[bugzilla-noreply at freebsd.org]

Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-gecko mailing list
<gecko at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 239873: www/firefox and mail/thunderbird don't like the new ASLR "stackgap"
feature
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=239873



--- Description ---
Both fail with a "too much recursion" error message during start up.

I'm guessing the feature confuses them about the depth of the stack somehow.

Tested on 12.0-STABLE r351060.

They both work fine with the stackgap sysctls set to 0.

And they both have been working fine with the other ASLR features on ever since
this was committed to 12-STABLE BTW.
