[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46315] Assertion Failed - profiler crash on every 2nd time execution halts

[Lachlan Andrew]

Update of bug #46315 (project octave):

              Depends on:                         => bugs #39587

Follow-up Comment #5:

The problem seems to be related to bug #39587.  There used to be an


assert (active_fcn != call_tree);


in profile_data_accumulator::exit_function, but that was removed to avoid the
above bug.  If the latter function is called when the profiler is active,
whatever triggered bug #39587 will trigger the current bug.

The simple work-around of replacing


  if (is_active ())
    add_current_time ();


in profile_data_accumulator::exit_function by


  if (is_active () && active_fcn != call_tree)
    add_current_time ();


prevents the assertion from being triggered, but for some reason the second
call to errtest_script has an extra call to exit_function(), which sets
active_fcn = 0.  This causes a seg fault the third time the script is run.

Time for some sleep now...
