Crash Data

Running nightly build, about:support crashes instantly for me. Interestingly with different stacks. Eg. https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-172f3d6d-92e0-4564-828c- https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-1fe9582c-646c-4a32-8917-2f0382120112 At the moment this 100% reproducible for me, so if you want me debug anything?

Severity: normal → critical
Crash Signature: [@ js::MaybeGC ] → [@ js::MaybeGC] [@ mozalloc_abort | NS_DebugBreak_P | X11Error]
Keywords: crash
Can you find the regression range, for instance by using http://harthur.github.com/mozregression/?
Keywords: reproducible
Can try doing that. Also the crash report was https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-172f3d6d-92e0-4564-828c-fcf172120112
does it crash also if you started in safe mode?
It tried using mozregression, but not one of these builds crashed?! Yes, same crash in safe-mode, but they all were mozalloc_abort now.
I added the new TouchBadMemory crash signature that replaces crash signatures starting by mozalloc on Linux.
Crash Signature: [@ js::MaybeGC] [@ mozalloc_abort | NS_DebugBreak_P | X11Error] → [@ js::MaybeGC] [@ mozalloc_abort | NS_DebugBreak_P | X11Error] [@ TouchBadMemory]

I still get this crash every time, I try to open about:support.

Can you submit a crash report from a run with MOZ_X_SYNC=1 in the environment, please? The [@ js::MaybeGC ] report looks quite different. Perhaps a modern version of bug 633845.
Strange that a GL Context is created when glxtest failed. Could webgl.force-enabled somehow be set in about:config?

Yes, I hope this doesn't make this bug invalid. I must have this enabled quite a while back, but it never helped so I probably forgot about it. Disabling it, stops the crash. Good Catch :)
