if i saw the crqashes - they would be fixerd. i don't see the,. i'm on arch most of the time (debian sid on arm64 some of tyhe time). i use it all day, every day - videos, browsers, email clients... and crashes essentuially dopn't happen. you have some kind of corner case, and to find it it needs to be debnugged. that means catching information that is useful to debug with. valgrind. asan. doesn't matter - something. > > > >> Thread 1 (Thread 0x7f45cdd38980 (LWP 25220) "enlightenment"): > >> #0 0x00007f45cf2a8d32 in __libc_pause () at > >> ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pause.c:29 > >> sc_ret = -514 > >> sc_cancel_oldtype = 0 > >> #1 0x000055f6f6bdd94c in e_alert_show () at ../src/bin/e_alert.c:43 > >> #2 0x000055f6f6b5d271 in _e_crash () at ../src/bin/e_signals.c:81 > >> #3 0x000055f6f6b5d292 in e_sigseg_act (x=11, info=0x7ffebe860bb0, > >> data=0x7ffebe860a80) at ../src/bin/e_signals.c:91 > >> #4 0x00007f45cf211050 in <signal handler called> () at > >> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 > >> #5 eet_write_cipher (ef=0x55f6f89fb660, name=0x55f6f6be72d4 "config", > >> data=0x55f6f9a34d70, size=58736, comp=11, cipher_key=0x0) at > >> ../src/lib/eet/eet_lib.c:2479 > >> in = 0x55f6f87cb200 > >> efn = 0x178c07ed64647500 > >> exists_already = 0 > >> hash = 46 > >> #6 0x00007f45d02c7c01 in eet_data_write_cipher (ef=0x55f6f89fb660, > >> edd=0x55f6f82c7160, name=0x55f6f6be72d4 "config", cipher_key=0x0, > >> data=0x55f6f82dc9a0, comp=11) at ../src/lib/eet/eet_data.c:2410 > >> ed = 0x55f6f89d56d0 > >> data_enc = 0x55f6f9a34d70 > >> size = 58736 > >> val = 32766 > >> __func__ = "eet_data_write_cipher" > >> #7 0x00007f45d02c7c6f in eet_data_write (ef=0x55f6f89fb660, > >> edd=0x55f6f82c7160, name=0x55f6f6be72d4 "config", data=0x55f6f82dc9a0, > >> comp=11) at ../src/lib/eet/eet_data.c:2422 > >> #8 0x000055f6f6a6a9bf in e_config_domain_save (domain=0x55f6f6be98c8 > >> "e", edd=0x55f6f82c7160, data=0x55f6f82dc9a0) at > >> ../src/bin/e_config.c:2328 > >> ef = 0x55f6f89fb660 > >> buf = "/home/jose/.e/e/config/standard/e.cfg", '\000' > >> <repeats > >> 379 times>... > >> buf2 = > >> "/home/jose/.e/e/config/standard/e.cfg.tmp\0002\320E\177\000\000firefox", > >> '\000' <repeats 745 times>... > >> ok = 0 > >> len = 37 > >> len2 = 1 > ... > >> if you are willing to compile efl and by hand you could try asan > >> instead of > >> valgrind. it's much much faster at runtime (it's usable actually). > > During compiling of some larger programs, I have read the logs where > they utilize 'asan' as some sort of built-in testing framework prior to > producing their binaries.

And this happens also, as I mentioned > before, while using latest Firefox/Chrome and going to YouTube site and > playing videos. you are capable of rebuild efl and e then i would guess. take a look at: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=efl-git-asan https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=enlightenment-git-asan it's literally just passing in -Db_sanitize=address as a meson config option to build with asan (otherwise build as normal). then any asan outpuit will be in ~/.e-log.log (and previous login session in ~/.e-log.log.old) i need to get a backtrace to where the free is happening precisely and then some idea of where the previous real free was so i can hope to know what is going on and why. it might be it;'s a bug that has been fixed that was possibly rare buty for some reason is common for you. without more information, i can't say. i need the info. > -- > Best Professional Regards. > > -- > Jose R R > http://metztli.it > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Download Metztli Reiser4: Debian Bookworm w/ Linux 5.17.13-1 AMD64 > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > feats ZSTD compression https://sf.net/projects/metztli-reiser4/ > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Official current Reiser4 resources: https://reiser4.wiki.kernel.org/ > -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- Carsten Haitzler - ras...@rasterman.com _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
