TL;DR The NTP Code around this is simplified: 1. Complex thing eventually setting ret to next element 2. assert ret!=NULL <-- this is what our bug reports hit
"Complex thing" was completely rewritten in the referred patch set to close the race window that it had. So no matter these NTP bugs refer to slightly other ways of this issue to surface it is very likely the same "race". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ntp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567540 Title: ntpd crashed with SIGABRT (was: ntp crashes everytime the network goes up or down.) Status in NTP: Fix Released Status in ntp package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: ntp crashes every time the network goes up or down while the system is running and also crashes after booting up without network. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-03-12 (26 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" -
