Hi, I tested this on a real ppc64le machine:
root@1325f5985861:/# python3 -c "import math; print(math.exp(-1))" 0.36787944117144233 root@1325f5985861:/# uname -a Linux 1325f5985861 5.4.0-21-generic #25+lp1866909v202004031128-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 3 18:38:30 UTC 202 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux It looks like it's a qemu bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to python3-defaults in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1871451 Title: powerpc segfault on exponential of negative in python Status in cloud-images: New Status in python3-defaults package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When calculating the exponential of a negative number in python 3.6 with the Ubuntu 18.04 Docker image (ppcle64), I receive a segfault. ``` python3 -c "import math; math.exp(-1)" qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped Segmentation fault ``` I am running this in Docker on macOS. Here are the steps to reproduce the error. ``` docker run --rm -it --platform linux/ppc64le ubuntu:18.04 apt-get update -qq && apt-get install -y -qq python3 python3 -c "import math; print(math.exp(0))" # 1.0 python3 -c "import math; print(math.exp(-0))" # 1.0 python3 -c "import math; print(math.exp(1))" # 2.718281828459045 python3 -c "import math; print(math.exp(-1))" ``` This error does not happen when using the debian:10 or alpine images.
