Message273717
Using a random testing system to compare Python long behavior to GMP (via gmpy2), I notice that in a low-memory situation (created by allocating many large integers in both Python and GMP), a left-shift of 0 by large number of bytes:
- returns 0 via gmpy2
- causes a memory error in Python, e.g.:
...
val4 = val3 << val4
val3: 0 (GMP) 0 (Python)
val4: 1459166279268040830 (GMP) 1459166279268040830 (Python)
[operation successful via GMP]
Python(4463,0x7fff7152c300) malloc: *** mach_vm_map(size=194555503902408704) failed (error code=3)
*** error: can't allocate region
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
Auto-generated test is attached, though probably not needed to understand the issue. File is not minimized, since I suspect most of the code is just to choke memory, and you probably need the right memory config to replay, but it shows the basic idea.
