#8189: Default to infinite stack size? -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Runtime | Version: 7.6.3 System | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 hour) Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: Runtime | Related Tickets: crash | Test Case: | Blocking: | -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment (by thoughtpolice): Merged in `d85044f6b201eae0a9e453b89c0433608e0778f0` with some minor tweaks. Notably, when `allocateFail(...) == NULL` when allocating `new_stack`, we call `stackOverflow(tso)` and then `stg_exit`, instead of `throwToSingleThreaded`. This is more in line with what `allocate` will now do. Thanks to Ben and Reid Barton for helping with this and spotting that error! -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8189#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
