Re: [DynInst_API:] Segmentation fault error with dyninst 10.1

[Abdullah Al-Mamun <aalmamun@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Here is all the information you asked for:

Intel compiler:Âintel/18.0.1.163Â

Command to build Dyninst:

step 1: mkdir build

step 2: cd build

step 3: cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../install -DBoost_ROOT_DIR=/global/u2/a/aalmamun/boost_1_67_0 -DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR=/global/u2/a/aalmamun/boost_1_67_0 -DLibElf_ROOT_DIR=../../elfutils -DTBB_ROOT_DIR=/opt/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2018.1.163/linux/tbb -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON

step 4: make && make install

Example used: https://github.com/dyninst/dyninst/tree/master/dyninstAPI/docÂ(In the pdf document, at page 67, section: 1.1 (first example in appendix)

I tried this example to instrument a very simple hello function (attached in this mail)

I see. Thanks!

Can you tell us the specific intel compiler version, and your specific command for building Dyninst and the example? We will try to reproduce your problem.Â

HiÂXiaozhu,

Thank you so much for your response.

I just ran the gdb with the example executable (a.out), which is basically the first example shown on Appendix of the Dyninst-10.1 docÂand found the following error (attached with this email).

I also attached the screenshot of the example code that I used from the dyninst-10.1 doc.

I get segmentation fault error when I compile the example.

Do you really mean you get a segfault when you compile the example?

If you encountered a segfault when you "run" the executable, can you use GDB to collect a stack trace?Â

I am trying to instrument a very simple hello.cc file that has a simple function named "hello" which just prints "hello world".Â

Could you please point any direction to get rid of this error?

I am using dyninst 10.1 with boost 1.67.

Any kind of help isÂappreciated.
