ImageSegmentTest>>#testImageSegmentsShouldBeWritableToaFile causes fatal lockup on ARM64 but not on Mac older VM

4414 posts

I just made a new ARM64 VM to try out the #fix_include_order VMMaker branch.

When running the TestRunner I noticed that the segment test goes into an infinite loop and cannot be interrupted. I'm not all that surprised that the segment loading fails but I an very annoyed that the interrupt fails to do anything. We've spent so much time over the years trying to make that work properly.

On my Mac running an older 2020 5.3 VM it does not fail.

Hi Tim.

> When running the TestRunner I noticed that the segment test goes into an infinite loop and cannot be interrupted.

Any idea, why that happens? Is the interruptSemaphore not working? See EventSensor >> #userInterruptWatcher.

Best,

Marcel
