1153867 - Value decompiler iloops on object containing cycle, causing errors involving the object to hang the script

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect)

Description

[Till Schneidereit [:till]]

Attachment: testcase.zip

The attached zip contains a build of Shumway and a SWF. Playing the SWF in Shumway causes an iloop when trying to create an error for an object that can't be converted to a primitive. Yury and I tried reducing the testcase, but failed coming up with anything simpler than what we have here.

STR:
1. Unpack the zip
2. Run the following command in the same directory:
[path to JS shell] build/ts/shell.js -x math-function-7.swf

Expected result:
The script should print some output and then finish.

Actual result:
The script hangs after printing "Testing: abs with (22) [object Object] (object)".

Looking at this in a debugger, I see that there are quite a few nested invocations of js::ValueToSource. The depth doesn't grow infinitely, though, and the cycle detector does detect that there's a cycle, so it seems like there's a bug in how we then handle that cycle.

Attachment: stack

Here's the stack I captured in the debugger. It varies in depth (I think down to 85 frames).

Shumway is not a priority anymore. Closing this.
