SIGSEGV is a bad memory reference, but none of those URLs gives any info
about the memory reference itself: the address, the size, Read/Write/Execute,
the program counter value, the contents of the instruction stream.
The pastebin info is useful after that, but knowing the SIGSEGV info comes first.
The minimum info for a SIGSEGV report is:
(gdb) thread <N> # focus on the faulting thread
(gdb) info reg # display all machine registers
(gdb) x/5i $pc # the faulting and following instructions
(gdb) x/12i $pc-0x20 # probable previous instructions (heuristic for x86*)
Thanks for the pointers I just wish I understood it more...
Thanks,
Richard
