Segfault when executing pmd benchmark (dacapo-2006-10-MR2 version)

[Karim Hamdan]

Hi there,

I was trying to execute the play-out agent (version 2.0.0.0) against the pmd benchmark from DaCapo 2006-10-MR2 using the following command

% java -javaagent:poa.jar -jar dacapo-2006-10-MR2.jar pmd

and I got the following output

I also tried using the option "-s small", and I got the same error. I searched the group for similar problems and ran into the previous post where they were running the fop benchmark and got a segfault. I tried Pascal's suggestion of removing the "de.bodden.tamiflex.playout.transformation.method.MethodGetNameTransformation". Unfortunately, I got the same error. I attached the error report file hoping that it would help figure out what's going on.

Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure if there is a difference regarding pmd between the
"2006-10-MR2" and "9.12-bach" release, but with the "9.12-bach" release
everything is fine here. But I'm using OpenJDK:

% java -version
java version "1.6.0_24"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11) (ArchLinux-6.b24_1.11-1-i686)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

So, maybe it is a jvm related problem.

Karim, could you try a current build from source?

We recently fixed a bug that could cause segmentation faults in some situations.

Thanks a lot Pascal for your reply. I think that might be right since I tried executing it on another machine (which happened to have oracle's jvm too) and got a segmentation fault as well. The output was quite different though as it was just one line with "segmentation fault: 11".

Eric, sure. I just cloned the mercurial repo. Are there any install/configure scripts? How can I proceed with installation from source? I looked for any installation from source instructions but I couldn't find any.

I just found out there are ant scripts for each project in tamiflex. After building it from source, I executed it against pmd and it did work. It seems that the lates version (from source) indeed fixed that segfault error.

Thanks a lot Eric and Pascal.

Excellent, thanks for letting us know! I should update the
documentation on building tamiflex from source...
