Bug ID: 61798 Summary: OpenMP exit code 155, profiling related? Product: gcc Version: 4.9.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libgomp Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: kessler at iag dot uni-stuttgart.de CC: jakub at gcc dot gnu.org I have got an OpenMP program (written in C++) up and running. However, when running my test suite of 43 cases for profiling (with -pg, it's CFD flow solver running in batch mode), some (usually 2-3) cases fail with an exit code of 155 -after- full completion of my code (that is, after return 0; in main). This only happens if several codes run in parallel on the same machine (this capability of the test script is from before the OpenMP parallelisation effort), and even then not always, and with varying cases, so I am quite confident it is not primarily a bug in my code. >From scanning the output I have seen a message from the shell, apparently catching a SIGPROF, which seems reasonable as I have profiling enabled, but probably should not propagate outside the executable. I have never seen this problem with profiling in non-OpenMP mode. Unfortunately I can not share my code, but I think it is not related to the user code anyway, but perhaps some race condition in the interaction between profiling and OpenMP at program exit? Thanks for shedding some light on this bizarre situation. Ciao, Manuel
