Description

Hi,

I am using libavcodec in my mcu project and I am latelly getting some random seg faults.

I have traced it down to be in clear_blocks_sse called by ff_h263_decode_mb.

Here is the gdb info:

dissass and registers missing, see http://ffmpeg.org/bugreports.html

Is the problem reproducible with ffmpeg (the application)? Are you sure you aligned your buffers sufficiently for SSE?

comment:2 by Sergio Garcia, 13 years ago

Hi

I am using it for a multiconference application, so it is decoding rtp video data. I could try to dump the h263 stream to a file to check if it makes ffmpeg crash. The problem ususally happen on situations with big packets losses that could cause damaged h263 streams.

I add the padding to the buffer, but it is not alligned (anyway it does not crash inmediatelly).

I have got the full info from another core dump:

Replying to sgarcia:

I am using it for a multiconference application, so it is decoding rtp video data. I could try to dump the h263 stream to a file to check if it makes ffmpeg crash.

Sounds like a good idea.

comment:4 by reimar, 13 years ago

The relevant code is:
s->dsp.clear_blocks(s->block[0]);
I can't see a way for that to crash except if the pointer was corrupted or the MpegEncContext freed.
valgrind might be able to help figure it out.
However your backtrace is broken so I am rather skeptical anyway:
#0 0x00e81882 in clear_blocks_sse (blocks=0xb36202e0) at libavcodec/x86/dsputil_mmx.c:539
means the program counter is at 0x00e81882
However according to the disassembly there is no instruction starting there:
0x00e8187f <clear_blocks_sse+47>: movaps %xmm0,0x60(%edx,%eax,1)
0x00e81884 <clear_blocks_sse+52>: movaps %xmm0,0x70(%edx,%eax,1)

More info..

If I run my program under valgrind I cannot reproduce the crash.

Also changing the line

s->dsp.clear_blocks(s->block[0]);

By

memset(s->block[0], 0, 2*6*64);

Also seems to fix the issue.

I run several h263/flv1 encoders while running the h263 decoder, could there be a concurrence problem with the sse assembler function?

Keywords: crash SIGSEGV added

Where you able to produce a dump that allows to reproduce the problem?

Resolution: needs_more_info
Status: newclosed

Is this issue still happening?
If yes you can also try address sanitizer
but without further information or a way to reproduce this, there is nothing we can do, thus i close this as (needs more info) please reopen if this issue still happens and or you can provide more information.
