    Description

      I wasn't quite sure where to post this since this is about the client API, but I am using the mariadb server code base directly and not the separate Connector/C library (yet).

      Anyway, I maintain an async mariadb client binding for node.js (mariasql) and for me it works fine on x86/x86-64 (I specifically used Ubuntu). However someone recently brought to my attention that they are getting a segfault on an RPi2 within mysql_real_connect_start. I verified this on an RPi2 of my own and am not able to track down the exact problem (mostly because of the coroutines not playing nicely with gdb?). I used the exact same code and connection settings between my main desktop and the RPi2 and no network traffic appears on the RPi2, so the problem must be occurring early on.

      There is only one frame in the backtrace that is inside the mariadb client library (and that is the one that shows mysql_real_connect_start), all of the other frames are within my binding and/or node.js itself. I could not get gdb to show the function arguments for some reason, but the individual that alerted me to this particular issue was able to get all of that extra information. Here is the frame they got from the backtrace (mariadb 10.0.21):

      #0 0x747a182c in mysql_real_connect_start (ret=0xbd6d20, mysql=0xbd6958, host=0xbc0790 "10.0.0.71", user=0xbb7f30 "root", passwd=0xbb82e8 "root", db=0x0, port=3306, unix_socket=0x0, client_flags=2147614720) at ../deps/libmariadbclient/sql-common/mysql_async.c:447

      If there is anything we can do to help narrow down the problem, let me know.
