Over all our workers we've 2070 coredumps of the same process so I fear we're missing an important bug here.
As you can see, the signals are mixed but most of them segfault (2077 segfaults, 14 aborts over all our workers).
You can find one of these coredumps here: http://files.glados.qa.suse.de/example_coredump.tar.xz (unfortunately it is too big to upload to progress directly) or get one for yourself with coredumpctl dump $DESIRED_PID -o outfile.dump.

Steps to reproduce

On OSD: sudo salt -l error -C 'G@roles:worker' cmd.run 'coredumpctl list' . The same also happens on o3.

To reproduce locally what seems to work:

  • create a simple vars.json file, e.g. get from openqa.opensuse.org
  • start test with isotovideo -d which at least goes as far as calling the first functions from testapi, e.g. "assert_screen"
  • kill the "autotest" process, e.g. with pkill -f autotest
  • check if there is a core dump recorded, e.g. coredumpctl --since=today
