| Description | MMQA test function/232.c exercises arena extension and compaction. But on the master sources at changelevel 194446: test$ perl test/qa run function/232.c sh: line 1: 83498 Segmentation fault: 11 test/obj/xci6ll/tmp_test ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- FAILED TEST function/232.c |
| Analysis | It looks as though function/232.c is being compiled in the hot variety, but then linked against a libmps.a which has been compiled in the cool (Debug) variety. Thus the layout of ArenaStruct is different and ArenaChunkRing is returning nonsense. |
