#8817: segmentation fault in 7.8 RC1 -------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: hamishmack | Owner: simonmar Type: bug | Status: merge Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.8.1-rc1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Changes (by simonmar): * status: new => merge Comment: I fixed the problem with `-A16k`, which is actually a nasty codegen bug. I suspect the problem with `-A4k` is more benign and only occurs with very tiny `-A` values, and I think it's been around for a while. So merge this patch, then leave the ticket open with a lower prio for the -A4k fix. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8817#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
