crash.log of blender-2.91.0-2.fc33.x86_64 none

Description Jan ONDREJ 2020-08-27 04:37:20 UTC
Description of problem:
Blender crashes when running my python script. This script has been ported to blender 2.8, worked well, but currently crashes with segmentation fault. I tested upstream bleder tar package, where everything works well, no crash. Looks like Fedora's build is broken.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
blender-2.83.5-4.fc32.x86_64
I think all versions from 2.82, at least one 2.8x version worked for me.

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
Unable to describe specially, because my python scripts are needed for this, but I can do more debugging if needed.

Actual results:
BLT_lang_init: 'locale' data path for translations not found, continuing
Read prefs: ~/.config/blender/2.83/config/userpref.blend
Writing: /tmp/blender.crash.txt
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Expected results:
No crash.

Additional info:
Here are blender.crash file contents:

blender-2.83.5-5.fc32 doesn't fix this problem.
I am trying to build blender-2.90 from f33 on f32, but without success. Is it possible to build it? Blender-2.90 is not fully addon compatible, but at least want to try.

Comment 12 Jan ONDREJ 2020-10-26 12:19:23 UTC
Same problem on Fedora 33. Blender version:

blender-2.90.1-2.fc33.x86_64

Currently there are multiple problems, for example unable to import STL file, crashes too.

Looks like all python things are broken (STL import is python too).

I am amble to reproduce this with a very simple python script:

cat > test.py << EOF
import bpy
bpy.ops.mesh.primitive_cube_add(size=1.0)
EOF

Then run:
blender -P test.py

Results:
Writing: /tmp/blender.crash.txt
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

If you can't reproduce it, I can attach crash.txt file.
I've removed all my custom configs before run, so don't think this was caused by my settings.

Comment 13 Kei 2020-10-28 23:42:47 UTC
I can confirm the same exact problem on a fresh installed Fedora 33.
The version from Blender official site works as expected.

My specs, if it can be useful:

Intel i7 6700K
GeForce GTX 1060 6GB/PCIe/SSE2

Kernel Version: 5.8.16-300.fc33.x86_64

KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.75.0
Qt Version 5.15.1

Comment 14 Xinya Zhang 2020-11-06 04:14:37 UTC
Can also confirm on Fedora 33. If clicking the "Script" tab on the main menu it crashes instantly.

The following is the gdb backtrace, if it's helpful:

Would you test this build from COPR: https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/luya/blender-egl/fedora-33-x86_64/01731399-blender/

Comment 16 Jan ONDREJ 2020-11-07 09:45:34 UTC
Hello. Thank for this build, but still same problem.
You can't test/reproduce it yourself? As mentioned in comment#14, it's enough to click on "Scripting" tab.

Comment 17 Kei 2020-11-07 18:17:19 UTC

Hence the build on COPR to compare issue. I confirm the traceback and it seems affecting Python 3.8 and up as upstream version is build from Python 3.7.
Unfortunately, there is no devel package for Python 3.7. Assigning to Python team for investigation.

Comment 19 Luya Tshimbalanga 2020-11-08 09:30:09 UTC
Set assignation to investigate the traceback highlighted on comment #12

I searched on Blender's issue tracker and its T82520 looks suspicious to me: https://developer.blender.org/T82520
Hope it helps

Thanks for the finding. Essentially, the bug in question is upstream and a large patch is available on 
https://developer.blender.org/rBe118426e4695a97d67e65d69677f3c4e2db50a56

Comment 22 Miro Hrončok 2020-11-09 09:36:01 UTC
Python maintainer here. It seems that the upstream links provide the informatika that was requested from us.

Comment 23 Jan ONDREJ 2020-11-09 11:33:48 UTC
Not sure, if this is a solution.

Change from 0 to nullptr in most of places has been started in this patch on 6th november:
https://developer.blender.org/rB16732def37c5a66f3ea28dbe247b09cc6bca6677#change-1Lw0xNX3U8nT

Later some nullptr changed back to 0:
https://developer.blender.org/T82520

In current Fedora build there are zeros, nullptr is not used.
Do you think, changing some of them to nullptr and tp_print to 0 will fix our issue?
Original patch was described only as "modernize" patch, not fixing anything.

Comment 24 Miro Hrončok 2020-11-09 11:51:17 UTC
Thinking about it more,  changing nullptrs to zero or back should not cause segmentation faults. I'd say that there is a problem with GIL somewhere. But I am not familiar with Blender codebase at all.

Comment 25 Luya Tshimbalanga 2020-11-23 01:07:03 UTC
Blender 2.91 is near with more fixes. https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Reference/Release_Notes/2.91 
I'll push it when available.

blender-2.91.0-2.fc33.x86_64 works much better. Most of operation works, but still sometimes crashes. Attaching creash.log.

From the attachment:
"  File "/home/ondrejj/.config/blender/2.91/scripts/addons/boxmaker.py", line 156 in execute"

It seems that add-on has an issue. Disable it and see if the crash occur. I tested the script from comment #12 where the crash no longer occurs.

This is my own addon. I know, that blender crashed when using it, but blender shouldn't creash when using python addon. Should throw an exception, but don't crash.

Also I can use my addon without problems with original blender downloaded from blender.org, but sometimes crashes in Fedora's build.

My addon works normally in Fedora's build too, but If I change some object parameters, then crashes.

As observed, the crash occurred with Python 3.8 and up which exposed upstream bug relying to Python 3.7.
