数组分配内存过大导致SIGSEGV信号(段错误)

一、背景

今天codding的时候,发现一个段错误。

-> % ./a.out 9000000
the size is: 0x895440
[2]    10558 segmentation fault (core dumped)  ./a.out 9000000

打印跟了一下程序,段错误发生在定义数组的时候,感觉程序没毛病,就使用gdb跟了一下,效果如下:

(gdb) r 2304098328304234802342
Starting program: /home/signal/a.out 2304098328304234802342
the size is: 0x7fffffff

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x08048512 in main (argc=2, argv=0xbffff634) at sigsegv.c:15
15      bzero(test, sizeof(test));
(gdb) s

Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
The program no longer exists.
(gdb) quit

于是就专门测试了一下这个信号:SIGSEGV

二、定位问题

1. 测试程序

大概知道了是数组分配的内存太大引起的,就顺手写了个测试程序,如下:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int size;

    if (argc != 2) {
        printf("Usage: %s [size]\n", argv[0]);
        return -1;
    }
    size = atoi(argv[1]);
    printf("the size is: 0x%x\n", size);
    char test[size];
    bzero(test, sizeof(test));

    return 0;
}

执行结果如下:

-> % ./a.out 9000000
the size is: 0x895440
[2]    10558 segmentation fault (core dumped)  ./a.out 9000000

-> % ./a.out 8000000
the size is: 0x7a1200

可见,当分配的内存大于一定值时,就会出现段错误。

2. gdb调试core文件

使用gdb调试时,打印的错误信息如前所述,

设置ulimit -c 参数,程序运行错误时会生成core文件,使用gdb调试,如下:

-> % gdb -c core ./a.out

3. strace调试系统调用

使用strace跟踪系统调用,打印如下:

-> % strace ./a.out 9000000
execve("./a.out", ["./a.out", "9000000"], [/* 63 vars */]) = 0
brk(0)                                  = 0x8156000

fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=90693, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 90693, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0xb773b000
close(3)                                = 0
access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK)      = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
read(3, "\177ELF\1\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0\3\0\1\0\0\0\340\233\1\0004\0\0\0"..., 512) = 512
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=1754876, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 1759868, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_DENYWRITE, 3, 0) = 0xb758d000
mmap2(0xb7735000, 12288, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_DENYWRITE, 3, 0x1a8000) = 0xb7735000
mmap2(0xb7738000, 10876, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb7738000

mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb758c000
set_thread_area({entry_number:-1 -> 6, base_addr:0xb758c940, limit:1048575, seg_32bit:1, contents:0, read_exec_only:0, limit_in_pages:1, seg_not_present:0, useable:1}) = 0
mprotect(0xb7735000, 8192, PROT_READ)   = 0
mprotect(0x8049000, 4096, PROT_READ)    = 0
mprotect(0xb7778000, 4096, PROT_READ)   = 0
munmap(0xb773b000, 90693)               = 0
fstat64(1, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 10), ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb7751000
write(1, "1the size is: 0x895440\n", 231the size is: 0x895440
) = 23
--- SIGSEGV {si_signo=SIGSEGV, si_code=SEGV_MAPERR, si_addr=0xbf35fc54} ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV (core dumped) +++
[2]    11100 segmentation fault (core dumped)  strace ./a.out 9000000

由此可知,大概也就这个问题了。

三、分析与解决

SIGSEGV:指示进程进行了一次无效的内存引用(通常说明程序有错,若访问了一个未经初始化的指针)。名字SEGV代表“段违例”(segmentation violation).
SIGSEGV的默认动作是终止+core

—— 《UNIX环境高级编程》

对于不正确的内存处理,计算机程序可能抛出SIGSEGV。操作系统可能使用信号栈向一个处于自然状态的应用程序通告错误,在一个程序接收到SIGSEGV时的默认动作是异常终止。这个动作也许会结束进程,但是可能生成一个核心文件以帮助调试。

SIGSEGV可以被捕获。也就是说,应用程序可以请求它们想要的动作,以替代默认发生的动作。这样的动作可以是忽略它、调用一个函数,或恢复默认的动作。在一些情形下,忽略SIGSEGV导致未定义的行为。

在以后调试过程中,如果再遇到SIGSEGV信号导致的段错误,就要仔细检查程序中内存的使用,避免内存的非法引用。
