Hello!
Does anybody here uses GHC on Linux with SELinux turned on?
I've just installed SELinux and run into GHC/SELinux incompatibility.
It seems that the similar problem was reported some time ago and was fixed in
6.4.3. However, I use 6.6.1 and the problem is still here.
$ ghc
ghc-6.6.1: internal error: getMBlock: mmap: Permission denied
(GHC version 6.6.1 for i386_unknown_linux)
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
Exactly the same bug is appearing on x86_64 architecture.
Much more details is available at http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/738
Any ideas?
With best regards,
Alexander.
PS. Is it possible to turn on global allow_execmem boolean in SELinux policy,
thus enabling executable memory mapping. This solves the problem. However, this
is major drawback for system security and should be avoided at any cost.
