Hi,
I'm working on a large parallel fortran application which give
(sometime) a segfault. When this error occurs I would like to backtrace
the call stack to know where it takes place but I'm unable to get this
information, no more than a list of memory addresses. I've build a small
test-case (with an error in array dimension creating a segmentation
fault in a subroutine ) to investigate gfortran/gcc options.
With gcc version 4.8.2 using options "-g -fbacktrace -gdwarf-3" I get
./plante
Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory
reference.
Backtrace for this error:
#0 0x7F99F71A9AC7
#1 0x7F99F71AA0CE
#2 0x7F99F67A9B2F
Segmentation fault
but addr2line -e ./plante 0x7F99F71AA0CE
returns: ??:0
What have I missed ?
Hard to say. I have the same problem with a (far smaller) program of
our weather forecasting suite. Compiled with gfortran 4.9 and linked
against the OpenMPI libraries, I get this:
Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory
reference.
Backtrace for this error:

mpirun noticed that process rank 0 with PID 27638 on node
super.moene.org exited on signal 11 (Segmentation fault).

which looks reasonable to me. Perhaps the earlier addresses are simply
within the OpenMPI library routines. The error most certainly isn't
there, but what you passed as arguments to it.
Kind regards,
