#16186: Segfault when embedding data via file-embed. ----------------------------------------+--------------------------------- Reporter: syd | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.4.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Linux Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: ----------------------------------------+--------------------------------- I made a minimal reproducible-ish example here: https://github.com/NorfairKing/nix-segfault-haskell and described it at length here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/52439#issuecomment-453872693 The problem seems to occur (randomly) when literal strings are embedded via TH. By the way: to embed about 10MiB of data, 12 cores are being used at 100% which seems mildly absurd. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16186 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
