#10081: SIGTERM ignored when process has been detached from terminal -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nakal | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: libraries/unix | Version: 7.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: FreeBSD | Architecture: x86_64 Type of failure: Incorrect result | (amd64) at runtime | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by rwbarton): Okay, I tried running it under strace: the `write` from `hPutStrLn` is failing with `EIO`, which then gets turned into an exception, meaning `throwTo tid ExitSuccess` is never run. Since signals are handled in a new thread, if the signal handler raises an exception, it is reported to stderr (which, in this case, also fails with `EIO`), and the program continues to run. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10081#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
