/*
|
||||
* repro_issue471.c - Reproduce-first case for OPEN bug #471.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Issue: #471 - "GLR ambiguity-merge is O(n^2) for deeply-nested ambiguous
|
||||
* grammars (e.g. Perl), even with the recursion-depth cap"
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Pathological construct:
|
||||
* A deeply-nested Perl function call chain of the form:
|
||||
* f(f(f(f(... f(1) ...))))
|
||||
* where `f` is called with paren-optional syntax, causing the Perl grammar to
|
||||
* produce `ambiguous_function_call_expression` nodes at every nesting level.
|
||||
* This is the exact shape named by the original reporter (halindrome) and
|
||||
* confirmed in the maintainer comment on #471.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Why O(n^2):
|
||||
* tree-sitter's GLR merge path in `stack_node_add_link`
|
||||
* (internal/cbm/vendored/ts_runtime/src/stack.c, function starting at line 200)
|
||||
* is called recursively when two candidate parse-stack heads share compatible
|
||||
* predecessor nodes (same TSStateId, same byte position, same error_cost).
|
||||
* For an N-deep ambiguous call chain, the merge loop at the outermost level
|
||||
* iterates over N-1 existing links while each inner recursive call adds another
|
||||
* sweep over the growing link list. The result is O(N^2) total
|
||||
* stack_node_add_link invocations.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The `CBM_TS_STACK_MERGE_MAX_DEPTH` cap added in #461 bounds call-stack
|
||||
* RECURSION DEPTH (preventing SIGSEGV) but does NOT cap the total number of
|
||||
* iterations across all recursive calls. Hence: no crash, but superlinear
|
||||
* parse time that grows without bound as N increases.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Evidence from issue #471 (post-cap measurements):
|
||||
* N=2000 -> completes in < 1 s (sub-quadratic or near-linear at small N)
|
||||
* N=30000 -> takes > 5 minutes (clearly superlinear; effectively a hang)
|
||||
* We choose N=5000 as the reproduction depth:
|
||||
* - O(N^2) at N=5000 is ~6x more work than at N=2000, which already
|
||||
* finishes in <1 s, putting the blowup firmly inside the alarm window.
|
||||
* - A correct O(N) or O(N log N) implementation finishes at N=5000
|
||||
* in well under 1 s, so the 15-second bound is a very generous pass
|
||||
* threshold for a fixed implementation.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Expected (correct) behaviour after fix:
|
||||
* Parsing the N=5000 deeply-nested Perl file completes within 15 seconds,
|
||||
* i.e. the forked child exits normally (WIFEXITED, not WIFSIGNALED).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Actual (buggy) behaviour on current code:
|
||||
* The GLR merge work grows superlinearly; the child exceeds the 15-second
|
||||
* wall-clock budget and is killed by SIGALRM. The parent's waitpid() sees
|
||||
* WIFSIGNALED(status) && WTERMSIG(status) == SIGALRM, so
|
||||
* ASSERT_FALSE(WIFSIGNALED(status)) fires RED.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Timing-based flakiness note:
|
||||
* Any timing reproduction carries inherent flakiness on loaded machines.
|
||||
* Mitigations applied:
|
||||
* 1. The alarm bound (15 s) is ~15x the expected buggy blowup threshold
|
||||
* and far above the expected pass time (<1 s) for a fixed impl.
|
||||
* 2. N=5000 was chosen to sit in the steeply-growing O(n^2) regime
|
||||
* (not the knee) so the gap between pass and fail is large.
|
||||
* 3. The fork/alarm pattern isolates wall-clock from test-runner load.
|
||||
* On a very heavily loaded machine a false PASS is more likely than a
|
||||
* false FAIL (the OS may slow a fixed impl to near the bound), but a
|
||||
* false FAIL for a correct O(n) impl at this bound is implausible.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Fix location (not implemented here):
|
||||
* internal/cbm/vendored/ts_runtime/src/stack.c, `stack_node_add_link`:
|
||||
* bound the total merge work (an overall ambiguity-merge iteration budget
|
||||
* or memoization of already-merged node pairs) consistent with the existing
|
||||
* MAX_LINK_COUNT bail-out at line 249, so parse time stays near-linear for
|
||||
* adversarially ambiguous input.
