I still can't find the exact cause even with the debug build. But I see this in the hosts syslog

kernel: [ 864.637068] EXT4-fs (sdb1): Unaligned AIO/DIO on inode 23068695 by AioMgr0-N; performance will be poor. kernel: [ 907.647546] VirtualBox[3025]: segfault at 10 ip 00007ffe574ede84 sp 00007fff617f1610 error 4 in libpthread-2.15.so[7ffe574e4000+18000]

All that is needed to trigger this segfault is to select choose a virtual cd in the devices menu.

This happens on two separate (Debian based) systems the laptop was built using deb build and the main PC as a run file install.

One more thing. I can revert back to r44844 and the problem disappears. But wait it gets better.
After the latest today r44929 saved state even causes an abort.

OK. It's more of a heads up any way because usually when I see these issues there is a gremlin lurking somewhere.

If I locate it I will send along the cause.

It happens the second I click on select CD in the device menu.

I must admit that I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer with core
dumps. The dump is 7MB tar'ed (217.5MB) each.

I can send it to you if you like.
The core won't help me much since you're running your own builds, and I
wouldn't have the matching debug info.

Did you install the ...-dbg package? Then you should get much more out
of gdb than just some hex values.

I seem to have an issue that I can't put my finger on. With the latest
builds from SVN r44872&  r44885 if I try to select a CD/DVD image to the
"running" guest the guest immediately aborts. I can remove an already
attached CD/DVD image with no issues. I can't seem to find the trigger
that is causing this issue. Anyway I thought you should know.
How about enabling core dumps and looking where it crashes? I tried a
few CD unmount/mount combinations, and couldn't trigger any problems,
neither in VBoxSVC nor in the GUI.

Linux host guest does not matter.
