A backtrace would be good. If indeed the frame doesn't have a valid id, then it'd be a bug in the unwinder. Hi Pedro, the problem was in rs6000_frame_cache, where a read_memory_unsigned_integer would throw an exception if the stack is invalid. This exception was caught somewhere higher up in the frame unwinding logic, but this lead to a situation where frame 0 was marked invalid, which the rest of GDB doesn't really handle well. Edjunior has already posted a patch to the list. Ah, indeed, hadn't seen it yet: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-09/msg00377.html This is an automated email from the git hooks/post-receive script. It was
generated because a ref change was pushed to the repository containing
the project "gdb and binutils".

PR tdep/17379: Fix internal-error when stack pointer is invalid.
The problem is that rs6000_frame_cache attempts to read the stack backchain via
read_memory_unsigned_integer, which throws an exception if the stack pointer is
invalid. With this patch, it calls safe_read_memory_integer instead, which
doesn't throw an exception and allows for safe handling of that situation.
