Description Jakub Caban 2012-10-22 13:54:00 UTC
Since like a week (I was using mozilla overlay ebuilds) I got a lot random crashes with firefox. Today I'm trying to investigate problem.

The most common situation for a crash is when I do something via Firebug (especially trying to select by click any element within IFRAME in Facebook app is 100% crash). But they also occur on random websites at random moments. Sometimes even when I simply close tab or segfault at closing firefox.

I've tried with clean .mozilla directory, so no plugins, no profile, not anything. A few random pages visited and... crash.

I've also tried this method firefox-bin 16.0.1 than 15.0.1. Still crashes. Right now I've commented the jemalloc lines in firefox ebuild from mozilla suspecting it can be a reason. Rebuild and again - crash after crash.

I'm not professional programmer so it's difficult for me to obtain more useful data. I've tried gdb-ing:

(gdb) bt
#0  0x00007fffea27f280 in ?? ()
#1  0x00007ffff5d3ec11 in StubEqualityOp<true> (f=...)
    at /var/tmp/paludis/www-client-firefox-16.0.1/work/mozilla-release/js/src/methodjit/StubCalls.cpp:508

#6  0x00007fffffffa810 in ?? ()
#7  0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()

I'd be glad to provide any useful information, but need to be instructed how to obtain them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install firefox
2. Run it
3. wait ;)
Actual Results:  
Segmentation fault - crash

Expected Results:  
Working browser

Comment 2 Jakub Caban 2012-10-25 11:13:49 UTC
Thank you for directing me.

I've compiled firefox with -ggdb.

Backtrace from 100% repetitive segfault when using Firebug (run by just pressing "DOM" tab in element inspector anytime):

I will try to collect more backtraces from different situations soon.

If more debug information (from different packages) are needed just let me know what to rebuild with -ggdb.

This one is 100% repetitive on trying to select element within IFRAME with Firebug:

I put there Firebug related ones as they are easily reproducable. Others occurs at random and I will surely put when any happens.

Both also happens on clean profile with only Firebug installed.

Comment 5 Jory A. Pratt gentoo-dev 2012-10-26 00:07:44 UTC
Unless you test with a completely clean profile no addon at all, we will be unable to assist you, even if firebug is installed and disabled it can still cause a segfault within the browser through js engine.
Comment 6 Jakub Caban 2012-10-26 08:14:34 UTC
I am doing my best collecting data, but I mainly use many add-ons for work, so it's not easy task getting bt from crash on clean profile. Anyway this one is particularly interesting, as it occurs on closing Firefox (completely clean profile - wiped .mozilla):

Comment 7 Jakub Caban 2012-10-28 22:01:56 UTC
After a lot of debugging, I've found the reason for my crash.

Short story:
oxygen-gtk loads libmozjs185.so from seamonkey package during initialization. When the library is loaded, it corrupts JavaScript internals inside of libxul.so from Firefox build. Removing libmozjs185.so works around the bug.

Long story:
In the backtraces I provided previously, all crashes were during an attempt to invoke js::FunctionProxyClass.ext.equality. It's supposed to be always NULL, but it was modified in runtime. Setting a watch point gave me following backtrace:

Hardware watchpoint 2: js::FunctionProxyClass.ext.equality

Old value = (JSEqualityOp) 0x0
New value = (JSEqualityOp) 0x7fffe29b4280 <fun_hasInstance(JSContext*, JSObject*, js::Value const*, int*)>

I'm not sure how to proceed further. Loading an external instance of libmozjs185.so shouldn't have caused this. I guess it's loaded in a really strange way.

Complicated dependences of this bug explain why it's so hard to reproduce.
Comment 8 Vincent Le Ligeour 2012-11-05 22:10:59 UTC
Hi,

I have the exact same problem:
* crash of firefox (16.0.1 and 16.0.2 at least) when javascript is activated
* no crash of firefox when javascript is disabled
* crash of thunderbird (16.0.1)
* no crash of firefox AFAICT (16.0.1-r1) when libmozjs185.so.1.0.0 from spidermonkey package is moved (making libmozjs185.so a dead link)


This seems similar to the openSuse issue : https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=759123

Sounds like this might be linked to the same problem as bug 439148
Comment 10 Jakub Caban 2012-11-06 15:53:34 UTC
Seems very likely as for me crashes also happened on exit (100% reproducible).

version symbols in spidermonkey

After discussing with mozilla dev's, it seems to be that the way to fix issues like these is to ensure the symbols in libxul for FF, TB, etc, and the external libs like libmozjs185 , each have distinct versions so that they can't conflict with one-another.

I've got a patch for spidermonkey and another one (to be attached later) for firefox-16.0.2 (should be generic enough to apply to all future versions), which accomplishes this.  Preliminary testing on my system shows it works; taking the example from bug 439148 , firefox no longer crashes with libproxy is linked against spidemronkey.

I'm a bit weary to just commit these to the tree, though; so if they could be tested more I'd appreciate it.  Fortunately both FF16 and SM185 ebuilds have 'epatch_user' support, which means user testing of these patches is doable without having to overlay the ebuilds.

I patched spidermonkey, firefox and thunderbird (with the firefox patch modified) with no luck.
After each of them rebuild, thunderbird still segfault at start (100% reproducible), firefox still segfault after 1 minute browsing on different sites.

Thunderbird segfault in libxul, but firefox segfault moved to libssl3 and libnspr4.

Hi Vincent -- since I don't see any info about your system on this bug, could you attach your emerge --info and the build.log for firefox, thunderbird, and spidermonkey please?

Also, could you run:

LD_DEBUG="bindings" firefox &>/tmp/bindings.log

..and attach that logfile as well?  I have a sneaking suspicion that there might be a similar conflict between firefox and nspr.

Hi, I attached emerge --info.
About bindings they are too big (6.5M for firefox to reproduce, 1.9M for thunderbird).

I've uploaded them both :
- http://vincent.leligeour.free.fr/bindings_firefox.log
- http://vincent.leligeour.free.fr/bindings_thunderbird.log

About build log, should I redirect output of a build, or is there a way not to destroy the build.log on successful build ?
Comment 17 Vincent Le Ligeour 2012-11-11 14:03:24 UTC
mail-client/thunderbird-10.0.9 just works perfectly and does not segfault at start.

FEATURES="keeptemp" should do it.


I'm not sure what's going on with Firefox.  For Thunderbird, though, I believe the issue has to do with the following:

binding file /usr/lib64/thunderbird/extensions/{e2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103}/components/libcalbasecomps.so [0] to /usr/lib64/thunderbird/libxul.so [0]: normal symbol `_Z14js_DateIsValidP9JSContextP8JSObject'

..which I expect is a calendar extension?  Perhaps if that can be disabled or removed, Thunderbird will start acting normally again?
