Pre-built packages seg fault on start on linux kernel version >= 6
Closed this issue · 5 comments
When I just tried to use the cli again I got a core dump, I'm not sure if its specific to my system, but if I use go install to install v1.5.1 it does work
strace upctl
execve("/usr/local/bin/upctl", ["upctl"], 0x7ffca96f3d70 /* 74 vars */) = 0
arch_prctl(ARCH_SET_FS, 0xdf0bd0) = 0

[1] 1054086 segmentation fault (core dumped) strace upctlUsed AUR to install on 6.0.2-2-MANJARO
Hi, thanks for reporting this!
Did you try to run go install with latest version?
Is the 6.0.2 in 6.0.2-2-MANJARO the Linux kernel version? Seems that GitHub actions runner that we use for builds and tests uses kernel version 5.15.0-.... So that would be one difference between the environments.

That's impossible because it's on v2, you need to append /v2 to the go.mod for it to work with the go install cmd.

If I clone and build myself, it does work. Perhaps you can change the AUR version to build locally instead of installing a pre-build version. Since compiling is super fast that shouldn't be an issue
The just released v2.3.0 now has v2 included in the go module name, so go install will now also work with upctl versions >= 2.3.0. That would likely be the easiest installation method until we look into how to make pre-built packages work also on >= 6 kernels.
Debian 12 ("Bookworm") runs on kernel version 6.1.0-9-amd64. Installed upctl version 2.7.1 from pre-built deb packages and confirmed it works as expected.
@Davincible Could you retry and confirm whether you're still experiencing this issue?
Works on another OS with series 6 Linux kernel as well. Closing this off but reach out if the problem still persists.
