I also get this extremely often with KDELibs 4.14.8, for me it's the kwallet service that's crashing.

Comment 9 Milian Wolff 2015-06-02 08:02:25 UTC
I just found https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=197100 pointing to https://www.archlinux.org/news/changes-to-intel-microcodeupdates/ . Indeed, I was missing that on my arch box here and adding the opcode updater fixed the issue for me.

@everyone else: can you make sure to update your microcodes and check whether the problem still occurs?
Comment 10 Christoph Rüßler 2015-08-15 09:50:22 UTC
I just made sure my machine had the newest Intel microcodes installed (by following http://askubuntu.com/questions/545925/how-to-update-intel-microcode-properly).

Judging by the fact that the crash has not occured for a rather long time now, this issue seems to be solved on my machine.
Comment 11 Andreas Messer 2016-03-11 18:47:55 UTC
The microcode update just hides the problem. I suppose it disabled the TSX feature for your CPU. As far as I know there have been some bugs in the early implementations. On my new Skylake Xeon TSX is available and for me on almost every login a Bunch of KDE application crashes. They run properly after restarting them manually.
I have looked a little bit into the KShareDataCache code. It looks to me that there are a lot of places for exceptions or error returns which might leave the mutex in some locked or unlocked state when it is recreated afterwards. TSX seems to be very sensitive against wrong usage of mutexes.
For tests I have disabled TSX mutexes by setting the mutex type to "Error Checking Mutex". I did not observe any crashes since then. Here is the change I made:

Hi,

it's been 4 years ago since I have reported this bug. I think you can close it.
