Yep, Otto reported the same thing earlier today:
the p executable 64bit V1.0.1 worked fine on Ubuntu 20.04.x. Yesterday I upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04 - the p executable crashes with a segmentation violation ...
Something similar happened a while back, eventually traced to the kernel being recompiled with different stack alignment options.
Be warned it took me a very long time to figure out a fix for that - so unfortunately I'm probably not the best person to ask! ! !
You could try googling for recent kernel changes, or maybe see if gdb and friends offer any better clues...
Probably something on https://kernelnewbies.org/LinuxChanges - one of the tips on that site is to run something called dmesg...
You may want to look into https://support.starlabs.systems/kb/guides/install-an-alternative-kernel to see whether an older or newer kernel fixes things.
Also, "./phix -d p64.exu" should produce a list.asm if you've (somehow) got a machine address where it's going wrong,
though you may very well need to generate that on a different machine.
