Asterisk might coredump with "Illegal instruction", caused by: | => 0x0000000000451b9b <+43>: prefetchw 0x4f0(%rbx) PrefetchW is an AMD instruction and causes a fatal trap on certain (older) Intel CPUs, e.g. see https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52411 A system where Asterisk coredumps is for example: | root@spce:~# grep -e cpu -e model /proc/cpuinfo | cpu family : 15 | model : 4 | model name : Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz | cpu MHz : 2793.412 | cpuid level : 5 | cpu family : 15 | model : 4 | model name : Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz | cpu MHz : 2793.412 | cpuid level : 5 | | root@spce:~# dmidecode | [...] | BIOS Information | Vendor: Dell Computer Corporation | Version: A04 | Release Date: 09/22/2005 | [...] | Base Board Information | Manufacturer: Dell Computer Corporation | Product Name: 0U9971 | Version: A03 | [...] | Processor Information | Socket Designation: PROC_1 | Type: Central Processor | Family: Xeon | Manufacturer: Intel | ID: 43 0F 00 00 FF FB EB BF | Signature: Type 0, Family 15, Model 4, Stepping 3 | Flags: | FPU (Floating-point unit on-chip) | VME (Virtual mode extension) | DE (Debugging extension) | PSE (Page size extension) | TSC (Time stamp counter) | MSR (Model specific registers) | PAE (Physical address extension) | MCE (Machine check exception) | CX8 (CMPXCHG8 instruction supported) | APIC (On-chip APIC hardware supported) | SEP (Fast system call) | MTRR (Memory type range registers) | PGE (Page global enable) | MCA (Machine check architecture) | CMOV (Conditional move instruction supported) | PAT (Page attribute table) | PSE-36 (36-bit page size extension) | CLFSH (CLFLUSH instruction supported) | DS (Debug store) | ACPI (ACPI supported) | MMX (MMX technology supported) | FXSR (FXSAVE and FXSTOR instructions supported) | SSE (Streaming SIMD extensions) | SSE2 (Streaming SIMD extensions 2) | SS (Self-snoop) | HTT (Multi-threading) | TM (Thermal monitor supported) | [...] By not selecting this wrong CPU type we can avoid triggering this issue.
