#13471: segmentation fault by compiling GHC -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: vanto | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Build System | Version: 8.0.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: x86_64 Type of failure: Building GHC | (amd64) failed | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by bgamari): * milestone: => 8.2.1 Comment: The fact that this is `DynFlags` is suspicious. That module in particular takes quite a bit of memory to compile (especially at the moment, due to a known bug). Moreover, we have seen reports of segfaults on running out of memory. How much memory does your guest have available to it? Is this crash reproducible? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13471#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
