As you can see from this backtrace, seg fault is raised by loaded shared library libXyz.so. So how can I know from what point in code of this shared library, this seg fault was raised?
What is the use of addresses mentioned in start of each frame.
Please let me know if any more detail is needed.
So how can I know from what point in code of this shared library, this
seg fault was raised?
Try to rebuild everything from scratch with optimizations disabled (with -O0 or -Og) and with debug info enabled (-g). And make sure that you are not stripping resulting binaries (not running strip on them).
This should give you more meaningful stack traces with line numbers and file names.

I'm attempting to wrap a small library I've written in c, and I think I'm on the home stretch to getting it working. The library has some pretty solid tests around it, and I've ran it through valgrind to remove any memory leaks and glaring issues. It works pretty solid on it's own.
However, when I attempt to wrap it using ruby it segfaults. Here's an example project that wraps the library. When the tests in that project are ran, the call to the library segfaults. Running it results in a core abort which I've loaded in gdb to debug, but I'm not sure what's wrong. The core dump says the issue is on this line, but I have no idea what's causing it since the information given is pretty sparse and the code runs well if I run the tests in c land.
The line that the core dump says is segfaulting:
assert( yypParser->yytos!=0 );
You can reproduce it by running rake from the root directory which kicks of a process that ultimately generates a shared object that is loaded by the tests. I'm hoping someone with more experience in c can take a look and potentially point me in the right direction.
Please let me know if any more information is needed.

I am already using google-crashdumper but I want to try breakpad now. I have integrated google-breakpad in my project and I'm deliberately crashing the application to test the breakpad.
I am converting the minidump to core file and loading in the gdb as follows
gdb application --core=corefile.core
And the problem is there are no symbols from the shared library. It looks something like the following:

Just posting 2 threads. It is similar with every thread which is quite weird as I have provided my executable also to the gdb.
Then I compared the breakpad's core-file with crashdumper's core-file. In crashdumper core-file everything is being loaded perfectly. All the sysmbols from all the library. It is showing the thread program where the crash took place. But nothing as such in breakpad version.
What am I missing with breakpad?? I googled a lot but in vain. Didn't find anything and anyone facing such problem.
UPDATE
I might be knowing why it is behaving like that. I checked info sharedlibrary in gdb and found out following:

So it is looking for the shared library where it does not exists if I am not wrong. Even after I installed breakpad there was no such folder /varlib/breakpad.
Found the answer.

This patch was already applied but did not mentioned anywhere. For anyone who face such problem.
But still there is one problem with this. User can only provide one path and the libraries has been loaded from multiple paths. I don't know if this is already been implemented!!!
If all debug symblos are loaded - gdb backtrace shows something like:
#0 m4_traceon (obs=0x24eb0, argc=1, argv=0x2b8c8) at builtin.c:993
#1 0x6e38 in expand_macro (sym=0x2b600) at macro.c:242
#2 0x6840 in expand_token (obs=0x0, t=177664, td=0xf7fffb08) at macro.c:71
But I need something like:
#0 m4_traceon (obs=0x24eb0, argc=1, argv=0x2b8c8) at builtin.c:993 from Lib1.so
#1 0x6e38 in expand_macro (sym=0x2b600) at macro.c:242 from Lib2.so
#2 0x6840 in expand_token (obs=0x0, t=177664, td=0xf7fffb08) at macro.c:71 from MyApp
Is it possible?
There is no built-in way to do this. I think there is a bug in gdb bugzilla that you can track if you are interested.
However, if you really need this, you can rewrite bt in Python, and customize it to do whatever you like.
I have the following code:
std::ofstream stat("/opt/lic_status");
if ( stat.is_open() )
{
stat << ver;
stat.close();
}
My problem is that on the first line the execution is blocked. A coredump was generated by a watchdog during this block and it looks like this:
(gdb) bt

#8 basic_ofstream () at /usr/lib/gcc/i686-redhat-linux/4.4.4/../../../../include/c++/4.4.4/fstream:628
I need to mention that I don't know what was the state of the /opt/lic_status file when the problem occurred. I don't know if it was opened by other process or even if it existed at all.
Does anoyone have any suggestion on what could have caused this?
I only have the coredump, can I get any info out of it?
"I need to mention that I don't know what was the state of the
/opt/lic_status file when the problem occurred. I don't know if it was opened by other process or even if it existed at all."
Based on my understanding none of the above attribute/state of the file can lead the program to block on that particular line(.i.e. where user mode program is calling open() inside the std::ofstream constructor). Whenever user mode program calls open() system call to open the files, system would complete the call with appropriate error code. It will not be the case that system(kernel mode) would not return back to user mode.
Does anyone have any suggestion on what could have caused this? I
only have the coredump, can I get any info out of it?
Entire system(kernel) is not in good state(due to some unknown reason).
The program is multi threaded and some other threads has been stuck somewhere. By looking the call stack of this thread it looks OK as it is executing in the kernel mode and calling open() system call.
If we are experiencing the first case, then I believe we can not do much and core-dump file of the program would not give any extra information to identify/confirm this. Core-dump file just contains the snapshot of that particular process.
However, if we are in second case, then we should try to analyze core-dump file further. We can fire following commands in GDB command prompt once core-dump file is loaded.
$info threads
$thread apply all backtrace
The above command would give the information (if your program is multi-threaded) as well call stack of all threads. This might be helpful to understand your problem. You can ignore the above information if you have already done it.
I'm trying to find the reason for a segfault which is occurring on the level of system libraries.
I would like get some hints on how to use gdb to examine args of the getenv() call seen in the following stack trace.
As the trace shows - getenv() is not called directly by my code - call is nested in the chain of system calls initiated in my code. Call is starting with my routine a_logmsg() trying to get thread-safe localtime - localtime_r(), and getenv() is called later somewhere within the code of libc. OS is Solaris 8/SPARC.

I would like get some hints on how to use gdb to examine args of the getenv() call seen in the following stack trace.
The source for Solaris libc is available here.
You can examine argument to getenv by setting the breakpoint on it, and looking at the registers. You'll need to know the ABI that is used, but it's quite simple -- the argument to getenv is in register i0, and print (char*)$i0 at the (gdb) prompt should print "TZ".
Finally, the most likely reason for a crash in getenv is that you've corrupted the environment earlier. In particular, note that this code is bad:
void buggy()
{
char buf[80];
strcpy(buf, "FOO=BAR");
putenv(buf); // <-- BUG!
}
You could usually examine the environment via one of these commands:
(gdb) x/100s __environ
(gdb) x/100s environ
Chances are, you'll see strings there which do not contain the = sign.
