Marcus, Rik, and Hg200, thanks for fixing this problem.

I made a few changes to wording and pushed Markus' comment here https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/1e6389ae4060.

Yes, I agree we need some explanation of the intent.


std::vector<T> [N]


is also confusing.  I needed more time than I would like to admit to understand why both of the following worked without any other changes:


std::vector<T> foo [N];
std::vector<T> *foo = new std::vector<T> [N];


It's obvious now, but an array of std::vector<T> objects is not something I expect to see.

The attached patch adds a comment to motivate why that particular type is used.
It is very wordy. Maybe someone with better English skills could improve on that.

I think a comment above the declaration is probably required, just so it doesn't get undone at a later point in time.  It isn't at all clear to me what "std::vector<std::vector<RowVector>>" is and why it would be required.

Thanks for finding a fix for this problem.

I pushed an additional change to use "std::vector<std::vector<T>> (SIZE)" instead of "new std::vector<T> [SIZE]" so that the object will be cleaned when it goes out of scope even if that happens because an exception occurs.  In Octave, we generally want to limit use of new to constructors and delete to destructors.

Also, std::vector<std::vector<RowVector>> is a bit of a strange data structure, so maybe there is a better way to express what we are trying to do in that function?  But, for now, I left it as is since it seems to work.

Thank you all, now it worked!
Sorry for the trouble :-)

The error "Network is unreachable" is usually a temporary issue caused by too many requests.  It usually clears up in 10-15 minutes.  You might just try hg pull again.

Hi Marcel,

i have taken the changes displayed here

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/088d5e7a2b7e

and edited them with a simple editor (e.g. gedit) into grahpics.cc (red lines = remove, green lines = add) and then simply type "make" to do an incremental build (compile only changed files).

Loading big stl files takes long time but displays correctly and does not segfault any more at my side.

I'm not the original reporter, but I can verify that this now works for me.

In the original implementation, the variable vec_vn is a local variable in a function, which means the memory for it comes from the stack.  I used gdb and the sizeof() operator to find that the size of the variable was 9.6 MB.  In the shell, I checked with "limit" and the stacksize was 8.192 MB.  Just to verify, I changed the stacksize in the shell to 10 MB and then the code in test_patch_v2.m passes.  Clearly, this is the root problem and I agree with Markus' fix to shift this variable on to the heap.

Markus,

ahhh - your suggestion is what i had in my mind for some time but i didn't try. Yes that solves the problem!

However before we congratulate ourselves i suppose we should wait what Marcel will respond ;-)

Thanks and best regards

The size of a std::vector is implementation dependent. But most commonly, it is 24 bytes on 64bit systems. I.e. that call tries to allocate more than 10 GiB of memory. That might be the cause of the segfault.
Maybe we should disable lighting (at least "gouraud") if patches reach a critical number of vertices?
How high should that threshold be?

Here is my backtrace output. Some informations in advance:

RAM is 4GB total

Looks not suspicious (?) because is consistent with the call to patch (i am calling with 3 x 157043 = 471129 points). Hint: I am using different stl data (much smaller) than marcel.

My machine has 16GB RAM.

Hope this helps.

I guess it's time to try poking around with the debugger.

The line that provokes the segfault is


std::vector<RowVector> vec_vn [num_v];  // list of normals for vertices


Try running Octave under the debugger as before, when it segfaults, instead of executing 'bt', try


p num_v


Let's see if this value is negative, 0, or excessively large.

Second question, how much memory does your machine have?

Third question, did you compile Octave with --disable-64 to have a 32-bit octave_idx_type?

I guess: Two independent problems.

I have merged Rik's patch to a somewhat older stable version i had on hand. The problem forced in test_patch.m seems to be solved. I can not create the segfault with Rik's patch applied.

But i also still get a segfault when loading big stl data. LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 does not show any difference.

I am coming back as soon as a new build with -g has been finished.

Does it crash if you start octave as :



LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 octave -f -q


?

That's odd.  I think you will need to run octave under a debugger and obtain a backtrace to find out where the segfault is coming from.

These instructions assume a tcsh shell, but you can translate them pretty easily to another syntax if you use a Bourne shell derivative.


setenv CFLAGS "-g -O0 -pipe"
setenv CXXFLAGS "${CFLAGS}"
setenv FFLAGS "${CFLAGS}"
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-docs
make
run-octave -f


In another shell, find the process ID of the running Octave.


ps auxww | grep octave
sudo gdb -p XXXX  # substitute process ID for XXX
c<RETURN>


Back in Octave, run the script that causes the problem.  When it segfaults, go te the window with gdb and execute


bt<RETURN>


Post the backtrace to this bug report.  Probably only need the first 10 or so lines.

That explains it.  The hg id of your build is for cset 27771.  You need to be at cset 27773 in order to see the fix.   Try


hg pull; hg update; hg summary


which should show at least the following

I downloaded and build octave from the Mercurial repo, and it shows as version 6.0.

The problem unfortunately is still there.

Marcel Hell <marcel756>
Wed 04 Dec 2019 08:05:01 PM UTC, comment #7: 

Fixed on the stable branch in this changeset: https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/2d1af61d8f5e.

In order to see the fix you would need to download the code from the Mercurial repository and build from source.  Alternatively, the next release of Octave, version 6.1, will probably be release in late December, early January.

Marking as fixed and closing report.

Confirmed.  I just tested the MWE on the development tip with a debug version of Octave and obtained the following backtrace.

The code in question in graphics.cc is


while (! octave::math::isnan (f(i,nc)) && nc < max_nc)
  nc++;


It sure looks like the test for "nc < max_nc" should appear before nc gets used to index the faces "f(i,nc)".

Testing that now.

I was able to reproduce and to simplify. MWE is attached.

Sometimes the MWE crashes on my laptop. Sometimes not. MWE does not need any stl file because its generating some random tube patch data itself.

What i have observed:

  • Big patch data necessary
  • Gouraud shading


If debug then exits with 11 at light.m line 115 when gouraud is set


 set (hlist(! is_mesh), "facelighting", mode, "edgelighting", "none");

Hello, I am trying to display a 24 MB stl file using stlread and then patch()

[c,q,v]=stlread('upper.stl');
patch('Faces',q,'Vertices', c);

Then octave get closed with signal 11, without any additional error messages.

Smaller binary stl files do work without any problem.
