** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1699772 linux-image-4.10.0-24-generic, linux-image-4.8.0-56-generic, linux-image-4.4.0-81-generic, linux-image-3.13.0-121-generic Regression: many user-space apps crashing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1700270 Title: Stack Clash fix breaks JVM when launched from C Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have tested only with linux 4.10.0-24-generic on amd64. The attached repro case: - compiles a java class - compiles a C program that initialises the JVM and calls a static method from the java class - launch the compiled C program. Expected result: the c program should execute the Java method and print some numbers in the terminal Actual result: the c program segfaults while initialising the JVM reverting to linux 4.10.0-22-generic amd64 fixes the problem. Since the only change in the changelog is the Stack Clash fix and since I remember reading that the JVM does tricky stuff with the stack, this is a natural culprit. It touches any program that initialises a JVM (so for instance Java bindings in Postgresql or Java applets in firefox although the latter have been deprecated and are only supported in firefox ESR now). I attach the repro-case. The issue happens with both openjdk-8-jdk from the repository and the standard jdk 8 from oracle.
