#10017: signal handlers are invoked multiple times when the threaded rts is used -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: redneb | Owner: simonmar Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.10.1-rc1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: Type of failure: Incorrect result | Unknown/Multiple at runtime | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #9423 | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by AndreasVoellmy): I'm still getting up to speed, but it looks like that offending loop in `generic_handler` should just be removed. We have to signal to all the control pipes in `ioManagerDie()` (to solve the issue that led to that commit), but not in `generic_handler` (it seems). I'll look into it a bit more to check my understand and run some tests. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10017#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
