Hi, I'm trying to figure out why pylucene fails to build on Debian on a lot of architectures:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=pylucene I've tried to debug it as much as possible and found that JCC crashes inside native initVM call just inside JNI_CreateJavaVM. Sometimes under certain conditions it works, but doesn't work when called from debian package build script. I've found that crash depends on number and content of environment variables or command-line options (even if I commented out access to sys.argv and os.environ). Finally I've figured out that I don't need JCC python code at all to reproduce it and got followed: echo 'import jcc; jcc.initVM()' | python2.7 - 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 +0123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 +1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901 +2345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012 +3456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123 +4567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901 NATIVE: initVM NATIVE: initVM: 1 NATIVE: initVM: 3 NATIVE: initVM: 4 NATIVE: initVM: 6 NATIVE: initVM: 7!!! NATIVE: initVM: 7. Calling JNI_CreateJavaVM Segmentation fault [ NATIVE: lines are just printf() calls I've added to native initVM function ] The magic happens in arguments. Just removing last '1' from last arg fixes crash for me. Or just remove one symbol from any environment variables. Unfortunately it crashes such way that I can't get call stack. ltrace suggests me that crash happens just after reading /proc/self/maps file. It's probably pthread_getattr_np() function. I was trying to debug it step-by-step but with no luck for now (it works if I'm just stepping after breaking at pthread_getattr_np call I've also tried to remove all logic from initVM() and just copy/paste JNI_CreateJavaVM usage from docs: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/jni/spec/invocation.html and it still crashes. Playing with -Xmx -Xms, -Xss doesn't help at all. Any suggestions about cause of this and possible solution? -- WBR, Dmitry
