Crash related to PhysX (bug in PhysX 3.4)

Unity Engine
1

Hello,

I have so many of these similar crash reports in Unity analytics dashboard, but can not understand where the crash is happening. Can anyone please help with this Native StackTrace? I am using Unity 2019.1.8 and Android build with IL2CPP and also uploaded the symbol file to the analytics dashboard. But there are some symbol missing in the stack trace. I can not understand how to find where the crash is happening. The Logs tab in the report also does not contain any error. Please help.

Iin line 4, 5, 6, 7 it is something related to physx. I don’t see any crash in any of my devices. These are only on Unity Analytics, there are also so many crashes in Google Play Console, but those reports are even more hard to understand as those contains only some numbers. Somebody please help me.

The report title is:
Native Crash - CrashReporting::Android::SignalHandler(int, siginfo*, void*) (Unknown File)

The crash reports in Unity Analytics and Google Play Console are so different, the crashes in Unity analytics are mostly about physx but in play console the crashes don’t have much information (see the report below). And the crashes in unity analytics are all in android os version 4.4.4 but in play console mostly android os version 8.1 and 8.0. So I don’t understand how crashes don’t match. It means analytics crashes are not in play console and vise versa. Someone please help.

I found a crash issue reported in the nvidia physx github which is related to this crash in Unity I mentioned in the first post, the same function PxsNphaseImplementationContext::unregisterContactManager. The guys from nvidia said there is a bug in physx version 3.4 which is the new physx version in Unity. And they posted some fix in the thread link below:
https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/PhysX/issues/48

Please have a look at the link, and as it is a bug in physx engine itself we can not fix it in script. It really needs to be fixed as it it causing so many crashes.

Is there anybody from Unity looking at this? This is a big issue because the crash bug is in the PhysX engine version 3.4 inside Unity. Please somebody from Unity look into the issue. You can check the bug in official PhysX forum link in the previous post.

I don’t know why it posted the code in emoji format? it’s supposed to be double : I guess anything with “:p” results in emoji?
