Public bug reported: A simple numerical calculation reliably leads to a JVM crash. This is on Kubuntu 11.10 and java version "1.6.0_23", OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11pre) (6b23~pre11-0ubuntu1.11.10.2), OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode).
Changing various, seemingly superficial aspects of the test case makes the crash go away so it appears to be due to just the right combination of factors . For example, changing the ternary operator in the test case "denom != 0 ? num / denom : 0" to just "num / denom" eliminates the crash. I have attached a self-contained test case - to run, pass the "crash"file to Java's standard input. This bug occurs every time I run the test case. I have also attached a crash report. Please let me know if there's any other information I should provide. ** Affects: openjdk-6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1023132 Title: JVM crash in simple numerical computation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/+bug/1023132/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
