Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-01-08 16:52:22] cmb@php.net Is that still an issue with any of the actively supported PHP versions[1]? [1] <https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-01-25 18:32:54] ramsey@php.net I was able to get a core dump without using --enable-debug. The segmentation fault, as I said earlier, occurs when generating phar.php towards the end of the make process. Here is my full terminal output when using gdb to show the backtrace: root@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:/php-src/php-7.0.2# gdb /php-src/php-7.0.2/sapi/cli/php qemu_php_20160125-182638_24981.core GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.1-debian Copyright (C) 2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

If I build PHP 7.0.2 with --enable-debug, it builds perfectly fine with no segmentation fault. All other parameters of my build script remain the same. If I build PHP 7.0.2 without --enable-debug, I get the segmentation fault. I've updated my Gist to include the --enable-debug config option, but at this point, I'm not sure how to generate a backtrace, if it builds fine with --enable-debug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-01-25 04:15:00] laruence@php.net Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To find out how to generate a backtrace, please read http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php for *NIX and http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace-win32.php for Win32 Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-01-23 23:32:37] ramsey@php.net Description: ------------ I am encountering a segmentation fault when attempting to build PHP 7.0.2 in a chroot jail that is using QEMU to emulate a MIPS architecture. Using the same script with identical settings and configuration, I am able to build PHP 5.4.45, 5.5.31, and 5.6.17 without any segmentation faults. The segmentation fault occurs toward the end of the make command, immediately after the "Generating phar.php" line (see "Actual result" below for error output). ---------- For those wondering why I am building PHP in an emulated MIPS environment: I am creating Docker images on which Travis CI runs tests for my ramsey/uuid library. I want to ensure consistent generation of UUIDs on 64-bit, 32-bit, little-endian, and big-endian systems. If interested, see the following: * https://github.com/ramsey/uuid * https://hub.docker.com/r/benramsey/ramsey-uuid/ * https://travis-ci.org/ramsey/uuid Test script: --------------- Here is a Gist that will allow you to reproduce this issue within a Vagrant VM: https://gist.github.com/ramsey/8ba95a871c75c3aad820 See the comments at the top of the script, but in short, once you're ready to run the script in the VM, you can run it like this to build different chroot jails with different PHP versions: sudo ./php7-qemu-mips-build.sh 7.0.2 mips mips wheezy sudo ./php7-qemu-mips-build.sh 5.6.17 mips mips wheezy sudo ./php7-qemu-mips-build.sh 5.5.31 mips mips wheezy The 7.0.2 version is the one where I am encountering the segmentation fault. Actual result: -------------- Generating phar.php qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped /bin/bash: line 1: 23824 Segmentation fault (core dumped) if test -x "/php-src/php-7.0.2/sapi/cli/php"; then /php-src/php-7.0.2/build/shtool echo -n -- "/php-src/php-7.0.2/sapi/cli/php -n"; if test "x" != "x"; then /php-src/php-7.0.2/build/shtool echo -n -- " -d extension_dir=/php-src/php-7.0.2/modules"; for i in bz2 zlib phar; do if test -f "/php-src/php-7.0.2/modules/$i.la"; then . /php-src/php-7.0.2/modules/$i.la; /php-src/php-7.0.2/build/shtool echo -n -- " -d extension=$dlname"; fi; done; fi; else /php-src/php-7.0.2/build/shtool echo -n -- "/php-src/php-7.0.2/sapi/cli/php"; fi; -n -d 'open_basedir=' -d 'output_buffering=0' -d 'memory_limit=-1' -d phar.readonly=0 -d 'safe_mode=0' /php-src/php-7.0.2/ext/phar/build_precommand.php > ext/phar/phar.php make: *** [ext/phar/phar.php] Error 139 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71438&edit=1
