#9333: Thread status decoded wrong in base library -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: jberthold | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: libraries/base | Version: 7.8.3 Keywords: | Differential Revisions: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Incorrect result | Unknown/Multiple at runtime | Difficulty: Easy (less Test Case: | than 1 hour) Blocking: | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Kyle Van Berendonck in [http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2014-July/005677.html a message on ghc-devs] pointed to [https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/master/libraries/base/GHC/Conc/Sync.lhs#L483 base/GHC/Conc/Sync.lhs] decoding thread block reasons from constants defined in includes/rts/Constants.h to a Haskell type. The constants were modified in GHC-7.8.2, which created problems with eventlogs (ticket #9003), so the constants were reverted, but base was not adapted to the respective fix. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9333 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
