i really do apologize for being a pain in the ass. I compiled on Ubuntu 16.04. i hope this is the output your asking for. If not how do i find the other

Thanks. This tells me where it crashed, after finding a nonce but before displaying the hash message.
It's going to be a difficult troubleshooting and I need every clue I can get.

Can you tell me about Windows? Did you compile it or use the binaries? What kind of CPU?

On Linux can you try compiling with -march=core2  instead of -march=native. This will cause some different
code to run and I want to know if it crashes as well.

on windows i used the precompiled from cryptominingblog. exact same cpu. give me a few minutes and ill recompile. same thing. i may just give up on this algo lol. might not be worth the trouble with my shitty comp.

Cryptominingblog stopped building binaries of cpuminer-opt a long time ago. Sigh.

im so happy im not the only one  

Both are with GCC 5.4.0, I compile with 4.8.4. It's the best clue so far.

There were some problem reported a long time ago with newer compilers. I'll have to try to find
that discussion unless someone else finds it first. I thought it had been resolved but don't recall how.

Found this.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39237085/stack-smashing-detected-comes-in-ubuntu-16-04

It's worth a try. If nothing else it will blow up somewhere else giving another clue.

Edit: as far as root cause goes, I've reviewed the code many times for rogue pointers that could corrupt
the stack (Im very familiar with my issues with pointer arithmetic) but can't find anything suspicious.

It may be a stack overflow which can go unoticed if it it doesn't go too far. That could explain why it
works when compiled with GCC 4.8.4 presumably with no stack protector.

If it is a stack overflow the next release will have reduced stack usage. The context struct for this algo
is the biggest of any algos, including xevan so I've moved it from local to global In a sense it is the canary.
I may move more context structs if this proves to be the issue.

so far so good . thank you for the response
but how to downgrade or fix by myself ,   and is it worth because you said you will try to fix this in next releases

If it works with stack protector disabled go with it until the next release, then try reenabling it to see
if the problem is fixed.

[Epsylon3]

Code:

valgrind --leak-check=full -v --log-file=report.log ./cpuminer ....

that will use secure memory allocations and logs overflows etc. This error is happening if you write too far in an array... and indeed doesnt crash all the time..

[joblo]

I'm not sure what I'm looking for with valgrind. leak-check is done at program exit and reports
some potential leaks that appear to be false positives. Regardless leaks are not the issue,

Memcheck seems to be what I'm looking for and it appears to be enabled by default. But I didn't
see anything that stood out. There was no mention of Memcheck other than in the report header
and no mention of any stack problems other than the suspected leaks. As these appear to be in
systen code allocating a stack and the man page does warn of false positives i don't
think they are significant. Here's a sample showing one of 4 identical reports and the summary.

I saw no difference after implementing the smaller stack frame.

I was looking at sia in cpuminer-multi, it didn't submit a share after several minutes although it
appeared to be hashing sanely. Dos it work? It looks like the wrong nonce offset [19] is used
all through scanhash_sia but [8] (32 bytes) is used in miner_thread.

until now nothing has solved the problem ,
i found this  here:  from this source
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2340259/how-to-turn-off-gcc-compiler-optimization-to-enable-buffer-overflow

maybe something from works

On newer distros (as of 2016), it seems that PIE is enabled by default so you will need to disable it explicitly when compiling.

Here's a little summary of commands which can be helpful when playing locally with buffer overflow exercises in general:

Disable canary:

gcc vuln.c -o vuln_disable_canary -fno-stack-protector ./build.sh       << tested     no succes   same error (stack overflow   terminated) 

Disable DEP:

gcc vuln.c -o vuln_disable_dep -z execstack

Disable PIE:

gcc vuln.c -o vuln_disable_pie -no-pie

Disable all of protection mechanisms listed above (warning: for local testing only):

gcc vuln.c -o vuln_disable_all -fno-stack-protector -z execstack -no-pie



have also tried like Epsylon adviced , no succes

-fno-stack-protector should prevent the stack smashing detection but may still result in a segfault. That would
be a successful test as it indicates the stack smashing detection is not causing a problem, only detecting
a problem.

I presume you saw nothing unusual when running with valgrind. I would expect some extra data surrouding
the crash.

i have the logfile   "report.log"    from Eypsylon version of CL    but its a huge file .
if it helps  how can i deliver it to you     or simply posting here ?

Just look for keywords like Memcheck. stack, error, etc, as well as the last few lines when it crashed.
I don't know exactly what to look for, just anything suspicious that indicates problems with the stack.

Did you try compiling with -fno-stack-protector?
