Which llvm version are you using?
It works for me with version 3.2 and 3.3.

3.3 (I'm  using an r600 so I had to upgrade from 3.2 to build mesa-9.2)
Comment 3 Roland Scheidegger 2013-08-02 16:33:32 UTC
Does this also happen on master?
If so do you have a cpu with sse2 but not sse3 by chance? I think there might potentially be a problem there with some tests because we set the FTZ but not the DAZ flag (though just about all cpus except some very early p4 support that flag even with only just sse2, but since trying to set it if it's not supported results in a crash we don't try).
Some of these tests use denorms as inputs and I wouldn't expect reference to really match generated code in this case (certainly those failing here all do use denorms otherwise the reference would make no sense). Though I am actually surprised to see reference giving values which look right for "ordinary" denormal handling (as FTZ would still be set) but it would depend entirely on what exactly the math library function does. In any case the failures should be pretty harmless, but I don't know what would be the best way to fix them (other than just to get rid of the denorm test cases).

Didn't seem to make any difference. Pasted the patch from the link (no html in it) and applied. Reran make, same results in the testsuite. Ran 'make distclean', reran configure, make, make check but still the same,

That's odd, daz test seemed to work here (though of course I had to hack around the ifdefs and conditions).
What does it print out if you set GALLIUM_DUMP_CPU=1 env var (with a debug build)?
Though I guess depending on math library it might in theory not work neither, I suspect there's no guarantee if you use non-standard flags that the result has to be correct according to these non-standard flags. Thinking about this I suspect it would actually never work on x86-32 (on all cpus) since the math library might not use sse at all hence be unaffected by this flag. It is really more of a test case problem though (but trying to set DAZ should still make sense).

How do I get output ? I've got the following in .xinitrc:
export GALLIUM_LOG_FILE=/home/ken/gallium.log
export GALLIUM_PRINT_OPTIONS=1
export GALLIUM_DUMP_CPU=1
(started with just DUMP_CPU and capturing stderr). I've tried running the xscreensaver-demo previews (i.e. fullscreen) for GLHanoi and GLPlanet, also ran glxinfo and glxgears - but gallium.log doesn't get created. This is for a build of master from 1st August plus your patch, with both CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS not set in the environment, so the standard
CFLAGS:          -g -O2 -Wall -std=c99 -Werror=implicit-function-declaration -Werror=missing-prototypes -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-builtin-memcmp
and CXXFLAGS:        -g -O2 -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-builtin-memcmp.

Just place it in the environment, i.e. GALLIUM_DUMP_CPU=1 ./lp_test_arit (or glxgears or whatever) should be enough.
Though actually since you're using x86_64 it should definitely set the has_daz flag in any case.

Yes as said this will only work with a debug build. --enable-debug should do it (though I only tried with scons).

Oh. I had assumed -g was a debug build.

Some debug features depend on explicitly defined DEBUG var.

No idea why this would crash.

Comment 15 James Cook 2013-11-07 04:03:03 UTC
I can reproduce the problem on my machine.

I'm using the tarball at ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/${version}/MesaLib-${version}.tar.bz2 , where version is 9.2.2, with some distribution-specific patches and configuration options (NixOS x-updates branch).  If you think these might be interfering, let me know and I'll see if I can build without the changes.


Here's my output for GALLIUM_DUMP_CPU=1 ./lp_test_arit (with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set for annoying reasons):

As for the patches, IMHO the only interferrable is the one adding --enable-shared-gallium, which was taken from Ubuntu (I think).

Hmm the util_cpu_caps are totally busted, I wonder what's up with that...

/proc/cpuinfo from james.cook@utoronto.ca

Whoops, I must have sent cpuinfo from the laptop I sent the e-mail from and then forgot about this thread.  I've attached /proc/cpuinfo from the computer I ran the test on.
Comment 19 James Cook 2013-12-10 09:45:51 UTC
Note, I might be running a different kernel version now compared to before; not sure whether that affects the contents of /proc/cpuinfo.

Comment 22 Nikoli 2014-08-17 17:09:57 UTC
In one of my systems mesa-10.2.4 fails this test too:
# cat ./work/Mesa-10.2.4-abi_x86_64.amd64/src/gallium/drivers/llvmpipe/lp_test_arit.log
floor(-0): ref = -1, out = 0, precision = -0.000000 bits, FAIL
ceil(0): ref = 1, out = 0, precision = -0.000000 bits, FAIL
fract(-0): ref = 0.99999994, out = -0, precision = -0.000000 bits, FAIL


I have hardened Gentoo Linux amd64 stable, llvm-3.4.2, kernel 3.14.4-hardened-r1, AMD A4-3300M APU
Comment 23 Paolo Pedroni 2014-09-23 08:56:09 UTC
Still failing in Mesa-10.3.0 + llvm-3.4 :-(
Comment 24 Paolo Pedroni 2014-09-23 10:23:35 UTC
... and llvm-3.5 didn't help either.

proposed fix

Could you try this fix? Note the error is actually with the _reference_, not the actual driver code (this is because we want no denormals and are switching them off in the driver), so llvm updates aren't going to do anything. I guess that not everyone gets exactly the same error is just due to what the math libraries / compilers are doing (they expect "ordinary" denormal handling, hence they are not required to honor our differently set cpu flags and the results are therefore kinda undefined).
In any case, this is really more of a cosmetic error.

It's straighfoward to repro the bug on any modern CPU with https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-software-development-emulator :

$ GALLIUM_DUMP_CPU=1 /var/lib/hudson/tools/lin64/sde/sde64  -p4p -- build/linux-x86_64-debug/gallium/drivers/llvmpipe/lp_test_arit
util_cpu_caps.nr_cpus = 8
util_cpu_caps.x86_cpu_type = 8
util_cpu_caps.cacheline = 64
util_cpu_caps.has_tsc = 1

util_cpu_caps.has_sse = 1

And I've verified that Roland's patch fixes it:

$ GALLIUM_DUMP_CPU=1 /var/lib/hudson/tools/lin64/sde/sde64  -p4p -- build/linux-x86_64-debug/gallium/drivers/llvmpipe/lp_test_arit
util_cpu_caps.nr_cpus = 8
util_cpu_caps.x86_cpu_type = 8
util_cpu_caps.cacheline = 64
util_cpu_caps.has_tsc = 1
util_cpu_caps.has_mmx = 1
util_cpu_caps.has_mmx2 = 1
util_cpu_caps.has_sse = 1
util_cpu_caps.has_sse2 = 1
util_cpu_caps.has_sse3 = 1
util_cpu_caps.has_ssse3 = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_sse4_1 = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_sse4_2 = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_avx = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_avx2 = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_f16c = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_popcnt = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_3dnow = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_3dnow_ext = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_xop = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_altivec = 0
util_cpu_caps.has_daz = 1
$

Roland, I just have a few suggestiongs for the patch:
- let's move the FTZ/DAZ code two an helpers 
- we should call the helper also on the results
- we should leave the sign bit alone, ie, `val.ui &= 0xff800000` -> `val.ui &= 0x7f800000`.

Ah I didn't think about using it for simulating environments with features you have but don't want just the other way around...

Makes sense I guess. Though I'd suspect since there's tolerance for the results it shouldn't matter.

> - we should leave the sign bit alone, ie, `val.ui &= 0xff800000` -> `val.ui

Hmm the code as is does leave the sign bit alone.

I'll send out a patch...

You're quite right! I was thinking backwards.

Thanks.
