I just tried running the
alloc
's tests withmiri-test-libstd
with field retagging enabled. The test suite eventually hangs on a few tests which pass around ZSTs that have a lot of fields.I don't really know how to test this effectively. The test passes, but if you remove this fast-path it effectively just hangs the interpreter. And since it hangs inside a step, there's no hope for doing some kind of timeout within the test.
