Bug Description

Running thunderbird on my arm64 box gives me the following backtrace.

Description: Ubuntu 17.04
Release: 17.04

0x0000ffffb60764a8 <+104>: and x0, x0, #0x7ffffff00000
   0x0000ffffb60764ac <+108>: add x0, x0, #0xff, lsl #12
=> 0x0000ffffb60764b0 <+112>: ldr x20, [x0, #4080]

That indicates a pointer is being clamped to 47 bits which is wrong. could this be rebuilt please ?

I realize that "rebuild" isn't sufficient here. The thing I hear is that there was a mistaken assumption about VA size in Thunderbird and there were fixes in upstream firefox / js engine for it and this part was not rebuilt when Thunderbird was rebuilt for this release.

Regardless of whether the fix maybe a rebuild or not , the thunderbird package is completely borked on 17.04 on arm64.

Ok on doing further research I'm reliably informed that this patch

https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/dfaafbaaa291

might be a fix to the problem.

It appears that this isn't included in the source base on a quick inspection. I'm traveling in the next week so I won't be able to test this very soon with a rebuild myself, but hopefully this gives some more help.

apologies that my original bug report wasn't useful enough.

We suspect this should be fixed in the upcoming releases of Thundrbird 52.x ... If you want a sneak peek, you can have a poke at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-security/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages but I'd expect those packages (or newer) to hit the archive shortly.
