When I run MATLAB R2021b on my Linux machine, it occasionally crashes. The following error message appears in the terminal or at the top of the resulting crash stack trace:
Inconsistency detected by ld.so: ../elf/dl-tls.c: 597: _dl_allocate_tls_init: Assertion `listp != NULL' failed!
This crash primarily happens when I attempt to use Simulink for the first time after launching MATLAB.

This is a known issue in some releases of MATLAB.
Refer to the following External Bug Report for information on workarounds and fixes:

Putting the following in your startup.m file may also solve the problem, it seems to have for me:
open_system(new_system('abcdef123456')); bdclose('abcdef123456');
I got this from another issue regarding simulink crashes.

1. Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 has libcanberra-gtk3-module (gtk-3.0+) installed by default, and Matlab needs to call the gtk-2.0+ canberra dynamic link library;
(In fact, there is also a 2.0+ version of the dynamic link library file in the gtk-3.0+ directory, but it seems that Matlab does not support multiple versions of libcanberra-gtk-module.so under the same path)
2. the linux default library is found under the path "/usr/lib/", while the canberra dynamic link library is located under the path "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/";
Solution:
1. Install the gtk-2.0+ version of canberra by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install libcanberra-gtk-module -y
2. Add a soft connection, run the following command in the terminal (many people are missing this step):
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so /usr/lib/libcanberra-gtk-module.so

I have similar problem with MATLAB coder on R2022b (Ubuntu Linux 20.04.3)

Please add this case to the bug report: MATLAB might sporadically crash on Linux when starting Simulink (2632298).
This is really terrible behavior of latest releases of MATLAB on Linux platforms, which are officially declared by TMW as fully supported.
But the main problem is, that TMW officially suggest to apply unofficial patch to glibc (which is one of most importatnt library in Linux OS)??!!
