Hello,

so, here we are again:
Last year I had troubles with icedtea-bin on my Pentium-M-based ThinkPad. I created these bugs and they were resolved (Thanks again!):
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647954
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668762
But now the new stable version of icedtea-bin gives me the same errors again and I think it might be because of the same reasons.

So, the current configuration is:
System is 32bit --> x86
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.19.14
sys-devel/gcc-7.3.0-r3
dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.10.0

When I want to start an java application - even if it was just 'java -version' the message is:

#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  Internal Error (os_linux_x86.cpp:291), pid=8260, tid=0x871ffb40

# Distribution: Gentoo Base System release 2.6, package Gentoo icedtea-3.10.0
# Failed to write core dump. Core dumps have been disabled. To enable core dumping, try "ulimit -c unlimited" before starting Java again

Abgebrochen

I add as attachments:
emerge --info dev-java/icedtea-bin
hs_err_pid8260.log

If there's more information needed, please tell me. I'd be glad if I could provide it.

Greetings,
Andy

P.S.: Unfortunately I need this package and to be able to keep on working I wanted to change temporarily back to dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.9.0-r1 but the ebuild is gone :(

hi,thanks for catching this.

looks like I've built tarballs without -mincoming-stack-boundary=2
I can almost swear it was there but it's not now. Probably missed it on bump.

I'll try to recreate tarball and upload a fixed one.

[Comment 3 Georgy Yakovlev 2019-02-03 11:47:28 UTC]

you can get the old ebuild here, and put it into overlay to get java working meanwhile.

the distfiles are still available here if you deleted them.

please try new icedtea-bin-3.10.0-r1, it contains the workaround again.
