#9284: shutdownCapability sometimes loops indefinitely on OSX after forkProcess -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: edsko | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Unknown/Multiple | Difficulty: Unknown Type of failure: | Blocked By: None/Unknown | Related Tickets: #9377 Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by AndreasVoellmy): I created a new issue #9423 for the problem when caused by a call to `hs_exit`. Now we can treat the issue here as being specific to `forkProcess`. Since we have a fix for this (I believe) we can close this ticket independently of #9423. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9284#comment:13 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
