libgcc unwinder on aarch64 fails to keep track of Pointer Authentication state and may try to authenticate return addresses that were not signed causing a runtime crash. Upstream report: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=94514 Patch sent upstream: https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2020-April/543641.html For the record, the kernel currently allows userspace Pointer Authentication, but AFAIK, all SUSE/openSUSE packages are compiled _without_ this feature. Nevertheless, users can compile their own packages with this feature enabled. Only ARMv8.3 (and later) hardware are affected.
