Hmm.., i found the source of the crash. Interesting finding. My linux box was affected by the bug (!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost), i have fixed that in Libx11 with the proposed fix. Google-chrome, pcfman, geany, meld and some other application i can't remember was affected by this bug. i haad bumped the libx11 version to 1.6.4-3ubuntu0.3. It was all fine, some time later Google-chrome released version 85.0.4183.83, so the crashes started with this version and Chromium 84.0.4147.105 was not affected. Google-chrome 84.0.4147.105 was not affected also.
Recently i updated the Ubuntu and a new security fix in libx11 was installed: libx11 (2:1.6.4-3ubuntu0.3) bionic-security; urgency=medium , which has overwritten my own 1.6.4-3ubuntu0.3 with the "!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost" fix. After this update i started to having the "!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost" issue again, went back to libx11, bumped the version and applied the "!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost" fix. Now Google-chrome and Chromium crash with SIGSEGV when an input is in the window. So, 85.0.4183.83 engine has changed the way it handles input (could be to mitigate the !xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost issue ???). The odd thing is FireFox is not affected. Can someone point me to what have changed from 84.0.4147.105 to 85.0.4183.83? My linux box is unstable with !xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost issue, fixing that makes 85.0.4183.83 crash. ** Summary changed: - Google Chrome 85.0.4183.83 crahses with SIGSEGV + Chromium-browser and Google Chrome 85.0.4183.83 crashes with SIGSEGV -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1893484 Title: Chromium-browser and Google Chrome 85.0.4183.83 crashes with SIGSEGV Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After an Update, the new version Google Chrome 85.0.4183.83 crashes with SIGSEGV. 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Release: 18.04 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center ii google-chrome-stable 85.0.4183.83-1 amd64 The web browser from Google 3) What you expected to happen Load the initial page or load my themes and configurations 4) What happened instead It show the initial page, ask for Restore pages? when clicked it freezes for a moment and then a crash with: --- SIGSEGV {si_signo=SIGSEGV, si_code=SEGV_MAPERR, si_addr=0x34ff40} -- +++ killed by SIGSEGV (core dumped) +++ Previous version was working fine.
