  • Implementation

This PEP has been rejected by the Python Steering Council.

This PEP proposes that Python should treat machine stack overflow differently from runaway recursion.

This would allow programs to set the maximum recursion depth to fit their needsand provide additional safety guarantees.

If this PEP is accepted, then the following program will run safely to completion:

and the following program will raise a StackOverflow, without causing a VM crash:

CPython uses a single recursion depth counter to prevent both runaway recursion and C stack overflow.However, runaway recursion and machine stack overflow are two different things.Allowing machine stack overflow is a potential security vulnerability, but limiting recursion depth can prevent theuse of some algorithms in Python.

Currently, if a program needs to deeply recurse it must manage the maximum recursion depth allowed,hopefully managing to set it in the region between the minimum needed to run correctly and the maximum that is safeto avoid a memory protection error.

By separating the checks for C stack overflow from checks for recursion depth,pure Python programs can run safely, using whatever level of recursion they require.

CPython currently relies on a single limit to guard against potentially dangerous stack overflowin the virtual machine and to guard against run away recursion in the Python program.

This is a consequence of the implementation which couples the C and Python call stacks.By breaking this coupling, we can improve both the usability of CPython and its safety.

The recursion limit exists to protect against runaway recursion, the integrity of the virtual machine should not depend on it.Similarly, recursion should not be limited by implementation details.

Two new exception classes will be added, StackOverflow and RecursionOverflow, both of which will besub-classes of RecursionError

StackOverflow exception

A StackOverflow exception will be raised whenever the interpreter or builtin module codedetermines that the C stack is at or nearing a limit of safety.StackOverflow is a sub-class of RecursionError,so any code that handles RecursionError will handle StackOverflow

RecursionOverflow exception

A RecursionOverflow exception will be raised when a call to a Python functioncauses the recursion limit to be exceeded.This is a slight change from current behavior which raises a RecursionError.RecursionOverflow is a sub-class of RecursionError,so any code that handles RecursionError will continue to work as before.

Decoupling the Python stack from the C stack

In order to provide the above guarantees and ensure that any program that worked previouslycontinues to do so, the Python and C stack will need to be separated.That is, calls to Python functions from Python functions, should not consume space on the C stack.Calls to and from builtin functions will continue to consume space on the C stack.

The size of the C stack will be implementation defined, and may vary from machine to machine.It may even differ between threads. However, there is an expectation that any code that could runwith the recursion limit set to the previous default value, will continue to run.

Many operations in Python perform some sort of call at the C level.Most of these will continue to consume C stack, and will result in aStackOverflow exception if uncontrolled recursion occurs.

Other Implementations

Other implementations are required to fail safely regardless of what value the recursion limit is set to.

If the implementation couples the Python stack to the underlying VM or hardware stack,then it should raise a RecursionOverflow exception when the recursion limit is exceeded,but the underlying stack does not overflow.If the underlying stack overflows, or is near to overflow,then a StackOverflow exception should be raised.

C-API

A new function, Py_CheckStackDepth() will be added, and the behavior of Py_EnterRecursiveCall() will be modified slightly.

Py_CheckStackDepth()

int Py_CheckStackDepth(const char *where)will return 0 if there is no immediate danger of C stack overflow.It will return -1 and set an exception, if the C stack is near to overflowing.The where parameter is used in the exception message, in the same fashionas the where parameter of Py_EnterRecursiveCall().

Py_EnterRecursiveCall()

Py_EnterRecursiveCall() will be modified to call Py_CheckStackDepth() before performing its current function.

PyLeaveRecursiveCall()

Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() will remain unchanged.

This feature is fully backwards compatibile at the Python level.Some low-level tools, such as machine-code debuggers, will need to be modified.For example, the gdb scripts for Python will need to be aware that there may be more than one Python frameper C frame.

C code that uses the Py_EnterRecursiveCall(), PyLeaveRecursiveCall() pair offunctions will continue to work correctly. In addition, Py_EnterRecursiveCall()may raise a StackOverflow exception.

New code should use the Py_CheckStackDepth() function, unless the code wants tocount as a Python function call with regard to the recursion limit.

We recommend that 'python-like' code, such as Cython-generated functions,use Py_EnterRecursiveCall(), but other code use Py_CheckStackDepth().

It will no longer be possible to crash the CPython virtual machine through recursion.

It is unlikely that the performance impact will be significant.

The additional logic required will probably have a very small negative impact on performance.The improved locality of reference from reduced C stack use should have some small positive impact.

It is hard to predict whether the overall effect will be positive or negative,but it is quite likely that the net effect will be too small to be measured.

Monitoring C stack consumption

Gauging whether a C stack overflow is imminent is difficult. So we need to be conservative.We need to determine a safe bounds for the stack, which is not something possible in portable C code.

For major platforms, the platform specific API will be used to provide an accurate stack bounds.However, for minor platforms some amount of guessing may be required.While this might sound bad, it is no worse than the current situation, where we guess that thesize of the C stack is at least 1000 times the stack space required for the chain of calls from_PyEval_EvalFrameDefault to _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault.

This means that in some cases the amount of recursion possible may be reduced.In general, however, the amount of recursion possible should be increased, as many calls will use no C stack.

Our general approach to determining a limit for the C stack is to get an address within the current C frame,as early as possible in the call chain. The limit can then be guessed by adding some constant to that.

Making Python-to-Python calls without consuming the C stack

Calls in the interpreter are handled by the CALL_FUNCTION,CALL_FUNCTION_KW, CALL_FUNCTION_EX and CALL_METHOD instructions.The code for those instructions will be modified so that whena Python function or method is called, instead of making a call in C,the interpreter will setup the callee's frame and continue interpretation as normal.

The RETURN_VALUE instruction will perform the reverse operation,except when the current frame is the entry frame of the interpreterwhen it will return as normal.

None, as yet.

Piazza

We will be using Piazza as an online discussion forum. You are encouraged to post any questions you might have about the course material. The course staff monitor Piazza fairly closely and you will usually get a quick response. If you know the answer to a question, you are encouraged to post it, but please avoid giving away any hints on the homework or posting any part of a solution—this is considered a violation of academic integrity.

By default, your posts are visible to the course staff and other students, and you should prefer this mode so that others can benefit from your question and the answer. However, you can post privately so that only the course staff can see your question, and you should do so if your post might reveal information about a solution to a homework problem. You can also post anonymously if you wish. If you post privately, we reserve the right to make your question public if we think the class will benefit.

Piazza is the most effective way to communicate with the staff and is the preferred mode of interaction. Please reserve email for urgent or confidential matters. Free-ranging technical discussions are especially encouraged. Broadcast messages from the course staff to students will be sent using Piazza and all course announcements will be posted there, so check in often.

CMS

We will be using the course management system CMS for managing assignments, exams, and grades. Everyone who preregistered for the course should be entered, but if you did not preregister, you are probably missing. Please login here and check whether you exist. There will be a list of courses you are registered for, and CS 2112 should be one of them. If not, please send your full name and Cornell netId to the Administrative Assistant or so that you can be registered.

You can check your grades, submit homework, and request regrades in CMS. Please check your grades regularly to make sure we are recording things properly. The system also provides some grading statistics. There is a help page with instructions.

Please do not repost course materials released on CMS publicly. These materials are intellectual property and are meant for participants in the course. They are not free to the public.

Announcements and Handouts

Announcements will be posted to Piazza. Homework and exam solutions will be available in CMS. Check frequently for new postings.

Assignments

There will be seven assignments, mostly involving programming but also some writtenproblems. These assignments will make up 40% of your score. The first three assignments will bedone alone. The last four assignments are parts of a single project, which will be done with a partner.

Unless otherwise specified, assignments may be turned in late with adeduction of 10% per day up to a maximum of four days.

Avoid the bomb ! mac os. Extensions are granted in case of illness or other acceptable excuse.

Exams

There will be one evening prelim and a final exam. Please check the schedule page for times and locations. The prelim will be 20% of your score and the final will be 35%.

Regrades

Graded homework will be available on CMS. Graded exams will be available in the handback room, 216 Gates.

Homework regrade requests can be submitted electronically in CMS. Exam regrades should be handwritten and submitted to the course staff. Please include a description of the grading error with your regrade request.

Academic Integrity

The utmost level of academic integrity is expected of all students. Under no circumstances may you submit work done with or by someone else under your own name or share detailed proofs or code with anyone else except your partner. However, questions regarding general techniques or the requirements of the assignment are permissible.

You must cite all sources, including Internet sources. You must acknowledge by name anyone whom you consulted.You may not give nor receive assistance from anyone else during an exam.You may not give any hints or post any material that might be part of a solution publicly on Piazza. If your question necessarily includes such material, post privately.

If you are unsure about what is permissible and what is not, please ask.

Course notes

Course notes for individual lectures and recitations can be found on thecourse schedule. The notes arealso available as a single printable document.

Java

Java is one of the most widely used object-oriented programming languages, and programming skill in the Java language is in high demand. Nevertheless, this is not a course about Java. Java is simply a good vehicle for explaining many of theideas on data structures, algorithms, and software engineering that will be covered in the course. Most of the ideas you will be exposed to in this course,and the skills you will develop, will transfer to other programming languages.

Online Resources

  • • CS 2110 has a comprehensive collection of online modules introducing Java and Eclipse, along with other resources.

  • • The Java API contains documentation for the extensive Java class library.

  • • The Java Language Specification is helpful if youwant to really understand how Java works.

  • • Oracle has an official Java Tutorial.

Brushing Up

Review the introductory chapters in the textbook and the Java reference books listed on the course info page. For students with C++ experience, check out this Wikipedia page comparing C++ with Java.

Java version

We will be using the Java 8 Standard Edition (Java SE 8) platform, whichconsists of the Java Development Kit (JDK) and the Java Runtime Environment(JRE). If you are using Java 7 or earlier, please upgrade.

To find out which version of the JRE you arerunning, open a command window (in Windows, Start > Run.. and type cmd,and in Mac OS, Applications > Utilities > Terminal)and type java -version at the command prompt:

This says I have version 8 installed (8 and 1.8 are synonymous).

If you are on a PC running Windows and have never installed a versionof the Java Development Kit (JDK) on your machine, you probably don't have it.If you are on a Mac, you probably do. To find out, type javac -version:

If you get an error message or the version is earlier than 1.8, you must (re)install the JDK.

Installing the JDK

The JDK is already installed in CIT and ACCEL labs. However, installing it ownyour own machine will greatly facilitate your work.

To download the JDK, visit Oracle's Java web site and download and install the appropriate version of the JDK 8 for your platform.

Compiling and Running from the Command Line

Compiling: Say your main class is MyProgram and it iscontained in the source file MyProgram.java.If it is not in a package, navigateto the folder containing MyProgram.javaand type javac MyProgram.java. If it is in a package (say myPackage), thesource should be in a folder called myPackage. Navigateto the folder containing myPackageand type javac myPackage/MyProgram.java.

Samurai anki mac os. Running: From the same folder you compiled from, typejava MyProgram <program arguments> if it is notin a package, and java myPackage.MyProgram <program arguments> if it is.

Specifying a Classpath: Sometimes you may need to inform Java where to find auxiliaryclasses. You can do this with the -cp optionto the java command.Supply a sequence of folders telling Java where to lookfor classes, separated by : (Mac) or; (Windows).

Local Software

Some Java libraries have been developed for use in CS 2110 and CS 2112 assignments.Feel free to use them.

EasyIO: Support for easy console input and output, and for scanninginput from a file or string (like java.util.Scanner, but more powerful).[ doc | jar | source ]

cs2110: Various types of queues, including a priority queue supporting in situ adjustment of priorities;a DelimitedStringBuilder similar to one found in OCaml; a module that runs an external script that takes astring on stdin and writes a string to stdout; and a module for easy access to a text resource file.[ doc | jar | source ]

IDEs

IDE stands for integrated development environment.The use of an IDE is the best way to develop Java programs.IDEs provide many valuable aids such as syntax checking,debugging, and refactoring that can save you a lot of effort.

There are many good IDEs. We recommend Eclipse, but youmay use any one that you like, or none at all.Eclipse is installed in all the labs, along with some others.Early recitation sections will get you started with Eclipseif you are not familiar with an IDE.

Here are some links:

For consistency, the course staff use Eclipse with a common Java style. Youshould follow this style guide. You can download the Eclipse style templatehere.

Academic Excellence Workshops

The Academic Excellence Workshops (AEW) offer an opportunity for students to gain additional experience with course concepts in a cooperative learning environment. Research has shown that cooperative and collaborative methods promote higher grades, greater persistence, and deeper comprehension. The material presented in the workshop is at or above the level of the regular course. We do not require joining the AEW program, but do encourage students to join if they are seeking an exciting and fun way to learn. The AEW carries one S/U credit based on participation and attendance. The time commitment is two hours per week in the lab. No homework will be given. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to seek extra help on course topics in a small group setting.

Your fellow undergraduate students, who are familiar with the course material, teach the sessions with material that they prepare. The course staff provide guidance and support but do not actually teach the AEW course content or any session. A representative from the AEW program will be speaking about the program and registration procedures in lecture.

One of your TAs will be designated as the AEW liaison for CS 2112. Watch theannouncements to find out who.
