#15363: Do some cleaning up of the testsuite driver -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: lantti | Owner: lantti Type: task | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Test Suite | Version: 8.4.3 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 lantti): It seems that timeout.hs is even not fully functional under minTTY/msys2 shell at the moment. Something along the way intercepts Ctrl-c and kills the whole process tree without giving the timeout program or the testsuite cleanup code (stopNow(), etc) a chance to react to it. The bright side to this is that those cleanup routines were mostly concerned with eliminating stray processes which the shell (or whatever intercepts the Ctrl-C) seems to do for us anyway. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15363#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
