#8189: Default to infinite stack size? -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Runtime | Version: 7.6.3 System | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 hour) Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: Runtime | Related Tickets: crash | Test Case: | Blocking: | -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): I've finally wrapped up the remaining loose ends. This required changes to the RTS in addition to a minor change in `base` to account for an interface change in `stackOverflow` (`rts/RtsUtils.c`). These can be found at, * https://github.com/bgamari/ghc/compare/infinite-stack * https://github.com/bgamari/packages-base/compare/infinite-stack How should we proceed from here? Seeing as all of the changes are fairly straightforward, perhaps this could go in for 7.8? I'd be happy to write up something for the user manual. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8189#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
