Subject: apt: Method rred has died unexpectedly!

Date: Tue, 03 Nov 2009 23:21:48 -0500

Package: apt
Version: 0.7.20.2+lenny1
Severity: normal


I am currently getting the following. My guess is a malformed pdiff
file. A couple of other people of #debian (oftc) have been seeing
similar errors. Possibly related to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=545694 but this is
supposedly fixed on 0.7.24 and one of my co-bug-reporters can
reproduce this on sid.

Note the same pdiff, 2009-11-04-0016.39.pdiff, occurs before each
error.

This is the first joint bug report I've filed, and I've been using
Debian and filing bug reports since 2001. :-)

                                                   Regards, Faheem.

Hello Faheem Mitha & all other co-bug-reporters :)

First of all: Thanks for the report!

I have currently no time to dig into it a bit deeper,
(hopefully i can do it tonight or tomorrow)
but my first guess is an overflow of an internal variable:
apt-get update -o Debug::pkgAcquire::RRed=1 -qq
results in 65,442 lines of output which is near the value
of a signed integer (65,535).

A patch of this size (~9 MB) is a bit uncommon as it
is bigger than the complete download of the new file.
It would be good if APT could detect it... we will see. :)

As a workaround you can disable pdiffs temporary with
apt-get update -o Acquire::Pdiffs=false

Thanks for your bugreport. 

I can reproduce the failure here and I'm looking into the problem
now. As a workaround you can run:

# apt-get update -o Acquire::PDiffs=false

Or by setting

Also worth noticing: work-around (although it doesn't cure the cause):

It turns out that the unusual size of the diff causes a the stack to
overflow, a different workaround is "ulimit -s 12288" (or something
like that). Clearly its still a bug in rred.cc.

Looks like the diff file is corrupt; applying it manually to the
Packages file using ed leaves an invalid Packages file.

Attached is a patch that should add detection for patches that are
bigger than the actual file to patch. Unfortuantely I can no longer
reproduce the failure. Testing/feedback is welcome.

I can't reproduce this any longer, but would it not be possible to create 
an 'artificial' apt repos to reproduce this behavior (before and after 
the patch) since it seems you know what causes it?

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

this is most certainly related to the way rred currently works, it uses
a tail recursion on the stack to reverse the diff elements. it would be
easy to change that to use an iteration instead, if you want that just
holler and i'll change rred.cc, but i think the real problem is that we
should never produce such a large diff anyway, downloading the original
file is probably faster! perhaps we just need a filter on the diff
generation side?

Really, i don't think it is a stackoverflow as it fails at a to prominent
cmd count... I have rewritten a few parts of rred to use long and more
sane return values and it patches the file now just fine. :)

While on it i have also integrated #463354 which will speed up the
patch-process a bit (but don't expect a miracle, the biggest timesucker
still is the decompression of the patches and applying them patch by
patch instead of concatenate the patches - but this has again a few
problems as this is far from a simple cat operation as you have to
recalculate line numbers)

> but i think the real problem is that we should never produce such

I will tell you a secret: For most users with fast connections pdiffs
are (always) slower. Pdiffs fight against download size and
decompression time of the Packages file, but if download time is
nearly zero for every download pdiff only competes with the compression
type: bz2 is slow, but pdiffs (if you need to apply more than one) are
most of the time slower (as you have a gzip decompression for
the patch and load and save of a uncompressed Packages file
for each patch). It is just that pdiffs are nicer for the mirrors,
everyone between the mirrors and your computer (e.g. ISP)
and the time of an "apt-get update" isn't a problem compared
to the rest of the upgrade progress for the casual user anyway -
and it is a great plus if you don't have a fast connection
(currently) or if you pay per traffic...

> perhaps we just need a filter on the diff generation side?
Michael has already a patch for apt to don't download the patch
if the patch is bigger than the actual file, so no need to implement
some logic in the generator as the file was itself correct, just to
big to be useful.

#463354 looks like it is also getting rid of the recursion, that is very

cool, but i thought there is already logic to do that in the generator,
plus changing the generator not to produce uselessly large files would
also autmagically fix the whole problems for systems with an older apt
that still contains the broken rred...

I would like to see a config option to limit the number of patch files
to download. As you said the loading/saving of the index files and
decompressing pdiff files uses up time. Even with a moderate download
speed anything over 4 to 8 pdiff files is slower than getting the full
file. But it depends on the download speed.

So maybe an option to limit the amount of pdiff files eigther strictly
to X pdiffs or to |pdiff size| * Y < |index size|.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello all,

yesterday and today the bug hits me. I'm running debian testing (with a few 
sid-packages and a few stables).  "apt-get update -o Acquire::Pdiffs=false" 
work-arrounded the problem.


Sincerly,
DaB.

Could you please be more specific which diffs failed so we can reproduce
it as for example on my systems i haven't any problems so far.
(Simple post the complete output of the "apt-get update" run if unsure)

The reported issue here with the too big pdiff file is fixed (by the ftpadmins)
long time ago. The current 0.7.25 includes the rred rewrite which should
even apply this big pdiff file correctly.

The bugreport(s) are currently still open just for two reasons:
a) Michaels patch for not downloading to big files was not applied (somehow).
b) Goswin von Brederlow feature request sounds reasonable.

Your problem could be reason c) but we would need more information.


Happy new year!

David Kalnischkies
