Hi,
as you're probably already aware, Kodi compiled with gcc >= 5.2 crashes when reading the video library on ARM devices. There loads of threads concerning this, e.g:
I'd really like to get this fixed, so which steps need to be taken to do that? Is this a Kodi issue (maybe Kodi is relying on undefined behaviour or something like that) or is it a bug in gcc 5.2 and above?
Thanks in advance,
Holzhaus
as you're probably already aware, Kodi compiled with gcc >= 5.2 crashes when reading the video library on ARM devices. There loads of threads concerning this, e.g:
- Scraper causes crash and reboot loop (forum.kodi.tv)
- Kodi crash after video indexing (forum.kodi.tv)
- Linux - kodi crashes after update (forum.kodi.tv)
- Kodi and gcc 5.2 (forum.kodi.tv)
- Kodi 15.1 crash at startup if remote library (archlinuxarm.org)
- kodi-[imx/rbp] upgrade to Isengard (archlinuxarm.org)
I'd really like to get this fixed, so which steps need to be taken to do that? Is this a Kodi issue (maybe Kodi is relying on undefined behaviour or something like that) or is it a bug in gcc 5.2 and above?
