strcmp core dumps

hi everyone, Right now when I do: strcmp(s1, s2); i get a core dump because at times s1 or s2 can be nothing so that makes strcmp() core dump. What is the solution, if at times I expect one of them (or both) to be NULL? I want to be able to compare that s1 is NULL and s2 is "blah" or...

Using GDB to analyse different CORE dumps

Hi, Can we modify the GDB source code so as to analyze core dumps from different targets? From my analysis, I think we need to build our section table statically for each target. i.e., including the various address boundaries in build_section_table() function. If this is the case, then the GDB...

AIX core dumps

My program is not dumping core when hitting a segmentation violation inside a thread. However, it dumps core when the segv occurs within main. Any ideas on how to diagnose this? AIX 5.3

core dumps

i had a situation where a process was defunct. preap would not reap the process and gcore would not work properly (not sure why). therefore, the suggestion was to force a panic and collect the core dump. obviously you could do a savecore -L and capture the dump without bringing down the system....

Stack only core dumps

I'm working on a program in Linux with a group of people scattered around the country. When we have a crash, I like to send a core dump to the appropriate person so that they can understand the problem better. The problem is that our application uses several gigabytes worth of data and these...

Generate core dumps

kill -SEGV <pid> gives me the core file for that process but also terminates the process. Can I not get the core dump without terminating the process ?

NAME

       sm2file - shared-memory linked list data extraction test program

SYNOPSIS

       sm2file

DESCRIPTION

       sm2file stress-tests shared-memory linked list data extraction by retrieving and deleting all text file lines inserted into a shared-memory
       linked list that is the root object of a PSM partition named "file2sm".

       The operation of sm2file echoes the cyclical operation of file2sm: the EOF lines inserted into the linked list by file2sm punctuate the
       writing of files that are copies of file2sm's original source text file.  The name of each file written by sm2file is file_copy_cycleNbr,
       where cycleNbr is, in effect, the count of EOF lines encountered in the linked list up to the point at which the writing of this file
       began.

       sm2file may catch up with the data ingestion activity of file2sm, in which case it blocks (taking the file2sm test semaphore) until the
       linked list is no longer empty.

EXIT STATUS

       0   sm2file has terminated.

FILES

       No configuration files are needed.

ENVIRONMENT

       No environment variables apply.

DIAGNOSTICS

       can't attach to shared memory
	   Operating system error.  Check errtext, correct problem, and rerun.

       Can't manage shared memory.
	   PSM error.  Check for earlier diagnostics describing the cause of the error; correct problem and rerun.

       Can't create shared memory list.
	   PSM error.  Check for earlier diagnostics describing the cause of the error; correct problem and rerun.

       Can't create semaphore.
	   ION system error.  Check for earlier diagnostics describing the cause of the error; correct problem and rerun.

       Can't open output file
	   Operating system error.  Check errtext, correct problem, and rerun.

       can't write to output file
	   Operating system error.  Check errtext, correct problem, and rerun.
