[Bug 2114521] [NEW] 🪲 JVM Crashes (SIGSEGV) with Ubuntu's OpenJDK 21 inside container running Minecraft server

[Davi De Castro Reis]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I’m running a Minecraft server using Crafty Controller on a Debian host,  
but the Crafty container uses Ubuntu’s OpenJDK 21,  
and the JVM is constantly crashing with SIGSEGV errors in random runtime stages.

Environment:
- Host OS: Debian GNU/Linux
- Crafty container base: Ubuntu 24.04
- Java version inside container:
  OpenJDK Runtime Environment (21.0.7+6-Ubuntu-0ubuntu124.04)
  OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 21.0.7+6-Ubuntu-0ubuntu124.04, mixed mode, compressed oops, tiered, g1 gc)
- Application: Minecraft server (Paper 1.21.4)
- Java command:
  java -XX:-TieredCompilation -XX:TieredStopAtLevel=3 -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:CompileCommand="exclude net/neoforged/srgutils/InternalUtils loadTinyV2" -Xms2G -Xmx8G -jar paper-1.21.4.jar nogui

Crash logs:

Crash 1:
SIGSEGV at pc=0x00007fc33c129d71, pid=122, tid=185  
Problematic frame:  
V  [libjvm.so+0x655d71]  Compile::identify_useful_nodes(Unique_Node_List&)+0x131

Crash 2 (after tweaking flags):
SIGSEGV at pc=0x00007fe6635021ec, pid=104, tid=275  
Problematic frame:  
V  [libjvm.so+0x8d61ec]  IndexSetIterator::advance_and_next()+0xbc

Sometimes multiple threads crash simultaneously, e.g.:
[thread 202 also had an error]

Additional notes:
- Crashes occur during random runtime stages, including server startup and plugin remapping.
- The JVM logs these segfaults but sometimes the server keeps running.
- Core dumps are disabled by default (ulimit -c).
- I can provide others hs_err_pid.log and replay_pid.log files if needed.

Please advise if this is a known issue or if there is a workaround for
Ubuntu’s OpenJDK 21 in this context.

Thanks in advance!
