Summary: There's a race condition like this: # A foreign pointer gets promoted to the last generation # It has its finalizer called manually # We start shutting down the runtime in `hs_exit_` from the main thread # A minor GC starts running (`scheduleDoGC`) on one of the threads # The minor GC notices that we're in `SCHED_INTERRUPTING` state and advances to `SCHED_SHUTTING_DOWN` # The main thread tries to do major GC (with `scheduleDoGC`), but it exits early because we're in `SCHED_SHUTTING_DOWN` state # We end up with a `DEAD_WEAK` left on the list of weak pointers of the last generation, because it relied on major GC removing it from that list This change: * Ignores DEAD_WEAK finalizers when shutting down * Makes the major GC on shutdown more likely * Fixes a bogus assert Test Plan: before this diff https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7170#comment:5 reproduced and after it doesn't Reviewers: ezyang, austin, simonmar Reviewed By: simonmar Subscribers: bgamari, thomie Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D921 GHC Trac Issues: #7170
