Yep!  That's what I expected...

Hmm....  Here's what I get when I run it in gdb.

This one I expect.  This is the Lua script running in its own thread
(thread 2).  It is waiting on a condition for the VHDL to complete its
side of things.  Now, the VHDL sets the condition by calling
exec_tcon() (in tcon_t0.c in tools/tb/tcon_t0/src).  But things are
getting messed upon the VHDL side of things, and I'm not sure where.

So, to try and track things down I sprinkled some printf's and
assert's throughout my code to see where this was happening.  I've
narrowed it down to the wait in the tcon_write function in the VHDL.
I've attached another project with the extra debug output.  Here's
what I get:

run process .fpga_stamp_t0(behav).t...@tcon_t0(behav).tcon_con [081E7328]
Calling init_tcon   <-- This is on the C side, called from the VHDL.
This is where the extra thread is created
Calling tcon_gpio_clrdir with clrdir=7   <-- This is also on the C
side, but called from the Lua thread
Calling exec_tcon with 0  <-- This is on the VHDL side, called from
the tcon process in tcon_t0.  The function number corresponds with a
tcon function of 'none' in the VHDL
Returning 9 from exec_tcon  <-- This is after the exec_tcon is done,
returning with a new function code.  It blocks in exec_tcon() until
the Lua side sets a function code.  The 9 indicates a new function,
which is 'gpio_clr_dir'
Calling exec_tcon with 9  <-- After the VHDL is done, it calls
exec_tcon with the function code.  The Lua thread is blocked waiting
for the VHDL to finish.  This call signals that the VHDL is done.  It
then blocks waiting for a new function.
Calling tcon_write with req=0, addr=1, data=2710  <-- On the Lua side
of things again.  It sets the function code (along with the data) and
blocks until the VHDL is done.
Returning 2 from exec_tcon  <-- Back to the VHDL side.  The VHDL
returns 2, which corresponds to a 'write'
../../../tools/tb/tcon_t0/src/tcon_t0.vhd:180:11:@0ms:(assertion
note): VHDL:  Executing tcon_write  <-- Now the VHDL assertions
showing the tcon_write is running in the VHDL
../../../tools/tb/tcon_t0/src/tcon_t0.vhd:144:7:@0ms:(assertion note):
VHDL:  Waiting for tcon_ack  <-- Here the VHDL is waiting for up to
1ps for the tcon_ack to get set to '1' (though it occurs in 0 time).
run process .fpga_stamp_t0(behav).t...@tcon_t0(behav).gpio_con [081E7328]
run process .fpga_stamp_t0(behav).cloc...@clocker_t0(behav).tcon_con [081EB9E8]
run process .fpga_stamp_t0(behav).cloc...@clocker_t0(behav).clk_gen(0).clk_con
[081EC970]   <-- We see the clocker_t0 processes run, which
corresponds with the write we were doing (trying to write the clock
generation modules).  Then it goes kaput after this.
Now is 0ms +0
../fpga_stamp_t0:error: invalid memory access (dangling accesses or
stack size too small)
../fpga_stamp_t0:error: simulation failed

The fact that is runs fine on your system does seem strange.  Now, I
don't know what build you are using.  Perhaps you can send me a
compiled version of fpga_stamp_m0 and I can see if that works for me?
If that compiled version works, then it would point to a problem with
my GHDL build.  If it poops out on my end, then it would point to
library issues (perhaps buggy pthread or Lua libraries).

Thanks,
Pete
