Possible glibc issue on x86_64 linux systems

[gotbadger]

Description

Currently on linux it looks like we are seeing some segfaults with some users that have the x86_64 instruction set. This is somewhat unexpected as we compile for amd64 here which should be compatible

uname -a

works:

Linux hostname 5.10.0-21-amd64 #1 MP Debian 5.10.162-1 (2023-01-21) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Linux hostname 5.15.0-67-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 22 14:14:39 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

does not work:

Linux hostname 5.15.0-50-generic #56~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 27 15:51:29 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Linux hostname 5.13.0-1031-aws #35~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jun 13 22:30:30 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Linux hostname 5.15.0-69-generic #76~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 20 15:54:19 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

There a discussion here, explaining that for using statically linked binary you need the same version of glibc.
rust-lang/libc#2054

Happy debugging folks, if this can help.. :)

We are trying to work out the best approach to this one as its a bit tricky. In the meantime if you have this issue you can always either:

• run the command via docker run
• compile your own version for your system

Yup don't worry, I picked the docker right away, I was just giving feedbacks in case it'd help ;)

Currently working towards a solution here #921

[gotbadger]

We've found a performance regression as a result of our fix and we are continuing to investigate and will release a new version as soon as we can. #925

@laluka We've just released 1.4.0 which should fix this issue. Please can you try it out and let us know if it's resolved for you.

bearer_1.4.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz -> Works like a charm! ;)
