#628 closed defect (fixed)

VirtualBox 1.5 crashes (very often) on Linux host with Win2000 guest (backtraces included)

Description

Hi!

After crashes with VirtualBox 1.4 (see ticket #571) on my Fedora 7 box with Windows 2000 guest I today upgraded to VirtualBox 1.5.

After several problems with the installation of the guest additions I had it running... ... for a few minutes :-(

VB1.5 crashes more often than 1.4 for me. The guest silently aborts. No log entries.

So I did three backtraces and attached the last logfile.

You can ignore the second attachment. It's a duplicate of the first. (There seems to be no way to delete an attachment here...)

I can second this bug report. I am using VirtualBox 1.5 OSE (compiled from source), F7 as host, Windows 2000 as guest and crashes happen regulary. I cant guarantee for the sanity of my build environment - its a development machine

The following two crash report from the malloc-handler happened:

I then compiled the debug version (configure -d) but unfortunately (:-) the crashes disappeared and no assert happened.

Sorry for adding another followup. I now got a crash from the debug version with the following backtrace:

Because it seems to be a memory corruption I fear this will not help much. If you give a hint what I can do for more diagnostics I will try do so.

Disclaimer: I have no idea whether there are (after the many crashes) inconsistencies in the virtual image or whether my build environment is sane.

comment:4 by pilovis, 17 years ago

Have you tried to remove the USB support? I had continuous crashes because of that. The USB support on Win 2000 host seems not to work very well

comment:5 by chriz, 17 years ago

@ugemkow: I'll try to compile and use the OSE version (with debugging) here too in the next days. (I'm no expert in this.)

@pilovis: The OSE version ugemkow uses doesn't have USB built in and crashes like my binary version. All my crashes happened when not using (the enabled) USB but doing simple things like opening an editor and typing text or so.

comment:6 by chriz, 17 years ago

Now I tried it with the OSE version (1.5.51 from SVN)

Unfortunately it still crashes/aborts:

Logfile from 1.5.51-OSE

comment:7 by chriz, 17 years ago

This time I compiled 1.5.51-OSE with debug option.

Now it already/always crashes (aborts) while the guest Windows 2000 is starting. Tested several times.

Logfile from 1.5.51-OSE compiled with debug option

comment:8 by chriz, 17 years ago

Now I upgraded to 1.5.51_OSE r4786 (from yesterdays r4735) and I'm able to start the Windows 2000 guest even with VirtualBox compiled in debug mode.

But the aborts are still there. Easily reproducable e.g. with holding down a key in my favorite text editor for some seconds.

The log file is attached.

The results in the shell:

Logfile from VB 1.5.51_OSE r4786 with debug option

comment:9 by Frank Mehnert, 17 years ago

Please could you start the debug version of both VBoxSVC and VirtualBox from gdb?

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. gdb ./VBoxSVC
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. gdb ./VirtualBox (in another terminal)

and can you reproduce the crashes with VBoxSDL?

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. gdb ./VBoxSVC
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. gdb -args ./VBoxSDL -vm <vm-name-to-start> (in another terminal)

The backtrace would be interesting (command 'bt' in gdb).

comment:10 by chriz, 17 years ago

Frank,

I tried to do as you suggested. Since I'm not familiar with gdb my actions may be not optimal. If so: please advise ;-)

The output of the two terminals is in the attached file.
I listed 4 tries, commented with lines beginning with "##@@##" in that file.
First the output of VBoxSVC and then the corresponding one of VirtualBox.

VBoxSVC always wents into background.
So to be able to type "bt" after a crash I first had to type Ctrl-C.
I'm not sure if the result is good then.

Anyway, an expert may be able to read in that file.

And I can't reproduce the crashes with VBoxSDL. At least it didn't crash within a few minutes trying.
The normal VirtualBox crashes within second ususally.

Hi guys,

please don't insert VBox.log files or any other dumps here, they are completely messed up as you already should have noted. Instead attach these files.

Hi! Sorry i don't know that. Can you help me??

comment:15 by Sander van Leeuwen, 17 years ago

Can you still reproduce this with the latest SVN code? We fixed a similar problem last week.

comment:16 by chriz, 17 years ago

I tried it every few days with a new version and it always crashes.

Today it's 1.5.51_OSE r5020. And it still crashes.

Sorry for the bad news.

comment:17 by chriz, 17 years ago

Now I tried it with Windows XP as guest. It doesn't crash as often as with the Windows 2000 guest, and is not so easy to replicate, but it still crashes often.

Logfiles are attached.

Another try, now with VirtualBox 1.5.51_OSE r5098

Situation that produced this crash:

Just after start of Windows XP guest I opened a command prompt window and executed a "dir C:\ /s"
After some seconds (perhaps 20???) the guest froze and then aborted.
This time I remembered to set "ulimit -c unlimited" before to get a core file.
The freeze may be due to writing the core file?
So now there is a backtrace inluded. Hopefully correct.

comment:19 by Frank Mehnert, 17 years ago

Chriz, thank you very much for the backtrace. Unfortunately, I cannot see any hint there why VBox crashed on your system. The backtrace looks quite ok, the memory corruption must have been occurred earlier.

in reply to:  19 comment:20 by ugemkow, 17 years ago

Can you give some hint how to give more helpful information or how to debug this?

comment:21 by chriz, 17 years ago

Frank,

now I tried it with my Windows 2000 guest again. That's much easier to replicate the crash ...
And perhaps the backtrace gives some infos.

comment:22 by ugemkow, 16 years ago

Is there anything we can do to help innotek debug and fix this problem? Is it possible i.e. to valgrind VirtualBox?

I can produce some more backtraces but as already noted these may be of little help if this is really a memory corruption. Shall I add them anyway?

comment:23 by Frank Mehnert, 16 years ago

ugemkow: valgrind is only a limited aid in debugging VBox since VBox uses several kernel areas mapped to userland which valgrind doesn't know. Therefore it would complain with tons of messages. As a first step you could try to generate backtraces with gdb:

export VBOX_ASSERT=0
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. gdb ./VBoxSVC

and in another terminal

export VBOX_ASSERT=0
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. gdb ./VirtualBox

and then start your guest session. Once VBox crashes, please dump the backtraces of all threads:

 info threads
 thread 1
 bt
 thread 2
 bt
 ...

And what did you exactly do to reproduce the crash? I have Win2k as guest here on a Ubuntu 7.04/i386 host. If you could find a pattern how to reproduce your problem as quick as possible that would be very helpful.

comment:24 by chriz, 16 years ago

frank: Here another crash with the info files.
I tried to follow the instructions you gave ugemkow above. The "VBOX_ASSERT=0" and the "threads" command were new to me.
Again I only typed a bit in my favourite editor (http://www.vedit.com) to reproduce the crash.

This time Windows2000 guest crashed during it's shutdown (just after startup, no actions within done.)

More thread infos this time. From VirtualBox process too.

comment:26 by Frank Mehnert, 16 years ago

chris: Thank you very much for these additional information. Unfortunately, still no idea.

Which windows decorations are you using (kcontrol, Appearance & Themes, Window Decorations)? Crystal? Could you try to switch to other Window decorations, for example Plastik? Does that makes a difference?

comment:27 by sitor, 16 years ago

Some people including myself have successfully gotten rid of these aborts by disabling hyperthreading or dual processor suport in the BIOS. Seems that that would be the direction to look to. Look at this thread http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=149&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=28 for the details.

Hope this can help to get the problem fixed in the next version.

KR,

Sitor

comment:28 by chriz, 16 years ago

frank:
Usually I'm using KDE, mostly with standard settings (Plastic?).
Now I switched to Gnome for a test: same crash.
And with Fluxbox instead of Gnome: the same aborting.

comment:29 by chriz, 16 years ago

... and with Xfce and Blackbox it's the same aborting as well.

comment:30 by Frank Mehnert, 16 years ago

Thanks for testing, so we can rule out at least such things.

comment:31 by ugemkow, 16 years ago

Hello Frank,

I made a clean install mirroring the machine where the problems happens and also in this new installation the crashes happen.

Would it be helpful for you to get access to this system? Stuttgart is not so far away from Weinstadt. I can also give you the system for a few days.

Please contact me in private mail if this would be helpful.

comment:32 by ugemkow, 16 years ago

In case you are still not able to reproduce these crashes maybe the following observation helps:

With current git (including the commit r5329 (Don't call QWidgtet::update() from a non-GUI thread) I was not able to reproduce the crash on my machine after about 15 minutes of working - before, the crash happened after a few seconds. So there is a significant difference.

comment:33 by chriz, 16 years ago

I can confirm ugemkow's observation.
Today I tried it with r5352 and no crash yet.

comment:34 by Frank Mehnert, 16 years ago

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Indeed, it is very likely that this changeset fixed the problem. I will close this bug (fix contained in 1.5.2), please re-open if still relevant.

comment:35 by masch, 16 years ago

Exelent New!!1... I was wainting this fixed...how can i get this version??

Congratulations!!...y Thanks..:D

Salu2...

comment:36 by Frank Mehnert, 16 years ago

http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads -- version 1.5.2 contains the fix.
