Specifying a negative dense shape in tf.raw_ops.SparseCountSparseOutput results in a segmentation fault being thrown out from the standard library as std::vector invariants are broken.
import tensorflow as tf
indices = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0], dtype=tf.int64)
values = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0], dtype=tf.int64)
dense_shape = tf.constant([-100, -100, -100], shape=[3], dtype=tf.int64)
weights = tf.constant([], shape=[0, 0], dtype=tf.int64)
tf.raw_ops.SparseCountSparseOutput(indices=indices, values=values, dense_shape=dense_shape, weights=weights, minlength=79, maxlength=96, binary_output=False)
This is because the implementation assumes the first element of the dense shape is always positive and uses it to initialize a BatchedMap<T> (i.e., std::vector<absl::flat_hash_map<int64,T>>) data structure.
bool is_1d = shape.NumElements() == 1;
int num_batches = is_1d ? 1 : shape.flat<int64>()(0);
...
auto per_batch_counts = BatchedMap<W>(num_batches);
If the shape tensor has more than one element, num_batches is the first value in shape.
Ensuring that the dense_shape argument is a valid tensor shape (that is, all elements are non-negative) solves this issue.
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit c57c0b9f3a4f8684f3489dd9a9ec627ad8b599f5.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.5.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.4.2 and TensorFlow 2.3.3.
