--- Comment #10 from Peter Bergner <bergner at gcc dot gnu.org> --- (In reply to Andreas Schwab from comment #8) > See PR c++/49756. It uses 64MB, not unlimited. [bergner@ltcden2-lp1 ICE]$ ulimit -s 8192 [bergner@ltcden2-lp1 ICE]$ /opt/gcc-nightly/trunk/bin/gcc -S test.c gcc: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault signal terminated program cc1 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source (by using -freport-bug). See <https://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/> for instructions. [bergner@ltcden2-lp1 ICE]$ ulimit -s 65536 [bergner@ltcden2-lp1 ICE]$ /opt/gcc-nightly/trunk/bin/gcc -S test.c [bergner@ltcden2-lp1 ICE]$ So it SEGV's with 8M stack, but is ok with explicit 64M stack. The automatic stack limit code is guarded by: void stack_limit_increase (unsigned long pref ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED) { #if defined(HAVE_SETRLIMIT) && defined(HAVE_GETRLIMIT) \ && defined(RLIMIT_STACK) && defined(RLIM_INFINITY) ... I'll have to see why one or more of these are not set on Power.
