Is this replacing raspberrypi/linux#6170? You seem to have found a page (or class of pages) that causes Chromium to exhaust the firmware's resources, and are now mining a rich seam of similar but non-identical problems. |
I'm not sure, but at a glance yes - it seems that this issue leads to issue raspberrypi/linux#6170. I discovered it because I'm tired from system freeze issue which started to happens very often since kernel 6.6.28 or something like that. So I tried to find a short steps to reproduce it and found this issue. Note, that when this firmware crash happens for a first time it don't leads to a system freeze, like it described in #6170, but I believe that this firmware crash is a root of cause for system freeze which happens later when this firmware crash happens (maybe several times). Also after this firmware crash something is going wrong in firmware, because it leads to problems with some video playback and no way to properly reboot the system with sudo reboot, because it hung the system on waiting for process end. Hope it will be fixed soon, because it leads to unexpected system freeze and crash, which leads to lose unsaved work. |
looks like today update for At least with original steps to reproduce I can play videos with no crash. |
After some runtime with new updates, I confirm that system crash issue due to playing video on browser disappears. Now there is no crash, but sometimes the following error appears in the log, but now it happens rare and don't lead to system crash:

it looks like issue is fixed with updates, running for several days with no issue. So, I close the issue |
Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
Describe the bug
attempt to play videos on chromium browser leads to fatal firmware crash. When it happens it also lead to complete system freeze after some runtime.
When this crash happens, attempt to run
sudo reboot
leads to a system hung on waiting for process end...** Steps to reproduce**
dmesg -w
Expected result: videos are played with no firmware crash
Actual result: on third video (flying fox) you can notice some strange delays in playback. Forth video will have problems to play, but there is still no errors in the log. But on video #5 (Wild dogs are running predators) you can catch firmware crash. See log for details.
System
