I also tried the pretty-printer example, and tried with/without optimization, with/without debuginfo.
I have no idea, what patches are applied for Fedora release (can u tell me the git? repositories?). In my eyes, gdb is not a special Fedora product. When the bug is fixed there, it is fine for Fedora, but the fix should go back to trunk. In the current gdb-cvs trunk the bug still exists. I just checked out the current cvs version and tried my testcase again. My current system is Ubuntu/natty. As you can see below, the outer gdb is the distros gdb, the inner gdb is the one from cvs. ---- As mentioned in my initial posting, i tried this also on a machine with ia64 cores (and SUSE SLES10SP3 with SGI ProPack 6SP6). There i just got a surprising result while running the test with current cvs version: (gdb) source pptest.py (gdb) python >for i in range(10000): > gdb.execute("info locals", False, True) >end [Inferior 1 (process 115483) exited with code 01] (gdb) where the last (gdb) prompt is of the outer gdb instance. This behaviour is reproducable on this machine. As the inner gdb instanc dies quiet, i get no backtrace. When i run the "info locals" manually and press the return-key, after about 40-50 executions of "info locals" i get the segfault - the backtrace is listed below. For me it seems like the rollback of fast repeated function calls from inferior fails and overwrites gdb-own datastructures - this is not reproducible when i hit the return key after each execution of "info locals". ------------- backtrace on the Ubuntu/x86_64 machine --------------- GNU gdb (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.2-1ubuntu11) 7.2 Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

I tried to replicate the bug again, but I cannot. I will ask the ia64 maintainer to look at the issue and see if this is architecture specific. Reproducible for me on Fedora 15 x86_64, it crashes, used:
./gdb -nx ./pptest -ex 'source pptest.py' -ex 'b 26' -ex r -ex 'source loop.cmd'
loop.cmd:
while 1
info locals
end
The problem is during the pretty printer an inferior call is made. Any inferior call invalidates frame cache, any frame_info * gets invalid. frame_id would remain valid. The variables printing functions do not expect frame_info * gets invalid.
Suggesting either modifying the GDB functions involved to use frame_id instead of frame_info * or somehow pre-pretty-print the variables in advance.

To reproduce my failure (see bt) just run the code below, set breakpoint to return of main, load the python-script and "info local" till segfault. Tested this with 7.1, 7.2 on x86_64 and ia64. In my application, i get this segfault for the first "info local" in some cases. ----------------- bt ----------------- #0 0x40000000000b8a90 in frame_unwind_arch (next_frame=0x0) at frame.c:2061 #1 0x40000000000b8a20 in get_frame_arch (this_frame=0x600000000010c830) at frame.c:2055 #2 0x400000000057c1a0 in dwarf_expr_read_reg (baton=0x607ffffffff4dd78, dwarf_regnum=12) at dwarf2loc.c:140 #3 0x4000000000757e80 in execute_stack_op (ctx=0x6000000000417920, op_ptr=0x60000000001f2ae9 "", op_end=0x60000000001f2ae9 "") at dwarf2expr.c:572 #4 0x40000000007567c0 in dwarf_expr_eval (ctx=0x6000000000417920, addr=0x60000000001f2ae6 "\222\f ", len=3) at dwarf2expr.c:251 #5 0x4000000000580f20 in dwarf2_evaluate_loc_desc (type=0x6000000000217640, frame=0x600000000010c830, data=0x60000000001f2ae6 "\222\f ", size=3, per_cu=0x60000000001f2c90) at dwarf2loc.c:920 #6 0x40000000005865e0 in locexpr_read_variable (symbol=0x60000000002175d0, frame=0x600000000010c830) at dwarf2loc.c:1882 #7 0x40000000002ed500 in read_var_value (var=0x60000000002175d0, frame=0x600000000010c830) at findvar.c:542 #8 0x400000000036f0b0 in print_variable_and_value (name=0x60000000001f2adf "k", var=0x60000000002175d0, frame=0x600000000010c830, stream=0x600000000019f9a0, indent=0) at ./printcmd.c:1956 #9 0x4000000000414a30 in do_print_variable_and_value (print_name=0x60000000001f2adf "k", sym=0x60000000002175d0, cb_data=0x607ffffffff4e008) at stack.c:1587 #10 0x4000000000414790 in iterate_over_block_locals (b=0x60000000002177e0, cb=@0x4000000000c95470: 0x4000000000414950 <do_print_variable_and_value>, cb_data=0x607ffffffff4e008) at stack.c:1487 #11 0x40000000004148a0 in iterate_over_block_local_vars (block=0x60000000002177e0, cb=@0x4000000000c95470: 0x4000000000414950 <do_print_variable_and_value>, cb_data=0x607ffffffff4e008) at stack.c:1557 #12 0x4000000000414bd0 in print_frame_local_vars (frame=0x600000000010c830, num_tabs=0, stream=0x600000000019f9a0) at stack.c:1611 #13 0x4000000000414dc0 in locals_info (args=0x0, from_tty=1) at stack.c:1698 #14 0x40000000001c5a10 in do_cfunc (c=0x60000000000fa760, args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ./cli/cli-decode.c:67 #15 0x40000000001cf470 in cmd_func (cmd=0x60000000000fa760, args=0x0, from_tty=1) at ./cli/cli-decode.c:1771 #16 0x400000000008fc00 in execute_command (p=0x60000000000adb1c "", from_tty=1) at top.c:422 #17 0x400000000043df10 in command_handler (command=0x60000000000adb10 "info locals ") at event-top.c:498 #18 0x400000000043ee30 in command_line_handler (rl=0x6000000000418c20 "\001") at event-top.c:662 #19 0x40000000007ad910 in rl_callback_read_char () at callback.c:205 #20 0x400000000043beb0 in rl_callback_read_char_wrapper (client_data=0x0) at event-top.c:178 #21 0x400000000043db20 in stdin_event_handler (error=0, client_data=0x0) at event-top.c:433 #22 0x4000000000438c90 in handle_file_event (data={ptr = 0x6000000000000000, integer = 0}) at event-loop.c:817 #23 0x40000000004367b0 in process_event () at event-loop.c:399 #24 0x4000000000436a70 in gdb_do_one_event (data=0x0) at event-loop.c:452 #25 0x4000000000423080 in catch_errors (func=0x200000000056d1f0, func_args=0x0, errstring=0x4000000000bc2218 "", mask=6) at exceptions.c:518 #26 0x4000000000215f00 in tui_command_loop (data=0x0) at ./tui/tui-interp.c:171 #27 0x4000000000424bf0 in current_interp_command_loop () at interps.c:291 #28 0x400000000006cfd0 in captured_command_loop (data=0x0) at ./main.c:227 #29 0x4000000000423080 in catch_errors (func=@0x4000000000c95070: 0x400000000006cfa0 <captured_command_loop>, func_args=0x0, errstring=0x4000000000ba15f0 "", mask=6) at exceptions.c:518 #30 0x40000000000700f0 in captured_main (data=0x607ffffffff4e460) at ./main.c:910 #31 0x4000000000423080 in catch_errors (func=@0x4000000000c9bd50: 0x400000000006d080 <captured_main>, func_args=0x607ffffffff4e460, errstring=0x4000000000ba15f0 "", mask=6) at exceptions.c:518 #32 0x4000000000070170 in gdb_main (args=0x607ffffffff4e460) at ./main.c:919 #33 0x400000000006c700 in main (argc=2, argv=0x607ffffffff4e728) at gdb.c:34 ----------------- pptest.c ----------------- enum test_enum{ zero, one, two, three, four, five, };
