IPP6.1 "Access violation reading" when using ippiResizeSqrPixel_8u_C3R

[vojtecht]

Hi,

When using ippiResizeSqrPixel_8u_C3R I get Access Violation with IPP 6.1 on Core 2 Duo in x64 version of my software. Here's a sample piece of code which doesn't work properly:

// downsizing 24 bit image 768x768 - that means we need 1769472B
void* pv=VirtualAlloc(NULL, 2048*1024, MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE); // I will use last 1769472B for the image
void* pv1=VirtualAlloc(NULL, 2048*1024, MEM_RESERVE, PAGE_READWRITE); // reserved memory so we always get AV
ASSERT((BYTE*)pv1==(BYTE*)pv+2048*1024); // block pv1 has to follow pv

IppiSize srcSize={768,768}; // downsizing 768x768 to 192x192
IppiSize dstSize={192,192};
IppiRect srcRect={0,0, srcSize.width,srcSize.height};
IppiRect dstRect={0,0, dstSize.width,dstSize.height};
int interpolation = IPPI_INTER_SUPER;
int scanSrc=4*((srcSize.width*3+3)/4); // aligned to 32 bits
int scanDst=4*((dstSize.width*3+3)/4);
double xFactor=dstSize.width/(double)srcSize.width; // factor 0.25
double yFactor=dstSize.height/(double)srcSize.height;

int BufferSize=0;
IppStatus status=ippiResizeGetBufSize(srcRect, dstRect, 3, interpolation, &BufferSize);
Ipp8u* pBuffer=ippsMalloc_8u(BufferSize);

BYTE *pDst=new BYTE[scanDst*dstSize.height];
BYTE *pSrc=(BYTE*)pv1-scanSrc*srcSize.height;

//ippiResizeSqrPixel will result in access violation reading location pv1
status=ippiResizeSqrPixel_8u_C3R(pSrc, srcSize, scanSrc, srcRect, pDst, scanDst, dstRect, xFactor, yFactor, 0, 0, interpolation, pBuffer);
ippsFree(pBuffer);
...

It happens with ippiu8-6.1.dll and ippim7-6.1.dll, when I erase both of them, it seems to be working. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your answer

PS: Same thing happens when I try to use ippiResize_8u_C3R
PPS: ippiResizeSqrPixel fails when xFactor!=yFactor, am I missing something?

Hello Vojtech,

Seeing from your code, everything looks fine. You mentioned ippiResizeSqrPixel failed whenxFactor!=yFactor . What exact value of them?

We have a known issue regarding the function at <http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/resize-function-ippiresizesqrpixel-crashed-for-small-image/> , but it only occurs when small image.
I try to printthe value pv, pv1, pDst, pSrcand test on "m7", "u7"machinewith IPP 6.1 . But it runs without any problem. Would you please try them and let me know the result at your machine?

The ippiResizeSqr.cpp as attached.

// Print the version of ipp being used
const IppLibraryVersion* lib = ippiGetLibVersion();
printf("%s %s %d.%d.%d.%dn", lib->Name, lib->Version,lib->major, lib->minor, lib->majorBuild, lib->build);

void* pv=VirtualAlloc(NULL, 2048*1024, MEM_COMMIT, PAGE_READWRITE); // I will use last 1769472B for the image
void* pv1=VirtualAlloc(NULL, 2048*1024, MEM_RESERVE, PAGE_READWRITE); // reserved memory so we always get AV
assert((BYTE*)pv1==(BYTE*)pv+2048*1024); // block pv1 has to follow pv

printf("pv address: %x n", pv);
printf("pv1 address: %x n", pv1);

and build it in MSVC 2005 for x64
>C:Program FilesIntelIPP6.1.0.032em64ttoolsenvippenvem64t.bat
>cl ippiResizeSqr.cpp ippiem64t.lib ippsem64t.lib ippcoreem64t.lib

The result is about

ippiu8-6.1.dll 6.1 build 137.15 6.1.137.804
pv address: 3360000
pv1 address: 3560000
pSrc address: 33b0000
pDst address: 32e0ca0

>You mentioned ippiResizeSqrPixel failed when xFactor!=yFactor . What exact value of them?
Now I see that it happens only when one of the factors is 1. So an image wasn't downsized in both dimensions - my fault.

>We have a known issue...
I am aware of that.
