gdb backtrace from a firefox dumped core (2.65 KB, text/plain)

Description Michal Jaegermann 2007-06-17 00:10:13 UTC
Description of problem:

I found two cores on my system.  One 92Megs and another 87Megs.
Checking with gdb they were produced this way:

warning: Lowest section in system-supplied DSO at 0xffffe000 is .hash at ffffe0b4
Core was generated by `/usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.4/firefox-bin'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

but there are fingerprints of nsprpub/pr/src/pthreads/ptthread.c
and apparently of calls to java in that trace.

A trace obtained after installing firefox-debuginfo and nspr-debuginfo
is attached.

The highest frame I can list is 21 and this looks like that:

(gdb) f 21
#21 0xf702e60c in xpc_ThreadDataDtorCB (ptr=0x80ed518)
    at xpcthreadcontext.cpp:451
451             delete data;
Current language:  auto; currently c++
(gdb) list
446     PR_STATIC_CALLBACK(void)
447     xpc_ThreadDataDtorCB(void* ptr)
448     {
449         XPCPerThreadData* data = (XPCPerThreadData*) ptr;
450         if(data)
451             delete data;
452     }
453
454     void XPCPerThreadData::MarkAutoRootsBeforeJSFinalize(JSContext* cx)
455     {

with 'ptr' as '(void *) 0x80ed518' and '*(XPCPerThreadData*) ptr'
coming out as:

(gdb) p *(XPCPerThreadData*) ptr
$3 = {mJSContextStack = 0x8112be8, mNextThread = 0x0, mCallContext = 0x0,
  mResolveName = 0, mResolvingWrapper = 0x0, mMostRecentJSContext = 0x9ff5368,
  mMostRecentXPCContext = 0x8455ce8, mExceptionManager = 0x0,
  mException = 0x0, mExceptionManagerNotAvailable = 0, mAutoRoots = 0x0,
  mStackLimit = 4288968920, static gLock = 0x8115830,
  static gThreads = 0x80ed518, static gTLSIndex = 2}

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-2.0.0.4-2.fc7.i386
This is i386 binary running on x86_64 machine.

How reproducible:
Not really sure but traces from both cores are really the same.

This looks like a dupe of bug 242370...

I agree this is a duplicate of 242370

Also, running pidgin repeatedly, I got this on one of the runs:

Dammit, my apologies; I was trying to paste that into bug 390901.  (I have too
many Bugzilla windows open today...)
