Subject: [Tarantool-patches] [PATCH luajit] Prevent snapshot purge while recording a function header.
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2026 15:11:40 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225121140.18847-1-skaplun@tarantool.org> (raw)
From: Mike Pall <mike>
Thanks to Sergey Kaplun.
(cherry picked from commit d459c6ce503e880dc30aefb6b61aa7f2124c7a6e)
This patch is a follow-up to the commit
7505e78bd6c24cac6e93f5163675021734801b65 "Handle on-trace OOM errors
from helper functions.". Since this commit, the `pcall()` (and
`xpcall()`) emits an additional snapshot, but the arguments to the
pcall-ed function are momentarily purged from the snapshot since they
are not used. Hence, in several cases `debug.getlocal()` can't find the
corresponding slot for the previous frame.
This patch prevents purging right after `pcall()`, `xpcall()` recording.
Sergey Kaplun:
* added the description and the test for the problem
