Re: Anyone else failing to validate on 'linker_unload'?

1 Sep 2013

      Hi Austin,

Should have said -- this is 64-bit RHEL 6 (my academic departments
standardized configuration).

 $ uname -a
     Linux  2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jun 17 15:54:20 EDT 2013
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Weirdly it seems to have a different behavior when run by "make" and by
hand.  When I run the make command you provided it segfaults with error
code 2:

*cd . && $MAKE -s --no-print-directory linker_unload    
...
linker_unload.run.stdout 2>linker_unload.run.stderr*
*Wrong exit code (expected 0 , actual 2 )*
*Stdout:*
*Stderr:*
*make[1]: *** [linker_unload] Segmentation fault (core dumped)*
**** unexpected failure for linker_unload(normal)*
*Unexpected results from:*
*TEST="linker_unload"*
But then when I run it by hand with "./linker_unload" or "valgrind
./linker_unload" I get an unknown symbol error with exit code 1:

*==70613==*
*linker_unload: Test.o: unknown symbol `base_GHCziNum_zdfNumInt_closure'*
*linker_unload: resolveObjs failed*
*==70613==*
*==70613== HEAP SUMMARY:*

I have also not seen this test fail on amd64/Linux since Simon
committed it. From the valgrind output, it looks like your machine is
32bit, correct Ryan? Edward told me yesterday on IRC he saw this fail
on 64bit Linux, so I'm a little confused.
Can you please try this?
$ cd testsuite/tests/rts
$ make TEST="linker_unload" EXTRA_HC_OPTS="-debug"
$ valgrind ./linker_unload
This will link you with a debug copy of the RTS, so Valgrind/GDB can
relate errors back to the relevant source code. Perhaps this will help
shed light on your problem.

However, as far as I can tell, it is not 100% reproduceable.
In a recent validate of 5f98d44d8617756971cf47c040f2556de4e98f63,
this test does not fail.

Yes, this one is failing for me too. Probably related to the
recent object unload patch for

That test builds an executable named 'linker_unload' which segfaults
for
me.  Valgrind says this:

This went the same across a couple different independent checkouts.
