[gsamokovarov (Genadi Samokovarov)]

Hi,

I have a snippet of code that crashes Ruby 2.1.{1,2} every time for me.

class Exception
  def set_backtrace_with_extension
    set_backtrace_without_extension(*args)
  end
 
  alias set_backtrace_without_extension set_backtrace
  alias set_backtrace set_backtrace_with_extension
end
 
raise

You can also download it at https://gist.github.com/gsamokovarov/2a855de7737b8c2443ec

It gives me the following on OSX with Ruby 2.1.2:

die_ruby.rb:10: [BUG] Segmentation fault at 0x007fff506c5ff8

fish: Job 1, 'ruby die_ruby.rb' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)

For the Ubuntu precise/Ruby 2.1.1 output, check out this link: https://gist.github.com/gsamokovarov/f2dc3b26857b134c8b21. Its pretty big, so I don't feel like pasting it here will help.

Notice how I don't declare the variadic args in the set_backtrace_with_extension method? The other rubies I tested (1.9.3-448 and 2.0.0-p353) give me:

die_ruby.rb:10: stack level too deep (SystemStackError)

[hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA)]

I can reproduce only 2.1.2.

but I couldn't reproduce it on next version of Ruby 2.1.

• Status changed from Open to Closed
• Backport changed from 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN to 2.0.0: DONTNEED, 2.1: DONTNEED

Hello, Genadi. Thank you for your report.
And thank you shibata san for your investigation.

Maybe this was already fixed by backport for #9454, #9828.
I'll close this ticket.
