Segmentation faults associated with libweather(?)

Open cjk opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

After a recent update I'm beginning to see sporadic seg-faults, which look like this:

Mar 16 10:20:13 kernel: shaman[6923]: segfault at 10 ip 00007f111e2a7683 sp 00007fff5b8aaa80 error 4 in libweather.so[7f111e2a5000+3000]
Mar 16 10:20:13 systemd-coredump[6932]: Process 6923 (shaman) of user 1000 dumped core.

No idea why this is happening. Is there something I can do on my side to improve stability (again)?

I will look into this in more depth and see if I can reproduce it. Can you tell me how you invoked shaman and some basic details of your system? And, in the meantime, can you try editing the Tuprules.tup to remove the -O2, recompiling and then getting a backtrace with gdb?

However, with the increased visibility that shaman has received and with a mounting list of features that I would like to see, I believe we are fast approaching a moment where I again rewrite it from the ground up. That would also offer me the chance to make sure things are as stable as possible and to significantly update the test suite so it has much wider coverage.
