| void __cdecl foo(unsigned __int32 a, unsigned __int32 b, unsigned __int32 c, unsigned __int32 d, unsigned __int32 e, unsigned __int32 f, unsigned __int32 g); struct myStruct { unsigned __int32 a; unsigned __int32 b; unsigned __int32 c; unsigned __int32 d; unsigned __int32 e; unsigned __int32 f; unsigned __int32 g; } void __cdecl bar(myStruct s); void __cdecl errorPassingParameter(myStruct s1, myStruct s2, unsigned __int32 x); Calling foo and bar from python completed successfully, calling errorParsingParameter resulted in stack corruption. It seems that python passed an extra pointer in the stack for s2. |

| Attaching a ctypes unittest (against 2.7 branch) that will expose this bug in regrtest. |

| Attached patch for this issue. This only happens on MSVC x64 (I actually tired to repro on Arch Linux x64 before starting work on it and it didn't repro). What happens is that MSVC on x64 always passes structures larger than 8 bytes by reference. See here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235286(v=vs.90).aspx Now this was accounted for in callproc.c, line 1143 in development branch with this: if (atypes[i]->type == FFI_TYPE_STRUCT #ifdef _WIN64 && atypes[i]->size <= sizeof(void *) #endif ) avalues[i] = (void *)args[i].value.p; else avalues[i] = (void *)&args[i].value; This fix wasn't made in libffi_msvc/ffi.c though. Here, regardless of whether we have x64 or x86 build, if z >= sizeof(int) we will hit else branch in libffi_msvc/ffi.c at line 114 and do: else { memcpy(argp, *p_argv, z); } p_argv++; argp += z; In our case, we copy 28 bytes as arguments (size of our structure) but in fact for x64 we only need 8 as structure is passed by reference so argument is just a pointer. My patch will adjust z before hitting if statement on x64 and it will cause correct copy as pointer. |

| Changing type to behavior as it doesn't crash on 3.3. I believe issue was opened against 2.6 and Santoso changed it to 2.7 and up where there is no crash. Another data point: there is similar fix in current version of libffi here: https://github.com/atgreen/libffi/blob/master/.pc/win64-struct-args/src/x86/ffi.c Since at the moment we are not integrating new libffi, I believe my fix should do (libffi fix is slightly different but I'm matching what we have in callproc.c which is not part of libffi). |

| This is a duplicate of issue 20160, and has been fixed. Can someone mark it as a duplicate and close it? |
