Description:
Intellij Idea fails to start due to JRE SIGSEGV error

see the attached file for full log.

JRE top stack frames:
j com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKStyle.nativeGetXThickness(I)I+0 java.desktop@11.0.10
j com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKStyle.<init>(Ljava/awt/Font;Lcom/sun/java/swing/plaf/gtk/GTKEngine$WidgetType;)V+24 java.desktop@11.0.10
j com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKStyleFactory.getStyle(Ljavax/swing/JComponent;Ljavax/swing/plaf/synth/Region;)Ljavax/swing/plaf/synth/SynthStyle;+310 java.desktop@11.0.10

Everything was fine before a jdk11-openjdk update (11.0.8.u10-1 -> 11.0.10.u8-1).
Reverting to the previous jdk version fixes the problem.

here is a bug with a very similar stack trace - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8255790


Additional info:
* package version(s)
intellij-idea-community-edition 2:2021.3.1-2

Steps to reproduce:
- update jdk and jre to 11.0.10.u8-1
- run intellij idea
   java_error_in_idea_2116.log (115.7 KiB)

nice analysis thanks for the report. can you try if its working if you rebuild openjdk11 with the mentioned patch reverted?

By downgrading to jdk/jre 11.0.8 intellij is working.

@Helge, that has already been pointed out in the description please dont duplicate info :)
What would help is testing the revert I have pointed out in the comment.

OpenJDK 15 also doesn't work. And OpenJDK8 isn't longer supported.

@Levente oh I am sorry, what do you mean by "mentioned patch reverted" then?
Comment by Levente Polyak (anthraxx) - Monday, 11 January 2021, 13:13 GMT
The comments in https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8255790 mention that reverting the patch for https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8249821 may address the problem

Please test 11.0.10.u8-2 i've enabled system harfbuzz and give feedback if that works for you
