I use a closed source math software called MAGMA (http://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/magma/) for work. I never had a problem with it, but now I get:

      Code:

finottim83[/usr/local/magma-02.21-6]$ magma
Segmentation fault


I've tried many versions of MAGMA, and all give segmentation fault. I tried older kernels and 4.3 and back work. I also tried linux-image-4.4.0-trunk-amd64 (from experimental) and it also works. But none of the slh 4.4 kernels I have work:

      Code:

root@finottim83[/usr/local/magma-02.21-10]# dpkg-query -l | grep linux-image-4.4
ii  linux-image-4.4.0-0.slh.1-aptosid-amd64       4.4-2                                  amd64        Linux 4.4 for 64-bit PCs
ii  linux-image-4.4.0-0.slh.2-aptosid-amd64       4.4-3                                  amd64        Linux 4.4 for 64-bit PCs
ii  linux-image-4.4.0-0.slh.3-aptosid-amd64       4.4-4                                  amd64        Linux 4.4 for 64-bit PCs
ii  linux-image-4.4.0-1.slh.1-aptosid-amd64       4.4-5                                  amd64        Linux 4.4 for 64-bit PCs
ii  linux-image-4.4.0-trunk-amd64                 4.4-1~exp1                             amd64        Linux 4.4 for 64-bit PCs


The same is true for my laptop and home desktop (although I haven't tried the trunk kernel with them).

I am not sure how to provide useful information to debug it, but I'd be glad to do whatever I can. This software is important to me, so any help would be appreciated.

Best,

Luis

Edit: I'm not sure this helps, but here is the output of "strace -v magma"

Never heard of it, how is it different from GNU Octave?

Hi elish,

It's very different. Octave, as a Matlab clone, is built around matrices ("MATrix LAB") and it's useful for many applications. MAGMA is stronger in number theory and arithmetic geometry, and it's the most advanced software for those areas. Sage (http://www.sagemath.org/) is an open source alternative and it is great. I use it quite a bit, but I have a lot of code written for MAGMA that I need...

It's a shame that MAGMA is closed source... In fact, that's why Sage was first created.

Luis

Good to know, thanks.
I had a chance to play a little with Matlab and Maple.
Hope the problem will be solved quickly.

With the help of a MAGMA developer, we found out that dynamically linked version works with slh's 4.4 kernels. In the previous versions, the statically linked version always worked...

Any reason why the new 4.4 kernels would have an effect on that? (Again, Debian's trunk 4.4 kernel also works with the statically linked versions of MAGMA.)

In any case, I will mark this as solved.
