> [herrtimson] I wrote an email to Chris Coulson, asking for some assistance with the cflags. Hopefully he'll read it.
Thanks. I flagged him on #ubuntu-devel IRC as well. Hopefully we'll get his attention this time. > > [Chituc] Can you check if the firefox 57.04 trusty , the working one shows "-march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfpv3-d16" in about:buildconfig ? > [Chris] It’s not showing those flags in about:buildconfig I don't think this matters, because Firefox 57 Trusty still has the Skia crash for most armhf users. The main difference between Firefox 57 and 58/59 is that in Firefox 57 it's possible to disable Skia via prefs.js, but otherwise the misaligned instruction bug is still there. > it fixes freebsd only, but still it might be helpfull to see what they changed. The majority of that patch deals with atomics, compare-and-swap, and memory barriers, although might be worth noticing that it does add -march=armv7-a > [Chituc] Builing on xenial did nto worked but a build in trusty have great chances to work . Right, but important to note that building on Bionic will likely work too. That point may be helpful in getting the Ubuntu team to prioritize. > CFLAGS="-march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfpv3-d16" In case anyone is testing this soon, be sure to set both CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS. SkJumper_generated.S is assembly and I'm not sure which of the two flag sets gets passed, but the Skia project is largely C++. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1711337 Title: Firefox crashes at start on armv7L after 55.0.1 update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1711337/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
