File: backtrace
Thanks for report, I'm able to reproduce the crash. Will check what's wrong there. Hi, See also http://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=17821&group_id=9 ... I opened the bug report there(= original developer's source) before abrt prompted be to file a bug report also on bugzilla ;-) I have not yet been able to follow schilys suggestion with the source version 2010-12-24, though ... Thanks for submitting the bug report upstream ... I'll try latest upstream version next week ... It's hard to follow Joerg's versions - as the mailing lists are dead and there is no public scm afaik ... ...anyway this may be related to glibc/gcc in Fedora - as Solaris has older versions - and there were already some segfaults in star caused by changes (in fact fixes) in glibc. Upstream fixed the issue, star with multivol option no longer segfaults on my machine, built as star-1.5.1-6.fc15 in Rawhide. star-1.5.1-5.fc14 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 14. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/star-1.5.1-5.fc14 FWIW, Joerg Schilling confirmed a bug in his code that was apparently undiscovered since 2003 ;-) "The problem was caused by a typo in the code that has been triggered by the unusual memory layout on Linux and for this reason was hard to find" - https://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=17821&group_id=9 The fix that he made available at berlios works on my system but I'll wait until the "official" fix comes in through the F14 updates. Are the two bugfixes identical? Yep, these bugfixes are identical (except missing comments in code in the Fedora patch). star-1.5.1-5.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update star'. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/star-1.5.1-5.fc14 Installed as per your instructions - it seems that the bug is squashed :-) (just for the record - I realised this morning that bugzilla indicates the datetime stamps of postings by default in EST, that's why I did not recognize that your bugfix came *after* Joerg Schilling's - berlios display MEZ by default ;-) star-1.5.1-5.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
abrt version: 1.1.14 architecture: i686 Attached file: backtrace cmdline: /usr/bin/star -f /dev/null -multivol -C / -cv /home/jha/temp/ component: star crash_function: movetcb executable: /usr/bin/star kernel: 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.i686.PAE package: star-1.5.1-4.fc14.1 rating: 4 reason: Process /usr/bin/star was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) release: Fedora release 14 (Laughlin) time: 1293541210 uid: 500 comment ----- The system is a stock Fedora 14 with Kernel 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.i686.PAE. star --version star: star 1.5.1 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu) Options: acl find fflags remote Linux-xattr How to reproduce ----- It would appear that the option "-multivol" causes star to crash on Fedora 14. The following test puts data into /dev/null, but behavior is exactly same if I use a "real" tape (-f /dev/nst0): 1. /usr/bin/star -f /dev/null -C / -cv -multivol /home/jha/temp/ Segmentation fault (core dumped) 2. Using the same command without -multivol performs flawlessly: /usr/bin/star -f /dev/null -C / -cv /home/jha/temp/ {rumble, rumble} /usr/bin/star: 32236 blocks + 0 bytes (total of 330096640 bytes = 322360.00k). Any ideas?
