My understanding is that symbolization code symbolizes "pc-1" as well. If we keep symbolization code unchanged and only change printed hex value, this will probly cause offline symbolizer to behave differently from internal symbolizer. Actually the situation is even more interesting: on ARM we do pc & (~1) (not pc-1) to cancel out Thumb bit. >>>> On Thursday, April 20, 2017 at 12:01:25 PM UTC+3, Dmitry Vyukov wrote: >>>>> >>>>> On Thu, Apr 20, 2017 at 10:44 AM, evgeny777 <evgeny....@gmail.com> wrote: >>>>> > I noticed that GetPreviousInstructionPc() function returns 'pc - 1' for >>>>> > both >>>>> > arm32 and arm64. >>>>> > This causes odd addresses to appear in stack traces, which is nonsense, >>>>> > as >>>>> > both arm32/64 instructions >>>>> > have 4 byte size and alignment. >>>>> > >>>>> > The x86 and x86_64 cases are even more confusing, because instruction >>>>> > length >>>>> > is not constant.
