Yes. It also hard crashes the host Mac when run inside a Linux VM in Parallels.
Read the above sentence again. It escapes VM isolation.
It also crashes the whole machine on a Microsoft Surface tablet with the same chip in it.
So three OSes, and it escapes VM isolation. It's a hardware bug.
Mitigation so far is to try to use exotic JVM options to make the JIT be less clever and not emit whatever the offending code is... but we don't know what it is, so it's shooting in the dark.
- google234123 6y agoYou sure it's not a bug with the VM? VMs often have bugs.
- api 6y agoIf it's a VM bug then why does it also happen on other OSes without running a VM? The same bit of software: * Crashes the OS when running native, where OS is Windows, Mac, and Linux. * Crashes the host OS from inside a VM running Linux or Windows. I can't think of any explanation other than a hardware bug. How can the same crash happening inside and outside a VM on multiple OSes be anything else?
