Regression: PGroonga crashes PostgreSQL on CPU without AVX2

khalilsadiq786 commented 12 hours ago

What happened?

With PGroonga installed from the PPA on Ubuntu 22.04, as of 3.2.0 it worked correctly even on very old systems without AVX of any kind. However, sometime between 3.2.0 and 3.2.4 this appears to have changed. On 3.2.4, any queries which attempt to use PGroonga at all will crash PostgreSQL with an "Illegal instruction" error if the CPU does not support AVX2.

I do not see this documented anywhere, so believe it must be unintentional. Probably some compiler flag was accidentally changed somewhere in the build process.

Working on 3.2.0, not working on 3.2.4:

Server from OVH with Intel Atom (no AVX)
Server from OVH with Sandy Bridge Intel i3 (has AVX, does not have AVX2)

Working on 3.2.4:

Broadwell Intel Xeon server (has AVX2)

How to reproduce it

Attempt to use PGroonga on CPU without AVX2.

Expected behavior

PGroonga should work on these CPUs as it used to.

Environment

OS: Ubuntu
OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
PostgreSQL Version: 14
PGroonga Version: 3.2.4
libgroonga Version: 14.1.0

Could you provide PGroonga's log and PostgreSQL's log when PGroonga crashed?

PGroonga's log exist in /var/lib/postgresql/14/main/pgroonga.log in default. PostgreSQL's log exist in /var/log/postgresql in default.

Here's an example -- any query that touches PGroonga at all will trigger this (including a SELECT * FROM table query on a table which has a PGroonga index on it).

The PGroonga log is empty -- I can only assume it crashes before it would be able to write anything.
