fatal error: non-Go code set up signal handler without SA_ONSTACK flag

[cdevienne]

Using go-libreofficekit I have this error message coming up:

signal 23 received but handler not on signal stack
fatal error: non-Go code set up signal handler without SA_ONSTACK flag

runtime stack:
runtime: unexpected return pc for runtime.sigtramp called from 0x7f25a7ad1228
stack: frame={sp:0xc000078ed8, fp:0xc000078f30} stack=[0xc000070e08,0xc000079208)

To avoid it I had to recompile libreoffice with the following patch:

diff --git a/sal/osl/unx/signal.cxx b/sal/osl/unx/signal.cxx
index 79721def6c5e..0694fc3c7b26 100644

+    act.sa_flags = SA_RESTART | SA_SIGINFO | SA_ONSTACK;
 
     sigfillset(&(act.sa_mask));

I will attempt to report the problem to the libreoffice project but meanwhile we have a workaround.

I reported the issue to the libreoffice project: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140189

Not ideal, but a workaround I've used is to use Go 1.13.

1.14+ seems to throw this error

any new??

[cdevienne]

The issue in the libreoffice bugtracker is still "UNCONFIRMED", so for now we still use our recompiled libreoffice (and it works well).

I just changed the bug status to "NEW", as I am not the only one to have the issue (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport/fr#Status)

Anyone come up with other choices besides compiling their own libreoffice? I'd like to be able to use Go Modules to vendor packages, and need to make it up to 1.14
