If you can get a backtrace that would be helpful.

Getting Xorg to dump a core file is described in

Well, that was an early celebration.
The problem occured again; guess I just had luck when I verified it
earlier.

Same issue: X crashes and I have to restart it several times until I
get a stable session.

What I noticed is that one crash terminated X with:
[26.914] (EE) Received signal 6 sent by process 0, uid 0
[26.914] (EE) 
Fatal server error:
[26.914] (EE) Caught signal 6 (Abort trap). Server aborting

Whereas the next crash was:
[   262.977] (EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x10d7c4b2d000
[   262.977] (EE) 
Fatal server error:
[   262.977] (EE) Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting

Both Xorg.log and xorg.conf below.

I am happy to report that with the latest snapshot (20.3.) the
crashing problem seems to be gone.

(The duplicate cursor sprite effect when starting Firefox or Gimp is
still there, but it has no negative effect otherwise.)

Bad wording from my side I guess... I am not compiling -current; I use
snapshots. And when I update (not on a regular base) to the newest
snapshot, I do a full fresh install using a shell script that does all
the additional configuration work for me.

So the problem is not a left-over from an upgrade operation.

kind regards,
Robert

How long since you did an update before you started having problems? I
had a similar situation some time ago on one of my current- machines
that I hadn't updated in a long time.

Check the upgrade guides:
https://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade62.html
https://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade61.html
And so on. And/or install sysclean(1) and have a look at its output.

Between upgrades I usually run:

# pkg_delete -[n]a

(-n being dry mode to see any changes without actually removing things.)

You may also take a look at pkg_check but read the man page first.

Re: X server keeps crashing in current/amd64

[Robert]

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for the quick response!
I will test it as soon as a new snapshot becomes available.

I see that the changes are related to the cursor sprite - maybe this
will even fix the effect that currently the mouse cursor gets
temporarily duplicated on both screens during certain actions (such as
starting Firefox).

regards,
Robert

I see you have multiple screens in your Xorg log.

I've just committed an update to xf86-video-ati 18.0.1 which
mentions fixing a crash with multiple screens.

https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-announce/2018-March/002884.html

* The Xorg process could crash when multiple primary screens are
  configured in xorg.conf.

X server keeps crashing in current/amd64

[Robert]

Hi,

Since about two weeks the X server keeps crashing (segfault) most of the
time when I start it (through xenodm).
I have to restart it (rcctl restart xenodm) about 5-10 times
until I get an (xfce) session that stays stable. 

I reinstalled today with the latest current/amd64, and now this issue became
worse: In addition, even when I get a stable session, it crashes as
soon as I do some actions, such as moving the mouse for a couple of
seconds or starting Firefox.

Xorg.log says (from various such occurences):
(EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x64bfcd81018
(EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x17e082969018
(EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x78e6159b000

Any ideas / recommendations on how to debug or fix this?
(dmesg / xorg log below)

Installing 6.2/amd64 removes the issue, so I don't think it's a hardware 
problem.

If it is relevant, this is an AMD Verde GPU, where the driver uses
software rendering. Also, I disabled xhci in the kernel (using config) due to 
https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=143442925331480 .

regards,
Robert
