Hello,

default/linux/amd64/17.1/systemd

Using latest ~amd64 as of posting with GentooLTO. 
After signing in (which works perfectly) Teams crashes with a white screen and proceeds to restart itself where it enters a crash loop unless the process is killed. Using nvidia vulkan drivers, 440.66.15

dmesg is filled with errors such as:

[   64.643204] SGI_video_sync[3648]: segfault at e6 ip 000055712398af92 sp 00007f0f025faa80 error 6 in teams[557120ea7000+4bf6000]

Teams does not produce any terminal output indicating the issue. Reinstallation nor cleaing cache/config changes the outcome. emerge --info attached

Thanks

It does the same thing for me as well since Friday 19th, but I'm on xf86-video-ati.

I don't get the SGI_video_sync message, but I do get all other symptoms you show.

In dmesg:

Could it be mesa-20.1?

Scratch that, I got mesa 20.1 ten days ago, but teams started misbehaving only last friday...

Comment 4 Massimo Burcheri 2020-06-22 12:32:29 UTC
After downgrading to media-video/ffmpeg-4.2.3, teams works again.
Comment 5 Paolo Pedroni 2020-06-22 12:33:56 UTC
I think the culprit is media-video/ffmpeg-4.3

I rolled back to 4.2.3 and teams started working again.
Comment 6 James Beddek 2020-06-22 20:58:30 UTC
Rolling back ffmpeg works for me too. Thanks for the suggestion
Comment 7 Massimo Burcheri 2020-06-23 06:53:23 UTC
Lacking an upstream $MS bugtracker and because they just have a teams user forum, I forwarded the information within the application (Feedback) to $MS.

teams-use-builtin-ffmpeg-by-default.patch

This is a patch I use in my overlay which makes the ebuild use the built-in ffmpeg by default and fixes this issue. Note that this is tested with the latest version of teams (1.3.00.16851), but should work with the old version currently in the tree.
Comment 10 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2020-07-10 09:43:48 UTC
Has this been reported upstream?

(In reply to Ulrich Müller from comment #10)
> Has this been reported upstream?

There is no upstream bug tracker. Teams comes with a bundled libffmpeg.so and the problem here only arises because Gentoo unbundles it. I'm not a lawyer, but I think unbundling here is also questionable because some codecs require a license, e.g. H.264.

Certainly Microsoft must have some sort of a ticket system?

I see four open security bugs for ffmpeg in Gentoo Bugzilla, and a good guess is that the bundled lib is affected by all of them (unless proven otherwise, feel free to look into the source code). So IMHO installing it isn't an option.
Comment 13 Joakim Tjernlund 2020-07-20 10:58:18 UTC
There is a media-video/ffmpeg-4.3.1 now(not in tree yet)
Anyone tested if that one works?

Most likely it doesn't work too, because ffmpeg-4.3 support is scheduled for Chrome/Chromium-86 atm.
Comment 15 Sergey Ilinykh 2020-07-28 17:12:46 UTC
@Denis_Dupeyron, how can I add your overlay via layman?
Comment 16 deim 2020-09-16 08:38:16 UTC
patch doesn't work for me - teams-1.3.00.16851 application works but no video input - web version works OK.
Comment 17 Sven Eden 2020-09-17 06:23:05 UTC
Both unbundling ffmpeg and/or the bundled mesa EGL/GLES libs can crash ms-teams. (Well, currently they absolutely will!)

We have experimented with this in my overlay "seden" via layman and have put our experience into app-office/teams and app-office/teams-insiders. The ebuilds allow to use system-ffmpeg and system-mesa, but both flags have a hint in metadata.xml that activating them might crash the app.

I am using ms teams 1.3.00.16851 on a daily basis since june, 25th without any issues with both flags disabled.

Still using using system mesa and works for me but I am using mesa-20.0.x
Which mesa versions crash teams for you?

mesa-20.1.7 (I always mask RCs)

However, the current teams version is from june, and a new one should be out soon. Hopefully it will be compatible to newer ffmpeg and mesa.
Comment 20 Stephan Hartmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-10-01 15:56:23 UTC
@dilfridge

chromium-86 goes stable beginning of next week (99.9% sure it is security relevant) which requires >=media-video/ffmpeg-4.3. Can you please use bundled libffmpeg.so here until new version of net-im/teams is available that works with >=media-video/ffmpeg.4.3?
Comment 21 Sven Eden 2020-10-02 07:47:59 UTC
I have had good experience with my own ebuild
  app-office/teams-insiders-1.3.00.25560::seden
which works rock solid using media-libs/mesa-20.1.8 and media-video/ffmpeg-4.2.4.

However, this newest version of MS Teams still does not work with >=media-video/ffmpeg-4.3, that was the first thing I tested, so this new ebuild blocks newer ffmpeg.

Maybe it would be an idea to put in USE flags for system-ffmpeg and system-mesa like we did, so users can decide for themselves whether to unbundle ffmpeg and/or mesa upon their own discretion.

If you must have >=media-video/ffmpeg-4.3 as a dependency for something else, then unbundling it in MS Teams is not the way to go. Make it optional and everything will be fine.
Comment 22 Geoff Leach 2020-10-07 12:01:53 UTC
re comment #21

I found same, using your ebuild, neither system-ffmpeg or system-mesa worked, separately or together, disabling both was necessary.

BTW, without digressing the bug, is Teams actually open source, i.e. can it be built from what MS makes available? I've looked and seems not, but would like if someone can confirm. If possible to build maybe system-ffmpeg can be gotten to work.

Teams is not open source, but you can built libffmpeg.so from Chromium tarballs, because Teams is just a Chrome/Chromium webapp.
Comment 24 Joakim Tjernlund 2020-10-07 17:32:24 UTC
This little ffmpeg-4.3.1 patch makes Teams work for me:

     max_alloc_size = max;
 }


ffmpeg changed av_max_alloc(0) to actually mean 0
Comment 25 Geoff Leach 2020-10-08 07:25:42 UTC
re comment 24

that patch for mem.c works for me too, teams 1.3.00.25560, ffmpeg-4.3.1, using seven's ebuild, but with ffmpeg  version constraint 

BDEPEND="
	system-ffmpeg? ( media-video/ffmpeg[chromium] )
	system-mesa? ( media-libs/mesa[egl,gles2] )
"


app-office/teams-insiders-1.3.00.25560::gl  USE="system-ffmpeg -system-mesa

(haven't tried system-mesa)
Comment 26 Paolo Pedroni 2020-10-08 10:40:01 UTC
The patch works for me as well with "stock" net-im/teams-1.3.00.16851-r2 from portage, using 'emerge --nodeps ffmpeg'.

Can we add it to ffmpeg-4.3.1 and drop the blocker in net-im/teams?
Comment 27 Geoff Leach 2020-10-09 10:26:38 UTC
Also tested teams 1.3.00.25560 using essentially sven's ebuild but with ffmpeg and mesa version checks removed, and with the ffmpeg fix. Long call with multiple participants, although mostly audio, but with outgoing video. system-mesa (20.2) and system-ffmpeg (4.3.1). 

Teams still consumes my machine though, even with this latest version. Even when there's no video! More than zoom or duo. Secondary issue.
