Trying to read from an illegal memory location will cause this fault. i.e.

1. If you fopen a file, it fails and the file pointer returned is NULL and you try to read from that file pointer. This will give you a segmentation fault.

pfm_enable_faults(3ncs) 												   pfm_enable_faults(3ncs)

Name
       pfm_enable_faults - enable asynchronous faults

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/base.h>
       #include <idl/c/pfm.h>

       void pfm_$enable_faults()

Description
       The routine enables asynchronous faults after they have been inhibited by a call to causes the operating system to pass asynchronous faults
       on to the calling process.

       While faults are inhibited, the operating system holds at most one asynchronous fault.  Consequently, when returns, there can  be  at  most
       one  fault waiting on the process.  If more than one fault was received between routines to and the process receives the first asynchronous
       fault received while faults were inhibited.

Diagnostics
       This section lists the status codes for errors returned by this routine.

       pfm_$bad_rls_order  Attempted to release a clean-up handler out of order.

       pfm_$cleanup_not_found
			   There is no pending clean-up handler.

       pfm_$cleanup_set    A clean-up handler was established successfully.

       pfm_$cleanup_set_signalled
			   Attempted to use pfm_$cleanup_set as a signal.

       pfm_$invalid_cleanup_rec
			   Passed an invalid clean-up record to a routine.

       pfm_$no_space	   Cannot allocate storage for a clean-up handler.
