10.4.0 can't compile on Raspberry Pi 3B+ (Segmentation fault)

[gounthar]

• Version: 10.4.0
• Platform: Linux black-pearl 4.14.34-hypriotos-v7+ deps: update openssl to 1.0.1j #1 SMP Sun Apr 22 14:57:31 UTC 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux
• Subsystem: Distributor ID: Raspbian
  Description: Raspbian GNU/Linux 9.4 (stretch)
  Release: 9.4
  Codename: stretch

As I was trying to compile rethinkdb 2.3.6 on the Pi, the 0.12.2 node dependency did not want to compile because of a segmentation fault at some point.
I decided to try the 10.4.0 version to see if this issue had gone, but I am facing another segmentation fault at another file.

Does your machine config (compiler and binutils) meet the requirements here:

It looks ok to me...
Thanks.

Re-pinging @rvagg on this one...

I've just done a compile of 10.4.0 from source download on a Pi 3 and it's completed just fine and I have a working node binary.

This is vanilla Raspbian. So I'm going to suggest that this is either a problem with HypriotOS or your hardware.

Note that we make armv7l binaries available for download if you want to use them. I'm not sure if that's possible with RethinkDB though. Unfortunately, without anything additional to go on here I don't think there's anything we can do to help.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I will try it too on a vanilla Raspbian and see if that works for me too.
As for rethinkdb, so many things have changed since then. The rebirthdb now compiles for aarch64, rethinkdb/rethinkdb#28 (comment) so I'll give it another try on the Pi one of these days.
