Show C backtrace appropriately at core dump for GCC 8 or later
When ruby is compiled by GCC 8 or later, some frames of C level backtrace information lacks. ``` $ ./miniruby -e '1.times { Process.kill(:SEGV, $$) }' ... -- C level backtrace information ------------------------------------------- /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_vm_bugreport+0x611) [0x558a5fdcbc21] ../ruby/vm_dump.c:758 [0x558a5fbc789a] /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(sigsegv+0x4d) [0x558a5fd1eaed] ../ruby/signal.c:959 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0(__restore_rt+0x0) [0x7f687e6713c0] /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(kill+0xb) [0x7f687e31355b] ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S:78 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_f_kill+0x350) [0x558a5fd1fe60] ../ruby/signal.c:480 [0x558a5fda50d3] [0x558a5fdb085c] [0x558a5fdb0fe7] [0x558a5fdbae1a] [0x558a5fdaf484] /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_yield_1+0x29f) [0x558a5fdb2fbf] ../ruby/vm.c:1265 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(int_dotimes+0x5c) [0x558a5fc72f2c] ../ruby/numeric.c:5198 [0x558a5fda50d3] [0x558a5fdb085c] [0x558a5fdb0fe7] [0x558a5fdbaf21] [0x558a5fdaf484] /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_ec_exec_node+0xed) [0x558a5fbcc4fd] ../ruby/eval.c:317 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(ruby_run_node+0x4f) [0x558a5fbd110f] ../ruby/eval.c:375 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(main+0x73) [0x558a5fb2c083] ../ruby/main.c:50 ``` By this one-line change, it shows all locations. ``` $ ./miniruby -e '1.times { Process.kill(:SEGV, $$) }' ... -- C level backtrace information ------------------------------------------- /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_print_backtrace+0x11) [0x558247adec21] ../ruby/vm_dump.c:758 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_vm_bugreport) ../ruby/vm_dump.c:956 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_bug_for_fatal_signal+0x15a) [0x5582478da89a] ../ruby/error.c:773 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(sigsegv+0x4d) [0x558247a31aed] ../ruby/signal.c:959 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0(__restore_rt+0x0) [0x7f82202f73c0] /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(kill+0xb) [0x7f821ff9955b] ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S:78 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_f_kill+0x350) [0x558247a32e60] ../ruby/signal.c:480 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_call_cfunc_with_frame+0x123) [0x558247ab80d3] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:2821 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_call_method_each_type+0x7c) [0x558247ac385c] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:3324 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_call_method+0xc7) [0x558247ac3fe7] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:3428 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_sendish+0x14) [0x558247acde1a] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:4412 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_exec_core) ../ruby/insns.def:789 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_vm_exec+0x1a4) [0x558247ac2484] ../ruby/vm.c:2165 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_yield_1+0x29f) [0x558247ac5fbf] ../ruby/vm.c:1265 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(int_dotimes+0x5c) [0x558247985f2c] ../ruby/numeric.c:5198 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_call_cfunc_with_frame+0x123) [0x558247ab80d3] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:2821 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_call_method_each_type+0x7c) [0x558247ac385c] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:3324 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_call_method+0xc7) [0x558247ac3fe7] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:3428 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_sendish+0x14) [0x558247acdf21] ../ruby/vm_insnhelper.c:4412 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(vm_exec_core) ../ruby/insns.def:770 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_vm_exec+0x1a4) [0x558247ac2484] ../ruby/vm.c:2165 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(rb_ec_exec_node+0xed) [0x5582478df4fd] ../ruby/eval.c:317 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(ruby_run_node+0x4f) [0x5582478e410f] ../ruby/eval.c:375 /home/mame/work/ruby-gcc-9/miniruby(main+0x73) [0x55824783f083] ../ruby/main.c:50 ``` Details: In short, it is an uninitialized variable bug. Until GCC 7, all function locations are represented by a pair of DW_AT_low_pc and DW_AT_high_pc in DWARF information. But since GCC 8, some functions are split to multiple chunks, which are represented by DW_AT_ranges. DW_AT_ranges are represented as offsets from a base address. According to DWARF specification, it is the base address of the compilation unit, but GCC seems to use zero as default. The function "di_read_cu" in addr2line.c had a comment about the fact. However, the base address wasn't initialized as zero.
