How to translate kernel's trap divide error rsp:2b6d2ea40450 to a source location?

问题

Customer reported an error in one of our programs caused by division by zero. We have only this VLM line:

kernel: myprog[16122] trap divide error rip:79dd99 rsp:2b6d2ea40450 error:0

I do not believe there is core file for that.

I searched through the Internet to find how I can tell the line of the program that caused this division by zero, but so far I am failing.

I understand that 16122 is pid of the program, so that will not help me.

I suspect that rsp:2b6d2ea40450 has something to do with the address of the line that caused the error (0x2b6d2ea40450) but is that true?

If it is then how can I translate it to a physical approximate location in the source assuming I can load debug version of myprog into gdb, and then request to show the context around this address...

Any, any help will be greatly appreciated!

回答1:

rip is the instruction pointer, rsp is the stack pointer. The stack pointer is not too useful unless you have a core image or a running process.

You can use either addr2line or the disassemble command in gdb to see the line that got the error, based on the ip.

$ cat divtest.c
main()
{
    int a, b;

    a = 1; b = a/0;
}

$ ./divtest
Floating point exception (core dumped)
$ dmesg|tail -1

$ addr2line -e divtest 400504
./divtest.c:5

$ gdb divtest

End of assembler dump.
