 Posted: Thu Jun 22, 2023 10:48 am Post subject: steam not launching possibly crashing |
 |
|
Crash observation: While steam is doing something in terminal /var/log/kern.log is reporting below:
| Code: | Jun 22 15:53:24 <hostname> kernel: traps: Composite Threa[10767] trap invalid opcode ip:7fe45273c794 sp:7fe43c33eaa0 error:0 in libcef.so[7fe44fe50000+7770000]
|
Other observations:
1. "libcef" does not seem to be a gentoo package @gentoo repository as confirmed by "emerge --search libcef".
2. steam has a flag "-no-cef-sandbox"; but this does not help.
3. the steam terminal prints below in a loop:

Steam was running fine and I was playing games until I restarted.
Before restarting, I might have intalled a package or two; but I was definitely up for less than 12 hours.
No --depclean or update was done.
After restarting I plugged in an extra monitor which was working fine with my dwm.
I have re-checked by unplugging the monitor but no luck; I thought it might be an issue.
About 32-bit binaries or library linking...I don't know how to reset it all.
I vague remember running libtool --update /usr/lib64 or something like that but google didn't help me
with exact command.
My steam acceptkeyword copied from gentoo steam page:

If anyone has working steam on gentoo you could cross check with my steam terminal output with yours and it might give some
hints.

Another observation:
I picked a dependency: dev-libs/icu from the above list and did emerge --info:
| Code: |
dev-libs/icu-73.1-r2::gentoo was built with the following:
USE="-debug -doc -examples -static-libs -test -verify-sig" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)"
CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=znver2 -pipe -fno-expensive-optimizations --std=c++17 -std=c++14"
FEATURES="protect-owned usersandbox strict parallel-fetch pid-sandbox ebuild-locks assume-digests unknown-features-warn userfetch qa-unresolved-soname-deps buildpkg-live network-sandbox unmerge-orphans userpriv distlocks merge-sync multilib-strict sfperms binpkg-logs fixlafiles config-protect-if-modified unmerge-logs xattr binpkg-docompress binpkg-dostrip news ipc-sandbox usersync preserve-libs sandbox"
|
It mentions 32 and (64) binaries but no -x32.
Could this be a problem? If so, I am confused as to why it was running before the restart. |

Is steam built with USE="runtime"?
I have had a problem which printed similar messages due to missing symbols in libudev.
That time steam was starting, but nothing worked. You can see the thread here.
Maybe this is a similar issue, not necessarily with libudev, but this is only speculation.

Yes my steam-launcher is built using runtime USE flag.
| Code: |
games-util/steam-launcher-1.0.0.76-r1::steam-overlay was built with the following:
USE="joystick steamruntime udev" ABI_X86="(64)"

Right now there are series of steam bugs reported at github/valve.
For instance this: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9383
and,
this: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9692
I was able to temporarily run steam using these two methods:
First method:
do steam --reset
restart
steam runs ok
but games don't run and complains about wrong elf class
Second method:
run steam with -vgui flag
steam runs, but friends tab and game properties do not load and
games don't run as well. Same error: wrong elf class
You could try those.
Looks like valve pushed something that is crashing steam for some of linux distors/users.
Hopefully they fix it.
I am still looking through gentoo angle.
Let's hope for the best. |

While updating nvidia-drivers I found this message:
| Code: |
Detected potential configuration issues with used kernel:
* CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE: is set, recommended to disable and switch to FB_EFI or
* FB_VESA as it currently may be broken with >=kernel-5.18.13 + NVIDIA:
* https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules/issues/341
* (feel free to ignore this if it works for you)
|
I am compiling kernel with above recommendation to see if it changes anything. |

Just for reference, maybe it provides some ideas about what is happening: CEF stands for Chromium Embedded Framework, which is used by Steam and other applications to have a capable browser engine available in their user interface. That you see the same output repeated multiple times doesn't necessarily mean anything, as CEF usually runs in its own thread and an application may use quite a few of those.
The "invalid opcode" in the kernel logs means that the CEF thread is trying to execute an instruction not supported by your CPU, typical cases in the past were missing AVX instructions. Unfortunately the kernel doesn't tell us what the invalid opcode was. But knowing the exact CPU model of the system might be relevant. |

Afaik that is normal. They bundle both 32-bit and 64-bit libs and only those for your arch are loaded.

Not sure why this is happening.
Also, My monitor resolution is 2560x1440 not sure why it is taking 2558x1415. May be because of dwm.

Afaik that is normal. They bundle both 32-bit and 64-bit libs and only those for your arch are loaded. |
Did you try to run steam with -vgui flag and running a game? |

Tried it now both with and without -vgui flag.
Games work in both cases and I still get that error in both cases.
In the last run the error got truncated but it's still there:

I've been suffering from this for many months now, I'm still unable to start steam and valve on github is of no help.
I've installed steam on a liveUSB session and it worked fine, do you mind confirming?
This proves the hardware configuration is ok with the current steam release
Then we can look at packages, use flags, cflags and kernel modules and options...
Thank you. |
