And if I turn it into an "#ifdef SUPPORT_JIT", t7812.16 fails with PCRE2 versions 10.34 and 10.35. SUPPORT_JIT is defined in PCRE2's config.h and not baked into any of its public headers, so it never will be set in grep.c, right? Perhaps just drop this condition? The patch below adds a test that fails even with a PCRE2 configured with --disable-git. Current main passes this test even with PCRE2 versions 10.34 and 10.35. "PCRE2_MATCH_INVALID_UTF && (options & PCRE2_UTF)" can be simplified to "options & PCRE2_MATCH_INVALID_UTF". > options |= PCRE2_NO_START_OPTIMIZE; > #endif > --- >8 --- Subject: [PATCH] t7812: test PCRE2 whitespace bug Check if git grep works around the PCRE2 big fixed by their e0c6029 (Fix inifinite loop when a single byte newline is searched in JIT., 2020-05-29), which affects version 10.35 and earlier. Searching for leading whitespace also triggers the endless loop. Set a one-second alarm to abort in case we do get hit by the bug, to avoid having to wait forever for the test result.
