#13497: GHC does not use select()/poll() correctly on non-Linux platforms -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Runtime System | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: 8684 Related Tickets: #8684, #12912 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by nh2): Addition to above comment: Probably the only time that worked was before commit [https://github.com/ghc/ghc/commit/b0316cdb10fbd9eaca7ede28c7bb3eb19f7766bf b0316cdb] (#9169) that added the `FD_SETSIZE` check -- in which case it probably only worked due to writing to (and likely corrupting) out-of- bounds memory beyond the size of the `fd_set`. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13497#comment:24 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
