#12650: Too many warnings about consistentCafInfo -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nomeata | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): See #9718, which answers (2). For (1) we check because if the predication is incorrect (e.g. says that it has no CAF refs when actually it does) we could fail to keep stuff alive during GC that was alive, with resulting seg-faults. Re (3), not too hard! And very valuable. See #9718. I'm keen to get this done. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12650#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
