New changeset d877d7f3b679 by Florent Xicluna in branch 'default': Actually, there's more than one failing value. (changeset 9cb1b85237a9, issue #13312). http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/d877d7f3b679 |

It fails for very low negative years: -2147483648 <= year < -2147481748 (-1<<31) <= year < (-1<<31) + 1900 Every other value behaves correctly on this FreeBSD buildbot: - (-1<<31) + 1900 <= year < (+1<<31) : correctly formatted with '%Z' - year < (-1<<31) : raises OverfowError - year >= (+1<<31) : raises OverfowError |

I mean formatted with '%Y', of course. |

The failing negative years test is still being skipped. I'm assuming this was not originally intended. |

I believe that this can be closed as the test code was changed completely in #17960. |

Mark, Issue #17960 ("Clarify the required behaviour of locals()") does not seem to be relevant here. I think you meant to refer to a changeset, not issue number. If so please use hash number such as d877d7f3b679. |

As far as I can tell, the original report was about a test failing due to a system-dependent behavior of time.asctime(). However, since changeset 1e62a0cee092 (see issue #8013), we no longer call system asctime. I believe the test disabled in 1a0bfc26af57 can now be restored. |

We still have the following in Lib/test/test_time.py: # Issue #13312: it may return wrong value for year < TIME_MINYEAR + 1900 # Skip the value test, but check that no error is raised self.yearstr(TIME_MINYEAR) I reviewed the current time.asctime() code and it does look like it invokes undefined behavior for extremely large negative years. The problem is that in C struct tm, year is stored as year - 1900 and for year < -2147481748 (= -2**31 + 1900) we trigger an overflow of a signed integer. Can someone confirm that on AMD64 FreeBSD subtracting 1900 from -2147483648 and then adding it back does not give -2147483648? |

Attached patch eliminates undefined behavior, but I am not sure fixing this is worth the trouble. |

If you enable GCC’s -ftrapv option, the subtraction overflow triggers an abort. Alexander’s patch works around the problem for asctime(), but the problem still exists in other cases, such as: >>> time.mktime((-2**31 + 1899, *(0,) * 8)) Aborted (core dumped) [Exit 134] Attaching a version of the patch without the conflicting whitespace changes. Why does Python even need to support such extreme time values? It would seem much simpler to raise an exception. |

OverflowError is now raised for negative values that would trigger a problem and the unittest has been updated to test this. |

Note for myself: Python 2.7 is not affected by this bug because it doesn't accept year < 1900. |
