I have some work around patches to filter out the uninitialized local variables by compare the current instruction line and the declaration line of the variable. Thus avoid the crash. See: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-12/msg00034.html Created attachment 7017 [details]
gdb log about the crash
Today, I managed to find one crash problem. See the debug log (crash.txt) as attachment. I use the same sample program to create a "a1.exe", then one debugger_gdb to start a debugee_gdb, then let the debugee_gdb to load stlc++ python script, then a1.exe was loaded in debugee_gdb, and I can make debugee_gdb crash when simply type "p v" command (At the time v is a std::vector auto variable which was not initialized). Look at the bt, you can see that gdb (in apply_val_pretty_printer function call) try to malloc a big buffer which size is 2009291924. (gdb) up

336 val_print_string (type, encoding, addr, (int) length,
337 stream, &local_opts);
338 }
339 else
340 {
(gdb) p length
$9 = 2009291924
(gdb) p local_opts
$10 = {pretty = Val_pretty_default, prettyprint_arrays = 0,
prettyprint_structs = 0, vtblprint = 0, unionprint = 1, addressprint = 0,
objectprint = 0, print_max = 200, repeat_count_threshold = 10,
output_format = 0, format = 0, stop_print_at_null = 0,
print_array_indexes = 0, deref_ref = 0, static_field_print = 1,
pascal_static_field_print = 1, raw = 0, summary = 0, symbol_print = 1}
(gdb)
See the log above, it looks like the gdbpy_extract_lazy_string gives the wrong value "length = 2009291924", and the local_opts.print_max = 200. So in this case, do we need to compare those two values, and set length to local_opts.print_max?

Yuanhui Zhang OK, I think the pushed fix in Bug #16196 (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16196#c2) should also fix this bug. Look at the crash report in comment 2, I have such backtrace: #0 malloc_failure (size=2009291924) at ../../gdb/gdb/utils.c:1049 #1 0x00634f3a in xmalloc (size=2009291924) at ../../gdb/gdb/common/common-utils.c:53 #2 0x004e4bc7 in read_string (addr=2293384, len=2009291924, width=1, fetchlimit=200, byte_order=BFD_ENDIAN_LITTLE, buffer=0x298f584, bytes_read=0x298f588) at ../../gdb/gdb/valprint.c:1804 #3 0x004e66f8 in val_print_string (elttype=0x4bad438, encoding=0x0, addr=2293384, len=2009291924, stream=0x2ec2f68, options=0x298f5e4) at ../../gdb/gdb/valprint.c:2475 #4 0x0046ecfe in print_string_repr (printer=0x31075f8, hint=0x58a91e8 "string", stream=0x2ec2f68, recurse=1, options=0x298f9d4, language=0x7ee360 <cplus_language_defn>, gdbarch=0x2ebd520) at ../../gdb/gdb/python/py-prettyprint.c:336 The final reason is that xmalloc(size=2009291924) get a two large and random size value. My fix in comment 5 try to limit the size in function print_string_repr(), which is located as 4th frame in the backtrace above. The fix in Bug #16196 did a better job, because it limit the size in read_string() function, which is second frame in the backtrace, so it fixed in a lower level. Many other cases which call read_string() is fixed now. I just build the current gdb git HEAD, and did some test again, GDB.exe did not crash on showing un-initialized variables. So, I personally think this bug is fixed now, what do you guys think? Thanks. See the text for PR 16286 for more discussion of this issue. *** Bug 260998 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Seen from the domain http://volichat.com Page where seen: http://volichat.com/adult-chat-rooms Marked for reference.

I think so too, so can we close this? I think the crash issue I reported about 10 years ago is fixed already. I use GDB under Windows day by day, and I haven't seen GDB crashed on an initialized variable for a very long time. Fixed some time ago. |
Hi, I still get gdb crashed when showing local variables. Here is the test code: OS: windows xp GDB: clean gdb cvs snapshot weekly 2010 10 12 build with python support GCC: TDM-MinGW GCC 4.5.1 so, the program is build with -g (by default, it use the dwarf-2 format, I have just tested by using -gdwarf-3, there's the same crash) it seems gdb crashed when trying to show the vector : std::vector<std::string> v = {"a", "b", "c"}; , this is an uninitialized variable. Tested under codeblocks IDE Just set a break-point in the first statement of main(). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include <wx/wx.h> #include <string> #include <map> #include <list> #include <stack> #include <vector> int main() { wxString wxStr(L"wxString"); // ********set a break-point here ******* wxStr += L" Value"; std::string stdStr("std::string"); stdStr.append(" value"); std::map<int, std::string> m; m[0] = "000"; m[1] = "111"; wxString& wxStrRef = wxStr; wxStrRef += L" Ref"; std::string& stdStrRef = stdStr; stdStrRef += " Ref"; std::list<std::string> l = {"a", "b", "c"}; std::vector<std::string> v = {"a", "b", "c"}; std::stack<std::string> s; s.push("a"); s.push("b"); return 0; } --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the full debugger log : --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Command-line: D:\code\mingw451tdm\bin\gdb.exe -nx -fullname -quiet -args bin/cmd.exe Working dir : F:\cb\test_code\gdbpython-demo\ > set prompt >>>>>>cb_gdb: Reading symbols from F:\cb\test_code\gdbpython-demo/bin/cmd.exe...done.

Here are some reference: 1. andr's reply of my original post in gdb maillist http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2010-06/msg00082.html 2. andr's post in QT site http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2009/06/22/peek-and-poke/#comment-4269 Itâs ânot readyâ yet. The gdb python âpretty-printersâ have serious problems with uninitialized and/or damaged C++ objects. I understand work to fix that is going on, but from my point of view it is not ready for shipping yet. 3. gdb bugzilla http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11407 The bug seems been fixed, but I think it still exists.
