This is an attempt to address the Quantum++ backend receiving out-of-range qubit indices in some cases. For example, due to using a different code path, this code works (thanks to Akihiro for both examples):
Yet this code throws a runtime error:
Specifically, the error was:
Or with XACC built with debug mode, the following assertion is tripped beforehand:
With this change, this issue no longer occurs because the ancilla buffer is passed for
xacc::internal_compiler::execute()
. Before,xacc::internal_compiler::execute()
noticed that some instructions were referencing an AcceleratorBufferaux_temp_buffer
not in the list of buffers passed to it and tried to recreate one, but that apparently failed to prevent some misbehavior in this case.Testing
Ran those two examples above, both of which worked. Also ran the unit tests via
ctest
, and no new tests failed compared to master
