一旦一个程序发生了越界访问,cpu 就会产生相应的保护,于是 segmentation fault 就出现了,通过上面的解释,段错误应该就是访问了不可访问的内存,这个内存区要么是不存在的,要么是受到系统保护的,还有可能是缺少文件或者文件损坏。
下面是一些典型的段错误的原因:
非关联化空指针——这是特殊情况由内存管理硬件
试图访问一个不存在的内存地址(在进程的地址空间)
试图访问内存的程序没有权利(如内核结构流程上下文)
试图写入只读存储器(如代码段)
在C代码,分割错误通常发生由于指针的错误使用,特别是在C动态内存分配。非关联化一个空指针总是导致段错误,但野指针和悬空指针指向的内存,可能会或可能不会存在,而且可能或不可能是可读的还是可写的,因此会导致瞬态错误。
#include
int main (void)
{
int *ptr = NULL;
*ptr = 0;
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
现在,非关联化这些变量可能导致段错误:非关联化空指针通常会导致段错误,阅读时从野指针可能导致随机数据但没有段错误,和阅读从悬空指针可能导致有效数据,然后随机数据覆盖。
#include
int main (void)
{
int *ptr = (int *)0;
*ptr = 100;
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
写入只读存储器提出了一个 segmentation fault,这个发生在程序写入自己的一部分代码段或者是只读的数据段,这些都是由操作系统加载到只读存储器。
#include
#include
int main (void)
{
char *ptr = "test";
strcpy (ptr, "TEST");
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
#include
int main (void)
{
char *ptr = "hello";
*ptr = 'H';
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
上述例子ANSI C代码通常会导致段错误和内存保护平台。它试图修改一个字符串文字,这是根据ANSI C标准未定义的行为。大多数编译器在编译时不会抓,而是编译这个可执行代码,将崩溃。包含这个代码被编译程序时,字符串“hello”位于rodata部分程序的可执行文件的只读部分数据段。当加载时,操作系统与其他字符串和地方常数只读段的内存中的数据。当执行时,一个变量 ptr 设置为指向字符串的位置,并试图编写一个H字符通过变量进入内存,导致段错误。编译程序的编译器不检查作业的只读的位置在编译时,和运行类unix操作系统产生以下运行时发生 segmentation fault。
可以纠正这个代码使用一个数组而不是一个字符指针,这个栈上分配内存并初始化字符串的值:
#include
int main (void)
{
char ptr[] = "hello";
ptr[0] = 'H';
return 0;
}
即使不能修改字符串(相反,这在C标准未定义行为),在C char *类型,所以没有隐式转换原始代码,在c++的 const char *类型,因此有一个隐式转换,所以编译器通常会抓住这个特定的错误。
因为是一个很常见的程序错误空指针废弃(读或写在一个空指针,用于C的意思是“没有对象指针”作为一个错误指示器),大多数操作系统内存访问空指针的地址,这样它会导致段错误。
#include
int main (void)
{
int *ptr = NULL;
printf ("%d\n", *ptr);
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
这个示例代码创建了一个空指针,然后试图访问它的值(读值)。在运行时在许多操作系统中,这样做会导致段错误。
非关联化一个空指针,然后分配(写一个值到一个不存在的目标)也通常会导致段错误。
#include
int main (void)
{
int *ptr = NULL;
*ptr = 1;
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
下面的代码包含一个空指针,但当编译通常不会导致段错误,值是未使用的。因此,废弃通常会被优化掉,死代码消除。
#include
int main (void)
{
int *ptr = NULL;
*ptr;
return 0;
}
还有,比如malloc 动态分配内存,释放、置空完成后,不可再使用该指针。
#include
#include
#include
int main()
{
char* str=(char* )malloc(100);
if(*str)
{
return;
}
strcpy(str,"hello");
printf("%s\n",str);
free(str);
str=NULL;
strcpy(str,"abcdef");
return 0;
}
输出结果:
hello
段错误 (核心已转储)
#include
#include
int main (void)
{
main ();
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
上述例子的无限递归,导致的堆栈溢出会导致段错误,但无线递归未必导致堆栈溢出,优化执行的编译器和代码的确切结构。在这种情况下,遥不可及的代码(返回语句)行为是未定义的。因此,编译器可以消除它,使用尾部调用优化,可能导致没有堆栈使用。其他优化可能包括将递归转换成迭代,给出例子的结构功能永远会导致程序运行,虽然可能不是其他堆栈溢出。
#include
int main (void)
{
char test[10];
printf ("%c\n", test[100000]);
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
程序发生段错误时,提示信息很少,下面有几种查看段错误的发生信息的途径。
dmesg 可以在应用程序崩溃时,显示内存中保存的相关信息。如下所示,通过 dmesg 命令可以查看发生段错误的程序名称、引起段错误发生的内存地址、指令指针地址、堆栈指针地址、错误代码、错误原因等。
root@#dmesg

使用gcc编译程序的源码时,加上 -g 参数,这样可以使得生成的二进制文件中加入可以用于 gdb 调试的有用信息。
参看:C语言再学习 -- GCC编译过程
可产生供gdb调试用的可执行文件,大小明显比只用-o选项编译汇编连接后的文件大。

#include

*ptr = 10;
return 0;
}
输出结果:
段错误(核心已转储)
这个是看似最简单,但往往很多情况下十分有效的调试方式,也许可以说是程序员用的最多的调试方式。简单来说,就是在程序的重要代码附近加上像 printf 这类输出信息,这样可以跟踪并打印出段错误在代码中可能出现的位置。
为了方便使用这种方法,可以使用条件编译指令 #define DEBUG 和 #endif 把 printf 函数包起来。这样在程序编译时,如果加上 -DDEBUG 参数就可以查看调试信息;否则不加上参数就不会显示调试信息。
参看:C语言再学习 -- C 预处理器
A、为了能够使用 gdb 调试程序,在编译阶段加上 -g 参数。
root@# gcc -g test.c
B、使用 gdb 命令调试程序
root@# gdb a.out
GNU gdb (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.4-2012.02-0ubuntu2) 7.4-2012.02

(gdb)
C、进入 gdb 后,运行程序
(gdb) r
Starting program: /home/tarena/project/c_test/a.out
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x080483c4 in main () at test.c:6
6 *ptr = 10;
(gdb)
从输出看出,程序收到 SIGSEGV 信号,触发段错误,并提示地址 0x080483c4、创建了一个空指针,然后试图访问它的值(读值)。
可以通过man 7 signal查看SIGSEGV的信息

D、完成调试后,输入 q 命令退出 gdb
(gdb) q
A debugging session is active.
Inferior 1 [process 3483] will be killed.
Quit anyway? (y or n) y
A、仅当能确定程序一定会发生段错误的情况下适用。
B、当程序的源码可以获得的情况下,使用 -g 参数编译程序
C、一般用于测试阶段,生产环境下 gdb 会有副作用:使程序运行减慢,运行不够稳定,等等。
D、即使在测试阶段,如果程序过于复杂,gdb 也不能处理。
上面有提到段错误触发SIGSEGV信号,通过man 7 signal,可以看到SIGSEGV默认的处理程序(handler)会打印段错误信息,并产生 core 文件,由此我们可以借助于程序异常退出生成的 core 文件中的调试信息,使用 gdb 工具来调试程序中的段错误。
A、在一些Linux版本下,默认是不产生 core 文件的,首先可以查看一下系统 core 文件的大小限制:
root@# ulimit -c
0
B、可以看到默认设置情况下,本机Linux环境下发生段错误不会自动生成 core 文件,下面设置下 core 文件的大小限制(单位为KB)
root@# ulimit -c 1024
root@# ulimit -c
1024
C、运行程序,发生段错误生成的 core 文件
root@# ./a.out
段错误 (核心已转储)
D、加载 core 文件,使用 gdb 工具进行调试
root@ubuntu:/home/tarena/project/c_test# gdb a.out core
GNU gdb (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.4-2012.02-0ubuntu2) 7.4-2012.02

6 *ptr = 10;
(gdb)
从输出看出,可以显示出异样的段错误信息
E、完成调试后,输入 q 命令退出 gdb
(gdb) q
A、适合于在实际生成环境下调试程度的段错误(即在不用重新发生段错误的情况下重现段错误)
B、当程序很复杂,core 文件相当大时,该方法不可用
A、使用 dmesg 命令,找到最近发生的段错误输入信息
root@# dmesg
[ 372.350652] a.out[2712]: segfault at 0 ip 080483c4 sp bfd1f7b8 error 6 in a.out[8048000+1000]
其中,对我们接下来的调试过程有用的是发生段错误的地址 0 和指令指针地址 080483c4。
有时候,“地址引起的错”可以告诉你问题的根源。看到上面的例子,我们可以说,int *ptr = NULL; *ptr = 10;,创建了一个空指针,然后试图访问它的值(读值)。
B、使用 objdump 生成二进制的相关信息,重定向到文件中
root@# objdump -d a.out > a.outDump
root@# ls
a.out a.outDump core test.c
其中,生成的 a.outDump 文件中包含了二进制文件的 a.out 的汇编代码
C、在 a.outDump 文件中查找发生段错误的地址
root@ubuntu:/home/tarena/project/c_test# grep -n -A 10 -B 10 "0" a.outDump
1-
2-a.out: file format elf32-i386
118:080483b4 :

124: 80483c4: c7 00 0a 00 00 00 movl $0xa,(%eax)
125: 80483ca: b8 00 00 00 00 mov $0x0,%eax
126: 80483cf: c9 leave

140: 80483dd: 90 nop
141: 80483de: 90 nop
142: 80483df: 90 nop
通过对以上汇编代码分析,得知段错误发生main函数,对应的汇编指令是movl $0xa,(%eax),接下来打开程序的源码,找到汇编指令对应的源码,也就定位到段错误了。
A、不需要 -g 参数编译,不需要借助于core文件,但需要有一定的汇编语言基础。
B、如果使用 gcc 编译优化参数(-O1,-O2,-O3)的话,生成的汇编指令将会被优化,使得调试过程有些难度。
catchsegv 命令专门用来补货段错误,它通过动态加载器(ld-linux.so)的预加载机制(PRELOAD)把一个事先写好的 库(/lib/libSegFault.so)加载上,用于捕捉段错误的出错信息。
root@t# catchsegv ./a.out

#valgrind -h
usage: valgrind [options] prog-and-args
tool-selection option, with default in [ ]:
--tool= use the Valgrind tool named [memcheck]
basic user options for all Valgrind tools, with defaults in [ ]:
-h --help show this message
--help-debug show this message, plus debugging options
--version show version
-q --quiet run silently; only print error msgs
-v --verbose be more verbose -- show misc extra info
--trace-children=no|yes Valgrind-ise child processes (follow execve)? [no]
--trace-children-skip=patt1,patt2,... specifies a list of executables
that --trace-children=yes should not trace into
--trace-children-skip-by-arg=patt1,patt2,... same as --trace-children-skip=
but check the argv[] entries for children, rather
than the exe name, to make a follow/no-follow decision
--child-silent-after-fork=no|yes omit child output between fork & exec? [no]
--vgdb=no|yes|full activate gdbserver? [yes]
full is slower but provides precise watchpoint/step
--vgdb-error= invoke gdbserver after errors [999999999]
to get started quickly, use --vgdb-error=0
and follow the on-screen directions

startup exit valgrindabexit all none

--redzone-size= set minimum size of redzones added before/after
heap blocks (in bytes). [16]
--xtree-memory=none|allocs|full profile heap memory in an xtree [none]

size/blocks, full: profile current and cumulative
allocated size/blocks and freed size/blocks.

uncommon user options for all Valgrind tools:
--fullpath-after= (with nothing after the '=')
show full source paths in call stacks

part of the path after 'string'. Allows removal
of path prefixes. Use this flag multiple times
to specify a set of prefixes to remove.

debug symbols, in addition to existing default
well known search paths.

1)出现段错误时,首先应该想到段错误的定义,从它出发考虑引发错误的原因。
2)在使用指针时,定义了指针后记得初始化指针,在使用的时候记得判断是否为 NULL
3)在使用数组时,注意数组是否被初始化,数组下标是否越界,数组元素是否存在等
4)在访问变量,注意变量所占地址空间是否已经被程序释放掉
5)在处理变量时,注意变量的格式控制是否合理等
