error Command failed with signal "SIGSEGV"

[krzychukula]

I've tried using in in node/v22.22.0 on Mac (M5) and while running tests (vitest run) I get a fail with just:

error Command failed with signal "SIGSEGV".
info Visit https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/run for documentation about this command.

node-gyp rebuild (node v22.22.0)

If I try: npx node-gyp rebuild --directory=node_modules/re2

Then it still doesn't work, but instead of the signal I get additional stacktrace.

Node .v24

I've tried switching to Node v24 to see if this is fixed later but I just get a different error:

this may be a vitest problem: vitest-dev/vitest#3106

[uhop]

The easiest way is to see if it works with included tests:

• Clone the repo
• Optionally touch .development in its root
• Run npm i
• Run npm test
  • You can try npm run test:seq too

Multithreaded tests may have problems with native addons. Some time ago I spent time making sure that re2 worked properly in that environment, but since that time something has changed either in Node/V8/nan, or in google/re2 itself (multiple refactors to include Abseil). Errors are usually from guts of V8 so I suspect the former.

The alternative is to put a mutex on every call to Node/V8, which is insurmountable with C++ code of nan, e.g., how to "mutex" destructors is one of the immediately obvious problems. Of course, doing that will be detrimental to performance and kill any benefits of multithreading.

Personally I use a single-threaded approach and, when needed, spawn more processes.
