and the one in `awaitEvent()` aims to block as long as possible, so
#13497: GHC does not use select()/poll() correctly on non-Linux platforms -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Runtime System | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #8684, #12912 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by nh2): I was wrong when I said: Replying to [comment:1 nh2]: that's not a problem either. The `select()` occurrence in `awaitEvent()` waits for `sleeping_queue->block_info.target - now` so that also needs to be vetted on whether it has the `&tv` updating problem on non-Linux. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13497#comment:11 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
