The actual way that I'm building chromium on ArchLinux may seem a little off, but here it is: https://github.com/xftroxgpx/a3/tree/02d3ea99963338546376cfd28ac077cc170a3aa9/system/Z575/OSes/3archlinux/on_baremetal/filesystem_now/archlinux/home/xftroxgpx/build/1packages/chro/4_chromium-dev-git

I don't expect anyone to help me, because of the amount of patches that I'm applying on top of it - which in all honesty may be causing this very issue and I just don't know it, yet.

So, feel free to ignore this. Meanwhile I'll try to figure it out.

I'm currently recompiling, I had to export a new function that would flush the LOG(ERROR) <<  calls, because I think I'm not seeing all the log lines due to the crash, unless flushing after each line.

Compiling takes like 7 hours, for me, see you soon :D

And I still can't understand why it would segfault, assuming all logs are indeed flushed and none missing from output, this time.

Hmm...Maybe I should gdb it...

It crashes when accessing: content_settings_type_
and I'm not sure what to make of it.

the ptr value of content_settings_type_ aka &content_settings_type_

usually it is like: ptr=0x347e6a3498f0

but before crash is: ptr=0x10

If I assume that something set the pointer instead of the value, then 0x10 = 16 = CONTENT_SETTINGS_TYPE_PROTECTED_MEDIA_IDENTIFIER
but that seems very unlikely.

I'm still on it...

Hmm, as suspected: context is NULL (unless I'm missing something!!) at this point:

[4131:4131:0407/232353.106538:ERROR:permission_manager.cc(549)] !! GetPermissionStatusHelper perm=3

[4131:4131:0407/232353.106552:ERROR:permission_manager.cc(552)] !! GetPermissionStatusHelper (ptr) context=0

in: chrome/browser/permissions/permission_manager.cc
function: PermissionManager::GetPermissionStatusHelper(

if (IsConstantPermission(permission)) {
    return PermissionResult(GetContentSettingForConstantPermission(permission),
                            PermissionStatusSource::UNSPECIFIED);
  }
  LOG(ERROR) << "!! GetPermissionStatusHelper perm="<< permission <<"\n";
  ::logging::FlushLogFile();
  PermissionContextBase* context = GetPermissionContext(permission);
  LOG(ERROR) << "!! GetPermissionStatusHelper (ptr) context="<< context <<"\n";
  ::logging::FlushLogFile();
  PermissionResult result = context->GetPermissionStatus(
      nullptr /* render_frame_host */, requesting_origin.GetOrigin(),
      embedding_origin.GetOrigin());


So, at this point, perhaps someone could reproduce this by building with
enable_plugins = false
and then clicking on View Site Information
see if this crashes.

Meanwhile I'll try to figure out a workaround (but do know that I'm mostly stumbling around in the dark not knowing what I'm doing here hehe)

Ok, I'm starting to understand it:
in ./chrome/browser/permissions/permission_manager.cc

This part in:
PermissionManager::PermissionManager(Profile* profile)
which is this:

#if BUILDFLAG(ENABLE_PLUGINS)
  permission_contexts_[CONTENT_SETTINGS_TYPE_PLUGINS] =
      base::MakeUnique<FlashPermissionContext>(profile);
#endif

is not created, when built with:
enable_plugins = false

therefore, function:
PermissionManager::GetPermissionContext(
will return NULL
as per its line: return it == permission_contexts_.end() ? nullptr : it->second.get();

which in turn hits this function:
PermissionManager::GetPermissionStatusHelper(
which does:
PermissionContextBase* context = GetPermissionContext(permission);
PermissionResult result = context->GetPermissionStatus(
      nullptr /* render_frame_host */, requesting_origin.GetOrigin(),
      embedding_origin.GetOrigin());
BUT, context is already NULL there, but the sigsegv happens a bit later, within.

No matter, this is why the issue happens!

And there's one more which doesn't get created:
#if defined(OS_CHROMEOS) || defined(OS_ANDROID)
  permission_contexts_[CONTENT_SETTINGS_TYPE_PROTECTED_MEDIA_IDENTIFIER] =
      base::MakeUnique<ProtectedMediaIdentifierPermissionContext>(profile);
#endif

So that would mean that, at some point anyone calling GetPermissionContext(CONTENT_SETTINGS_TYPE_PROTECTED_MEDIA_IDENTIFIER) will get a NULL, and if it doesn't check for it, like GetPermissionStatusHelper does(n't), then segfault ...

Someone must've fixed this, if even accidentally, because I'm running:

with my fix from Comment 16, and I cannot find any log messages on console with 'NULL' or 'NEW context' after 'View site information' a few times; which tells me this doesn't trigger anymore.

So this may issue be closed, imo.

oh wait, nevermind, I was wrong, I was using both the workaround and the fix, and I forgot that the fix(comment 16) prevents the workaround NULL/NEW logs from showing up! (and in Comment 18 I was referring to the workaround from Comment 15 not the fix from 16)

So, this wasn't fixed in 59.0.3068, it was just my fix, that's why I wasn't seeing the workaround's logs.

I should delete Comment 18, but then those who got the notification, wouldn't know why I deleted it. So here:)

This may have been fixed by  Issue 711004 ?

I have a feeling that it's not; I'll update and let you know...

Sorry, currently stuck figuring out how to workaround this compilation error, so it may take a while, since I've no current ideas:

ok that compile error happens only when
use_gtk3 = false #Default = false
but not when true

basically, chromium is expecting gtk3 even when false! else, wouldn't get the above error.

gdk_screen_get_monitor_scale_factor
Since: 3.10

tested with commit 1e5352e7505feac546757f8bcdd7217b09a136a0 (HEAD, origin/master, origin/HEAD)

Finally, just finished compiling. The current issue still exists and is not fixed by  Issue 711004  !

Would've crashed if I hadn't used the workaround:

[6480:6480:0622/173131.788389:ERROR:permission_manager.cc(379)] !! GetPermissionContext is NULL(0) for ContentSettingsType=3 (see: vim ./components/content_settings/core/common/content_settings_types.h +19)

Anyway, the fix is in Comment 16
However I opt to use both workaround and fix. Attaching the current ones.

This probably won't be fixed because it only happens when compiling chromium without plugins support which nobody official does:) But hey I'm not complaining, though I wouldn't want to ever be on the chromium team(not that I will ever even qualify) because of things like this, which to be honest I think that are unavoidable esp. on such big projects: can't expect devs to test for all possible variants/cases, even though one might argue that then why provide the flag(BUILDFLAG(ENABLE_PLUGINS)) and give a false sense of choice - well, I guess with time it becomes harder to maintain and way less fun to handle all the cases... and this is how bugs creep in. /rant

Now then, where was I... ah, back to wasting that sweet sweet time!

I'm going to close this as WontFix; we don't usually use this tracker to track issues in custom Chromium builds. If you can reproduce a bug or crash in Chrome itself, we'd definitely be interested in tracking that. Thanks!
