https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=287037 Bug ID: 287037 Summary: man(1) runs in endless loop Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: wosch@FreeBSD.org I noticed that man(1) crashed for some ports manual pages. The shell script man.sh limit the CPU usage to catch problems in the mandoc or groff toolchain. But in this case the shell scripts killed itself after 20 seconds due the high CPU usage. How to repeat: mkdir -p man/man3 echo '.so man3/m.3' | gzip > man/man3/m.3.gz /usr/bin/man man/man3/m.3.gz Killed or in debug mode: /usr/bin/man -d man/man3/m.3.gz -- Using architecture: amd64:amd64 -- Using pager: less -s -- Searching PATH for man directories -- Adding /usr/share/man to manpath -- Adding /usr/local/share/man to manpath -- Adding default manpath entries -- Adding /usr/share/openssl/man to manpath -- Parsing config file: /usr/local/etc/man.d/perl5.conf -- Adding /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/man to manpath -- Adding /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.36/perl/man to manpath -- Using manual path: /usr/share/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/share/openssl/man:/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/man:/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.36/perl/man -- Using manual sections: 1:8:2:3:3lua:n:4:5:6:7:9:l -- Using locale paths: . -- Using standard page width -- Searching for "man/man3/m.3.gz" -- Found a usable page, displaying that -- man/man3/m.3.gz includes man3/m.3 -- Found manpage "/tmp/man/man3/../man3/m.3.gz" -- Skipping catpage: not found or old -- /tmp/man/man3/../man3/m.3.gz includes man3/m.3 -- Found manpage "/tmp/man/man3/../man3/m.3.gz" -- Skipping catpage: not found or old -- /tmp/man/man3/../man3/m.3.gz includes man3/m.3 -- Found manpage "/tmp/man/man3/../man3/m.3.gz" -- Skipping catpage: not found or old [...] -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
