Beta release of 4.5.0
Dear all, I have just pushed a first beta release of 4.5.0. The package is available here: http://www.dynare.org/beta-release Things that remain to be done: + Update the NEWS file (I am almost done with the first draft, I should push it on Monday). + Update the reference manual. + Open a new page for the bugs in 4.5.x. + Update the microsoft code signature. + Check that the binaries are not detected as virus by the most common anti-virus (we had this issue with release of 4.4.0). + Fix the Octave bugs (those which can be fixed quickly). I want to relase 4.5.0 for the summer school (12th of June). So it is likely that important bugs, related to block/bytecode, will remain in this release (Ferhat is already working on this). I think we will have to release 4.5.1 before the Summer holidays (end of July for me). For the 4.5.x bug page (and also the New features page, 4.6-unstable) I propose to do it on Github (Wiki) instead of DynareWiki, the Markdown syntax (Github) is more elegant than moinmoin, and also this would greatly reduce the cost of updating the NEWS file.

Thanks Stéphane. This is great. All the best, Michel Stéphane Adjemian writes:

Hi Johannes, I do not receive integration tests reports for Octave since ages... I don't know why. Before the disappearance of the reports we had some failing tests, it would be nice to fix them. The difficulty with the Octave testsuite is that it often never ends. Some mod files, not always the same, run forever. I am convinced that this is not a bug in these files but rather a consequence of the memory leaks Ferhat has to fix in bytecode. @all We have now three pages on Dynare's Github/wiki: - KnownBugs, for the non fixed bugs in the current stable. - FixedBugs, for the fixed bugs, to be published in the next release of the stable or the next major release, - NewFeatures, for documenting the new features to be published in the the next major release. The corresponding pages on Dynare's MoinMoin wiki are frozen. In the FixedBug page, which I copy/paste from the updated NEWS file, I lost the external links to the Github issues (which are still available in the MoinMoin wiki). This is annoying and has to be fixed, but will take some time... Which I don't have right now. You can clone the wiki pages locally: git clone git@github.com:DynareTeam/dynare.wiki.git modify the markdown files and push the patches on Github. There is a package called Gollum: https://github.com/gollum/gollum that will ease the development of the wiki pages, by allowing you to look at the results of your patches locally before committing and pushing on Gthub.

Thanks a lot. I cannot replicate the third crash on Windows. On Linux, I get *** Error in `/usr/local/bin/octave-cli-4.2.1': double free or corruption (!prev): 0x000000000 26faad0 *** panic: Aborted -- stopping myself... attempting to save variables to 'octave-workspace'... save to 'octave-workspace' complete Aborted The first one seems to be a bug in Octave. I filed a bug report at ht tps://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?51198
Thanks. I have added some technical information and a tentative patch to the bug tracker.
So I think we're done with the crash in estimation/fs2000_calibrated_covariance.mod.
Let's now investigate the crash in kalman_filter_smoother/compare_results_simulation/fs2000_ML.mod.

Dear all,

I do not receive integration tests reports for Octave since ages... I don't know why. Before the disappearance of the reports we had some failing tests, it would be nice to fix them. The difficulty with the Octave testsuite is that it often never ends. Some mod files, not always the same, run forever. I am convinced that this is not a bug in these files but rather a consequence of the memory leaks Ferhat has to fix in bytecode. I have run the testsuite for Octave. The environment is Debian unstable, with Octave 4.2.1 from Debian experimental, and a few Octave forge packages recompiled by hand. The commit tested is d608588ef2 on the 4.5 branch.
Basically there are only 3 test failures :
estimation/fs2000_calibrated_covariance.mod estimation/fs2000_model_comparison.mod kalman_filter_smoother/compare_results_simulation/fs2000_ML.mod
The first and the third ones are crashes in Octave. I am going to investigate them. The second failure is simply the consequence of the first failure (the second test needs the output of the first one).

Octave 4.2 on sedna was compiled by Stephane, though not necessarily correctly, because there is no Octave 4.2 backport to Jessie. We know this because, since 857fc3c4f4e3c1bc820b46ffbd0c3303abc1d143 (I think, though would need to check again), dynare fails to compile mex files against it while they compile correctly against Octave 4.2 on macOS.

Thus, the crash happens during or immediately after computing the Hessian. My hunch is that the Hessian again returns something complex with a NaN in it and we get the same crash as in the other mod-file when the inverse Hessian is supposed to be computed.

I confirm that Dynare 4.5 does not compile on Debian Jessie, and that there are error messages in bytecode. But my understanding is that these messages are not related to the version of Octave, but rather to the version of g++, more precisely to the various flavours of C++ standards and their GNU interpretation (since the flag -std=gnu++11 is used at compile time).

I have recompiled Octave 4.2.1 and Dynare 4.5 on Debian Jessie (working around the bytecode issue), in order to mimic the environment of jessie, and I still don't get the crash. I don't understand how I got it in the first place. It does not look like a problem with consistently uninitialized memory space, because a check with valgrind could not unveil anything. So I'm giving up on this issue for now. Le jeudi 08 juin 2017 à 14:34 +0200, Johannes Pfeifer a écrit :

I do not receive integration tests reports for Octave since ages... I don't know why. Before the disappearance of the reports we had some failing tests, it would be nice to fix them. The difficulty with the Octave testsuite is that it often never ends. Some mod files, not always the same, run forever. I am convinced that this is not a bug in these files but rather a consequence of the memory leaks Ferhat has to fix in bytecode. I have run the testsuite for Octave. The environment is Debian unstable, with Octave 4.2.1 from Debian experimental, and a few Octave forge packages recompiled by hand. The commit tested is d608588ef2 on the 4.5 branch.
Basically there are only 3 test failures :
estimation/fs2000_calibrated_covariance.mod estimation/fs2000_model_comparison.mod kalman_filter_smoother/compare_results_simulation/fs2000_ML.mod
The first and the third ones are crashes in Octave. I am going to investigate them. The second failure is simply the consequence of the first failure (the second test needs the output of the first one).

Did you run the entire testsuite or just the single .mod file? Was your workaround for byte code something like the following in /mex/sources/bytecode/ErrorHandling.hh +#ifdef __GNUC__ +# ifndef isnan +# define isnan(x) __builtin_isnan(x) +# endif +# ifndef isinf +# define isinf(x) __builtin_isinf(x) +# endif +#endif Best, Houtan

It does not look like a problem with consistently uninitialized memory space, because a check with valgrind could not unveil anything.
So I'm giving up on this issue for now.

Thus, the crash happens during or immediately after computing the Hessian. My hunch is that the Hessian again returns something complex with a NaN in it and we get the same crash as in the other mod-file when the inverse Hessian is supposed to be computed.

Do you have a way to consistently trigger it?

On Debian Jessie I only ran the specific mod file.

Well, my workaround was more brutal :) I removed bytecode from the Makefiles , since it is not needed by the .mod file I'm interested in. But indeed I guess the solution is to add or remove similar defines, or to add the std:: prefix.

If this problem does not appear in Windows, we will fix it later. On sedna I install a chroot for stretch where I added the experimental repo and installed octave 4.2.1. In this environment dynare/octave compiles without issues, and we can run the testsuite. Sébastien is right, the issue is related to the C++ standard flavour, but I didn't have time to figure out which options should be passed to the configure script to have it right. I will give permissions to houtan and johannes to the stretch chroot, but I cannot do it now. Best, Stéphane. 2017-06-08 15:38 GMT+02:00 Sébastien Villemot < sebastien.villemot@sciencespo.fr>:
