libidn-1.25: runaway validation test tst_pr29 on some systems

Nelson H. F. Beebe — 2012-05-24T23:45:49

I've successfully built, validated, and installed libidn-1.25 on
most of the 25+ flavors of Unix in our test lab.

However, on these five

Apple PowerMac G4 (2 500 MHz PowerPC 7400 CPUs, 256MB RAM);
GNU/Linux 2.6.34-gentoo-r1 (Gentoo Base System version 1.12.13)

Apple PowerMac G5 (4 2500 MHz PPC970MP CPUs, 8GB RAM);
GNU/Linux 2.6.31-gentoo-r6 (Gentoo Base System release 1.12.13)

DEC Alpha 4100-5/466 (4 21164 EV5 CPUs, 466 MHz, 2GB RAM);
GNU/Linux 2.6.34-gentoo-r1 (Gentoo Base System release 1.12.13)

SGI Origin/200-4 (180 MHz) (4 R10000 CPUs);
IRIX 6.5

Sun Blade 1500 (1062 MHz TI UltraSparc IIIi (Jalapeno), 1GB RAM);
GNU/Linux 2.6.31-gentoo-r7 (Gentoo 2.0.3)

the tests proceed successfully for a while, but then go into an
infinite loop:

...
PASS: tst_idna2
PASS: tst_idna3
PASS: tst_idna4
PASS: tst_nfkc
... no further output ...

The output stops at the same line on each of the five systems.

If I run the top utility, I get something like this on each
system:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT

libidn-1.25: Fedora release 15 (Lovelock) x86_64 failure, andworkaround

Nelson H. F. Beebe — 2012-05-24T23:56:10

When I built libidn-1.25 on Fedora release 15 (Lovelock) x86_64 with

%  set  path=( /bin /usr/bin )
%  gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.6.3 20120306 (Red Hat 4.6.3-2)

fix build of libidn with autoamke 1.12

Undefined _GL_ATTRIBUTE_CONST and _GL_ATTRIBUTE_PURE when compilinglibidn with MSVC

Bartosz Brachaczek — 2012-04-07T00:23:53

Hello,

I compile libidn with MSVC 2010. With unmodified 1.24 sources I get
errors about undefined _GL_ATTRIBUTE_CONST and _GL_ATTRIBUTE_PURE. I
think the solution is to put dummy #define's for these two into
win32/include/config.h - it works for me.

Check failed for libidn-1.24 with glibc 2.14.1

Libidn 1.24 released

Simon Josefsson — 2012-01-10T20:41:52

GNU Libidn is a fully documented implementation of the Stringprep,
Punycode and IDNA specifications.  Libidn's purpose is to encode and
decode internationalized domain name strings.  There are native C, C#
and Java libraries.

Noteworthy changes since the last release (from NEWS file):

* Version 1.24 (released 2012-01-10) [stable]

** Libraries are re-licensed from LGPLv2+ to dual-GPLv2+|LGPLv3+.

** build: Fix parallel Windows builds.
Reported by René Berber <r.berber< at >computer.org>.

** libidn: Fix potential infloop in pr29 code.
Reported by Jon Nelson <jnelson< at >jamponi.net> in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-libidn/2012-01/msg00008.html>.

** libidn: Add 'const' keyword to 'stringprep_ucs4_nfkc_normalize' function.

** Sync glib NFKC code and improve copyright/license statements.

** Update gnulib files and translations.

** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.

The C library contains a generic Stringprep implementation.  Profiles
for Nameprep, iSCSI, SASL, XMPP and Kerbe

libidn-1.24 validation test problem

Nelson H. F. Beebe — 2012-01-10T18:33:50

Yesterday afternoon, I started builds of libidn-1.24 in our test lab
(about 25 flavors of Unix), and this morning, had a look at them.  The
Mac OS X and Solaris builds all succeeded and passed their validation
tests.

However, the SGI IRIX and all GNU/Linux (Alpha, PPC-32, PPC-64, SPARC,
x86, x86_64) and {Free,Net,Open}BSD builds are hung at this point in
the validation tests:

...
PASS: tst_nfkc

On one x86 system, there is more info:

PASS: tst_nfkc
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10

A check with the top utility show that they have 99% CPU utilization.
I have therefore installed the successes, and killed all of the
still-running build

infinite loop bug in libidn (pr29_4)

Jon Nelson — 2012-01-05T23:30:15

On or around line 1260 of lib/pr29.c, in the pr29_4 function.

  for (i = 0; i < len; i++)
    if ((row = first_column (in[i])) > 0)
      for (j = i + 1; j < len; j++)
    if (combinationclass (in[j]))
      for (k = j + 1; k < len; j++)
        if (in_last_column_row (in[k], row))
          return PR29_PROBLEM;

The infinite loop occurs when the character is present in
combinationclass but the following character is *not* in
in_last_column_row.
I believe the "k" loop should be incrementing *k* not *j*.

Failed test on upcoming 1.24 on Solaris 9 Sparc

Hi Simon,

I have a failed test on Solaris 9 Sparc with Sun Studio 12 for the upcoming libidn 1.24:

libidn-1.24 build feedback

Nelson H. F. Beebe — 2012-01-04T01:24:15

I installed libidn-1.24 on about two dozen flavors of Unix in our test
lab here today.  Most were successful, but there were a few minor test
failures:

GNU/Linux on IA-63, PPC-64, PPC-32, Alpha, SPARC, and Ubuntu x86 (but
not Red Hat or Fedora x86):

IDNA3[0] failed
IDNA3[1] failed

NetBSD 5.0.2 x86:
FAIL: stringprep_locale_to_utf8("foo") == (null)
FAIL: stringprep_utf8_to_locale("foo") == (null)

OpenBSD 4.7 x86:
same two failures as above
