Hi, I'm new to FreeBSD and I'm running into a lot of core dumps (mainly from Xorg, but also from vim, firefox, ...). That's why I asked on freebsd-questions:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2015-June/266138.html https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2015-June/266141.html The last Xorg crash was less than 2h ago. :( It looks like that there is a missing check for NULL in lib/libkse/thread/thr_spec.c (line 211-214): pthread = _get_curthread(); /* Check if there is specific data: */ if (pthread->specific != NULL && (unsigned int)key < PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX) { If pthread is NULL it will core dump. So maybe something like this would help: if (pthread != NULL && pthread->specific != NULL && (unsigned int)key < PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX) { But as I'm said, I'm new to FreeBSD I can't evaluate it yet. I'm running the most recent stable: % uname -a FreeBSD andre 10.1-RELEASE-p10 FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE-p10 #0: Wed May 13 06:54:13 UTC 2015 I haven't compiled the base system so far. Maybe a more experienced FreeBSD guy can verify this and decide if it makes any sense or if I have to dig any deeper into it. Sincerely yours Andre. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
