Team,
Both Firefox and Thunderbird on a Raspberry Pi 3 in 64 bit mode appear to stall at

I left firefox for over 48h.
There is no CPU activity, 148M in swap.
It appears to want to rum some java and there is a selection of java-vm installed.
| Code: | Pi3 64bit ~ # eselect java-vm list
Available Java Virtual Machines:
[1] icedtea-7 system-vm
[2] icedtea-8
[3] oracle-jdk-bin-1.8 |
Any hints as to how to investigate this?

chithanh,
Thanks, I'll try that when libreoffice finishes building. That probably won't be today.

Neddy,
I just had the same thing happen with thunderbird on my Ryzen ~amd64 systems. There's a post on bugzilla that said downgrading sandbox to 2.10-r1 worked for some, so I tried it but failed with exactly the same error.
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=580726 I am running gcc-7.1.0-r1, so there's that....

wrc1944,
There is also https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617882.
As I posted on the bug, there is no logic behind the workaround there.

Just to chime in...
I'm also seeing this on Ryzen with gcc-7.1.0-r1, have not had time to look onto it much, and did not record the error message in dmesg, but easy to reproduce, oom killer kicks it out which was a surprise since I have 32G of ram.

well FWIW setting USE="custom-cflags custom-optimization" for firefox and emerging with: | Code: |
CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -mno-avx" emerge -1v firefox
|
Worked fine here.

thumper,
On thunderbird-52.1.1 | Code: | | CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -mno-avx" emerge thunderbird |
worked perfectly for me on ~amd64 Ryzen system, gcc-7.1.0-r1. 
Thanks much to you and Neddy for the tips. Much appreciated.

FWIW.
For firefox-54.0 and thunderbird-52.2.0 I had to change it to the following to get them installed.
| Code: |
CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -Os -mno-avx" USE="custom-cflags custom-optimization" emerge -1v firefox
CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -Os -mno-avx" USE="custom-cflags custom-optimization" emerge -1v thunderbird
|
YMMV.

Did your emerge for firefox-54.0 also require rust and cargo?
Emering rust itself requires rustc so I first built it from git src and installed in /usr/local.
But now (unlike build from git src) emerge for rust fails with errors like:
| Code: | # grep error.*: build.log | sort | uniq -c
74 error[E0433]: failed to resolve. Could not find `Try` in `ops`
1 error: requires `freeze` lang_item
5 error: unused macro definition |
here is the emerge -pv of firefox:
| Code: | # emerge -pv firefox
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

mDup,
The rust and cargo ebuilds fetch the birnaries that they need to build with.
If this is arm64 they both need patches but they are keyworded for ~arm64 and ~x86.
The arm64 patches and instructions are on the Gentoo Wiki

My emerge log for that day shows:
| Code: | Thu Jun 15 17:38:11 2017 >>> dev-lang/rust-1.16.0
Thu Jun 15 17:41:35 2017 >>> dev-util/cargo-0.17.0
Thu Jun 15 20:14:42 2017 >>> www-client/firefox-54.0
Thu Jun 15 20:49:22 2017 >>> mail-client/thunderbird-52.2.0 |
I'm on x86_64 (Ryzen) and the build for firefox and thunderbird failed with the same error as mentioned in this post.
I would guess that ARM has the avx processor flag as well that seems to be at the root of the problem.
According to this rustc is part of rust:
| Code: | # equery belongs /usr/bin/rustc
* Searching for /usr/bin/rustc ...
dev-lang/rust-1.16.0 (/usr/bin/rustc-1.16.0) |

thumper,
Nope. Setting -fno-avx on arm64 upsets gcc. Its not a legal setting.

Interesting, same failure, different cause, well, not being a user of ARM I will step out.

Hmmmm.. FWIW, one of my ~amd64 Ryzen systems also pulled in rust (didn't notice cargo though). Guess it was firefox that needed it, but I do also have Thunderbird on one of my Ryzen systems. IIRC rust took quite a while to compile, even on a pretty powerful system.

wrc1944,
That's the bundled LLVM.
| Code: | aarch64 NeddySeagoon_Static / # genlop -t rust cargo firefox
* dev-lang/rust
Sun Jun 18 04:30:42 2017 >>> dev-lang/rust-1.16.0-r100
merge time: 7 hours, 8 minutes and 6 seconds.
* dev-util/cargo
Sun Jun 18 10:07:42 2017 >>> dev-util/cargo-0.17.0
merge time: 36 minutes and 7 seconds.
* www-client/firefox
Tue Jun 20 21:14:21 2017 >>> www-client/firefox-54.0
merge time: 2 hours, 51 minutes and 8 seconds. |
--- edit ---
Posting this update from firefox-54.0 built with rust and cargo in an aarch64 chroot then installed on a 64 bit Raspberry Pi 3.
| Code: | | FEATURES="-sandbox -usersandbox" MAKEOPTS="-j8" emerge firefox |
is ugly though.

rust and cargo emerge fine natively
native firefox 54.0 emerge has same problem as reported by others (and myself) elsewhere

mDup,

worked for me.
Firefox-54.0 runs on a Pi3 too. I have not tested audio yet.

@NeddySeagoon
Thanks for expert advice. firefox-54.0 builds now (no patch needed).
Unfortunately I regularly get 'Segmentation fault's. Even with entire mozilla files cleaned.
But that may be my specific problem.
update
firefox-54.0 runs fine under 4.12.x (of course: no audio as it is WIP on amlogic mainline) |
