#12110: Windows exception handler change causes segfault with API Monitor ----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: enolan | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Runtime System | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: Runtime crash Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: ----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- [http://www.rohitab.com/apimonitor API Monitor] is a debugging tool that intercepts and logs calls to DLLs. It was extremely helpful with debugging #12010 and is broken in recent GHCs. Attaching it to a GHC compiled executable causes the message `Segmentation fault/access violation in generated code` to be printed. Launching one from inside API Monitor doesn't work either, though I can't read the console output before the window closes. Bisect shows the offending commit is 5200bdeb26 - "Replaced SEH handles with VEH handlers which should work uniformly across x86 and x64". I know this is somewhat outside of "standard usage", but there are very few useful debugging tools for stuff like this and I'd really like to not lose this one. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12110 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
