Description Rafael Fonseca 2016-08-10 14:37:36 UTC
Description of problem: when ruby is compiled under kernel >= 4.7, we get the following error

  1) Failure:
TestSocketNonblock#test_udp_recv_nonblock [/builddir/build/BUILD/ruby-2.3.1/test/socket/test_nonblock.rb:128]:
cygwin 1.5.19 has a problem to send an empty UDP packet. [ruby-dev:28915].
Exception raised:
<#<Timeout::Error: execution expired>>.

  2) Failure:
TestSocketNonblock#test_udp_recvfrom_nonblock [/builddir/build/BUILD/ruby-2.3.1/test/socket/test_nonblock.rb:106]:
cygwin 1.5.19 has a problem to send an empty UDP packet. [ruby-dev:28915].

ruby -v: ruby 2.3.1p112 (2016-04-26 revision 54768) [powerpc64le-linux]
uncommon.mk:612: recipe for target 'yes-test-almost' failed
make: *** [yes-test-almost] Error 2

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.3.1-57


How reproducible: always when kernel>=4.7 is used


Additional info: it happens in both ppc64 and ppc64le. Note that the current Fedora builders don't user kernel 4.7, so you can't reproduce it in koji but it can be reproduced in a mockbuild.

It seems to be issue on my x86_64 as well ...

Comment 2 Vít Ondruch 2016-08-16 07:12:55 UTC
Reassigning to Kernel, since this is Kernel regression IMO.

Comment 3 Vít Ondruch 2016-08-16 07:21:58 UTC
Just FTR, these are the lines where the tests fail:

https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/test/socket/test_nonblock.rb#L106
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/test/socket/test_nonblock.rb#L128

and yes, there used to be some issue with cygwin, which couldn't send empty UDP packet, but that doesn't be the case.

Comment 4 Vít Ondruch 2016-08-16 07:43:28 UTC
This can be used to disable the test cases in case this should become issue on builders:

I should probably mention the kernel version I am using:

$ uname -a
Linux unused-4-132.brq.redhat.com 4.7.0-2.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jul 27 13:39:50 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ rpm -q kernel
kernel-4.5.0-1.fc25.x86_64
kernel-4.6.0-1.fc25.x86_64
kernel-4.7.0-2.fc26.x86_64

Comment 6 Laura Abbott 2016-08-23 16:05:47 UTC
I'm seeing the same behavior and am doing a kernel bisect. The 4.7.2 update is going to be filed in bodhi for more system wide testing. We'll see what happens from there.

    Remove UDP transport headers before queueing packets for reception.
    This change simplifies a follow-up patch to add MSG_PEEK support.

This seems to be the bad commit. Going to follow up with networking folks.

Comment 8 Laura Abbott 2016-08-24 00:05:41 UTC
Networking maintainers gave a fix. I applied it to the appropriate branches so it should get picked up the next time we do a build. 4.7.2-100 and 4.7.2-200 do not have the fix though.

(In reply to Laura Abbott from comment #8)
Good news. Thank you Laura for analysis and pushing this forward.
