Example below leads to segmentation fault. Works fine without warnings FATAL => 'all'​:

#!/usr/bin/perl
package Foo;
use strict; use utf8; use warnings FATAL => 'all';

sub new
{
  return bless{ 'field' => undef }, 'Foo';
}

sub DESTROY
{
  my $self = shift;
  $self->{'field'}->missing_method;
}

package main;

my $foo = new Foo;
undef($foo);

Oh, *that* bug. Last time this came up, no one could decide exactly how it should behave.

Errors in destructors are turned into warning. If those warnings are fatal, then they get turned into errors, but errors in destructors are caught and turned into warnings....

I don’t remember how the previous conversation ended, or which ticket it was in (it was a side issue in the ticket in question, so it’s hard to search for it).

Should we just ignore the fatality in this case and emit a warning?

It's getting stuck in a recursive loop, emitting a warning which gets
upgraded to a croak (due to FATAL => 'all') which emits a warning,
and so on until either the stack blows or memory is exhausted.

The bit I don't understand is that die_unwind(), in addition to croaking
with this message​:

  Can't call method "missing_method" on an undefined value

is first attempting to emit this warning​:

  \t(in cleanup) Can't call method "missing_method" on an undefined value

The actual code in pp_ctl.c is​:

  if (in_eval & EVAL_KEEPERR) {
  Perl_ck_warner(aTHX_ packWARN(WARN_MISC), "\t(in cleanup) %"SVf,
  SVfARG(exceptsv));
  }

and EVAL_KEEPERR is true because S_curse() has done

  call_cv("DESTROY", G_DISCARD|G_EVAL|G_KEEPERR|G_VOID);

Because I don't understand the whole die / $@​ / stack unwind malarky,
I don't feel in a position to know how to fix this. Zefram? Anyone else?

call\_cv\("DESTROY"\, G\_DISCARD|G\_EVAL|G\_KEEPERR|G\_VOID\);

Because I don't understand the whole die / $@​ / stack unwind malarky,
I don't feel in a position to know how to fix this. Zefram? Anyone else?

Either we need to check for a fatal warning and disable it temporarily (in die_unwind), or when turning the warning into an error first make check that !(PL_in_eval & EVAL_KEEPERR) (in the warnings code itself).

I've attached a patch to do the latter. Comments?

And how can I write a test for this that fails nicely? Some ulimit hackery?

It seems to me that this behavior is not isolated to fatal warnings, but also runtime strict exceptions. I may be wrong, but here's the result i am seeing on my windows Perl​:

  C​:\>perl -e "use warnings FATAL => 'all'; sub DESTROY { my $x + 1;}; bless {}"
 
  C​:\>perl -e "use warnings FATAL => 'all'; my $x + 1;"
  Useless use of addition (+) in void context at -e line 1.
 
  C​:\>perl -e "use strict; my $r = 'f'; sub DESTROY { $$r; }; bless {}"
 
  C​:\>perl -e "use strict; my $r = 'f'; $$r;"
  Can't use string ("f") as a SCALAR ref while "strict refs" in use at -e line 1.

I was wrong, was seeing scoping oddities.

That said, while i'm poking this, Mauke's patch above has been sitting there for a while and deserves attention.
