U0f94a4\u0912\U025627\U10e96a\u9576\u2077\u048f\U0f2f60\U0f744b"
       #vu8(172 156 23 48 25 29 159 226 210)))
    (define the-octal
      (make-unstructured-octal 0 the-zero-string))
    (equal? the-octal (decode-octal (encode-octal the-octal)))
    (equal? the-octal (serdeser -octal- the-octal))

Which works fine.  (Does it work for you?)

However, isn’t it possible that these values aren’t the culprits?  With
the “pk” calls you added, isn’t it printing the last OK value without
telling us the value causing the issue?

What if you run it with the following?

    (test-assert "[prop] Writing is reversible"
      (quickcheck
       (property ((octal $octal))
         (test-when (valid-octal? octal)
           (false-if-exception  ; <-- changed!
             (equal? octal (decode-octal (encode-octal octal))))))))

This way, Guile-QuickCheck should print the offending value and the seed
used for the tests, which could be helpful for reproducing.  (The fact
that it doesn’t handle exceptions well is a known bug!)

Hello!

Timothy Sample <samplet@ngyro.com> skribis:

I can reproduce it quickly with:

  while make check TESTS=tests/kinds/octal.scm -j5 ; do : ; done

… in C locale (LC_ALL & co. all unset).

> However, isn’t it possible that these values aren’t the culprits?  With

You’re right, the values printed are not the culprit.  The problem comes
from the generator (I had to raise the (quickcheck …) form out of
‘test-assert’ so I could get a backtrace):

Note that this is in C locale, which may mean that ‘regexp-exec’, which
passes strings to libc, gets offsets wrong somehow (see
‘fixup_multibyte_match’ in libguile), though I couldn’t reproduce it
with the string above.

Anyway, ‘guix build disarchive’ builds in en_US.utf8 locale, so the
thing above is probably a wrong lead.

If I switch to en_US.utf8, I occasionally get the following error
instead:

This is more in line with what you described.  Any ideas on how to
address that?

I’m still looking into this, but I wanted to quickly post this
reproducer for the Guile bug:

    (use-modules (ice-9 regex))
    (define str "\U101514\U103ab0\U0f6e6e\U02e278\U01d9eb\U10b996\U1089b5\uea15\U0fa074\U101e41\U02e330\u0177\u2492")
    (match:substring (string-match "[0-8]+" str))

This triggers the out-of-range error when run with “LC_ALL=C”.

It turns out that all that’s needed is the last code point, which is
“Number Eleven Full Stop”, or ‘⒒’.  When Guile converts this to an ASCII
C string using ‘u32_conv_from_encoding’, it becomes “11.”.  The regex
(“[0-8]+”) matches the “11” part with start index 0 and end index 2.
The ‘fixup_multibyte_match’ function does nothing (it only matters when
the locale encoding is multibyte) [1].  Guile then builds the match
vector with the original string but keeps the ASCII offsets.  In other
words, it thinks the match substring goes from 0 to 2 in a single code
point string:

    ,use (ice-9 regex)
    (string-match "11" "\u2492")
    => #("\u2492" (0 . 2))

I’m not sure there’s any way to solve this nicely in Guile.  It would be
clearer if the match vector included the string as libc matched it, but
it’s still surprising that the match happens with a different string.

In Disarchive, I can rewrite the generator without regex.  I’ll do that
and see what I can do about the “Gave up!” issue.

[1] It works on the converted-to-ASCII C string, which means that the
byte offsets and code point offsets are the same.  Hence, it has nothing
to do.

What happens with these?

    8570 _ⅺ_ "SMALL ROMAN NUMERAL ELEVEN"
    9322 _⑪_ "CIRCLED NUMBER ELEVEN"

   13155 _㍣_ "IDEOGRAPHIC TELEGRAPH SYMBOL FOR HOUR ELEVEN"
   13290 _㏪_ "IDEOGRAPHIC TELEGRAPH SYMBOL FOR DAY ELEVEN"

I would argue that none of these should be "decoded" into ascii polyglyphs
since they are atomic character glyphs. IMO It is over-eager transformation
to make them into ascii polyglyphs.

/Super/sub/-script placement metadata is another thing to consider --
"decode" to ascii art?? ;-)

Unicode characters representing mathematical values in
other languages are different. Those are subject to natural language
translation with locale-dependent semantics.

These might be candidates for that?:

Whaaat? “Number Eleven Full Stop”, I wonder how the Unicode folks came
up with that one.  ㊷ = ㉚ + ⒓

Yeah, I don’t think there’s much we can do.  It’s a lot of fun anyway.

Thanks for investigating!

Did you have a chance to look into it?

I’d like to make ‘guix’ and ‘guix-daemon’ depend on Disarchive, but not
before we can be sure its test suite passes.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I just pushed b9f0e78238e6186d28d738c7c5355a56557ce84f, which updates
Disarchive to 0.2.1, which has fixes for the test suite.  The giving up
problem has not been solved outright, but it should be practically
impossible to trigger.  (In fact, it probably *is* impossible to trigger
given how few PRNG states there are....)

Exciting!

Yay!  Thanks for the quick reply!

I’ll have ‘guix’ depend on Disarchive and report back.
