我使用GCC编译器在Linux上工作。当我的c++程序崩溃时,我希望它自动生成一个堆栈跟踪。
我的程序由许多不同的用户运行,它也可以在Linux、Windows和Macintosh上运行(所有版本都使用gcc编译)。
我希望我的程序能够在崩溃时生成堆栈跟踪,下次用户运行它时,它会问他们是否可以将堆栈跟踪发送给我,这样我就可以跟踪到问题。我可以处理发送信息给我,但我不知道如何生成跟踪字符串。什么好主意吗?

You are probably not going to like this - all I can say in its favour is that it works for me, and I have similar but not identical requirements: I am writing a compiler/transpiler for a 1970's Algol-like language which uses C as it's output and then compiles the C so that as far as the user is concerned, they're generally not aware of C being involved, so although you might call it a transpiler, it's effectively a compiler that uses C as it's intermediate code. The language being compiled has a history of providing good diagnostics and a full backtrace in the original native compilers. I've been able to find gcc compiler flags and libraries etc that allow me to trap most of the runtime errors that the original compilers did (although with one glaring exception - unassigned variable trapping). When a runtime error occurs (eg arithmetic overflow, divide by zero, array index out of bounds, etc) the original compilers output a backtrace to the console listing all variables in the stack frames of every active procedure call. I struggled to get this effect in C, but eventually did so with what can only be described as a hack... When the program is invoked, the wrapper that supplies the C "main" looks at its argv, and if a special option is not present, it restarts itself under gdb with an altered argv containing both gdb options and the 'magic' option string for the program itself. This restarted version then hides those strings from the user's code by restoring the original arguments before calling the main block of the code written in our language. When an error occurs (as long as it is not one explicitly trapped within the program by user code), it exits to gdb which prints the required backtrace.
启动序列中的关键代码行包括:
if ((argc >= 1) && (strcmp(origargv[argc-1], "--restarting-under-gdb")) != 0) {
// initial invocation
// the "--restarting-under-gdb" option is how the copy running under gdb knows
// not to start another gdb process.
and
char *gdb [] = {
"/usr/bin/gdb", "-q", "-batch", "-nx", "-nh", "-return-child-result",
"-ex", "run",
"-ex", "bt full",
"--args"
};
The original arguments are appended to the gdb options above. That should be enough of a hint for you to do something similar for your own system. I did look at other library-supported backtrace options (eg libbacktrace, https://codingrelic.geekhold.com/2010/09/gcc-function-instrumentation.html, etc) but they only output the procedure call stack, not the local variables. However if anyone knows of any cleaner mechanism to get a similar effect, do please let us know. The main downside to this is that the variables are printed in C syntax, not the syntax of the language the user writes in. And (until I add suitable #line directives on every generated line of C :-() the backtrace lists the C source file and line numbers.

使用-rdynamic的问题是,在某些情况下,它会相对显著地增加二进制文件的大小
我可以帮助Linux版本:函数backtrace, backtrace_symbols和backtrace_symbols_fd可以使用。请参见相应的手册。
忘记改变你的源代码,用backtrace()函数或宏来做一些hack -这些只是糟糕的解决方案。
作为一个有效的解决方案,我的建议是:
用"-g"标志编译程序,用于将调试符号嵌入二进制(不用担心,这不会影响您的性能)。 在linux上运行下一个命令:"ulimit -c unlimited" -允许系统进行大崩溃转储。 当你的程序崩溃时,在工作目录中你会看到文件“core”。 gdb -batch -ex "backtrace" ./your_program_exe ./core . exe .执行下一个命令,将backtrace输出到标准输出
这将以人类可读的方式(包含源文件名和行号)打印程序的正确可读回溯。 此外,这种方法将给你自由自动化你的系统: 编写一个简短的脚本,检查进程是否创建了核心转储,然后通过电子邮件向开发人员发送回溯信息,或将其记录到一些日志系统中。
除了上面的答案,这里还介绍了如何让Debian Linux操作系统生成核心转储
Create a “coredumps” folder in the user's home folder Go to /etc/security/limits.conf. Below the ' ' line, type “ soft core unlimited”, and “root soft core unlimited” if enabling core dumps for root, to allow unlimited space for core dumps. NOTE: “* soft core unlimited” does not cover root, which is why root has to be specified in its own line. To check these values, log out, log back in, and type “ulimit -a”. “Core file size” should be set to unlimited. Check the .bashrc files (user, and root if applicable) to make sure that ulimit is not set there. Otherwise, the value above will be overwritten on startup. Open /etc/sysctl.conf. Enter the following at the bottom: “kernel.core_pattern = /home//coredumps/%e_%t.dump”. (%e will be the process name, and %t will be the system time) Exit and type “sysctl -p” to load the new configuration Check /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern and verify that this matches what you just typed in. Core dumping can be tested by running a process on the command line (“ &”), and then killing it with “kill -11 ”. If core dumping is successful, you will see “(core dumped)” after the segmentation fault indication.
作为一种仅适用于Windows的解决方案,您可以使用Windows错误报告(Error Reporting)获得相当于堆栈跟踪的信息(包含多得多的信息)。只需几个注册表项,就可以设置为收集用户模式转储:
从Windows Server 2008和Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 (SP1)开始,可以配置Windows错误报告(WER),以便在用户模式应用程序崩溃后收集完整的用户模式转储并存储在本地。[…] 默认情况下不启用此特性。启用该特性需要管理员权限。要启用和配置该功能,请在HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps键下使用以下注册表值。
您可以从具有所需权限的安装程序中设置注册表项。
创建用户模式转储比在客户端生成堆栈跟踪有以下优点:
It's already implemented in the system. You can either use WER as outlined above, or call MiniDumpWriteDump yourself, if you need more fine-grained control over the amount of information to dump. (Make sure to call it from a different process.) Way more complete than a stack trace. Among others it can contain local variables, function arguments, stacks for other threads, loaded modules, and so on. The amount of data (and consequently size) is highly customizable. No need to ship debug symbols. This both drastically decreases the size of your deployment, as well as makes it harder to reverse-engineer your application. Largely independent of the compiler you use. Using WER does not even require any code. Either way, having a way to get a symbol database (PDB) is very useful for offline analysis. I believe GCC can either generate PDB's, or there are tools to convert the symbol database to the PDB format.
请注意,WER只能由应用程序崩溃触发(即系统由于未处理的异常而终止进程)。MiniDumpWriteDump可以在任何时候调用。如果您需要转储当前状态以诊断崩溃以外的问题,这可能会很有帮助。
