Segfaults and Apport

2016-06-29 Thread Tyler Petersen
Hello everyone, 

I am having some issues collecting crashed from segfaults. I was told to come 
here after the ubuntu-server mailing list couldn't help me. I am seeing 
segfaults in mdadm constantly. We are running ubuntu-server 14.04 with 
3.13.0-88-generic kernal and mdadm version 3.2.5-5ubuntu4.3. Here is the error 
we are seeing: "[3435271.687113] mdadm[7968]: segfault at 8 ip 7f995fe67d16 
sp 7fffd085c668 error 4 in libc-2.23.so[7f995fddd000+1c]". We enabled 
apport to try and pick up the error/crash information but we then see this 
message in dmesg: "[3435272.212580] Core dump to |/usr/share/apport/apport 
27973 
11 0 7976 pipe failed". There is also no log for apport in "/var/log/apport" 
and 
there is nothing in "/var/crash". Any help or ideas on where to start would be 
appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Tyler

isn't x32 targeted for these devices? looks like people do the same in the ARM
universe with aarch64ilp32.

Let's also factor in flavors like Lubuntu that aim to use very minimal
resources and that have the ability to run with ~ 300 MB of RAM on an
i386 machine. While I understand modern applications are removing i386
support, we have a nice application base for Lubuntu for both LXDE and
LXQt that provides a minimal but yet functional desktop environment and
we have people to maintain these applications.


That is probably a reasonable solution. I don't use these old machines
as GP computers and usually have just a command line login and the 
ability

to do a remote xterm. A logger does not need (in fact counter-indicates)
a fancy graphic human interface. CLI is what matters.

In the case of the i386 VM's, it's a matter of qemu/kvm continuing their
support.

Greetings,

Let's also factor in flavors like Lubuntu that aim to use very minimal
resources and that have the ability to run with ~ 300 MB of RAM on an
i386 machine. While I understand modern applications are removing i386
support, we have a nice application base for Lubuntu for both LXDE and
LXQt that provides a minimal but yet functional desktop environment and
we have people to maintain these applications.

So I'm sort of going with what Mark is saying. Please also factor this
in the discussion.

Folks, I think we need to understand whether i386 won't be widely used
for very small IoT devices and hence be important for developers
targeting those. I accept i386 i no longer relevant for PC's and
laptops, but I would not be surprised if 32-bit x86 is used in small
'embedded' environments. Please factor this in to the discussion, and
let's circle back to review once there is an assessment that includes
that insight.
