Hi Paul
Have you tried mdb? We have our own debug data format called CTF and
depending on how you compiled your file the DWARF data may be stripped
from the binary.
If you want a stacktrace from mdb you can type ::stack
For more detailed usage of mdb check the manpage or ask on #illumos IRC
or any illumos mailinglist. There are not many illumos devs here on this
list and I have never used gdb. Only ever mdb.
Greetings

Hi
I'm working on an issue related to an exe opening its own binary file
with flags like O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC. Any writing is going to be
bad, and truncation even worse.
On FreeBSD and Linux this is not allowed. 'open' will fail and set errno
to ETXTBSY.
I haven't yet tried this on Solaris. My testcase just opens and
truncates the exe and core dumps on the first call to open.
Under gdb I get
Dwarf Error: wrong version in compilation unit header (is 0, should be
2, 3, 4 or 5) [in module /export/home/paulf/scratch/valgrind/memcheck/
tests/solaris/open_client]
I guess that;s because it's failing to rread the Dwarf from the 0 byte
file.
Here is my testcase, works fine on FreeBSD
// For Bug 505673
// Valgrind crashes with an internal error and SIGBUS when the guest
tries to open its own file with O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <cerrno>
#include <stdexcept>
#include <vector>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
std::vector<int> flags{O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR};
// On FreeBSD libc open uses syscall openat (at least on 14.2)
for (auto f : flags)
{
int res = open(argv[0], f, 0666);
if (-1 != res)
{
throw std::runtime_error("open should have failed");
}
else
{
if (errno != ETXTBSY)
{
throw std::runtime_error("errno should be ETXTBSY");
}
}
}
// repeat the above, but with syscall(SYS_OPEN
for (auto f : flags)
{
int res = syscall(SYS_open, argv[0], f, 0666);
if (-1 != res)
{
throw std::runtime_error("open should have failed");
}
else
{
if (errno != ETXTBSY)
{
throw std::runtime_error("errno should be ETXTBSY");
}
}
}
chdir("..");
// check that relative paths work
for (auto f : flags)
{
int res = open("solaris/open_client", f, 0666);
if (-1 != res)
{
throw std::runtime_error("open should have failed");
}
else
{
if (errno != ETXTBSY)
{
throw std::runtime_error("errno should be ETXTBSY");
}
}
}
for (auto f : flags)
{
int res = syscall(SYS_open, "solaris/open_client", f, 0666);
if (-1 != res)
{
throw std::runtime_error("open should have failed");
}
else
{
if (errno != ETXTBSY)
