Stack overflow in calculateStrongComponentJacobians

Description

When compiling a model with about 200k equations, I get this error during the performance of calculateStrongComponentJacobians:

[/build/openmodelica-pVlUNC/openmodelica-1.12.0~dev-633-gd90ff1c/OMCompiler/Compiler/BackEnd/BackendDAEUtil.mo:6963:3-6963:155:writable] Error: Internal error Stack overflow in BackendDAEUtil.getSolvedSystem...

This happens with the standard 8192 kB stack size. If I increase it to 65535 kB it works fine, but I guess this might be a tell-tale sign of a not-too-efficient implementation.

I can provide the test case separately if needed.

@casella: Is this still the case? Can you provide an example model?

comment:2 Changed 7 years ago by hkiel

A quick look:
SymbolicJacobian.createAllDiffedVars is recursive with matchcontinue, so no tail-recursion can be applied.

I implemented a fix that avoids recursion in OMCompiler#1795

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

Problem solved, thanks!

In fact, after some more testing I still got stack overflow, this time on a different function; I opened a separate ticket for that, see #4534.

What is strange is that the first time I ran omc on that test model it worked fine, the second time it failed. Is there such a thing as stack memory leaks?

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
