What happens if you directly attach in gdb and manually enter the commands that pyrasite would run? At what exact point does it fail? What is the backtrace at that point? $ gdb -p 1416 GNU gdb (GDB) Fedora (7.4.50.20120120-31.fc18) 0x004e3416 in __kernel_vsyscall () (gdb) call PyGILState_Ensure() Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x49036d17 in PyGILState_Ensure () at /usr/src/debug/Python-2.7.2/Python/pystate.c:634 634 } The program being debugged was signaled while in a function called from GDB. GDB remains in the frame where the signal was received. To change this behavior use "set unwindonsignal on". Evaluation of the expression containing the function (PyGILState_Ensure) will be abandoned. When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.

Note: this appears to be really an issue with pyrasite; the "Component" field should be changed once pyrasite is in Fedora. I am unable to reproduce this issue with a F18 i686 guest. Closing. |
Description of problem: After upgrading to F17, my code injection tool 'pyrasite' now causes python to segfault. Downgrading to F16's gdb resolves this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdb-7.4.50.20120120-32.fc17 Steps to Reproduce: Run 'python -v' in a different window. git clone git://github.com/lmacken/pyrasite.git cd pyrasite python -m pyrasite.main $(pgrep -f "python -v") pyrasite/payloads/helloworld.py Actual results: [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1". 0x00dd7416 in __kernel_vsyscall () Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x49036d17 in PyGILState_Ensure () at /usr/src/debug/Python-2.7.2/Python/pystate.c:634 634 } Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x48d473b4 in malloc () from /lib/libc.so.6 Expected results: 'python -v' interpreter should print "Hello World" Additional info: Under the hood, pyrasite is attaching to the process and running these commands in gdb: PyGILState_Ensure() PyRun_SimpleString("import sys; sys.path.insert(0, \\"/home/lmacken/code/github.com/pyrasite/pyrasite/payloads\\"); sys.path.insert(0, \\"/home/lmacken/code/github.com/pyrasite\\"); exec(open(\\"/home/lmacken/code/github.com/pyrasite/pyrasite/payloads/helloworld.py\\").read())") PyGILState_Release($1)
