STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@gmail.com> added the comment: faulthandler has arbitrary limits to avoid an unlimited loop if some data are corrupted.
#define MAX_STRING_LENGTH 100 #define MAX_FRAME_DEPTH 100 #define MAX_NTHREADS 100 The string limit is maybe too short. MAX_STRING_LENGTH can be set to 500 characters, what do you think? We may also add a function to change these limits at runtime. > Without investigating further, my instinct would be to prefer to truncate in > the middle, > if possible, otherwise truncate the head of the path, rather than truncate > the tail. faulthandler does not trust anything, including the length of the string. Change the limit to 500 characters should be safer. Remember that faulthandler is called when something really bad happens, like a segfault or an illegal instruction. faulthandler may be less strict when it is called explicitly, ex: faulthandler.dump_traceback(). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15463> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
