#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: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by edsko): Yeah, I thought about that too, but I couldn't see anything different in the file descriptors in deadlocking runs and non-deadlocking runs -- but that was purely based on the file descriptor _numbers_ (9, 4, 8), so you may of course still be right. I didn't manage to verify or refute this :/ -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9284#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
