Depends On: 1635160

Classification: Fedora
(Cloned from a RHEL7 report)
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1635160 +++
Description of problem:
Trying to print with cups a 4Gb text file fail.
texttopaps consume all the memory and is killed bye the system:
[1023082.003989] Out of memory: Kill process xxxx (texttopaps) score 955 or
sacrifice child
[1023082.005120] Killed process xxxx (texttopaps) total-vm:19958848kB,
anon-rss:7531872kB, file-rss:84kB, shmem-rss:0kB
/usr/lib/cups/filter/texttopaps 1 user1 "example" 1 "" sample-4Gb.txt

Hmm, that log says it all. I don't think OOM is a software bug.
--- Additional comment from GV on 2018-10-03 13:00:48 SGT ---
Of course OOM is not a software bug. Where exactly did I said that?
The problem is texttopaps that allocate memory out of control.
texttopaps should allocate memory, use-it, release-it. Like any sane program.
The issue was not present on RHEL 6. I had printed the same file multiple times
with cups on RHEL6 and it worked just fine (not sure it was texttopaps cups
filter involved). Printing the file does not work on RHEL 7 and it should.
The 4Gb file is a testcase for our application we develop.
--- Additional comment from Jens Petersen on 2018-10-18 17:49:35 SGT ---
I don't think the paps in RHEL7 is significantly different from RHEL6.
As you say it could be due to changes in Cups?
The cups versions in RHEL 6, 7 and Fedora are certainly quite different.
Unless texttopaps really worked in RHEL6 it might make to reassign this to
cups?
--- Additional comment from GV on 2018-10-25 18:29:46 SGT ---
Since the real computer running RHEL 6 was already scrapped, I tried to make a
virtual machine using RHEL 6. Unfortunately, now I also get a crash on RHEL 6
when printing the 4GB file. I can't recall how much memory was in that
computer. The virtual machine had 8Gb of memory allocated.
Still, it does not matter that much.
I think texttopaps have an issue and it should be fixed or at least an
workaround should be available (other than 'don't print a file that large').
I'm afraid this is not a cups issue since I can reproduce the issue running the
texttopaps standalone.
Sincerely,
Gabriel

paps isn't supposed to work with large files. to support it, most of code needs
to rewritten. this isn't realistic to provide an update for existing products.
for a workaround, you can remove paps package (or simply remove
/usr/share/cups/mime/paps.convs file) to fall back the text filter to texttops
which CUPS originally provides. this should works for this issue and as long as
you don't need the internationalization support for printing.
Hope that helps.

The fonts are not actively maintained, there is no new release since my 2015
package.
And, I don't have time to maintain the package further.
Plus, users can still install the fonts manually themselves.
I decide to Close this bug report. Thanks!

This is an automatic check from review-stats script.
This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry
it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software
into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the
NEEDINFO flag.
You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version
available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase
chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you
need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group.
Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned
and will be closed.
Thank you for your patience.
