rust/tests/crashes/README.md

818 B

This is serves as a collection of crashes so that accidental ICE fixes are tracked. This was formally done at https://github.com/rust-lang/glacier but doing it inside the rustc testsuite is more convenient.

It is imperative that a test in the suite causes an internal compiler error/panic or makes rustc crash in some other way. A test will "pass" if rustc exits with something other than 1 or 0.

When adding crashes from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues, the issue number should be noted in the file name (12345.rs should suffice) and perhaps also inside the file via //@ known-bug #4321

If you happen to fix one of the crashes, please move it to a fitting subdirectory in tests/ui and give it a meaningful name. Also please add a doc comment at the top of the file explaining why this test exists. :)
