systemd: crash on boot
Last modified: 2011-03-14 22:41:00 UTC
The systemd-18-1.2.4 as shipped in openSUSE 11.4 has a problem of some kind. Mar 10 01:28:47 yaguchi kernel: [ 38.272309] systemd[1]: segfault at 10 ip 080 9c28e sp aff473b0 error 4 in systemd[8048000+b6000] Mar 10 01:28:47 yaguchi kernel: [ 38.292144] systemd[1]: Caught <SEGV>, dumped core as pid 1488. Updating to the copy in openSUSE:Factory (systemd-18-1.4 rpm) seems to have fixed it already.
Created attachment 418505 [details] coredump from systemd Seems to also occur with systemd-20. Would be nice if, upon reception of SIGSEGV, systemd could print something to the console. Right now it's absolutely silent with the exception of /var/log/messages, meaning it appears to just hang until you actually look for the problem.
I can't easily look at the core, I have only x86_64 boxes left, and it does not crash here. Mind to get a backtrace with: gdb /bin/systemd /core $ bt full Thanks!
Here is a new snapshot in Base:system which might fix it: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=systemd.changes&package=systemd&project=Base%3ASystem It includes: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/commit/?id=b8a021c9e276adc9bed5ebfa39c3cab0077113c6
Unfortunately the bug did not happen again - even with v18 - so far, weird. But bug #676786 has the backtrace that I think I saw, and so might be set to resolved too. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 676786 ***
