Package: src:linux
Version: 6.5.13-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I am running Debian testing in a Parallels VM (6 cores, 8GB memory)
running on Macbook Air M2 15" (10 cores, 24GB memory). gcc13 is
sig faulting when building xfsprogs or the Linux kernel when using make -j6.
Building xfsprogs using make -j2 doesn't crash. It crashes both using
Debian testing or a Debian bookworm chroot. The fact that it crashes
less often when the system is more lightly loaded, and the gcc crash was
not deterministic; that is, if I rerun the make, gcc will crash on a
*different* source file, aroused my suspicions.
Hence, I decided to try installing linux-image-6.6.9-arm64 from Debian
unstable. This made the problem go away. The fact that there is some
kind of non-determinstic userspace program (gcc13's cc1) which is
resolved when using the 6.6.9 LTS kernel may mean that there is some
kind of issue with the mm subsystem under memory pressure, or with the
swap codepath, etc. So this may be causing some other kinds of
potential silent data corruption with 6.5.13 when running under load.
(No, it's not the ext4 corruption issue, since (a) that's not applicable
to 6.5.13, and (b) that corruption issue involved O_SYNC / O_DIRECT
writes when extending the file, and gcc doesn't use either O_SYNC or
O_DIRECT writes. This might be an issue with SQL Server, but not gcc,
mysql, nor postgres.)
I normally wouldn't bother filing a bug, but the Debian testing's kernel
is currently being blocked by a transition, and I don't know how long
it's going to take to resolve the transition issue. Also, this bug may
be affecting more people than just me, so I figured it would be good to
give a heads up, especially since whatever the transition bug might
happen to be (I don't pretend to understand it, and I wasn't able to
find any information after doing some web serches), I didn't have any
problem installing a newer kernel from sid.
-- Package-specific info:
** Kernel log: boot messages should be attached
I don't have it handy since journald has a non-persistent boot. If you
really want it, though, I can boot back to the 6.5 kernel and get it
extracted out.
