Segfault when catching SystemStackError in eval

ruby 2.4.1p111 (2017-03-22 revision 58053) [x86_64-linux]
[ruby-core:81366]

Description

This minimal testcase will crash most ruby versions with a SIGSEGV (though it's likely that other constructions could trigger the same behavior). Effectively, after the first SystemStackError that is caught from eval, a subsequent stack overflow will crash ruby rather than triggering another SystemStackError.

Failing testcase:

ruby -e "code = '+1' * 100000; 2.times {begin; eval code; rescue SystemStackError => e; p e; end}"
#<SystemStackError: stack level too deep>
[1]    23587 segmentation fault (core dumped)  ruby -e

Succeeding testcase:

ruby -e "def x; x; end; 2.times {begin; x; rescue SystemStackError => e; p e; end}"
#<SystemStackError: stack level too deep>
#<SystemStackError: stack level too deep>

Updated by mjones (Morgan Jones) over 7 years ago

Here's a GDB trace with VMDEBUG=1 for a Ruby 2.4.1 checkout. It appears that the crash occurs when setting up the frame in iseq_compile_each, when the application tries to access rsp+8 (0x7fffff7fed50+8). This lands in the redzone page, and a segfault occurs.

$ gdb --args ./miniruby -e "code = '+1' * 100000; 2.times {begin; eval(code); rescue SystemStackError; end}"
