Subject: handle_error_hook in LuaMetaTeX
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2020 18:17:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200731161751.nhcq2mzqvbeipeaw@yoga> (raw)

Hi,

thanks for handling
f file consition in LuaMetaTeX. While playing with that, I encountered a
potential bug in the latest LuaMetaTeX version: If handle_error_hook is
executed and returns any number, LuaMetaTeX segfaults. (I'm pretty sure
that this still worked with the previous version) Minimal ConTeXt
example:

\enabledirectives[system.quitonerror=false]
\directlua{
  print(callbacks.register('handle_error_hook', function(...)
    return 3
  end))
}
\undefined % Trigger an error
\starttext
\stoptext

This triggers

[...]
tex error       > tex error on line 7 in file ./test_empty_input.tex: ! Undefined control sequence

l.7 \undefined
[...]
 9     \stoptext

segmentation fault (core dumped)  /home/marcel/lmtx-install/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/luametatex    cont-yes.mkiv 

valgrind suggests that this is caused by an attempt to access a null
pointer:
