This is fixed by git commit 1440dbed544a76ee3b876cb573b5110211e798bb ________________________________ From: David Welch Sent: 29 March 2021 02:39 To: bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org Subject: 28.0.50; Infinite loop in cc-mode/isearch Reproduction: Run: emacs -Q ccmode-1.cpp Enter: C-S (isearch) Enter: yyyyI emacs hangs at this point. It seems to be very dependent on the number of lines displayed in the frame. It reproduces for me at fullscreen (54 lines) but not in a smaller window. The backtrace at the hang is:- c-looking-at-inexpr-block(538 nil t) c-beginning-of-statement-1(538 nil t) c-beginning-of-decl-1(538) font-lock-fontify-keywords-region(2003 2126 nil) font-lock-default-fontify-region(2003 2126 nil) funcall(font-lock-default-fontify-region 2003 2126 nil) c-font-lock-fontify-region(2024 2126 nil) font-lock-fontify-region(2024 2126) #f(compiled-function (fun) #)(font-lock-fontify-region) run-hook-wrapped(#f(compiled-function (fun) #) font-lock-fontify-region) jit-lock--run-functions(2024 2126) jit-lock-fontify-now(2024 2524) jit-lock-function(2024) redisplay_internal\ \(C\ function\)() redisplay() sit-for(0) isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop() isearch-update() isearch-search-and-update() isearch-process-search-string("I" "I") isearch-process-search-char(73 1) isearch-printing-char(73 1) funcall-interactively(isearch-printing-char 73 1) call-interactively(isearch-printing-char nil nil) command-execute(isearch-printing-char) The loop is in this part of c-looking-at-inexpr-block ;; Search for a C++11 "->" which suggests a lambda declaration.
