Crashes on Linux

Every time I call import jnius, java crashes and outputs this:

#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  SIGBUS (0x7) at pc=0x00007fc1d6823f02, pid=7, tid=0x00007fc1e9c5e700

This only happens on Linux (Ubuntu 16.04 and CentOS 7), it works on macOS. I built a Docker container to reproduce the issue:

FROM python:3.5

RUN wget --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u131-b11/d54c1d3a095b4ff2b6607d096fa80163/jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz

RUN mkdir /opt/jdk
RUN tar -zxf jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz -C /opt/jdk

RUN update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_131/bin/java 100
RUN update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_131/bin/javac 100

ENV JAVA_HOME /opt/jdk/jdk1.8.0_131

RUN pip install Cython
RUN pip install pyjnius

CMD python -c "import jnius"

docker build . -t jniusbug
docker run --rm jniusbug

A workaround to make it work on newer kernels:

import jnius_config
jnius_config.add_options('-Xss1280k')
import jnius

[KeyWeeUsr]

Yup, that’s an upstream issue and is documented even on Cloudera Enterprise

If you cannot apply the kernel update, you can set the Java thread stack size to -Xss1280k for the affected services using the appropriate Java configuration option or the environment advanced configuration snippet, as detailed below.
