Re: systemd segfault

Only what you've just told us.

Any chance you have bad RAM? Try running a memtest86+ test for several passes.

Re: systemd segfault

I too have started hitting systemd segfaults. Probably related:

Re: systemd segfault

Lennart mentioned that it's "fixed in git" but didn't provide a commit hash. sad

I'm sifting through the commits in systemd after v210. So far this is the only one that looks likely to be the fix:

commit a1937e679f76758635d295287398abe526de2522
Author: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@gmail.com>
Date:   Tue Feb 25 12:20:25 2014 +0100

    login: fix pos-array allocation

    GREEDY_REALLOC takes a pointer to the real size, not the array-width as
    argument. Therefore, our array is currently way to small to keep the seat
    positions.

    Introduce GREEDY_REALLOC0_T() as typed version of GREEDY_REALLOC and store
    the array-width instead of array-size.

Re: systemd segfault

Same for me with systemd 210-2:

[45779.228627] systemd[1]: segfault at 65757165 ip 080e04fa sp bfa070b0 error 4 in systemd[8048000+f6000]

I can only reboot with:

sync && reboot -f

Re: systemd segfault

Does this recur after rebooting for people?

Re: systemd segfault

Please try systemd 210-3, currently in [testing]. It applies a number of fixes from upstream.

It happened to me twice, therefore once after a reboot.

Ok, I updated to 210-3 and have a look.
