GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 306465
bug buddy doesn't limit backtrace depth
Last modified: 2006-12-31 13:32:10 UTC
It can stall cpu and generate a useless backtrace in the 10000s if need be (happened with an ephy bug on amd64). To prevent this, add a «set backtracelimit 200» to gdb-cmd (in /usr/share).
Changing severity to enhancement and marking as new.
Created attachment 77507 [details] [review] Trivial patch Here's a simple patch. Is this sufficient? If so, should I commit it or will you guys do it?
thanks a lot. Committed to HEAD: 2006-12-01 Ruben Vermeersch <ruben@savanne.be> * src/gdb-cmd: Added "set backtracelimit 200", fixes bug #306465.
