Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Zooko O'Whielacronx (zooko) Assigned to: Simon Marlow (simonmar) Summary: segmentation fault Initial Comment: http://bugs.darcs.net//Ticket/Display.html?id=367 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Simon Marlow (simonmar) Date: 2005-12-02 12:31 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=48280 Fixed; this was a bug in the regex library distributed with GHC. The regex library originally comes from FreeBSD, and it turns out the FreeBSD folks had already patched this problem in a later revision, so I brought over the patch (FreeBSD rev. 1.24 regcomp.c; GHC rev. 1.7). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Zooko O'Whielacronx (zooko) Date: 2005-11-29 13:33 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=52562 to reproduce: 1. Download http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jboss/jboss-4.0.3SP1.tar.bz2?download 2. Untar it 3. darcs initialize 4. darcs record -al -m foo Expected behavior: darcs records a massive patch adding all of the contents to the repo. Actual behavior: on Linux and Mac OS X darcs works as expected. On Windows it gives an error. I believe the error varies. radekg reported this: http://bugs.darcs.net/msg20 I tried darcs 1.0.4. and got some uninformative error message generated by darcs. Then I tried darcs 1.0.3 and got this: darcs.exe: internal error: stg_ap_v_ret Please report this as a bug to [email protected], or http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/ghc/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Zooko O'Whielacronx (zooko) Date: 2005-11-28 15:52 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=52562 Hooray! A repeatable test case has been found! http://bugs.darcs.net/issue8 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Simon Marlow (simonmar) Date: 2005-09-23 10:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=48280 Without a repeatable test case, there's nothing we can do with this bug report, sorry. If it reappears, feel free to post more information and we can re-open the bug. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Zooko O'Whielacronx (zooko) Date: 2005-06-10 15:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=52562 For what it is worth, I haven't gotten any of these errors since I stopped trying to use darcs on lots of large binary patches containing 100's of MB per patch. So I suspect the bug is triggered by certain memory usage patterns... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Simon Marlow (simonmar) Date: 2005-05-03 15:07 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=48280 If the darcs devs can confirm that this is most likely a bug in GHC, as opposed to a bug in darcs due to use of FFI or unsafeWhatNot, then we'll look into it. We need a repro case (the repository that caused the failure, at least), and the same darcs sources. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=108032&aid=1194393&group_id=8032 _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
