Hi vinurs, 

Thank you for your detailed report! This looks very similar to bug#72863, which we determined to be a tree-sitter bug. In both that bug and this, ts_parser_parse falls into an inf loop.

Your test file also uncovered another Emacs bug. I need fix this ASAP (emacs 30 pre-release is already out 😬). Once that’s fixed I’ll check if the hang is due to the same tree-sitter bug.

Yuan
